benefits

Lyrics: Abby Reese Powledge Music: Abby Reese Powledge Tell me every shitty thing That's ever happened to you I could be your one night stand A fevered hallelujah Baby when you look at me I only empathize Cause I know it must be scathing In that prison of your mind Emphasize it's casual With hands around my waist I'll romanticize the warmth As your cold hands caress my face With this gentleness inside you Like the time is ours to bend And it's awful, and I know it How I let you, let you get The benefits Let you get the bΠ΅nefits Cause therΠ΅'s no telling what it is We're turning labels into sins And I know that we're just friends But I let you Tell me every traumatizing thing That makes this happen Do you fear abandonment? Or really just attachment? Did your mother raise you right? Or did the media consume you? Feed me lies cause it's just how our generation moves I know it's all one in the same for you And I'm crossing a line when I ask 'bout your other lovers Cause God knows you aren't mine And the worst part is I don't feel like I can handle when it ends And I'm awful, and I know it Cause I let you, let you get The benefits Let you get the benefits 'Cause there's no telling what it is We're turning labels into sins And I know that we're just friends But I let you You don't get the benefits Without tying me down After two months of this bullshit I might finally stand my ground 'Cause I don't dare to say we're friends But I don't dare to say we're lovers Feels like any way I put it Tucks you further in my covers You don't get the benefits Without tying me down After two months of this bullshit I might finally stand my ground 'Cause I don't dare to say we're friends But I don't dare to say we're lovers Feels like any way I put it It'll die come end of summer
