Long story short I got the cold shoulder Barked up the wrong tree Now it’s time to close that folder Put it on ice Someday you’ll repay her No need to wait and see Just play on player Play on Whoo Whoo Play on player Your heart is half past aching Play on Whoo Whoo Play on player Your heart is half past breaking Whoo Whoo All the money in the world But no taste What a waste Put it on ice And get back to the drawing board Late to the game But better late than never Whoo Whoo Play on player Your heart is half past aching Play on Whoo Whoo Play on player Your heart is half past breaking Play on Your heart is half past aching Whoo Whoo Life is like a snowball Casually rolling down the hill Never claimed to know it all I just know I can’t stay still Play On Whoo Whoo Play on player Your heart is half past aching Play on Whoo Whoo Play on player Your heart is half past breaking Play On Whoo Whoo Play on player Your heart is half past aching Your heart is half past breaking Whoo Whoo Your heart is half past breaking Play on

Your Eyes 03:41
Wake up little one Are you ok? What did you dream about? Get ready for a new day It’s all starting now Don’t let me off the hook little warrior Drag me by my shirt Fill me with euphoria Fill me with euphoria I wish that I could see the world through your eyes Armed with that look You’re never done Won’t leave a stone unturned Determined like the sun I wish that I could see the world through your eyes Sneak into your mind I want to feel the beat with your heart Gal Thank you for this roller coaster ride Sing your favorite song Stay up for a while Slowly reassemble me with your smile Float through the winter days Waltz through the summer haze Keep on dancing Keep on dancing Keep on dancing I wish that I could see the world through your eyes Sneak into your mind I want to feel the beat with your heart Gal I wish that I could see the world through your eyes Gal Thank you for this roller coaster ride Keep on dancing

Ocean 04:56
I see you sink like lead To the bottom You let the weight take over All over again I saw you dive jump ship Gone without him You feel your heartbeat slow way down And right on cue You’re swimming with the sharks again Keep it slow and steady Swimming with the sharks again She wasn’t ready Life is an ocean The waves are your emotions Life is an ocean The waves are your emotions Feel me closing in Right behind you Under the twilight Down to the darkness below I jumped and chased you down Never doubt it I feel my heartbeat slow way down And right on cue I’m swimming with the sharks again Keep it slow and steady Swimming with the sharks again I wasn’t ready Life is an ocean The waves are your emotions Life is an ocean The waves are your emotions

Skyscrapers glare above Nothing here is made from love Own a brick to put your name on Own a soul to inflict your pain on Pick one side, good or bad Binary options are the newest fad No shades inside the bubble Loud and rich is the new humble The more you harden your heart The quicker they’ll get up Just keep playing the part Who needs a punchline When they’ve already bought the setup Harden your heart The quicker they’ll get up Just keep playing the part Who needs a punchline When they’ve already bought the setup Who needs the sunshine Let them keep it up Fiction drops at a steady drip If he can’t stay captain he’s gonna sink this ship Why on earth admit defeat? You’re still a hit This tastes so sweet The more you harden your heart The quicker they’ll get up Just keep playing the part Who needs a punchline When they’ve already bought the setup Harden your heart The quicker they’ll get up Just keep playing the part Who needs a punchline When they’ve already bought the setup Who needs the sunshine Let them keep it up To the right, to the right To the right, to the right To the right, to the right Everyone you own in a box to the right All the sycophants, yes-men, Knife-bringing to a gun fight In a box to the right The more you harden your heart The quicker they’ll get up Just keep playing the part Who needs a punchline When they’ve already bought the setup Harden your heart The quicker they’ll get up Just keep playing the part Who needs a punchline When they’ve already bought the setup Who needs the sunshine Let them keep it up

You play, I watch Your way, your rules Say when, I’ll stop Your class, your school Wait a minute, let me run out, quick And get a clean sheet of paper I wanna write down every little detail Down to the last one Ask every question Bring an apple Paying up my past due attention Preach your blood and thunder Til the day is done, I wonder how I’ve waited this long I’m telling everyone I was wrong Say jump, how high You steer, I row Old lies, warm gun Bleed fast, die slow Wait a minute, let me sit up, straight My mind sharp like a laser I wanna cram in every little detail Down to the last one Ask every question Close the window, draw the curtains, Shut the door Take every little bit of you in Preach your blood and thunder Sink my ship and take me under Make me shout out your song I’m telling everyone I was wrong Preach your blood and thunder Til the day is done, I wonder how I’ve waited this long I’m telling everyone I was wrong Listen three times Always think twice Only speak once Play nice Your way, your rules Listen three times Always think twice Only speak once Play nice Your class, your school Your class, your school Preach your blood and thunder Sink my ship and take me under Make me shout out your song I’m telling everyone I was wrong

On one hand I’ve got my way And on the other one who’s to say One side breathing no stress And on the other side it’s anybody’s guess Give me one more shot of ambivalence before I hit the road Give me one last sniff of my innocence I hold tight to save the one Fade the other to oblivion Keep my eyes locked on you, no doubt One life through the door, the other out It’s shaking me back to front and sideways I bounce back rattled, eyes glazed Keep your words short so I don’t confuse myself I hear the bell but I don’t wanna to get up Don’t wanna get up Give me one more shot of ambivalence before I hit the road Give me one last sniff of my innocence I hold tight to save the one Fade the other to oblivion Keep my eyes locked on you, no doubt One life through the door, the other out Get up off the fence and don’t look back
