It's Okay



It's Okay,
I don't even cry
all I think about is a memory
in that dream when you kissed my arm
as I look away, don't hear
what I say

That maybe when I die
I get to be a car
driving in the night
lighting up the dark.
something in your voice
sparks a little hope
I'll wait up for that noise
your voice becomes my home

Long way round, don't care what I find
A little thunder's good, I thought maybe you would
but it's okay, we all feel left out
sometimes growing up, it can get you down.

I give you some thing that no one's gonna to give you
my sleepin' skin and my heart deep down in you
I'll never tell you, but you're my little scar
Goodbyes are hard and they're hard and they're hard

Maybe when I die
I get to be a car
driving in the night
Lighting up the dark
Something in your voice,
sparks a little hope
Ill wait up for that noise
your voice become my home

Disappearing Act

I'm distracted not attracted
You attach without connection
As I self serve my diffracted mind
I don't want what I need
I don't care about the scars I leave
Your name and smile a thrown out file
As soon as we break away
Only when I hate you do I really love myself

I will only let you down
I can only fail you

You won't want me then I'll want you
When you come back I won't want you
Pushed and pulled our minds will rip in two
I'm so scared of what I need I don't care
About the scars received
I live in self denial
I'm afraid of what I've got
I don't know why I hate you when you love me

My life's the lies of you and i
I've grown so hard that I deny accusations even
When they're true
My pain is all I trust I don't care
How much I bleed
Don't regret the time you met me
Don't hold the harm I did against me
I don't know why I want to hurt you
When you touch me

Why do you stick around and let me do this?
Why do you stick around for this torture?

Only when I'm with you do I want to be without
Your eyes are the windows
To the emptiness inside me

White Horse



Say you're sorry
That face of an angel comes out
Just when you need it to
As I pace back and forth all this time
'Cause I honestly believed in you
Holding on,
The days drag on
Stupid girl
I should have known, I should have known

That I'm not a princess
This ain't a fairytale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood,
This is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now its too late for you and your White Horse,
To come around.

Baby I was naĆ­ve,
Got lost in your eyes
I never really had a chance,
My mistake, I didn't know,
To be in love you had to fight to get the uppper hand
I had so many dreams about you and me.
Happy endings
Now I know

I'm not a princess
This ain't a fairytale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood,
This is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now its too late for you and your White Horse,
To come around.

And there you are on your knees
Begging for forgiveness,
Begging for me
Just like I always wanted,
But I'm so sorry

Cause I'm not your princess
This ain't our fairytale
I'm gonna find someone, someday
Who might actually treat me well.
This is a big world,
That was a small town
There in my rear view mirror,
Disappearing now.
And it's too late for you and your White Horse
Now its too late for you and your White Horse
To catch me now.

Oh whoa whoa whoa-oh
Try and catch me now
Oh
It's too late
To catch me now.

Chasing Cars



We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

We Like Em When They're Trouble



Ever since I can remember so basically forever,
I’ve recognized a pattern that when I get together,
With a girl a switch gets flicked in my brain (click)
I always make the same pick and go for the insane chick,
I know that dames think different to dudes,
But the ones that I choose have gotta screw coming loose,
Either had some abuse and it never got revolved,
Or they’re just the one offs that never fit into a mould,
Smitten with gold diggers liars and thieves,
Heartbreakers’ troublemakers diva’s hard to please,
Law breakers on reprieve who still push the envelope,
Zodiac mismatches using both the horoscopes,
It’s like a horror show I’m sorry for my friends,
Who had to watch the same scenario again and again,
But I could never pretend that I understood the puzzle,
The only thing I know is that I like em when they’re trouble.

We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why
We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why
We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why
We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why

Now I suppose I could go for somebody submissive,
And know that when I spoke they would actually listen,
Go fishing for compliments and always get a bite,
Like my pockets made to piss in made order water tight,
As normal as you like but if I’m bored I might stray off,
I’ve sought the out of order looking forward to the chaos,
Maybe there’s a payoff for taming the shrew,
Either way you gotta lay off when the painters are due,
I’m stating the truth they’re seductive and destructive,
The amount that I’ve encountered them counterproductive,
And I’m bound to be stuck with the diamond in the rubble,
The only thing I know is that I like em when they’re trouble.

We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why
We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why
We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why
We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why

As I break this shit on down get up off your
As I break this shit on down get up off your
As I break this shit on down get up off your
As I break this shit on down get up off your ass

Maybe I should change what I look for in a lady,
The women that I seem to attract are all crazy,
Like cuckoo, madder than hatters,
All of the above from the former to the latter,
Maybe I’m deranged but if trouble doesn’t make me,
Run the other way then I’m the one who’s crazy,
Like cuckoo, madder than a matter,
All of the above but it really doesn’t matter cause.

We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why
We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why
We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why
We like em when they’re trouble I don’t know why

Live Like We're Dying

Sometimes we fall down, can't get back up
We're hiding behind skin that's too tough
How come we don't say I love you enough
Till it's to late, it's not too late

Our hearts are hungry for a food that won't come
And we could make a feast from these crumbs
And we're all staring down the barrel of a gun
So if your life flashed before you,
What would you wish you would've done

Yeah, we gotta start
Looking at the hands of the time we've been given
If this is all we got and we gotta start thinking
If every second counts on a clock that's ticking
Gotta live like we're dying

We only got 86,400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or to throw it all away
We gotta tell them that we love them
While we got the chance to say
Gotta live like we're dying

And if your plane fell out of the skies
Who would you call with your last goodbye
Should be so careful who we live out our lives
So when we long for absolution,
There'll no one on the line, yeah

Yeah, we gotta start
Looking at the hands of the time we've been given
If this is all we got and we gotta start thinking
If every second counts on a clock that's ticking
Gotta live like we're dying

We only got 86,400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or to throw it all away
We gotta tell them that we love them
While we got the chance to say
Gotta live like we're dying

We only got 86,400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or to throw it all away
We gotta tell them that we love them
While we got the chance to say
Gotta live like we're dying

You never know a good thing till it's gone
You never see a crash till it's head on
Why do we think we're right when we're dead wrong
You never know a good thing till it's gone

Yeah, we gotta start
Looking at the hands of the time we've been given
If this is all we got and we gotta start thinking
If every second counts on a clock that's ticking
Gotta live like we're dying

We only got 86,400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or to throw it all away
We gotta tell them that we love them
While we got the chance to say
Gotta live like we're dying

We only got 86,400 seconds in a day to
Turn it all around or to throw it all away
We gotta tell them that we love them
While we got the chance to say
Gotta live like we're dying..

Half Of My Mistakes

Half of my mistakes I've made, stone cold sober
Half of my mistakes I've made, at closing time
Half the time never saw it coming, until it was over
Oh, and half of my mistakes I've made with love on the line

Half of my mistakes I swear, I should've known better
Half of my mistakes, were just amongst friends
You get a little distance on it, the truth is clearer
Oh, and half of my mistakes, I'd probably make'em again

If I had it all to do over
I'm sure I'd win and lose just as much
Spend alot less time, on right and wrong
alot more time on love

Half of my mistakes I've made 'cause I was moving too quickly
Half of them where made 'cause my heart was moving too slow
Nobody can tell you a damn thing, if you ain't listening
Oh, and half of my mistakes I've made 'cause I couldn't let go

If I had it all to do over
I'm sure I'd win and lose just as much
Spend alot less time, on right and wrong
alot more time on love

Half of my mistakes I'd give anything to change how it ended
Oh and half of my mistakes God, I would'nt change one thing
You can lean too hard on a prayer but I don't recommend it
'Cause half of the things in my life came from half of my mistakes
Yeah, a lot of good things in my life came through half of my mistakes
