You'd never know it to look at me here But this is where I gave up Surrounded by beige and succumbing to fear This is where I gave up Making excuses for watery eyes This is where I gave up Skipping the party and lengthy goodbyes This is where I gave up Tell my friends while It may seem uncertain I'm not in danger of hurting myself I’ve just drained the last of this cup Cause this is where I gave up Wandered around til I finally found This is where I gave up Head to the storm clouds and starting to drown This is where I gave up Call to the bullpen, the starter is gassed This is where I gave up This chapter is over, the moment has passed This is where I gave up Tell my friends while It may seem uncertain I'm not in danger of hurting myself I’ve just drained the last of this cup Cause this is where I gave up I gave up Don't let it get you down I gave up Maybe I'll come around I won't come around Growing it in and just letting it go This is where I gave up Freeing to think I don't care if you know This is where I gave up Maybe a good time to drive off the road This is where I gave up Or keep it all in til I finally explode Tell your friends while I might draw the curtain I'm not gone, maybe only flirting with something I could never hope to save up Cause this is where I gave up

Get it Right 03:16
You want to be known but you don't want to be defined To hear that you're pretty but really loved for your mind I know cuz you told me again for the very last time A feather floating to the ground is what you seek A box tied up tall with a bow and no chance to peek A couple more days to append to the following week Did I Get it right? It's something to do with your childhood but you won't say A hobby horse out on a playground on a fall day A story you maybe told once but the memory strayed Your mom and your dad and two sisters and then there was you Alone toward the end when someone hadn't thought it through You drifted off again; that's a thing you do Did I Get it right? you think it's that simple but I think you're wrong Why do you think we've been out here so long Did I get it right? You want to be known but you don't want to be defined You're worried someone else might not like what they find Go ahead and tell me I'm wrong one more time Did I get it right?
