[Verse]
Excuse me sir,
I have sinned
I didn’t tell you everything
That I wanted you to know
Here’s the story
Here's how it goes
Yea I said that I really do you want you
What I meant is I really don't need you
I just said what I needed to say to get my way
And so I lied.
[Chorus]
I'll say it again
I'll tell you, I'll tell you, I'll tell you
Everything I said was just a lie to pull you in
I'll say it again
I'll tell you, I'll tell you, I'll tell you
Everything I said was just a lie to pull you
[Verse]
Sorry you couldn’t tell
That I played the game so well
Everything I said,
Was to inch myself into your head
Yea to tell you I never really liked you
From the first time that I ever saw you
I just said what I need to say to get my way
And so Goodbye.
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
In the night, I crept in while you slept,
Here’s my fingerprints,
On your broken heart
See your footprints at my door,
Leave your number I won’t call
You back
See,
I’m sorry (I'm sorry),
Yea I'm not sorry,
Don’t be surprised
Oh, don't you cry.
[Chorus]

[Verse]
Tripping over Memories
You left inside my head
Reciting conversations
That we've already had
And this feeling that I get
Is contemplating
With regret
Didn’t mean to say those things
Cause you mean everything
[Chorus]
You make it hard for me to breathe
When you're not standing here by me
When you're not standing here by me
You make it hard for me to breathe
When you're not standing here by me
When you're not standing here by me
[Verse]
Nothing that time can not erase
Except your face
Cannot believe that you're gone
But the feelings still remains
I miss your smile, I miss your skin
I miss your arms that draw me in
I didn’t mean to say those things
Cause you mean everything
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
(You make it hard for me to breathe,
When you’re not standing here by me,
When you’re not standing here by me,
You make it hard for me to breathe,
When you're not standing here by me
When you’re not standing here by me.)
[Chorus]
[Outro]
You’re just a memory
A memory, a memory (x4)

[Verse]
Stares they give you
Digging voices in your head
The trail of scars from the tears
That you shed
They say that you're nothing
Insist that you're worthless
But who are they to say
When they don’t even know your name
[Pre-chorus]
You're a constant failure
Giving up and giving up in
Live your life for no one
It’s your world that you're living in
[Chorus]
Pick yourself back up
When you're falling down
When you're falling to the ground
Pick yourself back up
When you're falling down
When you're falling to the ground
[Verse]
Hallways filled with murmurs
Grey walls turning black
Its easier letting go
And never looking back
The mirror pokes at you
Mocking everything you do
Sometimes you fall you crawl,
You get back up and dust your self off
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
To all your failures,
To all your rejects,
To all, to all don't give up
And when it’s said and done, will you be able to say
I'm happy of what I've become?
This is who I am (x6)
[Chorus]

[Verse]
My Bleeding heart was broken
Because of the pain stricken despair,
The consequences of love
Is that love is rarely there
You screw with my mind, my body, my soul and my heart
And I know something inside has already departed
All you left intact was these tears that I shed
And this broken heart that only pumps out lead
You forced me to love you
You tried all you could
But man I see how it is
Because you didn’t love me like you should
But when you feel like you want but can’t take what you got
I'm telling you boy
One day you're going to miss me a lot
Don’t you wish you could see?
All this pain you brought to me
All this time I spent with you
I've could have been with someone new.
[Chorus]
And all the things and all the shit
That you've done
All I can say is come get me
When all the pain and all the misery come
All I can say is, Come get me
[Verse]
You're dodging bullets as if no one can see
You’re already shot
Your blood appears on the floor and you act like its not
Just rest in your grave
Cause you already fallen in
If loving you was right, I guess it’s a sin
Because I can't believe how much pain
And suffering I'm in
The lies the other wives
And you just hiding within
With a slick walk and talk and positive objective
You always say, 'girl you know I love you lets try this again'
Please banging on my door you won’t be coming in
I got a shotgun my guard dog and yea some of my kin
You really hurt me man, how can you do this to me?
Feels like you just took a dagger and shoved it in my spleen
My body’s trembling my eyes turning red
And all I want to do right now is scream out led.
You led me to believe you boy that you'll always stay true
But some how you've turned around and said I hated you
[Chorus]

[Verse]
This is the last sunset I will see with you
Greatest gift I Ever knew, by far
Now it’s the time to realize,
What we have left
Is just your empty promises
They're in a box in the ground
And they're not coming out
[Chorus]
Time could always heal you and,
I was always there
For you, But you gave it all away
[Verse]
Flash back, its too cold, it’s too late
To call you now, because you wont answer.
I pass by your old place, I see your face
Imprinted in the memories
Remember me; I'm not the one I used to be.
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
You felt ignored,
But you could never feel this empty
There’s so much more,
But it’s something that you'll never see
And you’ll miss life, and you'll miss tears
You'll miss the rise, you'll miss friends,
You’ll miss growing through the years,
You’ll miss beginnings
And you'll miss ends.
[Chorus]

[Verse]
I like the way you're touching me
We’re gonna tear this place down to the beat
Two shots always leads to more
We're gonna rock this place like never before
[Pre-chorus]
I like what you are doing
Don't stop just keep on moving
I'll show you how to do it
You're gonna make me lose it
[Chorus]
You want to get with me
You better take what you want
Well tonight ain't free
You better take what you want
You want, you want
You better take what you want
You want, you want
[Verse]
Drink up and slam it down
Buy us another round
I'll show you how its gonna go down
Back to the dance floor
Come close a little more
I'll show you what you're waiting for
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Tick tock, baby don't you stop
I'll drop it down low
And we'll keep on moving
Moving to this beat
You got me going so crazy
Your body is so mesmerizing
Your eyes just so hypnotizing
I got what you want
If you got what I need
[Chorus]

[Verse]
You got what I want and what I need
I don't want you to know
I'll give it up, I have urges to feed
How far I will go
[Pre-chorus]
I'll just be using you, I know
But by the time it’s said and done
[Chorus]
Let me be the one
You hold
Let me be the one
You need
Let me be the one
You cry for late at night in time
Let me be the one
[Verse]
Into my room, all over the bed
I should have left you alone
Onto the floor, into my head
I should have left you at home
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]

[Verse]
Try to start it up
Falling to my knees
Push me against the wall
Denying me to breathe
Left me stranding in
Told me to paddle out
Left me drowning
With some fear and doubt
Another situation
The same as the first
Why couldn’t I see this coming?
In the old verse
I just took you back
When I just threw you out
Talking all that smack
I know what shit's about
[Chorus]
Tired of your smiles laced up with lies
You think you're beautiful
Don’t look at me when I pass you by
You think you're beautiful
Beautiful
[Verse]
Now that I was hurt
Some how I'm the oddity
You got me back once
But never step to me
I know that love hurts
Beat me to the game
Got me screaming out
That things will never change
Disregard the anthem
Not addicted to your charms
When I said it was over
I meant, yeah be gone
Look at what you've done
The pain you brought to me
With your stupid smile
Well fuck your mockery
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
What’s the point of telling someone you care?
All they're going to do is use you
And throw it in your face
I'm stupid,
No you're the stupid one
I know you're texting,
I know you're sexting
I know you're telling lies,
I know you're not with the guys
So why don’t you take this middle finger
And shove it where you love it...
Yeah, What, that’s what she said...
What!
[Chorus]

It 6 a.m,
I'm in my bed
Alarm clock set
It keeps ringing every morning
Echoes in my head
Life’s a bore
My job just sucks
My boss is such a jerk
I'm doing all the work
He does the front desk Clerk
[Coda]
You want your life back?
Well come and grab it
Well come and grab it
Well come and grab it
You want your life back?
Well come and grab it
Well come and grab it
Well come and grab it
[Verse]
Its 5pm
Sitting at my desk
No overtime
The four walls caving in,
Coming in from all sides
I wasted my whole day here
My boss just went home
The desk clerk left with him
Now I'm all alone.....
[Chorus]
You want your life back?
Well come and grab it
Well come and grab it
Well come and grab it
You want your life back?
Well come and grab it
Well come and grab it
Well come and grab it
And you have what it takes to get the hell up out of here
You want your green light?
Well here's your green light
Well here's your green light
[Bridge]
And I feel fine, well maybe I'm okay
Till we die, we'll try, we'll try, and we’ll try
And I feel fine, well maybe I'm okay
Till we die, we'll try...
[Chorus]

[Verse]
Keep your mouth shut
You'll give yourself away
You've been so wrong
Our words are our mistake
[Pre-chorus]
Cause you keep, keeping my heart in check
Always ache, aching it never rest
Just shake, shaking all in my chest
Always make, making me such a mess
[Chorus]
Hey kid, look what you did
You're really gonna regret this
Its no apology
Eat your words
Hey kid, look what you did
You made a mess
Now you’re stuck with it,
Its no apology
Eat your words
[Verse]
Blame me and shame me
Guilt me to the bone
Leave me lying and crying
On this guilty throne
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Are you blinded? Can't you see, why we fell apart
It’s the other side, the side that I despise
Changes and changes
Ripping through these pages and pages
[Chorus]
