lyrics

Got a dis-settling feeling.
I can't seem to shake.
A stomach tied up in knots.
Unspoken thoughts
are too much to take.

Got a dis-settling feeling.
I can't seem to shake.
A stomach tied up in knots.
Unspoken thoughts
are too much to take.

It's a suddle haunting.
It whispers in my ear
Poisoned by fear,
these lies are taunting.

*Girl get it together
We got no time for this.
Cast it all aside.
It's do or die.
Hands clenched in a fist.

I'm swimming upstream.
Fighting the current.
Been writing songs
All day long, praying someone will hear it.

Lord have mercy on me.
I'm a sinner girl
If I had a choice
I'd hear only your voice.
And never the world
Never the world.*

Butterflies, have knives
as they cut up my insides
Stuck in an after thought
Battled and fought
inevitably caught.

Crave a sense of closure.
Your fingers are black burned
From playing with fire
Torn and wired
By desire.

*Girl get it together
We got no time for this.
Cast it all aside.
It's do or die.
Hands clenched in a fist.

I'm swimming upstream.
Fighting the current.
Been writing songs
All day long, praying someone will hear it.

Lord have mercy on me.
I'm a sinner girl
If I had a choice
I'd hear only your voice.
And never the world
Never the world.*

Got a dis-settling feeling.
I can't seem to shake.
A stomach tied up in knots.
Unspoken thoughts
are too much to take.
