VERSE:
My car got in a wreck, it was a Monday
The weather man said, “don’t expect rain today”
There was a metal scrapyard on the highway
I prayed, oh please let everyone be okay

I leased a Ford Escape parked in the driveway
When I grab the steering wheel my hands shake
Call it a beauty, I’ll call me a taxi
I wanna forget, this unlucky mistake

PRE-CHORUS:
I know, I know this isn’t how it should be
I’m living like a broken record on repeat
Circling but I can’t find the old me

CHORUS:
But than you put your arms around me
And my worries die
Your touch carries me, into the moons lullaby
The world is sorry,
You rest your head next to mine
We’re together under the night sky
You love me, and I love my life
We’re together under the night sky

VERSE:
I’ve been behind four walls since June 17th
The summer days are missing the sight of me
Starring at the ceiling sometimes I can’t move
Deep in my fears, I have everything to prove

My stain glass windows start to pick a fight
The sun in my eyes flash, I’m back in time
I’ve got old memories stealing the limelight
With no red flags or excuse-me to be kind

PRE-CHORUS:

CHORUS:

VERSE:
I didn’t know, I was waiting for you
You walked in, and I was glad to see you
Your ring finger says your off limits
I can’t lie, I wish things were different

I’m reeling guys in and throwing them back
Dating season is a heart attack
You make the hairs on my arms stand up
I want a drink of you, four or five cups

CHORUS:
I’ll be candid,
In another life, I’d pull up like a bandit
I know what I want and I’ll grab it
So, your girl better not take you for granted
And leave you stranded

VERSE:
Wanting you is my private exhibit
The seed is planted, I know your in it
It’s a losing game, you can say less
I don’t need you but I want you, reckless

I try to avoid you when I’m awake
In a blue flame, I can’t catch a break
Whatever I say, it’s true, it’s you
Yeah, taken looks real good on you, come through

CHORUS: 1x

VERSE:
It would be so easy to lose control
And delete all your pictures from my phone
Throw your clothes out on the front porch
Light up my hopes with a blowtorch

I could have let your words break me down
And hide under a blanket making no sound
Or spiral into a black whole
Let my tears build a fortress in my soul

PRE-CHORUS:
You were never my beginning
And you won’t be my end
(No, no, no, oh no)

CHORUS:
I still want me, even if you don’t
The sun is just as bright, as it can be
Even though there’s hurt in my heart
I still need me, even if you don’t
The air invigorates me, I can breathe
Even though your betrayal left me scarred
I still love me, even if you won’t

VERSE:
It would be so easy to let sadness win
Turn on myself because that how it’s been
Shatter my makeup on the floor
So I don’t feel damn gorgeous anymore

I could have let your choice make me small
Cradle myself into the tiniest ball
Shrinking my space in this big world
And no one would know I was your girl


PRE-CHORUS: 1x

CHORUS: 1x
