Reaching Out

I don't have a tank full of happy endings
That ship sailed a long time ago
But I find myself at peace in the knowing
This world is full of stories that look quite like my own

I'm tired of being afraid of how the time is changing me
And wearing my heart hard on my sleeve
When asked how I'm doing, I routinely say I'm fine
And now I'm tired of the lie

So I'm reaching out for something better than this
I don't know what it is
But I'm reaching out for something easy to miss
Oh, I think I did
Oh, I think I did
Oh, yeah

Mom and dad don't talk to one another
They used to be friends for a spell long ago
The little girl in me is still recovering
Stepping prints into the world
Still looking for a home

Been living on the edge and out of bags in Tennessee
Sharing my heart with people like me
I told 'em all the truth of how I feel and where I've been
And now I, I wish I never did

So I'm reaching out for something better than this
I don't know what it is
But I'm reaching out for something easy to miss
Oh, I think I did
Oh, I think I did, yeah, yeah
Oh, I think I did

I'm tired of being afraid of how the time is changing me
And scared of my heart worn out on my sleeve
When asked how I'm doing, I'll repel against the lie
Won't say I'm fine
I'll say "I'm trying"

And I'm reaching out for something better than this
I don't know what it is
But I'm reaching out for something easy to miss
Oh, I think I did (oh, I think I did)
Oh, I think I did
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, I think I did
Oh, I think I did

Ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah
