Lyrics
FOLLOWER
Met this friend of mine at the edge of town when
I caught a glimpse of what they saw
They said hey little girl I'll stay for a while then
They left without making a sound
I lost this connection for a long long while
Then they found me in the same place again
Only this place was different more versatile
The voices were much louder than before
I’ve been found in the wrong
Always caught in the wrong places
Losing it while loving it is odd and I hate that
I feel unable to escape
My mindless heart needs a break
Mostly lost in the wrong places
My mind trails off along with my senses
Why don't I know what it takes
My mindless heart needs a break
I then started to not put myself before
The people that I knew the best
Just no clue how to express me though my core
The voices came back and told me more
I’ve been found in the wrong
Always caught in the wrong places
Losing it while loving it is odd and I hate that
I feel unable to escape
My mindless heart needs a break
Mostly lost in the wrong places
My mind trails off along with my senses
Why don't I know what it takes
My mindless heart needs a break
I’m unable
In nature
Confused
It is tougher
Than ever
To be who
Always caught in the wrong places
Losing it while loving it is odd and I hate that
I feel unable to escape
My mindless heart needs a break
Mostly lost in the wrong places
My mind trails off along with my senses
Why don't I know what it takes
My mindless heart needs a break
Always caught in the wrong places
Losing it while loving it is odd and I hate that
I feel unable to escape
My mindless heart needs a break
Mostly lost in the wrong places
My mind trails off along with my senses
Why don't I know what it takes
My mindless heart needs a break
SHINE
When you’re down on your knees and feeling alone
Somehow you know that you are home
That’s hope
I tell you, that’s hope
Say you’re okay, but you’re falling apart
Know that you’re fine, you’ll be alright
I know
I tell you, I know.
Cause, you’re strong, you’re a fighter that’s ready to fight, just know you can, and you will.
Shine through the night
Shine, burn bright
Cause I believe in you
I believe that you will
Shine through the night
Shine, burn bright
Cause I believe in you
I believe that you will shine.
You’re working hard, but not sure you’ll succeed
You click your heels, it’s time to leave
Let’s go
Come on, let’s go
Cause you’re strong, you’re a fighter that’s ready to fight, just know you can, and you will.
Shine through the night
Shine, burn bright
Cause I believe in you and
I believe that you will
Shine through the night
Shine, burn bright
Cause I believe in you
I believe that you will shine.
Shelves and shelves of memories
in your mind tonight
Our worlds are rewritten
Again and again, that’s right
All the stars, like
All the stars, like
Shine, burn bright
Cause I believe in you and
I believe that you will
Shine through the night
Shine, burn bright
Cause I believe in you and
I believe that you will shine.

GO
While others smile I’m feeling vile
Why don’t we feel the same
All that they show is pretty in others
Why don’t we love ourselves
I’ve been thinking way too long
Mind caught sinking it feels wrong
My heart and feet just drag along
3 2 1
I’ve been scared of just the thought of you
Fake and made up
The Fairy Tale you’re livin’ through
Need a break
Take time
Others take it too
Drive, Till your brakes don’t work anymore
Fly, Till you feel you’re gonna fall
And never seem to care
What the world throws your way
You can make every day
Go your way
Felt alone lost in this world
Why do feelings get in the way
Stop taking time just make a move
Why do we never feel what is true
I’ve lost track of myself too
Time spent wasted I am through
Caught and trapped fake face is blew
3 2 1
I’ve been scared of just the thought of you
Fake and made up
The Fairy Tale your livin’ through
Need a break
Take time
Others take it too
Drive, Till your brakes don’t work anymore
Fly, Till you feel you’re gonna fall
And never seem to care
What the world throws your way
You can make every day
Go your way
It’s not okay to never know what’s real or fake
There’s no way to see through others’ filters
Stuck on one note
Waiting for a chance you know
Take your
Drive
Fly
And never seem to care
What the world throws your way
You can make every day
Go your way
BRAIN BOYFRIEND
I was this close to telling him that I liked him
Then I brushed it off
I told him there were other prospects
But, he’s the only one I want
And he doesn’t like friends to lovers
But that’s all that I want
I’m done wastin’ all my tissues
We can work around your issues
You’re stuck, in my brain boy
Always in my head
You’re in my brain boy
You just don’t know it yet
You’re on my brain boy
So please don’t go
You have my brain boy
My heart and my head
You’re my, you’re my
Brain boyfriend
I spent my nights crying
Thinking about us
And what you wanted with me
I stopped for a while, in denial
Didn’t see the signs you sending me
Trying to solve the most difficult equation
If our relationship was dead
I’m done wastin’ all my tissues
I can work around your issues
You’re stuck, in my brain boy
Always in my head
You’re in my brain boy
You just don’t know it yet
You’re on my brain boy
So please don’t go
You have my brain boy
My heart and my head
You’re my, you’re my
Brain boyfriend
I know that you like me - but I can’t tell - if your reputation will
I’m stuck in your brain boy
You know that it’s true
I’m glued to your every thought
Is there something you’re gonna do
I’m on your brain boy
So never try to forget
I’m the girl from the summer
Your real-life
And in-person girlfriend

MIRACLE
Sitting and waiting for the right time to come
It's tougher than it may seem
I don't really know what I'm supposed to be but
I see what others do and it makes me
Believe in miracles
I see other’s miracles
But I'll be fine
Everyone’s watching everything you do
Each step you take can ruin you
It’s alright it might be okay
Life’s over complicated
in a different way
Always caught laughing at other’s rule of thumb
Might be a great plan LIKE SO FUN!
There's other things in life you just don't know
Then I see what others do and it makes me
Believe in miracles
I see other’s miracles
But I’ll be fine
Everyone’s watching everything you do
Each step you take can ruin you
It’s alright it might be okay
Life’s over complicated
in a different way
I am trying
To hang on for the ride
I am blinded
But it isn’t from the light
I don't understand myself
I’m gonna have to try
I can see it happening
My miracle’s inside
Believe in miracles
I see other’s miracles
I deserve a miracle
But I’ll be fine
LET LOVE GO
I read all these stories about love
I’ve seen it on tv
I’ve never known if I felt it
I wonder where it’s been
I don’t understand why
It’s so difficult to find the one for me
I guess I’ll never get why
They don’t love my debris
Oh no no no no
I'm letting go
Never felt this way before
Oh no no no no
You cannot know
That I’m trying hard to be with you
I want someone clever
Who makes me feel better
No matter whatever
I want to date a cool kid
Please cure my heart like Cupid
Put back the puzzle pieces of my broken heart
I’ll reply within seconds just to make sure you’re okay
Would you do the same for me
Or would I just fade away
I’d rather be in my mind then out there feeling scared
I don’t want to sit and realize that no one even cared
Oh no no no no
I’m letting go
Never felt this way before
Oh no no no no
You cannot know
That I’m trying hard to be with you
I want someone clever
Who makes me feel better
No matter whatever
I want to date a cool kid
Please cure my heart like Cupid
Put back the puzzle pieces of my broken heart
Da da da da daaa
Da da da da daaa
Da da da da daaa
Oh no no no no
I’m letting go
Never felt this way before
Oh no no no no
You cannot know
That I’m trying hard to be with you
I want someone clever
Who makes me feel better
No matter whatever
I want to date a cool kid
Please cure my heart like Cupid
Put back the puzzle pieces of my broken heart
My broken heart
Ooooh
I broke my heart
