beabadoobee - Ripples

Intro 1

Verse 1

Please don′t make me hide

I’ve been putting up a fight

What′s the use of it now

When I get pulled down anyways?

I’ve been hiding my expression

You can't blame the reflections

And the ripples on the ground

I might as well have drowned

Chorus 1

So, I′m keeping busy

Work twice as hard as you

Want you to believe me

That I can pick and choose

Said you′d let me drive your car

As long as I’m with you

Then you′d wait 'til we get far

To tell me that you′ll be gone soon

Verse 2

Feels too late right now

I’ve been holding back

′Cause I'm afraid that I'm too loud

Six feet underground

That I feel alone again

Stuck between my friends

I guess I′ll figure my way through them

Not sure how I do it

Pre-Chorus 1

But I′m sure now

The people would listen as the water glistens

Then I see my reflection so much clear

Chorus 2

So, I'm keeping busy

Work twice as hard as you

Want you to believe me

That I can pick and choose

Said you′d let me drive your car

As long as I’m with you

Then you′d wait 'til we get far

To tell me that you′ll be gone soon
