Tiny Little Flicker

I don't wanna sit back,
We've got no time to waste,
Gonna have a heart attack,
With that look on your face,
You said you needed something just to fix your old heart,
Because you got yourself a new one and just pulled it apart.
A tiny little flicker in the light bulb in the bathroom,
Looks like somethings coming down,
And I look up and I can see you crying,
Breaking down the walls you close the door,
And there's a breath escaping,
But you don't wanna let this go.
No.
I could see a clear signal from the message on my phone,
That said a tiny little flicker doesn't want to be alone,
She's hiding from the wind but she's still going strong,
And she doesn't want for you to go ahead and get it wrong.
But she slaps me in the face and it gets dark,
And there's a storm that's coming,
But I guess that she'll survive 'cause she holds her head above the water,
And I'll sink down to the bottom,
And swim back up,
'Cause I don't wanna let this go.
No.
We've got the whole world in our hands.
Come on baby give it a chance.

Do you want me to tell you the truth?
Or keep it easy and keep lying to you?
And tell you to your face that everything is a-ok?
'Cause I'm just the shrapnel at the bottom of the bag,
But you're the deal where the real money's at,
So please don't blame me for trying to make some change.
So don't speak,
We've got this under control,
'Cause we are,
Swimming in a sea of lost souls,
But we don't mind,
No we don't mind.
So what the hell are you doing man?
You ain't got nothing worth proving man,
You'll just amount to nothing,
Have you lost your goddamn mind?
There ain't nothing worth losing man,
You've got no points worth proving man,
You'll just amount to nothing,
And leave it all behind,
'Cause did you really think that you could break into heaven?
Did you really think that you could ever touch the stars?
'Cause you'll be strung down by your own little demons,
The fact of life is that we are who we are.

Lucy's got herself a gun and she's gonna shoot you up,
She's sick of all the haters trying to hang her off their cuff's,
She's gonna get her brother to come kick down your door,
Then you can't control her anymore.
Red light.
Timmy's got himself a beer and he's gonna piss it up,
He's sick and tired of working for the man at the top,
He spend's most of his days in the shop stacking fruit,
And delivering the diamonds to the men in the suit.
Red light.

Had the strangest dream and then woke up,
I dreamed that I had fallen asleep on the floor and,
Even though no one helped me up,
I didn't feel like I had to go through this alone.
'Cause they try to keep us away,
It's time to play all night and sleep all through the day,
And even though they try to silence what we wanna say,
They like to think we're asleep when we're really still awake.
(Stuck in the cloud)
You gotta pick yourself up of the floor babe,
'Cause it'd be a goddamn shame,
To live your life inside the bubble,
While there's still blood in your veins.
'Cause they try to keep us away,
It's time to play all night and sleep all through the day,
And even though they try to silence what we wanna say,
They like to think we're asleep when we're really still awake.

Well we only went and dropped the bomb didn't we?
And we ain't coming back,
And we're way too beyond "too-far-gone" aren't we?
And we ain't coming back,
And we're slowly turning into the thing that we hate,
And we ain't coming back,
But it feels fucking great,
And we ain't coming back.
'Cause I swear the light here gets brighter.
Yeah I swear the light here gets brighter.
So hang on,
You're meaning to tell me that we are born for the specific purpose of going to school so we can to work, work every day, retire and die?
No,
I could've sworn the light here gets brighter.
'Cause I swear the light here gets brighter.
Yeah I swear the light here gets brighter.

In Your Bed

Cut a hole in your birthday card,
Break the mold and open your arms,
'Cause we touch hands while fighting the hangovers,
But we are more than friends,
We are more than lovers,
In your bed.
So hold on like there's nothing to hold onto,
Just keep your eyes on me,
'Cause we are one with everything and everything is you,
But there's is no place I'd rather be,
Than in your bed.

Bloody Murder

They're running rabid like a dog on heat,
And it's hard to keep breathing,
As they chased us out the house and into the street,
But it's hard to carry on fleeing,
Away from here with you.
So come on baby set me free,
These fuckers tried to make a fool out of you and me,
But I can change this it was meant to be,
Just me and you girl,
Nobody can stop me.
'Cause they'll never hold me back,
And I'll never give up,
I'm going to keep on fighting,
Just to fuck things up,
I'll scream out bloody murder,
Until I can't speak,
But they'll never silence me.
So wake up,
We are a nuclear reaction.
'Cause they'll never hold me back,
And I'll never give up,
I'm going to keep on fighting,
Just to fuck things up,
I'll scream out bloody murder,
Until I can't speak,
But they'll never silence me.

Carpe Diem (Yourself)

She's tripping over her own jeans,
Like she doesn't really mind,
Where she ends up tonight,
Shes got glow-paint smeared on her cheek,
Screaming "You've got to live your life",
But as she's dancing on the neon square,
That lights her up like a pinball machine,
She can't stop looking at herself in the mirror,
And staring back at me.
And I said,
There's no easy way to say this but I can't survive this love.

Oh I wish you could see their face's,
When I tell them that we're still young,
They tell me that we're going crazy,
And it's time to move on,
It's like we're not allowed to be like children,
And we're expected just to switch it off,
But they look at us like we are the monsters,
For never growing up.
Because love,
We can stay like this forever,
No matter what they say,
They might try to hold you back,
But they can't take our good times away,
If we stay like this forever,
It doesn't matter what they do,
They might try to hold you back,
But the sun always shines on you.
Maybe it's 'cause money is power,
And power rules the world,
Maybe they're still feeling gutted,
That they have sold their souls,
It's like we're not allowed to be like children,
We're expected just to spread our wings and fly,
But there's nothing wrong with being immature,
Until the day we die.
Because love,
We can stay like this forever,
No matter what they say,
They might try to hold you back,
But they can't take our good times away,
If we stay like this forever,
It doesn't matter what they do,
They might try to hold you back,
But the sun always shines on you.

Ladies And Gentlemen

We've got bitching and fighting all over the place,
But with nothing left to say,
We've got rock stars getting their shit for free,
While the kids still have to pay,
We've got sipping on champagne in the sun,
While we watch somewhere get bombed,
And if we want to speak we'd rather write a Tweet,
Before we write the songs.
But it's okay,
The world ain't over yet,
We're floating in space,
It's alright,
We ain't got no regrets,
We're floating in space.
We knew it'd come to this,
Our favorite kind of kiss,
We always knew it would turn out this way,
It's the price that we pay.
But it's okay,
The world ain't over yet,
We're floating in space,
It's alright,
We ain't got no regrets,
We're floating in space.

The Finishing Touch

She was grace,
She had that look upon her face,
Big bold letters write "disgrace",
It was never easy,
But I was never one to consider the consequence of my nature,
But it was nice,
She'd entice me with the spice of the richest fruit's of life,
She made it so easy to break it down,
Stone by stone.
But I wanted you to know,
That I'll never let this go,
And I hope one day you'll see,
That you add the finishing touch to me.
'Cause I'd never speak,
We'd go play swings and hide-and-seek,
We'd stay in bed for a whole week,
But my words spelled out her dreams,
Like it's and easy mistake to make,
But you throw your bags on the floor,
I've never seen you cry before,
But she can outshine them all.
When I wanted you to know,
That I'll never let this go,
And I hope one day you'll see,
That you add the finishing touch to me.
And she told me that she could sing,
So sing away,
Sing away,
Sing away for me.
