it’s all so heavy now it’s been so long i’ve live a thousand lives they all went wrong
i’ve been so many shapes i’ve seen it all after the highest heights an eternal fall
and in another world i might have been the the kind of woman who i had envisioned
but i’m a rolling stone from shore to shore i lost it all then lost some more
i’m not the one that i was before
* a heart can only break so many times til it breaks open
and my feet can only run so many miles til they catch on fire
** they’re tryna take a piece out of me they’re coming from the trees after me
i’m high up, high up in the clouds like tryna put a breeze on a leash
they’re tryna take a piece out of me they’re coming from the trees after me
but they can’t they can’t catch me now
and i tried so hard to find some solid ground somewhere to hide away some solace found
i gave it all away to unsteady hands i tried to stand in place on shifting sands
and in another world i might have been the the kind of woman who i had envisioned
but that was not the plan i see it now i understand can’t turn around
no going back where i was before
