About

This song is about missing who you were when you were at your lowest. Before therapy, before the pills. Sometimes I feel like I was much more interesting, more complicated, when I was depressed. And I can’t help but “miss the poetry”.

Lyrics

I used to bury myself in a cup of tea
Only swimming out of it to cry and sing
People said that I felt too much
But it'd be worrying if I didn't

You can take the guitar out of the girl
But you can't take the girl out of the guitar

I miss the poetry, I miss the tragedy
The pills took away my personality
What once was me is now a stranger
And I wish I could relate to danger

I was ferocious, I used to scream
Now I'm a lady who sits and cheers
I don't wanna be calm anymore
I want to have my mess of emotions

You can take the guitar out of the girl
But you can't take the girl out of the guitar

I miss the poetry, I miss the tragedy
The pills took away my personality
What once was me is now a stranger
And I wish I could relate to danger

It's one in the morning and I think about that quote
"I'd rather have my heart broken a million times
Than not feel things at all"

I miss being a diva, I miss crying too much
I just yearn for who I was

You can take the guitar out of the girl
But you can't take the girl out of the guitar

I miss the poetry, I miss the tragedy
The pills took away my personality
What once was me is now a stranger
And I wish I could relate to danger

Oh, oh
