lyrics

I hope you know you're beautiful
That's why I tell you all the time
It's not 'cause I want you to fall
For some foolish love like mine
Don't let me put my arms around you
I'll only drag you down
My heart is sleeping soundly on the other side of town
Don't let me pin my hopes upon you
Don't let me drag you around the way I do
Go and be a better version of you
You don't want the same life all the time
You'd like to be reborn each morn
And if you need to breathe, It's not a crime
I'll still be here to reach for, in these storms
But don't let me put my arms around you
I'll only drag you down
My heart is sleeping soundly on the other side of town
Don't let me lay my burdens on you
And there was no better way than what I felt yesterday
But there is no part of you I wouldn't try to unscrew, if you let me
Just to see inside of you
And when the sunrise found us
I thought I saw another life
Some other version of you
One where you became my inspiration, drive
Compassion, sense of humor, self, and fashion
See how quickly these things happen
Don't let it happen to me, don't let it happen to you
Don't let me put my arms around you
I'll only drag you down
My heart is sleeping soundly on the other side of town
Don't let me pin my hopes upon you
Don't let me drag you around the way I do
Go and be a better version of
Go and be a brighter light to shine through
Go and be a better version of you, of you, of you

Shadwick Wilde Louisville, Kentucky

Rejecting the constrictions of genre, Shadwick Wilde’s songs touch each other’s edges, but each brings its own distinct vision, strung together by the common thread of Wilde’s muscular poetry, emotive vocals, and unique style of upside-down, left-handed guitar playing. ... more
