Just One Of Those Things

 

Wish I could tell you
How much I need you
And how much you need me to go

Please don't listen
To what I'm gonna tell you
Look in my eyes and know that
I simply had to give up
But I didn't let go without struggle you know
I still love you
It's just, just one of those things

I know I made it seem
Like all was written down
And I hid all my pain
And now I bring it out

And you'll be scared at first
  Cause it's such an ugly blow
I don't know which is worse
To learn or not to know

Please don't listen
To what I'm gonna tell you
Look in my eyes and know that
I simply had to give up
But I didn't let go without struggle you know

I still love you
It's just, just one of those things

How To

i was unprepared for life and it hit me like a train

but the scary part isn't the bumps and bruises anymore

i can handle anything that hurts, i'm okay with pain

the scary thing is smiling when you get up off the floor

because i know how to cry and how to survive

but when it comes to dancing i'm a little shaky

i know how to handle heartbreak and deal with lies

but this whole love thing i'm not used to baby

i've been down for so long it's just what i'm used to 

thunder rolls, lightening strikes, and rain falls from my eyes

but you got me looking at the sky and smiling cause it's blue

but then i don't know what to do because you caught me by surprise

because i know how to cry and how to survive

but when it comes to dancing i'm a little shaky

i know how to handle heartbreak and deal with lies

but this whole love thing i'm not used to baby

i'm usually so prepared

i can deal with life so easily

but when it comes to showing that i care

i'm as awkward as i'll ever be

because i know how to cry and how to survive

but when it comes to dancing i'm a little shaky

i know how to handle heartbreak and deal with lies

but this whole love thing i'm not used to baby

To say

To say is to feel and to feel is to break

I broke.

He's reaching for my throat

He's reaching for my hand

To write

To write is to feel and to feel is to break

Well I'm done with breaking, I'm moving on.

You're reaching for my throat

To do is to die and I need to breathe

You're reaching for my hand

To do is to lie and I need to be free

To leave

To leave is to hurt and to hurt is just greed

I left.

She's reaching for my throat

She's reaching for my hand

To stay

To stay is to hurt and to hurt is just greed

Well I'm done with hurting, I'm moving on.

You're reaching for my throat

To do is to die and I need to breathe

You're reaching for my hand

To do is to lie and I need to be free

To fight

To fight is to try and to try is to kill

I killed.

I'm reaching for my throat

I'm reaching for my hand

To give

To give is to try and to try is to kill

Well I'm done with killing, I'm moving on.

Mistake

she took his hand

doesn't realize it's just part of his plan

he says trust me

and she believed, oh believed, she believed

her mistake

she just couldn't see 

how disgusting humanity can be

and now she's empty, empty, empty

it was her mistake

and now she'll never be free

all she can feel is his hands on her body

and he takes, and he takes, and he takes

her mistake

she let him in

now there's bruises on her porcelain skin

but he says love me

and she's happy as can be, as can be, as can be

her mistake

she just couldn't see 

how disgusting humanity can be

and now she's empty, empty, empty

it was her mistake

and now she'll never be free

all she can feel is his hands on her body

and he takes, and he takes, and he takes

her mistake

he threw her aside

she sits back and counts the lies

he says sorry

but now she sees, oh she sees, she sees

her mistake

but she just couldn't leave

oh how disgusting humanity can be

and now she's empty, empty, empty

it was her mistake

and now she'll never be free

she still can feel is his hands on her body

and she breaks, and she breaks, and she breaks

her mistake

Satin and Lace

i was looking forward to a new year

new start, new life and no fear

but it didn't work out quite like i wanted my dear

i keep trying, keep prying your hands from my waist

but your grip is too strong, as i look at your face

remember when the only thing between us was satin and lace

but back to reality, in all actuality

you're gone, you've moved on

to your latest victim

and i guess i'm just gunna coast along

what else can you do when it all goes wrong?

each day dawns with shadows on my face

so it seems i gotta find sunshine some way

but pretty new things like that satin and lace

aren't always promises of happier days

and with that, i'm sinking fast 

one thought of you and i feel myself crash

back to reality, in all actuality

you're gone, you've moved on

to your latest victim

and i guess i'm just gunna coast along

what else can you do when it all goes wrong?

and guess who's still sitting here thinking of you

do you ever even think about what you do

what you did, what you're doing to someone right now

and i know in my heart she's falling apart 

like the million others you've conquered somehow

but back to reality, in all actuality

you're gone, you've moved on

to your latest victim

so i guess i'm just gunna coast along

what else can you do when it all goes wrong?

flashback.

everybody's walkin round holding hands

he stares down at mine, clutching my sides

holding me back, back from love, back from pain

back from falling and crashing once again

the room spins, when i see you

but it's not the love song you're used to

silence decends, it's harder to breathe

i do my best to act calmly

i'm lost in the jungle of my head

and it's him i'm thinking of instead

if i had one wish, would it be for one more kiss

or just not to wince when i think of this?

you give me one more chance, but i have to pull away

while i struggle with this heart attack that's here to stay

i'm fighting this battle all the time

i'm a lost cause, and this problem is all mine

so i, oh, i'm so sorry

but this is no love story

everybody's tryin out romance

but i can't get my barren heart to dance

feel your arms through the pain, feel the drops in the rain,

take a chance to start all over again

there you are, and i feel that tug

but it's not the one you're thinking of

i'm sinking again, and i cant breathe

i'm drowning in my memory

i'm lost in the jungle of my head

and it's him i'm thinking of instead

if i had one wish, would it be for one more kiss

or just not to wince when i think of this?

you give me one more chance, but i have to push you away

while i struggle with this heart attack that's here to stay

i'm fighting this battle all the time

i'm a lost cause, and this problem is all mine

so i, oh, i'm so sorry

but this is no love story

yeah, i'm so, oh sorry

but this is no love story
