Pools Songtext
von NIKI

When I was young I used to check for you under my bed
(Under my bed)
But now I′m older and instead I let you sleep on it
(Sleep on it)
You're smoking five days a week
Don′t you say I'm why you can't breathe
You got nerve sayin′ it ain′t that deep
Friends don't wear skin to sleep
Oh

Why′d you let me sink in
Pools of wishful thinking?
I don't wanna swim anymore
Look at all these bloodstains
I′ve been calling warpaint
There ain't nothing here to fight for


King of my condo, there′s a second toothbrush by the sink
(By the sink)
Then I ask where your kingdom lies
You hand me a blank map with X in ink
(X in ink)

I'm every metaphor
You hold me like I'm your everything and more
But when the sun rays greet the floor
You make it clear I′m everything but yours
Oh

Why′d you let me sink in
Pools of wishful thinking?
I don't wanna swim anymore
Look at all these bloodstains
I′ve been calling warpaint
There ain't nothing left to fight for, hmm

I′m givin' up the fight
Don′t wanna waste my time
You go run for your life
Be my guest, be my guest
Oh, I'll be fine
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I'll be fine
