Overjoyed

It was only just a few years ago.
Thought I knew, but really I didn't know.
No idea of just how much I could grow.
Here I stand, and baby you surely know. I'm overjoyed.
Thought I knew, but I didn't understand.
Ended up just throwing away my plan.
Thankfully, now I'm a better man.
Don't you know I'd do it all again. I've overjoyed.
This is what real love is all about, I will shout it to the sky.
My, oh my, I know I've got it bad. I am such a lucky guy.
I do not deserve what you give to me.
You rescued me out of my misery.
Now I realize how it used to be.
Never going back for you set me free. I'm overjoyed. I'm overjoyed.
I do not deserve what you give to me.
You rescued me out of my misery.
Now I realize how it used to be.
Never going back for you set me free. I'm overjoyed. I'm overjoyed.

I’m feeling frustrated, annoyed, infuriated
Wish I were ignorant and numb
Oh so insecure, inadequate and inferior
Wish I knew where that feeling comes from
Chorus:
Spinning the wheel of emotions
Where it stops, nobody knows
I’ll feel all the feels, try to keep it real
Deal with the highs and the lows
Where the wheel of emotions goes
Sometimes I feel confusion, perplexed and disillusioned
How I got here, I don’t know
Wish I felt accepted, valued and respected
And knew how to make that so (Chorus)
Sometimes I’m happy and optimistic, hopeful, inspired, maybe not realistic
So powerful I just want to shout
Other times I’m sad and lonely, depressed and hurt. Oh if only
I’d find a way to level it out (Chorus)

It strikes like a serpent
The trespass begins
Unbidden and urgent
The wage of our sins
felt first in the palms
The heat and the flash
The memory of endings
The car set to crash
Always the panic
Always the rush
To know how it’s ending
To feel the crush
I’d walk the earth to forget you
Only to lose my North Star
Can’t turn my back on the memory
Forever tracing the scar
And if you could shake it
Swallow that pill
Forget how it tasted
Bury that thrill
Always the panic
Always the rush
To know how it’s ending
To feel the crush
I’d walk the earth to forget you
Only to lose my North Star
Can’t turn my back on the memory
Forever tracing the scar

v1:
Why do we treat ourselves, we treat ourselves like porcelain dolls
Living every day, every moment, preparing for the fall
There's this little truth, this simple truth, that I have found
Much as we'd like to think we know, we don't know how long we'll be around, so...
ch:
Do something beautiful
Do something magical
Do something absolutely normal, if it gets you through the day
Do something mystifying
Find something new, and try it
It might be terrifying
Do it anyway
v2:
Have you lost your sense of wonder, your joy, your spark
Do you prefer the boredom, the safety, alone in the dark
Don't be careless with your time, your life, your friends
A bit of advice, if you don't mind, I think you should begin to...
ch:
Do something beautiful
Do something magical
Do something absolutely normal, if it gets you through the day
Do something mystifying
Find something new, and try it
It might be terrifying
Do it anyway
br:
How's this for a cliché
Tomorrow's not guaranteed
And here's another
Time will pick up speed
So we'd start living
Can we all agree?
ch:
Do something beautiful
Do something magical
Do something absolutely normal, if it gets you through the day
Do something mystifying
Find something new, and try it
It might be terrifying
Do it anyway
ch:
Do something beautiful
Do something magical
Do something absolutely normal, if it gets you through the day
Do something mystifying
Find something new, and try it
It might be terrifying
Do it anyway
Do it anyway
Do it anyway
Do it anyway
Do it anyway
Do it anyway
Do it anyway

AWKWARD GIRL
OOH WHEN I SAW YOU THERE WITH YOUR BROWN HAIR
AND THE WAY YOU TALK AND THE STORIES THAT YOU SHARE
OOH I COULD WALK AWAY OR I COULD STAY ANOTHER LIFETIME
OH MY AWKWARD GIRL
SAY WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY AND I’LL KEEP MY DISTANCE
GOING FAR AWAY FROM MY PERSISTENCE
OOH I COULD NEVER LOVE AND I COULD NEVER FIND THE TIME
OH MY AWKWARD GIRL
CHANGE ALL THE THINGS THAT CHANGE AND THE THINGS THAT RUN AWAY
AND FOR THE LAST TIME CHANGE YOUR LOVE THIS WAY
I SEE THE SOUTHERN LIGHTS AND TO THE PILGRIMAGE THAT FOLLOWS
OH MY AWKWARD GIRL
EVERYTHING THAT COMES AND GENTLY FADES AWAY
TO ANOTHER PLACE AND ALL THE ENDLESS TIMES I FELT THIS WAY
OOH WHEN I SAW YOU THERE WITH YOUR BROWN HAIR
AND THE WAY YOU TALK AND THE STORIES THAT YOU SHARE
OOH I COULD WALK AWAY OR I COULD STAY ANOTHER LIFETIME
OH MY AWKWARD GIRL
