Stranger 04:33
Back seats and sunsets Dirt in my hair and a sundress And your guitar's playin' sweet tunes And I'm singin' along right next to you Campfires and the bright moon Neither can shine the way that you do And I'm crazy This is all in my head 'Cause the truth is it hasn't happened yet 'Cause it's dangerous falling in love with a stranger 'Cause it's dangerous falling in love with a stranger Tossing at midnight Feels like I knew you in another life A parallel universe where these aren't just random lines And a song my heart keeps telling me I have to write And I don't know why 'Cause it's dangerous falling in love with a stranger 'Cause it's dangerous falling in love with a stranger Why do I do this to myself? Why do I do this to myself? Why do I do this to myself? Why do I do this to myself? Why do I do this to myself? Why do I do this to myself? 'Cause it's dangerous falling in love with a stranger

Poison 03:25
You have a way of getting in my head And I don't wanna come on too strong But there's something in the way you talk In the way you smile That's been haunting me since I've been gone And the timing, ohhh, couldn't be more wrong And I've tried to ignore it Tried to push it away with a song So I'll hide behind lyrics And short conversation I'm scared to admit that I've got a fixation on you I don't know how to read you Do you feel the same? 'Cause I feel kind of crazy for feeling this way Oh it's true But I'm no good And I don't want to poison you I'm no good And I don't want to poison you

There's a girl waiting to be noticed by you She's got flowers in her hair and she is quiet And she thinks you see right through... her But she has made you laugh More times than you can count And she has always been the friend you need When you are feeling down And you think she's really pretty But you can't figure her out There's no way she likes you too Forget about it There's a boy He dreams of you at night And he doesn't know he's the one who's on your mind He acts so normal every time you come around There must be nothing there So you never tell him how You think he shines And when you're next to him you almost fall apart You just wanna hold his hand And you start to feel your heart Because it's racing... his is too But you're not close enough to feel it You bite your lip before you lose it You wanna scream "I love you and you're everything I need to get me through this fucked up life" But you think he'll never see you He's staring at the ground 'Cause he can't look you in the eye He's scared you're gonna see right through him But you think he looks tired So you go to say "goodnight" But you really wanna stay And he won't put up a fight He doesn't know you feel that way Forget about it They were sitting on a park bench She said "I really think I gotta tell you something but I don't want you to run, but I think that you're the one. I've been staying up all night 'cause I got you on my mind and I didn't wanna tell you 'cause you seem like you're fine with just being my friend, but I just can't pretend, 'cause when you look at me like that I swear it's all I can take... been tryin' to forget about it but I can't fake it anymore... you're the one that I've been waiting for." She looked at him with sad eyes... Thought she knew what he would say But he took her by the hand Said "I've been waiting for this day"

You've haunted me long enough It's time to tell the truth I don't think I'm strong enough To stay away from you We twist and we turn And we kiss and we burn We don't know where to start So we love in the dark 'til the day It's never been clear We both hide behind fear So I drink way too much 'Til I finally know what to say But I'm not lying when I tell you you're the only one I know I've made mistakes And denying how we feel is not good for anyone And I've never felt this way It's always been you It's always been you It's always been... We're always warned not to fall in love Well I think that it's too late 'Cause the thoughts in my mind Are of you all the time And I can't turn it off And I know that you're feeling the same And I've been so confused Trying to figure out you It's been hurting a lot So that's why I've been acting this way But I'm not lying when I tell you you're the only one I know I've made mistakes But denying how we feel is not good for anyone And I've never felt this way It's always been you It's always been you It's always been you It's always been you it's always been...

about

"So Dramatic" is the culmination of work between friends, twitch.tv streamers, and their wonderful supporters from all over the world. The EP is Elvie's music (twitch.tv/Elvie) captured as her supporters helped to rebuild a flooded recording studio in central Texas.

"So Dramatic" brought together studio owner Jake Wallace (twitch.tv/JakeMartins) and guitarist Joshua Shaughnessy (twitch.tv/RockinJosh) to record Elvie's debut collection of four songs.

Personal... emotional... and so dramatic.
