Too Much

When I tell a story the people around me
Have always felt it on the inside
In a 10 minute tale I could make you believe you were there
With them you laughed or you cried
I could build the idea of a stranger so high in your mind
Now you love him too
I could smooth over liars in layers so thick
That even your rationale can't get through
'Cause that's what I've done since the dawn of my voice
Since I found the words, they found me
Yes that's what I do, I retell the truth
So even if you don't know me you can see

That I have always been
"The Girl Who Cared Too Much"
About everything
Or anyone

There's a place in my head where secrets I keep
Have been spilling out of their room
Each time they escape they leave pieces behind
So I wait for new secrets to bloom
And you've been here in this room in my head every week
Since I opened my eyes and it went down
Yes I've been here with what's left of my heart in my hands
And all of your words on repeat now
So I spend time in the night rearranging the furniture
So each thing has its place
And I keep it all here, like a hoarder of fear
And I've been running low on free space

Cause I have always been
"The Girl Who Knew Too Much"
About everyone
And anything

So what becomes of the girl with a mouth like a faucet
Quenching your lips or cracking them dry
What do you say to the girl, whose eyes change their color
As she points them up to an ambering sky
Tell her it's a strength
Tell her it's a weakness
Lay it all out on the table
Tell her either way
Good or bad
She should come with a Warning Label

Cause I have always been
"The Girl Who Was Too Much"
For everything
Or anyone
For everyone
Or anything
For everything
Or anyone
