Are we awake? Am I too old to be this stoned? Was it your breasts from the start? They played a part For goodness' sake I wasn't told you'd be this cold Now it's my time to depart, and I just had a change of heart I'll quote "On the road" like a twat And wind my way out of the city Finding a girl who is equally pretty won't be hard Oh, I just had a change of heart You smashed a glass into pieces That's around the time I left And you were coming across as clever Then you lit the wrong end of your cigarette You said, I'm full of diseases Your eyes were full of regret And then you took a picture of your salad And put it on the Internet Then she said, "I've been so worried about you lately" "You look shit and you smell a bit" "You're mad thinking you could ever save me" "Not looking like that" You used to have a face straight out of a magazine Now you just look like anyone I just had a change of heart I feel as though I was deceived I never found love in the city I just sat in self-pity and cried in the car Oh, I just had a change of heart Then she said, "I've been so worried 'bout you lately" "You were fit but you're losing it" "You played a part, this is how it starts" Oh, I just had a change of heart (I just had a change of heart) (I just had a change of heart) (I just had a change of heart) Oh, I just had a change of heart (I just had a change of heart) (I just had a change of heart) (I just had a change of heart) (I just had a change of heart)

What's left of us What's left of our lives Its only you It's only me It's only us at the end of the night I remember when you couldnt tell me a thing Now you talk so much it drives me insane But you got you some great So what can I say to you? But I'm off that Had to fall back You got everybody thinking I'm all bad You know the truth (you lying on me?) I was always holding you down You know how we was rocking. (You down) Maybe not. (Baby) And what we see ain't what it seems or feels girl what is love? (What's that?) Love What is love? Would you believe it if I told you all about it About how pressure just keep adding up (adding up) Then we just get mad and fuck We was living fast as fuck Drugs don't get me high enough All these people always lying bout sumn I'm sorry I'm so fly so what (Fuck Imma be sorry for) I was counting zero's Ima hometown hero. Niggas green like Ceelo These niggas do anything for some C Notes At what cost Spoke wit Cedez bout some free cars I know it's niggas worse off Maybe my sense of reality is turned off Who the fuck knows?, I just make songs, who am I to challenge how this shit goes? (Sarcasm by the way) You wanna be by equal You won't even do the half This shit don't add up You don't even know the math That ain't even the half Who said it's gon even last (I didn't) Sometimes I wanna beat yo ass Wait But you know I won't do that (No) You know I won't do that (I'm sorry I said that, you know I aint mean it) Yeah Swear the fame ain't change shit, but who am I? You see the Patek and you think a nigga blowing time Is ya blind? And what we see ain't what it seems or feels girl what is love? (What's that?) Love (What is love?) (Girl) And what we see ain't what it seems or feels girl what is love? Love

The end of the night We should say goodbye But we carry on While everyone's gone Never felt like this before Are we friends or are we more? As I'm walking towards the door I'm not sure But baby, if you say you want me to stay I'll change my mind 'Cause I don't wanna know, I'm walking away If you'll be mine Won't go-oh-oh, won't go-oh-oh So baby, if you say you want me to stay, stay for the night I'll change my mind Lean in when you laugh We take photographs There's no music on But we dance along Never felt like this before Are we friends or are we more? As I'm walking towards the door I'm not sure But baby, if you say you want me to stay I'll change my mind 'Cause I don't wanna know, I'm walking away If you'll be mine Won't go-oh-oh, won't go-oh-oh So baby, if you say you want me to stay, stay for the night I'll change my mind I'll change my mind But baby, if you say you want me to stay I'll change my mind But baby, if you say you want me to stay I'll change my mind 'Cause I don't wanna know, I'm walking away If you'll be mine Won't go-oh-oh, won't go-oh-oh So baby, if you say you want me to stay, stay for the night I'll change my mind

It's a truth that in love and war Worlds collide and hearts get broken I want to live like I know I'm dying Take up my cross, not be afraid Is it true what they say, that words are weapons? And if it is Then everybody best stop stepping 'Cause I got ten in my pocket that'll bend ya locket I'm tired of all these rockers saying, "Come with me" Wait, it's just about to break It's more than I can take Everything's about to change I feel it in my veins It's not going away Everything's about to change It creeps in like a thief in the night Without a sign, without a warning But we are ready and prepared to fight Raise up your swords, don't be afraid Is it true what they say, that words are weapons? And if it is Then everybody best stop stepping 'Cause I got ten in my pocket that'll bend ya locket I'm tired of all these rockers saying, "Come with me" Wait, it's just about to break It's more than I can take Everything's about to change I feel it in my veins It's not going away Everything's about to change This is a warning, like it or not I break down, like a record spinning Gotta get up So back off This is a warning, like it or not I'm tired of listening, I'm warning you, don't try to get up There's a war going on inside of me tonight (Don't be afraid) There's a war going on inside of me tonight (Don't be afraid) Wait, it's just about to break It's more than I can take Everything's about to change I feel it in my veins It's not going away Everything's about to change It's just about to break It's more than I can take Everything's about to change I feel it in my veins It's not going away Everything's about to change Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh

One, two, three Why are you hanging on so tight To the rope that I'm hanging from? Off this island, this was an escape plan (this was an escape plan) Carefully timed it, so let me go And dive into the waves below Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables? Emotional torture from the head of your high table Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring? And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting And I'm getting fucking tired The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ended, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour You make me do too much labour Apologies from my tongue, and never yours Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man), and weaponise The false incompetence, it's dominance under a guise If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her The emotional torture, from the head of your high table She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake At least I've gotta try The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid (The capillaries in my eyes are bursting) Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant (If our love died, would that be the worst thing?) Just an appendage, live to attend him (For somebody I thought was my saviour) So that he never lifts a finger (You sure make me do a whole lot of labour) 24-7, baby machine (The calloused skin on my hands is crackin') So he can live out his picket fence dreams (If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?) It's not an act of love if you make her (And the silence haunts our bed chamber) You make me do too much labour
