Dump Him 02:35
I know you’re waiting for the one to come along You got a feeling something might be wrong And I hope you see that you’re worth so much more Don’t play this game, walk away and shut the door He stalls, no calls, he’ll still fuck you He will never, never love you Meet him, call him, send a letter Leave him, girl you can do better He lied and now you’re crying yet again You try to change him, but you gotta look within And I hope you see that you’re worth so much more Don’t play this game, walk away and shut the door He stalls, no calls, he’ll still fuck you He will never, never love you Meet him, call him, send a letter Leave him, girl you can do better There are more fish in the sea But you get hooked every time I hope you can set yourself free You do deserve to be happy He stalls, no calls, he’ll still fuck you He will never, never love you Meet him, call him, send a letter Leave him, girl you can do better

Fall Apart 03:26
I drink alone But shots just sting without you here It’s a long walk home And it doesn’t feel like home either ‘Cause I don’t see you anymore You’re miles away, I’m underground Remember how we were before? Those times are tattered photos now This is how we fall apart This is how we fall apart So I called you up My hands shake waiting for the beep You were down on your luck You said “thanks for thinking of me.” Lonely hearts laid bare Your words hung on the line mid air I didn’t know what to say Said “I’ll make some time, next time, maybe.” ‘Cause I don’t see you anymore You’re miles away, I’m underground Remember how we were before? Those times are tattered photos now This is how we fall apart This is how we fall apart This is how we fall apart This is how we break our hearts I hung up the phone We’re made of stone, or maybe glass So we’ll drink alone Locked in your house, in the past ‘Cause I don’t see you anymore You’re miles away, I’m underground Remember how we were before? Those times are tattered photos now This is how we fall apart This is how we fall apart This is how we fall apart This is how we break our hearts

I’m a productive member of society I’m a productive member of society So long as I get a little more Than what I had before So long as I stay on top Doesn’t matter if it’s rotten Fraying at the seams I sleep so well at night Why should I put up a fight? I’m a productive member of society I’m a productive member of society I know mistakes were made, but don’t blame me I’m a productive member of society My mind and my house are full of stuff That I don’t need or want I’ll warm my hands as the world burns Turn the channel Keep on turn turning, turning, turn away I sleep so well at night Why should I put up a fight? I’m a productive member of society I’m a productive member of society I know mistakes were made, but don’t blame me I’m a productive member of society

Carolyn 02:59
She’s got the best intentions A good home and affection Cannot complete with his attention Been waiting for this day to come He trusts her, she’s the only one They’ll change the world fill it with love We’ll do great things together She’s mesmerized, light as a feather His words and eyes keep her tethered Been waiting for this day to come She’s lost her way, the fall’s begun It’s destiny, they’re the chosen ones Hey! Let’s take a sip together We’re monsters now and forever So seductive, this power Been waiting for this day to come It hits so fast no one can run She’ll follow him to Hell and then some

1AM Radio 04:44
Turn off the lights Turn up the sound There’s finally no one else around You can’t take my pain away But you know what it is We are broken in the same place It’s 1am And I can’t take anymore I heard your song and I’m better than before It’s 1am and I can’t take any more I heard your song and I’m better than before I heard your song and I’m better than before Turn off the lights Turn up the sound There’s finally no one else around No one knows I’m here I’ve been waiting, the coast is clear It’s 1am And I can’t take anymore I heard your song and I’m better than before It’s 1am and I can’t take any more I heard your song and I’m better than before I heard your song and I’m better than before Can you take me far from here? Can you take me so far from here? Can you take me far from here?
