My Song

Brandi Carlile · The Story [2007]

Everything I do

Surrounds these pieces of my life

That often change

Or maybe I've changed



Sometimes seeming happy

Can be self-destructive

Even when you're sane

Or only insane



But don't bother waking me today



Here I am

I'm so young

I know I've been bitter

I've been jaded

I'm alone

Everyday

I bite my tongue

If you only knew

My mind was full of razors

To cut you like a

word if only sung



This is my song

It is my song



I live everyday

Like they'll never be a last one

Till they're gone

And they're gone

I'm too proud to beg

For your attention and your friendship

And your time

So you can come and get it from now on



Chorus



This is my song

This is my song



Here I am

I'm so young

I know I've been bitter

I've been jaded

I'm alone

Everyday

I bite my tongue

If you only knew

My mind was full of razors

I'm not sure I can take it

I've nothing strong to hold to

I'm way to old to hate you

My mind is full of razors

To cut you like a

word if only sung



This is my song
