Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay a while
And she will be loved
I'm hurting baby, I'm broken down
I need your loving, loving I need it now
When I'm without you, I'm something weak
You got me begging, begging I'm on my knees
Hey, kid, don't quit your daydream yet
I know you feel locked out in the cold
Seems like you’re lost and alone
Hey, kid, don't listen to your head
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
And we'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends
And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by TV shows
What the hell is ADD?
My friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
Say it ain't so
I will not go
Turn the lights off
Carry me home
But everybody's gone
And I've been here for too long
To face this on my own
Well, I guess this is growing up
I'm a wreck, I'm out of time
I barely made it out alive
I'm not bent, I'm not cracked
I'm just broken
Please don't look at me with those eyes
Please don't hint that you're capable of lies
I dread the thought of our very first kiss
A target that I'm probably gonna miss
It's so hard to say, 'I'm sorry,' it's so hard to self reflect
Make the world a better place, I'll put a bullet in my head
All my life I broke everything I touched
Like my damn phone screen so I don't hear it when it ring
I wouldn't answer anyway, I'm afraid of conversations
They only lead to temptation
This my eulogy, dig into the roots of me
Look into a serpent's eyes, I can spot my enemies
I can hear a butterfly's wings, you niggas centipedes
A den of vipers and thieves, you ain't no friend of me
I'ma moonwalk like Mike tonight
Knock a nigga out like a Tyson fight
My cousin got locked for the China White
I'ma make a mill' 'fore I'm 25
Got that taste of the good life
I just fade in the moonlight
Niggas only hate when you do right
Everything changed, got a new life
And when you smile
You change the weather
And I ain't seen the sun in a while
But together
You know that old saying
'Bout a bird and a feather
I just hope we last forever
We could run away forever
Our broken pieces
They fit together
I made major changes to myself
I am still a danger to myself
Still might grab the stainless off the shelf
But I don't really think I'm finished yet
I appreciate the way you watch me, I can't lie
I drop it down, I pick it up, I back it off the county line
I fell from Heaven, now I'm living like a devil
You can't get me off your mind
Keep my name out your mouth
I know what you about
Uh, don't call me angel when I'm a mess
Don't call me angel when I get undressed
You know I, I don't like that, boy
Uh, I make my money, and I write the checks
So say my name with a little respect
All my girls successful, and you're just our guest
I feel you crumble in my arms down to your heart of stone
You bled me dry just like the tears you never show
Why don't you take what you want from me?
Take what you need from me
Take what you want and go
Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love and forget how to hate
I've listened to preachers, I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role
Your life style to me seemed so tragic
With the thrill of it all
You fooled all the people with magic
You waited on Satan's call
You made me cry, you told me lies
But I can't stand to say goodbye
Mama, I'm coming home
I could be right, I could be wrong
It hurts so bad, it's been so long
Mama, I'm coming home
I'm just a dreamer, I dream my life away
I'm just a dreamer who dreams of better days
Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her sometime
I took them stones you threw, made chains for the crew
I brought up ten hoes, this coupe only made for two
I never needed anything from you
And all I ever asked was for the truth
You showed your tongue and it was forked in two
Your venom was lethal, I almost believed you
Growing up, parents got me a guitar
Said 'you can do anything, kid, you can go far
You can be the president, fireman, race cars
The sky's the limit, kid, so, shoot for the stars'
Know what I want, so I'll take it on
I've made mistakes but mistakes make you strong
Who the fuck are you to tell me what to do?
I don't give a damn if you say you disapprove
I'm gonna make my move, I'm gonna make it soon
And I'll do it 'cause it's what I want to fucking do
You got one life, so live it right
Keep your friends tight and your family in sight
Never cease to fight for the things you think are right
'cause you just might find you control your own mind
And let's be honest, life's a competition
So, if I'm going to play, then I'm gon' play to win it
I refuse to sit and rot at a desk all day
Unless I have a passion I'm working towards, okay
Everybody knows that I'm breaking down
Everybody knows I ain't fakin' now
Everybody knows my heart's vacant now
Yeah, she hates me now, I made mistakes, but now
I don't ever wanna be alone, I don't really ever feel at home
My mama don't like you and she likes everyone
And I never like to admit that I was wrong
And I've been so caught up in my job, didn't see what's going on
But now I know, I'm better sleeping on my own
'Cause if you like the way you look that much
Oh baby you should go and love yourself
And if you think that I'm still holdin' on to somethin'
You should go and love yourself
'Cause you're just a man
It's just what you do
Your head in your hands
As you color me blue
All the good girls go to Hell
'Cause even God herself has enemies
And once the water starts to rise
And Heaven's out of sight
She'll want the Devil on her team
Seasons change and our love went cold
Feed the flame 'cause we can't let go
Run away, but we're running in circles
Run away, run away
And the birds don't sing, no, they don’t make a sound
When you're six feet underground
So I look to the sky, tell me why, tell me why
Do they all get to live, and I have to die?
And the angels sing, let it shine, let it shine
Dry the teardrops from my eyes
And the bells will ring when the blind lead the blind
'Cause the dead can't testify
I wanna go to college for the rest of my life
Sip Bankers Club, and drink Miller Lite
On Thirsty Thursday and Tuesday Night Ice
And I can get pizza a dollar a slice
A constellation of tears on your lashes
Burn everything you love
Then burn the ashes
In the end everything collides
My childhood spat back out the monster that you see
And she was blinded by the light
Oh, cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
She got down but she never got tight, but she'll make it alright
You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
'Til you spend half your life just coverin' up
You ain't my boyfriend
And I ain't your girlfriend
But you don't want me to see nobody else
And I don't want you to see nobody
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
Sapphire moonlight
We danced for hours in the sand
Tequila Sunrise
Her body fit right in my hand
I love it when you call me señorita
I wish I could pretend I didn't need ya
Now I got a few rings on, Jupiter skating
I meant to say Saturn, switched up the pattern
Smoking on some shatter
Got me higher than a ladder
