Reaching Out

[Verse 1]

I don't have a tank full of happy endings

That ship sailed a long time ago

But I find myself a peace in the knowing

This world is full of stories that look quite like my own

[Verse 2]

I'm tired of being afraid of how the time is changing me

And wearing my heart hard on my sleeve

When asked how I'm doing, I routinely say I'm fine

And now I'm tired of the lie

[Chorus]

So I'm reaching out for something better than this

I don't know what it is

But I'm reaching out for something easy to miss

Oh, I think I did

Oh, I think I did

Oh, yeah

[Verse 3]

Mom and dad don't talk to one another

They used to be friends for a spell long ago

The little girl in me is still recovering

Stepping prints into the world

Still looking for a home

[Verse 4]

Been living on the edge and out of bags in Tennessee

Sharing my heart with people like me

I told 'em all the truth of how I feel and where I've been

And now I, I wish I never did

[Chorus]

So I'm reaching out for something better than this

I don't know what it is

But I'm reaching out for something easy to miss

Oh, I think I did

Oh, I think I did, yeah, yeah

Oh, I think I did

[Bridge]

I'm tired of being afraid of how the time is changing me

And scared of my heart worn out on my sleeve

When asked how I'm doing, I'll repel against the lie

Won't say I'm fine

I'll say I'm trying

[Chorus]

And I'm reaching out for something better than this

I don't know what it is

But I'm reaching out for something easy to miss

Oh, I think I did (Oh, I think I did)

Oh, I think I did

Oh, oh, I think I did

Oh, I think I did
