Party girls don't get hurt
Can't feel anything, when will I learn
I push it down, I push it down
I'm the one "for a good time call"
Phone's blowin' up, ring up my doorbell
I feel the love, feel the love
One, two, three, one, two, three drink
One, two, three, one, two, three drink
One, two, three, one, two, three drink
Throw 'em back, 'til I lose count
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
But I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight
Sun is up, I'm a mess
Gotta get out now, gotta run from this
Here comes the shame, here comes the shame
One, two, three, one, two, three drink
One, two, three, one, two, three drink
One, two, three, one, two, three drink
Throw 'em back 'til I lose count
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night, feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier, from the chandelier
But I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Help me, I'm holding on for dear life, won't look down won't open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light, 'cause I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight, on for tonight
'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Oh, I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight, on for tonight
'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
'Cause I'm just holding on for tonight
Oh, I'm just holding on for tonight
On for tonight, on for tonight

Big Girls Cry
Tough girl in the fast lane
No time for love, no time for hate
No drama, no time for games
Tough girl whose soul aches
I come home, on my own
Check my phone, nothing, though
Act busy, order in
Pay TV, it's agony (oh)
I may cry ruinin' my makeup
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don't look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their heart is breaking
Tough girl, I'm in pain
It's lonely at the top, blackouts and airplanes
And I still pour you a glass of champagne
Tough girl whose soul aches
I come home, on my own
Check my phone, nothing, though
Act busy, order in
Pay TV, it's agony (oh)
I may cry ruinin' my makeup
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don't look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up
I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up
I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up
Alone
I may cry ruinin' my makeup
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don't look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their heart is breaking
No time for love, no time for hate
No drama, no time for games
Tough girl whose soul aches
I come home, on my own
Check my phone, nothing, though
Act busy, order in
Pay TV, it's agony (oh)
I may cry ruinin' my makeup
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don't look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their heart is breaking
Tough girl, I'm in pain
It's lonely at the top, blackouts and airplanes
And I still pour you a glass of champagne
Tough girl whose soul aches
I come home, on my own
Check my phone, nothing, though
Act busy, order in
Pay TV, it's agony (oh)
I may cry ruinin' my makeup
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don't look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up
I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up
I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up
Alone
I may cry ruinin' my makeup
Wash away all the things you've taken
And I don't care if I don't look pretty
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
Big girls cry when their heart is breaking

Burn The Pages
You're dark grey like a storm cloud
Swelling up with rain that is desperate to be let out
And I know it's a heavy load carrying those tears around
Carrying those fears around
Worry makes the world go round
You're twisted up like a slipknot
Tied by a juice head, who just took his T-shirt
And I know there's a hungry dog
Tugging at your frayed ends
But he's just playing with you, he just wants to be your friend
So don't worry don't worry
I'm here by your side
By your side, by your side
We're letting go tonight
Yesterday is gone and you will be OK
Place your past into a book
Burning pages let them cook
Yesterday is dead and gone and so today
Place your past into a book
Burning pages let them cook
Eyes stinging from the black smoke
New hope, loose rope
Risen from the undertow
All is well we welcome the cry of the dark night sky
Swallow me peacefully, follow my heart back inside
So don't worry don't worry
I'm here by your side
By your side, by your side
We're letting go tonight
Yesterday is gone and you will be OK
Place your past into a book
Burn the pages let them cook
Yesterday is dead and gone and so today
Place your place into a book
Burn the pages let them cook
Don't worry don't worry
I'm here by your side
By your side, by your side
We're letting go tonight
Yesterday is gone and you will be OK
Place your past into a book
Burn the pages let them cook
Yesterday is dead and gone and so today
Place your past into a book
Burn the pages let them cook
Swelling up with rain that is desperate to be let out
And I know it's a heavy load carrying those tears around
Carrying those fears around
Worry makes the world go round
You're twisted up like a slipknot
Tied by a juice head, who just took his T-shirt
And I know there's a hungry dog
Tugging at your frayed ends
But he's just playing with you, he just wants to be your friend

Eye Of The Needle
Take me down
I'm feeling now
And if I move on
I admit you're gone
And I ain't ready
But I'll hold steady
Yeah I'll hold you
In my arms, in my arms
In my arms
And you're locked inside my heart
And your melody's an art
And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time
Through the eye of the needle
Step and repeat
Tears fall to the beat
Smile through the pain
Feel the acid rain
And I ain't ready
But I'll hold steady
Yeah I'll hold you
In my arms, in my arms
In my arms
And you're locked inside my heart
And your melody's an art
And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time
Through the eye of the needle
My bag's heavy
Been filled by me
They weigh me down
Carry them round
It's all mine, all mine
Oh I am blinded
By the eye of the needle
And you're locked inside my heart
And your melody's an art
And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time
Through the eye of the needle
Eye of the needle
And you're locked inside my heart
And your melody's an art
And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time
Through the eye of the needle
I'm feeling now
And if I move on
I admit you're gone
And I ain't ready
But I'll hold steady
Yeah I'll hold you
In my arms, in my arms
In my arms
And you're locked inside my heart
And your melody's an art
And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time
Through the eye of the needle
Step and repeat
Tears fall to the beat
Smile through the pain
Feel the acid rain
And I ain't ready
But I'll hold steady
Yeah I'll hold you
In my arms, in my arms
In my arms
And you're locked inside my heart
And your melody's an art
And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time
Through the eye of the needle
My bag's heavy
Been filled by me
They weigh me down
Carry them round
It's all mine, all mine
Oh I am blinded
By the eye of the needle
And you're locked inside my heart
And your melody's an art
And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time
Through the eye of the needle
Eye of the needle
And you're locked inside my heart
And your melody's an art
And I won't let the terror in I'm stealing time
Through the eye of the needle

Hostage
You bring me to life
Then you shut me out
You keep me silent
When I should shout
You make me cry and you make me come
You are the cop and I'm on the run
It all begins with just one kiss
I'm held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs
Lock me up
I'm held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough but
I can't get enough
The secret life of us keeps me in handcuffs
Don't lock me up
Don't you wanna free us
I'm held hostage by your love
Then you let me out
And I catch the sun
You give me a taste of you and no one
But you always leave
And again I'm alone
This secret burns but I'm imprisoned
It all begins with just one kiss
I'm held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs
Lock me up
I'm held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough but
I can't get enough
The secret life of us keeps me in handcuffs
Don't lock me up
Don't you wanna free us
I'm held hostage by your love
The secret life
Of lovers who have others
Under the covers
And while
You break my heart
I'm a criminal in these parts
It all begins with just one kiss
I'm held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs
Lock me up
I'm held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough but
I can't get enough
The secret life of us keeps me in handcuffs
Don't lock me up
Don't you wanna free us
I'm held hostage by your love
It all begins with just one kiss
I'm held hostage by your love
Put me in cuffs
Lock me up
I'm held hostage by your touch
This prison is rough but
I can't get enough
The secret life of us keeps me in handcuffs
Don't lock me up
Don't you wanna free us
I'm held hostage by your love
Then you shut me out
You keep me silent
When I should shout
You make me cry and you make me come
You are the cop and I'm on the run

Put me in cuffs
Lock me up

Straight For The Knife
Put on my best dress, I wanted to impress
I put a little make-up on
Put a bow in my hair, wore pretty underwear
Hoping you might take it off
Don't know your etiquette
But I'm strapped to my chair
And it ain't 'cause you're pretty
You were charming, until
You saw your chance to kill
Your chance to make history
You went straight for the knife
And I prepared to die
Your blade it shines
Looked me straight in the eye
You turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight
You wonder why
I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you make girls cry
My mascara a mess, harsh words for your princess
Boy, you and your promises
If your goal was to love, you scored an epic miss
Now you'll just have memories
You went straight for the knife
And I prepared to die
Your blade it shines
Looked me straight in the eye
You turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight
You wonder why
I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you make girls cry
Boy, you draw me back in
I'm hungry for your bad loving
But will someone find me swinging from the rafters
From hanging on your every word
You went straight for the knife
And I prepared to die
Your blade it shines
Looked me straight in the eye
You turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight
You wonder why
I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you make girls cry
You wonder why you make girls cry
I put a little make-up on
Put a bow in my hair, wore pretty underwear
Hoping you might take it off
Don't know your etiquette
But I'm strapped to my chair
And it ain't 'cause you're pretty
You were charming, until
You saw your chance to kill
Your chance to make history
You went straight for the knife
And I prepared to die
Your blade it shines
Looked me straight in the eye
You turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight
You wonder why
I'm scared of fire
You wonder why you make girls cry
My mascara a mess, harsh words for your princess
Boy, you and your promises
If your goal was to love, you scored an epic miss
Now you'll just have memories

And I prepared to die
Your blade it shines

Fair Game
You terrify me
Cause you're a man- you're not a boy
You've got some power
And I can't treat you like a toy
The road less...Traveled by a little girl
You disregard the mess
While I try to control the world
Don't leave me
Stay here and frighten me
Don't leave me
Come now enlighten me
Give me all you got
Give me your wallet and your watch
Give me your first born
Give me the rainbow and the-
So go on and challenge me
Take the reigns and the seat
Watch me squirm baby
But you are just what I need
And I've never played a fair game
I've always had the upper hand
But what good is intellect and nerve if
I can't respect any man
Yeah I want to play a fair game
Yeah I want to play a fair game
You terrify me
We've still not kissed
And yet I've cried
You got too close in
I pushed and pushed
Opened your bites
So I could run run
And then I did betray the dust
You saw those teeth marks
They weren't all yours
You had been trusted to a history
That had not worked for me
Into a history from which I could not face
So go on and shake me
Shake until I give it up
When I am in doubt baby
I know that we could make some love
So go on challenge me
Take the reigns and the seat
Watch me squirm baby
But you're just what I need
And I've never played a fair game
I've always had the upper hand
But what good is intellect and nerve if
I can't respect any man
Yeah I want to play a fair game

Elastic Heart
[ Featuring The Weeknd, Diplo ]
And another one bites the dust
But why can I not conquer love?
And I might've got to be with one
I learned to fight this war without weapons
And I wanted it , I wanted it bad
But there was so many red flags
Now another one bites the dust
And let's be clear, I trust no one
You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace
Well I've got a thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band, until you pull too hard
But I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me move no more
'Cause I've got an elastic heart
I've got an elastic heart
Yeah, I've got an elastic heart
And now we stay up through the night
Let's be clear, won't close my eyes
And I know that I can't survive
I walked too far to save my life
And I want it, I want my life so bad
I'm doing everything I can
Then another one bites the dust
It's hard to lose a chosen one
You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace
Well I've got a thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band, until you pull too hard
But I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me move no more
'Cause I've got an elastic heart
Well I've got a thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band, until you pull too hard
But I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me move no more
'Cause I've got an elastic heart
Well I've got a thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band, until you pull too hard
But I may snap and I move fast
You won't see me move no more
'Cause I've got an elastic heart
I've got an elastic heart

Free The Animal
I love you so
Wanna throw you from the roof
The pressure builds
Wanna put my hands through you
I'll squeeze you tight until you take your last breath
Loving you to death
Loving you to death
The pressure's rising I won't make it through tonight
This love immortal is an assassin's delight
Just blow me up or run me down or cut my throat
And when it's time for you to die
I'll let you know
Detonate me
Shoot me like a cannon ball
Granulate me
Kill me like an animal
Decapitate me
Hit me like a baseball
Emancipate me

You take your chances when you kiss the hit-man

Fire Meet Gasoline
It's dangerous
To fall in love, but I
Wanna burn with you tonight
Hurt me
There's two of us
We're certain with desire
The pleasure's pain and fire
Burn me
So come on, I'll take you on, take you on, I
Ache for love, ache for us, why
Don't you come, don't you come a little closer
So come on now, strike the match, strike the match now
We're a perfect match, perfect somehow
We were meant for one another, come a little closer
Flame you came to me
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline
I'm burning alive
I can barely breathe
When you're here loving me
Fire meet gasoline
Fire meet gasoline
I got all I need
When you came after me
Fire meet gasoline
I'm burning alive
And I can barely breathe
When you're here loving me
Fire meet gasoline

Cellophane
Look at me I'm such a basket case
Delivered to you wrapped in cellophane
Waiting on your doorstep, out your day
Delivery, a basket filled with pain
Patience is your virtue, saint o' mine
I'd have fallen through the cracks without your love tonight
I'm your groundhog, and I'm skating on thin ice
But you see me at your feet and carry me inside
Eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh
Oh, can't you see I'm wrapped in cellophane?
Watch the blood pump through my veins
Electricity floods my brain
Can't hide the pain
Can't hide the pain
When you're wrapped in cellophane
Look at me I'm such a basket case
While I fall apart, you hide all my pills again
And all the things I need to hear you say
You'll watch as all my thoughts get right back on the train
Eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh
Oh, can't you see I'm wrapped in cellophane?
Watch the blood pump through my veins
Electricity floods my brain
Can't hide the pain
Can't hide the pain
When you're wrapped in cellophane
Oh
Can't you see I'm wrapped in cellophane?
Watch the blood pump through my veins
Electricity floods my brain
Can't hide the pain
Can't hide the pain
When you're wrapped in cellophane
Delivered to you wrapped in cellophane
Waiting on your doorstep, out your day
Delivery, a basket filled with pain
Patience is your virtue, saint o' mine
I'd have fallen through the cracks without your love tonight
I'm your groundhog, and I'm skating on thin ice
But you see me at your feet and carry me inside
Eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh
Oh, can't you see I'm wrapped in cellophane?
Watch the blood pump through my veins
Electricity floods my brain
Can't hide the pain
Can't hide the pain
When you're wrapped in cellophane
Look at me I'm such a basket case
While I fall apart, you hide all my pills again
And all the things I need to hear you say
You'll watch as all my thoughts get right back on the train
Eh eh eh eh
Eh eh eh eh
Oh, can't you see I'm wrapped in cellophane?
Watch the blood pump through my veins
Electricity floods my brain
Can't hide the pain
Can't hide the pain
When you're wrapped in cellophane
Oh

Watch the blood pump through my veins
Electricity floods my brain
Can't hide the pain
Can't hide the pain
When you're wrapped in cellophane

Dressed In Black
I had given up
I didn't know who to trust, oh
So I designed a shell
Kept me from Heaven and Hell, oh
And I had hit a low
Was all I let myself know, yeah
Yeah I had locked my heart
I was imprisoned by dark (I was imprisoned by dark)
You found me dressed in black
Hiding way up at the back
Life had broken my heart into pieces
You took my hand in yours
You started breaking down my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life passed me by
Missed my tears, ignored my cries
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
And then you crossed my path
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
Then you covered my heart in kisses
I was down for the count
Yes I was down, I was out, oh ooh
And I had lost it all
Yes I was scared, I was torn oh
And I took to the night
I'd given in to the fight oh ooh
And I slipped further down
I felt like I had drowned
You found me dressed in black
Hiding way up at the back
Life had broken my heart into pieces
You took my hand in yours
You started breaking down my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life passed me by
Missed my tears, ignored my cries
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
And then you crossed my path
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
Then you covered my heart in kisses
I was hopeless and broken, you opened the door for me
Yeah I was hiding and you let the light in and now I see
That you do for the wounded, what they couldn't seem to, you set them free
Like a butterfly kissing a child with an eye for the minor key yeah
You found me dressed in black
Hiding way up at the back
Life had broken my heart into pieces
You took my hand in yours
You started breaking down my walls
And you covered my heart in kisses
I thought life passed me by
Missed my tears, ignored my cries
Life had broken my heart, my spirit
And then you crossed my path
You quelled my fears, you made me laugh
Then you covered my heart in kisses
Covered my heart in kisses
I didn't know who to trust, oh
So I designed a shell
Kept me from Heaven and Hell, oh

I was imprisoned by dark (I was imprisoned by dark)
