Butterfly Boucher - Scary Fragile Album Lyrics

I found out
I can only be who I am
I can only do what I can
I won't try to describe the relief

And the rush
Where did the panic and the racket begin?
I swear I don't remember letting them in
How could this possibly be happening?
Again

Please slow down
We don't need to be
Anywhere but here
Please slow down
I'll miss it when your heart's not around
Please slow down

I found out
I can only be who I am
I can only do what I can
I won't try to describe the relief

And the rush
Where did the panic and the racket begin?
I swear I don't remember letting them in
How could this possibly be happening?
Again

So please slow down
We don't need to be anywhere but here tonight
Please slow down
Or miss it when your heart's not around
Slow down

I'm going seeking
Hoping to find
All the raptures your heart down
I miss it when your heart's not around
Please slow down tonight

I found out
I can only be who I am
I can only do what I can
I won't try to describe the relief

And the rush
Where did the panic and the racket begin?
I swear I don't remember letting them in
How could this possibly be happening?
Again

Again

Oh, I do
I try to
For the love of love
And for the love of loving's sake
Take all the ones you fear
And all the ones you hate
Cook a hearty stew
Brush a smile and fill their plates
Why is it so simple
Why is it so hard to say?

Oh, I do
I try to
For the love of love
And don't delay for goodness sake
Take all the ones you trust
And all the ones you hold so dear
Pass around the wine
Drink it up
Shed a tear
Why is it so simple?
Why is it so hard to say?

Then sing it on

Oh, I do
I try to
Oh, I do
I love you

Oh, I do
I try to

Oh, I've got to push, push myself
Oh, I must be brave
To save the world

Oh, I do
I love you

Just one tear are shed for this
Just one tear
And not one more
Say you'll never do the same again

Say hello
Say hello to the high life
The one you dream about
The one you think about
Second night
Second night to the one you live
On your way knowing
That they'll be there in the morning

Just one tear are shed for this
Just one tear
And not one more
Say you'll never do the same again

Just one tear are shed for this
Just one tear
And not one more
Say you'll never do the same again

You don't know
You don't know how what a daydream
I could be the girl who kisses everyone at the party

Say hello
Say hello to the new girl
Who's she here for?
You should've seen her freeze in the doorway

Just one tear are shed for this
Just one tear
And not one more
Say you'll never do the same again

Just one tear are shed for this
Just one tear
And not one more
Say you'll never do the same again

Do I feel sadness
Do I feel shame
I'd cover my face now but all of these turn to stone
Except one thing
I can't control
Watch it slowly roll down my face
Across my lips
The lips you loved
Well, stupid me for thinking
I was the only one you ever needed

Just one tear are shed for this
Just one tear
And not one more
Say you'll never do the same again

Just one kiss
Yeah, right
Just one kiss
You said you'd never do the same
Just one kiss
I leave with you
Just one kiss
Before I go
We'll never be the same again

Live it and breathe it
You know that I do
When you are alone, I think of you
Love it and leave it
And know when you're done
Watch out for this girl she's got a tongue for a tongue

I don't hear what you say
You always love me, just because
What do you want? What do you want?
Everything
Everything

But keep it a secret to hold and to trust
It's gonna bruise, it's gonna crash
Believe it
It's over
In the blink of a lie
You found another
It's time to put your arrows aside

Watch out for this girl she's got a gun for a tongue
I don't want to hear what you say
You always love me, just because
What do you want? What do you want?
Everything
Everything

It's gonna take time to know her
It's gonna take time to know her
You're gonna need eyes to keep it
You're gonna need fire to find it
When she moves to another town
Who's gonna be there to take the time?

Watch out for this girl
Love it and leave it
And know when you're done
Watch out for this girl she's got a gun for a tongue

It's scary to be fragile in this turning world
This world, it turns me upside down

On board there's a plank set aside
Nailed down and ready to be walked
These splinters in my hands won't go
I've held on tonight
What will happen tonight?
I've tried before

It's scary to be fragile in this turning world
This world, it turns me upside down

Upstairs there's a cupboard and a key
There's a coat inside that fits me
I put it on and wonder where the buttons have gone
Where have they gone?
I couldn't say

It's scary to be fragile in this turning world
This world, it turns me upside down

I won't believe it's all been done before

This world is getting scary
It's scary to be fragile

What have we done?

You know that feeling
Bright red and seizing
Every word that you said
(Did you mean it
Did you mean it all?)

There it goes to my head
(You be careful
It's contagious, boy)
But it feels so good
It's just wires
Smoke and mirrors and flowers

Help! And throw me a rope
I think I'm drowning
Shallow people
Help! I think I'm falling, falling again

You know that feeling
Bright red and seizing
When you'd like to be seen
(Did you see her?
Did you see her hair?)
Would you like to told
(You look gorgeous, simply gorgeous)
We like to be heard
(Did you hear her? Did she say something charming?)

Help! And throw me a rope
I think I'm drowning
Help! I think I'm falling, falling again

Breathe in
Breathe out
And sigh
And sigh

Help! And throw me a rope
I think I'm drowning (drowning)
Face down
Help! Oh, help
No more falling for tall tales again
Still falling for shallow people

Help! Help!
I think I'm falling again

You know the feeling
Time to believe it

I've been laying low, taking it slow
Put the game in the side
What's there to hide

Tell me that you need me
Tell I'm a keeper
Tell me something I don't know
Think before you say it
Say it if you mean it
Mean it because it doesn't show

What a pleasant surprise
A sight for sad eyes
Where the hell have you been?
Why did you go (home)

Tell me that you need me
Tell I'm a keeper
Tell me something I don't know
Think before you say it
Say it if you mean it
Mean it because it doesn't show

Tell me that you need me
Tell I'm a keeper
Tell me something I don't know
Think before you say it
Say it if you mean it
Mean it because it doesn't show

Oh, I try, yeah I try
Try to scratch you out of my mind
But my mind
But my mind is made up and it just won't let it go

I've got to know
I've got to know
I need to know
Go ahead, I dare you
Tell me

Tell me that you need me
Tell I'm a keeper
Tell me something I don't know
Think before you say it
Say it if you mean it
Mean it because it doesn't show

I've been stuck for what seems like years
Finally free
And what do I see?
I see eyes and they're looking at me
There's so much to be

They say you grow when you're asleep in bed
I won't give in
I must up the fight
I'm gonna keep my eyes wide
All day and night

My dreams are bigger than me
How will I get there?
Who will I have to be?
I'm so eager and I'm so scared
There's so much to see

They say you grow when you're asleep in bed
I won't give in
I must up the fight
I'm gonna keep my eyes wide
All day and night

Everyday I feel a little more like me
I get to pay the bills and sometimes I get shoes for free
I'm fine
Yeah I'm fine

A little stressed out at times, it's true
But I found my own ways of getting through
I'm fine
Mom, I'm fine

I've been there and I've done that
I've got the photos and I've got the scars to prove it
I'm so tired and I'm so glad
For what I have

They say you grow when you're asleep in bed
I'd like to know
I won't put up the fight
I'm gonna rest my head
Until the lights go out

Lights out, sleep tight
Lights out, sleep tight
Lights out, lights out
Sleep tight tonight

I can't keep up with myself anymore
Anymore of this and I might lose it completely
I might lose the lot
I can't keep up with myself anymore

I can't up with myself anymore
Sadness steals like the cold
And my tears are falling dry
Darkness steals from the sun
And my toes are cold at night
And my tears are falling dry

Sadness steals like the cold
And my tears are falling dry
Darkness steals from the sun
And my toes are cold at night
Sadness steal like the cold
Darkness steals from the sun
And my toes are cold night
Like the dawn

Don't make me say it
You don't want to hear it
I held it in the hope my heart could change

You say you're not
But you seem so certain
I'm really sorry but I just don't feel the same
You can pin all the blame on me

Because I want to feel love
Real love
Deep, down love

Don't try to shatter all my hopes of true love
Don't try to tell me there's no such thing as "the one"
I understand
I understand clearly
It doesn't happen like it happens in the movies
I'm aware
I don't care
I'm a dreamer

And I want to feel love
Real love
Deep, down love
Deep, down love

While I was gone all my friends got married
Who's fooling who?
I don't want to die lonely
So love's got time
But I'm not gonna lie to you

But I want to feel love
Real love
Deep, down love

I want to feel love
Real love
True love

I want to feel love
True love
True love
True love
True, foolish love
Real love
True love

All I need is a bitter song
To make me better
Much better

All I need to write is a bitter song
To make me better
Much better

hmmm
hmmm

It found me
to hold me
But I don't like it at all
Won't feed it,
Won't grow it
It's folded in my stomach;

It's not fair,
I found love;
It made me say that.
Get back,
You'll never
see daylight;
If I'm not strong
it just might.

All I need is a bitter song
To make me better
Much better

All I need to write is a bitter song
To make me better
I feel better
I feel better
