Miles Away.





VERSE 1
I fall in love with you
When we're together
But when I am alone
It's like you're gone forever

I can not stop a spark
From igniting this fire
But when you're away from me
I'm walking on wire

CHORUS
All I ask is for your voice
When I am a thousand miles away
I'm not asking much of you
I know I can't see your face today

But when I'm gone
You're a thousand miles away

VERSE 2
You said you wanted
Everything to do with me
But when I'm not near
Your heart can't even see

Lonely when you won't call
I'm not a toy on a shelf
When you ignore me like you do
I have to fight a battle with myself

CHORUS

All I ask is for your voice
When I am a thousand miles away
I'm not asking much of you
I know I can't see your face today

But when I'm gone
You're a thousand miles away


VERSE 3
I'm calling you
On the phone inside your mind
Leave a message at the tone
You're something I can't seem to find

Over emotional and you're carefree 
I bend and break so easily
Maybe you have gone too far
But we both live in jealousy

BRIDGE
...and I can't live without you near me

CHORUS

All I ask is for your voice
When I am a thousand miles away
I'm not asking much of you
I know I can't see your face today

But when I'm gone
You're a thousand miles away


Slaughterhouse Love.



VERSE 1
I'm not feeling so sure
of myself anymore 
Sometimes when you come around
I lock my front door

You gave me butterflies
Now they've flown away
You don't give me shelter
From the storm that comes each day

CHORUS
And they say

Love is not eternal
Beauty will never last
I'm lying in your blood
Just a vision of your past

Love is not eternal
Beauty will never last
I'm lying in your blood
Just a vision of your past

VERSE 2
Come back to me tonight
Like a lucid, crystal dream
I'm haunted by your presence
The ghost who makes me scream

Lock all the trouble away
And lay down on my chest
You left too soon to tell
My love is nothing but a test

CHORUS
And they say

Love is not eternal
Beauty will never last
I'm lying in your blood
Just a vision of your past

Love is not eternal
Beauty will never last
I'm lying in your blood
Just a vision of your past

VERSE 3
Will you try to lay low
Baby try to realize
My cryptic love investment
Is written across your eyes

It's a cold, dark world
When you act like who you're not
And when I inject you slowly
You'll be immune to what you forgot

BRIDGE
So lie down on the bed
Lay out your worries
rest your head

CHORUS
And they say

Love is not eternal
Beauty will never last
I'm lying in your blood
Just a vision of your past

Love is not eternal
Beauty will never last
I'm lying in your blood
Just a vision of your past
