Witt Lowry – Lay Here lyrics

[Bridge: James Bay]
From nervous touch and gettin' drunk
To stayin' up and wakin' up with you
Now we're sleepin' near the edge
Holdin' somethin' we don't need
Oh, this delusion in our heads
Is gonna bring us to our knees

[Hook: James Bay]
So, come on, let it go, just let it be
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
Everything that's broke, leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
And I'll be me

[Verse 1: Witt Lowry]
See, as I lay here and get lost into those eyes
Can't deny my feelin's for your being, they run deep inside
And we both know our hunger for some lust is all that's appetized
No ties is how it's advertised
I'd say we love these moments, but that's half a lie
Damn, you're tryna figure me out
And in your eyes I see the pain and fear that turns into doubt
Yeah, you find peace inside your mind as we lay here on this couch
And that's even though you know this moment may not last past now
It's not fair, you're in my ear, "Mark, are you wastin' my time"
We're so hard to define, it's a shame her name will laminate time
'Cause what's forever to a fly, it's forever till we die?
And if I let you have your way, you would just date 'cause I rhyme
Our connection is empty, but lately I've been searchin' for real
Do you remember how it feels to live and actually feel?
She broke me down, so now you're left with all my pieces to heal
How can you steal somethin' from someone who has nothin' to steal
That's real

[Hook: James Bay]
So, come on, let it go, just let it be
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
Everything that's broke, leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
And I'll be me

[Verse 2: Witt Lowry]
See, as you lay here or as we lay here
You won't bottle your questions
You're askin' why you can't stay here
The truth, I'm tryna lose all my feelin's before they appear
Wanna be clear, but it's hard with this naked body I lay near
I know, I shoulda chose someone that matters, no bitches
I'm wishin' I listened, I could've saved my heart from the stitches
We're kissin', I listen, you're tellin' me your favorite position
When really all I wanna hear is that you're loyal and driven
We're livin' in a world where girls are thinkin' diamonds are love
We're minin' it up to remind us of us, payin' for trust
Do you get it? She told me, "Mark, just forget it"
I wanna change this world and girl, I just don't think that you get it
This pressure is heavy, not ready to just let you forget me
But, when this all is said and done, you gon regret that you met me
I used to wanna find a feelin', now I'm feelin' so empty
But honestly, I wanna thank you for the love that you lent me
That's real

[Bridge: James Bay]
From nervous touch and gettin' drunk
To stayin' up and wakin' up with you
Now we're sleepin' near the edge
Holdin' somethin' we don't need
Oh, this delusion in our heads
Is gonna bring us to our knees

[Hook: James Bay]
So, come on, let it go, just let it be
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
Everything that's broke, leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
And I'll be me
