Glass Heart

Verse One
I got these Ex's
No they weren't perfect but
They promised me that they would stay
So as another one fades
In time I recover from the heartaches
Then another girl makes her way.
Yes I tried every angle
Slowed down the pace
Doesn't matter which game I play
You're never gonna stay
Eventually you'll tell me that 'you love me
And not all the girls are the same'
Manipulating all my emotions
Blind me from the pain.
I don't know when you're gonna leave
Or the reason why you left me
I know I was here for you to keep
If it isn't you it's someone else
I know that seems hard to believe
I can love you with all that I have
So tell me, tell me baby..
Chorus
Didn't I treat you right?
Did you feel left behind?
All this time wasted
I was so wrong
but you're so right..
Verse Two:
Why did you stay so long?
You knew you were gonna leave
I got used to your affection
You even saw my heart on my sleeve
Maybe I did something to make you feel misplaced
But baby I miss you
How do I fill your space?
Maybe you'll see that what we had was exctacy
Maybe you'll realise what you have just isn't me
So I hope when you rest your head
In time you'll think of me
And wish you were in my sheets
And cry yourself to sleep
Chorus
Didn't I treat you right?
Did you feel left behind?
All this time's wasted
I was so wrong
but you're so right..

Hold Your Breath
03:46

The kind of girl who lives for the weekend
I know you're feeling alone,
but put those feelings on hold.
Go get your attention with your girls
Find a man who will ease those pains
downing shots at the bar
and you'll never have to pay
You're way past conversations then he'll fuck your pain away
you smile while it lasts
then he does his walk of shame.
Mascara tears on your pillow case
sambucca taste on your tongue ring
closure always seems to get away
you hold your breath that they'll be better days.
You say your resolutions every year you want to change
thinking about solutions but you've never upped your game
and your girls they live your lifestyle
there's no one else left to talk too
so you rise up for the weekend
those feelings only taunt you.
Mascara tears on your pillow case
sambucca taste on your tongue ring
closure always seems to get away
you hold your breath that they'll be better days.
Behind your chest there's a heart that beats
every second and it's black, and it's vexed
Between your ears he ain't telling you what you need to hear
I'm telling you baby Hold your breath
I'm taking requests, I know you're dreaming big
see it in your face you're feeling shit
jealous of the others receiving gifts.
so let me in you need rescuing
I can thicken up that patience that you let get thin
no more crying, let the love begin,
give you everything, you're imagining
hurting, bleeding, grieving,
have a stiff drink just to ease up the evening
I look into your eyes and I see that your screaming
I can be your angel for more than a weekend

Until We Bleed
04:26
|
|||
VERSE ONE:
All we do is blaze, fuck and drink, then I'm leaving
When the emotions run dry
We're screaming at each other.
There's passion in your arms,
There's passion when I'm gone
There's intimacy on your sheets
There's nothing from me
Chorus:
So we're
Bound to linger on
We drink the fatal drop
Then love until we bleed
Then fall apart in parts
Verse Two:
Pour out the shots it feels better when I'm twisted
And I'll be gone before you wake up
It's like I never existed
But you wont even notice the darkness
You want me when I'm heartless
And I'm not fit to be your man
And I'm addicted to this way
And as long as your tears keep falling
I'll know I'll stay in your brain
Chorus:
So we're
Bound to linger on
We drink the fatal drop
Then love until we bleed
Then fall apart in parts
Verse Three:
You look at me like you found it
Like love at first sight - astounded
And really you need to throw away the key
Turn your back on us
Never give in to my needs
See I'm wasting your time and I can't change
There's a better man who'll take you from your dark ways
I get a dose of Love when I'm enhanced
And when I'm like this you'll never feel apart
I'm playing with your heart it's a routine
I'll leave soon then I'll see your mood swing
Crying so loud as you fall to your knees
and i'll never understand why you love till you bleed
Chorus:
So we're
Bound to linger on
We drink the fatal drop
Then love until we bleed
Then fall apart in parts

Chasing Summer
04:44
|

Verse One:
Three out of four seasons..
Never has this feeling
Comes alive in the summer time
The other three aren't appealing
Confidence is on a mad ting..
Mini skirt, sun glasses
the sun guides / her actions
Ooh I love her little actions
Works a 9 to 5
She's out 5 to 9..
And at the weekend
She craves, she craves affection..
Sipping cidre in a pint glass
Lungs hot boxed with weed
She's laying on the sand
Laying beside me..
Chorus:
She's chasing summer..
Verse Two:
Autumn, winter..
I won't even be your spring
Though I feel you're the one
I won't let that fucking sink in.
put my hands on your tan lines
And all your other body parts
Barbecues on the beach,
Drink wine then we unwind
You're the perfect summer wifey
I can meet you every year,
And if you meet somebody new
Memories won't disappear
Sipping cider in a pint glass
Lungs hot boxed with weed
She's laying on the sand
Laying beside me..
Chorus:
She's chasing summer..
Rap:
Forgive me,
I know its not okay.
Locking fingers as we kiss
Until this season fades away.
Looking at your tinted lens
I'm seeing my reflection
But the smile on your face
Makes it hard for me to mention
That this /
Won't last,
But we're living for the now.
U dress from denim shorts
To sun dresses
and you feel proud?
You open up and tell me that the summer brings you out
then the alcohol kicks in and
You're working on your doubts.
Autumn, winter, spring,
Makes you feel so cold..
Valentines and christmas
Makes you feel all alone..
But when we're sun lounging
I would have never ever known,
'Cos you hide all your hurt
I guess the other season shows.. It
Then you spark up.. Yeah
Out comes the smoke.
Wind in your face
Your Troubles seem to go
U give me the attention
But its you that needs the freedom
Kissing on your feeling
Rolling back the weekends

Dear Ex
02:23
|

I don't mind I'll tell it exactly how it is
I been with some girls in my time
it's never felt so sick
one means good
one really means bad
and I gather up my emotions
write my feelings down on a pad
and I swear I only want a chick to grow old with
I swear it'll make my mother happy
dedicate most of my time
studio is where my home is
and I'll do whatever with her
like white wine and red roses
seperating the bitches
to those I call ladies, yeah..
I never said I was the man but
a man will support his girl
a woman would do the same
when you're saying the L word
the two can't be separated
everyday's a fucking puzzle
I hear you man I've said it too
'from now on I'm only looking out for me'
chilling with your boys in the club
like this is life
but every 7seconds looking left
to find mrs right
I know man..
but if she's your ex then why go backwards?
do you miss her or do you miss it?
because you knew when you was with her
it didn't feel so legit
amazing what emptiness can do to your own shit
If you're happy then be happy
a fling to a ring keep it real
your girl isn't going unnoticed
she'll stay if you're warm
keep your eyes fully focussed
though some just up and leave and their the ones that feel the closest
I dedicate this to all of my ex's
If only i knew then what I know now
I could have avoided all the troubles, cuddles and even kisses
but I got a screw missing
time is money, time is learning
about all you sexy women
individual but not that far apart
got a gun and you're aiming for our hearts
We love too fast
then we shatter in the dark
We love too fast
then we shatter in the dark
