This Is How It Went

Scared to speak, finding words for an e-mail to you Tried to see through the herd to find it stuck on my shoe Hanging on, piece of gum, it's time to let it go loose We'll just move on And let me write a song like all the songs I love to listen to Writing 'cause I'm healing, never writing songs to hurt you Using what I'm best at and I hope you do the same I'd sure make a movie before plannin' on somethin' to say I turned off the TV and I laid in my bed Sat and thought, blissfully listening to Elliott Writing songs, he did the same about situations Would've been just the same, you had to make it obvious Oh, come on, man Just let me write a song like all the songs I love to listen to Writing 'cause I'm healing, never writing songs to hurt you Using what I'm best at and I hope you do the same I'd sure make a movie before plannin' on somethin' to say And you messed up All by yourself And I sat right here, secretly tried to help And I did my best And you'd never know 'Cause your satisfaction's for you just to gloat And it was my song Oh, just a song You made it worse just by singing along Just keep busy Or make a movie And I'll stick to writing my songs Getting tired, don't want to speak Oh, please let me go to sleep Getting tired, don't want to speak Oh, please let me go to sleep Getting tired, don't want to speak Oh, please let me go to sleep Getting tired, don't want to speak Oh, please let me go to sleep
