Get Me lyrics
1. Get Me
I have this different state of mind
We're in different states but still I try
To let you hear, do you hear me
Your chair was left cold by the bed
Footsteps echoed in my head
Should I have begged you please, don't you leave me
I don't see why you won't let me down
Every time, well, they all let me down
And I don't see why you won't get me down
I don't see why you don't get me
I form these words so honestly
And honestly they're all I need
To let you see, do you see me
Your secret's safe but not for long
Your weakness just makes me so strong
Now that I've caught on, don't you wrong me
I don't see why you won't let me down
Every time, well, they all let me down
And I don't see why you won't get me down
I don't see why you don't get me
I've grown so tired of having desires never filled
So sick of waiting, maybe I'm fated against my will
I don't see why you won't let me down
Every time, well, they all let me down
And I don't see why you won't get me down
I don't see why you don't get me
2. Too Troubled
It was June or July I fell into his eyes
And I thought oh, this could be it
Yet in darkness I'd sit and cry
And put myself out to dry
In a trance dancing with doubt
Oh too troubled, too troubled I am
I am
Too troubled, too troubled
I am
It was August the 8th, how much more could I take
I gave up, oh I had enough
Then I drove home 'round 4am
And I'd do it again
Something gone won't matter for long
Oh too troubled, too troubled I am
I am
Too troubled, too troubled
I am
Could more pain be all I gain
Could more pain be all I gain
Could more pain be all I gain
Could more pain be all I gain?
Oh too troubled, too troubled I am
I am
Too troubled, too troubled
I am
3. Behave
Ooh ooh ooh ooh…
You got something I can't take
Something I can't break
You got
And I want your arms around my waist
Your breath on my face
I want
Now it's too late
To tell me to behave
Oh it's too late
To tell me to behave
Ooh ooh ooh ooh…
You know when the light hits your lips
I can't resist it
And You know
So I guess the wall that you erect
Will be keeping me vexed
I guess
Now it's too late
To tell me to behave
Oh it's too late
To tell me to behave
I'm too far into what you are, what you are
I'm too far into what you are, what you are
And now it's too late
To tell me to behave
Oh it's too late
To tell me to behave
Ooh ooh ooh ooh...
4. In Your Arms
The bright day just died out
The air lingers in blue now
I'm thinking about how
I'm stuck in this town
I stole cupid's arrow
Pointed south out my window
Searching for what I know
Oh, something comfortable
Is there any way I could be in your arms
Is there any way I could be in your arms
Is there any way I could be in your arms today
This room trapped your laugh's echo
In a threshold so narrow
I'm hearing it so loud, oh
There's no way to let it go
Now these tables won't turn
So I stay seated alone
Wondering why you're gone
Oh, I know it's been so long
Is there any way I could be in your arms
Is there any way I could be in your arms
Is there any way I could be in your arms today
In your arms
Today
In your arms
Today
In your arms
Today
5. Caffeine & Nicotine
Sit up straight little child
Listen close now for a while
Don't forget your list of sins
Never let the devil win
Well I, I don't wanna
Yeah I don't wanna, oh
Yeah I don't wanna, oh
Caffeine and nicotine
Walking on a balance beam
Trying to live the dream
Of immortality it seems
Well I, I don't wanna
Yeah I don't wanna, oh
Yeah I don't wanna, oh
Say oh, I got a long way to go
I got a long way to go
I got a long way to go
But someday I'll go
Someday I'll go
Color grey outside the lines
Paradoxically wise
You grow up the shrink in size
Start and end with crying eyes
Well I, I don't wanna
Yeah I don't wanna, oh
Yeah I don't wanna, oh
6. Melancholy
Wish I could count on my fingers
All the times I feel low
I moved to my toes now
Ran out of digits
What does that show
Melancholy
Is such a disease
Maybe I'm just
Too hard to please
I just can't tell these days
Wish I could get my knees weak
It happened once then never again
I cried just to get you
Out of my system
Had to try again
Melancholy
Is such a disease
Maybe I'm just
Too hard to please
So lonely I'll be
'Till someone decides
Otherwise, oh I
I just can't tell these days
7. I Still Believe
If this ain't off my chest, well I just can't breathe
You showed a heart I hadn't seen
Caught me before I skinned my knees
When other times I'm left to bleed
I still believe though it may be naive
We are all good as human beings
I know you'll need proof, it will seek to refute that
Yet I still believe
You got a love of nerve, you got a lot of nerve
Yet you can't sense how much that hurt
Now before you utter another word
It's something I've already heard
I still believe though it may be naive
We are all good as human beings
I know you'll need proof, it will seek to refute that
Yet I still believe
Can we all just take a breather
Turn down the heater in our head
Then fill it up with logic
It's easy to be loving instead,
To be loving instead
I still believe though it may be naive
We are all good as human beings
I know you'll need proof, it will seek to refute that
Yet I still believe
8. This Building
Don't you know that I want to leave here
From my lips down the river to your ears
You look asleep but listen
By the television
With dinner left cold by the table near
Your time's not up so you should count your blessings
Breathe life in clean with ever-healing lungs
There goes another minute
Don't wanna be alone, I get it
But everyone will be there soon enough
Here I am sitting in
The top of this building and
I'm lower than I've ever been
There's clothes in the dryer and a lot on her mind
Feels a sadness that just cannot stay in side
Makes it up the stairs not falling
Puts the clothes in drawers then
Sits on the bed and lets out a sigh
He likes to think the past, well, it's just not real
And has today, this day, his only shield
Then wishes he'd never seen
His blood running unclean
But clean it is and now his wounds have healed
Here I am sitting in
The top of this building and
I'm lower than I've ever been
Don't worry ooh, I'm telling you don't worry
Don't cry just yet, you'll be crying too soon
Here I am alone and I've been thinking
We're all trying and can't afford to lose
Here I am sitting in
The top of this building and
I'm lower than I've ever been
I'm lower than I've ever been
Lower than I've ever been
9. Just World
It was just another day
Inside an empty house
Who would have thought
It would be burned from the inside out
She thought a simple way
And held a lot of trust
A hard lesson was taught
She once thought the world was just
But someone just took her breath away
The enemy in the media
And what is left to forget
Is a life once lived, well you're no different
You're no different
Empathy is calling me
When I think it's just good luck
That keeps me standing here
And this thought may leave you shocked
He left his soul that day
Placed it on the highest shelf
Went out to set a flame of shame
Across all those who know themselves
But someone just took her breath away
The enemy in the media
And what is left to forget
Is a life once lived, well you're no different
You're no different
10. Hold Me Near
The city's full of people so
Why am I so alone
My skin's breaking, the cold's waiting
To leave me shriveling
And oh, no one's here
To hold me near, hold me near
Oh, no one's here
To hold me near, hold me near
The room turns dark, the hour's marked
The time I'm wasting starts
My eyes stare out, my head screams loud
I'm lost inside the sound
And oh, no one's here
To hold me near, hold me near
Oh, no one's here
To hold me near, hold me near
Fear held me in chains so tight
That's not the hold I like
Oh, no one's here
To hold me near, hold me near
Oh, no one's here
To hold me near, hold me near
Oh, no one's here
To hold me near, hold me near
Oh, no one's here
To hold me near, hold me near
11. Wishing Well
What is it all for
Took down the closed door
And now I'm throwing it
I'm throwing it away
Crawl below my lashes
A curtain falls, a blank stare clashes
Clashes with
Clashes with your eyes
Where is my wishing well
I cannot tell
A penny for a wish I'll dismiss
Before I know it
What's behind the frame tale
A major hiding a minor scale
Watching and
Waiting as it fades away
Erase my permanent memory
Temporarily as if you
Never looked
You never looked at all
Where is my wishing well
I cannot tell
A penny for a wish I'll dismiss
Before I know it
