Something to Say

Tell me what you need
what you want now, honey
I believe that I could be anywhere else
Leaving takes guts
and a lot more money
Who you gonna tell when you figure it out?
Can you say goodbye
to all you’re knowing?
Five years only leading up to today
The hurt still hurts
and the growth keeps growing
Bridges don’t burn, they crumble away
Feelin real low
in the Crescent City
Sometimes you only want people around
Are you slept on
or you’re just a shitty
wannabe in an indifferent town?
Telling me that New York’s
overrated
Doesn’t feel like they need anyone else
Needing more green
makes your tongue more jaded
How could you think about leaving the South?
Something to say
Oh, you’re looking at me
You ask me if I’m okay
and I say “yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I’m alright”
Something to say
I wonder if you think I’m right
Wait, I’ve something to say
You know that I like you,
but I’m moving so slow
I’m starting to think that it’s all about to change for us
But it’s strange
I’m not in my place
I’m not gonna lie to you
I’ve been holding onto all of my pain
I think it’s time I start letting go

Lose Control

I know my way around a bad luck streak
stumbling through the rain again
signal right behind me
When I go out alone
I give myself
The space to think about being
alone with someone else
But I don’t wanna lose control
“No,” he said
“That’s what you need the most”
Luxury could be a simple thing
when all the complication
is marked by change
When I try keeping everything in place
the pressure only builds on me
and then I break
There’s so much more for me to get through
How can I take on it all?
Am I a fool to think that loving you
Could help me figure it out?
But I don’t wanna lose control
“No,” he said
“That’s what you need the most”
No, I don’t wanna lose control
There’s pieces of me all over the kitchen floor
Have I lost control?
