"Let Me Fall"
(from "Songs From Instant Star" soundtrack)



I feel chained, chained down
You shoved me to the ground
I can't run, I can't shout
Just let me out

So heartless, this couldn't mean less
Gonna push it in your face
I'm only human
And I've got something to say

[Chorus]
Let me rise, let me fall
Let me breathe
I wanna lose control, I'm not afraid to lose it all
Let me break, let me crawl
Cause I'll get back up again if you let me fall

If I burn down in this fire
Well, I got myself to blame
I can't stop or give it up
I need to feel the pain

Can you hear me?
Don't come near me
You'll just get in my way
I'm only human
And there's nothing you can say

[Chorus]
Let me rise, let me fall
Let me breathe
I wanna lose control, I'm not afraid to lose it all
Let me break, let me crawl
Cause I will get up again if you let me fall

Say you know who I am
And what I'm about
Then you'll understand that I feel alone
I live my own life

[Chorus]
Let me rise, let me fall
Let me breathe
I wanna lose control, I'm not afraid to lose it all
Let me break, let me crawl
Cause I will get up again if you let me fall

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
If you let me fall
If you let me
If you let me fall
If you let me fall

I will get up again if you let me fall
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
If you let me fall
If you let me fall
Let me fall

"Liar Liar"
(from "Songs From Instant Star Two" soundtrack)



You said I was your everything,
You said I was the one,
You played me like a radio,
You use to love that I had no shame.

Pour my pain into words,
Hold my hand to the flame.

[Chorus:]
Tell me you'll love me like a star
Tell me you'll want me wherever you are,
Tell me you'll breathe me until your last breath.
Liar, liar, oh, liar, liar.

Bit by bit I feel the draft,
Just sit back and watch it burn,
Hold your ice up to my veins,
Call out, call out my name

Tell me you'll love me like a star,
Tell me you'll want me wherever you are,
Tell me you'll breathe me until your last breath.
Liar, liar,
Oh, liar, liar, liar, liar, oh, liar, liar

[Chorus x2]

Liar, liar.

"Lighter Than Air"


Make no mistake
I know who you are
I feel what you feel
I’m under the same sky
Under this spell
It’s making me high
Still bringing me down
Taking me over
I’m right in the way
Between all the lines
Mountains do what I say the higher I climb
I’m saving some lives
I’m using my nine
Now for once all is fair
As if you even care
It’s lighter than the air
And if you’re not prepared
It’s lighter than the air
There wasn’t a book
That taught you to run
To learn how to lie
When to cover your eyes
Nobody will win
You learn to survive
When to fall on your knees and swallow your pride
It’s always the same
The giving is free
And the music will play
But the dancing is for me
As if you even care
It’s lighter than the air
And if you’re not prepared
It’s lighter than the air
I’m on the way to where you are
I’m on the way to where you are
[Chorus]

"Look At Those Eyes"


Oh my look at those eyes
Look at the trouble that they hide inside
I see the flicker of the pain on the rise
Oh my look at those eyes

Maybe they're like mine
Things I wish I did not see
I push away all the dirt and debris
But what'll be left of me

No, tell me it's not so
That people will come and they'll go
We push away all the love that we know
No, tell me it's not so

Like in the eye of a storm
You're changing form
You feel the pull of the time ticking by
Oh my look at these times

But look at who's right beside you
When you're alone barely holding on
You leave your worries behind you
You're not alone in the dark
But look at who's right beside you
You're looking back thinking oh my God
That somebody's never left you
You're not alone in the dark
You're not alone in the dark

Oh my look at these skies
Look at the trouble that they hide inside
I see the flicker of the pain on the rise
Oh my look at these skies

Soothing like a lullaby
I don't wanna fight this fight
You feel the weight of the world on your mind
We leave it all behind

But look at who's right beside you
When you're alone barely holding on
You leave your worries behind you
You're not alone in the dark
But look at who's right beside you
You're looking back thinking oh my God
That somebody's never left you
You're not alone in the dark

You're not
You're not
You're not
You're not
You're not
You're not
You're not
You're not alone
You're not alone

It's been a long way long way long way home
It's been a lonely lonely lonely road
It's been a long time I can't find
So long I'm gonna lose my mind
It's been a long way long way long way home

But look at who's right beside you
When you're alone barely holding on
You leave your worries behind you
You're not alone in the dark
But look at who's right beside you
You're looking back thinking oh my God
That somebody's never left you
You're not alone in the dark

It's been a long
It's been a long way home
It's been a long way home
You're not alone in the dark

Oh my look at those eyes
Look at the trouble that they hide inside
I see the flicker of the pain on the rise
Oh my look at those eyes

Maybe they're like mine
Things I wish I did not see
I push away all the dirt and debris
But what'll be left of me

"Lost & Found"


Gone away underwater
Gone away underwater
Gonna stay under the weather
Gonna stay under the weather
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

In the cradle cat's got your money
Bombs are dropping
Police are coming
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Telling tales
Feels like you're running
Never stopping
Oh, giving you nothing
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Turning tables, turning the town
Wait until they've all taken you down
Waiting in lost and found

Who's gonna say
That you can't be walking on water
La, la, la, la, la

On the hill looking over
On the hill leaning away
Trying to sail over land
Make a stand, I got your hand
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

In the cradle cat's got your money
Bombs are dropping, police are coming
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Telling tales, feels like your running

Turning tables, turning the town
Wait until they've all taken you down

Walk on water (ooh, ooh)

You're walking on water
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

In the cradle cat's got your money

"Man Like You"


Don't take pride to fall in love
Nothing else I need to fulfill my dreams
You're by my side
I feel alive, you're by my side

I recognize, no matter what
We don't have a lot
But the whole wide world is ours
You give enough, you give me love

You give it heart, you wanna please her
Turn a hater into a believer
What would I give to have a man like you
What would I give to have a man like you
Ooh, wait a minute I do

Don't need to try, don't need to hide
It's so natural
It's the way it feels with you and I
You're by my side, I feel alive

You get the Jack, you bring the fever
Boy you are higher, it's you that I admire
It is true
It don't take much to fall in love with you

You give it heart, you wanna please her
Turn a hater into a believer
What would I give to have a man like you
What would I give to have a man like you

You make it right, you make it good
And you doing everything you should
What would I give to have a man like you
A man that always seems to follow through

What would I give to have a man like you
Ooh

You give it heart, you wanna please her
Turn a hater into a believer
What would I give to have a man like you
Hm, wait a minute I do
I got a man like you

"Mary"


Mary doesn't like nobody
She a real sad case
See Mary's like her lucky charms
Ya Mary doesn't know her place

The girl can't sleep
That Mary she can be real weak
She's got a heart of gold
But Mary thinks she's getting old

See Mary doesn't know somebody
Loves her more than life itself
She doesn't know somebody
Keeps a picture of her on their shelf

Mary doesn't know somebody
See's her eyes and begins to melt
Mary we'll wait
It's not too late

She doesn't know what she's missing
All the boys she'd be kissing
But she's deep in her head
C'mon Mary get your ass out of bed

I know I've read it in a story
But Mary never seems to bore me
She doesn't want to belong
Her mission is to prove you wrong

[Chorus]

Mary will come back someday
She'll find a way
There will come a day, I know
Mary will know what to do
She's breaking through

"Me Out Of Me"
(from "Songs From Instant Star" soundtrack)



Why you always trying to make me something that I don't wanna be?
Ooo, push me over, make me over, try to make a joke out of me
There's something you should know

There's something you will see
You can't turn down cuz I'm breakin free ya

[Chorus]
You just can't take the me out of me
Cuz that's what I need the world to see
You just can't take the me out of me
Oh there's no one else I'd rather be

I won't change my hair, I don't care if you call me a freak (freak)
Won't change my attitude, no I'll never change the way that I speak
There's something you should know
I won't change no I won't let go
There's something you will see
You can't turn down cuz I'm breakin free ya

[Chorus]
You just can't take the me out of me
Cuz that's what I need the world to see, ya
You just can't take the me out of me

"Mr. Jones"


Mr. Jones in the middle of the door
Stepping in to step out
He's in town, he doesn't make a sound
What's this, what is this about

Oh, I figured it out but I'm a little unsure
I can't sleep here tonight
Won't ask, do I really wanna know
What Jones was doing last night

What happened to the black suitcase
In the middle of the dark staircase
Where he's hiding and acting like nothing is wrong
Where'd he go?
There's he goes
Mr. Jones suddenly gone

Fine dine better wine then the rest
He's got looks to kill
In touch, but never too much
Oh no alone left with the bill

Black hat, cadillac, lots of cash
Lots at stake
Quick wits got a room at The Ritz
Can't judge a man by what he makes

What happened to the black suitcase
In the middle of the dark staircase
Where he's hiding and acting like nothing is wrong
Where'd he go?
There's he goes
Mr. Jones suddenly gone

You wanna do you do you wanna
Piranha p-p-piranha
You wanna do you do you wanna
Piranha p-p-piranha

Piranha
Do you do you
I don't really wanna
Piranha p-p-piranha
Sleep without piranha
Do you wanna do you do you
I don't really wanna
You wanna Mr. Jones
Shhhh...
What happened to the black suitcase
In the middle of the dark staircase
Where he's hiding and acting like nothing is wrong
Where'd he go?
There's he goes
Mr. Jones suddenly gone

What happened to the black suitcase
In the middle of the dark staircase
Where he's hiding and acting like nothing is wrong
Where'd he go?
There's he goes
Mr. Jones suddenly gone

Do you wanna
Do you do you
I don't really wanna
Piranha p-p-piranha
Sleep without piranha
Do you wanna do you do you
I don't really wanna
Piranha p-p-piranha
Sleep without piranha
Do you wanna do you do you
I don't really wanna
Piranha p-p-piranha
Sleep without piranha
Do you wanna do you do you
Sleep without piranha
You wanna Mr. Jones
