LYRIC FOR SALE

By Melissa Mykael

VERSE:
I closed the door and tossed the keys to my heart
A time or two, I let my body starve
I didn’t see my phone messages in the dark
Saying another date would be nice, with charm

I guess those guys weren’t the one’s meant for me
I bet, I spared myself a bill for therapy
But I don’t want to live life alone, anymore
Or be a woman afraid of the unknown, therefore

CHORUS:
I’ll take the deception, rehearsed lines and count to ten
Untether my anger from the cheer captain
I’ll memorize the empty in my eyes, from back then
And swear, to take a chance at love again
I’ll take one last look at who I left behind, an old friend
Bandage my wounds when revenge tries to creep, back in
I’ll silence the doubts taunting me, from back then
And swear, to take a chance at love again

VERSE:
The world opens up when you least expect it
With the same view, in a different colour hue
It’s crazy the feels from optimism, I admit
I want to immerse myself with the old but new

I heard a tale, you’ll know when something is yours
Your desire charts the way even the detours
So you won’t need a safety net, not anymore
Or always want more and more to soar, therefore

CHORUS: 1x
