Stay silent while I get the ammunition. Let's keep this to ourselves and say we're never gonna be alone. my heart beats for you like a drum. But too bad she's a walking contradiction. But we're complicated people...that's why her words were just leading me on. And to think I fought for our affair, though she was destined for someone else. But she doesn't know that I see through her game. And I'm sick of the lies girl, that you made. And they drive me insane, so I'll sit and pretend that my love for you is never ending. I'm just a pawn in your eyes...my queen. But we're complicated people...that's why her words were just leading me on. And to think I fought for our affair, though she was destined for someone else. But she doesn't know that I see through her game. Sick of the lies girl! Let's break off these ties! I see your facade girl! Ooo yeah! I'll never listen to a word you say. You swore our love would never end, while sleeping with another man. (2x) But we're complicated people...that's why her words were just leading me on. And to think I fought for our affair, though she was destined for someone else. But she doesn't know that I see through her game.

I'm imperfect. I'm not an open book, but the pages are my flaws. What you see is what you get. We hide behind our pretty little eyes and a smile, but we can only really hide for so long. And me and my mistakes are on a first name basis, so we are just doing the best we can. If I could trade it in for perfection, I wouldn't take it cause I'm not ashamed, by the way... Now hold on one minute! You gotta start before you finish this life. You either drop dead or live it, so I suggest you make up your mind. If you don't want to live it, then reevaluate your life cause we're addicted to living just so death can just pass us by. Oh pass us by...I'm a lover not a fighter. These cliches keep me passive. To them I am another addition to the overdramatic. I'm still addicted to living, so there's no way to tear me down. No matter how hard I try, these imperfections taunt me. Ready or not, these flaws will always follow me to my grave. No matter how hard I try, these imperfections taunt me. No matter how hard I try. We try... I'm imperfect. I'm not an open book, but the pages are my flaws. What you see is what you get. We hide behind our pretty little eyes and a smile, but we can only really hide for so long. And me and my mistakes are on a first name basis, so we are just doing the best we can. If I could trade it in for perfection, I wouldn't take it cause I'm not ashamed, by the way...

Drunken yet so calm. I'm repeating her name as we kiss for the last time. And I can't just...just forget her, cause she's the only thing that ever mattered. And I can't lose myself. I have to figure out why I should live secluded. Think with your heart, not with your mind. If that's the trick of the trade, you'll end up blind. So baby tell me what's the reason when we're both all alone. I'll never get it so I might as well stop. Put myself into seclusion while I figure it out. Oh honey, I'm a mess again. I had no choice but to give in. I've figured out the cure for loneliness. I'll take my time to settle down and change myself. I lost myself while immersed in the darkest thoughts about my ending. And I can't just...just forget her, cause she's the only thing that ever mattered. And I can't lose myself. I have to figure out why I should live secluded. Think with your heart, not with your mind. If that's the trick of the trade, you'll end up blind. So baby tell me what's the reason when we're both all alone. I'll never get it so I might as well stop. Put myself into seclusion while I figure it out. Oh honey, I'm a mess again. I had no choice but to give in. I've figured out the cure for loneliness. I'll take my time to settle down and change myself. I'd rather see myself in happiness. I'd rather see myself without constant regret. Without constant regret...

Look at me! Oh can't you see I never would've broke your heart right from the start? Everyday you notice me! I wish that we could take it farther. Maybe till the end? Maybe I can change your mind to think that I really am the one for you. Baby please, give into me. I know exactly where your heart truly belongs. Oh no! I can't take the disgrace of you holding them! I know I'm wrong for my thoughts! I need love, so I'll wait everyday for you! Give me time! I know that I am caught up in my web of lies! It's obvious. Interrogated, oh i hate it! I wish that these feelings really could subside! Oh no! I can't take the disgrace of you holding them! I know I'm wrong for my thoughts! I need love, so I'll wait everyday for you! Oh no! I can't take the disgrace of you holding them! I know I'm wrong for my thoughts! I need love, so I'll wait everyday for you! I keep these feelings bottled up! I hope you can forgive me for my selfish thoughts. You're in love and I'm a joke! I don't deserve to be with you! You're happy, I know. I need someone. I need someone to help me take my own mind right off of you. Baby please, why can't you see I've always seen a future with you all along? I can't handle this much longer. It pains me just to see your beautiful lips on them! And why can't that be me? And here I go again with all my selfish thoughts, all for you. and now you got me thinking bout' me being all you want. Say that you love me and that you'll never leave me alone. and that's all I want from you. Look at me! Oh can't you see I never would've broke your heart right from the start? Everyday you notice me! I wish that we could take it farther. Maybe till the end? Maybe I can change your mind to think that I really am the one for you. Baby please, give into me. I know exactly where your heart truly belongs.

And like a fuel to the flame, this love ignites with emotion. Never to be erased if she slips out my hands. And I won't let you get away from everything we learned to accept. And no! I won't give up on this love! Let's make this last! I can't imagine me without you in my arms! We can't live with the memory of claiming false ecstasy. But I can live with the memory of our strong happiness. Say what you need. And I won't let you get away from everything we learned to accept. I will never leave if this pain takes time to heal. Give me reason to live because I love her. And oh, that ain't the half of it girl because I admit you are my world. Don't ever think the opposite. Ever. Say that you're never gonna change. Say that, oh baby, you're never gonna change. Say that you love me. I'll never let you go. And I won't let you get away from everything we learned to accept. And no! I won't give up on this love! Let's make this last! I can't imagine me without you in my arms!

Let's never grow up and take control of our freedom! We'll never move on! At least I thought that's what we would say. Ready or not, we're parting ways to our futures and I for one am moving on to see much better days. Soon you will forget these things mattered. We're growing up to see better days. I'm right where I want to be. These days won't ever change. There's no going back. I finally know who I am these days, an average basket case, for lack of a better word. This isn't what I've always wanted. I've been lying to myself for confidence. I duck and dodge from all these huge regrets. I am my worst enemy. I'm tearing me down1 I cannot rely on everyone for my happiness! I'm comfortably numb with everything! Let's never grow up and take control of our freedom! We'll never move on! I wish we went through with what we said. I thought this would be everything that I wanted, but it goes to show there is no wrong in second guessing yourself. Soon you will forget these things mattered. I'm growing to see much worse days. I'm comfortably numb!

I'm a product of manipulation. From confident to desolation. I find myself trapped at the bottom every time little things get difficult. If I could learn to break the system, maybe one day I'll be the hero and turn this story into something better than another broken fairy tale. Use me all you want but one day I'll grow strong enough to fend for myself. When my back's against the wall, one day I'll grow strong enough to get by. Oh I will find myself someday...So don't hold me back because these wires constrict me. I'm a complex mind beneath weary eyes. Help me to get by. Help me. So let me hear if you're misunderstood. I'm a product of manipulation. From confident to desolation. I find myself trapped at the bottom every time little things get difficult. If I could learn to break the system, maybe one day I'll be the hero and turn this story into something better than another broken fairy tale.

And I'll be sitting front row ooo, and did I mention it's a romance too? Open up! Open up your heart! Don't hold back! Now baby that's a start. Keep me close and keep you enemies closer!

Oh I was a danger to myself. I needed someone, a savior to my health. I promised to never leave her alone in a bed of her own. Her words were so clear, she said, "Darling don't leave, you're much better than this." I'm shattered not broken. Show me that there is really a better way. Save me from these lonely nights while I am just chasing the dreams of a perfect lover. Oh I want to be something more than a burden. Shame on me for putting you through something I could've contained. I've changed in the ways you want me to be. You won't shed tears for me. Oh I was a danger to myself. I needed someone, a savior to my health. I promised to never leave her alone in a bed of her own. Her words were so clear, she said, "Darling don't leave, you're much better than this." I'm shattered not broken. Show me that there is really a better way. Stand by my side, please while I am still alive. These days I've spent with you have been the best I've had. I can't do this alone. Please don't leave me here to die. Help me to find what is true happiness. A mythical feeling? An emotion that ended? Or a new beginning to cure a terrible feeling? I'll stay with you here, darling. I'll stay here, darling...for as long as you need me to! Oh please forgive me for this mess! I'll do it for the future that I wanted from us. I'll do it for the others that I cherish the most! It's not a trending celebration of an ending, I know. Please forgive me for all that I've done. Please forgive me for all my mistakes! Oh I was a danger to myself. I needed someone, a savior to my health. I promised to never leave her alone in a bed of her own. Her words were so clear, she said, "Darling don't leave, you're much better than this." I'm shattered not broken. Show me that there is really a better way.

I have broken my back to please you. From now on I'm done with your selfish moods. The things that make me stronger are not you. I try so hard but never am approved. Make me be the one you'll love forever and never let go. Show me I am something to you. Better than just nothing because your approval's all I need. I have broken my back to please you. From now on I'm done with your selfish moods. The things that make me stronger are not you. I try so hard but never am approved. I don't need you. I am through with you! I do need you. Don't let me be alone. I don't need you. I am through with you! I do need you. Don't let me be alone. Help me understand what I do wrong instead of finding another loyal lover. I'll be there for you I promise girl. Help me understand what I do wrong. Please don't find someone else. My love for you is all the rage. I have broke my back to please you.From now on I'm done with your selfish moods. The things that make me stronger are not you. I try so hard but never am approved. I don't need you. I am through with you! I do need you. Don't let me be alone. I don't need you. I am through with you! I do need you. Don't let me be alone. I can't take this sudden change in heart between us. Let's break even. End of story. I'm not mourning over something that never should've started. Hardcore Christmas! (8x) Help me understand what I do wrong instead of finding another loyal lover. I'll be there for you I promise girl. Help me understand what I do wrong instead of finding another loyal lover. I'll be there for you I promise girl. Make me be the one you'll love and never let go.
