"Like They All Did" Lyrics:
I feel I can't trust anyone. I watch my back cuz in the past I've been treated so bad.
Why did I think that you were different?
Why did I listen to what you said?
Why did I think you actually cared for me?
You just went and treated me like they all did.
You persuaded me to stop believing that everyone out there was gonna hurt me. Just like all the other liars you hurt me too.
Why did I think that you were different?
Why did I listen to what you said?
Why did I think you actually cared for me?
You just went and treated me like they all did.
You wore quite a mask. I couldn't see the bad. But then you told me I meant nothing to you, and I saw the real you at last.
Why did I think that you were different?
Why did I listen to what you said?
Why did I think you actually cared for me?
You just went and treated me like they all did.
Today when I saw you, you smiled with pride cuz you pulled the wool over my eyes. But I left you with a parting gift of advice: "Get over yourself and quit breathing lies!"
Why did I think that you were different?
Why did I listen to what you said?
Why did I think you actually cared for me?
You just went and treated me like they all did.

"Beautiful Agony" Lyrics:
I can see how that drop dead gorgeous beauty doesn't care about your feelings. And, you say you were born to please. Well that's why you're down on your knees beggin for forgiveness for what you didn't do wrong.
You're too blind to see. 'Cuz she's as gorgeous as can be. She's beautiful agony.
I can see how you wear a leash. You're her chauffeur and servant. And, when she looks at you with those big blue eyes, you'll give her whatever she wants. Even if that means losing all of your friends.
You're too blind to see. 'Cuz she's as gorgeous as can be. She's beautiful agony.
I can see how you've changed your clothes. You're not the same boy I used to know. And, you gave up all your favorite things. 'Cuz they embarrassed her. One day you will see, when she throws you away.
You're too blind to see. 'Cuz she's as gorgeous as can be. She's beautiful agony.
Get out get out get out while you can. Get out get out get out. Go be a free man. Get out get out get out while you can. Get out get out get out go be a free man.
You're too blind to see. 'Cuz she's as gorgeous as can be. She's beautiful agony. She's beautiful agony.

"Much to Your Dismay" Lyrics:
When I opened my eyes this morning, I thought I was dreaming when I heard you say that I wasn't worth being loved by you. I realized that this was reality when you packed your clothes, you took my ring, and left frantically. And you left me there to drown in my tears.
Much to your dismay, this heartache will not kill me. I will survive the pain. Even though you made me lose trust in everyone, I will grow stronger everyday. Everyday.
Two weeks have gone by, and I wish we were still together. But why should I want you when I was treated wrong? Are relationships supposed to be one-sided. Are they always supposed to be full of fighting? I don't think so. So why did I put up with that?
Much to your dismay, this heartache will not kill me. I will survive the pain. Even though you made me lose trust in everyone, I will grow stronger everyday. Everyday.
You said we'd move in together. You said you'd marry me and love me forever. Then you said, "I guess I changed my mind." According to you I had too much of an opinion. You didn't like that you couldn't push me around. All you wanted to do was own me.
Thanks for breaking my heart. You saved me. I've had time to see I was treated so badly.
Much to your dismay, this heartache will not kill me. I will survive the pain. Even though you made me lose trust in everyone, I will grow stronger everyday. Everyday. Everyday.

"One Woman Ain't Enough" Lyrics:
He's out to dinner with the most beautiful woman in the room. All the other men want her. She thinks she's got him wrapped around her finger, but she's wrong.
He's thinkin' 'bout when he's gonna go out with his other woman because
One woman ain't enough. He doesn't believe in love. He'll make you think. That he's all yours. But he'll be cheatin' before you can blink. Whoa. Whoa.
He's at the apartment of the latest of his flings. She thinks she's so lucky. She thinks she's found the man of her dreams, but she's wrong.
She doesn't know when he goes home he won't be alone because
One woman ain't enough. He doesn't believe in love. He'll make you think. That he's all yours. But he'll be cheatin' before you can blink. Whoa. Whoa.
He's got one woman on the phone another woman waiting at home, one woman in his head another woman in his bed, his hands on one woman's hips and he's thinkin' 'bout
another woman's lips.
One woman ain't enough. He doesn't believe in love. He'll make you think. That he's all yours. But he'll be cheatin' before you can blink. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

"R.I.P. Our Love" Lyrics:
When I'm tired, I don't wanna fall asleep because you haunt me. In my dreams, I see you immediately, but when I awaken, you're not with me.
Why oh why did we have to die? Rest in peace our love.
When I'm alone, I break down and cry. All that I long for is you by my side. I wanna hold you one more time. I wish we could start over in this life.
Why oh why did we have to die? Rest in peace our love.
I locked away our pictures.
I buried our memories.
But my heart still bleeds.
When I see you, I can't breathe, and I just want you to tell me. Do you regret that we gave up? Why wasn't our love strong enough?
Why oh why did we have to die? Rest in peace our love. Rest in peace our love.
Rest in peace our love.

"Worth the Wait" Lyrics:
Before you,
I was always fed
Lie after lie, after lie after lie.
So sick of it all,
I didn't wanna
Try. No, no, no try.
The love I dreamed of was
Way too surreal.
But since I met you,
I'm surprised at how I feel.
I found
Love, love, love.
I'm just so happy you're my
Love, love, love.
I can't believe that true
Love, love, love
really exists.
Before you,
I always
Cried and cried. I always cried.
So broken hearted,
And hopeless inside.
No, no, no hope.
I'd look in the mirror
And practice fakin' a smile.
But since I met you,
I've been laughin' this whole while.
I found
Love, love, love.
I'm just so happy you're my
Love, love, love.
I can't believe that true
Love, love, love
really exists.
All of my pain,
All of my tears,
And my hesitation to
Trust is gone.
You were worth the wait.
You were worth the wait.
Love, love, love.
I'm just so happy you're my
Love, love, love.
I can't believe that true
Love, love, love
really exists.
Love, love, love.
I'm just so happy you're my
Love, love, love.
I can't believe that true
Love, love, love
really exists.

"Goodbye" Lyrics:
I'm all alone, regretting what I didn't say. I wish I could've said, "Goodbye," today.
Black clouds in the sky will never pass me by. My heart's full of remorse. I'm so empty inside.
I'm all alone, regretting what I didn't say. I wish I could've said, "Goodbye," today.
Memories remind me of how life used to be. Thoughts of things I should've said will always haunt me.
I'm all alone, regretting what I didn't say. I wish I could've said, "Goodbye," today.
I'm missing you. I'm torn apart, but you'll always be in my heart. I can't wait 'til I dream, so I can see you smilin' at me.
I'm all alone, regretting what I didn't say. I wish I could've said, "Goodbye," today.
I'll never forget you. I'll always remember what it felt like to be complete.
I'm all alone, regretting what I didn't say. I wish I could've said, "Goodbye," today.
I'm all alone, regretting what I didn't say. I wish I could've said, "Goodbye."

"That's Life" Lyrics:
Laughin,' Talkin, Inseperable. The best of friends they were. Suddenly he began to feel nervous when he saw her. He lived for seeing her smile.
He wanted her, but he couldn't have her. So, he never said anything. He was afraid to talk about it, and now she's gone.
That's life. That's life. That's life. We try to find the right one, but we're wrong sometimes.
He settled down with someone else, who's not perfect for him but good enough. Sometimes he sits and stares out the window. Wonderin' what would've happened if he'd told her how he felt.
He wanted her, but he couldn't have her. So, he never said anything. He was afraid to talk about it, and now she's gone.
That's life. That's life. That's life. We try to find the right one, but we're wrong sometimes.
Lookin' lookin' lookin' for the right one. Lookin' lookin' lookin' for that right one. Would we ever know if we found them?
She walks alone down an empty road, thinkin' about him. Wonderin' if he felt the same way she did.
That's life. That's life. That's life. That's life. That's life. Oh that's life.

"Grow Up" Lyrics:
You pursued me. You said I'd be so happy if I gave you a chance.
In the beginning I was, but now you're not giving me enough.
I got needs that you're not fulfilling. I got needs, but you don't seem willing.
I want a man not a boy, not a boy, not a boy. I want a man not a boy, not a boy, not a boy. If you want a be with me then please be a man, or I'm gonna leave.
You've broken your promises time and time again. The main thing I've been asking for is a commitment.
I got needs that you're not fulfilling. I got needs, but you don't seem willing.
I want a man not a boy, not a boy, not a boy. I want a man not a boy, not a boy, not a boy. If you want a be with me then please be a man, or I'm gonna leave.
Waiting so sick of waiting for you to grow up. Grow up. Grow up.
Waiting so sick of waiting for you to grow up. Grow up. Grow up.
I want a man not a boy, not a boy, not a boy. I want a man not a boy, not a boy, not a boy.You musn't have wanted to be with me I see 'cuz you couldn't be a man. So I'm gonna leave.
Enjoy life without me.

"Missin' You" Lyrics:
Lyin' awake tonight and I
Wish I wouldn't think of you 'cuz I
Don't wanna be up all night
So I just close my eyes.
I try so hard not to think of you
But it's next to impossible to do.
My weakness is
I can't refrain from missin' you.
I gotta keep myself from missin' you.
How do I keep myself from missin' you?
I gotta keep myself from thinkin' of you all the time.
You're on my mind.
I miss you.
A month ago we said, "Goodbye."
I thought I was okay at the time,
But it was all just a big lie.
My love for you just won't die.
Thinkin' you'll be there when I wake up,
Makes me miss you more,
And it's all become too much.
I just hate that the thought of you won't go away.
I gotta keep myself from missin' you.
How do I keep myself from missin' you?
I gotta keep myself from thinkin' of you all the time.
You're on my mind.
I miss you.
I remember when I thought you weren't the one.
I remember when I thought I'd be happier when you were gone.
I remember when I thought it'd be easy to move on.
I was wrong. I was wrong. I was wrong.
I gotta keep myself from missin' you.
How do I keep myself from missin' you?
I gotta keep myself from thinkin' of you all the time.
You're on my mind.
I miss you.

"Temptation" Lyrics:
Obsessed with your body, obsessed with your mind.
Obsessed with your lips, obsessed with your eyes.
Longing for your hands on me, longing for you beside me.
But what about the times you didn't call? And what about the times you didn't care at all? And what about the times that I needed you but you were too self centered you didn't know what to do?
Fight the temptation that I feel inside. Fight the temptation of going back to you 'cuz it's just not right. Fight the temptation that I feel inside. Fight the temptation of going back to you 'cuz it's just not right.
In love with your smile, in love with your laugh.
In love with all the happy times that we had.
Longing for you to hold me close, longing for you to kiss me so.
But what about the times you made me sad? And what about the times you'd just stand and laugh? And what about the times that I needed you but you were too self centered you didn't know what to do?
Fight the temptation that I feel inside. Fight the temptation of going back to you 'cuz it's just not right. Fight the temptation that I feel inside. Fight the temptation of going back to you 'cuz it's just not right.
My body gets weak when I see you. That's what your poison does to me. But I won't let you no. I won't let you no, no. I won't let you win.
Fight the temptation that I feel inside. Fight the temptation of going back to you 'cuz it's just not right. Fight the temptation that I feel inside. Fight the temptation of going back to you 'cuz it's just not right.
Fight the temptation that I feel inside. Fight the temptation of going back to you 'cuz it's just not right. Fight the temptation that I feel inside. Fight the temptation of going back to you 'cuz it's just not right.
'Cuz goin back to you is just not right.
