Animal -- Neon Trees

Here we go again
I kinda wanna be more than friends
So take it easy on me
I'm afraid
You're never satisfied
Here we go again
We're sick like animals
We play pretend
You're just
A cannibal
And I'm afraid
I won't get out alive
I won't sleep tonight

Oh oh
I want some
More
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
Take a bite of
My heart tonight
Oh oh
I want some
More
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
Say goodbye to my heart
Tonight

Here we are again
I feel the chemicals kickin' in
It's getting heavy
And I wanna run
And hide
I wanna run and hide
I do it every time
You're killin' me now
And I won't be
Denied by you
The animal inside of you

Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
Say goodbye to my heart tonight

Hush, hush The world is quiet
Hush, hush We both can't fight it
It's us that made this mess
Why can't you understand?
Whoa, I won't sleep tonight

Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again

Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting

Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again
Say goodbye to my heart tonight

Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
Say goodbye to my heart tonight




I Don't Believe You -- Pink

I don't mind it
I don't mind at all
It's like you're the swing set and I'm the kid that falls
It's like the way we fight, the times I've cried, we come to blows
And every night the passion's there so it's gotta be right, right?

No I don't believe you
When you say don't come around here no more
I won't remind you
You said we wouldn't be apart
No, I don't believe you
When you say you don't need me anymore
So don't pretend
To not love me at all

I don't mind it
I still don't mind at all
It's like one of those bad dreams when you can't wake up
Looks like you've given up, you've had enough
But I want more no I won't stop
'cause I just know you'll come around... right?

No I don't believe you
When you say don't come around here no more
I won't remind you
You said we wouldn't be apart
No, I don't believe you
When you say you don't need me anymore
So don't pretend
To not love me at all

Just don't stand there and watch me fall
'cause I, 'cause I still don't mind at all
It's like the way we fight, the times I cry, we come to blows
And every night the passion's there so it's gotta be right, right?

No I don't believe you
When you say don't come around here no more
I won't remind you
You said we wouldn't be apart
No, I don't believe you
When you say you don't need me anymore
So don't pretend
To not love me at all

I don't believe you

Only Love -- Grace Potter and the Nocturnals

I wake up with my hair on fire
I need something to water me down
I can't keep walking on this wire
I gotta move, I gotta come around

It ain't gonna kill me
If I can stop this before it starts
What don't kill you makes you stronger,
It's only my soul, It's only my heart
And it's only love
It's only love
It's only love
And I can give you up, baby

I wake up with my mind unwinding
I got a strange tingle in my toes
I fall asleep and I dream of finding
Somebody who really knows
It ain't gonna kill me
If I can stop this before it starts
What don't kill you makes you stronger,
It's only my soul, It's only my heart
And it's only love
It's only love
It's only love
And I can give you up, yes I can

I need to loosen my grip just a little bit
I feel this love like a stranglehold
But there's something stopping me from losing it
There's nothing harder than letting go

But it's only love
It's only love
It's only love
And I can give you up, yes I can

Because it's only love
It's only love
It's only love
And I can give you up, yes I can

It's only love
It's only love
It's only love
And I can give you up, my baby

Men & Mascara -- Julie Roberts

Sunday dress hanging on the bedroom door
Empty bottle of wine on the hardwood floor
Last night, he said she was the one
Oh, but men and mascara always run

Did I give my love too soon or wait too long
Did I take it a little too easy, or put it on too strong
She was looking for love, he was looking for fun
Yeah, men and mascara always run

She ain't getting any younger
It wasn't s'posed to be this way
Staring in the mirror
With little black rivers running down her face

Tomorrow's gonna be a brand new day
She'll wake up in the morning and wash it all away
Last night, he said she was the one
Oh, but men and mascara, they always run
Yeah, men and mascara always run

It's A Heartache -- Trick Pony (originally Bonnie Tyler)

It's a heartache,
Nothin' but a heartache:
Hits you when it's too late,
Hits you when you're down.

It's a fool's game,
Nothin' but a fool's game:
Standing in the cold rain,
Feeling like a clown.

It's a heartache,
Nothin' but a heartache:
Love him till your arms break,
Then he lets you down.

It ain't right with love to share,
When you find he doesn't care for you.
It ain't wise to need someone,
As much as I depended on you.

Ah, it's a heartache,
Nothin' but a heartache:
Hits you when it's too late,
Hits you when you're down.
Ah, nah, nah!

Oh, it ain't right with love to share,
When you find he doesn't care for you.
It ain't wise to need someone,
As much as I depended on you.
Ooh.

Ah, it's a heartache,
Nothin' but a heartache:
Love him till your arms break,
Then he lets you down.

(Oh, it's a heartache,)
Oh, it's a fool's game,
(Nothin' but a heartache:)
Standing in the cold rain,
(Standing in the cold rain.)
Feelin' like a clown.

(It's a heartache,)
It's a heartache,
(Nothin' but a heartache:)
Love him till your arms break,
(Love him till your arms break.)
Ah, then he lets you down.
Oh, yeah, down.

Don't Speak -- No Doubt

You and me
We used to be together
Everyday together always
I really feel
That I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end
It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real
Well I don't want to know

Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts

Our memories
Well, they can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening
As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands
I sit and cry

Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no, no)
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts

It's all ending
I gotta stop pretending who we are...

You and me I can see us dying...are we?

Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no)
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't tell me cause it hurts!
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining

Don't speak,
don't speak,
don't speak, no
oh I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
I know you're good,
I know you're good,
I know you're real good
Oh, la la la la la la La la la la la la
Don't, Don't, uh-huh Hush, hush darlin'
Hush, hush darlin' Hush, hush
don't tell me tell me cause it hurts
Hush, hush darlin' Hush, hush darlin'
Hush, hush don't tell me tell me cause it hurts


Here's To The Meantime -- Grace Potter and the Nocturnals

You're running me ragged
I don't do the things I should
If the devil made a fire
You'd be the wood

I've just got one question
Answer me if you could
How can so much trouble
Look so god damn good?

Look at the way that you've been living
Look at the love you should be giving
Look at what tomorrow left behind
Look at at all the life that you've been missing
Look at the girl you could be kissing
Look at what happened in the meantime
Oh, you gotta get yourself back home
Before I find you and kindly remind you, yeah

So come sit down beside me
With a dollar and a dime
And we'll drink away our fortunes
Here's to the meantime

Look at the way that you've been living
Look at the love you could be giving
Look at what tomorrow left behind
Look at at all the life that you've been missing
Look at the girl you should be kissing
Look at what happened in the meantime
Oh, oh, you gotta get yourself back home
Before I find you and kindly remind you, baby yeah

Look at the way that you've been living
Look at the love you should be giving
Look at what tomorrow left behind
Look at at all the life that you've been missing
Look at the girl you could be kissing
Look at what happened in the meantime
Oh, you gotta get yourself back home
Before I find you and kindly remind you, baby
