This Is How It Went

Scared to speak, finding words for an email 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

Won't 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 planning on something 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 have 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 planning on something 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
