"Solo"


You speak to me
And in your words I hear a melody
But in the twilight it's so hard to see
What's wrong for me

I can't resist
Until 你 give the truth a little twist
As if you're gonna get away with this
You're not sorry

I can't believe I fell for this

I fell through the hole
Down at the bottom of your soul
Didn't think 你 could go
So low
Look at what you've done
You're losing me
Here's what you've won
Got me planning to go
Solo
Solo

你 sing to me
Too bad 你 couldn't even stay on key
If your life is such a mystery
Why don't 你 stick to acting?

Here 你 go again...

"Piercing"


Living in fear
Is not what 你 had
In mind for me
But holding to you
Is so hard
I cling to what I see

In a world where my emotions
Seem to rule my every move
They will challenge my devotion
To seek and know the truth

You're piercing me
This self will bleed
You're killing all
Of my securities
Lord, help me see the reality
That all I'll ever need is You

Here in this haze a distant light
Seems to draw me near
But in the shadow of my doubt
My faith just disappears

In a world where my emotions
Seem to rule my every move
They will challenge my devotion
To seek and know the truth

You're...

She fell in 爱情 with a dope boy
Black diamonds on the neck of that dope boy
Big body Benz for that dope boy
Love every tattoo on that dope boy
She sheds tears for that dope boy
Shit, it is what it is for that dope boy
Handle minor biz for that dope boy
But the reward is major, so on and so forth
She can tell 你 由 the Greyhound
She can 显示 你 how to stay down
I can tell 你 'bout to break down
VS1's all in my 婊子, 子 watch face now
Straight G's for your low esteem
A.P's for the whole team
As I run away from my obituary
Walking in the shit that'll get 你 buried
Miami's mine like I'm Pat Riley

BEAT


It's a big bad world but I ain't ashamed,
I like the lights in my hand
And the beat in my face.
It's a big bad world but I ain't ashamed,
I like the lights in my hand
And the beat in my face.

Be-be-beat in my face, be-be-beat in my face,
The lights in my hand, and the beat in my face

Be-be-beat in my face, be-be-beat in my face,
The lights in my hand, and the beat in my face

I'mma make 你 bend your back
Oh my god, this beat is crack
When I do this, 你 do that

I feel like dancing when I hear that sound,
Just wanna do it, eh, just wanna do it, eh.
I feel like dancing when I hear that sound,
Just wanna...

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

Can 你 feel me
When I think about you?
With every breath I take
Every minute
No matter what I do

My world is an empty place
Like I've been wandering the desert
For a thousand days (oh)
Don't know if it's a mirage
But I always see your face, baby

[Chorus:]
I'm missing 你 so much
Can't help it, I'm in love
A 日 without 你 is like a 年 without rain
I need 你 由 my side
Don't know how I'll survive
A 日 without 你 is like a 年 without rain (oh, whoa)
Whoa, oh, whoa

The stars are burning
I hear your voice in my mind (voice in my mind)
Can't 你 hear me calling?
My 心 is yearning

Come and Get it

When you're ready come and get it (x2)
Na na na (x3)

When you're re-e-a-dy (x2)

When you're ready come and get it
Na na na (x3)

You ain’t gotta worry it’s an open invitation
I’ll be sittin’ right here real patient
All 日 all night I’ll be waitin’ standby
Can’t stop because I 爱情 it, hate the way I 爱情 you
All 日 all night maybe I’m addicted for life, no lie.
I’m not too shy to 显示 I 爱情 you, I got no regrets.
I 爱情 你 much to, much to hide you, this 爱情 ain’t finished yet. This 爱情 ain’t finished yet…
So baby whenever you’re ready…

She had never really even noticed him before. He had long, blonde hair that was almost white and black eyes. The teacher, Mrs. Taylor dismissed...

Just a few things before the story; one, if there's something 你 don't like about it, please tell me! I want it to be as good as it can be. ^-^ Just please tell me in a respectful way, please. I would appreciate that. Thank you.
Also, this story will be a little (well, 更多 than a little) bloody and violent, and there may be some cussing later on. Just a warning.
That being said, I hope 你 like it!

Now, there's no denying that Dani is pretty adorable. She's playful and immature, just like a little girl should be, as 你 can see from the scene where she comes out of the closet and scares Max. She has the spirit of a cute little girl, as she loves trick-or-treating.

However, after the first few 分钟 of screen time she has, her character started going downhill for me. She screams for her mother at the 最佳, 返回页首 of her lungs when Max refuses to take her trick-or-treating, which makes me think she's spoiled. She's 表演 all tough and 《勇敢传说》 against 松鸦, 杰伊, 杰伊 · and Ernie "Ice", but ends up doing this...
