Songs For Souls *Song 4* Song Title: Fingers Crossed Inspiration: Billie Elish's Fingers Crossed song Time taken to write: About 40 minutes Description of song: When you're trying to assure everyone that even though someone is trying to hurt you, you're still okay, but you know that you're lying about that. Shoutouts - @glitter_caticorn for telling me that one of her favorite song titles is Fingers Crossed Notes: This was kind of hard for me to write because I've never tried to write songs about getting hurt by someone before XD I normally only write love songs
And I don’t really care about all the things you’re gonna say, all the times you’ll get your way, and all your silly games that you’ll play. I’ll just pretend that I’m okay. And I don’t really care what you’re gonna do, how you’re gonna hurt me, how I’ll break on through. I don’t really mind. I’ll just pretend that I don’t care, that life’s still fair, that I’m still alright. But baby, just know my fingers are crossed. And you break me with your words, tear apart my world, yeah I don’t mind. And I’ve told my friends that I’m alright. That I can keep going a little bit longer. I can be just a little bit stronger. I can keep pushing even though I’m about to break. That I don’t mind. But baby, just know that my fingers are crossed. Oh why? Oh why? Oh why? Oh why? And I understand that people change, but I didn’t want you this way. And I’ve got your attention, but not the way I wished. Never the way I wished. And I’m broken. Can you see me? My shards on the floor of the ranch in Tennessee. And I’m glass. Shattered by a four year old child, was all of this pain worthwhile? No. But I’m okay. And baby, just know that my fingers are crossed. My fingers are crossed.
