You say you're busy
I know I'm not your priority
Every time you walk out that door
You take my heart from me
All the gracious gifts you give to remind me of you
I’d give them all away, just for you stay
Cause baby
I don't need your love through things
No fancy cars or diamond rings
Expensive things don't make up the time
I don't need your love through things
No fancy cars or diamond rings
Expensive things don't make up the time
That you're on my mind
You say you love me, but
Your goodbyes leave me high and dry
You want to give me the world
But I want you by my side
All the things I hold on to remind me of you
I’d give them all away, just for you stay
Cause baby
I don't need your love through things
No fancy cars or diamond rings
Expensive things don't make up the time
I don't need your love through things
No fancy cars or diamond rings
Expensive things don't make up the time
That you're on my mind
Your time is worth much more to me
Then big and shiny flashy things
So baby just hold me tight
Cause baby
I don't need your love through things
No fancy cars or diamond rings
Expensive things don't make up the time
That you're on my mind

You said it’s me said it’s me you’re never wrong,
Cause you know cause you know I’d hang on
I’d hang on
Every word every word used against me,
took apart tore apart my dignity
My dignity
But I learned yeah I learned that I’m strong
And my world yeah my world keeps moving on
I’m moving on
I hope you see I won, and you got your karma you got your karma
I hope you see I won, and you got yours, you got your karma
You got yours
Karma
I’ll brush the chip, crush the chip off my shoulder,
I won’t let won’t let abuse take over
It’s over
I won’t let won’t let you bring me down,
Cause I got this whole thing turned around
Turned around
Got all this noise all this noise out of my head,
Pushed the devil pushed the devil out of my bed
My bed
I hope you see I won, and you got yours, you got your karma
You got yours, you got your karma
I hope you see I won, and you got your karma you got yours
You got yours
Karma
You got yours
Karma

Broken promises, shattered dreams
Future I thought I’d never see
Senseless games, I already played
Won’t let you lead me astray
You lied, what where you hoping to gain
This time, I won’t let you explain
You made a fool of me and I played your game
I’ve forgiven your indecency
Refuse to feel the pain (I won’t feel the pain, no)
Empty commitments, my love betrayed
You didn’t think I wouldn’t walk away
Some nerve, the misery your served
For this I don’t deserve
You lied, what where you hoping to gain
This time, I won’t let you explain
You made a fool of me and I played this game
I’ve forgiven your indecency
Refuse to feel the pain (I won’t feel the pain, no)
You lied, what where you hoping to gain
This time, I won’t let you explain
You made a fool of me and I played this game
I’ve forgiven your indecency
Refuse to feel the pain (I won’t feel the pain, no)

I’m afraid sometimes
When hurt comes from the inside
Just like a natural flow of a storm
Tears are meant tears are meant to be born
Let it out let it out let it out don’t hold it in
Let it out let it out let it out and start again
So baby cry your tears at night, don’t hold them inside
Let it out let it out let it out don’t hold it in
Let it out let it out let it out and start again
You mistake tears for weakness
But I’ll let you in on a secret
The strongest people I know shed weathered tears
They can show their emotions without fear
Let it out let it out let it out don’t hold it in
Let it out let it out let it out and start again
So baby cry your tears at night, don’t hold them inside
Let it out let it out let it out don’t hold it in
Let it out let it out let it out and start again
It’s okay not to be okay
Let the waves roll over
Have those days, have those days
Find your way to my shoulder
Let it out let it out let it out don’t hold it in
Let it out let it out let it out and start again
So baby cry your tears at night, don’t hold them inside
Let it out let it out let it out don’t hold it in
Let it out let it out let it out and start again
Let it out let it out let it out
Let it out let it out let it out

Happy (Acoustic Version)

When it comes to opening my heart
I wouldn’t even know where to start
I truly never know what to say
I don't know why I am this way
I know I can be happy
Take a lap and I’ll be back you'll see
I know I can be happy I’ll slay
I know I can be happy
Take a lap and I'll be back you’ll see
I know I can be happy one day
And nothing nothing nothing will
Stand in my way
When life feels like everything’s gone wrong
I like to write to write my stupid ass songs
Sometimes I feel like a tragic display
When I remember it's not always this way
I know I can be happy
Take a lap and I’ll be back you'll see
I know I can be happy I’ll slay
I know I can be happy
Take a lap and I'll be back you’ll see
I know I can be happy one day
And nothing nothing nothing will
Stand in my way
I know I can be happy
Take a lap and I’ll be back you'll see
I know I can be happy I’ll slay
I know I can be happy
Take a lap and I'll be back you’ll see
I know I can be happy one day
And nothing nothing nothing will
Stand in my way

You came up real cocky like you already knew
And when I said my piece and try to leave
You went for take two
Do I have to break it down for you to make it clear
The first “no” that I say is all you have to hear
You misunderstood when I told you
No I don’t know you and I got better things to do
You misunderstood when I told you
Cause I see you creeping up on me and
I need you to turn and leave
You should get your ears checked
Something must be stuck
Cause what I’m putting down
You don’t seem to be picking up
Do I have to break it down for you and make it clear
The first “no” that I say yeah that is all you have to hear
You misunderstood when I told you
No I don’t know you and I got better things to do
You misunderstood when I told you
Cause I see you creeping up on me and
I need you to turn and leave
So let me break it down for you slowly
The finger you lay on me
Is the finger you’ll never see
You misunderstood when I told you
No I don’t know you and I got better things to do
You misunderstood when I told you
Cause I see you creeping up on me and
I need you to turn and leave
