Love Song - Sara Bareilles

Let it begin, let Adam in Step one: original sin Underneath the leaves, Adam found Eve Both of them found something sweet under the apple tree Then it was over, roads divide Step two: learning how to lie Let me ask a question to present day How the hell did Eve end up with all the damn blame? All the damn blame To all the dirty looks, the kitty cat calls To the ones who try and throw us up against the back walls Let me tell you something you'll understand Only the little boys tell you they're a big man To all my sisters and all our friends We have to thank them, please Strength means blessed with an enemy Oh, my, my, my, my armor comes from you You make me try, try, try, try harder Oh, that's all I ever do, ever do Oh, no no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you You make me stronger, stronger Now, hand me my armor (Hand me my armor, hand me my armor) Step three: I see The unforgettable, incredible ones who came before me Brought poetry, brought science Sowed quiet seeds of self-reliance Bloom in me, so here I am You think I am high and mighty, mister? Wait 'til you meet my little sister Oh, my, my, my, my armor comes from you You make me try, try, try, try harder Oh, that's all I ever do, ever do Oh, no no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you You make me stronger, stronger Now, hand me my armor What you didn't do to bury me But you didn't know I was a goddamn seed You don't scare me, I am of the earth So tired of your empire Blind men only set the world on fire Sad you can't see it You brought the flame, here comes the phoenix You make me try harder Oh, it's all I ever do, ever do Oh, no no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you You make me stronger, stronger Hand me my armor Oh, my, my, my, my armor comes from you You make me try, try, try, try harder Oh, that's all I ever do, ever do Oh, no no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you You make me stronger, stronger Hand me my armor (Hand me my armor, hand me my armor) (Hand me my armor, hand me my armor) Hand me my armor (Hand me my armor) Hand me my armor, hand me my armor

The afternoon has settled long and heavy on my shoulders The winter's light feels different on my skin It doesn't seem to strike as far below the surface so I have to conclude that shadow won't let it in That shadow won't let it in, shadow won't let it in December... You've always been a problem child December... You run me down right restless and wild And I remember when you used to be mine December... December... The leaves are all still changing, the weather here is mild and vacant A winter's blooming on Los Angeles The artificial cold is more than I was hoping for But not enough to consume the darkened state I'm in The darkened state I'm in, the darkened state I'm in December... You've always been a problem child December... You run me down right restless and wild But I remember when you used to be mine December... December... Distill a whole year down into a day Act like we all start over with a pristine slate But to get yourself a new life you've got to give the other one away And I'm starting to believe in the power of a name Cause it can't be a mistake if I just call it change December... Can't turn around now December... Break the chain, can't live in circles again
