Jes Perry: Music
My Other Half
Verse 1
My other half looks thru' the mirror at me, and what does she see? My other half knows what has to be done, and she fights for it. But I push her down and say it's procrastination, lack of motivation.
Chorus
Why do I let the good things go? Why can't I do what's meant to be ? Instead of blaming it all on the TV.
Verse 2
My other half wants to do something great, just once. My other half, makes plans and knows she's gonna win the big lottery. But her joy's snuffed out by my loveless interference.
Chorus
Why do I let the good things go? Why can't I do what's meant to be? Instead of blaming it all on the TV.
Bridge
And some say dreams fade, but I say we let them die. Doubt and can't and bills to pay, kill our child's need to play, we kill our child's dreams away.
Verse 3
My other half is brave and true inside of me, but I don't let her breathe. My other half is all the things I can't be, but if she's truly me; she's looked and seen enough to know she doesn't want to be me.
Chorus
Why do I let the good things go? Why can't I do what's meant to be? Instead of blaming it all on the TV, I blame it on TV, instead of blaming me.
