Ash to ash Dust to dust We're in the aftermath of what you've done You pulled me down You watched me burn Used my strength Got your turn You let me fight, you had me crawl But in the end you got it all Do you even know, where the f&*% you would be If it wasn't for me? I lit myself on fire to keep you warm But you made it out safe so what was the harm? Now I'm stuck in the Quicksand that is your love I'm going down I'm going down, down, down You took my light You took my spark When you dragged me down into your dark But that's what you do, you take and you take And you don't care who you break You were thief, you were a liar You took my soul and set it on fire How could you? I gave you everything? I lit myself on fire to keep you warm But you made it out safe so what was the harm? Now I'm stuck in the Quicksand that is your love I'm going down I'm going down I'm going down, I'm going down, I'm going down, I'm going down I lit myself on fire to keep you warm Now I'm walking away you won't do no more harm You're stuck in the Quicksand that is your love You're going down You're going down Down

Iconic 02:50
She gives me that feeling that I can't explain She seems to float on air And when I'm feeling down, feeling low You know she's always there Much more than meets the eye She touches me deep inside That girl I wanna be She sets my soul free She's iconic (snatched tight, looks right) Iconic (legendary every way) She's Iconic She's an icon She's a Queen She's the one I've been looking for She's the one I love She's the one that won't be ignored She's so far above Much more than meets the eye She touches me deep inside That girl I wanna be She sets my soul free She's iconic (snatched tight, looks right) Iconic (legendary every way) She's Iconic She's an icon She's a Queen And I don't know how she does it every time But there's no one in the world quite like this Queen of mine She's so iconic She's iconic (snatched tight, looks right) Iconic (legendary every way) She's Iconic She's an icon She's a Queen

Wasted 04:04
Touch my lips I feel you burn Hard but slow Smooth When will I ever learn? It's immediate I can taste it, taste it, taste you I'm so sad but with you I shine Talk slow, drink fast Do anything to make this last I need you Please stay We're almost there I feel no pain I can't control what you do it me Cause you've got a hold deep inside I'm losing it all Because of what you do I'm wasted on you Wasted Burnt velvet, whatever the cost I'm yours I have no choice (I have no choice) I'm lit, laced, intoxicated, can't escape it Lately I've been seeing double, full withdrawal Cold and shaking Black out I want you near me I can't seem to break free I'm here again, with you I've got nothing left But we'll make it through I can't control what you do it me Cause you've got a hold deep inside I'm losing it all Because of what you do I'm wasted on you Wasted, wasted, wasted on you Wasted on you I can't control what you do it me Cause you've got a hold deep inside I'm losing it all Because of what you do I'm wasted on you

Will I make it out alive? Will I make it out alive? Will I make it out alive? Will I make it out alive? I am the monster I am the cure I'm every dream scattered on the floor I am a fighter I'm on the ropes I'm holding onto my last hope and dream I'm fighting an Invisible War Longing for the day that I won't feel this no more Lost futures all that I can see Staring back at me with no empathy Losing my days, losing my mind Losing my mind but I'm not dying I'm fighting an Invisible War Longing for the day that I won't feel this no more Losing my days, losing my mind Losing my mind but I'm dying ... oh no ... I am the monster I am the cure Through the battle I can win the war I might be broken, I might be gold I'm holding onto my last hope and dream I'm fighting an Invisible War Longing for the day that I won't feel this no more Lost futures all that I can see Staring back at me with no empathy Losing my days, losing my mind Losing my mind but I'm not dying I'm fighting an Invisible War Longing for the day that I won't feel this no more Losing my days, losing my mind Losing my mind but I'm dying So afraid of dying that I just keep living Danger to myself, it's so unforgiving Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide Will I make it out alive? So afraid of dying that I just keep living Danger to myself, it's so unforgiving Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide Will I make it out alive? I'm fighting an invisible war longing for the day that I won't feel this no more ... Losing my days, losing my mind Losing my mind but I'm dying I'm fighting an Invisible War Longing for the day that I won't feel this no more Losing my days, losing my mind Losing my mind but I'm dying Will I make it out alive? Will I make it out alive? Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide I'm not dying

The Light 04:12
There's no such thing as right time Holding your breathe about it never makes it better (come on) You belong in the sunshine The magic's in you'd if you only let it take control You feel the heat It's in you now Let go of all your hang ups Rhythms got you now Just close your eyes and free your mind I wish you would leave all your worries behind Cause baby girl you are the light You know you shine so bright (you know you shine so bright) You look so fine tonight Baby girl you are the light And everywhere we go tonight You know you shine so bright (you know you shine so bright) It's you and me tonight Baby girl you are the light No use in fighting what's inside you Sometimes the world is cold and makes you feel you don't belong You've gotta leave that in the rear view Cause there's no looking back Life is what you make it (come on) You feel the heat It's in you now Let go of all your hang ups Rhythms got you now Just close your eyes and free your mind I wish you would leave all your worries behind Cause baby girl you are the light You know you shine so bright (you know you shine so bright) You look so fine tonight Baby girl you are the light And everywhere we go tonight You know you shine so bright (you know you shine so bright) It's you and me tonight Baby girl you are the light Don't lose your shine Don't lose your shine Don't lose your shine Don't lose your shine Don't lose your shine Cause baby girl you are the light You know you shine so bright (you know you shine so bright) You look so fine tonight Baby girl you are the light And everywhere we go tonight You know you shine so bright (you know you shine so bright) It's you and me tonight Baby girl you are the light

Save your excuses I don't need them Flush your complaining down the toilet Do you need a towelette cause I'm fucking wrecked It ain't for my own good You supposed to throw out my back The only reason I bothered with that Juicy like toffee unwrapped No side dish for you to savour with that My fleet was ready But you ain't steady My engines revving Can't reach ascension I flushed your demons Preparing heaven My gate's wide open I should have known that you would let me down I should have known you'd find some body else in town I should have saved my insides from drowning out I don't know why, it happens every time I oooo why you wasting my time? It happens every time I ooo why you wasting my time? It happens every time I douche ooo why you wasting my time? It happens every time I douche It happens every time I douche (I douched for this?) Save your excused I don't need them Flush your complaining down the toilet Do you need a towelette cause I'm fucking wrecked It ain't for my own good
