We continue our feature of singer, Macy Gray. This week's selection is "Still." This song was released in June, 1999 from her her debut studio album, " How Life Is." This song highlights the conflicting feelings that consume someone when they're in a relation that is abusive. Enjoy Macy's raspy voice as she entertains you with a style that is totally hers.
Still
In my last days there were bruises on my face
In my dawn a new day
I finally got away
But my head's all messed up and he knows just what to say
No more dawn and new days
I'm going back to stay
So why say goodbye
When it only makes me cry
I still
Light up like a candle burnin' when he call me up
I still
Melt down like a candle burnin' every time we touch
Oh say what you will
He does me wrong and I should be gone
But I still
Be lovin' you baby and it's much too much
We are goin' down
'Cause you're always getting high
And your crumbs of lovin'
No longer gets me by
Wow! It gets better every time we get high
Then your crumbs of lovin'
They somehow get me by
Why, say bye bye
When it only makes me cry
I still
Light up like a candle burnin' when he calls me up
I still
Melt down like a candle burnin' every time we touch
I still
Light up like a candle burnin' when he calls me up
I still
Melt down like a candle burnin' every time we touch
Oh say what you will
He does me wrong and I should be gone
I be lovin' you baby and it's much too much
Can't I go my severed ways?
Some rain for my sunny day
Not even one reason to stay
Why?
I can't forgetcha baby
Why?
Ever since I metcha it's
Why?
I still
I Still
Light up like a candle burnin" when he calls me up
I still
Melt down like a candle burnin' every time we touch
I still
Light up like a candle burnin' when he calls me up
I still
Melt down like a candle burnin' when we touch
I still
He does me wrong and I should be gone
I be lovin' you baby and it's much too much
