I GOTTA TELL YOU RIGHT NOW
I DON'T WANNA BE AN ASSHOLE
A PLAYER
A ONE NIGHT STAND
A MAYBE SEE YA LATER

LET’S FALL IN LOVE
A GREAT MANIPULATOR
WHEN YOU’RE UP, I GOTTA ROLL
NOOOOOO, OHHHHH
I DON’T WANNA BE AN ASS HOLE
I DON'T WANNA GO BACK THERE WHERE I'VE BEEN BEFORE
ANOTHER LATE NIGHT OUT AND I’M LOOKIN TO SCORE
ANOTHER PICK UP LINE, THEY DON’T SEE THROUGH

I GOTTA TELL YOU RIGHT NOW
I DON'T WANNA BE AN ASSHOLE
A PLAYER
A ONE NIGHT STAND
A MAYBE SEE YA LATER
TYPE OF LOSER

you try to run
you want to hide
but that pain remains, & it stays way down deep inside
what hurts the most
Is you got too close
now you're haunted by the holy ghost
Haunted
You can try and disobey it
(You’re still) Haunted
It doesn’t matter how you play it
(When you’re) Haunted
Haunted by the Holy Ghost
Haunted by the Holy Ghost
Hey ain’t this fun
There’s no way out
Yeah that pain remains, & it comes screaming out your mouth
Just let it fly
Undiagnosed
You're haunted by the holy ghost
Haunted
You can try and disobey it
(You’re still) Haunted
It doesn’t matter how you play it
(When you’re) Haunted
Haunted
You can preach it you can pray it
(You’re still) Haunted
It doesn’t matter how you play it
(When you’re) Haunted
Haunted by the Holy Ghost
And if you need a friend, just look within
And exorcise it out
Give in to temptation
You’ve never been so proud
Haunted
You can try and disobey it
(You’re still) Haunted
It doesn’t matter how you play it
(When you’re) Haunted
Haunted
You can preach it you can pray it
(You’re still) Haunted
It doesn’t matter how you play it
(When you’re) Haunted
Haunted by the Holy Ghost

The only lining that I’m seein’ is silver
The only woman is you
It’s a feelin’ that don’t feel too familiar
This is love that’s true
Feels like a neon dream
You’re my angel in blue
Never thought I’d find forever
Then I found you
What’s this feelin’, that we’re feelin’?
Have you felt it before?
I thought I’d been in love (oh oh oh)
But now, ya know I’m not sure
This is something new
I’m on the edge,
& I’m fallin’ for you
The only lining that I’m seein’ is silver
The only man is you
It’s a feelin’ that don’t feel too familiar
This is love that’s true
Swept me right off my feet
You’re my partner in crime
Never thought I’d find forever
And now you’re mine
What’s this feelin’, that we’re feelin’?
Have you felt it before?
I thought I’d been in love (oh oh oh)
But now, ya know I’m not sure
This is something new
I’m on the edge,
& I’m fallin’ for you
I can’t help but love the way that I’m feelin
I can’t help but love the way that I’m feelin
What’s this feelin’, that we’re feelin’?
Have you felt it before?
I thought I’d been in love (oh oh oh)
But now, ya know I’m not sure
This is something new
I’m on the edge,
& I’m fallin’ for you

THANK YOU
& THIS MAY SOUND STRANGE
FOR TREATING ME SO BAD
ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN
I THOUGHT I HAD TO SETTLE
BUT THANKS TO YOU
NOW I KNOW BETTER
WHEN YOU BROKE MY HEART
YOU MADE A BAD DECISION
YOU BROKE MY HEART
BUT YOU FIXED MY VISION
THANK YOU
FOR THOSE SLEEPLESS NIGHTS
KEPT AWAKE BY THE FEAR
OF PAYIN’ THE PRICE
I THOUGHT I HAD TO SETTLE
BUT THANKS TO YOU
NOW I KNOW BETTER
WHEN YOU BROKE MY HEART
YOU MADE A BAD DECISION
YOU BROKE MY HEART
BUT YOU FIXED MY VISION

Absence of Love
03:56
|

Only you have access
When you’re drowning in the poison of a romance
When you’ve lost control, and you’re not sure quite how
When you’re broken, and you want someone to save you
Too stubborn to change, & too proud to turn back now
In the absence of love
You’re gonna make a mistake
Go out and get drunk, get stoned, and get laid
Then the morning after
When push comes to shove
You pray for forgiveness
In the absence of love
You’re a magnet for pretty toxic people
You let them in, and they make themselves at home
Is it too late now? Is my heart beyond repair
You cross that line, & your heart sinks like a stone
In the absence of love
You’re gonna make a mistake
Go out and get drunk, get stoned, and get laid
Then the morning after
When push comes to shove
You pray for forgiveness
In the absence of love

Yeah, Whatever

And you're primitive
And you're cynical to me
And I chewed down on the bit
And almost swallowed it
You sit all alone with your color TV
Your hair starts to glisten
In spite of the fleas
We don't have to stay friends
Let's pretend to be enemies
Yeah, whatever makes you happy
Yeah, whatever makes it beautiful
Yeah, whatever leaves you satisfied
'Cause I'm out of time
For now
And you're paranoid
As you look me up and down
And I'm soaked in gasoline
Mud and ice cream
You sit by the phone
With your tongue hanging out
You cradle the flies in the back of your mouth
We don't have to stay friend
Let's pretend to be enemies
Yeah, whatever makes you happy
Yeah, whatever makes it beautiful
Yeah, whatever leaves you satisfied
Damned if you do
Dead if you don't
Damned if you do
What if you won't
You must be aware what you're
Doing to me
We sunk like a stone on a rock
In the sea
We don't have to stay friends
We don't have to stay friends
You get what you want 'cause you won't let it die
Yeah, whatever makes you happy
Yeah, whatever leaves you insecure
Yeah, seems to break you down
'Cause I'm out of time
But I'm feeling fine

CHECKING THE MAIL FOR LOVE LETTERS
BECAUSE SHE SAID SHE’D SEND SOME HOME
FIGHTING THE URGE TO GO GET HER
I WAS NEVER GOOD AT BEING ALONE
SO, IT LOOKS LIKE I GOT STUCK HERE IN A STRANGE SITUATION
WHAT CAN YOU DO
YOU WANNA SHAKE THAT SENSE OF ISOLATION
I’VE NEVER WANTED ANYTHING THE WAY I HOPED I’D HAVE IT WITH YOU
MY MAILBOX IT STAYS EMPTY
AND MY PHONE IT NEVER RINGS
I’M SITTIN AROUND WAITING ON SOMETHING
SOMETIMES I PRAY WHEN I SING
OH, GOD HELP ME I GOT STUCK HERE IN A STRANGE SITUATION
WHAT CAN YOU DO
YOU WANNA SHAKE THAT SENSE OF ISOLATION
I’VE NEVER WANTED ANYTHING THE WAY I HOPED I’D HAVE IT WITH YOU
SOMETIMES YOU GET YOURSELF STUCK IN A STRANGE SITUATION
WHAT CAN YOU DO
YOU WANNA SHAKE THAT SENSE OF ISOLATION
I’VE NEVER WANTED ANYTHING THE WAY I HOPED I’D HAVE IT WITH YOU
I’VE HAD IT WITH YOU
