Gotta Figure This Out

Erin McCarley

I separated my heart from my head
To feel out whats inside
I don't like what I see
So I say good night

Don't wake me cause I;m dreaming in color
Black and white is not my friend
Candy-coated figures hold me in my bed

I've never been so deep inside a shadow
I've never been so insecure of what I know

I've gotta figure it out
I need a story to tell
Where's the feeling I long for
I've gotta figure it out
Before I lose you, love

Big city streets are calling me loud
Their busy keeps me high
This quiet town is wearing me down tonight
I know that I should stay here for awhile
Listen to the sound of my shaky heart
Looking for gold in the ground

I've never been so deep inside a shadow
I've never been so insecure of what I know

I've gotta figure it out
I need a story to tell
Where's the feeling I long for
I've gotta figure it out
Before I lose you
Before I lose you, love

It's not OK to make you wait
To make you wonder why I
Can't hold you close, can't give you hope
That this will be alright
I wanna make it right

I've gotta figure it out
I need a story to tell
Where's the feeling I long for
I've gotta figure this out
I need a story to tell
Where's the feeling I long for
I've gotta figure this out
Before I lose you
Before I lose you
Before I lose you, love
