Human Alchemy by Estyr Lyrics

You were the love I had then lost
Might’ve been better to not

You can’t fall halfway
I’d rather be lonely than trying to stay
Wishing I could change
It’s not you, it’s not me
It’s human alchemy

You came to me honest, pure-hearted, looking for a bone to keep
Well these bones might be pretty but honey they’re needy, they’ll slip away when you least expect

You were the love I had then lost
Might’ve been better to not
Cause somehow almost hurts more than nothing at all
You can’t fall halfway
I’d rather be lonely than trying to stay
Wishing I could change
It’s not you, it’s not me
It’s human alchemy
Cauterize the wound inside with your good intentions
The soul is stronger than my will and strongest intentions

You were the love I had then lost
Might’ve been better to not
Cause somehow almost hurts more than nothing at all
You can’t fall halfway
I’d rather be lonely than trying to stay
Wishing I could change
It’s not you, it’s not me
It’s human alchemy
