How To Love

One two three

I've been running from the pain
Trying not to feel the same
But it's a shame that we're sinking
See, my confidence is shaking
And my heart is feeling vacant
So you try to fill it in

You say "I could fix the broken in your heart
You're worth saving darling"
But I don't know why you're shooting in the dark
I got faith in nothing

But love, pray for me
I never had somebody
So I don't know how to love
Pray for me
I know I need somebody
So I can learn how to love

I know it's been a while
Cause my memory's on trial
For the way I used to be
My head is running miles
Round in circles and I try
To find the little light in me

You say "I could fix the broken in your heart
You're worth saving darling"
But I don't know why you're shooting in the dark
I got faith in nothing

But love, pray for me
I never had somebody
So I don't know how to love
Pray for me
I know I need somebody
So I can learn how to love

I know I need somebody
I know I need somebody
I know I need somebody
So I can learn how to love
How to love
How to love
So I can learn how to love
How to love
How to love
How to love
Love, love, love, love, love, love, oh
I know I need somebody
I know I need somebody
I know I need somebody
So I can learn how to love
(Need somebody now
How to love, love
How to love, love)

Broken Drum

My heart still beats like a broken drum
To the rhythm of a played out love song
Your voice still haunts like a melody
Even out of key, you were still a song to me

Turn it on, turn it up, you're my radio
Every line got me hooked, I can't let you go
Can we live? Can we love? In stereo
Even out of key, you were still a song to me

It was still a song to me, yeah, it was still a song to me
My heart still beats like a broken drum
My heart still beats like a broken drum
Drum, drum, drum, drum, drum, drum

No I can't let you go, go
No, no I can't let you go, oh

My heart still beats like a broken drum
To the rhythm of a played out love song
Your voice still haunts like a melody
Even out of key, you were still a song to me

Turn it on, turn it up, you're my radio
Every line got me hooked, I can't let you go
Can we live? Can we love? In stereo
Even out of key, you were still a song to me

It was still a song to me, yeah, it was still a song to me
My heart still beats like a broken drum

My heart still beats like a broken drum
To the rhythm of a played out love song
Your voice still haunts like a melody
Even out of key, you were still a song to me

Hero

I let my soul fall into you
I never thought I'd fall right through
I fell for every word you said
You made me feel I needed you
And forced my heart to think it's true
But I found I'm powerless with you

Now I don't need your wings to fly
No, I don't need a hand to hold in mine this time
You held me down, but I broke free
I found the love inside of me
Now I don't need a hero to survive
Cause I already saved my life
Cause I already saved my life

I fell into your fantasy
But that's all our love will ever be
I lost hope in saving you and me
You think I'm lost, falling apart
But your lies just made a stronger heart
My life is just about to start

Now I don't need your wings to fly
No, I don't need a hand to hold in mine this time
You held me down, but I broke free
I found the love inside of me
Now I don't need a hero to survive
Cause I already saved my life
Already saved my life
I already saved my life
Already saved my life
I already saved my life

Now I don't need your wings to fly
No, I don't need a hand to hold in mine this time
You held me down, but I broke free
I found the love inside of me
Now I don't need a hero to survive
Cause I already saved my life
Already saved my life
I already saved my life
Already saved my life
I already saved my life

Now I don't need your wings to fly

Devil

[Intro - Busta Rhymes (B.o.B):]
Cash Cash
Busta Bust
Neon
(It's Bobby)

[Chorus - Neon Hitch:]
I've been dancing with the devil, he was always good to me
And I've been walking in the shadow of a friendly enemy
But now I'm f*cking broken, living in the moment
Shoulda known that you would bring me down
Yeah, I've been dancing with the devil, like, oh, oh, oh, oh

The Cash Cash make my ass bounce back

[Verse 1 - B.o.B:]
It's Bobby
I guess I'll play the bad guy
I swear I told you last time
You knew I wasn't good for you
But you swore you hit the jackpot
And you swore you struck gold
You were stepping on your toes
Always tripping over nothing
But nothing's on the floor
I swear the time it takes
To congregate and conversate
Just so things don't complicate
I just don't have the time of day
To try to pay attention to what your momma say
She just moving lips, moving lips
Talking 'bout stupid shit, stupid shit
And she don't know how to keep the man
But she can move them hips, move them hips

[Chorus - Neon Hitch:]
I've been dancing with the devil, he was always good to me
And I've been walking in the shadow of a friendly enemy
But now I'm f*cking broken, living in the moment
Shoulda known that you would bring me down
Yeah, I've been dancing with the devil, like, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 2 - Busta Rhymes:]
Let's go!
And I love the way shorty get low
And the way she bending over and she touching on her toes
Momma see me looking at her then she wanna pose
I don't even know why shawty got on any clothes
And you really know already what I'm gonna drop
Hella money, mami wanna come up to the top
I walk a little closer then I do my Diddy bop
I love the way she moving and the way she make it pop
And I'm loving the way that you're making it bounce and you're moving it, doing it
See the way that you're breaking it down and the way that you got them all losing it
Get it, lit, shake it, shake it
Bounce, turn up, level, level
Do it nasty like you out here dancing with the devil

[Bridge - Neon Hitch:]
Hey, hey, hey
I knew you were trouble, trouble, trouble
Don't wanna look you in the fa-a-ace
I knew you were trouble, trouble, trouble

[Chorus - Neon Hitch:]
I've been dancing with the devil, he was always good to me
And I've been walking in the shadow of a friendly enemy
But now I'm f*cking broken, living in the moment
Shoulda known that you would bring me down
Yeah, I've been dancing with the devil, like, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Outro - Neon Hitch (Busta Rhymes):]
Shoulda known that you would bring me down
Yeah, I've been dancing with the devil, like, oh, oh, oh, oh
[The Cash Cash make my ass bounce back]
(With the devil
W-w-w-with the devil
D-d-d-dancing with the devil)

Aftershock

We're caught deep in the eye of the storm
Every battle's been lost or won
I still feel it, I still feel it
Even when you've won, even when you've won
We're at the end now the worse is through
But our world is cracked in two, yea
I still feel it, I still feel it
Even when you're gone, even when you're gone

Cause I, I can't stop shaking
Million miles away but I still feel it, can you feel it

Nothing can stop the ground from breaking
Can't stop the world, can't stop it
Nothing can stop my hands from shaking
Even when you're gone there's the aftershock
Even when you're gone there's the aftershock

I still feel it
Even when you're gone there's the aftershock

This time there's a warning sign
Brace hard for a heavy fall, yea
I still want it, I still need it
Even though it's wrong, even though it's wrong

Cause I, I can't stop shaking
Million miles away but I still feel it, can you feel it

Nothing can stop the ground from breaking
Can't stop the world, can't stop it
Nothing can stop my hands from shaking
Even when you're gone there's the aftershock
Even when you're gone there's the aftershock

Even when you're gone there's the aftershock

Nothing can stop the ground from breaking
Can't stop the world, can't stop it
Nothing can stop my hands from shaking
Even when you're gone there's the aftershock
There's the aftershock
I still feel it
Even when you're gone there's the aftershock

The Gun

Oh, I never should've dropped the gun down, baby
Oh, I never should've trusted you, I'm crazy
Have I been attacked? Took two shots to my heart
I'm like oh, oh, I never should've dropped the gun

Bang bang, chicka, bang bang
Bang bang, chicka, bang bang
Bang bang, chicka, bang bang
Bang bang, chicka, chicka, bang bang

[Trinidad James:]
I need liquor in my system, man, less emotion
Ten shots in my glass, baby, now I'm loaded
I'm looking for love, baby, with no devotion
Get your mind off my money, bitch, or get demoted
I thought love was the motive, I was wrong
Trust issues, bitch, I got a stone
I let it rain, let it rain, let it pour
Here's a few things that I think you should know
These girls ain't loyal, so I can't trust no bitch
These girls don't love you, so they can't come get shit
Can't get a whip, no she can't
Can't get a purse, no she can't
Can't get my heart, no she can't
Don't every try to shoot me down or I'mma bang bang
James

[Chrish:]
Oh, I never should've dropped the gun down, baby
Oh, I never should've trusted you, I'm crazy
Have I been attacked? Took two shots to my heart
I'm like oh, oh, I never should've dropped the gun

Bang bang, chicka, bang bang
Bang bang, chicka, bang bang
Bang bang, chicka, bang bang
Bang bang, chicka, chicka, bang bang

[Dev:]
He cocked it first, dropped it back
I let him have it, heart attack
Kiss him then miss him, cardiac
Then put him in the back of the Cadillac
Tuck the gun for some fun
Turn it around, give me some
Whose gun's big now? Showed up, showdown
I made him my playmate, and this is my playground
Work, one round, two rounds
I wanna party, pour a Bacardi
Work, one round, two rounds
I wanna party, pour a Bacardi
La la la la la la la la, la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la

[Chrish:]
Oh, I never should've dropped the gun down, baby
Oh, I never should've trusted you, I'm crazy
Have I been attacked? Took two shots to my heart
I'm like oh, oh, I never should've dropped the gun

Bang bang, chicka, bang bang
Bang bang, chicka, bang bang
Bang bang, chicka, bang bang, chicka
Bang, chicka, bang, chicka, bang, chicka, bang, chicka
Bang bang, ba-ba-ba-ba-bang, chicka, bang bang

Never should've dropped the gun
Bang bang, chicka, chicka, bang bang

Turn

Every night, I wonder where we are
What you're thinking of, is it even love?
Close your eyes, let me show you now
What we're fighting for, you were never sure, no

Does it have to be perfect?
What the hell are we doing?
Maybe we can get through this

Cause on the darkest night
We're turning, the world is turning around
And at the lowest tide
We're turning, the world is turning around
You know I'm on your side
Gonna hold you up when the waves collide
Cause on the darkest night
We're turning, yeah, we can turn it around

Yeah, we can turn it around
Cause on the darkest night
We're turning, yeah, we can turn it around

Is the love lost between the sheets
With the memory of what used to be?
Take me now, take me all the way to the highest heights
We can make it right now

Does it have to be perfect?
What the hell are we doing?
Maybe we can get through this

Cause on the darkest night
We're turning, the world is turning around
And at the lowest tide
We're turning, the world is turning around
You know I'm on your side
Gonna hold you up when the waves collide
Cause on the darkest night
We're turning, yeah, we can turn it around

Yeah, we can turn it around
Yeah, we can turn it around
Yeah, we can turn it around
Cause on the darkest night
We're turning, yeah, we can turn it around

Lightning

I was all you thought you ever needed
So you said: How'd I let this slip away?
On the floor, cold and barely breathing
So it goes
Sleeping all my dreams away
'Til you found me

Like a lightning bolt to the heart
You woke me up, woke me up
Yeah, you brought me out of the dark
With just one spark, just one spark
Now I can feel your pulse
Kick starting this lifeless soul
Like a lightning bolt to heart
You woke me up, woke me up
Yeah

I was all you thought you ever needed
So you said: How the hell did I let this slip away?
Have I lost myself?
I was stumbling right on the edge
You pulled me back, for one last dance
Yeah, I was lost on the darkest road
I need your light to lead me home

Now I can feel your pulse
Kick starting this lifeless soul
Like a lightning bolt to heart
You woke me up, woke me up
Yeah
Like a lightning bolt to heart
You woke me up, woke me up
Yeah

Can you feel me
Like I feel you
Can our hearts still be together?
This is our time,
Don't you waste it
We can sing this song forever
Can you feel me
Like I feel you
Can our hearts still be together?
This is our time,
Don't you waste it
We can sing this song forever

Now I can feel your pulse
Kick starting this lifeless soul
Like a lightning bolt to heart
You woke me up, woke me up
Yeah

Arrows In The Dark

Maybe I'm a fool, I let you go
They say yes, but I say no
Maybe you can tame my wicked heart
I keep shooting arrows in the dark

Je ne t'aime pas

I like the way you talk to me, I like the way you smile
I like the way you open doors and go the extra mile
I love the way you kiss me, I love the way you rage
I love the way you let loose like a tiger in a cage

Mother says you're an angel, my father says you're the one
The apple of their eye, the prodigal sign
All my friends wanna f*ck you, every boy and every girl
But I can never love you for all the money in the world

Je ne t'aime pas
Maybe I'm a fool, I let you go
They say yes, but I say no
Maybe you can tame my wicked heart
I keep shooting arrows in the dark

Je ne t'aime pas

I love the way you treat me, you always pay for food
And you don't really mind it when I tell you what to do
Got the body of a god, a temper of a lamb
Hot like an ocean, but I'm playing in the sand

You're perfect on paper, but I don't like to read
I should really want you, but you're not what I need
All my friends wanna f*ck you, every boy and every girl
But I can never love you for all the money in the world

Maybe I'm a fool, I let you go
They say yes, but I say no
Maybe you can tame my wicked heart
I keep shooting arrows in the dark
I keep shooting arrows in the dark

Je ne t'aime pas

Maybe I'm a fool, I let you go
They say yes, but I say no
Maybe you can tame my wicked heart
I keep shooting arrows in the dark

Je ne t'aime pas
I keep shooting arrows in the dark
Je ne t'aime pas
I keep shooting arrows in the dark
Je ne t'aime pas

We Will Live

Why you so worried 'bout me?
What I eat, who I f*ck, where I wanna sleep
We're not a plague or disease
For you to cure or purify as you please

Can't fight those who feel
You can't fight who you are
No, you can't hide from the nightmare
In someone else's heart

We will live, we will love
We will never have to change for anyone
We are here, we are free
We will live as we were made to be

We are here, we are free
We will live as we were made to be

We will live as we were made to be
We will live as we were made to be

You can't control what I think
What I mean, the chemicals inside of me
And if in God, you believe
Let us live, let us live as we were made to be

Can't fight those who feel
You can't fight who you are
No, you can't hide from the nightmare
In someone else's heart

We will live, we will love
We will never have to change for anyone
We are here, we are free
We will live as we were made to be
And will it take a thousand years
Oh, to bury all your fears
We are here, we are free
We will live as we were made to be

We are here, we are free
We will live as we were made to be

We will live as we were made to be
And will it take a thousand years
Oh, to bury all your fears
We are here, we are free
We will live as we were made to be

We will live, we will love
We will never have to change for anyone
We are here, we are free
We will live as we were made to be

Take Me Home

I'm falling to pieces
But I need this
Yeah, I need this
You're my fault
My weakness
When did you turn so cold

You cut me down to the bone
Now you're dancing
All over my soul
I'm falling to pieces
To pieces, to pieces

But I still stay cause you're the only thing I know
So won't you take, oh, won't you take me home
Take me home, home, home
Take me home, home, home
Take me

Take me
Take me
Take me
Take me home (home, home, home)

Round in circles
Here we go
With the highest highs
And the lowest lows
But no one shakes me like you do
My best mistake was you
You're my sweet affliction
Cause you hurt me right
But you do it nice
Round in circles
Here we go
Oh Yeah

But I still stay cause you're the only thing I know
So won't you take, oh, won't you take me home
Take me home, home, home
Take me home, home, home
Take me

Take me
Take me
Take me
Take me home, home, home
Take me home, home, home
Take me

Take me, I still stay, oh, won't you take me home
Take me home.

Sweat

I'm feeling all this pressure and I'm trying to breathe
It's in the way you touch me and you're making me weak
Knocking down my walls, you got me down and so deep
So deep, so deep, so deep, so deep
Yeah, I'm caught up in confusion, you're too blurry to see
Cause this manic situation's getting harder to read
The waves are crashing over but I'm crashing right in
Yeah, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in

Drowning in your ocean
Swimming in a motion

You're making me sweat and I'm over my head
You're making me sweat, oh, swimming in a motion
You're making me sweat
You're making me sweat

We could do whatever, I don't even care what
Minutes turn to hours, got me gasping for air
Always dreamed of this, but now you're taking me there
Yeah, we're there, we're there, we're there, we're there
I could stay right here forever, feeling reckless and free
As long as we're together, I got all that I need
The tides are rolling over, but we're rolling right in
Yeah, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in

Drowning in your ocean
Swimming in a motion

You're making me sweat and I'm over my head
You're making me sweat, oh, swimming in a motion
You're making me sweat
You're making me sweat
You're making me sweat
Drowning in your ocean
Swimming in a motion

You're making me sweat and I'm over my head
You're making me sweat, swimming in a motion
You're making me sweat and I'm over my head
You're making me sweat, swimming in a motion
You're making me sweat, oh, you're making me sweat
Yeah, you're making me sweat
Oh, swimming in a motion
You're making me sweat
You're making me sweat

Surrender

I was running on an empty heart,
Not a trace of gasoline
Trying to dim every single spark
That could hurt, that could burn all of me

Like a soldier on the battleground
Lying wounded on the field
I was fighting alone with a broken sword
Now I'm caught in a war with no shield

If you hold me now and leave me never,
Say you'll stay with me forever
Then I surrender, surrender
If you hold me now and leave me never,
Say you'll stay with me forever
Then I surrender, surrender
Surrender, surrender

I pushed and pulled all the ones that tried,
Then I watched them fade away
As I look around a vacant room,
I see nobody left here to blame

'Cause I made myself a prisoner
Shackled up by all my fears
But I feel you breaking away at the walls,
Make them fall make them all disappear

If you hold me now and leave me never,
Say you'll stay with me forever
Then I surrender, surrender
If you hold me now and leave me never,
Say you'll stay with me forever
Then I surrender, surrender
Surrender, surrender

Hold me now and leave me never,
Say you'll stay with me forever
Then I surrender, surrender
Then I surrender, surrender
