Pink Tie (Album: "Heart Flip" (2012)) (THIS WILD LIFE LYRICS)

.

.

Got up and left without a warning.
A pregnant woman, on Easter morning.
You were never anything to miss.
Cause to me you did not exist.
But for that woman and that boy you left, I'm saying this.

I'll wear the bright pink tie you wore that day
I'll make the promises you failed to make
I'll be the man you'll never be
And you won't be around to see
The man my Mother made of me
With love my Brother set me free
I'll be the man you'll never be
And you'll have no part of this family

Your body's failing, heart is breaking
But you're too far gone now, you're not worth saving
You never put yourself aside, you just keep bringing seed to life
So I won't be at your bedside to watch you close your eyes and die
So I won't be at your bedside to hold your hand and say Goodbye

I thought I'd make your proud
But you're nowhere to be found
Maybe you'll live it down
The day that you skipped town.

That Was Us (Album: "Just As I Am" (2014)) (BRANTLEY GILBERT LYRICS)

.

.

I got my mail today, this economy sucks
A buncha bills I can't pay, I guess they're sh*t outta luck
But there was one from an old friend, brought back memories
A black and white from way back when
Was hard to believe that was us

That was us ridin' dirt roads
Shootin' buckshot at signs
Drinkin' beer we just stole
Passin' jugs full of shine
Even them girls were one of them boys
Singin' old country gold
'Til we all lost our voice
That was us

Every once in a while we'll catch a game or a race
But catchin' up on old times turns into hell that we raised
We'll start re-tellin' stories and lies we've rehearsed
About the girls we made out with and how badass we were
That was us, that was us

That was us down in Panama cruisin' the strip
In the bed of my truck tossin' beads and talkin' sh*t
Shotgunnin' beer, playin' pong and flip cup
We never lost senior year, we tore them son b*tches up
That was us
That was us

And we'll always remember those of us that we miss
We'll always be brothers and we'll never forget

But that was us that we carried, with tears in our eyes
When the rest of us are buried, we're throwin' down in the sky
So raise a glass to the memories that won't ever die
Here's to friends, here's to family and one hell of a time
Yeah, here's to us
Here's to us
Yeah here's to us
Yeah here's to us

This Is It (Compilation: "Xscape" (2014)) (MICHAEL JACKSON LYRICS)

.

.

One, Two, Three, Four

This is it, here I stand
I'm the light of the world, I feel grand
Got this love I can feel
And I know yes for sure it is real

And it feels as though I've seen your face a thousand times
And you said you really know me too yourself
And I know that you have got addicted with your eyes
But you say you gonna live it for yourself

Oh

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on baby just understand

This is it, I can say,
I'm the light of the world, run away
We can feel, this is real
Every time I'm in love, that I feel

And I feel as though I've known you since a thousand years
And you tell me that you've seen my face before
And you said to me you don't want me hanging round
Many times wanna do it here before

Oh yeah

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on baby just understand

This is it, I can feel
I'm the light of the world, this is real
Feel my song, we can say
And I tell you feel that way

And I feel as though I've known you for a thousand years
And you said you want some of this yourself
And you said you want to go with me all the while
And I know that it's really true myself

Oh yeah

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on please baby understand

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on baby please understand

Oh yeah

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan

Bullet In The Brain (Album: "Turn Blue" (2014)) (THE BLACK KEYS LYRICS)

.

.

Bullet in the brain
I prefer than to remain the same
Bullet in the brain
I prefer than to remain the same

Looking back on where we used to be
Everything was clear, still I refuse to see
Hearts began to burst
The diamond turned to dust
You made me talk the pain all out of me

Bullet in the brain
I prefer than to remain the same
Bullet in the brain
I prefer than to remain the same

I know I share the blame for what's in store
I was in the wrong but [?] anymore
I let you use my gifts
To back your lying wits
I'll never know just what I did it for

Bullet in the brain
I prefer than to remain the same
Bullet in the brain
I prefer than to remain the same

It's Up To You Now (Album: "Turn Blue" (2014)) (THE BLACK KEYS LYRICS)

.

.

You wanted to love, but you didn't know how
That's okay, it's up to you now
It got so bad to where I wouldn't allow
But no more, it's up to you now

Let you go so you could go...
Go to town
It's up to you now
It's up to you now

You smoke cigarettes and you act like a clown if you want
It's up to you now
You do what you like and now you wonder why they're gone
It's up to you now

Let you go so you could go...
Let you go so you could go...
It's up to you now

Waiting On Words (Album: "Turn Blue" (2014)) (THE BLACK KEYS LYRICS)

.

.

I'm waiting on words
I'm waiting on the one I've been thinking of
And hoping you heard
I'm waiting on the words

Oh, goodbye
I heard you were leaving
Won't try changing your mind
Goodbye, Don't know where you're going
The only thing I really know
My love for you is real, I

I leave it behind
No longer will I want for a single thing
Stay true in my mind
You have to let 'em in

Oh, goodbye
I heard you were leaving
Won't try changing your mind
Goodbye, don't know where you're going
The only thing I really know
My love for you is real, I

10 Lovers (Album: "Turn Blue" (2014)) (THE BLACK KEYS LYRICS)

.

.

When I hear them use your name
I get all choked up inside
It's not only from the shame
It's like 10 different lovers died
Except you're still just a mile away
But there's nothing left to say

Don't leave us not in love again
Cause we might break instead of bend
I felt a little strain in the pouring rain
It washed away most everything

If I found another love
They must be forever true
Cause if someone breaks this heart
Your old man right here is through
Heaven just seems so far away
When there's nothing left to say

Don't leave us not in love again
Cause we might break instead of bend
I felt a little strain in the pouring rain
It washed away most everything
[x2]

Don't leave us not in love again
The little girl can't comprehend
She had another dream that her mama's gone
She's alright, but you're all wrong

In Our Prime (Album: "Turn Blue" (2014)) (THE BLACK KEYS LYRICS)

.

.

Pour me down the drain, I disappear
Like every honest thing I used to hear

Like every lover hovers in my mind
We made our mark when we were in our prime
The house it burned, but nothing there was mine
We had it all when we were in our prime

Every now and then I see your face from way back when and I explode
Friends no longer egg me on, they bullshit serenade me like it's gold, how then we're told
I'm praying for some laughter, maybe joy for ever after till I die
I'm hungry for a change, I got my fill of other's pain, I realized
Opened my eyes

Like every lover hovers in my mind
We made our mark when we were in our prime
The house it burned, but nothing there was mine
We had it all when we were in our prime
[x2]

The Baddest Man Alive (with RZA) (Album: "Turn Blue" (2014)) (THE BLACK KEYS LYRICS)

.

.

[Dan Auerbach]
I can take the pitchfork, from the devil
Keep a super suit like I'm incredible
From the deep blue sea, to the dark blue sky
I'm the baddest man alive
I'll grab a crocodile by it's tail
Handcuff the judge and put the cops in jail
Make the meanest woman break down and cry
I'm the baddest man alive

[Chorus: Dan Auerbach]
I'm the baddest man alive
I'll take no measure, and I'll take no drive
Sometimes I feel like I can fly
I'm the baddest man alive
I'm the baddest man alive

[RZA]
Not bad meaning bad, but I'm bad meaning good
Say my name three times, and you knock on wood
Candyman hooks, I'll terrorize your hood
Flashing macs on a cop, the way a gangster should
I snatch food from the mouth of a tiger
Take a gasoline bath, then I'll walk through fire
Bear hug a grizzly, suck milk from a titty
Take the sergeant hat from his head and use it for a Frisbee
Spit in a crocodile's face, have a menage a trois with two female apes
Then sleep in the barrel of butcher knives
I drink honey, straight from the bee hive
Bungee jumping off the Empire State, butt naked
Rollerblade across the Golden Gate, butt naked
With the baddest man alive, and I don't plan to die
When the grim reaper come out, look him right in his eye
I'll bust off in the face in the witch of the east
Tell a great white shark to go and brush his teeth
Hehehe, I'm the man who stole the golden fleece
And I'll date rape Beauty right in front of the Beast
The baddest man alive, and I don't plan to die
Come on, somebody

[Chorus]
