Devin Sinha - Girl I Once Knew lyrics

[Verse 1] See mercy shining in the cold light Comin' down out of the rain See all them demons you been draggin' down My life the lock, my love your chains [Chorus] Some folks are out to save their own skin Others will give you the best of them I had the best of intentions with you You went from a dream to a curse to a girl I once knew [Verse 2] See I was eyein' for the long road And you were running hard and fast I saw the future, she looked a lot like you But you were longing for the past [Chorus] The wheel is in spin, the die has been cast Your bag's by the door so there's nothing I'd ask The cage door is open and it's time that you flew You went from a dream to a curse to a girl I once knew [Verse 3] See mercy shining in the cold light Comin' down beneath your dreams See all the doubts that you've been beatin' back By now we both know what it means [Chorus] You don't have to speak, I know the look in your eyes In the end I was just your consolation prize I've got a lantern, some nights still burns for you You went from a dream to a curse to a girl I once knew You went from a dream to a curse to a girl I once knew
