My Maria (The Voice Performance) - Josh Gallagher

Was it all just pretend back then when You said you loved me for me Cause lately it seems the girl of your dreams Is someone that I can't be Oh but I try And oh I cry You want me to change See things your way It's easy to see, I'm losing me One little piece at a time Oh baby I've tried But this is my life Boy you want me to change Baby I'll change, my mind Well I used to believe you knew better than me But now I'm the one in control And I might make mistakes but I'll make 'em my way I won't pay with a piece of my soul You made it clear I had to decide You want me to change See things your way It's easy to see, I'm losing me One little piece at a time Oh baby I've tried But this is my life Boy you want me to change Baby I'll change, my mind

Three sheets on whiskey and quarter jukebox spins Spendin all my money in this dive I been livin in Eight balls, last call before we turn on the lights Another round, or are you doing alright? No I ain't doin' alright I'm going crazy Wanna throw this glass through the wall I can't help thinkin' Who she's with, is it all my fault? I'm a wreck and a mess got nothing left to lose But I lie and say "I'm fine" How bout you? Six weeks since we gave in and called it off Yeah, moving on shouldn't take this long I know, I said We would still be friends But to the hell with it What I really meant is...

I'm a wreck and a mess got nothing left to lose But I lie and say "I'm fine" How bout you? How bout you? Your face, my phone Somewhere bout 3 AM Askin', "How I been?" I'm going crazy Wanna throw this glass through the wall I can't help thinkin' Who she's with, is it all my fault? I'm a wreck and a mess got nothing left to lose But I lie and say "I'm fine" How bout you? Yeah, I just lie and say "I'm fine" How bout you? How bout you?

There's boots like mine On the billboard by the highway, exit 209 All the signs point down to Broadway if you want that shine For a pretty dime then you can buy Boots like mine Ain't the kind my daddy still wears down on the line His old steel town steel toe pair built for overtime And extra miles blue collar style Raise it up, whatever you get high on Here's to leather and laced up nylon Rubber soles under old work benches Caked up treads in the trenches Raise it up, like a lighter in the sky salute To the shoes that paved a hard road through The dust, the mud, the blood The ones who paid the price For boots like mine Boots like mine In the second bedroom down the hall where a mother lies Waiting on a phone call from a satellite On the front lines where her baby wears a different kind Raise it up, whatever you get high on Here's to leather and laced up nylon Rubber soles under old work benches Caked up treads in the trenches Raise it up, like a lighter in the sky salute To the shoes that paved a hard road through The dust, the mud, the blood The ones who paid the price For boots like mine
