Love As We Know It

Why do I look for love at the wrong times? (X2)
Just because I cover my eyes, doesn't mean you'll disappear
You're still here, you're still here
And all the while I meant something else
And all the time I spent on nothing else
Proves the thought that life goes by
And that love as we know it
Is compromised
'Cause love as we know it seems so contrived
And I don't wanna cry anymore
Out of the door
Out of the window
Out of the closet
The things I abhor
I'm throwing out
Out to the wind
Out of the door
Out of the window
Out of the closet
The things I adore
I'm holding out
'Til I'm home again

Break Away

Trust me, trust me, trust me in the night
Trust me, trust me, trust me it’ll be alright soon
Trust me, trust me, trust me when you wake up
Trust me, trust me, trust me it’ll break
It’ll break away
It was just a mistake anyway
It’ll break away
It was just a mistake that you made
Trust me, trust me, trust me through the pain
Trust me, trust me, trust me it’ll start to fade away eventually
Trust me, trust me, trust me ‘cause you can’t see out now
Trust me, trust me, trust me that I know what I’m talking about
Trust me, trust me, trust me in the night
Trust me, trust me, trust me it’ll be alright soon
Trust me, trust me, trust me when you wake up
Trust me, trust me, trust me it’ll break
It’ll break away
It was just a mistake anyway
It’ll break away
It was just a mistake that you made
Just walk away
Just let the chips fall
Where they may

Overgrown

When I was young, I thought about the sky
I wondered who I was and then I wondered why
And when I found out, I started to cry
'Cause you won't make it to heaven unless you deny
The basic fundamentals of this peculiar human life
I'm overgrown like a garden left untamed
So unruly, free from choosing, so the darkness goes away
But there will be hell to pay
Oh, there will be hell to pay
Walking through the field where the wild flowers sway
Through the wind I hear the whisper, "little girl, you must obey"
So I took off my shoes and I took off my socks
I put my hands in the river to rub all my make up off
In one hand I am beautiful - beautiful and bright
I am one with all creation, I am lovely and alive
In the other I am ugly, I am lifeless I am dry
'Cause I entertained the whisper, the one that told me that I...
I want to be overgrown
I want to be exposed
I want to know and to be known
I don't want to be alone
But to express my deepest regret
Is to risk losing everyone

Blaming You

Being afraid is the best place to be
Though initially, it's harder than it should be
To veer off into the wild of the heart
It's actually the safest place to start
So I'm blaming you
For all the things you do
For what you put me through
But in truth, I'm thanking you
I'm thanking you for
Making me face the things
I never wanted to
I'm thanking you for
Looking at me the same
When I didn't look at you
I'm thanking you for
Letting me run away
Letting me grow and change
When all the while it was only you
Who really knew

This is a song for the mourning
When you’ve just got nothing left
This is a song for redemption
When you just needed a friend
To tell you that it’s not the end
To show you stars at night past 10:00
‘Cause the hardest part wasn’t letting go of you
The hardest part was letting go too soon
This is a song for the morning
‘Cause the night’s never enough
This is a song for the quiet rides
When you don’t want to think too much
When you don’t want to drink too much
Of your lies
The hardest part wasn’t letting go of you
The hardest part was letting go too soon
The hardest part wasn’t standing in front of you
The hardest part was wondering ‘could I still love you?’
I was wondering, ‘could I still love you the way that I used to?’
