Your Heart

I don’t wanna be your Summer lover,
Part-time Valentine.
But I get your hearts been broken one too many time.
The Atlantic keeps you distant, and at a distance too.
We’re 9 hours apart, with an ocean of feelings for you.
Common and let me in,
Cause I know that you want me too…
And I’ll tell you again,
That without a doubt you’re the one that I can’t live without.
You can tell me I’m a fool,
You can tear me apart,
But I gave you all I got,
I gave you my heart.
Gimme something to believe,
Gimme somewhere to start,
Common give me all you got,
Give me your heart.
Touch down New York City, filled with Butterflies.
Beneath the Empire State Is where my future lies.
Hauled up in East Manhattan, Hilton Suites, Room 1202.
I fell for you, I fell for you, I fell for you.
And i’d do it again,
Coz it’s the first i’ve felt so alive,
And when we do it again,
Let our sparks ignite,
And set alight those blue-green eyes.
I’m home and you’re in NYC, (Woah)
And i’ve never wanted anything quite like this,
So now set me free, (Woah)
You’ve got my heart, my everything.

You had platinum blonde hair,
Head to toe in tattoos,
In a tiny black dress,
And stiletto shoes.
Cupid got me good, while on your way out…
Of the Q train door. Yeah I felt the regret,
As I watched you light up your last cigarette.
5:13 last Tuesday as the sunset.
Posted on Sunday and I’m,
Hoping that one day we’ll be friends.
I like your face, I wanna take it out on a date.
Where are you now my missed connection?
A week’s gone by since I saw you there,
Looking January Jones meets a Hilton Heir.
As I watched you disappear below the stairwell.
I hope you reply though,
Coz I’m tagging it ‘yolo’ to my friends.
I like your face, I wanna take it out on a date.
Where are you now my missed connection?
I got nothing to lose, since my hearts been singing the blues.
Where are you now my missed connection?
Gimme just one chance to make or break it,
I’ll aim for the chest while I wear my heart on my sleeve.
Gimme one more chance to make or break it.
I think you’re great, so let’s date.
I like your face, I wanna take it out on a date.
Where are you now my missed connection?
Oh what a waste, my heart was yours to take, so you know.
Where are you now my missed connection?
It’s time I find another.

Burying Bones
04:00
|

Wake up I’m lonely right now I need to somehow
crawl out the hole I’ve been down.
The rainbow we’re on has no gold waiting below,
just thorns, with no signs to warn.
I won’t let you break my heart again,
I’ve made it too far, I’m through the mend.
I won’t let you break my heart again.
I won’t let you break - I won’t let you take - I gave you my all.
I woke up without you again, wondering when or how
I can turn things around.
You’re probably fine, settled down, own a horse bought a house to put a family in - a fairy tale so sickening.
You’ve been running around burying my bones all around - evidence.
As quiet as a mouse
scurrying inside me like a house you’re trying to tear down.
Sometimes the hardest part of letting go is learning how to live your life alone.
Sometimes I feel the better part of me was left inside of you, yeah I believe.

Beefeater

I woke up in London with a fire in my eyes,
To remain sane, remain sain.
Far from that island that set me alight,
Where my heart stays, heart stays.
And although I’m lonely, I’m relatively,
Happy, gladly.
I dumbed down my senses to start a new life,
It feels like I’m lacking something.
I don’t belong,
I don’t believe,
I don’t resolve,
I only grieve.
I don’t relate,
I don’t maintain
I don’t belong,
I only grieve.
This is the part where you pull me aside,
Concernedly. Concernedly.
Offering to help out, whilst rolling your eyes.
I’m fine thanks. Really.
They say it gets better, but twenty-fucking-years,
Of misery. Misery.
Is telling me different, I can’t help but feel;
I’m stupid or lacking something.
Why can’t I just be taken off the air?
If this is all I get then so be it.
When no one’s buying what I have sell,
Since stocks in bullshit fell.
And damaged goods are too hard to sell.

Via Pisacane
03:09

I made a wish in a wishing well,
And had regrets as the coin, it fell.
As it fell so low, I felt so low.
And next thing, you’re finding out,
What my little black hearts about,
As I let you go, as I let you go.
I wear your heart that I slayed,
On me like a stain,
A reminder of love gone bad.
I wore you down like the teeth,
You grind when you sleep,
I’m sorry I’m me.
My heart beats like a kicking drum,
Thinking back to what I’ve done…
How I let you down, yeah I let you down.
You deserve what I cannot give,
I made my bed, I’ll die alone in it.
And I feel so alone, I feel so alone.
(Down I go)
While looking out for number one.
I saw how selfish I’ve become. Yeah.
I must have left my better self in Chancery Lane.
At Pisacane, we remain.
Na na, nah nah nah nah nah.

Loverboy

I thought I’d like to get to know you.
But boy-oh-boy how I was wrong.
When I caught you going through my phone,
I knew that it was time to let you go – so long.
Next I know girl’s getting crazy,
Outside my home crying on her knees.
Stalking recent activities on my Instagram and Twitter feeds,
Then showing up at the places I need to be.
Girls we only met two weeks ago,
I think I kinda maybe need to let you know.
I don’t wanna be your boyfriend,
I don’t want you to be my girl. No.
I don’t want you to be my girlfriend,
I don’t want you to be in my world. Oh.
So quit the crazy and quit the ploy,
I don’t wanna be your loverboy.
I though I’d like to get to know you.
But girls-be-girls and now I regret;
The messing round and the pillow talk,
When I hadn’t even learnt your last name yet.
And now you’re call me disgusting,
And I’ll probably end up alone,
But I’m sure eventually the day will come,
You’ll see you’re acting ‘cray and you won’t blame me for not wanting to stay.
Girl we only met two weeks ago,
I think I kinda maybe need to let you go.
I hope I’ve seen the last of you.
Coz if I’m telling you the truth.
Inside that brain of yours a screw must have come loose.
I don’t wanna be your loverboy.

Why You So Like That?

Why you so like that?
You took my kit kat, and never gave it back.
Why you so like that?
Life was pretty good growing up in the ‘pore.
But what the fuck was everyone complaining for?
We worked fuckin’ hard, and took hit after hit.
And 10 years on we’re still treated like shit.
Fuck that.
Kit Kat.
Kit Kat.
We only ever want to have fun,
And from Commonwealth to Sembawang,
You can hear our songs being sung,
And now nobody wants to hear about a has-done,
A has-been,
Has-bun.
Why you so like that?
You took my kit kat, and never gave it back.
Why you so like.
Why are you so like.
Why you so like that?
