BLUE


Drink,

I am your water

please do

as I taught you


it’s simple, it’s simple but it’s true

my sad soul’s your favourite shade of blue


now sink,

I am your water

wade into my arms

in you wanna


it’s simple, it’s simple but it’s true

my sad soul’s your favourite shade of blue

my sad soul’s your favourite shade of blue

my sad soul’s your favourite shade of blue


Sex & Sadness


everything I write is

about sex & sadness

you prove to encourage

these thoughts of mine

every lyric lately

is reminiscent vaguely

of words you sighed into my skin

come evening time


lavender taste,

stain-glass love laced

in fragile lies

kiss me again

and I will pretend

I don’t see it in your eyes


wish I could forget how

your mellow speaking voice sounds

gentle like a sunset

whispering into my ear

now every song I sing is

about sex & sadness

baby, you’re the baddest

and I am your doll


After Hours


take off

my black lace with your teeth

tonight,

my baby’s getting everything

because

I fall

in lust

and he don’t know

the proper time to leave

baby wants to go out

after hours I’m sure

if you know me by now,

you know nothing at all

baby wants to go out

after hours, I’m sure

street lights flickering now

hotel room, close the door

(after hours)

your skin

bathed in neon lights

I don’t

ever want you out of my sight

because

I fall

in lust

and he don’t know

the proper time to leave

baby wants to go out

after hours, I’m sure

if you know me by now

you know nothing at all

baby wants to go out

after hours, I’m sure

street lights flickering now,

hotel room close the door (x2)

after hours

oh, after hours

baby wants to go out


Space


I still love you when I’m sad

I still love you when I’m angry

when its 3AM and I’m lonely,

wish you were playing in my hair

I still need you when I’m weak

though I try to never be weak

and I crave you always

but I’ll give you your space

I crave you always

but I’ll give you your

and I crave you always

but I’ll give you your space

I promise to paint you pictures

with my fingertips

in the fog on car windows

that we make when we kiss

and I crave you always

but I’ll give you your space

and I crave you always

but I’ll give you your

and I need you always

but I’ll give you your space

and I crave you always

but I’ll give you your

and I crave you always

but I’ll give you your space

and I crave you always

and I crave you always


Hush


hush now, handsome

let’s find some privacy

they won’t notice

if we go quietly

if I lead

would you be

down to occupy and empty bedroom

no words, just skin

man, you got me on my worst behavior

don’t normally act like this

we both got class

but the empty glass is

making our decisions

you got me on my worst behavior

the sheets feel smooth

and the way you move is

unforgettable

hush, now, handsome

let keep it physicalk

words like love are all inadmissable

strictly, hold me

close but not enough to call me baby

no words, just skin

man, you got me on my worst behavior

don’t normally act like this

we both got class but the empty glass is

swaying this decision

you got me on my worst behavior

don’t normally act like this

the sheets feel smooth and the way you move is

unforgettable

unforgettable

don’t normally act like this

don’t normally act like this

got me on my worst behavior

got me on my worst behavior

got me on my worst behavior


Blue Jean Baby


to the best of my knowledge

I’m being honest

you’re a real sharp dude with you hair slicked back

blue jean baby,

drive me crazy,

I like the way you look when you’re dressed in black

boy, you a stunner

got it from your mother

you walk around here like you own the game

ladies go crazy

blue jean baby,

by the end of the night you’ll know my name

I’m a good girl on the outside

on the inside you don’t even know a thing

I’m a good girl on the outside,

on the inside you don’t know

and I know that I don’t even know ya

I don’t know ya

doesn’t matter that you don’t even know me

you don’t know me (blue jean baby)

and I know that I don’t even know ya

I don’t know ya

doesn’t matter that you don’t even know me

you don’t know me (blue jean baby)

you’re a go-getter, go get with her

making eyes from across the room

take my lighter

style’s on fire

fatal attraction, I am doomed

sugar, you a stunner

got it from your mother

you walk around here like you own the game

ladies go crazy,

blue jean baby

by the end of the night you’ll know my name

I’m a good girl on the outside

on the inside you don’t even know a thing

I’m a good girl on the outside,

on the inside you don’t know

and I know that I don’t even know ya

I don’t know ya

doesn’t matter that you don’t even know me

you don’t know me (blue jean baby)

and I know that I don’t even know ya

I don’t know ya

doesn’t matter that you don’t even know me

you don’t know me (blue jean baby)

Making it up


take it

I take it with my eyes shut baby

breaking

boy you’ve had a dark mind lately

do you really wanna play this game?

turning every word I say

now you’re gonna call me crazy

I’m not making it up

I’m not making it up

I’m not making it up, up, up, up

I’m not making it up

I’m not making it up

I’m not making up, up, up, up

lover,

I’m not your enemy I’m still your darling

I wonder

why you’ve been making something out for nothing?

do you really wanna pass the blame?

turning every word I say

now you’re gonna call me crazy

I’m not making it up

I’m not making it up

I’m not making it up, up, up, up

I’m not making it up

I’m not making it up

I’m not making up, up, up, up

now you’re gonna call me crazy

now you’re gonna call me crazy

I’m not making it up

I’m not making it up, up, up, up

(I’m left tryna put it back together again)

I’m not making it up

(you break)

I’m not making it up

(everything)

I’m not making up, up, up, up

(I’m left tryna put it back together again)


Lullaby


don’t, don’t say goodnight

but sing, a lullaby

so we can go to sleep forever

and, in our vulnerable state,

we’ll think that the whole world’s weight

is gone

gone away forever

I don’t feel lonely like I usually do

there’s no need for counting sheep

I don’t feel lonely like I usually do

when you lull me gently to sleep

oh, just close your eyes

and we’ll dream the rest of our lives away

if not today, forever

and if you are worried

lay your troubles down, be still

stay if you will, forever

I don’t feel lonely like I usually do

there’s no need for counting sheep

I don’t feel lonely like I usually do

when you lull me gently to sleep

I don’t feel lonely like I usually do

there’s no need for counting sheep

I don’t feel lonely like I usually do

when you lull me gently

won’t you lull me gently

won’t you lull me gently to sleep


mystery Novels


you’re a silent film

that I’ve been trying to decode

but I can’t read your lips

the script is tearing at the fold

you’re a rainy day

in the middle of july

glad that you are here

but I never was quite sure why

I think all the authors write their mystery novels about you

I think all the authors write their mystery novels about you

you are abstract art

hung on a wall without a frame

try to figure what it means

but the painter never gave you a name

you’re a diamond I found inside a thrift store

and I can’t help but wonder

who owned you before

I think all the authors write their mystery novels about you

I think all the authors write their mystery novels about you

I think all the authors write their mystery novels about you

I think all the authors write their mystery novels about you

I think all the authors write their mystery novels about you

I think all the authors write their mystery novels

mystery novels, about

Unrequited


it don’t hurt ‘till your bleeding

and by then its too late

now I know how the men before you felt

when I let them in for a short while,

then made ‘em go away

why can’t I stop overthinking?

thought I’d be fine all alone

but I miss the smell of your cologne

and how your bloodshot eyes undressed me

every time that I came home

you don’t reply the way you used to

I wonder if it’s something I said

sorry if I acted cold,

that’s just the way things are in my head

life would be so easy

if people said how they felt

but instead we wind up in guessing games

injecting words we want to hear

in other people’s mouths

you don’t reply the way you used to

I wonder if it’s something I said

sorry if I acted cold,

that’s just the way things are in my head

you don’t reply the way you used to

I wonder if it’s something I said

sorry if I acted cold, that’s

just the way things

just the way things

just the way things are in my head
