lyrics

Break It Off-

In the rubix of life, in the tetris of the day,
sometimes I just can’t care, wanna throw it all away
And the days turn to weeks, and the months roll on by
with our feet in the mud and our heads in the sky
We know that this is good, and we know that love is real,
but when nothings working maybe then its
time to seal the deal
*chorus*
Break it off! (break it off)
You know that it’s done
Shut it down! (shut it down)
A new day has begun
Wear it out! (wear it out)
And put something new on
You know its over when its over,
Moving on….
**
Sometimes there are things that just cannot be,
and we can’t open our lives just waiting to see
In life we must learn to get what we need,
so tonight I’m stepping out with me heart upon my sleeve.
We can give it one last chance, we can give it all we got,
but you know there comes a time
to start over at the top…
**
We want, oh we want, we want its so bad,
we keep searching everywhere for this thing that we had.
It’s salt in our wounds to keep this dragging on,
so tonight I’m stepping out for to sing to you this song
We know that this is good, and we know that love is real,
but when nothings working, maybe then it’s
time to seal the deal…

Long Time Coming
by Sierra Ferrell

supported by 8 fans who also own “Break It Off”

Sierra Ferrell's music is the nectar that drips from vocal chords of angels on ecstacy and percocet, dripping with honey, and smelling of grandma's brownies. It has been proven to "cure what ails ya", and it temporarily wards off the existential dread that is slowly encompassing us all. Don't let the absurdity of our existence get you down. Listen to Sierra Ferrell instead. I am me and I approved this message. oldmanj716

Sierra, your music resonates my soul. The voice of Billie Holiday and the stylings of Django, gritty American songwriter music! Thank you!!! Favorite track = Rocket b_ret93
