Chasing

about

“They always come back when you need them the least”.

“Chasing is a song I wrote about as a way of reclaiming my sense of self after a toxic relationship. It’s the first song I have ever felt powerful in.”

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Take my soul and run
Your white lies are adding up
Fake your faith, your trust
Leave when it gets heavy

[Verse 2]
Memories behind my eyes
They visit me every night
But now you’re outta mind, outta sight
Why am I still so empty?

[Pre-Chorus]
(So now my)
Telephone is ringing but I ain’t picking up
You told me to wait for you
But when you dropped me you lost my love
So now you’re trying twice as hard
But it ain’t half enough
'cause when the best you can give ain’t nothin but a front
Then I guess it’s time to run

[Hook]
But don’t come chasing for me
Don’t come chasing for me now
Yeah, don't come chasing for me
Don't come chasing for me now

[Verse 3]
Rinse me for my love
Fuck me for every drop
Bury me in the mud
But it's where you belong
Where you belong
Where belong

[Pre-Chorus]
(I hear my)
Telephone ringing but I ain’t picking up
You told me to wait for you
But when you dropped me you lost my love
And now you’re trying twice as hard
Regretting what you've done
But when the best you can give ain’t nothin but a front
Then I guess it’s time to run

[Hook]
So don’t come chasing for me
Don’t come chasing for me now
Yeah, don't come chasing for me
Don't come chasing for me now
