Trading Up
(annrenee)
Spent some time getting by- so much I lived without
Tried so hard to be content, even though I had my doubts
But living by half measures isn’t what my life’s about
Starting over… I’m trading up
Wondered if the day would come when I’d get as good as I gave
Dug myself a hole so deep it was less a rut, and more a grave
Light beneath the bushel, why that’s no way to behave
But I’m done now… I’m trading up
Drops of rain on the desert floor; don’t know how I made do before
‘cause it only leaves me wanting more…& more… & more&...& more… & more….
The clock is always ticking- you can sit and watch the time elapse
And I was just a chicken till I saw my house of cards collapse
But I deserve much better than just begging for the scraps
And I’ll get it… cause I’m trading up
I’m trading up… ahh… I’m trading up
