(1st Verse)
Put me back
Don’t leave me high and dry upon your shelf
I wanna be home with the forests and fields
I’m alone
I’m sick of seeing the sun through the glass
Take me out
So I can feel it on my skin again
(Chorus)
I just to be free again I don’t want to be a houseplant
I just to be free again no one wants to be a houseplant
(2nd Verse)
I can't move
You’ve got me locked safe in doors
Only yours, I haven’t seen a friend in years
And how are they?
Do they struggle the same as me
to some degree?
Do they yearn for the great outdoors?
(Outro)
Release me!

(1st Verse)
I don't care much for your vanity
But it sure does make you look fine
I tripped and fell from reality
And girl it feels divine
(Pre-chorus)
Cause you got some power in the way you move baby
Some supernatural seductions got a hold on me
Just say the word and I'll do anything you want me to
Just pull them strings and I'll do it for you
(Chorus)
I can't help it can't you see
When you're moving next to me
Waves pull rock into the sea
You bring me down to my knees
(2nd Verse)
I don't believe the things you're telling me
And I know you've got your other guys
All that fake news that you've been telling
I would of happily taken it all for free
I not need you to just be mine

Hitchhiker

|
(1st Verse)
I don't know what you will want from this
It's been several year since we shared our first kiss
Time after time it's always you I miss
I wish that I could read the mind behind the messages
(Chorus)
And if you said "no"
I would understand
It doesn't seem polite for me to come and barge into your plans
And I don't think that I could ever leave you behind
Forever a hitchhiker in my mind
(2nd Verse)
Can I ask who ask who you see these days darling?
Cause I'm biding time hoping that you'll be free soon
But then again I could be holding out for nothing
If you found in him that special love I had with you

Gotta keep you close baby, gotta keep you close baby
Gotta keep you close keeping your body close to mine
(1st Verse)
I'm not working so much
I get a little bit nervous sometimes
And I'm needing your touch
just want you to tell me your mine
(Pre-chorus)
I'm gonna write a little message to your heart
(Gotta keep you close keeping your body close to mine)
I'm gonna write a little message to your heart
(Tell what I wanna say baby)
(Chorus)
All I want is your loving
Girl I need your touch
All I want is to be with you
When I wake up
(2nd Verse)
Stop! And take your time
I won't give up
Till I've got you by my side
And I won't wait a minute
Taking all my days to win it
Win your love
I'm gonna win your love
(Bridge)
Waking up next to you is gonna be so good my baby
You've got me dreaming that I'm sleeping next to you
Girl I need your loving I need your touch
Girl I need your loving I need your touch baby baby

Fantasy

|
(1st Verse)
Since you went away I'm a ruin
I can not think of anyone else but you (no one else but you)
And I tried, I tried to walk away
But you're still right there in the corner of my mind
(I'm starting to think that I will never let you go)
You were no good for me
I knew that with a certainty
(But something about you beat the others, I'm talking bout the way you move me)
But aren't we drawn to the dark to unearth what we can't see
Like you being with me
(Chorus)
Do you want to be my fantasy?
Step into my dreams tonight
Know that you're getting the best of me
Step into my dreams tonight
(2nd Verse)
It's so hard to believe
That you're not here with me
You were always better in my dreams
Where the pain was out of sight (I keep it in the back of my mind)
But know I think I'd take the trauma cause nothing else feels right
Now you're not here with me
(Chorus)
Do you want to be my fantasy?
Step into my dreams tonight
Know that you're getting the best of me
Step into my dreams tonight
You were always better in my dreams you were my perfect fantasy
No pain, no trauma in my dreams, you just my foolish fantasy

You take me in your open mouth
I'll chew you up I'll spit you out
You chew me up
Then you spit me out

Spit

(1st Verse)
I want to taste the place that you hide from me
In black and white, a perfect fantasy
You shut the door now I can’t now more or less blind
wish you could take my love in the flesh of some other kind
(Pre-Chorus 1)
Take a bite in place of a nibble
So I know that your alittle bit animal
Sweat upon your face is my tipple
taste it on my tongue and I want it all
So while you’re here I’ll have you now
I’ll chew you up I’ll spit you out
(2nd Verse)
A body bends, a feeling in my bones
I know tonight I don’t want to be alone
I reach the floor second door know you are more or less mine
We’ll go to hell tonight by tomorrow
I’ll be going fine
(2nd Pre-Chorus)
Do I eat through all the young and the beautiful?
Some are cozy but I find myself cynical
Am I searching for someone truly mythical?
Cause I get hungry in the night and I want them all
(Bridge)
well some boys want all the girls
while other boys want all the boys
I’m getting vaguer in my taste
just want someone to make some noise

Animal (Sometimes)

|
(1st Verse)
I never really liked you anyway... no
I don’t miss you I don’t want you
I still have pictures
They don’t hold much reverence... no
Sitting in a shoebox sitting with
your letters
Waiting for the bonfire
(2nd Verse)
It’s a sickness my little secret
It’s a sickness my little secret
I don’t know why I kept them anyway
A modern curiousity
of viewing things that I used to see
And I still see you sometimes
(Chorus)
And I hate myself everytime I think
of you
Cause I know it’s pure lush I am an
Animal sometimes

I See You

|
(Verse)
I'm not afraid of losing you
When I close my eyes in the dark of the night
I see you
Standing next to me
I feel you
Reaching out to me
(Chorus)
I see you
Standing next to me
I feel you
Reaching out to me

(1st Verse)
I don’t know where we stand no more
I feel the same do you still think of me at all?
I’ve spent some time anticipating the fall
It never came, nothing has changed, I still want you
Come sit with me and tell me what I should do
(2nd Verse)
Always peeking behind the curtains, you read my mind
In my journals, diaries, anything you could find
You told me you wanted a song back when you were mine
I caved in, I couldn’t say how I felt so soon
But since you left, I’m bereft, now this one’s for you
(Chorus)
I don’t want to be in love with you anymore
It’s been years but I can’t shut that door
I don’t want to be in love with you anymore
But if you still feel something would you let me know
If not, say so please, and I’ll learn to let you go

(Chorus)
You speak honestly, speak so softly
Your ear on my chest feels my heartbeat
(1st Verse)
As of late I have been trying to behave myself
I've been struggling taming the beast of burdening someone else
But your patience is a shining light on the path ahead
I just need a little more time to trust the things you've said
(Chorus)
You speak honestly, speak so softly
Your ear on my chest feels my heartbeat
(2nd Verse)
What do you see in me?
I must of been born blind
I rarely see things that I like
I don't mean to dismiss the way you feel about me
It's only my head it's playing tricks on me
(Bridge)
I wanna believe that everything about me you say is true
But thats at odds with my own self image its goes askew
Just give me more time I know my mind it'll come around soon
Till then I just listen to you
(Chorus)
You speak honestly, speak so softly
Your ear on my chest feels my heartbeat
