a cautionary tale - laufey lyrics

[verse 1]
oh heavens, hear my story
a cautionary tale
of how i came to be loved, and how it came to be a fail
a first time for lovers. a first time in agony
the truths you uncover will knock you on you knees

[verse 2]
i struggled through the winter
found cheat codes for your soul
was born to be a giver
destined to pay the tole

[chorus]
i gave it too much, i gave myself up
i lost sight of all my dignity
i’ve always been smart, my chameleon heart
took your draining personality and gave it to me
i wanted to please you, this performance of a lifetime
my heart to you handed, you took it for granted
and made me the villain
[bridge]
oh inside you there’s a guiltless child who never
saw his mother smile, a boy who had no
sense of home believes he’s better off alone
who coils up in jealousy to mask his insecurities
and i can’t fix you, god i’ve tried, the hour*glass i shattered
just in time

[outro]
i gave it too much, i gave myself up
i lost sight of all my dignity
one more lover fails, cautionary tales
continue to happen to me
