TONIGHT (Oak)

Hey girl
I know things have crumbled down
In your world
But it all could turn around

I want to show you
How it feels to fall again
Break down defenses
Take your chances

And don't close your eyes
What do you have to lose?
When what you're seeking
Is right in front of you

Gave up your heart
Got it back torn in two
So you pick up the pieces
To start over new

No matter how hard I try
I can't seem to get you off my mind
Take your time, but hurry up
Let me help you decide tonight

I can't seem to understand
How you still think about someone
Who doesn't really care

Girl, I know you're hurting
Feel deserted once again
But good intentions
Sucked you right back in



YOU'RE NO ANGEL (Oak/Vitalo)

Hands up in the air
Caught you in your act again
Once it starts it never ends
Climb your way from bed to bed
Still searching for the next best thing
You say "who cares, I've got no ring"
You're all one and the same to me

So you swear to him again, you're in love
at least for the night....
Till you get what u desire
then you spread your wings and you take flight

Right now, I think its time we called you out
She swears she's hot but even she's in doubt
The gloves are off, and the game's in play because
her halos gone and her wings are fake

You know who you are
If you're an angel, you must have fallen hard from grace
You call them friends, I call them marks
You're no angel, I'm gonna make that clear today

Legs up, that's the way
you seem to make your friends these days
I have to say that it's such a shame
what some girls will do to taste some fame
"Another guy, another night....
that's how i like to live my life...."
She says,
"They're all one and the same to me"

So you swear to the mirror again, you're in love
at least for the night....
Till you set his heart on fire
then you spread your wings and you take flight

Today will be the last time you get what you wanted
This time you'll get what you deserve

Wake up call for me
How you got me here I can't believe
The lights are off, the door is closed
Our secret that no one will know
You think you caught me in your net,
but that's ok girl cause you forget
You're all one and the same to me

So you swear to me again
you're in love, and this time it's right
You'll never get what you desire
Maybe played me once, but never twice



STILL HOLDING ON (Oak/Vitalo)

Can't she see he's falling apart at the seams (she must be blind)
He'll never know how hard she tries to let him go,
but his face still haunts her dreams

The clock strikes twelve
He figures what the hell because it's now or never
So he pens her a letter
One she won't forget for the rest of her life
It said,
"This is the last time you'll ever hear from me again.
I tried to make this work but some things will never change."

Hold on....still holding on
to the things we've shared and times we've spent together
Hold on....still holding on
to the memories of the past cause now he's gone forever

Arrive on the scene
They just stare and still can't believe
What could leave this kid suspended,
take his life, and write its ending?
Pinned on her son's jeans, choking up his mother reads
"Tell her I'm waiting till I see her on the other side.
This is me hanging on her every lie."

Now she sits alone thinking, why did it end this way
She knows she only has herself to blame



GOODBYE MY FRIEND (Oak)

It never crossed my mind
how much time could pass
in just one blink of the eye

A day ago, when we were ten
who knew fun could ever end?
Life is just a game that no one wins

Memories of you and me growing up together
One thing you can count on is a friendship that's forever

I still remember that day....
angels coming down from heaven to fly you away
Riding on the winds of change
although it's hard to stand the pain,
the times we shared were always great

Memories of you and me growing up together
But I lie and tell myself that you've gone to someplace better
Memories of you and me that you can't remember....but I'll never forget

Goodbye, my friend
I never got to tell you goodbye.
