Are you staring at the reflection?
Your face was there, but your body’s gone
Oh, sonic lover, where have you gone?
For a walk on the platforms with your tall shoes on?
Tell me what you want and what you need,
Tell me what it takes to make you breathe,
Tell me what you want and what you need,
‘Cause I need you
Are you ready, cause the water’s been warm
Oh, sonic baby, you’re sounding up a storm
You were just here, where did you disappear to?
You started to laugh, you said “it’s not so bad without you”
Tell me what it takes to make you mine,
Tell me how to keep you satisfied,
Tell me how to keep you warm at night,
Cause I need you
Cause I need you
Cause I need you
Cause I need you…

Headrush

More addictive that cigarette smoke
You’re more addictive than chocolate, I know
More addictive than rain in July
More addictive than cute boys who cry
And I miss the way that I thought this was more
I miss the way that you’d talk to me everyday
and I miss the way that I mistook your attention for love
But oh, you gave me such a headrush…
It’s too early in the morning to call
How I wish I hadn’t started to fall
It’s too late, in the evening to come over
How I wish we could just start over
Oh, we’ll all start over…
And I…
Miss the way that I thought this was more
I miss the way that you’d talk to me everyday
and I miss the way that I mistook your attention for love
But oh, you gave me such a headrush…

Pretty In Your Eyes
03:20

Anything, I would have done
I would change myself all for you
Grow my hair, bask in the sun
Anything just to be pretty in your eyes
I’ve noticed that thats what I’ve done
With everyone I’ve ever loved
Molded and shaped who I was
For the person i held dear and true
I want to look at the world
Without rules
Of how we should act and how we should be
What if none of it mattered anymore?
Would I still be pretty in your eyes?
Ijust want to be pretty in your eyes
If I held my own
If I was all mine,
How would I be?
And if I wore my skin for myself,
Not for you,
Would I find it redeeming?
Would I find it redeeming?
I want to be pretty in your eyes
I want to be pretty in your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes

Inside A Memory
03:45

In the summertime you got cold
Sitting there saying you were too old for this shit
I was smiling big trying to give you a kiss,
You turned away
Things may change, mmm
And I’m not saying that we are better, nor the same
But right now, baby, all I do is scream your name
It seems I’m stuck inside a memory
I’m stuck inside a memory
I’m stuck inside
Openness, and willingness
Is something special you can do for someone
And while you’re out there having fun
I know you stop and think of me…
Real love, it is pure,
But, my god, my heart shouldn’t be this sore
And I don’t know how to make it stop anymore
Seems I’m stuck inside a memory
I’m stuck inside a memory
I’m stuck inside a memory
I’m stuck inside a memory
Oh, I know, I know
I’m not saying that I’m perfect, nor are you
But, we’re better than the shit we put ourselves through
It seems I’m stuck inside a memory
I’m stuck inside a memory
I’m stuck inside your memory...

My Name Is To Call
04:53

My name is to call
So take me with you
I need to get away before I’m screwed
My name is to call
And the list is getting long
I need to get away before I’m screwed
Night has fell upon
And we’ll all soon be gone
Oh, I’ll hide away with you
Or else the both of us are screwed
Nihilist extremes will be the death of me
Oh, the boys are all killing every soul you’ll ever meet
I swore it would get better, and I swore it’d be alright
I swear that I still wake up to sounds in the night
I swore that i’d just face them and run amongst the dark,
But I love it when you scare me, I love it when you’re dark
My name is to call
And you talk about me in your sleep
Oh I know that after all,
All you’ll do is ever creep
My name is to call
And I know that you’re still wondering
And the money that you’re spending has been such a waste.
I swore it would get better, and I swore it’d be alright
I swear that I still wake up to sounds in the night
I swore that i’d just face them and run amongst the dark,
But I love it when you scare me, I love it when you’re dark
Oh, I must admit
You’re my worst fear and my favorite habit
Oh, you’ve come to prove
That your love was never the truth
My name is to call so take me with you,
I need to get away…
I swore it would get better, and I swore it’d be alright
I swear that I still wake up to sounds in the night
I swore that i’d just face them and run amongst the dark,
I love it when you scare me, I love it when you’re dark

Malibu
04:11
|

|
Crawling coast at my side
Turquoise waves catching my eye
A little place to run and hide
Couldn’t find me if you tried
Oh, you won’t forget me
Love me when I’m empty
Who needs people when the ocean loves so gently?
Malibu, malibu is where I’ll be
Beside the rocks and beside the sea
One day, maybe soon
I’ll be, I’ll be in Malibu
I’m not much for the beach,
But I sure like you
Jammin’ to Misirlou like it’s 1962
Pastel dreamin’ in your skies so blue
No one gets me the way you do
Malibu, malibu is where I’ll be
Beside the rocks and beside the sea
One day, maybe soon
I’ll be, I’ll be in Malibu
Malibu, oh malibu
You… have my heart split into two
You took it on the way with you
So tell my lover we are through
Malibu, oh Malibu
You have ny heart split into two
You took it just the other day
When I told the world to go away
Malibu, malibu is where I’ll be
Beside the rocks and beside the sea
One day, maybe soon
I’ll be, I’ll be in Malibu

Different Ground
04:36

I know these just sound like empty words
But there’s just bedsheets where there should be you
And the glow that gave our faces all the light
Choking on dust never did much
I said I cared, I’m really really scared
I let you know, I let you go
Our hearts beat now on different ground
I know how this may sound but I can’t stand not walking the same ground
You made me feel like I was someone so new
Every day you slip so far and so wide
And sometimes I think that I might just miss you
Choking on dust never did much
I said I cared I’m really really scared
I let you know, I let you go
Our hearts beat now on different ground
I know how this may sound
I know how this may sound
I know how this may sound
Choking on dust never did much
I said I cared I’m really really scared
I let you know, I let you go
Our hearts beat now on different ground
Our hearts beat now on different ground
