Crossed my heart I hope that it’s the last time I’d tell the truth If only it would come to mind It’s up to me So I guess I’ll let you decide You’re the chill running down my spine I need your trust If only for an alibi I need your love If only for to call it mine I’m never full I have a healthy appetite All my friends call my Valentine Show me your teeth Oh god, you burn me up inside Don’t lose the beat You're moving in the candle light Just hit repeat So good you should be crucified One more hit to help me unwind I’m hit Lipstick I’m hit Lipstick

Get Depraved 03:38
I like it when you take control The fun starts when we misbehave The beauty’s in just letting go And this could be our best mistake Get depraved I don’t know how to do it wrong You’re studied and I’m well rehearsed Well is it lust or is it love? Tell me, baby, which is worse? Get depraved Straight and breathe Scream at me Straight and breathe Scream at me Desire is a loaded gun Target practice with your heart Tell me, babe, am I the one? Bullseye when we fall apart Get depraved Get depraved

Let me go down, Jackie I'm in charge right now Feelin' Motown happy in a Fargo hell Fake silver hair Laissez faire Left my regrets at an auto-body shop by the Prince Come on, Eileen Throw your weight under me We make a pair Like a mule and a mare Drinking bottles at Tenants With models from Venice Oh my god. Oh my god. It must be late because we every song that the DJ plays Oh, I'm in need again I'm smoking weed again With your guy friends Young men Thought you were Lithuanian Maybe, South Carolinian A nice girl with a tight trim Fuck moving back to Michigan My dog bites but yours is nice Alexa, call 9-1-1 Let me go down, Jackie I'm in charge right now I came so quickly MuShu, kung pow! After karaoke at the Line Hotel I had plans with a friend who had friends with different plans I'm on my way to you I just got on the 2 Made me so confused With the language that you used Drinking bottles at Tenants With models from Venice Oh my god. Oh my god. And it must be late because we know every song that the DJ plays

Count up your mistakes Off to a better place Nothing left to disguise Blame it all on me Drown me in sympathy We can’t be right all the time I have something to confess I’m an empty fortress Hear me cry and watch me bleed Leave me in the back seat Stole my mind away Lost my protegé We’re a collection of scars Landed with the thieves Left without anything Honk if you like caviar I know something you don’t know We’ve got nowhere else to go Hear me cry and watch me bleed Leave me in the back seat Suffer on command (You’re) working on your tan Whatever it takes to get off The drinks here are too weak I’m still at my peak I’d quit but I’m still on the clock The only thing that ruins me Is a little bit of everything Hear me cry and watch me bleed Leave me in the back seat What I’m trying to say is I just wanted to stay put But acting on what I wanted Was just harder than it looked There’s no room to roam When you are windowless Just jitters and a straight jacket And another Sunday dress And you know, it’s not that I’m addicted I’m just a really big fan And it gets tough to keep on going I’m sure it doesn’t seem like it But I’m doing what I can Hallelujah, I’m a heathen We shout amen to that My sermon for my madame Is her belly getting fat Keep your heartache constant Show them you’re alive Show me how you lost it Teach me how to drive I can see you know your way around Other people’s lives

Check Me Out 01:44
I think I've got a flu It's right for you Oh, it's a fever dream I'm turning blue My hearts beatin' slow I need some blood flow So what do you say? You should get a raise And my insurance pays Don't you want to check me out? The meds I'm taking They just won't do I'm feeling drool I need a tissue Booze got me yellow Feed me some jello So what do you say? You should get a raise And my insurance pays Don't you want to check me out? Side effects may include: Dizziness Nausea Itchiness Back pain E.D. Hallucianation Muscle soreness Memory loss Depression So what do you say? You should get a raise And my insurance pays Don't you want to check me out?

Paralyzed 03:16
The dogs are out and I’m desperate again Don’t make me suffer I know I am damned, yes, I am the condemned Moon in the gutter You’re seven inches from a nine month shame Who pulls the trigger I was lost til I was rearranged At home with sinners Searching for a lover that I can despise Honey, will you leave me paralyzed? I see you’re restless in the way you sigh Shift in slow motion We have so much that we could share tonight A swift devotion You only want me when I’m in pain The taste is bitter (Show me the fire burning in your veins) Leave me disfigured Searching for a lover that I can despise Honey, will you leave me paralyzed? I’m terrorized, you’re victimized But no need to apologize I’m in love with how you cry, it’s paradise You’re body is a lullaby, but maybe it’s a battle cry I’m terrified, I’m mystified We’re out of time I’m frantic and a little high I’m breathing in the butterflies Can’t help it if I’m mesmerized I’m your prize The dogs are out and I’m desperate again Don’t make me suffer I know I am damned, yes, I am the condemned Moon in the gutter You’re seven inches from a nine month shame Who pulls the trigger I was lost til I was rearranged At home with sinners Searching for a lover that I can despise Honey, will you leave me paralyzed?

Forget that I am at arm’s length For I am far, far away I was blessed with a heart too big To ever let me stay I know you’re stranded On the island that I am I know you’re panicked You know that I could give a damn And now you’re falling Falling for any desperate man Honey, it’s getting out of hand You’re the only one that it felt good to leave behind Oh, how it made me feel alive

Pervert 03:33
I want it all and that’s not it I need to bite you more than a little bit So don’t be shy now, grab me quick Because I want to live inside your lips When you look at me and you touch yourself I can hardly breathe Oh, it’s heaven Oh, it’s hell And you can tell Am I your pervert? Or are you just bored? Am I your pervert? Cause I’ll give you all the love and pain that you ask for Am I your pervert? If it’s not better than before Honey, we will use the ropes And it’s always been your fantasy Just to have me by the throat Oh, it’s heaven Oh, it’s hell Am I your pervert? Am I your pervert? Cause I’ll give you all the love and pain that you ask for Am I your pervert? I’ll crawl, I’ll lick, I’ll beg, I’ll scream I’ll do anything that you ask of me Won’t you please, please just let me be your pervert?

Paper Thin 03:01
There’s room in my heart for so many selfish things Don’t ask me to change, it’s how I’ve always been I know you’re feeling lonely but have you ever been alone You only trust me when I’m lying, I only like you when you’re stoned You’re paper thin Send me postcards I won’t read You’ll never win No, I won’t give you anything You’re fooled again By all the thoughts you have to think You’re paper thin It’s cute you think I’m angry, it’s nice you think I’m mad I’m glad it wasn’t too hard for me to feel bad So when we share a glass, we’ll talk of pretty things We can share a past until I need to leave You’re paper thin Send me postcards I won’t read You’ll never win No, I won’t give you anything You’re fooled again By all the thoughts you have to think You’re paper thin

Sweet Misery 03:59
Slow down, won’t you Before I fall too far behind My worst fears come true I’m certain now, I can’t make up my mind So when I let you down, don’t be so naive I had nothing to give you when I was a thief I’ve been spending time trying to forget Now there’s no one left And all that waits for me is… Sweet Misery Sweet Misery Oh, Honeymoon I will cherish letting go Oh, Honeymoon Blame it on the chemicals Give up on me Now you’ve become a ghost A whispered memory Blood running from my nose Our names on the marquee I’m keeping everything To be buried with me and… Sweet Misery Sweet Misery Oh, Honeymoon I will cherish letting go Oh, Honeymoon Blame it on the chemicals

Champagne 03:59
Say it don’t matter Swear on my name Write the last chapter Keep the ending vague Wait, it’s not over I can’t stay away (And) you hate me when I’m sober No, you don’t need to explain I won’t survive on my own, Love If I find a way to you again Do not cast me aside If I find a way to you again Keep me chained at your side Sleep til you feel better Gather up your pain (Now) you sink as you flounder In an ocean of champagne I could learn to cool my temper If you learn to take the blame I won’t survive on my own, Love If I find a way to you again Do not cast me aside If I find a way to you again Keep me chained at you side If I find a way to you again If I find a way to you again I was in no condition to love you I was in no condition to love you
