My future is raining today
My future is raining today
Why are my dreams on hold?
Why are my dreams on hold?
on hold...
Personal weakness or
not good enough, I am waiting for you
Treating my body good, I am
cuttin' down smokin'
and waitin' for you
Why are my dreams on hold?
Why are my dreams on hold?
on hold...
Hold Me
(Why you gotta throw this on me?)

Rocket Ship

You and me
We have seen these things
There's a demon here
at the table
If that's how you are
If that's how you are
Yeah me and you
Through hell we grew
There's an angel too
I can see right through
That's how you are
That's how you are
And Oh! The lives of their ghosts
they're just seeping in through key holes
They won't vie for love anymore
They won't vie for love
We're just two dumb kids on a rocket ship
We're a world away from what we're fighting for
And when we die we will see these things
It'll be too late - we'll be out in space
We won't vie for love anymore
We won't vie for love
We're just two dumb kids on a rocket ship
We're a world away from what we're fighting for
And when we die we will see these things
It'll be too late - we'll be out in space
We won't vie for love anymore
(We won’t find that love anymore)
We won't vie for love anymore
We won’t vie for love anymore

Tell me, is it all that you had dreamed of?
Turned around, the sunshine
Tell me, is it all that we could be love?
Are we just the sunshine?
Are we just the sunshine?
Are we just the sunshine?
And there are times i force myself to think of nice things
I’m by the ocean but i still resort to daydreams
of you
you you you you you you you you
And there are times i force myself to think of nice things
[yeah we were more than nice things]
I’m by the ocean but I still resort to daydreams
[yeah we were more than nice things]
Are we just the sunshine?
Are we just the sunshine?
It’s workin’ for me baby
work, workin’ for me baby
Is the sand
runnin’ through the street
gunna come right up to me?
Is the wave
runnin’ through this dream
gunna drown me in my sleep?
you you you you you you you you
[yeah there are times i force myself
yeah there are times i force myself]
We cast a circle in a round
on the last piece of solid ground -
Carry the ocean’s voice
though you.

In all of our bouts of war
all that I thought before
was you could be trusted.
I’m busted.
So what are we fighting for?
What is Us anymore
if you can trust that
you’ll find me
alone?
I know you called him back again
I know I shouldn’t check
but now I saw it
A lie
A lie
A lie
A lie
A lie
A lie
A lie
You could be loved
but you can’t be trusted
You could be loved
all of the time
and now you got me thinkin' we were wastin’ time and on a lie
I was never blinkin' at the thought of you and I at night
hey hey hey
It’s not what i was thinkin’ you were fuckin’ with another guy
but now I know it’s real ‘n I can’t get this image outta my mind
He’s
Icy Queen
Royal guy
“Secret Meet
How bout mine”
Said many things that I wanna believe but I can’t understand why you wanna mislead when we took all our love and we packaged it right I was still not enough to come home to at night
Take it make it fake it break it
awful time to cry I’m shakin’
dickin’ me comin’ to stick in me spinnin’ the room and the feelin’ is thick in me - hah!
Got’im to kiss me where you couldn’t find
I could be down I could show you good timez
I’m looking to find
You could be loved
But you can’t be trusted
You could be loved
All of the time
You could be loved
this time.

Can't Hold Me
02:00

You can't hold me
You can't hold me still
You can't hold me
You can't hold me still
And if you try to [Hold on to me]
I'll cut your eyes out [Lemme try this way]
And I will bake you [It’s been a way to see you]
Into a four and twenty blackbird pie
Make it nice and sweet
You can't hold me
You can't hold me still
I've got your number
I will call and pretend I'm someone else
and ask you ask you ask you
What's your favorite scary movie?
[Ooh he’s a dead ringer]
So don't cross me [Ring’im down now]
Cuz you and me we got homocidal tendencies
I will come from under your bed
Late at night
And finger paint with your guts
It's not a crush
It's not a crush
[Ring’im down now]

Romance

London calls to me
London calls to me
Things that you say
Taken the wrong way
Doesn’t mean I don’t love you bae
They say love has all the answers
But it’s asking all the questions
Can’t you see?
No,
Your heart is deep in your phone
And your meal is getting so cold
Can’t you see?
They say love has all the answers
But it’s asking all the questions
Can’t you see?
No,
Your heart is deep in your phone
And your meal is getting so cold
Can’t you see?
Please see me
Please,
Or let me be.

Stone | Air

Everything just turned to stone
Every boy here turned to bone
I need air, air.
I need air, air.
So what are you waiting for?
What’ve you got behind your eyes?
All the way to god,
through the eye between your eyes?
I need air, air.
I need air, air.
So what did you say Daddy?
[You think that it was just a joke]
What did ya say Momma?
[Distill her to a line of coke]
What did ya say?
What did ya say?
What did ya say?
I know what you said.
To repel my sense...
Too, fell, my sense...
Yeah, these far out boys
and noise…
I’ve come so far
To wait here
To wait here
For you.
I’ve come so far
to let you go down on my street and would you say
it was me
bringing you
below Us?
Below us
Below us
You were just a stone
You were just a stone
You were just a stone
You’ve turned all boys to stone
And I need air, air
I need air, air
I need air, air
I need air, air
I need...

The Sun Will Open

Guilty again – I'm on a roll
Come out and find me
In the air
How do you follow my song
when I’m so crazy?
Hold my drink darlin’
While I get carried away
Easy to be a (Did you catch that fall?)
selfish bitch when there is (On top of it all?)
so much left to gain
While I get carried away
The sun will open
The sun will open
Back to funny days
With you
In the sun
Open
Love you
Open
