nikhil - Kaanapali Lyrics

Let's make us a thing, dinner date with wings, I'm kinda lonely
My ashy hands as dry as my phone
I'm not better on my own
(How could I be enough when my heart is as cold as stone?)

Nightly conversation, all we need is patience, want you to know me
I march to the beat of my own drums
I really want you to be the one
(All the love in the world and I'll still keep going numb)

Low key
I'm trying to navigate your mind. Baby show me
That this risk is worth the reward
So can we start
Being who we really are?
They can't tear us apart

Let's negotiate the terms, I know I get under your dermis
But why must we retaliate
How can one come to love if the heart is so full of hate?
(The pain from yesterday will just keep me from going straight)

You can steal my spirit and break my pride, while you dilate my iris
I'm entranced and it feels so strange
Butterflies in my rib cage, they flutter when you engage
(I should be so ashamed. How could I just turn the page?)

Low key
I'm trying to navigate your mind. Baby show me
That this risk is worth the reward
So can we start
Being who we really are?
They can't tear us apart

I had a dream in Kaanapali, yesterday was bright jolly
Until you told me we need to talk
You said that you couldn't do it, that's when I knew that I blew it
Can't help but feel like you deserved a lot
In denial. Shoulda known that you wanted more
How could I be enough when my heart is as cold as stone?
Wish I had helped you out when all that shit was going on
All the love in the world and I'll still keep going numb
To all your cries for help, I just keep spiting fate
The pain from yesterday will just keep me from going straight
I wish we never met. I hate the way I hate
I should be so ashamed. How could I just turn the page?
But you're a reason to laugh and you're a reason to cry
And a dream is not a reason to say goodbye
