I just swallowed my pride, calling you tonight. There is no pleasure on this bad feeling inside. Miss heartbreaker, just gimme a chance. Wasted on battered sheets, all my tears falling down. Call me on my way back home, before i turns the corner. Miss heartbreaker, just gimme a chance. And i swallow again when i saw you walk around. Your hand tight to another, and that is not mine. Miss heartbreaker, just gimme a chance.

Take It Easy 03:16
When all your friends are faking and you feel that world comes down. When you're asking for some good times, but bad times grow up as weeds. When all this makes you helpless. Take it easy. Ballrooms full of people, that shaking, laugh and smile. When you drink but you're not thirsty, and the other seems thirsty too. When all this makes you helpless. Take it easy. Everyone is waiting for silver, gold and diamonds. It's not like i'm asking stuff i cannot afford. When all this makes you helpless. Take it easy.

Why do you change your mind every time we don't talk? I just wonder why do you let fall down all my hopes? Honey i'm waiting so long, but i won't give up. I'm only asking if it takes such a long time as you think. But now, please don't let me stay hanging all the time on the phone. Honey i'm waiting so long, but i won't give up. I've broke another glass, still waiting worn and torn for your call. I, i'd appreciate just an answer from the grave where i live. Honey i'm waiting so long, but i won't give up.

My friend Before me made that way . So you see, there’s something to know. It would be better to move away. Pains come late along this miles. Honestly, I’ve tried to do my best. But now I feel I have to go away. Broken, empty, so fucked up, and tired. Down in a hole I’ve drawn my way. Driving a car that won’t be mine. There’s a bleeding across the road. Broken, empty, so fucked up, and tired. I made my run now I move away.

Cold Outside 02:41
Once i was there walking up and down. She smiled every time i looked her in the eyes. The train roll on and i give in to be so carefree. Won't you please take me far from home? I want to feel the wind blow outside my door. And i forget all my troubles on this proud town. So, what it takes? it's not so cold outside. Drive a car that smells of good intentions. I'm not going so fast but i can feel the breeze. Baby, don't you wanna take me home to find out. So, what it takes? it's not so cold outside.

Kindness 03:19
Kindness moved away from here Even in the break of dawn I find a tear go down All the people say it's wrong Step out, i ain't coming home Even if you don't start It takes just some time Plans are just crumbs on the ground Garbage smelling like hope Takes some wishes from the grave Bury my fears and shine on It takes just some time Kindness moved away from here Even in the break of dawn Sparks jump in your eyes of fool All i know is it takes some time It takes just some time

Empty Word 02:43
Oh, tell me why do i miss you like i do. Wasting tears and breaking bones. Honey, i wish no one knows. That i feel just like a kid, who made mistakes but than he learned. Once i was a better man, but now i've lost my proud and joy, all i got, is an empty word. Oh, tell me why did i do the things i did. I feel handcuffed, it's not fine. Can you see what's going on? That i feel just like a kid, who made a mistake but than he learned. Once i was a better man, but now i've lost my proud and joy, all i got, is an empty word.

Strip off your good intentions, put them behind the door. Sit on the counter next to a jukebox out of work. And it's one time, two times, one more and i see. For every loving woman there are 5 men in the shit. Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome cherry lee. One of the girls you can buy with cigarettes and gin. And i'm watching, watching all the moves of her hips. I'd never thought to meet you, you're the devil with the heels. Oh lord please close my door. You gave me something i refuse to know. Six glasses all around that woman dressed in red. Her bag is sinking low, her lipstick says "i'm fit". And i'm falling, falling, i feel this weight on me. For every broken heart she start to drink a cup of tea. Oh lord please close my door. You gave me something i refuse to know.

Crowes 02:49
Crows knocking on your window. If you don't feel safe start to pray. All you have done , all you've seen before. Don't lie because everybody knows. Crows knocking on the window. Everybody knows but nobody talks. If you've cheated, if you've teased. Don't lie because everybody knows. Crows knocking on the window. They know all about you, they don't make mistakes. If you've cheated, if you've teased. Don't lie because everybody knows.
