Stranger
Nobody believes me when I tell them that you're out of your mind
Nobody believes me when I tell them that there's so much you hide
You treat me like a queen when we go out,
wanna show everyone what our love's about
All wrapped up in me whenever there is a crowd
But when no ones around

Theres no kindness in your eyes
he way you look at me, it's just not right
I can tell whats going on this time
Theres a stranger in my life
You're not the person that I once knew
Are you scared to let them know it's you?
If they could only see you like I do
Then they would see a stranger too

Did I ever do anything that was this cruel to you?
Did I ever make you wonder who was standing in the room?
You made yourself look perfect in everyway
So when this goes down, I'm the one that will be blamed
Your plan is working so you can just walk away
Baby your secret's safe

Theres no kindness in your eyes
he way you look at me, it's just not right
I can tell whats going on this time

Theres a stranger in my life
You're not the person that I once knew
Are you scared to let them know it's you?
If they could only see you like I do
Then they would see a stranger too

Such a long way back, from this place we arrived
When I think of all the time I've wasted, I could cry

Theres no kindness in your eyes
he way you look at me, it's just not right
I can tell whats going on this time
Theres a stranger in my life
You're not the person that I once knew
Are you scared to let them know it's you?
If they could only see you like I do
Then they would see a stranger too

Theres no kindness in your eyes
The way you look at me, it's just not right
I can tell whats going on this time
Theres a stranger in my life
You're not the person i once knew
Are you scared to let them know it's you?
If they could only see you like I do
Then they would see a stranger too

Dignity
You got the hottest shoes
You got those Jimmy Choo's
You never get the blues
It's always about you
Wake up, theres no time to waste
Well check that phone
Theres a club too close

CHORUS
Wheres your, wheres your, wheres your dignity?
I think you lost it in the Hollywood Hills
Wheres your, wheres your, wheres your dignity?
give my respect, but you can think about them
pick it up, pick it up,
so you got it, so you got it,
pick it up, pick it up
Cause money makes your world go round, money makes your world go round

Always with Mr. Right
But then you have a fight
Run into your friends ex
He's happy to be your next
Tomorrows papers comin' out

so kiss him fast, watch the cameras flash

Wheres your, wheres your, wheres your dignity?
I think you lost it in the Hollywood Hills
Wheres your, wheres your, wheres your dignity?
give my respect, but you can think about them
pick it up, pick it up,
so you got it, so you got it,
pick it up, pick it up
Cause money makes your world go round, money makes your world go round

Use your words to the opening of the envelope
Why! does everybody care about where you go
It's not news when you got a new bag
It's not news when somebody slaps you
It's not news when you lookin' your best
c'mon c'mon c'mon give it a rest

pick it up, pick it up, so you got it, so you got it,
pick it up, pick it up
Cause money makes your world go round
Money makes your world go round..

With Love
I don't mind you telling me what's been on your mind lately
I don't mind you speaking up
I know sometimes I can be all wrapped up and into me
I can be in such a rush

Just slow me down, slow me down
Tell me tomorrow everything will be around
Just slow me down, slow me down
You're the one who keeps me on the ground

Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You can even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love
You can tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'd be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love.

I can take your honesty, all your words sway heavenly
Listening to you all the time
I wanna be there for you, the way you've been there for me
Always help me walk the line
And slow me down, slow me down
I know you will always be around

Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You can even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love

You can tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'd be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love

All this trying to find we know each other
Now that I've been leaning on your shoulder
I can tell you baby that
You're right, you're right
You're wrong, you're wrong
And I can't believe people know your song

Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You can even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love
You can tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'd be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love

Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You can even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love
You can tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'd be crushed

Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love.
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love.

Danger
Were you born in 74? (Oh no)
Are you the kind of guy that I should ignore?
Will you give me all the things I need?
You probably never wear your heart on your sleeve
You intrigue me like no one before
It may be wrong to get to know you more
But I’m not sure
I’m so unsure

Chorus
‘Cause I see danger, danger, danger in your eyes
‘Cause danger, danger, danger, you disguise
So baby lift your head up to the light
There’s danger in those eyes
There’s danger in your eyes

You belong to my darker side
You’re a guy who sets a girl on fire
I can see myself falling in line
Like the hundred girls you had over time
And I want more
I am so sure
That I want more
I am so sure

Repeat Chorus

I’m smarter than this
And know better than this
‘Cause there’s something really missin’ in your kiss
I’m smarter than this
And know better than this
But there’s something that you got that is tough to resist
It’s tough to resist

Repeat Chorus

There’s danger in your eyes
Dangereous
You’re dangerous
You’re dangerous

Gypsy Woman
The battle of France is over, congratulations
You've joined the ranks of all the rest

Was it her face that invaded your mind?
The kind that isn't that hard to find?
she lets you think that you found her first
Thats how she works, her sick and twisted gypsy curse

She can swallow knives, she can swallow lives
Golden black stare, but the night of your demise
Try to run away with the gypsy woman
Good today then gone for good
Can't get away with the gypsy woman
Run, no one will know your secret is down below
Can go with her, can go with her, can go with her
The gypsy Woman

This is her favorite game to play
she's got you stumbling, stum-stu-stumbling
Talks with a grin, 'cause she's got no shame
Enjoy the fame, bringing down the family name

She can swallow knives, she can swallow lives
Golden black stare, but the night of your demise
Try to run away with the gypsy woman
Good today but gone for good
Can't get away with the gypsy woman
No one will know your secret is down below
Can go with her, can go with her, can go with her
The gypsy Woman

She can rob you blind with just one look from those eyes
How out of all that trained her, none of them can tame her

Try to run away with the gypsy woman
Good today then gone for good
Can't get away with the gypsy woman
Run, no one will know your secret is down below
Can go with her, can go with her, can go with her
The gypsy Woman

Tell me was it worth it, was it worth it?

Never Stop
Sometimes you feel your world is breaking down
Baby don't stop
There trouble everywhere, it's all around
Baby don't stop
Cause' I'm here to turn the corner with you
And when we're together there's nothing that we can't do

You signed my name on the wrong
You put so much in my heart
When the darkness rolls in
I'll be there through thick and thin
I want you to know
I want you to know
That i'll never stop loving you

I hope that you know

Wherever you go

I'll never stop loving you

When you're on the road all lonely and bloom
Baby please stop
Remember all the things we've been through
All the good stuff
Take all the notes you wrote to me
And all the things that we believe
People can't that we couldn't be
No we never stop
No we never stop

You signed my name on the wrong
You put so much in my heart
When the darkness rolls in
I'll be there through thick and thin
I want you to know

I want you to know
That i'll never stop loving you

I hope that you know

Wherever you go

I'll never stop loving you

We made mistakes along the way
But here we are
Here we are
Never stop, never stop, never stop
Never stop, never stop, never stop
Never stop, never stop, never stop
Never stop, never stop, never stop

You signed my name on the wrong
You put so much in my heart
When the darkness rolls in
I'll be there through thick and thin
I want you to know
I want you to know
That i'll never stop loving you

I hope that you know

Wherever you go

I'll never stop loving you

I want you to know
I want you to know
That i'll never stop loving you
I hope that you know
Wherever you go
I'll never stop loving you

No Work, All Play
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
Some people go through life like it’s a breeze
They float their way through days
And never feel the grey
In their tears filled
But they don’t sing
Their typical merry marks
Not always from the heart
They live smiling
It’s so easy
You’re digging in
So what’s living

Chorus
No work all play
What a mistake
Let the clouds roll in and fill the sky
Get that meloncholy feel inside and
Work all yourself
To run from your bigger self
You don’t have to slide
Life’s not one big high

La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
Sometimes it’s hard lookin’ at yourself
You’d rather place the blame
Then point at your wrong way
I still do hide from my feelings myself
But I’m trying hard these days
Not to procrastinate
And face my fate
Stay on my game

Repeat Chorus

No one is perfect
No one’s the same
We’ve all got problems
That we haven’t faced
The challenges well
They’ll make you strong
Don’t put them off for too long

You gotta know yourself
To be yourself
You gotta do it all the way
You gotta know yourself
To be yourself
It’s a struggle everyday
You gotta know yourself to be yourself
You gotta do it all the way
And it’s a struggle everyday

Repeat Chorus x 2

You gotta know yourself to be yourself
You gotta do it all the way
You gotta know yourself to be yourself
And it’s a struggle everyday
You gotta know yourself to be yourself
You gotta do it all the way
You gotta know yourself to be yourself
And it’s a struggle everyday
You gotta know yourself to be yourself
And it’s a struggle everyday
You gotta know yourself to be yourself
And it’s a struggle everyday

Between You And Me
You can call it what you want
But I’m not playing games
We’re both apart of the same story
Not on the same page
And I see you standing there
With that dirty little stare
Well it freaks me out inside
So maybe you should just beware

Chorus
My love is not up for negotiation
Hello doesn’t mean an open invitation
Don’t take it personally ’cause
You and me will know
So move on
Move on
Move on

Now I’m not saying you’re not nice
Let me give you some advice
There’s a girl across the room
Who’d kill to be with you tonight
She’s been looking over here
And she’s made it pretty clear
So don’t lose your chance with her by trying to get so damn near me

Repeat Chorus

Oh here he comes
He never gets the hints
Never gets the hints
That I’ve given him
Oh there he goes
He’s never gonna win
Never gonna win
He doesn’t even know who he’s trying to get with

Repeat Chorus
Move on
Move on
Move on

Dreamer
Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum
I’m at the grocery store and there you are just watching me
Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum
Pick up my clothes from the cleaners and look who I see
Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum
I try to lose you in my car
But you won’t go away
Come on buddy don’t you think you’ve overstayed your stay
Don’t you have better things to do with your life
Then hang around and stare at me and complicate me
Your eyes must burn so bad cause you haven’t blinked
You and me will never be
If that’s what you think

Chorus
Oh you’re such a dreamer
But I’m not a believer in
All the things that you dream
Stop watching me
Stop watching me

Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum bum bum
I go to bed and I wake up isn’t that interesting
Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum
I brush my teeth and feed my dogs
Isn’t that thrilling (don’t you think that that’s thrilling don’t you think)
It must be fun to follow me pretending we’re a thing
It’s just so messed up can’t you see
That you’re just scaring me

Repeat Chorus x2

Don’t you have better things to do with your life
Then hang around and stare at me and complicate mine
Don’t you have better things to do with your life
Then hang around and stare at me and complicate mine

Repeat Chorus x2
Stop watching me
Stop watching me
Stop watching me

Happy
I understand why you're looking for tears in my eyes, eyes
Trust me they were there but but now the well is re-dry, dry
I was in so deep I couldn't get out
I sat on feelings that I buried with doubt
I knew there'd come a day when our paths would cross
And I'm glad it's today 'cause now I am strong

I'm happy and I can thank myself
If it were up to you I'd be in my bed crying
I'm happy and I know that makes you sad
After everything you put me through
I'm finally getting over you
I'm happy
I'm happy

There's a reason why we met and I'm glad that we did, yeah yeah
But when we broke up I got back I part of me I really missed
Not saying that you brought me down all the time
There were moments I lived without lying on my side

I'm happy and I can thank myself
If it were up to you I'd be in my bed crying
I'm happy and I know that makes you mad

After everything you put me through
I'm finally getting over you
I'm happy
I'm happy

All the bitterness has passes
and I only wish you someone new, can do what I can't

I'm happy and I can thank myself
If it were up to you I'd be in my bed crying
I'm happy and I know that makes you mad
After everything you put me through
I'm finally getting over you
I'm happy
I'm happy

I'm happy and I can thank myself
If it were up to you I'd be in my bed crying
I'm happy and I know that makes you sad
After everything you put me through
I'm finally getting over you
I'm happy
I'm happy

Burned
What's wrong with me?
I get lonely in a crowd
Everyone is smiling
But I made myself left out

I got an imaginary shield around me
But nobody's ever really getting through
I keep thinking that they're gonna break me free
But they never do (no)

When somebody's knockin
When somebody wants me
When somebody's trying to love me completely
I get scared
Don't know how it works
Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned?
Don't wanna get burned

Is there thickness in the air?
Or are you heavy on my heart?
Why can't I just fit in?
Why can't I do what everyone else does?

People come around like a storm
When you least expect them to
For me I run for cover
When I should really face the truth

When somebody's knockin
When somebody wants me
When somebody's trying to love me completely
I get scared
Don't know how it works
Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned?

Don't wanna get burned

What's wrong with me?
I get lonely in a crowd
Everyone is smiling
But I made myself left out

When somebody's knockin
When somebody wants me
When somebody's trying to love me completely
I get scared
Don't know how it works
Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned?

When somebody's knockin
When somebody wants me
When somebody's trying to love me completely
I get scared
Don't know how it works
Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned?

I get scared (I get scared)
Don't know how it works (Don't know how it works)
Will somebody save me? (Will somebody save me?)
Or will I get burned? (Or will I get burned?)

I get scared (I get scared)
Don't know how it works (Don't know how it works)
Will somebody save me? (Will somebody save me?)
Or will I get burned? (Or will I get burned?)

I get scared (I get scared)
Don't know how it works (Don't know how it works)
Will somebody save me? (Will somebody save me?)
Or will I get burned?

Outside Of You
Can’t get your attention
And I’m so sick of it
I’ve got something to say to you
So shut up and listen
I don’t want you to look past me
I want you to know who I am
I hate it when you ignore me
You just don’t understand
See the funny thing is
You’re just as useless as me
I can make you better
If you would just let me in

Chorus
I’m outside of you
And I can’t get through
No more looking for beauty that’s dying inside me
Cant you see?
I’m outside of you
And I’m so confused
You keep missing the small things
The safety that love brings
Can’t you see?

I’m outside of you

You’re only plan to survive
It needs love and light to grow
I could be something beautiful
I guess you’ll never know
See the funny thing is
You’re just as lonely as me
We could be so much better
If you would just let me in

Repeat Chorus

And as you walk by me
I’m silently screaming to set me free
I look in the mirror
And I see your future
You look good with me
And as you walk by me
I’m silently screaming to set me free
I look in the mirror
And I see your future
You look good with me
Oh!

Repeat Chorus

That I’m outside of you
I’m outside of you

I Wish
Everyday it's getting worse not better
Maybe we should sit and finally talk
Cuz where were at it's hard to measure
When I'm standin in front of a wall, yeah

You wanna know why I look sad and lonely
You wanna know why I can barely talk, well
It's not your fault so let me say I'm sorry
For makin you the reason for my fall

[CHORUS]:

I wish that I could be like I was before
I was ridin high but now I'm feelin so low
I wish that you could make my world feel better
And take away the hurt so I won't be so far gone (yeah)

I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish, I wish

You always hurt the people closest to ya
Guess I blamed you for everything wrong
And I don't know why it's so hard to tell ya
I guess that's why I'm writing you this song, yeah

You wanna know why I look sad and lonely
You wanna know why I can barely talk, well
It's not your fault so let me say I'm sorry
For makin you the reason for my fall

[CHORUS]:

I wish that I could be like I was before
I was ridin high but now I'm feelin so low
I wish that you could make my world feel better
And take away the hurt so I won't be so far gone (yeah)

I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish, I wish

[CHORUS]:

I wish that I could be like I was before
I was ridin high but now I'm feelin so low
I wish that you could make my world feel better
And take away the hurt so I won't be so far gone

[CHORUS]:

I wish that I could be like I was before
I was ridin high but now I'm feelin so low
I wish that you could make my world feel better
And take away the hurt so I won't be so far gone (yeah)

I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish, I wish, (yeah)
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish, I wish

Play With Fire
I can't believe it's really you
Been so long, you look good
I hear you're doing really well
Don't ask me, let me tell you
How I've been since when you left
Since you left me for death

Finally every tear has dried
I've wiped you from my life

Do you remember all the times you said you'd call me
'Cause I remember all the reasons people warned me

And now I hear you saying that you still adore me
But if you think I'd ever get with you again
Then you can just

Love me, love me
Feed the flame
If you want me back again

Burn into the sky
Higher and higher
Baby, can you play with fire

(Burn into the sky)
Love me, love me
(Far into the sky)
If you want me

You never know just what you got
'Til it's gone, you freak out
But I'm not falling for that game
Boys like you never change
You made me feel I wasn't enough
Wasn't enough for your love

But it was insecurity that made you run
It wasn't me

So don't you sit there trying to
Give me more excuses
I don't have time for this
I'm off to play in Houston
And I'm too busy with the millions things I'm doing
You can't make up for what you've done
But you still try to be the one

Love me, love me
Feed the flame
If you want me back again

Burn into the sky
Higher and higher
Baby, can you play with fire

(Burn into the sky)
Love me, love me
(Far into the sky)
If you want me

Ooh, by the way, by the way
I've found someone who gives me space
Keeps me safe
Makes me sane
Found someone to take your place
Now I'm safe in his arms
And I decided only he can play with fire

Love me, Love me
Feed the flame
If you want me back again

Burn into the sky
Higher and higher
Baby, can you play with fire

I can't believe it's really you
(Love me, love me)
I hear you're doing really well
(If you want me)
Finally every tear has dried
(Love me, love me)
Can boys like you, boys like you
Play with fire
