Better Than I Know Myself
Written by Jilian Linklater and Sandra Lawrence
You touch my skin but I can feel it in my bones
You’re looking in my eyes but walking through my soul
Like you already knew me, like I’m your favorite movie
You kiss the words right from my mouth and leave my speechless
Can’t help but laugh thinking I cannot believe this
I can’t believe this
You know me better than I know myself
You know me better than anybody else
And it’s crazy, it’s crazy to me
How you see all of me
And you still love me
I say the strangest things you seem to understand it
Anyone else would think I’m from another planet
They’d say look at her flown in from Jupiter
But not you not you no not you
You pave the way for every crazy thing I do
You know me better than I know myself
You know me better than anybody else
And it’s crazy, it’s crazy to me
How you see all of me
And you still love me
You tell me you don’t want a cookie cutter plain jane
Perfect really isn’t perfect don’t you ever change
Oh you make me feel so beautiful
You know me better than I know myself
You know me better than anybody else
And it’s crazy, it’s crazy to me
How you see all of me
And you still love me

There’s this road you never saw yourself going down
A dark place you swore you’d never be found
And when you got there didn’t know how you got there
Thinking it’d be easier to disappear
If you wanna be a fight fight fighter
There’s gotta be a fi fi fire
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
If you wanna be a fight fight fighter
There’s gotta be a fi fi fire
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
If you wanna be a fight fight fighter
It’s the battle scars that make us who we are
The black holes are the reason that we’ve come so far
If you think you’re not tough enough
And you’re feeling like your hands are cuffed
It’d be easy to give up
Are you gonna give up?
If you wanna be a fight fight fighter
There’s gotta be a fi fi fire
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
If you wanna be a fight fight fighter
There’s gotta be a fi fi fire
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
If you wanna be a fight fight fighter
A fight fight fighter
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Do you wanna be a fight fight fighter
If you wanna be a fight fight fighter
There’s gotta be a fi fi fire
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
If you wanna be a fight fight fighter
There’s gotta be a fi fi fire
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
There’s gotta be a wall to break down
If you wanna be a fight fight fighter
A fight fight fighter
Darlin’ you’re fight fight fighter
Magnet
Written by Jilian Linklater
It’s getting late
I could be going but I stay
Close to you but still too far away
I’ve never felt so safe
And as I try to leave
Something’s holding onto me
Our fingertips they start to touch
And I want you so much
Your love is like a magnet
And I don’t want to resist it
What’s the point in acting like I don’t feel it
I’ve felt love before
It always left me wanting so much more
Now all I’ll ever need
Is holding onto me
‘Cause your love is like a magnet
And I don’t want to resist it
What’s the point in acting like I don’t feel it
‘Cause love is like a magnet
And I don’t want to resist it
What’s the point in acting like I don’t feel it
Baby I don’t wanna be anywhere but caught up in you
Baby I don’t wanna be anywhere but right beside you
Baby I don’t wanna be anywhere but caught up in you
Baby I can’t be anywhere but here
Your love is like a magnet
And I don’t want to resist it
What’s the point in acting like I don’t feel it
Baby I don’t wanna be anywhere but caught up in you
Baby I don’t wanna be anywhere but right beside you
Baby I don’t wanna be anywhere but caught up in you
Baby I can’t be anywhere but here
‘Cause your love is like a magnet
And I don’t want to resist it
What’s the point in acting like I don’t feel it
Everybody Knows
Written by Jilian Linklater
Jenny told the woman at the grocery store
She heard it from behind her mother's bedroom door
No telling how fast the news will go
Now everybody knows what they already know
Whispers of how she just couldn’t wait
Fall silent to the floor as she walks their way
Left handed ring lets the truth be told
Now everybody knows what they already know
She’ll be wearing white on her wedding day
With her mommas pearls and daddy’s shame
No point in hiding what she starts to show
Now everybody knows what they already know
Walking Stories
Written by Jilian Linklater
On a curbside in Chicago sits a warn out cardboard sign
And a man who’s hope was hard to find
Until a woman with nine dollars to her name
Dropped a coin into that old man’s cup of change
We’re all walking stories another page to turn
A paperback expression of a life worth being told
Every step we take another scribble on the page
We’re all walking stories, what’s your's gonna say
There was a time when black and white couldn’t live side by side
And skin was the only color you would see
But that all changed the day one woman wouldn’t give up her seat
And Martin Luther shouted out “I have a dream”
We’re all walking stories another page to turn
A paperback expression of a life worth being told
Every step we take another scribble on the page
We’re all walking stories, what’s your's gonna say
There was a man back before me and you
Who put his life upon a tree
And bleed the blood that washed all us sinners clean
And gave forgiveness to all humanity
We’re all walking stories another page to turn
A paperback expression of a life worth being told
Every step we take another scribble on the page
We’re all walking stories, what’s your's gonna say
