Compassion Exhaustion Lyrics by Bridget Allan

Outsider

2020

People make me uneasy, we are not human
Am I the villain of this story?
I am so faint and outside my body, I have never handled the hot sun well
My room will be a black hole, I haven’t been home all weekend
All the fire in my tank has been given to other people emotions
I’ll always be ready to leap into cold water to you
Walking in the dark, my fingers burn
Ashes in my eyes
I look over my shoulder and squeeze your hand
This land is apart of me, and all I've got is these 12 notes
And how you all show me the world
Oh I’m all I’ve got
I’m all I’ve got
Hello brother, we are all either of us will have
We are the change we want to see
I’ll be brave as long you mirror, are not a stranger to me
I have compassion exhaustion and cuts on my hands from opening bottles
You said: I want to remember every time you looked into my green eyes that night
It makes me cry when I should smile
Oh I’m all I’ve got
Hello brother, we are all either of us will have
We are the change we want to see
I’ll be brave as long you mirror, are not a stranger to me
Oh we are all I’ve got
We are all I’ve got
Hello brother
Hello brother
It makes me cry when I should smile
