[Verse 1]
I try to get rid of your scent
I wash my hair in hopes of getting you out my head
I try to erase you from my hands
I clean my skin so I forget where I have been
[Pre-chorus]
I’ve tried everything but somehow it’s not sinking in
I’ve tried everything, yeah I’ve tried
[Chorus]
That is why I bathe, that is why I bathe
That is why I bathe in salt water
[Verse 2]
There is nothing that I wouldn’t do
To feel like I could be someone completely new
So I treated myself, but now I know
That new shoes and new clothes
Can’t fix a broken heart, no
[Pre-chorus]
I’ve tried everything to feel like myself again
I’ve tried everything,
I’ve tried but somehow it still stings
I’ve tried everything
But somehow it’s not sinking in
I’ve tried everything
Yeah, I’ve tried
[Chorus]
That is why I bathe, that is why I bathe
That is why I bathe in salt water
That is why I bathe, that is why I bathe
Even through the pain, in salt water
[Outro]
So now I bathe in salt water
I know it hurts, but that’s all part of
The way to heal and make you stronger
That’s why I bathe in salt water

Calendar Girl

[Verse 1]
Same morning coffee but I’m drinking double time
What’s in my wardrobe that might play to what he likes?
Been counting down the days to this, won’t doubt him for the sake of it
I can’t set myself up to fall, no one’s the same as who came before
[Pre-chorus]
People come and people go, and sometimes they want more
Is that what you’re here for?
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna be another calendar girl
Someone you can leave without a care in the world
If you’re wanting something longer than a month, then maybe we can make this work
I don’t wanna be another calendar girl
[Verse 2]
So over summer loving, I wanna make it through
Four seasons, all or nothing, no time I wouldn’t do
So sign me up for 9 to 5, I’m always down for overtime
If you’re here to put in the work, you’re worth the risk to get hurt
[Pre-chorus]
People come and people go, and sometimes they want more
Is that what you’re here for?
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna be another calendar girl
Someone you can leave without a care in the world
If you’re wanting something longer than a month, then maybe we can make this work
I don’t wanna be another calendar girl

Lights Out

[Verse 1]
I’m turning down the lights
Stare at the ceiling and blackout our feelings tonight
Just for a while
They say that love is blind
And that’s why you clearly can’t see what’s between you and I
It’s been on my mind
[Chorus]
This isn’t working but maybe if we turn the lights out
Can we turn the lights out?
If we turn the lights out
We can’t see what's going on
Or watch it go wrong
[Verse 2]
We’ve still got chemistry
It's not hard to imagine why we can't abandon this easily
And if I’m being honest
It’s slowly killing me
Get it out of my head, put this to bed and just sleep
Just let me sleep on it
[Chorus]
If we turn the lights out
Can we turn the lights out?
If we turn the lights out
We can’t see what's going on
Or watch it go wrong
Can we turn the lights out?
Can we turn the lights out?
Please turn the lights out
So we can’t see what's going on
Or watch it go wrong with the lights out
[Outro]
Oh, turn the lights down
Oh, if we turn the lights down

[Verse 1]
Some say I’m no good at expressing
The heart worn on my sleeve is my sense of fashion
Maybe it’s time I tried something a little different
Now the penny’s dropped and I’m a girl on a mission
[Pre]
I’m not saying that I won’t take your advice
But I’m not paying, waiting 6 months down the line for someone
To be claiming that they are qualified to change my mind
Let’s compromise
[Chorus]
I think I know what’s good for me
A little bit of retail therapy
My mama says I gotta tread carefully
So I bought new shoes with urgency
I think it’s a conspiracy
That life makes sense in your twenties
The only thing that makes sense to me
Is a little bit of retail therapy
[Verse 2]
Can’t pay to be happy with your money
Well that’s a shame, have I just saved it all for nothing?
Won’t watch it go to waste, so maybe I’ll buy a little something
When the penny drops, will I still feel how I feel?
[Pre]
I’m not saying that I was wrong, you were right
But I’m praying, hoping I won’t pay the price for trying
Now I’m swaying from left to right, I can’t decide
So let’s rewind
[Chorus]
I think I know what’s good for me
A little bit of retail therapy
My mama says I gotta tread carefully
So I bought new shoes with urgency
I think it’s a conspiracy
That life makes sense in your twenties
The only thing that makes sense to me
Is a little bit of retail therapy
[Bridge]
I know you want what’s best for me
I’ll admit defeat, but it’s a victory in my eyes
I’ll go and talk to somebody who can make it right
But for one last time
[Chorus]
I think I know what’s good for me
A little bit of retail therapy
My mama says I gotta tread carefully
So I bought new shoes with urgency
I think it’s a conspiracy
That life makes sense in your twenties
The only thing that makes sense to me
Is a little bit of retail therapy
[Outro]
Yeah that’s good for me
That retail therapy, good for me
I need some more retail therapy
‘Cause that’s good for me
Retail therapy, ah
