Pretty girls in conversation
Episodes, abominations
I believe my heart belongs to one
Comatose from information
Overload, I lost my patience
Overdose, wish I knew just what I want
Go
Breaking my heart from the end to the start
I don’t know
How to protect it and I want to stay but I
Go
Breaking my heart from the end to the start
I don’t know
How to protect it and I want to say it cause
You say you love me but you don’t know my name
Oh don't say you love me just cause I feel that way
You and I could go the distance
Multiply, what a nice existence
Nevermind, I daydream to pass the time
And I could have sworn I saw it in your eyes
Sweet mirage but I was blind
How could I be so blind
Go
Breaking my heart from the end to the start
I don’t know
How to protect it and I want to stay but I
Go
Breaking my heart from the end to the start
I don’t know
How to protect it and I want to say it cause
You say you love me but you don’t know my name
Oh don't say you love me just cause I feel that way

Sweet dreams
Bad as it seems
I can ship my mind to a new location
Heart break
Made a mistake
We can fix this good as new
She speaks
It makes me weak
Every word drips out no explanation
Lips shake
She made a mistake
Now I don't know what to do
Loving you was easy
Till you got yourself thinking out loud
Now you got me with my head in the clouds
You got me with my head in the clouds
With my head in the clouds
Raindrops
And mountain tops
Couldn’t stop us sinking in bad decisions
God sent
He came and went
Now we’re out here on our own
Your skin
The perfect sin
For a star-crossed lover with double vision Lips shake
She made a mistake
But she won’t leave me alone
Loving you was easy
Till you got yourself thinking out loud
Now you got me with my head in the clouds
You got me with my head in the clouds
With my head in the clouds

Tightrope

I stand so far
From the things I said I wanted
I can only see the stars
From the rooftop to the cars
They look a million miles away
Still can't decide
If I fall is it a favor?
Let the wind dry out my eyes
I can walk or I can fly
Like I'm a million miles high
She knows her favorite ice creams
She takes my advice
Skips through the fight scenes
But I'm still on the short leash
I hate when she tugs
And shrugs at my "no please"
I wish that I could say it loud
But I could never be so proud
The rain won't ever leave this cloud
I cave in on the weekends
I'm still half asleep
From week out, and week in
At least I'm never lonely
A stone for my shoulder
Cold matrimony
I wish that could read her mind
The tension in the storyline
I won't make the walk this blind
My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin' never lets me down
I'm shaking the rainstorm
Pray feet don't you fail me now
My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin never lets me down
Her lovin never lets me down
It started under moonshine
Drink 'till we head to bed
Never too shy
But then I met the dark shade
Well nice to meet you
You've come a long way
I'm standing till the wind dies out
So I could let my arms back down
And run till I can't be found
My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin' never lets me down
I'm shaking the rainstorm
Pray feet don't you fail me now
My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin' never lets me down
Her lovin' never lets me down
And in my fantasy
She is everything I need
But now I'm begging for solid ground
My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin' never lets me down
My mind is on a tightrope
Her lovin' never lets me down
Her lovin' never lets me down

James Bond

I just want you to notice how I really feel
Shaken up martinis never covered up my pain through the years
And you say "let me take you back to Le Chateau Marmont"
You can have my body
Looks like you could use a shot in the arm
Cause she's a fine little lover
My spy, undercovers
Somebody tell me what I’m missing
She sees the gloves on the table
Emotions unstable
She thinks I’m a man on a mission
But I've done no crime
Yeah I just sing songs
She says that's just fine
Love me like James Bond
Shackled, wasted
I could not believe my eyes
It could be my fantasy
If only she would loosen the ties
And she plays cassette
Thin red tape and silhouette
Step inside, it's getting late
And I know what she needs
A thick white skull for the magazine
And a picture of my blood shot face
Cause she's a fine little lover
My spy, undercovers
Somebody tell me what I’m missing.
She sees the gloves on the table
Emotions unstable,
She thinks I’m a man on a mission
But I've done no crime
Yeah I just sing songs
She says that's just fine
Love me like James Bond
And I feel just fine
Cause she seems so high
Yeah I just sing songs
She says that's your crime

Seen This All Before

I could write you a letter
But you probably wouldn't read it anyway
So I put my pen down and pretend like I have nothing to say
And I could probably get better
But I know it'll take a long time away from you
From you
Because you ruined it
You ruined it
But you know I've seen this all before
(It's nothing new it's nothing new it's nothing new, oh no)
But you know I've seen this all before
(And there's a million other girls just like you, oh yeah)
But you know I've seen this all before
And we could fight 'till forever
And we still wouldn't know who started the war
Honestly I just don't care
Don't care anymore
And we could talk about something else
But there's nothing else, nothing else, nothing else, nothing else, nothing else
Nothing else that's worth talking about with you
But you know I've seen this all before
(It's nothing new it's nothing new it's nothing new, oh no)
You know I've seen this all before
(I hate to get repetitive but I know what I'm talking about when I see)
You know I've seen this all before
(Oh yeah, alright, ok)
Cause I'm the son of God
But I'm not Jesus
Maybe you should all bow down
I'm the son of god
But I'm not Jesus
Maybe you should all bow down
I'm the son of God
But I'm not Jesus
Maybe you should all bow down
I'm the son of God
You don't believe this
But maybe you should all bow down
You should all bow down
You know I've seen this all before
I've seen it a million times in my head, over and over again
You know I've seen this all before
I claim to see things, I claim to see the past and I see the past
Oh yeah, oh yeah, alright

Castles

I've been bleeding
Oversleeping
Running through the story line for line
City skies
Through squinted eyes
Look just like torches on the 405
But your braids fell to the ground
Begging me to climb up
Watch your shadow dancing on the stone
Send the joker to the hall
Cause I can't seem to find ya
But when I close my eyes
I see the castles in my head
Believe the fairy tales that you told instead
I see the castles in my head
No one can hurt me in a suit made of lead, made of lead
Count the stairs and
Split the hairs
I plan for my escape until I can't speak
I can't take the silence
Or fakes the smiles
Everybody looks back the same
It's the wildest thing
Then your braids fell to the ground
Begging me to climb up
Watch your shadow dancing on the stone
Send the joker to the hall
Cause I can't seem to find ya
But when I close my eyes
I see the castles in my head
Believe the fairy tales that you told instead
I see the castles in my head
No one can hurt me in a suit made of lead, made of lead
Made of lead
Made of lead
Made of lead
Made of lead
Made of lead
Made of lead
