Death By A Thousand Cuts

Death By A Thousand Cuts - Taylor Swift

Lyrics by：Taylor Swift/Jack Antonoff

Composed by：Taylor Swift/Jack Antonoff

Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts

Flashbacks waking me up

I get drunk but it's not enough 'cause

The morning comes and

You're not my baby

I look through the windows of this love

Even though we boarded them up

Chandelier's still flickering here

'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not

It's death by a thousand cuts

I dress to kill my time

I take the long way home

I ask the traffic lights if it'll be all right

They say 'I don't know'

And what once was ours

Is no one's now

I see you everywhere

The only thing we share

Is this small town

You said it was a great love

One for the ages

If the story's over

Why am I still writing pages

Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts

Flashbacks waking me up

I get drunk but it's not enough 'cause

The morning comes and

You're not my baby

I look through the windows of this love

Even though we boarded them up

Chandelier's still flickering here

'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not

It's death by a thousand cuts

My heart my hips my body my love

Trying to find a part of me that you didn't touch

Gave up on me like I was a bad drug

Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club

Our songs our films

United we stand

Our country

Guess it was a lawless land

Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand

Paper cut stings from our paper thin plans

My time my wine my spirit my trust

Trying to find a part of me you didn't take up

Gave you too much but it wasn't enough

But I'll be all right

It's just a thousand cuts

I get drunk but it's not enough 'cause

You're not my baby

I look through the windows of this love

Even though we boarded them up

Chandelier's still flickering here

'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not

No it's not

It's death by a thousand cuts

Trying to find a part of me that you didn't touch

My body my love

But it wasn't enough it wasn't enough no no

I take the long way home

I ask the traffic lights if it'll be all right

They say 'I don't know'
