Caffeine, small talk
Wait out the plastic weather
Mmhmm, uh huh, discussing current events
Ill take my time
Im not the forward thinker
You read my mind
Better to leave it unsaid
Why cant I leave it unsaid?
You know I talk too much
Honey, come put your lips on mine
And shut me up
We could blame it all on human nature
Stay cool, its just a kiss
Oh, why you gotta be so talkative?
I talk too much, we talk too much
You know my type
Tightrope across the table
Mmhmm, uh huh, I cant keep holding my breath
New wave, no time
Red velvet under pressure
Blah blah, green eyes
I never leave it unsaid
Why cant I leave it unsaid?
You know I talk too much
Honey, come put your lips on mine
And shut me up
We could blame it all on human nature
Stay cool, its just a kiss
Oh, why you gotta be so talkative?
I talk too much, we talk too much
Silence is golden, and youve got my hopes up
We talk too much
No hesitation, what are we waiting for?
We talk too much
You know I talk too much
Honey, come put your lips on mine
And shut me up
We could blame it all on human nature
Stay cool, its just a kiss
Oh, why you gotta be so talkative?
I talk too much, we talk too much |
I watched you board an airplane
A high dive from a summers heat wave, down
A bit tongue and a taste of iron
Sweethearts that high school soured, now
Our time had grown to a closing
You moved when you ran out of money to stay
Your parents house in Ohio
Your old bed replaced with a treadmill, now
Well I come here more than you know
And Im sure you think Ive outgrown you
But I couldnt
Oh, I did it again, I did it again
Oh, I did it again, oh, I must still want you
Our names carved in the pavement
Sealed by whats left of our handprints, now
I told my mom shed love to meet you
But its too bad she wont get the chance to
Oh, I did it again, I did it again
Oh, I did it again, oh, I must still want you
And I might be part to blame
And I might be part to blame
Youre some old mans new trophy
Locked up in some house in New Jersey
Now moneys not a problem
But 20 years it seems youve forgotten
Malibu, |
Walk in like a wrecking ball
The way she move makes you miserable
All eyes on the golden girl
Shes gonna tell ya, gonna tell ya
Gonna tell ya that youre too sweet
Swan dive to the concrete floor
The pavement never felt so warm
One look and you already know
Shes gonna cut ya, gonna cut ya
Gonna cut ya, cut ya real deep
Baby, Im freaking out
Lay it on me
Anything you want
You can crash my car tonight
Go out, wasting all my time and money
I love the way youre breaking my heart
And I cant stand to see you leaving lonely
Ill drive you home at the end of the night
Ill drive you home at the end of the night
Dead last as a drama queen
But I found myself in the front seat of her car
Shes bad blood royalty, but thats fine
Yeah, thats alright with me
Baby, Im freaking out
Lay it on me
Light me up and lay me down
And love me like you shouldnt now
You can crash my car tonight
Go out, wasting all my time and money
I love the way youre breaking my heart
And I cant stand to see you leaving lonely
Ill drive you home at the end of the night
Ill drive you home at the end of the night
You can crash my car tonight
Go out, wasting all my time and money
I love the way youre breaking my heart
And I cant stand to see you leaving lonely
Crash my car, take all my money and run
Baby, if thats what you want
Lonely, lonely
Crash my car, take all my money and run
Baby, if thats what you want
Lonely, lonely |
When you love something, but you had enough
When you hold someone, but youre losing touch
Youre rubbing salt deep in the cut
Oh, I-I-I
Every move you make is apocalypse
And you feel your fate at your fingertips
Oh, this is my last line defense
Oh, I-I-I
Let it all out
Let it all out
Let it all out
Im a thousand miles from my front door
And I cant recall what I came here for
My skin is thick, but I cant take much more
Oh, I-I-I
Let it all out
Let it all out
Let it all out
Oh, let it all out
Let it all out
Yeah, let it all out
Oh, Ive been waitin
For something to change, but
I cant escape this
Waterfall of doubt
All my blood, sweat, and tears
For twenty-some years
All bottled up and broken
Let it all out
Oh, Ive been waitin
For something to change, but
I cant escape this
Waterfall of doubt
All my blood, sweat, and tears
For twenty-some years
All bottled up and broken
Let it all out
Let it all out
Let it all out
Let it all out
Let it all out
Jesus, are you listenin?
If you have a plan, can you fill me in?
Oh, Jesus if youre listening
I-I-I-I |
He was born the fall of 58
Made a fortune selling real estate
Golden lions waited at the gate
He was lonely, but it all looked great
Never made time for the family
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
Only made time for the company
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
He is the richest man in the cemetery
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
Cut from diamonds, but he came from dust
Built a kingdom out of salt and blood
Owned a city, never saw the streets
Or the people that hed never meet
Warm blood, cold heart
Yeah, hes all alone
He had it all, but it couldnt buy love
Yeah, he died alone
Never made time for the family
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
Only made time for the company
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
He is the richest man in the cemetery
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
Never made time for the family
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
Only made time for the company
But he is the richest man in the cemetery
He is the richest man in the cemetery
But he is the richest man in the cemetery |
I know your heart
And I know your downfall
Though we fell apart
It was no ones fault
Ive gotta make you remember
How hard it was to let me go
Slow dancing with a stranger
But I found somebody new
She moves just like you
And she tastes just like you
But its always been you
Oh, its always been you
Yeah, its always been you
Oh, its always been you
Back when we started
I was a fighter
I kept my guard up
But I took it down for you
Oh, what a thing to do
What do you tell your friends?
The ones Ill never see again
What are you filling in their heads?
I found another ex
Some temporary settlement
To kiss the heartbreak off my lips
She moves just like you
And she tastes like you
But its always been you
Oh, its always been you
Oh, its always been you
Yeah, its always been you
Oh, its always been you
Oh, its always been you
Dont let go if you love me
Dont move on, dont move on
Dont let go if you love me
Dont move on, dont move on
Dont move on, dont move on
Dont move on, dont move on |
Take a long drag
As you walk downtown
And as I catch my breath
Youd appear from a cloud of cigarettes
You listen and you disregard
The traffic on the boulevard
Well, I couldn’t spend another night
In your arms
I’m sorry Hannah
But Ive got other plans
So keep on dancing
Into the arms of another man
Hold your head up, Hannah
Hold your head up high
I’m sorry Hannah
How will you know if you never try?
Oh youd break your neck
Trying to let your hair down
And is it worth the risk
Just to crash your car for the sound of it?
Oh you call yourself an indigo
You had it once but let it go
Well, I couldn’t spend another night
In your arms
I’m sorry Hannah
But Ive got other plans
So keep on dancing
Into the arms of another man
Hold your head up, Hannah
Hold your head up high
I’m sorry Hannah
How will you know if you never try?
Tell me that you’re bored to death
In the skyline that you never left
The light in your eyes is flickering
But are you listening?
Are you listening?
Tell me that you’re bored to death
With a skyline that you never left
The light in your eyes is flickering
But are you listening?
Are you listening?
Hold your head up, Hannah
Hold your head up high
I’m sorry Hannah
How will you know if you never try?
How will you know if you never try?
How will you know if you never try? |
Slip back out and step the crowd
With their fists to the ground
Well, the manner never seemed to push you away
Call the television evangelist
Tell them all to grab another arm to twist this time
And if youre thinking that you might commit
You wont unfold what you dont really know
Something tells me that youre never gonna stop til you get what you want
Dont you tell me
That you never even thought
Maybe we could run
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Maybe we could run
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Maybe we could run
Pick a fight, set the house on fire
With bombs in your eyes
Well, the matter never seemed to make you afraid
Hit the ground running, Los Angeles
Find another naive arm to twist tonight
And if youre thinking that youd like to quit
Thats fine, you never wanted it anyway
Something tells me that youre never gonna stop til you get what you want
Dont you tell me
That you never even thought
Maybe we could run
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Maybe we could run
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Maybe we could run
Oh, dont stop, dont stop
Itll never get closer
Run down rooftops
Shoulder to shoulder
Something tells me that youre never gonna stop til you get what you want
Dont you tell me
That you never even thought
Maybe we could run
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Maybe we could run
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Maybe we could run |
Young heart, oh what a waste
Especially for such a pretty face, now
Its too bad in any case
I guess Ill be the one that got away
So go on
Go home
Try your sad style on somebody else
No, no
Stay away with your sad song
I dont wanna be your boyfriend
When you need a little company
I dont wanna be your boyfriend, no
When theres not another phone to ring
Friday night, you call me up
But you got my number wrong
I dont wanna be your boyfriend
Your boyfriend, your boyfriend
No, oh, oh
So cool with a cigarette
Your greatest hits on tape cassette
Brand new Dior jacket on
A cracked screen on your telephone, oh no
So go on
Go home
Try your sad style on somebody else
No, no
Stay away with your sad song
I dont wanna be your boyfriend
When you need a little company
I dont wanna be your boyfriend, no
When theres not another phone to ring
Friday night, you call me up
But you got my number wrong
I dont wanna be your boyfriend
Your boyfriend, your boyfriend
No, oh, oh
No, oh, oh
No, oh, oh
No, oh, oh
You heard it wrong, you heard it wrong
No, oh, oh
No, oh, oh
No, oh, oh
You heard it wrong, you heard it wrong
Im not your boyfriend
When you need a little company
Ah, Im not your boyfriend
When theres not another phone to ring
Friday night, you call me up
But you got my number wrong
I dont wanna be your boyfriend
Your boyfriend, your boyfriend
No, no, no! |
Why dont you calm down?
For crying out loud
Im losing it lately
Im young and Im dumb
Ill live and Ill learn
Yeah, whats the hurry now?
Whats the hurry now?
Black in the eyes
Back in my mind
So saturated
Going to bed
The girl in my head
Yeah, I really feel it now
Yeah, I really feel it now
What a feeling
Oh, what am I feeling?
I cant ever seem to make up my mind
Now, what does that say about me?
Oh, what does that say
I just wanna be alone sometimes
But I keep going out
I keep going out
Wasting my time
Breaking through ice
Talking to strangers
Fall through the floor
Im back at your door
Baby, Im bleeding now
What a feeling
Oh, what am I feeling?
I cant ever seem to make up my mind
Now, what does that say about me?
Oh, what does that say
I just wanna be alone sometimes
But I keep going out
I keep going out
Youll never know
Youll never know
Youll never know
Youll never know
What kind of person I become when youre gone, oh
Youll never know
Youll never know
Youll never know
Youll never know
What kind of person I become when youre gone, oh
Down on my luck
And looking for love
In all the wrong places
Going to bed
The girl in my head
What am I feeling now?
What am I feeling now?
I cant ever seem to make up my mind
Now, what does that say about me?
Oh, what does that say
I just wanna be alone sometimes
But I keep going out
I keep going out
Youll never know
Youll never know
Youll never know
Youll never know
What kind of person I become when youre gone, oh
Youll never know
Youll never know
Youll never know
Youll never know
What kind of person I become when youre gone, oh |
Isnt it obvious
When my sheets are tangled up on the bedroom floor?
Its not that Im bothered by
My kitchen sink cant hold much more
Sleepless lonesome nights
Haunted by due time
Hope is dying for now
Havent you heard?
Atlas folds at the thought
Of what hes just learned
A chain letter trap with one weak link
Maybe we should talk before I speak
Borrowed thoughts from a bitter end
Blame is ours and mine to
Bend it by the fault
Pompeii set us up
Hope is dying for now
Havent you heard?
Atlas folds at the thought
Of what hes just learned
Hope is dying for now
Havent you heard?
Atlas wants a way out
Before it gets worse
Havent you heard?
Havent you heard? |
Crossed, I keep my fingers crossed
But my lips still crack, and my teeth stay locked
And its true, its a kind of mess
Im kind of obsessed, I couldnt be so cruel
And I got a thing for you, now
And it wont go, it wont go
And I think I want you more now
But you dont know, you dont know
The queen of your hometown
You just stepped down, from a mothers dream
Yeah, I guess I feel a little obsolete
We changed a lot since seventeen
We all grow older, still incomplete
But I got a thing for you now
And it wont go, it wont go
And I think I want you more now
But you dont know
Oh, wanna watch you move, oh, wanna watch you move
Oh I go around the world just to cross the street
I wanna watch you move like a time machine
Oh, wanna watch you move, oh, wanna watch you move
Oh I go around the world just to cross the street
I wanna watch you move like a time machine
I got a thing for you now
And it wont go, it wont go
And I think I want you more now
But you dont know, you dont know
Well, I got a thing for you now
It wont go
Well I think I want you more now
But you dont know, you dont know
And I think I want you
And I think I want you
And I think I want you |
I saw you walking
Under a parkway sign with a stranger
Yeah, so unaware of danger
Thats her
Not like the others
A rose-colored dream when shes loving you
With a cartwheel heart never running out of room
Whats another night out?
What’s another night out?
Well, call it what you want
But you go and you go and you go and you go
Take a little time out
Darling, have you had enough?
Well call it what you want
But you go, and you go, and you go, and you go
Heart eyes
Heart eyes
Come home tonight
Come home tonight
Heart eyes
Heart eyes
Come home tonight
Come home tonight
One, two, three
Youre killing me
An American dream
But youre mine
Aw, baby
Hurry over with a heartbreak kiss
I dont really wanna fight like this
Oh not tonight
Whats another night out?
What’s another night out?
Well, call it what you want
But you go and you go and you go and you go
Take a little time out
Darling, have you had enough?
Well call it what you want
But you go, and you go, and you go, and you go
Heart eyes
Heart eyes
Come home tonight
Come home tonight
Heart eyes
Heart eyes
Come home tonight
Come home tonight |
Dragging my feet
I feel like everybodys watching
Watching me cut my teeth
Grabbing my coat
And darling if Im being honest
Honestly, I should go
I let you down
I know it
Ill let you down over and over
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how to dance with you
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how to dance with you
I dont, I dont know
I dont, I dont
Losing my cool
Over some accidental weekend
But honey Ive got nothing to prove
And I know it seems cruel
You never call me on a Monday
Baby its got nothing to do with you, no
I let you down
I know it
Ill let you down over and over
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how to dance with you
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how to dance with you
I dont wanna let you down
I dont wanna let you down
I dont wanna let you down, no
I dont wanna let you down, oh no no no no no
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how to dance with you
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how
I dont wanna dance
I dont know how to dance with you
I dont know how
I dont know how to dance with you
I dont, I dont know
I dont, I dont |
When I talk about the future
Youve got your arms wrapped around my waist
But lets not talk about the future, no
Tonight is just another day
I cant take you serious, Im serious
Its your birthday and youre acting all mysterious
Youre so concerned about your future, yeah
But tomorrows just another day
Dont cry
Dont cry
Alright
Oh, its all gonna be alright
We were summer late-bloomers
Fumbling through our teen age
We used to talk about the future
Remember when we couldnt wait?
I cant take you serious, Im serious
Its your party and youre still in bed, you wont get dressed
I-I-I-I cant take you serious, are you serious?
Dont cry
Dont cry
Alright
Oh, its all gonna be alright
Years go by whether you want them to
Years go by whether you want them to
Years go by whether you want them to
Years go by whether you want them to
Put on your make-up
I laid out your favorite sweater
Its just a number
Darling, dry your eyes
Dont cry
Dont cry
Alright
Oh, its all gonna be alright |
Running from the suburbs
Skipping heartbeats
Living by our own front teeth
Put my faith into a number
And push the odds aside
We swore wed make it out alive
But you lied
An old dream still haunts me
A time machine
I knew you then
Ripped jeans in a playground of cement
I knew you then
Gold rings, but you never could commit
I heard youre living somewhere upstate with a new life
Is that really what you had in mind?
But I dont wanna let go, and watch it all unfold
I couldnt if I even tried, and I tried
You left me stuck sixteen
Without a time machine
I knew you then
Ripped jeans in a playground of cement
I knew you then
Gold rings, but you never could commit
I knew you then, I knew you then
I knew you then, I knew you then
I knew you then
Ripped jeans in a playground of cement
I knew you then
Gold rings, but you never could commit
I knew you then, I knew you then |
Babe, youre taking your time in every way
If you feel the same, well, why would we wait?
Theres words I cant say
But my loves not simple, Im fragile
And you dont even know
No, you dont even know it all
I want it all
Ive got this lovesick feeling
But theres nothing like it, nothing at all
I know your hearts still beating
And I want it all, I want it all
Or nothing at all
Babe, we push and we pull, we give and we take
But weve got a lifetime to kill, a second to waste
Oh, what a shame
But my loves not simple, its fragile
And you dont even know
No, you dont know the half of it
I want it all
Ive got this lovesick feeling
But theres nothing like it, nothing at all
I know your hearts still beating
And I want it all, I want it all
Or nothing at all
So make up your mind
Quit wasting your time
Im losing my mind, mind, mind
All or nothing, all or nothing
All or nothing, all or nothing
And I want it all, I want it all
Or nothing at all
Ive got this lovesick feeling
But theres nothing like it, nothing at all
I know your hearts still beating
And I want it all, I want it all
Or nothing at all, or nothing at all |
Yeah
You ever love something so much it hurts?
You ever love something so much it hurts?
Yeah
You ever love something so much it hurts?
You ever love something so much it hurts?
So you really wanna break my heart
Keep me burning on the back light
I saw you running around thats fine
But its never that simple
Excuse me when youre 74 and gray
But you still wanna waste some time
You kidding me you cant
Flip on a switch all at once
No, its never that simple
Yeah, yeah
Believe me when I say Ive tried
You ever love something so much it hurts?
You ever love something so much it hurts?
Second guessing all for nothing
You ever love something so much it hurts?
You ever love something so much it hurts?
Hey, hey, get away from me
Yeah, Im talking to myself in the mirror half asleep
With freckles like constellations
I just want a new sensation, ah
Excuse me when your tattoos fading away
But you still wanna take your time
Youre kidding me you cant
Flip on a switch all at once
Youre kidding me you cant
Flip on a, flip on a switch
Take your time Ill be around
Take your time Ill be around
Believe me when I say Ive tried
You ever love something so much it hurts?
You ever love something so much it hurts?
Second guessing all for nothing
You ever love something so much it hurts?
You ever love something so much it hurts?
Take your time Ill be around
Take your time Ill be around
Take your time Ill be around
T-t-t-take your time Ill be around
Take your time Ill be around
Take your time Ill be around
Take your time Ill be around
Take your time... |
Ive never held so tight
Feels like the first time that I ever drove alone
Leaving for a holiday, wishin that I couldve stayed
In the comfort of my home
If you want it, I have it
Ill do it, just ask it
Ive never been static
You know
Oh, oh, oh, oh
If you wanted me to stay around
I could, I said
Oh, oh, oh, oh
If you really wanna settle down
I would
A dream from a past life
Free like the first time that we ever talked alone
Tell me and Ill stick around
Settle in a ghost town just to call a place my own
I dont know what to do, I think I might be in love with you
I dont know what to do, I think I might be in love with you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
If you wanted me to stay around
I could, I said
Oh, oh, oh, oh
If you really wanna settle down
I would
Oh, oh, oh, oh
If you want me to stay around
I could, I said
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Im not asking you to settle down
But I would |
Ive been this soft and simple
Youve barely seen my waves
Ive been making circles
Nearly all my days
Its all in magazines
Its in the wet concrete
Somehow, I saw it coming
But now, Im caught between
And I was always running from you
Hiding what you held as the truth
But Im not your holy ghost
When your wrists are bound
Its a deadly sin to give a man that crown
You cant say all hope is lost
When it was never found
Let it settle in, then settle down
Its not some message hidden
Less of a daring fate
A broken stained-glass window
Our eyes still bleed the same
Its all in magazines
Its in the word concrete
Somehow, I saw it coming
But now, Im caught between
And I was always running from you
I was always running from you
But Im not your holy ghost
When your wrists are bound
Its a deadly sin to give a man that crown
You cant say all hope is lost
When it was never found
Let it settle in, then settle down
Im not your savior
Im not your savior
A glimpse of your maker
Im not your savior
Woo ooh ooh, oo
Woo ooh ooh ooh oo
Woo ooh ooh, oo
Woo ooh ooh ooh oo
But Im not your holy ghost
When your wrists are bound
Its a deadly sin to give a man that crown
You cant say all hope is lost
When it was never found
Let it settle in, then settle down
Ooo.... |
Everyone still looks the same
Except you
And the kids are running faster now
But theyre not moving
And how come everyone is in the way
Except you?
And were frozen in the fast lane
Where are we going?
Hey, what can I say?
I keep splitting in two
Hey, what a mistake
Theres no me without you
Everyones in the way
Except you
Problem solved
I guess I get too focused on when I arrive
Careful now
I guess it isnt up for me to decide
If I get some color on my cheeks
Hey, what can I say?
I keep splitting in two
Hey, what a mistake
Oh, theres no me without you
You are the problem
You are the traffic
Oh god, I get so eager that
I lose sight of whats in front of me
All I submit into this season
Why try to fight it?
Hey, what can I say?
I keep splitting in two
Hey, what a mistake
Oh, theres no me without you
You are the problem
You are the traffic |
Im feeling you, can you feel it too?
I want you, was missing you
Now Im wishing, I never knew your name
Drawn out, youre losing me now at your fingertips
Keep me lingering for weeks
Call it heartless attraction, at best
Then of course you come and call out my name
And I watch my heart crawl up your sleeve
Ill let go and loosen my grip from your fingertips
And quietly collapse into the pavement
Im feeling you, can you feel it too?
I want you, was missing you
Now Im wishing, I never knew your name
Im feeling you can you feel it too?
I want you, but I left it all back there, love
Bleach blonde brunette
Reaching for clarity
She accidentally disappears
An impulsive devotion, at best
And of course you come and call out my name
Youre love, love, love dressed up in black
Why dont you let go and loosen your grip from my fingertips
And carefully collapse your entertainment?
Im feeling you, can you feel it too?
I want you, was missing you
Now Im wishing, I never knew your name
Im feeling you can you feel it too?
I want you, but I left it all back there, love
I dont wanna be there, I dont wanna be where you are
I dont wanna be there, I dont wanna be where you are
I dont wanna be there, I dont wanna be where you are
I dont wanna be there, I dont wanna be where you are
Where you are
Where you are
Where you are
Im feeling you, can you feel it too?
I want you, was missing you
Now Im wishing, I never knew your name
Im feeling you can you feel it too?
I want you, but I left it all back there, love
But I left it all back there, love
I left it all back there, love |
Karma killer
You know, oh, oh
You got my attention
I think Im falling apart
Lovesick feeling all alone
A crack in the ceiling
Trace it back to my heart
Its almost dark now
And the citys so loud
Your voice is the only sound
Get out, get out of my head
Out of my head and into my arms
Get out, get out of my head
Out of my head and into my arms
Into my arms
Into my arms
Midnight heaven
Let me go
Talking through fences
Burning bridges and breaking hearts
And yes, Ive been changing
For me and not for you
Smile for the camera
Heres a shot in the dark
Its almost light out
And the citys so loud
Your voice is the only sound
Get out, get out of my head
Out of my head and into my arms
Get out, get out of my head
Out of my head and into my arms
Into my
Into my arms
And so dont walk away, dont walk away
So dont walk away, dont walk away
Get out, get out of my head
Out of my head and into my arms
Get out, get out of my head
Out of my head and into my arms
Into my arms
Into my arms |
Heartless princess
Effortless
You got a touch in your hand
Second guess
I guess Im complex
So thoughtless
It’s what you do to me
Scream until Im blue
Yeah, Im losing my edge
Then she’s air in my chest
What ya got in your hand?
Drag my feet to bed
While youre living your best
Now Im kind of a mess
Its what you do to me
Its what you do to me
You can try to simplify romance
Reduce it to a touch
But maybe were in love
You can try to simplify romance
You could call it odd attraction
Pulling like a magnet
Black and white
Rainbow
Its chemical
What you do to me
Scream until Im blue
Yeah, I’m losing my edge
Then she’s air in my chest
Breathing life in
Drag my feet to bed
While youre living your best
Now I’m kind of a mess
Its what you do to me
Its what you do to me
You can try to simplify romance
Reduce it to a touch
But maybe were in love
You can try to simplify romance
You could call it odd attraction
Pulling like a magnet
S-S-S-Simplify
It’s no mystery
Youre so stuck in my mind
Its what you do to me
Its what you do to me
Its what you do to me
Simplify romance
Look what you do to me
The more we speak the less we say
Just searching for a friendly face
In love with what we wanna hate
In love with what we wanna hate
You can try to simplify romance
Reduce it to a touch
But maybe were in love
You can try to simplify romance
Call it odd attraction
Pulling like a magnet
S-S-S-Simplify
Its no mystery
Youre so stuck in my mind
Its what you do to me
Its what you do to me
Its what you do to me
Simplify romance
Look what you do to me |
You’re disconnected
Staring down at your phone
Some company you are
Across the table
In that unflattering glow
How did you get so far?
Break my back just to make conversation
Pulling teeth just to ask how your day went
You’re disconnected
An inconsiderate mess
Youve got me all to yourself
But are we alone?
Your eyes are staring vacantly
Oh, are you even listening at all?
Theres no one here but you and me
So tell me, would you rather be alone?
Would you rather be alone?
I see you hiding
Behind a flickering screen
What did you come here for?
And then you light up
Whos keeping you company?
Dont wanna dance in the dark
Break my back just to get your attention
Pulling teeth in formidable fashion
Why are you hiding?
An inconsiderate mess
Youve got me all to yourself
But are we alone?
Your eyes are staring vacantly
Oh, are you even listening at all?
Theres no one here but you and me
So tell me, would you rather be alone?
Would you rather be alone?
Would you rather be alone?
Dont lie to me darling
Would you rather be alone?
Its a screen, its a life
Its you, its me
Its everything |
Oh I let you go
At twenty-two years old
I never held you close
An original
Yeah, I told you so
Only four teeth old
Does it ever cross your mind?
Cross your mind?
Does it ever cross your mind?
It happens all the time
I still call your name
But no ones listening
Oh how it couldve been!
Yeah, it broke my heart
But it cut your soul
An everlasting low
You blamed the stars
For aligning wrong
And you cursed a god
You were running from
Does it ever cross your mind?
Cross your mind?
Does it ever cross your mind?
It happens all the time
Back again
Feels the same
Stop the car
Cut the bass and get out of my head again
I dont know
If I feel okay
Park the car
Cut the cord and get out of my head again
I never looked better
Than I do today
Dont come closer
Im falling
It dont matter
Im not concrete anyway
Nothing matters!
Im falling for you
Some things never change
Some things never change |
Baby, youre my baby
Im talking anywhere to see you sideways
Lady, youre my lady
Wonder when you stop
To see how perfect
I, I dont know if I could ever do without you
And I hope to God I wont get the chance to
And I hope to god I wont get the chance to
I dont mind
Time and time again
I dont mind
Time and time again
Baby, youre my baby
And I dont use that term that lightly
Maybe, oh just maybe
You understand what you mean to me
And I, I dont know if I could ever do without you
And I hope to God I dont get the chance to
And I hope to God I dont get the chance to
I dont mind
Time and timе again
I dont mind
Time and time again
I dont mind
Time and timе again
I dont mind
Time and time again
I dont mind
Wont get the chance to
I dont mind
Wont get the chance to |
I never believed in a miracle
But Im watching her by the waterfall
A punch in my teeth when I least expect it
She could never say anything wrong
But she could barely say anything at all
Right?
Its alright
Stone cold feeling
When my words dont reflect my intentions
Stare at the ceiling
Whats going on in her head?
Oh, no
Shes got me feeling undone
And she knows it
Miranda Beach
Alone in the balcony
My two left feet on the mezzanine
A tear in my chest when I least expect it
Ignored so naturally
Yet so unaware accidentally
Right?
Thats alright, yeah
Oh, you’re wasting all of my evening
With eyes just like a television
Oh, baby you make it look easy
Whats going on in her head?
Oh, no
Shes got me feeling undone
And she knows it, yeah
Oh, no
Shes got me feeling undone
And she knows it
Miranda Beach |
What a tragedy
Its a settled score
Like a cavity
A canyon of sorts
It was in my hands
You were in my blood
You had a fighting chance
Fall in and out of my head now and then
Lately, Ive been trying to quit
Oh Oh Oh
What a tragedy
To a heart of gold
And all the company
But youre still alone
Sitting beneath the last supper painting
Your eyes glazed-over at the dinner table
Fall in and out of my head now and then
Lately, Ive been trying to quit
Oh Oh Oh |
Now that youve captured my heart
Im just some criminal
Im your falling star
Now that Im busy
I broke it all down
I miss you coming over, yeah
Every now and then
Swinging for the fences, swinging for the fences
You got me swinging for the fences, swinging for the fences, yeah
I was young and I was ill-prepared
And I was gunning for the rest of my life
Baby, come on, love like you used to
Oh, thats how I want you
Just running on out and sleeping on the couch
If walls could really talk, they’d still be talking now
No one lets me down quite like I do
You want some love
But you need some space and time
Oh baby, whatcha gonna do when the universe puts your hand in mine?
Now that Im busy I broke it all down
I miss you coming over, yeah
Every now and then
You got me swinging for the fences, swinging for the fences
Got me swinging for the fences, swinging for the fences, yeah |
Youre across the room
But we’re miles apart
So I talk to God
And ask him how you are
Reach for your hand
Ask you to dance
I wanna pull you closer
Head on my shoulders
Why am I lonely when Im sleeping right here next to you?
Right next to you?
I keep running, chasing after your heart
I cant live this way, but I can’t live without ya
I keep running, chasing after your heart
Im begging for a change, I cant live this way
I cant live this way, but I cant live without ya
Youre across the room
But were miles apart
So I talk to God
And ask him how you are
Someone calls your name
But its not my voice
Scrolling through your messages, waiting
For someone to pay you attention
Why am I lonely when I’m sleeping right here next to you?
Right next to you?
I keep running, chasing after your heart
I can’t live this way, but I cant live without ya
I keep running, chasing after your heart
I’m begging for a change, I cant live this way
I cant live this way, but I cant live without ya
I cant vision myself
Holding you, holding love
I cant vision myself
Holding you, holding love
I cant vision myself
Holding you, holding love
Holding you
I keep running, chasing after your heart
I cant live this way, but I cant live without ya
I keep running, chasing after your heart
I cant live this way, I cant live this way
But I cant live without ya |
Wake up, lying face up
Im feeling like I found myself
Im feeling like theres something missing
I wanna shape up
Tryin to shake it up, yeah
Maybe Im just bored to tears
Or maybe its in plain sight hidden
What are you waiting for?
Wont you come a little closer?
What a shame to wait here for you
To come a little closer
Why fight the feeling?
Why fight the feeling?
What a shame to wait here for you
To come a little closer
A little closer
Wake up
Im crawling out of my skin
Im feeling like Im more myself
I feel like I want something else
So I cut my hair
And I sleep in my car
Yeah, I just want some peace of mind
But just a little of your time, yeah
What are you waiting for?
Wont you come a little closer?
What a shame to wait here for you
To come a little closer
Why fight the feeling?
Why fight the feeling?
What a shame to wait here for you
To come a little closer
A little closer
My love is on your chest
Dont lie, dont lie
With roses in my head
Dont lie, dont lie
Theres nobody else in my head
Youre a real piece of work
Youre a real piece of work
Youre a real piece of work
Youre a real piece of work
What are you waiting for?
Wont you come a little closer?
What a shame to wait here for you
To come a little closer
Why fight the feeling?
Why fight the feeling?
What a shame to wait here for you
To come a little closer
A little closer

Nobody |
You were all I needed
For a second, you were all I needed
All I needed
Be honest with me
Do you, do you, do you wanna be honest with me right now?
I swear to God it meant nothing
But who am I-I kidding?
I want you right back in my arms
Right back in my arms
You were all I needed
For a second, you were all I needed
All I needed
The house is too quiet
So I sleep in my car
Im losing my magic
I hear your voice in my head, I think that Im working too hard
But who, who am I-I kidding?
I want you right back in my arms
Right back in my arms
You were all I needed
For a second, you were all I needed
All I needed
All I needed
All I needed
All I needed
All I needed
All I needed
All I needed
All I needed
All I needed
You were all I needed
For a second, you were all I needed |
Am I too much to handle?
Is it all in my head?
In time comes an answer
Ill sleep here instead
I only really want the truth
A little more than I want you
Whatcha say? Whatcha say?
It could always get better, if we tried
Whats it matter, when it feels right?
I broke all of my habits
To mirror your magic
Somehow youve resisted
So casually committed
I only really want the truth
A little more than I want you
Whatcha say? Whatcha say?
It could always get better, if we tried
Whats it matter, when it feels right?
I only really want the truth
A little more than I want you
Whatcha say?
Whatcha say, whatcha say?
It could always get better, if we tried
Whats it matter, when it feels right? |
I watched you board an airplane
A high dive from the summers heat wave, down
A bit tongue and a taste of iron
Sweethearts that high school soured now
Our time had grown to a closing
You moved when you ran out of money, stay
Your parents house in Ohio
Your old bed replaced with a treadmill, now
Well I come here more than you know
And Im sure you think Ive outgrown you
But I couldnt
Oh, I did it again, I did it again
Oh, I did it again
Oh, I must still want you
Our names carved in the pavement
Sealed by whats left of our hand prints now
I told my mom shed love to meet you
But its too bad she wont get the chance to
Oh, I did it again, I know I did it again
Oh, I did it again
I must still want you
And I might be part to blame
And I might be part to blame
Youre some old mans new trophy
Locked up in some house in New Jersey
Now moneys not a problem
But twenty years it seems youve forgotten
Malibu, ninety-two |
I dont know where I went wrong
Is it fate or just bad luck?
We’re tangled up like crawling vines
I’m back here for the hundredth time
I can wait for you
If you want me to
Oh oh, oh oh
Its a trap, my dear
Its a trap, my dear
Creep out for a midnight drag
You said you quit, this one’s the last
Well maybe I take it all for granted
You only need me when you’re empty handed
All the wasted youth
Tell the bitter truth
Oh oh, oh oh
Its a trap, my dear
Its a trap, my dear
Its a trap, my dear
Its a trap, my dear
You werent always
Eager to follow
I can wait for you
If you want me to
Its a trap, my dear
Its a trap, my dear
Its a trap, my dear
Its a trap, my dear |
Stumble on my words
A feeling Id forgotten
Sleep until it hurts
And tell me if youre honest
I know you dont have a reason to
Speak up and thats alright
Id share my coat if youre freezing
But if not, at least I tried
Gardens in the snow
An overgrown disaster
Learn the saxophone
Im scared youre moving backwards
I know you dont have a reason to
Speak up and thats alright
Id share my coat if youre freezing
But if not, at least I tried
I know you hear me, Im speaking
Can you hear me now?
I know you hear me, Im screaming
Can you hear me now?
It rests upon my chest
I did my very best
Didnt I?
Didnt I?
Didnt I ?
I know you dont have a reason to
Speak up and thats alright
Id share my coat if youre freezing
But if not, at least I tried
I know you hear me, Im speaking
Can you hear me now?
I know you hear me, Im screaming
Can you hear me now? |
Baby girl
Oh why you wanna go and rock my world
Sometimes I dont think that you understand
Just what youre doing to me
Baby girl
Somehow you make me go and eat my words
And fall right back into your fragile hands
Why you do this to me?
Not again
Sooner or later
Ill do you a favor
And we can work it all out
Tell me youre sorry
Ill throw you a party
And I, Ill sort it all out
So, just call
Just call
And Im sorting it out
Just call
Its the little things
Just call
And Im sorting it out
Baby girl
Sometimes I dont think that you understand
Im standing under you
Baby girl
Go and cut your slice of humble pie
Ill be around, but
If you call and Im nowhere to be found
Just lean on my shoulder
Sooner or later
Ill do you a favor
And we can work it all out
Tell me youre sorry
Ill throw you a party
And I, Ill sort it all out
Just call
Just call
And Im sorting it out
Just call
Its the little things
Just call
And Im sorting it out |
Sunrise in orbit
I still can’t tell the truth
Why do I play the fool when
Your eyes were never blue
But as the time rolls by
I will be on your side
Oh and the heart don’t lie
I’ve been gone for so long
I don’t remember why
Don’t lose me again
Oh I-I’m coming home
I’m coming home
I wanna see you again
I don’t know where to go
So I’m coming home
I’m coming home
I just wanna start again
Start again
Oh, I’m just out of touch
And I’ve just about had enough
Sunrise in harlem
There’s no pudding
But here’s the proof
But as the time goes by
I will be on your side
Don’t lose me again
Oh I-I’m coming home
I’m coming home
I wanna see you again
I don’t know where to go
So I’m coming home
I’m coming home
I just wanna start again
Start again
Oh, I’m just out of touch
And I’ve just about had enough
I just wanna start again
Start again
Oh, I’m just out of touch
And I’ve just about had enough |
Oh, call it what you want
But Ive seen this all before
One moment here to stay
And the next youre out the door
Im not bitter
I wont question
Just dont wake me when you leave
Oh, Ill be waiting
Oh, oh its alright
Im alright
Im okay
Ill, Ill give it time
Ill be fine
Ill just wait
Oh you bait it then you twist it
Then you hook me when I bleed
But now you caught me
But you dont want me
So you throw me right back in
Just to catch me again
Oh, Ill be waiting
Here
Oh, oh its alright
Im alright
Im okay
Ill, Ill give it time
Ill be fine
Ill just wait
Oh, oh its alright
Im alright
Im okay
Ill, Ill give it time
Ill be fine
Ill just wait |
I do it for myself
Im dancin for no one else
I do it for myself, baby
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
Turn the lights down, baby
And turn it up to something we know
Never felt so crazy, havent slept in days
Im burnin up, breakin through the floor
When I find myself actin up
When I find myself, all out of touch
Sick of love songs, baby
Pushin up daisies
And Ive just about, had enough
I do it for myself
Im dancin for no one else
I do it for myself, baby
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
I do it for myself, baby
Im dancin for no one else
I do it for myself, baby
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
I never felt so proud
Im walkin upside down
Through talkin televisions, the swimmin to superstitions
And slowly submittin to the sound
I dont wanna be the one to look that way
I dont wanna be the one to help you figure it out
And I find myself actin up, so tell me
Is it a crime, to care for myself?
I do it for myself, baby
Im dancin for no one else
I do it for myself, baby
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
I do it for myself
(Once you start it, you cant stop it
Once you start it, you cant stop it)
I do it for myself
(Once you start it, you cant stop it
Once you start it, you cant stop it)
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
I do it for myself
I do it for myself, baby
Im dancin for no one else
I do it for myself, baby
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
I do it for myself
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah |
Who knows where youve been
Why you feel different?
Who knows where youve been
Why you feel different?
Who knows where youve been
Why you feel different?
To the ones you love the most
Yeah, they miss you all the time
I wanna be here, I wanna love here
I wanna be here, I wanna see here
I wanna be here, I wanna be here, I wanna be here, I wanna be |
Dont meet your heroes
If you do, theyll only let you down
Just another zero
Another fortunate face in the crowd
I keep looking for the common thread
A needle in the eye of a hurricane
I keep waiting for the sun to set
Lemons in the lemonade
The universe wont wait for
Broken hearts and shooting stars
And I keep running in circles
And I cant make it stop
Oh life gets heavy
When youre speeding in a car
And the brakes cut out
I keep running in circles
And I cant make it stop
Make it stop
Time in a bottle
Watch it go likе a grain of sand
Life in a bubble
Watch it float right through your hands
I keep looking back on brighter days
Mеmory bought by a photograph
Who do I become when my youth fades away?
And I just wanna go home again
The universe wont wait for
Broken hearts and shooting stars
And I keep running in circles
And I cant make it stop
Oh life gets heavy
When youre speeding in a car
And the brakes cut out
I keep running in circles
And I cant make it stop
Make it stop
Make the world stop turning
Make the fire stop burning
Just when you thought you had enough
Youre back at the beginning of it
Make the world stop turning
Make the money stop adding up
I keep running in circles
And I cant make it stop
Make the world stop turning
Make the fire stop burning
Just when you thought you had enough
Youre back at the beginning of it
Make the world stop turning
Make the money stop adding up
I keep running in circles
And I cant make it stop |
I think I’m sad
Wait I’m doing fine
I think I’m broken
Next thing I feel alright
Maybe I’m bad
Just bad at what I do
In the morning I’ll wake up
I’m the best I ever knew
It’s exhausting being me
All these roots without a tree
I’m a sinner
I’m a sermon
I’m a steady-handed surgeon
I don’t understand, why
Every time I find myself
I find myself wanting something else
And I wander off to something new
But how come every time I turn around
I’m never turned around on
You
I can’t hold a grudge
For more than a day or two
But that time my roommate kicked me out
I still can’t talk it through
How do you do it?
Love me when it hurts
And every time I fly away
You pull me back to earth
I bet it’s exhausting holding me
All these roots without a tree
I’m a phony
I’m a fighter
I’m a figure skating idol
And I don’t understand, why
Every time I find myself
I find myself wanting something else
And I wander off to something new
But how come every time I turn around
I hear the same familiar sound
How come every time I turn around
I’m never turned around on
You |
Everybody hurts like me and you
Everybodys got something we dont do
And of course it comes at the worst time
And of course it comes on a bad night
But everybody hurts like me and you
I feel alive
And its okay
Yeah were okay
When the lights go out
And your blood is pumping
Theres a power to be found
I feel alive
I feel alive
Ive seen different colors bleed the same blood
And every different lover need the same love
Like honey, please dont go, no!
Or just one more hallelujah
Everybody works like me and you
I feel alive
And its okay
Yeah were okay
When the lights go out
And your blood is pumping
Theres a power to be found
I feel alive
And its okay
Yeah were okay
I feel alive
And your blood is pumping
Theres a power to be found
Far and wide
Sunset fear
Morning comes
And never looked so clear
I feel alive
And its okay
Yeah were okay
I feel alive
I feel alive
I feel alive |
Earth to God
Is there anyone out there listening?
Earth to God
Is there something that I’m missing?
Earth to God
Is this message transmitting?
Earth to God
Round and round we’re spinning and
We’re all staring
Down the barrel of a gun
Downward falling
And dismantling a bomb
And all the while in pouring rain
Circumstances and seasons change
Maybe you’re working another case
Or we’re just floating in space
Earth to God
Earth to God
It’s been a while since we’ve talked
Earth to God
I’d break the ice but it’s all thawed
Oh God
It’s your party
And you’re locked inside your room
We’re all just waiting for you to come through
We’re all staring
Down the barrel of a gun
Downward falling
And dismantling a bomb
And all the while in pouring rain
Circumstances and seasons change
Maybe you’re working another case
Or we’re just floating in space
Earth to God |
Slow to move and
Quick to go
I kept you in my cabinet
I drew you up like gold
I fight it til I quit it
And I drink it til you dried
But I want it when I need it
And I need you all the time
I see your ghost around
From time to time
A silhouette of your figure
On my dresser at night
All over and over
I took more than I told you
Yeah I did it, I admit it
All along
Oh honey I still want you
Now more than I ever did
I always will
Oh honey I still want you around
Like I always did
I always will
I thought I understood
Thinking back to when we met
But youre not hiding around the corner
I know, but I still check
Older and older
Its not that Ive outgrown you
No I did it, I admit it
Now youre gone
Oh honey I still want you
Now more than I ever did
I always will
Oh honey I still want you around
Like I always did
I always will
Oh honey I still want you
Now more than I ever did
I always will
Honey I still want you around
Like I always did
I always will
Oh honey I still want you
Now more than I ever did
I always will
Oh honey I still want you around
Like I always did
I always will |
Oh, tell me if its real
Oh, tell me if it’s real
Oh, tell me if its real
Oh, tell me if its real
Oh, tell me if it’s real
Oh, tell me if its real
Oh, tell me if its real
Oh, tell me if its real
Rearrange me |
No ones brother, no ones son
I dont know what Ive become
Red safety world, everyones own
I wanna be a confetti gun
Do you know how it feels?
To be me, young and dumb
To be all alone, twenty-one
To be all around the sun
They say its all been done
You dont know how it feels
Meet me halfway down in the street at dark
Bite your tongue while my heart drops
Rosalio Park, six feet apart
Im trying to love you
You dont know how it feels
Like your blood, I only run
To parties if no one will come
Spoiler alert, the seasons done
What a mess
You dont know how it feels
To be young and dumb
To be all alone, twenty-one
To be all around the sun
They say its all been done
You dont know how it feels
Meet me halfway down in the street at dark
Bite your tongue while my heart drops
Rosalio Park, six feet apart
Im trying to love you
You dont know how it feels
You don’t know
You don’t know
How do you break my heart
Six feet apart
Oh, it’s hard to love you
You don’t know
You don’t know
You don’t know
You don’t know |
If I never heard you say those words
Then I wonder if
You would ever tell the truth
If I know you
You’re talking about me
If I know you
You’re talking right through me
If I never heard you say those words
Then I wonder if
You would ever tell the truth
I bet you’re feeling lonely lonely
I bet you wanna hold me hold me
I bet you’re feeling lonely lonely
I bet you do
I bet you do
If I never looked you in the eyes
I’d realize that none of it was ever true
I was fixed on you
Too locked in to try and make a break
How could I believe you
When I could never read you
Anyway
I bet you’re feeling lonely lonely
I bet you wanna hold me hold me
I bet you’re feeling lonely lonely
I bet you do
I bet you do
Should call you hypnotica
Hypnotic girl
God knows I couldn’t read your mind
Should call you hypnotica
Hypnotic girl
Hypnotica
I bet you’re feeling lonely lonely
I bet you wanna hold me hold me
I bet you’re feeling lonely lonely
I bet you do
I bet you do
Should call you hypnotica
Hypnotic girl
God knows I couldn’t read your mind
Should call you hypnotica
Hypnotic girl
Hypnotica
Should call you hypnotica
Hypnotic girl
God knows I couldn’t read your mind
Should call you hypnotica
Hypnotic girl
Hypnotica |
Far away but I still love you
I care to see you holding on
But I don’t know if it’s right for us
To keep these two hearts
Glued together
I’m giving it time
I’m giving it time to settle
I’m living the life
Not sure if it’s worse or better
So I’ll try I’ll try
To break your heart
In the nick of time
I’ll forge I’ll fight
But I fall short every time
I do
With your eyes out the window
When your head hits the pillow
Who’s on your mind
Right at that time
Am I even in the game?
Is it anybody’s race?
When your head hits the pillow
But Im stuck in the middle
Far away but I still love you
I care to see you holding on
But I don’t know if it’s right for us
To keep these two hearts
Glued together
I don’t wanna fall asleep
If you can’t wake up next to me
I don’t know if it’s right for us
To keep these two hearts
Glued together
I’m giving it time
I’m giving it time to settle
I’m living the life
Not sure if it’s worse or better
I-I wanna make it work
Wanna make it work
Wanna make it
Wanna make it work
Wanna make it work
I’m giving it time
I’m giving it time to settle
I’m living the life
Not sure if it’s worse or better |
I built a dream house
On a fault line
With a swing set
In the front yard
Well I tried
Im not an animal I’ve got pride
And Ive got some terrible peace of mind
Im not a sentimental kind of type
But I felt it all when she cried
I said, I don’t care anymore
But, oh its weighing me down
Oh Im closing the door
But
What happened to the dream house, dream house
I dont even know anymore
Oh I thought we were falling
Baby we werе all in
Never thought wed bе revolving doors
So I took some predictable chords
And I wrote you a song
Maybe were doing some household chores
And you whistle right along
Oh Im closing the door
But
What happened to the dream house, dream house
I dont even know anymore
I thought we were falling
Baby we were all in
Never thought we’d be revolving doors
All this time
And I’ve got nothing to lose
What happened to the dream house, dream house
I dont even know anymore, know anymore
What happened to the dream house, dream house
I don’t even know anymore
Oh I thought we were falling
Baby we were all in
Never thought wed be revolving doors
All this time
And Ive got nothing to lose
What happened to the dream house, dream house
I dont even know anymore, know anymore |
All you want to do is break my heart
But I will never let you try so hard
In for the killing youve set your mind
Well never settle nothing til your weapons down
Close to the edge
I can feel it now
The only way out
Is the only way down
I fell so hard
I was looking for you
Oh you couldve stopped me
But you liked the view
I looked for your heart
I couldnt find you nowhere
I shouldve known from the start
You were nothing but trouble
Oh no
Youre pulling me right back in
Dont lie to me
Dont break my heart again
So let me know
If you love me or you dont
Cause either way
Youre the truth I want
T-t-took your sweet time
And played your games
Round and round
And back again
T-t-twisted til you take it
And you turn it around
Bend it til you break it
Then let go of my arm
I looked for your heart
I couldnt find you nowhere
I shouldve known from the start
You were nothing but trouble
Oh no
Youre pulling me right back in
Dont lie to me
Dont break my heart again
So let me know
If you love me or you dont
Cause either way
Youre the truth I want
All these times wed bicker and fight
But it never made much sense
But here we are again
All these times wed bicker and fight
But it never made much sense
But here we are again
And again and again and again
All these times wed bicker and fight
But it never made much sense
Now here we are again
Here we are again
Here we are again
Oh no
Youre pulling me right back in
Dont lie to me
Dont break my heart again |
Back again
Feels the same
Stop the car
Cut the bass and get out of my head again
I dont know
If I feel okay
Park the car
Cut the cord and get out of my head again
I never looked better
Than I do today
Dont come closer
Im falling
It dont matter
Im not concrete anyway
Nothing matters!
Im falling for you
Some things never change
Some things never change |
Slow it on down
Bring it on back to me
Make you my love
And Ill keep you company
Pick it up
Never, never, never, never seen a mouth like yours
Never, never seen a face like that Im sure
Send it on down, send it on down to me
Send it on down, send it on down to me
Oh, Im on to you
Oh, youre on to me too
Spill my drink cause Im nervous when Im talking to you
Start to stutter and I wonder if I have an excuse
And in my head Im thinking
Send it on down, send it on down to me
Send it on down, send it on down to me
Oh, Im on to you
Oh, youre on to me too
Oh, Im on to you
Oh, youre on to me too
Oh, Im on to you
Oh, youre on to me too
Oh, Im on to you
Oh, youre on to me too |
My fault, its all my fault
Its all your fault
I drew you up
Its all awash
Im not
The tip of the ice
The top of the line
The spark to the flame
The all-seeing eye
I try to draw you
Im bothered by a life lived without you
If only Id known I never had you at all
Id be a fool
I fought
Brick by brick
And board by board
I built you up
To more than youre worth
I try to draw you
Im bothered by a life lived without you
If only Id know I never had you at all
Id be a fool, oh
I try to draw you
Im bothered by a life lived without you
Only to find out I never had you at all
Im a fool, oh |
Tell me all about your dreams
What you want and what youre thinkin bout
On the couch in your parents basement
I think were alone so you dont have to fake it
Show me your face
The side nobody knows
Tell me your name
The one you want to be called
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Whats it like to be popular
The secret handshakes and school colors
And youre cracking all your eggshells
Well dont stop now you wont forgive yourself
Tiptoe around what you dont want to tell
No need to speak
Oh your face says it all
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Tiptoe around it
Its here if you want it
Oh, its here if you want it |
I will wait
I will, I will wait for you
If youd act your age
Then I wouldnt play the fool
I know, I know
But its hard to tell
I cant look down when I already fell
Oh no, oh no
I jumped right in
I did it again, oh I did it again
Oh, whats it feel like?
Oh, when is it enough?
Oh, its been a long time
Oh
Ive been trying
Ive been trying to make some room
Oh, your old names money
Your dad is silver spoon
I know, I know
I cant pretend when the Malibu suns
Gone straight to your hair
Oh no, oh no
I jump back in
I did it again, oh I did it again
Oh, whats it feel like?
Oh, when is it enough?
Oh, its been a long time
Oh
Oh, whats it feel like?
Oh, when is it enough?
Oh, its been a long time coming
Oh |
I watched you board an airplane
A high dive from the summers heat wave, down
A bit tongue and a taste of iron
Sweethearts that high school soured, now
Our turn to go into a closing
You moved when you ran out of money, stay
Your parents house in Ohio
Your old bed replaced with a treadmill, now
Well I come here more than you know
And Im sure you think Ive outgrown you
But I couldnt
Ohh, I did it again, I did it again
Ohh, I did it again, I did it again
Oh, I must still want you
Our names carved in the pavement
Sealed by whats left of our handprints now
I told my mom shed love to meet you
But its too bad she wont get the chance to
Oh, I did it again, I know I did it again, no
Oh, I did it again
I must still want you
And I might be part to blame
And I might be part to blame
Youre some old mans new trophy
Locked up in some house in New Jersey
Now moneys not a problem
But 20 years it seems youve forgotten
Malibu |
I do it for myself
Im dancin for no one else
I do it for myself, baby
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
Turn the lights down, baby
And turn it up to something we know
Never felt so crazy, havent slept in days
Im burnin up, breakin through the floor
When I find myself actin up
When I find myself, all out of touch
Sick of love songs, baby
Pushin up daisies
And Ive just about, had enough
I do it for myself
Im dancin for no one else
I do it for myself, baby
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
Is it a crime, to care for myself?
I dont wanna be the one to help
I never felt so proud
Im walkin upside down
Through talkin televisions, the swimmin to superstitions
And slowly submittin to the sound, sound, sound
I dont wanna be the one to look that way
I dont wanna be the one to help you figure it out
And I find myself actin up, so tell me
Is it a crime, to care for myself?
I do it for myself, baby
Im dancin for no one else
I do it for myself, baby
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
Is it a crime, to care for myself?
I dont wanna be the one to help
I do it for myself, baby
Im dancin for no one else
I do it for myself, baby
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah, ah
I do it for myself |
