Get Some Air

Get Some Air
1. Get Some Air



Get Some Air
(chorus)
I'll step out of there and get some air
you ain't got time to spare
and I'll get out of your slick-backed hair
and find my freedom there
where I'm so lonely, lonely, lonely
and you're so lonely, lonely, lonely
I'll step out of there and get some air
because you ain't got time to spare
(end chorus)

(verse 1)
I just had to step away from it all
so tomorrow I could still stand tall
people, places, and situations wore me down
to the point that I was almost gone and not around
but time healed wounds and left scars
I'm glad it's just a reminder now, break out the cigars
a man that used to make the world go boom
now can only just be fine entering a room
it's like the whole picture could only be seen sideways
and when it finally became clear crossways
everything got worse again
until you finally got that redeeming win
but we're getting stronger, only up from here
finally found it, I'm in the clear

(chorus)
I'll step out of there and get some air
you ain't got time to spare
and I'll get out of your slick-backed hair
and find my freedom there
where I'm so lonely, lonely, lonely
and you're so lonely, lonely, lonely
I'll step out of there and get some air
because you ain't got time to spare
(end chorus)

(verse 2)
what's it like to find love after a long time?
I don't know but I imagine it's something prime
but not like the plot of a TV drama
it takes longer than a half-hour episode to undo trauma
you just get so tired and broken
and seeing life as it is isn't workin'
so you wake up one day and finally find the change
spray a little cleaner on it and wipe away the hurt
and even if these wins turn back into dirt
you know something good can come when you finally divert
you did it, but stay alert
break away and find a way, break away and find a way
to become a champion
break away and find a way, break away and find a way
some day you won't easily come undone

(chorus)
I'll step out of there and get some air
you ain't got time to spare
and I'll get out of your slick-backed hair
and find my freedom there
where I'm so lonely, lonely, lonely
and you're so lonely, lonely, lonely
I'll step out of there and get some air
because you ain't got time to spare
(end chorus)

Unrequited Finally

Unrequited Finally 1. Unrequited Finally Unrequited Finally (verse 1) you and I together made a solemn unspoken oath a secret never told is the very one best kept I shy away when our eyes suddenly meet like I've got a secret identity that I've just got to keep I long to get out of here and feel the spring air at night I can dream only of your long hair we snuck off when no one was looking now you act like you don't know me what is all of this? (chorus) I like that, but why do I like that? my first fantasy and my last taste of love my feelings awakened and fell from above my heart burst from happiness like an attack I like that, but why do I like that? you moved on, but I'm still stuck just chop it up to being romantically sick this is what's called unrequited love finally (end chorus) (verse 2) the lips you kissed are forever sealed shut but they pinned me against the tiled bathroom wall your friends raised eyebrows and asked questions you said not to worry because ...

Mystery Butterfly

Mystery Butterfly 1. Mystery Butterfly Mystery Butterfly (verse 1) open your shiny eyes in the silent night I swooped down into the mystery sneaking in alleyways without any sound of footsteps crouching my back in seductive black cat pose the moonlight carries a shadow on its back of my silhouette "come here" it smiles as it beckons to me it's tempting a contour of desire squirms in the sleepless city it wanders in the guise of a guardian angel to me it holds piece of love without a place to go in its arm as if they're precious treasures as you fall to sleep blissfully are you somewhere having a good dream ignorantly being happy as anyone would want the starry sky kisses you it's time for good children to go to bed to sleep (chorus) don't look at me, don't catch me don't try to be what's become of me I'm a butterfly who got lost in the dark freely singing with monochrome wings no one can see I'm hiding away in your heavy heart (end chorus) ...
