[Lyric] In the Embers (Sophie Dingsdale)

[VERSE]
Slow love playing on the radio
My breath hitches on the way in
You left early this morning
Took the six o'clock train to the city
I know I should've seen it coming
Braced for this from the beginning
Driving through the forest
When it opens up into a clearing

[PRE-Chorus]
And I know, I know this is on me
Even if you don't explain it
And I know, I know you're sorry
You really don't have to keep saying it

[Chorus]
I swear I'm tryna be better
Cause you know when it all burns down
I'm the one still standing, left in the embers
I swear I'm tryna be better
But it feels like I'm gonna drown
How do I go back when I can't rеmember?
[VERSE]
Scroll through all the old mеssages
Never knowing which is the last
Friends turn back to strangers
It always happens too fast

[PRE-Chorus]
And I know, I know it's unhealthy
Holding onto every mistake
I know people grow apart
I only notice when it's too late

[Chorus]
I swear I'm tryna be better
Cause you know when it all burns down
I'm the one still standing, left in the embers
I swear I'm tryna be better
But it feels like I'm gonna drown
How do I go back when I can't remember?

[BRIDGE]
I still feel like a little kid, scared like I was years ago
Like a soldier with her sword, facing an army alone
Cause in the end everyone leaves
Even when they promise they won't
Tell me how do I sleep at night
Without thinking this is all my fault?
[Chorus]
I swear I'm tryna be better
Cause you know when it all burns down
I'm the one still standing, left in the embers
I swear I'm tryna be better
But it feels like I'm gonna drown
How do I go back when I can't remember?
