I know what you're doing
I can see through that glare
With your finger twirling around in that hair
You've got my stomach turning and I don't think it's fair
How you are controlling me with that stare
And I'd run
If I could
But you're a fox
So I'm the prey
You take me back to your place
And you slam the door
There's a look on your face
That I've never seen before
This devil knows exactly what she's got in store
And without even thinking
Our clothes have hit the floor
And I'd run
I know I should
But you're a rock
And my scissors will do no good
We could be taking it slow
Then who knows what we'd be
Not so sure what will be sown
Let's not regret what we reap
We should be taking it slow
Then who knows what we'd be
Not so sure what will be sown
Let's not regret what we reap
Let's not regret
The next time that we meet
It won't be so sweet
We've done things that we would dare not speak
From the moment you slammed the door
And our clothes hit the floor
We both both knew
There would be no more of me and you, you, you
You should have taken it slow
Then who knows where we'd be
Mostly lies have been sown
No surprise what's been reaped
We planted shame and it grows
From our souls like a weed
Thought we could get one for free
Instead it made us feel cheap
We should have taken it slow
Then who knows where we'd be
Mostly lies have been sown
No surprise what's been reaped
We planted shame and it grows
From our souls like a weed
We thought we could get one for free
Instead it made us feel cheap
Yeah, it made us feel so cheap

Three days ago
I thought I'd found love
Someone to fit my life like a glove
But the doubt must have come
"How could he be the one?"
"Surely enough is enough"
"Best to cut my losses and run"
And I could blame naivety
On my trust that technology
Could bridge the gap for me
That 2000 miles and 9 years create
And I'm sorry that this just wasn't our fate
But how does something that never existed cease to be?
Oh why does everything seem so fleeting?
I wish something was permanent
I want someone to believe
Sharpen your teeth
For tonight we feast
And you can butter me up
All you want
But if I think
You'll slice me and serve me
And toss what remains
I promise you, dear
I won't taste as sweat
But how does something that never existed cease to be?
Oh why does everything seem so fleeting?
I wish something was permanent besides feeling empty
I want someone to believe
Someone to believe
Or maybe just something to believe

Whoever you are
Don't wait too long
To come and find me
I wish upon the stars
And write all these songs
Just so you'll come and find me
No matter how far
I hope to increase the odds
That you'll come searching for me
Cause in my mind is the canvas
On which my thoughts paint your picture
As I imagine you to be
You are the definition of beauty
As defined by me
The most amazing dream
That I ever could dream
Start packing your bags
Collect all of your maps
You've got so far to go
Across the mountains and the seas
From wherever you are to wherever I'll be
Cause in my mind is the canvas
On which my thoughts paint your picture
As I imagine you to be
You are the definition of beauty
As defined by me
The most amazing dream
That I ever could dream
Will you find me?
Will you look at all?
Cause I've been waiting one too many Falls
This isn't how the movies told me it would be
The screenwriters just looking for someone to tease
Or maybe they're just as hopeless as me
Better off trapped in their fantasies
Writing better dreams
Cause in my mind is the canvas
On which my thoughts paint your picture
As I imagine you to be
You are the definition of beauty
As defined by me
The most amazing dream
That I ever could dream
Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-ooh-ooooh-oh
This must be a dream
Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-ooh-ooooh-oh
This must be a dream

Whatcha doing over there?
Come sit down by my side
Whatcha doing over there?
I want to have you in my life
Whatcha doing with your hair?
Oh darling, what you’re doing isn’t fair
Please make your way on over here
I'm not someone you need to fear
You’re looking at me with those eyes
Those really big eyes that I really like
While I'm turning mine on your lips
Those soft lips I really want to kiss
And I hope you won’t pass me by
Cause you’re something I don’t want to miss
And if it happens another time
It’s my own ass I’m gonna kick
So are you gonna come to me?
Or do I need to go to you?
I’ll see what it is I need to see
I’ll do what you say I need to do
And so I'll stand right up and make my way
Stand right up and make my way to you
And when I open up my mouth, I’ll say
"I don’t know you but you’re beautiful”
"I don’t know you but you’re beautiful”
Whatcha doing over there?
Come sit down by my side
Whatcha doing over there?
I want to add you to my life
Whatcha doing with your hair?
Oh darling, what you’re doing isn’t fair
Please make your way on over here
I'm not someone you need to fear
You're, you’re looking at me with those eyes
Those really big eyes that I really like
While I'm turning mine on your lips
Those soft lips I really want to kiss
And I hope you won’t pass me by
Cause you’re something I don’t want to miss
And if it happens another time
It’s my own ass I’m gonna kick
So, so are you gonna come to me?
Or do I need to go to you?
I’ll see what it is I need to see
I’ll do what you say I need to do
And so I'll stand right up and make my way
Stand right up and make my way to you
And when I open up my mouth, I’ll say
"I don’t know you but you’re beautiful”
"I don’t know you but you’re beautiful”
“And if you came with me, that’d be wonderful"
“So come with me, my beautiful”

Show me those pearly whites
And let me inside
You'll have to let down your guard
Before I let down mine
Because I've been burned before
And I don't want to feel that pain anymore
So I'll keep you at arm's length
And have only myself to blame
Show me those baby blue eyes
There's no more beautiful sight
But they reflect all of my fears
Back into mine
Because I've been burned before
And I don't want to feel that pain anymore
So I'll keep you at arm's length
And have only myself to blame
Can I satisfy you
With everything that I do
And for all eternity too?
Because if I can
Then show me those pearly whites
And let me inside
Where I won't be burned again
In the arms of a more permanent friend
I'll always keep you within arm's length
And have only myself to blame
When I'm lonely
I'll have only myself to blame
When I'm lonely
I'll have only myself

Choke

She was born for the lions
So I made my bed for her to lie in
And I can't wait to press my finger to her nose
Remove all of her clothes
And hold her close
Put a curl to her toes
She'll grow weak in passion's throes
As she feels safe as I choke
With my hand around her throat
As I whisper "all I'll ever know"
Is that I love her
There's no other
She lives so, so, so far away
So here I'll stay, I'll pray, and I'll wait for the day
When my love and I meet
And share the space between my sheets
And I'll kiss the phrase
Inked on her rib cage
Just so she knows that
While it's something that I hate
I still hope she'll never change
Because I love her
There's no other

Red hair, white skin, blue eyes
She lights me up like fireworks
On the Fourth of July
And I'll be thanking St. Peter
When she unbuttons her blouse
Cause it's like the gates of heaven
Are being opened to me now
Being opened for me now
And when she says my name
It's such a sweet surprise
It brightens up my day
Like a diamond in the sky
A diamond in the sky
A diamond in the sky
I paid the price with all those lonely nights
But when you come home with me
I still feel like a thief
Unbroken hearts don't bleed
Don't sting, don’t sing, just beat
So let's hum along and piece it back together
Together with me
I feel like I'm lost
And you’re all that I've got
On these are uncharted seas
You are all that I need
Please crash into me
And capsize, I could die
In those ocean blue eyes
I could drown, be pulled down
But I'll be alright
Ounce for ounce, pound for pound
But I won't say goodbye
I've got no doubt you'll pull me out
And I'll be fine
Baby, if you breathe
Baby, if you breathe me back to life
Baby, if you breathe
Baby, if you breathe me back to life
I need more time
With you
