Lyrics to the collection of songs -
I Was Dressed In yellow
Look
Lover for you
Dancing during intermission
Stare like a fool
Across the room
Lover you choose
List goes down to my amazement
I’m not your type
But that’s to prove
I wanna show you I’m your kind of girl
I can give my love tonight
Look back at it
Look back at it
Jump on the rope
Smoke stack with it
Look back at it
Look back at it
A couple dollar bills
Take a smack at it
Look back at it
Look back at it
Hit and quit what you pack in it
Look back at it
Look back at it, bitch
Shine for you
Petals in the water
You know just what to do
Love is getting harder
Worry just what is true
Learning to discover
What I can do to you
Petals in the water
I wanna show you I’m your kind of girl
I can give my love tonight
Look back at it
Look back at it
Jump on the rope
Smoke stack with it
Look back at it
Look back at it
A couple dollar bills
Take a smack at it
Look back at it
Look back at it
Hit and quit what you pack in it
Look back at it
Look back at it, bitch
ViRG
ViRG

Slow Flight
I’m a woman of my word
Sometimes that falls through
Whats the point of being heard
If i’m not with you
I’m adding power
But we’re sinking in the sky
No way to recover
Stuck in a dive
Always so melancholy
Thinking about the men who call me
White t-shirt in the rain
Everyone is the same
Feeling like i’m in slow flight
Feeling like i’m in slow flight
Feeling like i’m in slow flight
Feeling like i’m in slow flight
Always had to work twice as hard
To make a reality
I should’ve given up from the start
Friends I left behind
They all got degrees
I’m still in my room
Writing apologies
But it don’t make sense
I can feel suspense
Oh she’s just a friend
Just to make amends
Oh I know
I’m too deep to let go
Feeling like i’m in slow flight
Feeling like i’m in slow flight
Feeling like i’m in slow flight
Feeling like i’m in slow flight
Heavy Metal Dreams
“I’m writing you from Boston. I miss you lots. How are things over there? Things are dark here. Oh I cannot help but think about you. I cannot wait for you to come back! You are coming back right? Yours truly, ViRG”
Heavy Metal Dreams
You say the word bring me down to my knees
And I know its swell
You cant make me tall
Its a ways away
The older days stay with secrets to pay
And I know it’s true
Can’t get enough of you
Make an angel cry
Have a flower bloom into the ice
You’re a kinder one
Chasing all the fun
It’s a different game
Predictable, got me feeling so gay
Many people told
We can’t have it fold
They can’t chase me in my Hellcat
You keep on waiting for me to come back
Well things are doing really good here
And I’m staying warm
It’s just a matter of time till’ we’re done with the war
You’re in my heavy metal dreams
You say the word bring me down to my knees
And I know its swell
You cant make me tall
Its a ways away
The older days stay with secrets to pay
And I know it’s true
Can’t get enough of you
You’re in my
Takes Two
It takes two to make a mistake
It takes one to throw it all away
It takes two to fix it up
What's two when one is already gone?
I am nowhere to be seen
I am ashamed
ashamed of me
Do I just start all over again?
Laying down feeling like I'm caving in
I worked too hard to let it all go
But times a changing and I'm too slow
You were a man
Now you're a girl
Got your hand on the big wide world
People are trying
People are dying
People are lying and you fall into the third
Gotta choose your battles you lost trust in me
You were my best friend, my other piece
I wish your ego wasn't so big
I wish you'd listen to what I gotta say
I wish your temper wasn't so quick
I wish you'd listen but you don't listen
You wanna push me around
You wanna hold me down
And tell me all your secrets
Crying when you're leaving
Screaming when I keep them
Don't come crawling to me again
Don't even call you a friend
Greedy for your pieces
Papers act like leashes
Standing on your speeches
So many fish in the sea
And you're swimming towards me
It's a lost cause
It's a lost cause
Love Again
I don’t think I could ever
I don’t think I could ever
I don’t think I could ever love again
I don’t think I could ever
I don’t think I could ever
I don’t think I could ever love again
Lip gloss in my right side pocket
Sunglasses sitting on my head
I heard you were lookin for lovin
Stopped by just to lay in bed
Blow Pop in my mouth i’m suckin
Cherry flavor is the only way
High-tops and my mini-skirt baby
Too small for how much I weigh
All the boys and all the girls wish they were me
When you look this fine you don’t need a degree
Makeup poppin highlight stoppin people in their tracks
My car drives itself
I don’t need Google Maps
I don’t know what its like
To work a day in my life
I just get money from men
Who think that they’re my world
I do expensive drugs
And only Versace cocaine
I just eat what I want
And transfer my weight gain
I don’t think I could ever
I don’t think I could ever
I don’t think I could ever love again
I don’t think I could ever
I don’t think I could ever
I don’t think I could ever love again
I don’t care
I’m an hourglass
Fuck me silly
I don’t mean to be crass
God
It’s open
It’s open
You can hold the bottle
Of perfume
Got it in Milano
It reminds me of you
You can go down on me in my room
We should fool around
Can’t stop thinking of you
God, lets make love
Love
Let’s make love
Love
We have never met
I just like your images
Talk from time to time
Only online
Don’t cut the line
God
Perfume
God
It’s open
We should fool around
We should fool around
God
Mr. Xanman
Helpless disco dance floor
Worthless outfit adore
Spent $20 dollars on this
All for nothing
Checkered tile beneath me
Anger know it’s creeping
Spent all my money on this
At least for something
I wont be calling you no more
You promised it was potent
I’m still alive getting off to Vore
You must have misspoken
Claire
“The painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable
and painful disease or in an irreversible coma”
I want to know what it’s like to breathe air on my own
I want to know what it’s like to be able to say hello
I’m looking up at the sky and it’s open
It’s open
I feel so alive and it’s open
And it’s open
Oh
You say it isn’t that
I don’t want to know I just want to say hello
I know it is not my intention
I just gotta go
Oh
“If it is given me to save a life, all thanks.
But it may also be within my power to take a life;
this awesome responsibility must be faced with great
humbleness and awareness of my own frailty.
Above all, I must not play at God.”
Faded
You wanna show me around
Baby I feel faded
I feel it tumbling down
I don’t know i’m wasted
You can tell me what your number is
You can hold my hand and show me things
But you can never pick me up at home
But you can never pick me up at home
You can show me all the fancy things
And you can kiss me on my pinky ring
But you can never pick me up at home
But you can never pick me up at home
You wanna show me around
Baby I feel faded
I feel it tumbling down
I don’t know it looks dangerous
It takes no time to get your attention
You freak me out with your confession
A first date with no expectations
I’m sliding off losing my perception
You wanna show me around
You really got me faded
I feel it tumbling down
Baby I am wasted
Where’s my mind
I’m too shy
Where’s my mind
Guess i’ll stay the night
You wanna show me around
You really got me faded
I feel it tumbling down
Baby you are dangerous
I’m wasted
Faded
Baby you forget it
You got me fade
Blanket
I’m feeling weirder than ever
Feel like I could touch the sky
But it’s wavy
And there’s blood in my eye
Reached for the door knob
But it melted right off
I just wanna lay down
But I keep falling and falling
Into this blanket of love
But I am falling
Into the this blanket of love
And I can’t get up
I’m feeling weirder than ever
Here don’t stop
Blood in my eye
Blood in my eye
Blood in my eye
Synthia
I would go gay for you Synthia
Love your nails
Where’d you get them?
I’ll copy them
I like your new hairdo
It’ll look good on me if it looks good on you
What’s the deal?
Whats the problem?
Who am I? I don’t gotta choose
She was a strawberry blonde
And dyed it black
She wore a gold necklace to prom
And puked in the back
And I held her hair in the bathroom
While we talked about boys
And I was dressed in yellow
And I was dressed in yellow
I hope no one knows
I need to conceal
I watch her on the track
She asked me to study her heels
I like the way the move
I bet i’d like the way they feel
Synthia
What a steal
Look at me
Look at you
I know I don’t stand a chance
But I can’t get you off my mind
Synthia
I’m so in love
Synthia
I’m so in love
Synthia
I’m so in love
Synthia
I would go
I would go
I would go
I would go
I would go
I’m in love and I don’t want to show
