She Sings Songs

1.
VERSE 1: What good am I if I can't save you, if I can't save you like he would I hear the stories and bathe in glory but I feel like I'm firewood. CHORUS: I'm not happy til these people are happy But they're never happy til they've got somebody to blame Day after day, they're all the same blankets of blame on the bed that I made I'm not finished til I say I'm finished But the people in this city always have an angle to play Day after day, finding new ways And blankets of blame on this bed of complaints VERSE 2: I feel the movement and move on through it I'm learning who I want to be This heavy heart lifts and hope surrounds it I'm being who I want to be CHORUS 2: It's not over til I say it's over But the moment that I know and I always have to explain No one's to blame and people are strange These blankets of blame fall on all just the same I don't want to but I always have to And I always get involved because nobody knows how to trade Day after day, always the same These common complaints shifting blankets of blame
2.
VERSE 1: I'm always happy on the outside And mostly happy on the inside I think together we'll be just right I think, I think together we'll be so right PRE CHORUS 1: Every time we get close it's not quite there, but just almost And I wish we were together like we're not so Maybe we'll get together in a month or two VERSE 2: You're always quiet on the outside I'm always screaming on the inside, outside I never know if you are alright I wish, I wish when it was our time PRE CHORUS 2: Every time we get close it's not quite there, but just almost And I wish we weren't just comfortable like old clothes Maybe we'll be together in a month or so CHORUS: You don't say anything and I say too much What a pair we make, what a pair we'd make You could go anywhere and I'd go with you I think I almost need you, I think I want to need to BRIDGE: Who'd have thought we'd stuck together Through the good times and the slightly less good times Not "together" or whatever Here's to the good times, the good times
3.
VERSE 1: Here on the wings of the clouds I take in the oceans below I exist so alone I appreciate all that you've done CHORUS: The way I see it if I wanted a shot to really be happy I'd just stop questioning the way I'm gonna end up lonely tonight The way you need me but I'm cold and alone And I'm skimming the surfaces of a storm front Raises on my eyes I'm gonna dry them off tonight VERSE 2: I hold the weight of the world So tired are my shoulders but you Look at me with those eyes Like no one could notice at all Does nobody notice at all? BRIDGE: Am I really finding home? After all these years of being alone? And okay, maybe I'll stay But you've got to understand, I'm changing who and what I am When I say...
4.
VERSE 1: I love you and pancakes And not necessarily in that order If you mess with me I will break your legs Who knew we'd be so close And yet somehow there's no way you don't see it If you mess with my friends I will shatter your legs CHORUS: I seem so strong when I'm around you Through everything I still adore you I look at you and have the best view I'm always here and waiting for you VERSE 2: Sometimes when I know you're not looking I sit and day dream like I would when I'm sleeping A recurring dream Tell me what it means Who knew we'd be teammates And so much more if we need it You can't break my heart Well you could, but don't I'm begging you BRIDGE: We are meant to be and yet I can't find the words When you're close to me I feel like I'm off with the birds You invade my dreams and we're fighting to survive What is what will be when we live out both our lives
5.
VERSE 1: I've got so many questions You could say that I was Born yesterday I've got so many secrets Hidden in my hard drives Or my mind CHORUS 1: Now comes the hard part Explaining the who and what I am VERSE 2: Tell me all about your teammates What is it we're doing? What happened here? Quickly, put you in the dumpster Hide you from the watchers I'll explain it later CHORUS 2: Now comes the hard part Explaining the who and what to you Now comes the worst part When I might lose my new friend BRIDGE 1: You're taking this really well And I can't tell, if it has sunk in I'm not who you thought I was So let's press pause, or start this over And then in this interview Come clean to you, I'm not a real girl Even though I've got no strings Or anything, or everything BRIDGE 2: Got no strings! No strings on me! BRIDGE 3: I believe that we'll figure it out, figure this out Got to believe that we'll figure it out, figure it out
6.
VERSE: We weren’t always friends when we met at first Trust is hard to mend, gone from bad to worse CHORUS: Everyone gets angry, at least from time to time And sometimes we go crazy and let out what’s inside But everyone needs everyone to not be eye for eye Cause in the end we’re only making ourselves blind VERSE 2: You and I are friends You and her are more Love cannot be bent It’s an open door BRIDGE: You can play with fire but don’t you toy with me Cause you are my desire, we’re something don’t you see? But time and trust are things that we require to heal and mend And time and trust are things that we just cannot learn to bend. CHORUS 2: Everyone gets lonely when they’re away from home And everyone gets homesick when they are on their own But everyone needs everyone to try and get along Cause in the end we’re only as weak as we are strong
7.
VERSE 1: So this is it, I must admit That you're constantly surprising me With how you turn up constantly Don't be naive, you can't believe That he even told you everything And yet you're acting so convinced CHORUS 1: So I made my plans, and I made demands You're slipping through my hands, and as you land I know it's all my fault, and in this vault I think I've never wanted anything as much as I want you to understand VERSE 2: What can I say? You think you're brave But you're only standing up to me Misguided misplaced loyalty I never thought, of all I want That a daughter was amongst the things But now you are my everything CHORUS 2: So I made my plans, and I made demands You're slipping through my hands, and as you land I know it's all my fault, and in this vault I know I've never needed anything as much as I need you to understand
8.
VERSE 1: Okay, so I care a little more than what I let show No big deal here but sometimes I think I should tell you We could be more than whatever it is that we are right now Or not, I guess. Gotta get a grip on my heart now CHORUS: Cause it keeps skipping beats and I never retreat But you are giving me something to think about And this just isn't me, I'm worried about things Things I never thought that I would worry about VERSE 2: Oh great, I'm here with you as the sun is setting Seems so perfect, but something always seems to happen When will I get a tiny moment to myself with With you, without them? (Gotta get a grip on my heart now) LAST CHORUS: Cause it keeps skipping beats and I never retreat And you are giving me so much to think about
9.
VERSE 1: So you could say I didn't want to be this way But I've got work to and next to you I never seem to rate And I believe You wear your heart out on your sleeve But this is war for now And I'm going down If I make it out we're safe CHORUS: No you don't understand What I'm doing for you so baby Go pick up your hand I can't hide from the truth I'm saving you and all your friends I'm saving you and all your friends VERSE 2: And by the way When I asked if you would stay I know I came on strong, and it played out wrong What I wanted was my way You'll never know All the reasons I let go But you are stronger now Had to go to ground I guess the future's yet to show BRIDGE: I just want you to want me (I want to) I just need you to need me (I need to) (Tell you that but you'd never hear it from me)
