This Time
Mm-mm, oh, no, no, no this time
Maybe this time I get this right
I've been down and I've been out
I almost drowned and then my tears dried and
I could see right, yeah
Yeah, I can see why
I've been out of focus, I can tell I'm broken
I've been feelin' lonely
Can You tell me that I'm chosen?
Tell me that I'm Yours, I'm insecure
Didn't You notice? Tell me that You love me
Like I don't already know it
Everybody actin' like they all okay
Guess that I'm the only one
That's in their own way
Keepin' to myself like I'm the only one lеft
And wonder why I'm out here by mysеlf
(Ah, ah)
Every scar has turned my heart into a lock
(Ooh, oh oh)
Know the key is give You all I got (Oh oh)
Even when it's hard to talk
Feel like it's my fault
Even if I'm wrong, tell me I belong
Say You won't leave me askin' for help
Say that You need me all to Yourself
It's never easy, You say "Just believe me"
So I'm believin' this time
Maybe this time I get this right
I've been down and I've been out
I almost drowned and then my tears dried and
I could see right, yeah
Yeah, I can see why
I've been out of focus, I can tell I'm broken
I've been feelin' lonely
Can You tell me that I'm chosen?
Tell me that I'm Yours, I'm insecure
Didn't You notice? Tell me that You love me
Like I don't already know it
Oh, no, no, no, mm hmm oh, no, no, no
Oh, no, no, no oh, no, no, no, yeah
Broken home means broken promise
Left me broke like empty pockets
No direction, out of options
All alone to face these problems
So I'm drownin' in these feelings
I can't swim inside my tears
No secure attachment
I'm detached from what is real
I don't fight that, I just fight fears
What's on the inside
You can't see in a mirror
Back in my own mind, back in my own
Back and I'm on mine, yeah, now I'm on
'Cause I remember my anxiety and
Life with no sobriety
Sip syrup with Aunt Jemima all while
Uncle Tito fights with me
Life in isolation can get cold
Alone like hide and seek
Probably would've froze if I had
Banked on someone findin' me
So I put it in the light
Nothin' left in the dark
Exposin' all the hurt so I
Can patch a broken heart
Now I'm back in my own mind
God took His own time
Say it when you feel it
Open up to healin' this time
Maybe this time I get this right
I've been down and I've been out
I almost drowned and then my tears dried and
I could see right, yeah
Yeah, I can see why
I've been out of focus, I can tell I'm broken
I've been feelin' lonely
Can You tell me that I'm chosen?
Tell me that I'm Yours, I'm insecure
Didn't You notice? Tell me that You love me
Like I don't already know it
Oh, no, no, no, mm hmm oh, no, no, no
Oh, no, no, no oh, no, no, no
Oh, no, no, no
