Every year you make it clear you’ll never take it back
Anything I say becomes a way to relaunch your attack
When the sand is running low
Will you come out from your whole
Is there something I don’t know
Let go oh oh
I have said everything I can
Don’t understand
And you know exactly where I stand
It’s in your hands
Let it go
What you waiting for
Why you waiting for me
I am at your door
Sore
Hoping I’m still hoping that you’ll open to a talk
If our blood is thick we’ll make it stick and both have some remorse
If we carry on like this
There’ll be nothing left to give
And it’s not how we should live
Let go oh oh
I have
Said what I said and still no regret
Been the bigger person ego is as small as it gets
I have
Held out my hand tried to make you understand
My side of events but my presence is banned
You have
Shut down calls ‘cause you haven’t got the balls
To address a situation I’m afraid you caused
You have
Spoken to every other person but me
Telling lies trying to make sure that you stay blame free
I have said everything I can
Don’t understand
And you know exactly where I stand
It’s in your hands
Let it go
What you waiting for
Why you waiting for me
I am at your door
Sore
You got me crazy
I don’t see how we can make amends
Don’t usually phase me
All of patience and love spent
All of my care and my trust spent
All the respect and regard went
You didn’t know how much these
Meant meant meant

Dance to Pain

Can’t keep sitting where you left me
Can’t keep holding on to broken glass
Then I’m bleeding heavy
Wishing that I learnt from the past
I know I control this
I know I’m my biggest threat
Still I’m bleeding heavy
Guess I don’t want to give up yet
I give everything
And it’s never joy you bring
To you love I cling
That doesn’t mean a thing
Ever since you went away you’ve been playing on me
Ever since you had your way you’ve been playing with me
Been without without without my trust
Call you back I’m busy ain’t enough
Ohh ohh now I see now I see
Claim to be such a stand up guy
What is done in dark comes to light
Why must I make mistake to know right
Or wait ‘til I break before I say goodbye
Now you’re a joker dance to my pain
To steps closer to you knew flame
It is a pity the man you became
Or maybe worse still that I thought I’m to blame
I gave you everything
And it’s never joy you bring
To you love I cling
That doesn’t mean a thing
Ever since you went away you’ve been playing on me
Ever since you had your way you’ve been playing with me

I Don't Know What's Next

I had it all planned out
When I would say my vows
Be the boss in a blouse
By a beautiful little house
Nothing turned out that way
Chasing a dream delays
Glad I stopped being afraid
No regretting the choice I made
But I don’t know what’s coming next
No fear, no fear, no fear
No I don’t know what’s coming next
No fear, no fear, no fear
But I don’t know what’s coming next
No fear, no fear, no fear
No I don’t know what’s coming next
No fear, no fear, no fear
Thinking about the last ten
I had straight hair back then
Never knew I find love
Or that I would be good enough
Used to walk head right down
All of my smiles were frowns
Couldn’t cope with my skin
But I had to find love within
Now I’m ready for what comes next
No fear, no fear, no fear
Now I’m ready for what comes next
No fear, no fear, no fear
Now I’m ready for whatever comes
No fear, no fear, no fear
