“Yours To Take”
written by Elana Belle Carroll
Late at night
I come on home
Waiting for the moment we’re alone
Hoping you’ll have some good news to say
I come inside
You’re by my side
And next to me I can feel you hiding
From all your dreams and fears that run you down
So what can a poor girl say?
I can’t hide with you
I can’t run away
I wish that you could see there is a way
To live with love
To dream out loud
To be weird proudly
But I can’t give you that cause it’s yours to take
And so I light one up
Beneath the stars
You hate my smoking but quitting’s too hard
I never meant to make you mad like that
And silently you’re on the couch
With your phone just drowning out
Or drowning in the world
We call “today”
So what can a poor girl say?
I can’t hide with you
I can’t run away
I wish that you could see there is a way
To live with love
To dream out loud
To be weird proudly
But I can’t give you that cause it’s yours to take

Brother Forever

"Brother Forever"
Always wanted to leave
Never wanted to stay
So she packed her bags and went
She got up in the morning
Packed favorite furs
And diamond chip on her left hand
She never thought he’d do it
Hurt her when she’s pregnant
But always she was good at pretend
She thought she was protected
Could go undetected
Living in another land
Oh, jewelry
Jewelry and diamonds
Jewelry
Jewelry and diamonds
Living in the city
Living in the city
Living in the city, oh
(Repeat)
Always wanted to keep
Roaming but my brother
He was just a baby boy
Daddy, he was dead and
Mama was a drunk and
So she wanted to avoid them
Hold me
Hold me
Hold me in the palm of your hand
Hold me
Hold me
No one here can understand
Daddy was a killer
Mommy was unlucky
And every single sister’s married
So come into the city
Come in from the country
Where everyone is bored as hell
Hold me
Hold me
Hold me in the palm of your hand
Hold me
Hold me
No one here can understand
Living in the city
Living in the city
Living in the city, oh
(Repeat)
Jewelry and diamonds
Living in the city
Living in the city
Living in the city, oh
(Repeat)

Beer Lust

You think I want some more
I think you want me more than you believe
We’re dancing on the floor
And for this song I want you close to me
Tell me something that I don’t know
Hypnotize me cradle my soul
Every time I wanna relax
This is the place I’ll come back to
And when I move this way
I feel the air of four dimensions sing
And so I’d to stay
Through the night and through the morning rays
Tell me something that I don’t know
Hypnotize me cradle my soul
Every time I wanna relax
This is the place I’ll come back to
Da da da da

Take Me Somewhere
03:14
|
|||
I'm so sorry that I break my promises
Tryna make it to the other side
I try to answer all your questions honestly
But everybody's got their pride
I heard you saying that I don't know consequence
That I never have you on my mind
I think I'm gonna need another second chance
I never meant to make you cry
The only one for me
You were my fantasy
The one I dream of when I see my future
So take me somewhere
So take me somewhere
Yeah we're going to the party
Gonna make it right, make it right tonight
And if I can I'd like to be a helping hand
What can I do to help the days go by?
"Get out of bed" that's what they said "don't lose your head"
And "I'm hoping that the day today don't make me cry"
New medication
No hesitation
The social pressure
Keeps getting better
The only one for me
You were my fantasy
The one I dream of when I see my future
So take me somewhere
So take me somewhere
Yeah we're going to the party
Gonna make it right, make it right tonight

I know I shouldn’t be here
But I’m waiting for moments to come
That you say I shouldn’t be here
And I’m feeling alright cause I’m wasted
And it’s time to go the whole night
And it’s all right
I’m falling down
Don’t hit the ground
I’m here to dance
I’ll take a chance
And talk to you
Feel like a fool
When you don’t want
To talk to me too
Can’t tell you why I can’t believe what’s happening right here
Can’t tell you why I can’t believe what’s happening right here
Can’t tell you why why why why why why why why
I know I shouldn’t be here
Cause I've been here before and I think
That I said I’d take a breather
And I’m feeling alive
I can taste it
And I wanna see the sun rise
And it’s all right

Fuckboi

Show me
Someone’s tryna own me
My parents never call
And when they do they’re crying
I don’t know what to tell them
So I say keep trying
I’m not the goalie
I’m not only to bring this down
I have no alliance
I have no relation
My preference is my essence
You can change to the station
I’m not the goalie
I’m not only to bring this down
Get a goal (repeat)
You fuck me 'til I’m senseless
Doesn’t mean that you please me
But tell me how you like it
Let’s just keep this easy
I’m not the goalie
I’m not only to bring this down
You don’t know how I know you
I have solved your mysteries
The only clue I went from
Was your browser history
I’m not the goalie
I’m not only to bring this down
Get a goal (repeat)
I never learned to improvise
But someone’s tryna show me
My parents never call
And when they do they’re crying
I don’t know what to tell them
So I say keep trying
I’m not the goalie
I’m not only to bring this down
Get a goal (repeat)

Cut To Bleed
03:19
|
|||
I’ve been dreaming these days
I can’t tell sleeping from awake
sometimes in the morning I can’t escape
I wonder if this medication’s to blame
These dreams never feel right
It seems I’m looking for a fight
I’m scared to take apart the stories they tell
I think I know the plot line all too well
But the obstacles I’m facing and living everyday
Will all be fine
Predictable ain’t nothing and nothing ain’t no fun
I’m drowned by silence
Give me some air to breathe
Don’t need a cut to bleed
I’ve been thinking again
That entertainment is a sin
The way we treat our people breaks my heart
Seeing women in the movies tears me apart
But the obstacles I’m facing and living everyday
Will all be fine
Predictable ain’t nothing and nothing ain’t no fun
I’m drowned by silence
Give me some air to breathe
Don’t need a cut to bleed

Eden

|

"Eden"
I’m hoping that I learn to be alone
I’m learning that I get too close
Obsession with myself is hard to find
I won’t possess you cause I love what’s mine
I am my own Eden
I don’t need you praying for me
It’s my own religion
Living for the best of me
I’m the one, I’m the one, oh
I’m the one, I’m the one, for me honey
I’m the one, I’m the one, oh
I’m the one, I’m the one, for me honey
Romancing in my room all by myself
How weird is it if I feel fine
You know that we all die by ourselves
I could impress you but I’m wasting time
I am my own Eden
I don’t need you praying for me
It’s my own religion
Living for the best of me
I’m the one, I’m the one, oh
I’m the one, I’m the one, for me honey
I’m the one, I’m the one, oh
I’m the one, I’m the one, for me honey
I am my own Eden (repeat)
I’m the one, I’m the one, oh
I’m the one, I’m the one, for me honey
I’m the one, I’m the one, oh
I’m the one, I’m the one, for me honey

Valentine

"Valentine"
It’s Tuesday, it’s Tuesday
I, I
I’ve been sleeping way too long
I’ve been tryna write a song
Sometimes you make me feel good
Sometimes I’m misunderstood
When I go I wish I’d stayed
When I yell you walk away
Where did my dreams go?
Where did this kiss go?
Are you still playing with me?
I’ve been rambling for some time
Waiting for it to fall in line
Watching children come to life
Never wondering “what’s this, what’s this?”
Where did my dreams go?
Where did this kiss go?
Are you still playing with me?
Where can this sun go?
Where can this love go?
Are you still waiting for me?
Take the trash out
It’s Tuesday
Take the trash out
It’s Tuesday
Always wondering
“What’s this?” (Repeat)
Oh are we playing?

I've been feeling like it's about time to settle down
Last night I was out on the town for the last time
I've been thinking about you
In my arms
I've been thinking about you...

One day you’ll come back to me
One day you’ll come back to me in a way
One day you’ll come right back to me
I’m open
I’m open to another
Keep em coming
I can take it
I’ll take a pill
Gimme gimme something
Ima keep on looking
I don’t wanna feel like this
Gimme gimme something
Ima keep on looking
I don’t wanna feel like this
Want to turn it off
Want to scream and shout
You never told me you feel that way
You feel that way every day
I know you think it’ll pull me away
I’m open to another
Keep em coming
I can take it
I’ll take a pill
Gimme gimme something
Ima keep on looking
I don’t wanna feel like this
Gimme gimme something
Ima keep on looking
I don’t wanna feel like this
Want to turn it off
Want to scream and shout
I can never tell
What’s gonna happen to me
Oh all the flowers
On the seashore
And on the mountains
Gimme gimme something
Ima keep on looking
I don’t wanna feel like this
Gimme gimme something
Ima keep on looking
I don’t wanna feel like this
Want to turn it off
Want to scream and shout
I can never tell
What’s gonna happen to me

Dream Closely
03:45
|

I can’t move
When you told me how
You want me gone
Cause you’re all done
Just when I was getting better
You could go and take forever
From me
I’m nobody
When you don’t want me
We used to dream closely
Wake me when it’s over
I can’t take this sober
When you’re gone
There’s something wrong
I can’t go on
I hope it won’t be long
Before I give up to the never
Ever gonna be together again
Again
I’m nobody
When you don’t want me
We used to dream closely
Wake me when it’s over
I can’t take this sober
I don’t wanna let you down
(repeat)
I’m nobody
When you don’t want me
We used to dream closely
Wake me when it’s over
I can’t take this sober

When I get home from work
I got more work to do
It's all piling on
And I could use some help from you
We gonna break a sweat
Uh-oh there's so much to get through
We gonna get something done
I know exactly what to do
But each time I sit and I pull my books
I see you hunting for some loving
Boy, I know that look...
Well it's a full-time job
Just to give you all that love
Keep pushing what I got to do
To give you what you want
And it don't measure up
But oh I love the way you do
Well it's a full-time job
Just loving you
Been working hard everyday
And counting pennies on the side
I hope you take it okay
When I say I don't have much time to kill
I got a lot going on
I got my ducklings in a row
You like to do what you want
I hate to tell you but it shows
But each time I sit and I pull my books
I see you hunting for some loving
Boy, I know that look...
Well it's a full-time job
Just to give you all that love
Keep pushing what I got to do
To give you what you want
And it don't measure up
But oh I love the way you do
Well it's a full-time job
Just loving you
