No I’m not a victim
No I’m not a victim
I’d do it all again
Just to be right where I am
No I’m not a victim
No I’m not a victim
I'd do it all again
Just to be right where I am
No I’m not a victim
No I’m not a victim

Call Me Out
05:23
|

Why is it that I feel the most when I am broken
Sleepless nights awake the ghosts that I’ve been holding
Please take a moment, pray my love, I feel I’m choking
What’s deep inside is coming up and I can’t hold it
So call me out this time
Call me out this time
Let me hear it
Just cut the ties, hang me out to dry
Don’t even throw me a rope
I’m drowning, can’t you see me
I’m losing air, can’t tread any longer
So call me out this time
Call me out this time
Then leave me alone
Why is it that I feel the most when I am broken
Sleepless nights awake the ghosts that I’ve been holding
Please take a moment, pray my love, I feel I’m choking
What’s deep inside is coming up and I can’t hold it
So call me out this time
Call me out this time
Let me hear it
Just cut the ties, hang me out to dry
Don’t even throw me a rope
I’m drowning, can’t you see me
I’m losing air, can’t tread any longer
So call me out this time
Call me out this time
Then leave me alone
Call me out this time
Call me out this time
Then leave me alone
I’ll hurt you if I’m not willing to hurt you
Because the truth untold will eventually lie
I’ll hurt you if I’m not willing to hurt you
Because the truth untold will eventually lie
Yes I’ll hurt you if I’m not willing to hurt you
Because the truth untold will eventually lie
Yes I’ll hurt you if I’m not willing to hurt you
Because the truth untold will eventually lie
So call me out this time
Call me out this time
Let me hear it
Just cut the ties, hang me out to dry
Don’t even throw me a rope
I’m drowning, can’t you see me
I’m losing air, can’t tread any longer
So call me out this time
Call me out this time
Then leave me alone
Call me out this time
Call me out this time
Then leave me alone
Call me out this time
Call me out this time
Don’t leave me alone
Why is it that I feel the most when I am broken

Blue Jeans
02:37
|
|||
You wear your blue jeans
Over your sweatpants
Because you’re always cold
I turn the heat on
Before I leave home
So that you’ll always know
That I think about you
When you’re not around
But you tell me I don’t
And it hurts to hear that
You don’t see the ways I've loved you all alone
You go to movies with all your best friends
But I never tag along
Because you don’t invite me
But then you tell me
You wish I would have come
I think about you
When you’re not around
But you tell me I don’t
And it hurts to hear that
You don’t see the ways I've loved you all alone

Wait For Me If You Will
02:55
|
|||
Wait for me if you will
I'm driving across the state
Meet me outside six thirty in the morning
We can wet our hair in the summer dew
Talk it all over with a cup of coffee
Like we always use to do
We can throw our phone out the second story window
Cut off all our hair and strip out of our clothes
Go get lost in the woods where you grew up
I just wanted to do it with you
You know that I'd do anything
Just to make you the happiest person
Maybe then you'd stayed
We could have had the perfect home
A little two story white house
Where we'd raise our kids with a dog
And they could run and play in the yard
And throw water balloons at the people who pass by in cars
It would have been a merry life
If you had stuck to our vows and lived a married life
You couldn't wait
To leave me with the bills
You drove out of the state
I wish you had
Met me outside six thirty in the morning
We could wet our hair in the summer dew
Talk it all over with a cup of coffee
Like we always use to do
We could throw our phone out the second story window
Cut off all our hair and strip out of our clothes
Go get lost in the woods where you grew up
I just wanted to do it with you

Halloween
04:01
|
|||
I call my friends
I ask them what did I miss
It all depends on if I really listened
It's not so clear when I am stuck in my head
I get no answers cause right now all I hear is
Take your mask off
It is not Halloween
Maybe you just got used to it
Look at the curtains closed
Why are you still acting
Will you answer Honestly
I have this fear
I feel the hole in my chest
And it's not so clear
What even really happened
Am I a victim or the playwright of this
I bust the mirror
Because I'm met with regret
I could have spoke clearer
Would that have had an effect
I'm a liar or in denial over this
Take your mask off
It is not Halloween
Maybe you just got used to it
Look at the curtains closed
Why are you still acting
Will you answer honestly
I walk around all of the things that you left
Inside our house
I guess you didn't want them
I start to wonder if I am stupid for this
Maybe I'm stupid for this
Take your mask off
It is not Halloween
Maybe you just got used to it
Look at the curtains closed
Why are you still acting
Will you answer honestly this time
Take your mask off
It is not Halloween
Maybe you just got used to it
Look at the curtains closed
Why are you still acting
Will you answer honestly
Will you answer honestly
Can I Answer honestly

Downpour
03:14
|
|||
Drove through a hell of a storm just to get back home
But the weather couldn't stop the pain of an aching heart
I remember how it felt to be held there within your arms
I was broken to bits but not nearly shattered
Why do you hold onto hope with things that don't matter
If I'm not home before twilight then go lock the front door
Because you don't need me there if you're not being cared for
You can crawl into bed and lay there without sleep
And when morning comes you may finally be happy
When morning comes you may not even miss me
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh

Lean In
03:34
|
|||
You were broken and bleeding
But you wouldn’t even cry for help
You were hopelessly needing
But you didn’t show your weakness still
You were young you were headstrong
But bad habits tend to stay long
Lean in let us lift you up
Lean in let us lift you up
Lean in let us lift you up
Lean in let us lift you up
You said I just wanna say something
If I leave here I’m not coming back
Two years of the same nothing
You’re gonna wish that you could have this back
Lean in let us lift you up
Lean in let us lift you up
Lean in let us lift you up
Lean in let us lift you up
And I’m not giving up
I’m not giving up
Yeah I’m not giving up
Yeah I’m not giving up
Yes I’m not giving up
Yes I’m not giving up
Yes I’m not giving up
Yes I’m not giving up

I Hope You Don't Mind
02:20
|
|||
I see you there through the window
Hanging the clothes on the line
I tiptoe so you do not hear me
Loading the car for the drive
And I hope you don’t mind
I didn’t pack everything
Well I hope you don’t mind
Me coming back anyway
I know sometimes you’re just angry
I know that I make you mad
You say that I never listen
You say that I’m always sad
Well I hope you don’t mind
Another sad song to hear
And I hope you don’t mind
Me singing it through my tears

Super Bowl Sunday

Time sure has its way of changing things up
But our habits seem to stay when we don’t want them anymore
I still love you
I don’t want to anymore
I still love you
I don’t want to anymore
I hate when I don’t seem to understand the obvious things in life
Like when you said you don’t love me anymore
I still loved you
I don’t want to anymore
I still loved you
I don’t want to anymore
I could’t help it
I still loved you
But I don’t want to anymore
I
I
Hmmmm
Hmmmm
And I hope texas has enough space to hold
all the things you’re going through
‘cause I guess I don’t
And my heart is healing
but I wish you’d say that you are sorry that you took your hammer to it
Oh ‘cause every night I lie beside your pillow in a panic attack
in a house that’s full of all the things that you left
like your shoes and wedding dress
I didn’t want them
No I didn’t want them
Oh but I still loved you
But I don’t anymore
I couldn’t help it
I still loved you
But I don’t anymore
Time sure has its way of changing

Final Song
03:23
|
|||
I was lost you were hurting
We told God we were broken
After a year we were losing
All our hope
We wanted out of religion
You went to hell for revision
I had friends start to ask me
If I wanted to kill myself
If I wanted to kill myself
I thought pain would want to haunt me
But now we’re friends and we’re ornery
I tell it off it says fuck me
I think I’m starting to heal
I think I’m starting to heal
I think I’m starting to heal
I think I’m starting to heal
I think I’m starting to heal
I think I’m starting to heal
I think I’m starting to heal
I think I’m starting to heal

‘’Melancholia often drives my songwriting, but not because I am inherently sad. I want to work through my pain. I want it to be friends with my happiness. Music is where all of my deepest emotions are allowed to be themselves, creating new space for healing and fullness of life. ... more
