Since You Came Lyrics - Singles - Malina

"Today" is such a deceptive word 

For I spent all my days 

grieving loud 

I sang all my pain 

so distressingly 

Just to hush up any imploring shout 

I couldn't speak 

'cause the words I knew 

Like rotten mushrooms dissolved 

You came out of that 

burring host of sounds 

Brought me back 

solid consonants and vowels 

And now my skin is 

so close-fitting 

Keeps the line with all the rest, 

since you came in 

I used to dispel among the things 

that people wanted me to do 

I thought we got too familiar 

To be lovers that 

cherish the flame 

All that we need 

is attention 

And I know I'll always give you the same 

'Cause now my skin is so close-fitting 

Blending with reality, 

since you came in 

Nothing ever moved me 

like your patience 

While you taught me how to choose
