Not Ready for Me lyrics by Erika Harlacher

Verse 1
So here I am again standing at the edge of a break
Shoulders aching from the weight of what you forced me to take
Ears are ringing just ? makes another mistake
And I see you
Up on a higher ground I think your hand is reaching for mine
But something sharp behind your smile catches my eye
It takes my breath away and then all I can see is the sky
As you wave goodbye

Bridge
How many times can someone fall
Before their lungs give out?
How many times can someone crawl
Back to the ledge they have nightmares about?
I lose count of how many times
You pushed me with promises that this time I fly
Then suddenly I opened my eyes
And now I’m
(Hey!)

Chorus
Breaking down all of your cardboard boxes
Cutting up the silhouettes of who you thought I’d be
I may be falling but the clouds I’m crashing through are only clearing away your debris
And now I’m fighting for my life but I’m ready to block this blow
I bet you never saw this coming from your devotee
I’d stand back if I were you because I’m telling you now
Baby, you’re not ready for me

Verse 2
It’s been a while since you left me shattered there on the ground
And I’ve collected all the pieces of myself that I found
Your clutters gone and I’m debating how to fill this space now
Then I see you
It feels nostalgic as I watch your smile crinkle your eyes
And for a moment I’d forgotten every one of your lies
Something shifted and your gravity can’t hold me this time
So I wave goodbye

Bridge
How many times can someone call
Before the line cuts out?
How many times can I stand tall
Against a tide that is pulling me down?
I lost count of how many times
You held me with promises that this time you’d try
Then finally I opened my eyes
And now I’m
(Hey!)

Chorus
Breaking down all of your cardboard boxes
Cutting up the silhouettes of who you thought I’d be
I may be falling but the clouds I’m crashing through are only clearing away your debris
And now I’m fighting for my life but I’m ready to block this blow
I bet you never saw this coming from your devotee
I’d stand back if I were you because I’m telling you now
Baby, you’re not ready

Post Chorus
And I know that to go alone
Can be terrifying
Its hard to reconcile
With the fear that you gave me of flying
But the path in the grass has been split in two
So I take a breathe and make my move
And find I’ve

Outro
Broken down all of your cardboard boxes
Cut up all the silhouettes of who you thought I’d be
No longer falling I just couldn’t see my wings until I cleared away your debris
And now I’m ?
I bet you never saw this coming from your devotee
Stay the hell out of my way because I’m telling you now
Baby, your not ready for me (Oh-Oh! Oh-Oh!)
Your not ready for me (Oh-Oh! Oh-Oh!)
Your not ready for me (Oh-Oh! Oh-Oh!)
Your not ready for me (Oh-Oh! Oh-Oh!)
Your not ready for me (Oh-Oh! Oh-Oh!)
