Why do I keep falling in love when you're only gonna break my heart?

lyrics

Verse 1:
Here I go again, Comical
Spread open wings wide, On a tide
Start the show
Stick and stones won’t break my bones
won’t break my bones
won’t break my bones
I think I’ll fly far tonight
Stick and stones won’t break my bones,
won’t break my bones
won’t break my bones
Fluttering my wings I paint the town

Pre-chorus 1:
I’ve not felt this high
Such a Coquettish toy
Oh dear
Flirting with danger
I just wanna lose my mind
So here I go again

Chorus 1:
One, Strike away the morals and rules I’ve known
Shut inside your lair where I am
Prison bound to your heart
Till the day where you’ll part
Pluck at my
String of emotion

Verse 2:
I pray that this is just infatuation
I’m falling deeper in love
I pray that this is just infatuation
Something I lost inside

Pre-Chorus 2:
I’ve not felt this high
Such a Coquettish toy
No fear
Flirting with danger
I just wanna lose my mind
So here I go again

Chorus 2:
Now, swipe away all value of love I knew
Starve me till I’m but desire
Prison bound in the dark
Licking lesions you'd cut
Plucked too hard
Lost my emotions
Dear

Bridge:
I loved you so
Why did you just
Go and break my heart
Why d’you go
Break my Heart

Chorus 3:
Now my feathers are rough
Dusky dawn birds of prey
Now I have become
Someone fleeting, come and go again
Someone you can never tame
Curtsey to your own game
No you can’t defy
All my whims and pleasures I desire
And you’re under my spell
Now my feathers are rough
Dusky dawn birds of prey
Now I have become
Someone fleeting, come and go again
Someone you can never tame
Curtsey to your own game
No you can’t defy
All my whims and pleasures I desire
And you’re under my spell
Oh can’t you tell?

about

Sally Ann Paris, France

Music has always been my escapism from harsh realities. I used to battle incessantly with a series of 'colourful diagnoses'.

But now, as an emancipated artist armed with the voice I fought for, I write songs that muse on the philosophy of life and spin experiences with trials and tribulations over darkness into rhapsodic stories.

In hopes to shine a light on the shadows that try to over-tower.
