Song Lyrics

I can't seem to make you smile Anymore, anymore
          What happened to the dresses You wore before, before
          I see I see
          You dancing tonight
          Under his street light
          I see I see
          You drifting away from me
          Ma Cherie
          Time wont be enough
          To make you even fall in love with me Prefer the needle to me
          Want to hold you in my arms
          But you want nothing to do with me Ma Cherie
          I can't seem to make you love me Today oh today
          I just want to see that frown
          Go away go away
          I see I see
          You dancing tonight
          Under his street light
          I see I see
          You drifting away from me
          Baby
          Ma Cherie
          Time wont be enough
          To make you even fall in love with me Prefer the needle to me
          Want to hold you in my arms
          But you want nothing to do with me It's the little little things
          That you do baby
          That make me so damn crazy
          I want to see
          Every time you go away from me
          Oh when you walked away
          I'll always remember that day Couldn't love me anymore
          She just walked at the the door
          I just need her to stay
          Ma Cherie
          Time wont be enough
          To make you even fall in love with me Prefer the needle to me
          Want to hold you in my arms
          But you want nothing to do with me It's the little little things
          That you do baby
          That make me so damn crazy
          I want to see
          Every time you go away from me

It's hard for girls like us
          We don't know who we trust
          Not even the ones we love
          'Cause they don't know
          Stuck here
          Stuck here in these waters
          So sick to my stomach
          Is anybody there?
          Red lights
          Red lights in the darkness
          Everyone's so heartless
          Does anybody care?
          It's so hard to explain
          With your heart in a cage
          Only whisper but you wanna shout
          'Cause the second you wake
          Too much pressure to take
          Every part of you wants to cry out
          It's hard for girls like us
          We don't know who we trust
          Not even the ones we love
          'Cause they don't know
          Try to numb this pain
          'Cause we don't wanna get hurt again
          Left alone out in the rain
          They don't know
          Mirror, mirror on the wall
          I don't see beautiful
          Staring back at me
          Watching, watching my heart bleed out
          Trying not to freak out
          It's hard for girls like us
          We don't know who we trust
          Not even the ones we love
          'Cause they don't know
          Try to numb this pain
          'Cause we don't wanna get hurt again
          Left alone out in the rain
          They don't know
          It's hard for us
          For girls like us
          Girls like us
          They don't know
          It's hard for us
          For girls like us
          Girls like us
          They don't know
          So, oh
          And the worst part is
          When they smile like this
          And it hits me hard
          Hits me hard
          Tryna play it cool
          But inside I'm bruised
          And it breaks my heart
          Breaks my heart
          It's hard for all of us
          We don't know who we trust
          Not even the ones we love
          They don't know
          Try to numb this pain
          'Cause we don't wanna get hurt again
          Left alone out in the rain
          They don't know
          It's hard for us
          For girls like us (girls like us)
          Girls like us
          They don't know
          It's hard for us (oh no)
          For girls like us (girls like us)
          Girls like us
          They don't know

Boys they're handsome and strong
          But always the first to tell me I'm wrong
          Boys try to tame me, I know
          They tell me I'm weird and won't let it go
          No, I'm fine, I'm lying on the floor again
          Cracked door
          I always want to let you in
          Even after all of the shit, I'm resilient
          Cause a princess doesn't cry (no)
          A princess doesn't cry (no-o)
          Over monsters in the night
          Don't waste our precious time
          On boys with pretty eyes
          A princess doesn't cry (no)
          A princess doesn't cry (no-o)
          Burning like a fire
          You feel it all the time
          But wipe your teary eyes
          Cause princesses don't cry
          Don't cry, don't cry oh
          Don't cry
          Don't cry oh
          Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, oh
          Cause princesses don't cry
          Girls so pretty and poised
          And soft to the touch
          But God made me rough
          Girls, so heavy the crown
          They carry it tall
          But it's weighing me down
          No, I'm fine, I'm lying on the floor again
          Cracked door
          You're only going to let them in once
          And you won't come undone
          Cause a princess doesn't cry (no)
          A princess doesn't cry (no-o)
          Over monsters in the night
          Don't waste our precious time
          On boys with pretty eyes
          A princess doesn't cry (no)
          A princess doesn't cry (no-o)
          Burning like a fire
          You feel it all the time
          But wipe your teary eyes
          Cause princesses don't cry
          Don't cry, don't cry oh
          Don't cry
          Don't cry oh
          Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, oh
          Cause princesses don't cry
          I'm fine, I won't waste my time
          Keep it in a jar, and we'll leave it for the next one
          Yeah, I'm fine, I won't waste my time
          Keep it in a jar, and we'll leave it for the next one
          Yeah, I'm fine
          I'm lying on the floor again
          Cause a princess doesn't cry (no)
          A princess doesn't cry (no-o)
          Over monsters in the night
          Don't waste our precious time
          On boys with pretty eyes
          A princess doesn't cry (no)
          A princess doesn't cry (no-o)
          Burning like a fire
          You feel it all the time
          But wipe your teary eyes
          Cause princesses don't cry
          Don't cry, don't cry, oh
          Don't cry
          Don't cry, oh
          Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, oh
          Cause princesses don't cry...

I y/n do solemnly swear not to off myself
          Think about offing myself
          Or consider thinking about offing myself
          Without reaching out for help
          After listening to this song
          
          And sometimes I see her on the sidewalk
          Biking on the wet chalk
          Spelling out their names
          And I feel insane
          Cause I know it's just a game
          That I'm playing with my brain
          I don't see her, but I see her
          And I know it isn't real
          But I fake it anyway
          Pull a smile and wave
          Nod and look away
          Wait for it to fade
          But it happens all the time
          And people say it's fine
          My roommates says they're killing us
          But they are killing themselves
          And I'm surrounded by the...
          
          Dead girls! on the road
          Dead girls! in my phone
          Dead girls! Where do they go?
          All of the fucking
          Dead girls! all around
          Dead girls! in my town
          Dead girls! I wanna know
          Dead girls! Where do they go?
          
          And it'd be wrong to say I miss him
          I didn't really know him
          I just have a couple friends who say they knew him well
          They'd seemed like something special
          Really don't they all?
          I guess before you're gone it can be kinda hard to tell
          
          I broke the fucking news
          It wasn't mine to break
          I cried and I was empty and I didn't know what to say...
          
          Dead kid! with my friends
          Dead kid! home again
          Dead kids! I wanna go
          With the dead girls in the sky
          Dead girls in your eyes
          Dead girls! Where do they go?
          
          But it's fucking
          Dead girls all around!
          Dead girls in my town!
          Dead girls! Where do they go?
          I wanna be a...
          Dead girl like my friends
          Dead girl home again
          Dead girls! I don't know

Weep for yourself, my man
          You'll never be what is in your heart
          Weep, little lion man
          You're not as brave as you were at the start
          Rate yourself and rake yourself
          Take all the courage you have left
          And waste it on fixing all the problems
          That you made in your own head
          But it was not your fault but mine
          And it was your heart on the line
          I really fucked it up this time
          Didn't I, my dear?
          Didn't I, my-
          Tremble for yourself, my man
          You know that you have seen this all before
          Tremble, little lion man
          You'll never settle any of your scores
          Your grace is wasted in your face
          Your boldness stands alone among the wreck
          Now learn from your mother or else
          Spend your days biting your own neck
          But it was not your fault but mine
          And it was your heart on the line
          I really fucked it up this time
          Didn't I, my dear?
          But it was not your fault but mine
          And it was your heart on the line
          I really fucked it up this time
          Didn't I, my dear?
          Didn't I, my dear?
          But it was not your fault but mine
          And it was your heart on the line
          I really fucked it up this time
          Didn't I, my dear?
          But it was not your fault but mine
          And it was your heart on the line
          I really fucked it up this time
          Didn't I, my dear?
          Didn't I, my dear?

White is the Army and Black the Baron
          That want to restore the old Tsar's throne
          But from the taiga to British seas
          The people's Red Army's at the peak of strength!
          
          Chorus:
          Let the Red Army
          Take in its journey
          A bayonet with its hardened hand,
          And now we must all
          Unstopped by walls
          Go into one last deadly stand!
          
          II
          Oh people's Red Army, let's march on our way!
          The Rev-Mil-Council calls us into the fray.
          For from the taiga to British seas
          The people's Red Army's at the peak of strength!
          
          Chorus
          
          III
          Flames and fires worldwide we seek to ignite,
          Razing down churches and prisons in tide.
          For from the taiga to British seas
          The people's Red Army's at the peak of strength!

Would you have freedom from Wage slavery,
          Then join in the grand Industrial band;
          Would you from mis'ry and hunger be free,
          Then come, do your share, like a man.
          
          (Chorus)
          There is pow'r there is pow'r in a band of workingmen,
          When they stand hand in hand,
          That's a pow'r, that's a pow'r
          That must rule in every land—
          One Industrial Union Grand.
          
          Would you have mansions of gold in the sky,
          and live in a shack, way in the back?
          Would you have wings up in heaven to fly,
          And starve here with rags on your back?
          
          If you've had 'nuff of the "blood of the lamb"
          Then join in the grand industrial band;
          If, for a change, you would have eggs and ham,
          Then come, do your share, like a man.
          
          If you like sluggers to beat off your head,
          Then don't organize, all unions despise.
          If you want nothing before you are dead,
          Shake hands with your boss and look Wise.
          
          Come, all ye workers, from every land,
          Come, join in the grand industrial band;
          Then we our share of this earth shall demand.
          Come on! Do your share, like a man.

I got handed an Ayn Rand sandwich
          Straight from the can, it tasted so bland
          I asked a lass to pass me a glass
          Of Engels' Conditions of the Working Class
          Right away they dragged me to the committee
          To explain my un-American activity
          They're gonna see they made a mistake
          If they'd only let me play my mixtape
          I'm not partial to the martial
          Or the plutocrats, in their beaver hats
          And the fascists have the outfits
          But I don't care for the outfits
          What I care about is music
          And the communists have the music
          I hear a melody
          And just as suddenly
          I know who I'm supposed to be
          I don't need a rationale
          To sing "The Internationale"
          I only need to plug in the headphone jack
          So I can listen to my backing track
          I'm not jealous of the zealous
          Or anarchics with guitar picks
          And the fascists have their outfits
          But I don't care for the outfits
          What I care about is music
          And the communists have the music
          Yes, the communists have the music
          Oh, the communists have the music
          I hear a melody
          And just as suddenly
          I know who I'm supposed to be
          I'm not partial to the martial
          Or the plutocrats, in their beaver hats
          And the fascists have the outfits
          But I don't care for the outfits
          What I care about is music
          And the communists have the music
          Yes, the communists have the music
          Oh, the communists have the music
