I'm so glad that your lipstick's on backseat of your best friend's car
Well, we were onto something here
Oh no wait, you will call it off and space is on the cards and
Who'd drink to that? I won't drink to that
Oh over hill, will you teach me the games that you play so well?
And I'll drink to that, who'll drink to that?
You've made your bed, so sleep in it
But never call me again
You've made your bed, so sleep with him
But know I'm the best you'll get
I wrote this song so you would know why I look up to everyone
Can't blame a girl for trying even though she keeps on lying more, more
Here's a list of the things you said and I won't get over it
You want to know, you want to know
And the games that girls will play makes me move away
So I can train, train myself to trust again
Oh over hill, will you teach me the games you play so well?
And I'll drink to that, will you drink to that?
You've made your bed, so sleep in it
But never call me again
You've made your bed, so sleep with him
But know I'm the best you'll get
I wrote this song so you would know why I look up to everyone
Can't blame a girl for trying even though she keeps on lying more, more
Are you on or off?
Are you on or?
Are you on or off?
Are you on or?
I wrote this song so you would know why I look up to everyone
Can't blame a girl for trying even though she keeps on lying more, more
These words will convince you to never love me again
You want to be friends but I won't do it
These words will convince you to never sleep with me again
Where did we go so wrong
That we couldn't see
that we lost control
over everything?
It's personal
She gets involved
We've got these faces
They're painted
So you can't ever sell
Trophy eyes
You've now been mine
For longer than I'd like
You shine so bright
Behind those lies
And I need you more this time
And I am on my own
But not for long
I keep my friends so close
And you even closer
So wrong to say
That I feel this way
But I'm a man of my word
And my words will never change
Trophy eyes
You've now been mine
For longer than I'd like
You shine so bright
Behind those lies
And I need you more this time
Trophy eyes
You've now been mine
For longer than I'd like
You shine so bright
Behind those lies
And I need you more this time
When I was younger, I always thought
I could be someone if I tried enough
When I was younger, my father said
Wear a smile, show respect
When I was younger, you never said
When I was older, I'd feel helpless
When I was younger, you shone the light
And now that I'm older, it doesn't shine bright
When I was younger, you always said
That as I got older, you'd always be there
I'm singin' ooohhh, I'm singin' ooohhh
I'm singin' ooohhh, I'm singin' ooohhh
When I was younger, I used to care
About everything that my father said
When I was younger, you even told me
Just show evil, the upmost respect
When I was younger, I never thought
That when I was older, I'd see you give up
Now that I'm older, I carry the torch
Just promise you'll stand, you'll be strong
I'm singin' ooohhh, I'm singin' ooohhh
I'm singin' ooohhh, I'm singin' ooohhh
I'm singin' ooohhh, I'm singin' ooohhh
I'm singin' ooohhh, I'm singin' ooohhh
When I was younger, I never thought
When I was younger, I never thought
When I was older, I'd fight your wars
When I was older, I'd fight your wars
I'd do it for you, I'd do it for you
I'd do it for you, I'd do it for you
When I was younger, I only dreamed
That when I got older, you'd be proud of me
When I was younger, I promised you both
And I know some things you don't
It comes and goes like the strength in your bones, whoa
So keep your mind at a rest
I'll never let the two of us be friends, does it hurt?
Underdog, just look at the mess you've made
It's such a shame, a shame, we had to find out this way
You must have the must have
Moment in your hands and it's sad
Take a bet, this season, I'm gonna change
Just not face to face, it ain't broke, so don't fix it
Underdog, just look at the mess you've made
It's such a shame, a shame, we had to find out this way
Revenge loves company, three makes it a crowd
So watch your mouth, sit this one out
And I'm down, down but definitely not out
Yeah, why did you call me again?
I bet, I bet we don't make it
'Cause, I never say goodbye
To my friends in very high places
They're only making bets with themselves, selves
They're very, very selfish
Well, keep your mind in the air
Underdog, just look at the mess you've made
It's such a shame, a shame, we had to find out this way
Revenge loves company, three makes it a crowd
I gotta get this off of my chest
I'm startin' to feel a little unrest
Oh every time I check my shoulder
I see you there with a clueless look on your face
I've got to question your intentions
Your playing this one by the book
Whichever version you're preaching from
I've sung it once before
I know, I know you well enough
And if I looked hard, if I looked hard enough
I know, I know you well enough
And if I looked hard, if I looked hard enough
If you were so honest,
Why do you break every promise?
With everything that you say,
I take a pinch of whatever's around me
You don't like the size of us now
We've grown a lot since Hold Me Down
I can't help but think
You're the only thing in front of me
I know, I know you well enough
And if I looked hard, if I looked hard enough
I know, I know you well enough
And if I looked hard, if I looked hard enough
You put a price on everything
You even tried to put one on me
I give my all for your benefit
I'm sick of this shit
It's not your fault you always claim
You always cease to take the blame
I love you all for everything that you do
But I'm sick and tired of the f*cking abuse
I'm sick of this shit
Yeah we are
Talking about
Plastic girls,
With egotistic guys
Oh yeah talking about
It looks void
Oh how we lie
So you can
Brace yourself that
Oh this is...
(This is just a waste of time!)
And tongue and cheek
I'm naive
Can't you please
Stay with me
Breath in, breath out
Well let's do something different
Breath in, breath out
(Can you taste it yet? Can you taste it yet?)
Breath in, breath out
Well let's do something different
Breath in, breath out
(Can you taste it yet? Can you taste it yet?)
What do you think of me? Yeah!
Nothing to you anymore
Here's some words
Write down
To give to you so you know what you've lost
Tongue and cheek
I'm naive
(I'm naive)
Can't you please
(Please)
Stay with me
Breath in, breath out
Well let's do something different
Breath in, breath out
Breath in, breath out
(I've got your courage...)
Let's do something different
(I've got your courage... Just the same song)
Breath in, breath out
On and on
It's just the same old song we're singing
On and on, just the same
On and on
It's just the same old song we're singing
On and on, just the same
On and on
It's just the same old song we're singing
On and on, just the same
On and on
It's just the same old song we're singing
On and on
(On and on)
Come a little closer
As this night gets older
Of you I grow fonder
Just let my hands wander
This is the first thing I thought
This is the last thing that I I want
You were the first one I loved
You were the first love I lost
You left it too late
To change the way I think
I'll never say never again
Those words will never pass my lips
This is the first thing I thought
This is the last thing that I want
You were the first one I loved
You were the first love I lost
I'll never say never say never again
I'll never say never say never again
I'll never say never say never again
I'll never say never say never again
This is the first thing I thought
This is the first thing I thought
This is the last thing that I want
You were the first one I loved
You were the first love I lost
This is the first thing I thought
This is the last thing that I want
You were the first one I loved
You were the first love I lost
I'll never say never say never again
I'll never say never say never again
I'll never say never say never again
I've got a question,
did you think we would ever believe you?
And on the note of rejection,
the line you walk is getting thin, so thin
Your green eyes are potent,
that last night I know who you were with
And you're a snake in the grass,
and always that has been
Go back home now
Go back to sleep, and we say
Go back with someone else who,
who wants you more than me
Just one more question,
why do you throw your words around town?
Like, they answer nobody's questions,
I am all ears, your taste comes out at night
Oh, while the whistles cry,
we're supposed to drop like flies
Was it something I said? Something I did?
That made you destroy all we built
It was something you said,
it was something you did that made
me think you weren't real
Go back home now
Go back to sleep, and we say
Go back with anything,
Nervous and your tearing at the seams
The lights are too bright and you've got cold feet
You look the part and you're only seventeen
Can you drag me up and show me what we're missing out on
Don't waste your time
We've heard it all before
We've had enough and hangers on and "friends" we didn't want
Don't waste you're time
We've heard it all before
We've had it up to heels and head and we won't take no more
You're a star but you haven't been turned on
Think you can shine this way
This way the whole way to the top
OH oh oh
Are you sure it's what you want?
Call it luck
Call it too much
Don't waste your time
We've heard it all before
We've had enough and hangers on and "friends" we didn't want
Don't waste you're time
We've heard it all before
We've had it up to heels and head and we won't take no more
The truth is a terrible thing
Don't you think?
The truth is a terrible thing
Well, I am the cancer running through your veins
I am the sweat that's dripping down the side of your face
Well, I am the pain in the back of your legs
It makes you fall to your knees, to your knees, it makes you believe
Well, I am the headline that's going to make front page news
I am that fashion you're all into
We had to try something different, we had to try something new
We had to make some heads turn, we had to put this to you
We had to try something different, we had to try something new
We had to make some heads turn, we had to put this to you
I am the rumor on everyone's lips
I am the curse on your girlfriend's hips
We are the different so we'll make a start
Tell all your friends and sound the alarm
I am that feeling that you've done something wrong
I am that friend who knew all along
We say we have our best friends yet we stab them in their back
We try to show some love and it's a skill that we lack
I've had it with this crowd, I am done with this town
I've had enough of these shows and it's over with you now
We had to try something different, we had to try something new
We had to make some heads turn, we had to put this to you
We had to try something different, we had to try something new
We had to make some heads turn, we had to put this to you
And I am the rumor on everyone's lips
I am the curse on your girlfriend's hips
We are the different so we'll make a start
Tell all your friends and sound the alarm
Hold your hands in, into the air
Hold your hands as, as if you care
Hold your hands in, into the air
Hold your hands as, as if you care
Hold your hands in, into the air
Hold on, hold
Hold your hands in, into the air
Hold your hands as, as if you care
Hold your hands in, into the air
Hold your hands as, as if you care
Hold your hands in, into the air
Hold your hands as, as if you care
Hold your hands in, into the air
Hold your hands as, as if you care
Hold your hands in, into the air
Am I more than you bargained for yet
I've been dying to tell you anything you want to hear
Cause that's just who I am this week
Lie in the grass, next to the mausoleum
I'm just a notch in your bedpost
But you're just a line in a song
(A notch in your bedpost, but you're just a line in a song)
Drop a heart, break a name
We're always sleeping in, and sleeping for the wrong team
We're going down, down in an earlier round
And Sugar, we're going down swinging
I'll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
[x2]
Is this more than you bargained for yet
Oh don't mind me I'm watching you two from the closet
Wishing to be the friction in your jeans
Isn't it messed up how I'm just dying to be him
I'm just a notch in your bedpost
But you're just a line in a song
(Notch in your bedpost, but you're just a line in a song)
Drop a heart, break a name
We're always sleeping in, and sleeping for the wrong team
We're going down, down in an earlier round
And Sugar, we're going down swinging
I'll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
[x2]
Down, down in an earlier round
And Sugar, we're going down swinging
I'll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
We're going down, down in an earlier round (Take aim at myself)
(Down, down in an earlier round)
And Sugar, we're going down swinging (Take back what you said)
(Down, down in an earlier round)
I'll be your number one with a bullet (Take aim at myself)
(Down, down in an earlier round)
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
We're going down, down (down, down)
Down, down (down, down)
We're going down, down (down, down)
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it
We're going down, down in an earlier round (Take aim at myself)
And Sugar, we're going down swinging (Take back what you said)
I'll be your number one with a bullet (Take aim at myself)
Oh have some heart and hold it to your chest
We weren't in love, we were too young
We throw our words around as if they were not gold
They are
Oh maybe someday I will be something more
Real with arms and legs so I can walk away
and stay away forever and some more, some more
I'll stick around to watch this town fall down to its knees
You can pray the day that you hope is coming round real soon
I will run and stay away in a place that I don't know well of
You can choose a different song that you will soon love
Oh here are the reasons that hurt me the most
Call off the search I'm coming home
People lie once, but not on the third
Not without reason, not for a girl.
The names will vary, the names they will change
But the game, the game it stays the
Oh love, we want the ones that we will grow to hate, to hate
It's just so
oh no, oh no...
Maybe someday I'll deserve something more
A home in which I will turn to grow
I plant the seeds so that we can become something more, something more
I'll stick around to watch this town fall down to its knees
You can pray the day that you hope is coming round real soon
I will run and stay away in a place that I don't know well of
You can chose a different song that you will soon love
Oh here are the reasons that hurt me the most
Call off the search she's coming home
People lie once, but not on the third
Let me tell you a story bout' a boy and a girl,
A very different version than you've ever heard.
Ok so I'm lying but all I'm trying to say,
This isn't about the one that got away.
Watch it from your ivory tower,
Paint the sky grey, like a coward.
How long you got?
I can go for hours.
A sweet little tale that ended sour,
My words will ring in your ears.
Take my advice and leave right now.
You can't find a way to sell yourself,
To someone who cares,
To someone desperate.
First came along my friends were dubious,
She cared for the stage, not who she was with.
I brushed it off and hit the road,
Only to hear she's in the other's 'pose'.
It was the end of summer in 2009,
I wasn't really looking but what did I find?
A golden girl with golden hair,
When I was with her everybody stared.
And I couldn't believe my luck had changed.
And I asked so nice but I 'wouldn't stay'
Take my advice and leave right now.
You can't find a way to sell yourself,
To someone who cares,
To someone desperate.
'Beggars can't be choosers',
I wouldn't choose you,
I've got better things to do with my time
I will bear in mind,
What was in their 'side'
(Na na na na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na,
Na na na na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na)
She said who do you, she said who do you,
She said who do you, she said who, DO YOU! ?
Who, do you? Who do you?
I said who do you, I said who do you.
Who do you, who do you, think you are,
Who do you, who do you, think you are,
Who do you, who do you, think you are,
Calm down she said consider this a warning.
A souvenir for the morning, a headache that you can't fix.
I said I can talk my way out of anything, but i am struggling in this emergency
This ones on your side.
I said this one is on your.
Ambulance I'm calling you now
Accidents bring the house down
Come on come on, you don't know me
Come on come on, you owe me nothing
Dry your eyes and stick them on ice.
Give your chest a rest it's, been cold your whole life
I'll have you know, the tables are about to turn
And you're going to get what, what you deserve.
Ambulance i'm calling you now
Accidents bring the house down
Come on come on, you don't know me
Come on come on, you owe me nothing
Is this is it my love, turn it up turn it up i want to hear you scream.
So sing, i am my own worst enemy, that's what she said to me.
And i am living out your dream.
So sing, i am my own worst enemy
So we can just breathe, a little more safely.
Ambulance i'm calling you now
Accidents bring the house down
Come on come on, you don't know me
Come on come on, you owe me nothing
Is this is it my love, turn it up turn it up i want to hear you scream.
And I'm watching you from a room with a view
Take it off, get some clues,
your next source, your next move
We will watch, we will talk, we will talk
We will watch, we will talk, we will talk
Down on you’re knees,
we can settle these debts in the sheets.
With some melodies.
The taste of your lips was a subtle hint,
that you’ve been jumping ship
Wasn't more than you were expecting,
wasn't more than you need
A sober safe bed keeps your head clear
And you know the rest
And I know I'm not the one you call when you are alone
And everybody else has their own verse and
You have your own song, your song
Down on you’re knees,
we can settle these debts in the sheets.
With some melodies.
The taste of your lips was a subtle hint,
that you’ve been jumping ship
Down on you’re knees,
we can settle these debts in the sheets.
With some melodies.
The taste of your lips was a subtle hint,
that you’ve been jumping ship
Down on you’re knees,
we can settle these debts in the sheets.
With some melodies.
The taste of your lips was a subtle hint,
The eyes you bought have gone to my head,
But they won't take you to my bed.
You talk a good game,
But girl, you've been played.
Look at this shade you chose to play.
The towns talk keeps me up to date,
We will never be the same.
This is a war,this is a heart,these are the strings you'll pull.
These are the stakes, they have been raised, it's your call.
Too much has changed, I hate this place but I don't want to leave it this way.
So let's get it straight, without a thought I'll take it away.
That's the price you pay for having luck in the first place.
Call it what you want, I've spent to long under your thumb and now the clouds have had their say.
I'll make a bet that says we don't leave this place as friends.
Are you comfortable, are you comfortable with this?
You play the lady, I'll play the gent, we will call it time well spent.
But I've been lying, and you're going to hate me for this.
This is the storm,so let it pour, and take over your shores.
Here comes the rain,I'll have my day it's so sore.
Let it be heard, lessons well learnt and it will never hurt like this again.
Take off your colours, who are you wearing them for?
Tick off your lovers, all respect was left at the door.
I had front row seats to you on your knees, it was everything I hoped it be.
I'll make a bet that says we don't leave this place as friends.
Are you comfortable, are you comfortable with this?
You play the lady, I'll play the gent, we will call it time well spent.
Save your breath
And I'll talk instead
And you'll just drop dead and stay away from me
You've got me wrapped around your fingers
But I've got you figured out
And I'm down but not out
She said, love is, love is for the blind
And you gave yours without your eyes
So why is more shy?
I hate to say I told you so
You're never gonna let this go
With every little look she gave and every move she made
She's got you on the tip of your toes.
Catch your breath
I know you're upset
But I am resilient
To end this test
I got you down
Into a silence
And I've got evidence
That your down and your out
She said, love is, love is for the blind
And you gave yours without your eyes
So why is more shy?
I hate to say I told you so
Your never gonna let this go
With every little look she gave and every move she made
She's got you on the tip of your toes.
You know, this is how it goes
Nothing lasts forever
That you should know
And how it shows
You on the ropes
You feel so low
Just know, I am with you
Hate to say I told you so
I'm never gonna let this go
With every little look I'll give
And every move I make
I hate to say I told you so
You're never gonna let this go
With every little look she gives and every move she made
She's got you on the tip of your toes
(Oh oh oh oh oh whoa whoa)
On the tip of your toes
(Oh oh oh oh oh whoa whoa)
(Oh oh oh oh oh whoa)
(Oh oh oh oh oh whoa whoa)
You've got a lot to say
For the one that walked away
I give, you take
That's the way it's always been
Oh, how do I know
If I should stay or just go?
The bottom line is this way
That I'll never know
Stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me, oh
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
You've got a lot to say
For the one that pushed me away
I give, you take
Some things, they never change
Just change
Stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me
I never knew that I could be this way
(Stay with me)
I never knew that I could walk away
(Stay with me)
These things take time to grow
It's been said that time heals wounds
But no, I won't be controlled
And so the story goes
Stay with me
Stay with me, stay with me
Stay with me
And now I know that I can be this way
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
And now I know that I can walk away
Keep your hands to yourself, these lips belong to someone else
And you know that you will never get on it
Keep your lies to yourself, every lie you heard from someone else
And you know that you will never get with it
Well, I sussed you good, you knew I would
Oh haven't you heard you're just a mark on my shirt?
Another night and another girl
Well, I taste so good, you knew I would
So who's keeping score on who is a whore?
With you by my side, that look in your eye
I hope you don't
Go home and wash your jeans 'cause there's dirt on the knees
Your jealously doesn't sit with me
You love, I love you too, below the waist I'll start charging you
'Cause that's just how the players play the game
My winning streak is missing
So who's keeping score on who is a whore?
With you by my side, that look in your eye
I hope you don't
So who's keeping score on who is a whore?
With you by my side, that look in your eye
I hope you don't
And you whore
Save it for, save it for the bedroom
Save it for, save it for the bedroom
Save it for, save it for the bedroom
Save it for, save it for the bedroom
Save it for, save it for the bedroom
Save it for, save it for the bedroom
Save it for, save it for the bedroom
Save it for, save it for the bedroom
Save it for, save it for the bedroom

Save it for, save it for the bedroom
Save it for, save it for the bedroom
Save it for, save it for the bedroom
We'll save it for the, save it for the bedroom
Too much, too much is never enough
I had you and I gave you up.
No idea where my mind was for months
I woke up, I cashed in on all of my luck,
walked hand and hand with your trust.
And everybody was kissing on fire,
and we all got burnt.
It'd be safer, to hate her,
than to love her and to lose her.
It'd be safer to hate her all around.
Caught you having a laugh,
did you catch me have the last?
I've been smiling like this for days,
just to make up for my mistakes.
In the dark, I watch everyone disappear,
and I am beginning to let myself down.
I am pushing everyone that was in, out.
It'd be safer, to hate her,
than to love her and to lose her.
It'd be safer to hate her all around.
And nobody knows what it's like
to live and die on the inside.
Nobody knows what it's like
to be one of a kind.
When we die, do we feel alive? (x2)
It'd be safer, to hate her,
than to love her and to lose her.
It'd be safer to hate her all around.
And nobody knows what it's like
to live and die on the inside.
I know, I'm finding it hard to breathe
And I've been drowning in my own sleep
I feel a hate crashing over me
So rescue me
(oh, oh, oh, oh)
(yeah)
So rescue me
Everybody need to drive before we break out like hives
Gotta learn to put this shit we call pride to the side
I ain't no player, without you I'm not okay
Viva la Vida, now she wanna give me Coldplay
Oh, once you find you can't keep it
You broke my heart in a million tiny little pieces
And I would splurge on you, never put hurt on you
Talkin' to your girlfriends, tryna find dirt on you
Damn, is this what we have come to?
When he was cheating, I was the person you'd run to
Guess it's for another time, this is what I've come to find
Should've seen it coming, but Stevie Wonder, love is blind
I know, I'm finding it hard to breathe
And I've been drowning in my own sleep
And I feel a hate crashing over me
(that's what I feel, right?)
So rescue me
(oh, oh, oh, oh)
So rescue me
She used to be the person of my dreams
And now she's just a demon of my nightmares
I know this shit ain't what it seems
Hey, hey, you ain't leaving, I'll be right here
Shorty just rescue me, I know you especially
The way I always felt with you, thinking that true telepathy
Like the age and their games, we used to be binding
Who would have thought when you left, the right would become the wrong thing?
I know, I'm finding it hard to breathe
And I've been drowning in my own sleep
And I feel a hate crashing over me
So rescue me
(rescue me)
So rescue me
And I've been drowning in my own sleep
And I feel a hate crashing over me
So rescue me
(oh, oh, oh)
Oh rescue me
I know
I'm finding it hard to breathe
And I've been drowning in my own sleep
I feel a hate crashing over me
So rescue me
Ohh Ohh Ohh Ohhhhhh
So rescue me
Everybody need to drive
Before we break out like hives
Gotta learn to put this shit we call
Pride to the side
I ain't no player without you I'm not OJ
Viva la vida
Now she wanna give me Coldplay
Ahh, Once you find you can't keep it
You broke my heart into million tiny little pieces
And now it's purge on you
Never put hurt on you
Talkin' to your girlfriends
Tryna find dirt on you
Damn, Is this what we have come to?
When he was cheating
I was the person you run to.
Guess it's for another time
This is what I've come to find
Should've seen this coming but
Stevie Wonder
Love is blind
I know
I'm finding it hard to breathe
And I've been drowning in my own sleep
I feel a hate crashing over me
So rescue me
Ohh Ohh Ohh Ohhhhhhhhh
So rescue me
She used to be the person of my dreams
And now she's just a demon of my nightmares
I know this shit ain't what it seems
Hey, hey you ain't leaving, I'll be right here
Shorty just rescue me
I know you especially
The way I always felt with you
Thinking that true telepathy
Like the age and their games
We used to be blinding
Who would have thought that when you left
The right would become the wrong thing
I know
I'm finding it hard to breathe
And I've been drowning in my own sleep
I feel a hate crashing over me
So rescue me
So rescue me
And I've been drowning in my own sleep
And I feel a hate crashing over me
So rescue me
Ohh Ohh Ohh
So rescue me
I've been trying to make sense
I've been shouting under my breath
How's any of this in my interest?
When you sold me out
I must've not got the cheque
Your lust is a lie but it comes as no suprise
Time after time you coast right past the line
I do my best to,
To make amends with you
But I just can't see the end
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless and you're defenseless
Isn't it funny how
Those black clouds follow you around?
It's karma smiling down
Just let me know when it's in town
You act like the world owes you a favour
You want it all but you don't like the taste oh
You've been throwing bricks at my window
Like there's no better way to say 'hello'
Hello
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless and you're defenseless
The best you never had
The best you never had
The best you never had
The best you never had
I'm the devil on your shoulder
I'm the conscious in your mind
I'm the feeling that you
You cannot hide
I'm the devil on your shoulder
Telling you that love is blind
It's ok when it's hiding in disguise
Your loose lips let
Let words slide
You spend too much
Time talking about my life
Stories you will spin
Just for a power trip
It's safe to say that I am not into it
In the picture you are not
Someone else is in your spit
This is the result of people moving on
Good luck with killing time
You won't be killing mine
I'll do my best to always be on your mind
I never once said I didn't mean this
I can't wait to see how this one pans out
You are the first to question my achievemnets
But that's alright
My dreams I've been living
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless and you're defenseless
The best you never had
The best you never had
The best you never had
Tie a noose around my neck, and kick away the chair baby.
You've got me right where you need.
Cut the words you're about to wake when
We've got you right where you always are (open up your eyes)
Let me know

Let me know
Come on, cut the ropes.
Come on, cut the ropes.
Cut, cut the ropes. (ropes)
Cut, cut the ropes.

Try to promise, promise everything,
Try the words so we can break,
Promise promise everything.
Eggs are so that I can weep. (?)
Promise promise everything,
So I can believe in what you say.
Promise promise everything,
Eggs are so that I can't leave.
Just won't you let me know then?
Just won't you just let me see?
Just won't you let me know, Dad?
(Just what can you want me to see? I can't see this.)
Just won't you just let me see? (Until I leave.)
Tireless, despite us. Just playing this, WHAT?
Let me know (why won't you?)
Let me know
Let me know (Promise promise everything, try the words so we can break,)
I wanna hold em like they do in Texas, please
Fold em, let em hit me. raise it, baby, stay with me
Luck and intuition play the cards with Spades to start
And after he's been hooked, I'll play the one that's on her heart
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh oh oh ohh oh oh
I'll get her hot, show her what I've got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh oh oh ohh oh oh

No, she can't read my poker face
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
I wanna roll with her, a hard pair we will be
A little gambling is fun when you're with me
Russian Roulette is not the same without a gun
And baby, when it's love, if it's not rough it isn't fun, fun
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh oh oh ohh oh oh
Can't read my, can't read my
No, she can't read my poker face
Can't read my, can't read my

I won't tell you that I love you, kiss or hug you
I won't tell you that I love you, kiss or hug you
I won't tell you that I love you, kiss or hug you
I won't tell you that I love you, kiss or hug you
Can't read my, can't read my

No, she can't read my poker face
She can't read my poker face
She can't read my poker face
She can't read my poker face
You're not on my list of things to do
'Cause I've already done you
And I'm protective, it's so cute
And only when it suits you
And is this all in vain?
Can these words explain?
Desperate minds mean desperate measures
We've gotta keep this one together
You're young and in love
That should be enough
At least you'll have nice thoughts of me
When I'm cheating on you in your dreams
I told you before, my closet's clean
And that these bones don't belong to me
Try this one for size
Try me one more time
You hold me down by keeping me around
Desperate minds mean desperate measures
We've gotta keep this one together
You're young and in love
That should be enough
Desperate minds mean desperate measures
We've gotta keep this one together
You're young and in love
That should be enough
You hold me down by keeping me around
And no one takes me home
No one takes me home
You hold me down by keeping me around
And no one takes me home
No one takes me home
Desperate minds mean desperate measures
We've gotta keep this one together
You're young and in love
That should be enough
Young and in love (that should be, that should be
enough)
Young and in love (that should be, that should be
Where do you get off, making noises
Where do you get this from, breaking boys in two
Lets take this to the bedroom so I can undress you
Ask you are you ready, aren't you ready, am I?
Even if it hurts you, even if it breaks me
We wont let this friendship sink.
Where do you get off you left me shaking.
Well here I am out of the way
Hold his hand, and make me hate.
How can you trust him to fit the shape of everything.
Everything looks so good, good from here, good to me.
Even if this hurts you even if it breaks me.
We wont let this friendship sink.
Even if you choose
No we wont loose it all.
Even if we are black and bruised.
Liar.
Say sorry I'll go first, she will, learn the art of ****
I woke up this morning with a grudge the size of a short story
Oh, I feel, I feel so low
Let me start at the end, the part I haven't figured out yet
Yes, I am, I'm moving slow
You are playin' the lead
The headache that my actions feed
Oh, I've only got myself to blame
This is another test which I would fail when at my best at my best
Oh, always ending the same
If I were an honest guy
I'd give this role another try
What do I do when I am so in love with you,
I forgot what I wanted to say
What do I do when you won't change your ways,
It's time, it's time
If I just save you, you could save me too
If I just save you, then you could save me too
(da da da da, da da da da)
I woke up the next morning and I didn't see it coming
Oh, your bags were packed and gone
I called all your friends and they said hadn't seen you yet
Oh, my head's going to explode
If I were an honest guy
I'd give this role another try
What do I do when I am so in love with you,
I forgot what I wanted to say
What do I do when you won't change your ways,
It's time, it's time
If I just save you, you could save me too
If I just save you, then you could save me too
I believe in the finer things, and you don't believe in me
I said, I believe in the finer things, and you don't believe in me
I said, I believe in the finer things, and you don't..
If I just save you, you could save me too
If I just save you, then you could save, you could save me too
What do I do when I am so in love with you,
I forgot what I wanted to say
What do I do when I am so in love with you,
I forgot what I wanted to say
If I just save you
(No one does it better,
No one does it better,
No one does it oh,
No one does it better)
If I just save you
(No one does it better,
No one does it better,
No one does it oh,
No one does it better)
I woke up this morning with a grudge the size of a short story,
Well I need you,
My bed's without you,
Oh no,
This one,
Only excusing on the ice,
Surprise,
Watch out,
I wouldn't trust you with the words,
Let that be a lesson learnt.
The lights are on, and it's time to be me, make on business,
With the promise you kept, that keeps me here.
But don't you know,
We're on the road, gotta get the right insurance,
Play with matches you're gonna get burnt,
Let you know with your dial tone,
But I still wait for your call.
Watch out honey now,
My bed stripped down the wall,
Push me, Back there,
One night of love went from me to him, to her,
I love great big smile, cameras, don't lie,
Not even for you sweetheart.
One day, I'll see you on the big screen,
In a film called 'Who shot the prom queen?'
You'll be an extra on the sidelines,
Just like a co star, sign
But don't you know,
We're on the road, gotta get the right insurance,
Play with matches you're gonna get burnt,
Let you know with your dial tone,
But I still wait for your call.
Still wait for your call,
Still wait for your call,
Still wait for your call,
Still wait for your call.
And say you're fine, last time,
I still wait for your call and say you're fine, the last time,
I still wait for your call.
Your call.
Please speak up, I can't hear you.
Please speak up, I can't hear you.
You should have seen me last night,
Working the room had their chests going tight,
I got a theory, all I need is one drink.
I've got you breathing all heavy and deep,
Gasping for air and down on your knees,
You're in love, but for as only as long as you're wanted.
You never miss a beat, but.
And you're the best kept secret, rolling off my tongue, some say you're
As easy as they come and I say, what a way for or the ice to break.
The best kept secret, rolling off my tongue, some say you're
As easy as they come and I say, what a way for or the ice to break.
Break down, you've always been so proud,
And just look at you now.
You're a bad smell in this room.
"And I don't wanna, I don't wanna be bad news."
"And I don't wanna, I don't wanna be bad news."
But you are, but you are.
I would walk through hell with a smile on my face.
Just so I could make my mark on the hottest place.
The best kept secret, rolling off my tongue, some say you're
As easy as they come and I say, what a way for the ice to break.
The best kept secret, rolling off my tongue, some say you're
As easy as they come and I say, what a way for the ice to break.
The best kept secret, rolling off my tongue, some say you're
As easy as they come and I say, what a way for the ice to break.
And you're the best kept secret, rolling off my tongue, some say you're
As easy as they come and I say, what a way for the ice to break.
The best kept secret, rolling off my tongue, some say you're
As easy as they come and I say, what a way for the ice to break.
Never miss a beat, noo.
Never miss a beat, noo.
Never miss a beat, noo.
I wrote this song, just to piss you off,
This is a war between my body and tongue,
You think you got it,
Come, show us what you've got.
I move away and watch you move through the walls,
If this is a game, then I'll sit out,
Everyone's a winner,
With a heart that small.
Keep me up, keep me up,
Oh I won't sleep tonight,
These rules were made so long,
And you know they're right.
I saw her coming like a storm,
I saw her come like I did before,
The weight of the world is on my shoulders,
But I just need someone else to hold it.
And I don't know why we're here
Is it to love of love and fear,
Everyone's a winner,
With a heart that small.
Keep me up, keep me up,
Oh I won't sleep tonight,
These rules were made so long,
And you know they're right.
Give her up, give her up,
Cause you're gonna die tonight,
She'll lead you on, spit you out.
Just to prove that she is right.
And I know it was wrong to lie,
But I need you to keep us alive,
So if you, can die, collide,
Which one of us,
Which one of us,
Will survive?
Keep me up, keep me up,
Oh I won't sleep tonight,
These rules were made so long,
And you know they're right.
Give her up, give her up,
Cause you're gonna die tonight,
She'll lead you on, spit you out.
Just to prove that she is right.
Oh we know, we know it's right.
We know,
Know, we know it's right.
And it's right.
Know, we know it's right.
We know,
Know, we know it's right.
Da da da da da da da da da...
Hell had you by the throat
You never got to heaven
But you got real close
Your past has you in a chokehold,
But you deserve it from what i've been told
Call my bluff say what you want,
I'm looking down at you from the top,
I beg for attention in small doses,
Leave the scene smelling of dead roses
Loverboy, you played those hearts like toys
Don't you feel bad, don't you feel bad?
feel bad for them.
This is your night with arms wide open,
I'm the option you shouldn't have chosen,
Scared of the dark the door's wide open
This is a night you'll regret in the morning.
Loverboy, you played those hearts like toys
Don't you feel bad, don't you feel bad?
Fell bad for them
Given the choice would you do it again?
Of course I would, of course I should,
Well I'm your friend, friends with benefits.
Da da da da da da da da da..
Loverboy, you played those hearts like toys,
Don't you feel bad, don't you feel bad?
Feel bad for them.
Given the choice would you do it again?
Of course I would, of course I should,
I feel lonely when you disown me and my friends,
You say you used to know me then
Now my bodies under arrest
We are not your lovers; we are not your friends,
We are just sinners and we're condemned to death.
We are not your lovers; we are not your friends,
F*ck what you believe in, cause this is the end.
You can't find nothing at all;
When there's nothing there all alone.
I'm everything that you're not;
Which is what makes you want me so
We are not your lovers; we are not your friends,
We are just sinners and we're condemned to death.
We are not your lovers; we are not your friends,
F*ck what you believe in, cause this is the end.
Take me home, please take me home,
Take me somewhere I want to go,
Take me home, please take me home,
Please take me somewhere, I want to go.
We are not your lovers; we are not your friends,
We are just sinners and we're condemned to death.
We are not your lovers; we are not your friends,
All I want to do is write a song
One I haven't ever sung before
I don't want to sing the same old thing
It wouldn't mean anything to me
All I want to do is write a song
But everything I say just comes out wrong
I guess I'll just throw my thoughts away
Maybe pick them up another day
I just lost control
I just wanted you to know
When I'm on my own
I feel invisible
I just lost control
I just needed you to know
When in front of you
I feel invincible
I want to write a song that makes you smile
One that keeps you around for a while
I wish for, small things
Like losing, this feeling
I've seen this coming
I've seen you, leaving
I just lost control
I just wanted you to know
When I'm on my own
I feel invisible
I just lost control
I just needed you to know
When in front of you
I feel invincible
I know I've said and done some things
That've made you feel a little empty
I've got a whole lot to learn
Every bridge I see, I seem to burn so
All I've got to do is sing a song
Tell a little truth to everyone
Sick of saying sorry when I'm not
But after a little love that's
That's all I've
That's all I've got
I just lost control
I just wanted you to know
When I'm on my own
I feel invisible
I just lost control
I just needed you to know
When in front of you
I feel invincible
If one drink can make tonight
Slip my mind, then I
Should drink up so I can forget
That I have lived my life
You are an example of better things to come
So I'll wait on some other escape
That leads me nowhere fast
I've gotta ask
You've got nothing to lose
Except for me and you
And I don't want that attitude
When you know I can do
I'll do better than you
If one drink can make tonight
Slip your mind then you
Should drink up so you can convince
Yourself that I'm cute
We are an example of
Why not to fall in love
It takes a turn and then it hurts
More than you could dream of
When you've got nothing to lose
Except for me and you
And I don't want that attitude
When you know I can do
I'll do better than you
And you've got nothing to prove
Oh no, wait, yes, you do
You wear it so well
That we think it's true
You can't stay, I want you gone
You're pulling the carpet I was standing on
You can't stay, I want you gone
You're pulling the carpet I was standing on
You can't stay, I want you gone
You're pulling the carpet I was standing on
Here's the exits, exits, exits
You've got nothing to lose
Except for me and you
And I don't want that attitude
When you know I can do
I'll do better than you
We're already down for love
Why not to fall in, why not to fall in love?
We're already down for love
Woah, woah, woah.
Woah, woah, woah.
I broke you down just to be built.
I made a sound just to be heard.
I make mistakes just to feel guilt.
I made some traps just to see some hurt.
You talk a lot a bout what you don't know,
You say you wanna say but always go,
You've lit a spark but you'll never glow.
You've go no chance in this hell.
Should I, do I,
Even care at all.
Could I, will I,
Be there to watch you fall.
Woah, woah, woah.
Woah, woah, woah.
You're worthy of my time,
I think not.
Always on my mind, afraid not.
Expecting the worst, I do a lot.
It's not lazy, it's called an art.
You talk a lot a bout what you don't know,
You say you wanna say but always go,
You've lit a spark but you'll never glow.
You've go no chance in this hell.
Should I, do I,
Even care at all.
Could I, will I,
Be there to watch you fall.
To fall, to fall, to fall, to fall.
Should I, do I,
Even care at all.
Could I, will I,
Be there to watch you fall.
Should I, do I,
Even care at all.
Could I, will I,

I said there´s so much more that you won´t see.
What did you expect from me?
I said I´m smarter than
Him you see.
Kiss and Tell

And I´ve done my time

They say the problems come,
Come in pairs and I am number one.
So take a look at your friends,
Oh, envy is a terrible thing.
Oh, you.
You're so smart
So smart that you didn't call my bluff
oh you,
you should just run..
if you run
if you run
If you run away you won't stay.
That's so cool.
Is it everything you wanted it to be?
(are you scared?)
Sing, take it away take it away
It's so easy to stay, easy to stay
When you know everything.
Stop
You had us all convinced
That you were something
someone couldn't miss
But what did we really miss?
You say you'll give it up and you'll give it up all the way
You say you'll give it up and you'll give it up all the way
Give it up and give it up and give it all away..
If you run
If you run
If you run away you won't stay.
That's so cool.
Is it everything you wanted it to be?
(are you scared?)
Sing, take it away take it away
It's so easy to stay, easy to stay
When you know everything.
I've got one good reason to keep you on your feet
I've got another in the back home in the seat
I've got one good reason to keep you on your feet
I've got another in the back home in the seat
I've got one good reason to keep you on your feet
I've got another in the back home in the seat
I've got one good reason to keep you on your feet
I've got another in the back home in the seat
I've got one good reason to keep you on your feet
I've got another in the back home in the seat
I've got one good reason to keep you on your feet
I've got another in the back home in the seat
I've got one good reason to keep you on your feet
I've got another in the back home in the seat
I've got one good reason to keep you on your feet
I've got another in the back home in the seat
And you're so cool
woooo
Running around just running your mouths
About your home tome
that's booming you know
but you're so cool, you're so cool oh.
Running around just running your mouths
About your home tome
that's booming you know
I guess now is a good time to tell the truth
The pedigree I carry will swallow you
I am not what you are
I am flawless in every way
Birds eye view
I'm watching you
Sad sad sight for the sore sore eyes and a headache for the weakest of
minds
you got the boys the boys all tongue tied, but I know they're wasting
their time
You can the ghost in my hall
You can be the smile I don't want
I will be the fly on your wall
You can be the distance in between
You can be everything I need
You will be the girl I don't call
Oh just imagine what I thought when I opened up that door
It was a million things to one
and Oh just imagine what they'll think
When they see me lead you north
hell they'll be loosing sleep
you're wrong
Wrong
You can the ghost in my hall
You can be the smile I don't want
I will be the fly on your wall
You can be the distance in between
You can be everything I need
You will be the girl I don't call
It's so wrong
So wrong
It's so wrong
You can be ghost in my hall
You can be the smile I don't want
I will be the fly on your
You can be ghost in my hall
You can be the smile I don't want
I will be the fly on your wall
You can be the distance in between
You can be everything I need
You will be the girl I don't call
Jealous minds think alike
but you're a damn damn tie
I'm wasting all my time
Let me suggest you do what you do,
And I will do what I do best
You know I've always been resenting,
resenting every word you've ever said
I load my words with care
and aim them at the desperate
just to check if they can still hear
as my innocence disappears
I must be blind
to not have seen the signs
Such a pretty little thing,
so much prettier without me
Life's a bitch, but I'm friends with her sister
We talked it over and it's our little secret
It's your world, I'm just trying to live in it
When you're done maybe try a little listening
I smile at all my enemies,
I lead a life of positivity
I deflect curses thrown my way
I regret not saying
I must be blind
to not have seen the signs
Such a pretty little thing,
so much prettier without me
Oh, when you decide to cut the strings
When you decide to ruin my summertime
We could be anything,
we could be anything,
we could be what you like
we could be anything,
we could be anything,
we could be what you like
Oh, we could be what you like
I must be blind
to not have seen the signs
Such a pretty little thing,
so much prettier without me
Oh, when you decide to cut the strings
there's something you don't know, i've walked you off to keep you on your toes
there's something you didn't know, i've grown some bones, so i can walk you off
tonight, tonight, everything's alright tonight, tonight
if i were in your shoes, i'd run a thousand miles just to tell you
if i were in your room, using just my eyes i would tell you
and i would tell you
there's something you didn't know, you've got your teeth sunk in me and it hurts,
and i'm a lie away from saying what i really think, is this the bottom of a bottle saying swim or sink and you don't even need me now
tonight, tonight, everything's alright, tonight, tonight,
if i were in your shoes, i'd run a thousand miles just to tell you
if i were in your room, using just my eyes, using just my eyes,i would tell you
if i were in your shoes, i'd run a thousand miles just to tell you
if i were in your room, using just my eyes i would tell you
if i were in your shoes, in your shoes, in your
Is this hard to swallow
You keep your thoughts by your pillow
Just so you can adore them
Just so we can ignore them
I'd rather lead not follow,
I'd rather stay and not go home
My moves have got so old
or so I've been told
But now you've lost it all
We're running out of time
We've got things on our mind
And things we just don't like
Who do you want to see?
Who do you want to be tonight?
Forgetting the promises you make,
Is how your, your promises easily break
Oh, you sit on your fence
And I'll dig under it
I'll count my losses
And I'll count my sins
I hope you've cleared your mind
We're running out of time
We've got things on our mind
And things we just don't like
Who do you want to see?
Who do you want to be tonight?
We're running out of time
We've got things on our mind
And things we just don't like
Who do you want to see?
Who do you want to be tonight?
We were young and we were blind
We ignored the warning signs
How were we to know?
How were we to know?
We were close but still so far
We grew apart and out of touch
All I wanted was...
All I wanted was to say...
We're running out of time
We've got things on our mind
And things we just don't like
Who do you want to see?
Who do you want to be tonight?
We're running out of time
We've got things on our mind
And things we just don't like
Who do you want to see?
Who do you want to be tonight?
Woah woah woah woah woahoah,
Woah woah oh woah woah,
Woah woah woah woah woahoah,
Woah woahoahow.
You’ve been looking at me like you’ve got something to say,
You got flaws in your step you’re miles away from anything,
a-a-a-anyway.
Lets get to the point,
The words that fell from your lips,
Didn’t mean anything; they didn’t mean shit, to you or him.
But tonight, but tonight, we will be alright;
Yes the champagne is on ice for you and I.
And tonight, and tonight,
We will be alright,
Coz we got it all, and all what's left inside,
Let’s just keep on talking.
I smell your scent on my skin and the clothes that I wear,
It’s a thought in my head and I can’t shake it,
Of you and him.
Sh-sh-sh-shake it,
I am at the party too,
I am in the room next to you,
With my back to the door and you was on the floor,
And you look desperate.
But tonight, but tonight, We will be alright;
Yes the champagne is on ice for you and I.
And tonight, and tonight,
We will be alright,
Coz we got it all, and all what's left inside
Let’s just keep on talking.
And don't let me down, and don't let me down,
And don't let me down, and don't let me down,
And don't let me down.
But tonight, but tonight, we will be alright;
Yes the champagne is on ice for you and I.
And tonight, and tonight,
We will be alright,
Coz we got it all, and all what's left inside
Let’s just keep on talking.
Woah woah woah woah woahoah,
So this is the end
Of you and me
We had a good run
And I'm setting you free
To do as you want
To do as you please
Without me
Remember when you were my boat
And I was your sea
Together we'd float so delicately
But that was back when
We could talk about anything
Coz I don't know who I am
When you're running circles in my head
And I don't know just who you are
When you're sleeping in someone else's bed.
3 whole words and 8 letters late
And that would've worked
On me yesterday
We're not the same
I wish that could change
But it can't
And I say your name
And in the same breath
I say something that
I'll grow to regret
So keep your hands on your chest
And sing with me
That we don't wanna believe
Coz I don't know who I am
When you're running circles in my head
And I don't know just who you are
When you're sleeping in someone else's bed.
So its true what they say
If you love someone you should set them free
Oh its true what they say
You wanna throw it away
I don't know who you are!
Yeah I don't know who you are...
Coz I don't know who you are
When you sleep with somebody else.
Coz I don't know who I am
When you're sleeping with him.
Its true what they say
You've got a nerve giving me the cold shoulder
Giving me the twice over, that's not deserved
And we'll talk again when you're sober
You said that I've got cold and our heat has gone
I wanna be your eyes
So you can see what you've done
I wanna be your ears
So you can hear everything that's been missing
Finders keepers
Will you keep me in mind?
I like secrets
'Cause they keep me in line
Old habits die hard
But I'm too young to die
I guess it's a mess if you make your bed
So why are we still laying in it?
And I could barely sleep, I could barely eat
And it's been three whole weeks
Since I heard you speak
So hard to take
That eighteen months was built to break
Oh, I love mistakes
Especially ones you've made
I bet you're sorry
Finders keepers
Will you keep me in mind?
I like secrets
'Cause they keep me in line
Old habits die hard
But I'm too young to die
Finders keepers
The whole thing is a lie
You won't find her
'Cause she's too hard to find
Take my advice and boy, run a mile
And have another drink
And then think this one over
You dig yourself a grave everyday you're sober
Do you see what I mean?
Have your best interest written all over me
I could never be what you need
Finders keepers
Will you keep me in mind?
I like secrets
'Cause they keep me in line
Old habits die hard
But I'm too young to die
Finders keepers
The whole thing is a lie
You won't find her
'Cause she's too hard to find
Take my advice and boy, run a mile
And I bet you guess me right
(You guess me yes, you guessed me right)
Hold on, where did you get those little facts from?
The last I heard we hadn’t changed for anyone
To celebrate you paste your hate for attention
And hang it high for everyone to see
I said too many things that I meant
And you don’t think for yourself
And you chose to believe anything that you hear
But I wouldn’t do that to you
Even though you do that to…
Confused, to whom and where I go with all my good news
The forum said it so fuck it must be true
How can I ever even think to trust you?
So I'm gonna cut you, cut you, cut you loose
I said too many things that i meant
And you don’t think for yourself
And you chose to believe anything that you hear
But I wouldn’t do that to you
Wait, where you say you've been
Who you been with
Where you say you're goin'
Who you goin' with
Keep me on my toes, Keep me in the know
Wait, keep me in your skin, Keep me in your chest.
I'll wait for it to start; I'll wait for it to end
Keep me on my toes, Keep me in the know
But when I looked at her, I thought of only you
If only there was proof I could use to show it's true
We were young, we were in our teens
It wasn't real love
Spent behind bars
Oh it's sad to think, We just let it be
Prisoners of love
It's so easy for it to be something second guessed
Easy to read, don't let it become a meaningless routine, it's meaningless to me
But when I looked at her, I thought of only you
If only there was proof I could use to show it's true
Just crash, fall down
I'll wrap my arms around you now
Just crash, it's our time now
To make this work second time around
We grew up, we worked and changed our ways
Just like wildfire, been burning now for days
Tearing down those walls, nothings in our way
I said nothings in our way
And I know, I've said this all before, but opposites attract
We try and run away, but end up running back
And all I want to do, all I want to do
Is lie down and
Crash, fall down
I'll wrap my arms around you now
Just crash, it's our time now
To make it work, second time around
Ohhhhh crash, fall down
Just crash, fall down
Just crash, fall down
If I could have a minute please
Then I'd bring you to your knees
This contagious chemistry is killing me
Oh you'll never disappear
Until I give permission dear
'Cause you're always gonna always be needy to please
Dearest enemy, I fear that
You will just rush me along the way
Somewhere between the fake smiles and your free drinks
Please don't smother me, I swear that
I need some room to breathe while with you
All up, down and over me
You're not a name, you're just a face
It's contagious so catch it
This love is dirtier than you think
Don't believe your eyes
Believe your ears, trust me
This'll sink lower than you think
Don't believe your eyes
Believe your ears, trust me
Dearest Enemy, you should listen to the streets
Because they tell you all you need to know
'Bout who and what you are
No smoke without a fire
With that I'll name drop you a liar
It suits your skin and bones
You've known all along
It's exactly what you are
It's contagious so catch it
This love is dirtier than you think
Don't believe your eyes
Believe your ears, trust me
This'll sink lower than you think
Don't believe your eyes
Believe your ears, trust me
This is the first and the last time I swear
There's more where that came from
She said, do you know what that means?
'Cause I know what that means
This is the first and the last time I swear
It's a numbers game and you were there
Do you know what this means?
'Cause we know what this means
No (Oh!)
Who'd you think I was? Yeah
And oh (Oh!)
This leads to the only lead you were working on
And oh (Oh!)
And you were hopeless at best, yeah
And oh, forget the rest
Hotel rooms, cheap thrill dress
Lack of common sense
Could make this happen
If I could have a minute please
Then I'd being you to your knees
This contagious, contagious chemistry
Dearest Enemy
You should have never trusted me
I've got a bad feeling,
That I went and got dirt on your name
And you swear you heard them say,
That is the guy who makes the biggest mistakes oh
He said, she said, that I'm a joke,
The kind of hoax that leaves a lump in your throat
From what I hear I still maintain some class
And if you let me be your first
I swear I'll be your last
And all the rumors that you may have heard
Have left a mark and striped you of your worth
And I never meant to go
I'm leaving you the only way I know
And I never meant to go
I'm leaving you the only way I know
You've got a gut feeling that
I went and got dirt on your name and
You swear you heard them say,
That giving up will be your biggest mistake
I've got a spot for blondes and green eyes
I am falling faster and it frames no surprise
Shallow is as shallow does
And if you let me have my way
I swear I'll tear you apart
All I've got is what I bare in these arms,
The saddest part is that is not enough
And everybody knows
And I never meant to go
I'm leaving you the only way I know
And I never meant to go
I'm leaving you the only way I know
And all I've got is what you don't
Wanna know where I will go
The saddest part is I am not with you
And I never meant to go
I'm leaving you the only way I know
And I never meant to go
I'm leaving you the only way I know
You're a champ,
Itching for comeback,
But you're an inch, an inch away
Have you ever
Felt like you could do better
You have to use your umbrella inside
You have to keep your eyes open at all times
Have you ever
made mistakes that you regret
Don't say you never
You can't play a player
Oh you all wish you the best
And i'll wait for this to blow over
I'll take some time to recover
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
You and all your morals
Worry about them tommorow
Double standers through the roof
You're sitting on the top about to fall through
And you always bring me down
Even though I
Carry the flag around
wanna talk like adultsÿ now?
And hey there little friend
Here's some things I never said
And i'll wait for this to blow over
I'll take some time to recover
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
And i'll wait for this to blow over
I'll take some time to recover
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
And i'll wait for this to blow over
I'll take some time to recover
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
And i'll wait for this to blow over
I'll take some time to recover
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
This is the calm before the storm,
Three words through your bedroom door.
And everybody knows that,
It is the place to start.
Why say something safe,
When I can blow you away.
It's a game only liars play,
Stop swinging above your weight.
So take off
All of your clothes.
There ain't no shame of taking names,
My heart isn't in the home.
So take off
All of your clothes.
There ain't no shame of taking names,
My heart isn't in the home.
This is a stab in the back,
That I have been waiting for,
You've had me running in circles,
Loosing my head at all costs.
And it isn't a secret,
If you can't keep it.
So I disguise the lie,
Cut you down, down to size.
So take off
All of your clothes.
There ain't no shame of taking names,
My heart isn't in the home.
So take off
All of your clothes.
There ain't no shame of taking names,
My heart isn't in the home.
Cowards are golden,
And I know the words hurt.
Bones we can fix,
And lessons we'll learn.
Cowards are golden,
And I know the words hurt.
Bones we can fix,
The lessons we'll learn.
Cowards are golden,
Cowards are golden,
Cowards are golden,
Cowards are golden,
Cowards are golden,
And I know the words hurt.
Bones we can fix,
The lessons we'll learn.
Cowards are golden,
And I know the words hurt.
Bones we can fix,
The lessons we'll learn.
You mean more.
You mean more.
You mean more.
I hate to break it to you but,
You're just a lonely star
I try to bring you down but
Our level isn't good enough
You always do as you please so,
I'm going to follow suit and take a seat
Watch you fall apart
Cause in the end, what are you without me?
I'll slow this down, cause I know that you can't keep
Oh maybe I, maybe I was wrong from the start
I might be proud but at least I'm proud of something
You've taken pride in becoming nothing.
You keep me on the edge of my seat,
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me,
I wanna hate every part of you in me,
I can't hate the ones who made me
You keep me on the edge of my seat,
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me,
I wanna hate every part of you in me,
I can't hate the ones who made me
I'm married to the music
For better or for worse
You say that I'm privileged, but my gift is my curse
I can't recall the last time, someone asked me how I was
The last I checked, I was a fucking wreck, I called for
help and no-one showed up
So I'll sit in the dirt.
You keep me on the edge of my seat,
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me,
I wanna hate every part of you in me,
I can't hate the ones who made me
You keep me on the edge of my seat,
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me,
I wanna hate every part of you in me,
I can't hate the ones who made me
Just forget what you've learned
Just forget what you've heard
The truth should come first, I can't bear the sight of
you anymore
You've become what I hate, sold yourself for a bit of
fame
Now the wolves have closed their doors,
Wanna drag me down some more?
FUCK YOU.
FUCK YOU.
You keep me on the edge of my seat,
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me,
I wanna hate every part of you in me,
I can't hate the ones who made me
You keep me on the edge of my seat,
I bite my tongue so you don't hear me,
I wanna hate every part of you in me,
If it hurts this much then it must be love
And it's a lottery, I can't wait to draw your name
Oh, I'm trying to get to you but time isn't on my side
If the truth's the worst I can do then I guess that I have lied
Keeping me awake, it's been like this now for days
My heart is out at sea, my head all over the place
I'm losing sense of time and everything tastes the same
I'll be home in a day, I fear that's a month too late
That night I slept on your side of the bed
So it was ready when you got home
We're like noughts and crosses
In that opposites always attract
You've taken me to the top and let me fall back south
You've had me at the top of the pile and then had me kissing the ground
We've heard and seen it all, no one's talked us out
The problems that have come haven't yet torn us down
Am I keeping you awake? If I am then just say
You can make your own decisions, you can make your own mistakes
I'll live and let die all the promises you made
But if you lie another time it'll be a lie that's too late
That night I slept on your side of the bed
So it was ready when you got home
We're like noughts and crosses
In that opposites always attract
You always have your way
For now it's too soon for you to say will we be always, always
You always have your way
For now it's too soon for you to say will we be always, always
You always have your way
For now it's too soon for you to say will we be always, always
You always have your way
For now it's too soon for you to say will we be always, always, always
You always have your way
For now it's too soon for you to say will we be always, always
You've had your way, you've had your way
You've had your way
if this is the end
and these white coats and this medicine
is my new comfort zone
and my new best friend.
shall we cue the violins
cause this life is made of violence
sixteen, he's already on his way
next victim, the clouds and the pearly gates
when the room goes quiet
nobody knows
and it's all your fault
and it's all your fault
wish that I was younger
wish that I was smart enough
to keep my composure
keep my head straight
oh you can be my headache
and i'll make your name famous
you say,
showing you just how cool he is
the powders could be the catalyst
when the room goes quiet
nobody knows what to say
and the room goes quiet
and they don't (and it,s all your fault)
and it,s all your fault
When the room goes quiet
nobody knows what to say
this is the part when we say what a shame
this is the part where we shoulder all the blame
my friends owe it to themselves
to get a grip and cherish their good health
don't want the room to go quiet
and have to think of things to say
when the room goes quiet (goes quiet)
and the room goes
and it's all your fault
Handle bars,
never let go, let go, for anyone.
Take me in,
throw out my heart and get a new one.
Next thing, we're touching.
You look at me it's like you hit me with lightening, lightening.
Oh, and everybody's starry eyed.
And everybody goes, oh.
Everbody's starry eyed.
And my body goes...
So we burst into colours, colours and caracels.
Fall head first, like paper planes and playground games.
Next thing, we're touching.
You look at me it's like you hit me with lightening.
Oh, everybody's starry eyed,
and everybody goes, oh.
Everbody's starry eyed.
And my body goes, whoa, oh, oh,
everybody's starry eyed.
And everybody goes, everbody's starry eyed.
And my body goes, oh.
Next thing, we're touching.
Next thing, we're touching.
Next thing, we're touching.
Oh, everybody's starry eyed.
And everybody goes, oh, and everbody's starry eyed.
My body goes, whoa oh,
and everybody's starry eyed.
And everybody goes, oh, and everbody's starry eyed.
Woah woah woah woah woahoah,
Woah woah oh woah woah,
Woah woah woah woah woahoah,
Woah woahoahow.
You've been looking at me like you've got something to say,
You got flaws in your step you're miles away from anything,
a-a-a-anyway.
Lets get to the point,
The words that fell from your lips,
Didn't mean anything; they didn't mean shit, to you or him.
But tonight, but tonight, we will be alright;
Yes the champagne is on ice for you and I.
And tonight, and tonight,
We will be alright,
Coz we got it all, and all what's left inside,
Let's just keep on talking.
I smell your scent on my skin and the clothes that I wear,
It's a thought in my head and I can't shake it,
Of you and him.
Sh-sh-sh-shake it,
I am at the party too,

With my back to the door and you was on the floor,
And you look desperate.
But tonight, but tonight, We will be alright;
Yes the champagne is on ice for you and I.
And tonight, and tonight,
We will be alright,
Coz we got it all, and all what's left inside
Let's just keep on talking.
And don't let me down, and don't let me down,
And don't let me down, and don't let me down,
And don't let me down.
But tonight, but tonight, we will be alright;
Yes the champagne is on ice for you and I.
And tonight, and tonight,
We will be alright,
Coz we got it all, and all what's left inside
Let's just keep on talking.
Woah woah woah woah woahoah,
It's worse, worse than you think,
If truth be told,
I'll tell you that you're lovesick,
I am sweet, so everybody takes a bite,
Dig in, I'm the catalyst of your demise.
Words are cheap so I'll sell you a line,
Like the way you acted that night,
Second best, is what, what you want then,
It won't cost that much, but me.
I've got you hanging on every word I say,
But that don't mean a thing,
And you love the way I take your breath away,
So I'll take your breath away.
Have you had, had your day?
Move close, and I'll push you away.
Play it safe,
For the sake of keeping some face,
Play it safe,
In the name of keeping your place.
Do what, what I tell you to,
With arms we'll carry this through,
Can't wait, can't wait to see you.
I've got you hanging on every word I say,
But that don't mean a thing,
And you love the way I take your breath away,
So I'll take, take, take.
Oh I only have eyes for you,
And it's so true.
Oh I only have eyes for you,
It's the truth, it's the truth.
So true.
So true.
So true.
So true.
And I only have eyes for you,
And I only have eyes for you.
I've got you hanging on every word I say,
But that don't mean a thing,
And you love the way I take your breath away,
So I'll take, take, take.
Oh I only have eyes for you,
And it's so true.
Oh I only have eyes for you,
It's the truth, it's the truth.
All those dirty words that you said, did you mean them? Did you now?
You're biting at the hand that feeds you like a stray for some scraps
And everybody you once knew has turned their backs
And everyone you once loved has sold you out
And everyone I know, they faked it from the word go
And I need to know why
That everyone I love has been swimming with the sharks
And I don't know why
Does defeat leave a taste in your mouth
One that you could live without?
And everyone that you once knew has turned their backs
And everyone that you once loved has sold you out
And everyone I know, they faked it from the word go
And I need to know why
That everyone I love has been swimming with the sharks
And I don't know why
Why do you try to let go of someone that you love?
So how does it feel? How does it feel?
How do you? How do you?
So does it feel? How does it feel?
How do you? How do you?
