Trouble

I always say this, but this is my new fave song that I've written. <3

V1.

You're trying to pull me under

and it's not working very well

I have to keep my head above it

I won't walk around on shells

 

My heart survived a ransack,

and a fire, and a fall

And if I could keep you one promise,

it's that I'll get past that wall

 

Bridge:

And it's too late to tell me

that I shouldn't hate what I've seen

 

And I won't sit here and listen

to what you think I'm missing

 

Chorus:

Go ahead and walk it off

You're gonna forgive yourself one day

 

Don't turn around, just knock it off

 

I won't be back anymore

You permanently slammed the door on me

and I'm gone, not forever,

but you're gonna be a better person

and I hope you learned from me

I hope the next girl you see,

well I hope I've saved her some trouble

 

V2.

You're trying to start a fire

and your flames are flickered out

Your deal already expired,

so go on, find a new route

 

My mind survived a trainwreck,

and I pulled through it all

If you could've kept a promise,

I wouldn't have felt so small

 

Bridge:

And it's too late to tell me

that I should give up on my freedom

 

And it's too late to think I'm running back

to what you think I lack

 

(Back to chorus)

 

Bridge:

You might have thought I'd still be broken

You might have thought you'd been forgotten

But I still remember, and although I forgive you

I won't take back someone who thought

I didn't deserve them

 

(Back to chorus....)
