And the heat is rising
Honestly, Honestly
And my heart is aching
Honestly, Honestly
And my tongue is tied
Watching life go by
And my head is pounding
Honestly, Honestly
Chorus
You wanna shake it
For a little while
So just trust me
It's not why...
Verse 2
Why am I
Such a mess
Oh I guess I will try to explain
Why I'm feeling this way
So I'll run out
Of time-outs
Untie Me
Untie Me
Chorus
You wanna shake it
For a little while
So just trust me
It's not why...

You’ve got a hold on me
And I’m gonna like it

On better ground
Let me out there
Find a way out

Sha-Sha Show me...
Show some skin
And then

I’ll look right in

Make me believe

On better ground
Let me out there
Find a way out

from my body
and ooh...

you only know
that i really was lost
i’m burning it down
burning it down
Verse 2
Give my body back
I’ll get my body back
Pretty heavy
Try to instigate
What you want to make
About me
You’ve got your head
Down to your waist
So much

Burning it down
before you get in
girl on the ground
but
i’ve just started
you only know
that i really was lost
i’m burning it down
burning it down
burning it down

And hey boy!
What do you say?

Is it your head?
Your head?

All in all, pretend
We could have been something else
Honestly pretend
for whatever you’re fighting for.
I could never play a fool,
unless you wanted me to
Honestly pretend.

Verse 1
I’m not saying
That I am giving up
You’ve got to know
That I’m looking for ways
To stay along
With your vantage point
I know that I can
Make an escape
A magical place
A tropical destination waits
Too scared, but I’m in
Oh baby I’m just checking in
(Oh baby I’m just stepping it up)
Chorus
Misplaced my lover
But I want to get this straight…

Verse
Too old
Too fast
Not enough
To keep up
With the runaway dreams
That held me
Too bored
Unsure
Not enough
To keep me
From getting down
To turn around
Chorus
Then you send me all your love
Then you send me all your love
Then you send me all your love
Haven’t you wanted this
To get strained?
Refrain
Think you’re really uptight
Paralyzed
Think you’re really uptight
Paralyzed
I’m not you
You’re not me
So I guess I’ll have to get it
I’m just saying
Just once
Oh baby
Get it
No Bones
Forget it
No Bones
Forget it
Chorus
Then you send me all your love
Then you send me all your love
Then you send me all your love
Haven’t you wanted this
To get strained?
Refrain
Think you’re really uptight
Paralyzed
Think you’re really uptight
Paralyzed
No reason
To talk about
My dreams…
No reason
To talk about…
Bridge
Baby I...
Came on strong
Like I did before ya
But honey I...
Will warm these bones
Like I did before ya
But oh I…
I try…
But still I
Can’t lead
You on
Oh
Yeah
