Reaching Out - Caroline Pennell

Young in denialstopped for a while

Waiting for her luck to change

She reckless and stupid

Love seems so useless to her in it’s golden days

But trying too hard became a habit of hers

She pushed him out the door with goodbyes left unheard.

Changing the scenery,

changing her ways

Nothing seems to change

She’s reaching out to no one

Waiting on a heartbreak

Trying to find somewhere to run

And she’s holding her heart on her sleeve

Just in case he’s in love

He’s in love

Hours turn to days and days turn into months

Still no sign of anyone

She’s lonely and desperate

Seeking attention

Praying that he might show up

She’s wasting her time fighting this battle alone

Breaking into pieces every time she finds hope

Hiding her demons and keeping them close

So no one ever knows

She’s reaching out to no one

Waiting on a heartbreak

Trying to find somewhere to run

And she’s holding her heart on her sleeve

Just in case he’s in love

He’s in love

Cause she’s been stuck in this hole filled with her heart and her soul

Making her feel trapped inside

But she’ll realize one day that giving up is okay

And all her tears were a waste of time

Still she prays he’s in love

And she waits for the day he comes

And she prays he’s in love

He’s in love

She’s reaching out to no one

Waiting on a heartbreak

Trying to find somewhere to run

And she’s holding her heart on her sleeve

She’s reaching out to no one

Waiting on a heartbreak

Trying to find somewhere to run

And she’s holding her heart on her sleeve

Just in case he’s in love

He’s in love
