"Billy" lyrics
"Billy"
Billy's leaving today (don't know where he's going)
Holds his head in disgrace (he can't escape the truth)
He knows the price that he's paid
He admits that it's too late to admit that he's afraid
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late
Old doors are closed but he's always open
To relive time in his mind
Oh Billy
Billy's leaving today (don't know where he's going)
He's got lines on his face (they tell the story of his pain)
He accepts it's his fate
He admits it took too long to admit that he was wrong
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late
Old doors are closed but he's always open
To relive time in his mind
Oh Billy
Once he was a lover sleeping with another
Now he's just known as a cheat
And he wish he'd had a mirror; looked a little clearer
Seen into the eyes of the weak
Yeah and once he was a lover sleeping with another
Now he's just known as a cheat
And he wish he'd had a mirror; looked a little clearer
Seen into the eyes of the weak
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late
Old doors are closed but he's always open
To relive time in his mind
Oh Billy...

You'll already miss me if I...
Lukas Graham - "Love Someone" There are days
I wake up and I pinch myself
You're with me, not someone else

Even the worst...
Racoon - "Love You More" Clouds above go sailing by
I found my meaning in this life

Natalie Imbruglia - "Torn" I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
Well, you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know
Seem to care...
Melanie C - "First Day Of My Life" So I found a reason to stay alive
Try a little harder see the other side
Talking to myself
Too many sleepless nights
Trying to find a meaning to this stupid life
I don’t want your sympathy...
