Smile, Today

I won’t get the phone

Cause they’re calling me up

Just, to tell me that I’m not okay.

I keep promising myself,

That tomorrow will be better,

And that it’s them taking the chances away.

But all my fears, are real now.

And the bruises I keep avoiding,

Are stinging me all at once.

 

This isn’t is where I’m supposed to be,

Only temporary,

I’m gonna make someone smile today.

Cause everything’s so lonely,

Can you feel me grinning at you,

Can I help you smile, today.

 

Please, make time for me,

To change your life,

I swear I’ll only be a minute.

Okay, keep walking but there’s a million other people,

Looking for help just like you,

And willing to take it from anywhere they can get it.

 

This isn’t is where I’m supposed to be,

Only temporary,

I’m gonna make someone smile today.

Cause everything’s so lonely,

Can you feel me grinning at you,

Can I help you smile, today.

 

And you, darling you,

If I could give you the stars,

They’d be under your arms,

I’m sorry, I can’t reach that far.

And you, darling you,

Will be the only one to make me fall.

This hard.

 

This isn’t is where we’re supposed to be,

Only temporary,

We’re gonna make someone smile today.

Cause everyone’s so lonely,

Can you feel me grinning at you,

Can I help you smile, today.

Never Tell Me Goodbye

Something says I’m too attached.

Cause you’ll move forward

I’ll get left back.

Something says I’m being too honest.

Cause I’ll look stupid when you go.

I wish I was more afraid

To say what I’m gonna say

 

Never tell me goodbye

I’ll never say it back

Won’t ever leave your side

Never tell me goodbye

Don’t ever mean it

Don’t ever go

I’ll be yours forever,

You and me, together,

Let’s go.

Won’t ever say goodbye.

 

Something says you mean it now,

But maybe you won’t.

Got my eyes closed, feeling you out,

I want to but I don’t.

Something says, I’m falling deep.

But I’ll be down, when you leave.

I wish I was more afraid,

To tell you what you mean to me.

 

Never tell me goodbye

I’ll never say it back

Won’t ever leave your side

Never tell me goodbye

Don’t ever mean it

Don’t ever go

I’ll be yours forever,

You and me, together,

Let’s go.

Won’t ever say goodbye.

 

It’s unfair, to ask you, if you still care.

It’s unfair, to ask you, if you still care.

I’ll be yours forever,

You and me together,

Let’s go.

Won’t ever say goodbye.

Took It For Mine

You said I fucked up your life.

But I only fucked with your mind.

Such a smoking gun,

Such a bitten lip,

Like the forbidden fruit,

Without you I wouldn’t exist.

Don’t leave, or tell me you’re gonna,

Cause we both know you’re not that strong.

 

You can’t go find what’s yours,

Cause I took it for mine.

You’ve got no place to go, then stay,

Cause I’ve always got room for your broken smile.

 

You swear you’d be better off,

With someone different.

I say, but who’d get you off,

The way I do.

We both know I’m not kidding,

It’s how we are.

Who would I be, if I didn’t love your every scar.

Don’t leave, or tell me you’re going.

Cause we both know you’re not strong.

 

You can’t go find what’s yours,

Cause I took it for mine.

You’ve got no place to go, then stay,

Cause I’ve always got room for your broken smile.

 

You’d only walk away,

If I pushed you out that door.

Please stay.

You’d only walk away,

If I pushed you out that door,

Please stay.

 

You can’t go find what’s yours,

Cause I took it for mine.

You’ve got no place to go, then stay,

Cause I’ve always got room for your broken smile.

Have it back, if it makes you happy.

But I’ll always have you in my hands.

You’ve got no place to go, so stay,

Cause I’ve always got ways to make you fix that broken smile.

The Nightmare (Wanna Be Your Dream)

It gets hard to feel you in my dreams,

When we’re all black and white, ripped apart at the seams.

Lost track of time, and where I am,

Back to the start or nearing the end.

Lost sight of real, I can only pretend.

 

You’re the nightmare, lying to me,

But I keep your secrets, cause I wanna be your dream.

You’re the nightmare, making me scream,

But I keep coming back, cause I wanna be your dream.

You don’t feel me…

 

It’s time to realize what went wrong,

When I’m shaking, and bleeding, and not sorry at all,

How I got here, where I am,

Lost in your mirrors, here comes the end.

Lost sight of real, I can only pretend.

 

You’re the nightmare, lying to me,

But I keep your secrets, cause I wanna be your dream.

You’re the nightmare, making me scream,

But I keep coming back, cause I wanna be your dream.

You don’t feel me…

 

Maybe this time, you’ll meet me,

Take me to where I belong.

I won’t wake up screaming,

And if I do, I’ll be in your arms.

 

You’re the nightmare, lying to me,

But I keep your secrets, cause I wanna be your dream.

You’re the nightmare, making me scream,

But I keep coming back, cause I wanna be your dream.

You don’t feel me…

Do you feel me?

Cultured Perfection

You speak the tongue of reason

To the queen of idealism

Whisper in my ear again

The words you say are cultured perfection.

Woah, start praying, woah.

Cause darling, they’ll never catch us alive.

 

You sound impressed

But you haven’t seen nothing yet

I’m holding your breath

With my cultured perfection.

 

You meet me at my middle,

But I’ll be late, oh just a little,

Tell it to my heart again,

The words you say are cultured perfection.

Woah, start paying, woah.

Cause darling, you’re setting this on fire.

 

You sound impressed

But you haven’t seen nothing yet

I’m holding your breath

With my cultured perfection.

 

Take my picture,

I’m such a vision,

Take my picture,

Lights on or off?

Take my picture,

It’s so unnatural,

Take my picture,

Lights on or off?

 

You sound impressed,

But you haven’t seen anything yet,

I’m holding your breath,

With my cultured perfection.

 

Cause darling, we’re making this a mess.

They’ll never catch us…alive.
