happy
i run inside, new shoes in the table
been taught to do the right thing
evidently im not able
you've been broken before, cant say i blame you
for running away
four leaf clover and a rabbits foot
hope it makes it all ok
cant make up my mind
seems im only able to find
those who give me the run around
lift my feet right off the ground
just to drag me down
and i'd be happy just to sit and be with you
and if you wanted to kiss, id be happy with that too
and i'd be happy to say that you're friends with me
if you're happy to say thats the way it has to be
time with me
tell me again how im so great
tell me again how you cant wait to spend your time with me
how about how you've never met
anyone quite like me in your lifetime
except im over all you lies
all your truthlessness, ridiculous alibis
if you dont come around and take your stuff away
dont be surprised to find it all on ebay
tell me again how im so great
tell me again how you cant wait to spend your time with me
and how maybe one day
you might even want to make me your wife
except im over all you lies
all your truthlessness, ridiculous alibis
if you dont come around and take your stuff away
dont be surprised to find it all on ebay
out of grace and luck
and its bang and you're all there
staring and smiling
fake smiles that dont quite
hide what you're feeling
she doesnt belong here
she cheats and she lies
she shouldnt be here
pretending not to hide
its all a front and its crumbling down
shes trying to have fun while they're swatming around
ready to pounce
and they do aand she's gone
she can only fight for so long
sooner or later even she wont know
the reasons for crying
wanting to go home
instead its fake smiles for a different crowd
til blankets and memory hold her down
things that i know
once you were like air to me
you always said you'd be there for me
but im glad that i dont love you anymore
i used to think that forever would always be with you
and i think that you thought that to
but im glad that i dont love you anymore
i need to shake this thing inside my chest
tell myself that its for the best
and im glad that i dont love you anymore
im glad that i dont love you anymore
im so glad that i dont love you anymore
chinese whispers
can i tell you a secret?
you have someone who loves you, who thinks you're pretty cool
yet you're out here making moves on someone else
breaking your own rules
it hurts to see you dancing with him
leaning close to talk together, pulling him in
when i told you it was ok, it was not your turn to say
'my boyfriends so annoying, can you come out and play?'
perfect on paper
im counting the times and writing them down
plotting it out in excel
shows everyone just how great im doing
and how life is treating me so well
cant tell you how happy i am
its all falling into place
life is just so great right now
for me, anyway
shes good with words
shes got a guitar
she'll boost my credit much more than my all stars
shes everything i need on paper
and everything i want, in my head
but you know, its only what it is
is doesnt count with you
it is what it is and you'll get what you're given
until you see right through me
flight risk
every night when i should be sleeping
i lie awake when i could be dreaming
nights the time when i most think of you
and how impossible it seems to last til morning without seeing you
to last these days and nights without breathing you
every day when i should be living
i walk the streets when i could be leaving
its not impossible to have you close again
its just an obstacle i'll overcome with time and flight
i will overcome with time and flight
impossible it seem to last til morning without seeing you
to last these days and nights without breathing you
invisible ink
wishing that the words i spoke came out in invisible ink
or even that before i spoke i took some time to think
remember that you loved me once
imagine how hard this must be
heart and words are trapped tween my teeth
looking up from down here you seem so far away
then i remember its been more than yesterday
remember that you loved me once
third times a charm
but i see nothing but harm
from putting us back together
there used to be a time when id bet we
could weather all kinds of weather
remember that you loved me once
remember it was longer than just one day
remember that you loved me once
and i'll try to remember you that way
trying to let you know
meeting you opened doors and windows
helped me see the world
i bought my heart from a bookstore in germany
you kept it in your pocket
where is it now?
do you know that you still have my heart
where is it now
if i offered you my hand would you put yours in it?
i need another language to explain this
to say that im crazy of you doesnt seem to say enough
its more than bisous bisous
its more than bisous guerinto
its j'adore, its'j'taime, i la la la love you
and id risk it all to tell you
and have you hold my hand
christmas list
i dont need space, i dont need time
i need your hands and your face near mine
i dont need distance, i dont need misplaced blame
i need you back here, for it to be the same
i want simple, i want easy, i want you here wanting to be with me
