Amelie Jat - Dear Eloise Lyrics

Dear Eloise, this is it, this is all that's left
Along with the ugly wounds and the lies that I'll never forget
Drowning under guilt, sinking empires we built, flimsy strings that you cut
Burning up in flames, no more photos in frames, shadows at the door you shut
And I know I pushed you away
Hidden memories that I'll lock away
Insecurities light up ablaze
Tired, hollow hearts are bound to break
And my stars have gone to sleep it's been a long night
And you slammed the windows now I can't see light
I'm waiting for scars to be healed by the tide
But I, I take it back, take it back, take it back; I'd press rewind
Dear Eloise, open your eyes, tears run like your lies
And shattered trust is now dust, you don't just break, you paralyse
You made a promise that's hanging like your necklace round you while you hide
You left me bleeding by the door then you walked out and locked me inside
So don't you run away now you're awake
Got everybody falling for the smile you fake
Spotlight on you, 'ttention-seeking always
You knew I needed you, so you burned the gate
My stars have gone to sleep it's been a long night
And you slammed the windows now I can't see light
I'm waiting for scars to be healed by the tide
But I, I take it back, take it back, take it back; I'd press rewind
Tape up my life, fixing broken insides
It's not easy
And I'm writing these lines, don't expect you to find
To find me
And my stars have gone to sleep it's been a long night
And you slammed the windows now I can't see light
If you ever read this letter some night
Know that you shut me out, now I can't see light
I'm waiting for scars to be healed, tides to overflow
But I'm, I'm done with this, done with you
Love, someone you used to know
