very pumped to be continuing these animations for the acoustic versions of my songs! "high & dry" was originally made like this version, and it's near and dear to my heart. hope ya like it.

follow mxmtoon:

lyrics:
throwing empty threats
across at me in passing and i thought
that you had grown on up
but now i see you’ve been acting
so childish and immature
you hurt me with your words
called me a friend and played pretend
but you’ve got it all backwards

and i know
that when all you wanna do is hurt me
and you’ll see
there’s little reward in stinging me like a bee
i’ve seen your glare your nasty looks
plotting scare after scare
don’t come for me i’ll fight right back
it’s not fun if you don’t play fair

oh me
oh my
not gonna let this one by
oh me
oh my
karma’s got you high and dry
maybe you slipped away
with your nasty words in the past
but oh not i

i’ve taken my share of shots
and i swear i will be your last
so unaware and ignorant
i swear you choose to ignore
the subtle hints and warnings
that you feel aren’t called for
and i know
that when all you wanna do is hurt me
and you’ll see
there’s little reward in stinging me like a bee

i’ve seen your glare your nasty looks
plotting scare after scare
don’t come for me I’ll fight right back
it’s not fun if you don’t play fair
oh me
oh my
not gonna let this one by

oh me
oh my
karma’s got you high and dry
and i thought
we could make it work
and i wanted
to give you a chance
but you just threw it all away
so now, i’m gonna hold my stance

and i know
that when all you wanna do is hurt me
and you’ll see
there’s little reward in stinging me like a bee
i’ve seen your glare your nasty looks
plotting scare after scare
don’t come for me I’ll fight right back
it’s not fun if you don’t play fair

This really touched me since I’ve been getting bullied by a girl that calls herself
My “Friend” for a long time now. And this reminds me of the situation I’m in so it hit me HARD. 😅
