for everything that you are
I wanna suffocate
and everything that you've got
it's all exaggerated
so whatcha say?
so whatcha say?
so whatcha say?
and all the girls back home
they wanna touch your skin
and everything that you've known is
so whatcha say?
so whatcha say?
so whatcha say?
it's cool, baby
one day you'll see the sun
and everything will go on

Trapped In A Box

Trapped in a box I’ll wait
For you to come
And save me from myself
It’s such a stupid game
The one we play
We’ll both die either way
Yeah
Oh no
Trapped in a box by myself
Leave me here, to rot
By myself
My life is make believe
Filled with butterflies
And people who treat me right
No sign of daylight
I’ll meet my fate
Underneath a traffic light
Yeah
Oh no
Trapped in a box by myself
Leave me here, to rot
By myself
Trapped in a box by myself
Leave me here, to rot
By myself

stella likes to read right after school
always told that made her look uncool
deep within her heart, there's something you don't know
she'll turn out to be so valuable
stella
light me up
stella
light me up
light me
in the city with her red lips drawn
she storms the sidewalk with her t-shirt on
holding hands oh with the one she loves
it's everything she's ever dreamed of
stella
light me up
stella
light me up
light me

don't slut shame me
or call me baby
for what I'm wearing
quit staring
I just wanna work
and make money
without you touching me
objectifying me
and that's another thing
why am i the freak?
for touching myself
i don't need your help
it's my body
my property
you think i asked for it?
you think i wanted it?

Cheap Bouquet

Why don’t you make up your mind?
Don’t make me waste my time
Waiting alone here for you
To tell me that you wanna make things right
Rip all the skin from my bones
And make my house your home
I think I’ll love you again
But you better make it right, yeah you better make it right
It’s not fair
Living in your cheap bouquet
If it makes a difference to you
I think I’ve lost my mind
Playing Russian roulette with someone that’s got the cheating eye
As cheesy as this seems
You mean nothing to me
I think I’ll love you again
But you better make it right, yeah you better make it right
It’s not fair
Living in your cheap bouquet
It’s not fair
Living in your cheap bouquet

A Forest (Cover)

Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl
If you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes
I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Into the trees
Into the trees
Suddenly I stop
But I know it's too late
I'm lost in a forest
All alone
The girl was never there
It's always the same
I'm running towards nothing
Again and again and again and again

Head On Fire

Head on fire:
Pick me up and spin me ‘round
I don’t wanna hide anymore
They’re coming after me and you cause they don’t give a fuck where we go
Don't tell me that it's over now
Does anybody care anymore?
The kids are scared of being here
But thank god for the right to bare arms
Head on fire
head on fire
I don’t have a clue but my heart aches almost everyday
It seems like things are ending before we all get the chance to graduate
I wanna say I love you cause life gets shorter the more that we wait
Lie awake at night and wonder how much more of this I can take
Head on fire
Bold faced liar
Head on fire
Bold faced liar
Head on fire
head on fire
Head on fire
head on fire

sad girl
only seventeen
you make a big deal
out of almost anything
lie, say nice things
when you talk to me
sad girl
sad girl
trapped in your bedroom
with your boyfriend
you're both up to no good
try to help, all I can
you push away, you bite the hand
eyes closed shut
mouth wide open
whisper in my ear, tell me that I'm nothing
sad girl
sad girl
I'll give you one more shot
make me
forget all that I've got
it's all that you're good for, anyway
sad girl
sad girl
eyes closed shut
mouth wide open
whisper in my ear, tell me that I'm nothing
sad girl
go and smoke a cigarette
and tell me something true
not just spoken word that you've claimed you've gone through
sad girl, hypocrite
tell me you're so over it
when every conversation
yeah it leads us right back to it
eyes closed shut
mouth wide open
won't you whisper in my ear and tell me that I'm nothing
like you always do
sad girl
sad girl
