PURPOSE - music by DREI , remix song Two Houses, One Heart by Ali paterson
whispered vocals] Two houses One heart Where do I start Where do I start [Verse 1] Sunday shoes, hair done nice Bible on the table, can't be late "Good girls no additude, don't raise your voice" Every little feeling, somebody else’s choice Other house, locked door, phone in the bed Laughing in the kitchen like I’m already dead "Live your life, we don’t care what you do" Leaving me behind was the thing they did [Pre-Chorus] Pulled in half, I was praying and I was hiding Smiles in class, but my chest was always tightening Growing up fast, got a ring, got a home Still I hear those echoes when I’m all alone [Chorus] Now I got a family, but I’m split in two Two ghosts arguing what I should do Sometimes I can’t handle my mind, lose control Wanna melt down, break down, crawl in a hole I just wanna be alone, let the world fall Never feel deserving of it all Two houses in my head that collide But I’m still standing in the middle of the fight [Verse 2] Little girl, big storm Taught to obey, Taught to pray One side said, "sin," when I walked out Other side just left, never gave a second glance Now I tuck my kids in, lights turned low Smile on my face, but my hands still cold Say grace at dinner, then I stare at the wall Scared that one day they’ll see me fall [Pre-Chorus] Heart on mute, but my brain keep screaming Torn between duty and my own meaning I’m the bridge they built out of blame and fear Still fixing cracks with a single tear [Chorus] Now I got a family, but I’m split in two Two ghosts arguing what I should do Sometimes I can’t handle my mind, lose control Wanna melt down, break down, crawl in a hole I just wanna be alone, let the world fall Never feel deserving of it all Two houses in my head that collide But I’m still standing in the middle of the fight [Bridge] [low vocal register] If I run, who am I If I stay, who am I I’ve been split since day one But my daughter’s eyes say "you’re enough" [building beat] I’m not their rules, not their leaving Not their silence, not their preaching [Chorus] Now I got a family, but I’m split in two Two ghosts arguing what I should do Sometimes I can’t handle my mind, lose control Wanna melt down, break down, crawl in a hole I just wanna be alone, let the world fall Never feel deserving of it all Two houses in my head that collide But I’m still standing in the middle of the fight
