"Heavens To Betsy: Calculated"HEAVENS TO BETSY: "CALCULATED"
1) NOTHING CAN STOP ME if i show you that i'm alive
if i show you i've got feelings inside
if i show you i know i'm not that perfect
then will you know that you can hurt me
but if you think that i'm not strong
you best watch out nothing can stop me
i read your words and cry
you betray my trust a million times
you poison my life with lies
you victimize
but if you think that i'm not strong
you best watch out nothing can stop me
i got a heart that's true
i got something i must do
i know that everything is fucked up
i ain't never gonna shut up
but if you think that i'm not strong
you best watch out
2) DECIDE do you wanna get married baby

3) STAY AWAY i saw the way you looked that day

and i still breathe i'm still alive

the punk white privileged scene
oh quarterback i'll steal your axe
and i'll cut it out of here
8) DONATING MY BODY TO SCIENCE i know how you look at the world
i know how you look at the world
everything can be explained by forms and charts and numbers
everything i feel is explained
it's a chemical formula
i hold these secrets inside of me
if you dissect it you can control it
if you can name it then you can own it
i don't wanna play operation anymore
i'm tired of ending up with my organs on your floor
it's a chemical formula
i hold these secrets inside of me
you want to diagram my heart
is it so that you will know how to take it apart
if you want to know what i feel
you could never just ask me
9) TERRORIST you follow me on the fucking street
you make me feel like a piece of meat
you think i don't know what war means
now i'm the terrorist see how it feels
i'm going to kill you
i'll cut up gouge out your eyes
i'm going to kill you
i'm not your prey i'll make you die
on my mouth there is a gag
everything i say is wrong
you laugh at me and knock me down
well now your turn is coming around
i'm not kidding
i've had it just about to here
i'm not kidding
i threaten everything you hold dear
10) CALCULATED i don't know how to be good to you
you're too close and you know it too
nobody has a good enough excuse
i'm just fucked up and so are you
i love you so much you could hurt me
so i do it first so you won't see me
laugh it off and i don't feel it
hard as rocks and nails underneath
hardly anyone is sincere
all i know is anger that is real
i barely know how true goodness feels
i don't even know how to feel
i know i built walls all around
i'm begging you to knock them down
but yours are just as big and mean as mine
tight defenses and we draw the line
if you want to go just go
and i'll watch you walk away
i don't care if you go
and i'll watch you walk away
i'll die if you go
i'll watch you walk away
stop everything
stop all these fucked up games
oh promise me we'll be good to each other
promise me i need it signed sealed and delivered
stop everything
or my heart will break
my pride isn't worth it
help me this is hurting
if you want to go just go
i'll watch you walk away
super girl
she isn't real
i can't fly alone
i can't even get off the ground
i don't know what else to say
i don't want to push you away
i need your help today
i can't get off the ground today
11) WHITE GIRL i should have talked about this a long time ago
but i didn't have to think about it
and that's what this song is about
white girl i wanna change the world
but i won't change anything unless i change my racist self
it's a privilege it's a background
it's everything that i own
it's speaking on the hero of this pretty white song
it's thinking on the hero of this pretty white world
white girl i wanna change the world
but i won't change anything unless i change my racist self
12) PARALYZED i've seen the way you looked at the sky
you look right up at it with unclouded eyes
that ain't the way i see anything
i don't know if i can stand another day of rain
you left the nest so long ago
you walked right out one day it was easy for you
ruffle your feathers everything you have in my face
well i had to leave my wings at home today
i've seen you in the sky
how did you get so high
i don't know how to fly
you've left me paralyzed
wonder why only some of us get to touch the sky
you were born with blue, baby boy blue in your eyes
you were born to touch the sky
i know why only some of us get to touch the sky
i know what privilege is i know what mine is and why
but if i could i'd steal yours and i would fly so fuckin high
wonder why only some of us get to touch the sky
all that i can do is watch you fly
all that i can do is say goodbye
