You hustled in so quick with ease and brought our world down to it's knees You made a point to bend you made a point to shake you made a point to twist my limbs until they break You settled in real nicely I mistook you for a King So glittery and shiny bur ripping at the seam ooh all that glitters isn't gold and all thats mine ain't yours to hold You take anything that you can and leave me in the palm of your hand Play the Man who'll make big changes (you seem to break every promise that you make) I'll Play the girl who understands why why, why why do I let you You settled in real nicely your father showed you how to coward in your mansions and hide up in your ranches ooh all that glitters isn't gold and all thats mine ain't yours to hold You take anything that you can and leave me in the palm of your hand Play the Man who'll make big changes (you seem to break every promise that you make) I'll Play the girl who understands why why, why why do I let you

Let's open this up for conversation Cue the cards, roll the tape It's easy to fake I'm open to your criticism Call me a fool But don't let me be alone tonight Listless and nonsensical weightless no regrets we're on the brink we're not what you think Foolish and unethical drunk with the need to touch don't leave me your number I'll leave you to wonder I'm not easy to miss Lost in the motion I'm easy to take With a glass, or two I'm easy to like make you laugh I'm not easy to touch when the music's through I'm not easy to miss lost in the motion I'm not easy to take but you already knew I've forgotten you Give me a ring Send me a message Write it on the wall— I wish you'd cut me loose won't you cut me loose? Listless and nonsensical weightless no regrets we're on the brink we're not what you think Foolish and unethical drunk with the need to touch Leave me your number I'll leave you to wonder

Shades of grey Shades of you suffocates me I deny everything Learn to bite my words with breathing out Ooh in the light of day My logic says you'll kill me But in the darkness Your temple brings me to my knees (ooh bring me) The way you look at me makes me weak (ooh you know how to make me) I always let you in between (ooh you know how to bring me down) Your temple brings me to my knees Wicked eyes, compromise Wicked touch, paralyze me Loaded gun, pull the trigger Smoke me out, make me sicker Ooh in the light of day My logic says you'll kill me But in the darkness Your temple brings me to my knees (ooh bring me) The way you look at me makes me weak (ooh you know how to make me) I always let you in between (ooh you know how to bring me down) Your temple brings me to my knees

shadows dance like children on your wall space begins to grow each time we fall Darker this room gets each time she sets Needing you is all I need get Love me like you intended Give me all you got and all you wanna give where did you run to where did you go Do you think that you'll be back Heavy with my heart in yours shadows dance like stars burning so bright I begin to cry tears like diamonds rare, they hide like the sun in the night sky

hiding out in daylight it makes it easy to burn holding off until it's time won't make it easy to learn Life Cut the seams Divide it Love Paired in twos And hide it You Couldn’t be Without me Here I am And seconds move With dying youth Break the lifeline Hiding under history Break the lifeline Roots buried inside of me hiding out in daylight your skin is likely to burn holding off until it's time won't make it easy to learn Hiding out in daylight won't make it easy to ignore this Life images remembered Love lost before I had it You wondered how I'd feel with changes Here I am a savage with the eyes of someone who knows
