LYRICS

I didn't want to say so
But when you left I didn't mind
It's not that I didn't like you
You just kind of wasted my sweet time
And honey, it's okay
You can say the same thing about me
'Cause I know we both know that 
You and I weren't meant to be

It's okay, it's alright
It wouldn't be the first time
Something didn't work out right
You're not to blame
No, and neither am I
It's just easy to let go
When we both know

I didn't want to admit
But you just weren't doing it for me
We could've been a good fit
If things were the way we made them seem
But there's always a price
You were always so nice
But the fire wasn't there
And I know we both know that
You can't spark a fire out of air

It's okay, it's alright
It wouldn't be the first time
A flame didn't ignite
You're not to blame
No and neither am I
It's just easy to let go
When we both know

We both know we had our day
And we can both just walk away
We both know it's better this way
We both know there's nothing at stake
Nothing to give, and nothing to take
We both know our hearts won't break...

And it's ok, it's alright
It wouldn't be the first time
Something didn't take flight
You're not to blame
No neither am I
It's just easy to let go
When we both know

When we both know...

We both know we had our day
And we can both just walk away
We both know our hearts won't break...

We Both Know

Black holes as far as I can see
What can I do to end this endless misery
My broken heart keeps wishing on stars
But the sun comes out and I'm right back to the start

Everything I do I find I'm running from myself
I'm trapped inside this hollow shell as far as I can tell

Can you feel my apathy
Locked my soul inside a cell
So I don't have to feel a thing, feel a thing
Feeling apathy
I am nothing but a shell
No I'm nothing but a ghost of who I wanna be
And no one sees me...

Cold world, still it burns like hell
Threw all my hope inside a dried up wishing well
I wanna feel that fire, that burning desire
But the sun goes down and the darkness rules the sky

I look into the mirror, I don't recognize myself
How do I break free from my own self-inflicted hell

Lost inside my apathy
Locked my soul inside a cell
So I don't have to feel a thing, feel a thing
Feeling apathy
I am nothing but a shell
No I'm nothing but a ghost of who I wanna be
And no one sees me...

I'm locked inside a cell
A self-inflicted hell
Wish I were someone else
Can't even help myself

Can you feel my apathy
Locked my soul inside a cell
So I don't have to feel a thing, feel a thing
Feeling apathy
I am nothing but a shell
No I'm nothing but a ghost of who I wanna be
And no one sees me...

Black holes as far as I can see

Apathy

I wrote this song about the power of choice. It's so easy to get caught up in the winds of blame--to redirect responsibility towards outside forces. But when it comes down to it, YOU are the only one who can change your story. You can either tell your story from a place of defense, pointing at others to explain circumstances, or you can own it. Own it, accept it, and tell a new story. Only you can set yourself free.

LYRICS:

What'd you do? What'd you say? Where'd you go?
Why'd you hide from all that you know?
We all know the truth can hurt, but I won't say a word

Don't you worry your heart away
You're gonna need it again someday
We all get off track now and then, you just gotta choose when

You are done with all you've done
Your life's gonna feel like it's just begun
Just stick with it now, although it's hard to see
But only you, only you can set yourself free

If you ever feel alone
Feel like you've lost sight of home
I'm here each step of the way, and when you struggle I'll say

When you are done with all you've done
Your life's gonna feel like it's just begun
Fight through it now, I know it's hard to see
But only you, only you can set yourself free

You're gonna want to, but don't run
You're gonna want to undo all the victories you've won
You're gonna want to, but don't run
Just take it one by one...
And one day

You're gonna be done with all you've done
You're gonna feel like your life has just begun
Fight for it now, I promise that you'll see
The day you set yourself free


Set Yourself Free

This song is groovy :). 

Lyrics:
What does it take for you to take a chance on me?
All I want is you to hold me close, say, "You're the one for me"
Please don't be polite, stay another night
I know you feel it too
We could mess up the sheets on repeat

[Chorus]
Oh I just don't know
Where we're headed now, but I just don't care
Take me there
Lead me anywhere
'Cause with you, I'm me
And I'm free as can be
Take me there

Mmm mmm...

Now we're flying high through a clear blue sky
Feeling right
And if it don't right now, you know it will tonight (tonight)
If you could only see what you do to  me
When you don't even try
I'll tell you right now, right now it feels right

[Chorus]

Won't you hear me out
We're on the right track, baby
There aint no doubt
We could take it slow
As long as we're together anything goes...

When I'm with you I feel like I could do anything
But when I'm with you I'm happy doing nothing

[Chorus]

Take Me There

Lyrics:

Guess I was wrong about you
Thought you were different, wouldn't leave me in a mess
But you just thought about you
Oh, and that girl in the slutty dress

I wasn't asking for much
Just one to hold me and to mean what he told me
But you have shown me you're such a liar
Gonna make you wish you never started this fire

What made you think I wouldn't see
You kissing her in front of me

[Chorus]
I can't believe I believed you were wonderful
That I could want some one who'd do something so pitiful
I can't believe you believed it would be okay today
I confess I obsessed but you went with it
You could have said no, but instead you led me on a bit
I guess it's time for me to face it
My time and you were wasted

Can't even look at you right now
'Cause all I see is the back of her head
And I'll never understand how you were thinking
Was she worth this?
No, you were just drinking

[Chorus]

You did me wrong, strung me along
Now it's my turn to play
And all you'll do is wish this away
You did me wrong, now it won't be too long
Before you're sorry you never said you're sorry

[Chorus}

Guess I was wrong about you...

Wasted

Lyrics:

If I had a nickel for each time I thought of you
Well, I would give it all in pennies for your thoughts, too
And I'd sit in rapture while you explain
The little things that drive you insane
And we'd go on for hours on end
And you'd be worth every penny I spend

I know everything that makes you tick
You always say that love, it makes you sick
I've watched you go and paint the town
With girls who do not stick around
You think you're lost but you can't see
You're already where you ought to be

[Chorus]
And I'm drawing you maps
To my heart and your happiness
So maybe, with a magnifying glass
You can see the obvious
'Cause we were meant to be
And someday I will make you feel that
Anything's possible, fearless feeling I get
When I'm with you
And if you're looking for something that will last
I'm drawing you maps

I got a million reasons to stay
And you have a million ways to make my day
You have dreams of something new
And I wanna make those dreams come true
But babe, you know that love is blind...
So I'm making it easier to find

[Chorus]

You're the only one who doesn't see
Even strangers see our compatibility
So hurry up before they ruin the surprise
Open your eyes

[Chorus]

If I had a nickel for each time I thought of you
Well, I would give it all in pennies for your thoughts, too

Maps

So there's this song. Don't ask me how, but it just kind of started writing itself. I would be like, "No, song! You are not happening." And then a few weeks later it would trick me into writing more. I resisted, but the dang thing kept haunting me until it was all penned and proper. Or improper. Whatever. It won.

Song say: Psst! Download me!
