1. WEIGHTLESS

Manage me, I'm a mess
Turn a page, I'm a book
Half unread

I wanna be laughed at
Laughed with, just because

I wanna feel weightless
And that should be enough

But I'm stuck in this fucking rut
Waiting on a second hand pick me up
And I'm over, getting older

If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over, getting old

Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction
To everything I fear
Cause I've been going crazy I don't want to waste another minute here

Make believe that I impress
That every word
By design
Turns a head

I wanna feel reckless
I wanna live it up, just because

I wanna feel weightless
Cause that would be enough

If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over, getting old

Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction
To everything I fear
Cause I've been going crazy I don't want to waste another minute here

This could be all that I've waited for
(I've waited, I've waited for)
And this could be everything
I don't wanna dream anymore

Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year
And I've been going crazy
I'm stuck in here

Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year (it's gonna be my year)
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere (go nowhere)
And this is my reaction
To everything I fear (everything I fear)
Cause I've been going crazy I don't want to waste another minute here



2. BREAK YOUR LITTLE HEART

Wide awake, my mistake so predictable
You were fake, I was great nothing personal

I'm walking, who's laughing now?
(Who's laughing, who's laughing now?)
I'm wasted, wasting time
You talk for hours but you're wasting lines
A pretty face but the chase ain't worth the prize

I'm gonna break your little heart
Watch you take the fall
Laughing all the way to the hospital
'Cause there's nothing surgery can do
When I break your little heart in two
I'm gonna break your little heart in two

Party queen, cause a scene so ridiculous
Little dress, maybe less so conspicuous

You're falling, who's crashing now?
(Who's crashing, who's crashing now?)
I'm wasted, wasting time
I'm moving on but you're left behind
A pretty face but the chase ain't worth the prize

I'm gonna break your little heart
Watch you take the fall
Laughing all the way to the hospital
'Cause there's nothing surgery can do
I'm gonna break your little heart
Show you to the door sew yourself shut
Now you're begging for more
'Cause there's nothing surgery can do
When I break your little heart in two

Don't be so sentimental, no
This love was accidental, so
Give it up, this was never meant to be more than a memory for you

I'm gonna break your little heart
Watch you take the fall
Laughing all the way to the hospital
'Cause there's nothing surgery can do
(When I break your little heart in two)
I'm gonna break your little heart
Show you to the door sew yourself shut
Now you're begging for more
'Cause there's nothing surgery can do
When I break your little heart in two




3. DAMNED IF YOU DO YA

I fought it for a long time now,
While drowning in a river of denial.
I washed up, fixed up, picked up
All my broken things.

'Cause you left me police tape, chalk line,
Tequila shots in the dark scene of the crime.
Suburban living with a feeling
That I'm giving up everything for you.

Oh, oh, oh,
How was I supposed to know
That you were o-o-over me?
I think that I should go. (Go!)
And something's telling me to leave but I won't,
'Cause I'm damned if I do ya, damned if I don't.

It took a lot to take you home.
One stupid call and I end up alone.
You made up, dressed up, messed up
Plans I set in stone.

But you made me do when I don't like
Dancing in the alley with a street-rat night-life.
Can't keep living with a feeling
That I'm giving up everything for you.

Oh, oh, oh,
How was I supposed to know
That you were o-o-over me?
I think that I should go. (Go!)
And something's telling me to leave but I won't,
'Cause I'm damned if I do ya, damned if I...

Don't make a fool of myself
When you hang around.
When you're gone,
I'm a match that's burning out.
Could have been, should have done
What I said I was going to do,
(Said that I would do,)
But I never promised you.
(But I never promised you.)

Oh, oh, oh,
How was I supposed to know
That you were o-o-over me?
I think that I should go. (Go!)
Never took a fool to see the things that I won't,
'Cause I'm damned if I do ya, damned if I do ya.

Oh, oh, oh
('Cause you left me police tape, chalk line,)
How was I supposed to know
That you were o-o-over me?
(Tequila shots in the dark scene of the crime.)
I think that I should go.
Something's telling me to leave but I won't,
'Cause I'm damned if I do ya,
Damned if I d-d-d,
Damned if I do ya,
Damned if I don't.




4. LOST IN STEREO

Lost in stereo, lost in stereo
Lost in stereo, lost in stereo

She works for the weekend, mixtape of her favorite bands
Tearin' up the radio lost in the stereo sound

She's trouble in a tank top pretty little time bomb
Blowing up I'll take you down
Living in the radio lost in the stereo sound

She's dancing alone, I'm ready to go but she's so
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)
She's out of control, so beautiful
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)
And I've been waiting for so long but she'll never know
I'm losing hope 'cause she's so
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)

Shake down on a Saturday
Sit back gotta catch my breath
'Cause every time I see her I know she's gonna take it back somehow

Tattoos and a switchblade attitude
Snakebite heart with a bubblegum smile
Sex in stereo don't turn the radio down

She's dancing alone, I'm ready to go but she's so
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)
She's out of control, so beautiful
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)
And I've been waiting for so long but she'll never know
I'm losing hope 'cause she's so
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)

And I'm just like cellophane 'cause she sees right through me
I know she's glitter and gold
And that's just the price I pay when I don't even know her name
She's slipping away

She works for the weekend, mixtape of her favorite bands
Tearin' up the radio lost in the stereo sound

She's dancing alone, I'm ready to go but she's so
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)
She's out of control, so beautiful
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)
And I've been waiting for so long but she'll never know
I'm losing hope 'Cause she's so
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)

She's dancing alone, I'm ready to go but she's so
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)
She's out of control, so beautiful
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)
And I've been waiting for so long but she'll never know
I'm losing hope 'cause she's so
(Lost in stereo, lost in stereo)




5. STELLA

3pm on my feet and staggering
Through misplaced words and a sinking feeling
I got carried away
Sick, Sick of sleeping on the floor
Another night another score
I'm jaded, bottles breaking

You're only happy when I'm wasted
I point my finger but I just can't place it
Feels like I'm falling in love
When I'm falling to the bathroom floor
I remember how you tasted
I've had you so many times- lets face it
Feels like I'm falling in love alone
Stella would you take me home?
Stella would you take me home?

2am I'm on a blackout binge again (ha ha!)
You know I don't need sleep
And I lost my keys,
But I've got so many friends
And they keep, keep me coming back for more
Another night another score
I'm faded, bottles breaking

You're only happy when I'm wasted
I point my finger but I just can't place it
Feels like I'm falling in love
When I'm falling to the bathroom floor
I remember how you tasted
I've had you so many times- lets face it
Feels like I'm falling in love alone
Stella would you take me home?

One more reason I should never have met you
Just another reason I could never forget you
Down we go, the rooms spinning outta control
Losing myself in a chemical moment
The night life's taking it's toll
That's just the way it goes
Come on, Stella would you take me home?

You're only happy when I'm wasted
I point my finger but I just can't place it
Feels like I'm falling in love alone
Stella would you take me home?

You're only happy when I'm wasted
I point my finger but I just can't place it
Feels like I'm falling in love
When I'm falling to the bathroom floor
I remember how you tasted
I've had you so many times- lets face it
Feels like I'm falling in love alone
Stella would you take me home?

You're only happy when I'm wasted
I point my finger but I just can't place it
Feels like I'm falling in love
When I'm falling to the bathroom floor
I remember how you tasted
I've had you so many times- lets face it
Feels like I'm falling in love alone
[Fade out]



6. SICK LITTLE GAMES

Oh my God, I'm such a terrible mess.
I'm turned on by the tabloids, you would never have guessed,
That I'm a sucker for their gossip, man I take it too far.
I bottle up my Hollywood, and watch them name their kids after cars.

I'm finding me out,
I'm having my doubts,
I'm losing the best of me.

We're all part of the same, sick little games,
And I need a get-away (get away)
I'm wasting my days, I throw them away,
Losing it all on these sick little games.

Fell in love, she was the friend of a sister,
Of somebody famous - at least for a day.
Expensive habits and a taste for the town,
Had me chasing down red carpets, and watching all my friends slip away,

They're finding me out,
I'm having my doubts,
I'm losing the best of me.
Dressed up as myself, to live in the shadow, of who I'm supposed to be.

We're all part of the same, sick little games,
And I need a get-away (get away)
I'm wasting my days, I throw them away,
Losing it all on these sick little games.

If I play my cards right I can make the big time,
I could be a reason to stare.
Caught up in the spotlight, shaking from the stage fright,
How did I end up here?

We're all part of the same, sick little games,
And I need a get-away (get away)

We're all part of the same, sick little games,
And I need a get-away (get away)
I'm wasting my days, I throw them away,
Losing it all on these sick little games.

We're all part of the same, sick little games,
And I need a get-away (get away)




7. HELLO BROOKLYN

This city, so pretty.
Under moonlit skies we'll be hanging like a cigarette.
So stunning, start running.
Tonight's like a knife would you cut me with your kiss?

I bleed, red lips, you're unbelievable.
Can't miss this chance to take you out,
Here's my invitation.

Hello, Brooklyn! Hey, LA!
Take the streets all night 'cause we sleep all day.
When the world comes crashing down, who's ready to party?
Hello, Brooklyn! Hey, LA!
Coast to coast, I'll take you down in flames.
Let the good times roll, we can let go.
Everybody knows there's a party at the end of the world.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh.

This city was your city.
Heels on the sidewalk beggin' for a back-beat.
Don't worry, I fight dirty.
Tonight's like a right hook, knock you off your feet.

I'll be yours truly unbelievable.
Can't miss this chance to take you out,
Here's your invitation.

Hello, Brooklyn! Hey, LA!
Take the streets all night 'cause we sleep all day.
When the world comes crashing down, who's ready to party?
Hello, Brooklyn! Hey, LA!
Coast to coast, I'll take you down in flames.
Let the good times roll, we can let go.
Everybody knows there's a party at the end of the world.

Kiss it all goodbye.
Tonight you've never been more alive.
(You're so alive.)
You're not afraid to die,
And I can see it in your eyes,
Your eyes.

Hello, Brooklyn! Hey, LA!
Take the streets all night 'cause we sleep all day.
When the world comes crashing down, who's ready to party?
Hello, Brooklyn! Hey, LA!
Coast to coast, I'll take you down in flames.
Let the good times roll, we can let go.
Everybody knows there's a party at the end of the world.

London, Tokyo, Boston, Frisco,
DC, Chicago, Baltimore, Toronto,
(There's a party at the end of the world)
Memphis, Rio, Dublin, Mexico,
Paris, here we go!
Everybody knows there's a party at the end of the world.



8. WALLS

Hey there it's good to see you again,
It never felt right calling this "just friends".
I'm happy, if you're happy, with yourself.

Take off your shirt, your shoes,
Those skinny jeans I bought for you.
We're diving in, there's nothing left to lose.

I'm gonna break down these walls, (down these walls) I built around myself.
I wanna fall so in love (so in love), with you, and no one else,
Could ever mean half as much, to me as you do now.
Together we'll move on, just don't turn around,
Let the walls break down.

I used to wear you like a ball and chain,
I'd run and hide at the call of my name.
It was obvious you were too much for me.
Oblivious, I was young and horny.

In retrospect, I wouldn't do it again.
Stop talking shit to every one of your friends
I'm not the same boy you knew back then...

'Cause I can break down these walls, I built around myself.
I wanna fall so in love, with you, and no one else,
Could ever mean half as much, to me as you do now.
Together we'll move on, just don't turn around,
Let the walls break

I can't breathe, my body's shaking.
You've got a way with the way you take me,
'Cause you break me down,
You know you break me down...

I'm gonna break down these walls, (down these walls) I built around myself.
I wanna fall so in love, (so in love) with you, and no one else,
Could ever mean half as much, to me as you do now.
Together we'll move on, just don't turn around,
Let the walls break down.

Break down these walls, I built around myself.
Let the walls break down. (break down these walls)
'Cause you break me down, (cause you break me down, cause you break me down)
Let the walls break down.



9. TOO MUCH

I admit, I miss seeing your face babe, (seeing your face babe)
And being alone is starting to take its toll, (toll)
I'm cold and it's getting old, (getting old)
I admit, (I admit) I should have made some changes. (changes)
We were so smothered in love,
We didn't have a chance to come up for air (no fair)

What a waste, where did the time go?
Where did our minds go? I don't know.
What's this place? Where did our home go?
We won't know, I don't know.

Too much of anything is too much,
Too much love can be too much,
We had too much time, too much us,
So we fought like tomorrow was promised
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Much, much too much

I admit, I'm still watching the days go by, (watching the days go by)
And sleeping alone is starting to break me down. (down)
It's cold, but I should have known. (should have known)
I admit, (I admit) I made a few mistakes, babe, (babe [x3])
We were so caught up in love,
We didn't have a chance to come up for air...

What a waste, where did the time go?
Where did our minds go? I don't know.
What's this place? Where did my heart go?
We'll never know, I'll never know...

Too much of anything is too much,
Too much love can be too much,
We had too much time, too much us,
So we fought like tomorrow was promised
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Much, much too much

I need to find a reason to feel,
Like everything was meant to be let go,
Take it slow, 'cause I can't be on my own.

Too much of anything is too much, (it's just too much)
Too much love can be too much, (it's just too...)
We had too much time, too much us,
So we fought like tomorrow was promised
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Much, much too much




10. KEEP THE CHANGE, YOU FILTHY ANIMAL

Are you having trouble finding sleep at night,
Or does your lack of conscience tell you every-thing's alright,
I trust your good intentions, that you're watching over friends,
But you must think that I"m crazy, if I don't see through that grin.

So tell me what your best friend knows, that I don't know.
Tell me why you talk me down wherever you go.
You're a saint, you're a queen,
And I'm just another boy without a crown.
Tell me why you sell me out, everywhere you go.
I just want to know what your best friend knows. (what your best friend knows)

So vindictive, you'll say anything you like.
The smile you fake, the steps you take,
You know you never could get it right.
And talk is cheap so make believe, your secrets find the grave,
It's too late, you gave up your last chance to walk away.

So tell me what your best friend knows, that I don't know.
Tell me why you talk me down wherever you go.
You're a saint, you're a queen,
And I'm just another boy without a crown.
Tell me why you sell me out, everywhere you go.
I just want to know what your best friend knows.

You stand a little too tall, say a little too much,
You're gonna bite that know-it-all tongue.
You tried a little too hard, now I'm calling that bluff,
Big plans are coming undone.
That's just typical, you're so cynical, couldn't have me.
I didn't want you (you set yourself up to lose),
You're selling me out, to the girl I can't afford to lose.

You stand a little too tall, say a little too much,
You're gonna bite that know-it-all tongue.
You tried a little too hard, now I'm calling that bluff,
big plans are coming undone.
That's just typical, you're so cynical, couldn't have me.
I didn't want you, you set yourself up to lose.

So tell me what your best friend knows, that I don't know.
Tell me why you talk me down (talk me down) wherever you go.
You're a saint, you're a queen,
And I'm just another boy without a crown.
Tell me why you sell me out (sell me out), everywhere you go.
I just want to know what your best friend knows.

What your best friend knows,
I'm never gonna let this go, (what your best friend knows)
What your best friend knows.



11. A PARTY SONG (THE WALK OF SHAME)

I took a walk for the very first time on the dark side of the dance floor,
Lit a match just to heat things up but I got more than I bargained for;

Mixed drinks, mixed feelings of elation,
I should have known it was a one night invitation.

Don't sweat it, forget it, everything is a-ok.
Just let it, go then its, off to find another face,
I make you come just to watch you leave,
You walk around with my heart on your sleeve.
Don't sweat it, it's over now, our time ran out.

I took an oath, but I'm giving it up, you didn't have to see things my way.
Nothing more than a casual fuck - isn't that just how we operate.

Let's drink to feelings of temptation
You and I, we're an over-night sensation.

Don't sweat it, forget it, everything is a-ok.
Just let it, go then its, off to find another face,
I make you come just to watch you leave,
I walk around with your heart on my sleeve.
Don't sweat it, it's over now, our time ran...

Outside, the brake lights started to dim,
I feel the tension that's been pulling us in.
And then we do it again, so we can feel alright.
Falling in love for the night.

Don't sweat it, forget it, everything is a-ok.
Just let it, go then its, off to find another face,
I make you come just to watch you leave,
You walk around with my heart on your sleeve.
Don't sweat it, it's over now, our time ran out.
Our time ran out,
Our time ran out,
Our time ran out.



12. THERAPY

My ship went down in a sea of sound.
When I woke up alone, I had everything;
A handful of moments I wished I could change,
And a tongue like a nightmare that cut like a blade.
In a city of fools, I was careful and cool,
But they tore me apart like a hurricane.
A handful of moments I wished I could change,
But I was carried away.

Give me therapy, I'm a walking travesty,
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy, you were never a friend to me,
And you can keep all your misery.

My lungs gave out as I faced the crowd.
I think that keeping this up could be dangerous.
I'm flesh and bone, I'm a rolling stone,
And the experts say I'm delirious.

Give me therapy, I'm a walking travesty,
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy, you were never a friend to me,
You can take back your misery.

Arrogant boy, love yourself so no one has to.
They're better off without you.
(They're better off without you.)
Arrogant boy, cause a scene like you're supposed to.
They'll fall asleep without you.
You're lucky if your memory remains.

Give me therapy, I'm a walking travesty,
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy, you were never a friend to me,
You can take back your misery.

Therapy, I'm a walking travesty,
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy, you were never a friend to me,
You can choke on your misery.



13. POISON

I've got a house in the back of my head
But I can't find a permanent resident
'Cause the market's down
And the area's not so good these days

I've got a watch but I don't have time
I've got a road and it leads to decadence
But a dead end sign waits down the line
I leave my footprints for the evidence

So take my life, I'll hand it to you
And you can try on my clothes
But you can't fill these shoes
On a silver platter your wish came true
So your heart of gold turned platinum
You can take my life (oh)
But you can't take it with you

More long days and fleeting nights
I tell them, "Wake me under flashing lights"
'Cause I'm a brand name bought and sold
(Sold, sold, sold)
They say a face for fame is a crying shame
Because to face the crowd is to play their game
And I can play a little too rough
Now and again (every now and again)

You drank the poison and I let you in

So take my life, I'll hand it to you
And you can try on my clothes
But you can't fill these shoes
On a silver platter your wish came true
So your heart of gold turned platinum
You can take my life (oh)
But you can't take it with you

You drank the poison and I, I let you in
Would you trade that heart of gold for a minute in my skin?
You drank the poison and I, I let you in
Would you trade that heart of gold for a minute in my skin?

So take my life, I'll hand it to you
And you can try on my clothes
But you can't fill these shoes
On a silver platter your wish came true
So your heart of gold turned platinum
You can take my life (oh)
But you can't take it with you
