The Pretty Reckless : Light Me Up

Lyrics

1. MY MEDICINE

Somebody mixed my medicine
Somebody mixed my medicine

You hurt where you sleep
And you sleep where you lie
Now you're in deep and
now you're gonna cry
You got a woman to the left
and a boy to the right
Start to sweat so hold me tight

Somebody mixed my medicine
I don't know what I'm on
Somebody mixed my medicine
But baby it's all gone
Somebody mixed my medicine
Somebody's in my head again
Somebody mixed my medicine again, again

I'll drink what you leak
And I'll smoke what you sigh
Straight across the room with a look in your eye
I got a man to the left and a girl to the right
Start to sweat so hold me tight

Somebody mixed my medicine
I don't know what I'm on
Somebody mixed my medicine
But baby it's all gone
Somebody mixed my medicine
Somebody's in my head again
Somebody mixed my medicine again, again

There's a tiger in the room
and a baby in the closet
Pour another drink mom
I don't even want it
Then I turn around and think I see
someone that looks like you

You hurt where you sleep
You sleep where you lie
Now you're in deep and
now you're gonna cry
You got a woman to the left
and a boy to the right
Start to sweat so hold me tight

Somebody mixed my medicine
I don't know what I'm on
Somebody mixed my medicine
But baby it's all gone
Somebody mixed my medicine
Somebody's in my head again
Somebody mixed my medicine
again (x8)

Somebody mixed my medicine (x3)
Somebody's in my head again
Somebody mixed my medicine
Again (x3)


2. SINCE YOU'RE GONE

Since you hide, since you steal
Since you hate everything I feel
Since you cheat, since you lie
Since you don't wanna try things I wanna try

Since you been gone
My life has moved along quite nicely actually

Got a lot more friends and I don't have to pretend
Since you're gone, since you're gone

Since you're not what I want
You can take everything I've got
Take the seat, take the drive
If I say I love you, I am a liar

Since you been gone
My life has moved along quite nicely actually

Well, meet my lover Gin and I don't have to pretend
Since you're gone, since you're gone

I've been looking for a new direction, anyway
I've been thinkin' bout my own protection, instead

Now that you're gone my life has moved along
Now that you're gone my life has moved along
Now that you're gone my life has moved along
Now that you're gone

Since you hide, since you steal
Since you hate everything I feel
Since you cheat, since you lie
Since you don't wanna try things I wanna try

Since you been gone
My life has moved along quite nicely actually

Quite nicely actually, quite nicely actually
Quite nicely actually, quite nicely actually
Quite nicely actually, quite nicely, thanks for asking


3. MAKE ME WANNA DIE

Take me, I'm alive
I never was a girl with a wicked mind
But everything looks better when the sun goes down
I had everything, opportunities for eternity
And I could belong to the night

Eyes, your eyes
I can see in your eyes, your eyes

You make me wanna die
I'll never be good enough
You make me wanna die
And everything you love
Will burn up in the light
And everytime I look inside your eyes
You make me wanna die

Taste me, drink my soul
Show me all the things that I shouldn't know
When there's a new moon on the rise
I had everything, opportunities for eternity
And I could belong to the night

Eyes, your eyes
I can see in your eyes, your eyes
Everything in your eyes, your eyes

You make me wanna die
I'll never be good enough
You make me wanna die
And everything you love
Will burn up in the light
And everytime I look inside your eyes
(I'm burning in the light)
You make me wanna die

I would die for you, my love, my love
I would lie for you, my love, my love
(You make me wanna die)
And I would steal for you, my love, my love
(You make me wanna die)
And I would die for you, my love
My love will burn up in the light
And everytime I look inside your eyes
(I'm burning in the light)
Look inside your eyes
(I'm burning in the light)
Look inside your eyes
You make me wanna die


4. LIGHT ME UP

Does what I'm wearing seem to shock you?
Well that's okay
'Cause what I'm thinking about you
is not okay
Got it on my mind to change my ways

But I don't think I can be anything other than me
I don't think I can be anything other me

Do you have a light, can you make me feel alright
There's plenty of light to go around
If you think it's right when you hit me to the ground
Well light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down

Does what I'm saying seem to haunt you?
Well that's okay
'Cause what I'm saying about you
Is not okay
Got it on my mind to change my ways

But I don't think I can be anything other than me
I don't think I can be anything other than me

Do you have a light, can you make me feel alright
There's plenty of light to go around
If you think it's right when you hit me to the ground
Well light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down

Light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down

Does what I'm taking seem to bother you?
Well that's okay
'Cause I can take it all without you
And I'm okay
Got it on my mind to change my ways

But I don't think I can be anything other than me
I don't think I can be anything other than me

Do you have a light, can you make me feel alright
There's plenty of light to go around
If you think it's right when you hit me to the ground
Well light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down

Light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down
Light me up when I'm down


5. JUST TONIGHT

Here we are and I can think from all the pills you made
Start the car and take me home
Here we are and you're too drunk to hear a word I say
Start the car and take me home

Just tonight I will stay
And we'll throw it all away
When the light hits your eyes
It's telling me I'm right
And if I, I am through
It's all because of you
Just tonight

But here I am and I can't seem to see straight
But I'm too numb to feel right now
And here I am watching the clock that's ticking away my time
I'm too numb to feel right now

Just tonight I will stay
And we'll throw it all away
When the light hits your eyes
It's telling me I'm right
And if I, I am through
It's all because of you
Just tonight
Just tonight

Do you understand who I am
Do you wanna know
Can you really see through me now
I am about to go

But just tonight I won't leave
I'll lie and you'll believe
Just tonight I will see
It's all because of me

Just tonight I will stay
And we'll throw it all away
When the light hits your eyes
It's telling me I'm right
And if I, I am through
It's all because of you
Just tonight

It's all because of you
Just tonight (x4)


6. MISS NOTHING

I'm miss autonomy, miss nowhere
I'm at the bottom of me
Miss androgyny, miss don't care
What I've done to me

I am misused, I don't wanna do
Be not your slave
Misguided, I mind it, I'm missin' the train

And I don't know where I've been
And I don't know what I'm into
And I don't know what I've done to me

And as I watch you disappear into the ground
My one mistake was that I never let you down
So I'll waste my time, and I'll burn my mind
On miss nothing, miss everything

I'm miss fortune miss so soon
I'm like a bottle of pain
Miss matter you had her
Now she's goin' away

I'm misused, misconstrued
I don't need to be saves
Miss slighted, I mind it
I'm stuck in the rain

And I don't know where I am
And I don't know what I'm into
And I don't know what I've done to me

And as I watch you disappear into the ground
My one mistake was that I never let you down
So I'll waste my time, and I'll burn my mind
On miss nothing, miss everything
Miss stealing, Miss everything

And as I watch you disappear into the head
Well, there's a man who's telling me I might be dead
So I'll waste my time, and I'll burn my mind
So I'll waste ma time, and I'll burn my mind
On Miss Nothing, Miss Everything!


7. GOIN' DOWN

Hey there, Father
I don't wanna bother you
But I've got a sin to confess
I'm just sixteen if you know what I mean
Do you mind if I take off my dress?

Don't know where to start
Let me get to the good parts
Might wanna cross up your legs
I've got envy, I've got greed, anything that you need
And I'm not above having to beg
There was this boy who tore my heart in two
I had to lay him eight feet underground

All I need is someone to save me
Cause I am goin' down
And what I need is someone to save me
Cause I am goin' down, all the way down

Well, hey there, Father
There is just one other thing
I have a simple request
I hear you know God could you give him a nod in my direction
I would be in your debt

Perhaps there is something that we could work out
I noticed your breathing is starting to change
We could go in the back behind all these stacks of bibles
And geht out of this cage

There was this boy who tore my heart in two
I had to lay him eight feet underground

All I need is someone to save me
Cause I am goin' down
And what I need is someone to save me
Cause God, I'm goin' down, all the way down

I didn't wanna do it, Father
But I caught him with another woman in the bed I made him
So I put him in a grave

And now there's no one left around to get me off
When I want it to drag

The next day on the television they identified him
By the circumsicion that I made and now I'm on the run
But wait, why did I have to go and kill him
When he was the best I'd ever had

All I need is someone to save me
Cause I am goin' down
And what I need is something to save me
Cause God, I'm goin' down, all the way down

I'm goin' down
All the way down


8. NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE

I was only 19, you were 29
It’s just 10 years, but its such a long time
In a heartbeat, I would do it all again

Late night sex, smokin’ cigarettes
I try real hard but I can’t forget
Now in a heartbeat, I would do it all again

Now I see that you and me were never meant
Never meant to be now
Now I’m lost somewhere
Lost between Elvis and suicide

Ever since the day we died, well
I’ve got nothing left to lose

After Jesus and Rock N Roll
Couldn’t save my immoral soul, well
I’ve got nothing left
I’ve got nothing left to lose

Callin’ out sins just to pass the time
My life goes by in the blink of an eye
I know you want me
I was only lookin’ for a friend

And everything I was
And everything that I’ve become
Just falls into the end and

Now I see that you and me were never meant
Never meant to be now
Now I’m lost somewhere
Lost between Elvis and suicide

Ever since the day we died, well
I’ve got nothing left to lose
After Jesus and Rock N Roll
Couldn’t save my immoral soul, well
I’ve got nothing left
I’ve got nothing left to lose

Now I see that you and me were never meant
Never meant to be now
Now I’m lost somewhere
Lost between Elvis and suicide

Ever since the day we died, well
I’ve got nothing left to lose
After Jesus and Rock N Roll
Couldn’t save my immoral soul, well
I’ve got nothing left
I’ve got nothing left to lose


9. FACTORY GIRL

I am a factory girl, won't you pardon me?
See I can make my whole world in a backseat
Lost point, want a joint, show me how to treat a john
Someone save me, save me from what I am on

Wait a minute girl, can you show me to the party?
I said wait a minute girl, can you show me to the party?
Please let me in through the backdoor
Just let me in through the backdoor, baby
Just let me in through the backdoor, just let me in
Wait a minute girl, can you show me to the party?

It's gonna be a real good time

I'm waiting for my man and hollywood and vine, so fine
Been done in the alley, son I'm on New York time
Take a look at those red lights, green lights, blowin' my mind
I'll show you somethin' If you show me a good time

Wait a minute girl, can you show me to the party?
Wait a minute girl, can you show me to the party?
I'll let you in through the backdoor
I'll let you in through the backdoor, baby
I'll let you in through the backdoor, I'll let you in
Wait a minute girl, can you show me to the party?

Here she comes, coming around again
Here she comes, coming around again
Here she comes, coming around again
Here she somes, coming again

Wait a minute girl, can you show me to the party?
I said wait a minute girl can you show me to the party?

Wait a minute girl, can you show me to the party?
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute
Wait a minute, wait a minute, hey girl, can you show me girl?
Can you show me to the party? Can you show me to the party?
Can you show me to the party?


10. YOU

You don’t want me, no
You don’t need me
Like I want you, oh
Like I need you

And I want you in my life
And I need you in my life

You can’t see me, no
Like I see you
I can’t have you, no
Like you have me

And I want you in my life
And I need you in my life

You can’t feel me, no
Like I feel you
I can’t steal you, no
Like you stole me

And I want you in my life
And I need you in my life
