Walk Away - Christina Aguilera







What do you do when you know something's bad for you but you still can't let go?

One of the former soundtracks to my life...









I was naive
Your love was like candy
Artificially sweet
I was deceived by the wrapping

Got caught in your web
And I learned how to bleed
I was prey in your bed
And devoured completely

And it hurts my soul
Cause I can't let go
All these walls are caving in
I can't stop my sufferin'


I hate to show
That I

Lost control
Cause I

Keep going right back
To the one thing that I need
To walk away from

I need to get away from you
Need to walk away from you
Get away
Walk away
Walk away

I should have known
That I was used for amusement
Couldn't see through the smoke
It was all an illusion

Now I've been licking my wounds
But the venom seeps deeper
We both can seduce
But darlin' you hold me prisoner

Oh, I'm about to break
I can't stop this ache
I'm addicted to your allure
And I'm fiendin' for a cure

Every step I take
Leads to one mistake
I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need
Oh, I can't mend

This torn state I'm in
Getting nothing in return
What did I do to deserve
The pain of this slow burn
And everywhere I turn
I keep going right back to the one thing

That I need
To walk away from

I need to get away from you
Need to walk away from you

Every time I try to grasp for air

I am smothered in despair
It's never over, over

Seems I'll never wake from this nightmare
I let out a silent prayer

Let it be over, over

Inside I'm screaming
Begging, pleading no more

Now what to do
My heart has been bruised
So sad but it's true
Each beat reminds me of you

It hurts my soul
Cause I can't let go
All these walls are caving in
I can't stop my sufferin'
I hate to show that I've
Lost control Cause I
I keep going right back to the one thing

That I need

Oh, I'm about to break
I can't stop this ache
I'm addicted to your allure
And I'm fiendin' for a cure
Every step I take

Leads to one mistake
I keep going right back to the one thing

That I need

I can't mend this sorry state I'm in
Getting nothing in return
What did I do to deserve
The pain of this slow burn
And everywhere I turn
I keep going right back to the one thing

That I need
To walk away from

Need to get away from you
Need to walk away from you
Get away
Walk away
Walk away


Need to get away from you
Need to walk away from you
Get away
Walk away
Walk away

Bed of Lies - Matchbox Twenty


It appears that Rob and I maybe able to relate very well...







No I would not sleep
In this bed of lies
So toss me out
And turn in

And there'll be no rest
For these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning
I am

Don't think that I could take another empty moment
Don't think I could that I could fake another hollow smile
When it's not enough just to be lonely
I don't think that I could take another talk about it

Just like me
You've got needs
And they're only a whisper ... away
And we sofly surrendered
To these lives that we've tendered ... away

But I would not sleep
In this bed of lies
So toss me out
And turn in

And there'll be no rest
For these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning
I'm marking it down to learning

Cause I can

I don't want to be the one who turns the whole thing over
I don't want to be somehwere where I just don't belong
It's not enough just to be sorry
Don't you know I feel the darkness closing in

I tried to be
More than me
And I gave until
It all went away
And we've only surrendered
To the worst part of these winters
That we've made

But I would not sleep
In this bed of lies
So toss me out
And turn in

And there'll be no rest
For these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning
I'm marking it down to learning


I am
All that I'll ever be
When you
Lay your hands
Over me
Don't go weak on me please
I know that it's weak
But god help me I need this

I would not sleep
In this bed of lies
So toss me out
And turn in

And there'll be no rest
For these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning
I'm marking it down to learning

Cause I can

Sitting, Waiting, Wishing - Jack Johnson





Now I was sitting waiting wishing
That you believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd see the signs
But Lord knows that this world is cruel


And I ain't the Lord, no
I'm just a fool
And in loving somebody don't make them love you

Must I always be waiting waiting on you?
Must I always be playing playing the fool?

I sing ya songs
I dance a dance
I gave ya friends all a chance
Putting up with them wasn't worth never having you
And maybe you been through this before
But it's my first time
So please ignore
The next few lines cause they're directed at you

I cant always be waiting waiting on you
I cant always be playing playing your fool

I keep playing your cards
But it's not my scene
Won't this plot not twist?
I have no place to read?
Keep building me up, then shooting me down
Well I'm already down

Just wait a minute
Just sitting waiting
Just wait a minute
Just sitting waiting

Well if I was in your position
I'd put down all my ammunition
I'd wondered why'd it taken me so long
But Lord knows that I'm not you
And If I was I wouldn't be so cruel
Cause waiting on love ain't so easy to do

Must I always be waiting waiting on you?
Must I always be playing playing the fool?

No I can't always be waiting waiting on you
I can't always be playing playing your fool
