Mean Girl (Single) (free) 02:53
lyrics
download
I've been working for the devil and watching you He says he's loving everything you do and Im taking you back to hell Sorry forgot to lock the door but your not coming home tonight and don't bother with the phone numbers boys she's just trying to make some noise Ah mean girl Burning them off with a gun play the juke box to watch her move slipping into bed with you and Ah mean girl made up of just cold and lust she will make you feel like you've got something real Mean girl she's having a ball With baggage so small the boy, they want her all. The girls want her too she's looking at you, looking at you dont look too long. She'll drag you back to hell where she came from and lock your doors your windows too because she's on the loose she's hiding in the back wearing all black glass filled to the rim with jack waiting to attack Ooo Im falling in love with you exactly what you want me to do You feel me close and you start to run Im not going to let you go You sit me down to say that your not meant to be tamed Loving everything you do I talked to devil he said he's loving everything you do

Yeah tell me what you want I work for you You've taken all my power stripped it down to nude and Im slipping right out the back of the door you pull me in wont let me go for hours Then I push you away just to get some space then you come back formed as a tidal wave and corner me into a small dark space until I crack. Yeah you've got me drowning into your loving try to swim but the waves pull me under your skin then we hit the beds do it all over again You wonder why I start lying its just to live like you know I should do but im drowning in you drowning in you Yeah your drowning me out with every word you say then your pulling me in with your lingerie and its hit the lights until the next day then i'm back on the floor girl yeah Im breathing in air that can get so thin deep water underneath in a sinking ship and the land gets farther every time I move an inch and shark fins are closing in Ready or not and its hear I come You pull me in before I can run you say lets have some fun how do I go from pushing you to making love Im giving up because I don't want to watch you go

Only a Use to Myself (free) 03:07
lyrics

VERSE 1: I’m falling fast baby for the past year My words are drowning out by the sounds around me I’m the one in the back of the party constantly filling his cup Imp begging for just a few words to say To make people laugh and to make my day Just for once can I not be the one who ends the talks? CHORUS: Hey pretty girl walking down the street I’ll treat you better than any boy you ever meet Maybe sometimes I lock the door Lay under covers to see if someone wakes me up I can’t give my full to anybody else so maybe I’m only a use to myself VERSE 2: And people think I’m narcissistic but no I just lost a few key characteristics about myself Don’t know what to say anymore Especially when the guy next to me has got the floor I push some words out and they sound so strained People push them to the side Leave me stranded in a pool of my lost words CHORUS BRIDGE: This is gonna drive me crazy Fitting in How am I looking? My patience is wearing thin Super glue holding my lips Does anybody have a way to get out of my own skin? Because i'm just not breaking in I need to figure myself out before you think you know me CHOURS

Pushing You Aside (LIVE) (free) 03:15
lyrics

I didn't expect to end things tonight a delayed reaction i knew i had to make for months we stalled because we needed each other but someone had to make the move cuz resentment was all we knew but im hurting, im losing I want you, but i cant have you in my arms cuz you were poisoning me all along and i'm sorry, i left you theres no explanations but so long and i will miss you when your gone miss you when your gone and as you left yah stared your eyes glazed over and scared and I thought, 2 years of my life are walking out the door but disfunction ran our veins and made me realize that maybe our high school love had run its course I need you now cuz my environment is crashing and it brings me down I see your face between the rubble in my room collapsing and Im petrified but theres relief to finally pushing you aside pushing you aside

The Way Things Used to be 04:32

VERSE: And its another quite drive on the way home I made you cry, didn't mean to lie i just feel stuck so many times I look at the door and think to run I'd be doing you a favor im not worth anything much The world will keep spinning if I don't keep close in touch CHORUS: Oh I think this is farewell I hope you couldn't tell but things just aren't the way they used to be I knew you knew by the way you looked at me that this was the last time i'de be seeing you my friend and this is the last time I'll see you VERSE 2: And we're running through fields that were once brightened by our love now a torn down landscape shot down by our words You sit crying because you know its time to leave but i cant help you anymore than you could ever help me Im just a lonely keeper to maintain these empty fields CHORUS BRIDGE: It aint much fun getting this much older I remember being younger and wishing I'de wake up once day be on my own but im scared with a girl faking a smile with sadness that drags on for miles how did life get this real how did life get this real And we're running through fields that were once brightened by our love now a torn down landscape shot down by our words CHROUS
