Twister Girl

I was feeling down, depressed and unbelieving.
Then you came around. I thought that I was dreaming.
You are the one most true. I hope you can understand the way I feel towards you.
I never want to lose you. You live so far away.
I think about you all the time. Each and every day.
We played Twister that day. My hand slipped and I touched you.
I did it on purpose, ok? I didn't know what else to do.
I liked you from the start. I know yr the one for me.
You'll always be in my heart.
I'm just a nervous boy stumbling through this world.
Would you walk in it with me? My pretty Twister girl.

Pop Quiz

You can't trick me with a pop quiz on our history.
'Cuz I remember everything about you and me.
Our first date, our first kiss. I hated how'd I miss you every other week.
Oh no!
So who writes the story of whatever we have here?
Well if it's me then it's going to be biased my dear.
She was perfect. We were a sure fit.
I'd never seek someone else.
Yeah right!

That stain won't stay on yr brain much longer.
'Cuz yr getting stronger with each passing day.
The way it's burned in yr mind, I'm not surprised: You couldn't move yr eyes from that awful scene.

Second Chance
01:49

Given the second chance I'd do it all again.
Try to learn from my mistakes. I'll break before I bend.
I'd give it all up for a moment with you.
Won't see me crying when that moment is through.
Little boy caught acting like a man.
Tried to flavor life. It was way too bland.
Suck his thumb, he's safe in his shell.
Somebody save him. He's trapped in his hell.
He'll do it by himself.

Next In Line
01:31

You said you wouldn't be much more than a day.
The days add up, now yr three months away.
And though I hope to be yr boyfriend again, this torch I hold for you burns at both ends.
We don't talk anymore. You left me for dead.
What are you hiding for? You like him instead?
Was I too simple for you?
I still remember all those days that we shared.
The summer months and that smile you would wear.
But now a different boy suits you just fine.
How I wish I were the next guy in line.
Please make me yr next guy in line.
I sure feel sorry for whoever's next in line.

Clean Break
03:42

I never meant to leave a scar that wouldn't heal, but sometimes the worst thing is showing how you feel.
So I'd hide in the shadows with the deepest shade of black.
And I tried to make you move slow but you regrouped for the attack.
Round 1, the gloves come off and the truth comes out.
Yes, I confess but you still doubt. I guess I cried wolf too many times.
I'm waving the red flag but yr so blind.
Like pulling a Band-Aid, I want a clean break from you.
It's easy 'cuz you've had a part-time someone too.
And I wish I had the last laugh and could kick you while yr down.
But the switch was thrown fast and you took the train out of this town.
But wait! You've left a present just for me.
Spreading rumors. They believed.
I'm wearing the red letter shirt everyday.
I can hear you laughing six hours away.
