Between The Bars

was introduced to this track when i was only 18 & i’m so grateful for that as it carried me through so much darkness. elliott was such an incredible songwriter and this song has always made me feel so seen. the guitar is so simple yet it doesn’t need anything else but his voice and words. it’s one of those tracks you’d never be able to forget. although it’s just so sad, i could keep it on repeat forever. thank u elliott <3 “Drink up baby, stay up all night With the things you could do You won't but you might The potential you'll be that you'll never see The promises you'll only make Drink up with me now And forget all about the pressure of days Do what I say and I'll make you okay And drive them away The images stuck in your head People you've been before That you don't want around anymore That push and shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still Drink up baby, look at the stars I'll kiss you again, between the bars Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air Waiting to finally be caught Drink up one more time, and I'll make you mine Keep you apart, deep in my heart Separate from the rest, where I like you the best And keep the things you forgot People you've been before That you don't want around anymore That push and shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still”
