Corpse

2023/07/29

(written by Yabo Dyakopu, Tiya Mthombeni & Elethu Maru Siyo)

There was a time when it seemed like I had it all

Gave all the love I could give but I fell off short

Jumped when they asked, never thought i’d be left on the floor

Laying with lies and a fickle disguise

I’m out cold

Nobody picks up the phone when I call anymore

Now I’m convincing myself that I’m better alone

Dancing with ghosts in my room ‘til the twilight falls

These walls are a perfect blue here to watch me bawl

I can’t be what you want from me anymore

Corpse the scene, your idea of me is a whore

I can’t be what you want from me anymore

Corpse the scene, your idea of me is a whore

Trying to prepare myself

Brace for impact

You won’t take it well

I can’t be what you want from me anymore

Untether yourself from me

Can’t handle your apathy

Corpse the scene, your idea of me is a whore

Don’t embrace this plastic skin

Built to break I’m paper thin

I can’t be what you want from me anymore

I can’t be what you want from me anymore

Corpse the scene, your idea of me is a whore

I can’t be what you want from me anymore

Corpse the scene, your idea of me is a whore

I can’t be what you want from me anymore

Sun

I can’t find my day cream and it’s hurting me

I’m so scared you’ll leave

You’ll find me boring

You’re the embodiment of sol

Melt me with the ice and snow

Sunrise salutations

Bring us light again

I just want you to shine

You’re mine

Your my

Your my

Sun

You’re mine

You’re mine

Your my

Sun

Become the air I breathe

Roll me a treat

I’ll come by in the week

I’ll play you some beats

I’ll come by in the week, yeah

I’ll come by in the week

Created equal to our surprise

Emerging regal before your pride

Ten thousand people

Ten thousand eyes

Respect my ego

It′s my disguise

You'll never know how much I hide

In my endless room of mirrors

Staring outer visions

Solitary mind and the canvases behind

You′ll never see how much I try

All my ships are slowly sinking

Paradise is bleeding

I was left behind

Your horizon meets the sky

Can't you see

This life is a movie

The curtains surround me

The lights are so bright

People frightening

Focus scene

The bokeh behind you

This all we have lived through

Just leave me alone
