Elope

[Verse 1]
How do I manage?
How do I balance this?
I need my family
But I need your hand in this

Too many secrets to hold
Look at the damages
Broken and banished
Too deep for bandages, yeah
Mmm, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
What do I do, so much to lose
Still in my youth, with a decision to choose
Tradition is old, my thinking is new
Unamerican girl with an American view

I’m sorry to you, I’m sorry to god
I’m sorry for pain and I’m sorry for love
I picked up the phone, to give you a call
And worked up the nerve to say nothing at all
Nothing at all

[Chorus]
I can’t fight no more
I can’t try no more, no no
Can you find remorse?
Cause I can’t lie no more, no no
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah

[Verse 2]
How do I manage?
How do I balance this?
Since you broke the family
I’ll build us back again

You left me all on my own
Traded your love for your home, yeah
Look at the damage
It came from you vanishing

How could you leave?
How could you go?
I was naïve, waiting for you by the door
You left us for good, your mom had a stroke
You were too young, and now our parents are old

I’m sorry for you, I’m sorry for Ma
I’m sorry for all of the pain that it brought
I picked up the phone, another silent call
I waited for words and heard nothing at all
Nothing at all

[Chorus]
I can’t fight no more
I can’t try no more, no no
Can you find remorse?
Cause I can’t lie no more, no no

I can’t fight no more
I can’t try no more, no no
Can you find remorse?
Cause I can’t lie no more, no no

I can’t fight no more
I can’t try no more, no no
Can you find remorse?
Cause I can’t lie no more, no no

I can’t fight no more
I can’t try no more, no no
Can you find remorse?
Cause I can’t lie no more, no no
