ache

dont know how to say it

guess it means i need you

feeling kinda crazy

staring at the list

don't know how to handle

i can't keep a thought straight

feeling kinda nauseas 

do you get the jist?

[chorus]
a dark ache
rushing over me, over me
a dark ache
overpowers, devours me
a dark ache
fills my deepest place
til I see your face
til i see your face

[v2]
trying not to panic
clinging on the reason
dont know where you've gone now
sure that you'll be alright

i wrote this little song
i hope that it can save me
I'll take another breath
and release it to the night

[chorus]

Jacob

Jacob danced through the hallway
hotel sheet tied around
filled the silence with giggles
sprinkled love on the ground

Everybody who knows him
sees him leaking each day
once a boy with a big plan
he threw his notions away

[Chorus]
Jacob Jacob
Clutching tightly to the sea
Jacob Jacob
Mummy loves you differently
Jacob Jacob
Always been a stray
Jacob Jacob
Searching every day

He dropped his sheet in the doorway
then crawled across the dark room
he tried his best not to giggle
or spill the flowers in bloom

He's bathing there in the moonlight
while bashful stars hide their eyes
the tiny world spinning wildly
through a meridian sky

[CHORUS]

wild flowers

dreaming that dream
dreaming of you
wake in the dark
it wasn't true
reach for your hand
find an old sock
cuddle myself
sigh as i rock

(chorus)
wild flowers
fields of wild flowers
blue and white
orange and red
I'll dream of them
til we're both dead
wild flowers

i'd seen them before
brilliant and bright
but who could have known
I'd miss them tonight
I'll lie here alone
my face on your shirt
cuddle myself
and smile as i hurt

(chorus)

comfortable

the soft seductive glow
bussing your sweet face
i see you over there
in your old familiar place
sometimes you give me glances
in special circumstances

but usually i just feel you
and your cosmic energy

i'm floating in my world
and you're somewhere there in yours
somehow our drifting orbits
simultaneously occur
we're speaking without sound
in the silence all around

I'm happy I can feel you
and your cosmic energy

trust me

(v1)you're just
the kind
of girl i like:
pretty
and stupid
and rich

I'm the kind
of boy
you can't resist:
tall
and certain
and a little bit mean

(chorus)
trust me, trust me
I'm not gonna hurt you
trust me, trust me
baby you can change me
trust me, trust me
we will be so different
from the last girl I left
crying alone

(v2)
you say
that we
can get this right
together
and happy
sounds great

if you
don't want
to fight tonight
shut up
give in
come on

(chorus)

(bridge)
if we can't work this out (it's your fault)
you knew me from the start (who I am)
you said you didn't care (so stupid)
I don't need you anyway (you bitch)

(chorus) x2

a bone

come on universe
throw me a bone
I'm tired of scrounging around in the trash
i've begged and pleaded
I've even prayed
I've lit the candles and chanted the chants

I've done it all
but it doesn't seem to help
come on universe
come on

what should i say
what should i do
what magic tricks will see me through
I've conjured
I've pondered
I've threatened the spirits

I've done it all
but it nothing helps
come on universe
come on

If I were there

If I were there
If I were there

I'd hold you close
and pet your hair

I'd make a dirty joke
just to hear you laugh again
just to make you laugh again

If I were there

If I were there
If I were there

I'd hold you close
to show I care

I'd make a stupid face
just to see you smile again
just to make you smile again

If I were there

But I'm not there
No, I'm not there

you keep reminding me
reminding me
that I'm no longer there

No, I'm not there
I can't be there

I'm far away
so far away
I can't show you how I care

in another time
on another day
I was there
to make you smile
to be your smile

but now
I'm not there

do you think of me?

Do you think of me
when i leave your sight?
Do your eyes ever wander
to the place I was?
Do you think of me
when I'm not around?
Do you think of me?
Do you think of me?

Do you think of me
when you're somewhere else?
Do miss my passion
when you're all alone?
Do you think of me
when you wet your lips?
Do you think of me?
Do you think of me?

I wish I
could always be
right there with you

the next best thing
is always knowing
that i can count on you

can I count on you
when I'm not around?
do you miss me
when I'm out of town?
do you hunger?
do you miss my sound?
do you think of me?
do you think of me?

one and only: you

(v1)

Falling

Falling

Falling in love all over again

hanging on your every syllable

I'm falling in love all over again

enamored with you, you're so incredible

How do you do it?

You intoxicate me

I'll never know you

But you've always thrilled this silly little heart

and you always will, I can't resist you

[chorus]

i hear you

my idol

my one

my only

i hear you

my hero

the one

the only

i love you

perfection

my only

one and only

the one

the only

the one and only: 

you

[v2]

tuesday

tuesday

a long awaited tuesday

you drop the new album

I'm falling in love all over again

choked up in ecstasy, you're so powerful

you sing a sonnet

bang on your piano

I'll never know you

but still I'm dizzy, and giddy, and crying

you always do this, I can't resist you

[CHORUS]

[bridge]

and i'm lying alone in a broken down bed

in nothing but headphones

and your glorious sound

the tears mix with giggles

the sighs dance with smiles

i can feel you inside as you float all around

[chorus]

lucky charm

sit back down

you're not goin' anywhere

i'm on a streak

and you're my lucky charm

sit back down

you're not goin' anywhere

I'm gonna win

because you're my lucky charm

[prechorus]

maybe I'm crazy

maybe its a fluke

but I'm just so lucky

so lucky with you

maybe I'm wrong

maybe this is bad

but you're the luckiest charm

I've ever had

so sit back down

[chorus]

Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky

Lucky charm

you're my lucky charm

(x2)

(v2)

sit your ass down

you're not going anywhere

not, not going anywhere

as long as I win.

One more hand

I'm up and I'm on a roll

I'm winning and I can't lose

cause you're my lucky charm

[prechorus]

[chorus] * 2

tiny flowers

(v1)

we fought

another stupid fight

a day of heavy sighs

the ruin of a night

a good time we will never have with each other

I said

you never seem to care

you never pay attention

i'm sick of that blank stare

a look that says you're body's here but you're with another

[prechorus]

you insist you're all in

you insist I'm crazy

and you swear you'll make it up

next time you'll pay attention

[chorus]

then you send me

tiny, tiny flowers

the kind that make me smile

the kind you know I love

my favorite tiny little flowers

tiny, tiny flowers

a way you show you care

its all I need to know

that you love me

just tiny little flowers

[v2]

we make up

why'd we even fight?

maybe I was wrong

crazy from this love

Guess I blew it out of proportion

we kiss

start to sort things out

everything seems fine

then you talk again

and I remember why I was angry

[prechorus]

you didn't mean to hurt me

you beg for me to calm down

and you swear you'll make it up

you have the best of intentions

[CHORUS]

Julian

(v1)

He looks a bit like me

but somehow more beautiful

He's got that certain swagger

a dandy little dapper

He dresses to the 9s yeah

He knows just want to say

He distinguished and a determined

He always gets his way

(prechorus)

Somehow he managed to take

the things that I just couldn't manage

and change them into a a great big advantage

he's smooth and charming

his smile's disarming

(Chorus)

Julian

Ju-Ju-Ju-Julian

How can I compete with Julian?

Julian

Ju-Ju-Ju-Julian

The best parts of me and a little something extra

Julian

Ju-Ju-Ju-Julian

Ju-Ju-Ju

Ju-Ju-Ju

Ju-Ju-Ju

Ju-Ju-Ju

Julian

(v2)

He struts right in

from across the Atlantic

saying 'loo' and 'bird'

and 'bloody' and 'brilliant'

The girls all drool

over his accented vowels

and his thrift store suit

and cute little scowls

(prechorus)

(chorus)

(bridge)

Julian come right over here

Julian let us show you a good time, a good time

Julian let us make you smile

Julian take me home tonight

(chorus)

Careless

(v1)

I know you didn't mean the harm

I know you didn't plan this

You're just a clueless silly boy

You're just a little careless

You never knew the thing to say

You never knew the things to do

You're just a clueless silly girl

and careless me loves careless you

(CHORUS)

Careless

We were careless

Tripping over careless words

Accidentally killing each other

Careless lovers in a careless war

Careless

Stupid, careless

Best intentions gone array

Stupid careless hurting each other

Careless lovers in a careless war

(v2)

You forgot my favorite color

You forgot our 1.5

I know I shouldn't get so crazy

No big deal, I'll survive

You never asked for all my tears

They always longed to see you

They fight to flee from my silly head

and run down my face to see you

just to see you

(CHORUS)

look so good

[v1]

people don't like it

when you're in the middle

make up your, make up your mind

we wanna know it

fickle and needy

saying that your greedy

make a choice, make a choice

choose one or the other

[prechorus]

they just don't understand

its not a choice, its not just indecision (indecision)

you've got an eye for perfect subtly

you're sensitive to a world bustling with chemistry

[chorus]

why does he have to look good, look good

why does she have to look good, look good

why do they have to look good,

look so good

look so good

to me?

why does she have to look good, look good

why does he have to look good, look good

why do they have to look good,

look so good

look go fucking good

to me?

[v2]

why does it matter

why they gotta label?

make a choice, make a choice

choose one or the other

why are they asking

who you wanna be with

make up your, make up your mind

they gotta know it

[prechorus]

they just want to put you in a box

they can't control, they can't understand it

you've got a fire that melts their stupid chains

you'll burn their world and fuck their tiny brains

[CHORUS]

didn't know

[v1]

I see you standing there across the room

suddenly I'm standing right next you

don't know how I got here so fast

just so happy you look so happy

I see you walking there across the street

suddenly I'm standing next to your feet

must be magic, can't explain it

Just so happy, can't contain it

[CHORUS]

didn't know

didn't know

I could fly so high

so high

without my wings on

forgot to put my wings back on

didn't know

didn't know

I could fly so high

so high

without my wings on

forgot to put my wings back on

with you i never need

to put my wings back on

[v2]

you've got that smile that sends me into a cloud

and floats me back down safely to the ground

don't know how you manage to do it

just do happy you look so happy

I see you walking coming around my way

its enough to make my every day

must be love now, can't explain it

just so happy, can't contain it

[Chorus]

[bridge]

didja even know that you could send me to the moon

with just a smile?

just a look

just a word

just a moment of.... (overlaps) you

didja even know that you could send me straight to heaven?

with just a smile

just a look

or beckon my soul back

from the depths of the deepest darkness baby?

[slow chorus alt1]

didn't know

didn't know I could fly so high

without my wings on

don't think i need to put my wings back on

[chorus]

what sexy is

(v1)

she made me smile

she made me nervous (nervous)

she made me look away

she made me giggle (g-g-g-giggle)

she made me laugh

she made me blush

she made me stutter (st-st-st-st-utter)

she made me, she made me, she made me

[Chorus]

when he

put on that corset

and when he

put on that wig

when she

fluttered her lashes

I just lost all my preconceptions

I just lost all my, all my, all my

I just lost all my silly preconceptions

of what sexy is

[v2]

she made me crazy

she made me wild (I went wild)

she made me cross my legs

she made me wonder (what is going on now?)

she made me question

she made me stare (I couldn't look away)

she made me stutter (st-st-st-stutter)

she made me, she made me, she made me

[CHORUS]

[bridge]

don't you try to

put her in a box

put me in a box

i'd put her in my box

don't you try to

tell me what to feel

tell me who feel

you can't tell me this ain't real

I don't care if

they say that this ain't right

she's only her tonight

I'll be with her tonight

and tomorrow

we can work

all the details

out

[bridge repeats]

[Chorus!]

a little

In the silence of the moment

I can only hear you breathe

the devastation of hesitation

the flash of doubt that I perceive

(prec)

and in that terrible heart beat when you don't give your reply

(chorus)

I die

a little

cuz you say won't say that you love me

I die

a little

cuz you won't say that you need me

I die

a little

cuz I'm scared you never will

I die

a little

come on just go in for the kill

(v2)

how can you sit there and just watch me suffer?

a wounded creature in the dirt

you see me writhing from your deafening silence

you know your words can heal my hurt

(prec 2)

but still you stand there in your indecision

killing me slowly with your inhibition

and then you ask me not to cry

(CHORUS)

Gaga

[v1]

I'm sick of walkin' around

so invisible

people pass me by

I'm so invisible

looking right on through

I'm invisible

no one ever notices

invisible me

invisible me

beat up jeans and a t

so invisible

another passerby

I'm so invisible

nothing here to see

I'm invisible

no one ever notices

invisible me

invisible me

[prechorus]

tonight that's all gonna change

the universe will rearrange

I'll glam it up, I'll steal the scene

I'll strut on in, all eyes on me....

[chorus]

Tonight I'm gonna be GAGA!

Maybe tomorrow I'll be BRITNEY!

I'll tuck it in

I'll paint my face

I'll shake my ass

I'll tear up this place

Tonight I'm gonna be GAGA!

Maybe tomorrow I'll be BRITNEY!

I'll sparkle

I'll shimmer

for all to see

and tonight everybody's in love with me

[v2]

when i command the room

I'm incredible

when I dip down so low

I'm unstoppable

when I catch your eye

I'm irresistible

when I look back and smile

I'm unforgettable

[prechorus 2]

tonight your life is going to change

your universe will rearrange

I'll glam it up, I'll steal the scene

I'll strut on in, your eyes on me....

[CHORUS]

and tonight you're all in love with me...

[CHORUS] x2

[CHORUS 2]

Say good bye to BRIAN

tonight I'm gonna be BRITNEY

I'll tuck it in

I'll paint my face

I'll shake my ass

I'll tear up this place

Goodbye BRIAN!

Tonight I'm BRITNEY!

I sparkle

I shimmer

for all to see

and tonight everybody's in love with me

that song

[v1]

it happened

in an instant

I saw you

and lost my heart

i fumbled

and i dropped it

you just smiled

and picked it up

a dizzy rush

intoxication

a desperate need

to be with you

You had my heart

I had to follow

hypnotized

lost in your fog

[prechorus]

could it be [gasp/noise]

could it be [gasp/noise]

it happened so fast

but it happened so fast

how could it be [gasp/noise]?

how could it be [gasp/noise]?

if i don't say it out loud then it won't be true

[chorus]

You

You

I only want you

every minute, every second

I'm thinking of you

You

You

I only need you

every story, every song

Reminds me of you

I only want you

I only need you

I'm thinking of you

[v2]

but I had

a little secret

i was afraid

to say out loud

I knew

I had to tell you

I didn't know

you'd throw me out

I thought

that you would save me

but instead

you turned away

you threw my heart

right back at me

it hit the ground

and broke apart

[prechorus]

[chorus]

[bridge]

and I

realized

that I

didn't love you anymore

when I

heard that song

and it

/didn't break my heart/

and in a way

/that broke my heart/

because that was when I realized

that love

can die

She swings

[[I imagine this song as power pop/pop rock. Fast overall, up beat, but slows down at some places.]]

[v1]

she smiles

feeling his hands on the small of her waist

she laughs

as she flies back and forth at a giddy pace

her heart

is soaring as high as the tip of her nose

her feet

are dancing on air as she wiggles her toes

[prechorus 1]

she says

'i think the sun is getting brighter

the clouds have gone, i wanna go higher

promise me that this is forever n-o-o-ow'

[chorus]

and she swings and she swings

and she swings and she swings

breeze always tousling her long brown hair

and she swings and she swings

and she swings and she swings

an airborne heart now without a care

and she swings and she swings

and she swings and she swings

and she swings

[v2]

she smiles

feeling his hands on the side of her hip

she gasps

as scoops her on up and goes for a dip

her mind

is whirling along to the beat of the song

her arms

encircle his neck as he rocks her along

[prechorus 2]

she says

'i think the music's getting stronger

the blues are gone, Can we go a little longer?

Promise me that this is forever n-o-o-ow'

[Chorus]

[bridge]

and she swings

through the park

on her brightest day

through a pulsing club

just to hear him say

[bridge 2]

that the pain of her past is ending

she was down but he'll swing her back up

he's thinks her broken heart's worth mending

and he swears he'll never give up

he'll never give up

[Short music break]

[bridge 3]

and she swings

through their living room

when he thought she'd be out

to the bedroom door

when she heard a shout

and she sees him swinging with another girl

she just stops and stares at her crumbing world

and she swings and she swings

and she swings and she swings

(x3)

and she swings

[v3]

she cries

leaving a note that she knows he'll find

she climbs

up on a chair to leave it all behind

her hands

shake as they fumble with the dangling string

her breath

mixes with air as she has one last swing

[PAUSE]

[CHORUS]

Falling in love

Two strangers in the park

falling in love again

Two strangers in the park

falling in love again

[CHORUS]

And they're falling in love

with falling in love

then they're falling in love again

They're falling in love

with falling in love

then they're falling in love again

she's falling in love with his dark black hair

and he's falling in love with her eyes

she's falling in love with the slope of his neck

he's falling in love with her beautiful thighs

[Chorus]

he's falling in love with the thought of her smile

she's falling in love with his glance

he's falling in love with the tips of her fingers

she's falling in love with the thought of a chance

to fall in love

to fall in love again

to fall in love

to fall in love again

[Chorus x2]

glitter and champagne

((This song should be SUPER upbeat, dancy type song. I wrote this out in a way to remind me of the way I sing it. ignore the fact that I put parts of it in /slashes/. just notes for myself.))

Some/times/ you forget /that/ you're freaking fabulous

you stumble and break your heel

some/times/ your big /strut/ goes unnoticed

and you feel you've /lost/ your sex appeal

I've fallen down and landed on my face

many times before

I'm well acquainted with the slip of the tongue

and the taste of a dirty floor

don't

let

that

get you down

don't

for-

get

to look a-round

There

are things

that

al-ways help

to pep you up

when

life

shuts you down

[CHORUS]

g-g-g-glitter!

and champagne

g-g-g-glitter!

and champagne!

when life just sucks

and you're going insane

sprinkle glitter everywhere

and drink champagne

and drink champagne

he's walking away, slow motion heart break

and she never calls you back

he forgot your name, she screamed out another

the reds all fade to black

you're lost in the fog, you forgot your bread crumbs

you're tripping on your dress

forget what they said, drown all your sorrows

you're such a sexy mess

nevermind

the

stupid conclusions

Just rethink

all

your

desperate delusions

There

are things

that

al-ways help

to pep you up

when

life

shuts you down

[CHORUS x3]

A tale of 2 marios

[v1]

mario

mario

mario

mario

mario

is shiny and new

mario

mario

has caught her eye

mario

believes her lie

[prechorus]

she loves mario

then she loves mario

then she loves mario again

[chorus]

choose

choose

its time for you to choose

make up your mind, set someone free

you can't sing a duet, with 1, 2, 3

choose

choose

or everyone will lose

make up your mind, set someone free

you can't sing a duet, with 1, 2, 3

1, 2

[v3]

mario

has pretty lips

mario

has skinny hips

mario

lacks poise and grace

mario

has a pretty face

mario

mario

forgot a date

mario

always understands

mario

is in her long term plans

Can she change her plans?

Will she change her plans?

[prechorus]

[BRIDGE]

mario and mario

can't see what's going on

mario and mario

just names in a worn out love song

mario and mario

are fighting for her heart and mind

beauty striking two marios completely stupid blind

how can they be so blind?

She'll leave them both behind.

[prechorus]

[chorus]

Stardust

A million years ago

in a blinding flash

the stars exploded

with a deafening crash

they spread their pollen across the galaxy

and a million years later became you and me

you and me

When I see you

so depressed

I can't believe

you aren't impressed

with the wonder

that's inside of you

you're amazing

there's nothing you can't do

I believe in you

[CHORUS]

You are stardust

you are magical

You are stardust

you're invincible

you are stardust

so spectacular

and someday they all will see

you're stardust, baby

I've always known

you were something great

from the moment we met

you just illuminate

you're enchanting

you're one of a kind

you're the greatest

leave your doubts behind

and you will find...

[CHORUS]

Sometimes you fall

but don't we all?

and sometimes you forget

that you're a magical blinding light

sometimes they say

that you're light will fade someday

but everytime they doubt

you double up

do your part

dig on deep inside that heart

turn around

stand up tall

flash so bright

that you blow

them

all

away

you always blow them all away

COME ON AND BLOW THEM ALL AWAY!

[CHORUS]

Who am I?

I'm a needy thing

can't be alone

I'm a desperate creature

searching for a home

I'm a painted clown

who lives to entertain

I'm a strutting peacock

loud and vain

[Chorus]

Who am i when I'm all alone (x3)
Who am I?

I'm a child
Who's getting older
A crier
Who needs a shoulder
A poet
Who can't find the right words to say
Doesn't matter anyway

I fight

for the excitement

I cry

just to feel it

I sing

so they will watch me

I flirt

so you will want me

[CHORUS]

Do I exist when no one's looking?

Who am I? Who am I?

Or when I'm lying in the dark?

Who am I? Who am I?

And if I were to scream at the top of my lungs

on the busy, crowded street

in the middle of the day

would they all look away

or would someone finally see

right through me

and tell me just who i am?

[Chorus]

the right words to say

[V1]

Take a secret song

sing it wrong

then stick it in your pocket

Take a hidden tune

fail to croon

then save it in a locket

[Chorus]

somethings you can't just toss away

a melody you long to play

save it for a better day

until you find the right words to say

the right words to say

the right words to say

[V2]

Search for the word

you heard

but it came from inside

give up the fight

good night

well, at least you tried

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]

words wandering around the room

so exposed and uncontainable

slipping wildly out of reach

chase them round until I'm out of breath

I'm out of breath

out of

breath

[chorus]

My First Official Challenge (Not lyrics)

I have received my first official artistic challenge. Janice pointed out that all my songs are negative and sad and so has challenged me to write one positive/happy song a week. I have decided to accept this challenge on the grounds that the lyrics don't have to be any good. :P I guess we will see what comes of this.

The exact words were:

"something happy

or at least positive.

or not about something devastating."

FRIEND DAY

[[PREFACE: Janice challenged me to write a happy song. So.. uh... here's my first ever attempt at a happy song. It's awful. LOL. Suck it.]]

snapping a pic

rocking the mall

having a drink

having a ball

shopping for nothing

laughing at 2s

mani pedi

nothing to lose!

[Chorus]

Friend day

friend day

just us two rocking a friend day

friend day

friend day

update your status it's a friend day

Hanging around

watching cooking shows

flipping the channels

anything goes

then cruising to nowhere

who knows where it ends

even running out of gas

is fun with your friends

[CHORUS]

Can I have my heart back?

can I have my heart back?

you're done using it anyway

I know I gave it to you

but you're gonna throw it away

walk away

I'm always late

I'm always behind

I'm never there

I'm always unkind

I say the wrong thing

at the wrong moment

I don't understand

I don't even try

I leave a big mess

I just make you cry

I'm insensitive

to all your inner turmoil

I don't pick up my clothes

I don't clean up my mess

I don't notice your hair

and I couldn't care less

I'm impossible to live with

you'd be better off alone

[chorus]

I never never listen to what you say

just walk away

just walk away

I never never listen to a single thing you say

anyway

just walk away

just walk away

just walk away

You've had enough

you're fed up with me

you're sick of waiting

you wanna be free

you're done putting up with all my

crazy bullshit

You've forgiven too much

You've waited too long

you're done putting up

you're heard the last song

you're done waiting for this kid at heart

to grow up finally

[CHORUS]

I'm changing too late

You've made up your mind

I oughta give up

You're gonna leave me behind

you're packing your bags

I beg you to stay

I'm crying alone

you're driving away

[CHORUS]

oranges and limes

oranges and limes

oranges and limes

everything comes down to

oranges and limes

looked up

spoke out

shot down

turned off

oranges and limes

oranges and limes

I did it all for

oranges and limes

oranges and limes

oranges and limes

everything comes down to

oranges and limes

shut up

shut out

shut down

shut off

oranges and limes

oranges and limes

everything comes down to

oranges and limes

stood up

walked out

sat down

drove off

oranges and limes

oranges and limes

I did it all for

oranges and limes

what, what, what

when they look at me

what do they see

a sprite, a sparkle, a novelty?

and when they look elsewhere

do i disappear

fade into the white space underneath your chair?

[CHORUS]

what, what, what

am I suppose to be?

how, how, how

can I find out?

when, when, when

will I be me?

why, why, why

am I always so full of doubt?

the shadow of a moment

a glimmer of enjoyment

then falling face down into a pool of resentment

when you see this face

can you place

when it fits in time and space?

[chorus]

dreams

i rise

venture forth outside

in pursuit of you

the woman of my dreams

you called

you didnt know you called

a melody i love

drifting in on a lonesome breeze

i was sitting here, here

you're somewhere out there, there

i'll follow your trail

until i find you in your room

waiting for me, i presume

I'll follow the tune to get to you

the woman of my dreams

It's strange,

the way you know my soul

without knowing me

you know it all

You see inside

you see beyond

and with a breath

I'll follow you

i was sitting here, here

you're somewhere out there, there

i'll follow your trail

until i find you in your room

waiting for me, i presume

I'll follow the tune to get to you

the woman of my dreams

that song you played

it was for me

i know it was

so dont pretend

dont act surprised

just settle down

i'm here for you

we're meant to be

i know its true

i was sitting here, here

you're somewhere out there, there

i'll follow your trail

until i find you in your room

waiting for me, i presume

I'll follow the tune to get to you

the woman of my dreams

PANIC

tossed in the covers

ripped up pants

kicked in the corner

take a chance

darkness all around

push into your soul

then tumble to the ground

take then lose control

Panic!

i need more, i need more

Panic!

gimme more, gimme more

Panic!

don't stop, don't stop

and we'll climb on up

up to the top

take then lose control

then tumble to the ground

push into your soul

darkness all around

take that chance

kicked into the corner

ripped up pants

tossed into the covers

Panic!

i need more, i need more

Panic!

gimme more, gimme more

Panic!

don't stop, don't stop

and we'll climb on up

up to the top

Revelation

[v1]

the windows are open

the lights are on

the sounds are creeping to the lawn

somehow she sleeps

through all the noise

snoring softly, lacking poise

mindless drifting

far away

chasing shadows from the day

[chorus]

Revelation

Revelation

unable to create that

Revelation

Revelation

What's the point of a

Revelation?

Revelation

fuck this noise I want a

Revelation

[v2]

i try to do it

to cross her out

i clutch the weapon but have a doubt

what if they catch me?

what if they see?

i'd do it for her but not to me

she stirs on her pillow

eyes flutter like mice

i lose the power to take your advice

[Chorus]

[bridge]

revelation

i'll run out that door

revelation

i don't need you anymore

revelation

you're a beautiful mess

revelation

and I'm better

so much better

I'll be better

you-less.

Snap

I didn't ask for this

pulled the covers over my head

dodged the loathsome kiss

drowned in what you said

helpless

stalling

pressured

falling

hopeless

crying

fractured

then

SNAP

Way up

Way up

Way way up

way up

looking down

down down

looking down at you

What you gonna do about it

stand up straighter

attempt to meet my eye

I'm way up here

You're way down there

I'm looking down at you

Way up up up

looking down down down

up down up down up down up down

1000 miles a minute

going

coming

going

coming

going

coming

It's not that I think I'm better than you

It's just that I'm up here

sailing through like it's nothing

and you're still down there

always held down by something

Way up up up

looking down down down

up down up down up down up down

Way up up up

looking down down down

up down up down up down up down

One Night

See them wandering around

smug fat faces

they don't understand

and there is the girl that I loved

dirty and used

from a one night stand

a one night stand

I can not explain the low now

I can not tell you why

I can not stop these feelings

I can not look away from you

Beautiful you

Your dirt smudged face

a look of disgrace

one night stand

You don't have to tell me

I could read it in your eyes

You didn't mean to hurt me

and you can't stand to lie

Everyone attracts you

and you can't bear to stop

No one will forget

your large brown eyes

that impish smile

a quiet sigh

and then goodbye

one night stand

((music))

One night one night one night one night one night one night one night one night stand

Peligroso

me dijo es tan peligroso

pero no puedo creer

no me dijo es peligroso

mi lugar, mi hogar

no sabes que es peligroso

los moments sin razon

no hay nada que es mas peligroso

tan sientos en mi corazon

nadie pueden lastimar me

mas que li mismo

porque nadie saben mis faltas

mas que yo

[chorus]

peli...peligroso

pero no tengo miedo

peli... peligroso

pero no soy timido

cuidate nina

los vampiros te buscan

siempre tienen hambre

para suenos que no puedan parrar

cuidate nina

porque todas te miran

y tus ojos han causado

un guerra de corazon

no me dijo nada

porque no puedo escuchar

calmate cochinos

solemente soy la duena de la mar

[CHORUS]

no no no no me dijo

no no no no me dijo

no no no no me dijo

no no no no me dijo

Waiting

Waiting, waiting, always waiting

Never knowing what comes next

Step up here now stand right there now

Waiting for whatever's next

Just be patient, child

Don't you panic, child

Wait a minute, child

and you'll see something new is rising from the sea

calm down

breathe

take a pause

think it through

doubt the cause

can't you see we know what's best?

shut your mouth and don't digress

A little altered

I'm a little altered
A little pissed
A little panicked
Triple kissed
A bit resentful
A bit confused
A bit frightened
Completely used

Lying here wondering what will be
Tomorrow will they come for me
The suits are shaking full of fright
That someone has me in his sight

((repeat all))

two people sitting on a park bench

[v1]

tiny freckles dance around your dark, engaging eyes

sprinkles on the cupcake frosted carefully with sighs

teenaged girls caught staring on a sunny windy day

smiling kinda shyly in that special girlie way

i'm glad I ordered lemon, hope your cookies taste good too

you're looking all around and I'm just looking straight at you

[chorus]

here we are

two people

sitting on a park bench... smiling like we know things...

here we are

two people

sitting on a park bench... smiling like we know things...

but who knows... what the future brings

who knows... what the future brings

[v2]

you'll forget to love me when i forget to smile

saying that we're sorry but its been dead a while

searching for some meaning when meaning isn't there

i'll fail, again, to notice that you cut off all your hair

does it really matter that we'll go out separate ways?

should we get together, even if just for 3 days?

[CHORUS]

[bridge 1]

and even when

I smile again

you won't be there

so will it matter?

and even when

I love again

she won't be you

so will it matter?

can it matter?

does it ever really matter?

[CHORUS]

you grin to yourself before you kiss me goodbye

i wander away, slowly, never knowing why

I think of your pouty lips and you think of my hands

i'm searching for comfort, you want someone who understands

[CHORUS]

Eating Breath...

Eating breath

(v1)
What are we doing
Is this real or did I dream
I swear I see through you

Maybe i'm just eating breath

Where did the day go
It was just 3
I haven't moved in ages

Maybe I'm just eating breath

(chorus)
Don't know
Don't know anything
Don't know
Don't know anything anymore

Can't tell
Can't tell anything
Can't tell
Can't tell anything anymore

Maybe I'm just eating breath

(v2)

Could I be lost now?

On a street I've walked before

nothing's familiar

Maybe I'm just eating breath

A specter wanders by

an echo from a memory

no smile of recognition

Maybe I'm just eating breath

(CHORUS)

blue

couldn't help but notice.......

that your eyes......

are the same....

shade....

of blue....

as a corpse's smile.

Trip

((I hear this song with a very playful tune... maybe even xylophone. i actually just recorded an a capella version of this in case you like it and want to hear the tune I am thinking of. ))

[v1]

Under the ground

around the corner

she waits

Chasing a sound

around the darkness

she gaits

Do it yourself

no one can help you

its true

somebody said

you'll find the answers

in you

[chorus]

Trip on a rock

fall in a hole

spinning around

losing control

upside is down

downside is in

never too soon

try it again

[v2]

radio waves

always surround us

they say

creeping around

then penetrating

each day

she wanders on

limping slowly

alone

tries to get help

but there's no signal

on the phone

[CHORUS]

[bridge]

Didn't anyone tell you

not to play on your own?

Didn't anyone warn you

never stray far from home?

Chasing little white rabbits

will only cause you distress

Write this down on your forearm

It'll be on the test

[v3]

Stop by a pool

gaze into it

and see

A glimpse of the past

an unrelated

reality

She falls to the ground

around her shadows

amass

Slip from the edge

the final spiral

at last

[CHORUS]

a cracked mind

[v1]

Wake up in the middle of the day

didn't know I was sleeping

I'm tuned to the wrong frequency

alone in my delusion

everyone else in unison

sharing some hidden reality

I see a woman falling into the void

but somewhere the laugh track is echoing

[chorus]

this is a sign of a cracked mind

floating away from reality

the shimmering eyes that you once loved

the hands of a thief stealing over me

this is a sign of the last straw

floating away with my sanity

if you stab me to death with my broken heart

how can I bleed? Will I still bleed?

[v2]

look up can't believe the clock is right

didn't know time was drifting

I'm lost in a foreign future past

searching for the meaning

everyone else seems so alive

vulgar and bright and seething

I see their faces full of joy

but somehow I just hear screaming

[chorus]

[bridge]

How could the voice that soothed, now strike fear in me?

How could the touch that thrilled, bruise my body?

The face that I love I now despise...

How could those eyes... be... the same eyes?

Are those yours eyes?

Were those your eyes?

I once loved those eyes

[chorus]

Don't

[[Sweeping ballad ala the old days]]

Don't say you love me til you know me

Don't say you love me til its sure

Love isn't just a silly game, girl

Love can be hard work and a chore

Don't say you love me til you know me

Don't say you love me til its sure

Love isn't instant,

it takes time, girl

its not just your feelings,

its much more

Til you've face my indecisions

and my lack of inhibitions

til you've met my every part

Til you've seen me cross and lazy

being stupid, acting crazy

I don't want you to give me your heart

People take love much too lightly

falling for every pretty face

I think that love should be forever

something that can not be displaced

Maybe we have different definitions

Maybe I overthink it all

But I've seen love turn into madness

I've seen love destroy the soul

Til you've seen my ugly side

and held me while I've cried

I don't think love could start

Til I know you in and out

and I've overcome my doubt

I just can't give you my heart

Don't say you love me til you know me

Don't say I'm sent from above

I know you're feelings are exciting

but infatuation isn't love

take it

Don't question

Don't think

Don't move

Don't blink

Shut up and take it like a man

Don't leave

Don't hestitate

Don't push

Don't postulate

Shut up and take it like a man

I finally got you right here where I want you

I finally trapped you you're mine

I don't give a fuck if you're screaming or your hurting

Shut up and take it like a man

Don't act like you don't want me

Don't act like you don't need me

Don't act like you don't feel me

Don't act like you don't love me

(repeat of 'don't act like' verses to hypnotic swelling music til the music reaches a climax and explodes into noise then goes dead.... Then there is panting... Then....)

Shut up and take it like a man

Wasabi

Wasabi

leapt up from the plate

Ginger laughed

Thinking it was great

Who knew

Who knew

Who knew how it would end

Surprise attack

A secret plot unfurled

Unprepared

The colors pulsed and whirled

(crazy frantic battle and chase music that ends tragically)

Who knew

Who knew

Who knew how it would end

Ginger cries

Mourning her great loss

Wasabi lies

Awash it soy sauce

Who knew.......

Japanese

[v1]

you say you know me

you say you know me better than i know myself

you say you get me

you say you get me and i'm this and that and nothing else

how are you sure that you see what i am

how are you sure that i'm not a secret shape shifter coming from the mountains?

[c]

how do you know I'm not androgyne?

or 10 ft tall?

or secretly your liver?

can you be sure I'm not from the stars

or made of gold?

maybe I'm japanese!

[v2]

your eyes roll

your eyes roll when I spout my newest theory

your head shakes

your head shakes and you smile that knowing smile

I'm shot down and left on the ground bleeding

I'm shot down ...are you sure it's blood and not an elixir to could cure metrophobia?

[c]

CHORUS

[b]

you're sure of everything

and I'm always questioning

maybe you're right

but maybe....

maybe....

maybe.... I'm Japanese!

[c]

CHORUS

Georgia

hola georgia

hola georgia

i wouldn't understand anyway

bonjour georgia

no oiga las palabras que hablas

bonjour georgia

no puedo entender nunca mas

hello georgia

Je ne vous entends pas

hello georgia

Je ne vous comprends pas

It's not that I don't speak your language

It's not that you don't speak clear

It's just so hard for me to listen

when my heart's pounding in my ears

Hola Georgia

[Music]

Bonjour Georgia

[Music]

Hello.... [sigh]..... Georgia
