Lyrics


1. LETTING IT BE

Before that there was you
There was nothing at all
You became my ecstasy and my alcohol
But now you’ve gone away - Taken my whole life too
I never thought that I’d recover from you

[Pre-Chorus]
Looking back - All I see is you
And I don’t know what to do
Looking ahead I see nothing
And I don’t know what - I don’t know what to do

[Chorus]
I’ll let it be - I’ll let it be
I’ll let it be when you’re wasting my mind tonight
I’ll let it be - I’ll let it be
I’ll let it be when you’re wasting my mind tonight

And after you were gone so was all of my fun
I had no hopes and dreams - Nowhere to run
But now I’m better now - Better than ever
I never thought that I’d recover from you

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Yeah Yeah Yeah You’re wasting my mind
Don’t know what to do - Don’t know what to do

[Chorus]

Yeah Yeah Yeah You’re wasting my mind
Don’t know what to do - Don’t know what to do


2. FEELING BEAUTIFUL

I want you - I can't have you
I want you and I know you think I’m pitiful
I want you - Will never have you
Open your eyes and see the man beneath my skin

And feeling beautiful is so hard
When she don't know your name

I want you - To have you
Want you to just start loving me
Instead of loving him
I want you - To have you
Open your eyes and see the man beneath my skin

And feeling beautiful is so hard
When she don't know your name
Feeling beautiful is impossible
When she don't know who I am no

Feeling beautiful
Feeling beautiful Yeah Yeah Yeah

Feeling beautiful is so hard
When she don't know your name
Feeling beautiful is impossible
‘Cause she don't - She don't - She don't know
She don't - She don't know
She don't - She don't know my name
She don't know my name


3. WEAK NIGHTS

(x2)
I lay in bed awake just wishing you were here
I can’t sleep at all
We both know only time can tell what can become
Of what you know I really want

[Chorus]
I wish that this could last forever
But I need for you to want it to
How can we make it till tomorrow?
If you think today is the end

I lay in bed awake just hoping you’ll come back
An hour passes by with no call at all
I try to figure out where I have gone wrong
Hoping you feel the same about me and maybe babe

[Chorus]

And I open my eyes and you were almost gone
Said I really got a wake up call
And I know that things are bad now but it wasn’t ever
I wanna be with you forever and ever and ever

[Chorus] (x2)

If you think today is the end
If you think today is the end


4. THERE YOU AREN’T

Come on - Come on

How come everytime I see you
We end up in a fight
I don't know why I wanna be with you
You're resisting me with all your might
Yes I don't know what you want from me

I used to be so special to you
Now I'm nothing at all
Never before in my life
Has my heart felt this small

[Pre-Chorus]
Yes I don't know what you want from me
I've given you my heart - It's all I've got
Yeah baby

[Chorus]
I don't know how to stay with you
‘Cause here I am
And there you aren't
‘Cause I don't know how to stay with you
‘Cause here I am
And there you aren't

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

‘Cause I don't know how to stay with you
‘Cause here I am
And there you aren't
‘Cause I don't know how to stay with you
‘Cause here I am
And there you - There you aren't

(x2)
‘Cause I don't know how to stay with you
‘Cause here I am
And there you aren't

‘Cause I don't know - I don't know
I don't know - See I don't know
There you aren't
I don't know - I don't know
I don't know - See I don't know
There you aren't


5. QUITTER

When I turned my back
See I made this big mistake
See I give in to anyone
But then I guess that there’s just you
Once I thought that I was fine
But now I know the truth
It’s hard to give up and turn around
When I think that I’m in love with you

[Chorus]
Time to be free - Don’t look at me
Just turn your back and walk the other way
Time to be free - Don’t look at me
Just turn your back and walk the other way

In the end it was so hard
To run away from you
And lock these feeling up inside
Hoping this fuck reality would become the truth

[Chorus]


6. PROVE ME WRONG

I can't ignore the pain
When I know what's going on
It's hardship that you give
You know it's worth nothing
Unless I'm really wrong
It's not supposed to be this hard
Not a dead challenge too
But I'll go on thinking it's perfect
No matter what the truth

[Chorus]
Forget for all the times that you looked at me
And told me I'm the one
It's not worth living at all to me
Unless you prove me wrong

Well I can't escape the pain
Even after you are gone
Yeah I thought that I knew everything
But I realize I know nothing
I sure wish that I was wrong
It wasn't supposed to be this hard
Not a dead challenge too
But I went on thinking it's perfect
No matter what the truth

[Chorus]

Forget for all the times that you looked at me
And told me I'm the one
It's not worth nothing at all to me
Unless – Unless - Unless you prove me wrong

You gotta prove me wrong
Unless you prove me wrong then I'm gone yeah
