I’m picking words as I go Holding my breath till I show Building a fence for my sense Looks like I’m ready to grow And if you meet me tonight Don’t let me out of your sight I’m picking words as I go I’m picking words as I go Come out and give me a kiss Be the one to teach me this The wait is too much to take And I’m starting to miss The sounds you make at night Grabbing my fingers so tight I’m picking words as I go I’m picking words as I go You surely know how to take Then my body starts to shake Come up with tricks for your fix Every time I take the bait So if you call me again I won’t pick up, I’ll pretend You surely know how to take You surely know how to take It’s time to clean up the mess Cuz I’m starting to love you less No use in trying to seduce Putting on a short dress Love from the moment we met There’s not an ounce of regret You surely know how to take You surely know how to take I’m picking words as I go Holding my breath till I show Building a fence for my sense Looks like I’m ready to grow And if you meet me tonight Don’t let me out of your sight I’m picking words as I go

The Map 03:16
Sip slow and have a taste Of what’s on my mind Something to dedicate On radio time According to the map You have no direction It’s time to face the facts And show me affection Some boys are passing by They all wanna be you I wonder why I try I wonder what to do Now that I know you Down to your toes Trail of a teardrop Shows Sleep on the master bed And see what you dream of Rumors about you said You knew where to get love After the morning prayer I wonder who heard me Would it be possible To find me and soothe me Now that I know you Down to your toes Trail of a teardrop Shows

Detox 03:22
Caress my mind And tap my back Oh won’t you remind me? What we had once Now is painted black Don’t you come around me I know I was Your second hand Now who’s going to hold you? It might’ve seemed Like a better plan Everybody told you Now we’re Locked in a box Stuck in detox Forever Now we’re Rubber and glue I stuck on you Forever Less than a day More than a year Good to see you waiting I’m checking twice And staying clear Only now I’m faking Caress my mind And tap my back Oh won’t you remind me? What we had once Now is painted black Don’t you come around me Now we’re Locked in a box Stuck in detox Forever Now we’re Rubber and glue I stuck on you Forever

Repeat 03:15
You’re always wondering where to sleep And every night you smell a different sheet Stories you say go on repeat Flattering words that make your heart sick Ah ah ah Flattering words that make your heart sick Ah ah ah Now all the flavors taste the same You’re kissing heavens that forgot your name No matter how you flip the frame Another picture makes the hall of shame Ah ah ah Another picture makes the hall of shame Ah ah ah Kissing Slapping Choking Dancing Hearing the sirens is a trap And all these stories make your sunshines black Oh how i need you to attack And find your way inside my twisted map Ah ah ah And find your way inside my twisted map Ah ah ah Kissing Slapping Choking Dancing

Wait On Me 04:27
Crack on my back and it’s hard to move Going too fast and I have to prove I’m worthy I’m worthy Shaking my ass like a chipmunk Looking at you brings the funk back Are you with me? You’re with me You’re with me Hey babe, don’t you wait on me Hey babe, don’t you wait on me Don’t you wait on me Little too much is about to turn Again and again when am I to learn Pretty baby My baby Mother ship calls and I’m out the door My favorite one how you come for more How you come For more You come for more Hey babe, don’t you wait on me Hey babe, don’t you wait on me Don’t you wait on me Crack on my back and it’s hard to move Going too fast and I have to prove I’m worthy I’m worthy Shaking my ass like a chipmunk Looking at you brings the funk back Are you with me? You’re with me You’re with me Hey babe, don’t you wait on me Hey babe, don’t you wait on me Don’t you wait on me Don’t you wait on me

Born in a field And made to attack I look at the skies And never wear black I seem a bit old But I’m not too young The child inside me Is showing it’s tongue Worry I don’t No matter how strange It’s only a game Of minimum range I carry my coat I carry yours too I hold on your hand I know we are through Minutes from now A day like today You won’t feel a thing The sun and the rain Don’t ask about me I know it’s a trick Your shadow moves fast I can’t see your feet Burn on the sun Fly on the moon Take out your gun Shoot me as soon as I walk away Faster than you Running to find Something to do Born in a field And made to attack I look at the skies And never wear black I seem a bit old But I’m not too young The child inside me Is showing it’s tongue I was made to attack I was I was made to attack I was I was made to attack I was I was made to attack I was

How does it feel when you go Looking around you Walking like you know Holding a wet cigarette Buddy, you’re asking for trouble I bet Lonely your woman decides Having them children Telling them lies Hoping it’s all for the best Buddy, you left me and now I feel blessed Brothers and sis People I have missed I had a dream you were in We were in love and you let me win Could it be something I drew Buddy, you came back and now I feel new Brothers and sis People I have missed

Last minute boy You feel like a toy I press on your chest Your voice is the best When I saw you All wrapped up I knew I had to have you All shiny and new Trying your best To keep me impressed You fall then you rise And sometimes disguise Last minute boy You charge like a toy Your strength has gone down You poor little clown Ah ah ah My friends are jealous of you They have no clue what we do How can I explain all these games That put us both up in flames? Don’t run away I thought we could play A game that I know It’s called “hit and go” First comes the look That makes your knees hurt And then comes the kiss The one you had missed Ah ah ah My friends are jealous of you They have no clue what we do How can I explain all these games That put us both up in flames?

Rushing to the bed and find myself on the floor Trying to listen to your song with my nose on the door Now I’m driving to your house with my feet on the wheel But I lost the chance I had to steal something real Something real Something real I don’t understand why you laugh all the time If I try to hold your hand like it’s some kind of crime I would show you mine and that was the deal But I lost the chance I had to steal something real Something real Something real I mess up Like a rookie I always hop When you call me I feel so small Like you know me I feel so small Like you know me Looks like everything could be done otherwise But I’m sticking to the plan till I run out of tries I would show you mine and that was the deal But I lost the chance I had to steal something real Something real Something real I mess up Like a rookie I always hop When you call me I feel so small Like you know me I feel so small Like you know me

Libya 03:57
Give me a coin I’ll make a fortune Out of nothing at all I’ll go through deserts But you won’t see me crawl And if I meet you on the way I’ll be whole Somebody said You had to leave So you packed up your bags Went overseas Out to Libya land You started off by making Holes in the sand
