Nothing 05:46
Wake up Drink your coffee Get in a cab, you're late, it's time to go I don't know Why I bother Hanging onto truths that I can't know So keep pushing on Keep pushing on If what you said was true There's nothing I can do 'cause I'm nothing Without you So come on Dry your eyes now We walked on the moon; get out of bed So keep pushing on Keep pushing on If what you said was true There's nothing I can do 'cause I'm nothing Without you You've been making a fool of me And there's nothing I can do I've been trying to start again But I'm nothing without you

Fool 03:18
When I first looked at you My whole world switched to black and white And as the color fades I wonder if you're worth the fight So cruel How you lied to me But it took me 'til now To realize I'm the fool For believing you So now I see that you're A technicolor fairytale And as my eyes adjust I see that I'm the one who failed So cruel How you lied to me But it took me 'til now To realize I'm the fool For believing you You can't hurt me no more But it took me 'til now To realize I'm the fool For believing you

Hostage 03:58
I know what you're used to That I can't refuse you You can't will this heart of mine to break When we were younger Our love was like hunger Felt like a risk we had to take You swore this was different Well how is it different? And tell me what difference does it make? Been holding me hostage for so long I'm ready to switch my side I feel like a ghost as I watch you pass by I can't keep this up for much longer I'm ready to cross the line But how many ways can you say that you're sorry For the things you can't undo She looks in the mirror And speaks; I don't hear her And everything feels made for TV Where things that are crazy Seem perfectly normal And everyone has someplace to be So maybe I'm dreaming My consciousness streaming But I'm not convinced this dreams for me Been holding me hostage for so long I'm ready to switch my side I feel like a ghost as I watch you pass by I can't keep this up for much longer I'm ready to cross the line But how many ways can you say that you're sorry For the things you can't undo

For You 05:39
This feeling spreading like a cancer And I can't seem to keep it down I've been looking for an answer A way to turn this thing around But you already knew You already knew You walk around like it's a riddle A secret you're afraid to say I'm not as stupid as I look girl I'm smart enough to walk away But you already knew You already knew You tried to be something you're not already You followed me somewhere you're not prepared to go And now I know I'll never write a decent melody for you So now we've put it on the table And I can act like I'm surprised But I'm addicted to the fable The innocence behind the lies But you already knew You already knew You tried to be something you're not already You followed me somewhere you're not prepared to go And now I know I'll never write a decent melody for you
5.
Waste 05:31
I just got home and read your note and I can't understand a single word you wrote. Like a hangman who forgets to bring the rope, I can't tell what I need from what I hope. Can't let this feeling go to waste, but I can only feel it when I see you face to face. And even though there's such a bitter aftertaste, no, I can't let this feeling go to waste. It feels like... I thought that chords and melodies would save me, but my demons always bring me to my knees. And the cure is so much worse than the disease. I can't go on pretending. So take my number of your phone and soon I'll fade away into a person you don't know. Another opportunity I've blown. But it won't be a waste. I can't let this feeling go to waste.
