Out of the Water

Baby, are you down
to stay the night?
My bed without your breath
don't feel right,
like a sword without
it's shield
or notes without
a reason.
Baby, are you down
to stay the night?
Would a little loving
clear your head?
Would a little loving
raise the dead?
Cuz Baby you're insane,
but I refuse to lose
your game.
So would a little loving
clear your head?
But all I can hear is,
"Stay out of the water.
There's no room for you here.
You don't need the pain
and love ain't worth the shame, no.
Just stay out of the water."
Feed my lungs
and burn my soul.
You make me feel
like a dog who can't
come home.
Late at night
when we're coming down
my chain's shaking,
I can see the sound, no.
You make me wonder
if it's better than being alone.
But all I can hear is,
(Chorus)

I gotta see about a girl.
I caught her twirling
in the street light.
She moved too well
for words,
so well my body hurt,
but I don't mind.
In fact, it felt divine
and I was hoping
I could waste some
of her time.
I wanna show her
how it is.
I wanna show her
how it is,
and if I take her home,
if I take her home
she won't be dancing alone.
What I mean to say,
in my own twisted way,
is that a girl who looks so good
should feel the same.
And I would love to help,
and maybe even help myself
along the way.
Oh, please don't let her change
until I show her
how it is.
I wanna show her
how it is,
and if I take her home,
if I take her home
she won't be dancing alone.

Now that I'm sitting here alone,
I can see you clear as day.
Now that I can't hear your voice,
I know just what you'd say to me.
You'd say I was a fool,
I had you just where I needed,
but I made the wrong choice
and now I'm sitting here bleeding it out.
And you know,
I won't be here long
and you make me feel whole,
so why can't we get along?
I guess that's the whole joke,
and I just got it all.
I hope you hear me whine,
I hope it makes you feel good.
I know I wasted your time
and if you hate me,
you should, but I don't mind
cuz you know,
(Chorus)
So now I'm sitting here alone,
singing the same damn song.
I think I wrote it enough,
but I've been writing it wrong
and you know,
(Chorus)

Grow Your Bones

Baby, I'm just one dying star.
I don't burn much brighter than this,
but I promise to give
cuz your lips they steer me.
I just want to know
after giving you
all my love,
what will you do to me?
Would you conquer me?
Babe, your lips they steer me.
Babe, your lips they steer me
low
and I love
to hear your tones,
so grow your bones
and then maybe
you could roll my stones,
yea..
Now your body gets me screaming,
oh lover just leave the feeling to me.
We were trapped at shore,
but now we're lost at sea.
Babe, your lips they steer me.
Babe, your lips they steer me
low
and I love
to hear your tones,
so grow your bones
and then maybe
you could roll my stones.
hehehe.

Fair Warning

If only I could go up in the sky
to watch over you and I,
and gain a different perspective
as opposed to the alternative
of listening to my low leveled eyes.
Cuz I don't trust myself
as far as, I could throw this all away
and say we're on a break,
then just forget to call you back some day.
Baby, don't you hurt for long
cuz I've got more than half a mind to stay
for all the time I've wasted
writing songs about the way you break me down.
And when you talk about love
you start getting on my nerves.
Try not to be so dramatic,
remember the stage is over there
and you're over here with me.
Try to remember we have to be a two way street.
We walk together.
Try to remember you're not the only one who can leave.
(Chorus)
I don't mean to sound so frustrated,
I'm just trying to impart my feelings.
(Chorus)
