Checking Out

I've been watching you for quite a while
I can see right through that counterfeit smile
I know the scorpions you hold inside
so anxious to poison my mind
but I'm not taking blame for the bodies you've piled
Too late to make your amends
You'll never see me again
You keep on eating my pride like it's so glamorous
It's in your charcoal eyes that your spun out and vicious
I'm ripe with confidence so please enjoy this consequence
while I'm checking out
I'm not here to fulfill your black desires
I will not exist under your empire
So tell them stories of your demise
Don't kid yourself you spit out lies
Somewhere in your brain
there's unplugged wires
Too late to make your amends
You'll never see me again
You keep on eating my pride like it's so glamorous
It's in your charcoal eyes that your spun out and vicious
I'm ripe with confidence so please enjoy this consequence
while I'm checking out
You keep on eating my pride like it's so glamorous
It's in your charcoal eyes that your spun out and vicious
You keep on eating my pride like it's so glamorous
It's in your charcoal eyes that your spun out and vicious
I'm ripe with confidence so please enjoy this consequence
while I'm checking out
I'm checking out

Thinking Of Her
03:22

Captivated by those diamond eyes
They splash the rainbows right across my sky
And while I try to act so shy
The fireworks go off inside
That night I looked up at the starry floor
I knew I never felt like this before
But then the news walked in the door
There was someone you adore
And I try to stay so patient but all
I can feel now is so vacant
Chorus:
While I’m thinking of you
You’re thinking of her
While I’m thinking of you
You’re thinking of her
I never meant to interfere
Or cause such a stir but
I keep thinking of you
While you’re thinking of her
What filled my stomach
Now begins to spoil
It makes me sick watching
Your two tongues coil
And my blood begins to boil
Cuz that love is just so royal
And now the birds are singing all
The wrong tunes
And this all follows me just
Like the moon
And I can’t be in the same
Room with these feeling I cocoon
And I never meant to be the villain
But can’t you see my poor heart spillin?
While I’m thinking of you
You’re thinking of her
Repeat Chorus
Can’t you see that you
Were my companion
Now you’re gone
And I’m abandoned
I never meant to have a tantrum
Never meant to cause a scene
It’s a truth that I just cannot fathom
You with lines that make you handsome
Is this for real or is it random
Is it really what it seems?
I wanna cover all these things I’ve seen
Soak all these pictures in some gasoline
Repeat Chorus
I never meant to interfere
Or cause such a stir but
While I’m thinking of you
You’re thinking of her

Stay

Tonight I climb my ladder
and hang the stars up
in your sky
Be the star of my novel
and write my favorite
kind of line
Hey, please don't stray
Hey, please just stay
Your fingerprints will always
remain right here on my heart
Dismissed the fears I once had
before our lips would ever part
Hey, please don't stray
Hey, please just stay
I've been searching everywhere
but you were here the whole time
Out of those deck of cards
I'm so happy your chose mine
Followed that broken compass
for much too long
The moment you held me in your arms
I knew that's where I belonged
Hey, please don't stray
Hey, please just stay

Just A Bride
03:52

The mornings are damp
and baptized by the rain
I hope that these lines
will creep into your brain
Feelings on trampolines
bouncing up and down
After all you put me through
I still want you around
Can you find a way to
make it out of bed today
God knows you've got it
so much worse
The aisles cold, it's open wide
you're no longer by my side
So quick for you to decide
There's no groom
There's just a bride
Your just a heartbreak in disguise
I thought that you were on my side
I risked my life and you don't try
There's no groom
There's just a bride
You took all my sunbeams
and gave me all your shade
My thoughts begin to blister
You seem to be okay
You put me on your shelf
now I'm collecting dust
spending my days
counting the broken bonds of trust
Can you find a way to
make it out of bed today
God knows you put me in this hearse
The aisles cold, it's open wide
you're no longer by my side
So quick for you to decide
There's no groom
There's just a bride
Your just a heartbreak in disguise
I thought that you were on my side
I risked my life and you don't try
There's no groom
There's just a bride
I gave you front row seats
I gave you champaign suites
What did you do for me
The spot you had won't be reserved
I'm getting on my feet
Your scents worn off my sheets
Snows melted off the streets
I won't look back at what we were
I thought I was your guest
But now I'm just your pest
and you're just like the rest
you know you've got a lot of nerve
Well light your cigarettes
drown in your streams of sweat
One day you will regret
I hope you get what you deserve
The aisles cold, it's open wide
you're no longer by my side
So quick for you to decide
There's no groom
There's just a bride
Your just a heartbreak in disguise
I thought that you were on my side
I risked my life and you don't try
There's no groom
There's just a bride

Sleaze Parade
03:03
|

I’ll never ever be the one to speak
You’ll never ever wake me from my sleep
All those words that you say you say so bleak
They only show me just how you’re so weak
There will be many girls that you will seek
But not one of them that you can keep
You very well may blush their little cheeks
Until they find out how you’re such a creep
Won’t be used
or abused
without you
I will be ok
No more truce
you will lose
sing the blues
Have your sleaze parade
You’ll try to stay so calm, darling, and meek
So everyone around thinks you’re so sweet
You’ll try to walk so quiet on your feet
But soon the floor of truth is gonna creek
You lie to them right through your crooked teeth
In all the ways that you once did to me
But soon they will see right through your deceit
And the madness of you is gonna reek
Won’t be used
or abused
without you
I will be ok
No more truce
you will lose
sing the blues
Have your sleaze parade
Won’t be used
or abused
without you
I will be ok
No more truce
you will lose
sing the blues
Have your sleaze parade
Won’t be used
or abused
without you
I will be ok
No more truce
you will lose
sing the blues
Have your sleaze parade
