I knew little to nothing of my world
so afraid to be a soul unfurled
and now there's no time left to stall
I'm breaking down these God damn walls
now all I wanna do is move
I wanna move with you
we're gonna change each others' lives tonight
we're gonna move
i knew little to nothing of you, girl
but that ain't ever gonna stop me from giving you a whirl
got me twitter pated and enthralled
i fall for your coquettish voodoo calls
now all i wanna do is move
I wanna move with you
we're gonna change each others' lives tonight
we're gonna move
all I wanna do is move with you
all I wanna do is move with you
all I wanna do is move with you
all I wanna do is move with you

Hey Boss Lady, let me love you right
keep you warm until the morning light
and in the dark I work for you tonight
Boss Lady, let me love you right
I wanna worship you, though you're far from holy
keep you from ever feeling lonely
know you so you can know me
what I gotta do, you don't gotta show me
you don't have to say you're mine
you don't have to pay for over time
you don't have to sign any dotted line
deligate, and let me take it to ya this time
hey Boss Lady, let me love you right
keep you warm until the morning light
and in the dark I work for you tonight
Boss Lady, let me love you right
you deserve to be served from underneath
with an amenable demeanor I live to please you
I just want to see your secrets
any lie you tell, now I'll believe you
you know how to get me going
gonna lay you down now oh so slowly
fill you til you overflow
and you make me your one and only
hey Boss Lady, let me love you right
keep you warm until the morning light
and in the dark I work for you tonight
Boss Lady, let me love you right

For No One Else

deliciously malicious, that's how I like it
I got nothing for a good girl, but naughty gets you all of me
you see through me with your dangerous gaze
your words abuse me, your eyes make me crazy for more, crazy for more
no one else, for no one else would I be punishing myself
no one else, for no one else would I be put upon this shelf
no one else, for no one else
you move so fast, don't care if it'll last
oh I got a little bit more for you if what you want is bad
so please touch me like a stranger, leave me in a daze
love me with your anger, hear i remain crazy for more, crazy for more
no one else, for no one else would I be punishing myself
no one else, for no one else would I be put upon this shelf
no one else, for no one else
what is love if not consuming?
in the rose's thorns I find the beauty
no one else, for no one else would I be punishing myself
no one else, for no one else would I be put upon this shelf
no one else, for no one else would I be punishing myself
no one else, for no one else, would I be put upon this shelf
no one else, for no one else

Ready To Go Without

I watch you seduce the room, everybody wants to steal your sway
im not without the hunger only you could satiate
come a little closer, ignite my nerves
I wanna give up, I wanna give in, I wanna know the glory of that sin
and fall victim to everything I think I deserve
I'm calling out to you, I'm calling you out
I'm onto you and I need something real right now
I'm calling out to you, I'm calling you out
I'm never giving up, but I'm ready to go without
hypnotize and tease me, happily I will play along
idealize, you don't want to know the real me
push me away and then blame me cuz I'm gone
so toxic, so exotic, so set in your provocative ways
i wanna give up, i wanna give in
I've got no hope of control over this situation
I'm calling out to you, I'm calling you out
I'm onto you and I need something real right now
I'm calling out to you, I'm calling you out
I'm never giving up, but I'm ready to go without
please say you hear me
please say you hear me
please say you hear me
please say you hear me

Child's Play
03:15
|

|
she held so much inside, she's touched
it was never enough
what have I got? what have I got?
we recognized we could run wild
we could admire
she could aim higher
real love took up too much room
you're only in it for what's in it for you
with my arms crossed and turned away
child's play
it's not her fault, all judgement recalled
i was also impossible
what have I got, what have I got
real love took up too much room
you're only in it for what's in it for you
with my arms crossed and turned away
child's play
I wanna start and end my days with you
I'm a dirty boy, I wanna play with you
but real love took up too much room
you're only in it for what's in it for you
with my arms crossed and turned away
child's play

Meet Me Halfway
03:59
|

|
I'm not the one who needs defending
I'm not the one who cut the ties
I'm not the one looking in a broken mirror
I'm not the one itching from the insides
you're a private party and I'm uninvited
little miss cynical needs a big surprise
we regale them with tales of our love unrequited
as you are yourself beside, as I am, as am I
meet me halfway and baby I'll stay
meet me halfway and baby we can find a way
meet me halfway and baby I'll stay
meet me halfway and baby we can find a way
I'm not the one who made you miss me
I'm not the one who's love divides
I'm not the one who won't offer what I ask for
you'll only follow if we dive into the darker side
you're a super villain vixen playing damsel in distress
my only real addiction, my sole obsession
with the body of a goddess but the soul of the succubi,
so I say
meet me halfway and baby I'll stay
meet me halfway and baby we can find a way
meet me halfway and baby I'll stay
meet me halfway and baby we can find a way
oh no, no don't let me go
oh no, no don't let me go
on no, no don't let me go
oh no, no don't let me go
meet me halfway and baby I'll stay
meet me halfway and baby we can find a way
meet me halfway and baby I'll stay
meet me halfway and baby we can find a way

A Wasted Bed
03:15
|

|
he will never be satisfied doing it his way
waste time catastrophizing, living in yesterday
he loves a cloudy morning, looks out for himself
he's out to get his cuz no one else is gonna give it to him
she will never be satisfied waiting for her day
a lot of wishing no initiative, where is her saving grace?
she loves a cloudy morning, another day to stay inside
she counts the hours and hides the tears in her laugh lines
oh trapped in the rapture, trapped in the rapture of lasting love
oh trapped in the rapture, trapped in the rapture of lasting love
they will never be satisfied leaving it unsaid
tonight so loud the silence, tonight they sleep in a wasted bed
they love a cloudy morning, oh how apropos
too tired to reignite the fire, and this is how their story goes

Lady Fate
04:44

|
take me for a ride, it's the blind leading the blind
I don't want this body and mind to anymore be mine
I wanna be the stranger, another new beginning
no one wants me to stay here, so I'll take no one with me
when again we're ashes, we'll be forever dancing with the ones we love
with the ones we love
when again we're ashes, we'll be forever dancing with the ones we love
so am I the swine undeserving of your pearls?
like it's oh so magical living in your world
to want to be in your hands, how I have long forgotten
and on my knees I can stand, I learn to love the riot
when again we're ashes, we'll be forever dancing with the ones we love
with the ones we love
when again we're ashes, we'll be forever dancing with the ones we love
so let lady fate do with us what she wants
let lady fate do with us what she wants
let lady fate to us what she wants
let lady fate do with us what she wants
cuz time, time forgets us all
time, time forgets us all

For The Long Haul
03:00
|

how can I help it?
throwing rocks and kicking stones and breaking bones apart
a place of anger is where I'm warm, where I conform
try not to take it to heart
I advise you, it might surprise you
fleeting is the nature of this fever
so keep a distance, but only for this instance
when it's over I'll need you to be here
if you can stand it I'd like you to stay
if you can stand it I'd like you to stay
if you can stand it I'd like you to stay
for the long haul
so now that you know
don't take offense, just wait for the swelling to go down
a place of panic is where I'm cold
and I told you if I'm not careful I'll drown
when I once again resemble, reassemble
the familiar man that you know
if you want to I won't stop you
if you want to I will let you go
but if you can stand it I'd like you to stay
if you can stand it I'd like you to stay
if you can stand it I'd like you to stay
for the long haul
for the long haul
if you can stand it I'd like you to stay
if you can stand it I'd like you to stay
if you can stand it I'd like you to stay
for the long haul
for the long haul

A Part Of Me
04:19
|

I've been the bad guy and I let you down
though I only tried to lift you up
I wanna tell you but you're not around
this cycle you and I can't stop
can I get, can I get, can I get a little bit of redemption
for the best of my intentions
you wanna get, wanna get, wanna get a little high and mighty
well you're the only one you're fighting
so paint another red flag white
you're certifiably beautiful
you are, you are, you are
a part of me, a part I need
you are, you are, you are
a part of me I need
how can I reach you and let you know
I see something else inside wants out
I see the real you, and oh how I love you so
but just like me you like to live in doubt
there you go, there you go, there you go again
running away from me
and gone are the days of the chase
there you go, there you go, there you go again
to arms to an empty battlefield
come back let me wash away the war paint
just paint another red flag white
you're a gold worth panning for
you are, you are, you are
a part of me, a part I need
you are, you are, you are
a part of me I need
something so self-sabatoging and I can't get enough
with all the power you've allowed me, i don't want to turn it off
just call me Captain Tries-Too-Hard
I miss your hips, your lips, and the boulevard
you are, you are, you are
a part of me, a part I need
you are, you are, you are
a part of me I need

Let Go
03:45

so you say the greater good is on its way
and there's nothing can be done to change your fate
you do as you do as it happens all around you
and no action that you take can rearrange
all backfires and mishaps have let you here
were the failures in your favor it isn't clear
in stone it's all been set so try not to forget
while it feels you are, you aren't the one who steers
let go, let go
try not to try too hard
let go, let go
the future's not too far away
don't fight you frightened one, what have you learned?
your light is shining now from who you were
you will be who you are, now get out from under that upturned jar
the tides you try to tame are gonna turn
let go, let go
try not to try too hard
let go, let go
the future's not too far away
the call of yesteryear has all but disappeared
it whispers in your ear and you can only hear it if you
let go, let go
try not to try too hard
let go, let go
the future's not too far away

remember kissing in the rain
oh what a wonderful cliché
like it happened yesterday but it was lives ago
I can see you when my eyes are closed
what I'm feeling you have had to know
it's no surprise, these colors in my eyes I've never seen before
and I howl at the moon cuz I wanna be closer to you
I know now would be too soon but I wanna be closer to you
right now
try to run, we all go back for more
try to hide, it's inevitable
gone, forgotten just like yesterday but it was lives ago
I can see you when my eyes are closed
what I'm feeling, tell me that you know
it's no surprise, I see it in your eyes, the lies go on and on
and I howl at the moon cuz I wanna be closer to you
I know now would be too soon but I wanna be closer to you now
and I howl at the moon cuz I wanna be closer to you
I know now would be too soon but I wanna be closer to you
and I howl at the moon cuz I wanna be closer to you
I know now would be too soon but I wanna be closer to you

Candles & Lace

sunrise behind the city lights
said my goodbyes so many times
still I await your reply
the fog is rolling in
from here I don't know how to begin
don't need another lesson in loss
left me bereft and asleep in the moss
gladly I'll pay whatever the cost
just let me let love in
let my new life begin
survived without you by my side
but still I live for your divine
can I just show you where I used to hide
there's something I can't erase
love is not all candles and lace
sunrise behind the city lights
said my goodbyes so many times
still I await your reply
