lyrics
I met a girl, she's a small town baby with leather tan boots and long brown hair.
I caught her eye and she called me crazy, but then we came around and got our feet off the ground.
And then I felt so unsound deep down, judging by the sound I think I hit the ground.
I think it's time to take a step—fall back and figure out all the things I lack.
So maybe I will sit down, write it out, I don't want to tell that to you.
I need to find out who I am, God knows if you'll understand, what could I do? What can I do?
I wore a mask while you were around, I had to do it or you'd see the real me. You had the kindest heart, the purest soul—you're beautiful—but what you couldn't find was my war on the inside.
I never thought that all of this time that I would choose not to lie.
And I know in my heart and all of my mind that I would say it if I try.
