Kept it Inside

You came in and my heart stopped.

I asked the bartender to pour me another shot.

You knew I was there,

You couldn’t stop looking.

Chorus:

I wanted to scream.

I wanted to rage.

I wanted to cry.

Biting my tongue,

Holding my breath.

I kept it inside.

It was a knife to my chest the moment you kissed her.

A stranger that I didn’t know.

You keep sayin’ that you love me.

But your actions are tellin’ a different story.

Chorus

Don’t keep playing with me.

I’m gonna be pulling away.

You might have thought that I’d always stay,

But I stopped waiting on you.

Chorus

I’m gone.

I’m going.

You broke us

With a married woman.

Chorus

Biting my tongue,

Holding my breath.

Biting my tongue,

Holding my breath.

I kept it inside.

When I Said I'd Be Alright

I won’t be here, when you come home

I’m sorry, but I had to go.

I loved you like dew on the night grass

Giving my heart up like Alice and her looking glass.

Chorus:

The only lie I ever told

Was when I said I’d be alright

But here I am, feeling cold

Praying for some sunlight

So instead of staying home,

I’m driving away on my own.

You gave me pieces of you

The kind I didn’t know how to glue.

Promised me everything would be alright in the end

The only thing I can find is memories in the sand.

Chorus

Passion flowed between us like silent fire

I never thought I’d feel something so dire.

I can’t look back now without chancing tears

Falling in love’s now my biggest fear.

Chorus

The only lie I ever told

Has left me, feeling cold

So instead of staying home,

I’m driving away, driving away, on my own.
