[Lyric] Really Big Shrimp (Carly Cosgrove)

I didn't expect a thing
The soundtrack for too many beers
Seven songs in two years
And somehow, you’re not bored yet

Forgive my apprehension
I just wanna keep this safe
That's forty ounces of faith
And not a drop was poured yet
That's why I say

Love? Don’t give me that
'Til I can give you something back

Why would I say no
To my dream from forever ago?
You want me to get up and go?
Let me pull back the curtain

There's a couch with my name on it
In front of my face, a phone
In front of my "body", a "home"
A life where consistency is certain
That's why I say

Love? Don't give me that
'Til I can give you something back
No proof intact
Won't have me sold and I will
Fold myself in half
Before I snap and I will hold
Myself to that
Until I give you something back

I cleared the bar I set, what more could I achieve?
I know this room so well that I'm afraid to leave
I just wanna cut my teeth a few more times
Keep away from tempting signs
Make no friends and take no risks
So no one gets to fuck with this

Love? Don’t give me that
’Til I can give you something back
No proof intact
Won't have me sold and I will
Fold myself in half
Before I snap and I will hold
Myself to that
Until I give you something back
Love? Don’t give me that
'Til I can give you something back
No proof intact
Won't have me sold and I will
Fold myself in half
Before I snap and I will hold
Myself to that
Until I give you something back

I cherish a time
When nobody paid attention
And I sang and I played and I vented
And twenty-five people shrugged

I cherish my life
Before the sudden potential
For twenty-five minutes, I'm special
As soon as they’re over, I'm not
