Maddi Jane Lyrics

“Barricade”

I know it's hard, I feel it too
So don't bother faking
It doesn't matter what troubles you
I will help you take it

Here from the rain I shelter you
'Til the storm is ended
Fired as arrows, words untrue
But I'll defend

Miss Pitiful you're so beautiful
I'm a light on, fall on me
Fall on me

Before the battle begins and until it's through
I'm like a barricade in between anything and you
So no matter how far, whatever it takes
You will make it through the day, I'm your barricade

Before the battle begins and until it's through
I'm like a barricade in between anything and you
So no matter how far, whatever it takes
You will make it through the day, I'm your barricade

Life is too real for a fairy tale
Soon over after
Time is a healer, but I won't fail
To be with you faster

Miss Pitiful you're so beautiful
I'm a light on, fall on me
Fall on me

Before the battle begins and until it's through
I'm like a barricade in between anything and you
So no matter how far, whatever it takes
You will make it through the day, I'm your barricade

I-I-I'm your barricade
I-I-I'm your barricade, barricade
I-I will be your barricade
I'm your barricade

As the bombs drop
You won't feel a thing
I can take it
You will make it through the day

I will be your barricade [x3]

Before the battle begins and until it's through
I'm like a barricade in between anything and you
So no matter how far, whatever it takes
You will make it through the day, I'm your barricade

I-I-I'm your barricade
I-I-I'm your barricade, barricade
I-I will be your barricade
I am your barricade

“Breakeven”

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just praying to a god that I don't believe in
‘Cause I got time while he got freedom
‘Cause when a heart breaks no it don't break even

His best the days some of my worst
He finally met a girl whose gonna put him first
While I'm wide awake he's no trouble sleeping
‘Cause when a heart breaks no it don't break even

And what I’m gonna do when the best part of me
Was always you
And what I’m supposed to say when I'm all chocked up
And you're okey, yeah
I'm falling to pieces (2x)

They say bad things happen for a reason
 no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
‘Cause he's moved on while I'm still grieving
‘Cause when a heart breaks no it don't break even

What I’m gonna do when the best part of me
Was always you
And what am I supposed to say when I'm all chocked up
And you're ok
I'm falling to pieces (4x)

You got his heart and my heart 
And none of the pain
You took your suitcase and I took the blame
Now I'm trying to make sense of what little remains, oohh
‘Cause you left me with no love and no love to my name 

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just praying to a god that I don't believe in
‘Cause I got time while he got freedom
‘Cause when a heart breaks no it don't break even
No it don't break even, no

What I’m gonna do when the best part of me
Was always you
And what I’m supposed to say when I'm all chocked up
And you're ok
I'm falling to pieces 
I'm falling to pieces, yea yeah yeah
I'm falling to pieces, oohh
I'm falling to pieces (2x)

“Again”

I love the way your heart breaks 
with every injustice and deadly fate 
Praying it all be new 
and living like it all depends on you

Here you are down on your knees again 
trying to find air to breathe again 
Only surrender will help you now 
I love you please see and believe again

I love that you're never satisfied 
with face value wisdom and happy lies 
you take what they say and go back and cry 
you're so close to me that you nearly died

Here you are down on your knees again 
trying to find air to breathe again 
Only surrender will help you now 
I love you please see and believe again

They don't have to understand you 
be strong 
wait and know I understand you 
be strong 
be strong

Here you are down on your knees again 
trying to find air to breathe again 
Only surrender will help you now 
The floodgates are breaking 
and pouring out

Here you are down on your knees again
trying to find air to breathe again
right where I want you to be again 
I love you please see and believe again
Here you are down on your knees again 
trying to find air to breathe again 
Right where I want you to be again 
See and believe!

“Impossible”

I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did, I did
And you were strong and I was not
My illusion, my mistake
I was careless, I forgot
I did, I did

And now when all is done
There is nothing to say
You have gone and so effortlessly
You have won
You can go ahead tell them

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof top
Write it on the sky love
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible (2x)

Falling out of love is hard
Falling for betrayal is worst
Broken trust and broken hearts
I know, I know
Thinking all you need is there
Building faith on love is worst
Empty promises will wear
I know (i know)
And know when all is gone
There is nothing to say
And if you're done with embarrassing me
On your own you can go ahead tell them

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof top
Write it on the sky love
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible (8x)

I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof top
Write it on the sky love
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy (i was happy)
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible (8x)

I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did

                                               “Just the way you are”

Oh his eyes, his eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining
His hair, his hair
Falls perfectly without him trying

He's so wonderful
And I tell him everyday

Yeah I know, I know
When I compliment him
He wont believe me
And its so, its so
Sad to think he don't see what I see
But every time I ask him do I look okay
I say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause boy you're amazing
Just the way you are

Oh you know, you know, you know
Id never ask you to change
If perfect is what you're searchin for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking
If you look okay
You know I say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
because you're amazing
Just the way you are

And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for a while
Cause boy you're amazing
Just the way you are

The way you are
The way you are
Boy you're amazing
Just the way you are

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause boy you're amazing
Just the way you are

Yeaah.

                                                       “Jar of hearts”

I know I can't take one more step towards you
'Cause all that's waiting is regret
And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most
I learned to live, half-alive
And now you want me one more time


Who do you think you are?
Runnin' round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

I learned to live,half-alive
And now you want me one more time

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

Dear it took so long
Just to feel alright
Remember how you put back the lights in my eyes
I wished that I had missed the first time that we kissed
'Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back...


Who do you think you are?
Runnin' round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all
Don't come back at all...
Who do you think you are?

“Price Tag”

Seems like everybody's got a price, 
I wonder how they sleep at night. 
When the sale comes first, 
And the truth comes second, 
Just stop, for a minute and 
Smile 

Why is everybody so serious 
Acting so damn mysterious 
Got your shades on your eyes 
And your heels so high 
That you can't even have a good time 

Everybody look to their left 
Everybody look to their right 
Can you feel that (yeah) 
We're paying with love tonight 

It's not about the money, money, money 
We don't need your money, money, money 
We just wanna make the world dance, 
Forget about the Price Tag 
Ain't about the (uh) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching. 
Ain't about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling 
Wanna make the world dance, 
Forget about the Price Tag. 

We need to take it back in time, 
When music made us all unite 
And it wasn't low blows and video, 
Am I the only one getting tired 
Why is everybody so obsessed 
Money can't buy us happiness 
Can we all slow down and enjoy right now 
Guarantee we'll be feeling alright. 

Everybody look to their left 
Everybody look to their right 
Can you feel that (yeah) 
We're paying with love tonight 

It's not about the money, money, money 
We don't need your money, money, money 
We just wanna make the world dance, 
Forget about the Price Tag 
Ain't about the (uh) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching. 
Ain't about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling 
Wanna make the world dance, 
Forget about the Price Tag. 

“Mine”

You were in college working part time waitin' tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk with a fear of fallin'
Wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts

I say "Can you believe it?
As we're lying on the couch?"
The moment I can see it.
Yes, yes, I can see it now.

Do you remember, we were sitting there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time.
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter.
You are the best thing that's ever been mine.

Flash forward and we're taking on the world together,
And there's a drawer of my things at your place.
You learn my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded,
You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes.

But we got bills to pay,
We got nothing figured out,
When it was hard to take,
Yes, yes, this is what I thought about.

Do you remember, we were sitting there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine.

Do you remember all the city lights on the water?
You saw me start to believe for the first time

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine.

Oh, oh, oh

And I remember that fight
Two-thirty AM
As everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street
Braced myself for the "Goodbye"
'cause that's all I've ever known
Then you took me by surprise
You said, "I'll never leave you alone."

You said, "I remember how we felt sitting by the water
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
She is the best thing that's ever been mine."

Hold on, make it last
Hold on, never turn back

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine.
(Hold on) Do you believe it?
(Hold on) Gonna make it now.
(Hold on) I can see it,
(Yes, yes) I can see it now.

“Rolling In The Deep”

There's a fire starting in my heart 
Reaching a fever pitch, it's bringing me out the dark 
Finally I can see you crystal clear 
Go head and sell me out and I'll lay yourself bare 

See how I leave with every piece of you 
Don't underestimate the things that I would do 

There's a fire starting in my heart 
Reaching a fever pitch 
And it's bring me out the dark 

The scars of your love remind me of us 
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all 
The scars of your love they leave me breathless 
I can't help feeling 
We could have had it all 
Rolling in the deep 
You had my heart and soul in your head 
And you played it 
To the beat 
Baby I have no story to be told 
But I've heard one of you 
And I'm gonna make your head burn 
Think of me in the depths of your despair 
Making a home down there 
It Reminds you of the home we shared 

The scars of your love remind me of us 
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all 
The scars of your love they leave me breathless 
I can't help feeling 
We could have had it all 
Rolling in the deep 
You had my heart and soul in your head 
And you played it 
To the beat 

Throw your soul through every open door 
Count your blessings to find what you look for 
Turned my sorrow into treasured gold 
You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow oh

We could have had it all 
We could have had it all 
It all, it all it all, 
We could have had it all 
Rolling in the deep 
You had my heart and soul in your head
And you played it 
To the beat

We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart and soul in your head
And you played it, you played it, you played it, you played it
To the beat

“Secrets”

I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life gets kinda boring
Need something that I can confess
Til' all my sleeves are stained red
From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought you saw wink, no
I've been on the brink, so

Oooh,
Amazing how we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars
And everyday I see the news
All the problems that we could solve
And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
Singing straight, too cold
I don't really like my flow, no, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

Oh, got no reason, got not shame
Got no family I can blame
Just don't let me disappear
I'mma tell you everything

So tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
Oooh, Oooh, Oh, Oh, Oh
All my secrets away

This time, don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
All my secrets away, All my secrets away

“If This Was A Movie”

Last night I heard my own heart beating
Sounded like footsteps on the stairs
Six months gone, I'm still reaching
Even though I know you're not there

I was playing back a thousand memories, baby
Thinking 'bout everything we've been through
Maybe I've been going back too much lately
When time stood still and I had you

So come back, come back, come back to me like
You would, you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside 'til I came out
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You could, you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now

I know people change and these things happened
But I remember how it was back then
Wrapped up in your arms and our friends were laughing
'Cause nothing like this ever happened to them,

Now I'm pacing down the hall, chasing down your street
Flashback to the night when you said to me,
That "Nothing's gonna change, not for me and you
Then before I knew how much I had to lose"

Come back, come back, come back to me like
You would, you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside 'til I came out

Come back, come back, come back to me like
You could, you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now

If you're out there
If you're somewhere
If you're moving on
I'll be waiting for you
Ever since you've been gone
I just want it back the way it was before
And I just want to see you back at my front door

Come back, come back, come back to me like
You did before you say it's not that easy
Before the fight, before I locked you out
But I take it all back now

Come back, come back, come back to me like
You would, you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside 'til I came out

Come back, come back, come back to me like
You could, you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now

You'd be here by now
Come back, come back, come back to me
Come back, come back, come back to me
You'd be here right now

“Skyscraper”

                                           Skies are crying, I am watching 

catching teardrops in my hands
Only silence, as it's ending

like we never had a chance.

Do you have to, make me feel like

 there's nothing left of me

You can take everything I have

 you can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass, like I'm made of paper

And go on and try to tear me down

but I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper, like skyscraper

As the smoke clears, I awaken and untangle you from me.
Would it make you, feel better to watch me while i bleed.
All my windows, still are broken, but I'm standing on my feet.

You can take everything I have, you can break everything I am.
Like I'm made of glass, like I'm made of paper.

And go on and try to tear me down, but I will be rising from the ground.
Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper.

Go run run run, I'm gonna stay right here

 watch you dissapear, yeaaaah
Go run run run, yeah it's a long way down

 but I'm closer to the clouds up here.

You can take everything I have, you can break everything I am.
Like I'm made of glass, like I'm made of paper.
And go on and try to tear me down, but I will be rising from the ground.

Like a skyscraper (5x)

“All I Want For Christmas Is You”

I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
And I don’t care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree

I don’t need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won’t make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day

Cause I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
You baby

Oh I won’t ask for much this Christmas
I won’t even wish for snow
I’m just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe

Cause I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
You baby

All the lights are shining so brightly everywhere
And the sound of children’s laughter fill the air
Everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won’t you bring me the one I really need
Won’t you please bring my baby to me

I won’t ask for much this Christmas
This is all I’m asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door

I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
All I want for Christmas is you
All I want for Christmas is you

“Too Close”

You know I’m not one to break promises
I don’t want to hurt you but I need to breathe
At the end of it all, you’re still my best friend
But there’s something inside that I need to release

Which way is right, which way is wrong
How do I say that I need to move on
You know we have is separate way

And it feels like I am just too close to love you
There’s nothing I can really say

I can’t lie no more, I can’t hide no more
Got to be true to myself
And it feels like I am just too close to love you
So I’ll be on my way

You gave me more that I can return
Yet there’s so much that you deserve
Nothing to say, nothing to do,
I’ve nothing to give, I must leave without you
You know we have is separate way

And it feels like I am just too close to love you
There’s nothing I can really say
I can’t lie no more, I can’t hide no more
Got to be true to myself

And it feels like I am just too close to love you
So I’ll be on my way

So I’ll be on my way

And it feels like I am just too close to love you
There’s nothing that I can really say

I can’t lie no more, I can’t hide no more
Got to be true to myself
And it feels like I am just too close to love you
So I’ll be on my way

                                                 “Love Somebody”

(Matty B)

Thinking back on my yesterday

Young kid with a dream ain't nothin' changed

I remember all the things people

would say

All the shots they would take at my

destiny - me

I was made to flow like I own this

A young kiddo with a real strong

focus

Colder than shoulders from old

haters in my head

MJ tell 'em what I said

(Maddi Jane)

But if I fall for you, I'll never recover

If I fall for you, I'll never be the same

I really wanna love somebody (yeah)

I really wanna dance the night away

I know we're only half way there

But you can take me all the way, you can take me all the way

I really wanna love somebody

I think about you every single day

I know we're only half way there

But you can take me all the way, you can take me all the way

(Matty B)

And all I'm wanting is a chance to

grow

Take my time I'm rehearsing for a

chance to show

That there's no such thing as a

dream you can't reach

The sky is the limit and some hate

can't hold me so

What are kids like us to do

Little bit of imagination and lots to

prove

It's got me going and flowing music

holding me

Roller coasting but knowing we coast

to coast

Now we going after the real truth

We got one life to live

Everybody is different a lot to give

And it don't matter if your old, young

small or big

You got a reason to go hard bring

back the kid

Gimmie da mic I'll spit those facts to see

But never will back down look it I'm back believe

I'm representing every kid that'll dare to dream

We worldwide one voice make. history

now sing

(Maddi Jane)

But if I fall for you, I'll never recover

If I fall for you, I'll never be the same

I really wanna love somebody (yeah)

I really wanna dance the night away

I know we're only half way there

But you can take me all the way, you can take me all the way

I really wanna love somebody

I think about you every single day

I know we're only half way there

But you can take me all the way, you can take me all the way

I felt I had to write this letter

You might not know it when your making your beats

But every lyric and syilable's like you're speaking to me

Cause when I'm from they don't encourage a kid with a dream

And everytime I have an idea that I believe in

It gets stomped or squashed and then I feel lost

Like it wanna go dig a hole feeling so low

Don't get me wrong, I believe but get real Matt

Sometimes it's difficult to achieve when people don't believe back

I'm not complaining but it's hard to go after my goals

Cause the people I need most just leave they're cold

My teacher told me that I'll never arnount to anything

But I wrote a chorus for you to sing

I know it's probably not good enough

Not even close

But it's how I feel most so it goes

Reff :

Where are you now? Why did you go?

Give me a reason for leaving

A reason your heart turned to stone

Now it's so cold

You saw me standing with tears in my eyes

And then you turned out the lights

Lights you turned out the lights

Lights why'd you turn out the lights

Everyday brings a new struggle

In every situation is a moment where a choice can bring new trouble

Sometimes I feel like I'm gonna bust like a bubble

Here's what I've been through, now let me inspire you

I hope you never have to feel what it's like, to feel lost

The cost of not a friend in site

Despite your best efforts you can't fight back

When you love someone but they don't love you back Matt

Remember us in your lyrics when you write that

The kids that don't have it all within an arms grasp

Can we dream too? Or is it fantasy?

I need to place where I fit in, in the family

So I'mma choose to believe despite all of these words that sting

All of the hurtful things

With these few word I sing

Just keep it real on the mic B and you've got a fan for life

Back to Reff

We at the point of no return

There ain't no coming back

When it comes to love you never know how to react

Gotta keep your head up

Can't live in the past

I know you feel bad but it goes in a flash
