Lyrics

Sedative

It's been a long time since I
It's been a long time since I've moved
My passport photo
Looks nothing like me I
Spent a long time looking
For someone like you
Your mindset's a sedative
My tongue's out, ready for it
Your touch is so intimate
I hate that I'm desperate
London's not as cool without you
She makes me question if I wanna be just friends
Or more
A jealous longing
And I melt
With fever of looming rejection
How do you deal?
Your mindset's a sedative
My tongue's out, ready for it
Your touch is so intimate
I hate that I'm desperate
Your mindset's a sedative
My tongue's out, ready for it
Your touch is so intimate
I hate that I'm desperate
London's not as cool without you
London's not as cool without you
London's not the same
When I'm with you I feel like
I'm more like me, something the years
Have taken away, grab my hand
You didn't know you had to save me
Sorry my mind was made up from the
Moment I couldn't keep up with you
How much can I change before it's murder uhu before it's murder
Your mindset's a sedative
My tongue's out, ready for it
Your touch is so intimate
I hate that I'm desperate
Your mindset's a sedative
My tongue's out, ready for it
Your touch is so intimate
I hate that I'm desperate
London's not as cool without you
Why did you move
Why did you move
London's not as cool without you
Why did you move
Why did you move
London's not as cool without you
Why did you move
Why did you move
Why did you move
Why did you move
Why did you
