Automatic Love - Lauren Cimorelli

Baby, please

Don’t leave it up to me

Can’t you see

It’s getting hard to breathe

Look at me

I’m tearing at the seams

And you can’t see

That you’re losing me

And you’re wrapping your arms around me

But we’ve both got blades in our hands

Watching the flames get higher

Everytime I go

Walking ourselves through a graveyard

Just talking 'bout how the weather’s nice

Watching the chains get tighter

Everytime you go

You love me with a broken heart

You touch me and I fall apart

And we end up back right where we started from

We do all the things we know we should

'Cause everything is always good

We push it down in this automatic love

Losing sleep and my priorities

Cause I can’t keep all these promises

Watch you bleed out insecurity

So you can’t see

That you’re hurting me

You won’t say that you’re sorry

But we both got blood on our hands

Telling ourselves it’s alright

But we’re so alone

Waiting til we hit the pavement

But we’re already black and blue

And I’m standing right in front of you

But I’m still alone

You love me with a broken heart

You like it when I fall apart

So you can put me back together again

We do all the things we know we should

Cause everything is always good

We push it down in this automatic love

Automatic love

Oh, this tragic love

Can’t get past it, no

In this automatic love

And we’re screaming under our breaths

Don’t know how to let it show

It’s all right under the surface ready to explode

We’re burning in the fire

But I don’t wanna be the one

To pull out all the wires

Of this automatic love
