Oh tell me something that I don't know It ain't like you wear a halo But I never thought that you'd go so low As to sleep around just to send me out of control Now I'll admit I made a mistake I never meant to cause you heartache But you're the one that took the car You walked out, left home, took it too far You ain't perfect? I never thought you were That ain't what love is You didn't have to make me hurt I wasn't paying you attention And you were getting hypertension I was so busy with the bills That you didn't know if I loved you still But then you didn't say a word You didn't make yourself heard You went to stab me in the back Tryna get my love from a heart attack You ain't perfect? Whoever said you were? That ain't what love is You didn't have to make me hurt How was I supposed to doubt? If you weren't gon spit it out? What the hell did you expect? When you come home smelling like men's cologne, what the hell am I supposed to do next? I can't hear you if you don't speak You got a problem you tell me, there's a better way to tell me You're saying that you're not Perfect

Mary Davis 03:31
I had a dream that Mary Davis hid my heart inside a Soda can And then she went and drank it She kept it well and truthfully I didn't ever want to see it again Life would be So much happier with Just a few more People to love And this would be So much simpler with Just a few more People to love I woke up on one Thursday morning, went outside to find a Gift at the door It beat like a drum when I picked it up and shook it round to try and find what it had hidden in store I couldn't bear to break the seal, I knew what I would find I Couldn't return Love is a stubborn beast I couldn't break another's heart if I don't know exactly whose I've earned Life would be So much happier with Just a few more People to love And this would be So much simpler with Just a few more People to love From the moment that she left me I lived my life Like a zombie and I would be So much better with Just a few more People to love I found myself, feeling broken without her Wondering if I'll ever find another love Like hers I had a dream that Mary Davis hid my heart inside a Soda can And then she went and drank it When I woke up I couldn't breathe for all the need I had to see her again

Satellite 05:05
You've got gravity Naturally There's nothing I can do To keep from wanting you You've got gravity I can't blame you or myself We met I met you And then I tripped and fell I didn't mean for this My heart has betrayed me I wish we could go back to the way it was But that won't work because I don't want to be your satellite Just to watch you fall for the moon Helpless, I'm trapped in your sky Unable to keep from wanting you I'm trapped in your orbit It felt good at first But if I don't get out now I won't have the power Round and round we dance Hoping that you're gonna give me a new chance I know that the sky is endless But I can't ignore a feeling like this

Good Game 04:38
Good game, we played a Good game Nobody ever kept score I never asked for anything more Good game If you're not the winner Why do I feel like I've lost? This was sold to me, as happy ever after for free I gave you evrything, wouldn't you call that a cost? Good game, we played a Good game You filled my wall with your pictures I made space in my bed Now the chips in the paint aren't covered And evry night I'm alone inside my Head Good game, we played a Good game We used to walk through the part evry weekend Now the birds ask me where you are We used to stare at the sky for hours Now I can't name a single star How do I listen to our song Without dancing and the smell of your hair? How do I go to bed if you're not there? What will you do with our secrets babe? Try as I might, I can't throw them away Are we supposed to shake hands, like I never said I love you? Are we supposed to walk away, like you weren't the only life I knew? Good game, we played a Good game Nobody ever kept score I never asked for anything more Good game

Thunder 05:09
Broken down by the windowsill Watching the smoke from your cigarette Haven't paid your electric bill I touch your hair and it's soaking wet Wrapped up in the coat I left Pressing your back up against the wall I can see that look in your eyes But nothing drowns in alcohol You're keeping secrets Holding them close to your chest well I know you fear it But baby I'm doing my best Stop making me watch you stall How did you trip? Tell me that So many ways to fall I'm begging you please Fall into my arms I take your hands up into mine Just to watch you pull them back again I can see that look in your eyes But I can't help you if you hold it in You're saying it's none of my, it's none of my, concern You're saying the truth, is something that I still have to earn I say baby, you've gotta take a risk Oh how can I love you, if you won't even tell me the truth about this?

about

A relationship EP. After 2 years, we emerge from hibernation. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid answered the question, "what if freshmen in high school that liked Led Zeppelin, Jack White, and Queens of the Stone Age had college music degrees?" Heartattack is half the answer to the question, "what now?"
