## **Lyrics**

It's sad, but it's true

We're all pretty strange

When our friends try to help out

We push them away

And it's all in our nature

It's just human behaviour

We don't want 'em to see

What we're like on our own

Because when people are hurt

They like to be left alone

But we're just healing over

We're getting stronger as we get older

And nobody wants to be perfect

'Cause people would stop being kind

We'd settle for being content

If it wasn't so hard to find

Because we're just healing over

We're getting stronger as we get older

And it's all in our nature

It's just Human Behaviour

And though we all make some bad choices

It's rare that we ever regret them

And when those bad choices are people

It's even harder for us to forget them

But you'll heal over in time

I promise you will be fine

It's all part of the ride

Don't let your life pass you by

'Cause we're just healing over

We're getting stronger as we get older

And it's all in our nature

It's just human behaviour

## **Trivia**

* *Emma* has said in an interview that this song best wraps up the EP. She said that the main theme of the EP was about making mistakes, with the final track being reassuring, stating that *"we all make mistakes".*
Akane Hiyama/Relationships

## Aino Seiji

Akane appears to be madly in love with him as shown in "Chapter 1" of the Manga and "Episode 1" of the Anime. She is a very yanderistic character which is shown whenever another woman tries to be near or have a relationship with Seiji. She is even willing to and can kill them just for the sake of making him hers. In "Episode 5" she even goes as far as to even try to kill herself when she thought that Seiji was dead. Akane actually had met Seiji before the series had started. When Seiji was blinded by his pet cat, Akane helped Seiji with both the cat and as his guide. After aiding him, Seiji told Akane that she was very kind. Despite being told that by many people, Akane felt stronger toward Seiji because he could not see her beauty and truly believed she was kind back then. Since then, Akane has fallen in love with Seiji. She officially becomes Seiji's wife during the epilogue.

## Guri

Guri and Akane are on bad terms since they are love rivals to Aino Seiji. Since the start of the story, Guri was not suppose to be with Seiji but after an unlikely event, it seems that Guri is attached to Seiji, making Akane hate her for being by his side because Akane wants Seiji to herself. Akane even tried to kill her many times as well though out the story.

## Yuzu Kichougasaki

Yuzu is Akane's younger half-sister and only sees her as nothing more than her sister, even though Yuzu confessed to her a couple of times. Akane never gets into a fight with Yuzu because Yuzu only has eyes for Akane and not Seiji.

## Shikimi Shiramine

Being the cousin of Akane, she sees her as a threat as well after Shikimi tried to do something to Seiji. Akane always tries to protect Seiji from her grasp.

## **Lyrics**

Waking up it feels like everything is going my way

I've got my boy right by my side

Right down here where we lay

Today we'll go down to the beach just to see

The sun shine despite the forecast telling us it's going to rain all the time

We're not taking any pictures

As we're too busy having fun fun fun fun fun

Instead of looking back at photos in an album

We just look forward whilst you can

And we're too busy having fun

For anything to disrupt us, you know that I trust you

And we're too busy having fun

Running around

And we're too busy having fun

For anything to destroy what I have with my boy

And we're too busy having fun fun fun fun fun

Before we met, I never had luck in relationships

They said I'm needy

Said I'm hateful

But now I'm over it

'Cause when we go down to the beach just to see, the sun shine

You hold my hand and it feels nice and I know you are all mine

And even though I'm getting older

You never made me feel like 22 means no fun

Except for times you say I'm acting like your mother

You know you are my only one

And we're too busy having fun

For anything to disrupt us, you know that I trust you

And we're too busy having fun

Running around

And we're too busy having fun

For anything to destroy what I have with my boy

And we're too busy having fun fun fun fun fun

If I had my way I'd always make you happy

If I had my way you'd be the one I marry

I have no doubt one day you're gonna sail away from me

Across the ocean far away from all my jealousy

But when I look at you and you are lying next to me

I cannot help but think of all the possibilities

We can see the world or sit here in our underwear

'Cause when I'm with you I remember that I really don't care

'Cause we're too busy having fun

For anything to disrupt us, you know that I trust you

And we're too busy having fun

Running around

And we're too busy having fun

For anything to destroy what I have with my boy

And we're too busy having fun fun fun fun fun

## **Lyrics**

When I first met you I swore

That I'd never fall for someone like you

And yet here I am again

Kidding myself you were worth it

But you weren't worth a second of my time

Now we never talk and it suits me fine

Secretly I hope that you're alone

Why should I care when you clearly don't?

Last night I threw out your things

Except for all the shit that I could sell

Because you may as well be good for something

There wasn't all that much that you did well

I hope in years to come I'll hate you more

To make up for the fact that I once swore

I'd never let you in and break me down

I know you never wanted me around

But I'm bitter, no I swear

If you got here by a car I wouldn't care

Well it's a far cry from a year ago

When back then you were someone I used to know

Am I wasting time with all these words?

It's nothing that your friends haven't heard

When you think back to our glory days

I hope you have nothing nice to say

When you think back to our glory days

I hope you have nothing nice to say

I hope you have nothing nice to say

## **Lyrics**

I keep my head down

Won't speak unless I'm spoken to now

I've learned my lesson

They twist and turn your words into a sound

You didn't pronounce

Next time you see me

I won't let my hair down

So you can climb up

And pull me out

I'm lurking in the shadows

Biding my time

What you gonna do?

What you gonna do?

To try and take me

Out

You are the liar

I am the fire

Out

How you gonna take me?

Out

You are the liar

I am the fire

Out

I put these walls up

Questioning the motives of my friends

They can't be trusted

I'm finding I'm the only one I have

Next time you see me

I won't stop to say hello

Cos I know what you want

And I know what I'm in for, yes

I'm lurking in the shadows

Biding my time

What you gonna do?

What you gonna do?

What you gonna do to take me

Out

You are the liar

I am the fire

Out

How you gonna take me?

Out

You are the liar

I am the fire

Out

I see you whispering

What are they're saying?

What are you playing at?

King of the castle

Made out of cardboard

I'll be the big bad wolf

I'm gonna take you out

Out

You are the liar

I am the fire

Out

How you gonna take me?

Out

You are the liar

I am the fire

Out

How you gonna take me?

Out

You are the liar

I am the fire

Out

How you gonna take me?

Out

You are the liar

I am the fire

Out

How you gonna take me?

## **Lyrics**

Now my wisdom teeth are through I feel a little bit older

Jealousy and insecurity won't make the heart grow fonder

I know I shouldn't regret the things that I've said and done to you

But if that's the way that it's meant to be then there's not much I can do

Well I just wish I'd reached out a little bit more

To make my regrets a little less sore

We became like running bones and now we've turned to dust

Destroyed by all the rain that turns the shiny things to rust

Well I just wish you'd reached out a little bit more

Instead of making me feel like this is all my fault

And it takes all my strength not to wind you up

About it, about it

And I know you try hard not to think about it

But what else could we do?

We've both got play for fools

For months I let you see the real me hiding underneath

But now I've kept it buried with my brand new set of teeth

Well I just hope in the future we can straighten things out

Next time we meet I won't even open my mouth

Looking back I realize it was always gonna end

But I got your back and I'm so glad that we can still be friends

Even though I'll miss your voice and the way you sing

When it comes to you and me I don't regret a thing

And it takes all my strength not to wind you up

About it, about it

And I know you try hard not to think about me

But now we've both moved on

And we're finally getting along

And it takes all my strength not to wind you up

And it takes all my strength not to wind you up

And it takes all my strength not to wind you up

Fun fact though, it was going to be on the EP. It was between that and *"Instead",* and I was going to record *"Wisdom Teeth"* and I sent it to my producer and everything saying "This is what I want as track one" but ultimately everyone decided that *"Instead"* would've been a better fit. I don't think I'm ever going to bring back *"Wisdom Teeth"* because my music style is probably going to change."

And when I start to miss you

I go to sleep and then

I'm another day closer

To seeing you again

And I want you to remember this

When you put yourself down

I cannot fear my future

Now that I have you around (Ohhhhhhh)

And I want you to remember this

When you put yourself down

Waiting for the right time

Trying to tell you

## **Lyrics**

It's sad, but it's true

We're all pretty strange

When our friends try to help out

We push them away

And it's all in our nature

It's just human behaviour

We don't want 'em to see

What we're like on our own

Because when people are hurt

They like to be left alone

But we're just healing over

We're getting stronger as we get older

And nobody wants to be perfect

'Cause people would stop being kind

We'd settle for being content

If it wasn't so hard to find

Because we're just healing over

We're getting stronger as we get older

And it's all in our nature

It's just Human Behaviour

And though we all make some bad choices

It's rare that we ever regret them

And when those bad choices are people

It's even harder for us to forget them

But you'll heal over in time

I promise you will be fine

It's all part of the ride

Don't let your life pass you by

'Cause we're just healing over

We're getting stronger as we get older

And it's all in our nature

It's just human behaviour

## Lyrics

**[Verse 1]**

Didn't think I'd be back here (So soon)

Hanging by a thread

Pushing me over the ledge

I so wanted to write you back

(So I could beg you to stay)

But I'm glad to step away

Pull the wool over my eyes

**[Pre-Chorus]**

Make me feel safe

And when I act surprised

Then you throw it away

There was once a time

When I'd take it to heart

But babe, I've come too far now

**[Chorus]**

So here's to your "fresh start"

You should have let me know

When you turn to leave

I can let you go

At least I know

If I'm free from you

Then I'm free from ridicule

If I'm free from you

Then I'm free from ridicule

**[Verse 2]**

Spent so long as the victim (The fool)

Couldn't take it at all

At least I know it's your fault

You went and made me uncomfortable

(When you asked if I would stay)

And laughed and said I'm unreasonable, my god

**[Pre-Chorus]**

You made me feel ashamed

And when I shut you down

You wouldn't take any blame

And there was once a time

When I'd take it to heart

But babe, I've come too far

To let you break me apart

**[Chorus]**

So here's to your "fresh start"

You should have let me know

When you turn to leave

I can let you go

At least I know

If I'm free from you

Then I'm free from ridicule

If I'm free from you

Then I'm free from ridicule

**[Bridge]**

I bet you thought I'd bite you

But I cherish my energy

I know my worth

All the lessons I've learned

And all the bridges I've burned

Are part of my history (History, yeah)

**[Breakdown]**

Whatever makes you happy

Yeah, whatever makes you happy

Whatever makes you happy

Yeah, whatever makes you happy

Whatever makes you happy

Yeah, whatever makes you happy

Whatever makes you happy

Yeah, whatever makes you happy

**[Chorus]**

So here's to your "fresh start" (Whatever makes you happy)

You should have let me know (Yeah, whatever makes you happy)

When you turned to leave (Whatever makes you happy)

Then I can let you go (Yeah, whatever makes you happy)

At least I know (Whatever makes you happy)

If I'm free from you (Yeah, whatever makes you happy)

Then I'm free from ridicule (Whatever makes you happy)

If I'm free from you (Yeah, whatever makes you happy)

Then I'm free from ridicule

So here's to your "fresh start" (Whatever makes you happy)

You should have let me know (Yeah, whatever makes you happy)

When you turn to leave (Whatever makes you happy) (Yeah)

I can let you go (Yeah, whatever makes you happy)

At least I know (Whatever makes you happy)

If I'm free from you (Yeah, whatever makes you happy)

Then I'm free from ridicule (Whatever makes you happy)

If I'm free from you (Yeah, whatever makes you happy)

Then I'm free from ridicule

So put your hands

Up through the soil

'Cause you've been dead to me for a long while

Well, you can't stand

He's with me now

Don't think I can't see you creepin' around

You said it to me

You said it the last time

You said you wouldn't cheat anymore,

You lied,

Although he's with me

He thinks all women are all out to deceive,

You only want him back

Because he's in love with me, yeah

You can play your songs,

All that you want

'Cause you're in the past

Where you belong

It used to be (it used to be)

You he adored

Well, how does it feel to know

He doesn't want you anymore?!

You said it to me

You said it the last time

You said you wouldn't cheat anymore

You lied,

Although he's with me

He thinks all women are all out to deceive,

You only want him back

Because he's in love with me

You Lied! [x4]

You Lied! [x4]

You said it to me

You said it's the last time

You lied

You said it to me

You said it the last time

## **Lyrics**

I got out of the way

To break your hold on me

But we still talk every day

Don’t we?

And now it’s giving me pain

But we must be sadistic

Because you feel the same

For me

But I’m too weak to be cold

And the story’s getting old

I get too drunk and bear my soul

And although I’m feeling stressed

I can’t imagine the mess that’s going on

Inside your head

Because you love me

And you love her too

What’s a boy to do?

Because you love me

And you love her too

What’s a boy to do?

And she’s what you think you need

She’s sensible and funny

But you’d be so happy

With me

But I won’t steal you away

I’m done with being a snake

You’ve gotta figure it out

Your own way

But you took me by surprise

Now look into my eyes

And tell me we’re not magnetised

And even if it’s not with me

I hope that you find peace

Because she can’t make you that happy

Because you love me

And you love her too

What’s a boy to do?

Because you love me

And you love her too

What’s a boy to do?

Finders keepers

Losers weepers

And I cried and I cried

When you went home that night

And I’ve had too much to drink

And I’ve had too much to think

And it goes over and over and over

Because you love her

And everything hurts

I didn’t mean to make everything worse

Because you love me

And you love her too

What’s a boy to do?

I couldn't feel

Anymore trapped than I already do

Stuck inside

Stuck inside this state of mind with you

And yet you only smile like I'm your friend

But now my happiness depends on how well I pretend

I know I'm bound to this fixation for as long as I stay here

Sometimes I wish I could just leave, so you can come running after me

And the perfect world we're after always seems to disappear

I wish that we could find a way to make it out of here

Can we forget that we are bound by all these ropes and strings that ties up like this

And when we wake up, we can't go back to the world that only wants us to be friends

And I hope that when I sing you're looking up at me (looking up at me)

So you can see my eyes are filled with hope for what could be (for what could be)

I know I'm bound to this fixation for as long as I stay here

Sometimes I wish I could just leave, so you can come running after me

And the perfect world we're after always seems to disappear

I wish that we could find a way to make it out of here

But that would mean that all we've done would simply go to waste

I'm trying to convince myself we're better off this way

Because you only smile I'm your friend

I wish someone would shake this out of me or shake it into you

I know I'm bound to this fixation for as long as I stay here

Sometimes I wish I could just leave, so you can come running after me

And the perfect world we're after always seems to disappear

I wish we could find a way to make it out of here

Yet you only smile like I'm your friend

But now my happiness depends on how well I pretend

Шоу-бизнес

Это «индустрия развлечений» в узком смысле слова, то есть, исключая игровые автоматы, луна-парки и т.д. Кинематограф, театральные представления, телевизионные ревю и, конечно, популярная музыка — шоу-бизнес. Нас в первую очередь интересует музыкальная епархия, которая называется просто: «музыкальный бизнес». Основные источники прибылей в «музыкальном бизнесе»: продажа дисков, кассет, видеокассет и проведение гастролей. Кроме того, существует множество «побочных» статей дохода, связанных с продажей музыкальных инструментов и сувениров, с авторскими правами и рекламой. Все эти звенья увязаны в единый отлаженный комплекс, существующий в тесном симбиозе с прессой, ТВ, радио, электронной промышленностью, модой, издательствами и т. д. Каждая акция в «муз. бизнесе» порождает широкий «фронт работ». Например, к выходу долгоиграющей пластинки непременно приурочиваются: большое концертное турне; выход маленькой пластинки (сингла) и видеоклипа к ней; производство сувениров (маек, плакатов, буклетов) для распродажи во время турне; рекламная кампания в прессе, на радио и ТВ. Пренебрежение любым из этих элементов ставит под сомнение успех всего предприятия в целом. Из этой грубой схемы видно, почему существует такой огромный разрыв в популярности и доходах между артистами «высшей лиги» и всеми остальными: чтобы много зарабатывать, надо много вкладывать, а это могут себе позволить относительно немногие. По общему мнению, успех в «музыкальном бизнесе» все больше зависит от целенаправленных инвестиций и все меньше — от реального таланта исполнителей. Вершители дел в шоу-бизнесе — гигантские межнациональные корпорации, покрывающие сразу несколько смежных отраслей; как правило, это музыка, кино и электронная аппаратура. Статистика свидетельствует, что прибыли в шоу-бизнесе неуклонно растут: скажем, в США по доходам с «индустрией развлечений» может соперничать только военно-промышленный комплекс...
Ferris Wheel

Ferris Wheel is a song by Emma Blackery. It serves at the 8th song of her Early Demo Tracks album.

## Lyrics

I saw your lines all written down

I read them twice and turned around

I went to walk away

And then you came to me and said

You know I've never been that good at words

Won't you give me a second to explain

I looked at you and rolled my eyes

Expecting to see through your lies

Instead I saw you staring back

You took a step and held my hand

And there you stayed and said the words

"I've never known another girl like you"

And since that day I've never let you go

And since that day I've never let you

Now we're holding on to what we have

What everyone else throws away

Make the most of every moment

Thankful for each day you know

That you are worth your weight in gold to me

Walked along the beach that day

And watched the tide rush in and go

We jumped into a ferris wheel

And watched the world below

You know that you are worth your weight in gold to me

And since that day I've never let you go

Waking up to you is all I know

Never break this spell I'm under

This will be the perfect summer

And since that day I've never let you
Undercover Lover

**"Undercover Lover"** is a song by the British singer & songwriter *Emma Blackery*. It is the fourth track from her third EP, *Perfect*, and was released on **November 11, 2014**, alongside the EP. It is 2:44 in length and was released under Fireflight Records.

## **Background**

## **Lyrics**

When we first met

You used to call me baby

You said you love me

Now I barely hear a word you're saying

And when your friends ask if you and me are dating

You're looking guilty, shuffling your feet and hesitating

Well fuck that, I don't need that

Don't want it to get out?

Well you should be damn proud

It's getting dark here sitting in your closet

With your other skeletons like I'm some kinda secret

Don't wanna be your Undercover Lover

Don't wanna be your friend, and kiss you when the night ends

Don't wanna be your dirty little secret

I want the world to know who's hotel you go to

Don't understand why you wanna keep it quiet

If it was me I'd be starting fucking riots,

If you can't handle who I am, then get the fuck out

I'm not hanging around for something I could do without

I will admit that, from the very beginning

You said you didn't want to give a reason for gossiping

I just feel like a puppet with a mouthpiece

So won't you cut the strings, so I can stop pretending?

Don't wanna be your Undercover Lover

Don't wanna be your friend, and kiss you when the night ends

Don't wanna be your dirty little secret

I want the world to know who's hotel you go to

Don't understand why you wanna keep it quiet

If it was me I'd be starting fucking riots,

If you can't handle who I am, then get the fuck out

I'm not hanging around for something I could do without

Don't wanna be your Undercover Lover

Don't wanna be your friend, and kiss you when the night ends

Don't wanna be your dirty little secret

I want the world to know

(I want the world to know)

Don't wanna be your Undercover Lover

Don't wanna be your friend, and kiss you when the night ends

Don't wanna be your dirty little secret

I want the world to know who's hotel you go to

Don't understand why you wanna keep it quiet

If it was me I'd be starting fucking riots,

If you can't handle who I am, then get the fuck out

I'm not hanging around for someone I could do without

Софт-рок

Буквально —«мягкий рок». Был крайне популярен, прежде всего в США, в 1969—1974 годах. Представлял собой хорошо аранжированный мелодичный фолк-рок. От сентиментальных баллад эстрадного плана софт-рок отличался скорее содержанием (отголоски «левого» пафоса), нежели формой. Известнейшие представители направления — группа «Брэд», дуэты «Саймон и Гарфанкел» и «Карпентерз», авторы-исполнители Джони Митчелл, Кэрол Кинг и Джеймс Тейлор. В середине 70-х годов «содержательные» аспекты софт-рока окончательно утратили актуальность, а функции негромкой, приятной, «полуфоновой» музыки взяла на себя «филадельфийская» разновидность диско.
Альтернативный рок

Термин иногда используется для обозначения относительно небольшой части рок-музыки, которая радикально противостоит шоу-бизнесу. Представители «альтернативного рока» записываются на «независимых» фирмах, стоят, как правило, на левых позициях и исполняют некоммерческую музыку. Весь «альтернативный рок» можно приблизительно разбить на два клана. Первый — исполнители авангардно-экспериментальной рок-музыки. Здесь ведущая роль принадлежит организации «Рок в опозиции», созданной еще в середине 70-х годов музыкантами английского ансабля «Генри Коу» и объединяющей теперь несколько десятков групп из многих стран Европы и Америки (в том числе советские —«Не ждали», «Зга», «Вежливый отказ»). Второй клан — «левые» панк-ансабли. Они, как правило, группируются вокруг своих кооперативных фирм грамзаписи и активно сотрудничают с местными прогрессивными организациями. Некоторые советские группы («Аукцион», «Джунгли», «Звуки Му») с успехом выступали на «альтернативных» фестивалях.

Институты шоу-бизнеса не оказывают «альтернативным» музыкантам никакой поддержки; все — выпуск грампластинок, организация гастрольных поездок и т. д.— осуществляется ими за собственный счет. «Большая» пресса, радио (за редким исключением) и ТВ для них практически закрыты. В результате, творчество этих исполнителей знает лишь достаточно узкий круг единомышленников и энтузиастов. Такова плата за бескомпромиссность.
