Send a Dove
[Chorus]
I will go down for you (For you)
Covered in the mud, I'd kiss the ground for you (For you)
Here comes the flood, I'll save a place for you (For you)
And when it's all said and done
I hope you send a dove
I hope you send a dove

[Verse]
Careful the words that you say
Did you mean that, babe?
We argue and it sounds rain pouring
But what are we growing?
Counted the messes I made
What can sorrys fix?
I love you, but you feel no rays on you
When's the sun comin'?
I fear we can't find middle ground
I'm scared to say it out loud
You said, "Please don't drag it all out"
If you finna leave, do it now

[Chorus]
I will go down for you (For you)
Covеred in the mud, I'd kiss the ground for you (For you)
Hеre comes the flood, I'll save a place for you (For you)
And when it's all said and done
I hope you send a dove
I hope you send a dove
[Interlude]
Because I've caught the frowns and the anger
You come home and I catch hell
Because I love you, I get least of you
I get— I get the very minimum
And I'm saying, you know, fake it with me

[Bridge]
Don't raise your voice at me
I'll flinch like its a fist
You run quick to rage
You know I hate to feel it
I'm sorry I couldn't see
The little boy trapped underneath
You were drowning every time you sent the flood
But don't save your worst for me
I'm not your leather Everlast
Open your hands, we both have
Some scars to heal
Lie to me still
Lie to me still

[Chorus]
I will go down for you
Covered in the mud, I'd kiss the ground for you (Kiss the ground for you)
Here comes the flood, I'll save a place for you (For you)
And when it's all said and done
I hope you send a dove (Send a dove)
I hope you send a dove (Send a dove, you send a dove)
[Outro]
For you, for you, you, you
For you, for you, you, you
For you, for you, you, you (I will go down for you, I hope you send a dove)
For you, for you, you, you (So down for you, I hope you send a dove)
For you, for you, you, you (Ooh, yeah, I hope you send a dove)
For you, for you, you, you (I hope you send a dove)
For you, for you, you, you (I'd kiss the ground for you, I hope you send a dove)
For you, for you, you, you (For you, I hope you send a dove)
For you, for you, you, you (I hope you send a dove)
For you, for you, you, you (I hope you send a dove)
For you, for you, you, you (I hope you send a dove)
I hope you send a dove

[Interlude]
'Cause what the hell do I care about the truth?
I care if you're there
