Love Junkie (Jenny)
03:02
|
|||
Love is a dead weight that grows inside me like a tumor
Sits in my blood and eats me away, day by day
Love is a parasite that never stops feeding off it's host
It's an infected limb I just can't bring myself to cut off
I'm so embarrassed, I am just like you
Kiss me till I'm black and blue.
Don't let me breathe, and make it sting
Keep me on a short leash
Tie it off and shoot me up - I'm a junkie for your love
Oh I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough
Love is a black hole that pulls on me from every angle
Only Jenny knows how to make me think
That it's a beautiful thing
But I can't believe what she sings
Cause she says
Don't let me breathe, and make it sting
Keep me on a short leash
Tie it off and shoot me up - I'm a junkie for your love
Oh I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough
Left to fight the ghost of you, and I've got nothing else to lose
So I'm going down, down, down
I'll find someone bigger, stronger
Someone who will hit me harder
Hit me baby one more time
Cause I only like it when it hurts
I only want it if it's gonna sting
It seems I only love you when you're mean
And if it doesn't hurt then I can't feel a thing
Cause I only like it when it hurts
I only want it if it's gonna sting
It seems I only love you when you're mean
And if it doesn't hurt then I can't feel a thing

Gone
03:10
|

Remembering the places where I once belonged
Reaching out for someone who is gone
Can I find the will to carry on?
Will there be some strength inside this song?
Remembering the people that I used to know
Hoping that one of them will grow
Into someone who will lead the choir and I'll just sing along
Will there be some strength inside this song?
I am down trodden, I am feeling weak
If I keep my head down maybe I will see
Seven days of solitude but I'm not free
I'm longing for what used to be a part of me
Remembering something I forgot long ago
Hoping that maybe it will show
Me a way to get to you with both feet on the ground
Cause honey I am lost inside your sound
I am down hearted I am feeling weak
If I take my clothes off, maybe I will see
Seven days of solitude but I'm not free
I'm longing for what used to be a part of me
We build and we build and we build and we build but it fades
I love like I breathe, it's why my heart still beats
Seven days of solitude but I'm not free
I'm longing for what used to be a part of me
But oh, oh I see
Who you're meant to be
You're not alone, never alone
And oh, oh I need
I need you here with me
I'll be your own
Oh we'll call it home
Oh we'll call it home

Don't Tempt Me
03:18
|
|||
Fill me up with your love, give me everything I need
Raise the bar, take me far
Further then we ever dreamed
Don't tempt me with your heart, I want to drain you dry
Don't give away your trust, you know I'll only lie
Fill me up with your love, give me everything I need
Give it all, and do it now
But I won't give you a thing
You're in trouble and you don't even see
All the danger that comes with loving me
Slow it down, speed it up
Oh I had you so deceived
Well take a bow you found me out
Put me right back on my knees
Don't tempt me with your void I want to fill you up
With the pieces of a love that I ripped apart
Give me just what I want before I cut it out of you
I will take what I please, boy you haven't got a clue
What you're in for, oh baby what's in store for you
Show me up, you can try oh, but you're not getting through
You're not getting through
You're not getting through
Slow it down, speed it up
Oh I had you so deceived
Well take a bow you found me out
Put me right back on my knees
Don't tempt me with your void I want to fill you up
With the pieces of a love that I ripped apart

House of Skin and Bone
02:59
|
|||
The sun is in the east, and I'm happy here on your skin
The window is open, the light's pouring in
You're the world to me, you'll see
You're that impossible sound, you're right where I want to be
When there was nothing but silence you showed me the song,
I was so lonely till you brought me along
Now I wanna know when this will start to feel real
I want to know exactly how you feel
I don't always think before I act
I don't ever mean to get like that
Can you hear me now?
We got so lost somehow
Can we get through my lies?
One of us screams, the other cries
When there was nothing but silence you showed me the sound
When there was nothing but ocean you brought me to ground
Now I can't believe that I have brought us here
Despite my best intentions dear
We're lost inside our past
We could run, I'd rather we last
A house of skin and bone
A house of skin and bone
I called you home, I called you home

If We Agree
03:22
|
|||
Withholding your love, cause I have dried you up
Oh we agree, I did this
Now I'm trying to be all that you need
But she's someone I have never met, never seen
So now you're walking out the door and I can't fight you anymore
I told myself last time that next time, I'd let you walk away
So why can't I?
Love, love, you never know
What you've got until it's gone
Alone and face to face with all I lack
Blame it on some piece of me
From my broken history
But no, I don't think you're ever coming back
The wreckage of my mind
The parts that fall outside
The lines that you draw for me
Oh I can't seem to stay through these phases
The questions she raises
The moon reminds me of you
If we agree it must be true
Love, love, you never know
What you've got until it's gone
Alone and face to face with all I lack
Blame it on some piece of me
From my broken history
But no, I don't think
You're ever coming back to our home
Where so much love was made
And our dusty piano that never got played
Oh I don't want to say goodbye
And every time you try we find that I am not,
I'm not too proud to beg
The wreckage of my mind
The parts that fall outside
The lines that you draw for me
Oh I can't seem to stay through these phases
The questions she raises
The moon reminds me of you
If we agree it must be true
Oh if we agree it must be true
Oh if we agree

The Way
05:16
|
|||
I'm calling out, I'm calling out for you
I'm falling down, now that I see we've fallen through
I built a future on your name and I still want it to come true
You feel it too, I know you do
I only have myself to blame for losing you
I treated your love like a game, what were you supposed to do?
But not I'm calling out and you're not coming through
I need you to
You know I do
But oh isn't that the way?
And oh, everything will change
Because some things grow, but all things go
You've been the lover of my life, and I'm sure that this is real
And now your cancer will not shake me,
Cannot change the way I feel
You shouldn't have to hit the ground so young
And I don't want to lose the man that I love
But oh isn't that the way?
And oh, everything will change
Because some things grow, but all things go
Oh some things grow, but all things go
Moving closer every day it seemed
Yet I still wait here down on my knees
I had it all, I had it all
It was just too hot to hold I let it fall
So now I'm grieving for the children that we won't ever make
And there are acres of regret down every road we'll never take
I'm just waiting on you now, and waiting for my heart to break
Let me just say that this is a mistake
Fuck you and your untouchable face
But oh isn't that the way?
And oh, everything will change
Because some things grow, but all things go
Oh some things grow, but all things go

Gullible Consumer
02:56
|
|||
What are you doing to me, what are you doing my love?
Well I'm plucking out your heartstrings, you know they just weren't good enough for you,
Oh for you
What are you doing to me, what are you doing my love?
Well I'm trying to fix your moral compass,
Seems it's pointed north and that won't do
Cause there's no part of me that is willing to buy
i just don't believe in the love that your kind
Has to sell, has to sell, has to sell
To gullible consumers like me
Well I'm swallowing razors to cut you up
You say that you're inside of me
Well I hope that you're as tough as you claim, as you claim
Cause there's no part of me that is willing to buy
I just don't believe in the love that your kind
Has to sell, has to sell, has to sell
To gullible consumers like me
Oh well I cannot lie, I will not say this was some accident
I might as well lived off your blood, how thorough you've been spent
But there's some good news, now you know what you must do
I'm coming for you
What are you doing to me, what are you doing my love?
Well I'm sick of all of your complaining,
It's time to shut you up
And I would if I didn't think you'd like it so damn much
You fucking slut
Oh well I cannot lie I will not say this was some accident
I might as well lived off your blood, how thorough you've been spent
But there's some good news, now you know what you must do
I'm cuming

Oh Well
03:46
|
|||
Oh those long summer nights, back when he was mine
If that man was still alive today, only God knows how I'd love him
But he washed away with the tide
He dove straight into the sea
He didn't stop to think of those who loved him
No, he chose insanity
Oh the savage roads that we will walk
And oh well, but our paths may never cross
I left you for dead, and I'm never, no I'm never looking back
Hatred is a funny, funny thing
It burrowed deep inside of me but now it wants to sing about
How I left you for dead and I'm proud
And I'll never, ever, ever turn around
Because oh you got what you came
Forced my legs as wide as your grave
Your ghost is nothing like the man you were
But you still demand to be saved
Why won't you let me go?
Setting up camp inside my bones
You didn't stop once to think of me,
No, you chose insanity
Why won't you let me go?
Setting up camp inside my bones
You didn't stop once to think of me,
No, you chose insanity
Now hatred is a funny, funny thing
It burrowed deep inside of me but now it wants to sing about
How I left you for dead and I'm proud
And I'll never, ever, ever turn around
I'll never, ever, ever, ever
I'll never, ever, ever turn around

White Light
02:55
|
|||
White light, it's a cold night
I had nine lives, you wrecked them all
I blame, it's a tough game, but I
I just can't take you on
It's so distressing waiting for the ride
Overestimating how you feel inside
For a while, maybe longer if I tried
White light, it's a hot knife
You read my mind and took it all
I pray, but I can't say, no I
I just don't know at all
Ooh it's so distressing waiting for the ride
Overestimating how you feel inside
For a while maybe longer if I tried
You don't get to bleed me out
You don't get to knock me down
You don't get to run me round, round, round
You don't get to bleed me out
You don't get to knock me down
You don't get to tell me now, now, now
Why lie? It's a rough ride, when I don't have you by my side
I'm game, but I can't play, no I just can't have you in my life
Ooh it's so distressing waiting for the ride
Overestimating how you feel inside
For a while maybe longer if I tried
You don't get to bleed me out
You don't get to knock me down
You don't get to tell me now
You don't get to show me how
You don't get to run me round
You don't get to knock me down
You don't get to bleed me out
You don't get to bleed me out
