I'm just a girl named Toby
There's nothing about this place that would keep you here
You wouldn't stay anyways cus there ain't nothing that you owe me
I wonder sometimes about about my sister Virginia, I heard she's known to break some hearts
She'll gut you like a fish and toss you back, she heard there're plenty in the sea
She says she only plays her part
I have a brother Sue, he dont like his name at all
He tried to kill our Daddy
I know his pride will lead his fall
And these are just some of the things you don't know about me
And the things you never cared to hear
You were traveling in with the wind
And thought you stay in my bed for a couple years
I'm just a girl named Toby
I don't got nowhere to be
I don't live in constant demand
I've never known much of urgency
My father is a stranger, he loved to run away
And I knew that's why he's always come back, to say goodbye another day
Momma left the back door unlocked, and dinner in the fridge
Sayin' if that dog happens to come back
Don't tell him where I is
There's unbridled anguish hidden in my dreams
There are missing stitches all along my seams
There's a hint of sadness in every smile that I gleam
And these are just a few of the things you don't know about me
I'm just a girl named Toby
You should've let me be
I didn't need the baggage
You're better off being free
Love isn't your language I knew it from the start
I'm just a girl named Toby
Walking with a broken heart

Sweet Illusions- Ryan Adams
Let me go I'm only letting you down
I 've got nothing to say to you now
I lose the feelings that are weighing me down
When I'm safe
It's turning morning all the birds sing
I'm not complicating anything
I'll have another then I'll go to bed
But I'll dream of you
Cause it's almost over
And it's almost gone
And I can feel the sweet illusion, coming
Sweet confusion, honey
Sweet illusion coming down
And I ain't got nothing but love for you now
You and I used to shine like a jewel
But times been nothing to us but cruel
So play it out and never played the fool
Cause you'll lose every time
We were nothing, we were only the past
Hard times like that don't last
I've been forgiven, I've been surpassed
By my heart
Have you?
Cause it's almost over
Yeah it's almost gone
And I can feel the Sweet Illusion coming
Sweet Confusion, honey
Sweet Illusion coming down
And I ain't got nothing but love for you
Love for you I can't use
And lonely nights multiplied by the blues
That I can't resolve
You never knew me but I did my best
I'm just lonely inside I guess
You gave me everything you really tried
Thanks....
If we were nothing and we're only the past
Then I'm just living in a dream I guess
A long black dream that takes me down the river to you
Where it's almost over
And we're almost gone
And I can feel the Sweet Illusion coming
Sweet Confusion, honey
Sweet Illusion coming down
And I ain't got nothing but love for you now

Journey's End- John richard Moreland
When I was young
How distant seemed
Each glittering star,
Each dream I dreamed.
How vast the space
Of earth's blue breath,
How long the road
That led to death.
But now grown old
The far sky nears,
The journey's-end
Almost appears.
Even the star's
Pale yellow light
Grows brighter with
Each passing night.
Till I, who thought
Stars distant, dim,
May reach and touch
Their outer rim.
How distant seemed
Each glittering star,
Each dream I dreamed.
How vast the space
Of earth's blue breath,
How long the road
That led to death.
But now grown old
The far sky nears,
The journey's-end
Almost appears.
Even the star's
Pale yellow light
Grows brighter with
Each passing night.
Till I, who thought
Stars distant, dim,
May reach and touch
Their outer rim.

Kill All Your Friends- My Chemical Romance
Well you can hide a lot about yourself,
But honey, what're you gonna do?
And you can sleep in a coffin,
But the past ain't through with you.
'Cause we are all a bunch of liars.
Tell me, baby, who do you wanna be?
And we are all about to sell it,
'Cause it's tragic with a capital T.
Let it be, Let it be, Let it be!
'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
It's been eight bitter years since I've been seeing your face.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place.
Sometimes you scrape and sink so low,
I'm shocked at what you're capable of.
And if this is a coronation,
I ain't feeling the love.
'Cause we are all a bunch of animals
That never paid attention in school.
So tell me all about your problems;
I was killing before killing was cool.
You're so cool, You're so cool, So cool!
'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
It's been nine bitter years since I've been seeing your face.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place.
You'll never take me alive.
You'll never take me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
'Cause I'm still here.
You'll never get me alive.
You'll never take me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
And I'm still here.
You'll never take me alive.
You'll never get me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
And I'm still here.
You'll never get me.
(Get me!)
You'll never take me.
(Take me!)
You'll never get me alive.
'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
It's been ten fucking years since I've been seeing
Your face 'round here.
And you're walking away, and I will drown in the fear.
But honey, what're you gonna do?
And you can sleep in a coffin,
But the past ain't through with you.
'Cause we are all a bunch of liars.
Tell me, baby, who do you wanna be?
And we are all about to sell it,
'Cause it's tragic with a capital T.

Purgatory, anything goes- Devon Cody
In this place we're all thieves
Sinning in some way, faking innocence, pretending we can't see
That the darkness has grown fingers, and there's eyes under the bed
You close your eyes so tightly, and you can hear the sickness in your head
It's singing
WE all give in sometimes
Oh let me take your coat
Make your self at home
It's only purgatory, don't worry baby, anything goes.
You're smile's dismal
You keep them guessing with your stare
You talk in questions
And wonder if they'll even care
To Beg you sweetly when their taking all they can
To Beg you softly before you take them to their end
And all this time you were waiting to take the spotlight
They told you beauty can be natural, but fame, well that comes with a price
And we're all acting like we can't see the blood on your hands
WE hear the darkness laughing
And you know this means we're all probably damned
It's singing
WE all give in sometimes
Oh let me take your coat
Make your self at home
It's only purgatory, don't worry baby, anything goes.

You keep me dreaming with that look in your eyes
You keep on scheming, but you say you got nothing to hide
I've kept some secrets safe in my heart, about the truth, but I keep on playing my part
Who would defy you, or dare to face the darkness, we all pretend isn't there
It's singing
WE all give in sometimes
Oh let me take your coat
Make your self at home
It's only purgatory, don't worry baby anything goes.
