Alexz Johnson Album

You said I was your everything
You said I was the one
You played me and like a radio
You used the love that I had no shame
Put my pain into words
Hold my hand to the flame

Tell me you love me like a star
Tell me you want me wherever you are
Tell me you breathe me till your last breath
Liar liar
Oh, liar liar

Bit by bit I feel the draught
Just sit back and watch it bump
Hold your eyes up to my veins
Call out call my name

Tell me you love me like a star
Tell me you want me wherever you are
Tell me you breathe me till your last breath
Liar liar
Oh, liar liar
Liar liar
Oh, liar liar
Tell me you love me like a star
Tell me you want me wherever you are
Tell me you breathe me till your last breath
Liar liar
Oh, liar liar

If I don't cry, do you think I don't feel?
If I look away
It doesn't mean I don't see
And just because I want, someone when I'm alone
Doesn't mean I'm helpless, and that I can't stand on my own
How far can we go before we break
How long can I wait
How strong do you think I am
How much can I take of this
Am I a rock or a rose or a fist
Or the breath at the end of a kiss
How deep do you wanna go
Cause I'll go there if I can
You make it harder than it has to be
How strong, how strong
Do you think I am
Oh oh
It's so hard to tell
What's in your heart (what's in your heart)
What you keep to yourself
Is tearing me apart (is tearing me apart)
An should I be afraid
To dream about you (to dream about you)
And if you feel the same
Whachya gonna do
How far can we go before we break
How long can I wait
How strong do you think I am
How much can I take of this
Am I a rock or a rose or a fist
Or the breath at the end of a kiss
How thick do you wanna go
Cause I'll go there if I can
You make it harder than it has to be
How strong, how strong
Do you think I am
Oh
If i, move in any closer
If you let go and give yourself away
And if we let this happen to us
Everything will change
How strong do you think I am
How much can I take of this
Am I a rock or a rose or a fist
Oh
How deep do you wanna go
Cause I'll go there if I can
You make it harder than it has to be
How strong, how strong
Oh
How strong do you think I am
How much can I take of this
Am I a rock or a rose or a fist
Or the breath at the end of a kiss
How deep do you wanna go
Cause I'll go there if I can
You make it harder than it has to be
How strong, how strong
How strong, how strong
Do you think I am?

Sick of the line that's fading me
I never know what to believe
In a world that's crushing me
You're the only one I see

I don't change my mind for anybody.
I won't waste my time on just anybody.
I won't share my life...
With anyone but you
It's such a long way...
With anyone but you
I couldn't follow...
With anyone but you
Never anyone but you

They put my poster on the wall,
They watch you wait for me too far,
They think they made me who I am.
Oh they don't know me at all.

I don't change my mind for anybody.
I won't waste my time on just anybody.
I won't share my life...
With anyone but you
It's such a long way...
With anyone but you
I couldn't follow...
With anyone but you
Never anyone but you

They built you up so hot
So you can hardly see the stars and need your feet
I'm falling through the cloud
Then it'll be the next to catch me

Ah, ah, ah
With anyone but you
It's such a long way..
With anyone but you
I couldn't follow...
With anyone but you
Never anyone but
Never anyone but
With anyone but you
It's such a long way..
With anyone but you
And I couldn't follow...
With anyone but you
Never anyone but you

I know how this song must look
Like a picture ripped from a storybook
Got it easy
I got it made

There's a golden road laid out before me
And everyone how they adore me
Like a diamond in the sun

Did you just waste your breathe
Askin me how I feel today
Do you really wanna know

I'm completely unconnected
Constantly rejected
Like everything I've ever loved is comin down
I'm drownin in a notion
In the middle of the ocean
Never knowin when it's over and I'm going down
That's how I feel

I know I sung before this game
Where everybody knows my name
Now they own..a little piece of me
My happiness fell off the track
And I'd do anything to get it back
Give this all..I'd give this all away

Did you just waste your breathe
Askin me how I feel today
Is that a place you wanna go

I'm completely unconnected
Constantly rejected
Like everything I've ever loved is comin down
I'm drownin in a notion
In the middle of the ocean
Never knowin when it's over and I'm going down

Then you see me
You say you don't even know me
Couldn't pick me out of a line now
The girl you know is so far gone
And I'm in hiding
Living life undercover
Smiling face for the camera
I'm not lone for this world..

I'm completely unconnected
Constantly rejected
Like everything I've ever loved is comin down
I'm drownin in a notion
In the middle of the ocean
Never knowin when it's over and I'm going down
That's how I feel
When you see me
Say you don't even know me...

There's me,
Looking down at my shoes
The one smiling like the sun
That's you
What were you thinking
What was the song inside your head
There's us
Going on about a band
Working out how we play our hand
I lay there dreaming
Later all alone in my bed
If I were stupid
Maybe careless
So were you

Not everything is supposed to come true
Some words are best unsaid
Some love is not really love at all
I'll keep everything I shared with you
And that's enough
There's us

Freeze frame
I'm not about to cry
It's too late for us to change
Why try
I've got a camera
Tucked away inside my heart
If i'm a loser
Or just unlucky
So are you

Not everything is supposed to come true
Some words are best unsaid
Some love is not really love at all
I'll keep everything I shared with you
And that's enough
There's us

Somewhere between then and now
I looked away
When you said we will never change
And if you think what might have been
You'll lose today
And we've got songs to play

Not everything is supposed to come true
Some words are best unsaid
Some love is not really love at all
I'll keep everything I shared with you
And that's enough
There's us

You think it's cool, just cuz they're telling you
You gotta have it, then you'll never miss it at all
You need the thrill, just cos it's killing you
You're so close, so don't take it too far

(Chorus)
Where there's smoke you'll find a mirror
It's over-rated
I've watched it fade
So please don't give in
Don't forget what you believe in
It's over-rated
It's not worth chasing
Don't you know that
You'll love to love and then you'll hate it

Love and lost and everything between
It's perfect, it's poison that made me fall
You want it bad
Don't want it to skip away
It's too fast
Gonna drag you down

Chorus

Coming close now, not any clearer
With every breath you're going deeper
But I will pull you back to me

Am I another casualty
In the battle you're fighting
You're your own worst enemy
At war with yourself but you can't see

And I can't stand to watch your comet coming fast
Everywhere you go it seems lightening strikes and then you crash
I don't know how you do it
It always ends the same
Everywhere you go it seems lightening strikes but there's no rain
No rain

Feel like you're moving in slow motion
And you don't know where you're going
You've tried it all and it's too boring
Tighten up your grip cause it's a long way downhill

And I can't stand to watch your comet coming fast
Everywhere you go it seems lightening strikes and then you crash
I don't know how you do it
It always ends the same
Everywhere you go it seems lightening strikes but there's no rain

Watching you slip away
It's getting harder everyday
When you're coming down like a hurricane
I can't stand to see you in pain
So I just look away

I can't stand to watch your comet coming fast
Everywhere you go it seems lightening strikes and then you crash
I don't know how you do it
It always ends the same
Everywhere you go it seems lightening strikes but there's no rain

No rain
No rain
No rain
No rain
No rain
No rain
No rain
No rain
No rain
No rain
No rain
Lightening strikes but there's no rain
No rain....

Three days,
Eight hours,
Fourteen minutes gone,
You bend,
I'll break,
Like you never saw,
Maybe I'm too skeptical,
Maybe I'm too tough to fall.

Everything you are,
Everything reminds me of,
Everything you are,
Fades to black,
Everytime I see your face,
Screaming the secrets we've shared,
We fade to Black.

I call out for your warm embrace,
Feel your tears fall,
Upon my face,
What makes me so bullet proof?
What makes me act so moved?

Everything you are,
Everything reminds me of,
Everything you are,
Fades to black,
Everytime I see your face,
Screaming the secrets we've shared

Feels like I'm running,
Running as fast as I can,
Feels like I'm trying,
Trying to understand why I keep crashing as hard as I can into you.

Everything you are,
Everything reminds me of,
Everything you are,
Fades to black,
Everytime I see your face,
Screaming the secrets we've shared...

Everything you are,
Everything reminds me of,
Everything you are,
Fades to black,
Everytime I see your face,
Screaming the secrets we've shared.

We fade to black

I'm getting up now
The sun is burning my eyes
And I ache
I'm living on a free way
Running low on hiding good mistakes.
I'm taking it to..
Living,
Just living all the lives I have to live.
I'm playing off this feeling,
Knowing that it's time to be forgiven.

If I could only come around,
I'm looking in the black stop
And turn around!
Can't get this off my back
Am I outta my mind,
Faking what's inside of me
(uh uh oh yeah)

It's like I'm walking on another thin line.
Where the fools keep on thinking I'm blind,
I'm waiting for the day (oh yeah)

I'm wide awake now
It's getting dark
And I can't see my way,
I'm living through the game now,
By watching every word that I might say.
And now
I've gotta come around,
I'm falling through the cracks stop
And turn around,
can't get this off my back
Am I outta my mind for faking what's inside of me...

It's like I'm walking on another thin line.
Where the fools keep on thinking I'm blind,
I'm waiting for the day
No, no, noo
I'm in the middle of a crime,
Taking left what's mine...
As I fade away.

With everything I am,
With all I'd have to stand...
I'm not going to fade..
Dragon tears and cover songs
And I done nothing wrong,
I just don't belong.

DA DA DA DA DA DA DA

It's like I'm walking on another thin line.
Where the fools keep on thinking I'm blind,
I'm waiting for the day... (oooh)
I'm in the middle of a crime...
Taking left what's mine as I fade away.

I'd go, where I don't know
If the earth could find my feet
I would run away
And go where I know

But you don't even care
No you don't even care
What's real

I'm not standing alone
I'm not standing around
Not gonna sit there and wait until I lose my ground
I'm not letting it go
I won't leave it behind
Won't pass me by, no not this time
I'm not standing alone
I'm not standing around
I'm not letting it go, won't leave it behind

I came so far
I nearly lost my mind
I held on so tight
And now I see that I was blind

But you don't even care
No you don't even care
What's real

CHORUS

I heard the body
I heard the song
Don't need nobody
Ain't nothing wrong
I hear the talk
And I hear the cry
I'm on the inside looking out
Yeah, yeah

Late at night I hear the song,
Spinnin in my head,
And I know I won't sleep at all,
Thinkin' 'bout all my stuff,
Missin' my own bed,
And all my friends, but it's too late to call.

Hanging out all day at the Holiday Inn,
Waiting's such a drag 'til the band kicks in.

I don't know where the next road goes,
Wanna feel the wheels goin' down the road,
Take my sweet time, I'm gettin' it back again.
What matters most will carry me,
Through the night,
You're were I wanna be baby.
Take my sweet time.
Oh, I'll be home again in my sweet time.

Goin' out at night,
And it feels so good,
How it works is a mystery!
I believe in my heart,
I'm doing what I should,
All these lost souls following!

Waitin' all day until this begins,
I love how it feels when the band kicks in.
Yeah! Yeah!

I don't know where the next road goes,
Wanna feel the wheels goin' down the road,
Take my sweet time, I'm gettin' it back again.
What matters most will carry me,
Through the night,
You're were I wanna be baby.
Take my sweet time.
Oh, I'll be home again in my sweet time.

Baby, when this is over I understand,
Oh, what I've got right here in my hands, yeah!

Baby...oh! Ooooooo! Yeah yeah yeah! Oh! Oh!

I don't know where the next road goes,
Wanna feel the wheels goin' down the road,
Take my sweet time, I'm gettin' it back again.
What matters most will carry me,
Through the night,
You're were I wanna be baby.
Take my sweet time.
Oh, I'll be home again in my sweet time.

Yeah yeah, in my own sweet time, yeah yeah, in my own sweet time, yeah!

My skin doesn't fit
My world seems so hallow
I feel like a fraud
And that's a bitter pill to swallow
Sometimes it hits me right between the eyes
Everyone can see through my disguise

Who am I fooling
I'm just a smiling face in a make believe world
Who am I fooling
I'm just a wannabe so easy to replace
Pretending I'm a perfect girl

All alone in the mir
All alone on the shelf
I'm trying to hold a little piece of myself
Doesn't anybody realize
Even I don't buy my own disguise

Who am I fooling
I'm just a smiling face in a make believe world
Who am I fooling
I'm just a wannabe so easy to replace
Pretending I'm a perfect girl

There's a part of me that fighting back
There's a part of me that knows
When I'm holding out my heart
I'm just putting on a show

Who am I fooling
In a make believe world
Who am I fooling
So easy to replace
Pretending I'm a perfect girl

Who am I fooling
I'm just a smiling face in a make believe world
Who am I fooling
I'm just a wannabe so easy to replace
Pretending I'm a perfect girl

Who am I fooling
I'm just a smiling face in a make believe world
And
Who am I fooling
I'm just a wannabe so easy to replace
Pretending I'm a perfect girl

Pretending I'm a perfect girl

I try to tell you I've got to get away
I try to say I need my space
I got to get some distance in between
My heart and my head
I'm on the razor's edge
I've been here before
I know the way
White lines and head lights in my eyes
White lines
I'm ready to drive all night
White lines
How many 'til I'm in your arms
White lines will bring me home
Lines will bring me home
I held you in my arms last night
I dreamed we were riding on a star
I kissed you and the sun began to shine
In dreams I can do anything
It seems like I'm on my own
Feels like I'm losing it all
White lines and head lights in my eyes
White lines
I'm ready to drive all night
White lines
How many 'til I'm in your arms
White lines will bring me
Seems like I've been here before
I know the way
Oh seems like I've been on my own
So long
So long
White lines and head lights in my eyes
White lines
Oh I'm ready to drive all night
White lines
How many 'til I'm in your arms
White lines will bring me home
