Unwanted and Unnoticed

***This is for my girl, Christine <3***

When we are together
It’s just you and me baby.
How can you make me feel
Like the only girl that mattered?

And you treat me so good one minute,
Just to turn it around,
Ignore me the next.
How can’t you see
What you mean to me?

Chorus:
Drawing me in
Just to spit me out
Unwanted and unnoticed.
I know it’s partly my fault—

‘Cause I had to end up having
Just the slightest bit of feelin’.
I don’t know how…
How much more that I can take
Before, I finally break.

I gave you all my love,
All of what I am.
And you threw it in my face
Like you never gave a damn.

Chorus

Because I let you walk in
Making the room yours.
It was all an act,
And every word a lie.

Honey, I give up
I am not a toy.
Every one deserves a love
But you are not my one.
I’m done giving you a chance.

Drawing me in
Just to spit me out
Unwanted and unnoticed
I know, but it’s no longer my fault.

What it Wants


You’re not mine,
I can’t state a claim.
If someone wants you
I’ll have to sit on the sidelines.

Chorus:
Here’s the truth of the tale,
The heart wants what it wants,
Emotions and attractions
Open my eyes.

I like it when you come to me,
Your touch makes me feel alive—
You send an electric current
And I give in.

Chorus

I won’t make you choose
It’s not right to say it’s me or the other,
I just ask that there’s honesty,
Embrace what you’re given.

Chorus

Take what you want,
I’ll keep your secrets.

Won't Go Back


Last year, I probably would’ve said yes.
Take you back even if it couldn’t work.
Deal out multiple second chances.
So I could always hold onto you.

Chorus:
But now, you wouldn’t know me
I’m no longer the same
And I’m not going back to who I was,
And even though a piece of me
Still loves you like an everlasting flame,
I won’t go back, no I ain’t going back.

Press rewind and take in all the memories,
Nostalgia’s a bitch, don’t I know it.
Hear people talking about hurt and pain,
And all of them think staying and returning is going to be worth it.

Chorus

Don’t come crawling to me,
I won’t care if you bring me flowers, begging on your knees.
You may think my heart’s grown cold,
Truth is, I just did what I had to, became stronger.

Chorus

I won’t go back to me and you.

Not Gonna


I don’t hear you.
I don’t see you.
And then there you are;
I’m not gonna hide.

Coming in, you want to fix things,
But there’s not much that you can do,
After you smashed my heart like broken glass.

Chorus:
There’s no fixing to what you broke before.
There’s no changing back after all this hurt.
I’m not the one that made you my world.
I can’t let you in, I’m done giving chances.

Some of my friends,
All agree, you’ve downgraded.
What does the other have to offer
When I gave you everything?

People have it in their heads,
That I’m gonna take you back,
But I’m smarter than that.

Chorus

Not Gonna Heal This

I want to be your shooting star;
But I've finally come to terms--
To the realization,
That it's a fruitless wish.

I just get to be my own star,
Another nomad in this busy world.
Dreams are something written in the sand,
Wishes another penny in the well with my eyes closed.
But I wouldn't be me,
If I didn't keep on loving anyway.
Chorus:
Kisses aren’t gonna heal this.
Sweets aren’t gonna dull it or make it go away.
Only love can heal this pain,
But I’m not sure who’s love it will take.

Sometimes I cry,
Because I hate myself—
You know what it feels like,
The world swallows you whole.

Open up, I try
But in the end there’s always
A river that’s flowing—
Whether it be on the surface
Or buried deep for no one to see, but me.

Chorus

Kisses aren’t gonna heal this.
I’m not sure who’s love it will take.
