Amanda Shires The Problem (feat. Jason Isbell)
[Jason]
Remember Katie White?
She jumped the fence that night
She ran away in tears
Your sister drank her beer
[Amanda]
We were just eighteen
The older girls could be so mean
I was talking just to talk
[Jason]
And you were still in shock
[Chorus, Jason]
And all I could think to say
Was "Everything's going to be okay
It's going to be alright
I'm on your side"
I'm on your side
[Jason]
What are you gonna do?
[Amanda]
I'm scared to even say the truth
This has been the hardest year
[Jason]
Is it even legal here?
[Amanda]
I'm trying not to think of names
And will you look at me the same?
Do you need the reasons why?
Is a chrysalis a butterfly?
[Chorus, Jason and Amanda]
And all I could think to say
Is "Everything's going to be okay
It's going to be alright
I'm on your side"
I'm on your side
[Amanda]
And no one has to know
[Jason and Amanda]
The scars won't even show
[Amanda]
At least that's what I've heard
No bigger than a baby bird (No bigger than a baby bird)
No bigger than a baby bird (No bigger than a baby bird)
[Amanda]
Do you think God still sees me?
Coming out of this twilight sleep
I'm not sure who I am
[Jason and Amanda]
Staring into my empty hands
[Chorus, Jason and Amanda]
And all I could think to say
Was "Everything's going to be okay
It's going to be alright
I'm on your side"
I'm on your side
