You're a nightmare in the daylight
You're my own personal hell
You torture me so emphatically
In a way you do so well
Blood red lips
From where you chewed up my insides
Tell me baby
Are you loathsome tonight?
You tell me things
You know will break my heart
Nothing left for me to do
But wait to fall apart
Bright green eyes
But you aren't the jealous type
Tell me baby
Are you loathsome tonight?
As my memory decays
I'll cling on to my hate
Tell me baby
Are you loathsome tonight?
It stands to reason
You're the girl that i can't live without
So tell me baby
Are you coming home tonight?

Lies

She told him such lies
Made him tear out his eyes
Just to avoid her sadistical smiles
So he lied to himself
It's what he does best
He tries to take the easy way out
It's the lies, lies, lies that we tell ourselves x3
We lie to ourselves
It'll all be ok
They tell themselves every day
Just to avoid a horrible truth
So they plastered their smiles
It was fine for a while
But the lies never quite went away
It's the lies, lies, lies that we tell ourselves x3
We lie to ourselves

Lovin' Me Ain't Easy

I fell fast, i fell hard
I was having trouble getting up off the ground
There's blood, on my knees
From where i landed saying darling baby please
Don't go, don't go
'Cause i need you to know
Lovin' me ain't easy x2
You picked me up off the floor
Like you've done so many times before
'Cause loving' me, ain't easy
Easy at all
Out of sight, out of mind
Running out of patience, running out of time
No grudge, no blame
You could do better but it wouldn't be the same
So don't go, don't go
'Cause i need you to know
Lovin' me ain't easy x2
You picked me up off the floor
Like you've done so many times before
'Cause loving' me, ain't easy
Easy at all

Fine

Would it be ok if i told you a lie?
I think i'm probably doing fine
It's a little hard to say for sure
If you ignore the bottles by my head
And the smell of whiskey one my breath
It makes it easier to pretend
Don't know where to go
Don't know what to do
I'm gonna struggle
Without you
These days i don't tell so many jokes
The laughs feel hollow and full of smoke
It's a little hard to try and smile these days
I get real tired and i go to bed
And i lay awake all night instead
It's a little hard to turn off my brain
Don't know where to go
Don't know what to do
I'm gonna struggle
Without you

You Gotta Go

I couldn't give a reason, couldn't say what for
But all i wanna see is you walk out the door
You used me and abused me, treat me like a dog
But now you've slipped and now you've tripped and i won't take any more
You gotta go, you gotta go, you gotta go go go x3
You gotta go, go, go go go, you gotta go
I've still got the foot prints that you left on my back
I'm sick of lying down, i'm going on the attack
Pedal to the floor i'm cutting my break lines
There's no way i'm getting off this getaway ride
You gotta go, you gotta go, you gotta go go go x3
You gotta go, go, go go go, you gotta go
