“Sixteen”
I was just sixteen
You know what I mean
Wearing my sundress
Back of a Corvette
Headed to the beach
Had my eye on you
Had my eyes on a few
Had my heart broken
Mended and opened
Over loving you
I was just sixteen
You know what I mean
Guitar and a tape deck
Punk rock reject
Did you hear me sing
I have something to say
I have something to say
I may be just a little girl
I have something to say
I was just sixteen
You know what I mean
Can’t believe what he did
I was a kid
It’s still haunting me
I have something to say
I have something to say
I may be just a little girl
I have something to say
I have something to say
I have something to say
I may be just a little girl
I have something to say
I have something to say
I have something to say
I may be just a little girl
I have something to say
I have something to say
I have something to say

“Young Love”
I had a high school crush
I still like him so much
Did you think our love
Would last
The timing’s never right
Except that every night
He’s been on my mind
So much
Young love
Young love
Young love
Grown up
Our nihilistic phase
Has seen its darker days
Now I’m on this craze
Called life
I tell him how I feel
That the consent is real
And the consensus is
Young love
Young love
Young love
Grown up
Young love
Young love
Young love
Grown up
Young love
Young love
Young love
Grown up
Young love
Young love
Young love
Grown up
Young love
Young love
Young love
Grown up
Young love
Young love
Young love
Grown up

“Scott Free”
When I don’t know how you’re feelin’
And you can’t make up your mind
When I miss you so much, honey
But nobody got the time
When the clock is always tickin’
And you feel like you’re behind
There’s a party that you’re missin’
Or a deadline
You wanna get off scot-free
When you’re needing a vacation
So that you don’t lose your mind
But it turns out your vocation
Runs your whole life
When the taxman’s comin’ for ya
And for everything you own
And the reaper’s comin’ for ya
And your life’s on loan
You wanna get off scot-free
You wanna get off scot-free
When you don’t know what you’re sayin’
And you think that you are right
When you wanna get away with
All your sins and all your crimes
When you know that change is comin’
And you feel like you’re behind
When the consequence is comin’
And you wanna run and hide
You wanna get off scot-free
You wanna get off scot-free
You wanna get off scot-free
You wanna get off scot-free

“Real & Fantasy”
If the magic is the mystery
Lock it up and throw away the key
Keep your secrets and don’t let me know
If you want me then don’t let it show
Cuz what we share doesn’t have a name
and how I feel will never change
Always on the edge of something hot and something sweet
On the edge of something real and fantasy
Always on the edge of something real and fantasy
If the magic is the mystery
Lock it up and throw away the key
Keep your secrets and don’t let me know
If you want me then don’t let it show
Forbidden fruit in the palm of my hand
Stripped bare down to the truth
Always on the edge of something hot and something sweet
On the edge of something real and fantasy
On the edge of something hot and something sweet
On the edge of something real and fantasy
Of something real and fantasy
Cuz what we share doesn’t have a name
and how I feel will never change
Always on the edge of something hot and something sweet
On the edge of something real and fantasy
On the edge of something hot and something sweet
On the edge of something real and fantasy
Of something real and fantasy
Of something real and fantasy
Of something real and fantasy

“Working Out the Kinks”
Waitin’ by the phone
Wonderin’ when I can get you alone
I see you in my dreams
But when I’m with you I can’t get no sleep
We’re working out the kinks
Waiting in the wings
Waiting for my cue to enter the scene
I hope I can perform
In the perfect way to make you believe
We’re working out the kinks
We’re working out the kinks
Do you believe
We can be free
Take how we feel
And make it real
We’re working out the kinks
We’re working out the kinks
We’re working out the kinks
We’re working out the kinks

Bond

“Bond”
I’d lick the spit right off your shoe
And do exactly what you told me to
If you could prove your love was true
I’d be your baby girl, daddy
I could tie you up in chains
Or have you any other way
But the only way I’ll stay
Is if you love me every day
I’d lick the spit right off your shoe
And do exactly what you told me to
If you could prove your love was true
I’d be your baby girl, daddy
If you could prove your love was true
If you could prove your love was true
If you could prove your love was true
If you could prove your love was true
If you could prove your love was true

“Gray Area”
Gray area
Miles between us
Talkin’, talkin’, talkin’, talkin’
Where are the lines
Where is my mind
Talkin’, talkin’, talkin’, talkin’
Gray area
Miles between us
Talkin’, talkin’, talkin’, talkin’

“When I See You Again”
When I see you again
When I see you again
The waves, the waves, the waves
Come rushing in
When I see you again
So much, a rush, a flood
Of memories
When I see, when I see you again
When I see you again
The waves, the waves, the waves
Come crashing in
The waves, the waves
The waves, the waves
The waves, the waves
The waves, the waves

“Is It Me”
Boy, who let you in my door
And who is it that you’re looking for
Is it your mama or your baby girl
A cup of sugar or the whole wide world
Or is it me
Is it me
Boy, who let you in my life
And put you here right by my side
Was it fate or a mistake
I feel like it’s a date
Or is it me
Is it me
Boy, who let you in my heart
You had me from the very start
So tell me now, here in the dark
Who do you love
Is it me
Is it me
Is it me
Is it me
Boy, who let you in my door
And who is it that you’re looking for
Is it your mama or your baby girl
A cup of sugar or the whole wide world
Or is it me
Is it me
Is it me
Is it me
Is it me

“Make It Through Another Day”
The world may be fallin’ apart
Your girl may be breakin’ your heart
You might be losin’ your mind
Nothin’ numbs the pain anymore
Unmotivated to say anymore
You wake up but you don’t know what for
You just make it through another day
Lost your job, lost your faith
Tryin’ to remember how to save face
In the face of a world in pain
Haven’t seen another soul in days
Scrollin’ down a blackhole of malaise
And everyday feels just the same
But just make it through another day
Cuz take it from me and the things I’ve seen
Nothin’ is the way it seems
There are people out there who really care
And all you gotta do is know they’re there
The world may be fallin’ apart
Your girl may be breakin’ your heart
You just might be losin’ your mind
But believe it or not this too shall pass
Just like everything else has
There’s love in the world and reasons to feel glad
Cuz take it from me and the things I’ve seen
Nothing is the way it seems
There are people out there who really care
And all you gotta do is know they’re there
Just make it through another day
Make it through another day
Make it through another day
Make it through another day
