"Amy Shark" lyrics

I grew up in a small house
Near a cemetery you could hear them howl
As they lower the ones they love in the ground
I pulled out my own baby teeth
The pain never seemed to bother me
I made friends with the kids down the street
I better go its getting late
I've been outside all day
On the walk home work out what I'll say

And I still lose it every now and then
In an interview or a photoshoot
I could be halfway through a show
And it all comes creeping in
And I've sacrificed all my friends
Birthdays weddings everything
And it's heartbreaking but this is my dream
And I did it all without a phone call
Or a Christmas card
You have no heart
This is my way of saying don't start

You should see the shows I play
And hear them sing the words I say
I wonder sometimes if you're in the crowd
Cause I needed help I needed love
I needed care needed a hug
I needed praise
I needed time with you
And it plays on my mind all the time
All the time
I wanna love you
But I need you to try

And I still lose it every now and then
In an interview or a photoshoot
I could be halfway through a show
And it all comes creeping in
And I've sacrificed all my friends
Birthdays weddings everything
And it's heartbreaking but this is my dream
And I did it all without a phone call
Or a Christmas card You have no heart
This is my way of saying don't start
Don't start now I'm winning
And finally happy
Don't start now I've done all the years of hard work
Don't start taking over
And asking for favours
Please just don't start now that
I'm Amy Shark
