lyrics

What was I supposed to do?
What was I supposed to say,
knowing I'd be hurting you
if I had told you either way?

Could I have found the words to say
just how much I'm in love with you?
Should I have left at the beginning?
Should I stay?

But darling I can't change
these choices I have made.
I wish that there could be
any other way.

CHORUS
I own what I have done
and I own what I have said...
or haven't said.
But I won't be ruled by guilt
I will move on from this.
I can't hold on to you.

About which time should I have left
and broken up our happiness,
and shattered future dreams we shared
with secrets bursting through my chest?

Could I have another try
to play this game of life with you?
Roll the die to drive past the hurt
or tell the truth?

But wishing cannot change
these turns that I have played.
Lying was never part
of our childhood game.

CHORUS

Though it was my mistake
that brought us here today
I'll leave it up to you
to decided our fate.

Now you'll own what you will do,
and you'll own what you will say...
or never say.
Please don't be ruled by hurt.
You can move on from this.
Please don't hold on.

But I can't tell you what to do.
I can't tell you what to say.
Choices that we make stay with us
everyday....

Lady Laura Chicago, Illinois

After losing the band she loved, and the husband she loved even more, Lady Laura is out on her own writing about what it means to lose everything she thought defined her, and how she rebuilds. Her debut album, JEZEBEL, chronicles this with only her voice & piano to focus on what it means to be solo and alone. The result: songs that are emotionally raw, revealing, and, in the end, empowering. ... more
