God saves the wicked ones for the last, for the last
He takes all the best of us much too fast, much too fast
I'm no believer but I have just one simple ask
Oh God, take the wicked ones, save the best for the last
It's always the same story, the good die young
So much to live for, so much that's left undone
It's always the same story, the good die young
Oh God, don't you think this cliché is overdone?
God saves the wicked ones, gives them love, gives them life
Perhaps he is hopeful that one day they may see the light
But somehow I'm doubtful that the evil can do right
So God take the wicked ones, leave the best of us tonight
It's always the same story, the good die young
So much to live for, so much that's left undone
It's always the same story, with the same mistakes
You could be wise, instead you take and take and take

Best I Ever Had-Demo
05:50
|
|||
I wanna be good, but I'm bad
And you're still the best I ever had
Don't matter if you drove me mad
Cause you're still the best I ever had
Oh, take away all that we had
You know I don't really need the things you gave me then
You opened my mind, can't go back
And you're still the best I ever had
I know that it seems like it's wrong
But I, there's nobody else I want
You showed me the things that I am
That's why you're the best I'll ever have
You lead, I follow where you go
I'll be a shadow
I etch myself to your side like a ghost
Just like a shadow
Worming your way through my mind
You let me see the world from your eyes
Part of you still lives inside
A most intoxicating parasite
You opened my eyes to a world
I hadn't seen since I was just a little girl
I placed all my life in your palm, what a fool I was
Suddenly that world was gone
You lead, I follow where you go
I'll be your shadow
I etch myself to your side like a ghost
Just like a shadow
Give me a hint, give me a sign
Tell me everything about your life
Are you alone? Or are you in love?
We both know that love is never enough
Is she afraid of sleeping at night?
What does she look like when she cries?
I know you know, or haven't you changed?
Your kind of darkness tends to remain
I wanna be good but I'm bad
And you're still the best I ever had
Don't matter if you drove me mad
Cause you're still the best I ever had
I wanna be good, but I'm bad
And you're still the best I ever had
My life is so numb, I'm a mess
Cause you're still the best I ever had
Don't leave me alone, don't go back
You know, you're the best I've ever had
I don't give a damn, please come back
Cause you're still the best I ever had

Half a Mile-Demo
06:23
|

It's only half a mile x2
Something tells me I'm wrong about the universe
She doesn't have a plan for my life
There's no magic out there to keep my lover
From coming back as quick as a knife
Oh my darling, what have you done?
I thought we were in love
I gotta feeling all our bad blood
Is not far enough
It's only half a mile x2
I spend every day all by my lonesome
Life maladaptive daydreamed away
Your love lives like a sickness in my psyche
A naegleria made of your name
Oh God, it's happening again
What do I do, should he want revenge?
Oh God, don't leave me alone
I gotta feeling he's coming home
It's only half a mile x2
I am in love with where I've been
I'm ready for it
Maybe I should move on from all the worst of it
If only it were simple as that
Something in me has been running from the get go
But something in me wants to go back
It's harder and harder every day
I was in love with someone insane
Every memory of our love
Is not far enough
