Lyrics #10419

Not This Way

A high-energy, bittersweet synth-pop anthem about realizing that a passionate love has become too toxic and overwhelming to sustain.

[Verse 1]
We build it up just to watch it burn
Every sweet promise takes a bitter turn
I'm walking on a wire stretched way too tight
Trying to guess if we're in a love or a fight
You lock me out then you pull me close
It's the side of you that hurts the most

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm losing my grip, I'm losing my mind
Trying to leave all this chaos behind
My heart is heavy and my hands are tied
There's nowhere left for us to hide

[Chorus]
There's no way I can love you this way
Watching our blue skies fade into grey
Giving you everything till I go numb
Look at the damage that we have done
I want to stay but it's too much to pay
No, there's no way I can love you this way

[Verse 2]
We draw a line then we cross it fast
Living in a dream that was never gonna last
You say you're sorry with a perfect smile
But we've been running on empty for a mile
I'm tired of the rules that you always bend
Wondering if this is the start of the end

[Bridge]
Maybe in another life we got it right
Without the shadows blocking out the light
But here in the real world we're falling apart
I gotta protect what is left of my heart

[Chorus]
There's no way I can love you this way
Watching our blue skies fade into grey
Giving you everything till I go numb
Look at the damage that we have done
I want to stay but it's too much to pay
No, there's no way I can love you this way

[Outro]
No way, no way
I gotta walk away
No, there's no way I can love you this way
Prompt: No way I can love you this way,
