melissa ferrick – relief lyrics
you keep on coming back
keep on keeping score
you keep on asking me
if i think that we’re worth fighting for
but i never really came
all the way in
i never sat down
because you wouldn’t stop
asking me
why — — —
do i always break things?
it’s not that i wasn’t willing
it’s not that i couldn’t feel
maybe i shouldn’t have hung around
for so long
maybe i just should’ve bailed
but i was trying for the first time
trying to give it time
because all of my friends
kept on saying
you gotta let someone in
to really learn
why — — —
do i always break things?
first there was the northridge earthquake
then there was the drive-by hate crime
then there was the hands of a guilty man
thoughts inside of my head
i could not stop it
i could not stand
that’s why
it’s hard for me to trust sometimes
that’s why
i bought a book about forgiveness
it promises to set me free
so i’m gonna take
every single suggestion
set our flare signal
and i need relief
because i’ve gotta find some strength
yes i’ve gotta find some strength
i wanna find some strength
and something other
something other than me
got the wooden bannister
i got the face of my grandmother
i got the words of oliver
give me relief
give me relief
give a little relief
give a little relief
give a little relief
