Shame On You lyrics - Skylar Grey
It should be illegal to be as handsome as you are
You should be locked up so you can't break nobody else's heart
'Cause you steal the beauty from the whole rest of the world
What you do to me, it could kill a girl, oh-oh-oh
Shame on you, because of you
The sun never looked so dull
Shame on you, because of you
The flowers aren't as colorful
Shame on you, 'cause next to you
There's nothing special 'bout a waterfall
Shame on you
For being so beautiful
I lay in my bed tonight and I wonder where you are
Since you're not here with me, baby, midnight never felt so dark
'Cause you stole the light from every star up in the sky
What you do to me, it should be a crime, oh-oh-oh
Shame on you, because of you
The sun never looked so dull
Shame on you, because of you
The flowers aren't as colorful
Shame on you, 'cause next to you
There's nothing special about a waterfall
Shame on you
For being so beautiful
You're the only thing that's beautiful
You're the only thing that's beautiful
You're the only thing that's beautiful
You're the only thing that's beautiful, oh-oh-oh
Shame on you, because of you
The sun never looked so dull
Shame on you, because of you
The flowers aren't as colorful
Shame on you, 'cause next to you
There's nothing special 'bout a waterfall
Shame on you
For being so beautiful, you're the only thing that's beautiful
(You're the only thing that's beautiful) The only thing that's beautiful
You're the only thing that's beautiful
(You're the only thing that's beautiful) The only thing that's beautiful
You're the only thing that's beautiful
The only thing that's beautiful
Ain't Nobody lyrics - Skylar Grey
I have never been good at playing games
Pass me the ball and it'll just fall to my feet
And roll away
I have never been good at gardening
I don't know why I can't keep 'em alive
I guess it's just not for me
And there's always somebody better at playing the keys
And there's so many girls who would look much better in these jeans
But ain't nobody, ain't nobody
Can love you like I do
No, ain't nobody
Better at loving you
I said ain't nobody, ain't nobody
Can love you like I do
No, ain't nobody
Better at loving you
'Cause I know just what you like and what you need
It seems like I can read your mind
And right now it's telling me
To pour you another whiskey on the rocks
And spill a little bit on my shirt
So you can take it off
Ain't nobody, ain't nobody
Can love you like I do
No, ain't nobody
Better at loving you
I said ain't nobody, ain't nobody
Can love you like I do
No, ain't nobody
Better at loving you
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ain't nobody, ain't nobody
Can love you like I do
Ain't nobody better at loving you
I said ain't nobody, ain't nobody
Can love you like I do
No, ain't nobody
Better at loving you
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (ain't nobody, ain't nobody)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (ain't nobody, ain't nobody)
Ain't nobody
Ain't nobody
Ain't nobody
Ain't nobody
Better at loving you
She Still Matters lyrics - Skylar Grey
You say jump and I just say, "How high?"
You make plans and I make them mine
When I ask you to come with me
You take your time, you just sit there thinking
When I say I love you, baby, you know that it's true
'Cause I'd drop it all to hold ya, all that matters to me is you
But when you say you love me, well, I don't know if it's true
'Cause you're still holding on to something like you still got something to lose
She still matters to you
She still matters to you
She still matters to you
Oh-oh
That picture of us, I wanted to post it, but you wanted to keep me a secret
I don't care who sees us kissing, and all my exes, let them listen
When I say I love you, baby, you know that it's true
'Cause I'd drop it all to hold ya, all that matters to me is you
But when you say you love me, well, I don't know if it's true
'Cause you're still holding on to something like you still got something to lose
She still matters to you
She still matters to you
She still matters to you
Oh-oh
Something between us seems off balance
Afraid we're falling from where we're standing
'Cause I can't hold on if you can't let go
When I say I love you, baby, you know that it's true
'Cause I'd drop it all to hold ya, all that matters to me is you
But when you say you love me, well, I don't know if it's true
'Cause you're still holding on to something like you still got something to lose
She still matters to you
She still matters to you
She still matters to you
Oh-oh
That's good
Angel With Tattoos lyrics - Skylar Grey
Oh, oh
Well, your daddy don't care, he just wants to see you happy, yeah
And your sister don't mind, kind of think she even likes me, yeah
And to me it's so important your family supports our love
'Cause I kind of plan on starting a family of our own
But your mama don't like me much, I wish she wouldn't judge
This book by its cover that's covered in dust
'Cause in between the pages is a tale of love so true
That my evil past has faded, and when it comes to you
I'm just an angel with tattoos
I'm an angel with tattoos
I would never do you wrong even though I've done wrong before
And I don't blame her for trying to protect her baby boy
At least we got that much in common, we're always gonna put you first
You're the apple of her eye, you're the center of my universe
But your mama don't like me much, I wish she wouldn't judge
This book by its cover that's covered in dust
'Cause in between the pages is a tale of love so true
That my evil past has faded, and when it comes to you
I'm just an angel with tattoos (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Oh-oh (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Feels like I'm born again
Feels like I'm born again
But your mama don't like me much, I wish she wouldn't judge
This book by its cover that's covered in dust
'Cause in between the pages is a tale of love so true
That my evil past has faded, and when it comes to you
I'm just an angel with tattoos
Oh, I'm an angel with tattoos
I don't know
Do You Remember lyrics - Skylar Grey
Oh
I caught grandma and grandpa sitting by the window
She was just resting her tired hand on his arm
And I was standing behind them, but I could see the love in their eyes
It didn't look like 60 years have come and gone, she said
Do you remember that time we saw the northern lights?
Do you remember that time we watched the shuttle blow up in the sky?
Do you remember that time we put a man on the moon?
And he said, "Baby (Baby), call me crazy (Crazy), of all that we've been through, all I remember is you"
All I remember is you, all I remember is you (Yeah, baby), all I remember
One day, we'll be sitting at the window
Just resting my tired hand on your arm
It's so easy these days to get a little bit discouraged, yes it is
But we'll prove that love like that can still be found, and I'll say
Do you remember that time we counted satellites?
Do you remember that time we watched the buildings burn up in the sky?
Do you remember that time we had our first black president?
And you'll say, "Baby (Baby), call me crazy (Crazy), of all that we've been through, all I remember is you"
Oh, time can be so cruel
Oh, and make you feel like a damn fool
For things you should remember, for things you just forget
But the only memories I need on my death bed
Are loving you and loving you and loving and loving you, she said
Do you remember that time we saw the northern lights?
Do you remember that time we watched the shuttle blow up in the sky?
Do you remember that time we put a man on the moon?
And he said, "Baby (Baby), call me crazy (Crazy), of all that we've been through, all I remember is you"
All I remember is you (You), all I remember is you (You, you), all I remember (You, you, you, you, you)
All I remember is you (Oh), all I remember is you (Baby), all I remember (Is you, you, you, you, you)
Kissing and touching on you, squeezing and hugging on you
All I remember is you, you, you, you, you
Kissing and touching on you, squeezing and loving on you
All I remember is you, you, you, you, you
All I remember is you (Ha-ha), all I remember is you
All I remember is you, you, you, you, you
Intro - Wilderness lyrics - Skylar Grey
Everywhere a wilderness
We're all out of our minds
Everyone's an animal
Even you and I
Everywhere a wilderness
The concrete to the pines
Everywhere a wilderness
There's no place you can hide
Everywhere a wilderness
We're all out of our minds
Everyone's an animal
But you're my favorite kind
Everywhere a wilderness
The wolves come out at night
Everywhere a wilderness
So won't you hold me tight?
Jump lyrics - Skylar Grey
Drunk in the lights, up in space
And worlds away from the day
Don't wanna feel anything
But music in my veins
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
(No fear of falling)
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
(No fear of falling)
High on the night, fly away
Lost in the echoes and bass
Don't wanna feel any pain
Let all my wounds be erased
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
(No fear of falling)
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
(No fear of falling)
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
(No fear of falling)
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
(No fear of falling)
No fear of falling
No fear of falling
Lemonade lyrics - Skylar Grey
Through heaven and hell
That's what you said
Through sickness and health, oh
That's what you said
'Cause no one knows what we've been through
(That's what you said)
And no one knows me like you do
(That's what you said)
No matter
I coulda waited for someone to come around
For someone who wouldn't leave a bad taste in my mouth
But life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
I pucker my lips, you can be pretty sour
Add sugar and water, just something to wash it down
'Cause life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
For better or worse
That's what you said
From fourpost to hearse, oh
That's what you said
'Cause no one knows what we've been through
(That's what you said)
And no one knows me like you do
(That's what you said)
No matter
I coulda waited for someone to come around
For someone who wouldn't leave a bad taste in my mouth
But life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
I pucker my lips, you can be pretty sour
Add sugar and water, just something to wash it down
'Cause life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
Nobody's perfect, no
But we're trying the best we can
And the pain, it's all worth it, oh
For the moments like this, when you're holding my hand
And you're kissing all over
My shoulders, down to my thighs
I open up to you, wide
But you don't see who I am inside
'Cause you believe the preconceived
This love was born disabled by paranoia
But paradise is on the table
Just let me show you how sweet this life can be
I coulda waited for someone to come around
For someone who wouldn't leave a bad taste in my mouth
But life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
I pucker my lips, you can be pretty sour
Add sugar and water, just something to wash it down
'Cause life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
Kill For You lyrics - Skylar Grey (feat. Eminem)
[Skylar Grey:]
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
You could make me a believer
Even if that shit ain't true
You could make me commit murder
Baby, I'd kill for you
In my eyes
Even if you are wrong, you are right
Even if it's a terrible crime, it's alright
'Cause I got your back, and I know you got mine
I belong to the church of your name, sing a song
'Cause I worship the ground you walk on
If I pray for you, I know you'll be there
You could make me a believer
Even if that shit ain't true
You could make me commit murder
Baby, I'd kill for you
In my bed I believe every word that you've said
Just a kiss and you make me forget
All the bad, the battles we lost, the bodies we hid
You don't know, just how far I'd be willing to go
You put the cracks into my moral code
So you can count on me to always be there
You could make me a believer
Even if that shit ain't true
You could make me commit murder
Baby, I'd kill for you
Oh, Lord, forgive my weary hands
And for what they may do
I'll carry out his evil plans
If he wants me to
[Eminem:]
In your dream, you're drownin', I just waltzed in and saved you
I'm your alternate escape route, the altar you pray to
Your ultimate savior, your behavior is altered
Ain't your fault 'cause I made you
Brainwash and persuade you
Gibraltar, your faith'll never falter or waver
One you call to in danger, I'm your guardian angel
Nobody can tell you shit, you've already made your
Mind just follow me, babe, you
Won't be sorry you stayed, you
Always ride, whatever the plan is
'Til the end, even if I led us into an ambush
Even if we robbed a First National and cops caught us red-handed
They're coming at us, and we're trapped with our backs up
Against the wall, and it's too tall
You'd catapult me or hold the ladder for me
Stay back to get captured, take the fall
You make it all worth it
Baby doll, you're perfect the way you are
Accidents happen
All I know is you love me, that's really all that matters
And any who cross our paths are just collateral damage
At your side, got your lateral, back, your front, diagonal
Backwards, blackbirds, we attack like animals
When they threaten what we have it's a natural reaction
You'll lay a bitch flat on her back in a second flat for me
Who tries to take your man from you
It's blasphemy, another casualty, you'll go whatever route
Do whatever you have to do, you'd blast for me
I never doubt that
That's 'cause you
[Skylar Grey:]
You could make me a believer
Even if that shit ain't true
You could make me commit murder
Baby, I'd kill for you
Come Up For Air lyrics - Skylar Grey
I'm no good for you
I'm not what you need
You've made that very clear
Though I disagree
Enough to let you go
To let you drift away
'Cause once you navigate these troubled waters
I believe that someday you'll return
And I will still be here
When you come up for air
Do what you gotta do
I'll wait for you to come up for air
'Cause in this whole wide world
There's no one else for me
So while you search the seas for answers
I will still be waiting
Be sure to dive down deep
Because if you do
Even if it takes a thousand lifetimes
My love, I know you're finally gonna see the truth
And you'll return
And I will still be here
When you come up for air
Do what you gotta do
I'll wait for you to come up for air
And even if this really is the end
I'm sure I'll be alone until I'm dead
'Cause no one else will ever quite compare
To them it wouldn't be fair
To lay here with somebody new
And all I did was think of you
If you're my Jack then I'm your Rose
And I promise I will never, ever let go
And I will still be here
When you come up for air
Do what you gotta do
I'll wait for you to come up for air
To come up for air
Come up for air
Come up for air
To come up for air
To come up for air
Come up for air
Come up for air
To come up for air
Real World lyrics - Skylar Grey
Welcome back to the real world
This ain't no virtual love
Welcome back to the real world
The kind of love you can touch
Welcome back to the real world
Where I wanna be
And I know it's really love
My heart's on a screen that is broken
It's really love
When you're holdin' me
Oh, I know the tension's for real
As real as this strain we been smokin'
So green, so warm, I breathe
Breathe like I've never inhaled before
Welcome back to the real world
This ain't no virtual love
Welcome back to the real world
The kind of love you can touch
Welcome back to the real me
When we're all alone
Oh, I know it's really us
No faces on a screen that is frozen
It's really us
So turn off the phone
'Cause I know the connection is real
And I don't need a signal to show you
I feel, I mourn, I bleed
Bleed like I've never been hurt before
Welcome back to the real world
This ain't no virtual love
Welcome back to the real world
The kind of love you can touch
In the still of the night
Let the stars be the light
Welcome back to the real world
This ain't no virtual love
Welcome back to the real world
The kind of love you can touch
Welcome back to the real world
Straight Shooter lyrics - Skylar Grey
Marry into this family and obtain a bunch of outlaws
Even the children drawin' guns out a little crayon box
Playin' with scissors, cuttin' straight to the point
No need to beat around the bush, we takin' shots to the groin
I take what I want
Take what I need
And do it all with dignity
Say what I want
Say what I mean
And I don't need you to agree, yeah
I don't spit before I fuck it
Got a hand on the pistol in my pocket
I don't play nice, I'm not a shit talker
I'm a straight shooter, now just give me the money, honey
Straight shooter, now just give me the money, honey
Straight shooter, now just give me the money
Got a hand on the pistol in my pocket
I'm a straight shooter, now just give me the money, honey
I ain't kissin' no ass, but I'm makin' out like a bandit
I'm brutally honest when I'm mouthin' off, here's a bandage
They say I'm savvy for my age and savage as any devil
But at least I'm no imposter strapped in Jesus sandals
I take what I want
Take what I need
And do it all with dignity
Say what I want
Say what I mean
And I don't need you to agree, yeah
I don't spit before I fuck it
Got a hand on the pistol in my pocket
I don't play nice, I'm not a shit talker
I'm a straight shooter, now just give me the money, honey
Straight shooter, now just give me the money, honey
Straight shooter, now just give me the money
Got a hand on the pistol in my pocket
I'm a straight shooter, now just give me the money, honey
Beware the beauty with the lonely face
Who whispers every word you want to hear
Evil is eager underneath her grace
And poison are the flowers in her hair
I don't spit before I fuck it
Got a hand on the pistol in my pocket
I don't play nice, I'm not a shit talker
I'm a straight shooter, now just give me the money, honey
Straight shooter, now just give me the money, honey
Straight shooter, now just give me the money
Got a hand on the pistol in my pocket
I'm a straight shooter, now just give me the money, honey
Off Road lyrics - Skylar Grey
So what you wanna do
You wanna do with me, babe
You got me in the mood
So what you wanna do now now now now
Do with me, babe
You got me in the mood
I'm always looking for an adventure
Let's go somewhere we both haven't been
I need a change of scenery
I'm sick of lookin' at the same old shit
Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road
Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road
So what you wanna do
You wanna do to me, babe
You got me in the mood
So what you wanna do now now now now
Do to me, babe
You got me in the mood
Let's go off the beaten path
And get high off a different kind of risk
Don't need another party
No I'm sick of takin' all the same old shit
Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road
Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road
Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road
Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road
In My Garden lyrics - Skylar Grey
I don't even deserve it
What I get, I can't believe I earn it
What you said, I can't believe I heard it
Benefit, no matter what the verdict
Oh, I'm all I ever needed
You can cut my limbs like I'm defeated
They grow back if I'm mistreated
In my garden
In my garden, oh
Where I come from
We don't cry over none
I come from where few get a chance to be loved
Or travel the world
Where I come from
I just don't have the time to be miserable
Can't you just smile for me?
Can't you just smile, baby, for me?
Smile baby for me
Smile, smile, smile, smile
Patiently, I wait for the sun to rise
To rise
I ain't goin' after perfect
Every broken wing is not a burden
Baby don't complain about your hurtin'
'Cause you know there's always room to worsen
When your roots are being eaten
Just know it's good to be reseeding
In my garden, in my garden
In my garden, in my garden, oh
Where I come from
We don't cry over none
I come from where few get a chance to be loved
Or travel the world
Where I come from
I just don't have the time to be miserable
Can't you just smile for me?
Can't you just smile, baby, for me?
Smile baby for me
Smile, smile, smile, smile
Patiently, I wait for the sun to rise
Moving Mountains lyrics - Skylar Grey
I just wanna show the world what I'm worth
Don't wanna be stuck like everybody else
I want more, more
I want more, more
You said, "I just wanna find my happiness."
That's why I work so hard, harder than the rest
I want more, more
I want more, more
For once, once in your life
For once push your ambitions aside
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you
For once, once in your life
For once just stop to open your eyes
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you
I just want them all to love me best
'Cause maybe that would change how I feel about myself
I want more, more
I want more, more
For once, once in your life
For once push your ambitions aside
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you
For once, once in your life
For once just stop to open your eyes
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you
For once, once in your life
For once push your ambitions aside
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you
For once, once in your life
For once just stop to open your eyes
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you
Picture Perfect lyrics - Skylar Grey
Picture perfect love
Suddenly upside down
Picture perfect love, oh
Suddenly upside down
Wipe the tears from your face and get high
Havin' a bottle under the moonlight
Fadin' away
Havin' a bottle under the moonlight
Fadin' away
You want me gone
Why can't you kill me yourself?
Just havin' a bottle under the moonlight
Fadin' away
Picture perfect love
Suddenly upside down
Havin' a bottle under the moonlight
Fadin' away
Havin' a bottle under the moonlight
Fadin' away
You want me gone
Why can't you kill me yourself?
Just havin' a bottle under the moonlight
Fadin' away
The dream turned worse than a nightmare
Hear that sound?
Our demons cursin' and screamin'
Even when the sun is out
Pictures on the wall turned over
Like a home turned into a fun house
I'm stumblin' down the corridor
Like someone spiked my corona
Call the coroner
Our love is dead
And it's lying in the corner
Arms and legs stretched out on the floor like a Dali, Salvador
Its surreal nothin' feels real no more
All I can do is drink and smoke 'til I can't feel a fuckin' thing no more
Your face is startin' to change shapes
Into someone I've never seen before
I've been going insane since you been gone
Picture perfect never looked so wrong
And in the end if I can't make you mine
I'm'a drink myself into a new frame of mind
Havin' a bottle under the moonlight
Fadin' away
Havin' a bottle under the moonlight
Fadin' away
You want me gone
Why can't you kill me yourself?
Just havin' a bottle under the moonlight
Fadin' away
Wipe the tears from your face and get high
(Wipe the tears from your face and get high)
(Wipe the tears from your face and get high)
(Wipe the tears from your face and get high)
We Used To Be Bad lyrics - Skylar Grey
Tall grass is where my drive is hidin' out
Can we pretend that it flew straight enough
To land on the fairway
And it won't hurt my score?
We used to be bad like that but it felt right
Burning through our daddy's cash
And our momma's cigarettes
We used to be bad like that in the good old days
Oh if we only knew back then
That's the best that it's gonna get
It's been years since we have gotten high enough
It's startin' to feel like I am dryin' up
So let's drink the whole thing
Before I turn to stone
We used to be bad like that but it felt right
Burning through our daddy's cash
And our momma's cigarettes
We used to be bad like that in the good old days
Oh if we only knew back then
That's the best that it's gonna get
How can ya live if guilt is twisting around your soul like twine?
Life is too short to feel constricted, when all ya do is die
Tall grass...
I'm just so tired of playin' by the rules
Closer lyrics - Skylar Grey
It's all making you crazy
Finger straight to the sky
You can't redeem yourself
From the loss of this fight
Little bird, you may not see me
But I am the wind that guides
Little bird, you may not see me
But don't be afraid to fly
I'm closer, closer than you know
Closer than you know
I'm closer, much closer, closer than you know
Closer than you know
And nothing gets you further than this love
Little bird, you may not see me
But I am the wind that guides
Little bird, you may not see me
But don't be afraid to fly
I'm closer, closer than you know
Closer than you know
I'm closer, much closer, closer than you know
Closer than you know
And nothing gets you further than this love

Back From The Dead lyrics - Skylar Grey (feat. Big Sean & Travis Barker)
[Skylar Grey:]
I never thought that you and I would ever meet again
I mourn the loss of you sometimes and pray for peace within
The word "distraught" cannot describe how my heart has been
But where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
I held the funeral the day you left
A black umbrella and a sad song in my head
Buried your pictures that I loved the most
'Cause if you survived me, I just didn't wanna know
So you can't just come back now like a demon uninvited
No, you can't just expect me to open my door to you because
I never thought that you and I would ever meet again
I mourn the loss of you sometimes and pray for peace within
The word "distraught" cannot describe how my heart has been
But where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
I'm so confused I don't know what to feel
Should I throw my arms around you or kill you for real?
'Cause I worked so hard to put the past to rest
Now it's tumbling down on me just like an avalanche
So you can't just come back now like a demon uninvited
No, you can't just expect me to open my door to you because
[Big Sean:]
I know, I know, I can sit and talk but I can't make you listen
You wish that I paid attention, I thought if I paid admissions
To wherever, go however, it would paint the perfect picture
You said "No matter how much you fucking make it doesn't make a difference."
And I'm so so so sorry that we fell in love, Geronimo
It's like one thing leads to another
Swear we're fucking with dominoes
But, here we are
Now I'm trying to find an answer in this bottle girl
And I'm drownin' slow, drownin slow, don't let the piranhas know
But you gon' miss me when I'm gone
Why we gotta wait that long?
Baby, do-do-do-do-don't
Or should I walk out instead
Is this "Live and Let Die" or "Night of the Living Dead"?
[Skylar Grey:]
I never thought that you and I would ever meet again
I mourn the loss of you sometimes and pray for peace within
The word "distraught" cannot describe how my heart has been
But where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Where do we begin now that you're back from the dead?
Final Warning lyrics - Skylar Grey
Yeah, someone's gonna get hurt
Na na na na na na na na na
Yeah, someone's gonna get hurt
Na na na na na na na na na
And it's not gonna be me
Good morning gorgeous
I drove your truck in the lake last night
Hope she was worth it
Don't worry, I slept just fine
You keep throwin' punches but you won't win this fight
You're just fuckin' yourself when you don't read the signs
I'm going to the kitchen, comin' back with a knife
'Cause I've had enough this time
This is your final warning
There's a dark cloud overhead
This is your final warning
Just remember what I said
Yeah, someone's gonna get hurt
Na na na na na na na na na
Yeah, someone's gonna get hurt
Na na na na na na na na na
And it's not gonna be me
Good afternoon, dear
How does the rope feel around your neck?
Just one more error
Could be your fatal step
You keep throwin' punches but you won't win this fight
You're just fuckin' yourself when you don't read the signs
I'm going to the kitchen, comin' back with a knife
'Cause I've had enough this time
This is your final warning
There's a dark cloud overhead
This is your final warning
Just remember what I said
Yeah, someone's gonna get hurt
Na na na na na na na na na
Yeah, someone's gonna get hurt
Na na na na na na na na na
And it's not gonna be me
'Cause you're the one thing
You are, you are the one thing
'Cause you're the one thing
You are, you are, you are
This is your final warning
There's a dark cloud overhead
This is your final warning
Just remember what I said
Yeah, someone's gonna get hurt
Na na na na na na na na na
Yeah, someone's gonna get hurt
Na na na na na na na na na
And it's not gonna be me
'Cause you're the one thing
You are, you are the one thing
'Cause you're the one thing
Wear Me Out lyrics - Skylar Grey
Smart ass little girl
Always on the run
Playin' with fire
And daddy's gun
Fallin' in love on stolen wine
Where did we go wrong my foolish child?
She said
I'm too young to drink
Too green to think
You say these things
And it wears me out
Too young, too frail
But sometimes I feel like old blue jeans
'Cause you wear me out
You wear me out
Well, who are you to judge?
Miss accidental wife
Who was the genius that brought me to life?
Well, you're such a hypocrite
To think me so unwise
I'm just tryna see the world through my own eyes
But you say
I'm too young to drink
Too green to think
You say these things
And it wears me out
Too young, too frail
But sometimes I feel like old blue jeans
'Cause you wear me out
You wear me out
Well, I'm tattered and torn
See what you do?
Just admit it was all because of you
When I don't come home 'til the early morning
I'm too young to drink
Too green to think
You say these things
And it wears me out
Too young, too frail
But sometimes I feel like old blue jeans
'Cause you wear me out
You wear me out
Don't you know that you wear me out
You wear me out
Religion lyrics - Skylar Grey
I saw a man die, the day he got outta jail
I bought a new car, and got caught in the hail
Sometimes it feels like, you got no one on your side
But I will be there, holdin' you tight, yeah, yeah
Holdin' you tight, yeah
When you don't know what to believe in
(Don't know what to believe in)
Let me be your religion
(Let me be your religion)
It's a fucked up world that we live in
(It's a fucked up world that we live in)
So let me be your religion
(Let me be your religion)
Yeah
You lost a big bet on the day you lost your job
You got evicted
You said, "Please help me, God"
Now I don't know why, when it rains, it pours
But I know one thing that you've got for sure, oh, yeah, yeah
You've got for sure, oh, yeah
When you don't know what to believe in
(Don't know what to believe in)
Let me be your religion
(Let me be your religion)
It's a fucked up world that we live in
(It's a fucked up world that we live in)
So let me be your religion
(Let me be your religion)
Yeah
Let me be the one you go to when you start to cry
Let me be the one that holds you when you're askin' why
I can only imagine what you're goin' through, babe, but please
When you don't know what to believe in
(Don't know what to believe in)
Let me be your religion
(Let me be your religion)
It's a fucked up world that we live in
(It's a fucked up world that we live in)
So let me be your religion
(Let me be your religion)
When you don't know what to believe in
(Don't know what to believe in)
Let me be your religion
(Let me be your religion)
It's a fucked up world that we live in
(It's a fucked up world that we live in)
So let me be your religion
(Let me be your religion)
Hey

C'mon Let Me Ride lyrics - Skylar Grey (feat. Eminem)
[Skylar Grey:]
And the wheels go around, and 'round and 'round
If you got a sweet tooth, you can taste my watermelons
If the swing set bores you, I can show you all my talents
I can wear a tan like other bitches can't
You can have all this, boy and there's only one thing that I want from you
C'mon, let me ride your bicycle
It's so fantastical, on your bicycle
We can get a little more physical
Baby, after all, it's only natural
I feel it comin', comin' comin', ohh
I feel it runnin', runnin', runnin', oh!
C'mon, let me ride your bicycle
It's so fantastical, on your bicycle, whoa!
[Eminem:]
You want to ride my bicycle, you want to ride my bike
(Ha-ha!)
[Skylar Grey:]
If the world starts freezing, I can make it hot and humid
If you get a bee sting, I can suck out all the poison
I can make you last like other bitches can't
Have I made it clear, boy?
There's only one thing that I want from you, hey
C'mon, let me ride your bicycle
It's so fantastical, on your bicycle
We can get a little more physical
Baby, after all, it's only natural
I feel it comin', comin' comin', ohh
I feel it runnin', runnin', runnin', oh!
C'mon, let me ride your bicycle
It's so fantastical, on your bicycle, whoa!
I'm only fucking with you
Fuck you for thinking it's true
I'm not like the sluts in this town
They make me blech in my mouth
I wanna ride on your bike
'Cause you're the boy that I like
It's like I'm a sellout for you
But your bike's so shiny and new (Shiny and new)
[Eminem & Skylar Grey:]
She's distracted, by my reflectors
Man, I can tell this chick's attracted
My wheels spoke to her, my Schwinn is a chick magnet
Bagging up chicks like a bag of chips
With a bag of prophylactics as big as Mick Jagger lips
Shagging's not something I'm a pro at, but I ain't practicing shit
Allen Iverson of safe sex
Condoms are for practice, man, I skip practice
Flip backwards while I flip this bike on its banana seat
My fantasy is to have you land where the kickstand is
Got this bitch gaggin', they call me the broad killer
I'm the cousin of Godzilla
'Cause I spit fire and my dick's draggin', zig-zaggin' up the avenue
Pullin' these chicks in my antagonist wagon, screamin'
[Skylar Grey:]
C'mon, let me ride your bicycle
It's so fantastical, on your bicycle
We can get a little more physical
Baby, after all, it's only natural
I feel it comin', comin' comin', ohh
I feel it runnin', runnin', runnin', oh!
C'mon, let me ride your bicycle
It's so fantastical, on your bicycle, whoa!
[Eminem:]
You want to ride my bicycle, you want to ride my bike
You want to ride my bicycle, you want to ride my bike, ha ha
Sunshine lyrics - Skylar Grey
You lost your cool again and punched the bedroom door
You're sick of workin' hard and always bein' poor
But you don't have to feel ashamed
You don't have to lose your way
Won't do any good to sit and moan
Come take a walk down this old road
I said...
Just look at the sky
There's no need to cry
Ain't got money but we got sunshine
Mud on our boots and fish on the line
Ain't got nothin' but we're in paradise
Look at the sky
We'll be alright
Ain't got money but we got sunshine
Oh, oh, oh
Forget the magazines, the tricks of Hollywood
They make it look so great that you forget what's good
So you don't have to feel ashamed
'Cause baby, I'm not that way
Remember the day you said hello?
I was at the river skippin' stones, and you said...
Just look at the sky
There's no need to cry
Ain't got money but we got sunshine
Mud on our boots and fish on the line
Ain't got nothin' but we're in paradise
Look at the sky
We'll be alright
Ain't got money but we got sunshine
Oh, oh, oh
When that old drunk livin' on the street is laughin' louder than me
I know something's wrong and I start to see that this sweet sunshine is the only gold I need
Well, I said...
Just look at the sky
There's no need to cry
Ain't got money but we got sunshine
Mud on our boots and fish on the line
Ain't got nothin' but we're in paradise
Look at the sky
We'll be alright
Ain't got money but we got sunshine
Oh, oh, oh
Pulse lyrics - Skylar Grey
I heard you found a new friend so quick you were to achieve
I hope you give her good head, the kind you didn't give me
Hear what you tell everyone just to rub it in my face
You're so much happier now that she has taken my place
Come take my pulse to see how much I care
You won't get a rise out of me anywhere
You blew our love like smoke into the air
But I never loved you quite enough
Loved you quite enough to even care
It's clear what you see in her I understand it too well
In this unbearable world we've all got some holes to fill
Does she know we fucked on the table where the two of you eat?
Do you use all the same tricks that swept me off of my feet?
Well come take my pulse to see how much I care
You won't get a rise out of me anywhere
You blew our love like smoke into the air
But I never loved you quite enough
Loved you quite enough to even
Sometimes I watch the rain outside and wonder if you miss me, miss me
Sometimes I touch myself at night as if you're dreaming of me
Oh, sometimes I hold my pillow tight and wish that you were with me, with me
But when I see her at your side I know I never loved you quite enough
Loved you quite enough to even
Come take my pulse to see how much I care
You won't get a rise out of me anywhere
You blew our love like smoke into the air
But I never loved you quite enough
Loved you quite enough to even
Come take my pulse to see how much I care
You won't get a rise out of me anywhere
You blew our love like smoke into the air
But I never loved you quite enough
Loved you quite enough to even care
Glow In The Dark lyrics - Skylar Grey
I've got it, yeah I've got it, yeah I've got it
I've got a fire in me
There's so much I have to see
From where I was before
To how far I've yet to go
I'm gonna raise my hands
Gonna take a stand
Gonna turn my voice up loud
I'm glow in the dark now
Glow in the dark now, now, now
Glow in the dark now
I'm glow in the dark now, now, now, now
I've got it, now, now, now, now
I've got it, yeah I've got it, I've got it
I've got a fire in me
It's so bright I can't believe
I was ever scared before of things
I could not control
I'm gonna raise my hands
Gonna take a stand
Gonna turn my voice up loud
I'm glow in the dark now
Glow in the dark now, now, now
Glow in the dark now
I'm glow in the dark now, now, now, now
Strange light, follow as it burns
Strange life, of unexpected turns
You fight on and even if you fall
You get back up again
I'm glow in the dark now (Some hearts you'll never win)
Glow in the dark now, now, now (And some pain never ends)
Glow in the dark now (But these are the shoe's you're walkin' in)
I'm glow in the dark now, now, now, now (So just get back up again)
Now, now, now (Get back up again)
Now, now, now
Shit, Man! lyrics - Skylar Grey (feat. Angel Haze)
[Skylar Grey:]
You're never ready for
Something quite like this
It comes to hit you when you
Are least expectin' it
So now what happens if I choose
To have this child, have a child with you?
But do you believe that we can make it through?
How we gonna do this thing? (This thing)
How we gonna do it? Shit, man!
We don't even got no ring (No ring)
And we don't got the money, shit, man!
We're gonna need a bigger house
We've got a lot to figure out
How we gonna do this thing? (This thing)
How we gonna do this thing? (This thing)
Shit, man!
Sometimes it still feels like
We're just a couple of kids
Afraid of growin' up, yeah
Afraid to say, "This is it"
So now I don't know what I'll do
But I'm so in love, so in love with you
Can you believe this is happening so soon?
How we gonna do this thing? (This thing)
How we gonna do it? Shit, man!
We don't even got no ring (No ring)
And we don't got the money, shit, man!
We're gonna need a bigger house
We've got a lot to figure out
How we gonna do this thing? (This thing)
How we gonna do this thing? (This thing)
Shit, man!
[Angel Haze:]
Yo, uh-huh
This ain't what I expected
Ain't happenin' like I thought it
And if they say, "Love is free," then tell me why the fuck it's costin'?
And yes, it happens often and I should cope with my losses
And you say you're not ready
I don't believe in abortions
My heart, light as a feather
I know things could get better
I know your vision's cloudy
So much inclement weather
I know that faith is a string that's slowly coming untethered
But we can get through anything together (Yeah)
[Skylar Grey:]
How we gonna do this thing? (This thing)
How we gonna do it? Shit, man!
We don't even got no ring (No ring)
And we don't got the money, shit, man!
We're gonna need a bigger house
We've got a lot to figure out
How we gonna do this thing? (This thing)
How we gonna do this thing? (This thing)
Shit, man!
Shit, man!
How we gonna do this thing? (This thing)
Shit, man! (No ring)
Shit, man!
Clear Blue Sky lyrics - Skylar Grey
(I don't wanna stay here, 'cause every day it rains here)
(Underneath a clear blue sky)
(Even though it's summer, all I hear is thunder)
(Underneath this clear blue sky)
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
My dear, it's true
You're troubled just like me
We're black and blue
And in love with misery
But you can have my darkness
You can have my black dress
Take away my emo
I don't really need this
I'm gettin' in my own way
And gettin' high on heartbreak
And all the shit that you say
Is makin' my world all grey
I don't wanna stay here, 'cause every day it rains here
Underneath a clear blue sky
Even though it's summer, all I hear is thunder
Underneath this clear blue sky
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't blame yourself
I let you drag me down
But this place is hell
I finally see that now
So you can have my dark clouds
Gonna let my hood down
Take away my emo
I think I've had enough now
Of gettin' in my own way
And gettin' high on heartbreak
And all the shit that you say
That's makin' my world all grey
I don't wanna stay here, 'cause every day it rains here
Underneath a clear blue sky
Even though it's summer, all I hear is thunder
Underneath this clear blue sky
But I'm not sayin' I'm gonna start going to church
Not sayin' that I'll show up early to work
Just sayin' for once, I'm puttin' myself first
Puttin' myself first, puttin' myself first
So I'm leavin' this town for good
God, I gotta get out of this neighborhood
Just like you never ever thought I could
Never thought I could, never thought, but
I don't wanna stay here, 'cause every day it rains here
Underneath a clear blue sky
Even though it's summer, all I hear is thunder
Underneath this clear blue sky
I don't wanna stay here, 'cause every day it rains here
Underneath a clear blue sky
Even though it's summer, all I hear is thunder
Underneath this clear blue sky
Tower (Don't Look Down) lyrics - Skylar Grey
You're high up on the tower
Now don't look down
I will be OK here on the ground
And you can always call
To say hello from time to time
When you're no longer mine
I will be drunk on cheap beer
Like everyone else around here
You've got the world at your feet
But there's nothing out there for me
You don't have to lie
Sayin' that you'll try
To make it work from a distance
Just leave me here to die
As I watch you climb
Up to the top of your ambitions
You're high up on the tower
Now don't look down
I will be OK here on the ground
And you can always call
To say hello from time to time
When you're no longer mine
Here in a pale shade of life
Under the trailer park lights
There'll be nothing left for you to see
You won't even recognize me
You don't have to lie
Sayin' that you'll try
To make it work from a distance
Just leave me here to die
As I watch you climb
Up to the top of your ambitions
You're high up on the tower
Now don't look down
I will be OK here on the ground
And you can always call
To say hello from time to time
When you're no longer mine
I always knew (I always knew)
That you would follow your big dreams
What I didn't know (What I didn't know)
Is that your dreams (your dreams) never did include me
You're high up on the tower
Now don't look down
I will be OK here on the ground
And you can always call
To say hello from time to time
When you're no longer mine
White Suburban lyrics - Skylar Grey
I knew you before
Took a lifetime to forget
But as my eyes meet yours
I take all I can get
They light up the shadows of my heart
Return stolen works of art
Yet you can't discern this moment's grace
But I still remember you
In that big, old, white "Suburban"
And though you look right past me with disregard
The first won't happen twice
My gaze shifts to the ground
More alone than I was then
I have searched your eyes
But they don't comprehend
I crawl back into the shadows of my heart
And just sit there in the dark
Where you don't requite the love you still take
But I still remember you
In that big, old, white "Suburban"
And though you look right past me with disregard
And although I've since moved on
And I've been in love a few times
There's still a piece of me that holds onto you
'Cause the first won't happen twice
It won't happen twice
It won't happen twice
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh
I remember you
In that big, old, white "Suburban"
And although you look right past me with disregard
And although I've since moved on
And I've been in love a few times
There's still a piece of me that can't let go of you
'Cause the first won't happen twice
Weirdo lyrics - Skylar Grey
I'm that girl talking to herself
In the corner of the room
She looks like she's from somewhere else
Like the dark side of the moon
So people think that I'm the freak
But I think they're in denial
Because the only thing they have that I don't is
A bullshit smile
You can say that I'm a zero
A super freak, a fucking weirdo
But I turn heads wherever I go
I'm proud to be a fucking weirdo
Weirdo
Weirdo
Happy faces all around
And I think that I might choke
I'm like a vampire on these sunny days
I feel my skin begin to smoke
So people think that I'm the freak
But I think they're in denial
Because the only thing they have that I don't is
A bullshit smile
You can say that I'm a zero
A super freak, a fucking weirdo
But I turn heads wherever I go
I'm proud to be a fucking weirdo
Weirdo
Weirdo
Weirdo
I'm proud to be a fucking weirdo
You can say that I'm a zero
A super freak, a fucking weirdo
But I turn heads wherever I go
I'm proud to be a fucking weirdo
You can say that I'm a zero
A super freak, a fucking weirdo
But I turn heads wherever I go
I'm proud to be a fucking weirdo
Beautiful Nightmare lyrics - Skylar Grey
I can't let go
I'm addicted to your torture
I'm a prisoner to the pain
Although you're gone
All the misery remains
I do my best
Every day just keeping busy
To avoid the ghost of you
But when I rest
There is nothing I can do
My eyes are closing and I'm scared
'Cause I only dream of you
You're a beautiful nightmare
And nothing can wake me up from you
I gave you love
Gave you everything you asked for
And this is what I get
Your silence only fills my head with noise
I do my best
Every day just keeping busy
To avoid the ghost of you
But when I rest
There is nothing I can do
My eyes are closing and I'm scared
'Cause I only dream of you
You're a beautiful nightmare
And nothing can wake me up from you
Beautiful nightmare
Beautiful nightmare
You're a beautiful nightmare
You're a beautiful nightmare
Beautiful nightmare
Beautiful nightmare
You're a beautiful nightmare
You're a beautiful nightmare
Ticking Time Bomb lyrics - Skylar Grey
You may think I'm harmless
You could not be more wrong
Careful what you do
I am just a ticking time bomb
You may think I'm laughing
You couldn't be more stupid
I'm laughing 'cause I know
That someday this ticking bomb will explode
If I said what I've been thinking
They would lock me up for good
I know you just won't understand me
Like the Unabomber would
It appears to you I'm so together
But my plans are so much bigger than this
You may think I'm harmless
You could not be more wrong
Careful what you do
I am just a ticking time bomb
You may think I'm laughing
You couldn't be more stupid
I'm laughing 'cause I know
That someday this ticking bomb will explode
Every day, I see a new thing
That makes me wanna start a fight
But I just stack the ammunition
And let the pressure build inside
It appears to you I'm so together
But my plans are so much bigger than this
You may think I'm harmless
You could not be more wrong
Careful what you do
I am just a ticking time bomb
You may think I'm laughing
You couldn't be more stupid
I'm laughing 'cause I know
That someday this ticking bomb will explode
Explode, explode, exploding
Explode, explode, exploding
I kiss so soft and sweetly
And you feel so safe bein' with me
But I try so hard to be happy
Boy, you make it look so easy
You may think I'm harmless
You could not be more wrong
Careful what you do
I am just a ticking time bomb
You may think I'm laughing
You couldn't be more stupid
I'm laughing 'cause I know
That someday this ticking bomb will explode
Explode, explode, exploding
Explode, explode, exploding
Love The Way You Lie, Pt. III lyrics - Skylar Grey
On the first page of our story
The future seemed so bright
Then the saint turned out so evil
I don't know why I'm still surprised
Even angels have their wicked schemes
And you take that to new extremes
But you'll always be my hero
Even though you've lost your mind
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?
Well, that's all right because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?
Well, that's all right because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Now there's gravel in our voices
And glasses shattered from the fight
In this tug of war, you always win
Even when I'm right
'Cause you feed me fables from your head
With violent words and empty threats
And it's sick that all these battles
Are what keeps me satisfied
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?
Well, that's all right because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?
Well, that's all right because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
So maybe I'm a masochist
I try to run, but I don't wanna ever leave
'Til the walls are going up
In smoke with all our memories
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn?
Well, that's all right because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry?
Well, that's all right because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Coming Home, Part II lyrics - Skylar Grey
And the blood will dry, underneath my nails
And the wind will rise up, to fill my sails
See you can doubt, and you can hate
But I know, no matter what it takes
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tell the world I'm coming home
Let the rain wash away, all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tell the world I'm coming
Still far away, from where I belong
But it's always darkest before the dawn
See you can doubt, and you can hate
But I know, no matter what it takes
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tell the world I'm coming home
Let the rain wash away, all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tell the world I'm coming
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tell the world I'm coming home
Let the rain wash away, all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tell the world I'm coming
Home
Words lyrics - Skylar Grey
Always in a rush
Never stay on the phone long enough
Why am I so self-important?
Said I'd see you soon
But that was, oh, maybe a year ago
Didn't know time was of the essence
So many questions
But I'm talking to myself
I know that you can't hear me any more
Not anymore
So much to tell you
And most of all goodbye
But I know that you can't hear me any more
It's so loud inside my head
With words that I should've said
And as I drown in my regrets
I can't take back the words I never said
I never said
I can't take back the words I never said
Always talking shit
Took your advice and did the opposite
Just being young and stupid
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
I haven't been all that you could've hoped for
But if you'd held on a little longer
You'd have had more reasons to be proud
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
So many questions
But I'm talking to myself
I know that you can't hear me any more
Not anymore
So much to tell you
And most of all goodbye
But I know that you can't hear me any more
It's so loud inside my head
With words that I should've said
And as I drown in my regrets
I can't take back the words
The longer I stand here
The louder the silence
I know that you're gone but sometimes I swear that I hear
Your voice when the wind blows
So I talk to the shadows
Hoping you might be listening 'cause I want you to know
It's so loud inside my head
With words that I should've said
And as I drown in my regrets
I can't take back the words I never said
I never said
I can't take back the words I never said
Never said
I can't take back the words I never said
Addicted To Love lyrics - Skylar Grey
(originally by Robert Palmer)
Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes
You can't sleep, you can't eat
There's no doubt, you're in deep
Your throat is tight, you can't breathe
Another kiss is all you need
Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love
You see the signs, but you can't read
You're running at a different speed
Your heart beats in double time
Another kiss and you'll be mine, a one track mind
You can't be saved
Oblivion is all you crave
If there's some left for you
You don't mind if you do
Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your will is not your own
Your heart sweats, your teeth grind
Another kiss and you'll be mine
Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
American lyrics - Skylar Grey
Where's your honor, where's my pride?
Even when it's hard to find
From seed to harvest, it's been ingrained
Drive me past the fields of corn
As Johnny Cash blasts in your Ford
Just get me home to catch the big game
'Cause I was born an American
On the same dark soil
Through the years and all the changes
Still, there's no place like home
And I will die an American
As fireflies and times of war
I think back to a time before
Of catching fireflies in my hands
Then it seems I grew up in a flash
A copper penny flying off a track
Free to fall in love with any man
'Cause I was born an American
On the same dark soil
Through the years and all the changes
Still, there's no place like home
I was born an American
And though I'm growing old
Through the years and all the changes
Still, there's no place like home
And I will die an American
Building A Monster lyrics - Skylar Grey
Save your breath
No need to tell me you're my friend
I'm not gonna fall for that again
This human heart
How many times can it be torn
Before a superhero is born?
This angel has lost her wings
I'm building a monster
Beneath all the scars you see
I'm building a monster
You've showed your cards
No one's who they say they are
And I am not who you thought I was before
Human heart
How many times can it be torn
Before a superhero is born?
This angel has lost her wings
I'm building a monster
Beneath all the scars you see
I'm building a monster
Can't Haunt Me lyrics - Skylar Grey (feat. Marilyn Manson)
[Skylar Grey & Marilyn Manson:]
I'm a zombie, zombie, zombie
[Skylar Grey (Marilyn Manson):]
Laying underground
It can't get any worse, get any worse
So violate me as you wish
But I'm too numb to hurt, too numb to hurt
Don't get surprised or terrified
There are no more tears left to cry
Do what you like (I'll do what I like)
So do what you like (I'll do what I like)
Nothing can take my breath away
My lungs are empty anyway
Do what you like (I'll do what I like)
I'm not alive
[Skylar Grey & Marilyn Manson:]
I'm like a zombie, zombie
So you can't haunt me, can't haunt me
I'm like a zombie, zombie
So you can't haunt me, you can't haunt me
Haunt me
[Skylar Grey (Marilyn Manson):]
Washed up with the tide again
I have seen enough, I've seen too much
(You haven't seen anything)
Come here Necrophilia
I'm cold to the touch, cold to the touch (cold to the touch)
Don't get surprised or terrified
There are no more tears left to cry
Do what you like (I'll do what I like)
So do what you like (I'll make you cry)
Nothing can take my breath away
My lungs are empty anyway
Do what you like
Do what you like (I'll do what I like)
I'm not alive
[Skylar Grey & Marilyn Manson:]
I'm like a zombie, zombie
So you can't haunt me, can't haunt me
I'm like a zombie, zombie
So you can't haunt me, you can't haunt me
Haunt me
[Marilyn Manson:]
And you're deep in your world
Infect your insides with the seeds of the flowers of evil
I lay on your tomb
You wreck me
Resurrect me
You wrecked me
You wrecked me
[Skylar Grey & Marilyn Manson:]
I'm like a zombie, zombie
So you can't haunt me, can't haunt me
I'm like a zombie, zombie
So you can't haunt me, you can't haunt me
Haunt me
Resurrect me
You wrecked me
You wrecked me
Haunt me, haunt me
You can't haunt me
Cannonball lyrics - Skylar Grey (feat. X Ambassadors)
[Skylar Grey:]
Well they can try to sink us, but I'll just swim
Because my will is stronger than a gale force wind
Look out, look out, 'cause each time I fall
I'll be crashing down, right through your walls
[X Ambassadors:]
Here I come
Cannonball, cannonball
Here I come
Cannonball, cannonball, cannonball
[Skylar Grey:]
And when they light their torches, when they scream and yell
I'm gonna raise my flag and gonna give 'em hell
Look out, look out, 'cause each time I fall
I'll be crashing down, right through your walls
[X Ambassadors:]
Here I come
Cannonball, cannonball
Here I come
Cannonball, cannonball, cannonball
[Skylar Grey:]
At the end of the day
When the air is still and the sky is grey with smoke
Who will be standing?
I challenge you all
Bombs away, bombs away
[X Ambassadors:]
Here I come
Cannonball, cannonball
Here I come
Cannonball, cannonball
Here I come
Cannonball, cannonball
Here I come
Cannonball, cannonball, cannonball
Dance Without You lyrics - Skylar Grey
So serious, all the time
I feel restrained, I feel confined
I cannot take your whispering, your whispering
I wanna dance without you (Dance without you)
For once, just let me lose myself (Lose myself)
I wanna dance without you (Dance without you)
For once, just let me lose myself
For once, let me lose myself
So insecure, so uptight
I break my neck, to be polite
I cannot take your whispering, your whispering
I wanna dance without you (Dance without you)
For once, just let me lose myself (Lose myself)
I wanna dance without you (Dance without you)
For once, just let me lose myself
For once, let me lose myself
How can I make history, with your choreography?
Take your hands off me
Take your hands off me
Before I suffocate
I wanna dance without you (Dance without you)
For once, just let me lose myself (Lose myself)
I wanna dance without you (Dance without you)
For once, just let me lose myself
For once, let me lose myself
Everything I Need lyrics - Skylar Grey
(from "Aquaman" soundtrack)
Born on the wrong side of the ocean
With all the tides against you
You never thought you'd be much good for anyone
But that's so far from the truth
I know there's pain in your heart
And you're covered in scars
Wish you could see what I do
'Cause, baby, everything you are
Is everything I need
You're everything to me
Baby, every single part
Is who you're meant to be
'Cause you were meant for me
And you're everything I need
You can say I'm wrong
You can turn your back against me
But I am here to stay
(I am here to stay)
Like the sea
She keeps kissing the shoreline
No matter how many times he pushes her away
'Cause, baby, everything you are
Is everything I need
You're everything to me
Baby, every single part
Is who you're meant to be
'Cause you were meant for me
And everything happens for a reason
It's all a blessing in disguise
I used to question who I was
But now I see
The answer's in your eyes
'Cause, baby, everything you are
Is everything I need
You're everything to me
Baby, every single part
Is who you're meant to be
'Cause you were meant for me
And you're everything I need
From The Ashes lyrics - Illenium & Skylar Grey
Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, ah, ah, yeah
Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah
I've been here before
If you want, go ahead, start a war
It's not that I'm brave
It's that I would rather die
Than for things to stay this way
Losing means nothing
If there's nothing to lose
What do you want from me tonight?
You wanna burn down everything in sight
I'm not afraid of a little fire
So light your matches
And I will rise from the ashes
(Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, ah, ah, yeah)
From the ashes
From the ashes (The ashes, the ashes)
So light your matches (The ashes)
And I will rise from the ashes
(Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, ah, ah, yeah)
(Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah)
From the ashes
(Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah)
The flames fill my lungs
Burning up everything I've become
It's not that I'm brave, no
It's that I've been here before
And I know I'll be okay
Losing means nothin'
If there's nothing to lose
What do you want from me tonight?
You wanna burn down everything in sight
I'm not afraid of a little fire
So light your matches
And I will rise from the ashes
(Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, ah, ah, yeah)
From the ashes
From the ashes (The ashes, the ashes)
So light your matches (The ashes)
And I will rise from the ashes
(Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, ah, ah, yeah)
(Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah)
From the ashes
(Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, ah, ah, yeah)
(Ah, ah, ah, yeah, ah, ah, ah, yeah)
So light your matches
And I will rise from the ashes
I Will Return lyrics - Skylar Grey
(from "Furious 7" soundtrack)
When you close your eyes,
You can see the day rewind,
All the laughs and stupid fights,
You and I we roll like thunder in the skies.
Just like a party breaks at dawn,
It never stops for long.
I will return, don't you ever hang your head,
I will return, in every song at each sunset,
Our memory is always within reach,
I will return, I will return, don't you ever hang your head.
When you're feeling empty,
I will be the fuel you need,
To keep on pushing on down the lonely street
And I'm always in the shotgun seat.
Home like headlights on the lawn,
I'm never gone for long.
I will return, don't you ever hang your head,
I will return, in every song at each sunset
Our memory is always within reach,
I will return, I will return, don't you ever hang your head.
I will return, don't you ever hang your head,
I will return, don't you ever hang your head,
I will return, in every song at each sunset
Our memory is always within reach,
I will return, I will return, don't you ever hang your head.
Invisible lyrics - Skylar Grey
I take these pills to make me thin
I dye my hair and cut my skin
I try everything to make them see me
But all they see is someone that's not me
Even when I'm walking on a wire
Even when I set myself on fire
Why do I always feel invisible, invisible?
Every day I try to look my best
Even though inside I'm such a mess
Why do I always feel invisible, invisible?
Here inside my quiet hell
You cannot hear my cries for help
I tried everything to make them see me
But everyone sees what I can't be
Even when I'm walking on a wire
Even when I set myself on fire
Why do I always feel invisible, invisible?
Every day I try to look my best
Even though inside I'm such a mess
Why do I always feel invisible, invisible?
Sometimes when I'm alone
I pretend that I'm a queen
It's almost believable
Even when I'm walking on a wire
Even when I set myself on fire
Why do I always feel invisible, invisible?
Every day I try to look my best
Even though inside I'm such a mess
Why do I always feel invisible, invisible?
Last One Standing lyrics - Skylar Grey (feat. Polo G, Mozzy & Eminem)
[Skylar Grey:]
Now you see me standin' in the lights
But you never saw my sacrifice
Or all the nights I had to struggle to survive
Had to lose it all to win the fight
I had to fall so many times (Oh-oh-oh)
Now I'm the last one standin'
[Polo G:]
Uh, you weren't with me on the cold block nights
Now you front row for the spotlight
Now the diamonds in the Audemars bright
Jets overseas for a fire flight
Young nigga on bullshit, and I ball on 'em, Bill Cartwright
Knew I could shine through the darkness
I guess I always been a star type
That lion in me made my heart fight
Coulda been a victim of a opp pipe
Took a million wishes just to get to this
'Cause we ain't the ones that the cops like
Been so many times God tested me
They only see the answers I got right
They commentin' all on the blogs
Tryna tell me how to live my life
And I waited so patiently
If you could take off, don't wait for me
No days off, grind faithfully
I keep thankin' God for savin' me
Front line, showcasin' our bravery
I know that top spot, it was made for me
It all paid off, so we felt the struggle so painfully
[Skylar Grey:]
Now you see me standin' in the lights
But you never saw my sacrifice
Or all the nights I had to struggle to survive
Had to lose it all to win the fight
I had to fall so many times (Oh-oh-oh)
Now I'm the last one standin'
[Mozzy:]
Yeah, you know the code we gotta live by
Never mind all the ice cubes on this wrist, wearin' the big body
Live by the gun, get bodied, or it's hella time in that cell
It was hella times where I failed
When I had to double back from them Ls
Bet he don't double back when he tell
'Cause it ain't no comin' back when you tell
Why would you leave me here by myself? A nigga be lonely
Ayy, I blew the whole bag on they flights, ain't leavin' the homies
If he really gang, then get him a chain, no cubic zirconies
White Zomb' and a stogie, stood firm, never foldin'
Furthest thing from a rodent, you put the jacket on and you bogus
Yeah, big dawg and they know it
I had to spin off to stay focused
Longev' on emotion
We don't abandon ship when it's hopeless
Said I been broke before and they know it
[Skylar Grey:]
I make it look easy
Like I made it overnight
I make it look easy
But you don't see the dark side
And all of the monsters I had to fight (Fight)
And all of the nightmares (Nightmares)
Made me stronger than life
[Eminem:]
(Yeah)
Y'all say I've changed
Really though? How so?
Got all this bread
I'm still sourdough (Sour tho')
I don't know, square peg, round hole
Like a block of cheese in a paper towel roll
Rocky Balboa, never been no towel thrower
Even when I got kicked to the curb
Life knocked my dick in the dirt
I got back up, flipped it the bird
'Til I earned the attention I yearned
Not to mention, I learned
How to turn resentment and hurt to an unquenchable thirst
In the simplest terms, it's revenge of the nerd
In every sense of the word
But all you see is the fame and the millions
You don't see the strength, the resilience
How I rack my brain, but it feels as if
I'm tryin' to explain it to children
So a lot of this pain isn't healin'
No escapin' it, this anger is spillin'
Almost like recreatin' the feelin'
Of 9/11 when the second plane hit the buildin'
So let 'em paint me the villain
Some of this just may be a symptom
Of havin' way too much income
But when you struggled every day just to get some
Now all of this hate is a syndrome
When they can't relate and that stems from
Money lookin' like it grows on trees
Yeah, they're green, but those aren't leaves
Sufficed to say, with every sacrifice I made
It's like I gave up my life to fame
All the nights that I lied awake
Nights I stayed up to write and prayed
Had to claw, scratch, and fight my way
Just follow me and I'll light the way
Look to the hook if your sky look grey
And rappers, how can we be
On the same level now when I gotta look down and see these
Clowns that are on the ground?
Bitch, I got clouds beneath me
Ever since I put out the EP to the height of 2003-me
You ain't see the struggle to make it out The D
Because I made it somehow look easy
[Skylar Grey:]
Now you see me standin' in the lights
But you never saw my sacrifice
Or all the nights I had to struggle to survive
Had to lose it all to win the fight
I had to fall so many times (Oh-oh-oh)
Now I'm the last one standin' (Oh-oh-oh)
Now I'm the last one standin'
