The Stone in My Chest
Oh girl you're complicated
You don't know who you are
And although you see every single fault
It's hard for you to admit to them out loud
Like that song that was popular sometime ago
Just like a bird you'll only wanna fly away
When things become too real
Oh, girl did you only imagine
The way things use to be
Were you really ever warm and glowing
Was the compassion only on display
Did you stop and really listen
Without the annoyance you feel now
Without wanting to get away?
Oh, girl can you ever come back
Or are those days now gone?
Has the bitterness got too deep?
Can the stone in your chest be replaced?
Has the jaded attitude become the norm?
Did the death of your mother
Trigger the death of your heart?
You don't know who you are
And although you see every single fault
It's hard for you to admit to them out loud
Like that song that was popular sometime ago
Just like a bird you'll only wanna fly away
When things become too real
Oh, girl did you only imagine
The way things use to be
Were you really ever warm and glowing
Was the compassion only on display
Did you stop and really listen
Without the annoyance you feel now
Without wanting to get away?
Oh, girl can you ever come back
Or are those days now gone?
Has the bitterness got too deep?
Can the stone in your chest be replaced?
Has the jaded attitude become the norm?
Did the death of your mother
Trigger the death of your heart?
