Secrets 04:03
I've been pacing halls, stuck in church room stalls Just to pray to a God that I haven't believed in I wrote letters and line and burned them one at a time And if these walls could talk I'd slit their throats just to keep them quite You're a reminder of the Summer and everything we had You're a liar, not a lover, watch these stage lights fade to black I think he's your dirtiest secret And I know how well you can keep it And you know how it gets me Whenever he's around I know he's your dirtiest secret So swallow your sorrows and regret That I hate you and you hate me Whenever he's around I had you in mind while I watched sparks ignite 'Cause without fire I'll have a Hell of a time burning all of our bridges And you said "lay me down" in the woods by your house Don't bother call, I could care less about the way that his lips taste So don't call it romance, call it last chance, call it "keep me while you can" I was hopeless, you were hoping I wouldn't find your one night stand So now you're crying like he broke your heart, yeah? I wanna watch you fall apart and I wanna see you fall asleep in his loving arms And wake up to missing me I know it hurts because he's miles away and I wanna watch you break down in every way I wanna see you fall asleep with a smile on And wake up in misery

I know your lungs fill up with smoke The things you touch turn into gold And every time you come around you swear you wanna settle down His lips still break the mold So put your hands up if you're feeling in love I put my hands up, I feel a victim of lust I've got the 'L-S-T', all I need is the 'U' And if my words caught fire would yours burst too? Or would you lay with me tangled in these sheets? I wanna watch you burn I wanna hear you scream I built a fire with the town's reminds To keep you warm and keep you safe You'd whisper what you'd do to me like something from a movie scene With tongues like razor blades I throw my hands to the sky and let the world know we're on fire tonight So put your hands to the sky and let the world know we're on fire tonight So put your hands up if you're feeling in love So put your hands up now are you feeling in love? I put my hands up I think I'm feeling in love I put my hands up 'cause I fell a victim of

I've been tearing down pictures from my walls I've grown to hate 'Cause in the last few years I know I've changed, but at least I haven't stayed the same Why are you laughing? It's easy to see That you've been lying to yourself just as much as you lie to me Tear down my ego and tell me I'm wrong Make me believe in the nothing you are Take all my friends to the closest river Pray that they drown when they don't deliver.. You've got a monster under your bed and a skeleton in your closet Saying that you hate this confrontation when you're the one who caused it You've got the devil raging inside you with this piano in your hands You put on a smile for the world to see, but behind closed doors it's insanity Take all your shots down and swallow your pills If that doesn't kill you my words surely will Take all my friends to the closest river Pray that they drown when they don't deliver The words that I'm hoping that I'd hear them say I'll smile while they current takes them away I found a note you wrote to yourself, it was swept away by the current It said 'S.O.S' in bright-blood red and I decided that you weren't worth it But when my ship has finally set sail, I would leave you stranded at the shore But I would turn around and save you because that's what friends are for Break every promise and let me down slow I'd hang from these fixtures, I can't let this go [Mike Felker] Tell me where do you get off letting down everyone you meet? With lies flowing through your veins, can you tell me how your heart beats? You're building a kingdom of distrust and deceit, swallow your pride I've laid it all on the line, just to see you throw me to the tide -- Drop dead

Last Call 03:48
I was lost and you were found Everything reminds me of you in this town You're a liar and it shows through the things you do But jealousy looks too cute on you I don't care to know about the way you feel or think My daddy taught me to wash away my problems with a drink And I know the ring he bought you keeps your fingers warm I'll brace myself for this thunder storm You've been spending all your darkest days Painting my heart your favorite shades of grey But who's to say That things can't change Tear down my walls and tell me I could be your everything Gunna make me, make me Feel like I'm your only one then pawn me Like a diamond ring And I'll take it over ice like you're a bottle of a cheap champagne Gunna drink you, drink you up Like it's my last call on Saturday night Everybody knows that you're my favorite war to fight Attention everybody from my high school halls My girl got engaged to the one who's wrong Call her what you will, call her used and cheap 'Cause the boy she's gunna marry has the same name as me You're a whore and I don't mean to be rude or rash But you couldn't pay me to take you back I hope that everytime he makes you scream his name I'm the one you see, I'm the one you taste I hate to break it to you but I hate your face I hate to break it to you but I hate your taste I hate to break it to you but I've lost my faith In everyone around me and you're to blame

You're like a heart attack He's got you sweating saying he wants you back And I'll be fine Knowing I'll satisfy your taste with cigarettes and wine They're saying "mayday! mayday! boys -- they drive you crazy." Houston, we're going down They're saying "baby! baby! girls -- they drive you insane" How did we get here now? You're one in a million who sleeps with the villain And hates everybody else You're a liar and you're a cheat but how do you find sleep When you should be with me? When you should be with me You've got me wasted I'm love drunk off the way your lips feel against my lips You're shameless Your boyfriend's starring, you don't hesitate to reel me in They're saying "whisper! whisper! girl I'll watch your hips stir" My demon's coming out They're screaming "kiss her! kiss her! boy -- you're gunna miss her" Bet he regrets this now You're one in a million who sleeps with the villain And hates everybody else You're a liar and you're a cheat but how do you find sleep When you should be with me? When you should be with me You're one in a million, a normal civilian who plays everybody else You're a faker and you're a fraud, but please don't get me wrong It really turns me on, it really turns me on You've got me right where you want me

I'll be the ghost that you saw in your rear view mirror I'll be your last words spoke before your falling tears I'll be the worst in you If you're the best in me, the best in me You'll be the curse to my name in your final breath Before you say "goodbye", you leave me in suspense I'll be the promise that you break I'll be your nervous shake, I'll be your God damn heart rate Honey, you used to know me oh so well And I don't even know you anymore You're like a vision or a dream or a made up movie scene That never happened -- but still I'm asking you I'd ask you formally to marry me tonight And these stars in your eyes Have never shined so brightly Tonight You tied the thickest noose, wrapped it around my neck You kicked the chair right out from underneath my legs You've got me tongue tied and afraid Of the storm and the winds from these title waves I've got a long list of things that I wish I could say But I set them on fire and sent them away So can you tell me "how's he taste?" I'm losing track of time, I haven't slept in days Sweetie, you built me up just to break me down You tied me up and kicked me while I was on the ground He pulls your hair and makes you scream, I wake up from this terrible dream That never happened -- but still I'm asking you I'd ask you formally to marry me tonight And these stars in your eyes Have never shined so brightly Tonight You'd whisper secrets and made promises to keep If you're the waves, I'm the beach So come and crash into me Tonight Spin me around in circles Spin me around in circles

Oh no, the hospital's calling, your heart-rate is falling (it hurts to know) That I was at home and you were alone Please stay, I'm sorry Don't go, I should have never left you alone I found all those notes that I wrote and sent to you Before you had your breakdown Dear God, please help me Move on, and when you're dead and gone I'll drop down on my knees and pray out loud For nothing but "forgiveness" All those words I spoke to you weren't true I take back everything but "I love you" Hey, read me all your vows before you take your final bow Don't you know that you're the main attraction? All I see are flashing lights and all I hear is your flat-line Hear my words to show you my reaction She said, "don't take this out on me tonight" I said, "don't go down without a fight" 'Cause we both know that you're stronger than that Whether you admit it or not She wrote, "I love you but this is goodbye" And I thought we could give it one more try But I guess I was wrong And I have no alibi to abide by You could be all I need, you could be the air I breathe You could be everything if you come back to me I was so scared and alone wishing that you were back home Here are some words to get through "I love you"
