Bomb 03:44
I could be sitting at the table I could be watching a commercial I could be distracted on a phone call And then you hit me like a brick wall One text is all it takes You’re like a bomb And I’ll never be the same My heart just blown away In the middle of the day You’re like a bomb Thought I was doing ok My heart just blown away In the middle of the day You’re like a bomb I bet you’re doing alright Moving on with your best life While I’m dreaming about you every damn night It’s like you’re hiding out in my mind One text is all it takes You’re like a bomb And I’ll never be the same My heart just blown away In the middle of the day You’re like a bomb Thought I was doing ok My heart just blown away In the middle of the day I’m so angry with the power you hold I’m trying to move on and let go I just wanna let down my guard Without falling apart One text is all it takes You’re like a bomb And I’ll never be the same My heart just blown away In the middle of the day You’re like a bomb Thought I was doing ok My heart just blown away In the middle of the day You’re like a bomb

I guess I’m lucky that I’m starting where I am I’ll be ok if I’m not rigid with a plan I’ll be ok if I don’t listen to a man Because I’ve learned what matters God know that we’re all taught that the Epitome Of humanity Looks like youth, and fame, and money But you come to find That you can make a life Just outside the lines And still be satisfied If I can’t do it the way I want, then I don’t want to do it all I guess I’m lucky I got people in my life I know they they love me even when I’m not alright They love me when I’m not productive like I’d like They let me know that matters God knows we’re taught that worthiness And happiness Is based on our success And there’s just one way to get it But you come to find That you can make a life Just outside the lines And still be satisfied If I can’t do it the way I want, then I don’t want to do it all Somebody once sat me down and said I was being lazy ‘Cause I spent a Friday night at home with my baby That mentality It used to work on me, well It hasn’t been working on me lately If I can’t do it the way I want, then I don’t want to do it all

Have I lost my touch? Do I think too much? Am I too late, or too old? Tell me, did I miss the boat? Am I out of luck? Gotta remind myself what I know so well There are a thousand ways to get there Even if it takes a hundred failed attempts That hundred and first try The one that you get right Oh it feels so good And maybe there are a thousand ways to get there And I’ll get there when I should Still, it’s hard to see When there’s no one like me But I’m used to the unknown And I feel so at home when I’m standing solitary Gotta remind myself what I know so well There are a thousand ways to get there Even if it takes a hundred failed attempts That hundred and first try The one that you get right Oh it feels so good And maybe there are a thousand ways to get there And I’ll get there when I should Oh my memory’s broken Yeah, it’s telling me lies Just ‘cause it hasn’t happened yet Doesn’t mean there won’t be a first time With a million ways to get there I know I’m gonna find a bit of happiness That hundred and first try that’s taken your whole life Oh it feels so good And maybe there are a thousand ways to get there And I'll get there There are a thousand ways to get there Even if it takes a hundred failed attempts That hundred and first try That's taken your whole life Oh it feels so good And maybe there are a thousand ways to get there And I’ll get there when I should

Wild Woman 03:00
Woke up in January The whole year laid out for me Kicked off that month with very lofty goals and bigger dreams Woke up in late December Back where i used to be Still nothing done, I wonder, what’s the missing puzzle piece? I sit alone at home Paralyzed by the fear of what could wrong Too scared to take a chance Where’s that wild woman? She used to live inside of me But that’s in the past She’s gone and she’ll never come back Old dresses in the closet They’re just collecting dust I worked for years to break down doors Only to let ‘em shut Can’t make a plan and I can’t get it off the ground Can’t look at pictures from the past without me breaking down I sit alone at home Paralyzed by the fear of what could wrong Too scared to take a chance Where’s that wild woman? She used to live inside of me But that’s in the past She’s gone and she’ll never come back Woke up in mid-September Just shy of 32 Some fucking throwback Thursday Popped up and killed my mood That woman in the photo Feels like a stranger now She’s so naive, she doesn’t know how much I let her down I sit alone at home Paralyzed by the fear of what could wrong Too scared to take a chance Where’s that wild woman? She used to live inside of me But that’s in the past She’s gone and she’ll never come back

Someone else’s coat is keeping me warm tonight Someone else’s skirt isn’t fitting me right Someone else’s mouth is saying the things you like I gotta keep that someone around if I’m gonna live this lie Is it time to tell the truth That I’m just not myself with you? You don’t even know who I am And you’ll never understand I’m just performing in a mask whenever you’re around And I hide everything that I am In my elaborate plan to keep you happy and content But you don’t know who I am Looking at my life, you could divide it up Draw a line between who I am with you and who I was How many stifled opinions ‘till I hide ‘em all? How many lies ‘till I look around, not knowing who I’ve become? Is it time to break the news That I’m just not myself with you? You don’t even know who I am And you’ll never understand I’m just performing in a mask whenever you’re around And I hide everything that I am In my elaborate plan to keep you happy and content But you don’t know who I am Whenever we’d make plans I dreaded them I’d spend the night before just crying on the shower floor Through all that pain I’m forever changed I’d make a bet that you’re exactly who you were before You don’t even know who I am And you’ll never understand I’m just performing in a mask whenever you’re around And I hide everything that I am In my elaborate plan to keep you happy and content But you don’t know who I am
