Subside Lyrics

[Intro]
That’s what they say time’s just pocket change
That I’m wasting away
Grieving while still alive
And fighting with them won’t make them subside

[Chorus]
Nothing good ever lasts
Girl I was never came back
Staying up, falling off track
So much I wish I knew
Flew too close to the sun
Who I was, she was made of
Threw a punch, had to take one

[Post-Chorus]
It’s what they say
Time’s just pocket change (Ooh)
That I’m wasting away
Grieving while still alive
And fighting with them won’t make them subside


[Verse]
Is it already over?
Sidewalk scraping my knees
Go and have some tangerine
Wanna know why everything worth holding
Turns to a blur in a distance
That’s why I’m clenching my fist
I know all this is you, it is you
Don’t get the same day twice
Still every night
There’s something that won’t heal
Don’t feel right

[Chorus]
Nothing good ever lasts
Girl I was never came back
Staying up, falling off track
So much I wish I knew
Flew too close to the sun
Who I was, she was made of
Threw a punch, had to take one

[Post-Chorus]
It’s what they say
Time’s just pocket change (Ooh)
That I’m wasting away
Grieving while still alive
And fighting with them won’t make them subside

[Bridge]
Oh
Oh, oh
All of this is what it is you
Don’t get the same day twice
Still every night
There’s something that won’t heal
Don’t feel right


[Chorus]
Nothing good ever lasts (Don’t last)
Girl I was never came back (Came back)
Staying up, falling off track (Ooh)
So much I wish I knew
Flew too close to the sun (Yeah, yeah)
Who I was, she was made of (Made of)
Threw a punch, had to take one

[Post-Chorus]
It’s what they say (They say)
Time’s just pocket change (Change, ooh)
That I’m wasting away
Grieving while still alive (Ooh)
And fighting with them won’t make them subside

[Outro]
Oh
Na, na, na
