Bandaids
I'm a mouse in a maze
I'm entranced in the game
Everyone's watching
Why are they watching?
I'm stuck in this place
I'm trying to escape
But they just keep watching
Just keep taunting
Just keep watching
Some or other way
Something's gotta change
These Bandaids are wearing
And these wounds just keep flaring
I'm desperate for a place
That reminds me of you
I need somewhere safe
I'm lost without you
I'm lost without you
The days are long
The nights, they're cold
I'm stripped of you
I slowly unfold
Well, I put these Bandaids on each day
And with each night, we both decay
These Bandaids never let me heal
These Bandaids aren't even real
I peel them off, beneath I find:
The same damn wounds every time
Some or other way
Something's gotta change
These Bandaids are wearing
And these wounds just keep flaring
I'm desperate for a place
That reminds me of you
I need somewhere safe
I'm lost without you
I'm lost without you
God, it hurts to be so raw
Damn, it never helped at all
They're giving up, they're walking away
But I can't scream, no I just can't say:
"I need you the most when I push you away,"
I need you the most when I push you away
You're giving up, you're walking away
But I can't scream, no, I just can't say:
"I need you the most when I push you away,"
I need you the most when I push you away
Away
Some or other way
Something's gotta change
These Bandaids are wearing
And these wounds just keep flaring
I'm desperate for a place
That reminds me of you
I need somewhere safe
I'm lost without you
I'm lost without you

Catch Me If You Can
I'm a stone cold lover, walk alone, no looking back
No star crossed lover, this wolf has finally left its pack
Well, I was locked up for years, but now I'm running free
I am stronger, I am wiser, you cannot catch me
But catch me if you can…Catch me if you can...
But I bet you won't
& even if do you, you'll just run away
I'm a siren, captivate you with all hell to pay
& you can try, you can try until your dying day
But oh, no no no, you will not catch me
You will not catch me
But catch me if you can
Catch me if you can
String up your bait & watch me dance for you
I'll let you think you've won, but I am wild & free
Oh no no no, honey, you can't catch me
Well just maybe, just maybe you will not cage me
But I'm not risking all I've built so you can try to save me
But catch me if you can…Catch me if you can...
But I bet you won't
& even if do you, you'll just run away
I'm a siren, captivate you with all hell to pay
& you can try, you can try until your dying day
But oh, no no no, you will not catch me
You will not catch me
But catch me if you can
Catch me if you can

Chaos (In My Head)
I'm all or I'm nothing, I'm in or I'm out
I wanted a little bit, but I don't know how
I'm cool, I'm confident; Or I'm freaking out
I'm controlled & together, or I'm breaking down
I can't hold it together, when you're not around
But that just sounds stupid, so I won't make a sound
I'll tell you too much, I'll tell you nothing at all
I'll scare you away & then I’ll ignore your calls
I am dark, I am light; take me for who I am
I am wrong & I am right; take me for who I am
Can we just pretend we'll feel this every night?
Can we just instead let this feel so right?
Well I know I get defensive, but I'll hide my fears away
& maybe just for tonight, I'll let that be okay
Let me taste your lips, Leave or shoes by the bed
Hold me close for the kiss, live in this moment instead
Calm the Chaos In My Head
The Chaos In My…
I am dark, I am light; take me for who I am
I am wrong & I am right; take me for who I am
My emotions are raw, my emotions run high
But the love that I give will be worth your time
I am far from perfect, but no one is
Hold me close; all I need is this
All I need is...
I am dark, I am light; take me for who I am
I am wrong & I am right; take me for who I am
I am fragile, I am tough; take me for who I am
I am brave, I come undone; take me for who I am
Take me for who I am

Up Up Down Down
It’s inside of me; breathing, breeding
Inside of me
I can’t decode what this is
Just cut it out, I’ll take the hit
& I can live with this, if this is living
I can just live like this, always running
Up Up, Down Down, drag me around
Anxiously waiting for the next meltdown
& Down Down, Up Up, I’ve lost all control
My mind is breaking (racing) & I’m ready to fold
Oh, I’m ready to fold
Up up down down, I’m ready to fold
& God, I miss you, but what’s the point?
As long as it’s here, we’ll never be joint
Then will this be over? Then will I see?
Will these wounds finally heal…
When the Bandaids are clean?
When the Bandaids are...
Up Up, Down Down, drag me around
Anxiously waiting for the next meltdown
& Down Down, Up Up, I’ve lost all control
My mind is breaking (racing) & I’m ready to fold
Oh, I’m ready to fold
Up up down down, I’m ready to fold
The Devil & God Are Raging Inside of Me
This Chaos inside of me
Nobody can see, no one else can see
Nobody but me

Sink
You see my face, but do you know me?
No you don't know me...
I'm a piece that doesn't fit, I'm a line that doesn't rhyme
You would love to see me quit, but I'll get back up every time
I'll dress how I want to dress
I'll kiss who I want to kiss
This is my own perfect mess
You can swing, but yeah, you'll miss
You don't have to cheer for my team
You don't have to believe, but it's still me
I am just one voice, but I refuse to Sink
You are not the only voice; I won't let you Sink
& I'm pushing through…but yeah, I'm tired
So tired...
Will someone tag me out?
Just give me a break
If you’ll just tag me out,
Will you please stay?
& No one seems to get it,
At least no one I see
But what if you reject me?
Then where will that leave me...?
You don't have to cheer for my team
You don't have to believe, but it's still me
I am just one voice, but I refuse to Sink
You are not the only voice; I won't let you Sink
I can't be the only voice, I can't be the only one
I can't make you believe, but I hope that you can see
That I only want to love, that I only want to feel
No, they will never make me Sink
I refuse to Sink
You don't have to cheer for my team
You don't have to believe, but it's still me
I am just one voice, but I refuse to Sink
You are not the only voice; I won't let you Sink

Impressive
I walk in the room
& all stares fall on me from all but you
Your eyes glaze past mine, so why do I try?
Onto the next one, it's not worth my time
I'm over you & your pretenses
& It's about time you knew that I'm Damn Impressive
I'm Damn Impressive & don't you forget it
I don't mean to be rude, you go & do what you do
I'll take the stage, I'm the next new craze
I'll wait for the next one
Til then, I'll ride this on my own
It's not lonely being alone,
I'm not lonely being alone
I'm over you & your pretenses
& It's about time you knew that I'm Damn Impressive
I'm Damn Impressive & don't you forget it
I'm Damn Impressive
Step to the side, back of the line; I'm Impressive
Open your eyes, it shouldn't be a surprise; I'm iridescent
Woah-oh-oh-oh! (x4)
Perfection isn't what I claim, but I tell myself every day
What I'm worth & what I'll take
What is real & what is fake
Arrogance isn't in my name
But I stand tall, I own it all
These scars on my sleeve
I'm smart, I'm pretty, I'm obscene
All of these *Monsters I Defeat*
Every day, I build my strength
Every day I'm proud to be
So Damn Impressive
& don’t you forget it
