Baby, Oh baby, I really want to tell you that I feel a little reckless in all the worse ways I'm sorry, I know that I've been a little crazy But its been a little difficult by myself I know [I know you're frustrated And don't know how to tell you But I need a little time to myself It's getting backbreaking I push back my emotions To put it all aside to make things right again] When everything that comes together falls apart It could be worse It could be raining And now I'm finding myself Through all this mess (Sit back, relax, take it from the start again) (I know that I haven't been the best of friends) I'm trying my hardest to be your everything (But it's hard when I'm breaking) It gets a little heavy When all I want Is to find out who I am But things are falling apart again You won't even give Me a second chance I'm trying real hard To be a better man And I can't be what you want me to be When I don't even know who I am I think I'm going crazy baby I hope you understand (We're going back to the start again) When everything that comes together falls apart It could be worse It could be raining And now I'm finding myself Through all this mess (Sit back, relax, take it from the start again) (I know that I haven't been the best of friends) I'm trying my hardest to be your everything (But it's hard when I'm breaking) (But it's hard when I'm breaking) [We're going back to the start again] And now I'm finding myself Through all this mess (Sit back, relax, take it from the start again) (I know that I haven't been the best of friends) I'm trying my hardest to be your everything (But it's hard when I'm breaking) And now I'm finding myself Through all this mess (Let's take this back to the start) But now I'm trying to be you're everything (But it's hard when I'm breaking)

Well she's got me Tongue tied And knots in my stomach When she started moving closer to me I think I'm going crazy Grey eyes Like every fret I'm strumming' And I can't get you out of my mind She's got me humming like Woah oh oh x3 That grey eyed girl puts knots in my stomach And we're just looking for love We're all just looking for, love I'll pull the ground on up to you When your heads in the clouds I'll be your only anchor When there's no one else around And I keep telling myself Not to fall back down But it's something else this time When you're around you've got me going crazy And I just want to make you mine I've got my hands on your hips And your name on my lips And the one thing I just can't figure out Is how every little thing Just seems so perfect to me When we could just fall out You've got that hurricane smile And pale white stare And you started moving closer to me I've got my heart beating faster And well rehearsed words But your making it harder to breathe You've got me like woah oh oh x3 That grey eyed girl puts knots in my stomach And we're just looking for love We're all just looking for, love I'll pull the ground on up to you When your heads in the clouds I'll be your only anchor When there's no one else around And I keep telling myself Not to fall back down But it's something else this time When you're around you've got me going crazy And I just want to make you mine We're all just looking for Just looking for Just looking for Love x2 You've got me wrapped around your finger You've got me out of my mind Your words just cut right through me All day all the time We're all just looking for Just looking for Just looking for Love x2 I'll pull the ground on up to you When your heads in the clouds I'll be your only anchor When there's no one else around And I keep telling myself Not to fall back down But it's something else this time When you're around you've got me going crazy And I just want to make you mine

Fuck the single life It's driving me crazy, And all I have to say is What if just maybe, We could walk around Like we both own this town. Well I've been showing you off To all my friends, We both laughed and talked But then you ended it, The same old song and dance You're so renown. And I'm just asking, Why you said that. I'm wondering, Why you said that to me. To me [Chorus] I'm trying just to get it right Trying just to get it right now You and me are over, How could I just start this over? I'm trying just to get it right Trying just to get it right now You and me are through, And how could I just waste my time on you? Fuck this single shit I'm taking things from the top, New girl, same hair, But we just talk. I stop myself from you. Well, call me crazy, Have you looked at me lately? I think I'm best alone. You think you can change me, I hate to say, but you wont. And I'm just asking, Why you said that I'm wondering, Why you said that to me, To me. [Chorus] I'm trying just to get it right Trying just to get it right now You and me are over, How could I just start this over? I'm trying just to get it right Trying just to get it right now You and me are through, And how could I just waste my time on you? Say what you want But you're never gonna change me Take all you want But you're never gonna catch me now Right now Say what you want But you're never gonna change me Take all you want But you're never gonna catch me now Right now I'm trying just to get it right Trying just to get it right now You and me are over, How could I just start this over? I'm trying just to get it right Trying just to get it right now You and me are through, And how could I just waste my time on you? [Chorus] (Say what you want but you're never gonna change me) I'm trying just to get it right (Take all you want but you're never gonna catch me now) Trying just to get it right now You and me are over, How could I just start this over? (Say what you want but you're never gonna change me) I'm trying just to get it right (Take all you want but you're never gonna catch me now) Trying just to get it right now You and me are through, And how could I just waste my time on you?

20,000 Miles 07:03
I was never one for words But you my dear have got the best of me I never knew that something like this could be I gave up I was defeated but now it's clear to see, The man that I was alway meant to be, And I hope I can say this right, That you, are the one I want tonight We found love in all the wrong places Put our hearts where they were never meant to be But now I've found, new hope, new love, new changes, On the man I thought I could never be, When you're with me. And twenty thousand miles couldn't keep us apart, I've got these words in my head, and a hole in my heart and I, Gave up my hope. Now I've found you, when I'm around you, I can't keep to myself, You're everything I've wanted and you just know how to help To fix, this broken heart. And please let me say this right, You are all that I need tonight, We found love in all the wrong places Put our hearts where they were never meant to be But now I've found, new hope, new love, new changes, On the man I thought I could never be, When you're with me. I know that it's cliche but I don't give a damn We'll be judged on who we are because they won't understand What it's like to be this happy I know that you're away but I will wait forever Just to sing you my songs and to be together At last and hear your laugh We found love in all the wrong places Put our hearts where they were never meant to be But now I've found, new hope, new love, new changes, On the man I thought I could never be, When you're with me, We found love in all the wrong places Put our hearts where they were never meant to be But now I've found, new hope, new love, new changes, On the man I thought I could never be, When you're with me.

And I've been drinking for days To forget everything you've said to me You're like a warm deep cut in my skin And I can't shake out all these memories I'm lost and forgotten You're voice has been haunting me So please let me get some sleep I'll talk to you when I am me again You said you'd take my hand And lead me to understand How we should be together in the end And I remember the stupid fights We'd talk for hours every night And everything felt right when you were there beside me So here's to everything I've lost Every hour I've lost you Please wake me up when this can end I should have never called you And I've been drinking for days To forget everything you've said to me You're like a warm deep cut in my skin And I can't shake out all these memories I'm lost and forgotten You're voice has been haunting me So please let me get some sleep I'll talk to you when I am me again And all these lines inside my head They keep me up when I'm in bed I try to sing myself to sleep But it's not the same when you're with me I just can't find some peace of mind Every minutes a waste of time And if I don't act now It just might pass me by So here's to everything I've lost Every hour I've lost you Please wake me up when this can end I should have never called you Yeah I know And I've been drinking for days To forget everything you've said to me You're like a warm deep cut in my skin And I can't shake out all these memories I'm lost and forgotten You're voice has been haunting me So please let me get some sleep I'll talk to you when I am me again And I've smoked all of these cigarettes To try to reason with myself How I fucked this up again How could I throw all of this away Its what I wanted but now I need you to stay Just keep breathing Headphones in Reality out Keep calm, carry on And I've been drinking for days girl now please tell me this If you give up on us now there'd be so much to miss So please come back, And I will give you all I can So one day you and me will fall hand in hand

Karma 03:44
With that look in your eyes, I feel like I just died, My hope sinks through the floor, And I know you despise, When I call every night, But I just need some more. So tell me darling (Do you even want this?) Tell me darling (Do you even want me now?) 'Cause I can't tell Well maybe this is karma Maybe this is heartbreak And I don't know just how much more That I can take Well maybe this is karma I think I heard your heart break Like a stain on your carpet You can't get out And I know that we won't be the same I went out on the town With my best friends Tried to drink away the night There you were at the bar With your boyfriend I bet I can win this fight So take your best shot (Hold him steady) Take your best shot (are you ready now?) 'Cause I can't tell Well maybe this is karma Maybe this is heartbreak And I don't know just how much more That I can take Well maybe this is karma I think I heard your heart break Like a stain on your carpet You can't get out And I know that we won't be the same (I don't need you) I've got my friends (I don't need this) Well I've had enough of you now (I don't need you) I've got my friends (I don't need this) And I've had enough of you now Well maybe this is karma Maybe this is heartbreak Well maybe this is karma Maybe this is heartbreak And I don't know just how much more That I can take Maybe this is karma I think I heard your heart break Like a stain on your carpet You can't get out And I know that we won't be Like a stain on your carpet You can't get out And I know that we won't ever be the same

Just Listen 03:49
I'm not settling I'm not settling Wake up sweetheart The pages of our lives Won't write themselves We're too far Away from everything Away from ourselves The journeys that we have Play like movie screens We wash away From them Can we just make this last I've got twenty bucks somewhere And I'm about to let you in Just listen up Yeah just listen Take me far from here I'm freaking out in the worst ways I just want you here All that I ask of you is that you stay These words and melodies Will never be the same when you're away And all I want is When they're singing your song tonight Just listen I'm not settling I'm not settling x2 Remember all our times alone Staying up til five Talking on the phone I've got a grand proposition for you And I hope you take it (Yeah just take it) So dance your heart out Your words from your mouth Keep telling me to stay But even if they didn't I probably would've anyway Just listen up Yeah just listen Take me far from here I'm freaking out in the worst ways I just want you here All that I ask of you is that you stay These words and melodies Will never be the same when you're away And all I want is When they're singing your song tonight Just listen I've got twenty dollars And you've got your heart on my sleeve Take it from me I've got these problems But it's alright when you're with me Yeah take it from me I've got twenty dollars And a blanket in the back I 'll run away with you And we're never coming back Well I've got twenty dollars And tonight you're coming with me Take me far from here I'm freaking out in the worst ways I just want you here All that I ask of you is that you stay These words and melodies Will never be the same when you're away And all I want is When they're singing your song tonight Just listen I'm not settling I'm not settling Just listen I'm not settling I'm not settling Yeah just listen
