Lacuna

Não que eu não fosse feliz
antes de te conhecer
Só que era como se eu vivesse
meio anestesiada
Sempre tive muitos amigos
e muitas opções de lazer
Dinheiro na medida certa 
não me faltava nada
Gozava de boa saúde
nunca dormi no hospital
E brigas de família
só na ceia de natal

Eu queria deixar bem claro
Se não dá pra perceber
Nunca vivi em desamparo
Só que me faltava você

Não que a vida fosse ruim
antes de eu encontrar você
Mas também não era assim
como um final feliz de TV
Não andava emburrada
Não tinha motivo pra estresse
Tinha uma boa religião
agradecia a Deus em minha preces
Gostava de uma boa piada
Praticava esporte todo dia
Era boa em matemática
e não tão mal em geografia

Eu queria deixar bem claro
Se não dá pra perceber
Nunca vivi em desamparo
Só que me faltava você

Era meio surreal
uma lacuna em meu sorriso
E ter você, comigo, agora
É tudo o que eu preciso
Alguém com tanto carisma
Que me deixa tão à vontade
Me faz ver a vida sob outro prisma
Acho que isso
é amor de verdade...

Jaded


I’m so tired of being fooled
Of being taken for granted
‘Cause, boy you got me confused
And I don’t mean I resented
All the times you said you’d call
And I ended up with friends
I would have done nothing at all
If I hadn’t made other plans

A little bit of honesty
I would so have appreciated
So sick and tired of the mystery
This game you’re playing has created
‘Cause, boy I’m so jaded
Boy, you got me so jaded!

I can delete your number
What else am I to do?
To avoid falling for the temptation
Of getting easily subdued
By your conduct deviation
And your small talk, so smooth
If I don’t pull myself together
Oh, boy, then I am only doomed

Well, when I thought that mourning
Would be the only thing left
From a feeling that was growing
But now I see won’t last
I realized that you being phony
Has brought me something that’s a blast
So now I’m writing this poem
And in the shape of a song I leave you in the past

Oh, boy I was once glad
That you made me shiver with desire
Despite losing you is sad
Truth will be just under the wire
‘Cause, boy, I’m only thankful
The harm you caused me got me inspired

Uncool

It seems like
whenever I want your attention
I get it the wrong way
the wrong way
And you seem to get my intention
so it drives you away
it drives you away

What is it that you can't see
The sensitive girl inside of me
The person who wants to give it all
Maybe this is why we can't get on

What is it that you can't see
The generous girl inside of me
There's no one in the world that I want more
So maybe that's why I'm such a bore

It seems like
I get so uneasy around you
This is a shame
it's a shame
I feel like every step of mine's being observed
as though this is a game
is this a game?

I don't care
I just don't wanna look like a fool
But this just makes me look so uncool
What's in this to you?

What is it that you can't see?
The obnoxious girl in me?
The obnoxious girl in me...

Understandable

I'm not gonna let it bring me down
Or has it already brought me down?
I feel motivated to reach my goals
But I don't wanna go out
Don't wanna go out at all
I try not to think of you
Trying to pretend that you don't exist
Your mere existance makes me feel like this

It's not understandable
Is it understandable?
It's not understandable
Something I've created myself got more powerful
Than I can handle

My heartbeat changes with the sound of your name
And it's everywhere
How can you be everywhere?
Supermarkets, soaps, shampoos, cars, gums
I could chew you entirely
Instead I'm sitting here longing for your taste
Knowing these lonely thoughts will only go to waste

It's not understandable
Is it understandable?
It might be understandable
Something I've created myself got more powerful
Than I can handle

Could you please say yes
Could you please say no
If this is the way to go
Your maybes are so strong
Consuming
I can't live with the possibility of you
I don't wanna go on assuming
You want it as much
You don't want it as much
This rush
is wearing me out

It's not understandable
Is it understandable?
It's perfectly understandable
Something I created for myself
with anticipation
Got more powerful than I can handle

Please call me up
Don't make me give up
I'm not going anywhere right now...
