Heartbeat

You don’t know how many nights I’ve slept alone
Staring at the light creep from my phone
Keeping me awake, waiting for a taste.
Are you at home waiting for the rain to turn to snow
Well baby it’s a shame that you don’t know
You’re looking for a sign, it’s been here all this time
So bring your body closer to me
Let me see your heart heart heart strings
Bring your lips closer to me
let me taste your heart heart heart beat (2x)
You don’t know how many times I’ve tried to let you go
I should drive away but I’m too slow
Keep looking behind for you near the green light
Are you at home trying to hide away in your shadows
Well baby it’s a shame you can’t be bold
If all you do is wait then all you’ll do is ache
Chorus
They say love is patient and kind
But I’ve been losing my mind and I’m feeling mean
You just want the rush of the drug
Without the dull of the in between
Well I know pain comes and goes
it’s not a constant needle prick
If you’re scared of the way that it flows
then baby you’re never gonna really live
Chorus

They Say

They say it’s not the same thing but it’s close enough
They say you should be patient but it isn’t what you want
And the dreams they won’t come cause you’re living on crumbs
You don’t wanna, don’t wanna keep running, you wanna stand still
You don’t wanna don’t wanna keep running, you wanna stand still
Oh you just want, oh you just want freedom
You need some, right now
Oh you just want, oh you just want freedom
You need some, right now
They say it’s all in the way you walk and talk
If they come for all of your love, then it's your fault
And the time has to come when they see what they’ve done
Chorus
They call you a bad dude, they call you a thug
Used to swing you from trees, now they hunt you with their guns
But you're fathers and brothers, cousins and sons
(oh) When's that change gonna come?
Yeah when's that change gonna come?
Chorus

You and Me

It’s not that hard to find a little peace of mind
Lay here by my side, I’ll distract from the bad kind of thoughts
that scribble round your head, black out the happiness
we’ll make our own instead and we’ll never have to make this bed
If you want notebook hearts, hand painted mason jars
then I’m not your kind of girl
But if you like to stay up late make fun of people we both hate
then we could build our own little world
We is just you and me
Oh I know it's such a big, strange word
We is just you and me
Don't be scared of two letters together,
it’s not as hard, it's not as hard as you’ve heard
It’s not that hard to lie we do it all the time
Say everything is fine while our hearts break and leak around inside
But if you’d let me just dust off your rusty trust
Then maybe we could hush and not be scared of the quiet
If you want casual, drive through ice cream cones
then I’m not your kind of girl
But if you like to stay up late talk about our childhoods and mortal fates
then we can start a whole little world
Chorus
Maybe I’m a mess, maybe you’re a mess and maybe that’s the best part
Cause when you, when I undress all I see is your heart
Chorus

Growing Up

It’s been a long, long year ain't that right darling
Don’t know how I got here and i’m still wandering
It’s been a hot, hot couple of nights, going to bed in my t-shirt
Praying for change when I turn out the lights but you know it still burns
And I thought, oh I thought by now
I’d have I’d have it figured out
But I’m still growing, I’m still growing
I’m still growing, up oh, oh
I'm still growing, I’m still growing
I’m still growing up oh, oh
It’s been a long, long time ain’t that right mama
Since I felt like I was mine and not just borrowed?
It’s been a rough, rough couple of months
Going to bed with a heartache
Looking for peace when my head hits the sheets
But you've to bend to feel the break
And I thought, oh I thought by now
I’d have, I’d have it figured out
Chorus
And I thought, oh I thought by now
I’d have, I’d have me figured out
But I’m still chasing myself around
Hoping the lost can find their own way to be found.

Stop

You just walk in, I make you smile
It's cool but you don't even know me
You take an inch, I run a mile
Can't win you're always right behind me
And we know that you could go and find some other
Take or leave it or just don't even bother
Caught in a craze, it's just a phase
Or will this be around forever
Don't you know it's going too fast
Racing so hard you know it won't last
Don't you know why can't you see
Slow it down, read the sign
So you know just where you're going
Stop right now thank you very much
I need somebody with a human touch
Hey you always on the run
Gotta slow it down baby, gotta have some fun
Ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba
say we'll be together
And we know that you can go and find some other
Take or leave it 'cause we've always got each other
You know who you are and yes, you're gonna breakdown
You've crossed the line so you're gonna have to turnaround
Don't you know it's going too fast
Racing so hard you know it won't last
Don't you know why can't you see
Slow it down, read the sign
So you know just where you're going
Stop right now thank you very much
I need somebody with a human touch
Hey you always on the run
Gotta slow it down baby, gotta have some fun
Gotta keep it down honey, lay your back on the line
'Cause I don't care about the money, don't be wasting my time
You need less speed, get off my case
You gotta slow it down baby, just get out of my face
Stop right now thank you very much
I need somebody with a human touch
Hey you always on the run
Gotta slow it down baby, gotta have some fun
Stop right now thank you very much
I need somebody with a human touch
Hey you always on the run
Gotta slow it down baby, gotta have some fun
Gotta have some fun, gotta have some fun, oh
Gotta have some fun, oh
Gotta have some fun, you gotta have some fun, oh
Gotta have some fun.
