Dusk Till Dawn - Madilyn Bailey

Maybe this is not so black and white? Maybe this is not just day and night? Maybe we're the shadows in between dusk and dawn? I remember my body on the floor Against the dress just staring at the door I don't know if it's ever been so quiet in New York If I come home Will you be forgiving, forgiving me for Thinking I needed to be needed some more? That maybe the shadows between the dusk and dawn Proved me wrong I'm going through the motions to survive Teach me how to fast forward or rewind If this is being human where have I've been all this time? Now looking at it from the other side Why'd we set the smoke alarm on fire? Everybody knows two wrongs don't ever make it right If I come home Will you be forgiving, forgiving me for Thinking I needed to be needed some more? That maybe the shadows between the dusk and dawn Proved me wrong Aah, aah Dusk and dawn Aah, aah Proved me wrong Aah, aah Dusk and dawn, no You proved me wrong Maybe this is not so black and white? Maybe this is not just day and night? Maybe we're the shadows in between dusk and dawn?

I tell myself that I'll take you for the last time I'll be over you eventually Time after time, you seem to brush me off I understand what we have become You wash your neck when you leave, now I know your routine I was in love with your mystery Now I just take what I can get from you I'm not embarrassed to be what you want me to be Cause unlike you I got nothing to hide I don't pretend to have any shame I got a box we could put all your lies in Until the end of days You know that I will be a call away The call you make when you're all alone And I know that I will always be the one You repent when you are done Well here comes the sun And you're in my arms And my denial keeps me on the edge of the chance That you'll stay through the night You just wanna fill the void now I can tell that you've been yelling at him all night long And I can hear it in your voice now He got you smoking extra packs a day Don't you worry bout me talking I know why you've been coming I'll be quiet this ain't nothing to me Just wrap your legs around my waist I won't stop until you ask me Don't you worry bout us messing up my sheets Cause unlike you I got nothing to hide I don't pretend to have any shame I got a box we could put all your lies in Until the end of days You know that I will be a call away The call you make when you're all alone And I know that I will always be the one You repent when you are done Well here comes the sun And you're in my arms And my denial keeps me on the edge of the chance That you'll stay through the night Well here comes the sun And you're in my arms And my denial keeps me on the edge of the chance That you'll stay through the night You're gonna hate him Then you'll want me Then you'll miss him Then you'll hate me Girl, I know you so well Girl, I know your routine You're gonna hate him Then you'll want me Then you'll miss him Then you'll hate me Girl, I know you so well Girl, I know your routine Well here comes the sun And you're in my arms And my denial keeps me on the edge of the chance That you'll stay through the night Well here comes the sun And you're in my arms And my denial keeps me on the edge of the chance That you'll stay through the night

See my hand is moving Touching all that's real And once it stroked love's body Now it claws the past The scent of a flower The colours of the morning Friends to believe in Tears soon forgotten See how the rain drives away, another day If a leaf has fallen Does the tree lie broken? And if we draw some water Does the well run dry? The sigh of a mother The screaming of lovers Like two angry tigers They tear at each other See how for him lifetime's fears disappear Once had Jesus suffered Heaven could not see him And now my ship is sinking The captain stands alone A pawn on a chessboard A false move by God will now destroy me But wait, on the horizon A new dawn seems to be rising Never to recall this passer-by, born to die

Door is locked, my gums are bleedin' Outside she reads, outside she's readin' The evacuation procedure Out loud Clothes are off, my health recedin' Somewhere she dreams, somewhere she's dreamin' Of Caribbean Nica Libres At dusk While the faithful dispose of a generation And all of the mountains whisper knowingly I order a colada and sit to count my dollars And watch eagles soar in circles Perpetually Door is locked, my gums are bleedin' Outside she reads, outside she's readin' The evacuation procedure Out loud Clothes are off, my health recedin' Somewhere she dreams, somewhere she's dreamin' Of Caribbean Nica Libres At dusk While the faithful dispose of a generation And all of the mountains rumble knowingly I order a colada and sit, to count my dollars And watch eagles soar in circles Perpetually Forever, forever Such a beautiful thing Now that I am older and don't look over my shoulder I know what is there in front of me Ten Marlboro cigarettes, I rolled the butts into the bottle tops Today I will stare at the sea 'Til my eyes have had enough Enough (enough) Is that enough?

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع

One, two, three Why are you hanging on so tight To the rope that I'm hanging from? Off this island, this was an escape plan (this was an escape plan) Carefully timed it, so let me go And dive into the waves below Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables? Emotional torture from the head of your high table Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring? And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting And I'm getting fucking tired The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ended, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour You make me do too much labour Apologies from my tongue, and never yours Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man), and weaponise The false incompetence, it's dominance under a guise If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her The emotional torture, from the head of your high table She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake At least I've gotta try The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid (The capillaries in my eyes are bursting) Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant (If our love died, would that be the worst thing?) Just an appendage, live to attend him (For somebody I thought was my saviour) So that he never lifts a finger (You sure make me do a whole lot of labour) 24-7, baby machine (The calloused skin on my hands is crackin') So he can live out his picket fence dreams (If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?) It's not an act of love if you make her (And the silence haunts our bed chamber) You make me do too much labour
