All I Need
Hey! Don’t say what you wanna say
Cause then they’ll come your way
And bring you down
Hey! Don’t feel what you’re supposed to feel
Cause then they’ll make you kneel
Bring you to the ground
Hey! I’m all I need
I’m all I need
Hey! Just say what you wanna say
They’re still coming your way
To bring you down
Hey! Just feel what you wanna feel
Cause you’re already on your knees
They’re not taking pleas

Happy
I ain’t gonna sit around waiting for you
I’m gonna find someone else to do
I don’t mind thinking if this is a ruse
Cause you see, I ain’t got nothing to lose
I ain’t gonna sit around drinking for two
I’m gonna break bad and break loose
I don’t mind thinking in black and blue
Cause you see, I ain’t got nothing to prove
I wanna be happy just like you (I wanna be happy just like you)
Ignorance is bliss, don’t believe the truth (I wanna be happy just like you)
I wanna go with the flow with you (I wanna be happy just like you)
I wanna be dumb just like you, just like you
I ain’t gonna wait for you to come around
I’ve got too much pride now wearing my crown
I’m floating far away from the ground
Cause you see, I gotta get outta this town
I ain’t gonna wait for you to come back home
I lost home for sins I have atoned
I feel like I’m still, like a stone
But you see, I ain’t gonna sit here and moan

Ruse
Please don’t save me
I don’t wanna get hooked on you
Please don’t hate me
I just wanna get used by you
Please don’t trust me
I don’t wanna know who I am
Please just take me
And use me for all I am
So tell me what’s the point in loving you?
Cause you’re not the only
Sad and lonely ruse
Please don’t save her
You know you’re better off dead
Please just take her
And bring her on back to bed
Please don’t hate her
She doesn’t know who’s she’s at
Please just trust her
Let her know it’s alright to be sad

After
So tell me lies
Bout that other night
When we were high
Before we turned off the lights
So tell me how
Do we still speak now
All those things you said
Words I cannot forget
All that said is done
Don’t tell anyone
Take a breath this time
And hold on
So tell me when
Did this begin
Cause we seem lost
In wine and lust
So tell me why
You said goodbye
Cause in your eyes
I see no lies
Forsaken, not taken
Bring back the dead
Forgotten, left broken
All in my head

Over
There’s no turning back now
There’s no turning back around
We made our beds and now here we lay
There’s no use in crying
There’s no use in lying
We made our bets and now it’s time to pay
It’s all over now
We need to find another way
It’s all over now
It’s over now
There’s colour in blindness
There’s colour inside of us
We all said things we shouldn’t have said
There’s too much behind us
There’s nothing inside of us
We all think things we should’ve said

What If?
I like you best in the morning
The sun comes in I’m yawning
It’s all gonna be alright
Now I can hear you snoring
And in your sleep you’re talking
It’s all gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
Stay another night
I’ll let you slip inside
Stay another night
I hope you think I’m not boring
I’m still young I’m learning
So tell me it’s alright
I hope you know you’re not tiring
The light slips in it’s blinding
It’s all gonna be alright

Breath
Feeling so tired
And hopelessly wired
I can’t clear these thoughts
From my bed
Feeling so haggard
And hopelessly measured
I can’t stand these thoughts
In my head
Thrill me
And peel me
Heal me
With your breath
Take this
And break this
Make this
With your hands
Feeling so plastered
And hopelessly wasted
I can’t find these words
I once said
Feeling so dated
And hopelessly fated
I can’t speak these words
I once read

I’ll sit here waiting
I’ll just sit here waiting
For someone new
For something blue
And I’ll slip inside
And I’ll sit here waiting
I’ll just sit here waiting
For someone true
For something used
And I’ll run and hide
Cause I want to
Be ordinary
Content just
Just to be
Just to be
To be me
And I’ll sit here thinking
I’ll just sit here thinking
Of empty truths
A hole in you
And I’ll slip away
And I’ll sit here thinking
I’ll just sit here thinking
And contemplate
The words you said
And I’ll run again

Rain
Shifting times and broken laws
Don’t feel like fighting anymore
It’s gotta stop now can’t you see
We can’t take this anymore
Drifting ties and dreams minds
Don’t feel like stealing these old rhymes
It’s gotta start now can’t you see
It’s out time now to be free
Breaking down
Run it to the ground
Broken hearts
All around
Take it off
We know what you want
Take it all
And fall apart
Bleeding gums and open sores
Don’t feel like faking anymore
It’s gotta work now can’t you see
It’s our time now to be free
Can’t you see
You’ve taken this from me
I wanna breathe
Breathe now and be free

Under Water (Anna’s Song)
Silently, pass me by
Open handedly, make me cry
Sleeping, sleeping
Sleeping, dreaming
I’m floating under water
To somewhere new
I’m silently drifting under
Into a ruse
I’m floating under water
To somewhere new
And there’s nothing much
You can really do
Patiently, multiply
Slip away, in disguise
Sleeping, sleeping
Sleeping, dreaming
Silently, pass her by
Open handedly, make her cry
Sleeping, sleeping
Sleeping, dreaming
