Tessa Brown - The Alchemist

Porch light, I caught you under, drinking
Phased out, or am I overthinking
Then "I love you's," caught in faded lines
And I'm asking why I carry the weight of your lie
I carry the weight of your lie

Cause I find it hard to play like it's alright
But I'll find a rope and strap myself in tight

I'll believe I'm an alchemist to bury the truth
I can't bare to walk away from loving you
So I'll wait on your leaded soul
Thinking I might one day find you, gold

Last night I wanted to evade it
But by the end I had to save it
Then "I love you's," customary lines
And I'm asking why I'm
Holding you every time
Holding you every time

Cause I find it hard to play likе it's alright
But I'll find a rope and strap myself in tight

I'll beliеve I'm an alchemist to bury the truth
I can't bare to walk away from loving you
So I'll wait on your leaded soul
Thinking I might one day find you, gold

I never meant to pass the blame
I've come to know just what a mess I've made
But face it we're this far
And it should not be this hard
To call your name
Cause I know we're the same

But, I've never been the alchemist to make you new
I can't ignite a fire in a flooded room
I won't stay, but listen close
Please forgive me when I've let you go
I can't ignite a fire in a flooded room
I won't stay, but listen close
Please forgive me when I've let you go
When I've let you go
When I've let you go
