You say that you don't know the power that you have
Stop feigning innocence by pretending you're sad
I've watched you walk away from me so many times
Tears in my eyes from all the lies
One more goodbye
But first why don't you
Take another piece of my heart while it's crying for you
Take another piece of my heart
It's what you wanted right from the start:
Two people fighting for you
So take another piece of my heart
I'm done with you
You're acting like it's fine
Like you're back in my life
Like you've never been away
Like you've always been mine
I've watched you walk away from me so many times
Tears in my eyes from all the lies
One more goodbye
But first why don't you
Take another piece of my heart while it's crying for you
Take another piece of my heart
It's what you wanted right from the start:
Two people fighting for you
So take another piece of my heart
I'm done with you
'Cause you played the part so well
And I'd believe the lies you'd tell
So I have to let go
And while I'm lying on the floor
Just take the rest, I have no more, no more, no more
Take another piece of my heart while it's crying for you
Take another piece of my heart
It's what you wanted right from the start:
Two people fighting for you
So take another piece of my heart
Take another piece of my heart while it's crying for you
Take another piece of my heart
It's what you wanted right from the start:
Two people fighting for you
So take another piece of my heart
I'm done with you

Breathe Under The Water
03:40

Rock the boat here we go
Everyday with you held me captive
Now you’re gone movin’ on
Onto something new, more attractive
Blindfolded, offloaded
You walked me off the edge
Defeated, retreated
This isn’t over yet
I’m gonna breathe under the water
I’m gonna swim against the stormy tide
I will return and I’ll be stronger
I’ll open my eyes, I’ll open my eyes
I’m gonna breathe under the water
You underestimate my state of mind
I’m gonna breathe under the water
Breathe under the water breathe under the water
Seeing blind, move the tide
Let it rain on me, let it thunder
No regrets, place your bets
Will I sink or swim? Wanna find, wanna find out?
Outspoken, heartbroken
You walked me off the edge
But these ocean emotions
Could take me anywhere
I’m gonna breathe under the water
I’m gonna swim against the stormy tide
I will return and I’ll be stronger
I’ll open my eyes, I’ll open my eyes
I’m gonna breathe under the water
You underestimate my state of mind
I’m gonna breathe under the water
Breathe under the water breathe under the water
Oooh oooh oooooh
I can feel the open sea
Oooh ooooh oooooh
No one here to rescue me
I’m gonna breathe under the water
I’m gonna swim against the stormy tide
I will return and I’ll be stronger
I’ll open my eyes, I’ll open my eyes
I’m gonna breathe under the water
You underestimate my state of mind
I’m gonna breathe under the water
Breathe under the water breathe under the water
Bet you didn’t think that I had a plan to save my life
Bet you didn’t think that I, I believed in me
Bet you didn’t think that I had a plan to save my life
Bet you didn’t think that I, I believed in me

Misery

It’s like they’ve got it all
Now I’m so cynical
Just so typical of me to / hideaway / point the blame
It’s hypocritical
When I’m this miserable
It’s unforgivable so I’ll come clean
I don’t wanna be the one who’s on my knees
I don’t wanna be the one
Misery
Misery
You won’t get the best of me
Cause I don’t wanna be the one, I don’t wanna be
Misery
Misery
I’m asking you now pretty please
Get outta my head now
Misery
I’ve surely had enough
I never get enough
I’m never good enough so I runaway
It’s clearly criminal
I’m gonna leave it all
It’s unforgivable so I’ll come clean
I don’t wanna be the one who’s on my knees
I don’t wanna be the one
Misery
Misery
You won’t get the best of me
Cause i don’t wanna be the one, I don’t wanna be
Misery
Misery
I’m asking you now pretty please
Get outta my head now
Misery
Misery has been a friend of mine
For the longest time
Misery has been a friend of mine
For the longest time
But now I wanna say goodbye
Misery
Misery
You won’t get the best of me
Cause i don’t wanna be the one, I don’t wanna be
Misery
Misery
I’m asking you now pretty please
Get outta my head now
Misery

Virtual Hug

They say that you’re just words on a screen
But how could they know what it really means
They say that we’re lost in make believe
Not deceiving, ‘cause you believe in me
And you don’t need to be here, here
I can feel you near, near
Because I used to be lost
But Iook what I found
I know that this is real
I can feel it now
Because I used to be lost
I had to pretend
Can’t tell me how to feel
Don’t they comprehend
That you don’t need to be here, here
For me to feel you near, near
They will roll their eyes, refuse to see
Ones and zeros connecting you to me
And you don’t need to be here, here
I can feel you near, near
Because I used to be lost
But now I feel heard
You know how to heal
With a single word
You know I used to be lost
The world is so tough
You’re the one who showed me
I am strong enough
Even though you’re not here, here
I still feel you near, near
You know I used to be lost
Now Iook what we found
I know that this is real
I can feel it now
You know I used to be lost
But now I’m set free
I know that this is real
It’s no fantasy
You know I used to be lost
Now Iook what we found
I know that this is real
I can feel it now
You know I used to be lost
But now I’m set free
I know that this is real
It’s no fantasy
Because I used to be fake
But now I feel seen
A moment spent with you
Is everything I need

Run For Your Life
05:42

I seek comfort in my mind
The only place I call home
I'm all alone and no-one judges me
I laugh at my own jokes
I conjure musical dreams far away from home
But the only thing I wanna do
Is make friends with my soul
Make friends with my soul
Make friends with my soul
Make friends with my soul
But I can't decide what's good for me
And what's best for me
So run for your life
Well I'm running now
I'm running towards all the hype
I'm so lazy I'm so bored
I have to do something
I need to be reassured about a thousand times before I do anything
And we're running out of time
So run for your life
Run for your life
But I can't decide what's good for me
And what's best for me
So run for your life
Well I'm running now
I'm running towards all the hype
There's no point, you'll never make it
You're trying so hard but you left it too late
If you wanna get there, you'll have to fake it
You're trying so hard but you haven't got it
There's no point, you'll never make it
You're trying so hard but you left it too late
If you wanna get there, you'll have to fake it
You're trying so hard but you haven't got it
So run run run run run run run run run run run
Run for your life
Run run run run run run run run run run
Run for your life
But I can't decide what's good for me
And what's best for me
So run for your life
Well I'm running now
I'm running towards all the hype
So run for your life
Run for your life
Run run run run run run run run run run run
Run for your life
Run run run run run run run run run run
Run for your life
Run run run run run run run run run run run

Unforgettable
03:14

I've been trying for day and weeks and hours
To tell you how I really feel
We were orbiting round the same old planet
But then communication disappeared
Oh and I’d try to runaway from this pain if I was able
But you don’t really listen to me
Oh and I’d try to run away from this pain if I was able
But you’re not really listenin’
When I've tried to explain
That it’s unforgettable
'Cause I’ve tried to explain, this pain
Is unforgettable
Yes I’ve tried to explain
That it’s unforgettable
Yes I’ve tried to explain
That it's unforgettable
I made both of you feel involved and valued
Then you slammed the door on me
I was hoping for simple understanding
But you twist the knife back in
Oh and I’d try to runaway from this pain if I was able
But you don’t really listen to me
Oh and I’d try to run away from this pain if I was able
But you’re not really listenin’
When I've tied to explain
That it’s unforgettable
'Cause I’ve tried to explain, this pain
Is unforgettable
Yes I’ve tried to explain
That it’s unforgettable
Yes I’ve tried to explain
This pain is unforgettable

The First Time
04:51

I don’t feel like the world is mine like before
I don’t feel like the world is mine
I wonder why I even try anymore
I wonder why I even try
It was so good yesterday
How I used to hit repeat
I wish I could say it was as good as the first time
But you only get to hear a song once for the first time
I could say it was as good as the first time
You only get to hear a song once for the first time
Trying to get back to that feeling
Well you gave me something to believe in
I don’t feel like your love is mine like before
I don’t feel like your love is mine
I wonder why we even try anymore
I wonder why we even try
It was so good yesterday
Now a distant memory
I wish I could say it was as good as the first time
You only get to fall in love once for the first time
I could say it was as good as the first time
But you only get to fall in love once for the first time
Trying to get back to that feeling
Well you gave me something to believe in
I wish I could say it was as good as the first time
You only get to hear a song once for the first time
I could say it was as good as the first time
But you only get to fall in love once for the first time
For the first time
For the first time

Catching Up

Indecisive? I don't know
I don't know
Will I? Won't I?
Yes or no?
If you say so
It's never easy if you hide
But what if you tried?
Everyone is two steps ahead of the game
I swear I've been here forever
Catching up, I'm running out of breath
Can you hear my future screaming "no, no, no!"
Somewhere I lost all of you
All of you
I lost my place in line, I'm back of the queue
No wonder why I'm always tired
I always feel like
Everyone is two steps ahead of the game
I swear I've been here forever
Catching up, I'm running out of breath
Can you hear my future screaming "no, no, no, no, no, no, no!"
I don't wanna be left behind
Standing in the dark
You're at the finish line while I'm still at the start
Everyone is two steps ahead of the game
I swear I've been here forever
Catching up, I'm running out of breath
Can you hear my future screaming "no, no!"
Everyone is two steps ahead of the game
I swear I've been here forever
Catching up, I'm running out of breath
Can you hear my future screaming "no, no, no, no, no, no, no!"

You don't want me
I know that
But sometimes it's just easy
To erase that fact
I enter wonderland
I don't wanna come back
I hate the way I get so jealous in spite of what you say
I hate how you listen so carefully, 'cause I can't say what I want to say
I hate how you look so perfect in every single way
I hate how you keep ignoring this and pretend everything's ok
I just want to show you how much you mean to me
But you never held out your hand for me to reach
You never really knew the way you made me feel
I hate the way I get so jealous in spite of what you say
I hate how you listen so carefully, 'cause I can't say what I want to say
I hate how you look so perfect in every single way
I hate how you keep ignoring this and pretend everything's ok
I hate how you flirt so much with everyone but me
I hate that I know the reason why but still expect you to act differently
I hate how I can't control my feelings
And can't keep myself from you
I hate how you're clouding my vision with thoughts of being with you
I hate how I feel when alone with you, 'cause I feel so happy inside
I hate the way that you make me smile and that from you I cannot hide
I hate the way I get so jealous in spite of what you say
I hate how you listen so carefully, 'cause I can't say what I want to say
I hate how you look so perfect in every single way
I hate how you keep ignoring this and pretend everything's ok

The air I breathe don't work for me
The sun is lost, it's hiding
And friends of mine don't talk to me
And all I feel is jealousy
I never thought I'd be wondering
Of different ways I can escape
Is life worth living for the fun of it?
Give me a reason that'll make me stay
Take me down to the finish line
Skip this part of the middle life
I'm not sure that I'm getting by without you
Without you
I don't know what it feels like
To live my life on the other side
Free from pain, free from anything that can hurt
That can die
That can die
And I don't feel I'm good enough to handle this
It's all too much
When you're not here, I'm giving up
That's it, I quit
No more, I'm done
It should be easier to stay in touch
So why am I always alone?
I've always tried to be so generous
But nothing's ever given in return
Take me down to the finish line
Skip this part of the middle life
I'm not sure that I'm getting by without you
Without you
Tell me more of the afterlife
What's it like there beyond the light?
Free from pain, free from anything that can hurt
That can die
That can die
Take me down to the finish line
Skip this part of the middle life
I'm not sure that I'm getting by without you
Without you
I don't know what it feels like
To live my life on the other side
Free from pain, free from anything that can hurt
That can die
That can die

Tears in your eyes
Another day wasting away
And you say in your mind
"I am alone"
The story you've told yourself time and time again
But here's where that all ends
'Cause if you feel like you are falling apart and you
Don't have the answers to the questions you find
And all the signs are pointing back to the day when you
Had someone there to help you light up your life
It's really easy
Listen to me
Do you hear me?
I will never leave you behind
In your mind's eye
Take my hand, it's alright you can
I'm by your side
I never left, my love is sent to you in different ways
Each and every day
So if you feel like you are falling apart and you
Don't have the answers to the questions you find
And everyday just offers more of the same and you
Don't have a reason now to open the blinds
It's really easy
Listen to me
Do you hear me?
I will never leave you behind
So if you feel like you are falling apart and you
Don't have the answers to the questions you find
And everyday just offers more of the same and you
Don't have a reason now to open the blinds
And if you feel like you are falling apart and you
Don't have the answers to the questions you find
And all the signs are pointing back to the day when you
Had someone there to hold your hand while you cried

Weightless
11:50

Whatever happened to the days where I simply enjoyed life?
Nothing could ever bring me down, I was always high up in the sky
I used to smile without a thought and laugher came easily
But now everyday's a struggle, sometimes I find it difficult just to breathe
And it's these times that I think of you
And how I need you
But I know I can never be with you
Let me feel weightless once again
Let all these memories be erased from my mind
But if I really had the chance to start over again
Then to all that is real, I would be blind
Why do I constantly feel numb?
Where can I find a distraction?
Don't tell me I'm exaggerating, I don't like your negative reaction
Why can't I just get away and finally give my mind some peace
'Cause it's when I'm on my own that my jumbled thoughts of the world congregate that life becomes more obscene
And it's these times that I think of you
And how I need you
But I know I can never be with you
Let me feel weightless once again
Let all these memories be erased from my mind
But if I really had the chance to start over again
Then to all that is real, I would be blind
I would be blind
Blind
Blind
Let me feel weightless once again
Let all these memories be erased from my mind
But if I really had the chance to start over again
Then to all that is real, I would be blind
Let me feel weightless once again
Let all these memories be erased from my mind
But if I really had the chance to start over again
Then to all that is real, I would be blind
I would be blind
