The jar Lyrics by Emma Flint

the explanation

2020

[spoken]
I wanted to run
I wanted to jump
I wanted a way
To get back my fun
I wanted to sing
I wanted to dance
But most of all
I wanted a chance
A chance to live my life again
Without my emotions dead
A chance to get the life
That a teenage girl should have
And I got it
Because of the jar
Now here I am
I’ve come so far
Because of the jar
The words that I heard
Through hot pink earbuds
They changed my life
Like any miracle does
A miracle made by three
Boys just past my age
A miracle that gave me a life
At which optimists could gaze
And I got it
Because of the jar
Now here I am
I’ve come so far
Because of the jar
Because of the jar
Because of the jar
I got it
Because of the jar
I owe my life to you
Dramatic as it sounds, it’s true
And saying it’s long overdue
‘Cause I so need to thank you
I know you’ll never hear this
But for me, writing it is bliss
So I’m forever grateful
That I gave you a listen
