Tears Run Dry

[Intro: Sway Clarke II] There’s nothing to borrow There’s no more regrets Your shadows I follow But it’s like no one's there [Hook: Sway Clarke II] But my tears run dry But my tears run dry Oh my fields won't die When you're not there So I go [Verse 1: Tinie Tempah] Head first into your puddle of tears Heart first into the tunnel of fear Had your very first son at 21 Only old enough to be my mum by a couple of years Cuddled all of your kids Soon you’ll be cuddling theirs And we always hear our names when you mumble your prayers Remember when you said get a job, pick another career? But fuck that shit, we're to humble to care yeah Maybe it's God disguising a blessing The truth can be hard to swallow, should I reply to these questions? I’m stuck in the fucking middle on either side of the fences Of all this blinding and effing, just drive me down to my session This a mid-life crisis, is this some kind of depression? Like a substitute teacher, I wanna teach you a lesson, ah I think we should live and just let it die I’ll just put on my fucking shades to hide the pain in my eyes [Hook] [Verse 2: Tinie Tempah] Standing in front of mirrors that make me look best Rolling on something special to make me forget Mum and Daddy came to this country and gave me the best But all the money in the world ain’t repaying the debt After taking a cheque, my girl got impatient and left Still have a Damier Canvas, case of the ex She sending me the sort of things you don’t say in a text I won't even listen to this song cause it makes me depressed Cause I didn’t ever do anything to hurt you Feels like I don’t have anybody to turn to You were the only woman I let into my circle Closer than Celie and Nettie in The Color Purple Saw her the other day, she said she’s going to nurse school Gave me her BBM and said we should keep it virtual But I think we should just live and just let it die I’ll just put on my fucking shades and pretend everything’s fine [Hook] [Verse 3: Tinie Tempah] They said I used to have it, guess I got it back They said I fucking lost it, guess I got it back The pot can’t call the kettle black Here’s a double shot of pride, swallow that Gave your sister my number if you ever wanna chat Heard she gave it you, you never even hollered back Said there was too much on your plate but it wasn’t that You was like an email with a file, you just got attached Read your article and didn’t even need to diss you Cover shoot, I hope they put you on a decent issue And tell your girl I said mwah, ciao and bisou bisou She was on my tour bus for a month and didn’t even miss you After the shit we did it's crazy even if she kiss you Here’s some aloe vera Kleenex if you need a tissue I think we should live and just let it die I’ll just put on my fucking shades and pretend everything's fine [Hook] [Bridge: Tinie Tempah x2] They said I used to have it, guess I got it back They said I fucking lost it, guess I got it back The pot can't call the kettle black Here’s a double shot of pride, swallow that
