I'm a social disaster, I'm like a nuclear reactor
Walking around with fire in my mouth
Ready to spit it all out, So don't get in my way
'Cause sometimes I don't shoot real straight
And I wouldn't want to fire on you
If you're ok
Are you ok? I'm ok
Are you ok? I'm ok
I'm a misfit Sitting in a corner trying
To sort out everybody's shit
I look and there's no empty plates
So I turn and chuck it in the nearest face
So if it doesn't belong to you
Get out of the way I wouldn't
Want to fire on you
Tell me that it's okay
to wanna be more than I am
you see im just a junkie
for the world to see
how bad i've been
and what if it's just right to me now
it doesn't take a lot to figure out
what in the world am i supposed to know by now
even if it's all erased
and im never gunna be saved
i want it blaring out in front of me
tell you why its okay to be this way
ill try to explain
you say its just a bad phase
that i must be in
and your wrong again
what if its the way i wanna stay
shouldn't take the bullshit out of me
what in the world am i supposed to try and be
even if it's all erased
and im never gunna be saved
i want it blaring out in front of me
even if it's all a waste
im never gunna walk beside
i want it blaring out in front of me
its better than tv
more than anyone can take away
it'll never be the same for me
it isn't just a phase im in
its better than a big screen
more than anyone can explain
itll never be the same
this is more than just a game
and what if it's just right to me now
it doesn't take a lot to figure out
what in the world am i supposed to know by now
even it's all a waste
and im never gonna be saved
i want it blaring out in front of me
even it's all a waste
and im never gonna be saved
i want it blaring out in front of me
i want it blaring out in front of me
Leave me the mess I’m in, this is the best that I’ve been,
Give me a wish an’ I’d do it all again.
Funny the way this is, everyday in pieces,
Never the same as you would expect it.
Beautiful obscene,
Just like you,
Just like me,
The world we’re in.
Beautiful obscene,
Just like you,
Just like everything.
Crazy to think this has always been short of answers,
Stuck in a place, in this situation.
Beautiful obscene,
Just like you,
Just like me,
The world we’re in.
Beautiful obscene,
Just like you,
Just like everything.
I wouldn’t take back a single day, I wouldn’t try to change a thing.
Leave all of it the same way, just like this to me.
I wouldn’t take back a single day
See me, the mess I’m in? This is the best that I’ve been,
Give me a wish an’ I’d do it all again.
Beautiful obscene,
Just like you,
Just like me,
The world we’re in.
Beautiful obscene,
Just like you,
Just like every single thing.
Obscene,
Just like you,
Just like me,
The world we’re in.
Beautiful obscene,
Just like you,
Just like everything.
I wouldn’t take back a single day, I wouldn’t try to change a thing.
Leave all of it the same way, just like this to me.
I want to Stay and wake up in your room
Like I use too.
What do you say?
I just want to make it all up to you.
I never Meant to chase you away,
Can we take an hour and make up in the shower,
and I won't say anything.
Just let me wake beside you like i used too
I don't want it to be the end.
Chorus
You'd be my own addiction
I need more of you everyday
You make the situation,Tempt me in every way.
I want to talk and wake up the whole floor with the music on
Whatever you want.
I just need to know what I did wrong,
I never wanna give you up.
Maybe we can stay in for the weekend
and I won't try anything,
But i can never stay as your ex girlfriend
I don't want it to be the end.
Chorus
You'd be my own addiction
I need more of you everyday
You make the situation,Tempt me in every way
I know you have me addicted, to stuff
You gave me too much,
Now I know it's not that easy giving up
I can't get enough,
Now i know it won't be easy
I can't give it up.
My own Addiction 4x
I know you have me addicted, to stuff
You gave me too much
Now I know it's not that easy giving up
I can't get enough
You can be so damn Addictive
Like a drug i need more of
Now I know it won't be easy
I can't give it up
My own Addiction 4x
Wish you could see yourself as I do,
Beautiful and more
We all had a heavenly time with you before
Missing you now the world is in mourning just standing still
We all had a reason to wish you well
And I can't believe your gone,
Maybe just moved down to the city
And it makes no sense at all
Just makes no sense to me
Can it be we are all temporarily visiting
Can I stay while all the world is falling in on me
Now all I have are questions and one big mess inside my head
Is this it are we just temporary visitors?
Try to believe this is all for good reason if I can
Still I'm here trying to comprehend
Another day done lost without meaning now you're gone
I'm left here waiting to understand
And I don't know how it all works maybe it's just like the movies
Where no one ever really gets hurt
It sounds like shit to me
Can it be we are all temporarily visiting
Can I stay while all the world is falling in on me
Now all I have are questions and one big mess inside my head
Seems like I've known you all my life
In an unknown sort of way
Like we're on the same road
but different sides
And you're calling out my name
I've never met you but I won't forget
The dream of your voice
wrapped around my head
I've never felt your touch
but I know it's strong
With a world of people in between
yours is the only one
Eventually your shouts
became a whisper of wind
That I couldn't hear for anything
And you, unseen are as my King
Touch my tenderness
like a feather on my skin
Ok I admit it I'd like to spend
some time with you in person
Would that be ok with you
Alright here I am
What are you going to do
I think I'll stop and sit instead
of following your shadow
Maybe you'll go round the block
and stop you never know
If you did I don't know what I'd say to you
I don't mind if I turn people on, but
I don't really care if I turn them off, because
Being me, was never enough to please, everyone
Do I confuse others with the way I appear am
I confronting them with something they don't want to hear
They see me and in their minds they try and put me in a box but,
Well I never really liked things with labels on the top
I'm not following orders, and I won't stand against a wall
So you can shake me down, where I don't like it at all
When it's what's inside that makes the difference so you
Should take a look before you make your judgements
It doesn't really mean to me, what it means to you the way
I look is just that; something you can see through
So if I confuse you with what I say maybe that's just the
Way you deal with the unexplained
And I'm not making statements, or setting any trends
And this isn't where the shocking's gonna start or end
So if I'm upsetting you, maybe you should leave
I don't know you anymore
And all the rules we set
For whatever this is
I wanna break them all like you did
I'm on dangerous ground right now
And all the guys I've missed
For whatever this is
The truth is I loved you more
Why should I give this
Another day, Another week
I know you don't mean it
All the things you said to me
I'm crazy to believe you again
Don't even try
Don't try to explain
What a fool I can be sometimes
Taking all you lies
I am kicking myself
I should've seen the way it would end up
Its to late to be sorry now
For us to try and work things out
I am Kicking myself
I should've known you'll let me down
Why should I give this
Another day, Another week
I know you don't mean it
All the things you said to me
I'm crazy to believe you again
Don't even try
Don't try to explain
What made you so sure
That you wouldn't be caught by now
I don't know what you thought
I'd want you around
Don't come to close to soon
Don't know what to say to you
If it's true, It didn't mean a thing
Why should I give this
Another day, Another week
I know you don't mean it
All the things you said to me
I'm crazy to believe you again
Don't even try
Don't try to explain
I don't know you anymore
And all the rules we set
For whatever this is
I wanna break them all like you did
I'm on dangerous ground right now
And all the guys I've missed
For whatever this is
The truth is I loved you more
I've been staring in a trance under a wet blanket
Touching myself to keep warm
Bouncing sounds across the walls,
I'm insane and completely ignored
I've been writing songs with silent words
Swallowing sounds that scrape and burn
Measuring time by the curtains crack
I've been to the edge and I've come back
It's black and I forget
Out cold in a suit of sweat
Lost in someone elses day,
I dream of death and smell decay
I've been starving in a dress,
Recieving less and needing more
No sight, no sound, no taste, no touch
I'm not getting enough stimulation
Like censored masturbation
It's never like the real thing,
Like swimming in a sinking dream
I think I'll start over again
It's black and I forget
Out cold in a suit of sweat
Lost in someone elses day
I dream of me and smell decay
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
I've been lying in a ditch
With rolling eyes and a nervous twitch
And it goes down to my knees,
Eyes that run, teeth chattering
I'm trying to sing, I bleed,
I've got a knife inside
I'll give you all I've got left
'Cause I don't have much to hide
Don't have much to hide
Don't have much to hide
It's black and I forget
Out cold in a suit of sweat
I dream of death and smell decay
You roll around me
like a silent wave
You touch my soul
and make me crave you all over
You share the secret
sounds I make
you build a love that
fills a void
You make my body shake
You play that music
that makes me wanna sing
You shape my mind, you draw a picture
you're my friend
You understand the waves in my head
that never crash and never end
Make it begin
Let me ride you
let me find you there
where the oceans touch the land
The centre is space not time
I saw a letter it was written in your handwriting but it wasn't for me
Saying you'll miss everyone when you're gone leaving the country
I pretended not to know and you just pretend
See how long you can keep up my hopes before it all ends
You're so cruel to me
The first time we really went out together I was so excited
Until you turned up with one of your mates
and it was just another night then
You told him you were going away for a year
You couldn't even say it to my face you didn't even care
You're so cruel to me, I forgive you so easily
even though you're mean, I forgive you so easily
I laughed when you were leaving
so you'd remember me that way
Then I found a little hole to hide in
and I cried for a year and a day
It's really good to see you, I'd love to touch you too
I know things have changed
and you keep away
but can't I say I miss you
You're so cruel to me, I forgive you so easily
I’ll stay away
Don’t have to face this
It’s my mistake
And noone’s business
I am trying not to want to hurt him, trying not to start this up again
He’s in my way
And no surprises
It’s been a day
Somehow I survived it
Still I’m trying not to want to hurt him, trying not to start this up again
It’s the last thing that I need right now
Someone to bring me down
I’ve got a rule I made up now, we moved out
No way, no boys aloud
There’s a reason why I keep my distance
Don’t think you’re gunna understand
This is the last I need right now
No need to stay
My choice I made it
I keep away
Don’t have to take it
Cuz I’m trying not to want to hurt him trying not to start this up again
It’s the last thing that I need right now
Someone to bring me down
I’ve got a rule I made up now, we moved out
No way, no boys aloud
There’s a reason why I keep my distance
Don’t think you’re gunna understand
This is the last I need right now
Don’t need a boyfriend
Not one like him
Don’t wanna be the foolish girl I was, and in the births again
You can say it’s from me
Ill be keeping the way
I don’t want to be the same foolish girl again
Ill stay away don’t have to face this
It’s my mistake and noone’s business
I am trying not to want to hurt him, trying not to start this up again
It’s the last thing that I need right now
Someone to bring me down
I’ve got a rule I made up now, we moved out
No way, no boys aloud
There’s a reason why I keep my distance
Don’t think you’re gunna understand
Under a fence I crawl, Dig up all your vegetables
Creep into your house at night
Wipe my feet on the rug that you like
I'm canine - and I am, I'm feeling fine
I'm animal - and it's payback time
I'm your alarm clock, and when it's still dark
I get you up, And the noises in the night
You hear that's me drinking all your beer
I'm canine - and I am, I'm feeling fine
I'm animal - and it's payback time
You know the reason your friends don't come round anymore
That's because I don't let them near the door
And you wonder why your boyfriend never comes
That's because I ate one of his thumbs
I'm canine - and I am, I'm feeling fine
I'm animal - and it's payback time
You know those phone calls
With the panting and the very low growls, That's for all the times that you
You locked me out of the house
I'm canine - and I am, I'm feeling fine
I'm animal - and it's payback time
You know that reocurring gift on the doorstep,
I hope that you really like it, It, took me such a long time to create it.
That's my excrement.
I'm canine - and I am, I'm feeling fine
With all the stuff that's on my plate
sometimes I can't get a smile to come to my face
and with all the shit thats going on now
I can't even sit up straight
I can't even look around
where do you get off
waiting for the future
as if alreadys not enough
and where do you stop
if you cant stop here
then the truth is too much
you don't see me
you don't hear me
I can work it out
without your near me
come help me
you're just leaving
turn it all around
on to me
I'm not sleeping
I'm not eating
I can do without this feeling
I wonder what side of the world I've been in
treated like a baby
in the arms of stupid men
and to other people
who had the chance to warm me
if you walked way
you were just leaving me falling
where do you get off
waiting for the future
as if alreadys not enough
and where do you stop
if you cant stop here
then the truth is too much
you don't see me
you don't hear me
I can work it out
without your near me
come help me
you're just leaving
turn it all around
on to me
I'm not sleeping
I'm not eating
I can do without this feeling
when everything is said before
you can be a stranger
when I needed something more
and instead of every space between us
savour every moment as if it was unlost
where do you get off
waiting for the future
as if alreadys not enough
and where do you stop
if you cant stop here
then the truth is too much
you don't see me
you don't hear me
I can work it out
without your near me
come help me
you're just leaving
turn it all around
on to me
I'm not sleeping
I'm not eating
I can do without this feeling
I don't need it
don't believe it
I've been trying to tell you that I don't know what I want,
Still you expect answers by tomorrow
And I can't give you that just more confusion and sorrow.
I didn't want to do that, So I keep it all under my hat
And in my head, You know I bit my tongue so hard sometimes it bled.
Still you insist, truth dare or kiss
It's all dangerous, But if you insist, I'll take the risk
And dive in it
I'm like a person in a heatwave,
And you are the water that I crave, I really want you inside me
But you just swim around me like the sea
Does that salt in your mouth help to digest me
Is it like sterilising something dirty,
Well, if I 'm that hard to bear, then, Why don't you stop putting me in there
A hundred thousand fireflies light up before me
And if I turn my head on to the side they become my ceiling and
The floor is slippery, but I'm not scared
Because I dance with my guitar when my feet are bare
And the lights are so bright and so unreal
And my fingers are bleeding but I can't feel them
If you think that I'm quiet you don't read my eyes
Because I've got a lot to say and most of the time
(Chorus:)
I go off - and if you don't believe that
I'll go off - right here, right now
I go off - and if you don't believe that
I go off - you're not listening very hard
It's hot and smoky a lot of the time
And I bus it or thumb it and I plane or drive
Sometimes there's roses and sometimes there's coins
But, well I never really notice for the sound of my voice
(Chorus)
On the back of a motorbike and it's raining hard
And I'm strapped to a man on one side and to my guitar
I have to fight the bouncer when I get to my destination
Because he doesn't recocgnise me from my promotion
So I say 'hey, is that my problem
You should really get together man.
I've got a room full of people
Waiting for me again.'
(Chorus)
My imagination is a party and I invite you
And I'm a good hostess so I won't bite you
I really like it here
It's such a thrill
And I think fireflies are really cool.
You played me like a puppet
Pretend I don't have any time to waste
You said you'd keep me from the sharks
But you kept me for a private feast
You said you don't believe in one night stands
So you fuck me over whenever you can
You told me to follow a formula for success
But I don't want to be the same as everyone else is
So I'll do it on my own
I'm shaking you off
I'm sick of having you in my face so
Get yourself lost
Thanks for wasting my time and energy
Thankyou so much, it couldn't have been me
Thanks for wasting my breath and creativity
I think you've wasted
more than enough of me
You said you'd never do wrong
by me or take me for a ride
You said with then sincerity of a well practiced lie
I told you that I would do the very best that I can
Well at least one of us kept to the original plan
You managed alright to stress me out
To fill my head with shit and serious doubt
I think that I'm really doing alright
my pa my pa is like a freak in the town
I cannot look him in the face
it's like a bad hand and I take a hand
my ma my ma I did not know her so well
but like the story books tell she was a strange one
as soon as I could read I lose who I am
my folks you know are like a travelling
show an animal and a freak
You're taking flowers from my gravestone,
I can feel your heavy feet pressing on my bones,
Like you always did,
Walk too heavy around me, I used to think you didn't give a shit
Now I know you saved it all up just for me,
I play with words when you come by,
Because you always played at games I don't like,
I'm a really strong woman, With no reception,
I'm a really good girl, Just in a bad direction,
I think I followed you around too much
I think I really should have looked down,
When I looked up, At you, with your strange expressions
And lights of attitude dimmer than your erection,
Yes, I remember it well, I know I shouldn't but,
What the hell, It's just a dick and so are you,
Would you like a cup of coffee
Do you take sugar, do you like really strong or diluted by my laughter
Would you like a little bikkie to dip in until it goes all soggy at the ends
Or am I suffiently sloppy, come on sit yourself here by me again
I'll be so happy in your company
We can talk about the weather or whatever
Makes you comfortable enough to stay around
We can talk about politics or the irregularity of sound
We can talk about football or some other mindless bullshit chat
I'll tell you how I sucked my thumb
And you'll probably really laugh at that
But anyway I'll really enjoy talking to you - I really do
Can I get something, would you like some toast
Maybe we could share a little piece of it between us both
We could have it in the shower
But we'd have to take our clothes off
Maybe our thoughts could be the bubbles
And my hands could be the cup
And you will fill me up
So much for staying out of trouble, if I have to keep away from you.
It doesn't seem like I'm dealing with a criminal,
I don't feel like I need to be rescued,
I'm not captive, it isn't world news.
I'm not a hostage just because I'm with you.
Problem is, that it should've been a big secret,
But I knew we couldn't keep it.
Everybody else says this will be too dangerous for me,
What a lot of useless garbage I don't need,
I'll take a chance and see.
And it's definitely started up something you needed,
Just like me,
And I want it to be serious,
So there won't be anyone but you from now on.
Anybody else's dumb opinion.
So much for trying to keep it simple and between us,
Without a big fuss.
It doesn't seem like I'm harbouring a criminal intention,
Just a bad crush.
It's not a front page, a news headline,
I'm not endangered just because I'm here tonight.
Problem is, that it should've been a big secret,
But I knew we couldn't keep it.
Everybody else says this will be too dangerous for me,
What a lot of useless garbage I don't need,
I'll take a chance and see.
And it's definitely started up something you needed,
Just like me,
And I want it to be serious,
So there won't be anyone but you from now on.
Anybody else's dumb opinion
Why don't they just leave us alone,
With all the guilty thoughts we call our own?
Why don't they just leave us alone?
Everybody else says this will be too dangerous for me,
What a lot of useless garbage I don't need,
I'll take a chance and see.
And it's definitely started up something you needed,
Just like me,
And I want it to be serious,
So there won't be anyone but you from now on.
All we wanna do, all we wanna do
All we wanna do, all we wanna do
Just a little lovin' before I go
Just a little lovin' before I go
Baby, hold my hand, I wanna love you some more

Walk down the street, knock me out
Upset my head, make me shout

Just a little lovin' before I go
(All we wanna do, all we wanna do, all we wanna do, all we wanna do)
Just a little lovin', yes, before I go
(All we wanna do, all we wanna do, all we wanna do, all we wanna do)
Baby, hold my hand, I wanna love you some more
(All we wanna do, all we wanna do, all we wanna do, all we wanna do)
All we wanna do, all we wanna do
All we wanna do, all we wanna do
All we wanna do, all we wanna do
Woo, the joint was a jumpin' on the corner
Down on a honky tonk street
When all of a sudden up drove a Cadillac
And out stepped a cat named Pete
Diamonds on a every finger
Wore the tailor made suit
He smoked a black cigar
He wore a stetson hat, he wore a pair of cowboy boots
He busted on through the doorway
Bad as a he can be
Pulled out his pistol, he turned around
He said, 'my name is a big boy Pete'
The music stopped, there wasn't a sound
Over in a corner stood a bad man Brown
Brown smiled and grinned, he said
My friend, come three steps farther and I'll a do you in
Now, Pete, said, a look a here, buddy
Before I tan your hide
I got a forty five that keeps me alive
And seven bullets on my side
Brown pulled a knife, he jumped on Pete
They fought from the counter, right a, out to the street
They swung from north, they swung from south
Brown, cut that black cigar right outta Pete's mouth
Brown slipped around behind boy Pete
Cut him from his head, right on down to his feet
Pete hit the ground, he yelled and screamed
Pete took his stetson hat an beat the scene
Now, if you ever down on the corner
Down on a honky tonk street
Don't mess with Brown, he'll cut you down
Woo, the joint was a jumpin' on the corner
Down on a honky tonk street
When all of a sudden up drove a Cadillac
And out stepped a cat named Pete
Diamonds on a every finger
Wore the tailor made suit
He smoked a black cigar
He wore a stetson hat, he wore a pair of cowboy boots
He busted on through the doorway
Bad as a he can be
Pulled out his pistol, he turned around
He said, 'my name is a big boy Pete'
The music stopped, there wasn't a sound
