Mateless

Once you understand
You don’t have to question
Once you realize who you are
You don’t have to explain
Once you know your soul
Is not matched with another
Once you realize
You don’t have a soul mate
Chorus:
Then you are free (x3)
To be who you’re meant to be
Then you are free (x3)
To be who you are
Once you see the light
It comes into focus
Once you shed the top layer of your skin
It all feels brand new
Once you stop the chase
And you redraw the pattern
Once you quit living by the rules that never worked for you
(Chorus)
Bridge:
My soul is mateless
My heart is weightless
There’s no longer a hole in my chest
That needs to be filled
My soul is mateless
My heart is weightless
I have found the key
To being fulfilled
Don’t you dare shake your head
Don’t you don’t you don’t you
Don’t you dare shake your head
Don’t you don’t you don’t you
Don’t you dare shake your head
in pity
Don’t you dare shake your head
Don’t you don’t you don’t you
Don’t you dare shake your head
Don’t you don’t you don’t you
Don’t you dare shake your head
(Bridge)
I’m a big girl, living in a big city
And this is my story
Don’t you dare shake your head

10 Things
04:21
|
|||
|
What I love about me
Is my personality
I also love my sense of humor
And my honesty
What I love about me
Is that I am so creative
I can write and sing songs
And even poetry
Chorus:
What I love about me is that I didn't let you fool me
That I kept my eyes open and I didn't let you hurt me
What I love about me is my open door policy
You can leave any time I please
Get up off your knees
Cause these are the 10 things
That I love about me
What I love about me is that I am a survivor
When I fall I always bounce back
That's called resiliency
What I love about me is that I am independent
That I can stand alone with no man by me
(Chorus)
Bridge:
I really don't understand
When I went on a date with a man
He made me sit down and create this list of the ten things I love about me
Some type of self help bs
I guess he thought I was a damsel in distress
But what he didn't know is that I would go on
To pen a song like this
What I love about me adds up to more than what I'll mention
Don't want to lose your attention so I'll just keep it brief
What I love about me is that I can laugh at dating
Bad dates just lead me to creating
Don't take them seriously
(Chorus)

Live & Learn
04:59
|
|||
|
Live and love and love and learn and learn and lose and lose and cry
It hurts to love but love is what we want so much that we’d rather have it and cry
Hope and pray and pray and dream and dream and search and search and find
Once you’ve got love in your grasp hold on tight don’t let it leave you behind
The truth in life will set you free but first it just might piss you off
Embrace the changes and you’ll grow stronger
The day will come when you’ll feel strong enough to stand on your two feet
Then you won’t need me any longer
Live and love and love and learn and learn and lose and lose and cry
It hurts to love but love is what we want so much that we’d rather have it and cry
Hope and pray and pray and dream and dream and search and search and find
Once you’ve got love in your grasp hold on tight don’t let it leave you behind
Love is never guaranteed and even if you find someone
You still might end broken hearted
The flames that burned you with desire will consume everything you were
And you might end up right back where you started
Live and learn, and cry
Live and learn, and cry
Live and love and love and learn and learn and lose and lose and cry
It hurts to love but love is what we want so much that we’d rather have it and cry
Hope and pray and pray and dream and dream and search and search and find
Once you’ve got love in your grasp hold on tight don’t let it leave you behind

Karma Boy
03:59
|

It’s called karma boy, what you are suffering
Sounds like the same thing you did to me
I’m not laughing boy, maybe just a little bit
Not cause you’re hurting but cause you finally get it
Chorus:
That’s what karma is for
It knocks you on your ass when you’re least expecting it
Change your ways and she’ll leave you alone
But if you don’t karma makes you regret it
Karma won’t let you forget it
It’s called karma boy, when you are suffering
Just remember all the pain you caused me
You’re not laughing now, not even a little bit
Now that it’s your turn to hurt, you finally get it
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Forget all all the times
You made me cry
All of the tricks
All of the lies
Don’t look surprised
Now it’s your time
For Karma to teach you a lesson
Karma won’t let you
Forget it

Never Love Again
04:24
|
|||
|
I smashed your Game Cube to pieces just like you smashed my heart
How does that make you feel, how does that make you feel
You were young and dumb that doesn’t give you the
Right to be an ass
I don’t really think it does, I don’t really think it does
Chorus:
I may never love again
I may never trust another man
How does that make you feel
How does that make you feel
You tossed me to the curb like trash when you found yourself a younger girl
How’d you think that made me feel, How’d you think that made me feel
Maybe it’s my fault assuming you felt how I felt too
Made an ass of both me and you, both me and you
(Chorus)
Four years now
I still haven’t found
Someone to make me feel
The way you did
I know I was just your older fling
I didn’t mean a thing
But I still feel that sting
(Chorus)
I smashed your Game Cube to pieces just like you smashed my heart, how does that make you feel
