Her December is a mood swing
An afternoon frost meant just for me
Her December is a change of pace
An extraordinary leap from sunray to snowflake
[Chorus:]
Her December means I'll be alone in the morning
Her December is a look so cold
It leaves me defenseless
Shoots my story full of holes
Her December is a long night
With one eye open
Thinkin' of a better lie
[Chorus]
Her December is the last clue
That she will never give me another June
Send up a smile for me, baby
I say to the rising flame
A dynamic woe blows in with the cold
And brings back the loneliness again
Your voice, it haunts my nature
With the words that I used to make you bleed
With one hand and my imagination
I thought I'd never need for anything
But my spaceship crashed against the wall
My neighbour's grass ain't so green after all
I wouldn't have a second thought about the fall
But I'm wondering who will love me in winter
Delusions of grandeur
Misled my adventurous spirit
Love of the unknown rose like a stone
Above my contentment
The autumn leaves fall from the trees
And hold me captive with a dance in the air
And I know with the passing of these
I must find love from somewhere
Spaceship crashed against the wall
My neighbour's grass ain't so green after all
I wouldn't have a second thought about the fall
But I'm wondering who will love me in winter
I wouldn't have a thought about the fall
But I'm wondering who will love me in winter
Spaceship crashed against the wall
My neighbour's grass ain't so green after all
I wouldn't have a second thought about the fall
But I'm wondering who will love me in winter
Spaceship crashed against the wall
My neighbour's grass ain't so green after all
I wouldn't have a second thought about the fall
She sleeps with the moonlight under her head
And the stars to keep her warm
Far from the noise and the world below
She comes to me in my dreams like a love song
And I awake only to hear her go
Somewhere along the way I lost the melody
And I don't want the birds to sing, sing it to me
'Cause I love to hate the feeling
Don't wanna deal with the morning after
What can I say to keep it down?
What can I say to keep it down?
What can I say to keep your love around me?
She walks with me on frozen stone, ever so lightly
And I pray to hear what she'll say
She turns to me with her face all aglow
And it's overwhelming
And I awake to a brand new day
Somewhere along the way I lost all of my hope
And I don't want the brand new day to bring it to my window
'Cause I love to hate the feeling
Don't wanna deal with the morning after
What can I say to keep it down?
What can I say to keep it down?
What can I say to keep your love around me?
Around me
Around me
Around me
Somewhere along the way I lost the melody
And I don't want the birds to sing, sing it to me
'Cause I love to hate the feeling
Don't wanna deal with the morning after
Love to hate the feeling
Don't wanna deal with the morning after
Love to hate the feeling
Don't wanna deal with the morning after
What can I say to keep it down?
What can I say to keep it down?
What can I say to keep your love around?
What can I say to keep it down?
Ooh, I'm, ooh, I'm so scared
People outside, people outside make me scared
So, I stay in my room, in my underwear
When I, when I long for company
I pop in my, pop in my pornography
'Cause that's real love, real love made for TV
Shoot to thrill you, baby
Shoot to thrill you, baby
Everyone loves a stranger
Nobody wants the danger
That's why I turn my TV on
I turn my TV on, I turn my TV on
I just turn my TV on, I turn my TV on
I turn my TV on, turn my TV on
Ooh, I, ooh, I hate drama
People outside, people outside, they love drama
Raining down bombs on English summers
When I long to feel a part of it
I tune in my favorite channel 36
Travel 'round the world in less than 30 minutes
Shoot to kill you, baby
Shoot to kill you, baby
Turn my TV on
When it's cold outside, turn my TV on
Turn my TV on
All my troubles go
Everyone loves a stranger
Nobody wants the danger
That's why I turn my TV on
I turn my TV on, I turn my TV on
I just turn my TV on, I turn my TV on
I turn my TV on, turn my TV on
Baby, I'd love to see you
But the maneuver is just too risky in the rain
Is this my rescue boat?
I've been out here 5 days
Somebody bring me some water
I just need some water
Like most things
A good time looks better from a distance
What do you mean, baby?
I'm making friends in the new world
I'm a celebrity on the message boards
I meet people every day
Yesterday and tomorrow
New born baby, no more sorrow
I feel the charge of shooting stars when I'm near you
Cosmic rays shoot through my body while we play
I'm forever changed when I'm all alone with you
[Chorus:]
I'll never get over the thrill of this love
I'll never get over the thrill of this love
I'll never get over the thrill of this love
I'll never get over the thrill of this love
I felt the shock, my heart stopped... when I saw you
I heard the screams of a new reckoning,
From the edge of the bed
And I'm moved when you try to do the things I do
And I can't get enough
I just can't get enough
[Chorus]
Shout it out, I'm so proud I can see myself in your love
Shout it out! Shout it out
Don't know how we ever made it this far without you around
Shout it out! Shout it out
Shout it out, I'm so proud I can see myself in your love
Shout it out! Shout it out
Don't know how we ever made it this far without you around
I can't get enough
I hear the calamity of young ideas
Gatherin' around the edge of my ears
And we?re waitin? for the bell to end the afternoon
And usher in the evening, yeah
The night is young
We?ve only just begun
Grab a friend, jump on in
Run from the end till it comes
The mirror has changed my shape
Tomorrow used to be so kind and so far away
Now it?s clear when I touch my face
The unmistakable feel of slippin? away
The night is young
We?ve only just begun
Grab a friend, jump on in
Run from the end till it comes
My past is bigger and brighter than my future
But the struggle is all the same
I fight to mean somethin? in this life I live
The end comes but the [Incomprehensible]
Don?t they know I?m still here
Pushin? against the atmosphere
The best of things haven?t been shared yet
It just can?t be over yet, over yet
(Can they hear me screamin??)
The night is young
We?ve only just begun
(Can they hear me screamin??)
Grab a friend, jump on in
Run from the end till it comes
(Hear me screamin?)
The night is young
We?ve only just begun
(Hear me screamin?)
Grab a friend, jump on in
The first sign of weakness
Was when you walked by and I undressed
You only with my mind
But still a sign of trouble
The last gasp of greatness
Came when I knew I'd trade everything for this
Throw diamonds at your feet
Crawl on my hands and knees
The lowest 1 of my desires
Is the only one I need
The lowest 1 of my desires
Stays with me until it's pleased
I wanna fuck you, baby
I wanna touch and rub all over you, baby
The dying light in the east
Gives rise to my least
Now all the lines are blurred
You've got all power
The lowest 1 of my desires
Is the only one I need
The lowest 1 of my desires
Stays with me until it's pleased
I wanna fuck you good, baby
I wanna love like we never, ever should, baby
Jump on the ground and wrestle with my shame
Because I don't wanna hide behind anything
Now that I see the subtleties
Ends justify the means in seasons of need
I wanna fuck you, baby
I wanna climb inside and breathe with you, baby
I wanna fuck you, baby
Ooh, girl it is what you say between
A phrase
It’s written on your face
It’s rain against a windowpane
The sound it makes
It’s dreamin’ the day away
It’s the shine of a precious pearl
Light of the world
It’s the smile of our baby girl
It’s finding a moment for a thought
So pure
It’s a walk along the shore
I hold on to the feeling
I don’t know when I will feel it again
I’ve become amused by the
Little things
Seconds of pleasure
[Chorus x2]
Seconds of pleasure
Life’s little treasures
Ooh, girl, it’s small talk
A touch so soft
It’s watching you walk
It’s the taste of a sour pop-
A lemon drop
It’s the last one in the box
It’s a kiss in the morning sun
A few minutes of fun
Before you have to run
It’s all of the little things that
You’ve done
To ease my burden and my confusion
I hold on to the feeling
I don’t know when I will feel it again
I’ve become amused by the
Little things
Seconds of pleasure
[Chorus x4]
Seconds of pleasure
Whether she be priest or police, the first one on the scene is a thief
I won't believe a word she says
She won't have your smile.
We can hang for a while, but I know I miss you just the same
E-rot-ic conversation is no substitute for what you do
Or what I lose when I'm without you
It's easy to hold back temptation.
My night's getting longer, I'm getting stronger and stronger
Baby don't you worry!
So I returned the gifts she gave, and upset the night's happiness
But it's best... I don't want to lead her on
I'd much rather be here, with my tears
Waiting on your return
E-rot-ic conversation is no substitute for what you do
Or what I lose when I'm without you
It's easy to hold back temptation.
My night's getting longer, I'm getting stronger and stronger
Baby don't you worry!
Girl there's no pressure, I'm happy when we're together
I'll be here waiting for you
I'm in no hurry, girl now don't you worry
I'll be here waiting for you
If she's sweeter than usual, I'll say a po-lite no
Then I'll turn to go home
Satisfy me in everyway, you're a different girl everyday
You suit my tastes, and you're all I need to know
E-rot-ic conversation is no substitute for what you do
Or what I lose when I'm without you
It's easy to hold back temptation.
My night's getting longer, I'm getting stronger and stronger
Baby don't you worry!
Girl there's no pressure, I'm happy when we're together
I'll be here waiting for you
I'm in no hurry, girl now don't you worry
Tonight you have no worries with me here
My time, my time is as free as your tears
Let them rise with the wind and fall on me tonight
You have no worries, no worries tonight
Remember the woman who locked herself into a lonely room
'Cause she, she thought that she had no one
To make her feel like nothing less than a precious jewel
But you know that you are precious as the morning sun
You know that you are precious as the deep blue sea
Baby, you know you're the one most precious to me
You, you are the one I bet my love on
For my faith, for my faith I have nothing to show
But a wonderful taste in my mouth from loving you, from loving you
Precious as the morning sun
Precious as the deep blue sea
Baby, you know you're the one most precious to me
Precious as the morning sun
Precious as the deep blue sea
Baby, you know you're the one most precious to me
Remember the man who selfishly gave to a chosen few
'Cause he, he thought the world owed him something too
Make him feel like something more than a simple ol' fool
You made me feel precious as the morning sun
You said that I was precious as the deep blue sea
Baby, you know you're the one most precious to me
Precious as the morning sun
Precious as the deep blue sea
Baby, you know you're the one
Precious to me
Precious to me
Precious to me
I've reached the end of my story
I still don't understand the plot
I've reached the end of the line
I can't do nothing but stop
I've reached the end of my glory
And no will forget me not
I've reached the top of my high
Can't do nothing but drop
[Chorus:]
Out of the sky
I'm on my way down
And I see some rising faces
But I'm fallin' much too fast
To tell 'em 'bout the fate that's waitin'
I'm headed straight for the ground
To the place where I used to stay
To suffer the wrath
Crash landing on the runway
What can we scrape together
From all of worn emotions
Handfuls of hate
And the bittersweet devotion
Cause I am pushing cobwebs
And I'm floating into myself.
Who will find me under this mean sleep?
How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain?
How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change?
I had a mean sleep over you
And it hurts coming back to life!
You could burn a thousand days
And I wouldn
You could die a thousand ways
And I'd still love you back to life.
Without a lover to wake me and my loneliness like quicksand,
Who will find me under this mean sleep?
How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain?
How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change?
I had a mean sleep over you
And it hurts coming back to life!
I am lost to the longing
I am molded by the memory.
Had to shut down half my mind
Just to still the space you left behind.
Cause I am moving cobwebs
And I'm floating into myself.
Who will find me under this mean sleep?
How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain?
How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change?
I had a mean sleep over you
Somber girl
You paint your fingernails blue
at the deep end of the pool
Waiting on June
Waiting on the colors to...
Bloom (You're an optimistic girl)
Smiling only inside
Why you so surprised
when summer dies?
Don't you know it will rise and rise again and...
June
There's no mystery surrounding you
You love everything about you
And until then you've got June gloom
Solemn girl
You're like the sound of the notes
as I am playing on my piano
Makes you weep on the snow
and wish the cold would go
Soon ( You're a tragic figure )
Fighting until the end
I'm happy to be your boyfriend
and you're my whirlwind
Blowing in, blowing in...
June
There's no mystery surrounding you
You love everything about you
All the men in her life
They been hung up, poster-ized
Like dead heroes
She done traveled the globe
Leaving their hearts pulverized
From coast to coast
Invited me over for tea
Looking hot and murderous
From head to toe
I took a seat right by the door
With my hand on my gun
Determined to keep my clothes on
She kiss me on my neck
And I feel the fire
... Feel those cameras flashin'
... Feel them hot stage lights
I've been voted best
#1 desire
... the latest passion
It's clear
I'm man of the year
But I won't go near
Them hot stage lights
She's in tears
I'm man of the year
And I won't go near
Them hot stage lights
She can shoot through my window
But, I'm already gone
Cursed and criminal
And, she won't waste her breath
She'll send me a text on the phone
With her thoughts in prose
I don't lover her as much as I glamorize her
Like a centerfold
I don't want her as much as I want to own her
And, then let her go
Today her love, tomorrow the world
Wish I could stay
But, I'm looking for more
Maybe one day
At the end of the tour
I'll stop by-if I'm
Evening fades to a haze
It's been several days without you
I think about you often all the time
And it seems like such a waste of talent being weighed
While time crawls so slow,
It couldn't have love sickness like mine
It hurts to be the one left behind
Give me a sign if you can hear me crying
Send your love back to me
From wherever you are, straight to the hole in my heart
Send your love back to me,
From wherever you are,
Let me know you're never too far,
To hear me calling "baby"
She said, "do you remember me? "
I said, "the face is easy but I don't recall the name"
I'm drinking wine and you're looking better all the time
We're running low on Red Trees?
Take these handcuffs off me please, call me a taxi
Thank you for turning this day into sunshine
And helping me to ease my mind
I always thought you'd be around for a while
Send your love back to me
From wherever you are, straight to the hole in my heart
Send your love back to me,
From wherever you are,
Let me know you're never too far,
To hear me calling "baby"
From wherever you are, send your love straight to my heart
From wherever you are, send your love through the hole in my heart
From wherever you are, send your love straight to my heart
From wherever you are, send your love through the hole in my heart
From wherever you are, send your love straight to my heart
You look at me from every angle, follow my every move
From the bed to the door
And what you see could mean a million things, too early to assume
I'm the one you've been waitin' for
Hold my hand
Something you don't have to understand
For you to do
Hold my hand
C'mon lover, get under my skin
It'll all make sense to you
Day and night, you watch me from your hiding place and won't tell
Anyone else about us
Footsteps in the shadows reveal secrets of a young male
Fresh from love's shell and curious
Hold my
Hold my hand
Something you don't have to understand
For you to do
Hold my hand
C'mon lover, get under my skin
It'll all make sense to you
Love won't sit still long enough for you to take a picture
Of the bitter and the sweet
Roll it up and wonder what it's like to be the victor
Or to taste the defeat
Hold my hand
Something you don't have to understand
For you to do
Hold my hand
C'mon lover, get under my skin
It'll all make sense to you
Ooh lady, why you hidin' from me?
Ooh lady, why you hidin' from me?
[Incomprehensible]
Have to understand
Hold my hand
The only thing you ever wanted to be was a movie star
The only role you ever wanted to play is the person you are, are, are
You made a cameo appearance in the backseat of my mother's car
But I didn't know that it was to be a very small part
And it hit me kind of hard
Baby, did I mean anything to you, did I just play the fool?
In my heart I guess I always knew you had more to prove
Did I mean anything to you, how much acting did you do, tell me?
In my heart I guess I always knew
I'd never be more than one among a few
Highlights, highlights, highlights
A scene from your life
Highlights, highlights, highlights
Just a good time
Old lovers turned critics curse at you on the silver screen
You tell 'em, "I don't give a damn what you say
Long as you're talkin' 'bout me"
All the pretty girls around you cloud your sexuality
We've only been apart for less than a week
But you make leaving me look easy
Did I mean anything to you, did I just play the fool?
In my heart I guess I always knew you had more to prove
Did I mean anything to you, how much acting did you do, tell me?
In my heart I guess I always knew
I'd never be more than one among a few
Highlights, highlights, highlights
A scene from your life
Highlights, highlights, highlights
Just a good time
Hey, hey, hey
Your life
Hey, hey, hey
Good time
Years spent fuckin' your sister for your father's affection
Left you confused and your performance lacks direction
So many unanswered questions
Did I mean anything to you, did I just play the fool?
In my heart I guess I always knew you had more to prove, yes I mean
Did I mean anything to you, how much acting did you do, tell me?
In my heart I guess I always knew
I'd never be more than one among a few
Highlights, highlights, highlights
A scene from your life
Highlights, highlights, highlights
Just a good time
Oh I'm missing you baby
Did I mean anything to you?
Missing you baby, missing you, baby missing you
I'm missing you, oh yeah, you baby, you baby oh yeah
Good time
Missing you, baby
You come and you go
Hello, hello Goodbye
Mmmhmmmm Mhhhmmm Heeeeyy
mmmm Oooooh oooh
[Verse 1]
You won't stay and you won't go.
Love shouldn't be so complicated.
You won't say yes you won't say no.
Your own like's you've contemplated.
Tell me when will you decide
Baby if it's you and I?
Just can't keep me on the side foreva.
You think that our love is strong,
But I just can't keep hanging on.
Whatchu gonna do when tomorrow's gone Foreva, Foreva?
[Chorus]
Keep runnin' in and out of my life.
Hello Goodbye
Hey hey hey hey
[Verse 2]
You don't laugh and you don't cry.
Love can't live without emotion.
You don't reveal and you don't hide.
Wearing your disguise out in the open.
Section B
Tell me when will you decide;
Baby if it's you and I?
Just can't keep me on the side foreva.
You think that our love is strong,
But I just can't keep hanging on.
Whatchu gonna do when tomorrow's gone Foreva, Foreva?
[Chorus]
Runnin' in and out of my life (hello goodbye)
hello goodbye
(oooh oh oh oh)
Keep runnin' in and out of my life Hello Goodbye
[Verse 3]
You're so hot and you're so cold
Love is here and then love leaves.
And you switch so fast,
I dont know if my head can handle the speed.
Tell me when will you decide
Baby if it's you and I?
Just can't keep me on the side foreva.
You think that our love is strong,
But I just can't keep hanging on.
Whatchu gonna do when tomorrow's gone Foreva, Foreva? [x2]
[Chorus]
Runnin' in and out of my life (hello goodbye)
hello goodbye
(oooh oh oh oh)
Keep runnin' in and out of my life Hello Goodbye
[Vamp:]
With loaded eyes she took my arm
Her body was warm as we walked in through the church doors
With loaded eyes she looked in mine
Told me I was the guy
It was what a man does dream for
With eyes like pearls
She's crying precious tears on my shoulder
After I promised her my best
She turned to our guests
And blinded them with her high beams
With eyes like pearls
She's crying precious tears on my shoulder
With eyes like pearls
She's crying precious tears as I hold her
Eyes like pearls
As I hold her
Eyes like pearls
As I thank the preacher I heard
My new bride's wheels brush the curb
She slide over and let me drive
Two miles from the church she shook like California dirt
As I slide my hand on her thighs
Her eyes like pearls
She's crying precious tears
On my shoulder
Her eyes like pearls
She's crying precious tears
As I hold her
As she looks into the sea with a distant longing
Her eyes like pearls
She's crying precious tears
As I hold her
On my shoulder
Eyes like pearls
It'S Just Another Day
Another Episode
Of Hiding Under The World
It'S Just Another Ray
Of Merciful Hope
I Don'T Expect Many More
I'M Already Insane
I'M Already In Pain
And If This Time
You Don'T Rescue Me
I Won'T Blame You At All
Cause You See
I Know That I'Ve Gone
In Too Deep
For You To Risk A Fall
I'M Already Insane(Yes I Am)
I'M Already In Pain (Oh Yes Oh Yes Oh Yes)
I'M Already Insane
[Chorus]
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
Never Thought That
I Would Be The One With The Winning Hand
So You See
It'S No Blow To My Sophistication
That I'Ve Gone Crazy Again
I'M Already Insane(Yes I Am)
I'M Already In Pain(Oh Yes Oh Yes Oh Yes)
I'M Already Insane
[Chorus]
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I'M Already Insane(Insaane Baby)
Already In So Much Pain
Already Insane(Baby)
Yeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhh
[Chorus]
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I Am Dust Blown Away Over The Edge
I'M Already Insane
I'M Already In Pain
I really love it when
I love it when we make mistakes
Because once again
It gives me a reason to complain
I love the battle lines
The battle lines we draw when crossin' the mud
Ooh, I love it when we fight
Standin' on the verge of breakin' up or makin' love
What would I do if we were perfect?
Where would I go for disappointment?
Love without pain would leave me
Wonderin' why I stay?
I think of savin' myself
But with nothin' to complain about up in Heaven
What would I do?
I think of savin' myself
But I really wanna work it out
Down here in Hell with you
Magic carpet ride
It don?t have to last forever
I know we shouldn?t fly so high
But the closer to the sun we go, the better
See, I wanna make you feel the fire
Wanna burn you with my bad days
Ooh, I wanna be unsatisfied
So you can feel the heat comin' from me, baby
What would I do if we were perfect?
Where would I go for disappointment?
Words without hate would leave me nothin' left to say
And I think of savin' myself
But with nothin' to complain about up in Heaven
What would I do?
I think of savin' myself
But I really wanna work it out
Down here in Hell with you
I think of savin' myself
But with nothin' to complain about up in Heaven
I think of savin' myself
But I really wanna work it out
Down here in Hell
Think of savin' myself
But with nothin' to complain about up in Heaven
I think of savin' myself
But I really wanna work it out
Down here in Hell with you
Down here in Hell with you
Down here in Hell with you
Down here in Hell with you
Down here in Hell with you
Down here in Hell with you
A clown's really just a man who
Once dared to make his dreams come true
And make up hides the damage from the crash and burn
When he told her that he loved her
The wind was blowing way to strong that day
The clouds drifted and the trees swayed
Words are the chances that we take
Words [? ] are better left unexplained
You don't know anything
Till you open up your heart
And find that you can't stop bleeding
Til you playing iwth your careds out on the table flying
Flying without wingsn
Your a daredevil baby
Your a daredevil baby
He fell hard in love as he (progressed)?
He looked but she was nowhere to be found
He hoped she'd soon forget
Everything that he had shared
You don't know anything
Till you open up your heart
And find that you can't stop bleeding
Til you playing iwth your careds out on the table flying
Flying without wingsn
You're a daredevil baby
You're a daredevil baby
Girl I want to be a superman
Give me half a chance
Girl I want to be a superman
Give me half a chance
Girl I wanta be a superman
Give me half a chance
Girl I wanna be a super man
Faces have trouble smiling
When it's less than a merry affair
When you communicate through the writing on the wall
There's no love for you there
You wanted to draw a picture
But your relationship could never hold a pose
You're left with a roomful of sketches
That only hint at the love you wanted to know
Let it out, let it go
Hold back the tears no longer
Let them fall on the floor
Not on your will to be stronger
Who are you
In the face of disappointment?
Where is your character
The one who keeps you going?
The one who keeps you going
Caught you by surprise
How time changes people and places
Would you guard over your ruins like you're doing
If you knew your first kiss was your greatest?
Let it out, let it go
Hold back the tears no longer, listen
When you work too hard to get along
Maybe it's time you moved on
Who are you
When heavy weather is blowing?
Where is your character
The one who keeps you going?
Who are you
When heavy weather is blowing?
Where is your character, baby
The one who keeps you going, going?
The one who keeps you going, going
The one who keeps you going, going
Every once-in-awhile,
-you meet a child,
-that drives you wild,
With unmistakable, down-town, style.
Her winter coat,
-and sexy tokes,
-on camel smokes;
Don't prepare you for a laugh that explodes.
A princess, and a mistress,
-dressed in Sunday best,
To impress a fresh-love, interest.
To set the stage,
Receive her praise,
-and leave a sour taste;
That only gets sweeter as it fades.
[Chorus:]
She just can't help: Being a girl,
She just can't help: Being a girl,
She just can't help-her-self,
-full of spectacle and charm like nothing else.
Being a girl...
At the initial glance,
She's making plans;
-to build her a man.
Like a T-4, or an airplane;
-The girl wants a model romance,
Fell in love;
-while taming her;
-new adventurer,
Cause every rebel needs a woman's touch (woman's touch)
The fact is;
She's an actress,
-using the bedroom, for practice;
Making him think, his kiss is all she ever imagines.
With a pocket-ful
-of rocket fuel;
-dragging strings that pull;
On a heart - that's uncertain, but beautiful...
[Chorus:]
She just can't help: Being a girl;
She just can't help: Being a girl;
She just can't help her-self,
-full of spectacle and charm-like nothing else.
Never let yourself be seen
By everyone we know
I'll comfort you before I leave
But baby I don't want to go
Never thought you would hurt me
Leave me down so low
Here comes the grand finale
But baby don't you wanna go
Back to the sound of the music
Back to the moment I ask your hand?
Before we let each other go
At the start of the romance
Back to sound of the music
Back to the moment I ask your hand?
Where do the lovers go
At the end of a slow dance
Tell me how it made you feel
To give my love away
To give him what he had to steal
All on the other day?
It meant nothing so you say
And you've got nothing to show
But offer me a big cliche
That/It only makes it worse
Back to the sound of the music
Back to the moment I ask your hand?
Before we let each other go
At the start of the romance
Back to sound of the music
Back to the moment I ask your hand?
Where do the lovers go
At the end of a slow dance
[Interlude]
Can we fall in love again
Once we fall down
Can we find the innocence
Once we fall down
Can we fall in love again
Can we find the beginning
Back to the sound of the music
Back to the moment I ask your hand?
Before we let each other go
At the start of the romance
Back to sound of the music
Back to the moment I ask your hand?
Where do the lovers go
Anything to get your attention
I'll do anything to get your attention
I'll do anything to get your attention
I'll do anything to get your attention
You don't come when I call
You act as if I don't, don't exist at all
I think there must be some, some trick to it
Some kinda, some kind of slick gimmick
I'll do anything to get your attention
I'll do anything to get your attention
I'll do anything to get your attention
Anything to get your attention
Paint my face on your bedroom wall
I?ll carve my name up and down the hall
There's just no way I can do without
Your love, baby, so don't tune me out
Anything to get your attention
I'll do anything to get your attention
I'll do anything to get your attention
Anything to get your attention
I know I should be patient
I can't just take no waiting
Ambition is raging through my body
My pride ain't worth saving
So, on every occasion
I'll be a fool for you, anything
Ooh, baby, baby, baby, baby, please
I'll do anything to get your attention
See, I'll do anything to get your attention
I'll do anything to get your attention
I'll do anything to get your attention
Everyday, I'll be dreaming of ways
To get your attention
Dead girl's dance, they burn and twirl
Witch hunt, witch cunt, burn this girl
Dead girl's dance they burn and twirl
Witch hunt, witch cunt, burn this girl
Dead girl's dance they burn
I'm running out of air
There's a carnival in the graveyard tonight
With the clouds that fall with poison
And they fall on my skin making tiny holes
Erasing my legacy
Nothing hurts, nothings right
I am nothing turning to the left
I get on a ride and the ride's dark
And drive Nazi cars
And I am no longer afraid
Because I've held on so tight
That I've crushed them
I've crushed them, it covers me
And I try to find comfort in the darkness
Where I am no longer your misanthropic majesty
With only one match and one chance to burn
Only one
I'm burning
I'm fucking burning
Dead girl's dance they burn they twirl
Mean Sleep - Van Hunt & Nikka Costa
What can we scrape together
From our loveworn emotions
Handfuls of hate and the bittersweet devotion
'Cause I am pushing cobwebs and I'm floating into myself
Who will find me under this mean sleep
How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain
How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change
I had a mean sleep over you and it hurts coming back to life
You could burn a thousand days
And I would need no other light
You could die a thousand ways
And I'd still love you back to life
Without a lover to wake me and my loneliness like quicksand
Who will find me under this mean sleep
How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain
How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change
I had a mean sleep over you and it hurts coming back to life
I had a mean sleep over you and it hurts coming back to life
I am lost to the longing
I am moulded by the memory
Had to shut down half my mind
Just to steal the space you left behind
'Cause I am moving cobwebs and I'm floating into myself
Who will find me under this mean sleep
How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain
How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change
I had a mean sleep over you and it hurts coming back to life
I had a mean sleep over you and it hurts coming back to life
Well, well, gettin' to know you so well...
Well, well, gettin' to know you so well...
Well, well, gettin' to know you so well...
Well, well, gettin' to know you so well...
She must've read my mind - How could she know?
...what I'm thinkin' at all times? I never told.
How could she know?
Always just a step behind - How could she know?
She must have a spy workin' on the inside...
Is it just suspicion? Or woman's intuition?
I can't tell, but, it takes one to know one,
And she know me too well...
Is it just suspicion? Or woman's intuition?
I can't tell, but, it takes one to know one,
And she know me too well... She know me too well...
Followin' me at night. How could she know?
She's a better pimp than I, keepin' up with her lies -
How could she know?
Is it just suspicion? Or woman's intuition?
I can't tell, but, it takes one to know one,
And she know me too well... She know me too well...
Is it just suspicion? Or woman's intuition?
I can't tell, but, it takes one to know one,
And she know me too well...
Well, well, gettin' to know you so well...
Well, well, gettin' to know you so well...
Well, well, gettin' to know you so well...
Well, well, gettin' to know you so well...
The numbers and the names - How could she know?
Unless she's been doin' the same, beatin' me at my own game?
How could she know?
Is it just suspicion? Or woman's intuition?
I can't tell, but, it takes one to know one,
And she know me too well... She know me too well...
Is it just suspicion? Ooh, or woman's intuition?
I can't tell, but, it takes one to know one,
I'm on the highway
If you're going my way
Let's take the fast lane to your place
Together
Something's come over me
I stink of teenage heat
Lay me down before I freeze
Forever
If I take you home, will you respect me in the mornin'?
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
If I take you home, will you write my name in a song?
(Yeah, yeah)
I want you
'Cause I need to
Never felt so sure about a cure upon meeting someone new
Watch me baby!
Watch me!
We're going nowhere
Can't wait to get back there
So I can pull your hair
Forever
(You know it feels good)
I know it feels good
(Just the way pain should)
Just the way pain should
(The young and dirty laugh through)
The young and dirty laugh through it
Together
If I take you home, will you respect me in the mornin'?
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
If I take you home, will you write my name in a song?
(Yeah, yeah)
I want you
'Cause I need to
Never felt so sure about a cure upon meeting someone new
Watch me baby!
Watch me!
All the fightin' and collidin' has got my lovin' bent
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Indication of a strained relation has my devotion spent
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I know what it looks like
But the time is right
Never felt so sure about a cure for the quiet life
I want you
'Cause I need to
Never felt so sure about a cure upon meeting someone new
Hey there lady, won't you take me home? I'll write yo name in a song
Hey there lady, won't you take me home? I'll write yo name in a song
Hey there lady, won't you take me home? I'll write yo name in a song
Hey there lady, won't you take me home? I'll write yo name in a song
Hey there lady, won't you take me home? I'll write yo name in a song
