about

I wrote this song when I felt like I couldn't get my shit together for the life of me.

And yes, my ace of cups is literally covered in lipstick stains. I used to carry it in my purse and one time my red lipstick opened inside my purse and smeared all over it.

lyrics

Verse 1
Get me out of this nightmare, I’m feeling trapped
Throw me a lifeline, cut me some slack
Give me the answers, I need the facts
Say you’ll shelter me, please

Chorus
Won’t you shelter me?
I need a place to hide
Will you rescue me from all the chaos that’s outside?
I need some room to breathe
Give me the key to unlock your door
‘Cause I don’t wanna be alone here anymore

Verse 2
I’m a creature of habit, I never change
Uncertainty has me feeling strange
I’m sick and tired of all these games
And I need some release

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
What will it take for me to change
When all my habits were forged by flames?
And my ace of cups is covered lipstick stains
Still paying interest for my every mistake
