Got me pacing the streets thinking of someone I can't imagine. Just a blank face filling in the cracks where I'm not enough for your passion. Got me burned up, charred, and turned to ashes all for you 'cause whatever you brush off gets stuck to me like glue.
I can't tell if I'm the only one who thinks of you the way I do. I'm left standing here trying to read your mind 'cause, baby, I don't have a clue.
Got me screwed up, spinning around. Every whim flips me upside down. Tired of all these games of saying, now I've got a heart but things don't ever stay same. Gotta learn when I need to save myself and quit, 'cause you're worse than the cigarette hanging off your lips.
I can't tell if I'm the only one who thinks of you the way I do. I'm left standing here trying to read your mind 'cause, baby, I don't have a clue. I can't tell if I'm the only one, only one. Yeah, I don't have a clue.

Looking Over My Shoulder

Autumn leaves, as cliche as it's to say, I identify some way. Winter's end's got me hanging like a thread, not knowing what's next.
Oh, prepare me for the seasons. Oh, bury me inside.
Sometimes I feel like the train just left without me, but my legs are too weighed down to run. Sometimes I feel like looking over my shoulder, but I know there's nothing to be done. Sometimes I feel like death follows my family, but I know I'm not the only one. Sometimes I feel like looking over my shoulder, but I know there's nothing to be done.
Is it strange to look up and love the sky and simply start to cry? So it seems that I let it get me down, but I'm living on a cloud.
Oh, leave me in ocean. Carry me inside.
Sometimes I feel like the train just left without me, but my legs are too weighed down to run. Sometimes I feel like looking over my shoulder, but I know there's nothing to be done. Sometimes I feel like death follows my family, but I know I'm not the only one. Sometimes I feel like looking over my shoulder, but I know there's nothing to be done.

Queen Cynic

When I get to the city, one glance and they all just start to trip. Falling over themselves. Guess they all wind up just wanting a sip. But don't pay them no mind 'cause this shit's all mine.
'Cause I'm the lone queen of the city. Lock it down. Where's my crown? Now let's hit the town.
When I get to the country, they try to tell me that I'm just a regular girl. But I can't believe it 'cause the city men are saying I'm the best in the world. Just ignore both sides because I'm all mine.
'Cause I'm the lone queen of the city. Lock it down. Where's my crown? Now let's hit the town.

You think you can spin me around in your whirlpool. Well I'll show you. You thought you could dance round edge of my fire, but you got burnt. Don't think you got me playing the fool. Boy, the joke's on you. You poured that honey just get what you wanted.
So why don't you get lost, get lost in my memories. Go drown, go drown in my fantasies. You're mine, you're mine for the keeping if just, if just for the evening.
You thought that the spotlight just might burn me, but you thought wrong. Nothing you can do is ever gonna stop me from telling the truth. Somehow you always end up right, well according to you. But someday everyone's gonna know.
So why don't you get lost, get lost in my memories. Go drown, go drown in my fantasies. You're mine, you're mine for the keeping if just, if just for the evening.

Looking forward, but the sun's in my eyes and the dust's in my mouth and the trail I was on is broken. Walking with you, wanna take your hand and hold it close but not too tight. I'm lonely. And my search for a flat piece of land has left me rocky. And my search for eternal love has left me bone dry.
Cause' the future's just near enough to see, and the past is coming right up behind me. No there's no time between them, no time between them.
On a cliffside looking over the edge, know the drop would kill me. Barely alive, you got me broken. Being near you, got me stuck to your side like I'm scared at night but it's just a lie. I'm lonely. And my search for a piece of shade has left me burning. And my search for eternal love left me empty.
Cause' the future's just near enough to see, and the past is coming right up behind me. No there's no time between them, no time between them.

Cigarettes

When we first met, you repulsed me. I was very young and you were so old, synonymous in conversation with experience and class, but I coughed at your cheap perfume. And I was not ashamed to do so.
Years later, you were good to me at all hours. Years later, holding my hand with a quiet warmth. Years later, you were good to me - you were cheap and nasty, but so was I.
No longer as young but never quite as old as you. And you aged faster and faster. I was old enough now to see your influence, jet black and clogging up the drains. Every brush of a hand on their backs has got you picking deep the pockets of their souls. But somehow, when you finally killed them, I clung to you harder, would meet you anywhere. And I was so ashamed to do so.
Years later, you were good to me at all hours. Years later, holding my hand with a quiet warmth. Years later, you were good to me - you were cheap and nasty, but so was I.
Whispered to me until I was sick. Whispered to me until I wretched all over your shoes, all over your shoes. Whispered to me until I was sick. Whispered to me until I had to say "I still love you with my black heart", with my black heart.
Years later, you were good to me at all hours. Years later, holding my hand with a quiet warmth. Years later, you were good to me - you were cheap and nasty, but so was I.
