A GOOD THING Lyrics – Allison Eide
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How many tears does it take
For a human to dehydrate?
Is that even a thing? I don’t know
But I’d like to know
‘Cause yesterday, the husband that God gave me
Gave me a blue flower bouquet
Then I cried, “What if he dies?”
I don’t know, and I’m scared to know
[Pre-Chorus]
Hope feels like a sharp knife
And death has kissed me
Sorry, that’s a lot
But it makes sense why
[Chorus]
I wanna feel seen, don’t wanna be exposed
I wanna feel loved, but I’m too scared to be known
I loathe being inside
But what if a good thing betrays me again?
I wanna feel seen, don’t wanna be exposed
I wanna feel loved, but I’m too scared to be known
I loathe being inside
But what if a good thing betrays me again?
[Verse 2]
What is worse than being naked and alone?
Being naked and then they go
Did Eve feel like that, too?
Is that why she put on clothes?
It feels like running towards a bear
To be loved as I am
But even then, I still can’t take one step away
[Chorus]
I wanna feel seen, don’t wanna be exposed
I wanna feel loved, but I’m too scared to be known
I loathe being inside
But what if a good thing betrays me again?
I wanna feel seen, don’t wanna be exposed
I wanna feel loved, but I’m too scared to be known
I loathe being inside
But what if a good thing betrays me again?
[Bridge]
Convince myself a thousand ways
That good things don’t just die away
Is that truth, or is it just my mind?
Oh God, my body doesn’t trust you
But my soul is crying for you
Help me brace the cost of choosing life
[Chorus]
I wanna feel seen, don’t wanna be exposed
I wanna feel loved, but I’m too scared to be known
I loathe being inside
But what if a good thing betrays me again?
I wanna feel seen, don’t wanna be exposed
I wanna feel loved, but I’m too scared to be known
I loathe being inside
But what if a good thing betrays me again?
Every good thing just betrays me again
