Clumsy on the Wall

Alexandra Slate- Clumsy on the Wall

Play your records on my tv set
wrote me letters on the phone
well I drank a thousand miles of highway
just have you fly me home

and I don't mind being this way
so I stay clumsy on the wall
I thought a million words I could say
but I knew you'd heard them all

and I know that you're using my time
sittin back in your good life
I'd rather not
but I'm
loosing my mind
and I
cant get out

I wont forgive myself for this one
I could've grabbed a little less
I waited patient for an hour
just to let my heart
rest

and I don't mind being this way
so I stay clumsy on the wall

and I know that you're using my time
sittin back in your good life
I'd rather not
but I'm
loosing my mind
and I
cant get out

and I know that you're using my time
sittin back in your good life
I'd rather not
but I'm
loosing my mind
and I know that you're using my time
sittin back in your good life
I'd rather not
but I'm
loosing my mind
and I
can't get out

Alexandra Slate

A little known artist named Alexandra slate... If you look her up most places only have the lyrics to one or maybe two of her songs. She's most known for a song she had on the Tomb Raider soundtrack called Bad Girl. That's where I fell in love with her voice, after much searching I found a copy of the only CD she's ever produced called Edge of a Girl, but there are so many of her songs that hit you right in the soft spot like this one called "Blinding the Universe" , I found her on Amazon.com, def worth looking up.

Blinding the Universe

What about her
What about his life
How bout every last one of the hurt
What would I say

You have let me down
I can't help but blame you for this ...curse
drowning in your world

you are
blinding the universe
and I still can't see
when you're
blinding the universe

Let me think through...this
let me have some time to myself
well it could be so damn easy without you
yet I can't seem to find someone else

You have let me down
I can't help but blame you for this ...curse
drowning in your world

you are
blinding the universe
and I still can't see
when you're
blinding the universe

You have let me down
I can't help but blame you for this ...curse
drowning in your world

you are
blinding the universe
and I still can't see
when you're
blinding the universe

Die Awake

When all of your walls
Fall to the ground
And the prettiest one
Makes its way around

Well don’t make a fool of yourself
Don’t be afraid to try something else
Cuz I saw it coming
You should’ve known

And I hope
That the madness stays
And I hope
That I die awake

Facing the need that I’m bound to
Stand on the feet that I want to
Facing the need that I’m bound to

Well taste a memory
Breath on my face
Sinking in honey
Holding your place

Well don’t make a fool of yourself
Don’t be afraid to try something else
Cuz I saw it coming
You should’ve known

And I hope that I die awake
Facing the need that I’m bound to
Stand on the feet that I want to
Facing the need that I’m bound to

And I hope
That I die awake

Well don’t make a fool of yourself
Don’t be afraid to try something else

And I hope that I die awake
And I hope that I die awake
Facing the need that I’m bound to
Stand on the feet that I want to
Facing the need that I’m bound to
Holding the greed that surrounds you

Bad Girl by Alexandra Slate

So I picked one up the other day
does that mean I'm a bad girl?
And if i take of all my clothes?
Well that makes me a bad girl

What if life itself goes to shit?
now that i've been pushed around
Well tell me something I don't know
'cause I've held off way too long now

And its not the way you hold me,
hold me responsible
I'm not who you think I am
Have I fooled the whole world?
Nobody knows
I'm a very,
very bad girl
(yeah i'm a bad girl)

So I wrote this song for sanity
and it tells me I'm naive
but if she heard this melody
she'd see me off with ease

And it's not the way you hold me
hold me responsible
I'm not who you think I am
Have I fooled the whole world?
Nobody knows (no oh) nobody knows
I'm a very, very bad girl(Oh I'm a bad girl)

And its not the way you hold me,
hold me responsible
I'm not who you think I am
Have I fooled the whole world?
Nobody knows, (no oh) nobody knows
Well theres no point in you believing,
I'm a saint when I'm deceiving
everybody thinks I'm someone else

I'm a very, very bad girl
Oh I'm a bad girl
I'm a bad girl
I'm a very, very bad girl.....
