Bed You Made

Its true to say when _ I took your name
But you would not pretended to blame
The way you’d say that “It’s all the same..”
.. But every move I’d make you’d shame
It's painful to remember, so I choose to forget,
The way you told me he was just your friend
But still my hope for you is all the same,
I hope you sleep well in the bed you made
I hope you sleep well in the bed you made
I could never _ fall apart _ like you would do
Cause I’ve discovered _ there is more _ to me than you
And was it better? _ all the times he fucked with you?..
My God.. _ I heard he hit you too
So come away and _ I’ll shout your name
But I could not pretend to blame
The way you’d say that “It’s all the same..”
.. But every move I’d make you’d shame
It's painful to remember, so I push out of mind,
The way you left me for some other guy
But still my hope for you is all the same,
I hope you sleep well in the bed you made
I hope you sleep well in the bed you made
I could never _ fall apart _ like you would do
Cause I’ve discovered _ there is more _ to me than you
And was it better? _ all the times he fucked with you?..
My God.. _ I heard he hit you too
Don’t want you calling _ drunk and late at night,
I don’t care if you’re sorry, I don’t wanna hear you cry
But still my hope for you is all the same
I hope you sleep well in the bed you made
I hope you sleep well in the bed you made

3 Mile Girls

Well you “3 mile Girls” all look the same _ a pretty picture, a different face
And I _ I guess it means the world to me _ when I see on my 7inch screen:
We got Ashely, Ivory,_ Ebony and Jane _
Mellissa and Alyssa _ and I’m feelin’ all the same
And I _ I guess it means the world to me _ when you say you wanna see me, ‘Baby..’
Well you “3 mile Girls” all say the same _ thing to me when I come across your name
And I _ I guess I mean alot to you _ and you can tell me what you wanna do
Because “everybody’s fake”, and everybody’s sayin’ _
And everybody’s wanting that feeling all the the way _ and I _
I guess I mean the world to you _ so you can tell me what you been through _ cause _
I can see you’re fine _ you really blow my mind too
I can see you try _ but it mean much more than teasing you _ cause _
You can take me _ bend and break me _ but it won’t change anything
I can see you try _ but you “3 mile Girls” ain't worth my time
Well you “3 miles Girls” all act the same _ when I tell you I ain’t gonna pay _ and I
_ shouldn’t be surprising you _ you know it’s what you wanna do _
Because everybody knows the price _ so won’t you take your own advice too
I swear _ it seems _ it’s some recurring dream _ so _
I can see you’re fine _ you’d really blow my mind too
I can see you try _ but it won’t take much more teasing you
You can take me _ bend and break me _ but it won’t change anything
I can see you try _ but you “3 mile Girls” ain't worth my time

More Today

Are you under the impression, _ that you’re not on my mind?
If it’s any consolation _ I know this isn’t right…
And those things we think, but barely speak are turning into fears that cut you deep,
But I could stand to understand your grief, _ but,
Don’t ask me why I love you, _ I don't know what I’ll say,
I’ll tell you you’re beautiful _ in every single way,
Don’t ask me why I love you, _ I don’t know what I’ll say,
_ Except that I love you more today
We’ll talk of resurrection, _ among your other arts,
But your moment of reflection _ has left you in the dark
And it’s been that way, and I can see how you're not afraid, it’s killing me,
I just think that we should take our leave, _ but,
Don’t ask me why I love you, _ I don't know what I’ll say,
I’ll tell you you’re beautiful _ in every single way,
Don’t ask me why I love you, _ I don’t know what I’ll say,
_ Except that I love you more today
Don’t ask me why I love you, _ I don't know what I’ll say,
I’ll tell you the same thing I said _ just yesterday,
Don’t ask me why I love you, _ I don’t know what I’ll say,
_ Except that I love you more today

Coming Home
03:58
|

Well I’ve found self-hate and “lesser-knowns” will burn out quick, but like to stick around
So I feel broke to pieces ‘cause I’ve been too far alone,
But now I know how it goes…
Big wheels keep comin’, I’m too far from home.
But now it’s cold like wine that’s broken minds as I’m beat, here, on my own,
So I’d go home to bed now, but I’ve got too far to go
Now I know…
In this song I pray to You, God, hear me now…
I’m unsure, broke-bottle, and on this floor. Now I’ll burn my fire, my desire, and I hope it keeps me warm.
And I know I’ve been somewhere and I came to far to go,
But now I know… and it goes…
“Black fire”, “backwater”, and “broken homes” are the passers-by, like exit signs, on your ever-winding road.
So I’d go home to bed now, but I’ve got too far to go
Now I know…
In this song I pray to You, I’m coming home…
I’m coming home, and now I’ve earned my fire, and my desire, and it shows to everyone I’ve ever known.
Work harder, drink water, and take it slow.
Don’t forget your fire, your one desire when you wake up on the floor of a home that you don’t know ‘cause youre so far from your own…
Now I know… and I assume I’ll see you soon, I’m coming home.
