Skylar Grey - Natural Causes Lyrics






Intro - Wilderness

Everywhere a wilderness
We're all out of our minds
Everyone's an animal
Even you and I
Everywhere a wilderness
The concrete to the pines
Everywhere a wilderness
There's no place you can hide
Everywhere a wilderness
We're all out of our minds
Everyone's an animal
But you're my favorite kind
Everywhere a wilderness
The wolves come out at night
Everywhere a wilderness
So won't you hold me tight

Jump

Drunk in the woods, up in space
And wards away from the day
Don't wanna feel anything
But music in my veins

All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump

High on the night, fly away
Lost in the echos and pace
Don't wanna feel any pain
Let all my moons be erased

All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump

All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump
All I wanna do is jump, jump, jump

No fear I'm floating
No fear I'm floating

Lemonade

Through heaven and hell
That's what you said
Through sickness and health
That's what you said

Cause no one knows what we been through
That's what you said
And no one knows me like you do
That's what you said
No matter

I coulda waited for someone to come around
For someone who wouldn't leave a bad taste in my mouth
But life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
I pucker my lips, you could be pretty sour
Add sugar and water, just something to wash it down
Cause life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade

For better or worse
That's what you said
From propose to hearse
That's what you said

Cause no one knows what we been through
That's what you said
And no one knows me like you do
That's what you said
No matter

I coulda waited for someone to come around
For someone who wouldn't leave a bad taste in my mouth
But life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
I pucker my lips, you could be pretty sour
Add sugar and water, just something to wash it down
Cause life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade

Nobody's perfect, no
We're tryin' the best we can
And the pain its so often, oh
From the moments like this
When you're holding my hand

And you're kissing all over my shoulders
Down to my thighs
I haven't told you why,
But you don't see who I am inside
Cause you believed and preconceived this love was born again, you're that paranoid, yeah
But paradise is on the table
Just let me show you how sweet this life can be

I coulda waited for someone to come around
For someone who wouldn't leave a bad taste in my mouth
But life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
I pucker my lips, you could be pretty sour
Add sugar and water, just something to wash it down
Cause life gave me you and I made
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade, lemonade

Kill For You

[Skylar Grey:]
You gon' make make me a believer
Even if that shit ain't true
You gon' make me commit murder
Baby, I'd kill for you

In my eyes
Even if you are wrong, you are right
Even if there is a terrible crime
It's alright, cause I got your back, and I know you got mine
I belong to the church of your name
Sing a song, cause I worship the ground you walk on
If I pray for you, I know you'll be there

You gon' make make me a believer
Even if that shit ain't true
You gon' make me commit murder
Baby, I'd kill for you

In my bed I believe every word that you've said
Just a kiss and you make me forget
All the bad, the battles we lost, the bodies we hid
You don't know, just how far I'd be willing to go
You put the cracks into my moral code
So you can count on me to always be there

You gon' make make me a believer
Even if that shit ain't true
You gon' make me commit murder
Baby, I'd kill for you

Oh, Lord, forgive my weary hands
And for what they may do
I'll carry out his evil plans
If he wants me to

[Eminem:]
In your dream, you're drowning, I just walked in and saved you
I'm your alternate escape route, the alter you pray to
Your ultimate savior, your behavior is altered
Ain't your fault cause I made you
Brainwashed and persuade you
Gibraltar, you're fatal, never falter or waver
When you causing the danger I'm your guardian angel
Nobody can tell you shit, you're already major
Mine just follow me, babe, you
Won't be sorry you stayed, you
Always ride, whatever the plan is
To the end, even if I led us into an ambush
Even if we robbed the First National and cops caught us redhanded
They're coming at us, and we're trapped, put our backs up
Against the wall, and it's too tall
You catapult me or hold the ladder for me
Stay back to get captured, take the fall
You make it all worth it
Baby doll, you're perfect the way you are
Accidents happen
All I know is you love me, that's really all that matters
And any who cross our paths are just collateral damage
At your side, got your lateral, back, your front, diagonal
Backwards, blackbirds, we attack like animals
When they threaten what we have it's a natural reaction
You lay a bitch flat on her back in a second flat for me
Who tries to take your man from you
It's blasphemy, it's another casualty, you'll go whatever route
Whatever you have to do, you blast for me, I never doubt

[Skylar Grey:]
You gon' make make me a believer
Even if that shit ain't true
You gon' make me commit murder
Baby, I'd kill for you

Come Up For Air

Real World

Welcome back to the real world
This ain't no virtual love
Welcome back to the real world
The kind of love you can touch

Welcome back to the real world
Where I wanna be
And I know it's really love
My heart's on a screen that is broken
It's really love when you hold me
Oh I know the tension's for real
[?] isn't stranded and smoking

So real, so warm, I breathe
Breathe like I've never inhaled before

Welcome back to the real world
This ain't no virtual love
Welcome back to the real world
The kind of love you can touch

Welcome back to the real me
When we're all alone
Oh I know it's really us
No faces on a screen that is frozen
It's really us
So turn off the phone
Cause I know the connection is real
And I don't need a signal to show you

How I feel and more
I bleed, bleed like I've never been hurt before

Welcome back to the real world
This ain't no virtual love
Welcome back to the real world
The kind of love you can touch

In the still of the night
Let the stars be the light

Welcome back to the real world
This ain't no virtual love
Welcome back to the real world
The kind of love you can touch

Welcome back to the real world

Straight Shooter

Married into this family and I'm datin' a bunch of outlaws
Even the children drawing guns out of little crayon box
Playing with scissors, cuttin' straight to the point
Don't need to beat around the bush we takin' shots to the groin

Take what I want, take what I need, and do it all with dignity
Say what I want, say what I need
And I don't need you to agree

I don't spit before I f*ck it gotta
Got a hand on my pistol in my pocket
I don't play nice, I'm not a shit talker
I'm a straight shooter now just give me the money honey
Straight shooter now just give me the money honey
Straight shooter now just give me the money
Got a hand on my pistol in my pocket
I'm a straight shooter and just give me the money honey

I ain't kissin' no ass but I'm makin' out like a bandit
I'm brutally honest when I'm mouthin' off here's a bandage
They say I'm savvy for my age and savage as any devil
But at least I'm no imposter strapped in Jesus sandals

Take what I want, take what I need, and do it all with dignity
Say what I want, say what I need
And I don't need you to agree

I don't spit before I f*ck it gotta
Got a hand on my pistol in my pocket
I don't play nice, I'm not a shit talker
I'm a straight shooter now just give me the money honey
Straight shooter now just give me the money honey
Straight shooter now just give me the money
Got a hand on my pistol in my pocket
I'm a straight shooter and just give me the money honey

Dear all the beauty with the lonely frames
Who whispers every word you want to hear
Evil is either underneath our graves
And poison all the flowers in her hair

I don't spit before I f*ck it gotta
Got a hand on my pistol in my pocket
I don't play nice, I'm not a shit talker
I'm a straight shooter now just give me the money honey
Straight shooter now just give me the money honey
Straight shooter now just give me the money honey
Got a hand on my pistol in my pocket
I'm a straight shooter and just give me the money honey

Off Road

So what you wanna do
You wanna do with me, babe
You got me in the mood
So what you wanna do now now now now
Do with me, babe
You got me in the mood

I'm always look for an adventure
Let's go somewhere we both haven't been
I need a change of scenery
I'm sick of lookin' at the same old shit

Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road
Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road

So what you wanna do
You wanna do to me, babe
You got me in the mood
So what you wanna do now now now now
Do to me, babe
You got me in the mood

Let's go off the beaten path
And get high off a different kind of risk
Don't need another party
No I'm sick of takin' all the same old shit

Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road
Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road

Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road
Don't care where you're takin' me
As long as you takin' me
Off road, off road, off road

In My Garden

I don't even deserve it
What I get, I can't believe I earned it
What you said I can't believe I heard it
Been a fact, no matter what the verdict
I'm all I ever needed
If you cut my hands like I'm defeated
They grow back if I'm mistreated
In my garden, in my garden

Where I come from, we don't cry over none
I come from where a few get a chance to be loved
Travel the world
Where I come from I just don't have the time to be miserable

Can't you just smile for me
Can't you just smile baby for me
Smile baby for me
Smile
Smile
Smile
Smile

Patiently
I wait for the sun, to rise, to rise
I ain't goin' [?]
Every broken wing is not a burden
Baby don't complain about your hurtin'
Cause we know there's always [?] worsen
When your roots are bein' eaten
Just know it's good to be receedin'
In my garden, in my garden
In my garden, in my garden oh

Where I come from, we don't cry over none
I come from where a few get a chance to be loved
Travel the world
Where I come from I just don't have the time to be miserable

Can't you just smile for me
Can't you just smile baby for me

Wait for the sun, to rise

Moving Mountains

I just wanna show the world what I'm worth
Don't wanna be stuck like everybody else
I want more, more
I want more, more

You said, "I just wanna find my happiness"
That's why I work so hard, harder than the rest
I want more, more
I want more, more

For once, once in your life
For once push your ambitions aside
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you
For once, once in your life
For once just stop to open your eyes
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you

I just want them all to love me best
Cause maybe that would change how I feel about myself
I want more, more
I want more, more

For once, once in your life
For once push your ambitions aside
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you
For once, once in your life
For once just stop to open your eyes
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you

For once, once in your life
For once push your ambitions aside
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you
For once, once in your life
For once just stop to open your eyes
And instead of moving mountains
Let the mountains move you

Picture Perfect

Picture perfect love
Suddenly upside down
Picture perfect love
Suddenly upside down
Wipe the tears from your face and get high

Having a battle under the moonlight
Fading away
Having a battle under the moonlight
Fading away
You wanna come
Why can't you kill me yourself

Just having a battle under the moonlight
Fading away

Picture perfect love
Suddenly upside down

Having a battle under the moonlight
Fading away
Having a battle under the moonlight
Fading away
You wanna come
Why can't you kill me yourself

Just having a battle under the moonlight
Fading away

The dream turned worse than a nightmare
Hear that sound
Our demons cursing and screaming'
Even when the sun is out
Pictures on the wall turned over
Like a home turned into a fun house
I'm stumbling down the corridor
Like someone spiked my corona
Call the coroner
Our love is dead and it's
Lying in the corner
Arms and legs stretched out on the floor like a dolly
Salvador it's surreal nothing feels real no more
All I can do is drink and smoke 'til I can't feel a f*ckin' thing no more, your
Face is starting to change shapes
Into someone I never seen before
I been going insane
Since you been gone
Picture perfect never looked so wrong
And in the end if I can't make you mine
Imma drink myself into a new frame of mind

Having a battle under the moonlight
Fading away
Having a battle under the moonlight
Fading away
You wanna come
Why can't you kill me yourself

Just having a battle under the moonlight
Fading away
Wipe the tears from your face and get high

We Used To Be Bad

Tall grass is where my tribe is hiding out
Can we pretend that it flew
Straight enough to land on the fairway
And it won't hurt now

We used to be bad like that
But it felt right burning through our daddys' cash
And our nana's cigarettes
We used to be bad like that
In the good old days oh if we only knew back then
That's the best it's gonna get

It's been years
Since we have gotten high enough
Starting to feel like I am drying up
So let's drink the whole thing before I turn to stone

We used to be bad like that
But it felt right burning through our daddy's cash
And our nana's cigarettes
We used to be bad like that
In the good old days oh if we only knew back then
That's the best it's gonna get

How can you live if you just gonna stand around
It's all I've tried
Life is too short to feel constricted
And all we do is that

Tall grass
I'm just so tired of playing by
The rules

Closer

This alone making you crazy
Finger straight to the sky
You can redeem yourself
From the loss of this life

Little bird, you may not see me
But I am the wind that guides
Little bird, you may not see me
But don't be afraid to fly

I'm closer, closer than you know
Closer than you know
I'm closer, much closer
Closer than you know
Closer than you know
And nothing gets you further than this love

Little bird, you may not see me
But I am the wind that guides
Little bird, you may not see me
But don't be afraid to fly

I'm closer, closer than you know
Closer than you know
I'm closer, much closer
Closer than you know
Closer than you know
And nothing gets you further than this love
