My baby hates me
And it's nobody's fault but mine
He said he'd leave me
But he sure is taking his time

I don't wanna be bad
But I gotta make him mine
So he'll let me go

Let me go, let me go
You don't need to be treated this way
I'm bad for you darling
So don't beg me to stay

Let me go, let me go
I'm so tired of being untrue
Gotta let you find someone who
Loves you more than I do

More than I do, do do do, do do do
More than I do, do do do, do do do

Let me go, let me go (let me go)
Gotta drag this body away
Head off to another mile
Of that old highway

Do do do do, do do do, do do do
Do do do do, do do do, do do do
Do do do do, do do do, do do do
Do do do do, do do do, do do do

Let me go (let me go), let me go (let me go)
I'm so tired of being untrue
Gotta let you find another woman who
Loves you more than I do

More than I do, do do do, do do do
More than I do, do do do, do do do

Do do do do, do do do, do do do
Do do do do, do do do, do do do
Do do do do, do do do, do do do
Do do do do, do do do, do do dooo

Hey, I've seen that look before
No need to say no more
You wanna come over
How, how can we still pretend that we will just be friends under the covers?

Your hair on my shoulder that all feelin' takes over
There's no turnin' back this late at night
And it may not be right, but then again it might
So I guess it's fine, just one more time

One more late night, I sneak out the back with you
Now that the party's through we look for another
I wonder if it was your idea that we should end up here, watching the night disappear

Your hair on my shoulder that all feelin' takes over
There's no turnin' back this late at night
And it may not be right, but then again it might
So I guess it's fine, just one more time

You're sleeping sound, our legs entwined
The sunlight is sneaking in between the blinds
I've gotta go, I've gotta go

Now it's morning, you're walkin' me to my car
Don't worry it's not that far
I guess I'll see you at the bar
And later, if we can stay just friends, then this would never end
You wanna come over?

Your hair on my shoulder that all feelin' takes over
There's no turnin' back this late at night
And it may not be right, but then again it might
So I guess it's fine, just one more time
I guess it's fine, just one more time
I guess it's fine, just one more time

Don't wanna live
Sad and lonely, no, no
So go get a rock
and just stone me, woah oh

Have mercy on me
it's the end
don't you see?

Kill me now, oh, kill me now

You've ruined my life
don't defend it, no, no
Just go get a a knife
and please end it, woah oh

Have mercy on me
it's the end
Don't you see?

Kill me now, oh, kill me now x2

The fire begins as a spark
Next thing you know the whole world is in flames
Next thing you know it's always the same
always the same

You think I'm strong
but I'm not
you can take me

Can't watch it die
not our love
please don't make me

Have mercy on me
it's the end
Don't you see?

kill me now, oh, kill me now x4

. . .


Play me like the fool
Treat me mean and cruel
I wanna be schooled in your love

Fly me nice and high
Drop me from the sky
I wanna know why it's your love

Show me through your darkest secrets
Tell me all you know
Let me settle in beside you
Before you make me go

Bruise me 'til I'm blue
Call up someone new
I wanna be true to your love

Tough this game you play
Make me wanna stay
I'm walking away with your love

Show me through your darkest secrets
Tell me all you know
Let me settle in beside you
Before you make me go
x2

Play me like the fool
Treat me mean and cruel
I wanna be schooled in your love x3

. . .


The face behind the glass
is staring out at me
it says stop looking back
but I can't help what I see
so let the water run into the sink
and wash these stains off me

I scrub at my skin 'til it's so raw I might break through
but this water won't wash away the day that I met you

I'm gonna iron out
all the crinkles that you made
then I'll bleach away
any echo of your name
yeah I will soak you out- erase the trail
cut you from my finger nail

I scrub at my skin 'til it's so raw I might break through
but this water won't wash away the day that I met you

Hang me from a wire
The water's getting higher
Higher
Higher

I scrub at my skin 'til it's so raw I might break through
but this water won't wash away the day that I met you
x2

. . .


Fell into bed
But woke in rehab
With thighs of land
And tongue that tastes of sand

Twist in my sheets
And tangle my head
Open the door
But couldn't go nowhere

And I ran through and through
Everything I said to you
And my demons, they danced
Around bones of our romance

And I pleaded out loud
Can't we please just forget?
Like it hasn't happened yet

The morning came
The afternoon went
Another day
Without you as spent

I checked my phone
I went to the store
I wandered home
And organized my jars

And I ran through and through
Everything I said to you
And my demons, they danced
Around bones of our romance

And I pleaded out loud
Can't we please just forget?
Like it hasn't happened yet

Now you won't see me
I watch through the window
You'll look at me lying
Alone

Misunderstanding
So silly, forgive me
Forget all the words
I said, oh

Won't turn back time
Or bring you back again

And I ran through and through
Everything I said to you
And my demons, they danced
Around bones of our romance

And I pleaded out loud
Can't we please just forget?
Like it hasn't happened yet
Can't we please just forget?
Like it hasn't happened yet

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

. . .


Sunny morning, sunny afternoon
When it's always June, there's no time to cry
Days keep passing, but they're all the same
Seasons never change
And the years are long
Oh, the years are long

Shady river carry me away
Shady river carry me away
Take me off and bring me back another day

City streetlights, how I miss the dark
(???) off the mark when it left me here
Old man moonlight tryin' to keep me blue
And the stars try to
They won't let me go
Won't you let me go?

Shady river carry me away
Shady river carry me away
Take me off and bring me back another day

When I'm tired, and start to think I'm through
Tryin' to be true, but it's awfully hard
Oh, so hard to do

Shady river carry me away
Shady river carry me away
Take me off and bring me back another day

Shady river carry me away
Shady river carry me away
Take me off and bring me back another day

. . .


If you see me out past midnight
If my eyes are glazed with starlight
If my lips are stained wine red
You might make me lose my head

I might smile or even kiss you, bat my eyes like I forgive you
But I don't
No, it's not me
It's the wine, oh don't you see?

Oh my darling, I don't love you
And I'm not about to start
Don't adore you, won't die for you
Not afraid you'll break my heart

You've been talkin like I need you
Like I'd do anything to keep you to myself
But it's not true
Hardly even think of you

And if I call you and I'm lonely
Just remember that it's only just a habit
It's not me
You're so easy, don't you see?

Oh my darling, I don't love you
And I'm not about to start
Don't adore you, won't die for you
Not afraid you'll break my heart

And if you're thinkin' you might woo me
Say you're true to mine, you'll soon see
I'll just slip away like sand, runnin' from your hands

So if you see me out past midnight and I whisper that I just might
Just remember that's not me
I don't love you don't you see?

Oh my darling, I don't love you
And I'm not about to start
Don't adore you, won't die for you
Not afraid you'll break my heart

. . .


You are the one for me
I know that it's true
There's nothing as sure the way I adore you
So listen up well, I've been dying to tell you
I don't like your girlfriend
I don't like your girlfriend

You are the one for me
No doubt in my mind
My life's not the same since I first heard your name
Whenever I'm 'round you I think I done found you
But I don't like your girlfriend
No, I don't like your girlfriend

Yellow sun
White, white lies
Lock her in her hazel eyes
Envy green, stone wall gray
Why won't you just go away?

You are the one for me
But she's gotta go
Why can't you just wake up?
I need you to break up
One day you'll snap to it, call me when you do it
Cause I don't like your girlfriend
I don't like your girlfriend (That's because she's not me)
I don't like your girlfriend
I don't like your girlfriend

. . .


Well, the windows are too thin to keep you in, to keep you in
But in case you haven't heard, I'm like a bird, I'm like a bird

I hear the wind blow
It blows the night on by
It just cries and it cries, nothing keeps me dry

Well, the storm is never still
I wander through, lookin' for you
Won't you ever hear my song?
It's been too long, it's been too long

I hear the wind blow
It blows the night on by
It just cries and it cries, nothing keeps me dry
Where are you tonight?

Let the rain pour down again
Rain in my hands, where you have been
If the morning light awakes without you here, my heart breaks

I hear the wind blow
It blows the night on by
It just cries and it cries, nothing keeps me dry

It's rainin' harder, it carries me away
There can be no other way than with you, my love
Where are you tonight?
Where are you tonight?
My love, my love
Where are you tonight?
Where are you tonight?
My love, my love

. . .


Dark, dark, dark is the night
And cold is the ground
Far, far, far is the light
There's no-one around
No, no-one
Without a hurt, hearing you go
Without a hurt, seeing my skull

I hate the moon
When the night has hurt you so bad
That it's killed every day that you have
And it's left your heart heavy and somber
You'll hate it too

Time, time, time passes slow
The minutes stand still
Don't, don't, don't wanna look
But know that I will
Don't know why
Without a hurt, hearing you go
Without a hurt, seeing my skull

I hate the moon
When the night has hurt you so bad
That it's killed every day that you have
And it's left your heart heavy and somber
You'll hate it too

Is anything like the timely sadness and despair?
Didn't it just magnify the darkness everywhere-ere-ere-ere?

Dark, dark, dark is my day
Oh where is the sun?
Why, why, why must I wait
Around for no-one?
Don't know why
Without a hurt, hearing you go
Without a hurt, seeing my skull

I hate the moon
I hate the moon
You'll hate it too
