it's been 1,2,3,6,7,8 months or so
i'm like a painting in a frame buckled into the gallery walls waiting
for you to walk right in, close enough to see but you just can't touch
cause your eyes will see my colors, hues, & shadows & if i'm your money's worth
a few damages in my corners, you say i just don't match your bedroom walls
i say there's the good and bad in everyone but my heart really is a work of art
you'd see it if you were framed onto the wall right next to me
cause' baby i can't help but to comply
to your swirls of emerald carolina blue eyes
cause i love what i see
but it's just my name i wanna feel you breathe
cause' to love you from miles apart it's really starting to break my heart
baby i don't sleep no more so that I won't have to dream, don't want to see you behind my blanket flesh in my arms and next to me
i'm counting down the days but I don't know what i'm even counting for
but I know it's the time remaining til someone else sees how amazing you are
and I never thought I could lose you
and I refuse to be bruised by this
so I'll take the miles and walk away and
wish you the best, I wish you the best on your way
away from me
i tremble and i shake trying to refrain from the
thump thump thump you put my heart through babe
no no no no no you don't understand that you got me through grayest nights and days
I'm burning like a bullet in a barrel
with your finger on the trigger eager to bid farewell to my blues
oooo every time you never fail to
is this nothing to you cause this is something to me
cause the moment you release a verse or two i'm glued that's nothing new
your voice rings through my ears
and throws good tingles down my spine
you fill the empty canvasses behind my eyes and that's why all i wanna do
is turn they're heads like you do
let the music seduce me like it did you
cause' baby i can't help but to comply
to your swirls of emerald carolina blue eyes
cause i love what i see
but it's just my name i wanna feel you breathe
cause' to love you from miles apart it's really starting to break my heart
baby i don't sleep no more so that I won't have to dream, don't want to see you behind my blanket flesh in my arms and next to me
i'm counting down the days but I don't know what i'm even counting for
but I know it's the time remaining til someone else sees how amazing you are
and I never thought I could lose you
and I refuse to be bruised by this
so I'll take the miles and walk away and
wish you the best, I wish you the best on your way
away from me
I wish you were here
but you're not
so leave me be
leave me be

Fumbled
03:38
|

I stockpile all my last thoughts onto a body laid beside me on my mattress
and this bedroom floor couldn't find you a way back to me and back to the bliss
You spotlit all my name in all your phrases
I couldn't thank you for all your praises
but you control just how this night would mend with your hand gripped always behind my neck
and the other in between the spaces of my fingers
You create the light in my eyes and how i fit perfectly in your arms
but am I deserving of?
do I deserve your love?
can I ride with you?
can I die with you?
how can I plan on forever when my forever didn't plan on you?
my eyes are a bit more wide
and my loves a bit more bonafide
cause when I catch walking away
I see you drag my heart on the floor right behind you
and NO it won't do
when will my heart be through with doubting you
are the one for me cause you're the one for me
cause my heart is working so much harder
when you love me like a fire
I can't get enough of your desire
I'm longing for a liar
to tell me you're too good to be true
cause baby I'm scared as hell to be...with you.

For Your Eyes Only
04:48
|

no one needs to know how tight I hold you at night
Could ya lay your head on my stomach just to hear
how i twist and turn into knots only when you come near
I feel the buckle of my knees tumbling over my feet
you make the damsel in me
see you're leaving me weak
you give my hair to the wind
you hold me right in the dark
you be my breath my light
you hold me tight in the dark
mmmm
this is the moment I let you inside of my heart
Brick by brick i stacked all the lies and the heartbreaks
the taller it grows
the harder I portray
oh don't you know
I'm so damn hurt
I'm so damn tired of being hurt by them
please don't turn your promises
into memories and disappointments
you hold my hand in the dark
you managed to take every brick down
one by one
so this is me
for your eyes only
for your eyes only
so take my heart as proof
this is myself giving myself over to you
this is moment I let you inside of my heart
so don't break it
I clench my teeth
close my eyes
keep my toes curled in
ball my hands into fists
stumble over words
that are stuck
to the tip of my tongue
can I make you
can I make you mine?
this is for you eyes only
this is for you eyes only
i'm giving it all to you
for you to see
this is for your eyes only.

TREAT HER RIGHT
02:00
|

Knew this chic
who was borderline twenty-two
bout this time
she was grown and finally grew
the courage to say to you
that she's
yo she's a woman
now let me tell you bout her story
bout her beautiful struggle
see she aint got no more time to be tricked and jived
by suckas like you
yeah you punk yeah i'm looking at you
thinkin bout me yeah i'm thinkin bout you too
so you better treat her right
or you'll be kickin where the gallows hang tight
said you better treat her right
she paid triple time on heartbreak
she's got purpose in her walk
and she won't hesitate to walk all over you
you better treat her right
she don't need your lovin
cause her music does her good every day and every night
ooo it does her sooo right
she used to give her heart to wild things
childish dreams got stuck at sea
curiosity lacks discovery she
lived another life in another town
to live a life she could write about
her heart is a wild thing
you better treat her right
or you'll be kickin where the gallows hang tight
i said you better treat her right
TREAT HER RIGHT!

Tango of Souls
03:51
|

When we dance our dance
when we sway in stance
oh don't you know
I could melt in your arms
oh baby don't you dare
let me go
I'm so lost I need your soul
with mine
When we dance real slow
when ya dip me down low
slide your fingers
down my frame
like you'll never be the same
I'm the one to blame
why your tongue twirls
around my name
you're a wild decay of all my fears
the strongest hunger my heart has ever endeared
When we dance
There's no one here
The world it bends
to bring us near
don't you see
This ain't no ordinary dance
this is god's work at last
a tango of our souls
a tango of our souls
consuming all that we've longed to know
A tango of our souls
When your fingers sink into my back
lips trace down my neck
my eyes roll to the back of mind
I'm so lost
I need your soul
with mine
when we dance
there's no one here
the world it bends to bring us near
don't you know this ain't no ordinary dance
this is gods work at last
a tango of our souls
a tango of our souls
consuming all that we've waited to know
a tango of our souls

I breathe the reasons
and I eat all the answers
and I live all these questions
and it's only all because of you
I flirt the pros
I fuck all the cons
and I love these decisions
and it's only all because of you
and I know this wasn't written in the stars
or in the black ink between your pages
what does it take, what does it take to always get your way?
cause i keep keep trying to figure you out
cause it's something in the way
your flesh your flaws your bones and all
i'm so crazed so save me
Baby you're a mouthful
I spit you out too proud
but what does it take?
to always get your way?
and I know this wasn't written in the stars
or in the black ink between your pages
what does it take, what does it take to always get your way?
cause i keep keep trying to figure you out
cause it's something in the way
your flesh your flaws your bones and all
i'm so crazed so save me

I didn't know what to do for so long
been thinking bout you bad since January
I'm still sitting here alone
We shoulda did this already
maybe I'll email you today
hope you haven't forgot about me
cause I just wanna let you know that without you
I get lonely
Baby
I just can't explain how I feel
could I take your time and show you?
no one needs to know what I'd do for you when I get lonely
Take me to another place where I'll be
Where I'll be face to face
just you and me
with no rules
just like you I get lonely too
I'm so ready to put down on you
I ain't got a love to call steady
I just wanna be your lady
and find the comfort in your heart maybe
I hope I'm not comin off so wrong
cause' too many ex's still love me
but you know that I do what I gotta do
still like you I get lonely
I get lonely
Baby
I just can't explain how I feel
could I take your time and show you?
no one needs to know what I'd do for you when I get lonely
Take me to another place where I'll be
Where I'll be face to face
just you and me
with no rules
just like you I get lonely too
