Beams Lyrics


Arlo Parks Beams

[Verse 1]
We were soberin' up on a stranger's stairs
Looking over shots of Harley Weir
Oh, I felt so dumb when I told you square
"I was suicidal in Brazil"

[Refrain]
I know it's not a way to treat people you love, you love
I know it's not a way to treat people you love
People you love
People you love

[Chorus]
I know I said I'd be okay, but you're smashin' me up
I know it's late where you are, but I can't bear hangin' up
I know I said I'd be okay, but you're smashin' me up
I know it's late where you are, but I'm scared of what I'vе done

[Post-Chorus]
You held me undеr your spell, you held me un—
You held me under, held me under

[Verse 2]
Oh, it broke my heart, when you pulled away
Corner shard of sunset hangin' red
Oh, I never thought my oldest pain
Could be something you'd grow to resent

[Refrain]
I know it's not a way to treat people you love, you love
I know it's not a way to treat people you love
People you love
People you love

[Bridge]
I feel it all, I feel it all
Nothing at all
I feel it all, I feel it all
Nothing at all

[Pre-Chorus]
I know it's the right thing to do, but I don't wanna
I know it's the right thing to do, but I don't wanna
I know it's the right thing to do, but I don't wanna
I know it's the right thing to do, but I don't wanna

[Chorus]
I know I said I'd be okay, but you're smashin' me up
I know it's late where you are, but I can't bear hangin' up
I know I said I'd be okay, but you're smashin' me up
I know it's late where you are, but I'm scared of what I've done

[Outro]
But I'm scared of what I've done
