Wishful Thinking

I wish that I had a pretty smile
I could impress all your friends
and make them want to come to my birthday
I wish that I had a pretty laugh
I could laugh at all your jokes
in front of them
cuz I know how much it means to you
to have their approval
I wish that I had a pretty face
I could be a model citizen
and watch the accolades fall around me
I wish that I had a magic spell
that would make you think everything I did
was perfect
cuz you know how much it means to me
to have your approval
tick tock tick tock
goes the clock inside my heart
and it gets louder every minute you're away
tick tock tick tock
goes the clock inside my head
and it gets louder every second, every day
I wish that I had a fancy job
where people brought me lattes
with an extra shot of power
I wish that I went to more parties
instead of writing songs
at absurd hours
and I'm waiting for my time to come
tick tock tick tock
goes the clock inside my heart
and it gets louder every minute, every day
tick tock tick tock
goes the clock inside my head
and it gets louder every minute that I stay
so I'm counting down the hours
while my imagination runs for the hills
and my fantasies are so familiar
they feel real
tick tock tick tock
goes the clock inside my heart
and it gets louder every second, every day
tick tock tick tock
goes the clock inside my head
and it gets louder every minute that I stay
and will it ever go away?
Will it ever be okay?
And if I start again can I make it feel the same?
Will I ever be okay?
And if I start again can I do it my own way?

All About Temptation
03:38
|
|||
|
Sometimes I like to get wild
sometimes I like to get crazy
sometimes I take too many shots
and take off all my clothes in a parking lot
sometimes I like to smoke cigars
sometimes I like to pick up men in bars
sometimes I like to eat all the cookies in the pantry
I leave nothing for my family.
Temptation
walking a fine line
temptation
just when I was feelin'
just when I was feelin' fine.
Sometimes I add extra salt to my fries (how naughty)
even though they tell me it goes straight to my thighs (straight to your thighs darling)
sometimes I sit on the couch all day
and watch the T.V. play (ugh, there's nothing on)
sometimes I like to play hookey
and I don't even have a job (jobless)
sometimes I like to flirt with damaged people
because they turn me on...
stay awake and wait for my signal
when you're weak and vulnerable
that is when I will seduce you
that is when I'll have control.
Sometimes I stand on the edge of a cliff
and I'm tempted to jump off of it
I heard on a podcast once that's normal
so I guess there's nothing wrong with me.
Why not get a little crazy?
Why not have a little fun?
Why not smoke that cigarette and forget about
temptation
cast under a spell
temptation
can you tell?
I think I'll struggle with this all my life
but you know what? I don't even mind
cuz temptation
can be a hell of a good time.

I Need a Friend

I need guidance again
For me the answers aren't just blowing in the wind
I need a helping hand
Some days I just need to depend
I need a friend again, again
Again.
I need comfort again
Some days I can't go 10 minutes without something to ease my head
I need a friend.
I need a lover again
I need someone to share this bed
I need a lover again
I need someone to just pretend
I need a lover again again again
I need guidance again
For me the answers aren't just blowin' in the wind
I need a helping hand
Some days I just need to depend.
I need a friend
again
again
again!

Bone dry
that's how you left it
bullseye
right on the mark
force fed
stuffed on the occasion
we're all
gathered for tonight
don't blink
surely you'll miss it
don't think
show me your die
sip drink
don't be so hasty
spirits for you and I
told you this place is a prideland
told you this place is an island
warned you this place is a prideland
warned you this place is an island
deep end
can't take the pressure
unload
can't take the heat
wise guy
watch your tongue
I've seen that you can fight
I'm curious if you can run
away
from me
this is bounty
this is dust
this is fever
this is lust
don't blink
surely you'll miss it
don't think
show me your die
sip drink
don't be so hasty
spirits for you and I
told you this place is a prideland
warned you this place is an island
deep end
can't take the pressure
unload
can't take the heat
wise guy
watch your tongue
I've seen that you can fight
I'm curious if you can run
away
from me
don't blink
surely you'll miss it
don't think
show me your die
sip drink
don't be so hasty
spirits for you and I
this is bounty
this is dust
this is fever
this is lust.

I never thought that I’d
be dancing in your ocean
open up my eyes
surprise
never thought that I
could fall in love like this
I’m such a simple kid
I’m scared
of the consequence
of getting close to you
this I will admit
I pray
for a little grace
cuz there’s no handbook for this
we take it kiss by kiss
Oh I never thought that I’d
be dancing in your ocean
open up my eyes
surprise
never thought that I
could fall in love like this
I’m such a simple kid
Take me as I am
just don’t take me over
Love me as I am
just don’t take me down
cuz I’m feelin’ more sober than ever
and I refuse to drown
Taken by your shades of gold and silver
tempted by the promises that you don’t keep
and I wish that I could say I’m stronger now than ever
but I still feel so weak
Never thought that I’d
be fallin' in your ocean
open up my eyes
surprise
never thought that I
could fall in love like this
I’m such a simple kid
Tempted by your shades of gold and silver
tempted by the promises that you don’t keep
and I wish that I could say I’m stronger now than ever
but I still feel so weak
Never thought that I
could fall in love like this
I’m such a simple kid
never thought that I'd
be dancing in your ocean
open up my eyes…

Lazy Folk Song

We were so miserable
we were so sad
we had an answer and it
wasn't that bad.
We were so angry
we were so afraid
I stood by you
you stood by me
we never changed.
We were so lonely
we were so forlorn
it's all a dream now
and you don't even treat me with scorn,
my god it's like you've been reborn,
my god it's like you've been reborn.
Where is the drama?
Where is the shame?
You're movin' on
movin' through
in a different way.
We were so miserable
we would fight all the time,
now you move with grace
wanna hold me hand
tell me everything's fine
hold my hand tell me everything's fine.
It's not okay dear.
You are actin' so strange.
What kinda person thinks they only have themselves to blame?
They only have themselves to blame.
What's all this talk of God?
You sound insane.
Now you are kind to yourself
my you really have changed.
We were so miserable
life was mundane
we kept on answering
to everything the same
to everything the same.
Why'd you have to leave me?
Where did you go?
No longer sabotagin'
everything that helps you grow
tryin' to run the show.
It's not okay dear.
You're actin' so strange.
What kinda person thinks they only have themselves to blame?
They only have themselves to blame...
Where is the drama?
Where is the shame?
You're movin' on
movin' through
in a different way
livin' life in a different way
livin' life in a different way
