KISLEMEZEK

MAKE ME WANNA DIE Az amerikai rockzenekar, a Pretty Reckless dala a névadó, debütáló bővített darabjukról (2010) és debütáló stúdióalbumukról, a Light Me Upról (2010). A dalt Taylor Momsen, Ben Phillips és Kato Khandwala írta, a producer pedig utóbbi. 2010. április 14-én jelent meg, az EP és az album vezető kislemezeként.
A „Make Me Wanna Die” volt az első dal, amelyet a Light Me Up számára írtak. Momsen "tragikus szerelmes dalként" jellemezte, kijelentve, hogy "a Rómeó és Júliára összpontosított, valamint egy szenvedélyes szerelemre, amely talán nem volt helyénvaló."

DALSZÖVEGEK

MAKE ME WANNA DIE

Take me, I'm alive, never was a girl with a wicked mind
But everything looks better when the sun goes down
I had everything, opportunities for eternity
And I could belong to the night
Your eyes, your eyes, I can see in your eyes, your eyes

You make me wanna die, I'll never be good enough
You make me wanna die, and everything you love
Will burn up in the light, and every time I look inside your eyes
You make me wanna die

Taste me, drink my soul, show me all the things that I shouldn't know
When there's a blue moon on the rise
I had everything, opportunities for eternity
And I could belong to the night
Your eyes, your eyes, I can see in your eyes, your eyes
Everything in your eyes, your eyes

You make me wanna die, I'll never be good enough
You make me wanna die, and everything you love
Will burn up in the light, every time I look inside your eyes (I'm burning in the light)
You make me wanna die

I would die for you, my love, my love
I would lie for you, my love, my love (You make me wanna die)
And I would steal for you, my love, my love (You make me wanna die)
I would die for you, my love, my love

We'll burn up in the light
Every time I look inside your eyes (I'm burning in the light)
Look inside your eyes (I'm burning in the light)
I look inside your eyes
You make me wanna die

MY MEDICINE

Somebody mixed my medicine
Somebody mixed my medicine

Well, you hurt where you sleep and you sleep where you lie
And now you're in deep and now you're gonna cry
Got a woman to your left and a boy to your right
You start to sweat, so hold me tight ('Cause)

Somebody mixed my medicine, I don't know what I'm on
Somebody mixed my medicine, now, baby, it's all gone
Somebody mixed my medicine, and somebody's in my head again
And somebody mixed my medicine again, again

Well, I'll drink what you leak and I'll smoke what you sigh
See across the room with a look in your eye
Got a man to his left and a girl to his right
I start to sweat, so hold me tight ('Cause)

There's a tiger in the room and a baby in the closet
Pour another drink, mom, I don't even want it
Then I turn around and think I see someone that looks like you
Well, you hurt where you sleep and you sleep where you lie
And now you're in deep and now you're gonna cry
Got a woman to your left and a boy to your right
You start to sweat so hold me tight ('cause)

Somebody mixed my medicine, I don't know what I'm on
Somebody mixed my medicine, now, baby, it's all gone
Somebody mixed my medicine, and somebody's in my head again
And somebody mixed my medicine again, again, again
Again, again, again, again, again, again

Somebody mixed my medicine
Somebody mixed my medicine
Somebody mixed my medicine

GOIN' DOWN

Hey there, Father, I don't wanna bother you, but I've got a sin to confess
I'm just sixteen if you know what I mean, do you mind if I take off my dress?
Don't know where to start, let me get to the good parts, might wanna cross up your legs
I've got envy, I've got greed, anything that you need, and I'm not above having to beg
There was this boy who tore my heart in two
I had to lay him eight feet underground

All I need is someone to save me, cCause I am goin' down
And what I need is someone to save me, cause I am goin' down, all the way down

Well, hey there, Father, there is just one other thing, I have a simple request
I hear you know God, could you give him a nod in my direction, I would be in your debt
Perhaps there is something that we could work out
I noticed your breathing is starting to change
We could go in the back behind all these stacks of bibles, and get out of this cage
There was this boy who tore my heart in two
I had to lay him eight feet underground

All I need is someone to save me, cause I am goin' down
And what I need is someone to save me, cause I am goin' down, all the way down

I didn't wanna do it, Father, but I caught him with another woman in the bed I made him
So I put him in a grave, and now there's no one left around to get me off
When I want, it's a drag (What a drag)
The next day on the television, they identified him by the circumcision that I made
And now I'm on the run, but wait
Why did I have to go and kill him when he was the best I'd ever had?

All I need is someone to save me, cause I am goin' down
And what I need is somethin' to save me, cause I am goin' down, all the way down
I'm goin' down, all the way down

ZOMBIE

I'm not listening to you, I am wandering right through existence
With no purpose and no drive, cause in the end we're all alive, alive
Two thousand years I've been awake, waiting for the day to shake

To all of you who've wronged me
I am, I am a zombie, again, again you want me to fall on my head
I am, I am, I am a zombie
Hello, hello, how low will you push me, to go, to go, to go, before I lie down dead

Blow the smoke right off the tubes, kiss my gentle burning bruise
I'm lost in time, and to all the people left behind
You are walking dumb and blind, blind
And two thousand years I've been awake, waiting for the day to shake
