Ladies and gentlemen can I,
Say this story seems alive away from you
We'll for love on hotel floors
And write a history for teens with dreamer's truths

Then he looks her in the eye
She considers hiding spades and trumps so bland
Such a crush of subtle ties
And disclaimers wish for wings, in idle hands
And he said baby jump

Oh oh oh from the hospital
We're honorary members of the red carpet academy (say)
Oh oh oh from the hospital
We're honorary members of the red carpet academy

So wrap your lips around these lies
(Just to fall in love girl, love girl, tonight)
Into my arms, into the sea
(Just to fall in love girl, love girl, tonight)

Let's kiss and tell an awful truth
Definition of a tongue packed full of slick
And this relationship will sink
In this hostile plague of hospital soundtacks

Oh oh oh from the hospital
We're honorary members of the red carpet academy (say)
Oh oh oh from the hospital we're honorary members of the red carpet academy

So wrap your lips around these lies
(Just to fall in love girl, love girl, tonight)
Into my arms, into the sea
(Just to fall in love girl, love girl, tonight)
Ohh, we're playing at a home team quarter breaker
We're swinging, but the home team's swimming alone
(Just to fall in love girl, love girl, tonight)

Then she said,
All this intimacy,
Well, you stitch my throat here like a shotgun,
So, put your hands up hun, start up the machine
Can I ask you one more question?

She said,
All this into the sea,
Well, you stitch my throat here like a shotgun,
So, put your hands up hun, start up the machine
Can I ask you one more question?
Say oh!

Ole!

So wrap your lips around these lies
(Just to fall in love girl, love girl, tonight)
Into my arms, into the sea
(Just to fall in love girl, love girl, tonight)
Woah woah oh, we're playing at a home team quarter breaker
(Just to fall in love girl, love girl, tonight)
We're swinging, but the home team's swimming alone
(Just to fall in love girl, love girl, tonight)
So don't you swim alone tonight

Oh Oh Oh Oh from the hospital
We're honorary members of the red carpet academy (and)
Oh Oh Oh Oh from the hospital
We're honorary members of the red carpet academy.

This incentive represents this dimly lit room just a minute in,
My heart beat beat climbs in sync with captivate me as you shed your skin,

(x2)
Princess,
Why you so contagious?
Every single step,
Breaks every single breath,

Tell me anything and everything will be ok,

It's exclusively elusive,
Loosely wrapping scars,
(Tell me anything and everything will be ok,
Tell me anything and everything will be ok,)
Eighteen cliches clash where we lay,
Overboard, You took my breath away,

Tell me anything and everything will be ok,
Tell me anything and everything will be ok,

Hey,
Hey,
Hey,

(x2)
Princess,
Why you so contagious?
Every single step,
Breaks every single breath,

Tell me anything and everything will be ok,

Princess,
Why you so contagious?
Every single step,
And every single breath,

Princess,
Why you so contagious?
Every single,

Babada, Babada,
Ohhhh,

(x2)
Princess,
Why you so contagious?
Every single step,
Breaks every single breath,

(Tell me anything and everything will be ok,)

(x2)
Princess,
(And everything will be ok,)
Why you so contagious?
Every thing you say,
And everything will be ok.

Yeah, ooh, ooh,
ooh, ooh,

Oh, Can I catch your eye tonight?
(So beside myself tonight, So beside myself tonight)
We could live forever,
One line at a time,
So lets sway,

Step one is your heart,
Rip it up for another,
(SO beside myself tonight, So beside myself tonight)
Tie it to sincerity,
Yeah, this is a soundtrack for lovers,

So baby come on,
Get down,
Why now,
So right,
And watch,
Me drown,
The moment,
Right,

Your finger is on the trigger so say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so say good,
A shimmy shimmy go go
We're lovers with such precision,
So say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so say good,
A shimmy shimmy go go,

No social suicide this time,
(So beside myself tonight, So beside myself tonight)
When I repeat confessions with catastrophe in mind,
And f*** its sublime,

Step one is your heart,
Rip it up for another,
(So beside myself tonight, So beside myself tonight)
Tie it to sincerity,
Yeah, this is a soundtrack for lovers,

So baby come on,
Get down,
Why now,
So right,
And watch,
Me drown,
The moment,
Right,

Your finger is on the trigger so say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so say good,
A shimmy shimmy go go
We're lovers with such precision,
So say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so say goodbye tonight,

Yeah!

Oh, Get down,
Why now,
So right,
And watch,
Me drown,
The moment,

A shimmy shimmy go go
We're lovers with such precision,
So say goodbye,
Goodbye,
Your finger is on the trigger so,
SHIMMY SHIMMY GO GO!

Reach for the stars, kid
I've been wondering
Heaven's not too far, kid
We've been tumbling
Down, down, baby, it's just so audio.
But I'm a gentleman, I'm such a gentleman.
We keep in time, kid
You're so into it
But if you were mine, kid
We'd be intimate
Oh, these razors ain't your roses
But I'm a gentleman
I'm such a gentleman

Sway sway baby, it's just so audio
Kill your boyfriend, we could be together
Oh, sway sway baby tonight
Maybe tonight you'll write back to my letters home
Oh, we'll never let go
Oh, we'll never let go
Oh, we'll never let

We're torn apart, kid
Tearing to the beat
Lovers to the bone, kid
You said no no no
No, these razors ain't your roses
But I'm a gentleman (I'm such a gentleman)

Sway sway baby, it's just so audio
Kill your boyfriend, we could be together
Oh, sway sway baby tonight
Maybe tonight you'll write back to my letters
Sway sway baby, it's just so audio
Kill your boyfriend, I'm such a gentleman
Sway sway baby tonight
Maybe tonight you'll write back to my letters home

Cause I insist this secret liquid shared between us just to skip this secret through our throat
(Oh oh)
Secrets down our throat
(Whoa oh)
Yeah, I insist this secret liquid shared between us just to skip this secret down our throat
(Oh oh)
Secrets down,
well I'll never let you go
(I'm such a gentleman, I'm such a gentleman)
And I'll never let you go
(I'm such a gentleman)

Sway baby, sway baby
Oh, we'll love like hell

Sway sway baby, it's just so audio
Kill your boyfriend, we could be together
Oh, sway sway baby tonight,
Maybe tonight you'll write back to my letter
Sway sway baby, it's just so audio
Kill your boyfriend
(We could be together)
Oh, sway sway baby tonight,
Maybe tonight you'll write back to my letters home
Oh, we'll never let go,
Oh, we'll never let go,
Oh, we'll never let go,
Oh, we'll never let go,
Oh, we'll never let go,
We'll never let go

. . .


In this place we lie
Cutting slightly in vain
Hoping and praying you'll remember my name
If only tonight
And only tonight
You'll write back here I swear I'm done

Take your advice cos its easy to see
This so called romance never wanted me
If only tonight
And maybe tongiht
You write back here, I swear I'll

Cut, till crimson falls
Over the bedroom walls

234

Between you and I it's the 2-step I crave
Morbidly swaying to a dying refrain
If only tonight, and maybe tonight
You write back here
(I'm so sincere)

So will you lay me down tonight
And we'll be better off today
And I would die if you never got to know
But would it do more harm this way?

. . .


Baby, everything you say, say
Shoots me through the chest
Yeah, everytime everytime
Maybe, we can only pray, pray
I want to digress
Yeah everytime

And I'm gone to
Pretending this way out, to
Here we go again
My dearest to my love
We write these letters, pump the stereo

(Here we go again)
(Go, go, go again)
(Here we go again)
(Go, go, go again)

[Chorus:]
Can you turn off the lights and radio
(and up the stereo)
Can you turn off the lights and radio
(and up the stereo)
(I just don't care)
Hope you drop dead gorgeous
(I just don't care)
Hope you drop dead, anyway.
(Anyway)

Baby, everything you do, do
Dries my lonely lips
Yeah, everytime everytime
Could you
Collide with my lies, lies
Crashing with my stitch
Yeah everytime

And I'm gone to
Pretending this way out, to
Here we go again
My dearest to my love
We write these letters, pump the stereo

(Here we go again)
(Go, go, go again)
(Here we go again)
(Go, go, go again)

[Chorus:]
Can you turn off the lights and radio
(and up the stereo)
Can you turn off the lights and radio
(and up the stereo)
(I just don't care)
Hope you drop dead gorgeous
(I just don't care)
Hope you watch me hit that..
HIGH (woo)

You know it's all because of you

(Here we go again)
(Go, go, go again)
(Here we go again)
(Go, go, go again)
When he goes away..
Away!

(I just don't care)
Hope you drop dead gorgeous
(I just don't care)
Hope you drop dead gorgeous
(I just don't care)
Hope you drop dead gorgeous

(I just don't care)
Hope you die to hear me say
(I just don't care)
Hope you die to hear me say
(I just don't care)
Hope you die to hear me say
(I just don't care)
Hope you die to hear me say

(I just don't care)
Hope you drop dead gorgeous.

I'm lookin for the one it seemed like such an easy plan
I found out you're far from but I still wanna be your man
(If I can)
Would you think I'd have a chance
From the start
Every time you take my hand
You take my heart

And I think I'm dying because you said:

"Take my breath away"

I'll lay you down tonight
Steal my heart away once more
This pose will beat out "fire"
One kiss before angels fall

And now I've fallen too far, one kiss before angels fall

I knew this had to be cos I know that you want me for me
You swear I've got rad hair,
but nothing can compare
To the way I feel

Would you think I'd have a chance
From the start
Everytime you take my hand
You take my heart

And I think I'm dying because you said
"Take my breath away"

I'll lay you down tonight
Steal my heart away once more
This pose will be on fire
One kiss before angles fall

I'll lay you down tonight
Steal my heart away once more
This pose will be on fire
One kiss before angles fall
And now I've fallen to far, one kiss before angles fall down

I'll lay you down tonight
Steal my heart away once more
This pose will be one fire
One kiss before angles fall

I'll lay you down tonight
Steal my heart away once more
This pose will be on fire
One kiss before angles fall

I'll lay you down tonight
I'll lay you down tonight
I'll lay you down tonight yeah

( Andy )
It's a late night,
and he comes home,
he thinks of her,
she's all alone
watching tv by an open window,
he wonders if she knows,
he thinks only he knows,
but the days are passing,
and he thinks she'll forget
so we keep it all here,
in the Back of your Head

shadows on the wall who mock me,
make a false sense of security,
I think a deep thought and I try to compare,
My lonely heart to yours,
so you know that I'm there
But the days are passing
and the fire is dead,
so we keep it all here in the back of your head.

( Shaun )
Are you out there?
Are you anywhere?
Just a goodbye just like in my nightmare,
Are you lost without me?
Are you better off dead?
You should keep it all here in the Back of My Head.

( Andy )
I remember that we had no structure,
a lonely park that night I wish I fucked her
looked in your eyes can't remember whether or not
that I wish this night would last forever
now the story is ending
and things are better not said
so we keep it all here in the back of your head

( Shaun )
Are you out there?
Are you anywhere?
Just a goodbye just like in my nightmare,
Are you lost without me?
Are you better off dead?
You should keep it all here in the Back of My Head.

Are you out there?
Are you anywhere?
Just a goodbye just like in my nightmare,
Are you lost without me?
Are you better off dead?
You should keep it all here in the Back of My Head.

Are you out there?
Are you anywhere?
Just a goodbye just like in my nightmare,
Are you lost without me?
Are you better off dead?
You should keep it all here in the Back of My Head.

Goodbye goodbye goodbye goodbye goodb-
Goodbye goodbye goodbye goodbye goodb-

he thinks of her, her, her, her, her, her, her, her

Its a late night and he comes home,
he thinks of her, her, her, her, her, her, her, her

. . .


A Rock show at the beach
Perfect time
Time to show her
Things don't always work out
And I hope this is never over (over)

Looking deep in her eyes
Shes perfect
I'm wondering whether (whether)
She thinks the same as me
And I hope
That this lasts forever (ever)

Everything that I will ever need
(you're just so beautiful to me)
And I won't go if you will never leave
(you're just so beautiful)

And we are one step closer (come on, come on wooow)
[2x]

Tell me should I confess
To the beat
We're taking it further
I got a way with words
And you got away with murder

Everything that I will ever need
(you're just so beautiful to me)
And I won't go if you will never leave
(you're just so beautiful)
Place your hand in mine this lonely night
(you're just so beautiful to me)
Hold me close and I'll turn off the lights
(you're just so beautiful to me)

And we are one step closer
(come on, come on wuuuuuw)
Dun dun dun dun dun dun, do do do do do do oh
do do do, do do do do do do do
Everyhting that I will ever need,
( you're just so beautiful to me,
and I wont go if you will never leave
( you're just so beautiful )
So, come place your hand in mine,
this so lonely night
( this so lonely, this so lonely )
hold me close and I'll turn off the lights - ahights

Said we are One Step Closer ( Just so beautiful )
And we are One STep Closer oooooooh and we are
We are and we are and we are
just one step and we are and we are and we are.

My heart is harder, and it is beating faster
What ever happened to a
Happily ever after.
With the lastest fashions
And we're high on revenge
You should keep it all here,
Are you better off dead ?

. . .


You're just a girl,
Just one of my accomplishments,
Another girl,
It's hard because I didn't mean for this

(So come on)

Let me stay with you
For a while for a day or maybe two
I can lay with you
See your smile never follow through
And we'll go

Straight from "OH-OHS" to "WOAH-OHS"
From goodbye calls to overdose
I write your name in bullets
So your the last thing through my head
(It's for you)
Lovers become us luscious (red)

I'm just a boy, it's hard because I live in some past tense,
Another boy,
But I'm glad it's safe for you and now it's safe for me
(So come on)

Let me stay with you
For a while for a day or maybe two
I can lay with you
See your smile never follow through
And we'll go

Straight from "OH-OHS" to "WOAH-OHS"
From goodbye calls to overdose
I write your name in bullets
So your the last thing through my head
(It's for you)
Lovers become us luscious (red)

It's 4 U it's 4 U
Lovers become us lucious red

. . .


We've become nothing at all
Lead through the back of our spines
And as our heads hit the floor
We were dead 17 times
And every minute regret
That sank its teeth in my mind
Says all that needs to be said
And said it 17 times

Oh, oh, oh, we never did let it come to this
So don't give up me
Yet

I still can't forget
And while I'm still late
Some might say, some might say
I'll be your biggest regret
They say I'm never inept
Oh lay oh, Oh lay oh
So don't give up on me yet

And everything that I said
Was just a slip of the tongue
To reinforce when I meant
That cliche; you're number one
Let me through, oh, so far away
And said it 17 times
So don't give up on me
Yet

I still can't forget
And while I'm still late
Some might say, some might say
I'll be your biggest regret
They say I'm never inept
Oh lay oh, Oh lay oh
So don't give up on me yet

I still can't forget
And while I'm still late
Some might say, some might say
I'll be your biggest regret
They say I'm never inept
Oh lay oh, Oh lay oh
So don't give up on me
Don't give up on me

Oh lay oh, oh lay oh x8

We've become nothing at all
Lead through the back of our spines
And as our heads hit the floor
We were dead 17 times
And every minute regret
That sank its teeth in my mind
Says all that needs to be said
And said it 17 times

. . .


Bled dry,
A bullet never lies
Look into my eyes, girl,
Would I lie to you?

Stained grave
Do you feel the same way
Tears flood from our eyes, girl
Would I die for you?

Start your engine
To your car
I feel that
Romance will take
The backseat
Tonight

Part, the seal
To my heart
I feel that
My chance
Is under the
Moonlight

Watch them fall
(It's a disaster)
To their knees
(Forever after)
As I lay
I think I'm flat-lining

Watch them fall
(It's a disaster)
Thick as thieves
(Forever after)
As I lay
I think I'm flat-lining

Sorrow
Wait until tomorrow
Hold me close
Never go
Know that I would lie
To you

I'm so insane
I still feel that sharp pain
Running down my back
Girl
Could I die for you?

Watch them fall
(It's a disaster)
To their knees
(Forever after)
As I lay
I think I'm flat-lining

Watch them fall
(It's a disaster)
Thick as thieves
(Forever after)
As I lay
I think I'm flat-lining

Forever just won't
Be the same
Still I forgive you
The pain
Take these broken wings
Fly
From the heart you stole

Watch them fall
To their knees
As I lay
I think I'm flat-lining

Watch them fall
(It's a disaster)
To their knees
(Forever after)
As I lay
I think I'm flat-lining

Watch them fall
(It's a disaster)
Thick as thieves
(Forever after)
As I lay
I think I'm flat-lining

. . .


Bled dry,
A bullet never lies
Look into my eyes, girl,
Would I lie to you?

Stained grave
Do you feel the same way
Tears flood from our eyes, girl
Would I die for you?

Start your engine
To your car
I feel that
Romance will take
The backseat
Tonight

Part, the seal
To my heart
I feel that
My chance
Is under the
