Emergency Lyrics

It's funny how the times have changed

Yet and still, you keep runnin' through my head

When you broke every piece my heart had left and

I forgave instead

Of loving me enough to stop discounting

The mistakes and my regrets

Or acknowledging what I knew the signs meant:

Love's ship had sailed

The winds of change have shifted

I forgave, but won't forget

And I would say I'm sorry, but I'm sure that you know that

I wish you the best; I hope you grow beyond your past

Self-Love is underway

(Cause I've grown)

Beyond the limits you set forth

(And I've learned)

Hardships don't always lead to love

(Now I know)

That what I need's inside of me

Mayday, mayday, mayday

Saving me is an emergency

Heavy hangs the head with responsibilities

I've got more than my fair share

You knew all of that and still played with me

The audacity of care

Good sex and nice gifts will never compare

When mishandling my heart

Like you appreciated and protected it

Played one hell of a part

The winds of change have shifted

I forgave, but won't forget

And I would say I'm sorry, but I'm sure that you know that

I wish you the best; I hope you grow beyond your past

Self-Love is underway

(Cause I've grown)

Beyond the limits you set forth

(And I've learned)

Hardships don't always lead to love

(Now I know)

That what I need's inside of me

Mayday, mayday, mayday

Saving me is an emergency

No more - balancing your life to inconvenience me

For sure - I've had enough of being your secret side-piece

Now the only thing I'm saving is my sanity

I've grown beyond the limits set for me

I've learned hardships and love don't always meet

I know what I need is inside me

Mayday saving me is an emergency
