"The Getaway"

You and me and this decision,
It's more than just a headache.
Why ruin today? Don't bring it up.
It's just something we've gotta deal with.
We all saw it coming.
For now let's just pretend
To be the best attempt at best friends.

Follow the leader until they stray.

The getaway,
The things that stick.
If this is how you're gonna be,
Then I think you should go away.

You're a rock star.
Tune out then tune back in.
If this how you're gonna be,
Then you're not human,
You can't be human.

Isn't a little late for a riddle,
'Cause you claim to be an open book?
Some might call you complex,
But I'm just hearing nonsense.

It's nice to meet you, not nice to part;
Nice goes a long way in a forgiving heart.
You used up your chances.
Go find someone else to ruin.

I think you're ugly on the inside.

The getaway,
The things that stay.
If this is how you're gonna be,
Then I think you should go away.
You're the rockstar.
Tuned out, come tune back in.
If this is how you're gonna be,
Then you're not human,
You can't be human.
You're just not human.
Yeah, you're not human.

Please getaway from the things that stick.
If this is how you're gonna be,
Then I think you should go away.
You're such a rockstar!
Tuned out? Well tune back in!
If this is how you're gonna be...

The getaway, yeah...
You're such a rockstar!
Tuned out? Come tune back in!
If this is how you're gonna be,
Then you're not human,
You can't be human.

"MakeDamnSure"

You've got this new head filled up with smoke
And I've got my veins all tangled close
To those jukebox bars you frequent
They're the safest place to hide
A long night spent with your most obvious weakness
You start shaking at the thought you are everything I want
'Cause you are everything I'm not

And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way

My inarticulate store bought hangover hobby kit, it talks
It says, "You, oh, you are so cool."
Scissor shaped across the bed, you are red, violent red
You hollow out my hungry eyes
You hollow out my hungry eyes

And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way (worst way)

{I bite my tongue. I take my time and}

I'm gonna make damn sure that you can't ever leave
No, you won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
I'll make damn sure that you can't ever leave
No, you won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far...

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way (worst way)

I'm gonna make damn sure
I just wanna break you down so badly
I just wanna break you down so badly (damn sure)
In the worst way (worst way)

"How Could You"

How could you do this to me
I gave you every little thing that I could
You had me singing forever
Just like I knew you would

I refuse to get a grip
Whats the point when life is stripped more than it ever was
Its time to turn a leaf over but I don’t see any trees or leaves

Why set something free with no reason to let it go
It must not be meant to be

How could you do this to me
I gave you every little thing that I could
You had me singing forever
Just like I knew you would

So you figure you’d stop by
Well I appreciate the push back to a point a
For a few days at least
When you figure it makes a fig out of you and re but
What's that really mean
It means you should leave

Why set it all free
With no reason to let it go
It must not be meant to be.
