âI only want sympathy in the form of you crawling into bed with me,â
âShe says sheâs no good with words, but Iâm worse,â
âWeâre falling apart to halftime,â
âAnd I donât wanna forget how your voice sounds,â
âMisery loves me,â
âDrink up, itâs last call, last resort,â
âWhy donât you show me the little bit of spark youâve been saving for his mattress, love?â
âIâve lost control, I donât want it back,â
âI taste you on my lips and I canât get rid of you,â
âSo I say damn your kiss and the awful things you do,â
âBetter to burn than to fade away,â
âBetter to leave than to be replaced,â
âLetâs kill tonight,â
âMake room, weâre takinâ over here!â
âMay your feet serve you well,â
âFate will play us out with a song of pure romance,â
âIf all my life was but a dream,â
âWe should feed our jewelry to the sea,â
âDiamonds do appear to be just like broken glass to me,â
âTripping eyes and flooded lungs,â
âHey moon, please forget to fall down,â
âSugarcane in the easy morning,â
âMy one and lonely,â
âThe ink is running down the page,â
âI missed your skin when you were east,â
âYou clicked your heels and wished for me,â
âI know the worldâs a broken bone,â
âMelt your headaches, call it home,â
âThings are shaping up to be pretty odd,â
âI never said I missed her when everybody kissed her, so Iâm the only one to blame,â
âThings have changed for me, and thatâs okay,â
âIâm on my way,â
âI wanna go where everyone goes,â
âI wanna know what everyone knows,â
âI never said Iâd leave the city,â
âThis is gospel for the fallen ones locked away in a permanent slumber,â
âThis is the fear of falling apart,â
âThey havenât seen the best of us yet,â
âIf you love me let me go,â
âThese words are nice enough to leave scars,â
âTruth be told I never was yours,â
âLed away by imperfect impostors,â
âDonât try and sleep through the end of the world,â
âI wonât give up without a fight,â
âThey say we are what we are, but we donât have to be,â
âIâm bad behavior but I do it in the best way,â
âI try to picture me without you but I canât,â
âWe could be Immortals, just not for long,â
âLive with me forever now,â
âOh if you only knew what weâve been up to, I guarantee you keep it secret,â
âWeâre swimming with the sharks until we drown,â
âWeâre lost in a dream, now,â
âAnd weâre all but here for nothing,â
âSurrender all control to the girl that you love,â
âCan we fast forward till you go down on me?â
âI wanna live a life from a new perspectiveâ
âMore to the point, I need to show how much I can come and go,â
âThereâs no more that needs be said when Iâm inching through your bed,â
âSo catch me up on getting out of here,â
âSo how do you manage?â
âI dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage,â
âMy life started the day I got caught under the covers with second hand lovers,â
âI was drunk and it didnât mean a thing,â
âStop thinking about the bullets from my mouth,â
âI love the things you hate about yourself,â
âJust finished a daydream,â
âThe time for being sad is over,â
âNo one wants you when you have no heart,â
âI donât want to hear youâve got a boyfriend,â
âGirls love girls and boys,â
âYouâve gotta save your reputation,â
âTheyâre close to finding out about your girlfriend,â
âYouâre such a pretty thing to be running from anyone,â
âYou think youâre ready for it,â
âIâm ready to go,â
âWhat does it really mean to get nothing from anyone?â
âThereâs nothing wrong with just a taste of what you payed for,â
âYouâre guaranteed to run this town,â
âGive me a sign, I want to believe,â
âAm I who you think about in bed,â
âI hope to God it was worth it,â
âIâve got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck,â
âLetâs get these teen hearts beating faster (faster),â
âI hope you didnât expect to be all of the attention,â
âNow Iâm of consenting age,â
âIâm exactly where you want me you know,â
âI wouldnât be caught dead in this place,â
âBuild God, then weâll talk,â
âWhat a wonderful caricature of intimacy,â
âSugar, weâre going down swinging,â
âI am missing you to death,â
âItâs just past 8 and Iâm feeling young and reckless,â
âWeâre only good liars, but weâre the best,â
âDoesnât it feel like out time is running out?â
âMay nothing but death do us part,â
âPut your venom in me,â
âI slept in last nightâs clothes and tomorrowâs dreams,â
âLet me tell you one more time,â
âBut I love her anyway,â
âWhere will you be waking up tomorrow morning?â
âBe careful making wishes in the dark,â
âIâm just dreaming about tearing you apart,â
âAll the writers keep writing what they right,â
âIâve got the scars from tomorrow,â
âI just gotta get you off the cage,â
âIâm a young loverâs rage,â
âIf it feels good, tastes good, it must be mine,â
âHeroes always get remembered, but you know legends never die,â
âIâm taking back the crown!â
âAnd if you donât know now you know,â
âDone my time and served my sentence,â
âDress me up and watch me die,â
âLet me be your killer king,â
âIt hurts until it stops,â
âItâs love until itâs not,â
âOn a killing spree in white,â
âFifty words for murder and Iâm every one of them,â
âMy touch is black and poisonous,â
âWeâre still so young, desperate for attention,â
âStop stalling, make a name for yourself,â
âIf you talk you better walk you better back your shit up,â
âYouâre behind my eyelids when Iâm all alone,â
âYouâll dance to anything,â
âI was just a fine guy, living on my own,â
âI really hoped that you would stay,â
âI hardly knew a thing about you,â
âI forgot how to call you,â
âI need to take a vacation,â
âWeâre going very far,â
âWhen I started writing you this song, I was heels over head in love,â
âI tried to love you, but you still loved him,â
âLie to the truth,â
âI know I broke your heart. Mine is broken too,â
âI think iâve had enough,â
âI guess Iâve had enough of you,â
âDonât wait around for love,â
âYouâre not what heâs thinking of,â
âYou were right, and I was wrong,â
âLife is not a fairytale,â
âThey will send him straight to jail,â
âMaybe I will, maybe I wonât,â
âI donât want to find my home,â
âPeople get old when theyâre alone,â
âDo not be afraid,â
âIs âyoungâ a word for âdumbâ?â
âEvery night, like itâs our job,â
âAnd it really hurts when itâs wrong,â
âWe would have the time of our lives,â
âDarling, how can I forget you now?â
âSay youâll be mine now,â
âShe comes to me when I dream,â
âAll I do is lie,â
âStep outside your door and go down to the shore,â
âYouâre all thatâs left for me,â
âWho knew that love was a dangerous drug?â
âIâm search for something that I canât reach,â
âI donât like them innocent,â
âI like the sad eyes, bad guys, mouth full of white lies,â
âKiss me in the corridor but quick to tell me goodbye,â
âI canât find you in the body sleeping next to me,â
âWhat happened to the soul that you used to be?â
âSaying that I love him, but I know Iâm gonna leave him,â
âYou say that youâre no good for me,â
âI am a one night stand,â
âMy demons are begging me to open up my mouth,â
âHe could never love somebodies daughter,â
âGoddamn right you should be scared of me,â
âYou know the two of us are just young gods,â
âDo you know whatâs worth fighting for?â
âDoes it take your breath away?â
âDoes the pain why out the pride?â
âDid someone break your heart from inside?â
âGive up the fight,â
âDid you try to live on your own,â
âDid you stand too close to the fire,â
âYouâve lost all sense of control,â
âYour thoughts have taken their toll,â
âYour faith walks on broken glass,â
âNothingâs ever built to last,â
âSomething inside this heart has died,â
âI walk a lonely road,â
âCheck my vital signs,â
âSometimes I wish someone out there will find me,â
âThe innocent can never last,â
âSeven years have gone so fast,â
âHere comes the rain again,â
âI know I canât take one more step towards you,â
âDonât you know Iâm not your ghost anymore?â
âYou lost the love I loved the most,â
âI learned to live half a life,â
âWho do you think you are?â
âSo donât come back for me,â
âI hear youâre asking all around if I am anywhere to be found,â
âBut I have grown too strong to ever fall back in your arms,â
âIt took so long just to feel alright,â
âI wish I had missed the first time that we kissed,â
âYou donât get to get me back,â
âHow can I love when Iâm afraid to fall?â
âI have died everyday waiting for you,â
âAll along I believed I would find you,â
âI kissed a girl, and I liked it,â
âYou think Iâm pretty without any makeup on,â
âLetâs go all the way tonight,â
âWe can dance until we die,â
âYou and I, weâll be young forever,â
âLetâs run away and donât ever look back,â
âWe drove to Cali, and got drunk on the beach,â
âI finally found you,â
âBe my teenage dream tonight,â
âThereâs a stranger in my bed,â
âThereâs a pounding in my head,â
âI smell like a minibar,â
âDJâs passed out in the yard,â
âBarbieâs on the barbeque,â
âIs this a hickie or a bruise?â
âPictures of last night ended up online,â
âYeah we danced on table tops,â
âAnd we took too many shots,â
âThink we kissed but I forgot,â
âWe went streaking in the park,â
âSkinny dipping in the dark,â
âYeah I think we broke the law,â
âWarrantâs out for my arrest,â
âThink I need a ginger ale,â
âThat was such an epic fail,â
âI know a place where the grass is really greener,â
âThere must be something in the water,â
âYou donât have to feel like a wasted space,â
âUsed to steal your parentâs liquor and climb to the roof,â
âIn another life, I would be your girl,â
âI would make you stay,â
âNever one without the other, we made a pact,â
âSometimes when I miss you, I put those records on,â
âItâs time to face the music, Iâm no longer your muse,â
âI should have told you what you meant to me,â
âI used to bite my tongue and hold my breath,â
âI guess I forgot I had a choice,â
âI let you push me past the breaking point,â
âI stood for nothing, so I fell for everything,â
âYou held me down, but I got up,â
âGet ready cause Iâve had enough,â
âI went from zero to my own hero,â
âYouâre so hypnotizing,â
âCould you be the devil?â
âCould you be an angel?â
âYouâre not like the others,â
âThey donât understand you,â
âYouâre from a whole nother world,â
âBoy, youâre my lucky star,â
âFor you Iâll risk it all,â
âYou were gonna come to me,â
âYou better choose carefully,â
âMake me your one and only,â
âDonât make me your enemy,â
âSo, you wanna play with magic,â
âBoy, you should know what youâre falling for,â
âAre you ready for a perfect storm?â
âItâs in the palm of your hand, now baby,â
âItâs a yes or a no. No maybe,â
âIf you get the chance you better keep her,â
âI donât really care which side wins,â
âIâm not a shoulder to cry on,â
âI want these words to make things right,â
âIâll be the one if you want me to,â
âI am feeling so small,â
âYouâre the one that I love, and Iâm saying goodbye,â
âAnywhere I would have followed you,â
âWeâre all too small to talk to God,â
âWeâre all too smart to talk to God,â
âOh how itâs been so long,â
âWeâre so sorry weâve been gone,â
âYou donât have to worry,â
