Tell Me Iâm Alive Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Just got jumped in an alley
"Life's too short," picked a fight with a bouncer at a bar in the valley
Got a couple bruises and a bite mark
On my lip from kissin' vampires
[Pre-Chorus]
Let's find a park, let's kill a bottle
It's a start if there's a spark
Light up this icy heart
But, baby, don't you cry for me
[Chorus]
I'm messy, I'm reckless
I fuck shit up for breakfast
My life is a trainwreck
I'm burnin' through my paychecks
On the weekends, these cheap friends
Pull me into the deep end
Now I'm drownin', I'm sinkin'
It's good to feel somethin'
And I, I wanna fly
I wanna burn, I wanna die
For cheap thrills that kill and tell me I'm alive
[Verse 2]
I sold my soul to the devil
For a pack of lights and a night spent in jail I can keep as a memento
X's on my hand and a hospital bracelet
No one gets to say I never went for it
[Pre-Chorus]
Let's find a park, let's kill a bottle
It's a start if there's a spark
Light up this icy heart
But, baby, don't you cry for me
[Chorus]
I'm messy, I'm reckless
I fuck shit up for breakfast
My life is a trainwreck
I'm burnin' through my paychecks
On the weekends, these cheap friends
Pull me into the deep end
Now I'm drownin', I'm sinkin'
It's good to feel somethin'
And I, I wanna fly
I wanna burn, I wanna die
For cheap thrills that kill and tell me
I, I wanna fly
I wanna burn, I wanna die
For cheap thrills that kill and tell me I'm alive
[Outro]
So pour me another and kiss me like there's no tomorrow
I wanna have your baby, let's move to Toronto
Let's fall off the face of the earth
'Cause we're all bound to die, but hey, babe, we tried
So tell me I'm alive (Tell me I'm alive)
Tell me that it's all alright
Tell me I'm alive
And bring me back to life
Modern Love Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Look at you now, super strung out, what would your mother say?
Some killer queen, making a scene, don't got a price to pay
Hook in my mouth, stringing me out on every word you say
Those other boys, these other girls, don't matter anyway
So quick to jump ship on some flavor of the week shit
So now, I'll take you home tonight if only for the hell of it
[Chorus]
Stacy, please, I'm suffocating
Choking on infatuation
You're obsessed with drugs and dating
Modern love's too complicated (Complicated, complicated, complicated)
[Verse 2]
You're missing the point, nobody lasts after the honeymoon
Why even try giving it back if there's a chancĐ” you'll lose?
Out of the red and into thĐ” blue, see it for what it is
Chasing the high or living the lie, just like your parents did
But I'll take you home tonight
[Chorus]
Stacy, please, I'm suffocating
Choking on infatuation
You're obsessed with drugs and dating
Modern love's too complicated
Round and round and round we go
The carousel don't stop for us so
Bite my lip and spin me faster
Modern love's a beautiful disaster
[Bridge]
Look at you now, super strung out, what would your mother say?
Some killer queen, making a scene, don't got a price to pay
Hook in my mouth stringing me out on every word you say
Those other boys, these other girls, don't matter anyway
Look at you now, super strung out, what would your mother say? (So quick to jump ship on some)
Some killer queen, making a scene, don't got a price to pay (Flavor of the week shit)
Hook in my mouth stringing me out on every word you say (I'll take you home tonight if only)
Those other boys, these other girls, don't matter anyway (For the hell of it)
[Pre-Chorus]
Stacy, please, we're suffocating
Tired of all the drugs and dating
Turns out it's less devastating
Staying home and masturbating
[Chorus]
Stacy, please, I'm suffocating
Choking on infatuation
So obsessed with drugs and dating
Modern love's too complicated
Round and round and round we go
The carousel don't stop for us so
Bite my lip and spin me faster
Modern love's a beautiful
Modern love's a beautiful
Modern love's a beautiful disaster
Are You There? Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Loneliness is a fucked up thing
It'll break you down when you feel that sting
And you'll lose yourself in a crowded room
'Cause you got nobody and nobody got you
[Pre-Chorus]
And now you're feeling empty, waiting for somebody
Not your one and only, just someone to get you through tonight
[Chorus]
Where do you turn when the drugs run out
And it's 3 AM and you're comin' down?
All your friends are asleep 'cause they're all okay
And you need someone, but you don't wanna say
[Post-Chorus]
Are you there? (Do you need someone? Do you need someone?)
Are you there? (Do you need someone? Do you need someone?)
[Verse 2]
You can savĐ” yourself from the morning sun
When you wakĐ” up fine 'til you come undone
Then you cycle back back to the same old game
Find a brand new face with a different name
[Pre-Chorus]
And now you're feeling empty, waiting for somebody
Not your one and only, just someone to get you through tonight
[Chorus]
Where do you turn when the drugs run out
And it's 3 AM and you're comin' down?
All your friends are asleep 'cause they're all okay
And you need someone, but you don't wanna say
[Post-Chorus]
Are you there? (Do you need someone? Do you need someone?)
Are you there? (Do you need someone? Do you need someone?)
[Bridge]
Left you feeling empty, waiting for somebody
Not your one and only, someone to get you through tonight
Lonely, waiting for somebody
Not your one and only, someone to get you through tonight
[Chorus]
Where do you turn when the drugs run out
And it's 3 AM and you're comin' down
All your friends are asleep 'cause they're all okay
And you need someone, but you don't wanna say
[Post-Chorus]
Are you there? (Do you need someone? Do you need someone?)
Are you there? (Do you need someone? Do you need someone?)
Are you there? (Do you need someone? Do you need someone?)
(Do you need someone? Do you need someone? Do you need someone?)
Sleepwalking Lyrics
[Intro]
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone
[Verse 1]
What a shame, what a shame, what a shame
It's all fun and games 'til you don't wanna play now
Run away, run away, run away
It's easy to see but it's harder to say now
[Pre-Chorus]
You're on to something else
I'm a picture left on your shelf
The dream's a lie, I tell myself
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone
[Chorus]
Wide awake, but it just feels wrong
Stay in bed 'til the whole year's gone
Wake me up when it's over
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone
MedicatĐ” 'til my brain goes numb
Like a dream whДre your feet won't run (Won't run)
Stuck in place, paralyzed, I
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone (Gone)
[Post-Chorus]
(Sleepwalking when you're gone)
[Verse 2]
Took a flight to the west coast
I fell asleep at the window
Suddenly I feel my body
Fallin' fast into visions of you
[Pre-Chorus]
Movin' on to someone else
I'm a picture left on your shelf
And the dream's a lie, I tell myself
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone
[Chorus]
Wide awake, but it just feels wrong
Stay in bed 'til the whole year's gone
Wake me up when it's over
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone
Medicate 'til my brain goes numb
Like a dream where your feet won't run (Won't run)
Stuck in place, paralyzed, I
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone (Gone)
[Post-Chorus]
(Sleepwalking when you're gone)
[Bridge]
What a shame, what a shame, what a shame
It's all fun and games 'til you don't wanna play now
Run away, run away, run away
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone (Gone)
[Chorus]
Wide awake, but it just feels wrong
Stay in bed 'til the whole year's gone
Wake me up when it's over
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone
Medicate 'til my brain goes numb (Goes numb)
Like a dream where your feet won't run (Won't run)
Stuck in place, paralyzed, I
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone
[Outro]
Feel like I'm sleepwalking when you're gone (Gone)
Calm Down Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's a mad, mad world
Tell me not to be so mad about it
It's a sad, sad world
Tell me that I'd ought to laugh about it
Funny thing is I'm the one withâtheâcoolâhead
Everything's fine ifâyou pretend
Bless thisâmess, hallelujah
But I'm about to lose it (Two, three, four)
[Chorus]
Don't tell me to calm down, tell me to calm down
It's freaking me out that you're not freaking out
Don't tell me I'll be fine even if you're right
It's freaking me out, don't tell me to calm down
[Verse 2]
It's a mad, mad world, trying not to lose my shit about it (Calm down)
In a bad, bad mood, maybe I should take a hit about it (Calm down)
Every other day I need a hug like a teddy bear
Now the room's on fire, need to get some air
I'll bless this mess, hallelujah
Thoughts and prayers, so what? Who cares?
[Chorus]
Don't tell me to calm down, tell me to calm down
It's freaking me out that you're not freaking out
Don't tell me I'll be fine even if you're right
It's freaking me out, don't tell me to calm down
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Don't tell me, don't tell me to calm down
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Don't tell me, don't tell me to calm down
[Bridge]
Drifting through this fever dream in microplastic submarines
Your body is not yours, it seems, what the fuck is happening?
[Chorus]
Don't tell me to calm down, tell me to calm down
It's freaking me out that you're not freaking out
Don't tell me I'll be fine even if you're right
It's freaking me out, don't tell me to calm down
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Don't tell me, don't tell me to calm down
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Don't tell me, don't tell me to calm down
The Sound of Letting Go Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My demons follow me wherever I go
They wanna remind me daily that I'm not in control and I wish they would just go get a life of their own
'Cause I need the company but not the shade that they throw
[Pre-Chorus]
Been out of my mind, out of my head
Out of my way, I'm going in
Trying to find a way to rewind, kill the static, start again
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
That's the sound of letting go playing through the stereo
Bump it when you're feeling low
Now here's the sound of getting over all the shit that's taking over
You just brush it off your shoulders
[Verse 2]
My best friend says I need to find something new
But I don't know where to start because I only see you
My mama said that it gets better someday and I know
I know she meant it 'cause she's doing okay
[Pre-Chorus]
Been out of my mind, out of my head
Out of my way, I'm going in
Trying to find a way to rewind, kill the static, start again
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
That's the sound of letting go playing through the stereo
Bump it when you're feeling low
Now here's the sound of getting over all the shit that's taking over
You just brush it off your shoulders
That's the sound of letting go
The sound of letting go
[Bridge]
Now scream your lungs out like there's no tomorrow
When you can't cut through the static you just gotta let go
[Chorus]
That's the sound of letting go playing through the stereo
Bump it when you're feeling low
Now here's the sound of getting over all the shit that's taking over
You just brush it off your shoulders
That's the sound of letting go
The sound of letting go
That's the sound of letting go
The sound of letting go
New Religion Lyrics
[Intro: Alex Gaskarth]
New religion
I only wanna worship you, my new religion
[Verse 1: Alex Gaskarth]
I never thought myself a believer
But here tonight, I believe in you
We danced the demons away with tequila
Beneath the lights, you were showing me the truth
[Pre-Chorus: Alex Gaskarth]
That your sweat is my holy water (I'd drown in an ocean)
And your hips are the only altar (I fall to my knees thinking)
[Chorus: Alex Gaskarth]
I found God and we found heaven
On the bedroom floor, you're my, my new religion
It's been way too long since my last confession
On your bedroom floor, you're my, my, my, my, my
[Post-Chorus: Alex Gaskarth]
New religion
I only wanna worship you, my new religion
[Verse 2: Teddy Swims]
This ain't gospel, nah, but what can I do?
I would be lying if I said I'm not dying to worship you
I got no problem being saved, ain't no questioning my faith
Could be a sin to want you but worse to walk away
[Pre-Chorus: Teddy Swims & Alex Gaskarth]
'Cause your sweat is my holy water (I'd drown in an ocean)
And your hips are the only altar (I fall to my knees thinking)
[Chorus: Alex Gaskarth & Teddy Swims]
I found God and we found heaven
On the bedroom floor, you're my, my new religion
It's been way too long since my last confession
On your bedroom floor, you're my, my, my, my, my
[Post-Chorus: Alex Gaskarth & Teddy Swims]
New religion
I only wanna worship you, my new religion
New religion
I only wanna worship you, my new religion (I only wanna)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus: Alex Gaskarth & Teddy Swims]
I found God and we found heaven
On the bedroom floor, you're my, my new religion
It's been way too long since my last confession
On your bedroom floor, you're my, my, my, my, my
[Post-Chorus: Alex Gaskarth & Teddy Swims]
New religion
I only wanna worship you, my new religion (I only wanna, hey)
New religion (I only wanna)
I only wanna worship you, my new religion (I only wanna)
The Way You Miss Me Lyrics
[Intro]
(I hate the way you miss me)
[Verse 1]
You said this happens all the time, yeah, that'sâ
kindaâ
the point
We can'tâ
keep on doing this, doing this
Evenâ
when we're doing fine, yeah, nothing's really fine
But we keep on doing it, doing it
[Pre-Chorus]
Like one day (one day)
We'll both change (we'll both change)
And everything will make sense, darling
You'll see (you'll see)
Believe me (believe me)
Now come sit down, just put your hands on me
[Chorus]
I'm not trying to say I don't want to stay, I just know how this story ends
Use my body against me and all of our history
I hate the way you miss me (The way you miss me)
[Verse 2]
We're on our third bottle of wine now, your tongue is on mine
We just keep on doing this, doing this, don't we?
I try to leave but you find some way to twist my mind
And make me wonder
[Pre-Chorus]
If one day (one day)
I might change (I might change)
And everything would make sense, darling
You'll see (you'll see)
Believe me (believe me)
Now come sit down, just put your hands on me
[Chorus]
I'm not trying to say I don't want to stay, I just know how this story ends
Use my body against me and all of our history
I hate the way you miss me
I hate the way you, way you miss me
I hate the way you, way you (you miss me)
(I hate the way you miss me)
I hate the way you, way you miss me
I hate the way you, way you (you miss me)
(I hate the way you miss me)
[Bridge]
(I'm not trying to say I don't want to stay, I just know how this story ends)
(Use my body against me and all of our history)
(I hate the way you miss me)
[Chorus]
I'm not trying to say I don't want to stay, I just know how this story ends
Use my body against me and all of our history
I hate the way you miss me
I hate the way you, way you miss me
I hate the way you, way you (you miss me)
(I hate the way you miss me)
I hate the way you, way you miss me
I hate the way you, way you (you miss me)
(I hate the way you miss me)
I'm not trying to say I don't want to stay, I just know how this story ends
Use my body against me and all of our history
I hate the way you miss me
Iâd Be Fine (If I Never Saw You Again) Lyrics
[Intro]
I know I'd be fine
If I never saw you again
I don't mind, I'm fine
It really isn't hard to pretend
I'm fine
[Verse]
There's no one quite like you
I hate that I like you
But when I'm inside you
There's nothing I won't do
Try to resist but it's simply no use
Your delicate wrist got my neck in your noose
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone away
Yeah, you're no, no, no good for me
[Chorus]
I know I'd be fine
If I never saw you again
I don't mind, I'm fine
It really isn't hard to pretend
I've got a hundred different voices in my head, yeah
And they all say I don't need you like I did
I know that I'd be fine if I never saw you again
'til I see you again
[Bridge]
And I will not shed a tear
For the death of us, my dear
'til the blood that's on my hands
Fits the face that's in the mirror
And it all brings me back to you
And it all brings me back to you
[Chorus]
I know I'd be fine
If I never saw you again
I don't mind, I'm fine
It really isn't hard to pretend
I've got a hundred different voices in my head, yeah
And they all say I don't need you like I did
I know I'd be fine if I never saw you again, 'til I see you again
Kill Ur Vibe Lyrics
[Intro]
One, two
One, two, three!
[Verse 1]
It's Sunday morning I left the kettle on too long
It's boiling over, I spaced out trying to write this song
You say I'm tragic, I say I don't know how to lie
You've got the magic, I'm sorry If I kill your vibe
[Chorus]
You're always laughing and telling me to get my shit together
The weather's always bad in here
Happy days are over but you still find a way to keep on smiling
It's the greatest show, so tell me what's your secret
It's like you know something I don't
[Verse 2]
Stop wasting daylight, my phone's been dead since 3:05
Ain't that just classic, watching cartoons in black and white
You put up with me, honestly, I'm just tryna find the pДrfect way to
Say sorry if I kill your vibe
[Chorus]
You're always laughing and tДlling me to get my shit together
The weather's always bad in here
Happy days are over but you still find a way to keep on smiling
It's the greatest show, so tell me what's your secret
It's like you know something I don't
[Bridge]
I guess I hope that you know
Hope you know that I'm trying
Trying to keep my shit together
In a world that wants to tear us all apart
You said
"Don't even start...
You couldn't push me away if you tried
I'm the safest place you could ever think to hide
'cause I'm on your side
I know that you're on mine
Even when you kill my vibe
Even when you kill my vibe"
[Chorus]
You're always laughing (Ha ha)
And telling me to get my shit together
The weather's not so bad in here
Happy days are closer, you still find a way to keep me smiling
You're so inspiring, so tell me what's your secret (What's your secret)
It's like you know something I don't
The Other Side Lyrics
[Verse 1]
November, no trace of your perfume
No evidence of you, no
Remember my fingers in your hair
The heat behind your stare (yeah yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm in the kitchen
Rollin' at a party
Deep in the canyon
Dance with anybody, that's when you walk in
Holdin' on to someone new
It kills me
[Chorus]
But we say hello, say goodbye
And I swear I die a thousand times
So what's it like to reach the other side?
Of letting go, I'm moving on
Don't know why it's taking me so long
Now maybe you can tell mĐ” what it's like
On the other sidĐ”
(On the other side)
[Verse 2]
A cruel summer
That spring was gone too soon
Before the mess in June, oh, oh, oh
I'm pulled under
I thought that tides would change
But now you're just a stranger
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm in the kitchen
Rollin' at a party
Deep in the canyon
Dance with anybody, until you walk in
Holdin' on to someone new
It kills me
[Chorus]
But we say hello, say goodbye
And I swear I die a thousand times
So what's it like to reach the other side?
Of letting go, I'm moving on
Don't know why it's taking me so long
Now maybe you can tell me what it's like
On the other side
[Chorus]
We say hello, say goodbye
And I swear I die a thousand times
So what's it like to reach the other side?
Of letting go, I'm moving on
Don't know why it's taking me so long
Now maybe you can tell me what it's like
On the other side
Lost Along the Way Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Can we start this record over?
Can we paint with different colors?
Can we dig the garden up and start again
I want to tear out all the pages
Of this book I've had for ages
'cause the words I'm reading now don't make no sense
[Pre-Chorus]
Solitary and confined
Lost my way and lost my mind
The walls are closing in around me now
Swimming through the solar rain
Washed away the salt and shame
I'm reaching out
But can you find me now?
[Chorus]
So meet me where the stars collide
The Milky Way is ours tonight
Your gravity is more than I can take
I've come so far to find you here
I burned up in the atmosphere
And there's no going back
But that's OK
I got lost along the way
[Verse 2]
Now time is moving slower
My spirit's getting lower
The rush of blood is music to my veins
I'm spinning in the shadows
The dark side of my shallow beating heart's
The only way to start again
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm solitary and confined
Lost my way and lost my mind
The walls are closing in around me now
Swimming through the solar rain
Melt away the salt and shame
I'm reaching out
But can you find me now?
[Chorus]
So meet me where the stars collide
The Milky Way is ours tonight
Your gravity is more than I can take (more than I can take)
I've come so far to find you here
I burned up in the atmosphere
And there's no going back
But that's OK
I got lost along the way
[Bridge]
No way back to where you are
I can't see past this dying star
Stellar clouds surround you now
And I'm so lost without you
Falling just beneath the edge
Event horizon, full eclipse
Stellar clouds surround you now
And I'm so lost without you
I'm so lost without you
[Chorus]
Meet me where the stars collide
The Milky Way is ours tonight
Your gravity is more than I can take (more than I can take)
I've come so far to find you here
I've burned out in the atmosphere and there's no going back but that's OK
I got lost along the way
(I got lost along the way)
I got lost along the way
(I got lost along the way)
And I've come so far to find you here
I've burned up in the atmosphere and now I can't go back but that's OK
I got lost along the way
