The Voice Within

"**The Voice Within"** is a song originally by Christina Aguilera that Christina Grimmie covered on YouTube. It was uploaded on February 4, 2010.

## Lyrics

Young girl, don't cry
I'll be right here when your world starts to fall
Young girl, it's alright
Your tears will dry, you'll soon be free to fly, ooh

When you're safe inside your room, you tend to dream
Of a place where nothing's harder than it seems
No one ever wants or bothers to explain
Of the heartache life can bring and what it means

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
You'll learn to begin
To trust the voice within
Oh

Young girl, don't hide
You'll never change if you just run away (Ooh, oh yeah)
Young girl, just hold tight
Soon you're gonna see your brighter day

Now in a world where innocence is quickly claimed
It's so hard to stand your ground when you're so afraid
No one reaches out a hand for you to hold
When you look outside, look inside to your soul

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
You will learn to begin
To trust the voice within
Oh yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah

Life is a journey
It can take you anywhere you choose to go
As long as you're learning
You'll find all you'll ever need to know
*(Be strong)* You'll break it
*(Hold on)* You'll make it
Just don’t forsaken it because
No one can tell you what you can’t do
No one can stop you, you know that I’m talking to you

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
And like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
You will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Young girl, don't cry
I'll be right here when your world starts to fall
Mmm, oh

Liar Liar

**Liar Liar** is the seventh track off of Christina Grimmie's debut EP Find Me. It was released independently on June 14, 2011.

## Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Can't see you anymore

You're in and shut the door

Didn't know what I do know now

The words have been betrayed

You respond and let them fade

And I just won't let you bring me down

You can see what I know and I know

Somewhere there's a sorry heart

Tell me why these roads keep leading

Leading you right back to me

[Chorus]

Liar, liar, don't cry on my shoulder

You played with fire

And smiled when you told her

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Thought you were someone

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Goodbye to no one

[Verse 2]

So break away the touch

Of bliss you miss so much

But I won't tell you to come back home

Emotions dissipate, is love designed to hate?

Keep on driving away from here

Eye the rain as it falls in your hands

Will there be another storm?

Tell me why these roads keep leading

Leading you right back

[Chorus]

Liar, liar, don't cry on my shoulder

You played with fire

And smiled when you told her

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Thought you were someone

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Goodbye to no one

[Bridge]

I don't need to know you'll be there

You're not on my mind

I don't need to know you care

Please don't waste my time

[Chorus]

Liar, liar, don't cry on my shoulder

You played with fire

And smiled when you told her

Liar, liar, don't cry on my shoulder

You played with fire

And smiled when you told her

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Thought you were someone

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Goodbye to no one

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Thought you were someone

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Goodbye to no one

[Intro]

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There is just one thing I need

I don't care about the presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

All I want for Christmas is you, yeah

[Verse 1]

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There is just one thing I need (And I)

Underneath the Christmas tree

I don't need to hang my stocking

There upon the fireplace (Ah)

Santa Claus won't make me happy

With a toy on Christmas Day

I just want you for my own (Ooh)

More than you could ever know (Ooh)

Make my wish come true

All I want for Christmas is you

You, baby

[Verse 2]

Oh, I won't ask for much this Christmas

I won't even wish for snow (And I)

I'm just gonna keep on waiting

Underneath the mistletoe

I won't make a list and send it

To the North Pole for Saint Nick (Ah)

I won't even stay awake to

Hear those magic reindeer click

[Chorus]

'Cause I just want you here tonight (Ooh)

Holding on to me so tight (Ooh)

What more can I do?

Oh baby, all I want for Christmas is you

You, baby

[Bridge]

Oh, all the lights are shining

So brightly everywhere (So brightly, baby)

And the sound of children's

Laughter fills the air (Oh, oh yeah)

And everyone is singing (Oh yeah)

I hear those sleigh bells ringing (Oh)

Santa, won't you bring me the one I really need? (Yeah, oh, oh)

Won't you please bring my baby to me?

[Verse 3]

Oh, I don't want a lot for Christmas

This is all I'm asking for (Ah)

I just wanna see my baby

Standing right outside my door

[Chorus]

Oh, I just want you for my own (Ooh)

More than you could ever know (Ooh)

Make my wish come true

Oh baby, all I want for Christmas is you

[Outro]

You, baby

All I want for Christmas is you, baby (You)

All I want for Christmas is you, baby (Ah, oh, ah, oh)

All I want for Christmas is you, baby (You)

All I want for Christmas is you, baby (All I really want, baby, ooh)

All I want for Christmas is you, baby (All I want, all I really want is you)

## Lyrics

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Be careful making wishes with the d-d-d-dark
Can't be sure when they fit their m-m-m-mark
And besides in the mean mean time I'm
Just dreaming of tearing you apart

I'm in the deep deep dance with the devil
You know the world can never get me on my level
I just got to get you out the cage on my own lovers range
God I need a spark to ignite

Ohhhhh
This girl is on fire
This girl is on fire

(Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up)

I'm on fire

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

In the dark, dark

This girl is on fire

In the dark, dark

Looks like a girl but she's a flame
So bright she could burn your eyes
You better look the other way
And you can try but you'll never forget her name
'Cause she's on top of the world
The hottest of the hottest girls
Say ohhhhh
This girl is on fire
This girl is on fire

(Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up)

I'm on fire

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

In the dark, dark

This girl is on fire
Yeahhh
'Cause my song kno-o-o-o-ow
What you did in the dark
Fire

(Light 'em up, up, up)
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up)

This girl is on fire

(Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up
Light 'em up, up, up)

In the dark, dark

This girl is on fire

## Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Sometimes I get my head in a dilly

Feeling so lost, ticking you off

Now, boy, you know me well, said I'm that kind of feeling

That kind of soft, that kind of silly

[Pre-Chorus]

But when I'm in doubt

I open my mouth

And words come out

Words come out like

[Chorus]

Baby, there's a shark in the water (Water)

There's something underneath my bed

Oh, please believe, I said

Baby, there's a shark in the water (Water)

I caught them barking at the moon

Better be soon

[Verse 2]

High in the sky, the song that I'm singing (That I'm singing)

A sweet little lie, I cry wolf, cry

Rabbit out the hat, yes, that's what I'm bringing

(That's what I'm bringing)

Some tricks up my sleeve for noticing me (Oh yeah)

[Pre-Chorus]

Wouldn't cause you any harm (Oh)

I just want you in my arms

I can't help

I can't help myself

[Chorus]

Baby, there's a shark in the water (Water)

(There's a shark in the water)

There's something underneath my bed

Oh, please believe, I said

Baby, there's a shark in the water (Water)

I caught them barking at the moon

Better be soon

Better be soon

[Bridge]

Right is right, rules are rules

This is more like April Fools, just winding you up, whoa

Jack be nimble, Jack be quick

Please don't make too much of it

It ain't that serious, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Yes

[Chorus]

Baby, there's a shark in the water (Water)

(Baby, there's a shark in the water)

There's something underneath my bed

Oh, please believe, I said

Baby, there's a shark in the water (Water)

I caught them barking at the moon

You better get here soon

[Outro]

Baby, there's a shark in the water (There's a shark in the water)

Baby, there's a shark in the water (Water)

Baby, there's a shark in the water (Water)

I caught them barking at the moon

Better be soon
Temptation

***Temptation*** is an unreleased song by Christina Grimmie. Leaked on SoundCloud on October 23, 2016.

## Lyrics

Disappears you're out of sight

Suddenly you're by my side

You can think you can press rewind

Go back giving you all my time

Would you like it if I just cave in

Crash, burn, gave in

Cause you know the way to get under my skin

I'm not about let you in

Sorry but you have to go go go

And I don't want to say it twice

I mean it when I tell you no no no

Temptation let's me fool me once

Now you're back again

And I ain't gonna fall for your temptation

You try to lead me on like I'm on a string

An I ain't gonna fall for your temptation

Temptation

Working magic captivate

Casting spells

Too late

You always underestimate

This time I'm doing it my own way

Enough, enough

I ain't in it just because

Tricks are for kids

And I'm all grown up

Looks like I called your bluff

Sorry but you have to go go go

And I don't want to say it twice

I mean it when I tell you no no no

Temptation let's me fool me once

Now you're back again

And I ain't gonna fall for your temptation

You try to lead me on like I'm on a string

An I ain't gonna fall for your temptation

Temptation

Sorry but you have to go go go

And I don't want to say it twice

I mean it when I tell you no no no

Temptation let's me fool me once

Now you're back again

And I ain't gonna fall for your temptation

You try to lead me on like I'm on a string

An I ain't gonna fall for your temptation

Temptation

## Lyrics

[Verse 1]

We clawed, we chained our hearts in vain

We jumped never asking why

We kissed, I fell under your spell

A love no one could deny

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't you ever say I just walked away

I will always want you

And I can't live a lie, running for my life

I will always want you

[Chorus]

I came in like a wrecking ball

I never hit so hard in love

All I wanted was to break your walls

All you ever did was, you wreck me

Yeah, you, you wreck me

[Verse 2]

I put you high up in the sky

And now, you’re not coming down

It slowly turned, you let me burn

And now, we’re ashes on the ground

[Pre-Chorus]

So don't you ever say I just walked away

I will always want you

And I can't live a lie, running for my life

I will always want you

[Chorus]

I came in like a wrecking ball

I never hit so hard in love

All I wanted was to break your walls

All you ever did was, you wreck me

Yeah, you, you wreck me

I came in like a wrecking ball

Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung

Left me crashing in a blazing fall

All you ever did was wreck me

Yeah, you wreck me

[Bridge]

I never meant to start a war

I just wanted you to let me in

And instead of using force

I guess I should've let you in

I never meant to start a war

I just wanted you to let me in

I guess I should've let you win

[Chorus]

I came in like a wrecking ball

And all you ever did was, wreck me

I came in like a wrecking ball

Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung

You left me crashing in a blazing fall

All you ever did was wreck me

Yeah, you, you wreck me, yeah

Say something, I'm giving up on you

It was over my head

I know nothing at all

And I will stumble and fall

I'm still learning to love

Just starting to crawl

[Chorus 2]

Say something, I'm giving up on you

I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you

There ain't no reason you and me should be alone
Tonight, yeah, baby

But I got a reason that you-hoo should take me home tonight
I need a man that thinks it right when it's so wrong

Put on your shades, 'cause I'll be dancing in the flames
Tonight, yeah, baby
Tonight, yeah, baby
It isn't doesn't hurt if everybody knows my name, tonight
(*Alright! Alright!*)

It's hot to feel the rush
To brush the dangerous

How To Love

"**How To Love"** is a song originally by Lil Wayne that Christina Grimmie first covered on season six of *The Voice*. A studio version of the cover was later released on the compilation album *The Complete Season 6 Collection (The Voice Performance)*.

## Lyrics

You had a lot of crooks trying to steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
How to love, how to love
You had a lot of moments that didn’t last forever
Now you in a corner trying put it together
How to love, how to love

When you was just a young’un, your looks were so precious
But now you're grown up, so fly it's like a blessing
But you can't have a man look at you for five seconds
Without you being insecure
You never credit yourself, so when you got older
It seems like you came back ten times over
Now you're sitting here in the same corner
Looking through all your thoughts and looking over your shoulder

You had a lot of crooks trying to steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
How to love, how to love
You had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now you in a corner tryning put it together
How to love, how to love

See I just want you to know that you deserve the best
You're beautiful, you're beautiful
And I, and I want you to know
You're far from the usual, far from the usual

You see you had a lot of crooks trying to steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
How to love, how to love
See you had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now you in this corner trying put it together
How to love, how to love

I just want you to know, You deserve the best, you're beautiful
Who Says

"**Who Says"** is a song originally by Selena Gomez that Christina Grimmie covered on YouTube. It was uploaded on March 25, 2011.

## Lyrics

You made me insecure
Told me I wasn't good enough
But who are you to judge
When you're a diamond in the rough?
I'm sure you got some things
You'd like to change about yourself
But when it comes to me
I wouldn't wanna be anybody else

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
I'm no beauty queen, I'm just beautiful me
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
You've got every right to a beautiful life
C'mon

Who says?
Who says you're not perfect?
Who says you're not worth it?
Who says you're the only one that's hurting?
Trust me, that's the price of beauty
Who says you're not pretty?
Who says you're not beautiful?
Who says?

It's such a funny thing
How nothing's funny when it's you
You tell 'em what you mean
But they keep whiting out the truth
It's like the work of art
That never gets to see the light
Keep you beneath the stars
Won't let you touch the sky

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
I'm no beauty queen, I'm just beautiful me
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
You've got every right to a beautiful life
C'mon

Who says?
Who says you're not perfect?
Who says you're not worth it?
Who says you're the only one that's hurting?
Trust me, that's the price of beauty
Who says you're not pretty?
Who says you're not beautiful?
Who says?

Who says you're not star potential?
Who says you're not presidential?
Who says you can't be in movies?
Listen to me, listen to me
Who says you don't pass the test?
Who says you can't be the best?
Who said, who said?
Would you tell me who said that?
Yeah, who said?

Who says?
Who says you're not perfect?
Who says you're not worth it?
Who says you're the only one that's hurting?
Trust me, that's the price of beauty
Who says you're not pretty?
Who says you're not beautiful?
Who says?

Who says you're not perfect?
Who says you're not worth it?
Who says you're the only one that's hurting?

## Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I remember tears streaming down your face when I said, "I'll never let you go"

When all those shadows almost killed your light

I remember you said, "Don't leave me here alone"

But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight

[Chorus]

Just close your eyes

The sun is going down

You'll be alright

No one can hurt you now

Come morning light

You and I'll be safe and sound

[Verse 2]

Don't you dare look out your window, darlin', everything's on fire

The war outside our door keeps ragin' on

Hold on to this lullaby

Even when thе music's gone, gone

[Chorus]

Just close your еyes

The sun is going down

You'll be alright

No one can hurt you now

Come morning light

You and I'll be safe and sound

[Bridge]

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Oh (Oh)

Oh (Oh)

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Oh

Oh

[Chorus]

Just close your eyes

You'll be alright

Come morning light

You and I'll be safe and sound
Everybody Lies

Mark Merthe

**Everybody Lies** is the fifth track off of Christina Grimmie's posthumous album All Is Vanity.

## Lyrics

Everybody lies sometimes
Nothing in the world's as it seems on the outside
Just when you think you got something real
Still you know, everybody lies sometimes

We all got friends we think we can trust
Tell them all the secrets locked inside us
You wake up and find a knife in your back
Be careful what you think, it's better not to blink
We all wanna believe in the perfect person
Reality don't care about that

We always wanna cast the blame
Always waiting for the world to change
Maybe we should start with ourselves, oh
Everybody lies sometimes
Nothing in the world's as it seems on the outside
Just when you think you got something real
Still you know, everybody lies sometimes

We build our walls up, we close ourselves off
But do we really like who we've become?
Or will we hide our hearts in a masquerade?
I don't wanna look in the mirror one day
And not even recognize my own face
Why gain the world if I lose myself?

We always wanna cast the blame
Always waiting for the world to change
Maybe we should start with ourselves, oh

Just stop, take a look around you
You got one shot to get it right
Don't be afraid to take a couple chances now
'Cause everybody lies, ooh yeah
Yeah, yeah

'Cause everybody lies sometimes (Sometimes)
Nothing in the world's as it seems on the outside
Just when you think you got something real (Something real)
Still you know, everybody lies sometimes

You are an extremely unique and individual person
And I'm telling you, don't let those invalid opinions of others
Just bring you to the pits, okay?
You're strong, so own it
Love, me
The One That Got Away

## Video

"**The One That Got Away"** is a song originally by Katy Perry that Christina Grimmie covered on YouTube. It was uploaded on December 8, 2011.

## Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Summer after high school, when we first met

We'd make out in your Mustang to Radiohead

And on my eighteenth birthday, we got matching tattoos

Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof

Talked about our future like we had a clue

Never planned that one day I'd be losing you

[Chorus]

In another life

I would be your girl

We'd keep all our promises

Be us against the world

In another life

I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were

The one that got away

The one that got away

[Verse 2]

I was June, and you were my Johnny Cash

Never one without the other, we made a pact

Sometimes when I miss you, I put those records on, woah

Someone said you had your tattoo removed

Saw you downtown, singing the blues

It's time to face the music, I'm no longer your muse

[Chorus]

But in another life

I would be your girl

We'd keep all our promises

Be us against the world

In another life

I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were

The one that got away

The one that got away

[Post-Chorus]

The one

The one

The one

The one that got away

[Bridge]

All this money can't buy me a time machine, no

Can't replace you with a million rings, no

I should've told you what you meant to me, woah

'Cause now I pay the price

[Chorus]

In another life

I would be your girl

We'd keep all our promises

Be us against the world

In another life

I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were

The one that got away

The one that got away (The one that got away)

[Post-Chorus]

The one (The one)

The one (The one)

The one (The one)

In another life

I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were

The one that got away

The one that got away
Some Nights

"**Some Nights"** is a song originally by Fun that Christina Grimmie first covered on season six of *The Voice*. A studio version of the cover was later released on the compilation album *The Complete Season 6 Collection (The Voice Performance)*.

## Lyrics

Some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck
Some nights I call it a draw
Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle
Some nights I wish they'd just fall off
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh, Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh
What do I stand for?
What do I stand for?
Most nights I don't know anymore...
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh

This is it, boys, this is war - what are we waiting for?
Why don't we break the rules already?
I was never one to believe the hype
Save that for the black and white
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked
But here they come again to jack my style

That's alright (that's alright)
I found a martyr in my bed tonight
She stops my bones from wondering just
Who I, who I, who I
Who I am, who am I?
Who I am

Some nights I wish that this all would end
'Cause I could use some friends for a change
And some nights I'm scared you'll forget me again
Some nights I always win, I always win
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh, Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh
What do I stand for?
What do I stand for?
Most nights I don't know
Oh, come on, oh, come on
Oh, come on, oh, come on

Well, that is it guys, that is all
Five minutes in and I'm bored again
Ten years of this, I'm not sure if anybody understands
This one is not for the folks at home
Sorry to leave, mom, I had to go
Who the heck wants to die alone all dried up in the desert sun

My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she called love
When I look into my nephew's eyes...
Man, you wouldn't believe
The most amazing things that can come from...
Some terrible nights

Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa, yeah
What do I stand for, what do I stand for?
Most nights I don't know anymore

"**Stereo Hearts**" is a song by Gym Class Heroes featuring Adam Levine that Christina Grimmie covered on YouTube. It was uploaded on November 4, 2011.

## Lyrics

[Chorus]

My heart's a stereo

It beats for you, so listen close

Hear my thoughts in every no—

Oh—ote

Make me your radio

And turn me up when you feel low

This melody was meant for you

To sing along to my stereo

[Verse 1]

If I was just another dusty record on the shelf

Would you blow me off and play me like everybody else?

If I asked you to scratch my back, could you manage that?

Like yikky-yeah check it, Travie, I can handle that

Furthermore, I apologize for any skipping tracks

It's just the last girl that played me left a couple cracks

I used to, used to, used to, used to, now I'm over that

'Cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts

[Pre-Chorus 1]

If I could only find a note to make you understand

I’d sing it softly in your ear and grab you by the hand

Just keep me stuck inside your head like your favorite tune

And know my heart's a stereo that only plays for you

[Chorus]

My heart's a stereo

It beats for you, so listen close

Hear my thoughts in every no—

Oh—ote

Make me your radio

And turn me up when you feel low

This melody was meant for you

To sing along to my stereo

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, oh oh-oh, oh

Oh oh-oh (To my stereo)

Oh, oh-oh, oh

To sing along to my stereo

Let's go!

[Verse 2]

If I was an old-school, fifty-pound boombox

Would you hold me on your shoulder wherever you walk?

Would you turn my volume up in front of the cops?

And crank it higher every time they told you to stop

And all I ask is that you don't get mad at me

When you have to purchase mad D batteries

Appreciate every mixtape your friends make

You never know, we come and go like on the interstate

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I think I finally found a note to make you understand

If you could hit it, sing along and take me by the hand

Just keep me stuck inside your head, like your favorite tune

You know my heart's a stereo that only plays for you

[Chorus]

My heart's a stereo

It beats for you, so listen close

Hear my thoughts in every no—

Oh—ote

Make me your radio

And turn me up when you feel low

This melody was meant for you

To sing along to my stereo

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, oh oh-oh, oh

Oh oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh, oh

To sing along to my stereo

[Bridge]

I only pray you never leave me behind

Because good music can be so hard to find

I'll take your hand and hold it closer to mine

Thought love was dead, but now you're changing my mind

[Chorus]

My heart's a stereo

It beats for you, so listen close

Hear my thoughts in every no—

Oh—ote

Make me your radio

And turn me up when you feel low

This melody was meant for you

To sing along to my stereo

[Outro]

Oh, oh oh-oh, oh

Yeah, yeah, ye—eh—eh

Oh oh oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, ye—eh—eh

Oh, oh-oh

Yeah, yeah, ye—eh—eh

To sing along to my stereo

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah

## Lyrics

I got my eyes on you
You're everything that I see
I want your high love and emotion, endlessly
I can't get over you
You left your mark on me
I want your high love and emotion, endlessly

'Cause you're a good boy and you know it
You act so different around me
'Cause you're a good boy and you know it
I know exactly who you could be
Just hold on we're going home, ah, ha-ah, ha-ha
Just hold on we're going home, ah, ha-ah, ha-ha
It's hard to do these things alone, ah, ha-ah, ha-ha
Just hold on we're goin' home, ah, ha-ah, ha-ha

You're the one, you're the one
Gave you everything I love
I think there's something, baby
I think there's something

I got my eyes on you
You're everything that I see
I want your high love and emotion, endlessly
I can't get over you
You left your mark on me
I want your high love and emotion
Endless, endlessly

'Cause you're a good boy and you know it
I know exactly who you could be, yeah
Just hold on we're going home
Just hold on we're going home
It's hard to do these things alone
Just hold on we're going home
Crowded Room

Rune Westberg

**Crowded Room** is the fourth track off of Christina Grimmie's posthumous album All Is Vanity.

## Lyrics

How many times?
How many nights?
Wasted on trying to fit in
A different dress, same old regrets
Vanity's wearing me thin
And this exposure, over and over
Who is that girl in my skin, in my skin?

Here in this crowded room
Under the pale white moon
Blinded and lost in the lights
Looking for somewhere to hide
Surrounded by faces, laughter, and voices
Alone here with everyone else
Here in this crowded room
I found everyone but myself
Ooh, yeah-yeah

I dance in the dark, hiding my cards
Don't want you to know who I am
Act like I don't care
Pretend I'm not scared
I buried my head in the sand
The hand of a stranger, makes me feel safer
Lonely but not on my own, on my own, yeah

Here in this crowded room
Under the pale white moon
Blinded and lost in the lights
Looking for somewhere to hide, yeah-yeah
Surrounded by faces, laughter, and voices
Alone here with everyone else
Here in this crowded room
I found everyone but myself

Carry on, move along
Holding on, to anyone
Get through the night, just get through the night
Walk away, never fade
Never break, stay away
Get through the night, by the end of the night
I'm still here by myself
Here in this crowded room
Under the pale white moon
Blinded and lost in the lights
Looking for somewhere to hide

Oh, here in this crowded room
Under the pale white moon
Blinded and lost in the lights
Looking for somewhere to hide
Surrounded by faces, laughter, and voices
Alone here with everyone else
Here in this crowded room
I found everyone but myself, but myself, hmm
I Bet You Don't Curse God

Jeff Sierota

**I Bet You Don't Curse God** is the ninth track off of Christina Grimmie's album With Love.

## Lyrics

I bet you don't curse God
When the doctor calls with a stern voice and the test results
And he asks you to come in right away
I bet you don't curse God
When you're on a plane in a, turbulence, pourin' rain
And you're, hoping that you'll make it out okay

Everybody cries
We've all faked a smile
When your back's against the wall and your hands are tied

There's pain, life hurts
There's a thousand things you think you don't deserve
All hope, is lost
When you spend it all and you just can't beat the odds
I bet you don't curse God
I bet you don't curse God

I bet you don't curse God
When your child is gone and he, ain't picking up the phone
And it's, 2 A.M. on a Saturday in July
I bet you don't curse God
At your bottom line and your, credit cards are all declined
And you, don't know where you're gonna sleep tonight

Everybody cries
We've all faked a smile
When your back's against the wall and your hands are tied

There's pain, life hurts
There's a thousand things you think you don't deserve
All hope, is lost
When you spend it all and you just can't beat the odds
I bet you don't curse God
I bet you don't curse God

I bet you don't curse God
When you're dying in bed
About to take your one last breath
And you're, holding on before you say goodnight

There's pain, life hurts
There's a thousand things you think you don't deserve
When all hope, is lost
When you spend it all and you just can't beat the odds
I bet you don't curse God
I bet you don't curse God
I bet you don't curse God

Only Hope

"**Only Hope"** is a song originally by Switchfoot that Christina Grimmie covered on YouTube. It was uploaded on November 21, 2009.

## Lyrics

There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But You sing to me over and over and over again

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now You're my only hope

Sing to me of the song of the stars
Of Your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again
When You feel like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that You have for me over again

And I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now You're my only hope

I give You my apathy
I'm giving You all of me
I want Your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs I'm giving it back

And I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now You're my only hope
Counting

Brennan Aerts

**Counting** is the eighth track off of Christina Grimmie's debut EP Find Me. It was released independently on June 14, 2011.

## Lyrics

I can't fall asleep tonight
I'm not the same without you
Since I've been gone
Since I've been gone

When I lay down at night
Nobody's here to catch
The tears I cry
Can't wait to be home
Wait to be home

A million more miles
Till I get to see you
A thousand more minutes
I know I'll have to go through

Counting my, (counting my)
Way back to you, back to you

A hundred more thoughts
Of us to consume me
Too many steps till
You're right in front of me

Counting my, (counting my)
Way back to you, back to you

I keep good company
But most days I'm still lonely
Without you here
Without you here

I try to do my thing
But I just might go insane
Without you near
Without you near

A million more miles
Till I get to see you
A thousand more minutes
I know I'll have to go through

Counting my, (counting my)
Way back to you, back to you

A hundred more thoughts
Of us to consume me
Too many steps till
You're right in front of me

Counting my, (counting my)
Way back to you, back to you

If you could travel the world
With me I'd feel so complete
We'd have the time of our lives

Right now, I keep waiting
A little longer, to be
By your side, oh yeah, babe

A million more miles
Till I get to see you
A thousand more minutes
I know I'll have to go through

Counting my, (counting my)
Way back to you, back to you

A hundred more thoughts
Of us to consume me
Too many steps till
You're right in front of me

Counting my, (counting my)
Way back to you, back to you

A million more miles
Till I get to see you
A thousand more minutes
I know I'll have to go through

Counting my, (counting my)
Way back to you, back to you

A hundred more thoughts
Of us to consume me
Too many steps till
You're right in front of me

Counting my, (counting my)
Way back to you, way back to you, oh
