The Last Word (EP)

Take Cover The Last Word (EP) Lyrics
1.The Whole Story

I was down on my luck*
Like the world was pulled from under me.
So take a seat and listen up,
Its time I told you everything
And I've got a lot to say.

I wish you could see me now,
Because I'm doing it for myself.
But you never believed in me so you left for someone else.
And I swore I'd hate you forever,
Yeah I kept it all inside,
Then I wrote it down on paper
So the world would know the whole story tonight.

It's funny how you think you know someone
After all you've been through together,
Then they act like a stranger.
I guess that's how it goes but I just wanna say,
That you don't know what you've been missing.
All I wanted was somebody to listen.
I did it for myself.


2.Resolution

And when the clock strikes twelve and your lips hit his*
I hope you both drop dead from your new years kiss,
I'll make a resolution remind me to forget you.

So on this late December evening,
Make a toast and take it down.
As your vision blurs and you're slurring your words,
I'll just smile while you fall to the ground.

Let it be known that from this moment,
You've been banished from my head.
So stay out of my way, I'll do the same,
Don't want to see your face or hear your name.

And when the clock strikes twelve and your lips hit his,
I hope you both drop dead from your new years kiss,
I'll make a resolution remind me to forget you.

I'd rather spend my days and sleep my nights,
Without the should been done and the should have done right.
I'll make a resolution remind me to forget you.
It's time to start moving on.

When you get lonely just keep looking,
There's no love left for you here.
Keep running it out,
Keep bringing me down,
Only I know what you're really about.

So stay out of my way,
I'll do the same,
Don't want to see your face or hear your name.
Stay out of my way,
And I'll do the same,
Don't want to see your face or hear your name.

And when the clock strikes twelve and your lips hit his,
I hope you both drop dead from your new years kiss,
I'll make a resolution remind me to forget you.

I'd rather spend my days and sleep my nights,
without the should been done and the should have done right.
I'll make a resolution remind me to forget you.

Now the ball drops down my heart drops through the floor.
I don't want to taste your lies anymore.
Can't move on, can't get over it.
It's a new year all alone.


3.Escape Artist

So wake up*
You're not the only one,
Looking for yourself, looking for yourself.

Girl you know I gotta run.
I hate to leave this way,
But you know that I am trying, I am trying.

I'm an Escape Artist and I can't get away from it.
(Does it hurt when I say it doesn't?)
I'm an Escape Artist and I can't get away from it.
(No one, no one)
No one can catch me.

She always said that I was the one she could count on.
(She can count on me)
But my heads no good with numbers and unreliable.
So I run, run from the ways that I used to know.
(Does it hurt when I say it doesn't)
So I run, run from the ways that I used to know.
I am trying, I am trying.

I'm an Escape Artist and I can't get away from it.
(Does it hurt when I say it doesn't?)
I'm an Escape Artist and I can't get away from it.
(No one, no one)
No one can catch me.

She always said that I was the one she could count on.
(She can count on me)
But my heads no good with numbers and unreliable.

I'm an Escape Artist and I can't get away from it, no!
I'm an Escape Artist and I can't get away from it, no!

I'm an Escape Artist and I can't get away from it.
(Does it hurt when I say it doesn't?)
I'm an Escape Artist and I can't get away from it.
(No one, no one)
No one can catch me.

I'm an Escape Artist and I can't get away from it.
(Does it hurt when I say it doesn't?)
I'm an Escape Artist and I can't get away from it.
(No one, no one)
No one can catch me.

She always said that I was the one she could count on.
(She can count on me)
But my heads no good with numbers and unreliable.
(No one can catch me).


4.The Last Word

Seven days in paradise*
Two eighteen year old lovers.
And from the way it felt like nothing else,
Who would've known they'd ruin each other?

She said 'Remember when, way back then,
When we'd kiss we'd catch on fire?'

He said 'Flash ahead to here and now,
He's a wreck and she's a liar.'

I will find a way to forget what happened between us,
Two years together shattered in pieces.
I will never get them back,
But I'm leaving with my heart intact.

I bet you thought you got the last word,
I'm counting four they go: 'YOU'RE NOT WORTH IT.'
Don't you dare do anything,
Just keep the years I'm leaving with my heart.

So, now she found some 'Mr. Right'
To keep her warm and safe at night.
Baby get down you know we call it 'The Rebound' baby get down.

I don't want to see you in the street,
We collide enough in my dreams.
When I can get to sleep that is,
I've got to find a way.

I will find a way to forget what happened between us,
Two years together shattered in pieces.
I will never get them back,
But I'm leaving with my heart intact.

I bet you thought you got the last word,
I'm counting four they go: 'YOU'RE NOT WORTH IT.'
Don't you dare do anything,
Just keep the years I'm leaving with my heart.

So take tonight and let your hair down
When you hit the town.
Take tonight and let your hair down.
I don't regret what happened between us,
I don't expect a thing from you.
I just want you off my mind forever.

Take tonight and let your hair down
(Don't you dare do anything)
Keep the years I'm leaving with my heart.
