I need a knife to cut the tension
I need a slice of your affection
You might be thinking the grass is greener
Contemplating a change of scenery
Even hand in hand I can feel your distance
If you walk away, baby boy you'll be missing me
You better think about no one

You can't just let it go so easily
Try and find a girl who compares to me
When you know everything that you mean to me
You can't take that away from me

Inseparable we were before, remember?
Can't just let a moment ruin us forever
We're not at the point of no return
I'm not ready to watch us crash and burn
I know in your heart that
You're tired of the distance
Not gonna let you make a mistake and be missing me
You better think about no one

You can't just let it go so easily
Try and find a girl who compares to me
When you know everything that you mean to me
You can't take that away from me

Imagination gets the best of me
I can't see another girl with what belongs to me
I had a feeling you would get a little stingy
Cause if you go you'll be taking a part of me
You better think about no one

You can't just let it go so easily
Try and find a girl who compares to me
When you know everything that you mean to me
You can't take that away from me

You can't just let it go so easily
Try and find a girl who compares to me
When you know everything that you mean to me
You can't take that away from me

(Not Too Loud)

I'ma PYT with an attitude
Sometimes I rebound from what i'm supposed to do
But when your love conquered my heart
I know I had to have you, all of the time

See I've been gone for a while now, theres nothing I can take
The Miles keep us away [my bell]
without you I'm running out of energy
I want you here with me
And baby w/o you i'm stalling on this road alone
When i'm gone too long i'm running on Empty without you
I'm going without cause i'm running on E
And yes I know this effect baby i'm running on empty without u

Choose the game I'm telling you
Boy in your eyes I saw the truth
Cause It was just so right
And now that I got you, I know what was missing in my life

See I've been gone for a while now, theres nothing I can take
The Miles keep us away [my bell]
without you I'm running out of energy
I want you here with me
And baby w/o you i'm stalling on this road alone
When i'm gone too long i'm running on Empty without you
I'm going without cause i'm running on E
And yes I know this effect baby i'm running on empty without u

It's uncontrollable, I get emotional what more Can I say
like a coffee with cream you compliment me
And I never want to be too far away

without you I'm running out of energy
I want you here with me
And baby w/o you i'm stalling on this road alone
When i'm gone too long i'm running on Empty without you
I'm going without cause i'm running on E
And yes I know this effect baby i'm running on empty wit

I can't believe I'm all Alone
Especially cause it's friday night, I had things to do but I brushed them off to Be with you
All dress up with no where to go
I've been watching time go by, the minutes [lie]
But I still haven't heard from you
How busy can you be, Clearly too busy for me
you know I like you so much
but your pissing me off (Really pissing me off)
I need consistancy, You know you don't deserve me
Say You like me so much
But your pissing me off (Really pissing me off)

Look at what you did cause you just lost one
Now [we made] that deep damage is done
You were lucky to just have my number at all
So tell me baby, tell me Why didn't you call
It's gonna take more than a coke and a smile
To make me forget that you didn't dial
You were lucky to just have my number at all
Break it down for me, Why didn't you call

I'm feeling so delusional
Cause I thought that you and I were vibin
Maybe that was in my mind
This sh!t is bad for my ego
Guessin you would rather spend your time
Laid up in my arms tonight

How busy can you be
What are you doing if it's not me
I know I like you so much and it's pissing me off (Really pissing me off)
But baby honestly, It's clear you don't deserve me
Say You like me so much
But your pissing me off (Really pissing me off)


Look at what you did cause you just lost one
Now [we made] that deep damage is done
You were lucky to just have my number at all
So tell me baby, tell me Why didn't you call
It's gonna take more than a coke and a smile
To make me forget that you didn't dial
You were lucky to just have my number at all
Break it down for me, Why didn't you call

Thought that we Had Chemistry
Now I'm second guessing things
It's crazy how one thing can change the game
(how to change, how to change, how to change the game)
I'm not trying to waste my time Waiting up for you
[Will not] throw you out my pocket like some loose change

Look at what you did cause you just lost one
Now [we made] that deep damage is done
You were lucky to just have my number at all
So tell me baby, tell me Why didn't you call
It's gonna take more than a coke and a smile
To make me forget that you didn't dial
You were lucky to just have my number at all
Break it down for me, Why didn't you call

(3, 4)

I paint my nails black, cuz it fits my mood
I'm tired of lookin' around for something to prove
You don't know how it feels inside my skin
But neither do I, because I numb the feeling
Take it away, all of my pain
I gotta bottle I need to finish
Take it away, take it from me
Cuz if you don't, I might drown in it

And I keep tellin' ma, tellin' ma, tellin' myself
That my bad luck's gonna go away
And I keep tryin' and tryin' and try, try to win
But I'm losing every day
I wanna get up and fight, but I don't have the time
I'm too busy feelin' sorry for me
When it looks like the clouds are gone
I wake up, it was just a dream, it was just a dream
It was just a dream, it was all a dream

I walk around, cold to the warmth of life
I see ya tryin' to talk, but I'm deaf to lies
Right, I believe in promises of tomorrow
If I don't make it there, know that I'm that sorry, though
Take it away, take it from me
Cuz I really wanna believe
After the rain, someone'll say
There's really more for me

I keep tellin' ma, tellin' ma, tellin' myself
That my bad luck's gonna go away
And I keep tryin' and tryin' and try, try to win
But I'm losing every day
I wanna get up and fight, but I don't have the time
I'm too busy feelin' sorry for me
When it looks like the clouds are gone
I wake up, it was just a...

See, I've been through Hell and I am still yet to come back
There is no conductor to get this on track
I have dreams of freedom from the circumstance I'm in
If it's in His plans for me, then I will win
I'll just dream til' then

I keep tellin' ma, tellin' ma, tellin' myself
That my bad luck's gonna go away
And I keep tryin' and tryin' and try, try to win
But I'm losing every day
I wanna get up and fight, but I don't have the time
I'm too busy feelin' sorry for me
When it looks like the clouds are gone
I wake up, it was just a dream, it was just a dream
It was just a dream, it was all a dream
It was just a dream

(Garland)
I swear we both used to say
that we would never walk away
Now when I see your face,
It's like you never felt the same
Explain to me

Chorus
How are you okay?
I can't be around you.
Don't you feel pain that I feel without you?
Cause I have to pretend that you don't make a difference, it's the lie that I'm living in.
When it does it go away, when does it go away, when does it go away?

(JoJo)
Baby, my worst mistake
was letting you ever get away, away from me.
And I couldn't see everything
when it was right there in my face
(?)and I just can't believe...

Chorus
How are you okay?
I can't be around you.
Don't you feel pain that I feel without you?
Cause I have to pretend that you don't make a difference, it's the lie that I'm living in.
When it does it go away, when does it go away, when does it go away?

(Garland)
I heard them say that times heals everything.
Every second without you, I'm going insane.
Ain't nothing in the world can help me now, help me now, ooooh.

(JoJo)
I told myself that today I'm moving on.
I can't even breathe now that your'e gone, you're my everything.
Let me know when does it go away.

Chorus
How are you okay?
I can't be around you.
Don't you feel pain that I feel without you?
Cause I have to pretend that you don't make a difference, it's the lie that I'm living in.
When it does it go away, when does it go away, when does it go away, when does it go away, when does it go away?

Let's take a ride, take ya somewhere nice
Let me see your face, in the neon lights
Got ya fools benched
Then we whisper in your ear
No need for questions
Let me make it crystal clear

I can be your angel
Even if it's for one night
If you show me somethin' special
I can show you what you like
What you, what you like

Girl, I understand
Ya say you wanna take your time
But I can see already, that you're gonna change your mind
Got your full attention
You're pullin' me right out the door
Gotta know just what you're thinkin'
So tell me what ya have in store

I can be your angel
Even if it's for one night
If you show me somethin' special
I can show you what you like
What you, what you like

I know a place where we can get away
Get into whatever boy as long as it's you and me
And baby, I know a place where we can be alone
Baby, tonight, (tonight) tonight (tonight)
(What you like)

I can be your angel
Even if it's for one night
If you show me somethin' special
I can show you what you like

Don't get confused
You don't have to choose
Cuz it's on the table
And it's all for you
Boy, I wanna get down, down, down, on the floor right now
If you wanna keep my attention
Well baby, let me show you how

I know a place where we can get away
Get into whatever boy as long as it's you and me
And baby, I know a place where we can be alone
Baby, tonight, (tonight) tonight (tonight)

I know a place where we can get away
Get into whatever boy as long as it's you and me
And baby, I know a place where we can be alone
Baby, tonight, (tonight) tonight (tonight)
(What you, what you like)
What you like
(What you, what you like)

This ain't the first or last time
We'll meet up this late at night
To let our fates intertwine
Casually I'd rather be
Detached from all tragedy
This don't need to be defined

And I know that it's wrong
I do, I do
Baby keep holding on
I do, I do
Yeah, I know that it's wrong
I do
When the sun comes up I'll be gone

[Chorus:]
I only know him in the dark
I only know him in the dark

Try to stay desensitized
Keep my feelings out of mind
My body won't be denied
Never took this road before
Love was always out the court
Of anyone I've been with before

And I know that it's wrong
I do, I do
Baby keep holding on
I do
Yeah, I know that it's wrong
I do
When the sun comes up I'll be gone

[Chorus:]
I only know him in the dark
I only know him in the dark

A smile's across your face
Your lips a familiar taste
Stay focused, I try
Can't get this out of my mind
I want more than what this is
Whatever we're calling this
The truth just breaks my heart

[Chorus:]
I only know him in the dark
I only know him in the dark

. . .


I love a boy without a heart.
I'm but a string on his guitar.
He would never know that I'm in pain,
Waiting for a song that he can't play.

I was confident the night we met,
The moment was so strong.
Like a piece of bubblegum,
Sweet at first but it don't last that long.
Now I'm filled with insecurities,
It's time to spit you out.

'Cause you, you'll never change,
The games that you play,
It's just who you are.
And I, have to believe,
It's you and not me,
The boy without a heart.

Yaaaaaayyyyaaaayyy

I love a boy who doesn't feel.
Believes what he says until it's real.
All that I want, you can be,
But you can not pretend that long for me.

I was beautiful the day we met,
But now I'm not so sure.
Awkward and alone you,
You don't make me feel sexy anymore.
I'm snapping myself out of it,
I gotta close this door.

'Cause you, you'll never change,
The games that you play,
It's just who you are (just who you are).
And I, have to believe,
It's you and not me,
The boy without a, the boy without a,
The boy without a heart.

Oooooooo

I just like to think that I,
Deserve a nice respectable guy.
So why am I here at your door, at your door.
If I was sane, I'd take my crazy behind,
And get back in my BMW,
'Cause I'm a self-made woman,
And someones gunna treat me better than you do (ha).

I just need ta, I just need ta calm down.

'Cause you, you'll never change,
The games that you play (the games that you play),
It's just who you are (just who you are).
And I, have to believe (And I I ....believe),
It's you and not me (It's you and not me),
The boy without a heart (the boy without a, the boy without a heart).

'Cause you, you'll never change,
The games that you play (Oooooo....you'll never change),
It's just who you are (just who you are).
And I, have to believe (I just have to believe for my sanity),
It's you and not me (Oooo),
The boy without a heart (the boy without a, the boy without a hmmm).

. . .


Sometimes I get overwhelmed.
There are so many dreams that I have for myself.
Some say I won't persevere,
But their words and their ignorance can't interfere.

'Cause I know,
That my drive exceeds circumstance,
And my passion is clear when I'm given a chance,
So, hate on me hater, I turn down the fader,
I wanna break down the walls, matter of fact,
I want it all!

I wanna be the one, I wannna be on top,
I wanna taste the sun, I wanna never stop.
I wanna light the sky, overall really,
All I want is everything.

I wanna touch the stars, I wanna feel the fire,
Wanna speak my mind, I wanna be inspired,
I make a change, in the end really,
All I want is everything.

Who says that your goals are mere fantasies?
Promise you won't lose focus from their jealousy.
'Cause our world, is in our hands,
We gotta mould it and colour and shade,
No reason why we can't.
We can have it all!


I wanna be the one, I wannna be on top (Oooooo),
I wanna taste the sun, I wanna never stop.
I wanna light the sky, overall really,
All I want is everything (I just want everything).

I wanna touch the stars, I wanna feel the fire (I wanna feel the fire),
Wanna speak my mind, I wanna be inspired (Oooooo),
I make a change, in the end really,
All I want is everything (In the end all I want is everything).

I want the city streets, I want the picket fence,
I want the privacy, I want the camera lens,
I want my beethoven, I want some rock and roll,
I wanna be the first and (aaahhhh) last,
I wanna stay at home, I wanna see the world,
I wanna date around, be your only girl,
I wanna (sounds like doctor it!?), still be rockin' it,

Is that too much to ask? Tell me!

I wanna be the one, I wannna be on top,
I wanna taste the sun, I wanna never stop.
I wanna light the sky, overall really,
All I want is everything (Wooooooaaaaaahhhhh).

I wanna touch the stars, I wanna feel the fire (Feel the fire),
Wanna speak my mind, I wanna be inspired (Speak my mind, be inspired),
I make a change, in the end really,
All I want is everything (All I want is everything).

I wanna be the one, I wannna be on top (Onnnnneeeee),
I wanna taste the sun, I wanna never stop (Never stop).
I wanna light the sky, overall really (Overall really),
All I want is everything (All I want is everything).

I wanna touch the stars, I wanna feel the fire (All I that want, All I that need),
Wanna speak my mind, I wanna be inspired,
I make a change, in the end really,
All I want is everything (In the end all I want is everything).
