I Need More

You're a ghost of a memory
I know you're going to haunt me again
No longer can I see what we could be
but only what could have been
I hear your voice inside my head
so clear, as if you're standing next to me
God help me as I plunge into the waves
hoping you'll be there to save me

I need more than your rushed apologies
I need more than you, I need more than you
I need more that your quick flatteries
I need more than you, I need more than you
I need more than your puppy dog eyes
I need more than you, I need more than you
I need more than your little white lies
I need more than you, I need more than you

Give me one good reason
Give me some kind of explanation
Did I not give you enough attention
Give me something to make sense of
What goes through your mind
when you see my name on the caller ID
Do you feel sorry for pushing me aside?
Do you have any idea how this feels?


I need more than your rushed apologies
I need more than you, I need more than you
I need more that your quick flatteries
I need more than you, I need more than you
I need more than your puppy dog eyes
I need more than you, I need more than you
I need more than your little white lies
I need more than you, I need more than you

When did it suddenly become okay
to treat me like dirt stuck on your shoe
Do me a favor and just go away
Don't ask me why I never talk to you
Sorry doesn't fix the mess you made
Sorry won't dry the tears I've shed
You took advantage of everything I gave
until I was in over my head


I need more than your rushed apologies
I need more than you, I need more than you
I need more that your quick flatteries
I need more than you, I need more than you
I need more than your puppy dog eyes
I need more than you, I need more than you
I need more than your little white lies
I need more than you, I need more than you

Walk All Over Me

I could spend all day out on 65
to get the hell out of this town
There's nothing here but bad news and heartbreak
I've got nothing left to hold me down
I know you don't give a damn
about what happens to me
Open up those pretty brown eyes
to see everything you're doing to me

There must be a big sign on my forehead
that says walk all over me
There must be a big sign on my forehead
that says walk all over me

Take a small step back
Come down off that pedestal you stand on
If you'd stop fighting me on this
I'd stop dying at your hand
I'm going to turn around
and wait so patiently
for you to pull the double edged sword out
Let me know when I do something right

There must be a big sign on my forehead
that says walk all over me
There must be a big sign on my forehead
that says walk all over me

You've been sketchy for two weeks now
changing all the plans we made
You don't even blink twice
and I'm positive you didn't hesitate

Can you hear the disappointment in my voice
I said I understand, that it's alright
But you've got no problem doing things
you know I'd never try

There must be a big sign
walk all over me
There must be a big sign
walk all over me

There must be a big sign on my forehead
that says walk all over me
There must be a big sign on my forehead
that says walk all over me
