So many battles left upon my shelves
Can’t take them down without a war against myself
So the tears keep falling down my face, yeah
And on my lips I can’t forget the way they taste, oh
I’m a mess, I’m a mess, I’m a mess, I’m a mess
I don’t know how to pick up the pieces, no but
I just keep pushing further on, and on again
Just one more inch, one more step to the edge
I don’t know, I don’t know, but I’ll do it alone, whoa-oh
Where do you go when nowhere feels like home?
There’s just no going back on the hand you hold
Just one more call, one more bluff ‘til I fold
Do I stare blankly from my bed?
Or let the waves come crashing down
When I can’t catch my breath, oh
I’m a mess, I’m a mess, I’m a mess, I’m a mess
I don’t know how to pick up the pieces, no but
I just keep pushing further on, and on again
Just one more inch, one more step to the edge
I don’t know, I don’t know, but I’ll do it alone, whoa-oh
Where do you go when nowhere feels like home?
There’s just no going back on the hand you hold
Just one more call, one more bluff ‘til I fold
But I keep a face like stone and no one knows
Behind the smile: the story untold
To keep the darkness in the shadows
But alone I fall apart on my bedroom floor
Do you know what you’d find if you opened up that door?
I’m a mess, I’m a mess, I’m a mess, I’m a mess
I don’t know how to pick up the pieces, no but
I just keep pushing further on, and on again
Just one more inch, one more step to the edge
I don’t know, I don’t know, but I’ll do it alone, whoa-oh
Where do you go when nowhere feels like home?
There’s just no going back on the hand you hold
Just one more call, one more bluff ‘til I fold
‘Til I fall apart

Quirky Toronto-based singer/songwriter, musician, and partnered Twitch streamer (voiceunmuted). Here to bring smiles while writing songs for sad girl hours and occasionally internalized rage.
This track is so beautifully written, it is an absolutely wonderful song which presents this idea that when two people love each other unconditionally they can experience life in a way that is entirely different than what they have previously experienced. yodaleiaheehoo
