New Year

It’s a new year
And I’m still here
It’s a new day
I’ll be ok
Don’t tell me to wait
It’s a new year
Feel no fear
It’s a new time
Now where’s mine
Don’t tell me to wait
It’s a new year
My mind feels clear
It’s time to say
Never again
Don’t tell me to wait
Cause I want it now
And I need it now
And I’ll get it somehow
Cause I need to feel ok now

Fall Asleep

If I ever fall asleep
Now would you wake me from the dream
That’s kept my crying now for weeks
If I ever fall asleep
Now would you wake me from the dream
That’s kept me shaking now for weeks
Yeah Yeah Yeah
If I ever fall asleep (I want to lay down with you)
Now would you wake me from the dream
That’s kept me aching now for weeks
If I ever fall asleep (I want to lay down with you)
Now would you wake me from the dream
That’s kept me way down on my knees
Yeah Yeah Yeah
I’m tired. Come wake me up (I want to lay down with you)

Used To Be Friends
02:09
|

Remember when we used to be friends
Oh so long ago
Now you only call me to tell me that you hate me
Remember when we used to be friends
Remember when we stayed up all night
Talking ‘bout the ones we liked
No we’re both so lonely, you said you’d never hate me
Remember when we stayed up all night
I’d like to be friends with you but I only feel hatred
Remember when we cut off our hair
Didn’t care if anyone stared
Can’t go back to those days, we’ll never be the same again
Remember when we cut off our hair
Remember when we walked down that road
Found a path of our own
Difference is only pleasing when you don’t know what you’re missing
Remember when we walked down that road
I’d like to be friends with you but I only feel hatred
Remember when we used to be friends
Remember me

Eyes

I want him
I want him now
I need him
I seek him
I feel him
I’ll find him there
As time falls through the ticking clock
To fast forward then it stops
As time slips through the ticking clock
I see your eyes
Oh my these glassy, glassy eyes
They cover my sight
They blind me so that I cannot see
These glassy, glassy eyes they cover me
Walk in through the door
Here’s all you’re waiting for
Lift back the sheets
Now where is he?
Where is he?
Where is he?

Way Out
02:09
|
|||
Crackled sun and blistered knee
Waiting for the summer scene
Take my hand and come with me
Meet the kids out on the street
I’m just looking for a way out
But I can’t get over it
Say I’m the nicest girl you know
You don’t know how far I’d go
Drown my sorrows in herbal tea
Watch the static on TV
I’m just waiting till I break out
But I can’t get over me
I’m just waiting for the break down
It’s riding over me

Tell A Lie
02:07
|
|||
If I’m too scared to tell a lie
Cannot look you in the eye
I’m too scared to tell a lie
If I’m too scared to tell the truth
Now what do I mean to you
When I’m too scared to tell the truth
You tell me
What you see
If I try to tell a lie
But you see it in my eyes
That I can’t form a lie
If I think about what is true
And what I cannot do
My words won’t reach the room
You tell me
What you see
If I get caught out in a lie
Have to face my own demise
Oh i didn’t wanna lie
If i dare misspeak the truth
What am i gonna do
Let my words divide the room
You tell me
What you see
I can’t face
What I did

All of my friends are white
Don’t think it really matters anyway
All of my friends are rich
Don’t think it really matters anyway
But you, you’re different
And you, you’re special
All of my friends tell lies
Don’t think it really matters anyway
All of my friends take drugs
Don’t think it really matters anyway
But you, you’re different
And you, you’re special
All of my friends are white
Don’t think it really matters anyway
But you, you’re different
And you, you’re special

It's You
02:21
|

Ready for bed and I don't sleep
I'm tired and bored and I don't sleep
Ready for bed and I don't sleep
I'm bored of it, you never please me
It's you, not me
Ready for bed and I don't sleep
I'm tired and bored and I don't sleep
Ready for bed and I don't sleep
I'm bored of this, you never please me
It's you, not me
Ready for bed and I don't sleep
I'm tired and bored and I don't sleep
Ready for bed and I don't sleep
I'm bored of you, you never please me
It's you, not me

How Could You Love Me
03:38
|
|||
How, how, how could you love me
When, you don’t know what you want
Listen baby, let’s break it down here
I want our love to last for years and years
But the things you do bring tears to my eyes
After I cry, I sit down and I say
How, how, how could you love me
When, you don’t know what you want
He says that he loves me but I don’t know how
He puts me through hour after hour after hour
He thinks I’m a joke, well he can go choke
‘Cause there’s no way that he can truly love me
How, how, how could you love me
When, you don’t know what you want

Cut Your Hair
04:03
|

I cut your hair
Every whisper of every hair
Dust the strands from your shoulders
Hold you up make you stand taller
I cut your hair
Little here and little there
Put your trust in my hands we’ll
Make you look how you should stand now
You think that I’m not here
Though I’ve been here for years
Watching you silently
Loving you faithfully
And I prepare
For a world where you’re not there
Collect the strands that fell right from you
Hold them tight wish i could breathe you
You think that I’m not here
Though I’ve been here for years
Watching you silently
Loving you faithfully
Darling please stay close here
Darling please make it clear
That you won’t go changing
That you’ll love me till the end
