not me crying before she even starts singing :)

This song (and performance) has so much feeling to it – you just sink into this lovely pool of sadness for 3 minutes, and you don’t want to get out

for God sake where is "their altar" that song is my hope to live

let's try this

10 am; gare du nord

a song about change,,


 now on spotify & itunes x

so small and so quiet

Parking Spaces

i wrote this a month ago i think lol


the birds got a lot to say

i’ve always tried my best
to fit in with all the rest 
but not when it came to the feelings in my chest
always thought no one could ever love me
just too damaged at the seams
of what it meant to be a functional human being
i always told myself
that i would never let, never let my guard down
not gonna lie
i was doing pretty fine
but things are starting to change now
and ever since 
first saw what i 
thought was that innocent smile
and how you looked at me like
you had just seen
someone important but you couldn’t point it out
how would I know
how could I know
how far you’d turn my life around
loving you is fool’s gold
only fools will pay the price
to take a chance and make it
or just leave empty handed
you talk with so much luster
but really deep down under
your words are coated with cheap paint
you made me feel some way
and i’m the one to blame
no one else but me
the sweetest things often give cavities
to kids just too naive, full of innocence
my room’s dark now
tv’s on with no sound
i fell right through my bed
when sleep kissed me instead
why did you have to
look right through
me when i didn’t mean a thing to you
the thoughts in your head
could have unsaid
answers to the questions you left
unaddressed
but loving you is fool’s gold
only fools will pay the price
to take a chance and make it
or just leave empty handed
you talk with so much luster
but really deep down under
your words are coated with cheap paint

fool's gold

I've built a wall around me, a row of drying trees and the front porch chair 
no one else was there 

You felt like patience to me, sipping on chai tea and the blue breeze 
you said you would be there 

And there is so much healing to be done 
but so much strength to come 
of this 

Uncertainty surrounds me , since I loved you when my guard was down 
I brought me down 

I get nervous in a crowd, since I don't know who I am now 
the moon was golden brown and 
you couldn't wait for me 
to get better 

There is so much healing to be done 
but so much strength to come 
of this

chai tea season

broadripple is burning

I want to love someone new
Keep the cold out, I can feel her move

Honey, you left doubt right on my tongue 
with nothing to cling to
Every right word fell right out your lungs
Am I ahold of you?

I want to live somewhere new
Lie to myself, say the cause was you

I'll swear to God, you'll break her heart
ten times more harsh
Bittersweet ending to what we'll call
a mistake on my part

I want to love someone new
Keep coming back, they'll believe you

Honey

second single off birdhouse, might be the last
__
punch drunk
hot poison in your cup
arms are heavy, getting weak at the knees
what the fuck?
lazy eyes they size me up
you look like you don’t recognize me

teenager things, we’re not allowed to be serious
vibrant we dream, but we're mocked for pursuing it

but i wanna grow up, i wanna grow up
i wanna grow up, oh
i wanna grow up, don’t wanna show up
to some party drinking liquor for show

i’m a woman, i’m a woman
i’m not your baby girl, and i don’t wanna be
i’m a woman, i’m a woman
i wanna watch you grow into a man with me

choked up
see a girl you wanna fuck
i’m just crying, and you’re laughing at me
i’ve had enough
i just wanna call your bluff
stop, i know you’ll miss me

teenager things, we’re not allowed to be serious
vibrant we dream, but we're mocked for pursuing it

you don’t wanna grow up, you don’t wanna grow up
you don’t wanna grow up with me
you don’t wanna grow up, you just wanna roll up
to that party with your liquor and weed

aren’t i your woman? i’m your woman
am i your baby girl, do you want me to be?
i was your woman, your lovely woman
but while you chase your thrills, you walk right by me

birdhouse

i'm on the bathroom floor

this is for the girl that makes me feel like i have the sun in my chest.
i love you.

Lyrics

I think we get creative with this
Feel like a child on their toes
Secrets spill right out of me
I want to feel more good things
and you're a good thing

I'm feeling myself, more than I've known
I'm feeling so much
More than I let on
I'm feeling biased
You, and what I'm used to
and I won't pry it out of you
just to see, "what kind of lonely are you?"
I wanna pride in what I saw in you

I wanna be acquainted with this
Know everything, she let's me bend
And it's familiar, her on my skin
say that I love her, and let her in

I'm feeling myself, more than I've known
I'm feeling so much
More than I let on
I'm feeling biased
You, and what I'm used to
and I won't pry it out of you
just to see, "what kind of lonely are you?"
I wanna pride in what I saw in you

Feeling like the sun's in my chest
Losing all of this false pretense
only to hold onto you

Honey
