You and me and/All our history You, you, you and me/It makes we Shel Silverstein, you’re the missing piece I’ve made a mistake/And baby, ain’t no way We could lay/Rewind the tape \Erase all the pain/Nothing left to gain I’d rather take/2 shots to the brain Than to cause you any more strain I could picture your face You’re my saving grace All I can beg/Please just stay (x2) Baby stay We were meant to be/Not a mystery Now I'm incomplete/And tell me you can't see You're the perfect missing oiece You plus me that makes we--oui Yes please/There's only So much/I can say So please just, please just, please just Stay/Baby stay

Rest your weary head/Take time off, lay in bed You can take naps/In the middle of the day Don’t listen to them/Doesn’t matter what they say If that’s how we get you back/Lay there in your sad Take time to remember/When we hung together Feels like forever/Don’t feel any pressure My hand is here/Outstretched to stay If you slap it away I’ll know you’re having a sad day Every once in awhile/Gets too tough to smile I get you’re in a bad way (x2) Maybe it’s reversed/And you feel like you’re cursed We’ll be there for you anyway Your true friends/Will remain til the end You don’t have to try and save face You are trying your best/You haven’t failed Just takes longer to pass the test/When you’re depressed It might take days, weeks, months(x2) Just keep your head above the waves Try to remain brave/Yours won’t be the only soul you save Smart man once said “Easy to die, harder to live” And yeah you get the gist/Cause everybody’s been Hammering it into your head Yeah you might wanna give-give/Give up your very last fuck That you had to give-Your will to live Here’s the thing/Don’t dismiss all the joy you bring It might take days, weeks, months (x2) Just keep your head above/The trying stuff Because it’s enough/To pull the rug Then you’re drug/Back through the mud Once again falling into the hole you’ve dug Rest your weary head/Take time off, lay in bed You can take naps/In the middle of the day Don’t listen to them/Doesn’t matter what they say If that’s how we get you back/Lay there in your sad Take time to remember/When we hung together Feels like forever/Don’t feel any pressure My hand is here/Outstretched to stay If you slap it away I’ll know you’re having a sad day Every once in awhile/Gets too tough to smile I get you’re in a bad way (x2) Maybe it’s reversed/And you feel like you’re cursed We’ll be there for you anyway/Your true friends Will remain til the end/You don’t have to try and save face You are trying your best/You haven’t failed Just takes longer to pass the test/When you’re depressed (Chorus):It might take days, weeks, months(x2) Just keep your head above’ the waaaaves Try to remain brave/Yours won’t be the only soul you save Smart man once said “Easy to die, harder to live” And yeah you get the gist/Cause everybody’s been Hammering’ it into your head Yeah you might wanna give-give/Give up your very last fuck That you had to give-Your will to live Here’s the thing/Don’t dismiss all the joy you bring (Chorus):It might take days, weeks, months(x2) Just keep your head above/The trying stuff Because it’s enough/To pull the rug Then you’re drug/Back through the mud Once again falling into the hole you’ve dug/Then you’re stuck All the grief, you been feelin/All the pain, you been dealin With/We can pull you outta this/Reach up and grab my wrist We’ll board the pit It might take days, weeks, and months It might take days, weeks, months Just keep your head above

Holding you close?That could be enough The tip of your toes, sink into my touch, touch J'adore mi amore, you're worth more Than I can afford I'm not quite on course I'm awkward I'm paranoid But I'm working on my inner core Til I'm polished steel, sharp and shiny as a sword I'll fight any battle, I'd war for months The thoughts that did rattle, when I cut you so coarse I promise to hold you wrap you in my arms Not cause I'm told to, it's what you care for Two birds with one stone cause i need your warmth I need your warmth, I need your warmth And I love you more than I care to admit to myself I guess that's not considered too good for my health Here I am laying, not wanting to move So I picked up praying what else can I do You won't give me a chance to prove What else have I got to lose I started praying to gods and deities Aphrodite, when will she write me Cupid how could I be so stupid Upping the intake of fluids I got distracted, got confused I started acting like a douche And I was lit with a short fuse No shocker, your heart hurts/From all the abuse If you're searching for the true Nature of my intentions, was not to cause any tension I'm a coward, countless times I have mentioned No excuse for withdrawing acting different I retreated into the into the into the trenches God! We are in these trenches I'm bleeding out, without a doubt The gauze won't help/Get the vicar I'm headed there quicker/Than I ever thought And you are in my thoughts It feels like I be getting lostHere I am laying, not wanting to move So I picked up praying what else can I do You won't give me a chance to prove What else have I got to lose I started praying to gods and deities Aphrodite, when will she write me Cupid help me be a lil less stupid I got distracted, got confused I was lit with a short fuse I was jaded, awfully faded, awfully excused Yet you patiently waited/Only for my mistake to shake it Off the tracks, the monkeys on my back Caused the derail, and all I do is dwell Cause I allowed myself, to kick dust off the shelves Picture of us together Hugged up in sweater weather Your head on my shoulder, I smile and pull you in closer

When Can I 03:48
I’ll run right back to you if it means that we can be As we used to be/Forget about the past And the things you used to do to me/But I’m so clearly The way you make me feel when you’re in front of me [x2] Sometimes I just cease to see So here it is as it resides in me Amidst the screaming, lying, crying It’s blinding/I’m capsizing/No more hiding, no more hiding I stop breathing when you’re nearing Cause my nerves they get the best of me And these words they take the rest of me I stop breathing when you’re nearing You appeared to sweep me off my feet More like dirt into the street Roses really smell like shi- Told my heart as it skipped a beat Got a stamp on my head that says mistreat, says mistreat Said we were just talking/Now I’m puppy dogging Just hanging and rocking/My bad I made assumptions We all bleed maroon/We all sing the blues It’s really nothing new/Just that you started to to-to-Tune in/You won’t catch a grin Appearing on my skin/Unless you ink it in You'll have to look Again (x3) [x2] Hope it leaves you shook/There’s no closing the book On this one/Pray to God you’ve learned your lesson I can’t keep stressin/Cause you are messin with my feelings I can’t keep on dealin/Man I’m barely breathing I'm barely breathing I stop breathing when you’re nearing Cause my nerves And these words, these words I stop breathing

You, your laugh You, your smile You would hold me for a little while and let me give you sass Lose sleep when you're around me So sweet just like a candy Cause all i want to do is keep touching you And I can't cause you got Work in the morning, work in in the morning, work But that don't Stop me from wanting, stop me from wanting, more Unfair distraction It's my attraction That keeps me batting My eyes at you Unfair distraction It's my attraction To you, that springs a tune With you I'm always in the mood Whether we're...no need to be crude You're one rad human, mad cute and Glad I have you Could ask for All of my lovin, here til the mornin, or I put you out Get my work done, then have you over, snore

Sometimes I wish that I could go Where nobody knows, nobody knows I can feel the grass underneath my toes Where the roses grow, the daisies bloom Lay my body down near the shadows I dip my toes in, to the deep end Then the cold, it starts to seep in But it was hot outside, and I done left my ride This cold (x3) It starts to feel old But I was born to be bold Claim this land as my own Wandering alone, alone Along the mountains and roads Where we talk real low Don't come too close Sometimes I wish that I could go Where nobody knows Nobody knows Sometimes I wish that I could go Where nobody knows

Got No Idea 02:25
Feels like blessings are caressing At the edge of my perceptions If I could open my eyes Grab it and ride, off in the night High in the sky, so high I'll disappear Into the stratosphere Can't keep me here my dear/Too queer I'm destined for more than this This Earth can give She's dying and I don't wanna live Leave her alone, she won't let me go Won't let me go I got no idea/What I'm doing here It's not very clear/But I'm getting near Yet I still got no idea/I still got no idea Past reflections, in the right direction A lack of circumspection It'll lead me to my destiny Where I wanna be But it's all a big guess for me And it's all a big "Yes baby" I got no idea/What I'm doing here It's not very clear/But I'm getting near Yet i still got no idea/I still got no idea
8.
Less Than 03:32
I can’t apologize/Enough For what/I did (x3) So I thought I would write you this Consider this a testament I was always less than You deserved/I have lost my nerve But I’m sure you’ve heard That these words they serve As a reminder/To all the hurt And this won’t begin/To make a dent Or an imprint/Of what you meant For all the time I spent Wrapped up in my own shit So I thought I would write you this Consider it a testament I was always less than You deserved I thought I would write you this For all the things I did/For what I left unsaid When you’re ready/I’ll accept my punishment Or if you so choose, the silent treatment But I thought I would try to mend This pain I can’t seem to stop causing Well I thought But if not Simply pretend I don’t exist

Sweet lady, I’m wanting to love you In the grand scheme of things/Did I even stop to think If you love me too, if you loved me Guess I just assumed My heart ended up bruised and battered This fate I did choose As a matter of fact Retract, it shattered/But does it even matter You’ve moved on even faster Than I dared to entertain Held you timeless, suspended, in my brain Rude to assume I was the only one who’d change But these days, if I see your face I’d crumple faster than a batter Hitting paper machié So I'll just drink it away, I'll just drink it away These days, if I see your face I'd crumple faster than a batter Hitting paper machié So I'll just drink it away If I see your face You've moved on even faster I'll just drink it These days, if I see your face Sweet lady So I'll just drink it away (x2) These days, if I see your face I'd crumple faster than a batter Hitting paper machié So I'll just drink it away (x2) If I see your face I'd crumple faster than a batter
10.
I’m fine without ya/Don’t gotta whine about ya (x2) Did I tell you that I’m loving being free Make no mistake/Twas an arrow through the heart You tried to rip it away/Yet it will always leave an ugly scar Choose to marvel at your work/Better yet, run off, and go berserk And these words can serve as a reminder White picket fence, no common sense That time when I, fuckin lost my mind Found it in your eyes/And I slipped quietly Between your sheets/Between your knees Forgot the rest of the world/Content to stay as “your girl" Let’s get real/Lost sight of myself There’s a stranger in the mirror/But I couldn’t be seeing clearer Break the glass!/Forget the temptation No more continuation to this endless conversation We keep having, we keep gabbing, we keep blabbing Ugch! Like blah, blah, blah Don’t care no more/Please shut the door Cause(x3) I’m fine without ya/Don’t gotta whine bout ya Did I tell you that I’m loving being free You do you and I’ll do me Ain't no cold nights upcoming Warmed by my fingers cross the page Loving boxing you up in your place Now I get to stand tall, not going to fall Got my back up against the wall/Won’t get me to crawl Hell naw! Out come the claws Let’s start by flipping you off/Then ripping you off me Deep enough that the cuts start to bleed And growing weak, you kneel down before me Man, like a lamb lead to slaughter Blood starts to flow like the water I’m fine(x3)/Gotta learn these lines So I’m not lyin/I’m tired of cryin I’m tired of trying/Not to be the one that’s left behind I’m gone stay on my grind/Cut you outta my life *snip snip* that quick Close the wound, there’s no time Can’t hit rewind/Repeat these lines, in your mind You’re fine, fine, fine, fine, fine Get outta your mind So you're not lyin You're fine fine fine
