Subject: Your Dad Hi Girls, I need your help.

After I’m gone, give your dad some time. And then please tell him to call Daisy Jones. Her number is in my date book in the second drawer of my nightstand.

Tell your father I said at the very least, the two of them owe me a song.

Love,

Mom

Chasing the Night

Trouble starts when I come around Everything’s painted red when I’m in town Light me up and watch me burn it down If you’re anointing a devil, I’ll take my crown Foot on the gas, add fuel to the fire I’m already high and going higher Charging faster, ready to ignite Headed for disaster, chasing the night You turn wrong when you turn right White light at first sight

Oh, you’re chasing the night

But it’s a nightmare chasing you Life’s coming to me in flashes Wearing my bruises like badges Don’t know when I learned to play with matches Must want it all to end in ashes Foot on the gas, add fuel to the fire I’m already high and going higher Charging faster, ready to ignite Headed for disaster, chasing the night You turn wrong when you turn right White light at first sight

Oh, you’re chasing the night

But it’s a nightmare chasing you Foot on the gas, add fuel to the fire I’m already high and going higher Foot on the gas, add fuel to the fire Look me in the eye and flick the lighter Oh, you’re chasing the night

But it’s a nightmare, honey, chasing you

This Could Get Ugly

The ugly you got in you Well, I got it, too

You act like you ain’t got a clue But you do

Oh, we could be lovely If this could get ugly Write a list of things you’ll regret I’d be on top smoking a cigarette Oh, we could be lovely If this could get ugly The things you run from, baby, I run to And I know it scares you through and through No one knows you like I do Try to tell me that ain’t true Oh, we could be lovely If this could get ugly C’mon now, honey

Let yourself think about it Can you really live without it?

Oh, we could be lovely If this could get ugly

Impossible Woman

Impossible woman

Let her hold you

Let her ease your soul Sand through fingers Wild horse, but she’s just a colt Dancing barefoot in the snow Cold can’t touch her, high or low She’s blues dressed up like rock ’n’ roll Untouchable, she’ll never fold She’ll have you running In the wrong direction Have you coming

For the wrong obsessions Oh, she’s gunning

For your redemption Have you headed

Back to confession Sand through fingers Wild horse, but she’s just a colt Dancing barefoot in the snow Cold can’t touch her, high or low She’s blues dressed up like rock ’n’ roll Untouchable, she’ll never fold Walk away from the impossible You’ll never touch her Never ease your soul You’re one more impossible man Running from her

Clutching what you stole

Turn It Off

Baby, I keep trying to turn away I keep trying to see you a different way Baby, I keep trying

Oh, I keep trying

I gotta give up and turn this around There’s no way up when you’re this far down And, baby, I keep trying Oh, I keep trying

I keep trying to turn this off But, baby, you keep turning me on I keep trying to change how I feel Keep trying to tell myself that this isn’t real Baby, I keep trying

Oh, I keep trying

Can’t take off when there’s no runway ahead And I can’t get caught up in this all over again Baby, I keep trying

Oh, I keep trying

I keep trying to turn it off But, baby, you keep turning me on I’m on my knees, my arms wide I’m finding ways to stay alive Lord knows I’m pleading, pleading To keep this heart still beating, beating I keep trying to turn it off But, baby, you keep turning me on Baby, I’m dying

But, baby, I’m trying

I can’t keep selling

What you’re not buying

So I keep trying to turn it off And, baby, you keep turning me on I’m on my knees, my arms wide I’m finding ways to stay alive Lord knows I’m pleading, pleading To keep this heart still beating, beating I keep trying to turn it off But, baby, you keep turning me on

Please

Please me

Please release me

Touch me and taste me Trust me and take me Say the things left unsaid It’s not all in my head Tell me the truth, tell me you think about me Or, baby, you can forget about me Please me

Please release me

Relieve me and believe me Maybe you can redeem me Say the things left unsaid It’s not all in my head Tell me the truth, tell me you think about me Or, baby, you can forget about me I know that you want me Know that you wanna hold me Know that you wanna show me Know that you wanna know me Well do something and do it quick Not much more I can stand of this Say the things left unsaid Don’t act like it’s all in my head Tell me the truth, tell me if you think about me Or, baby, can you forget about me?

Please, please, don’t forget about me Please, please, don’t forget about me

Young Stars

A curse, a cross

Costing me all costs

Knotting me up in all of your knots An ache, a prayer

Worn from wear

Daring what you do not dare I believe you can break me But I’m saved for the one who saved me We only look like young stars Because you can’t see old scars Tender in the places you touch I’d offer you everything but I don’t have much Tell you the truth just to watch you blush You can’t handle the hit so I hold the punch I believe you can break me But I’m saved for the one who saved me We only look like young stars Because you can’t see old scars You won’t give me a reason to wait and I’m starting to feel a little proud I’m searching for somebody lost When you’ve already been found You’re waiting for the right mistake But I’m not coming around You’re waiting for a quiet day But the world is just too loud I believe you can break me But I’m saved for the one who saved me We only look like young stars Because you can’t see old scars

Regret Me

When you look in the mirror Take stock of your soul And when you hear my voice, remember You ruined me whole

Don’t you dare sleep easy And leave the sleepless nights to me Let the world weigh you down And, baby, when you think of me I hope it ruins rock ’n’ roll Regret me

Regretfully

When you look at her Take stock of what you took from me And when you see a ghost in the distance Know I’m hanging over everything Don’t you dare sleep easy And leave the sleepless nights to me Let the world weigh you down And, baby, when you think of me I hope it ruins rock ’n’ roll Regret me

Regretfully

Regret me

Regretfully

Don’t you dare rest easy And leave the rest of it to me I want you to feel heavy Regret me

Regret setting my free Regret me

I won’t go easily

Regret it

Regret saying no

Regret it

Regret letting me go One day, you’ll regret it I’ll make sure of it before I go

Midnights

Don’t remember many midnights Forgotten some of my best insights Can’t recall some of the highest heights But I’ve memorized you
