Kellie Larson

​(Verse 1)
(Acoustic fingerpicking, quiet and reflective)
Yellow raincoat sitting on the chair
I wonder if you need it out there
Rain hasn't stopped—you’d say the heavens cry a lot
Drops make beats on the window sill
Racing down the pane to see who wins and gets in
​(Verse 2)
Table by the door, I move the keys on top a note
Read it twice, put 'em back to hold it down tight
Greatest line at the end of a to-do list:
"Anniversary" underlined with a heart
Then the words: "Thirty years of not being apart"
​(Pre-Chorus)
My eyes land on two cups next to the sink
I laugh at myself 'cause I stop to think:
What are you doing right now?
I close my eyes, and to the music the rain plays...
I hear you singing:
​(Chorus)
(Full instrumentation enters—warm, driving acoustic rhythm and subtle swell)
"Come on, come on, open up the door!
Lemme grab my coat and list for the store
But first follow me past the garden gate
There's something I know you'll adore
We can dry off later by the fireplace
Then turn this old house up, make the floorboards shake!"
​(Verse 3)
(Music drops back down to soft guitar and ambient rain texture)
Quiet in the kitchen feels heavy now
I try to let you go, but I don't know how
Tap my foot to the rain on glass and stone
Counting up the reasons that I'm here alone
While your yellow coat hangs where you left it behind
​(Bridge)
(Vocal builds with rising intensity and tension)
My smile loses its way every time I rewind
'Cause those words were from another day
Oh, I wish I could hear you say...
​(Chorus - Echoing Memory)
(Full band energy, slightly distant or vocal reverb to layer the nostalgia)
"Come on, come on, open up the door!
Lemme grab my coat and list for the store
But first follow me past the garden gate
There's something I know you'll adore
We can dry off later by the fireplace
Then turn this old house up, make the floorboards shake!"
​(Outro)
(Instruments strip back to solitary piano or sparse acoustic guitar strum, wide pauses)
Floorboards don't shake no more...
In this old house...
Two cups stay rooted at the sink.
Keys that won't ever open the door,
'Cause they hold down the note from hitting the floor.
Yellow coat waiting for you on the chair
Since you can't use it out there...
I stand by the window, looking out into the rain...
And you're waiting for me just past the garden gate.

You started this, hijacking my heart, now you don't know what to do
Thought you played me, I annihilated you
Standing there shook with shock and awe,
You are a P.O.W.
You introduced me as "good friend," so I did the same,
My fam knows you as "what's his name?"
You say I am too much, well that's a fact
You are sittin' petty, I am living grand

You won't see me when it lands
I am playing chess while you play tag
Wish I could wear it on a badge
R.I.P to your ego in that body bag

You thought you won when you walked away
I just delayed your judgement day
I wanted you loyal, you got dark
So that mess you left, I turned it into art

You seem hungry, watch me eat
My thermos is filled with the things you did to me
A little monster gobbling up everything
Washing YOU down like it ain't nothing
I am way too much

You thought you broke me, what a joke
Now you're choking on my smoke
Talk your trash from miles away
Cashed your check, enjoyed a spa day
You said just buy one, I heard Puff, returning all that K.Y. going to be tough
Your favorite hoodie, on my besties door
It works great for cleaning my floor.
You tried to break me, I dismantled you
Everything you threw at me, I served back times two
I'm big on justice, fair is fair, Karma comes later but I will be right there
You hid behind charm, I hid your name
You knew how I was but didn't think
I’d flip the script and watch you sink

Your coffee mug, the one you prefer, at the bottom of the dumpster
Changed your name to "Balding on top" [you and your hairline really should stop]
changed your profile on that site—man seeking man who can go all night
Added your digits changed D.O.B.—so have fun and happy birthday

Hang on cowboy, here we go,
Ain't my first rodeo,
You are losing to a Pro.

Eye for an eye, I want both
Work's out great, cuz your glasses broke
I don't break down, I cash out pain
Smile in your face, then change up lanes
Soft in the start till you poked me sharp
You say I want revenge, that maybe true
and So those girls have a heads up on you

You thought you won when you walked away
I just delayed your judgement day
I wanted you loyal, you got dark
So that mess you left, I turned it into art

You're losing to a Pro, with a petty girl's heart

Yeah, I am too much

You made your bed, my side undone, so I cut them in half, then bought new ones
All those cold little no's when I needed a scratch?
I put itching powder in your jockstrap
I Mailed a book to your work, called What to do when your co-workers are jerks
The other one to your mom Prison Love 2: I want bottom. Text me again, this all restarts,
I'm big on justice, fair is fair, your
best friend is here chilling in his underwear - Yeah I am way too much

You hid behind charm, I hid your name
Now your little games got played the same
You knew exactly what I do, but didn't think I would turn on you
You say I am too much, well that's a fact
You are petty, I am grand
You won't see me when it lands
Playing chess while you play tag
Carrying your ego in a body bag
You thought you broke me, what a joke
I turned your little ashes into smoke
Talk your trash from miles away
I cashed your check, receipts, spa day
You tried to break me, I dismantled you
Everything you threw out I served two
I am big on justice, fair is fair
Leveled up fast and then surpassed
Yeah, now they will know your name

(Pre Chorus Repeats)
Better have a seat, I'm about to eat
My thermos is filled with all you did to me
A little monster eating up everything
Washing you down like it ain't nothing
You're going to see my too much

Favorite cup kept down low, high above the fridge now it goes
Renamed in my phone, you're panty stains, farts and mold
Used your gift card, put it back, sixty-one cents left on that
Used your password, changed your page, man seeking man, happy birthday
Your favorite hoodie, you left by the door, is my favorite rag for the floor
Eye for an eye, I want both
Don't need your glasses, they're already broke

(Chorus Repeats)
I don't break down, I cash out pain
Smile in your face, then change up lanes
Soft in the start till you poked me sharp
You think I want revenge, that's true
It's also for those girls so they know about you
You thought you won when you walked away
I just delayed your judgment day
I wanted you loyal, you got dark
So that mess you left I turned to art
Messing with a petty girl's heart
Text me again, this all restarts

(Verse 1)
I hope that you aren't alone on this special day
And I now confess what I didn't allow myself to say
You showered me with a thousand I love yous
But I echoed back so few love toos
That ghost haunts me for what I didn't give to you

(Chorus)
If you were near I would gaze upon you, look in your eyes and admit the truth,
That I was wrong and didn't deserve the gold you gave
Since I kept my heart at bay locked away for so long
Now you're gone everything is gray, all the worlds have colors faded away

(Verse 2)
I've been a mess left with your words swimming in my head
Drowning in a pool of regret for all I left unsaid
I spent too much time on me and mine and not enough panning for you
So I sit here alone in the wreckage just wanting a redo
Just one more try, one more try with you

I'm left with your words replaying in my head
What your lips wont mouth never utter again
I was always digging for glitter in a fools gold mine
while you were the real treasure,I left behind
i should have replied more saying I love you too
I am the biggest fool
I'd give anything for a redo

(Bridge)
I was the king of a hollow throne
I was a fool counting his gold while you were left here just feeling alone
You traded your big warm heart for a cold pocket of stone
Now i'm reaping the silence i've sown,

(Outro)
If you allowed a redo then this Valentines Day, I wouldn't hide my heart or have fear to blame
I would cast aside all that ego and pride
Just so I could say to you, what you deserve to hear
Those three words that's long overdue
No, not love you too, not love you too
but I love you
I love you
I would give anything for a redo
I love you!

(Verse 1) I spend my days giving your role its weight, You don't even bother to check my state. I bleed, I bend, I make it through to the end, Just so you’ve got that money to spend.

(Chorus) It doesn't matter what I say, It doesn't matter what I do. I work hard to give you yours, While I stand on my bare bones.

(Verse 2) You don’t even know if I’ve got a wife to leave, Or a son or daughter missing little league. That Lambo you drive is quite a ride, But my bonus was nothing, after months on overdrive.

(Verse 3) The coffee is weak and the emails grow tall, Just a mindless zombie walking through the hall. Your profit line rises, you’re chasing the gain, By day wasting my life, at night numbing the pain.

(Bridge) The hours are less, the work is more, There's even two names now on my office door. I get tired earlier and struggle through, The end of my day brings not one thank you.

(Outro) That job of yours? I can do it too. But here I sit with an upward view. After all the time I gave to you, I’m left standing, stripped down. No, not one "thank you." Just standing on these bare bones.

(Verse 1) Laying still... in this bed... shallow, short breaths while you’re creeping around. Just praying you’d think I’m asleep... not making a sound. I don’t want your stored-up guilt to start a fight, Or make my soul... another battleground. Okay, I am up... (I'm up)... and yes, I heard you. Please, just stop... (stop). Why so cruel? (Why... why?) Just leave my heart alone. What did I ever do... so bad to you?

(Verse 2) You accuse me of everything, you throw lies and you deflect. Blaming me for every damn thing, making up events... just for effect. Fighting with you is exhausting... you play those sick games. Pulling me into the fray, staying out all night, seeking comfort in other names. I used to cry those tears, but the river don't flow no more. (No more... no more...) 'Cause I’m not the girl you used to know... from before.

(Chorus) You won't break me down. You won't tear me up... never again. I’m finally done with your empty promises, and every way you pretend. (I’m done...) You’re not good for me—no—and the truth is plain to see. It’s time to move on... don't you stop, don't look back, just get gone. 'Cause I don’t want you... you're not welcome... anymore. While you’re doing nada, kicking rocks... I’m taking out the trash, busy changing the locks.

(Bridge) "Shhh"... don't you say a word. There’s nothing new to say. Nothing I haven't heard (uh huh)... so just get on your way. Go find... another place to stay. Yeah, I want less talk and more walk... baby, we are through. Your excuses hit a dead end at my door. (My door...) I’ve memorized every single word... of this old score. You ain't worth a lick... and I don’t need you anymore! (Just go!)

(Verse 3) Down the road, when the dust has settled... (settled)... don't bother hitting me up. That’ll be just another coffin nail. I don't want your apologies (no)... sorrys will fail (yes). Your excuses are stale. I’m done with the need... to believe. Now all I can feel is the will... to just up and leave. This ain't a game to me; this is my one life (I have one life). And I’m not gonna waste another minute... with a tyrant... being the good wife.

(Outro) Yeah, I’m moving on... (moving on)... yes. I’m done with you. (I’m done.) I’m gone. Don't you even try to hit me up... (nope). 'Cause if you do... you'll get what's up. Yeah, I’m moving on... Just get gone.

(Verse 1) She belts out a tune, a voice both harsh and sweet Takes a pull from her bottle, then stomps her restless feet The windows are open wide, the doors ajar and free No Closed sign here, no minimum drinks and no entry fee The air is thick with smoke, and with a sweet perfume A ghostly breeze, that dances through the crowded room

(Chorus) Oh, the juke joint's jumpin', the seats are all filled This ol' ramshackle place, sounds are filling up the hills Back deep in the bayou, a secret dark romance 'Tween man, the music, and the spirits where the deranged meet and dead now dance

(Verse 2) You'll love the songs they play, and you all seem to get along The lights are low and hazy, and the liquor's twice as strong The sign says, Come on in, welcome to Jukes But what's inside this old place, ain't what it looks Drink till funds are low, you get one on the house when you say its time to go,  Wait 'til the chimes ring four, and they lock the doors Then, it's too damn late

(Pre-Chorus) You have to stay It's your fate, you have to stay Cause no one leaves Jukes, when day breaks No one ever leaves here, when day breaks

(Chorus Repeats)

(Bridge) The final siren wails, a closing mournful cry Then the music's echoes cease, a deathly lullaby As Night spits out day, there ain't no gettin' out All that's left is terror, and your final dying shout

(Outro) (4 Chimes) No one leaves here, that's your fate, When they close the door It's too late Bodies fall to the floor,  Even the souls, have no escape No one ever leaves here, when day breaks, a ghostly fate No one ever leaves here, when day breaks Even you, it's true

Verse 1
My girl karma is coming your way
You'll meet her in a year a month or maybe even today
She's got a method for finding just you no doubt
What you throw out she'll return with a bang watch out
Chorus
What goes around comes back it's a fact
She's like a boomerang always circling back
My girl karma is watching she never forgets
She's always coming to collect on that you can bet
Post Chorus
She collects her debt it's the universal way
Balancing things out night and day
Verse 2
You reap whatcha sow you'll know it's true
When you come home to roost she'll be waiting for you
Wanna die by the sword she'll grant your wish
My girl karma is coming for you sealed with a karmic kiss
Chorus Repeats
Post Chorus Repeats
Bridge
What you throw out she'll return with a bang watch out
Yeah what you throw out she'll return with a bang watch out
She collects her debt it's the universal way
Don’t try her cause my girl don't play
Outro
She has no menu your order’s been on reserve so trust she will serve what you truly deserve
Just be a good person damn
