My life thus far has been held together by band aides and safety pins, nothin quite fits but I'm still tryin to squeeze my body into it, I've been frontin, I've been wantin someone who fits me effortlessly, with ease and room to spare, cause I've endured some wear and tear with all these meaningless love affairs, fake smiles and dishonest laughter, fast forward to the morning after I'm all dolled up lookin like a disaster
I just wanna wash off the lipstick take off the stilletos play my music and get with my own flow and love will find me eventually
I'm gonna dance with my shadow I'm goin all out, never forgettin what I'm all about and love will find me eventually you just wait and see yeah
I'll just sit here and look real cute while he buys me drinks I'll look for an escape route grab my purse and exit through the back door get in my car put the petal to the floor and I'll fly home singin out loud lifes too short so get off my cloud, if I can't be myself I don't wanna be with nobody else.
Repeat chorus
Cause they always just crash and burn
Crash and burn, when will I learn
To stop lyin, stop hidin, quit cryin stop tryin
Repeat chorus
