Oh, I will never let you down. You can trust my word until the world burns. (2X)
 
Take my hand, and we'll go down by the sea. 
And nothing else will matter except for you to be with me.
And I spent all my money, but I got you by side.
All my worries subside.
Buckle up, this is gonna be a hell of a ride.
 
Oh, I will never let you down. You can trust my word until the world burns.
 
My heart is catching fire. 
Baby, you are my water.
Put it out. Put me out. Cool me down.
Speaking of out, lets get out of this town.
And we'll do what we do best, live for tonight, forget the rest.
We'll pursue our happiness.
 
I don't know what love means, but this means everything. 
I don't know what love means, but you, you mean everything.
 
Oh, I will never let you down. You can trust my word until the world burns. 
 

Catching Fire

Jealousy comes helplessly and it seems to be our specialty.
Secondly, we recklessly find an escape in ecstasy.
We, you and me, find ourselves to be our own sponsers.
We are, we are, we are.. 
Green Eyed Monsters.
 
Take a breath. 
Decide who you want by your side tonight.
I won't, I won't waste your time or mine. 
So, take a drink. 
Sit back.
Watch your entire world collapse.
Never know what you have, until I'm gone. 
 
Jealousy and what used to be are running through my head.
I can't explain a thing. (2X)
 
I've got past lovers lined up at my door.
And I don't know exactly what they're here for.
But five years have gone to fast, and I don't know what to say about my past.
Don't get this mixed up with, what you think this is.
You don't know what this is.
 
Keep this close. Always to my heart.
Even though it was trash from the start.
Keep this close. Always to my chest.
Our love was left for dead.
 
Jealousy and what used to be are running through my head.
I can't explain a thing. (2X)

Green Eyed Monsters

I don't want you to stay.
I don't want you to be with me.
I just gotta let you know that I'm over the fact that you let me go.
I've got to fly away.
To a new town, new place, new girl, new thighs, new face.
And I can't wait..
For you to..
 
Call me back and say you love me, but I won't say it back.
The only thing that I'll say is, "I wish you would come take your shit back." 
Oh, I'd love that.
For you to..
Call me back and ask me over, but I won't crank my car.
Won't go one mile for you, 'cause you wouldn't go that far for me.
Why can't you see that I'm just fine?
 
Don't even bother saying you're sorry now.
You're wasting time, I'm dressing up, making my way downtown.
Just pack your bags.
Don't forget anything.
'Cause God know, Oh God knows you'll be back to say you miss me.
And I can't wait for you to..
 
Call me back and say you love me, but I won't say it back.
The only thing that I'll say is, "I wish you would come take your shit back." 
Oh, I'd love that.
For you to..
Call me back and ask me over, but I won't crank my car.
Won't go one mile for you, 'cause you wouldn't go that far for me.
Why can't you see that I'm just fine?
 
You don't miss me.
You miss my company.
So please tell me why I'm the only one pulling our side of the rope on this tug of war.
Am I not enough for you to fight for?

The Words I Want to Say

You put those stars to shame with that smile.
With that gleam in your eyes.
That screams at me that it's alright to be a bit afraid of the daylight.
It's those moments when eyelashes kissed my cheek.
When you grinned at the air, my knees crumbled in a weak..
My knees crumbled in a weak show of desperation and unbroken stares.
 
Do you even know what you do to me, when you shut your eyes and sing?
Honestly, do you know?
Tell me.
 
If the world dripped silver like the smog of cigarettes and half-closed lips,
Would it be easier to forget you and everything you meant?
I know it's a burden being here, being near, but I can't help but wish for this.
 
Hope was born in your fingernails.
Tracing patterns on my skin. 
It was never difficult to let you in.
It was love in a paper note caressed between our palms.
Miss Stethoscope, could you feel my heart beat with every word?
Between those blue and beige washed walls.
 
If the world dripped silver like the smog of cigarettes and half-closed lips,
Would it be easier to forget you and everything you meant?
I know it's a burden being here, being near, but I can't help but wish for this.
 
It's hard to open my eyes and admit that your gone.
It's hard to put every kiss into a song.
There's plenty of fish in the sea, but I've never been that good a catch.
It's easy to walk the plank, when your ship's already been smashed.
 
If the world dripped silver like the smog of cigarettes and half-closed lips,
Would it be easier to forget you and everything you meant?
I know it's a burden being here, being near, but I can't help but wish for this.
 
I can't help but to wish for this.
