Find myself at your door Just like all those times before I'm not sure how I got there All roads, they lead me here I imagine you are home In your room, all alone And you open your eyes into mine And everything feels better And right before your eyes I'm breaking, no past No reasons why Just you and me This is the last time I'm asking you this Put my name at the top of your list This is the last time I'm asking you why You break my heart in the blink of an eye, eye, eye You find yourself at my door Just like all those times before You wear your best apology But I was there to watch you leave And all the times I let you in Just for you to go again Disappear when you come back Everything is better And right before your eyes I'm aching, no past Nowhere to hide Just you and me This is the last time I'm asking you this Put my name at the top of your list This is the last time I'm asking you why You break my heart in the blink of an eye, eye, eye This is the last time you tell me I've got it wrong This is the last time I say it's been you all along This is the last time I let you in my door This is the last time, I won't hurt you anymore Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh This is the last time I'm asking you this Put my name at the top of your list This is the last time I'm asking you why You break my heart in the blink of an eye This is the last time I'm asking you this Put my name at the top of your list This is the last time I'm asking you why You break my heart in the blink of an eye This is the last time I'm asking you Last time I'm asking you Last time I'm asking you this This is the last time I'm asking you Last time I'm asking you Last time I'm asking you this This is the last time I'm asking you Last time I'm asking you Last time I'm asking you this This is the last time I'm asking you Last time I'm asking you Last time I'm asking you this

I didn't know what I would find When I went lookin' for a reason I know I didn't read between the lines And baby I've got nowhere to go I tried to take the road less traveled by But nothing seems to work the first few times, am I right? So, how can I ever try to be better? Nobody ever let's me in And I can still see you, this ain't the best view On the outside looking in I've been a lot of lonely places I've never been on the outside You saw me there but never knew That I would give it all up to be A part of this, a part of you And now it's all too late so you see You could have helped if you had wanted to But no one notices until it's too late to do anything How can I ever try to be better? Nobody ever let's me in And I can still see you, this ain't the best view On the outside looking in I've been a lot of lonely places I've never been on the outside Oh yeah How can I ever try to be better? Nobody ever let's me in And I can still see you, this ain't the best view On the outside looking in I've been a lot of lonely places I've never been on the outside Oh, oh, oh-oh Oh, oh-oh

I'm doing good, I'm on some new shit Been saying "yes" instead of "no" I thought I saw you at the bus stop, I didn't though I hit the ground running each night I hit the Sunday matinée You know the greatest films of all time were never made I guess you never know, never know And if you wanted me, you really should've showed And if you never bleed, you're never gonna grow And it's alright now But we were something, don't you think so? Roaring 20s, tossing pennies in the pool And if my wishes came true It would've been you In my defense, I have none For never leaving well enough alone But it would've been fun If you would've been the one (Ooh) I have this dream you're doing cool shit Having adventures on your own You meet some woman on the internet and take her home We never painted by the numbers, baby But we were making it count You know the greatest loves of all time are over now I guess you never know, never know And it's another day waking up alone But we were something, don't you think so? Roaring 20s, tossing pennies in the pool And if my wishes came true It would've been you In my defense, I have none For never leaving well enough alone But it would've been fun If you would've been the one I, I, I persist and resist the temptation to ask you If one thing had been different Would everything be different today? We were something, don't you think so? Rosé flowing with your chosen family And it would've been sweet If it could've been me In my defense, I have none For digging up the grave another time But it would've been fun If you would've been the one (Ooh)

I would be complex I would be cool They'd say I played the field before I found someone to commit to And that would be ok For me to do Every conquest I had made would make me more of a boss to you I'd be a fearless leader I'd be an alpha type When everyone believes ya What's that like? I'm so sick of running as fast as I can Wondering if I'd get there quicker If I was a man And I'm so sick of them coming at me again 'Cause if I was a man Then I'd be the man I'd be the man I'd be the man They'd say I hustled Put in the work They wouldn't shake their heads and question how much of this I deserve What I was wearing If I was rude Could all be separated from my good ideas and power moves? And they would toast to me, oh Let the players play I'd be just like Leo In Saint-Tropez I'm so sick of running as fast as I can Wondering if I'd get there quicker If I was a man And I'm so sick of them coming at me again 'Cause if I was a man Then I'd be the man I'd be the man I'd be the man What's it like to brag about Raking in dollars And getting bitches and models And it's all good if you're bad And it's okay if you're mad If I was out flashing my dollars I'd be a bitch, not a baller They paint me out to be bad So it's okay that I'm mad I'm so sick of running as fast as I can Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man (you know that) And I'm so sick of them coming at me again (coming at me again) 'Cause if I was a man (if I was a man) Then I'd be the man (then I'd be the man) I'm so sick of running as fast as I can (as fast as I can) Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man (hey) And I'm so sick of them coming at me again (coming at me again) 'Cause if I was a man (if I was a man), then I'd be the man I'd be the man I'd be the man (oh) I'd be the man (yeah) I'd be the man (I'd be the man) If I was a man Then I'd be the man

You should've been there Should've burst through the door With that "Baby, I'm right here" smile And it would've felt like A million little shining stars had just aligned And I would've been so happy Christmas lights glisten I've got my eye on the door Just waiting for you to walk in But the time is ticking People ask me how I've been As I comb back through my memory How you said you'd be here? You said you'd be here And it was like slow motion Standing there in my party dress In red lipstick With no one to impress And they're all laughing As I'm looking around the room But there was one thing missing And that was the moment I knew And the hours pass by Now I just wanna be alone But your close friends always seem to know When there's something really wrong So they follow me down the hall And there in the bathroom I try not to fall apart And the sinking feeling starts As I say hopelessly "He said he'd be here" And it was like slow motion Standing there in my party dress In red lipstick With no one to impress And they're all laughing And asking me about you But there was one thing missing And that was the moment I knew What do you say? When tears are streaming down your face In front of everyone you know And what do you do? When the one who means the most to you Is the one who didn't show? You should've been here And I would've been so happy And it was like slow motion Standing there in my party dress In red lipstick With no one to impress And they're all standing around me singing "Happy Birthday to you" But there was one thing missing And that was the moment I knew Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, I knew Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You called me later And said, "I'm sorry, I didn't make it" And I said, "I'm sorry too" And that was the moment I knew

Menurutmu berapa lama lagi kau kan mencintaiku? Menurutmu apa yang bisa terjadi dalam sewindu Bukan apa hanya bersiap tak ada yang tahu Aku takut Tak pernah ada yang lama menungguku sejak dulu Yang terjadi sebelumnya semua orang takut padaku Memang tidak mudah mencintai diri ini Namun aku berjanji akan mereda seperti semestinya Menurutmu apa benar saat ini kau masih mencintaiku? Menurutmu apa yang bisa dicinta dari diriku? Bukan apa hanya bersiap tak ada yang tahu Aku takut Tak pernah ada yang lama menungguku sejak dulu Yang terjadi sebelumnya semua orang takut padaku Panggil aku perempuan gila Hantu berkepala keji membunuh kasihnya Penuh ganggu di dalam jiwanya Sambil penuh cinta diam-diam berusaha Selalu tahu akan ditinggalkan Namun demi Tuhan Aku berusaha Memang tidak mudah mencintai diri ini Namun aku berjanji akan mereda seperti semestinya Memang tidak mudah mencintai diri ini Namun aku berjanji akan mereda seperti semestinya

Say you're there when I feel helpless If that's true, why don't you help me? It's my fault, I know I'm selfish Stand alone, my soul is jealous It wants love, but I reject it Trade my joy for my protection Grab my hand, I'm drowning I feel my heart pounding Why haven't you found me yet? I hold you so proudly Traumas, they surround me I wish you'd just love me back Say you're here, but I don't feel it Give me peace, but then you steal it Watch them laugh at all my secrets Scream and yell, but I feel speechless Ask for help, you call it weakness Lied and promised me my freedom Grab my hand, I'm drowning I feel my heart pounding Why haven't you found me yet? I hold you so proudly Traumas, they surround me I wish you'd just love me back Grab my hand, I'm drowning I feel my heart pounding Why haven't you found me yet?

I've been so busy, ignoring, and hiding About what my heart actually say Stay awake while I'm drowning on my thoughts Sometimes a happiness is just a happiness I've never been enjoyin' my serenity Even if I've got a lot of company That makes me happy Soul try to figure it out From where I've been escapin' Running to end all the sin Get away from the pressure Wondering to get a love that is so pure Gotta have to always make sure That I'm not just somebody's pleasure I always pretending and lying Like I'm used to feel empty 'Cause all I got is unhappy Happiness, can't I get happiness? I've never been enjoyin' my serenity Even if I've got a lot of company That makes me happy Soul try to figure it out From where I've been escapin' Running to end all the sin Get away from the pressure Wondering to get a love that is so pure Gotta have to always make sure That I'm not just somebody's pleasure, oh-ho-oo It was in a blink of an eye Find a way how to say goodbye I've got to take me away From all sadness Stitch all my wounds, confess all the sins And took all my insecure When will I got the love that is so pure? Gotta have to always make sure That I'm not just somebody's pleasure Gotta have Gotta have to always make sure That I'm not just somebody's pleasure

I can't lie, it feels nice that you're calling You sound sad and alone, and you're stalling And for once, I don't care about what you want As long as we keep talking (as long as we're talking) I mean, you gotta admit the history's kind of unmatched Asian Calvinism, we made it out of that Well, whether we're free of will or predestined Clearly, I've not learned my lesson even now Hope He doesn't strike me down (strike me down) The Goo Goo Dolls are dead to me The way you should be too But you bring them up Along with how much I fucking miss you Maybe I'm just not better than this, I haven't tried Maybe life's less romantic when I don't wanna die You'd think I'd be a fast learner But guess I won't ever mind crisping up on your backburner Backburner Your backburner Your backburner Your backburner It's pathetic, but at least you are, too I don't know what to do I don't like anyone except sometimes you And now you're sounding like a hurt puppy You look ugly when you cry But I'm the one you think to call How do you feel lucky and appalled at the same time?

Good Maybe I'm just not better than this, I haven't tried 'Cause maybe you'll finally choose me after you've had more time I thought I was a fast learner But guess I won't ever mind, guess I won't ever mind Maybe I blame my mother bleeding into my stride Maybe it was my father and his wandering eyes (It's their fault that) I'll always be in your corner 'Cause I don't feel alive 'til I'm burnin' on your backburner, oh-oh (Backburner, your backburner) And I know that it's sad that I settle for the backburner, oh-oh (your backburner) (Your backburner, your backburner) Guess I won't ever mind crisping up on your backburner, oh-oh (your backburner) (Backburner, your backburner) As long as you still think of me, oh, oh-oh (backburner, backburner)

So you're on the prowl wondering whether She left already or not Leather jacket, collar popped like Cantonna Never knowing when to stop Sunglasses indoors, par for the course Lights in the floors and sweat on the walls Cages and poles Call off the search for your soul Or put it on hold again She's having a sly indoor smoke And she calls the folks who run this, her oldest friends Sipping a drink and laughing at imaginary jokes As all the signals are sent, her eyes invite you to approach And it seems as though those lumps in your throat That you just swallowed have got you going Come on, come on, come on Come on, come on, come on Number one party anthem She's a certified mind blower Knowing full well that I don't May suggest there's somewhere from which I might know her Just to get the ball to roll Drunken monologues, confused because It's not like I'm falling in love, I just want ya To do me no good And you look like you could Come on, come on, come on Come on, come on, come on Number one party anthem Come on, come on, come on Before the moment's gone Number one party anthem, yeah, yeah The look of love, the rush of blood The "She's with me"'s, the Gallic shrug The shutterbugs, the Camera Plus The black & white and the color dodge The good time girls, the cubicles The house of fun, the number one Party anthem, oh Come on, come on, come on Come on, come on, come on Come on, come on, come on Come on, come on, come on Before the moment's gone Number one party anthem Number one party anthem Number one party anthem Yeah, yeah

Just one more tear to cry, one teardrop from my eye You better save it for The middle of the night when things aren't black and white Enter, Troubadour "Remember 24?" And when I'm back in Chicago, I feel it Another version of me, I was in it I wave goodbye to the end of beginning This song has started now, and you're just finding out Now isn't that a laugh? A major sacrifice, but clueless at the time Enter, Caroline "Just trust me, you'll be fine" And when I'm back in Chicago, I feel it Another version of me, I was in it I wave goodbye to the end of beginning (Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye) You take the man out of the city, not the city out the man You take the man out of the city, not the city out the man You take the man out of the city, not the city out the man You take the man out of the- And when I'm back in Chicago, I feel it Another version of me, I was in it Oh, I wave goodbye to the end of beginning (Goodbye, goodbye)

Waiting to time, will I be better or fall? Play a lovely melody or nothing at all Seeking my pride when there else nothing to hide Let me just waking up together with you Thinking of fantasy, there's no more privacy Faking a smile, there is no reason to cry It's breaking my mind to see the truth is a lie Let me just waking up together with you There's no logic in life But Darling, love is understandable Tell me the price then I'll try to compromise Power and politics leads time to collapse It's breaking my heart to hear the truth is a lie Let me just waking up together with you There's no logic in life But Darling, love is understandable I'm not a prodigy this within agony The plans in my hand I have to risk it all It's hurting my eye to see what's going on Let me just waking up together with you Waking up tomorrow with you Waking up together with you

His laugh you'd die for, his laugh you'd die for The kind that colors the sky Heart intangible, slips away faster than dandelion fluff in the sunlight And he's got swirls of passion in his eyes Uncoverin' the dreams, he dreams at night As much and hard as he tries to hide I can see right through, see right through His voice you'd melt for, he says my name like I'd fade away somehow if he's too loud What I would give for me to get my feet Back on the ground, head off the clouds I laugh at how we're polar opposites I read him like a book, and he's a clueless little kid Doesn't know that I'd stop time and space Just to make him smile, make him smile Oh, why can't we for once Say what we want, say what we feel? Oh, why can't you for once Disregard the world, and run to what you know is real? Take a chance with me, take a chance with me Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh His kiss you'd kill for, just one and you're done for Electricity surgin' in the air He drives me crazy, it's so beyond me How he'd look me dead in the eye and stay unaware That I'm hopelessly captivated By a boy who thinks love's overrated How did I get myself in this arrangement? It baffles me, too, baffles me, too Oh, why can't we for once Say what we want, say what we feel? Oh, why can't you for once Disregard the world, and run to what you know is real? In the end we only regret the chances we didn't take I'll be your safety net, so why not raise the stakes? And I can hear your heart from across the room Pulsin' through my veins, I know you need this too Lie to me all you please, I can see right through See right through Oh, why can't we for once Say what we want, say what we feel? Oh, why can't you for once Disregard the world, and run to what you know is real? Oh, why can't we for once Say what we want, say what we feel? Oh, why can't you for once Disregard the world, and run to what you know is real? Take a chance with me, take a chance with me Ooh-ah, oh-oh, oh
