    My roses are dead
    All my pills are blue
    The house is a wreck
    My head is too
    Constantly spinning
    Outrunning the minutes
    I'm just trying to breathe

    At the end of the day
    When my heartbeat's running low
    Don't have to say a thing
    Lean into you and fall like a domino
    Yeah, I fall like a domino
    Yeah, I fall like a domino

    Tattoos are faded
    I'm covering tracks
    I'm trying my hardest
    To not go back
    There's nothing to help
    And there's nobody else
    Who could pull me up out of this pain

    At the end of the day
    When my hеartbeat's running low
    Don't have to say a thing
    Lean into you and fall likе a domino
    Yeah, I fall like a domino
    Yeah, I fall like a domino
    Yeah, I fall like a domino

    Yeah, I fall like a domino
    Constantly spinning

    You said you're here for the summer
    I know everybody wants her
    Tugging on my Members Only jacket
    Put your number in my pocket
    Maybe we could be friends
    After the song ends
    Then you had my tongue up in a knot
    Underneath the skylit parking lot

    Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
    We took a ride in your dad's Corvette
    At sunset
    Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
    You kissed me before you flipped the cassette
    I'll never forget

    The way you grabbed me when Harry met Sally
    You made me laugh like an 80's movie
    You drove me crazy like
    Baby and Swayze
    Laying in the grass like an 80's movie
    Hopeless romantic, now we're dirty dancing
    I had the time of my life
    I know you're a mistake and I'm heading for heartbreak
    So I take your hand like an 80's movie

    Said you're gonna be leaving
    I didn't wanna believe it
    Standing there like a wallflower
    With my Ray-Bans on at the water tower
    I pretend that I don't care
    Run my hands through your Tom Cruise hair
    Drove us up to the top of the city
    Spray paint our names in the graffiti

    Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
    We took off in your dad's Corvette
    That ain't yours yet
    Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
    You kissed me before you flipped the cassette
    I'll never forget

    The way you grabbed me when Harry met Sally
    You made me laugh like an 80's movie
    You drove me crazy like Baby and Swayze
    Laying in the grass like an 80's movie
    Hopeless romantic, now we're dirty dancing
    I had the time of my life
    I know you're a mistake but I'm heading for heartbreak
    So I take your hand like an 80's movie

    Like an 80's movie
    Like an 80's movie

    Hopeless romantic, now we're dirty dancing
    I had the time of my life (Like an 80's movie)
    Like an 80's movie

    We said we wouldn't get jobs and we'd burn our bras
    We wouldn't turn out nothing like our moms
    I didn't, but I wish I did
    We all got drunk, and we all got laid
    Drove the Ford to the levy, said fuck the Chevrolet
    My friends grew up, and my friends had kids

    Now, I'm watching all the people walking down the streets
    And the losers kicking rocks look just like me
    I wish I was still sixteen
    And I didn't know the world was so damn mean
    I wish I was naive
    I wish I was sixteen

    Déjà vu, been here before
    I fucked you on this hotel floor
    I'm here again, but I'm all alone

    I'm watching all the people walking down the street
    And thе losers kicking rocks look just like me
    I wish I was still sixteen
    And I didn't know thе world was so damn mean
    I wish I was naive
    I wish I was sixteen

    I thought we'd grow old, and I'd take your name
    Spend Friday nights playing board games
    And tucking our kids in bed at home

    Now, I'm watching all the people walking down the street
    And the losers kicking rocks look just like me
    I wish I was still sixteen
    And I didn't know the world was so damn mean
    I wish I was naive
    I wish I was naive
    I wish I was sixteen

    We said we wouldn't get jobs and we'd burn our bras

    I didn't, but I wish I did

    You can mean well, you can still break me down
    I believe in hell 'cause baby I can feel it now
    Always hangin' on the edge, change of heart, turn to red
    Plantin' flowers in my hair, aimin' for love, hittin' me instead

    I never know when you're gonna stay or you're gonna leave
    Bullets are roses, always rainin' down on me
    Are you gonna give me paradise?
    Are you gonna shoot everything you see?
    I never know when it's guns and roses

    Chasin' after you feels a littlе dangerous
    I could give it all but it nevеr is enough
    Just when I think we're friends, all of your words turn to lead
    Plantin' flowers in my hair, aimin' for love, hittin' me instead

    I never know when you're gonna stay or you're gonna leave
    Bullets are roses, always rainin' down on me
    Are you gonna give me paradise?
    Are you gonna shoot everything you see?
    I never know when it's guns and roses

    So unpredictable
    So unpredictable
    I never know what I'm gonna get
    I never know what I'm gonna get

    Always hangin' on the edge, change of heart, turn to red
    Plantin' flowers in my hair, aimin' for love, hittin' me instead

    I never know when you're gonna stay or you're gonna leave

    Alanis, how did you ever keep your sanity?
    Alanis, lived out your pain through sweet profanity
    Your heart, it was bleeding
    When you told all your secrets
    And they showed no sympathy
    Alanis, how did you ever keep your sanity?

    Scream on the stage and let out the rage
    Till the lights go dark
    Fame is hollow, jagged pill's hard to swallow
    While they pick you apart
    Oh, Alanis

    Alanis, your anger was a medicine I didn't know I would need
    I'm finding there's not much difference between you and me
    You understand all the thoughts in my head
    That make my words extreme
    Alanis, you're the medicine I didn't know I would need

    Scream on the stage and let out the rage
    Till the lights go dark
    Fame is hollow, jagged pill's hard to swallow
    While they pick you apart

    One hand in my pocket
    Yeah, the truth is shocking
    When there's nothing to lose
    I know how to be brave
    Keep the demons away
    All because of you
    Oh, Alanis

    Alanis, how did you ever keep your sanity?

    Scream on the stage and let out your rage
    Till the lights go dark
    Fame is hollow, jagged pill's hard to swallow

    When I met you as young and as dumb and my hair was black
    Gettin' drunk at a bar downtown, quotin' Sylvia Plath
    I loved you so hard but you didn't seem to love me back
    Now I'm older and sober and my hair ain't black

    You're not closin' any bars down with me on a Thursday night anymore
    I'm still missin' how you looked inside a cigarette light standin' by the door

    We're said and done and now you're movin' 'cross the country
    You found someone, I'm still acceptin' that it's not me
    All the words we've ever said are bouncin' off the ceiling
    I try not to but I still have phantom feelings

    Well, you finally got another tattoo and I didn't even know
    I thought you'd tell me, hell I thought that I would go
    I bet hat northern air is cold when you're all alone
    You finally got another tattoo and I didn't even know

    You're not closin' any bars down with me on a Thursday night anymore
    But I'm still missin' how you looked inside a cigarette light standin' by the door

    We're said and done and now you're movin' 'cross the country
    You found someone, I'm still acceptin' that it's not me
    All the words we've ever said are bouncin' off the ceiling
    I try not to but I still have phantom feelings
    I still have phantom feelings

    We're said and done and now you're movin' 'cross the country

    You say I'm a psychopath
    Sittin' at the bar, drinkin' my coffee black
    You look at me and you start to laugh
    You say I am a psychopath

    You were born a wild child
    Ridin' down the road, messin' with my radio dial
    You give me a sinister smile
    You were born a wild child

    And I love you just because
    But sayin', "I love you" don't feel like enough
    One day I'll return to dust
    Was there life before there was us?
    Was there life before there was us?

    Can't I steal you away from here
    Drive somewhere wherе the view is clear
    All of your drеams are your parent's fears
    But can I steal you away from here?

    And I love you just because
    But sayin', "I love you" don't feel like enough
    One day I'll return to dust
    Was there life before there was us?
    Was there life before there was us?

    You might be the death of me
    Throw my ashes out in the sea
    Get drunk and give your eulogy
    You might be the death of me

    And I love you just because
    But sayin', "I love you" don't feel like enough
    One day I'll return to dust
    Was there life before there was us?
    Was there life before there was us?

    Was there life before, before there was us?

    You say I'm a psychopath
    Sitting at the bar, drinkin' my coffee black

    You used to send me love songs
    Now I don't wanna play them anymore
    Don't wanna play 'em no more
    We used to talk all night long
    Now you don't call me anymore
    You don't call me no more

    And I don't even know what happened
    And I don't really care

    You can get on the highway
    You could fly to the moon
    Go get drunk in some hotel
    Go to church or straight to hell
    You can leave me
    Try to unlove me
    But you can't outrun me
    You, you can't outrun me
    You

    Been here standing in your shadow
    It'll be me in that silhouette
    In that silhouette
    No mattеr how far you go
    You'll find me roaming 'round in your air
    In your every brеath

    You can get on the highway
    You could fly to the moon
    Go get drunk in some hotel
    Go to church or straight to hell
    You can leave me
    Try to unlove me
    But you can't outrun me
    You, you can't outrun me
    You

    And I don't even know what happened
    I don't really care
    No matter where you run to
    I'm already there

    You can get on the highway
    You could fly to the moon
    Go get drunk in some hotel
    Go to church or straight to hell
    You can leave me
    Try to unlove me
    But you can't outrun me
    You, you can't outrun me
    You, you can't outrun me

    You've been teasing me all this time
    But you can't change a one track mind
    You can't sway me, I'm too hard-headed
    When I'm set on something I'm gonna get it

    I know what I want
    I know what I want
    I know what I want
    And baby, it's you

    Can't you love me all night long?
    Don't care where we are, push me up against the wall
    Don't say no, just scream my name
    Don't hold back, I crave the pain

    I know what I want
    I know what I want
    I know what I want
    And baby, it's you

    I want you so bad

    I've been working really hard, I've been pulling all-nighters
    You text me from the yacht, you're sipping cider
    Don't worry, I ain't tipping off Insider
    But I'm drunk on Hemingway dreams
    Fitzgerald ain't got nothing on me (Nothing on me)
    Like the Bible, make you believe
    You were blind (You were blind), but you're gonna see

    Why the hell can't I meet somebody?
    All these people want to do is fuck someone at the party

    I won't lie, sometimes I miss our sex
    But I ain't about to go hit up an ex
    We don't talk anymore, and it feels so strange
    I know I ain't seen you in a while
    I forgot how you taste, I forgot how you smile
    I deleted your number anyway

    Why the hell can't I meet somebody?
    All these people want to do is fuck someone at the party, and
    I don't wanna steal peaches in the dark
    I wanna give someone my еntire heart
    Hey, hеy, hey, I wanna meet somebody

    Wake up, miss you, and repeat
    Some days I miss how we kiss, other days I wish we didn't meet
    I guess I'm still on the fence, yeah
    Maybe you're out there somewhere missing me
    Maybe someone somewhere is giving you what you need
    I guess it is what it is

    Why the hell can't I meet somebody?
    All these people want to do is fuck someone at the party, and

    Hey hey, I thought that you would call me
    Are you still kinda high
    Coming down from the Molly
    Oh, it's fine. I ain't on anyone's mind

    And I know that I gotta have faith
    But it's kinda fucking hard at the end of every day
    Stuck in my mind
    Like all the time

    And some nights when I'm feeling suicidal
    I could reach for the gun, I could reach for the bottle
    But it's great
    At least, now I'm getting paid

    And it goes on and on and on
    It goes on and on and on
    And suddenly you're gone

    I'm out in LA with a Beverly Hills hottie
    The kind that wants to go and sniff the pills off my body
    Only knows me 'cause I wrote the song about the hotel lobby
    But trust me, all my wilder days are behind me

    I'm laying in bed at the Chateau
    With someone I saw on TV but I barely even know
    Small talk for a second then I gotta leave
    Walk out separate, you're famous, you can't be seen with me

    It goes on and on and on
    It goes on and on and on
    And suddenly you're gone

    I don't know if I would call it luck
    But I, I didn't make the twenty-seven club
    I'm twenty-eight
    So, y'all ain't gotta dig my grave

    Yeah, it goes on and on and on
    It goes on and on and on
    It goes on and on and on
    It goes on and on and on

    It goes on and on and on
    It goes on and on and on
    And suddenly you're gone
