Cinderella 03:31
As soon as she get back to town she’s gonna pack it all up She’s gonna wash her hands of those treaded ladies She’s gonna crash her magic carriage She’s gonna fake her death for the insurance and elope with the goblin king She gonna sell her shiny shoes to the pawn shop and get herself a car The king will say hey diamond girl can you go to corner and buy me a cigar? She says sure but I’ve heard that one before, what kinda girl you take me for? Say you’ll keep me around the house when we get old and crazy And I’m telling stories of days we used to kiss at royal parties Make me feel like that again and I’ll give ya this gold wrist watch So you can remember that time you saved my spirit She said you lost your mind before I met you You’re gonna drink that cup of poison that you switched with mine yea I saw you do it Yea I saw you do it when I looked away She flips a switch under the table to a secret trap door The king rolls atop his grave and drops a switchblade to the kitchen floor She says sure I’ll keep you in my mind if you keep me in yours What were you waiting for I loved you then and I love you still You’re a dream I didn’t know that I could have, I didn’t know it was real My sisters told me that I was a pill But I wanted to feel a thrill I left all my clothes and my chores I got a job at a grocery store And until that mouse became a horse And midnight screwed me in the divorce I didn’t know that I could feel such a force

Taking one step forward and two steps back Each time I feel like walking away I hear your words Saying come back home We'll turn it all around When I’m trying to make sense Trying to make sense of all the threads all up the air I think of how That you let me know we'll turn it all around I depend on your sweet love shining I’m beggin for your light to be near When my mind is feeling heavy enough You lift up my head Yea girl you carry your love Taking one step forward When you can’t look back for what you left behind ain’t there You show me why That you call me home To turn it all around Whats so wrong About having a dream, baby To turn it all around I depend on your sweet love shining I’m beggin for your light to be near When my mind is feeling heavy enough You lift up my head Yea girl you carry your love Yea you lift up my head and carry me girl Taking one step forward Taking two steps back each time I feel like walking away I hear your words Saying come back home I hear those words Saying come back home, baby I hear those words Saying come back home We'll turn it all around

I hear a voice soft as whispers The words still ringing between my ears A simple phrase the memory that a lullaby makes That I’ll never be never be alone again They say I’m crazy for taking counsel From any teeth that sting a gentle tone But I’ve found more than comfort from a moment so true That I’ll never be never be alone again A day without that warm little song Would be as cold as a window As if the song were not a rose My star will bloom for you today because you love me And you’ll never be never be alone again I hear that voice whistle warnings It sings my name out up on the stove And I watch it melt and shiver just so that I’d know That I’ll never be alone again A day without that warm little song Would be as cold as a window As if the song were not a rose My star will bloom for you today becuz you love me And you’ll never be never be alone again I hear a voice soft as whispers The words still ringing between my ears You’re name can change but your voice remains the same And ill never be alone again

Living in hysteria Treating your eyes like a violent dream A shot in the dark Water on a flaming tree You know what I mean Living in hysteria cruel minds behind the sound machine They got 3 poison darts 1 for you and 2 for me You know what I mean Reeling in America Theres no disguise for an angry face Theres no such disguise that makes a piece of metal fly You know what I mean Oh you can't hide You can't hide from the birthday boy

Beat 05:09
I could sing a song about the time it takes To hold on and hope you'll be the one But maybe there’s a finer brush and a brighter paint To illustrate the things that are to come I can hear the angels singin amazing grace I know now that things have just begun When do you want me to believe you're all that I need if my jackets on I could write a song about the things you say But what a way to wish I'd never sung Frankie said the word of God is a soft escape But he's quiet now so what's left to be done Is there any reason to believe you're all that I need When I've said it all And time and love just won't release And it just takes a minute to see That you really cut your teeth on misery Baby roll your wheels over me If your game is love then you got me beat I can hear the shot of what would begin the race But never saw the smoke rise from The gun Maybe there's more to prove than to match a pace But to Slow it down and crawl before we run When did you want me to believe you're all that I need When I've said it all And it just takes a minute to see That you really cut your teeth on misery Baby roll your wheels over me If your game is love then you got me beat I could sing a song about the time it takes To hold on and hope you'll be the one But maybe there’s a finer brush and a brighter paint To illustrate the things that are to come When did you want me to believe theres a heart on my sleeve when my jackets on and time and love won't get me And it just takes a minute to see That you really cut your teeth on misery Baby roll your wheels over me If your game is love then you got me beat If your game is love then you got me beat If your game is love then you got me beat If your game is love then you got me beat

I took a left I took a right I walked that circle that we talked last night Went in a ring just to start a fight But you never saw me standing there I took a fall I made a leap They stole my car but they left my keys now I’m crying in the middle of the street cause you never saw me standing there I may not know Love but I know lately That I’m no good (I'm no good) It’s not hard to notice We don’t treat each other like we should I followed all ff the leads I tracked down numbers and I scouted scenes I put an ad in your magazine But will you ever see me standing there I put an ear to the floor But your footsteps fade with every closing door What kinda heart could ever take much more We don’t hear each other anymore I may not know Love but I know lately That I’m no good (I'm no good) And I can’t describe a feeling that i never understood (understood) We had it real and honestly We found a love so easily Our life was the part of me in a dream Our life was the part of me in a dream I took a step outside Thought you’d stay and get another flight But you were gone before the morning light And I never saw you standing there We can’t describe a feeling that we never understood (understood) We had it real and honestly We found a love so easily Our life was the part of me in a dream Our life was the part of me in a dream We had it real and honestly We made a love so easily Our life was the part of me in a dream Our life was the part of me in a dream Our life was the part of me in a dream that never ends Our life was the part of me in a dream

Hindsight 03:28
Saying goodbye is hard enough But why'd you have to leave so soon Couldn't look you in the eye Or find the words To lead me back, lead me back to you And learning something beautiful has to die Don't make it right To open doors up just to stay inside Saying goodbye in New York City is a lonely ride Saying goodbye in a troubled love Humming like a distant train A torch song can't describe the way it hurts Before long you'll sing it just the same Leaving something beautiful behind Wont make it right to circle more of the same old line Saying goodbye in New York City is a lonely ride Saying goodbye is hard enough Without putting a face to what What you knew you'd lose in love I thought we could disguise and make it work But I was wrong, I never had enough And learning something beautiful has to die Don't make it right To paint our portrait in just black and white So much time is wasted in the hindsight

It might as well be up to you To write that little song review Listen and you just might take to some of it Be the judge and tell me if it’s relevant Relevant to you If you have the time to sit through a side And your record players coming alive Turn it up to seven for the hell of it Try and figure out just what’s relevant About it all Oh I'm down to the bottom of your wishing list Oh I'm down to the bottom I'll be fine, just fine If I had something to show for it Might as well be up to you To leave an apple at my statue Leave a tribute right where Helen fell for it Paint that brat Paris so impressionist That you can’t tell who Like Ulysses on the ocean white I’ll ride home to my naked wife Tell her of the gods that we should revel in And she’ll say which comedians are still relevant Enough for you Oh I’m down to the bottom of the raffle ball Oh I’m down to bottom I’ll be fine, just fine If I could give a little more than this A second wind A high five If I had something to show for it Another bridge About time That I gave a little more than this Might as well be up to you To slay that devils point of view Cut it up to pieces, mail it heaven sent Take that mad red marker, mark it delicate Adressed to you baby
