Gather Yourself (acoustic)

from Pleasant Company EP by Laurie Ray

about

The first actual song I ever wrote, and this is me playing it in my living room, just for you.

lyrics

gather yourself up
in the bathroom
gather your wits
gather them about you
you can't leave just yet
although you really want to
try and get this makeup
off my face
I didn't want to wear it
in the first place
eye linear burns my eyes
as I start to cry again

it'll alright
it'll be just fine
just try and make it through tonight
when you get home you can cry

they don't know
what you're going through
they wouldn't know
even if they tried to
leave the bathroom in haste
and try to hide your tear stained face
y'see, there's always been something wrong with this place
there's always been something wrong here
maybe that's why I feel so out of place
maybe I'll find a place where I belong
I'm so sick of it
oh so sick of it
it's time for a change
I'm tired of being labelled
I'm tired of being pushed away
tired of being at the bottom of the food chain
I'm so sick of this
I'm , i'm so sick
I'm so, i'm so sick of this
it's time for a change

gather yourself up
gather yourself up
gather yourself up
gather yourself up
you will
gather yourself up
