Lyrics:
I am never trusting anyone, that part of my heart is lost and gone
Promises unkept depressed and under slept
Always wondering why I never see it coming
People sure are something
I will never know just why I can't say no
​
Spending time with you was bad for me
I let you in my life easily
I saw warning signs but I didn't mind
Cause I figured I'm a beggar not a chooser
Even with abusers
I will never know just why I can't say no
​
Everything that happens starts and ends the same
I should know by now that I'm the one to blame
Why do I
Give my heart out just to know that one day
I will cry and cry
​
I do not wish harm to anyone
Sorry that it's time that you are gone
I can't be your friend
It will never end
Friends don't put their friends in such traumatic danger
Now you're just a stranger
And so on I'll go
Just trying to say no

It's, so beautiful! Thank you for this heartfelt performance!

Your music means the world to me. I found your album during a 2 year on and off non-relationship and it's been on repeat for months and months in my apartment. Gave my whole heart to someone who couldn't give a damn but kept me there anyway, making nasty comments about my appearance, intelligence along the way. There is something heartbreaking in hearing this music and knowing I am not even close to alone in this pain. I hope with all my heart that since writing this album, you have found healing, hope and the joy you deserve, and that these things one day find me as well. Love and oodles of well wishes from a NY singer songwriter who continues everyday to 'try some more'.

joanna, I just came across your album recently and it seems to speak straight to my heart !!!!! I can‘t put into words how much it means to me and how less alone and seen it makes me feel. It’s so heartbreakingly beautiful. Thank you soso much!
I‘m a singer, too, and I would lovelovelove to be able to play this one on my guitar so I can accompany myself but I can‘t find the chords anywhere. Would you be comfortable sharing them? if not that‘s okay and I‘ll just keep singing it without the guitar^^ Again, thank you so much for your music, it‘s come into my life at the perfect time it seems, as music so often does
