Loose Ends - Loyle Carner

[00:00.25]In love, when the going is tough
[00:05.63]I wait till it falls on deaf ears
[00:11.46]Hearsay, without the boundaries of love
[00:16.04]My take is, I wish there was a better way
[00:21.03]Uh, I got a lot of love, a lot of loose ends
[00:23.73]A lot of people that I wish I knew then
[00:26.26]Friends beckon and every second you spend
[00:28.97]Wetting the pen, every letter you send
[00:31.68]Uh, I got a lot of love, a lot of loose ends
[00:34.22]A lot of people that I wish I knew then
[00:36.78]Friends beckon and every second you spend
[00:39.34]Wetting the pen, every letter you send
[00:41.77]Yo, I been listening to Dreamy Days
[00:43.07]Uh, in disarray
[00:45.03]I realise it's everybody else who's still astray
[00:47.80]I feel ashamed, I know there ain't no saving away
[00:50.16]They went astray, I went Australia
[00:51.96]So what I'm supposed to say to them?
[00:53.38]Uh, when all this love's out of range
[00:55.19]Everything around me changed, I'm supposed to stay the same
[00:57.63]Turned down these free drinks I couldn't even name
[01:00.52]And that, like all this money isn't ******* up my brain
[01:03.13]I been going insane, shelf of a family remains
[01:06.29]Broken hearted, seeing none of them again, uh
[01:08.74]I pour a glass, stick my head out in the rain
[01:11.04]Try and find another person I can blame
[01:13.00]Sat up on this plane, uh
[01:14.76]And yo, I'm praying that we don't crash
[01:16.54]'Cause every night, I shiver at the sight when we go back
[01:19.12]'Cause every night could be my last, and yeah I know that
[01:21.93]So, I crack a smile 'fore it goes black, trust
[01:24.64]In love, when the going is tough
[01:29.84]I wait till it falls on deaf ears
[01:35.60]Hearsay, without the boundaries of love
[01:40.19]My take is, I wish there was a better way
[01:45.81]Uh, I got a lot of love, a lot of loose ends
[01:47.68]A lot of people that I wish I knew then
[01:50.66]Friends beckon and every second you spend
[01:53.25]Wetting the pen, every letter you send
[01:55.96]Uh, I got a lot of love, a lot of loose ends
[01:58.49]A lot of people that I wish I knew then
[02:01.10]Friends beckon and every second you spend
[02:03.71]Wetting the pen, every letter you send
[02:06.70]Uh, I wish you'd been there when my dad had died
[02:09.34]Uh, I wish you'd been there when my mother cried
[02:12.12]Uh, I wish you'd been there in the drag of night
[02:14.64]To see my side, look me in my eyes when I was paralysed
[02:17.29]And tell me everything's alright and push it to the side
[02:19.76]It's just a sacrifice, at times, I told a bag of lies
[02:22.47]But not a pack of lies, we always told a couple ones
[02:25.15]Of course it was true, you only knew me from the drama ties
[02:27.82]I feel an agonising risk, 'cause in a thousand
[02:30.46]This is where I really wanna be when we were cracking wise
[02:33.08]'Cause it was black and white, literally black and white
[02:35.65]White from my mother and my father was the blackest skies
[02:38.45]Skies, uh, I can see it's true
[02:40.69]Uh, I see my mother up in you
[02:43.47]****, I think my dad'd see it too
[02:46.14]Yo, I just wish he knew
[02:48.15]In love, when the going is tough
[02:54.20]I wait till it falls on deaf ears
[02:59.76]Hearsay, without the boundaries of love
[03:04.37]My take is, I wish there was a better way
[03:10.25]Uh, I got a lot of love, a lot of loose ends
[03:12.32]A lot of people that I wish I knew then
[03:15.02]Friends beckon and every second you spend
[03:17.73]Wetting the pen, every letter you send
[03:20.39]Uh, I got a lot of love, a lot of loose ends
[03:22.94]A lot of people that I wish I knew then
[03:25.55]Friends beckon and every second you spend
[03:28.12]Wetting the pen, every letter you send
[03:30.73]Imagine all the friends you see most
[03:32.04]Each one you peggin' away
[03:33.96]Depending on you putting pen to the page, uh
[03:36.39]And so, you break it down, checking their paid
[03:38.67]Another day you're heartbreakin', you resented the stage
[03:41.19]You feel that same rage
[03:42.31]Watch the crowd, watch the stage
[03:43.86]Thinking, ****, rather in the crowd with your mates drinking
[03:46.91]Misbehaviours, catch another dame winking
[03:49.55]You feel ashamed, guzzle Jagers, you're brain's sinking
[03:52.33]You think it's deep, don't think it's depression
[03:54.59]A misspent adolescence
[03:56.59]But all this time, all this time, time's of the essence
[03:59.80]You ain't never learnt from your lessons
[04:02.04]You're stuck in that same quintessence
[04:04.16]Heart break, one in the same
[04:05.53]Days change, but you're stuck in a game
[04:07.54]It's like, she's telling you, you're young enough to be at uni
[04:10.41]Somehow, the one who sees through me
