Lyrics
"won her heart" by Katie Darke
If you didn't get with her
Maybe I could be happy for you
But you know that you won her heart
When I was lying close to you

If I didn't see this far
Maybe I could just hide from the truth
I know that you're happier
When she's the one close to you

And maybe then
I could see your face
And maybe then
I wouldn't have to run from this place
And all our friends
Could stay the same
'Cause you know them
They never wanted anything to change

I'd tell you how I like that song
The one that reminds me of you
And we'd say that we're better off
Knowing all that we'd been through
You and me would still be friends
Even after all our time together
I'd let you go in the end
Send you off to find forever

And maybe then
I could see your face
And maybe then
I wouldn't have to run from this place
And all our friends
Could stay the same
'Cause you know them
Never wanted anything to change

Now you finally said you're sorry
Even after all this time
No need to hurry
I shed you from my mind

I think we could have laughed together
Maybe shared a walk in the park
You and me coulda had forever
To find our flowers in the dark

And maybe then
I could see your face
And maybe then
I wouldn't have to run from this place
And all our friends
Could stay the same
'Cause you know them
They never wanted anything to change

"butterflies" by Katie Darke
She said she's still got butterflies when she kissed me
So why'd she go start kissing someone else
Thought I saw her smile, thought she was happy
One day she went and put me on the shelf

Wonder if they take the same trips we did
Listen to the same songs in the car
Is she as close with your mom and your sister
Is she afraid of how you broke my heart

Ain't nobody like a liar
Everybody still believes a lie
Tell me then, were you just lying
Or did you really still get butterflies

Ran into your roommate at a house show
She said you found a place on Halsey Street
I guess she used to be my friend also
I said congrats and turned away to leave

Ain't nobody like a liar
Everybody still believes a lie
Tell me then, were you just lying
Or did you really get those butterflies

Run off to the moon to see things clearer
Drive away but you're still on my mind
I see your smile when I look in the mirror
I close my eyes and try to hide
But I can't fend off butterflies
Oh I don't wanna believe the lies
Just wanna believe you got butterflies
Oh I don't wanna believe the lies
Just wanna believe you got butterflies

Don't know where you are and I don't know you
Your face still looks the same there in my mind
You're with her and I've moved on without you
If I saw you again I'd get butterflies

Ain't nobody like a liar
Everybody still believes the lies
Tell me then, were you just lying
Or did you really still get butterflies

Oh I don't wanna believe the lies
Just wanna believe you got butterflies
Oh I don't wanna believe the lies
Just wanna believe you got butterflies

"My Moon" by Katie Darke
My moon, my baby
How every day you save me
Your gravity, how it pulls me in
How I'm alone and there you are again
My beau, my honey
Your very eyes, they melt me
You come on over just to make me smile
It don't matter if it's been a while

Cause I know you'll be coming home to me
We both know that's the way it's always gonna be
I know you'll be coming home to me
So don't tell me it ain't how it's gonna be

My moon, my wonder
Come on under these covers
All I want is to hold you close
Feel your warmth and kiss your nose

My beau, my stunner
You know everybody loves you
And it don't matter, I know you love to roam
I'll be waiting for you here at home

Cause I know you'll be coming home to me
We both know that's the way it's always gonna be
I know you'll be coming home to me
So don't tell me it ain't how it's gonna be
So don't tell me it ain't how it's gonna be
Don't tell me it ain't how it's gonna be
My June, my Sunday
You're gonna have it all one day
I know you know alone it ain't enough
I'll be right here when it gets too tough

Cause I know you'll be coming home to me
We both know that's the way it's always gonna be
I know you're the only one for me
So don't tell me it ain't how it's gonna be
Don't tell me it ain't how it's gonna be

"Just a Day" by Katie Darke
It's just a day, it's just a day
It's just a day like any other
It's just a day, just one more day

I'm waiting on the sight of the moon
To whisper all I know it can tell
I dance 'round the floor of my room
Finally writing lines for myself

They go it's just a day, it's just a day
It's just a day like any other
I could be afraid, throw a pity parade
Run right on home to my mother
But the sun's gonna rise and the sun's gonna set
I'll be on the other side of it
It's just a day, just one more day

The only way out is go through
When you're cleaning up the mess that you made
It wasn't what you meant to do
But the moon'll come up, the sun fades

Numbers used to speak to my heart
They're nothing but a Monday this year
You're stuck in your dreams torn apart
You can't see all the love that is near

Or that it's just a day, it's just a day
It's just a day like any other
You could be afraid, throw a pity parade
Run right on home to your mother
But the sun's gonna rise and the sun's gonna set
You'll be on the other side of it
It's just a day, just one more day

Yeah, the sun's gonna rise and the sun's gonna set
We'll be on the other side of it
It's just a day, just one more day

"Open Door" by Katie Darke
Are you scared of failure
Are you scared of what it takes to succeed
Are you scared of me

See the world around you
All doing what it takes to breathe
Forget the things we've seen

Running through the open door
When there's a window closed
But you don't know

Who tells you when to smile
Who owns the sparkle in your eyes
Your disguise

Make it worth your while or
You can watch as it's slipping out your hand
Running out of sand

Running through the open door
When there's a window closed
Raise your hand, say there's nothing more
Like you already know
But you don't know
You don't know
Yeah, you don't know
You don't know

You ain't even driving
You're just waiting for the load
Head down, keep surviving
You're standing in the cold
While the storm unfolds
While the storm unfolds
While the storm unfolds
While the storm unfolds

Grit your teeth and bear it
Or fill your lungs and go screaming at the stars
Won't get you far
So you bite your tongue and smile
Or bite your thumb at whoever leaves you bruised
Always gonna lose

Running through the open door
When there's a window closed
Raise your hand, say there's nothing more
Like you already know
But you don't know
You don't know
Yeah, you don't know
You don't know

"Day You Stayed" by Katie Darke
Started out innocent enough
With the roads covered in ice
Tried to leave but crashed my car
Came out to me I took it as a sign
Took it as a sign
Took it as a sign

Pulled you in, whispered my secrets
Held me close, gave me your pain
Every day we watched the snow melt
Lover's thoughts replaced our names
Replaced our names

Held my hand, said don't be afraid
You told me not to walk away
Held my hand, said don't be afraid
You told me not to walk away
It was the day

It was the day you stayed
It was the day you stayed
It was the day you stayed
It was the day you stayed

You gave me back a plant I bought last summer
And cologne that smelled like you'd always be mine
You didn't want to see it on your counter
I didn't want to have to look in your eyes
Have to look in your eyes

Don't know if it's what I'd find
But I guess you might be right
Don't know if it's what I'd find
But I guess you might be right
I'd see in time

You were always mine
You were always mine
You were always mine
You were always mine

"Wonder Woman" by Katie Darke
She don't need a man
She don't need a map
She don't need nothing but the clothes on her back
Don't need no one to guide her
She feels it in her bones
She's headed out to see the world
She goes where no one goes

Climbing over mountains
She's diving in the sea (Ooooh)
Running through the jungle
See all she can be (Ooooh)
Every day's a new day
She sees opportunity (Ooooh)
It's my chance to change this world
You just wait and see

Go on wonder woman
Give yourself the world (Ooooh)
Ain't no one to stop you now
You ain't no little girl (Ooooh)
Go on wonder woman
Be all you can be (Ooooh)
Show us all how it's done
Unveil your mystery (Ooooh)

Water level's rising
She knows it's getting hot (Ooooh)
Cries cause she can't fix it all
That don't make her stop (Ooooh)
Put in all her hours
She tries to educate (Ooooh)
She says I'll make a difference in this world
Before my dying day (Ooooh)

Go on wonder woman
Be all you can be (Ooooh)
Show us all how it's done
Unveil your mystery (Ooooh)
Go on wonder woman
Give yourself the world (Ooooh)
Ain't no one to stop you now
You ain't no little girl (Ooooh)

Wonder woman (Wonder woman)
Go wander, yeah (Go wander, yeah)
Wonder woman (Wonder woman)
Go wander, yeah (Go wander, yeah)
Wonder woman (Wonder woman)
Go wander, yeah (Go wander, yeah)
Wonder woman (Wonder woman)
Go wander (Go wander)
Go wander (Go wander)
Go wander (Go wander)
