Rein Me In

Sam Fender, Olivia Dean

I let go of everything I ever had

'Cause I couldn't give the love you deserved

By The Gunner, you shouted, "Oh, my God"

It seemed churlish, but it's what I was owed, I suppose

Every flagstone of this town bears our prints

And all the bars round here serve my ghosts and carcasses

I wish I knew these things when I was young

'Cause now I've just gone so numb

We take whatever we can to get the reason back

So, please, don't rein me in

Don't rein me in

Please, don't rein me in

I'm working myself up to a nice, warm bliss

All my memories of you ring like tinnitus

If I stop, it's just pain

Please, don't rein me in

There's nothing brave in walking alone

Love in exile has nowhere to go

So, come on home

Mm-mm, mm

Don't run away from my tenderness

You're so afraid of that heart inside of your chest

We were doing so well, but you were scared to be held

Took the easiest way out

I see the tears of a man too proud to reach for a hand

Well, let my love keep you safe now

So, please don't

Don't rein me in

Please, don't rein me in

I'm working myself up to a nice, warm bliss

All my memories of you ring like tinnitus

If I stop, it's just pain

Please, don't rein me in

And I'm, I'm stood here chewing everyone's lugs off

Telling everybody how much I fucked it up

Telling everybody but you how much I fucked it up

Slow down Don't rein me in

Don't

And I'm working myself up to a nice, warm bliss

All my memories of you ring like tinnitus

If I stop, it's just pain

Please, don't rein me in

And I'm working myself up to a nice, warm bliss (Working myself)

All my memories of you ring like tinnitus (My memories you)

If I stop, it's just pain

Please, don't rein me in
