Broken Skin

Hey stranger
I can feel you close
Reach out to me
Show me what I’m in for

Hey stranger
You’ve left your world behind
Make me an offer
As you step into mine

Will you make me numb?
Or make me feel new sensations?
Will you set me free?
Or draw me to chains of addiction? 

You Can’t Stop Me

No more hiding behind plastic smiles
Like just another pretty face
In this time and age you’re too blind to see
That I’ve outgrown you through the chase

Let me be,
Let me be,
Let me be, all I am, and more…

Worst In Me

If you shout once, I’ll scream twice
Always much louder and in my high pitch voice
It gets on my nerve, what I become
Every time we talk, it just starts off as fun

All of my friends, have seen the change
They’ve tried to talk me out, but I stayed unhinged
Cos I lived for the love, blind as a bat
Couldn’t recognize myself when the love dried up

Not Anymore

Watch me run out the front door
No I’m not kidding this time
If you make a scene once more
I won’t blame it on the wine

You can lock me in, but I’ll wait
Take a chance when you’re asleep
Don’t try to reason, cos it’s too late
I ain’t the girl who weeps

Not anymore (3)
I’ve finally found my strength
So not anymore

Because of Me

Some people say god’s lent a helping hand
Some people swear by luck
What do they know about the sleepless nights I’ve spent?

Some people say life is has been too kind
Others say it’s just my destiny
But do they know the countless tears that I have shed

I'm Here

The cold storm blows
Over my heart, it snows
But it keeps me awake
Keeps me awake

The bells don’t ring
I cannot hear, the birds sing
But you’ve taught me to stay
You’ve taught me to stay

Share

Unclog my mind
Set adrift my soul
Inspire my heart
Uncover gold

Unlock my secrets
Embrace my tears
Download bad memories
Discover my fears

I Heart You

Saw you through the glasses
You got your sparkles on
I whispered into the air
But it never carried through

You slipped out of my preview / You slipped out of my view
Into the waiting car
What was I supposed to do?
Sit here and wait for you to come back?

You’re The One

You cheated me out of a lie
You stole my thunder and my apple pie
You won’t be forgotten till the end

You made me break my promises
You gave me lilies instead of roses
No, you won’t be forgotten till the end

Oh, I
Lied to myself
And I
Cried in my bed
I had the perfect life
But now
You’ve made me see
How good
My life could be
With you by my side

Look at what you’ve done
You made me realise, you’re the one, you’re the one
You made me realise, you’re the one, you’re the one

You tricked me into playing the fool
You pushed me into my own swimming pool
You won’t be forgotten till the end

You sang out of tune on the microphone
You wore shorts to the school prom
No, you won’t be forgotten till the end

Oh, I
Lied to myself
And I
Cried in my bed
I had the perfect life
But now
You’ve made me see
How good
My life could be
With you by my side

Look at what you’ve done
You made me realise, you’re the one, you’re the one
You made me realise, you’re the one, you’re the one

Look at what you’ve done
You made me realise, you’re the one, you’re the one
You made me realise, you’re the one, you’re the one

Valentine’s Day

Come, hold my hand now
Let’s make a swim for it
We will manage somehow

I know you’ve been so strong
While I’ve been so hard
We’ll set things right from wrong

I know all the stuff that’s going in your head
You know everything’s that’s going on in my mind
So, don’t be afraid… it’ll all get okay
Remember our first Valentine’s Day
Just remember our first Valentine’s Day
