mrkuok - Every Time (original acoustic)

Contestant : mrkuok

i'm a singer-songwriter born in singapore but have been studying abroad for the last 10 years of my life - i did a degree in maths and thought it wasn't really my thing so after graduating i decided to spend a year focusing on music and working on my first EP

this song is something i wrote a few days ago and so it's arrangement still feels very raw to me but it also means a lot so i hope you like it.

please subscribe and tell all your friends about it! every little bit helps :)
and also... VOTE!
cheers xoxo

every time

it's never as bad as they say

it's never as cold as it feels

it's never as fast as you think that you're going on two wheels

it's never the same when you look
back on the days that you spent

lying in bed, fingers ahead of their footsteps
but what can you do when their storm follows you

and it's cloudy overhead

the pieces of me that you took

leave holes that i can't seem to fill

as much as i try i'm still crying over our spilt milk

the pieces of me on the floor

are bruised but begging for more

they're calling your name saying "baby i'm missing it all"


but what can i do when i'm thinking of you

and drowning in the silence

every time i close my eyes

it hurts

and every time i think i'm fine

it burns

now as i'm falling asleep

i'm praying for rest in my dreams

as hard as i try

i'm still holding tight to your memory
