Ethel Cain - Nettles (Demo) (English Lyrics)

if this isn't on willoughby i'll cry — [Verse 1] We were in a race to grow up Yesterday, through today, ’til tomorrow But when the plant blew up A piece of shrapnel flew and slowed that part of you [Verse 2] The doctors gave you until the end of the night But not ’til daylight (not ’til daylight), not ’til daylight (not ’til daylight) Time passes slower in the flicker of a hospital light I pray the race is worth the fight [Verse 3] Made a fool of myself down on Tennessee Street It wasn’t pretty like the movies, it was ugly like what they all did to me And they did to me what I wouldn’t do to anyone You know that’s for sure [Outro] Tell me all the time not to worry And think of all the time that I’ll have with you When I won't wake up on my own (wake up on my own) Held close all of time knowing I’m half of you #ethelcain #alternative #music #nettles #preachersdaughter #daughtersofcain #willoughby
