2 dozen weeks I waited
I see the worst mistake was
I ever trusted you to love like me
Well I know.....you shouldn't let your love show
Skyscrapers and helicopters
Bruised hands and baby doctors
I did it all for you and not for me
I know....it was me who let it go
To my head
My heart is close to empty
Tied to the post where you left me
My friends were asking where I've been all week
Well it's strange....I don't even care what they might say
Do you believe we're equals?
I can't live my life in sequels
I need to know I need to know which one you pick
Is it the boyfriend, or the whip?
I don't want you saying that we're only friends
I can see there's something tho I can't pretend
You've got me under lock and key
Oh when you tie me up you say that ties you down
You say I move too fast, baby I can't slow down
You've got me under lock and key
Can't you see, don't you know
We're getting older?
First you're Grey, the next day, it's fucking over
Play the game, say you'll stay, now that's an order.
Play it back, play it back,
Brush of ya shoulder
We've got nothing but love to tide us over
Heart attacks, whips and straps, they make you colder
I don't want you saying that we're only friends
I can see there's something tho I can't pretend
You've got me under lock and key
Oh when you tie me up you say that ties you down
You say I move too fast, baby I can't slow down
You've got me under lock and key

I change like the weather
For worse or for better
And I have a cloud today
You're making me measure
And never to treasure
You're making it fade away
Oh, yeah it's true.
You said that if you loved me then you owned me too
Hey, don't be sad
All I ever think about is what we have
What can I do?
You know that I remain alive as long as I'm with you
The season is changing
Another mutation
Oh why do I have to ask?
You used to look through me
You used to consume me
Maybe we can still go back
Oh, yeah it's true.
You said that if you loved me then you owned me too
Hey, don't be sad
All I ever think about is what we have
What can I do?
You know that I remain alive as long as I'm with you

This Isn't Love

Say what you feel love.
Don't lie to me love.
I see you seeing her.
Your words are not enough.
You're giving me up, you're giving me up
You're running away, you make me sleep on the couch
You're giving me up, ya, you're giving me up
You don't know what love is about
You say this isn't love
It doesn't feel like nothing
I'm scrambled like an egg
I'm empty like this OJ
I'm headed out of town
You'll probably hang around
Your friend is coming down
You know I miss your sound
You say you think about him
When life has lost it's flavor
You still care for me but even I can see
Your needs will change your nature.
Oh will you C-H-E-A-T me
Or are we B-O-T-H guilty?
She's taking me there oh, she's taking me there
Into the pool, ya baby into the air
She's taking me there oh, she's taking me there
I can see what this is about
You say this isn't love
It doesn't feel like nothing.
She says it's possible
To be happy but tempted
You said you only fucked him once
In Paris on a bus
You'd like to try again
You say this isn't love
It doesn't feel like nothing

I'm Already Low

How long, can we keep it together?
Cuz right now, I feel lower than ever.
And it's not ok
Ok to feel afraid
Cuz I gave up my throne
When are you coming home?
We fell asleep and it all went wrong
So separately, can we carry on?
This city, jadey now that you're leaving
It's over whether or not you believe it
And it's not ok
Just give me yesterday
And all the plans we made
They got you throwin shade
The stars fell down and they broke the wall
Now I can't stand to fucking look at you at all.
It's 4am you said you made your decision
That you don't care much for the life you've been living
You disregard the goals and ultimate vision
You said yourself you got some lofty ambitions, well shit
I don't know what it was or what it is I didn't do
But all I know is that I never wanna be from you
I've never been alright with cold shoulders
But I ain't willing to lie to stay closer
And I don't have the words to say how much I'm missing you
So baby tell me just exactly what I'm supposed to do
I don't have to beg cuz you know
I'm already low
