Dumps - Emeka

This broke me to my core, innit

(When do the memories fade away)

This broke me

I could be down in the dumps if you want me too

Yeah I been there too

It’s a mood lately

And there’s space here, for me and you

Like I ain’t, I

Tsk, honestly

I don’t even think they’re like

Understanding or clocking what I’m sayin

So let me explain (They're not clocking what I’m sayin so let me explain)

Yeah, listen

It’s when feelings change and my heart wants laying, to rest

And I feel-

Nah I can’t say it, but it’s not worthless

On my down days when I don’t want this earth no more

Why a world of hurtin sons and daughters still play games?

This is not a sport (hurtin sons and daughters still play games)

All the painful memories

(This is not a sport) Feeling like they won

They weigh me down

When I’m trying my best to just move on

Take off

For a while I stayed, I thought

What’s a broken heart when I’m tryna mend your soul?

(What's a broken heart when I’m tryna mend your soul)

But we fight now

And now our love

It feels like war

My aching heart is broke, at its core

Every Sunday rolls into the week before

And my sense of time stopped ticking when we stopped (stopped)

But it’s more than that I lost

Surprised you left me here to rot (its not just that I lost)

Surprised the memories pain this long

Why a love come with a cost?

What’s the price to heal this pain?

The lessons learnt forever saved

Save me from myself I beg

Can this I ever try again?

(Save me from myself I beg) Need, need space from my own head

(Can this I ever try again?)

(Needing space from my own head) Needing space from my own head

How long am I damaged for?

And when do the memories fade away?

I’ll always remember your name

The times we shared

Never cared for anyone

The same as I did for you

But the shame on me was thrown by you

It became a game, a game I lost (I lost)

For years now I’ve been bruising

Ever since this, I been losing (I been losing)

Yeah, yeah

{Interlude]

And basically

That’s the situation that I found myself in

(And It’s like head up, head up, keep your head high)

And It’s like head up, head up, keep your head high

But they never realise

It’s true I cried

This broke me down so many times

It’s true I cried

This broke me down so many times

I won’t lie to you, this broke me to my core innit

This broke me

(This broke me)
