Let’s go be alone
Where no one can see us, honey
Careful in that room
Those parasitic cameras, don’t they stop to stare at you?
Can’t love for us both
You’ve gotta live
And I gotta go
As long as it’s us two
Fuck being remembered
I think I was made for you
So why’d you wanna erase me?
Darling, valentine
You’ll always know where to find me
When you change your mind
I’d hate to picture someone with you
I lay down and start to cry
You won’t believe what just two months do
I’m older now, believe me
I adore you
So why’d you wanna erase me?
Darling, valentine
You’ll always know where to find me
When you change your mind
So why’d you wanna erase me?
Darling, valentine
Now I can’t hate you
I ruined me for you
Blame me if you need to
But I adore you.

On two
Feels like spring
All on my own
Guess the shit just makes you boring
Got money, I don’t care about sex
You knew how i’d take it
You brought her to flex.
Sucker for the pain
Huh, honey?
But you said you’d die
You wanna leave a stain
Like a relapse does
When you really tried
And damn, this time I really tried!
Moved on, but nothing feels true
Sometimes I hate her just for not being you
Post rehab i’ve been feeling so small
I miss your attention
I wish I could call
Sucker for the pain huh, honey?
But you said you’d die!
You wanna leave a stain forever
But you said you’d die
Said you would’ve died for me
Raise your voice to me
The second time I had to make myself believe I deserve it, I’m crazy
But don’t act like you’ve never met me
“I never should’ve hurt you, I’ve got the devil in me”
Sucker for the pain, huh honey?
But you said you’d die
You wanna leave a stain forever
But you said you’d die!
Said you would’ve died for me

When did you start seeing her?
Guess somebody finally tamed you
Never seen you look so sure
Sorrow snuck into our secret place
Drag me with you to nirvana baby take me all the way
Drinking just to taste her mouth
Got you drifting in and out
Mister death wants my baby now
Felt the crowd was wrong to claim you
Won’t they ever quiet down?
Someone’s daughter adorned in flames
Drag me with you to nirvana, baby
Take me all the way
Man enough to see this through
Man, I’m nothing without you
Thought i’d see her when i died
Filled the bath up with warm water
Nothing on the other side
Man enough to see this through
Or is it one more thing I won’t get to?
Can’t go out, i’m tethered to:
Another world where we’re together
Are you lost in it too?

The first time I met you I knew then
That afterwards there’d be no in between
We can sail the ocean blue or just lie down
You know how I love you
Nothing’s gonna stop me now
Nothing’s gonna stop me now
I wanna wake up early everyday
Just to be awake in the same world as you
I won’t ever hurt you
No more endless nights
Only the lightest blues
If anyone should stop me now...
Nothing’s gonna stop me now
I’m not going back

Forever (Sailing)

I might have made a stranger outta you
And I’m stranger too.
I know that’s not my perfume on you, Tiger
And we don’t have long
Doesn’t obsession just become me?
Don’t let em’ see, we don’t owe it to nobody.
No matter where we are
I love you from the city to the stars
But nothing stays as good as how it starts
You and I
Like a ship forever sailing
You and I
Everything we try is failing
Everything we do, everything we try
Time tends to pass and make a joke of things
But
Eleven months and still…
Some nights I reach for you like you’re beside me
You’re taking her home
Doesn’t obsession just become you?
You’re taking that tone
Icy cold, c’mon I loved you!
Whatever you decide
I’d chase you from the city to the sky
And lose myself for you a thousand times
You and I
(Like a ship forever sailing)
You and I
(Everything we try is failing)
Everything we do, everything we try
So much destruction
Look at what we did
That was so real
And you don’t just forget
(No more, everything is her)

You’ve got a way to you, original Madonna
Won’t make the rest just go away
You spent the money throwing 1’s at supermodels
Everybody wants to taste the wine
Line around the block at judgement time
And how could you deny them that?
Body and Blood
Lover’s curse
Divine Intervention was too much work
I don’t need absolution
It just hurts
We’re not really talking now
We’re not really talking now
I consecrate my life to kneeling at your altar
My second sin of seven being: wanting more
Could that have been the smell of roses, backseat lover?
Praying you’d fill my empty cup
Or cursing myself for even getting dressed up
Body and Blood
Lover’s curse
Divine intervention was too much work
I don’t need absolution
No! it just hurts
We’re not really talking now
Body and Blood
I’ll atone
Get to it now
Or we can fight on the phone
I Used to wanna get even
I’ll just get stoned
Bow to your divinity
Gonna wipe the dirt off me
Our love’s a sickness baby
I’m holding on tight
I don’t know why
I’ve come to hate my body
‘Cause now it’s not yours
Now it’s not mine
I don’t know why
I don’t know why
But we’re not really talking now

Woke up without why or how
Wasted asleep on the couch
Routine as it is, I can start everyday
Without all the messing around
Even with a job that keeps me moving
Most days I just wanna lie down
Sleep it away till’ it’s nothing and
Pull the blinds all the way down, down
Sunrise
Dead of night
With a comedown so early in the morning
I hate those long drives
‘Least we ended things nice
Summer’s gotta end sometimes
Oh, Mia.
Baby blue, I’m so behind
Can’t make sense of the faces in and out of my life
Whirling above our daily routines
Both buried in problems, baby, honestly.
Wish it’d been you the other night
Should’ve been you, but it’s alright
Feels like i’m losing my mind, baby blue
But i’d leave it behind if you want me to

You want it all, superstar
Jesus died just to save you
Walk me down Hollywood Boulevard
Get me high in the hotel room
You owe me
You own me
I could never hurt you my love
You know me
When it gets cold
We’ll move to Malibu
Where the drinks are hard
You make em’ go down smooth
You wanna make it hurt, superstar
When you take too much in the bathroom
You owe me
You own me
I could never hurt you my love
You know me
You owe me
You own me
Couldn’t even look at you straight on
Shining in your glory

One more drink ‘till
I can feel you
And when the party’s empty
We can slow dance in my room
Tried life without you
But you in that green sweater…
I could die if I had the guts
Puked it up, drank too much
Feed the flame forever
Automate me
and i’ll never find a love like this
Im free
But who was I to ever want like this?
You got so mean
Pouring out the Jack and consequence
When you’re with me
And who was I to ever want like this?
Blank lips, dark room
I pretend it’s you
Though, she kissed like she meant it...
It’s like i’m living and i’m past her
And it’s thirteen days after
But it still feels like i’m cheating
One more drink ‘till
I can lie beside you
Though all at once is better
Automate me
And I’ll never find another love like this
I’m free
But who was I to ever want like this?
You got so mean
Pouring out the Jack and consequence
When you’re with me
And who was I to ever want like this?
I guess I couldn’t keep her fire out
I guess I couldn’t keep her fire out
I’m like your dog
I’m like your dog
Only I know you’ll be sweet if I stay
It’s not enough
Conditional love
When i’m old and rotten you’ll be on your way
I guess I couldn’t keep her fire out
I guess I couldn’t keep her fire out
And childishly im lonely
When it’s time to clear out the party
Automate me

Isn’t it strange
The way it’s just over?
No late night calls
You’re not here to walk me to my door
Now I just love you more
Mia, don’t cry. I love you forever
But I gotta grow up now
No, I can’t keep holding onto you anymore
Mia, i’m still yours
Lost love so strange
And Heaven’s not real, babe
I wish that I could lay down next to you.
You’re fixing your hair on the way to his place off of Broadway and 9th
If you’re waking up slow together
And talking through the night
I’ll bet he feels so fucking light
Lost love so strange
And heaven’s not real, babe.
Well I wish that I could lay down next to you..
I wish that I could lay down next to you.
