about

Debut single from singer-songwriter Sonnei.

From the upcoming EP "The shape of the shift"

lyrics

You always said that you would comfort me,
With everything around us collapsing..
You even said that you'd stick up for me,
Well I feel it when you're lying
And I fear that you've stopped trying.

Thought twice but it wasn't enough.
You cannot earn my trust.
Keep talking if you must..
I'll forget that you were wrong
No job can last this long,
it's time that we move on.

I believe I set your world in reverse.
I wasn't a danger even at my worst
Trusted you but now I'm paying for it.
You're so much work & baby I quit.

You used to say that you would die for me,
Manipulation is a crime you see.
I didn't ask you to explain a thing,
but you tell stories like Stephen King.

Wanna forgive, honey don't forget,
Had amnesia since the day we met.
As you can see I'm over it -
I'll forget that you were wrong
No job can last this long,
it's time that we move on.

I believe I set your world in reverse.
I wasn't a danger even at my worst
Trusted you but now I'm paying for it.
You're so much work & baby I quit.

Dressed to the nines for my interview
Had everything that what was right for you
Not gonna give you two more weeks,
This unemployment is just what I needed.

I believe I set your world in reverse.
I wasn't a danger even at my worst
Trusted you but now I'm paying for it.
You're so much work & baby I quit.
