"Babylon"

"Babylon"


Friday night I'm going nowhere
All the lights are changing green to red
Turning over TV stations
Situations running through my head
Well looking back through time
You know it's clear that I've been blind
I've been a fool
To ever open up my heart
To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule

If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that I was
Giving you was
Never in doubt
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now

Babylon, Babylon

Saturday I'm running wild
And all the lights are changing red to green
Moving through the crowd I'm pushing
Chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream
Only wish that you were here
You know I'm seeing it so clear
I've been afraid
To tell you how I really feel
Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made

If you want it
Come and get it
Crying out loud
The love that I was
Giving you was
Never in doubt
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel
Let go your heart
Let go your head
And feel it now

Babylon, Babylon, Babylon, Babylon, Babylon
Why, oh why, why....

"Back For Good"

"Back For Good"


I guess now it's time for me to give up
I feel it's time
Got a picture of you beside me
Got your lipstick mark still on your coffee cup (oh yeah)
Got a fist of pure emotion
Got a head of shattered dreams
Gotta leave it, gotta leave it all behind now

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
I want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood
I want you back for good

Unaware but underlined I figured out the story
It wasn't good
But in the corner of my mind I celebrated glory
But that was not to be
In the twist of separation you excelled at being free
Can't you find a little room inside for me

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
I want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood
I want you back for good

And we'll be together, this time is forever
We'll be fighting and forever we will be
So complete in our love
We will never be uncovered again

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
I want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood
See I want you back for good

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
You see I want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood
You see I want you back for good

I guess now it's time
To came back for good

"Be Somebody"

"Be Somebody"


My head feels tangled up
like the headphones in my pocket
Two words and you got me
Two nights and you told me that
Once the time is counting down,
it's impossible to stop it
Three words that we need to save
Three weeks till you move away

So go, go oh oh oh oh oh
Your heart has to be followed
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh

'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh)
Gotta be somebody, be someone
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh)
Gotta be somebody, be someone
So please, be somebody with me

Piles of magazines left from two months ago
I'm clinging to old news
Memories I'm scared to loose
Now I find reminders down the sofa and under the bed
Three words could've made you stay
Three words that I left to late

So go, go oh oh oh oh oh
Your heart has to be followed
Woah oh oh oh oh oh

'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh)
Gotta be somebody, be someone
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh)
Gotta be somebody, be someone
So please, be somebody with me

If you feel like running
The grass is greener inside your heart
And I'll be there if it falls apart
Love who you're becoming
Sometimes we win but sometimes we fall
Story still remains untold

So go, go oh oh oh oh oh
Your heart has to be followed
Woah oh oh oh oh oh

'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh)
Gotta be somebody, be someone
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh)
Gotta be somebody, be someone
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh)
Gotta be somebody, be someone
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh)
Gotta be somebody, be someone
So please, be somebody with me

(originally by Sean Kingston)

"Beautiful Girls (Stand By Me)"
(originally by Sean Kingston)



You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over

See it started at the park
Used to chill at the dark
Oh when you took my heart
That's when we fell apart
Coz we both thought
That love lasts forever

See it's very divine,
One of a kind
But you mush up my mind
You walk to get declined
Oh Lord...
My baby is driving me crazy

You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do your dirt
They'll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it's over

They say we're too young
To get ourselves sprung
Oh we didn't care
We made it very clear
And they also said
That we couldn't last together

See it's very divine
One of a kind
But you mush up my mind
You walk to get declined
Oh Lord...
My baby is driving me crazy

You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do your dirt
They'll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it's over

When the night, has come
And the land is dark
And the moon
Is the only light we'll see
No I won't, be afraid
No I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.

"Because Of You"

"Because Of You"


Want to but I can't help it
I love the way it feels
Just got me stuck between my fantasy and what is real
I need it when I want it
I want it when I don't
Tell myself I'll stop every day
Knowing that I won't

I got a problem and I... (Don't know what to do about it)
Even if I did I don't know if I would quit but I doubt it
I'm taken by the thought of it...

And I know this much is true
Baby, you have become my addiction
I'm so strung out on you
I can barely move
But I like it

And it's all because of you [3x]
And it's all because...
Never get enough
She's the sweetest drug

Think of it every second
I can't get nothing done
Only concern is the next time
I'm gonna get me some
Know I should stay away from
'Cause it's no good for me
I try and try but my obsession
Won't let me leave

I got a problem and I... (Don't know what to do about it)
Even if I did I don't know if I would quit but I doubt it
I'm taken by the thought of it...

And I know this much is true
Baby, you have become my addiction
I'm so strung out on you
I can barely move
But I like it

And it's all because of you [3x]
And it's all because...
Never get enough
She's the sweetest drug

Ain't no doubt
So strung out [2x]
Over you, over you, over you

Because of you
And it's all because of you
Never get enough
She's the sweetest drug
She's the sweetest drug

"Before It's Too Late"
(originally by The Goo Goo Dolls)



Wonder through fiction to look for the truth
Buried beneath all the lies
And I stood at a distance
To feel who you are
Hiding myself in your eyes

And hold on before it's too late
Until we leave this behind
Don't fall just be who you are
It's all that we need in our lives

And the risk that might break you
Is the one that would save
A life you don't live is still lost
So stand on the edge with me
Hold back your fear and see
Nothing is real 'til it's gone

Hold on before it's too late
Until we leave this behind
Don't fall just be who you are
It's all that we need in our lives

So live like you mean it
Love 'til you feel it
It's all that we need in our lives
So stand on the edge with me
Hold back your fear and see
Nothing is real 'til it's gone

Hold on before it's too late
Until we leave this behind
Don't fall just be who you are
It's all that we need in our lives

Hold on before it's too late
Until we leave this behind
Don't fall just be who you are
It's all that we need in our lives

It's all that we need in our lives
It's all that I need in my life

"Best Of You"
(originally by Foo Fighters)

"Best Of You"
(originally by Foo Fighters)



I've got another confession to make
I'm your fool
Everyone's got their to break
Holding you

Were you born to resist or be abused?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Are you gone and onto something new?
I needed somewhere to hang my head
Without your noose
You gave me something that I didn't have
But had no use
I was to weak to give in
Too strong to lose
My heart is under arrest again
But I'll break loose
My head is giving me life or death
But I can't choose
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
It's real, the pain you feel
You trust
You must confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Woah...

Oh...Oh...Oh...Woah..

I've got another confession my friend
I'm no fool
I'm getting tired of starting again
Somewhere new

Were you born to resist or be abused?
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
It's real, the pain you feel
You trust
You must confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

"Better In Time"

"Better In Time"


It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through

I Going, coming
Thought I heard a knock
Who's there? No one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realize that I really didn't know
If you didn't notice you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning
To love again
All that I know is
I'm gonna be OK

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
Even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

I couldn't turn on the tv
Without something there to remind me
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings

If I'm dreaming
Don't wanna laugh (Hurt my feelings)
But that's the past (I believe in)
And I know that time will heal it
If you didn't notice this you meant everything
(Quickly I'm learning)
Ooooh to love again (all that I know is)
I'm gon' be OK

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
Even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
Even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time
It'll all get better in time
It'll all get better in time

"Bleeding Love"

"Bleeding Love"


Closed off from love
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen

But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melts into the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm going crazy

[Chorus]
But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal
Is to keep me from falling

But nothings greater
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks that I'm going crazy, maybe, maybe

[Chorus]

And it's draining all of me
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see

[Chorus]

"Breakeven (Falling To Pieces)"

"Breakeven (Falling To Pieces)"


I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in
Cause I got time while she got freedom
Cause when a heart breaks no it don't break even
Her best days will be some of my worst
She finally met a man that's gonna put her 1st
While I'm wide awake she's no trouble sleeping
Cause when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven
What am I suppose to do when the best part of me was always you
What am I suppose to say when I'm all choked up and your ok
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
They say bad things happen for a reason
But not wise words gonna stop the bleeding
Cause she's moved on while I'm still grieving
Cause when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven
What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you
What am I suppose say when I'm all choked up and your ok
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other ones leaving
Cause when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)
You got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame.
Now I'm tryna make sense of what little remains
Cause you left me with no love, no love to my name.
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in
Cause I got time while she got freedom
Cause when a heart breaks no it don't break even
What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you
What am I suppose to say when I'm all choked up and your ok
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other ones leaving
Cause when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)
