Piano Actress

I can’t help how I’m made up
I drink from champagne glasses cause I can’t reach the cups it’s just
the way I am

I’m the piano actress
I’ve got pi-ana tactics and a bit of a maniactic soul
I’m in line for the big show
the broadway Miss Blanch Devero
A Golden Girl, a shiny nickel’s worth

I drink my cappuccino’s like I eat my soup
never wear watches cause I couldn’t give a hoot ’bout time, it’s always runnin, running along
wa wa wa wa wa

I’m the piano actress
I’ve got pi-ana tactics and a bit of a maniactic soul
I’m in line for the big show
the broadway Miss Blanch Devero
A Golden Girl, a shiny nickel’s worth

Could it be you I’m missing? In my life, in my life
sometimes I’m thinkin’, while we’re kissin’
maybe I should think twice- oh but acting’s so nice

At three AM there’s things running in my head like
I like it better when it’s you making my bed
it’s an endless carousel, a merry go round, and round and round and round and round and round and round and round

I’m the piano actress
I’ve got pi-ana tactics and a bit of a maniactic soul
I’m in line for the big show
the broadway Miss Blanch Devero
A Golden Girl, a shiny nickel’s worth

Perfect

I sent you a package
containing my heart
no second chances but I’d like to start over again
and this time baby, I will play fair
I’ll even let you run your fingers through my hair

You know I’m no drama queen and I don’t cause a scene I’m just a regular girl
but I still, prefer diamonds over pearls

I think I scared you off
by being myself I end up all alone
your loss
and I know I should stop
blaming myself for your insecurity, maybe you forgot

that I am no drama queen and I don’t cause a scene I’m just a regular girl
but I still, prefer diamonds over pearls

It gets better by day I’m happy with the choice he made cause it saved me from making a mistake
a better man will come along he’ll match my mind and he’ll be strong and things will start making sense again like
I’m perfect
Your perfect
She’s perfect
We’re perfect
I’m perfect, just the way- that I am

Not the One

Did you think that I was stupid
Did you think I didn’t notice
that I didn’t do my homework
You’re just a little boy
I am not your small toy
You can be your assets on that

So go, and leave me alone, don’t come over anymore
cause you’re not worth my time
Just go- and never call me again
don’t bring me roses or the tea I like, I will not mistake you for the one

You thought you’d pull a fast one
I’m better than your last run
you can kiss your trophy goodbye
you do this thing with your eyes, but faces they never lie
I know that you’re a fake

So go, and leave me alone, don’t come over anymore
cause you’re not worth my time
Just go- and never call me again
don’t bring me roses or the tea I like, I will not mistake you for the one

The one is the boy who saw me in a crowd
even when there were hundreds of girls
the one might not know he’s the one
but he knows that I’m fun and I’m waiting to be found

You’re not the one
No not the one

Romantic Acrobat

This is not a lullaby
and it surely will never make you cry
but it will make you think
I could be your missing link

I don’t tell this to just anyone
but I think that we could have lots of fun
I’ll surprise you everyday
if you don’t let me get away

And this is why I am a catch
I’m the romantic acrobat
I would be your shining star, and love you for who you are
and this is why I should be snatched
I’ll stand above the aftermath
I will be there when you’re down, and I’ll turn your life around

I know you better than you think
You’re the clumsy skater in a skating rink
you would never hurt a fly
and you won’t let me pass you by

And this is why I am a catch
I’m the romantic acrobat
I would be your shining star, and love you for who you are
and this is why I should be snatched
I’ll stand above the aftermath
I will be there when you’re down, and I’ll turn your life around

You told me that I’m trouble, well I’m glad we’ve got that
out of the way
I bend all the rules I’m daring and I’m schooled in
changing my mind
you told me what I needed
and you said what would be good for me
but you failed to realize
in the end I’m the prize
I’m worth winning that fight
I’m a child but I’m right for you

I’ll sing to you instead of speak
don’t be alarmed if your knees fall week
this heart is made of gold, my intention’s not two fold

I saw the way you looked at me
I’m opposite the women you call honey
you’ll be seein’ me around
cause It’s a keeper, you have found

My Piano

How is it that
you know me better than my piano
my piano
I’m so afraid, you’ve opened up my heart and now you’ll leave me, alone
with my piano

What can I say, to make you stay with me
Don’t go away, I like you here with me
it’s not okay for you to go, unless you tell me, and my piano we’re on our own

I’ll just sit back
and hope that my face doesn’t show how I’m feeling
cause my hearts screaming

What can I say, to make you stay with me
Don’t go away, I like you here with me
it’s not okay for you to go, unless you tell me, and my piano

We’re just starting out
I’m already laughing
You have me figured out
You have me

A waiting game we’ll see
me and my piano
my piano

What can I say, to make you stay with me
Don’t go away, I like you here with me
it’s not okay for you to go, unless you tell me, and my piano

Heart Hold Strong

Heart hold strong for just a day
allow my head to take in all the pain
I know you feel I should be moving on
please stop the ache and let my mind, take on

Heart hold strong
can you beat inside the silence can you numb everything wrong
heart hold strong
stay conscious of the reasons don’t forget to carry on
heart hold strong, come on
heart hold strong

Heart hold strong another year
and let the laughter replace all my tears
I know I said that I would feel it all in time
but I’m alright now, can’t you put it all aside

Heart hold strong
can you beat inside the silence can you numb everything wrong
heart hold strong
stay conscious of the reasons don’t forget to carry on
heart hold strong, come on
heart hold strong

Before I Crash

I am so ready to get out of this place
and I would never protest picking up the pace
It’s so frightening to think that something might actually be on the brink
almost like my feet are cold when I’ve already been sold

now go go go go
rush rush rush rush
get to work on time you must adjust now you’ll just wait and see one day you won’t see me

Before I Crash
cause I’ll crash
yes I’ll crash
yes I’ll crash

It’s a blessing in disguise by lullabies
hush up little baby don’t you ever cry
I know mamma won’t buy me a mocking bird
or diamond ring-uh
keep in mind here comes the time when
I’ll just sing

now go go go go
rush rush rush rush
get to work on time you must adjust now you’ll just wait and see one day you won’t see me

Before I Crash
cause I’ll crash
yes I’ll crash
yes I’ll crash

It’s been a day I’ve been waiting for it keeps me wanting more
before I jump the gun won’t someone
save me

now go go go go
rush rush rush rush
get to work on time you must adjust now you’ll just wait and see one day you won’t see me

Before I Crash
cause I’ll crash
yes I’ll crash
yes I’ll crash

Maybe I Should Have Stayed

I’m driving along I’m trying to write lyrics to this song
but its hard when all I think about is you
and you’re driving me insane I’ve only known you for a few days, my head keeps on moving forward but my heart takes two steps back

I wish you could see me in my white skirt
watch me fly as high as a kite and know it’s true
that it’s because of you
I wish you could be with me at sunset, brush my shoulder it gets colder everyday
maybe I should have stayed

I’m running outside it’s nighttime and the lights are brightly shining on the unfinished construction site, and it comforts me to know that there are changes still to go I’m hoping one day we will meet again and night walk in the street

I wish you could see me in my white skirt
watch me fly as high as a kite and know it’s true
that it’s because of you
I wish you could be with me at sunset, brush my shoulder it gets colder everyday
maybe I should have stayed

and yet something tells me deep inside
that when you walked into my life
I never really knew I was alive

I wish you could see me in my white skirt
watch me fly as high as a kite and know it’s true
that it’s because of you
I wish you could be with me at sunset, brush my shoulder it gets colder everyday
maybe I should have stayed

Kaleidoscope World

Cold as ice
white like snow
the air outside is catching bold
people talk and they can’t see
it’s hearing things that makes sense to me

could it be something or could we be insane

I’m such a fan of being my own self
seems that it gets in the way of being someone else
you can’t judge me for taking my sweet time, I don’t let life escape me I just keep on skipping lines

Catch me if you can I’m hard to chase
in a kaleidoscope world, you quicken your pace

could it be painless this time
and could you be to blame

I’m such a fan of being my own self
seems that it gets in the way of being someone else
you can’t judge me for taking my sweet time, I don’t let life escape me I just keep on skipping lines

Could this be
it for me
could I see
the end

I’m such a fan of being my own self
seems that it gets in the way of being someone else
you can’t judge me for taking my sweet time, I don’t let life escape me I just keep on skipping lines

Over the Top

I would never fit in a box
and sometimes I wear mis-matching socks

I would never
have even thought
that I’d be scared of getting caught
looking at you

not a nervous person but
you make me nervous
I don’t want to admit it but
how else can I word this

I’m over the top
for you
I’m over the top
for you

You don’t really look
my type
but your mind your voice
it’s exactly what I like
about you

not a nervous person but
you make me nervous
I don’t want to admit it but
how else can I word this

I’m over the top
for you
I’m over the top
for you

I hope that its not obvious
I’m trying to maintain
the same

I’m over the top
for you
I’m over the top
for you

In the City

It didn’t hit me at first
I didn’t understand your tone
and in a room of crowded people
I am standing all alone

The tears came down like monsoons
I stood in the bitter cold
tried to escape the reality
tried not to unfold

And I wish that I was running in the city
cause at least I’d know the city’s running me
And I’d be around ordinary people
aren’t people ordinarily like me

I’m stayin’ strong for you mom
and dad I want to make you proud
and in the middle of confusion
we’re the darkest house in town

And I wish that I was running in the city
cause at least I’d know the city’s running me
And I’d be around ordinary people
aren’t people ordinarily like me

And it’s all condensed
into one big mess
and I will confess
I’m not ready- ready to accept

Already been a few weeks
It still feels like yesterday
the pain it comes every now and then
but I take it, day by day

And I wish that I was running in the city
cause at least I’d know the city’s running me
And I’d be around ordinary people
aren’t people ordinarily like me

Rock On By

I will never leave you
cause without you I’d be lost
and I will desert you
cause your price is worth the cost
you’ll take me to my freedom
you’ve already let me fly
and for now we’ll just sit here
as they rock on by

but we will rock on by
as the judges choose winners of less than noble blood
and we will rock on by
as the smudges on sinners cheeks fade
we will make it through
cause lord knows that we still pay our dues
I’ve got nothing to loose
and I will rock on by
as long as I’ve got you by my side

I will not forget you
even when the rain will wash away your face
and into an eternity
of our memories you’re placed
in my mind we’ll get there
and finally you will be at peace
cause our family mourns your loss
but its your laughter that we’ll keep

but we will rock on by
as the judges choose winners of less than noble blood
and we will rock on by
as the smudges on sinners cheeks fade
we will make it through
cause lord knows that we still pay our dues
I’ve got nothing to loose
and I will rock on by
as long as I’ve got you by my side

And even when we’ve lost all our money
the land of milk and honey will remain
thought we may suffer death, destruction
a life of corruption
we still have it made

I will never leave you
cause without you I’d be lost
and I will desert you
cause your price is worth the cost
you’ll take me to my freedom
you’ve already let me fly
and for now we’ll just sit here
as they rock on by

but we will rock on by
as the judges choose winners of less than noble blood
and we will rock on by
as the smudges on sinners cheeks fade
we will make it through
cause lord knows that we still pay our dues
I’ve got nothing to loose
and I will rock on by
as long as I’ve got you by my side
