A Beautiful Mess- Jason Mraz

You've got the best of both worlds
You're the kind of girl who can take down a man,
And lift him back up again
You are strong but you're needy,
Humble but you're greedy
And based on your body language,
And shoddy cursive I've been reading
Your style is quite selective,
though your mind is rather reckless
Well I guess it just suggests
that this is just what happiness is
Hey, what a beautiful mess this is
It's like picking up trash in dresses
Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you write
Kind of turn themselves into knives
And don't mind my nerve you could call it fiction
But I like being submerged in your contradictions dear
'Cause here we are, here we are
Although you were biased I love your advice
Your comebacks they're quick
And probably have to do with your insecurities
There's no shame in being crazy,
Depending on how you take these
Words I'm paraphrasing this relationship we're staging
And what a beautiful mess, yes it is
It's like picking up trash in dresses
Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you say
Kind of turn themselves into blades
And the kind and courteous is a life I've heard
But it's nice to say that we played in the dirt
Cause here, here we are, Here we are
Here we are
We're still here
What a beautiful mess, this is
It's like taking a guess when the only answer is "Yes"
Through, timeless words and priceless pictures We'll fly like birds not of this earth
And tides they turn and hearts disfigure
But that's no concern when we're wounded together
And we, tore our dresses and stained our shirts
But its nice today. Oh the way it was so worth it.

Nineteen Stars- Meg and Dia

Don't tell me.
You're done for.
I don't need to hear.
You're done for.
You can tell me what you are running from.
I need you.
More than you need you.
I can see you're really really running.
May I ask you where you gonna run to?
And you think you're really, really funny.
Well I don't think you're funny, as you do.
We all feel like we're breaking sometime.
I won't let you go tonight.
Stay awake.
Stay awake survive.
I've got nineteen stars that I.
Gave your name.
Tonight.
I wanna scream.
Wanna scream your name.
Star light, star bright, can save.
You're my wish tonight.
Don't tell me, it doesn't matter
I'll tell you.
What matters.
Bare feet in the summer.
Open windows at night.
You think that no one needs you.
You have nothing to see through.
Well I need you.
Don't I count?
Lets fight.
Show me anger.
Fierce fists clutching onto air
Show me anything
Just show me you care

Hug Me- Meg and Dia

You hold me close naked, I don't feel a thing
Your zippers are the cherry, but I don't feel anything
Your mind is stranded down now, I am closing you in my arms
and i prefer overweight than plastic any day
Hug me 'til you drug me, honey, hug me anyway
Your eyes are dusty, dirt porn magazines
You're lazy, selfish, but you were raised that way
It's a whore that here was bred
I'll take your pants, you take my hair, and let us dance
And cheers to happy and depressed
Hug me 'til you drug me, honey, hug me
Drug me 'til you love me, honey, love me any...Wait. Wait
I swear I've seen that face before
It's the very face I fell for in the human race.
I can't lie, I was brainwashed to be honest
In this brave new world that slowly passes by
I'm a girl learning to act as planned
I was programed to be Catholic but I ran
I changed my race, I changed my name
I prayed to them, "Please, what is brave"
I am loyal because I was simply raised that way
By the way, I never really liked your hands on me
Never liked your ideas of what's beautiful or real or truly holy
And I must say, you've thrown your apathy away
Grown back into your diapers, will you die first,
Before you admit the truth.

The Camper Velourium II: Backend Of Forever- Coheed and Cambria

Rocked silent in a soft lullaby
panic stirred me awakened by a ringing phone in time
where and when would I see her?
Crazy were the words that scribbled out your mouth
I stuttered replacing your face to those words
where and when would I kill her?
I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this
I, I'll wish... to the bitter end of my day
Well, where were you?
So you had your turn and you made it work
now I'm the laughing stock of your joke
as crazy as it may seem I cried for you when you
told me to date all of the things that made you end up in my life
and I'll believe anything I have no luck with girls
I overheard that you were unhappy too
misleading toss into a relationship that makes no sense
over and out Connecticut
but you had your back turned there as you faded away
to the end of my day I found out
you weren't worth what I thought of you
what I thought of you
write this down in your diary you abuse
can we make plans can I just get through to you
is this weird...do I scare her?
I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this
I, I'll wish... that you could share the love you'd shared with others, with me
This isn't love so forever let it go...forever let it burn
This isn't love there on the backend of forever
I wish I would never hurt again

Imogen Heap- Useless

I am a mirror, with no reflection
I am a razor, without my blade
I am the daylight, when the moon shines no
Who will want to make my sandcastle that's already made
I feel so useless, do you
Speak to an ear deaf to my voice
Look through your fear, still blind to my way
I reach to hold you, but I don't feel you there, do you
Even realize I'm here am I just wasting away?
No wasting away
Living, inside you play
My dying prayer, sealed in a scream
Unwelcome, and a conscious dream
I am your whore, without a name
I climb to fall, to begin again, to begin again
I climb to fall, suffer, hatred, deceit and pain
Anger, regret, loving in vain
I am an arrow, with no direction
My life your tarot, my picture your fate
I'm your becoming, so ill always be nothing
If i ever break away from you that day forth, you'll be living
My hate
Oh God help his fate
I'll watch you, watch you suffocate.

Part of, Cute Without The 'E'- Taking Back Sunday

Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me.
Why can't I feel anything
from anyone other than you?
And all of this was all your fault.
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life.

Are There Giants Too, In The Dance? - Meg and Dia

You best be quick you’ve got to run.
They’re coming at you with their guns.
They’re chasing after with their jail bars.
Ha ha.
Whoever thought we’d fall so far?
You’ve got to learn to act like God.
You rule the world, you give the word.
And if someone should fall behind,
just let their suffering slip your mind.
Are there Giants too in the dance?
’Cause this is about life and life isn’t about death.
Help me escape from lonely choirs.
Which only hollow voices sing.
I wonder who decides who wins, (The judges of mind, art, and skin).
In which we nod in agreement.
Are there Giants too in the dance?
’Cause this is about life and life isn’t about death.
