Vanessa Carlton

Vanessa Lee Carlton (born August 16, 1980) is an American singer-songwriter and musician. Upon completion of her education at the School of American Ballet, Carlton chose to pursue singing instead, performing in New York bars and clubs while attending university.

Her debut single, "A Thousand Miles", reached the top five on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2002. Her debut album, Be Not Nobody, followed and received platinum certification in the United States.

On the outside, you're alive
On the inside, you are crawling
A lifetime of planning
Can be cancelled in a moment

Now my home is breaking
Ground is crumbling underneath
Can't carry on this way

I release you
And call this love
Cannot fix my quiet one
I know you don't really mean it
I know you don't really mean it

I have a hammer and a nail
For an ocean of despair
I am useless here
And it feels so unfair

Wondering what I was missing
Was I writing you in
Were you my invention?

I release you
And call this love
I cannot fix my quiet one
I know you don't really mean it
I know you don't really mean it

Secrets will kill us
We're dying in the dark
My love can let you go
It wasn't made to hold you down
It wasn't made to hold you down

I release you
I call this love
I release you
And I call this love

I know you don't really mean it (I know you don't really mean it)
I know you don't
I know you don't really mean it (I know you don't really mean it)
I know you don't really mean it
