Boomerang

Hate that I can't live apart from you
Seems like when I break your heart
You're back again so soon
Little did I know you were a boomerang
Throw you out and shortly you come back again
We both fight with fire only I get burned
But scars are easily covered up by lessons unlearned
Hopefully the next time I won't ignore the burn
But what if I've been burned so much it doesn't hurt
So let me play with my boomerang
Throw you out till you're sick of the game
Dang, Boomerang, boy you gotta be tired
Cause the games we play take all night and require
You to run your mouth while I hold my breath
Thinking maybe this time we'll call it quits
Dang, Boomerang, how the hell are you not broken?
Cause I toss you around and treat you like a token
Made of shiny plastic and sturdy wood
You would't hurt if you possibly could, Boomerang
At least I can count on you to never leave
Even if my words cut into you till you bleed
I get more creative trying to test your belief
That we were meant to be together endlessly
So let me play with my boomerang
Throw you out till you're sick of the game
Dang, Boomerang, boy you gotta be tired
Cause the games we play take all night and require
You to run your mouth while I hold my breath
Thinking maybe this time we'll call it quits
Dang, Boomerang, how the hell are you not broken?
Cause I toss you around and treat you like a token
Made of shiny plastic and sturdy wood
You would't hurt if you possibly could, Boomerang

The Fall

He walked me to the river
I was lonely and bitter
When my love turned out to be
An unfaithful love
A tale as old as time
I was left to ease my troubled mind
Drinking Jose Cuervo
Out the bottle
"Don't drink alone," he asked of me,
"I'll share in all your pain."
So I let him hold me tenderly
And my sorrow went away
At the fall
I fell
He fell
Well fell
At the fall
In and out of love
That's the way I'd always been
Losing romance one day
And the next day finding it
But this one, he is different
Every time that I am with him
He holds me close and comforts me
Like the other ones didn't
We watched the sun rise overhead
I bask in clarity
He is who, I realize
The others claimed to be
At the fall
I fell
He fell
We fell
At the fall
I broke the string on my mandolin
She knocked on the door, I let her in
My heart was black, my mind was cold
She decided to let me know
We talked until our mouths were dry
She decided to clear my skies
I didn't know I had to do this
I didn't know I had to do this
We didn't know we had to do this on our own
At the fall
At the fall
I fell
He fell
We fell
At the fall

Shallow End
04:18

Way to often I try way too hard to be somebody that I am not
People pleaser get caught up in the theatre of telling you what you wanna hear
But I'd rather talk about the weather than tell you that I've been better
Way too often I mask my emotions
Can't get caught up in that bullshit commotion
So don't come to me for answers
I just want a little chit chat and banter
I'd rather talk about the rain than tell you that I'm in pain
Cause it's easy to live in the shallow end
Make believe and pretend in the shallow end
Ahh
Cause it's easy to live in the shallow end
Make believe and pretend in the shallow end
Way to often I hide my madness
Little do they know I'm the queen of manic
And I don't want your commitment
I just want someone who'll hit it and quit
I'd rather talk about the weather than tell you that I've been fucking better
Cause it's easy to live in the shallow end
Make believe and pretend in the shallow end
Ahh
Cause it's easy to live in the shallow end
Make believe and pretend in the shallow end

Better Than

Where is the love?
Why do you treat yourself this way?
What stole the love?
Remember how it tastes?
Cause you're better than you bedsheets in the middle of the day
Better than the voices telling you you're not okay
You are better than
Where is the love?
I don't recognize this face
What stole the love
And replaced it with hate?
You are better than your worst days
You are brighter than the best
Better than the mistakes that you're caught up in
You are better than
It ain't a long shot
Make it happen
Would it kill you to believe in yourself for a change
Instead of drowning in the rain
Learn to dance, you gotta try cause I won't let you cry
You are better than
Remember what you love
It's underneath the pain
Embrace what you love
And you'll never have to change
You are better than your bedsheets in the middle of the day
Better than the voices telling you you're not ok
You are better than

It's Still Me

I can tell that something isn't right in my mind
I'm slipping off the edge when last week I was climbing
So will you lift me up?
I know it's not your job, but I would do the same for you
Cause here and now I need someone to be stronger than me
And I don't think that makes me weak to have someone stronger than me
Thank you, I can see you want to help
But don't know what to say cause you've only been around me when I'm smiling
Could you just be yourself?
I'm acting kind of strange, but it's still me
It's still my body. I still have dreams just like anybody
It's still me the same old wanderer.
The same old free spirited believer in happy endings
I'm just stuck in the part of the story where I get knocked down
So lift me up
Now that you have seen me at my worst
Can you find any reason that you'd want to come over tonight?
Don't want to talk it out. I'd really rather sit and watch T.V.
You there beside me, a glass of wine and your hand within mine
Cause here and now I need someone to be stronger than me
And I don't think that makes me weak...
It's still me the same old wanderer.
The same old free spirited believer in happy endings
I'm just stuck in the part of the story where I get knocked down
So lift me up
