I grew up in a small house Near a cemetery Could hear them howl As they lower the ones they love in the ground I pulled out my old baby teeth
The pain never seemed to bother me I made friends with the kids down the street I better go it´s getting late I´ve been outside all day I´ma walk home, work out what I´ll say
And I still lose it every now and then In an interview, or a photoshoot I could be halfway through a show And it all comes creeping in And I´ve sacrificed all my friends Birthdays, weddings, everything And it´s heartbreaking but this is my dream And I did it all without a phone call Or a Christmas card, you have no heart This is my way of saying don´t start
You should see the shows I play
And hear them sing the words I say I wonder sometimes if you are in the crowd Cause I needed help, I needed love I need care, I needed a hug I needed praise, I needed time with you And it plays on my mind, all the time, all the time I wanna love you but I need you to try
And I still lose it every now and then In an interview, or a photoshoot I could be halfway through a show And it all comes creeping in And I´ve sacrificed all my friends Birthdays, weddings, everything And it´s heartbreaking but this is my dream And I did it all without a phone call Or a Christmas card, you have no heart
This is my way of saying don´t start
Don´t start now I´m winning And finally happy Don´t start now I´ve done all the years of hard work Don´t start taking over And asking for favours Please just don´t start now that I´m Amy Shark
