Fiction - barbwire (feat. Hmlss) Lyrics

How we going round in circles
You still find the edges
Egyptian cotton bedsheets, girl
That you still haven't slept in
Talking with your eyes, not your lips
Girl, you passive aggressive
It's like there's only ghosts in this house
Somebody should tell the census

Somehow you always leave a bruise
Salt water in these open wounds
White flag, girl, I thought we called a truce
But I see red flags when I look at you
Act like a bitch even after morning coffee
Can't block the door
There is nothing there to stop this
If you don't love me
Just get on with it
Think it's time that we call it quits

Heartbreak hotel
Send a postcard just to wish you well
Think about you with these familiar smells
I hope you're happy cos I cannot tell
No need to buy back
The lies that you sold me
No need to write back
To say that you wrote me
You know the truth is it's you and you only

Still in love with you
Still in love with you
That is not enough for you
Not enough for you
Still in love with you
Still in love with you
But these circles I go around you
Are barbwire I can't get through

There is no residue or evidence
Don't say you love me
When it don't make sense
Either your feelings are kept bottled in
Or there's nothing left
It's just hollowness
Is what it is
Girl, just tell me then
Don't let me dive head first
In the shallow end
Girl, I love you too much
To still be friends
Didn't think this would be
The way it ends

Heartbreak hotel
Send a postcard just to wish you well
Think about you with these familiar smells
I hope you're happy cos I cannot tell
No need to buy back
The lies that you sold me
No need to write back
To say that you wrote me
You know the truth is it's you and you only

Still in love with you
Still in love with you
That is not enough for you
Not enough for you
Still in love with you
Still in love with you
But these circles I go around you
Are barbwire I can't get through

Girl, I'm still in love with
You
With you
Yeah
