Don't Tell Me

You faded away I was torn at the seams
A bundle of nerves and a bubble of dreams
Figuring out who I was
My songs are about you, didn’t you know
I held my head high so my heart wouldn’t show
All the broken parts I hid in the dark You faded away I was torn at the seams
A bundle of nerves and a bubble of dreams
Figuring out who I was
My songs are about you, didn’t you know
I held my head high so my heart wouldn’t show
All the broken parts I hid in the dark of your room
Don’t tell me who to be
I was young and naive, just past 17
I’ve thought about us and I really believe
I’m done with being anyone else but me
I focused on you as you called my name
Nobody else could’ve said it the same
But starting today, you can’t say it anymore
You were right, all this time passed me by and I’ve totally changed
I’ve stopped tossing and turning but rearranged
My Cluttered heart and the damage you’ve done
I took a moment of silence in the game that I’ve won
Don’t tell me who to be
I was young and naive, just past 17
I’ve thought about us and I really believe
I’m done with being anyone else but me
It’s over now
Your times run out (x2)
Save your texts, save more excuses
I heard you just fine but you don’t hear yourself
You tore me apart but I picked up the pieces
A better me, a better way out (x2)
Don’t tell me who to be
I was young and naive, just past 17
I’ve thought about us and I really believe
I’m done with being anyone else
Don’t tell me who to be
I am strong and I’m ready to chase all my dreams
I hope that you’re out there and see what I mean
I’m done with being anyone else but me

Life been in a kind of holding pattern
Endless delays and dead end runways
Never gaining speed or taking flight
Rain clouds filled my heart, shadows blurred my eyes
You were always there but never mine
Not the right place not the right time
We need to start crossing that line now
I need you now
For me it's you
Always you
You're the missing beat of my heart that I hear in the dark it's true
For me it's you
Do you think that we can bridge this chasm
‘Cause I'm afraid of heights, but this feels so right
I've always been on the outside looking in
What's done is in the past, we can make this last, if you wanna
I'm scared of change, sick of fears of trying
without your touch I feel like I'm dying
But now you're here, I see our fates aligning
Now, let's start this now
For me it's you
Always you
I've known from the start that we can't be apart I need you
Only you
(I always knew you'd come back here)
Always you
(It's been one hell of a long year)
But I still love you dear it's true
For me it's you
Let's not be safe
Let's run away
Let's pack our bags
We'll be okay
For me it's you
Always you
You're the missing beat of my heart that I hear in the dark it's true
Only you
Always you
And I’ve known from the start that we can’t be apart
I need you
I always knew you'd come back here
It's been one hell of a long year
But I still love you dear it's true
For Me It’s You

Mixed Signals

Stopping at a green light
Speeding through the stop signs
With the top down, baby,
All I wanted was for us to drive.
One day you need me
Next day you’re with someone new
Caught up in thinking
Why I’m still talking to you
You love me, you love me not
I hate your mixed signals
had too much of those
Excuses why your heart just froze
Oh babe I just can’t stand
The awkward silence
Voicemail tones
The I-miss-yous
You need to know
I hate your mixed signals
You’re knocking on my front door
In your favorite skinny jeans
Handing me some flowers
Apologizing
for all those things
You didn’t tell me
Your summer flings
they meant nothing to you
But they do to me
I hate your mixed signals
had too much of those
Excuses why your heart just froze
Oh babe I just can’t stand
The awkward silence
Voicemail tones
The I-miss-yous
You need to know
I hate your mixed signals
I’m done with those
You love me, you love me not
You left me, I was an afterthought
You love me, you love me not
You left me, I was an afterthought
I hate your mixed signals
had too much of those
Excuses why your heart just froze
Oh babe I just can’t deal with
The awkward pauses
Cancelled plans
I’m so sorrys
I can’t stand your mixed signals
I hate your mixed signals
