Stretched To Thin
verse 1:
walking in her designer shoes,
she's got nothing to lose but feeling.
Outside it may be a sunny day,
but in her mind it's raining.
bridge a:
with so much to say... but she's not speaking
chorus:
you don't know what it's like,
to be everyone's everything all of the time.
and you don't know what it's like,
to always have to be right.
when she tries to be her own,
she only ends up alone.
the world stops spinning and she's left stretched... to thin
verse 2:
living in her coffe cup,
which replaces every meal.
she fills her journal pages bottom to top,
they are what taught this girl... how to feel.
Chorus:
you don't know what it's like,
to be everyone's everything all of the time.
and you don't know what it's like,
to always have to be right.
when she tries to be her own,
she only ends up alone.
the world stops spinning and she's left stretched... to thin
bridge:
slow...down
slow... down
final chorus:
when she tries to be her own,
she only ends up alone.
the world stops spinning and she's left stretched... to thin
