All We Are -- OneRepublic

I tried to paint you a picture
The colors were all wrong
Black and white didn't fit you
And all along
You were shaded with patience
Your strokes of everything
That I need just to make it
But I could see that
Lord knows I failed you time and again
But you and me we're alright
We won't say our goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
A lover's alibi
I walked a minute in your shoes
They never would've fit
I figured there's nothing to lose
I need to get some perspective on these words
Before I write them down
You're an island and my ship has run aground
Lord knows I failed you time and again
But you and me we're alright
We won't say our goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need all we need
A lover's alibi
Every single day that I can breathe
You changed my philosophy
I'm never gonna let you pass me by
So don't say your goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change, yeah
So don't say your goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
A lover's alibi, yeah
So don't say our goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we don't die

Too Many Lovers -- Matt White

I don't know what to do
You got too many lovers
Am I not enough for you?
You're scared to live your life
Living out your fantasies
Wetting on your appetite
Yeah
If I relax, which I won't
I'll pull your hands off my throat
And get wise to it
Yeah you were never in it for love
You were never in it for love
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Look at me now I'm free
As free as the length of your leash on my
You keep pulling it tight
Assume the worst
Baby don't you see it
When it hurts it hurts
You were never in it for love
You were never in it for love
No, na no no no
Could it be, could it be
You only need me
When you want me
Want me yeah
Could it be, could it be yeah
You only need me
When you want me
Want me
She says hey boy (hey boy)
You're gonna miss something good
(You're gonna miss something good)
You're gonna find out why
(You're gonna find out why)
That you were never in it for love
For love
Could it be, could it be
You only need me
When you want me
Want me yeah
Could it be, could it be yeah
You only need me
When you want me
Want me
It's a miracle I made it this far knowing
My love was barely breaking the surface
Could you find a little time just to let me in?
To my surprise
To my surprise
Could it be, could it be
You only need me
When you want me
Want me yeah
Could it be, could it be yeah
You only need me
When you want me
Want me
Could it be, could it be yeah
You only need me
When you want me
Want me yeah
Could it be, could it be yeah
You only need me
When you want me
Want me

Homeless -- Leona Lewis

Waiting here
For you to call me
For you to tell me
That everything's a big mistake
Waiting here
In this rainfall
Feeling so small
This dream was not suppose to break
I'm so sorry now
For the pain I caused you
Won't you please forgive
Please
But you don't love me anymore
You don't want me anymore
There's a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I'm homeless
In this cold
I'm walking aimless
Feeling helpless
Without a shelter from the store
In my heart
I miss you so much
I'm missing your touch
And the bed that used to be so warm
I'm so sorry now
For the pain I caused you
Won't you please forgive
Please
But you don't love me anymore
You don't want me anymore
There's a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I'm homeless
My baby
I'm sorry
Oh
But you don't love me anymore
You don't want me anymore
There's a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I'm homeless

Pocketful of Sunshine -- Natasha Bedingfield

I got a pocket
Got a pocket full of sunshine
I got a love and I know that it's all mine
Oh oh oh
Do what you want
But you're never gonna break me
Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me
Oh oh oh
Take me away
A secret place
A sweet escape
Take me away
Take me away
To better days
Take me away
A hiding place
I got a pocket
Got a pocket full of sunshine
I got a love and I know that it's all mine
Oh oh oh
Do what you want
But you're never gonna break me
Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me
Oh oh oh
I got a pocket
Got a pocket full of sunshine
I got a love and I know that it's all mine
Oh oh oh
Wish that you could
But you ain't gonna own me
Do anything you can to control me
Oh oh oh
Take me away
A secret place
A sweet escape
Take me away
Take me away
To better days
Take me away
A hiding place
There's a place that I go
That nobody knows
Where the rivers flow
And I call it home
And there's no more lies
And darkness is light
And nobody cries
There's only butterflies
Take me away
A secret place
A sweet escape
Take me away
Take me away
To better days
Take me away
A hiding place
Take me away
A secret place
A sweet escape
Take me away
Take me away
To better days
Take me away
A hiding place
Take me away
A secret place
A sweet escape
Take me away
Take me away
To better days
Take me away
A hiding place
The sun's on my side
Take me for a ride
I smile up to the sky
I know I'll be alright
The sun's on my side
Take me for a ride
I smile up to the sky
I know I'll be alright

Back Where We Belong -- The Last Goodnight

You kiss me, kill me, push me, pull me
Leave me wanting more
You keep your promises back behind the bedroom door
You hit me harder than I ever have been hit before
I don't know why
Baby, baby long before I met you I was
Crazy, crazy to forget you but just
Maybe, what you see is what you get for sure
Can't take this anymore
If you can feel it when it comes down
And you can see it coming around and around
If you believe this is a moment, control it
You feel it getting better
Back where we belong
We keep on playing games and reaching out for something new
I'd rather walk with you than run with the other fools
Just let your body do the talking and we speak the truth
You know I do
Baby, baby long before I met you I was
Crazy, crazy you didn't ever be my
Lady, what you see is what you get for sure
Can't take this anymore
If you can feel it when it comes down
And you can see it coming around and around
If you believe this is a moment, control it
You feel it getting better
Back where we belong
It's just a feeling, taking me over
Time after time I'm losing control
You got a lot of things to give
Got a lot of life to live
It takes a little patience, baby
But things are changing
Things are going to
Baby, baby long before I met you I was
Crazy, crazier than ever
If you can feel it when it comes down
And you can see it coming around and around
If you believe this is a moment, control it
You feel it getting better
Back where we belong
Baby, baby long before I met you I was
Crazy, crazier than ever be my
Lady, what you see is what you get for sure
Can't take this anymore

Believe -- The Bravery

The faces all around me they don't smile they just crack
Waiting for our ship to come but our ships not coming back
We do our time like pennies in a jar
What are we saving for
What are we saving for
There's a smell of stale fear that's reeking from our skins
The drinking never stops because the drinks absolve our sins
We sit and grow our roots into the floor
But what are we waiting for?
But what are we waiting for?
So give me something to believe
Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
Something's always coming you can hear it in the ground
It swells into the air
With the rising
Rising sound
And never comes but shakes the boards and rattles all the doors
What are we waiting for
What are we waiting for
So give me something to believe
Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
I am hiding from some beast
But the beast was always here
Watching without eyes
Because the beast is just my fear
That I am just nothing
Now it's just what I've become
What am I waiting for
It's already done
Oh
So give me something to believe
Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe
