Coffin

COFFIN By Jessie Reyez

We fought until the sun rose

And I still ain’t been to bed (Bed, bed)

And while you got your eyes closed

The devil wakes up in my head (Head, head)

He told me that you hate me and you blame me

And you said that you wish that you were dead

So I write a little note out

Suicidal love roulette

You make me wanna jump off the roof

‘Cause I love you to death, just like a fool

I’d rather a coffin, handmade for two

‘Cause I love you to death, just like a fool

Just like a fool

Just like a fool

I walk up to the edge, yeah

And say a prayer before I let go (Let go, let go)

I’ll probably see you through the window

While I’m falling past the fifth floor (Fifth floor, fifth floor)

Then you get there just in time to save me and apologize

And maybe we can go back to bed

But you run past me instead

And hit the ground before I can

I had to watch ya jump from the roof

Boy, I love you to death, just like a fool

We’ll need a coffin, handmade for two

‘Cause I love you to death, just like a fool

Just like a fool, uh

Maybe Buddha’s got it right

We reincarnate every time

And I’ll find you in another life

Maybe Buddha’s got it right

We reincarnate every time

And I’ll find you in another life

I don’t really wanna fight (Nah)

I just wanna spend the night (Yeah)

But I don’t wanna spend the night

Actin’ out “Love the Way You Lie”

But the s--- just went awry

Hit me in the eye, bit me in the thigh, then begin to cry

I’m at the end of my wits, let’s end this, ma (It’s over)

Then begin again tomorrow

Fresh start, let you spoil me

Pledge your loyalty, treat me like a king

Just to f--- me over royally

Boy, are we water mixed with oil

See another shouting match, ’bout to have it out

But no matter how mad I get, I’m so mad about you

Forgot what I was even mad about

I know we’ve had our challenges still

I keep trying to salvage it, you

Wanna sabotage it, I’m down to the hill

But you think I’m f------ around on you, chill

It never changes, I doubt if it will

Cheat on me, then say “How does it feel?”

I feel like blowing my f------ head off

After I write you out of my will

B----, how could you?

Almost had a child wit’ you

Woulda settled down wit’ you

Now I’ll put you in the ground and bury myself wit’ you

I don’t get you, it’s as if you’re drowning

I stick my hand out, but you fool me

You’re just trying to pull me down wit’ you (Down wit’ you)

Thought it was you my world revolve around

I should aim a revolver round at you

180 proof, guess I’m making my way to the roof

You’re a traitor, I say that we’re through

You hop in the elevator, then you

Say the coffin, they better make it for two

‘Cause if you jump, I’m jumpin’ with you

And neither one of us have nothing to lose but each other

We’re just a couple of fools

You make me wanna jump off the roof

‘Cause I love you to death, just like a fool

We’ll need a coffin, handmade for two

‘Cause I love you to death, just like a fool

You make me wanna jump off the roof

‘Cause I love you to death, just like a fool

We’ll need a coffin, handmade for two

‘Cause I love you to death, just like a fool

Just like a fool

Just like a fool
