Amy Shark

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 own 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 needed 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
