yeay for the song lyrics!
~~The never ending luv of Sugarcult~~
Pretty Girl (The Way)
Pretty girl is suffering, while he confesses everything
Pretty soon she'll figure out what his intentions were about
That's what you get for falling again
You can never get 'em out of your head
It's the way
That he makes you feel
It's the way
That he kisses you
It's the way
That he makes you fall in love
She's beautiful as usual with bruises on her ego and
Her killer instinct tells her to beware of evil men
And that's what you get for falling again
You can never get 'em out of your head
And that's what you get for falling again
You can never get 'em out of your head
It's the way
That he makes you feel
It's the way
That he kisses you
It's the way
That he makes you fall in love
It's the way
That he makes you feel
It's the way
That he kisses you
It's the way
That he makes you fall in love
Love
Pretty girl, pretty girl
Pretty girl is suffering, while he confesses everything
Pretty soon she'll figure out
You can never get 'em out of your head
It's the way
That he makes you cry
It's the way
That he in your mind
It's the way
That he makes you fall in love
It's the way
That he makes you feel
It's the way
That he kisses you
It's the way
That he makes you fall in love
Love
Bouncing Off The Walls
I'm bouncing off the walls again
I'm looking like a fool again
I threw away my reputation
One more song for the radio station
I'm bouncing off the walls again
I'm looking like a fool again
Waking up on the bathroom floor
Pull myself together just to fall once more
And my heart's still beating out of my chest
And this town is still making me sick
And every penny from my last paycheck
I've blown on you
I'm bouncing off the walls again
I'm looking like a fool again
So go ahead and take a picture
And hang it up so you can tear me down
I don't care
Cause I'm still here
And I've got nothing to lose
With all the years I wasted on you
Mom and Daddy got the best cocaine
Ritalin's never gonna feel the same
Twenty-four hours on an empty brain
I got my finger on the trigger and you're in the way
I'm bouncing off the walls again
I'm looking like a fool again
I threw away my reputation
One more song for the radio station
I'm bouncing off the walls again
I'm looking like a fool again
I'm bouncing off the walls again
I'm looking like a fool again
I'm bouncing off the walls again
Saying Goodbye
She kisses everyone goodbye
And waves her middle finger high
They're never gonna mess with her again
The drama queen is seventeen
And sleeping with boys for free
She's got a reputation of being easy
Everytime they put her down, she makes a fist and the tears roll down
She packs her bags and plans to run away
She's saying goodbye and leaving tonight
She's wasted all her lonely tear drops
She's saying goodbye and leaving tonight
She's used up all her lonely tear drops now
She thinks about herself and cares about nobody else
because the only friends she has all put her down
They hate her when she's beautiful and even more when she's a fool
They talk behind her back when it's her birthday
Everytime they put her down, she makes a fist and the tears roll down
She packs her bags and plans to run away
And everytime she makes a friend, the vicous cycle starts again
She's never, ever, ever looking back
She's saying goodbye and leaving tonight
She's wasted all her lonely tear drops
She's saying goodbye and leaving tonight
She's used up all her lonely tear drops now
She's saying goodbye, she's wasted all her loney tear drops
Saying goodbye, she's used up all her lonely tear drops now
Everytime they put her down, she makes a fist and the tears roll down
She packs her bags and plans to run away from here
And everytime she makes a friend, the vicous cycle starts again
She's never, ever, ever looking back
She's saying goodbye and leaving tonight
She's wasted all her lonely tear drops
She's saying goodbye and leaving tonight
She's used up all her lonely tear drops now
She's wasted all her lonely tear drops now

Truly Madly Deeply
I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly Madly Deeply Do
I will be strong, I will be faithful
Coz I'm counting on
A new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning (yeah)
I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
And when the stars are shining
Brightly in the velvet sky
I'll make a wish send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the
Pleasure in the certainty
That we're surrounded
By the comfort and protection of
The highest powers
In lonely hours
The tears devour you
I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
Oh can you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
Coz it's standing right before you
All that you need will surely come
I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly Madly Deeply Do
I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
Crash And Burn
When you feel all alone
And the world has turned it's back on you
Give me a moment please
To tame your wild, wild heart
I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you
It's hard to find relief and people can be so cold
When darkness is upon your door and you feel like you can't
Take anymore
Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
When you feel all alone
And a loyal friend is hard to find
You're caught in a one-way street
With the monsters in your head
When hopes and dreams are far away and
You feel like you can't face the day
Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
Because there has always been heartache and pain
And when it's over you'll breathe again
You'll breathe again
When you feel all alone
And the world has turned it's back on you
Give me a moment please
To tame your wild, wild heart
Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
I Knew I Loved You
Maybe it's intuition
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
And there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
There's just no rhyme or reason
Only this sense of completion
And in your eyes
I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
A thousand angels dance around you
I am complete now that I've found you
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life

Rapid Hope Loss
You called to say you wanted out
Well, I can't say I blame you now
Sometimes you've got to fold vefore you're found out
Well thanks for waiting this long to show yourself
'Cause now that I can see you
I don't think you're worth a second glance
So much for all the promises you made, they served you well
Now you're gone and they're wasted on me
So much for your endearing sense of charm, it served you well
Now it's just worn and wasted on me
I guess that all you've got is all you're gonna get
As Lovers Go
She said, "I've got to be honest, you're wasting your time if you're
fishin' around here"
And I said, "You must be mistaken, I'm not foolin' this feelin' is real"
She said, "You've gotta be crazy! What do you take me for? Some kind of easy mark?"
"No, you've got wtis, you've got looks, you've got passion
But I swear that you've got me all wrong"
I'll be true, I'll be useful, I'm be cavalier, I'll be your's my dear
I'll belong to you if you just let me through
This is easy as lovers go, so don't complicate it by hesitating
This is wonderful as loveing goes
This is tailor-made, what's the sense in waiting?
I said, "I've got to be honest, I've been waiting for you all my life"
For so long I thought I was asylum bound
But just seeing you makes me think twice
And being with you here makes me sane
I fear I'll go crazy if you leave my side
"You've got wits, you've got looks, you've got passion
But are you brave enough to leave with me tonight?"
Carry This Picture
Carry this picture for luck, kept in a locket
Tucked in your collar, close to your chest
Make it a secret, shown to the closest friends
And meet me at quarter to seven
The sun will still shine then at this time of year
We'll head to the inlet, and we'll share a bottle there
And color the coast with your smile
It's the most genuine thing I've ever seen
I was so lost, but now, I believe
And follow me south of the big docks
Where they tether the boats
The rich men revere as so important
The hire our fathers to steer
And down to the edge of the water
Where we'll spill our guts
And we'll name our fears, I'll give you this picture
Keep it and don't be scared
And color the coast with your smile
It's the most genuine thing I've ever seen
I was lost, but now, I believe in the coast
Your smile is the most genuine thing I've ever seen
I was lost, but now, I believe
Bend and Not Break
I catalog these steps now, decisive and intentioned
Precise and patterned specifically to your's
I'm talented at breathing, expecially exhaling
So that my chest will rise and fall with your's
I'm careful not to wake you, fearing conversation
It's better just to hold you and kepp pacified
I'm talented with reason, I cover all the angles
I can't fail before I ever try
Try to understand, there is an old mistake that fools will make
And I'm the king of them, pushing everything that's good away
So won't you hold me ? I will not bend, I will not break
Won't you hold me now? For you I rise, for you I fall
I am fairly agile, I can bend and not break
Or I can break and take it with a smile
And I am so resilient, I recover quickly
I'll convince you soon that I am fine
Ghost of a Good Thing
I guess it's luck, but it's the same hard luck
You've been trying to tame
Maybe it's love but it's like you said...
Love is like a role that we play
But I believe in you so much
I could die for the words that you say
But you're chasing the ghost of a good thing
Haunting yourself,
As the real thing is getting away from you again
while you're chasing ghosts
Just bend the pieces 'till they fit
Like they were made for it
But they weren't made for this
No, they weren't made for this
Am I Missing
Sharp disaster in a fresh new coma
Was it worth it when it was over?
Proving yourself right
You'd make the biggest noise
Well, I'd lock my hands behind my head
I'd cover my heart and hit the deck
I'd brace myself for the impact if I were you
It's a long wait for an answer
Is there any news? Is there any word?
Was there trauma? Or a struggle?
Am I missing? Or was the body found?
Is there anything worth looking for?
Worth loving for? Worth lying for?
Is there anything worth waiting for?
Worth living for? Worth dying for?
Morning Calls
Morning calls for pain relief
A line above the step beneath
The worst that you could do
And the best that you could hope for, is hardly the best
Tepid waters chase the pills
With turpentine and chamomile
And don't get cheap with the wine
You need to be up all of the time
Shield you eyes, conceal your lies
Don't blink, everyone's watching
They'll think you're up to something
They need for you to be everything
That they cannot be themselves
Carve Your Heart Out Yourself
Carve your heart out yourself
Hopelissness is your cell
Since you've drawn out these lines
Are you protected from trying times?
Man, it takes a silly girl
To lie about the dreams she has
But lord, it takes a lonely one
To wish that she had never dreamt them at all
Oh look now, there you go with hope again
Oh you're so sure that I'll be leaving in the end
Dig your ditch deep enough
To keep you clear of the sun
You've been burned more than once
You don't think much of trust
Oh look now, there you go with hope again
But I'll be sure your secret's safe with me
Oh you're so sure that I'll be leaving in the end
You're treating me like I'm already gone
But I'm not, I will star where you are, always
So Beautiful
I heard that you were home again
But you don't look like you're back to me
With your focuses changing
Your gaze is transfixed on a point that I can't often see
You've got your new ties, I've got my old knots
You've got your inside line
But you're never happy with what you've got
Careful now, you're so beautiful
When you've convinced yourself
The no one else is quite as beautiful
I heard that you were living well
But you don't look like you're living to me
Though the sparkle is gone, your smile is in place
So that everyone watching will see
You've got them all convinced
But I know so well that you could list your friends
But you can't count on them
Hold it now, you've got everyone convinced
That you're alright when no one else is quite as vulnerable
As soon as you've got it you want something else
It's not the sale that you love, it's the sell
I's not the price that's gonna cost you
It's just the weight that's gonna bring you down
Hey Girl
Hey girl, you've got a smart way about you
That makes me wish that I was smart enough for you
Hey girl, you've got a fine laugh
And I think that I could get used to that
And you're already used to laughing at me
Well, so what if your friends think I'm crazy
I wasn't trying to impress those girls nayway
They're all theory, no action
And where I come from we live like it's the latest attraction
Hey girl, you've got a short fuse
And I've got designs on lighting you up
And setting you off
And watching you burn for me
The world lives for the weekend
Well, I'll watch as my weeks bleed right into them
Without a line to divide what is their's
And what is mine
Go on, go on, your cruel intentions
Won't solve your problems
Everyone's gotta get bottom
Bottomed out in the long run
And those are the times you need love
If You Can't Let It Be, Might As Well Make It Bleed
What you found sure upset you
Never sat it coming did you?
It's easy to be surprised
With both your eyes sewn closed
Handled with great precision
Another faultless execution
You're the subject of this exhibition
A willing cadaver, a willing cadaver
Scalpled, stutured, made whole again
These cuts are leaving crease
Trace the scars, fir the pieces
To tell your story, you don't need to say a word
Call off the cavalry
You can't save a wretch like me
Clean this with kerosene
If you can't leave it be, might as well make it bleed
Scalpled, stutured, made whole again
Your wires are frayed, can't fire right
You look better when out of sight
You were not made to stand and fight
There's something better wrong with you
Your pulse is anemic, you're tired of the fire
You're bruising too easy, and falling behind
And no one is waiting for you
Call off your quarentine
You can't save the rest from me
Clean this with kerosene
If you can't leave it be, might as well make it bleed
Several Ways to Die Trying
Pacific sun, you should have warned us, it gets cold here
And the night can freeze before you set it on fire
And our flames go unnoticed
Diminished, faded just as soon as ther are fired
We are, we are, intrigued. We are, we are, invisible
Oh, how we've shouted, how we've screamed
Take notice, take interest, take me with you
But all our fears on deaf ears
Tonight, they're burning the roads they built to lead us to the light
And blinding our hearts with their shining lies
While closing our caskets cold and tight, but I'm dying to live
Pacific sun, you should have warned us, these heights are dizzying
And the climb can kill you long before the fall
And our trails go unmarked and unmapped
And covered just as soon as they are crossed
We are, we are, intriguing. We are, we are, desirable
.Screaming Infidelities..
I'm missing your bed, I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak
& this bottle of beast is taking me home.
I'm cuddling close to blankets and sheets
You're not alone & you're not discreet.
You make sure I know, who's taking you home.
I'm reading your note over again.
There is not a word that I comprehend,
except when you signed it
"I will love you always & forever"
As for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs,
and sit alone and wonder,
how you're making out,
but as for me I wish that I was anywhere
with anyone making out
I'm missing your laugh, how did it break?
And when did your eyes begin to look fake?
I hope you're as happy as your pretending.
I'm missing you bed, I never sleep.
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to sleep.
And this bottle of beast is taking me home.
Your hair.
It's everywhere.
Screaming infidelities.
Taking it's wear.
yeay i'm done for now.....ok bye
xoxo

And down to the edge of the water
Where we'll spill our guts
And we'll name our fears, I'll give you this picture
Keep it and don't be scared
And color the coast with your smile
It's the most genuine thing I've ever seen
I was lost, but now, I believe in the coast
Your smile is the most genuine thing I've ever seen
I was lost, but now, I believe
Bend and Not Break
I catalog these steps now, decisive and intentioned
Precise and patterned specifically to your's
I'm talented at breathing, expecially exhaling
So that my chest will rise and fall with your's
I'm careful not to wake you, fearing conversation
It's better just to hold you and kepp pacified
I'm talented with reason, I cover all the angles
I can't fail before I ever try
Try to understand, there is an old mistake that fools will make
And I'm the king of them, pushing everything that's good away
So won't you hold me ? I will not bend, I will not break
Won't you hold me now? For you I rise, for you I fall
I am fairly agile, I can bend and not break
Or I can break and take it with a smile
And I am so resilient, I recover quickly
I'll convince you soon that I am fine
Ghost of a Good Thing
I guess it's luck, but it's the same hard luck
You've been trying to tame
Maybe it's love but it's like you said...
Love is like a role that we play
But I believe in you so much
I could die for the words that you say
But you're chasing the ghost of a good thing
Haunting yourself,
As the real thing is getting away from you again
while you're chasing ghosts
Just bend the pieces 'till they fit
Like they were made for it
But they weren't made for this
No, they weren't made for this
Am I Missing
Sharp disaster in a fresh new coma
Was it worth it when it was over?
Proving yourself right
You'd make the biggest noise
Well, I'd lock my hands behind my head
I'd cover my heart and hit the deck
I'd brace myself for the impact if I were you
It's a long wait for an answer
Is there any news? Is there any word?
Was there trauma? Or a struggle?
Am I missing? Or was the body found?
Is there anything worth looking for?
Worth loving for? Worth lying for?
Is there anything worth waiting for?
Worth living for? Worth dying for?
Morning Calls
Morning calls for pain relief
A line above the step beneath
The worst that you could do
And the best that you could hope for, is hardly the best
Tepid waters chase the pills
With turpentine and chamomile
And don't get cheap with the wine
You need to be up all of the time
Shield you eyes, conceal your lies
Don't blink, everyone's watching
They'll think you're up to something
They need for you to be everything
That they cannot be themselves
Carve Your Heart Out Yourself
Carve your heart out yourself
Hopelissness is your cell
Since you've drawn out these lines
Are you protected from trying times?
Man, it takes a silly girl
To lie about the dreams she has
But lord, it takes a lonely one
To wish that she had never dreamt them at all
Oh look now, there you go with hope again
Oh you're so sure that I'll be leaving in the end
Dig your ditch deep enough
To keep you clear of the sun
You've been burned more than once
You don't think much of trust
Oh look now, there you go with hope again
But I'll be sure your secret's safe with me
Oh you're so sure that I'll be leaving in the end
You're treating me like I'm already gone
But I'm not, I will star where you are, always
So Beautiful
I heard that you were home again
But you don't look like you're back to me
With your focuses changing
Your gaze is transfixed on a point that I can't often see
You've got your new ties, I've got my old knots
You've got your inside line
But you're never happy with what you've got
Careful now, you're so beautiful
When you've convinced yourself
The no one else is quite as beautiful
I heard that you were living well
But you don't look like you're living to me
Though the sparkle is gone, your smile is in place
So that everyone watching will see
You've got them all convinced
But I know so well that you could list your friends
But you can't count on them
Hold it now, you've got everyone convinced
That you're alright when no one else is quite as vulnerable
As soon as you've got it you want something else
It's not the sale that you love, it's the sell
I's not the price that's gonna cost you
It's just the weight that's gonna bring you down
Hey Girl
Hey girl, you've got a smart way about you
That makes me wish that I was smart enough for you
Hey girl, you've got a fine laugh
And I think that I could get used to that
And you're already used to laughing at me
Well, so what if your friends think I'm crazy
I wasn't trying to impress those girls nayway
They're all theory, no action
And where I come from we live like it's the latest attraction
Hey girl, you've got a short fuse
And I've got designs on lighting you up
And setting you off
And watching you burn for me
The world lives for the weekend
Well, I'll watch as my weeks bleed right into them
Without a line to divide what is their's
And what is mine
Go on, go on, your cruel intentions
Won't solve your problems
Everyone's gotta get bottom
Bottomed out in the long run
And those are the times you need love
If You Can't Let It Be, Might As Well Make It Bleed
What you found sure upset you
Never sat it coming did you?
It's easy to be surprised
With both your eyes sewn closed
Handled with great precision
Another faultless execution
You're the subject of this exhibition
A willing cadaver, a willing cadaver
Scalpled, stutured, made whole again
These cuts are leaving crease
Trace the scars, fir the pieces
To tell your story, you don't need to say a word
Call off the cavalry
You can't save a wretch like me
Clean this with kerosene
If you can't leave it be, might as well make it bleed
Scalpled, stutured, made whole again
Your wires are frayed, can't fire right
You look better when out of sight
You were not made to stand and fight
There's something better wrong with you
Your pulse is anemic, you're tired of the fire
You're bruising too easy, and falling behind
And no one is waiting for you
Call off your quarentine
You can't save the rest from me
Clean this with kerosene
If you can't leave it be, might as well make it bleed
Several Ways to Die Trying
Pacific sun, you should have warned us, it gets cold here
And the night can freeze before you set it on fire
And our flames go unnoticed
Diminished, faded just as soon as ther are fired
We are, we are, intrigued. We are, we are, invisible
Oh, how we've shouted, how we've screamed
Take notice, take interest, take me with you
But all our fears on deaf ears
Tonight, they're burning the roads they built to lead us to the light
And blinding our hearts with their shining lies
While closing our caskets cold and tight, but I'm dying to live
Pacific sun, you should have warned us, these heights are dizzying
And the climb can kill you long before the fall
And our trails go unmarked and unmapped
And covered just as soon as they are crossed
We are, we are, intriguing. We are, we are, desirable
.Screaming Infidelities..
I'm missing your bed, I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak
& this bottle of beast is taking me home.
I'm cuddling close to blankets and sheets
You're not alone & you're not discreet.
You make sure I know, who's taking you home.
I'm reading your note over again.
There is not a word that I comprehend,
except when you signed it
"I will love you always & forever"
As for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs,
and sit alone and wonder,
how you're making out,
but as for me I wish that I was anywhere
with anyone making out
I'm missing your laugh, how did it break?
And when did your eyes begin to look fake?
I hope you're as happy as your pretending.
I'm missing you bed, I never sleep.
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to sleep.
And this bottle of beast is taking me home.
Your hair.
It's everywhere.
Screaming infidelities.
Taking it's wear.
yeay i'm done for now.....ok bye
xoxo
