Hurting, Too
03:07

I didn’t make the rules
I just play outside them
Yeah, I got caught up too
While you were deep inside him
Thought I didn’t love you
The way you wanted me to
Too, yeah
Said I needed things to be open
As wide as the ocean
Fall in; will you notice me?
Or are you too blind to see me
‘Cause I’m hurting
Tryna make the best out of a burden
Hold me so I know that you’re hurting, too
Now I’m just thinkin ‘bout
All that we said in silence
Tryna avoid the violence
Words shooting in the air
Far from the world out there
Said I needed things to be open
As wide as the ocean
Fall in; will you notice me?
Or are you too blind to see me
‘Cause I’m hurting
Tryna make the best out of a burden
Hold me so I know that you’re hurting, too
Would you still need me?
Would you still want me if I –
Would you still take me if I broke down?
Would you still need me?
Would you still want me if I –
Would you still take me if I broke down?
‘Cause I’m hurting
Tryna make the best out of a burden
Hold me so I know that you’re hurting, too
‘Cause I’m hurting
Tryna make the best out of a burden
Hold me so I know that you’re hurting, too

Sleep is now a thing I only dream of
You occupy each moment in my mind
I lay my head down more than a few times
But I can’t stop checking if you’ve replied
Babe of course I know you’re busy, but my heart don’t care about logic
There’s too much left to analyze, it’s driving me crazy
Try to play it off like I’m not jealous
‘Cause jealousy is such a wasted life
But my insecurities are here working me overtime
I may never kick it to the edge of my plagued mind
I try to leave it all behind and trust in you reaching for my hand, you’re such a man
Sometimes I wonder why I even bother
Just text me back so I do not squander
It don’t have be a whole conversation
I just need a little confirmation
Boy, am I bothering you?
If I am just let me know
Typically I’m pretty level headed
But you bring out this fool that I don’t know
Kissing out in public, I spearhead it
Not even waiting for the shadows
Babe of course I know you love me
I’m not stupid but you don’t say it
There’s too much left to analyze, it’s driving me crazy
Try to play it off like I’m not jealous
‘Cause jealousy is such a wasted life
But my insecurities are here working me overtime
I may never kick it to the edge of my plagued mind
I try to leave it all behind and trust in you reaching for my hand, you’re such a man
Sometimes I wonder why I even bother
Just text me back so I do not squander
It don’t have be a whole conversation
I just need a little confirmation
Boy, am I bothering you?
If I am just let me know
Don’t wanna sit by the phone waiting desperately
Don’t leave me open for heart surgery
Your arms should be crushing me preferably
Instead you got me acting like all of 16
Don’t wanna sit by the phone waiting desperately
Don’t leave me open for heart surgery

Falling Back

A night away could do us some good maybe
Cross that bridge, sink or swim, or drown lately
Why you actin’ so hard in your Gaga jock with that poker face?
You ain’t that bitch
When I want it, when I need it, where the hell are you?
When I crave it, when I’m tryna lay up right beside you
You leave me on the phone
Constantly wanting more
When I’m pleading to you baby give it to me
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (I can’t keep)
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (With every heartbeat)
No matter how close I get, you know what I’mma do (I just keep)
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (You, you, you)
It ain’t a race but damn man I can’t wait all day
Smushing my face you knew exactly how to play
Get me hooked on your touch and the way that you treat me like any other trick
Guess I’m that bitch
When I want it, when I need it, where the hell are you?
When I crave it, when I’m tryna demonstrate what I can do
You leave me on the phone
Constantly wanting more
Maybe this is how you want it to go over
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (I can’t keep)
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (With every heartbeat)
No matter how close I get, you know what I’mma do (I just keep)
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (You, you, you)
You
I can’t, I can’t keep falling backwards
You only want me to stand up second or third
I can’t, I can’t keep falling backwards
I can’t, I can’t, I can’t…
(I can’t keep)
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (I can’t keep)
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (With every heartbeat)
No matter how close I get, you know what I’mma do (I just keep)
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (You, you, you)
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (I can’t keep)
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (With every heartbeat)
No matter how close I get, you know what I’mma do (I just keep)
Falling back, falling back, falling back to you (You, you, you)

You Could Have It
03:04

Look at me morphing into these bedsheets
Leave the door open and come get me
Nervous, but you touch me so gently
Yet confident the way you so beastly
Levels to this game it ain’t easy
Break the law, break the chains, baby break free
My body is your body, your body is yours
My body is your body, your body is yours
I surrender if you wanna go down
Guinness Record around this town
Have your legs weak after a merry go round
Bum bum di di bam bam I’ll play, okay
If I told you once, know I said you a hundred times
(You wouldn’t believe me)
You could have whatever you like, the way you stare in my eyes
(‘Cause you wouldn’t deceive me)
If you wanna taste the cake, but not lick the plate
You wanna leave the frosting right on my face, eh
You could have it
You could have it
You could, you could, you could, you could, you could have it
Dress me up so you can undress me
I push back, you push deep, that’s your legacy
Quirky little smile as you end me
Bum bum di di bam bam a dey (let’s play)
I leave the pink light on so you could tease
‘Cause you know I’mma let you take the lead
I guess it’s my destiny
Child, I’ve never been so turn-key
I surrender if you wanna go down
Guinness Record around this town
Have your legs weak after a merry go round
Bum bum di di bam bam I’ll play, okay
If I told you once, know I said you a hundred times
(You wouldn’t believe me)
You could have whatever you like, the way you stare in my eyes
(‘Cause you wouldn’t deceive me)
If you wanna taste the cake, but not lick the plate
You wanna leave the frosting right on my face (Eh)
You could have it
You could have it
You could, you could, you could, you could, you could have it
No need to be ‘fraid of demotions
No need to be ‘fraid of devotion
No need to cause no commotion
(Bum bum di di bam bam I’ll play, okay)
No need to be ‘fraid of demotions
No need to be ‘fraid of devotion

The longer I’m sidelined the more that I’m sure
You don’t really want this like you told me before
I’m not a ragdoll, don’t throw me around
Baby I’m a star, I’m no background, yeah
The longer I’m sidelined, deep diving
So, who you gonna love when you go home?
Who you gonna talk to when you’re all alone?
Why you all on Instagram and I’m at home alone?
Sitting here, on read baby
So, who you gonna love when you go home?
Who you gonna talk to when you’re all alone?
Why you all on Instagram and I’m at home alone?
(Sitting here, on read baby)
Ooo, yeah
Now don’t come at me like I’m brand new
Baby, look into our history
I done been checking up on you
By now you should be so used to me, eh
You’re fading into poetry
Penned by my memories
Hey, don’t you forget about me
As you make your money
So, who you gonna love when you go home?
Who you gonna talk to when you’re all alone?
Why you all on Instagram and I’m at home alone?
Sitting here, on read baby, uh
So, who you gonna fuck when you go home?
Who’s gon’ check up on you when you're doing wrong?
I wish I could just hate you
My luck I fucking love you
(Sitting here, on read baby) Ooo, Ooo, yeah
I wish I could teach you boy
How to stop fumbling
When it’s good it’s pure joy and more
Take your breath on my phone
Prove what I’m waiting for
Don’t fuck it up, don’t fuck it up
(Who you gonna love?)

Don't Say What
03:06

Words evaporate
Drowning in the blue
I can’t escape the way you
Pull me into your space
Can’t stand how much I want you to be mine oh mine
Worlds away
Never thought the distance would feel like we never missed a day…
It’s so strange
Lying on the couch
and I don’t need more
With my arms around you
And my heart on your forehead
I’ve never been so good
Kiss you on your cheek
When you looking at me
Staring back with sad eyes
But you don’t say what you need
From me
But I need you
Show me what it’s like to build a life
I need you
And we don’t even think twice, about the silence
I guess you never felt compassion like I
But it makes me so happy being that guy
How could the grass be so green on this side?
I hope we never face a moment when I
Say the wrong thing and then you
You turn a blind eye
And all though we try, we can’t outrun the tide
Keep lying on the couch
‘Cause I don’t need more
With my arms around you
And my heart on your forehead
I’ve never been so good (So good, so good)
Kiss you on your cheek
When you looking at me
Staring back with sad eyes
But I don’t say what you mean to me
But I need you, I need you

(Fallin', fallin' fallin', fallin’)
(Fallin', fallin' fallin', fallin’)
Aww baby, lay me down on this pull-out couch
Aww baby, it’s been too long, I need you now
Aww hold me, and don’t you dare lift one finger off this melanin (Yeah)
Aww baby, how you so sweet? Just come kiss me
Aww baby, just pull them sheets, weekend and see
Aww baby, it’s effortless when I come to town (Don’t ya think?)
‘Cause falling in love doesn’t have to be so hard
You show me scars, and I gladly drop my cards
Watch your tattoos dancing as you're sleeping
Caress your arm to make sure nothing’s missing
And smile like a fool obsessed with you
But only a fool couldn’t see what I see in you
We die laughing at queens on Downton; it’s true
Of course the world had to pause to find you, ooh
‘Cause falling in love doesn’t have to be so hard
I show you hearts, and you gladly drop your cards
You look so happy just holding my hand
Driving me nowhere to unknown land
You look so happy, keep holding my hand
‘Cause falling in love doesn’t have to be so hard
You show me scars, and I gladly drop my cards
‘Cause falling in love doesn’t have to be so hard
I show you hearts, and you gladly drop your cards
Falling in love

Heart Race
03:02

I took the train to Etobicoke
Wanted so hard not to let it go
Overthinking every note you wrote
Boy you got me fucked up
Maybe it’s just insecurities
Redirecting everything I see
I wanna chill, and just let you be
Lost in my emotions
I’d rather wait a week for a good answer
Than get the wrong one in a hurry, sir
So, take your time in the moment
Just take your time
You make my heart race (Race)
Butterflies, so alive, got me acting stupid
But I like it
You make my heart race (Race)
Hypnotized by your eyes, don’t know what we doing
But I like it
Last night (night, night, night) when you held my hand (held my hand)
A small gesture never felt so grand (so grand)
One kiss, and now I’m your man (I’m your man)
Scared but we still fall in
(So, I leave) So, I leave, and it’s undefined
(That’s okay) That’s okay, ‘cause you live on my mind
(Just lay) Just lay your body right next to mine
Don’t matter what we call it
I’d rather wait a week for a good answer
Than get the wrong one in a hurry, sir
So, take your time in the moment
Just take your time
You make my heart race (Race)
Butterflies, so alive, got me acting stupid
But I like it
You make my heart race (Race)
Hypnotized by your eyes, don’t know what we doing
But I like it
You make my heart race (Har-era-era-era-erat race)
You make my heart race (Har-era-era-era-erat race)
I don’t know where this thing is going (Ahh…)
Baby right now all I know is…
You make my heart race (Har-era-era-era-era-art race)
Butterflies, so alive, got me acting stupid
But I like it
You make my heart race (Har-era-era-era-era-art race)
Hypnotized by your eyes, don’t know what we doing
But I like it
You make my heart (you make my) race (you make my)
(You make my heart race) Butterflies, so alive, got me acting stupid
(You make my, you make my)
But I like it (You make my heart race)
You make my heart (you make my) race (you make my)
(You make my heart race) Hypnotized by your eyes don’t know what we doing
(You make my, you make my)
But I like it (heart race, heart race)

(I'm doing a video...)
(Oh my gosh!)
(Oh my gosh)
My heart is pure, but I can’t give you gold
But I give you memories that will outlive me evermore
Won’t promise you the world, but I promise I’ll do my best
We never expected this, but I would do it over and over
I would do it over and over again, yeah
I hope that you feel safe when I wipe your tears away
The body holds trauma in such a disgraceful way
So let it out, let it out, don’t be afraid
‘Cause I would never judge you and baby I would do it over
I would do it over and over again
You know I would
Oh, I would do it over
I would do it over and over again
You know I would
I can’t, I can’t repent what he did or what he said
Or how he treated your body in the moment
I can only promise that I’ll try my best
To replace the scars with glorious moments
(This is a plea to your heart baby)
(A plea to the stars nightly)
(Hold my hand)
(Together we will mend)
And I would do it over
I would do it over and over again
You know I would
Oh, I would do it over
I would do it over and over again
You know I would, you know I would…
(Over, I would do it over and over again)
You know I would…
(Over, I would do it over and over again)
I would do it over
I would do it over and over again
Oh, I would do it over
I would do it over and over again
Oh, I would do it over
I would do it over and over again

I’ve been hanging out in the archives
Can’t believe I’m here again
Still I lay low in the archives
Wonder if you do the same
My guess, she feels neglected, ooh
Your world was changing, it’s expected, yeah
Look at me blindly
Look at you searching (for the downfall)
Thought we were growing
Thought we were same page
I replay it over and over again
The words you say make me feel like it isn’t the end
I probably just made it up in my head
But I’m feeling defeated, deleted, yeah
You are not some runaway, not my enemy
Even though you’re far away you still have my heartbeat
I am not some get away, when you need some space
I could be more than your vacation babe
Look at me blindly
Look at you searching (for the downfall)
Thought we were growing
Thought we were same page
I replay it over and over again
The words you say make me feel like it isn’t the end
I probably just made it up in my head
But I’m feeling defeated, deleted
You bend time for everything under the sun
Till you bring dark skies for everyone
Like a storm I never thought would come
I’m feeling nothing

I don’t wanna wait for ya
Break my heart in two for ya, no
I don’t wanna say nothing for us to regret
I don’t wanna be there
I don’t wanna feel like you did me wrong
I don’t want no b-day friendship, the only time I’ll hear from you again
You living ‘round the corner I can’t even get a text back from you
I’m living by the water, you don’t even pretend you’ll come through
The city got you moving differently than the country…
Or maybe it’s just me
Maybe it’s just me…
(Toes in the beach, fire in the sand)
(Love never lasts) You don’t wanna see
(There it goes) Maybe it’s just me…

(Do something wrong) You don’t wanna see

(Me-e-e-e-e-ee-e-e, maybe it’s just)

(You don't wanna see)
Don’t give him all control
Don’t let him break your heart, no
‘Cause if he gon’ play that he gon’ have to hear from me and I don’t wanna go there
Don’t let him tear us down
Bury those years six feet underground
Yeah, we’ve been lovers before
But come on boy you can’t be that insecure
You living ‘round the corner
I can’t even get a text back from you
I’m living by the water
You don’t even pretend you’ll come through

Throw them high, let it rain down on me
Forever baby
Pick it off, like the crust floating at sea
Forever baby
Ooh fuck it all, fuck it all, fuck it all, fuck it all
I don’t wanna think about, think about you one more fucking morning
Put you on mute cause I don’t wanna be cordial anymore
How you gonna dust me off and leave me on the couch?
Tell me you don’t want me but you abusing my mouth
How you gonna diss me and then want me to do right by you?
Did you tell your little petty man how you touched me twice?
How you instigated the whole thing in the middle of July
Ooh, you ain’t no saint, you knew
Throw them high, let it rain down on me
Forever baby
Pick it off, like the crust floating at sea
Forever baby
Ehhh… text you unknown number; you finally respond twice
Ghost me like my mainline, I was gonna be nice
Till you played it off like you had a newer phone baby
Ahhh, left you 40 bones, you never bring ‘em back
You don’t really love me, no question, that’s a fact
I know that you got the same number since ’08
You create this mess and then you don’t know what to say
Throw them high, let it rain down on me
Forever baby
Pick it off, like the crust floating at sea
Forever baby
Forever baby…
Fuck it all, fuck it all, fuck it all

Take the lead, full control
I’ll take the backseat
Normally I wouldn’t do this
Tell me yes, tell me no
Just tell me something
Gotta be more to this convo
If you wanted to be over
The least that you could was tell me so
Then I’d maybe get some closure
Yeah, I’d hurt, but I’d make it work
I know you know
I know this isn’t simple
Stay or go, but don’t leave me here in limbo
You’re always hot and cold, and I’m in between
This path we’re treading isn’t open ended destiny
Feeling like you’ve nothing to prove, what a luxury
So don’t….
Leave me here in limbo
You open doors that I never asked to open
Exposing bones in your closet
There’s no problem that we couldn’t have solved if
You would only have let me
If you wanted to be over
The least that you could was tell me so
‘Cause I’m gonna need some closure
I’m prepared to hurt; I’ll make it work
I know you know
I know this isn’t simple
Stay or go, but don’t leave me here in limbo
You’re always hot and cold, and I’m in between
This path we’re treading isn’t open ended destiny
Feeling like you’ve nothing to prove, what a luxury
So don’t…. Leave me here in limbo
(I’m no steppingstone or some test for you to get through)
But if you turned back around, I’d still run to you
You’re always hot and cold, and I’m in between
This path we’re treading isn’t open ended destiny
Feeling like you’ve nothing to prove, what a luxury
So don’t….
Leave me here in
You’re always hot and cold, and I’m in between
This path we’re treading isn’t open ended destiny
Feeling like you’ve nothing to prove, what a luxury
So don’t….
Leave me here in limbo
You’re always hot and cold, and I’m in between
This path we’re treading isn’t open ended destiny
Feeling like you’ve nothing to prove, what a luxury
So don’t….
Leave me here in limbo
(Limbo, limbo, don’t leave me here in)
(Limbo, limbo) Don’t leave me
(Don’t leave me here in) Don’t leave me
(Limbo, limbo) Don’t leave me
(Don’t leave me here in)

Silent six months
Do we kiss or do we hug now?
The ease that we once wore
Was crippled when you closed your mouth
Three strikes, now I’m out of patience
I give and give but I’m always taken out of the picture
Cause you’ll always pick her
I’m losing my mind over the trying
I cannot breathe, I cannot fight this
I don’t wanna hide that I wanna hold you baby
When you blame it on distance it just feels like disinterest
I want more than a memory
Someone to understand me
Love that makes you glow
And leaves you overflowing
I keep my heart open
Steady, waiting, hoping
Expecting the worst
Darkest corner of my mind
When I met your girlfriend
She said you talk about me all the time
But somehow I’m the last one knowing
I give and give but there’s nothing to show for it
I wanna be there
And I don’t care if it’s squared
I’m losing my mind over the trying
I cannot breathe, I cannot fight this
I don’t wanna hide that I wanna hold you baby
When you blame it on distance it just feels like disinterest
I want more than a memory
Someone to understand me
Love that makes you glow
And leaves you overflowing
I keep my heart open
Steady, waiting, hoping
I won’t be making it easy
For these lovers to bleed me
Dry without a warning
Rain just keeps on pouring
But-I keep my heart open
Steady, waiting, hoping
I should be guarded as hell
Cause you don’t see how hard I fell
One sided conversation
Misguided communication
I should be guarded as hell
Cause you don’t see how hard I fell
But I keep my heart open
I’m steady, waiting, hoping
I want more than a memory
Someone to understand me
Love that makes you glow
And leaves you overflowing
Steady, waiting, hoping
I won’t be making it easy
For these lovers to bleed me
Dry without a warning
Rain just keeps on pouring
But-I keep my heart open
Steady, waiting, hoping

What a mess, eh?
He’s still not just saying the fucking thing, like
You just kinda want me around for… what?
What?!
What do you want from me?
Still didn’t answer the damn question
You like the idea of me, you want me around for when you need that, whatever that is from me
An escape from the rest of your fuckin’ life, you know
Whatever the fuck that I offer you is what you want when you want it
And when you don’t want it you wanna just… disappear
All of a sudden you have, you know, so much clarity, my dude?!
For a year and a half I’ve been asking you for clarity and all of sudden I send this one message
And in a day you have so much fucking clarity, so many fucking words, so much communication?!
Bye, buh-bye
He doesn’t know what he wants, it’s very obvious to me now
Or maybe you do, and you just can’t figure out your shit, but…
Nah dude, you done fucked up
You lost a good one bitch
So, I hope it’s good for you
Anyways, thanks for listening to my TED Talk
Umm, yeah…
No tears left to cry
No, its done, it’s over, it’s finito, buh-bye bitch

So, I guess this is where it ends again
Break my heart in two sentences
Of course, you wanna show him off, I get that
So, I stand here, and I’ll dance clear
No warning sign you just shut me out
You know I’m wondering what that’s about
Is he jealous of the songs I wrote for you?
Or worse still, this is your deal
How can I be happy seeing you two when you have my soul?
How could I play the role and not see that you’d always go?
I want you to have the world but I still want part of that road
This ain’t how it’s s’posed to go…
The virgo in me can’t help but think (You know I overthink things)
Was it all pretend or some lovers jinx? (Tell me was it just a jinx)
If I were “monog” would it change a thing for you?
So I stand here, but I can’t wait here
How can I be happy seeing you two when you have my soul?
How could I play the role and not see that you’d always go?
I want you to have the world but I still want part of that road
This ain’t how it’s s’posed to go…
(How can I, how can I, how can I)
(How can I, how can I, how can I)
(How can I, how can I, how can I)
(How can I, how can I, how can I)
No, no-oh
How can I be happy seeing you two when you have my soul?
How could I play the role and not see that you’d always go?
I want you to have the world but I still want part of that road
This ain’t how it’s s’posed to go…
