ABOUT U
SO SPECIAL There’s a few bad things I’ve done That nobody made me do Most just to get myself off And the rest to get over you Meant the things you said Turns out I had no idea You’d ever tell me we were done Or what that would feel like to hear
Now I know I’m not so special Cause I’m all dressed up And you think that I’m beautiful But it’s not enough Now I know I’m not so special Cause I’m all dressed up And you think that I’m beautiful But it’s not enough
Guess I’m gonna find another ride Guess I’ll see you in another life Guess I’m gonna tell one more lie I’m surprised you don’t wanna stay by my side I think about the time And I went down on you in the gallery And I was always out of line But I thought you were right there with me Now I know I’m not so special Cause you’re all dressed up And I think you’re so beautiful But I’m not your love
Guess I’m gonna find another ride Guess I’ll see you in another life Guess I’m gonna tell one more lie I’m surprised you don’t wanna stay by my side Guess I’m gonna find another ride Guess I’ll see you in another life Guess I’m gonna tell one more lie I’m surprised you don’t wanna stay by my side
LOUDSPEAKER What you want from me Is all of my time wasted on you Trying to teach me a lesson Well baby I learned one thing from you You can try to be my hell, to be my beating
But every time I love myself, it hurts your feelings What you’ve done to me Well I’ve seen many a friend be silenced Thinking nobody would believe them Well baby you’ve got another thing coming You can try to make me stop, call it delusion But every time I don’t shut up, it’s revolution
So if I feel real good tonight I’m gonna put it high on the loudspeaker And if I feel like crying, I won’t hide it I am a loudspeaker I am a loudspeaker
I am a loudspeaker I don’t know where the blame lies But you better believe I’m not gonna carry it all
I don’t know where the shame dies But it’s helping me to scream this is not my fault
I KNOW A PLACE I knew Right When you now It’s like old me you don’t wanna go you’re carrying all the weight of home tonight your past And you tried to I see all your bruises, just shrug it off when I yellow, dark blue, and black asked you why But baby a bruise is, only your body, Somebody hurt you trying to keep you intact Somebody hurt you So right now But you’re here by my side I think we should go get drunk on cheap wine And I knew I think we should hop on the purple line Cause I can recall when I was the one Cause maybe our purpose is to never give up when in your seat we’re on the right track I still got the scars and they occasionally bleed Right Cause somebody hurt me now And I can tell Somebody hurt me It’s like you’re carrying When you get nervous But I’m staying alive all the weight of your past You think being yourself I see all your bruises, yellow, dark Means being unworthy And I can tell blue, and black And it’s hard to love When you get nervous But baby a bruise is, only your body, trying to keep you intact With a heart that’s hurting You think being yourself So right now But if you want to go out dancing Means being unworthy I think we should go get drunk on cheap wine And it’s hard to love I think we should hop on the purple line They will try to make you unhappy With a heart that’s hurting Cause maybe our purpose is to But if you want to go out dancing Don’t let them never give up when we’re on the right track They will try to tell you you’re not free Cause I know (ooh) I know a place (ooh) Don’t listen I know a place we can run (yeah) I, I know a place where you don’t need protection I know a place we can go (yeah) Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon Even if it’s only in my imagination Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon Lay down their weapon Lay down their weapon I, I know a place we can go Don’t you be afraid of love and affection Where everyone gonna lay down their weapon Just give me trust and watch what’ll happen Just lay down your weapon
WINTERBREAK
You say I’d best be going cause it’s getting late And I say Why don’t I walk you home cause it’s on the way But the last time That we made love, you left in tears So this time You’re wondering how to leave it here And I haven’t seen you since last winter break And I know that I broke your heart But always such a smart one, always so intelligent
You must know that I took it hard Oh, baby I think we both know This is the love that we won’t get right Still if you said that you wanted I know I’ll always have one more try Oh, baby, I think we both know This is the love that we won’t get right Still if you said that you wanted
I know I’ll always have one more try
You pull That face like, ‘here we go again’ So I pull
A flask out the back of my jeans And then you take a pull And in my mind we’re in my bed And I’m pulling Your sweater up over your head And I haven’t seen you since last winter break
And I know that you hate how that went But always such a smart one, always so intelligent You must know what’s happening Oh, baby I think we both know
This is the love that we won’t get right Still if you said that you wanted I know I’ll always have one more try Oh, baby, I think we both know This is the love that we won’t get right Still if you said that you wanted I know I’ll always have one more try
Oh it’s magnetic, isn’t it? The sense of something underneath the surface When you’re laying on thin ice Just a little bit masochistic A tentative ellipses The parting of your lips and the ache in your eyes But I think I’m gonna kiss you All despite What we both know This is the love that we won’t get right Still if you said that you wanted I know I’ll always have one more try Oh, baby, I think we both know This is the love that we won’t get right Still if you said that you wanted
I know I’ll always have one more try

MUNA
AROU N D U
I would swear I’d never plan again But I can see the irony I’m humbled by the passing of time I am brought down onto my knees An Arizona half and half A half a pack of cigarettes A vacant lot, my tangled thoughts Suburbia give me my God again All senses say, nothing has changed
The soft lines from the streetlights fall the same on my face But something massive happened here
I can feel it in the atmosphere Something false that once was true I no longer revolve around you
I no longer revolve around you And the house still stands where it was built I know ‘cause I drove by tonight A candle in the bedroom Where I once performed a holy rite And I did stop to hang my head Just for a moment at the light ‘Cause now the altar is a bed
And now you’re just a friend that once was mine
Oh civilian, idling along How can you understand that there’s a whole world But something massive happened here Can you feel it in the atmosphere? Something false that once was true I no longer revolve around you I no longer revolve around you How can I try to be civilized When inside there is a shift in paradigm And everything we built, we built on our love Everything spinning on one assumption How can I try to say sorry When my words don’t carry the same gravity And everything I say, I say it knowing Full well you still don’t want to believe Something massive happened here But you can feel it in the atmosphere
Something false that once was true I no longer revolve around you
PROMISE
I told a lot of lies And called it a compromise To keep you in your seat I was so afraid to lose But the things that I did to you You would never do to me Why do I do it Why do I do it You wanna Hold my hand I make a fist A false promise And even if you said you would forgive me I don’t know if I could ever say I’m sorry I don’t know if I— (You said you would) I don’t know if I can I don’t know if I— (You said you would) I don’t know if I can
So I look at you now Bruised and broken down By what you thought was love You tell me you want to stay & you wanna watch me change But I’m scared so I tell you to fuck off
Why do I Why do I do it Why do I do it You wanna Hold my hand I make a fist A false promise And even if you said you would forgive me I don’t know if I could ever say I’m sorry I don’t know if I— (You said you would) I don’t know if I can I don’t know if I— (You said you would) I don’t know if I can Mean hearted girls will kill their loves to hurt themselves They can’t believe that they deserve anything else And even if you said you know that I’m sorry I don’t know if I could ever forgive me I don’t know if I— (You said you would) I don’t know if I can I don’t know if I— (You said you would) I don’t know if I can I told a lot of lies And called it a compromise To keep you (You said you would)
