Kids in the Street

[Verse 1]

What makes you so damn sure that you're perfect huh?

I can't explain you, just like a nightmare I can't remember

What makes you so damn sure that you're worth it huh?

You're just a bad trip, I can't come back from since

Last December

Walk, into, the room, and you steal everyone

I see you, walk, into, the room, and you kill everyone

Cause I know

[Chorus]

My someday’s gone now

Bye bye [x2]

Just let it go

[Verse 2]

How did you figure that I'd let you cut me down?

Right at the knees I fall like a dead man

Out of an airplane

How do you figure that I'd let you drag me around?

You got my number - Draw me a story, tell me a picture

Walk, into, the room, and you've had everyone

And then you walk, into, the room, it's so sad

Everybody already knows

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

Cause even when I live, a piece of me will die

Win some lose some she won't bat an eye

Even when I sleep, I see you in my dreams

Forget about it one day damn I see you

Walk, into, the room, and you fucked everyone

And then you walk, into, the room, well so what

Everybody already knows

[Chorus]

[Outro]

Let it go [x5]

8 ContributorsBeekeeper’s Daughter LyricsI’ve been known a thousand ways

Choked a hundred hearts in half as many days

Oh no, I think so

And I get so lost inside this city

You ugly girls all look so pretty

It’s true

What am I supposed to do?

I still got you waiting

Look out your window

What do you see?

You don’t see me

You’re a pretty little flower

I’m a busy little bee

Honey, that’s all you need to see

I can take you for an hour

But then I’m gonna leave

Honey I know you’ll wait for me

You’re all alone but you understand

That we’re too young to start making plans agreeing

Monogamy’s not a part of me

And I know my line and is just a sin

But I swear to you I’m gonna do it again

I’m not making any friends

I just wanted you to wait

There out your window

What do you see?

You don’t see me

Cause you’re a pretty little flower

But I’m a busy little bee

Honey, that’s all you need to see

I can take you for an hour

Baby then I’m gonna leave

Honey I know you’ll wait for me

Pulled out your picture the other day

(Oh isn’t that sweet)

You didn’t have that much to say

(Cause it wasn't even me)

Cause I know that you said

I’m better off on my own and I’m better off dead

I just want you there to wait

Look out your window

What do you see?

You don’t see me

Come on, come on, come on

Pretty little flower

I’m a busy little bee

Honey that’s all you need to see

I can take you for an hour

Maybe two or maybe three

Honey, I know you’ll wait for me

Honey, that’s all you had to say

[Verse 1]

If only for tonight

Yeah i could dig myself a grave

But even 6 feet down i know

I'll be found feeling this way

If only i could find

Yeah just a reason to believe

That there's nothing that's up your sleeve

Even though you're wearing that tank top

Love me or leave me but just not behind

We don't need money the way we spend time

Cause if it's real tonight, you and i could really do something

[Chorus]

You go fast. I'll go slow

Meet you in the middle just to let you know

It's gonna be alright, (it's gonna be alright)

If it's me and you tonight (if it's me and you tonight)

You go fast, i go slow

Light my fuse and your body explodes

It's going to be alright (it's gonna be alright)

Are you ready now? I'm ready now

[Verse 2]

If only i were bright (if only i were bright)

Then i could let go of my brain

Put a tourniquet on and your sweet injection into my vein

And oooh, that's the stuff (that's the the stuff you give to me it's like a-)

And i say that you're the drug

Twelve steps wouldn't be enough to kick you're just that rough

Make me a crazy i just can't define

There's not a closet for you in my mind

Oh, but you puzzle me tonight

Let's play with your bits and pieces

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

Baby

Oooh i want to take my time. (i need you baby...)

If you stay with me once again, once again

It's a heart attack, heart attack

Cause i want you so bad. (oh i want you too)

Well i hope (this lasts) for ever (and ever)

You go fast.. I'll go slow

[Chorus]

[Outro]

Are you ready now? [x3]

[Verse 1]

I still remember that empty look left on your face

You took the pictures but you left the frames

All we had written, well, it's been erased

Something that i had to do

I cut you deep, you're bleeding through

You're every single shade of blue

I'm staring right in front of you

[Chorus]

I can hear your heartbeat slowing down

I can hear your heartbeat turn me around

You can take my life

All you need, make me right

I can't sleep with your heartbeat slowing down

[Verse 2]

The hair you left scattered

Like wishes that to your room

I bury my face in your pillow

Just to smell your perfume

Outside i'm hungry

But inside i'm just consumed

Tell me how am i supposed to breathe

When losing you is choking me?

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

I fucking hate this town

I wanna burn it down

I never felt so cold

And when i burn this town

I hope i burn it down

And leave me on my own

I fucking hate this town (just see me)

I wanna burn it down (just see me)

I never felt so cold (just see me)

[Outro]

I hear your heartbeat slowing down

Slow

I can hear your heartbeat slowing down (heartbeat slowing down)

I can hear your heartbeat turn me around (heartbeat slowing down)

You can take my life (take my life)

All you need (all you need), make me right

How can you sleep with your heartbeat slowing down?

I can hear your heartbeat slowing down

[Verse 1]

Doctor, doctor

Could you please just give me something for the state I'm in

I'm having trouble and society believe I got it wrong again

I'm one month sober I don't think I'm getting over my predicament

But if I jumped out of the window what would she say

[Chorus]

It's not on me, it's all on you

We can't deny the things we do

I can't believe her pretty feet walked over me

All over me

[Verse 2]

Help me, help me doc

It seems to be an awful lot for me to understand

I know i'm not a specimen

The troubles and the mess I'm in

I should be dead

He said, listen son

I think you've had all your fun

It's time to be a man

So you better quit your bitching

Think about what the people would say

[Chorus]

It’s not on me, it’s all on you

I can’t prescribe what you want me to

You need some sleep, you better leave

You walked over me

All over me

[Bridge]

Wait until tomorrow, and it's gone

So long

Wait until tomorrow, so long

It's gone

Wait until tomorrow

You beg and steal and borrow till it's gone

[Verse 3]

(He don't got a lot but he's got all he needs)

I need someone to love

(And all he's got well it's all that he needs)

Somebody help me cause I could hear the voices in the tube

To get me through anything I do and anything will do good by me

A little pill, a little thrill, should I take it I think I will

And anything will do good so as long as it's always too good

Either way I don't give a damn what you people all say

All now boy

Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]

It’s not on me, it’s all on you

I can’t deny the things I do

I can't believe her pretty feet walked over me

All over me, yeah

[Chorus]

It’s not on me (It's not on me)

It’s all on you (It's all on you)

Here comes the time to speak the truth

And you can see

Me when I leave

Walked over you

All over you

7 ContributorsOut The Door LyricsShot by bedroom eyes

And that screaming silence frozen fire hypnotize

And I can't disguise the words that I steal from your lips

A ransom for your body, bind your fingertips

Then just so be it

And I walk out the door

I walk right out the door

And next to you

And I never asked for more

I get my fix if I get close to you

With just a dose of you

We're both right

We feast on poisoned apples and I'm just in time

But I'm petrified

Oh I take my time and you're the clock

And that second hand you place on me

My heart could stop

And it's tick tock tick tock

And I walk out the door

I walk right out the door

And next to you

'Cause I needed to

And I never asked for more

I get my fix if I get close to you

With just a dose of you

And every single day

I remember

You never take away

Even if it's wrong

And I walk out the door

And I walk out the door

I walk right out the door

And next to you

'Cause I needed to

And I never asked for more

I get my fix if I get close to you

With just a dose of you

And every single day

I remember

You never take away

Even if it's wrong, yeah

And I walk out the door

I walk out the door

And I walk out the door

7 ContributorsKids In The Street LyricsThe song is same title as the fourth studio album, Kids In The Street, and was the second single from it. It was released on March 12, 2012.

In an album breakdown interview, lead singer, Tyson Ritter says… Read More In the night

In the beat, city alight

We'd steal ourselves away and hold on tight

You were there, yeah, we were all there

Too young, too smart, too much for this one town

We'd get so high, we got lost coming down

When we were kids in the street, kids in the street

When we were kids in the street, just kids in the street

Remember when we

We used to laugh, we used to cry

Live and die by the forty-five

Take me back, I'll go there

Who could stop us, and who would care?

Always keep, to the kids in the street

We were dreams, we were american graffiti scenes

But no war, no peace, no hope, no means, just us

And the songs, with the words we'd sing wrong

Yeah we'd drive until that jealous sun fell down

Just to wash ourselves in the moonlight summer sounds

When we were kids in the street, kids in the street

When we were kids in the street, just kids in the street

Remember when we

We used to laugh, we used to cry

Live and die by the forty-five

Take me back, I'll go there

Who could stop us, and who would care?

Always keep, to the kids in the street

(huh, huh, huh) and we never felt, so alive (so alive)

(huh, huh, huh) and we'd dance, all, night, under the sky (under the sky)

(whoa, whoa, whoa) and we'd live (we'd live), we'd breathe (we'd breathe), we'd die (we'd die)

(whoa, whoa, whoa) when the world, stood, still, for you and I

Just (you and I)

Candles burn, cause the world will always turn

And I'll burn both ends until my fire's out

Lost in the darkness, I can still scream out (aaah)

We used to laugh, we used to cry

Say goodbye to i-35

Take me back, down a dirty road

Where it went, we didn't care to know

A glory night is a story saved

Mark the chapter, but turn the page

Always keep, to kids in the street

When we were kids in the street

Just kids in the street

(whoa)

(whoa-ooh)

8 ContributorsBleed Into Your Mind LyricsHow long has it been since i ripped you

These paper cut hands need to stop

And lonely's a plague but it skipped you

I suffer till you cut me up

Then i bleed into your mind

I need to make you blind

I bleed into your mind

I need you one last time

Well you put yourself together

But pieces of you slipped away

And somehow forever whenever

Put me on my knees at your feet today

And then I bleed into your mind

I need to make you blind

I bleed into your mind

I need you one last time

You'll never forgive me, I can not forgive you

Yeah I fill you full of little lies

You're still hungry for the truth

And I know we've got problems

Let's just try to solve them

But they know

In your mind I stay with you

I know in time you'll feel it too

Bleed into your mind

I need to make you blind

I bleed into your mind

I need you one last

And I bleed into your mind

With a love that'll make you blind

I bleed into your mind

I need you one last

[Verse 1]

I'll never forget

When we started out

The beat of the drum

A face in the crowd

It's better this way

It's better this way

How far we've come now

Not a soul can change

[Verse 2]

Remember the road

Running under our feet?

We'd shoot for the stars

But we'd aim at the trees

It's better this way

It's better this way

Gambling with life

It was our turn to play

[Chorus]

It's time

Only when you look forward

Can you see behind

We bought the ticket

So we'll take the ride

[Verse 3]

Every trial

And every test

We'd drive to the east

And we'd fly to the west

Just running away

Just running away

We can't be different

'Cause they're all the same

[Verse 4]

Every night

That we'd ever start

And every beat

Of every heart

Is running away

Just running away

Catching our breath

At the end we could say

[Chorus]

It's time

Only when you look forward

Can you see behind

Every taste we could get

Was just sweet sublime

Holding onto the moment

We let go of life

We bought the ticket

So we'll take the ride

[Bridge]

Day after day in the light

We're glowing in the dark

Standing was the sketch

Where falling was an art

We lost ourselves to find

That somewhere down the line

It's time

Day after day in the light

We're glowing in the dark

Standing was the sketch

Where falling was an art

We lost ourselves to find

That somewhere down the line

It's time

[Verse 5]

For some it's a god

For me it's a fact

We'd make a mistake

And try to take 'em all back

It's better this way

It's better this way

Out of the grind

And then into the grave

[Chorus]

It's time

Only when you look forward

Can you see behind

Every taste we could get

Was just sweet sublime

Holding onto the moment

We let go of life

We bought the ticket

So we'll take the ride

We bought the ticket

So we'll take the ride

[Verse 1]

I always wonder where you are

I'm right beside you, you're so far away

Moments you're not facing me

Moments you're not chasing me

I don't believe in good good-byes

Cause even when the roses die

There's still some thorns left in your side

It's like a funeral for the bride

And i know candy girls, yeah they just rot your teeth, but

I've always been such a sucker for sweets

I need affection

[Chorus]

All I want right now is affection

I don't mean to point your direction

Girl it's not what you do

What you don't do makes me have to talk to you about affection

I need affection

[Verse 2]

Somewhere alone is when I died

On the banks of some canal

Yeah the river bed of tears i tried to hide

And even fools will believe in lies

And if every word you ever said were true

You'd be my god and i'd just pray to you for affection

[Chorus]

All I want right now is affection

I don't mean to make a confession

Girl it's not what you do

What you don't do makes a man come unglued

Oh, affection, I need affection

[Bridge]

Why won't you dance with me?

(covered in gas you couldn't catch fire)

There's no more romance with me

(I know there's someone else burning in your eyes)

You don't think I see you

But I see right through you, baby

[Outro]

Whoa, affection

All I wanted was affection

All I needed was affection

What you do (what you do)

What you do (what you do)

Where would you go?

Affection

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah [x3]

And don't think I see you

I see right through you

You don't think i see you

But I do

[Verse 1]

Say the words I cannot say

Say them on another day

Fragile words like these will cut your tongue

Was I good enough, was I bad enough

When I wanted more, yeah, you had enough

But nobody's gonna try for you

Nobody's gonna do like I for you

And every slow-lit cigarette

That nervous hands can barely get the courage

I could always feel your eyes

And those dresses you made look like gowns

You're a sinner but the devil even turned you down

[Chorus]

Cause, nobody's gonna try for you

Nobody's gonna do like I for you

And nobody's going to try for you

And nobody's going to lie for you

And nobody's going to do like I for you

[Verse 2]

Hold me like you never could

I'll hold you like I said I would

Air or light won't breathe nor shine between

With your feather lips, yeah you fly away

Well i hope they come back down someday

[Chorus]

Cause, nobody's gonna try for you

Nobody's going to do like I for you

Somebody's getting by for you

I don't bend, I just break in two

Somebody like me

I'd die for you
