Birdy – Terrible Love lyrics
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walkin' in
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walkin' in
It's quiet company, it's quiet company (x2)

It's quiet company

And I can't fall asleep without a little help
It takes a while to settle down
My shivered bones
Until the panic sets

It takes an ocean not to break (4x)

Company
It's quiet company
It's quiet company

But I won't
Follow you into the rabbit hole
I said I would
But then I saw
Your shivered bones
They didn't want me to

It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walkin' in
It's a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders
It's a terrible love and I'm walkin' in

It takes an ocean not to break (4x)

    I think this songs about a girl and a guy's relationship. Well, obviously. But its just not played well. They love each other, yes. But their love isn't logical. Like, they're together against all logic and its hard for them. Its a terrible love and I'm walking with spiders / their relationship can break any moment because of its delicate. It's a quiet company / they're together, against their families/friends/beliefs.
    But I won't follow you into the rabbit hole / the girl isn't sure if this is what she wants. I said I would, but then I saw your shivered bones / she kinda takes back thinking that they'd make it against all odds. You didn't want me to / he doesn't have his heart in it.
