Vanessa Lively

Lyrics for Part of Me

Lying next to her / I feel the wind at my feet / I see the flakes in her hair / I see her bones and I weep / ‘Cause part of me wants to cry / And part of me wants to be / Locked up inside my car / Driving away at full speed / At full speed

And I don’t know why some of us get to leave / Some of us stay to fight / And some of us just breath / And I wanna be closer to them / I want them closer to me / And then I can fully be / I can fully be / I can, I can fully be

Walk across the street / there’s a gang of guys out there / They wanna wash your car / They wanna park you just right over there / But really all they want is to make an honest dime / And all they got on their bloodless hands is lots and lots of time / A lotta time

And I don’t know why some of us get by so free / Some of us try and try / And some of us just bleed / And I wanna be closer to them / I want them closer to me / And then I can fully be / I can fully be / I can, I can fully be

And what is it that we all want as human beings I mean / We wanna feel safe, we wanna feel free / But finding ways to make an honest dime isn’t as easy as it seems / When the whole world is against you and against your dreams / Against your dreams / Again and again and against your dreams

Lying next to him / I feel the wind at my feet / I see the flakes in his hair / I see his bones and I weep / ‘Cause part of me wants to cry / And part of me wants to be / Locked up inside my car / Driving away at full speed / At full speed
