lyrics

I’m tired of watching you run
I’m tired of watching you run away
Tired of watching you run
I’m tired of watching you run away

Problems will come as they come
Problems will come then they’ll go away
Problems will come as they come
And I’m tired of watching you run away

You can say you weren’t driving, if that’s how you feel
But I see you baby, your hands are on the wheel
And you can say you weren’t running, if that’s what you want
But your feet sure were racing each other to the front
And you can say you weren’t leaving when you left me alone
But I remember being the only one at home
And you can say it didn’t happen, like you weren’t there
But I saw you baby you were acting like you didn’t care
About me

Not everything can be fun
You can’t always go for the easy way
Not everything can be fun
And I’m tired of watching you run away

If you sit at the table for long enough honey
Eventually you’re gonna have to show me your money
If you keep seeing my face and raising your bets
You might want to wonder what I’m thinking in my head
Cause I won’t be persuaded that this is just a game
Because I’ve seen it in your eyes that you and I are the same
So if you’re still at the table, and you’ve thrown in your heart
You’re gonna have to show me your fuckin cards
Show me your fuckin cards.

Come on over here, I want to show you my beating heart
Show you my beating heart, I wear it on my sleeve.
Come on over here, I want to show you my beating heart
Show you my beating heart. Are you too scared to see it?

Oh I’ve been holding it together for far too long
Together
I’ve been holding it together for far too long
Together, oh

Kristen Rae Bowden Charlottesville, Virginia

The right kind of friction creates glorious sparks. Coursing within the heart and mind of singer-songwriter Kristen Rae Bowden is a beautiful turmoil of tenderness and willfulness. It’s a paradoxical sentiment also evident in her artistic sensibilities. In her upcoming debut, Language and Mirrors, she fluidly, and authentically, inhabits earthy Americana and majestic orchestral rock. ... more
