Therapy
I’m not Angry, My hearts a weapon and I’m well armed
I’m not frightened, There’s another door down the hall
I’m not bitter, I got the life that I wanted so
U smelled some blood but your trails cold
If I was a flower, I’d only open for a chosen few
If I was a painting , I’d only hang for a private view
If I was a question, You might never get the answer right
You smelled some blood but your cold as ice
This is no therapy, With you gawking at my life like some accident scene
And the truth would make you scream, But I have no need to confess
Just for your entertainment
I’m not Angry, I find that talking doesn’t help too much
I’m not frightened, Once you been down ya gotta get back up
I’m not bitter, I chose carefully and I’m not tied down
I’m facing the future with my feet up off the ground
This is no therapy, With you gawking at my life like some accident scene
And the truth would make you scream, But I have no need to confess
Just for your entertainment, You’ll say put on your talk show best girl
But each and every one of these scars, Once bled.
He said, bleed a little bit
He said, bleed a little bit, just, bleed for me girl
This is no therapy, With you gawking at my life like some accident scene
And the truth would make you scream, But I have no need to confess
Just for your entertainment, You’ll say put on your talk show best girl
But each and every one of these scars, Once bled.

Happy Land
I’ve got, 2 words etched on my sleeve
I’ve got a shirt that’s way too big for me
I’ve got a big old cheshire smile on my face
and all those nasty voices in my head are full of grace
and I will milk every drop that I can
if this kills me I’ll have my day in happy land
I’ve got wonderfully messy sheets
I feel like im gonna throw up when I know were gonna meet
Ive got an urge to dance around my house without no clothes on
And change my outfit 15 times before we go out to a show
and I will milk every drop that I can
if this kills me I’ll have my day in happy land
this is uncool and I don’t care
ill pay tomorrow but today im in the air
now ive become one of those people I made fun of
but id rather be, id rather be
and I will milk every drop that I can
if this kills me I’ll have one day
I will take every drop that I can
If everyone else can why not me?
And This time I’ll drink every drop that I can
It cant kill me to have one day
And I will taste every drop that I can
If it kills me ill have my day in happy land

The Rules
I pull my mini, down my leg, I try to balance what I let you see
there’s so many, rules to follow, can’t keep track of what I’m sposed to be
And my makeup takes an hour
Cover up my personality, now I’m late to catch the bus,
Damned if I can run in these bigh heels
Aren’t you glad you’re so free, You’ve come a long way baby
And who needs a law to tell you what’s fair
and you admit all these rights, but it’s no guarantee in life,
that you’re gonna play by the same rules that they do
I got a man who, makes me weak, but love won’t bring me any more success
Can’t deny him, my attention, My career is slippin what a mess
And for him, love’s a switch, but I cant seem to find the off position
He’s gotta go, he’s got a meeting, I’ll stay home and make us some dinner
Aren’t you glad you’re so free, You’ve come a long way baby
And who needs a law to tell you what’s fair
and you admit all these rights, but it’s no guarantee in life,
that you’re gonna play by the same rules that they do
I’m afraid to come home at night sometimes
Hell why lie, I’m afraid all the time
Cannot read the papers anymore,
dont tell me what happens to girls, happened to me
Still I’m glad I’m so free, I’ve come a long way baby
And I don’t need no law to tell me it’s not fair
and Iadmit all these rights, but it’s no guarantee in life,
that I’m gonna play by the same rules that they do

Little Secret
Takes another trip to take the trash out, so neat
I painted stars up on my face cause I saw it in my dreams
And sometimes he can understand my pain
Sometimes I can understand his ways, yeah
You’re my little secret what’s the attraction they say
You’re my little secret cause I’m a crazy girl and you’re so sane
You’re my little secret but you’re not so shy when were alone
You’re my little secret and that madness is all my own
He’s the kind they call a mans man, no doubt,
I like to wear my purple shoes with my shirt on inside out
I was living on some cotton candy and a head full of steam
And you filled me up now I’m never hungry I’m never weak
You’re my little secret what’s the attraction they say
You’re my little secret cause I’m a crazy girl and you’re so sane
You’re my little secret but you’re not so shy when were alone
You’re my little secret and that madness is all my own
You’re my little secret what’s the attraction they say
You’re my little secret cause I’m a crazy girl and you’re so sane
You’re my little secret but you’re not so shy when were alone
You’re my little secret and that madness is all my own

Out of time
Bring on your shoes bring on your sunset, bring on your
sweetest smile. Tell me your lies tell me your truths tell
me you’ll make it worth my while.
Cause ive been listening to the sound of solitude in my
voice and I don’t care how they say that this is healthy I
want you back if ive got a choice
And im all thru with being coy the phone cant hold the
magic of your voice
And im out of time getting strange and it feels allright, I
cut my skin today and still and still I need you
Call me an angel call me a bad girl call my name smell
like the morning smell like irish spring smell like me
Cause ive been listening to the sound of solitude in my
voice and I don’t care how they say that this is healthy I
want you back if ive got a choice
And im all thru with being coy the phone cant hold the
magic of your voice
And im out of time getting strange and it feels allright, I
cut my skin today and still and still I need you

Biology

About the state of our global mess
They say I underachieve
But you are waiting at my house in holy jeans

How u been messing with my biology
I react to every shot u give me my blood pressures high my fever

My friends are saying its doomed
Head over heels and you_re sure to get screwed
I_ll only live once is what I said
And I_m just floating down the street singin to myself
well ok
I don_t mind
How u been messing with my biology

PRETTY GOOD 4 A GIRL
I.
Wait lemme guess that what you like is a
Shy little girl who acts reel nice
Tell me again what I get from this
Some beer belly slob with a sorry half wit
I get the drift everywhere I see just
smile look pretty and cross your knees
don’t make waves
don’t act smart
Or we’ll knock you’re a** right back to the start.
II.
Down to the jam I came to play
But the band leader looked and said no way
Uh uh little lady if you wanna sit in
Hike up that skirt here’s your tambourine
And angry boys still rule the clubs
Dumb little chickies just wait to get f****d
And when I come to play it never fails
Some fools gotta say
Pretty good for a girl

The Hallway
I have to say that I’m all done
gave this my everything but lets face it I lost
This is my most hated place to be
Nothing to hold me down in the heavy breeze
Thought I could break this doorway down
I’m five foot three, one ten and I’ll go another round
Given up most everything that meant something to me
Crawled out with one tiny shred of dignity
There’s just one sure thing that I know and I cant go back
So I’m here
Just standing in this hallway tryna find the right door
I am the first to say that I’m swollen in the head
I believe my crazy dreams are truly destiny
Sure I can cross this ocean in a leaky canoe
But if I let that sucker sink maybe I’ll know what to do
There’s just one thing that I know and I cant go back
So I’m here
I’m just standing in this hallway tryna find the right door
Standing in this hallway tryna keep my cool on
Beans and greens and cake and rice
When I make a choice I got to make it right
I’m snappin my worry beads, don’t know what stress means
I’m walkin down the street just shakin my jellybeans
When my path comes my sneaker will follow
So I’m playin in the sun till the cows come home
You wont see me jump for the first bus that comes cause
I’m waitin for the one that’ll take me home
There’s just one sure thing that I know and I cant go back
So I’m here
Just standing in this hallway tryna find the right door
Standing in this hallway tryna keep my cool on
Standing in this hallway till the right one comes along

Down To Be Down

Well i've been staring at this cup of coffee
with 10 thousand things i've not begun
and i'm waiting for life to get easy
but i've had no revelation
Still im down 2 b down
When I find where I belong
I got lost in my home town
And I cant tell who my friends are
Well I burned all of those bridges leading to roads that suck me
down
And I want u all to like me but I want much more to get out
Still im down 2 b down
When I find where I belong
I got lost in my home town
And I cant tell who my friends are
Ill take my place on the 10 most hated list
If that means I can keep my beliefs
I will keep my beliefs
Still im down 2 b down
When I find where I belong
I got lost in my home town
And I cant tell who my friends are
Still im down 2 b down
When I find where I belong
I got lost in my home town
And I cant tell who my friends are

Secret Man
Lyrics Pi
Music Pi
I saw you and your devastating pants leaning on a bus stop today
You were flirting with the bus driver I'm sure you got that ride for
free
You're everywhere I go and still we really only speak at night
when all the things I hate about you dim out with the lights
Maybe the one thing I cant admit
My nice girl suit doesn't quite fit
And if I'm so together with my head on straight if my beautiful
future's full of opportunities if there's other boys who say they
like to dance then what's up with my secret man?
You're the one I can't introduce to my friends
But leave those code words on my answering machine again
And if I ask about tomorrow you will disappear for weeks
And I'll hear you went to Mexico but I'll see you hanging out down
the street...........
Maybe the one thing that's a surprise
A man easily held, can't keep my eyes
And if I'm so together with my head on straight if my beautiful
future's full of opportunities if there's boy or two who like the way
I dance then what's up with my secret man?
Maybe the one thing I don't dare say
I can't join any club that would have me (angst)
Well I saw you dancing through the glass and so I turned away
And I saw your sweater on a pretty girl the other day
And I made this bed so I'm gonna have to lie down but I cant keep
these thoughts of you from coming around
Yeah yeah yeah
And if I'm so together with my head on straight if my beautiful
future's full of opportunities if there's so many boys who like to
dance then
Then what's up with my secret man?
