Little People

Imagine if your heart was bigger than your head?

Imagine in your hand ever tried to fit in mine?

Imagine we could both fit comfortably in my bed?

I’m sure you’ve imagined that from time to time.

 

Imagine if your heart was bigger than your head?

Imagine the size of your pride after a night of apologies?

Imagine you eating all the words you ever said.

Imagine this clown car romance let either of us breathe.

 

Cause we’re all just little people,

In an ocean,

When you try to make me small,

You look smaller than think you are,

Cause we’re all just little people,

In a maze of mass emotion,

And you try to make me smaller,

Than even I think I am.

 

Imagine your feet fit in my shoes?

Imagine the size of the stars up close?

Imagine the planets learned to sing the blues.

Imagine you never sat so close.

 

Imagine your feet fit in my shoes?

Imagine size didn’t matter to anybody anymore

Imagine me in your palm, oh the size of your thumb.

Imagine I was big enough to scale your four walls.

 

Cause we’re all just little people,

In an ocean,

When you try to make me small,

You look smaller than think you are,

Cause we’re all just little people,

In a maze of mass emotion,

And you try to make me smaller,

Than even I think I am.

Oh, the size of your…thumb.

Not What We’re Used To

I wouldn’t touch that red button,

If I were you,

Though it could be the panic, that this room could use,

Cause we’re all half dead,

Eyes glazed over, with our empty heads,

Cause it’s all almost over.

 

I’m a quick one liner, with such bad habits,

Gonna be an all nighter for you.

Can I keep you from your nightmares,

It’s okay if you stare,

Cause I know I’m not what youre used to.

 

Don’t look the grey in the face,

It could probably kill,

Though it could be that kinda change that could spin the whole room,

Cause we’re all half dead,

Eyes glazed over, with our heads,

Is it all almost over, yet.

 

I’m a quick one liner, with such bad habits,

Gonna be an all nighter for you.

Can I keep you from your nightmares,

It’s okay if you stare,

Cause I know I’m not what youre used to.

 

If the door was unlocked, would you run with me?

If the option arrived, and provided time,

Would you say it’s fate, time to go be wild, now.

Let them look you up and down,

Change isn’t always subtle.

 

I’m a quick one liner, with such bad habits,

Gonna be an all nighter for you.

Can I keep you from your nightmares,

It’s okay if you stare,

Cause I know I’m not what youre used to.

Let’s Be Heroes (Into My Comic Book)

I’ve got the attitude and get up to

Pull you into my comic book,

Let’s rewrite the story back to front.

I can be your Lois Lane, unless you prefer me,

To dress up in a role more like myself.

 

Let’s be the heroes, if only of our dreams,

If I be the villain, would you promise to chase me?

Around our new society, I can save the town,

When you try to burn it down,

Let’s be the heroes.

 

I’ve got the experience and background to

Pull you into this comic book

Let’s heat up the story back to front,

I can be your Spider Girl, unless you prefer me,

Hey wait, that’s a role more like myself.

 

Let’s be the heroes, if only of our dreams,

If I be the villain, would you promise to chase me?

Around our new society, I can save the town,

When you try to burn it down,

Let’s be the heroes.

Would you promise to chase me?

Around Gotham City, all around metropolis,

I’ll cause the havoc so you bring the damage control,

You be the bad guy and i’ll bring the masks, they’ll never know,

We’ll save the day, take the pictures, get a key,

Hey wait, is that a role unlike ourselves?

 

Let’s be the heroes, if only of our dreams,

If I be the villain, would you promise to chase me?

Around our new society, I can save the town,

When you try to burn it down,

Let’s be the heroes.

Give

You sing to the snakes in my sleep.

You keep me weak on my feet,

And the world you’ve built us,

Is stronger that I could’ve dreamed.

I dance beneath your sky,

Cause sun or stars, rain or shine,

I wanna be your dream,

The one you wanna replay every night.

 

Give it to me, again.

Give me your poison kiss,

Your every wish,

Your forgivable sins,

Your expectation list,

Your unmistakable evilness,

Whoever said ignorance is bliss,

Has never been touched by a love like this.

Give it to me, again.

 

You make the blood pool in my cheeks,

You keep me hot and cool and oh so happy.

And the world we live in here,

Is everything I could never find but always seek.

And everything you say keeps me wide awake,

Well into the night, in this state I stay,

I warn myself not to go too far,

But I love the one I’m with, it’s not hard to say.

 

Give it to me, again.

Give me your poison kiss,

Your every wish,

Your forgivable sins,

Your expectation list,

Your unmistakable evilness,

Whoever said ignorance is bliss,

Has never been touched by a love like this.

Give it to me, again.

 

And if one day, you ever go,

I’ll be the worse for this,

I’ll know what I’ll miss,

But I wanna say before I forget,

I love you.

 

Give it to me, again.

Give me your poison kiss,

Your every wish,

Your forgivable sins,

Your expectation list,

Your unmistakable evilness,

Whoever said ignorance is bliss,

Has never been touched by a love like this.

Give it to me, again.

Boys Like You

Come on and touch me,

Really feel me,

Hear me, taste me, breathe me in,

Are you scared yet?

Are you afraid?

Cause girls like me make meals

Out of boys like you.

Closer

Now you’ve touched my fears with your own two hands,

When I say I’m scared, will you, understand?

I’ve never been closer to falling apart,

But I’ve never felt closer to somebody else’s heart.

 

Now you’ve the seen dark with your own two eyes,

Left the poison on your tongue, told you not to bite,

I’ve never been closer to the edge of the fall,

But I’ve never felt closer to being worth anything at all.

 

It must be something that you do,

Makes it so easy to fall right into you,

You must be something unheard of something true,

Cause I find it so difficult to stop smiling at you.

 

Now you’ve tasted blood that’s still in my mouth,

Now I find it hard to think, breath without,

I’ve never felt farther from being alone,

But I’ve never felt farther from anything known.

 

Now you’ve cooled the cuts that still mark up my skin,

Underneath your bold actions, there’s a good, true intent.

I’ve never felt farther but anything sane,

But I’ve never felt farther from needing a hole in my brain.

 

It must be something that you do,

Makes it so easy to fall right into you,

You must be something unheard of something true,

Cause I find it so difficult to stop smiling at you.

 

It must be something that you do,

Makes it so easy to fall right into you,

You must be something unheard of something true,

Cause I find it so difficult to stop smiling at you.

Kaleidoscopes

This kaleidoscopes been putting you in bad light,

I must be looking through the wrong way,

These drinks are finally getting to my eyes,

Cause I swore I just saw, what I never wanted to see.

 

It must be me imagining things at midnight,

Cause I swore I saw you out there with somebody else,

It must be me seeing things in this light,

Cause I hope I didn’t see you, out there with somebody else.

 

The shadows on your face make it hard to mistake,

And I think about walking over.

The smile she’s faking says it’s more about the after party,

Less about making sure what you’re doing is worth this.

 

It must be imagining things at midnight,

Cause I swore I saw you out there, with somebody else,

It must be me seeing things in this light,

Cause I hope I didn’t see you, out there with somebody else.

 

I walk over shake your hand, like we’ve met for the first time,

Guess I wasn’t crazy, can you believe what you are seeing?

Hello, do you remember me? That’s all you’ve got left to do with me.

It wasn’t this kaleidoscope, you put yourself in a bad light.

It wasn’t this kaleidoscope, it wasn’t this kaleidoscope.

Missing You Now

If I seized every chance to tell you how I felt,

Let everything you say clearly make me melt,

Would I still be missing you now?

If I told you everyday, a thousands ways,

I hoped you would always stay,

Would I still be missing you now?

 

The chapter’s closed, the story’s been told,

The ending not quite what I had wanted.

The mistake’s been made, I’ll forget everything,

And you’ll just be another bad dream.

 

If you never left your smiles on the side of my face,

And you told me how easy I’d be to replace,

Would I still be missing you now?

If I forgot that summer where we loved,

And remembered every other girl you ever talked of,

Would I still be missing you now?

 

If I counted every let down just as much as every pick up,

If I remembered all the bad parts and never ever smiled,

Would I still be missing you now?

If I let myself forgot your name and lost myself in somebody else,

Wonder if I’ll ever love the same, if I did it again,

Would I still be missing you now?

 

The chapter’s closed, the story’s been told,

The ending not quite what I had wanted.

The mistake’s been made, I’ll forget everything,

And you’ll just be another bad dream.

Stupid Mouth

I used to pray to God to listen,

Now I hope he doesn’t hear,

Cause my multi purposed tongue,

Has gotten worse for wear.

The things it says aren’t nice,

In fact they’re pretty nasty,

Unless you wanna take this outside,

You should probably sit back down,

 

This stupid mouth, this stupid mouth,

It’s more trouble that it’s worth, I’m afraid.

This stupid mouth, this stupid mouth,

Wastes so much time talking about you,

This stupid mouth.

 

I used to scream for you to hear me,

Now I say a soft goodbye,

I’ve embarrassed myself by staying so long,

But we were talking all the while.

I know I’ve said some pretty bad things,

One or two I didn’t mean,

But if it’s true than why shouldn’t it form on my lips?

 

This stupid mouth, this stupid mouth,

It’s more trouble that it’s worth, I’m afraid.

This stupid mouth, this stupid mouth,

Wastes so much time talking about you,

This stupid mouth.

 

I guess the only way to shut me up

Is to occupy this mouth…

Kiss me. Woah. Come and taste my battle cries,

Kiss me. Win the war, stop the fight,

Kiss me. One more time.

 

This stupid mouth, this stupid mouth,

It’s more trouble that it’s worth, I’m afraid.

This stupid mouth, this stupid mouth,

Wastes no time in talking about you,

This stupid mouth.

Happy Songs

Do they call it acoustic?

When you can hear my heart breaking in the background,

When the volumes turned up but it’s a silent sound,

That escapes you when you think they’re talking about your soul.

How did they know?

How did they know?

Your love is broken, you watched crawl away,

It feels like they sang to you today.

 

Do they call it ironic?

When you can sit and listen to somebody’s story

Written perfectly for you?

It doesn’t matter what they call it, cause it exists,

And it’s inside you, and you think that they’re talking about your soul.

How did they know?

How did they know?

Your heart is broken you watched him crawl away,

It feels like they’re singing to you today.

 

That little piece of confidence like you’re not all alone,

There’s somebody out there, who calls the messed up a state a home,

And they knew how to put it in words,

Make it heard,

That they’re hurting too, and you’ll all make it through,

Cause sometimes there’s those happy songs,

And unhappy people don’t write happy songs.

How did they know?

How did they know?

Your heart was broken but they healed it almost right,

It felt like they were singing to you, you knew that I was singing to you,

That night.

If You’re Lonely, Find Me

I’m thinking unforgiven,

I’m thinking unrequited,

I’m thinking overrated,

I’m thinking bout you tonight.

I’m thinking so mistreated,

I’m thinking record lows,

I’m thinking long goodbyes and,

I’m thinking short hellos.

 

Cause you haven’t heard a word I’ve said all night,

I won’t sit here, wait to say good night.

 

If you’re lonely, you know where to find me,

When I’m broken, I can be so inviting,

My door’s open, to you any time,

If you’re lonely, you know where to find me.

 

You’re thinking homicidal,

You’re thinking wasted time,

You’re thinking second chances,

You’re thinking bout me tonight.

You’re thinking crazy bitch,

I’m thinking maybe he’s right,

You’re thinking one more easy lover,

You’re thinking one more liar.

 

Cause you haven’t heard a word I’ve said all night,

I won’t sit here, wait to say good night.

 

If you’re lonely, you know where to find me,

When I’m broken, I can be so inviting,

My door’s open, to you any time,

If you’re lonely, you know where to find me.
