Give Me A Minute

(album: Trust The Wire - 2017)

I should be old enough by now
I love that you don't lie
I try to be bold or chase it down
Pursue it finally

It's not that I don't appreciate
I love that it's all mine
I'm not much use at playing safe
I'll see this out

And blow them all away
Then you'll get your break
Leave with your head high
You fought for it
You should be applauded

And it's okay to bleed
But I bruise to easily
You can let yourself out
I'm much too honest
Oh, but I'm not sorry

I'll take my medicine
You'll take the credit
This thing could get the better
Of you if you let it
Hold on, I'm not finished
Just give me a minute
My everything looks so much nicer
With you in it

And I could have sworn some things have changed
We don't fit like we used to
It's hard to ignore if it's worth the wait
It might just fool you

It's not that I don't appreciate
How love it can choose you
I'm not much use at being fake
I'll see this out

And blow them all away
Then you'll get your break
Leave with your head high
You fought for it
You should be applauded

And it's okay to bleed
But I bruise to easily
You can let yourself out
I'm much too honest
Oh, but I'm not sorry

I'll take my medicine
You'll take the credit
This thing could get the better
Of you if you let it
Hold on, I'm not finished
Just give me a minute
My everything looks so much nicer
With you in it

And I can't remember how
We got so wrapped up in it
Hold on I'm not finished
Just give me a minute

I'm not finished
And if you don't mind
I can live with it
Just a minute
I'm not finished
Would you be so kind
Just to forgive it

I'll take my medicine
You'll take the credit
This thing could get the better
Of you if you let it
Hold on, I'm not finished
Just give me a minute
