Courtney Jaye Mental Lyrics

Mental Lyrics

On this lonely stretch of solitude

I'm thinking 'bout the things that I
never do

All the promises that I made to you

Well they're just
words

They're only words



It took so long for me to
recognize

All this confidence that I couldn't find

I used to dim my
light so you could shine

And that's what hurts

It really hurts



I wanna do everything right

But everything's going wrong

I
want to feel heaven on earth

But nothing ever lasts that long



Baby I'm goin' mental

So much potential

I can't stand to watch it
withering away

It's out of control now

It's getting old now

And I can't afford to waste another day



Well dust keeps piling
up on the window sill

Man if you don't know by now I guess you never
will

But there's no benefit in standing still

Not for you no no

And not for me

But I wanna make everything work

Something's just
gotta give

I gotta start putting me first

It's killing me the way
it is



[Chorus]



I wanna do everything right

But
everything's going wrong

I wanna feel heaven on earth

And nothing
ever lasts that long



[Chorus]
