Outside In

(album: The Love That's Ours - 2022)

Hearts don't break, they bend
To the whims of the ones we love
And I've tried to shake it off
But I carry that cross
For you, my never end
Run away to that place we hide
Never been that type to fight for it

So I let myself go
Try to sink into the heat of another touch
So low we never think we seen enough
How many waves can we withstand
Dead in the water I breathe in

'Cause I know that you don't want to know
I'm no angel to hold
Up the mirror we do what we want
Darling do ya damn thing
But sometimes love you don't play right
Don't collar me too tight
Bark away, save me your bite
Don't let all the outside in
And bring me from the outside in

Love don't fade it ends
'Cause you can't teach a dog to lie
And we'll talk that talk until
All the walls cave in
So here we are again
Run away to the place we hide
Never been the type to fight for it

So I let myself go
Try to sink into the heat of another touch
So low we never think we seen enough
How many waves can we withstand
Dead in the water still breathing

'Cause I know that you don't want to know
I'm no angel to hold
Up the mirror we do what we want
Darling do ya damn thing
But sometimes love you don't play right
Don't collar me too tight
Bark away save me your bite
Don't let all the outside in
And bring me from the outside in
