Gone down, down, down to the liquor store today
I was falling in love, had to drink it away
Cause you won’t believe your ears when I tell you
Won’t believe your eyes, you won’t believe your hands
And you won’t believe your ears when I tell you
And we’re fighting it out in the dead of winter
fighting it out in the dead of winter
Now we’re fighting it out in the dead of winter
fighting it out in the dead of winter
Now it crying it out on the floor today, I was fighting for my right
To feel this way
The girls don’t come around no more
Cause they don’t believe in you, and they don’t believe in me
And they don’t believe we were meant to be
And we’re fighting it out in the dead of winter
fighting it out in the dead of winter
Now we’re fighting it out in the dead of winter
fighting it out in the dead of winter

Take full blame for all my failures
I know I’ve been a bit impulsive
May seem a lot to swallow, but I’ve given all I’ve got to give
The life I want to live, it turned me down
Don’t think I’m accepting it. Makes me want it more
What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger
When I fail it feeds a hunger
To be the best that I can be so help me God
I’ve been unhappy and unable to put the milk upon the table
But in the end, yes in the end I’ll shine again
You say I’m in denial
And that I’m losing ground
Someday you’ll understand me
I know you’ll come around
You are imprisoned in your pain filled mind
If you’d been listening, you’d know that I’ll be fine
What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger
When I fail it feeds a hunger
To be the best that I can be so help me God
I’ve been unhappy and unable to put the milk upon the table
But in the end, yes in the end I’ll shine again
I’ve been a loser and a winner, a beggar and a sinner
And along the way I know I’ve been a fool
I’ve done some things that I ain’t proud of
I’ve hurt the people I love
But in the end, yes in the end I’ll shine again

We’ve been out so long
We don’t remember the sun
We’re not on our best behavior
There’s too much time to kill
And I can’t swim
With this crawling in my skin
Keeping our heads out of water’s
Not as easy as it sounds
But I’m not about the let you drown
No I’m not about the let you drown
In the night we won
The headless and heartless are down
Try not to wake them it’s our turn
We don’t appeal to some
And I can’t swim
With this crawling in my skin
Keeping our heads out of water’s
Not as easy as it sounds
But I’m not about the let you drown
No I’m not about the let you drown

You're black on black
I've never been able to read you yet
serve the reprimand for what you think I understand
Black on Black
Black on Black
Heart to heart
did you ever think you'd fall apart?
as good as bad has been you made the bed you're lying in
Heart to heart
Heart to heart
Rub the lamp and who knows who will appear
with three more wishes for you
If I were you I'd wish for the saving of your soul
And it all came rushing back in
as though I never came to terms with it back then
you walk on water in your own mind
oh go on pretend I'm fine
go on pretend I'm fine
Rub the lamp and who knows who will appear
with three more wishes for you
If I were you I'd wish for the saving of your soul

We built ourselves a battleship and shot for the stars
And brought along civilians so they’d feel important
But the funny thing is the only ones who made it were the ones who swam for shore
And we fought a hundred battles as we bled from our wounds
Feeling overly protective as we killed off our own
And ironically the only ones who died were the ones who stayed aboard
Where the sun, where the sun, where the sun, where the sun is blue
Where the sun, where the sun, where the sun, where the sun is blue
And we built ourselves a battleship
Willing to go under second game
And cry ourselves to sleep at night alone and estranged
Can this be fixed
Feels like the same old shit
I’ve been there before
In silence, no one’s around, and we break, we break, we break, we’re all burned out
Made it seem so fun, the ones who came before
Where the sun, where the sun, where the sun, where the sun is blue
Where the sun, where the sun, where the sun, where the sun is blue
And we built ourselves a battleship
Maybe we’ll win this war
And we built ourselves a battleship
Maybe we’ll win this war
They say stars fall, they say stars fall, they say stars fall, can we make it stop
they say stars fall, can we make it stop
Can we make it stop
Someone give me hope

Am I amazing or a parasite wasting your humor
I think I love but it may be just to pass the time
I’m sorry but I don’t know if I love my self
How can I love you when I’m grasping at these straws
So call out the hounds cause I’ve lost another friend
And if you find him, I’ll let him go again
Oh, I’ve lost another friend, I’ve lost another friend, I’ve lost another friend
I tried hiding but I always end up in the crowd
Cover up my mouth but always end up shouting loud
You listened and now you want to find a future
But it’s a little blurry when I’m grasping at these straws
Grasping at these straws
So call out the hounds cause I’ve lost another friend
And if you find him, I’ll let him go again
Oh, I’ve lost another friend, I’ve lost another friend, I’ve lost another friend
I’ve lost another friend, I’ve lost another friend, I’ve lost another friend
You were amazing and I knew that I found a friend
Now I’m the devil cause I couldn’t keep desire in
Shame on you for being so vulnerable
It’s a little blurry when you’re grasping at these straws
You’re grasping at these straws
So call out the hounds cause I’ve lost another friend
And if you find him, I’ll let him go again
Oh, I’ve lost another friend, I’ve lost another friend, I’ve lost another friend
Oh, I’ve lost another friend, I’ve lost another friend, I’ve lost another friend

Thicky White - Light On

So this is what it feels like when a load has been lifted
This is what it feels like when the light is on
So leave the light on
Leave the light on, honey
Cause I feel better with the light on
So this is what it feels like when the shame is washed away
This is what it feels like when you look at me and say
Leave the light on
Leave the light on honey
I like it better with the light on
For so long, I lay blinded by the darkness
But now I’ve grown and it’s all coming into focus
So this is what it feels like when a load has been lifted
This is what it feels like when the light is on
Leave the light on
Leave the light on, honey
You'll like me better with the light on
Cause I am better when the light is on
Oh yeah, Leave the light on
I feel better with the light on
For so long...
For so long...
For so long...
For so long...

In this box of redundancy I run right through the walls
Somehow maintaining my imperfection through it all
Tell me the truth, have you ever known me to learn from my mistakes?
Oh it's just a classic case
Of the blind leading the blind
So don't you feel bad for me
Somehow you taught the blind to see
Oh, no no don't you feel sad for me
Though I sometimes fall to fury 1-2-3-4
Oh and everyone's sick of the story that paints you in a pen
Blaming you over and over an over and over again
I believe I have muddied the waters so clear and so concise
Hoping no one could muster the courage
To stand up and think twice
So don't you feel bad for me
Somehow you taught the blind to see
Oh, no no don't you feel sad for me
Though I sometimes fall to fury 1-2-3-4
If I seem sentimental I may have been drowning it all in a drink
I come off as a come on but I guarantee that it's not what you think
Ask, I'll own up, I know I'm a sinner not a saint
Getting down like the devil
Oh cause sometimes hell can't wait
So don't you feel bad for me
Somehow you taught the blind to see
Oh, no no no no don't you feel sad for me
Even though I fall to fury 1-2-3-4

Sometimes, things don’t go well
Sometimes, feel like hell
Why now don’t you forget my name, because I’m
Oh, oh, falling
Oh, oh, falling
Oh, oh, falling
Oh, oh, falling down down down
I’m trying now,
Harder than I ever have before
I’m green, you’re blue
What’s a poor girl got to do, but I’m
Oh, trying
Oh, trying
Oh, trying
Oh, I’m trying now
I’m picking up where I
Never should have left off anyhow
I’m trying harder than I ever have
I’m gaining ground
I’m seeing more of the world
I’m being everybody’s
little girl
Oh coming
Oh coming
Oh coming
I am coming round, round round
Oh, trying
Oh, trying
Oh, trying
Oh, I’m trying now
