CUT ME LOOSE

"You're gonna cut me loose, I don't even blame you."

"Why do I blow it all up?"

"So cut me with the truth, make it clean."

"It can't be worse than waiting."

CHERRY

"I know you're trying, try a little less."

"Don't be nervous."

"We're gonna take this nice and slow."

CALL FOR ME

"How can you say you never should have walked away?"

"How can you say you don't want me to walk away?"

BEST KIND

"You're never around."

"I could never be the one to hold you down."

"You love anything you can't tie down."

"I wasn't lying when I said you were beautiful."

"I'm never out of time."

"Don't look for me."

BOUND

"How many lives have I held you close?"

"Who would I be to let go?"

"Every step we take's another leap of faith."

"I'm gonna find my way with you."

"You're the only one that I'm thinking about."

"I'm learning to live it up."

"Do I deserve this?"

"Don't stop looking for me."

LOSING YOU

"Does your heart grow fonder of the distance from me?"

"It's like you're walking lighter every time that you leave."

"I'm losing you and I know it."

"I'm losing you, and there's nothing I can do about it."

"You're finally catching the signals from me."

"It's only a matter of pride that I won't let it die."

BLISS

"I don't wanna be right again."

"If it feels wrong, you can say no."

"I don't wanna do something you're not ready for."

"Timing's just not enough reason."

"It would just be better if you felt nothing for me."

"It would just be better if we never met."

"What hurts the most is we almost had it for a moment."

"What hurts the most is I know I felt what I felt."

"Wish we never kissed."

"We crossed a line and I feel bad about it."

GRACIE

"She's the sun and you're the comet."

"Everything she does, she owns it."

TELL ME HOW YOU REALLY FEEL ( sentence starters from the third studio album by katelyn tarver )

LOSING

"I don't know who to blame. Is it me, is it you?"

"Now all we have is truth."

"I got a lot of anger, but I don't know where to put it."

"Now I'm pacing back and forth, feeling like a fucking idiot."

"Do you think I like this feeling? Like it's all just for the thrill of it?"

"I don't wanna make excuses."

"Believing in myself is getting so fucking exhausting."

"I'm so tired of this fight, I didn't even choose it."

"If I get everything I want, there's always something that I'm losing."

DOUBLE EDGED SWORD

"How do you know when something is dying?"

"No one knows anything for certain."

"I had to rip the cord."

"I had to fall on a double edged sword."

"I feel kinda helpless."

"Am I being selfish?"

"Is it love? Is it self-destructive?"

#1

"Now I'm gonna need to get a new car."

"All I do is want more and more, but I don't think I deserve it."

"It won't do you any good."

"Actually, you might be right."

"Done taking shit, I'm pushing all the limits."

"You can't tell me nothing."

"Starting now, looking out for number one."

"We went out twice, and I think he fell in love with me."

"People think I'm so polite, but if they knew what's on my mind."

"I wanna cross every line, just wanna feel alive."

"I feel nothing, I feel everything."

"I'm doing whatever I want."

"Who gave you the right to do that?"

STRANGE WEATHER

"I've never felt more like myself."

"It was safe and familiar, the life we were building."

"I don't know me without you, sometimes I don't want to."

"Then I'm kissing a stranger."

"I'm done fighting my nature."

"I'm ready for anything."

"It's everything all at once."

"It's getting worse, but it's getting better."

"I'm out of control."

"I'm looking for something to hold."

DON'T EAT PRAY LOVE

"Should we give it one more try?"

"I don't talk to Jesus, but I think he understands."

"Sometimes it's hard out here in the deep end."

"I miss having something to believe in."

$82 AT EREWHON

"Now I find it kinda charming, a little detail that I miss."

"I know we had our issues, but you were also my best friend."

"I miss when you'd laugh when a joke went too far."

"Sometimes I wake up and still reach for your hand."

"There's so much I wanna tell you."

"I hope you're doing well."

"Can love ever really last?"

"When I promised you forever, didn't think I'd take it back."

"I'm scared all the time, but I'm growing a lot."

"One day I'm okay, and the next one I'm not."

"I still get confused about where we went wrong."

"In the end you'll always be someone that I love."

RIGHT FOR ME

"I don't smoke but that night I did."

"Heard you were an asshole."

"You're not right for me, but that's right for me right now."

"I don't wanna think about how you're gonna let me down."

"You're a bad habit that I had to have."

"I guess that's why I like you."

"I would let you ruin my life."

IDGAF

"I've been trying to surround myself with positivity."

"If I say it enough, maybe then I'll believe it."

"Lost you and myself, so I'll lie if it helps."

"I don't give a fuck about where you've been."

"I don't give a fuck about who you're with."

"I don't give a fuck about what we lost."

Oh, God, I wish it was true."

"I say that I don't but I do give a fuck about you."

"As if there are concrete answers with matters of the heart."

SO AM I

"Well I guess I did it, didn't I?"

"Now, all I can seem to do is cry."

"If I still prayed, I'd pray for you."

"I'm sufferin', but feeling alive."

"Life's hard, but at least it's mine."

"I can't really go anywhere without seeing you."

"All I know is I'm somebody else now."

NO MATTER WHAT

"I could talk about the ways you let me down."

"I could tell you how I hoped that we'd work it out."

"What good would it do now?"

"Most days I wish you were around."

"We could've gotten through it, it would've made us stronger."

"Maybe it was always gonna end like this, no matter what we did."

"I can still picture the heartbreak on your face."

THE PRICE

"Feels like someone died, but you're still alive."

"It's really weird to think we live in the same city."

"I'm just pickin' up the pieces of my life."

"Been callin' you my ex in someone else's bed."

"Guess that's the price you pay for lovin' somebody as hard as I loved you."

TRUST MYSELF

"What was holding me up was holding me so far back."

"The world didn't end, the sky didn't fall."

"What I thought would put me into the ground brought me back to life."

COVELL

"He doesn't make me laugh, but that's not why I text him back."

"I'm not in it for his personality."

"Guess I knew there was a chance that I'd run into you here."

"The weirdest thing about it is it doesn't feel weird."

"Everything's different, but it's still the same."

"We used to be married and now we don't have sex."

"You sound just like you used to."

"Can I wish that you weren't leaving and still be moving on?"

"All the problems we got now are the ones we had back then."

"One good day together doesn't make us good again."

"I don't think we'll fix it, but I think we might be friends."
