Ever After-
Once upon a time
I used to romanticize
Used to be somebody, never mind
I don't miss it that much now
I think it's sinking in
The days that I wonder where I've been
And picture perfect porcelain
But I won't lose a pound
pre chorus-
You say I will make a better liar
And never face the music when it's dire
And I breathed it, disaster, ever after
Don't pull away from me now
chorus-
Don't you move
Can't you stay where you are, just for now
I could be your perfect disaster
You could be my ever after
You could be my ever after, after all
I could be your perfect disaster
You could be me ever after
[ Lyrics from: link ]
Apologies, I'm not myself but I can guarantee
That when I get back, you won't believe
That you know me well
Don't want to think about it
I'm fuckin' tired of getting sick about it
Now stand back up and be a man about it
And fight for something, fight for something, fight for something, oh
(pre chorus)
(chorus)
Nobody told ya' this is g'na fold yea
We'll go marching in like toy soldiers
You're having to hold your own, soldier
We're marching like toy soldiers
Somehow don't you defail, fail me now, ever after
Somehow don't you defail, fail me now, ever after
Somehow
(Face the music when it's dire)
Once upon a time
This place was beautiful and mine
But now it's just a bottom line
Barely comes to mind
But ever after was mine
I'll be your disaster, ever after
So fire away
Goodbye
By Now-
How've you been?
Can I come in?
Just came to get my things, and then I guess I'm leaving.
If I could say, what you'd like to hear,
I'd whisper in your ear, it's only temporary.
But I've been taking you for granted
And I thought you'd feel the same as me.
It's time that I come clean but,
But for now can we, just both pretend to sleep?
Sometimes the one you want is not the one you need.
What goes around, don't come around.
You should know me by now.
chorus-
Better than, better than, better than,
You should know me
Better than, better than, better than,
You should know me
Better than, better than, better than,
You should know me
Better than, better than, better than,
I should know you as well
Better than, better than, better than,
You should know me
Better than, better than, better than,
You should know me
Better than, better than, better than,
You should know me
Better than, better than, better than,
You should know me by now,
Our talk is small, I'm seven inches tall
And you should keep the apartment.
So here's my keys, changed all the bills.
We're only built to spill, and wonder where the heart went.
[ Lyrics from: link ]
And you've been taking me for granted
And I thought you feel the same as me.
It's time that I come clean but,
But for now can we, just both pretend to sleep?
Sometimes the one you want, is not the one you need.
What goes around, don't come around.
You should know me by now.
(chorus)
I know that I remember you, I think that you remember me too.
How can one of us still feel blessed when the other one's lost?
I know you got to feel the change, it just get's worse when it stays the same.
How can one of us still feel blessed when the other one is so lost?
By now!
Sometimes the one you want, is not the one you need.
What goes around, don't come around.
But don't you know me by now?
(chorus)
Truth or Dare-
You follow me down to do it,
just follow me down to do it
Nobody will know how you come and you go for it
Not gonna get dangerous,
you not gonna worry bout' us
Somebody to give what you get
and you get what you need now
pre chorus-
And these lights,big bright,
so let me show ya
So so so nice to know ya
chorus-
It's as easy as,
1, 2, 3, do you see what I do
Truth or dare, you said double dare you
What do you mean, now I think I got it
One last breath and just spin the bottle now
*you know that you don't need to be so worried,
even though below I'm still thinking bout' it*
1, 2, 3, now double dare me as well
Truth, dare
*dirty little secret, dirty little secret*
This will be our little
*dirty little secret, dirty little secret*
This we be our little
You get to the slow descent, you get to the trust and feel it
You get to the pull and the push and the forward and back
Ohhh, nothing’s gonna slow you down
I’m not gonna hold you to it
I guess it depends in the end, after all we’re all friends here
Here…
(pre chorus)
(chorus)
*instrumental*
(chorus)
Desperate measures-
Gonna make a heart-throb out of me
Just a bit of minor surgery
These desperate times call for desperate measures
I'll give you something to cry about
Show some skin, and would be, cash out
How could you let this get to desperate measures now?
pre chorus-
For a first effort this,
Feels kinda last ditch
I guess this just
Got kinda drastic
Trust us you just fell off the bus, baby
I can't let this, I can't let this go
chorus-
Oh oh whoa oh, oh oh whoa oh
When I got you right where I want you
I been pushing for this for so long
Kiss me, just once, for luck
These are desperate measures now
I can't let this, I can't let this go
Have a piece of American dream
Open up, and swallow, on your knees
And say "Thank you"
I'd like some desperate measures, please
[ Lyrics from: link ]
(pre chorus)
(chorus)
Forever, forwards, or better
My poor heart will only surrender
Go forever, forwards, or better
My poor heart will only surrender, now
I can't let this, I can't let this go
(chorus) x2
Porcelain-
You thought by now
You'd have it figured out
You can't erase the way it pulls
When seasons change
It hurts sometimes
To find where you begin
You are perfect porcelain
chorus-
The slow and simple melody
Of tears you cannot keep from me
It's alright if you don't know what you need
[ Lyrics from: link ]
I'm right here when
You need someone to see
It's not speak
Or forever hold your peace
It's alright to take time
And find where you've been
You are perfect porcelain
(chorus)
Oh, when your heart loses,
You won't fall to pieces
You'll let those old diseases lie
Oh, and your heart releases,
You won't fall to pieces
And your breath comes crashing in
Like perfect porcelain
(chorus)
Fallout-
An empty room,
I'm empty too
And everything reminds me of you
So many things
I shouldn't have missed
The more that I push
And the more you resist
It's easy to say it's for the best
When you want more
While you leave me with less
pre chorus-
I know you're fine, but what do I do?
I know you're fine, but what do I do?
Chorus-
I'm awake, and trying
While you're sleeping like a babe
Beside him
I'm on the ledge while you're so
God damn polite and composed
And I know you see me,
And you're making it look so easy
What comes and goes, I'd go without
I know you're fine but what if I
(Fallout), Fallout, (fallout), fallout (fallout)
Through the bottom
(Fallout), Fallout, (fallout), fallout, (fallout)
You're the fallout
Well now there's him,
And now there's me
The secrets you give
And the secrets you keep
And nevertheless
It's never you let
The more that I give
And the less that I get
Don't tell me to fight,
To fight for you
After this long, I shouldn't have to
(pre chorus)
(chorus)
I know you're fine, but what do I do?
I know you're fine, but what do I do?
I know you're fine but what if I
(Fallout), Fallout, (fallout), fallout (fallout)
Through the bottom
(Fallout), Fallout, (fallout), fallout, (fallout)
I know you're fine but what if I
(Fallout)
I'm awake, and trying
While you're sleeping like a babe
Beside him
I'm on the ledge while you're so
God damn polite and composed
(Fallout), Fallout, (fallout), fallout (fallout)
Through the bottom
(Fallout), Fallout, (fallout), fallout, (fallout)
Through the bottom
(Fallout) FALLOUT (fallout)

Stutter-
I know i never make this easy

You say give me something that i can go on
Together, yeah, anywhere but here
pre chorus-
Sing it back
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Hey yeah
Oh oh, oh oh, oh..
chorus-
And i'm begging you
Bring me back to life
I just can't stand leaving you alone at night
It's too late to go
It has taken me forever just to try to know
One more try it's just for the show
Three to get ready
And four to go
Fall back, laugh with me
Don't know why it took me so long to see
Just stutter, stutter, stutter
D-.. Did i stutter stutter stutter
D-.. Did i stutter stutter stutter
D-.. Did i stutter stutter

B team-
You could want this
See if it fits for a bit
And if you don't like it
Then you can go like you have been
And I'll never tell, never tell how I fell for it
I never fell before
pre chorus-
3, 2, 1, you get right up and I'm the one done
You never say yes, not quite no
Say just enough to make me not go
You choose your words,
Careful voice, in the end I'm not the first choice
You say you want someone just like me
chorus-
So then why am I your plan,
Why am I your plan,
Why am I your plan B?
You know, you know you love the way I'm lingering,
You keep me wrapped right round your finger,
But you say, you say, just wait a little longer, and
And in time, I could be the right one
Please, I'm the B team
This could hurt some,
But if we don't never know what it's worth to ya

It breaks me in to stay alive
I know it hurt a lot like you
C'mon I know that you felt it too
It hurts the same and that's ok
I never liked him anyway
I know
It seems so long since I've been gone
I got so used to just hanging on
I feel so wrong
I don't belong
I got so used to just hanging on
I'm used to starving out instead
It's easier than fakign it
Sometimes it hurts but
That's no worsethan all those times
I guess it works
I know they walked away with a piece of me
The more I bruise from laying low
I walk around liek I'm alive again
But I know it's just not the same
Shut up
I'm sorry I broke it all
I don't know why it just won't die
And I'm fading
don't worry no one ever knows
I don't know why it just won't die
It breaks me in to stay alive
I know it hurt a lot like you
C'mon I know that you felt it too
It hurts the same and that's ok

But I know it's just not the same
Shut up
I'm sorry I broke it all
I don't know why it just won't die
And I'm fading
I will softly pull away
In this broken beautiful mess I've made
And in the dead and quiet I will slowly fade
In this masterpiece I made
I'll burn out and slip away
And this just a part I portray
You're beautiful, can I hide in you and stay here?
Making mostly to themselves
Hush now they'll hurt you till your heart melts
They know you're lonely
And they will only break your heart
And this masterpiece will tear you apart
I'll burn out and slip away
And this just a part I portray
You're beautiful,
Can I hide in you and stay here?
First it comes alive, creeping quiet
And this is just a part I portray
You're beautiful, can I hide in you
And stay here all night?
Well, oh I will pull away
I portray
I'll wreck this if I have to
Tell me what good would that do?
I'll wreck this if I have to
Tell me what good would that do?
I'll wreck this if I have to
Tell me what good would that do?
In this broken beautiful mess I've made
And in the dead and quiet I will slowly fade
In this masterpiece I made
I'll burn out and slip away
And this just a part I portray
You're beautiful, can I hide in you and stay here?
Making mostly to themselves
Hush now they'll hurt you till your heart melts

Tell me what good would that do?
I'll wreck this if I have to
Tell me what good would that do?
This is the dying, you are the disease,
And I smile like Ritalin, the razor and me.
This is the falling, you are the underground,
This is the deep end, you are the drowning.
One more hit and you'll get better,
Tin foil, cigarettes, you'll be okay.
This is not an after-school special,
This is primetime, reload, and heroin.
This is the final, you are the failing.
This is the retro, you are the out of style.
This is the grinding, you are the decay.
This is the funeral, you are the casket.
One more hit and you'll get better,
Tin foil, cigarettes, you'll be okay,
This is not an after-school special,
This is primetime, reload, and heroin.
Then heroin.
This is the once was, you are the has-been.
You keep saying I'm in over my head.
I'm in over my head.
I'm in over,
One more hit and you'll get better,
Tin foil, cigarettes, but it's not okay.
This is not an after-school special,
This is primetime, reload, and heroin.
And heroin.
And I smile like Ritalin, the razor and me.
This is the falling, you are the underground,
This is the deep end, you are the drowning.
One more hit and you'll get better,
Tin foil, cigarettes, you'll be okay.
This is not an after-school special,
This is primetime, reload, and heroin.
This is the final, you are the failing.
This is the retro, you are the out of style.
This is the grinding, you are the decay.
This is the funeral, you are the casket.
One more hit and you'll get better,
Tin foil, cigarettes, you'll be okay,
This is not an after-school special,
This is primetime, reload, and heroin.
Then heroin.
This is the once was, you are the has-been.
You keep saying I'm in over my head.
I'm in over my head.
I'm in over,
One more hit and you'll get better,
Tin foil, cigarettes, but it's not okay.
This is not an after-school special,
This is primetime, reload, and heroin.
And heroin.
