Death In Rio

ain’t where I thought I die
a warm night in paradise
but the truth can chill your bones
and that night my blood ran cold
I knew something wasn’t right
even through your beautiful lies
but what you left me untold
is now how my death unfolds
A Death in Rio
Rio De Janeiro
I lost my soul
On the bathroom floor
Of a Brazilian Disco
details are the devil’s charm
that night he was coming-on
his words I could not ignore
they dragged me down to the floor
Oh God, the party was jumping
music playing, but my heart’s stopping
you loved me so recklessly,
I loved you to death, I see
we were rockin’ in Rio
I hear the liquor talking to me, oh
saying you don’t give a damn about me, no
running round here like ya single
In VIP, me Katy and Rih
It’s R-I-P
to you and me
I’m crying ey-oh
You know dem bros ain’t loyal
A Death in Rio
Rio De Janeiro
I lost my soul
On the bathroom floor
Of a Brazilian Disco
And all the love I gave
Is 6 ft under, babe
An angel in paradise
yeah
A Death in Rio
Rio De Janeiro
I lost my soul
On the bathroom floor
Of a Brazilian Disco
And everybody say,
(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
ey, ey, ey,
And everybody say,
(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
ey, ey, ey, ey
I lost my soul on the floor
of a Brazilian Disco
(ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

He wonders why
There’s a wall he can’t climb
He said, if it were possible
Then he would try
But I know that I
Need to let him in
But he wan’t to go places
where you’ve only been
And I feel my heart strings calling
Pulling closer to him
drawing him
But my mind reminds me of one simple thing
Can he know me, console me
Love me the first did
Can he be everything I need
and help me forget
You were my first love
And sometimes I miss you so much
That you take up my whole thought
I tried so hard
But loving him, it gets so hard
And he’ll never know
He’s second in line
cus you’re my number one
my number one, my number one
he'll never know that he's second in line
to my number one, my number one
he'll never know that he's second in line
And he wonders when
I’ll come back to him
When I drift away from his arms
deep in the night
But he don’t understand
I’m doing the best that I can
And everyday I wake with memories
But I still try
I feel his heart keep breaking
Cus we’re cus to the end
I can’t stand
Keeping him locked in when
I can’t commit
Can he know me, console me
Love me the first did
Can he be everything I need
and help me forget?
You were my first love
And sometimes I miss you so much
That you take up my whole thought
I tried so hard
But loving him, it gets so hard
And he’ll never know
He’s second in line
cus you’re my number one
Number one, my number one
He’ll never know that he’s second in line
To number one my number one,
He’ll never know that he’s second in line

IOU

When did things change, cus we’ve
lost it somehow, tell me
Why good things never stay the same
One day we’re all in, the next falling out
Sparring lovers
we used to be on the same team
Now rivals and strangers
is never what we meant to be
IOU, is what it feels like
when your love just
don’t come through, through, through
Where you giving to get love
Want back what you spent love
but love don’t have no payback plans
we could be mad
we could be sad
But I don’t regret
Gave you the best love I ever had
I hear you counting every,
thing you’ve done for me
But a woman’s heart, if you have heard
is such a priceless
No discount on kisses,
No price tags on I miss you
leather bags and high heel shoes
they never count, when you want em to
IOU, is what it feels like
when your love just don’t come through, through, through
Where you giving to get love
Want back what you spent love
but love don’t have no payback plans
I know you’re mad
I know you’re sad
But I don’t regret
Gave you the best love I ever had
the best ever, the best ever,
the best, the best love I ever had x2
We lived and learned
we loved and lost
we pride ourselves on what it cost
we played with love
lost sight of us
we paid in full but never cashed
IOU, is what it feels like
when your love just don’t come through, through, through
Where you giving to get love
Want back what you spent love
but love don’t have no payback plans
I know I’m mad
I know I’m sad
But I don’t regret
Gave you the best love I ever had

Battle Cry

We are the army of lovers
We pledge allegiance to Venus
We are her warriors
Hear us crying out
Say ayo, yay, yay, ello
Many of us will fall
Leaving pieces of our hearts
But never discouraged
We keep marching on
Say ayo, yay, yay, ello
Sometimes we lose the battle
But still win the war
When you lift your voice
Like a mighty sword
In a Battlecry
When you can’t see over the horizon
And you’re all alone and in the dark
And you’ve got no fight left in your heart
So Raise it loud, let it out
Light the night, in your battle cry
Keep marching on
We’re the defiant and fearless
Let failing hearts everywhere hear us
Like a trumpet blowing
We’re crying out
Say ayo, yay, yay, ello
It’s not the road we chose,
But the love we seek
That we join with those
Who don't accept defeat
Hear our Battlecry
When you can’t see over the horizon
And you’re all alone and in the dark
And you’ve got no fight left in your heart
Raise it loud, let it out
Light the night, with your battlecry
And keep marching on
To those of you, who’ve given up the fight
We stand for you, we defend your right
Let down your guard, and just join with us
and life your voice in the name of love
So raise it loud and let it out
Light the night, your battle cry
Raise it loud, Let it out
We're gonna light the night
And keep marching on
Keep Marching On

Does the world feel small
full of itty bitty thoughts?
Does you hand feel too heavy
for their paper thin cause?
Do you wanna wanna run wild
and forced to walk gently?
Don’t dare speak up loud
Don’t you disturb the peace
Tried fitting in but you just won’t fit
The odd man out, the lone misfit
Tried bringing them around
But they just don’t see it
Instead they talking bout how
there’s no difference between us
But you’re a freak of nature
And they tryna tame ya
But you’re an earthquaker
And they can’t stand the shake up
Cus you are a giant, a giant, a giant, a giant, a giant
Are you scare to stand tall
cus you think it admits
You’ve been down for too long
And not living fearless
If you only seek the light
for the fame it brings
It’s really your light
That you’re exstinguishing
If you only want roses
Thrown at your feet
You give the power over
To what they think
So if they give you hell
cus your head is too high
Say you’re only here
Reaching for the sky
Pre:
But you’re a freak of nature
And they tryna tame ya
But you’re an earthquaker
And they can’t stand the shake up
Cus you are a giant, a giant, a giant, a giant, a giant
So when you gone wake-up
and show em just what you’re made of
(There’s no golden ticket, so if you want it go get)
Don’t be scared of the shake-up
Remember you’re the earthquaker
(They won’t’ admit it, but they know they need to feel it)
C’mon and say hell yeah, if you rocking with this
Hell Yeah (Hell Yeah)
It might be uneasy at first, but darlin believe me the force
Is so Mighty
You're a Giant
Yeah, yeah A Giant
Cus you are a giant, a giant, a giant, a giant, a giant
