You can say you've finally seen the light But I don't see it yet, so how do I forget Don't you whisper borrowed words When you know just how hard it hurts Baby, break it right Leave me on the healing side 'Cause it's not just love you're killing All you wasted and watered down I'm not able, I'm not willing To just lay this in the ground If I don't have a quiet place to run and hide Have mercy, leave me on the healing side Oh, the healing side Watch the blue folding into black And if I could I wouldn't give it back This I can't undo But I can make it through 'Cause it's not just love you're killing All you wasted and watered down I'm not able, I'm not willing To just lay this in the ground If I don't have a quiet place to run and hide Oh, have mercy, leave me on the healing side Maybe I needed too much Maybe not enough This would have been easy If it were all about us 'Cause it's not just love you're killing All you wasted and watered down I'm not able, I'm not willing To just lay this in the ground If I don't have a quite place to run and hide Oh, have mercy, leave me on the healing side You can say you're on the healing side You can say you've finally seen the light Oh, but I don't see it yet |

Now and then I confess you cross my mind
Now and then I guess I have a little too much time I've changed my way of thinking I've tried hard to separate what came too soon From what came too late I don't think about me in terms of you I don't think about you in terms of us I don't think about us in terms of love I don't think about then in terms of now I found a way to start again somehow I don't think about what we thought it was Oh, in terms of love Oh, in terms of love I'm countin' on heaven to understand I didn't mean to go and mess up all the plans Sometimes you know where you should go Before you know the way I'll bother with tomorrow Once I made it through today I don't think about me in terms of you I don't think about you in terms of us I don't think about us in terms of love I don't think about then in terms of now I found a way to start again somehow I don't think about what we thought it was Oh, in terms of love Mmmm, hummm, yeah I don't think about black in terms of grey Or revelations in the light of day I don't think about cold in terms of ice Or second chances happenin' twice I don't think about me in terms of you I don't think about you in terms of us I don't think about us in terms of love I don't think about then in terms of now I found a way to start again somehow I don't think about what we thought it was Oh, in terms of love (I don't think about me in terms of you) (I don't think about you in terms of us) In terms of love (I don't think about then in terms of now) (I found a way to start again somehow) Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah I don't think about us in terms of love |

Today I promise I'll never love you again
I swear I'll care as little as I can 'Cause I've become accustomed to wearin' nothin' But pink nail polish on my left hand So many valuable lessons I learned from you Like forgiveness and breakin' hearts too Now that you're a goner in your honor More of the silence is the least I can do Cut the lines Blow up a few bridges Trim the fat Trim the grass Clean out the fridge Then sweep up the mess Put on my Sunday best And burn down the house Burn down the house Toss an easy stride into this dance I call life And Burrrn, yeah I never did like your fantasy football friends I'll never have to watch Caddyshack again I finally started cookin' and if you're lookin' I'm walkin' my new dog in front of my new house Got a new job and the money's come in See you need a new man and a world and a new life Nothing's quite as right as a girl on the mend Cut the lines Blow up a few bridges Trim the fat Trim the grass Clean out the fridge Then sweep up the mess Put on my Sunday best And burn down the house Burn down the house Toss an easy stride into this dance I call life And Burn Yeah, yeah Oh, whoa, whoa Tearin' down old walls Puttin' up new ones Have a little fun it's wreckin' ball night Gotta little itchin' to get down in the kitchen With my tall drink of water and some dynamite Cut the lines Blow up a few bridges Trim the fat Trim the grass Clean out the fridge Then sweep up the mess Put on my Sunday best And burn down the house Burn down the house Toss an easy stride into this dance I call life And burn, burn, burn Baby, burn Ah, burn it up, yeah Don't know burn, burn Burn it, burn it, burn it up |

I live on caffeine, Camu
Eagles and Airplanes I decorate my lies with butterflies That glimmer in the shimmering rain They say you can't lose 'em all But I'll give it a shot I want more than enough Yeah, I want more I want more than enough When love is all I got The truth is so unkind But I'm good when I'm out of sight Best when I'm out of my mind And don't know what you'll find But I'm good when I'm out of sight Best when I'm outta my mind I'm afraid of fallin' upward I'm afraid of my own age I'm a paragon with an apron on And I'm beautiful on an empty page There layin' in the dresser drawer Is a rusted ravished heart And the piercing regrets Yeah, they pierce me All the piercing regrets And faults starts The truth is so unkind But I'm good when I'm out of sight Best when I'm out of my mind And don't know what you'll find But I'm good when I'm out of sight Best when I'm out of my mind I can be as strong as Morphine I can lay my head down where I kneel Sometimes I need a broken bone To remind me how to feel The truth is so unkind But I'm good when I'm out of sight Best when I'm out of my mind And don't know what you'll find But I'm good when I'm out of sight Best when I'm out of my mind Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah Nah, nah-nah, naah, nah-nah |

She doesn't know me by name
But I know everything about her She likes to work in her rose garden And vacation in New Hampshire She gets him every holiday And every Sunday afternoon But as she tucks his Paley's down I know she loves him like I do And I wanted to call her so many times But I never found the nerve She gets what I deserve Oooh, yeah It's not the way that I planned Just the right man, the wrong time Even the moments he's holdin' me I know he's not really mine When I appear into the windows of the home I'm torn apart I can't help but wonder Whatever happened to my heart Such an uninvited lesson I never meant to learn She gets what I deserve (Instrumental Interlude) I can't whitewash my excuses I can't cover up the stain I can't give back what I've taken I should be the one to bare the pain I just pray that God forgives me For what I've done to her She gets what I deserve She gets what I deserve |
