PRINCESS 02:44
I ran a second behind I was too late, out of time Keep complicating the complicated things in my life I don’t need your help I can tie my shoelaces fine Tie them together Make a bow, take a bow and fly I can’t become whatever I said, I said It was too early on for me to say anything I let myself down better than anyone else can ‘Cause I’m a princess And you don’t know me You don’t see all my diamonds the way I can ‘Cause I’m a princess I wish to be the very reason I get out of bed To be the very reason that I have all that I have I keep on trying to cling onto something that was never mine Mine, mine, mine Mine, mine, mine, mine I don’t need your help and I don’t want to call you mine Mine, mine, mine Mine, mine, mine, mine ‘Cause I’m a princess I’m nobody’s princess I’m just a princess I’m just a princess I’m just a I’m just a princess You can be a princess I’m just a princess Princess I’m gonna do my hair and do my makeup, here we go I wanna live my life I wanna head to kyoto I'm sick and tired of all places I cannot call home There’s still so much about me that even I don’t know I let myself down better than anyone else can ‘Cause I’m a princess And you don’t know me You don’t see all my diamonds the way I can ‘Cause I’m a princess I wish to be the very reason I get out of bed To be the very reason that I have all that I have I keep on trying to cling onto something that was never mine ‘Cause I’m just a princess

NEVER 03:14
Got home late ‘cause I went to see you It wasn’t worth it What’s even so special about you You make me feel surrounded It, it never comes Is this all just in our heads This imagination Does it ever come? Are we wasting time believing This could be freeing Why does everything feel so brand new I wish we were allowed it I hate the, the way you make me feel Your eyes are so crowded It, it never comes Is this all just in our heads This imagination Does it ever come? Are we wasting time believing This could be freeing Won’t say it once I’ll say it twice Every time you stay Never the same You say it once I’ll say it twice You change with the seasons Never tried to say it once I’ll say it twice You always take the fun away I hate being around your eyes You never seem to get it I won’t try to say it once Won’t say it twice

FLOWER 03:00
I wanna be your flower Water flowing down my skin I wanna be I wanna be I wanna be your flower What do they have that I don’t yeah Hey what’s so hard It’s not that difficult You just always play the victim card Started small Why didn't you call Maybe I’m overreacting But you said you’d walk me home I wanna be your flower Water flowing down my skin I wanna be your flower Even if you find another Why do I do everything wrong It’s all my fault I couldn’t keep you happy So now it’s done and now you’re gone All I ever wanted to be is what you wanna see When you come home late feeling down from the day Then your eyes meet mine and you say You’re my flower You’re my all in all You’re my flower Cuz I wanna be Wanna be your flower I wanna be your flower Water flowing down my skin I wanna be your flower Even if you find another I wanna be your flower You know I’ll give you all my time I wanna be I wanna be I wanna be your flower I wanna be I wanna be I wanna be your flower I wanna be I wanna be I wanna be your flower

SAFE 03:30
I know it seems a little crazy right now I’m not a fan of big crowds too I’ll let you hold my hand if it gets too loud You can hold it as long as you want to We can always leave when you want to I just wanna make sure that you feel safe Around me when you’re in my company I hope I can make you feel the same way I do When I think of you The way I do I do think of you I understand if you need some time to think Just know I’m waiting but there’s no rush Yeah, all I want Is all you want And all you are Is more than enough We can always leave when you want to I just wanna make sure that you feel safe Around me when you’re in my company I hope I can make you feel the same way I do When I think of you The way I do I do think of you It feels like standing at the bow of a boat It feels like cycling down an empty road It feels like falling asleep to the rain It feels so good to trust you

11:27 02:49
If I’m not good enough If I’m not good for someone Get thrown under the bus At least it blocks out the sun As I fall, worth a call Wonderful, today You may head me say How I hurt, so dear, a friend Yes I pushed me to the end But close my eyes and be aware What’s the time now, Shye? 11:27, 11:27 What’s your favourite number? 7, my perfect 7 If I’m not good enough Is it my fault or is someone better waiting for me I know it’s a stretch And I know my regrets But if they really mean what they say How could I complain? So if you hear me How I hurt, you’ll know it’s the end ‘Cause I’m always the last to bend I don’t know how to understand What’s the time now, Shye? 11:27, 11:27 What’s your favourite number? 7, my perfect 7

SOMEHOW 02:39
Oh how And where do I go from here Somehow Somewhere I can go from here If not now then what shall I do Not now I don’t wanna move Didn’t make plans Waiting for it to end Then you took my hand Hopeful again Now I can’t start thinking about it I’ll just feel even more far away Oh how And where do I go from here Somehow Somewhere I can go from here Sometimes I wish I didn’t know what happiness felt like with you So for now I don’t wanna move Gradually, so gradually I think of you Tenderly, so tenderly I miss you But I don’t wanna kiss you I just wanna love you I don’t wanna kiss you I just really miss you I don’t wanna kiss you I just miss you I miss you I don’t wanna kiss you I just wanna love you I just wanna love you I don’t wanna kiss you I don’t wanna kiss you I just wanna miss you I just miss you

NEED 02:57
Yeah, I’ve seen the signs I know all the red flags Watching me crumble Watching me crawl on back I’m gonna keep crawling back to you ‘Cause you’re picking me up Dropping me there Leaving me hanging on tightly to your loose thread But I still, I still wanted more of you It’ll wake me up when you’re leaving ‘Cause then I’ll finally have a reason to take a deep breath in and out Right now I can’t see myself with you Though I really need to see myself without you I really need to You were all I knew for a minute Can’t believe I let myself go like that ‘Cause the future was right there in that moment So dumb yet so honest But I’m picking me up Dropping me there Waiting for nothing to come Yeah nothing, nowhere But I still, I still wanted more of you I’ll set my sights on somewhere else Maybe I’ll set them on myself I’ll set my sights on somewhere else Maybe I’ll set them on myself I’ll set my sights on somewhere else Maybe I’ll set them on myself I’ll set my sights on somewhere else Maybe I’ll set them on myself It’ll wake me up when you’re leaving ‘Cause then I’ll finally have a reason to take a deep breath in and out Right now I can’t see myself with you Though I really need to see myself without you I really need to

JOKE 02:34
I came You saw You bend on the floor My heart can’t melt inside your hands Get out of my sight, out of my mind I’ll crawl the distance Until I’m breathing What a joke What a joke What a joke you are What a joke Say lalalalalalala I came for you Picked you Sorry mum My heart still melts inside your hands I loved you, loved you, loved you Hate you, just you Don’t need anymore time I need you by my side I still love Ugh, ew I don’t need time I need you by my side I want to squeeze you Till you close your eyes How I love my baby boy Look at you, you’re such a big big boy You don’t hold your Mummy’s hand anymore How about you watch the way you talk to her Little boy What a joke What a joke What a joke you are What a joke Say lalalalalalala What a joke What a joke What a joke you are What a joke Say lalalalalalala
