I’m doin’ fine
And the sun often shines
What are you thinking?
At the worst of my mind
With this thunderbird wine
Baby, I’m drinking

What a waste of all this peace ,
Baby steps and two more sleeps
Till I get to say sorry
I get hysterical, historical; of love is just chemical
Give us something to stop me
Only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
You don’t know cos you’re not there
You simply found the words to make a lot of feelings fade away -or(our model feelings)
Only you know me

I’m doin’ fine
And the sun often shines
What are you thinking?
At the worst of my mind
With this thunderbird wine
Baby, I’m drinking-
Only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
You don’t know cos you’re not there
You simply found the words to make a lot of feelings fade away-or(our model feelings)
Only you know me
Only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
You don’t know cos you’re not there
You simply found the words to make a lot of feelings fade away-or(our model feelings)
Only you know me
Only you know me
Only you
Only you
Only you know me

Our hearts are hungry for a food that won’t come
We could make a feast from these crumbs
And we’re all staring down the barrel of a gun
So if your life flashed before you, what would you wish you would’ve done

Yeah… gotta start
Looking at the hand of the time we’ve been given here
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin’ it
Every second counts on a clock that’s tickin
Gotta live like we’re dying

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
To turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we’re dying

Well if you plane fell out of the skies
Who would you call with your last goodbyes
Should be so careful who we live out of our lives
So when we long for absolution, there’ll be no one on the line

Yeah… we gotta start lookin’ at the hand of the time we’ve been given here
This all we got and we gotta start thinkin it
Every second count on a clock that’s tickin
Gotta live like we’re dying

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we’re dying

Like we’re dying oh…
Like we’re dying
Like we’re dying oh…
Like we’re dying

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we’re dying

You never know a good thing until it’s gone
you never see a crash until its head on
All these people right when we’re dead wrong,
You never know a good thing till it’s gone

Yeah… we gotta start lookin’ at the hand of the time we’ve been given here
this all we got and we gotta start thinkin it
Every second count on a clock that’s tickin
Gotta live like we’re dying

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we’re dying

Like we’re dying oh…
Like we’re dying
Like we’re dying oh…
Like we’re dying

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we’re dying

And I wish that it would snow tonight
You pull me in, avoid a fight.
‘Cause I feel,
A separation coming on.

Just prove that there is nothing left to try.
It’s the truth.
I’d rather we’d just walk tonight.

You kiss me with those open eyes.
It says so much.
It’s no surprise, to you,
But I’ve got something left to say.

Don’t surrender, surrender, surrender,
Please remember, remember December.
We were so in love back then.
Are you listening
To what they say?
Don’t go that way.
Remember, remember, December.
Please remember.
Don’t surrender.

You said, you wouldn’t let them change your mind.
‘Cause we’re here, together fire melts the ice.
Our hearts are both on overdrive,
Come with me let’s run tonight.
Don’t let,
These memories get left behind.

Don’t surrender, surrender, surrender,
Please remember, remember, December.
We were so in love back then.
Are you listening
To what they say?
Don’t go that way.
Remember, remember, December.
Please remember.

I remember, us together,
With the promise, of forever.
We can do this,
Fight the pressure.
Please remember December.

Don’t surrender.

Don’t surrender, surrender, surrender,
Please remember, remember, December.
We where so in love back then
Are you listening
To what they say?
Don’t go that way.
Remember, remember, December.
Please remember.
Don’t surrender.

From the glaring blackness
They slither and slide through the ones and zeros
Prophecy of collapse unfolds
Last grains of sand spiral down the hole

Chance has graced me with a gift
Rest that could be from the dark descent
Sun beats down in hailing rays

In this time of anything
I should pray that through this journey I’m unprepared
I won’t go
Save me now
See your life
I see your life

One. All.

Does he know the way
I wish to stay

See what his aim
Avalanche!
Compromise the road, I will not burn

Pray I’ll always know what they
Those away failing hearts

Jumped in the cab,
Here I am for the first time
Look to the right and I see the Hollywood sign
This is all so crazy
Everybody seems so famous

My tummys turnin and I’m feelin kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I’m nervous,
That’s when the taxi man turned on the radio
and a Jay Z song was on
and the Jay Z song was on
and the Jay Z song was on

CHORUS:
So I put my hands up
They’re playing my song,
And the butterflys fly away
Noddin’ my head like yea
Movin my hips like yea
I got my hands up,
They’re playin my song
I know im gonna be ok
Yea, It’s a party in the USA
Yea, It’s a party in the USA

Get to the club in my taxi cab
Everybody’s lookin at me now
Like “whos that chick, thats rockin’ kicks?
She gotta be from out of town”

So hard with my girls not around me
Its definitely not a Nashville party
Cause’ all I see are stilletos
I guess I never got the memo

My tummys turnin and I’m feelin kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I’m nervous
That’s when the D.J. dropped my favorite tune
and a Britney song was on
and the Britney song was on
and the Britney song was on

CHORUS:
So I put my hands up
They’re playing my song,
And the butterflys fly away
Noddin’ my head like yea
Movin my hips like yea
I got my hands up,
They’re playin my song
I know im gonna be ok
Yea, It’s a party in the USA
Yea, It’s a party in the USA

Feel like hoppin’ on a flight (on a flight)
Back to my hometown tonight (town tonight)
Something stops me everytime (everytime)
The DJ plays my song and I feel alright

CHORUS:
So I put my hands up
They’re playing my song,
And the butterflys fly away
Noddin’ my head like yea
Movin my hips like yea
I got my hands up,
They’re playin my song
I know im gonna be ok
Yea, It’s a party in the USA
Yea, It’s a party in the USA

So I put my hands up
They’re playing my song,
And the butterflys fly away
Noddin’ my head like yea
Movin my hips like yea
I got my hands up,
They’re playin my song
I know im gonna be ok
Yea, It’s a party in the USA
Yea, It’s a party in the USA
