low
02:21
|
|||
i wanna fit right in
but everyone around me says no
i wanna be like you and
i wanna be like her too
how can i be as happy as you
when im stuck like this forever?
i want you to love me too
so break my heart right after
chorus
why do i try when i feel so low?
why do i cry when i already know?
im not cut out for truth
im not cut out for show
wasnt made to fit in a margin
wasnt made to fit in a mold
i screwed it over for myself
yes i admit
but what was the purpose
when all of it was pointless?
guess i just want attention
but what human wants it without desperation?
chorus
bridge
does anybody feel this low?
cuz the world goes by so fast but im still moving slow
nobodys just like me, nobody would take my hand
look up into the sky and scream "do you still understand?"

v1
when i first saw you yeah i smiled
i didn’t know how you’d look so i took a wild—GUESS
and maybe you weren’t the best dressed
but i didnt care i just stared at the smirk on your lips
you had a hint of charm to you
and baby let me tell you im kinda into you
and i dont want this to be some cliche romance
i just want to warn you we may not have a chance
chorus
look at me right this time. look at me straight
im just gonna warn you this is reality
everyone around us is sinister, you know the truth
well enough—that’s enough, you’re sinister too
v2
i see right through your bright blue eyes
you’re gonna lie, you’re gonna lie
i dont like writing songs about future heartbreaks
especially when history likes to repeat the game
i dont have time for this you know
and this sounds just like another song i wrote
but all this music sounds the same
your voice blends in as i drown out your name
chorus

maybe it's all a misunderstanding,
how do i make them understand me?
(understand me)
they always argue and fight,
what am i supposed to do when one of them is right?
pre-chorus (1)
i'm caught in a cold war, but
how am i supposed to win when weapons are forced down?
chorus
contrabanda, i love you,
but you won't help me.
i have no clue
something like revenge and a little bit of poison.
this time it helped me through
(i loved you)
i haven't got a hearing yet
how am i supposed to be punished when i haven't been tried?
this is the first time, and definitely the last time i will remind you.
pre-chorus (2)
i am a human too,
maybe it doesn't appeal to somebody like you
chorus (1x)
bridge
this is an emergency,
she's falling apart at the scene
somebody come help her
somebody come ask her
who she wants to be
who was the one who broke her heart?
who was the one who pushed her back to the start?
(she cannot restart)
her love is in the air, but
nobody seems to care, so
she's giving it all away -
it's not fair, no.
chorus (1x)

chorus
i’m sitting by the rose bush
covered in thorns
waiting for you
this rose bush holds the very secrets i once knew
oh dear rose bush tell me your secrets 'fore i get them out of you
you covered me in thorns but i aint through with you, no
v1
your dug your vines into my heart and used the thorns to get at me
you planted a rose in my head
but now it’s dead, cuz i didn’t know how to care for it
they say that romance is dead and i sure am
turns out the fantasy you had didn’t go as planned
im looking for the one spot i knew i wouldn’t be found
i walked through this place without making a sound so...
chorus
v2
can i finally throw away all these love letters you gave me?
or did you wanna bury them so your secrets can die with me
its hard losing someone you love
especially when its your fault you planted roses in my lungs
chorus
so basically i was sitting by the rose bush
was covered in thorns
i was waiting for you
that rose bush held the very secret i still knew
oh dear rose bush don’t tell them your secret 'fore they get it out of you
he covered me in thorns but he didn’t know abt you, no
bridge
don’t ask why people plant roses near my grave
just shed your tears then walk away
if you wanna know what really happened
just go to the bush of thorns with no roses on them

i don’t talk to anybody at night anymore
why is that you ask? well i can’t answer that
its a long story, unless you have the time
but long story short i can’t stay the night
don’t ask who hurt me its nobodys fault
i swear i did it to myself
I know its hard but you have to listen
its a story only i can tell
i drew x’s over his eyes
he drew circles around mine
we burned the picture and watched it turn to ash but
we didn’t know what it’d mean in time
i don’t talk to anybody at night anymore
why is that you ask? well i can explain that
its a long story, and i see you have the time
but long story short here’s the reason why
don’t ask who hurt me its only my fault
i know i did it to myself for months
I know its hard but you don’t have to listen
he can tell the story how he wants
a few days after we parted ways
i started wondering why this happened to me
to this day i still wonder what he heard
but i guess none of it is my concern
but I know for sure he’ll hear this song
and i bet he’ll start to wonder what’s wrong
I know he knows well
and i do too
i just wonder why i still write songs for you
i don’t talk to anybody at night anymore
why is that you ask? well i’ve answered that
it was a long story, but i knew you’d have the time
but long story short i won’t talk tonight

verse 1
some people say the best healing is time
i don’t believe anything they say they’re all lies
whats the point of waiting to heal when time was never on your side?
and you don’t have to drink to forget when you’re gonna remember tonight
dont trust your lover when she says she’ll be fine
you already know she’s gonna find
someone new by her side, but you know its right
to let her go and wait till time passes you by
chorus
come love by the pool
you’ll learn a thing or two
and maybe if you sit long enough
you’ll learn something new
don’t fall in the pool
if she won’t fall for you
and maybe if you wait long enough
she’ll find someone new
this is a travesty
when you don’t know what words to sing
oh I’ve been there before
oh trust me
i told you not to trust her,
but soon she found out too
you were caught, secondhand loving
with somebody new
chorus
come love by the pool
you’ll know a thing or two
about the way he moves
you already knew
don’t fall in the pool
if he didn’t fall for you
and maybe if you watch long enough
he’ll find someone new
bridge
your lovely mr. heartthrob
yeah he left you
and your wonderful mrs heartbreak
left you too
now just like romeo you seal your kiss
and juliet drowns without a second thought she’ll miss you
jump in the pool
you’ll learn a thing or two
oh maybe you will find her again
and love her like you should’ve been oh
and babygirl, you burned down his world
now what is there to do now that you’re both in the pool?
chorus
come love by the pool
you’ll see a thing or two
and maybe if you wait long enough
she;ll come back to you
don’t fall in the pool
if he’s already falling for you
maybe if you love long enough
he will be with you

cursed like the unluckiest girl on the planet,
i just lost the best thing that could happen.
how could this get any worse for me?
i just wanna go to sleep.
put those flowers on my grave, would you?
i just wanna know what it's like to be me again.
maybe we'll come back to the way we were again.
chorus
oh, laurie, what happened to this spark?
oh, laurie, would you believe we were once in love?
now nothing matters at all.

well how does it feel now
that you’re on the outside looking in
now you know how it feels to be someone who is all alone
well i felt like that for quite sometime now
until i met you
and then you threw it away as if it were no use to you
prechrous
lets pretend that this didn’t happen at all
let’s pretend we’re strangers brushing shoulders in the halls
chorus
now ill show you what its like to live on the outside
now that youve shown me what its like to be on the inside
and I’ve tried and I’m hurting from trying to get back to you
maybe i should’ve been on the inside with you, too
so many mistakes I’ve made in the past,
maybe i should’ve been more careful when i was with you
we both know you made those mistakes too
and I’ve tried, and tried and tried
to get it all off my chest
but every time i try to forgive myself i just regret
pre chorus
chorus
bridge
(am, c, em, c)
and don’t you think I’ve tried n I’ve tried to get back to you?
its like a tidal wave and i can’t seem to find you
youve disappeared on me once or twice now
im not asking for your sympathy but what do i do now?
let’s pretend that this didn’t happen at all
lets pretend we’re strangers, we don’t know each other at all
chorus 2x
last sentence
maybe i should walk away from being inside with you

and burn all the steps you take
and brother do me this one thing and i promise ill pay you back
but i’ll be gone when the sun turns black
v1
all the roads we’ve ever known
brother, please don’t follow me this way
there’s something you have to know
they’re coming for you
so stay low and stay calm to
stay alive i don’t wanna see you cry
because this hurts me more than it hurts you
chorus
v2
all the friends you’ve ever made
brother, please don’t trust their face
this one thing you have to know
it’s my fault so just go
say bye and just run 'way
it’s my fault so lemme just say
let me just say
brother do me a favor
and forget all the steps you take
and brother do me this one thing and i’ll try to come back
but i can’t guarantee this fact
bridge
it’s all my fault so how i can help you if all i do is forget?
so just try not to remember what i did to you because i promise i’m not like that anymore
im not you remember i was
im not who i used to be
so brother don’t do this to me
so brother do me a favor
and burn all the steps i take
and brother do me this one thing and you’ll never come back
you’ll be lost and youve burnt the match

chorus
i dont wanna hear about your life
and im sick of hearing about your strife
maybe i want a turn
and maybe i want a world in my hands
but you can’t have that so why should i?
and i don’t wanna hear about those lies
and i don’t wanna be that guy
maybe i want to die
and maybe i wanna cry some more but this
ghost machine is killing me
no 4x
maybe you should support my decision this time
I know you like to shut me out when i wanna cry
we all got problems, and we can’t solve em
but thats just the way we go
and maybe i dont wanna know
and maybe frankly I don’t care
and maybe i wanna sleep for eternity
but you won’t help me
and what about those books you read?
anything about being dead?
because i dont wanna live anymore
especially when you’re in front of me to bore
my guitar is out of tune
but it still sounds better than you
one more minute of this and im gone
youve been on the same topic for far too long
chorus
no 4x
bridge 39x lol
lets get it straight, lets get it right,
i dont wanna hear you fight

tell me what its like in your mind
i wanna travel to the place where your thoughts go
well i promise i wont let go
but will you guarantee that you won’t lose me at all?
im losing my mind over this song
in hopes that youll learn to sing along
i will remind myself now and then
please keep this with you and dont forget
you walked me to the park the other day
you held both my hands and that’s when i heard you say
if sudden waves take us away
just remember this song and you’ll hear me sing one day
oh (4x)
i won’t forget you my love
I know its hard and I know its tough
but this is the only memory i have of you
i would die right now just to be right next to you
i wanna touch the sky
but i haven’t learned how to fly
i wanna reach the moon
and bring it down to earth fro you
just to sum it all up i wanna give you everything
so you dont have to keep asking for it
oh my moonlight you deserve it all
thats why i tried my best to write this song
oh (4x)
oh my moonlight you deserve it all

broken hearts hospital
03:53
|

this is the sound my heart makes when i see you
it counts one, two, one, two, one, two
it makes a steady beat, one you can move your feet to
you can write a song at this pace
this is the hospital where i met you
it holds a lot of memories, and you should too
instead of forgetting everything i said to you
why don’t you try to fix your heartbeat, too?
chorus
this is the first time we’ll be apart
but trust me it won’t be hard
'cause at the end of day,
you’ll be back in my arms
to say hello
(don’t say hello if you know your heart’s gonna break apart)
I know its not easy to walk away from smth you love
but sometimes we have to let go when it seems the hardest
I know your heartbeat like my own
I know it’s at a standstill
maybe i could make it work again
but I’m too scared of breaking it
please don’t trust me with something you can’t trust yourself with
chorus
(will you say hello or will you leave like you did before?)
bridge
don’t walk away when I’m talking to you
cause I’m too scared you’ll find out the truth.
i wrote all these songs for you but
i guess youve never noticed
i wrote them all to the beat of my heart
but it sounds like yours too
would you take some time out of your day?
to see me at my hospital stay
chorus
this is not the first time we’ll be apart
but trust me the first time was hard
'cause at the end of the day you never came back into my arms

wait till the train pulls in the station,
we can finally get out of here
I know its hard to believe
but lets leave while were still young
no more temptations
no more realizations
this is reality now
lets go say goodbye to
this ghost town
chorus
this is superstition station
we believe what we wanna believe
I know its hard to get our attention
we’re those types of teens
so loser, pack your bags
were going where we’re wanted
i promise i won’t leave you alone
we’ll find another place to call home
no more scary kids on the block
no more metal music or rock
we’ve definitely hit a low
we were rockin but now we gotta roll
chorus
bridge
now the train is at the station
we’re getting out of here
dear mama please don’t miss me
ill be back when I’m twenty three

flower crowns and iced tea,
soakin' up the sunny weather, baby, oh.
picking roses in the garden,
making jokes about how our future's golden, oh.
chorus
well tomorrow's bright but today is brighter.
we'll keep it to ourselves as we're drowning in the water.
we'll do it all today, we won't skip a beat,
'cuz our hearts are hanging onto the edge of our seats.
we'll be alive this evening.
let's ride our bikes along the street alone (alone)
let's drink coffee at midnight,
we'll be buzzing 'til the sun rides high (high)
chorus
bridge
well i wonder how the stars felt today (oh)
as they watched us on our way (oh)
i wonder if they feel like us sometimes (sometimes)
where we need to blink before we shine
chorus (2x)
and we're singing oh (2x)
