UNKNOWN
It starts out slow there you go you keep a steady pace a straight face it’s all in place
For you to take it to break it to make it do what you will but you cannot keep standing still
Even with the bouts of doubt in yourself, there’s nobody else to get you out of this
Mess this stressful situation, same position always stationed. You’ve got to get on up
Before staying down becomes all too familiar, I know how much you like to take the easy way out
Yes I can see you’re barely breathing much like the rest of us they call it even ground
But you found it's better to walk alone
You're only elsewhere, not gone
Lost with the words to your old song
That once belonged in time to your mind
That you let slip at your own discretion
And I will not forget to mention
That you forget your bad intentions
You will disregard the past
A funny thing indeed I found it easily in my dreams and in reality
And now I see it coming for you my dear don’t you be here when it nears
But even when less your questions are clear you don’t interfere you keep it running that race
You made that’s your creation, your own time that you’ve been wasting
I see you come and go ever so slow, these days I guess you’re outweighed
Trouble at bay you stand in slow motion waiting for a moment
Such a deceiving notion, when you realise the moment is broken
But there is no doubt you will ignore
You're only lonely, but not alone
You're apprehensive of the unknown
But I won't wait all day to watch you waste away
You're making the least of it and
At The least you could admit
You like to act as if again you’ve missed
The only thing that you see fit.. ..The least resisting easy commitment
And I would like your fist to kiss your lips so you can witness just how sad it is
To see yourself submit like this.
It starts out slow there you go you keep a steady pace a straight face it’s all in place
For you to take it to break it to make it do what you will but you cannot keep standing still
Even with the bouts of doubt in yourself, there’s nobody else to get you out of this
Mess this stressful situation, same position always stationed.

NO NOTICE
Without any notice, all of a sudden then without warning, I’m Back where I began
Thought I’d got it right, not for the first time, but I’m not surprised
That nothing went according to plan. Was it wrong of me to believe
That this time it would be easy? I knew better to fall for that again
Such a sad sight indeed, something so unforseen, and I’m back where I began
I’m a quick start, foolish hearted, easy target, printed in my skin
They aren’t far behind but I don’t mind I always let them win
Two of a kind is you and I, you make it easier for me to take the easy way down
Beware of the quiet, it can be violent, sneak up in silence,
So suddenly, you’re all out of time. You think how and when, you let this begin
You realise and grin cos the worlds left you behind
I’m a quick start, foolish hearted, easy target, printed in my skin
They aren’t far behind but I don’t mind I always let them win
Two of a kind is you and I, you make it easier for me to take the easy way down
Without any notice, all of a sudden then without warning, I’m Back where I began
And now it’s starting to show, the older, my bones grow
I’m certain that I’ll do it again
I’m a quick start, foolish hearted, easy target, printed in my skin
They aren’t far behind but I don’t mind I always let them win
Two of a kind is you and I, you make it easier for me to take the easy way.

BORED GAMES
Condescending compliments you wonder why I never trust a word you say, hey hey
Think it goes over my head, I wish that I was so mislead, a silly girl, no way
Been playing along thinking you’d enjoy the power struggle
Again I am wrong acting that way got us both in trouble
Hindsight has its funny way, of showing up when it’s too late, the easy road it takes
But I’m still up for playing your game, and If you like I’ll wear all of the blame
And when I wonder why I wonder you’re my losing streak
I know that there ain't really nothing I can do for it and at best
Maybe I could steal a little lie, it’s funny how they keep me going for a little while and I
I know that nothing ever comes easy, but tell me when you think that it will finally come to me
My love, am I not good enough for you? Oh my love, am I not good enough for you?
Secret number and address you leave around for me to guess just what indeed you’ve done
Nothing you won’t try to hide as if you’re wanting me to find I’m not the only one
Was playing it down thinking I should try a little harder
But what it’s become I can see it now you’re out of order
Wonder just how much I’ll take before that something for you breaks
I feel it come my way
But I’m still up for playing your game, and If you like I’ll wear all of the blame
And when I realise that my love was made for you alone
I knew I got myself into a territory unknown
Is that why you only see me as opportunity
Don’t break my heart unless you do intend to break it endlessly
And I know you know I’m willing to wait forever
Don’t you think it’s cruel for you to be that clever
I’m all too happy to keep playing games, if the game is built for two and the players never change
But no, I get the feeling you don’t care too much
I think you only care for the touch and
I get the feeling I’m the only one and I’m pretty sure you’re only in it for the fun, well
I’m finally starting to see the truth, boy I really think I’m starting to dislike you
I guess my love it had a breaking point and it seems you found breaking it not very hard to do at all
Well I have got some news for you
Oh my love, I’m more than good enough for you.

A pretty face well she just looks so innocent
But what she’s hiding right behind you know I’m all to glad to tell
You think she’s oh so sweet she probably tastes like cinnamon
But then she’ll come and whisper something in your ear to make you stop and think
Oh my, did she really just say that?
I feel a little violated
Her dirty mouth has me sedated
I’m lusting for disgusting Shanel
You’ve got to know her, let her in closer
I’m lusting for disgusting Shanel
I see at times her eyes they do light up,
She can’t help but get excited when she hears that one word
Fuck, a lot of people are gonna wanna meet her now
She’s a special type of woman
A fun surprise without no warning
She leaves you awkward thinking what the hell do I do now
Oh my, she really did just say that
I feel a little violated
Could be that I’m infatuated
I’m lusting for disgusting Shanel
You see the trouble is, that girl’s addictive
I’m lusting for disgusting Shanel
You’ve got to know her, let her take over
I’m lusting for disgusting Shanel

BODY BUTTER
I look at you you look at me I look again and now I see
You’re over there buying pretty girls drinks
Didn’t you know I’m thirsty too you look at me I look at you
I wonder how to make you notice
I did not come out all this way to look at you begin to stray
Boy you’d better not be a disappointment
I want your Body to be covered in my butter oh yeah
You think it’s funny but I’m serious still I don’t care
The time has come for you to see that girl you’re with she is not me
She’ll play you penny-less nevertheless you’ll think you’ve got her
Come over here to me my dear I’ll make it clear we’ll disappear
Can’t you see I’m making this real easy, I just want one thing
I want your Body to be covered in my butter oh yeah
You think it’s funny but I’m serious still I don’t care
What a surprise oh there she goes you look at me to say hello
Well guess what I got too tired of waiting
While you were there wasting your time I looked at him and he was mine
He could see quite easily just how much that I was aching
I want his Body to be covered in my butter oh yeah
He knows I’m serious the funny thing is he don’t care
I want his Body to be covered in my butter oh yeah
He knows I’m serious the funny thing is he don’t care

ALWAYS THAT WAY
She asked so kindly please oblige me for one time
Leave me alone to compose this damaged heart of mine
He always told her you’re my unforgettable
She finally realised he’d known all along one day she’d be gone
She did not want him to see not one tear fall
Couldn’t make eyes with him couldn’t bear the thought at all
She pointed to the door and in her voice soft spoken
Please go I’d like to keep what’s left of myself love unbroken
But she’s always felt connected to those tragic tales of time
Only naturally fitting that she’d fall next in line
It’s OK she sighed I’ll only cry forever and a day
It was always meant to be that way.
She asked him blindly do you see me everywhere
A foolish girl thinking that she alone could make him care
He’d always answer with some cleversome remark
Yeah that outta keep her happy till I get her in the dark
She did not want him to think she cared too much
No don’t wanna bother him no don’t wanna scare him off
He headed to the door with indifference in his eyes
Honey don’t you look sad don’t act like your surprised
But she’s always felt connected to those tragic tales of time
Only naturally fitting that she’d fall next in line
It’s OK she sighed I’ll only cry forever and a day
It was always meant to be that way.

FOOLISH FRIEND
How could one be so wrong, makes you wonder how all along
Your way of thinking was never as good as you thought it was, oh no
Such a hard thing to take, when again you repeat the same mistakes that you know you’ve
Already learned your lessons from
A fool for you once again, a fool for you my friend
I used to think of nothing more, thinking you were all I’m fighting for
But I’m a fool no more. And sometimes when I’m lonely
I will smile for leaving you behind, I’m a fool no more.
Now the worst part of all, you were not prepared for the fall
This time around you allowed it to get under your skin, within,
You believed it so much, so much you let all of your trust
Out on the line you resigned your own mind to the love that you swore to
A fool for you once again, a fool for you my friend
I used to think of nothing more, thinking you were all I’m fighting for
But I’m a fool no more. And sometimes when I’m lonely
I will smile for leaving you behind I’m a fool no more.

CERTAINTY
I know I should be someone else, but I prefer to do so much less
It’s not like I don’t give a damn, I just can’t be assed to hit the ground running
It’s not as easy as you think, I get distracted by the drink
I’ll admit there’s thing I over see, yes I do see what’s in front of me, oh
Tricky tricky, it gets a little slippery when I try to find my feet
Sometimes I think I’ve got it figured out, then I realise I’m already out
I’ve got no good reason to become something, in a hurry
This is only nothing you’re so concerning, don’t you worry
I wonder what my friends would say then I realise that we’re all the same
I guess you’d call that comforting, much more, we’re all just out seizing the day
It’s gonna take a little while, to get there but in the mean while
It’s fun to be less serious, no it won’t sent me delirious oh
Freaky freaky, I know it creeps you out when life is full of doubt
But understand that I will be OK, I can’t have it any other way.
I’m not trying to leave it all too late you know, I’m no degenerate
You keep trying to put me in some skin that you, you cannot fit me in
I’ve got no need for certainty you’re denying me going higher
You keep on trying to make me see, but I drink to uncertainty
Hey you with your future
You think it’s so easy, but all I see,
Is someone so damn crazy cos you’re not like me
I’m only trying to show you I’m only trying to say
My certainty is nothing stays the same

KNOW WHAT YOU WANT
I’ve got a little problem that I’m having trouble solving
Here you come again to give me words of wisdom
I’m sorry but I don’t remember ever asking your opinion
You continue to come out from nowhere.
I’m pretty sure that I’ve got more control of my own life
Maybe you should listen to your own advice, but no
You just continue, you just continue with your talking,
You just continue, you just continue with your talking again, and you say
Your head’s not clear, so can you really know what you want?
I said my heads been the same for years and knowing’s the one thing I ever got right oh,
So take it easy, I’ll be keeping my eye on you
Well I think you ought to keep that second eye of yours to see your own self through
Don’t get me wrong I know you never meant to sound that condescending
Your intentions started out politely
But over time I’m sad to say it slowly faded things you said they make no sense
You are about to lose me
I will admit there was a time I didn’t mind all the attention though pretentious
It was better left unmentioned but still
You just continue, you just continue with your talking,
You just continue, you just continue with your talking again, and you say
Your head’s not clear, so can you really know what you want?
I said my heads been the same for years and knowing’s the one thing I ever got right
So take it easy, I’ll be keeping my eye on you
Well I think you ought to keep that second eye of yours to see your own self through

LADY LOST
Now every time I try to walk away, it’s just the same as yesterday
And every time I walk right out the door, well you promise more, just like before
But I said I told you boy, not to bother me no more
Because I don’t want no boy like you I’d rather be alone
You said I love you girl, and I love you every day
But boy you’re no good no good for me why don’t you go away
Baby, you drive me crazy, but I’m not your lady anymore
Oh baby, there’s no more maybes, my thoughts aren’t hazy, this time I’m sure
Now don’t you look at me with those sad eyes, they’ll only try to tell more lies
And don’t you kiss me oh so soft and sweet, I’m out of reach, you can’t have me
But I said I told you boy that your time has run out
Well I gave too many chances and now my head is full of doubt
You said I’m sorry girl, sorry with all my heart
Well I’m sorry boy you should have meant it all right from the start
Baby, you drive me crazy, but I’m not your lady anymore
Oh baby, there’s no more maybes, my thoughts aren’t hazy, this time I’m sure

EASY P
An open moment an idea to win you over but you never see anything other than a deal you had
But you’re glad we shared a conversation if I work a little harder maybe I could be as great as you
It’s so true you’re the winning kind, you kept your head into line and biding your time eventually you started to shine
So I’m here now trying to impress this overrated dick who all too easy seems to forget
I see you think you’re not the easily persuaded type of guy
But honey you’re not that hard to persuade otherwise
You think you’ve got me so intimidated got me figured out
And I can hardly even wait to see your face when I let you down, oh
But I’ve got to go to work got to get a bit of money
Got to get a bit of money just so I can even go to work
And I curse when I see you there you’re prepared to talk over me
Telling me that I’d better just agree to things easily, don’t you see?
What I say is best you know is best for everybody
Sure kid you’ll fit in fine just don’t you do anything that better than mine oh my
I see you think you’re not the easily persuaded type of guy
But honey you’re not that hard to persuade otherwise
You think you’ve got me so intimidated got me figured out
But honey you’re not the first of your kind to come around oh no
I see you think you’re not the easily persuaded type of guy
But honey you’re not that hard to persuade otherwise
You think you’ve got me so intimidated got me figured out
And I can hardly even wait to see your face when I let you down

YELLOW DRESS
Been feeling alone it comes and goes always right on time I lie down lonely in the dead of night
Oh how my mind it tries to trick me into thinking that we were meant to be I only see when we were
Happy and you know that for a second I'm believing in the things that I am dreaming
Self-deceiving all this time, I go and pick myself up, dry my eyes, as I'm slowly reminded
Of the lies that I am tired of re living. I look again to the one thing, a simple thing that gives it to
Me truthfully, and it can bring me down to my knees, but it always brings me back to me.
A pretty yellow dress that's all I've left I keep it close to remind myself
Somehow I thought a pretty dress would make you love me more I'd slip it on to hide all our flaws,
But honey you, you never got to see my dress, and I never got to look my best
And so it still hangs in my closet today and it's pretty yellow colour, is fading away
I know that I’ll miss to kiss your lips I’ll miss the way you smile
Even though I know you won’t miss mine. But you don’t admit it that there were times
Back in the very start, when you had known that we’d fall apart, no I don’t want to hear it
Don’t call me darling it won’t soften the blow when you very well know
That you’re the reason I’m so affected. You say you never meant it but we ended this way again
A pretty yellow dress that's all I've left I keep it close to remind myself
Somehow I thought a pretty dress would make you love me more I'd slip it on to hide all our flaws,
But honey you, you never got to see my dress, and I never got to look my best
And so it still hangs in my closet today and it's pretty yellow colour, is fading away

I'm Yours
03:13

|
I'M YOURS
So well it looks like I finally made the right decision To listen to my heart and follow my own vision
Cos for a while there I was imprisoned, in my own soul, didn’t know, just which way to go and
I fought a battle deep inside myself, it was even starting to affect my mental health,
But all I needed was a little help To get these things off my chest and help me out with the stress,
And then I realised that I was wrong, things I thought I was missing , they were there all along,
I just needed for once to let it all out, and now all I ever wanna do is shout
I am Yours, As I Am To Music, It Just Is, It Always Was
You see, life's what you make of it, not what you take from it,
Some people in this world just don’t give a shit, but listen hard to me my friends,
Cos one day all our lives will end, and when that day comes when you will never see the sun again,
Can you only say that your life was pretend? I couldn’t handle that, I don’t know how to act,
Just the pure thought makes me rise up and wanna react. The fact is, you only get one chance,
To grab a hold of your dreams and then advance, towards happiness, hang onto it,
But then again it just depends on how you measure it. Now personally, I don’t agree,
With those people who believe the key to being free involves money,
That’s not what it's about, there's more to life than that I don’t care who you are I'm telling you that that’s a fact
I am Yours, As I Am To Music, It Just Is, It Always Was
We all go down together tonight, we all go down together tonight.
