I'll be the one

I'll be the one
Sometimes when I open my mouth
It's anyone's guess what might come out
Last one to know is usually me
My life is an open book
I'll spell it out for you, you can take a look
You might not like what you see
And hey, I'm not what you're looking for
I can tell you that and so much more

I'll be the one
Who makes you cry
I'll be the first
To say goodbye
You'll look for me
And I'll be gone
I will be, I will be the one

The girl in the sunshine dress
With her backpack full of emptiness
Won't be misleading you today
She knows from the soles of her shoes
There's a lot more here than lonely blues
Seems that's the only thing she plays
And hey, I'm not the girl you used to know
And that's why you gotta let me go
I know these aren't the words you wanted me to say
But you've go to give it to yourself before you give it all away
Give it all away
