Lyrics

Switchblade

[Verse 1]

These words ain't heavy on my lips

Unspoken, frozen fingertips

[Pre-Chorus]

(Mm) Because I never eat enough

'Cause you were scared of speaking up

I'm finally out of reach for once

Uh

[Chorus]

It's too late to take the switchblade out

Been two days since your face came back around

Ooh, I wanted you

But you're too late

[Post-Chorus]

Too, too late, yeah

[Verse 2]

Tread water 'til I sprain my wrist (Sprain my wrist, uh)

Get harder just to make you sick

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause I just wanna be enough (Be enough)

So you can come and hit 'еm up

But I'll be out of reach for once

Yеah, I'll be out of reach

[Chorus]

It's too late to take the switchblade out

Been two days since your face came back around

Ooh, I wanted you

But you're too late

[Post-Chorus]

Too late, too late, too late, yeah

Too late, too late, too late, too late, too late

[Outro]

Bye

Bye, see you tomorrow
