Lies-Marina and the Diamonds Cover

Music and Lyrics by Suz Fickenscher 

"My aspirations include being drunk,
and pretending to be someone else.
I do nothing and get away with everything, 
but I know I'm the reason that you wanna change.

So breathe me in and swallow me down,
cause I'm all you need to be whole again.
Stir me into your ice cold drink
and promise to take every dose of me.

I'm better than Lucy
with her eyes made of diamonds,
and I'm better than Molly
with her soft magic touch.
But it was better with Mary
when it was you and me,
so can we please stop pretending?

If I line it all out
will it all go away? 
If I could spell it all out,
would you get out of my space?
That's the true reason we weren't meant to be,
because I couldn't become the girl you wanted me to be.

If you said no to Lucy 
and said bye to Molly,
could we finally have our 'fucked up happily ever after'?
If you took me instead of just feeding your demons, 
would you stick around long enough to be honest with your feelings?

To breathe me in and swallow me down,
because I'm all you need to be whole again.
Stir me into your ice cold drink
and promise to take every dose of me.

Breathe me in.
And take away all my sins.
Let me be your drug of choice,
and promise to take every dose.

Would you breathe me in and swallow me down?
Cause I'm all you need to be whole again.
Could you stir me into that ice cold drink
and promise to take every dose of me?"

Drug of Choice

This Time Around

 Music and Lyrics by Suz Fickenscher.

Empty Spaces:
"You say my face is pretty,
So come and dance with me.
I know you think I'm witty,
So beat me at the games I've somehow learned to play.

Do you need another reason 
to come and talk to me?
Cause baby, let me tell you,
I could be your everything.

You looked at me from across the room in a way 
that made me hope that you would be the one
to fill the empty spaces left in my heart.

I'll put down my shield if you let down your guard,
but I'm tired of fighting to get to you.
So show me that you want me too.

I hope you think I'm as interesting as I often pretend to be.
I hope you'll see the beauty 
that lies between the broken pieces of my mind,
and that you won't leave me behind."

Empty Spaces

Suz Fickenscher singing a cover of "Beggin for Thread" by Banks

Lyrics:

"So I got edges that scratch,
And sometimes I don't got a filter.
But I'm so tired of eating
All of my misspoken words.
I know my disposition gets confusing.
My disproportionate reactions fuse with my eager state
That's why you wanna come out and play with me, yeah
Why?

Stooped down and out, you got me beggin for thread
To sew this hole up that you ripped in my head
Stupidly think you had it under control
Strapped down to something that you don't understand
Don't know what you were getting yourself into
You should have known, secretly I think you knew

I got some dirt on my shoes.
My words can come out as a pistol.
I'm no good at aiming,
But I can aim it at you
I know my actions, they may get confusing,
But my unstable ways is my solution
To even space
That's why you wanna come out and play with me, yeah

Stooped down and out, you got me beggin for thread
To sew this hole up that you ripped in my head
Stupidly think you had it under control
Strapped down to something that you don't understand
Don't know what you were getting yourself into
You should have known, secretly I think you knew

Hold it out, whoa
Try to hide it out, but my tracks are better
Hold it out, whoa
Try to hide it out, but my tracks are better

Stooped down and out, you got me beggin for thread
To sew this hole up that you ripped in my head
Stupidly think you had it under control
Strapped down to something that you don't understand
Don't know what you were getting yourself into
You should have known, secretly I think you knew"
