Track Name: On The Radio (Explicit)
I thought I left you the Promenade
Looking for love in everyone's applause
Hey girl, go write your own hit on the radio
The radio

You think you're clever with your P.O.V.'s
While I am sticking to my ABC's
Hey girl, I heard you bitching on the radio
The radio

Go get your own light
Nobody said it would be easy to shine

I know you think you're cool,
I know you think you're it
You walk around like you're legit
'Cause you got three minutes on the radio
The radio
No one cares you're on the radio

I thought I left you with your pretty things
But you keep sticking to my guitar strings
Hey girl, you stole my shit then hit the radio
The radio

I saw that honey singing on TV
Her hips they moving to the melody
Hey girl, saw you lip synching to a different song
On the radio, the radio

Go get your own light
Nobody said it would be easy to shine

I know you think you're cool,
I know you think you're it
You walk around like you're legit
'Cause you got three minutes on the radio
The radio
No one cares you're on the radio

So sad, you can't find
Where your truth and your lies align
Everybody's in it for the show
Nobody remembers the heart

Go get your own light
Nobody said it would be easy to shine

I know you think you're cool,
I know you think you're it
You walk around like you're legit
'Cause you got three minutes on the radio
The radio
No one cares you're on the radio
I know you think you're cool,
I know you think you're it
You walk around like you're legit
'Cause you got three minutes on the radio
The radio
Fake it just to make it buying your Facebook fans
On the radio, the radio
You're only in it for the show
Track Name: Plastic Hearts
When I was just a little girl
Or so the story goes
I was born with eyes blue like the sky
And hair a shimmery gold

When I was only seventeen
I met the man of my dreams
He drove a fancy car
And bought me lots of pretty things

People say it isn't real
The love we surely make
I say no one makes me ill
Or makes my body ache (for you, like you)
People say our plastic hearts
Are nothing more than fake
How could this be true?
When no one gets me like you do

La di dah dah dah
Ooh
So the story goes -
Is any of it true?

Made with just fictitious parts
Nothing more than plastic hearts

People say it isn't real
The love we surely make
I say no one makes me ill
Or makes my body ache (for you, like you)
People say our plastic hearts
Are nothing more than fake
How could this be true
When no one gets me -

Like you do
No one wants me the way you do
No one likes to see the truth
That anyone could take
A love that is your fate
But I choose to believe
That you picked me

People say it isn't real
The love we surely make
I say no one makes me ill
Or makes my body ache (for you, like you)
People say our plastic hearts
Are nothing more than fake
How could this be true?
How could this be true?
How could this be true?
When no one gets me like you do
Track Name: Henrietta
Take naps, climb trees
Make friends, have tea
Tell me that you'll never have a friend like me

Hold my hand
Run, jump thru sand
Dress me up and
Take me everywhere you go

Who is more real -
Them or me?
Who is there to keep you company?
They're talking in halves can't you see?
Who is more real -
Them or me?
One half truth and one half lie
A barely living compromise
Who is there to keep you company?
Who is more real -
Them or me?

Take naps, climb trees
Sing me to sleep
Tell me your secrets
And I'll tell you mine

Take walks, explore
Learn what things are for
What makes you happy
What makes you cry
Who you are in this life

Who is more real -
Them or me?
Who is there to keep you company?
They're talking in halves can't you see?
Who is more real -
Them or me?
One half truth and one half lie
A barely living compromise
Who is there to keep you company?
Who is more real -
Them or me?

Who is more real -
Them or me?
Who is there to keep you company?
They're talking in halves can't you see?
Who is more real -
Them or me?
A substitute to rectify
Never being there in your life
Who is there to keep you company?
Who is more real them or me?
Track Name: I Can't Move
Take your words back from the page
Put your breath back in its cage
You sing lyric, you speak poetry
But your words drip ink and rage
Can we get back, can we get back to
The way we fell in love
At day one

I can't move
I can't move
I can't move
You're my sun, my moon
My gravity -
I can't move

Where do you go with all that fire?
My hands are blistered, my tongue is tired
I try to run but my feet betray -
And hold off fleeing one more day
Can we get back to the way we fell in love at day one

I can't move
I can't move
I can't move
You're my sun, my moon
My gravity -
I can't move

You're so impossible, you're so cruel
You've got your limits that I'm not allowed
You've made your point and you're so convincing,
That I don't need reasoning when you're around
You're so incredible, you're so true
So true

I can't move
I can't move
I can't move
You're my sun, my moon
My gravity -
I can't move
