Judging by your eyes
It's so clear to me
That you see black and white
In pages of make believe
I guess imagination let you down
When your ever after hit the ground
But whoever said this was an easy story?
Never told you your fragile heart could break
Never said there'd be a definite ending
I know it's hard to take
But this is how it goes when love don't go your way
You never saw it coming
Just did as you were told
And the hand you always wanted
Would be the one to bruise your heart of gold
Apprehension ties you to the tracks
The villain that still holds you back
The story can't turn backwards
And these pages won't burn faster
So look up, let go and break through the lies
And give it another try
Nobody said this was an easy story
And there's a chance that your fragile heart could break
There may never be a definite ending
It's something you've learned to take
But this is how it goes when love don't go your way

Slow Down

Slow down, darling
I know your mind just can't stop
Your eyes show you're feeling
Trapped in life again
Your fears they still hold you
At 4 am the panic starts
Your tears swell, ready
To pour down like rain
Give up a minute of your crazed emotion
To let a little of that bright life shine through
Don't be afraid to lose yourself in moments
Slow down, slow down for awhile
Your dreams they consume you
But love, you lose yourself in them
Stand up, I can't see you falling down again
Give up a minute of your crazed emotion
To let a little of that bright life shine through
Don't be afraid to lose yourself in moments
Slow down, just slow down
You're moving faster than your heart can handle
No need for racing 'cause there ain't no finish line
Breathe in deep and let the calm surround you
Slow down, slow down awhile

Armor

It's tearing me down again
I'm unraveling
He's severing my soul
And I know
The fight is draining me
The battle always stings
It's hard to be the light
Under this veil that covers me
But my heart is willing now to lose a little
Even if it means I'll have to fail a lot
When my shield is not that strong
And I can't hold back the force of you
You keep stringing me along
And I don't want to find the end if it leads to you
It's hard to not believe
The lies you're feeding me
Burning my design
Oh, and everything that I can be
You're beating hard to break the armor
That will only push me farther
Just let me breathe
Just let me be
Please set me free
Just set me free
But I just won't choose the end

I Got This

You watched me fall so fast for you
Then watched all our plans fall through
But I've moved on to better days
Not gonna live that way
Save your pity for someone else
No one's buying what you're trying to sell
I got one song playing on the radio
Two days to get to where I gotta go
And three little words you never wanted to hear
Is that I got this, I got this, I got this
I bet I got you so confused
You thought I'd wait around for you
I told you once told you a thousand times
I don't play games; I don't read minds
Wonder if you'll ever miss me
But I know you'll miss your car keys
I got one song playing on the radio
Two days to get to where I gotta go
And three little words you never wanted to hear
Is that I got this, I got this, I got this
Take it or leave it attitude
Doing all the things I always wanted to do
And the four wheels I took because you dared me to go
And now I got this, I got this, I got this
Never again, never again, never again

Inside of Your Heart

Within those four walls that you built
You're hiding something from me
The door is locked, I'm in the dark
Still searching for the key
But I just wanna know you
Just wanna know who you are
Let me feel that it's you
Let me learn every part
Can't you see this is real
And the past is not your fault
Show me now what love looks like
On the inside of your heart
I know you've been here before
In your comfort all alone
Living out the lie you chose
Playing house without a home
