SUX
V1
I guess it's cool
Breaking up with me over the phone
Alright, Alright
To sum it up, What I hear in your tone
Is two years means nothing
Say you want to be alone
Talk to God, and other girls
Well I hope that you figure it outHook
Treated me like I was a habit, habit
Didn't know how good that you had itChorus
Now you're at a party, you're there with somebody
but I'll be the body you miss
Drink to forget, but with every sip
you're remembering me on your lips
Now it's no fun to figure out you messed it up
Now you're at a party don't want anybody cause everybody else sucks
everybody else sucks, everybody else sucksV2
I guess it's cool, you wanna check up and see how I've been
Alright, Alright then
Not surprised that you're trying to be friends
It's not the first time
Sorry if I don't respond, don't wanna speak, your talk is cheap
Well I hope that you figure it outHook
Treated me like I was a habit, habit
Didn't know how good that you had itChorus
Now you're at a party, you're there with somebody
but I'll be the body you miss
Drink to forget, but with every sip
you're remembering me on your lips
Now it's no fun to figure out you messed it up
Now you're at a party don't want anybody cause everybody else sucks
everybody else sucks, everybody else sucksEverybody else, yeah they all suck 6x

Tension
what you've got is becoming a problem for me
I want ya I want ya
I don't know how to be acting stupid
when I'm around you
I want yaPC
when you drinkin' your coffee like that
your lips go *muah*
I can't ignore what I'm feelin' for you
when you lockin' your keys in your car
I'm like hahaha
but I want you more than I did beforeChorus
why don't we take the tension and break it down
why don't you put my body on your mind
take that pressure and work it out
don't keep it all inside
let's break the tension babynow we're here face to face
I need to know
are you gonna do it
are you gonna do it
listening to your old band in my car
are you gonna do it
make a movePC
Chorusthere's nothing else in me
when you're holding me
and every time you leave
I feel the tensionha ha ha ha
let's break the tension baby -

Lyrics
You don’t take my breath like you used to
You don’t know me like you did before
say that you wanna be how we used to
But I know, how this goesI don’t wanna work it out
I don’t wanna talk right now
I don’t wanna talk
I don’t wanna play the game
I know that it’s all the same
All the sameDon’t even waste my time
We always end up back where we started
but where we started feels like a blur
there’s always seems to be hesitation
so here we are, right where we wereI don’t wanna work it out
I don’t wanna talk right now
I don’t wanna talk
I don’t wanna try so hardI don’t wanna play the game
I know that it’s all the same
All the sameDon’t even waste my time

[Verse 1]
You're the thing I can't pin down
So I've been drawing maps
Put all the places that we've been
And I keep looking back[Pre-Chorus 1]
'Cause you can hold her at night
But we both know you're still mine
We both know you're still mine[Chorus]
Tell me that I'm the one that you're wantin' baby
That you miss me so bad and I drove you crazy
I'm not like the other girls, the other girls, the other girls
I'm not like the other girls, the other girls, the other girls
The other girls, girls, girls
The other girls, girls, girls[Verse 2]
I remember every long drive
Your hand was in mine
You keep feeling every breath you take
You say you're fine, but you lie[Pre-Chorus 2]
'Cause now you're holdin' her hand
And now she calls you her man
But we both know you're still mine[Chorus]
[Bridge]
'Cause you can hold her at night
But we both know you're still mine
We both know you're still mine[Chorus]

Lyrics
Remember when we hit
The tunnel on the bridge
How we held our breath (how we held our breath)That moment we were free
Like we were meant to be
It scared us both to death[Pre-Chorus]
We were growing up too fast[Chorus]
Don't you want to live like LA
No one gets in our way
Don't you wanna, don't you wanna
Feel nirvana
Dancing in the high school hallways
We could feel like this always
Don't you wanna, don't you wanna
Feel nirvana[Verse 2]
Remember the mistakes
The ones we use to make
How we both cry (how we both cry)We didn't stand a chance
The world was in our hands
Oh how I wish they lied[Pre-Chorus]
It could never last[Chorus]
Don't you wanna
Don't you wanna
Feel NirvanaDon't you wanna
Don't you wanna
Feel Nirvana[Chorus]
Remember when we hit
The tunnel on the bridge
How we held our breath
'Til we reached the other side (the other side)We didn't stand a chance
The world was in our hands
We can never feel like this
Oh how I wish they lied (how they lied) -

[Verse 1]
Rips all up my black jeans
Halo on my head
Racing through the back streets
Got you on the edge[Pre-Chorus]
Now you're feeling like there ain't no ceiling
I'm gonna make you see it so you're believing[Chorus]
Baby, I can take you up to heaven
Cause I'm a goddess, a goddess
Pray that you stay up here forever
Cause I'm a goddess, a goddess
Goddess, goddess[Verse 2]
I could be your paradise
Crave me like a sin
Make you feel like 16 all over again[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus][Bridge]
Hypnotized, I got you hypnotized
I got to read your mind
Give it all to me, give it all
Hypnotized, I got you hypnotized
I love what's on your mind
Give it all to me, give it all[Chorus]

[Verse 1]
Sippin' poison, ice on my spine
Hearing those voices calling deep from inside
All of the ways in which I thought you were mine
Come out to find, I'm out of my mind[Chorus]
It's in the way you
The things that you do
Making me feel like I'm hypnotized, paralyzed
But I swear this is real
It's in the way you
The way that you move
Paralyzed
It's careless and cruel
(It's careless and cruel)
I love what you do
I'm mad about you[Post-Chorus]
Mad about...[Verse 2]
Tossing and turning, first word "I'm fine"
But then you fall and tumble down to the wire
All of the ups and downs, they flame my desire
A wild fire, we're a wild fire[Chorus]
[Post-Chorus]
Mad about...
Mad about...[Chorus]

[Verse 1]
You don't have to wonder
I'm on top now
You're stealing my thunder
You can stop now[Pre-Chorus]
I know what you, what you want from me
See what you know but you don't know me
Get by my heart with just a drink, are you listening?
Not gonna be the one to what they call love
Could be a ghost cause I see right through you[Chorus]
I don't wanna dance with you
I don't wanna kiss goodnight
Don't care about your money
And I don't want a drink tonight
You better run before the thrive
You just look at my... not the type
If you get someone else to go, you should
Cause I'm good (I'm good)[Verse 2]
I used to be at so low
But I'm high now
I'll paint the whole world gold
Cause it's mine now[Pre-Chorus]
I know what you, what you want from me
Read all your lines in a magazine
You're like a record on repeat, on repeat[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Not gonna be the one to what they call love
Could be a ghost cause I see right through you
Not gonna be the one to what they call love
Could be a ghost cause I see right through you[Chorus]

I see you standing at my front porch step again
Holding your roses like a good old American
Saying things I like to hear
Here we go again, here we go again[Pre-Chorus]
Ha, new guys like you do this all the time
Yeah, you tell me you want me
But you're not the only one
Don't think I need you on my mind
We can take it slow but we already know...[Chorus]
You're gonna be my next ex-boyfriend
Yeah, we can fall in love for a week or two
Just me and you
Ah ah oh oh, ah ah oh oh
I can be your best friend, you can be my next ex[Verse 2]
I see you driving in your Mustang '69
Just keeping up with all the clouds and the power lines
I know you think you're pretty cool leaving me behind
But I don't mind, no I don't mind[Pre-Chorus]

"No Scrubs"
A scrub is a guy that thinks he's fly
And is also known as a buster
Always talkin' about what he wants
And just sits on his broke ass
So (no)I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of your time and (no)[Chorus:]
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at meBut a scrub is checkin' me
But his game is kinda weak
And I know that he cannot approach me
'Cause I'm lookin' like class and he's lookin' like trash
Can't get with a dead-beat ass
So (no)I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of your time (no)[Chorus]
If you don't have a car and you're walking
Oh yes, son, I'm talking to you
If you live at home with your mamma
Oh yes, son, I'm talking to you (baby)
If you have a shorty but you don't show love
Oh yes, son, I'm talking to you
Wanna get with me with no money
Oh no, I don't want, no (oh)No scrub
No scrub (no, no)
No scrub (no, no, no, no, no)
No scrub (no, no)
No[Chorus 4x]

[Verse 1]
I hit the border into Arizona
The air is so much warmer
Than you ever were (ever were)Woke up in a car in a pretty city
Just glad you're not with me
'Cause you never were (never were)[Pre-Chorus]
And I said
Hey, hi, hello
Nice to meet you
He said I don't think I've seen ya
I don't think I've seen ya before[Chorus]
In California
I don't even know ya
You never even occur (never occur)In California
I don't even need ya
You were just a blur (a blur)In California
Hey, hi, hello
Nice to meet you
Hey, hi, hello[Verse 2]
And so I learned how to feel alive
Driving down the 95
All before the sunrise (sunrise)I let the saltlick my wounds
Leaning up brand new
Underneath the pink sky (pink sky)[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus][Bridge]
Hey, hi, hello
Hey, hi, hello[Chorus]
