tori kelly - all in my head

[Verse 1]
I see you with her and it crushes me inside
Guess I should stop thinking about you all the time
Maybe this is what I needed maybe this is a sign
Maybe I've been blind to reality baby tell me

[Chorus]
Every little glance my way
Every time you wanted to hang
You seem so interested
Could you tell me was it real or was it all in my head
Was it real or was it all in my head

[Verse 2]
She's so pretty you two look so great
Time for me to move on now it was probably just a silly crush anyway
But I just cant help but think that we, we could've been something
Have I really been blind to reality baby tell me

[Chorus]
Every little glance my way
Every time you wanted to hang
You seem so interested
Could you tell me was it real or was it all in my head
Was it real or was it all in my head

[Bridge]
Was it real or was it fake?
Was it all a mistake?
Boy, I just gotta know was it all in my head, all in my head?
Did you ever feel the same?
Was my mind just playing games?
Boy, I just gotta know was it all in my head, all in my head?

[Chorus]
Every little glance my way
Every time you wanted to hang
You seem so interested
Could you tell me was it real or was it all in my head in my head
Was it real or was it all in my head.

tori kelly - should ve been us

Walk around with my head down,
But I can't hide with these high heels on
Downtown in the thick crowd,
But it?s just you that my mind is on
Dressed up, got my heart messed up,
You got yours and I got mine
Its unfair that I still care
And I wonder where you are tonight

Thinkin it could be different,
Maybe we missed it
Thinkin it could be different,
It could, it could

It should've been us, should've been a fire,
Should've been the perfect storm
It should've been us,
Could've been the real thing,
Now we'll never know for sure
We we're crazy, but amazing,
Baby we both know
It should've been us, us
It, it, it should've been us

Back and forth like a tug o? war,
What's it all for; do I want it back
Still got a little flame for ya,
Even tho you drove me mad
Now and then, I pretend
That it's you when I close my eyes
You got yours, I got mine
But I wonder where you are tonight

It should've been us,
Should've been a fire, should've been
The perfect storm it should've been us,
Could've been the real thing,
Now we'll never know for sure
We we're crazy, but amazing,
Baby we both know it should've been us, us
It, it, it should've been us

Oh oh oh-oh
It should?ve been us
Oh oh oh-oh, oh oh oh-oh

Thinkin it could be different,
Maybe we missed it
Thinkin it could be different,
It could, it could

It should've been us,
Should've been a fire, should've been
The perfect storm it should've been us,
Could've been the real thing,
Now we'll never know for sure
We we're crazy, but amazing,
Baby we both know it should've been us, us
It, it, it should've been us

Oh oh oh-oh
It should?ve been us

tori kelly - paper hearts

Remember the way you made me feel
Such young love but
Something in me knew that it was real
Frozen in my head

Pictures I?m living through for now
Trying to remember all the good times
Our life was cutting through so loud
Memories are playing in my dull mind
I hate this part paper hearts
And I?ll hold a piece of yours
Don?t think I would just forget about it
Hoping that you won?t forget about it

Everything is gray under these skies
Wear mascara
Hiding every cloud under a smile
When there?s cameras
And I just can?t reach out to tell you
That I always wonder what you?re up to

Pictures I?m living through for now
Trying to remember all the good times
Our life was cutting through so loud
Memories are playing in my dull mind
I hate this part paper hearts
And I?ll hold a piece of yours
Don?t think I would just forget about it
Hoping that you won?t forget

I live through pictures as if I was right there by your side
But you?ll be good without me and if I could just give it some time
I?ll be alright

Goodbye love you flew right by

Pictures I?m living through for now
Trying to remember all the good times
Our life was cutting through so loud
Memories are playing in my dull mind
I hate this part paper hearts
And I?ll hold a piece of yours
Don?t think I would just forget about it
Hoping that you won?t forget

tori kelly - stained

[Verse 1:]
Whatever your searching for
You won't find it here
But I must admit something keeps
pulling me back into your atmosphere
I'm really good at mistakes
All the marks I left on the page
They seem to never wanna disappear

[Hook:]
Why do you still come around?
When all I do is push, push, push you away
I really wanna take a chance on you but I
I hesitate

[Chorus:]
I'm afraid to start
Don't wanna break your heart
Just finish picking up the pieces from this mess
I never meant to hurt nobody
But now I tend to move slowly
Cause if I ever slip on your fingertips
My name would be stained on your list

(Oh ooh woah, Oh ooh woah x3)

[Verse 2:]
Feels like everybodies watching
To see what my next move is
Do I proceed with caution or do I just dive in?
But I'm fine with taking it slow
Enjoy life on my own
But I can be confusing sometimes, I know

[Hook:]
I'm suprise your still around
Baby all I do is push, push, push you away
I really wanna take a chance on you but I
I need to make sure this isn't just a phase

[Chorus:]
I'm afraid to start
Don't wanna break your heart
Just finish picking up the pieces from this mess
I never meant to hurt nobody
But now I tend to move slowly
Cause if I ever slip on your fiinger tips
My name would be stained

[Chorus:]
I'm afraid to start
Don't wanna break your heart
Just finish picking up the pieces from this mess
I never meant to hurt nobody
But now I tend to move slowly
Cause if I ever slip on your fiinger tips
My name would be stained on your list

(Oh ooh woah, Oh ooh woah [x4])

[Bridge:]
Ain't nothing wrong with taking my time with love
I don't wanna be the bad guy again [2x]
Still working up the kinks in my tainted love
Colors bleed out from my heart to his
Different shades that I can't I predict
Nothing wrong with taking my time with love (love)

tori kelly - city dove

Don't know what it's all about
But every time I look around
All I see is how we're holdin' on
Don't ask me what's wrong or right
I don't even know the time
All I know is I'm holdin' on

I haven't figured anything out
I haven't figured anything, anything, anything out

City dove, fly between the buildings and fences
Soft inside but rough on the edges
Waiting here for something to come just holdin' on
Oooh,
City dove, fly between the stars and the headlights
Passin' by the clouds and the street signs
Knowing that there's something to come, just holdin' on

I don't really know my fate
I just know I'm on my way
There will be mistakes movin' on
Try to get to the heart of it
Fly low but lookin' for Heaven
I know, I know I'm holding on

Won't figure everything out
Never figure everything everything everything out

City dove, fly between the buildings and fences
Soft inside but rough on the edges
Waiting here for something to come just holdin' on
Oooh,
City dove, fly between the stars and the headlights
Passin' by the clouds and the street signs
Knowing that there's something to come, just holdin' on
Oh, oh yeah, oh, knowing that there's something to come, just holdin' on, on
Fly between the stars and the headlights
Passin' by the clouds and the street signs
Knowing that there's something to come, just holdin' on, on

tori kelly - daydream

Hold on to anything just so don?t crash
Fought off the empty lies that once ruled your past
Right when you think you?ve won jump three steps back
So now you find yourself stuck in your own trap
They try to dirty up your name
But it?s all a game
Baby you don?t have to know exactly who you are
Because figuring it all out could be the best part

Don?t quit your daydream
Don?t forget to breathe
Who you want to be is only up to you
Sometimes you may crawl
Let them think that you?re small
Cause it?s so worth the fall when you land where you want to

Tried almost everything still spinning around
But one thing you haven?t tried is erase every doubt
Keep both feet on the ground while your head?s in the cloud
And when you feel like giving up listen to these sounds
And make sure you

Don?t quit your daydream
Don?t forget to breathe
Who you want to be is only up to you
Sometimes you may crawl
Let them think that you?re small
Cause it?s so worth the fall when you land where you want to

You don?t have to know exactly
Who you are just let your lead
It?s so worth the trials that you?re going through
So just enjoy the fall when you land where you want to

Don?t quit your daydream
Don?t forget to breathe
Who you want to be is only up to you
Sometimes you may crawl
Let them think that you?re small
Cause it?s so worth the fall when you land where you want to

Baby you don?t have to know exactly who you are
Because figuring it all out could be the best part

tori kelly - upside down

You have flipped my view
Yeah, I?m not used to these changes
All these brand new feelings I can?t explain
But somehow I like it

And if I, find out
That you feel, the same way
As I do, I will love you
As soon as I can stand up straight, ohh

You got me walking sideways
Spinning all around
Dizzy because you flip my world
Upside down
Upside down

I?ve been so confused
I wouldn?t normally fall for someone quite like you
I?m tripping over my own thoughts
But baby I really like you a lot

(I wonder if you feel the same)
If you feel the same way
(I wouldn?t know just what to do)
Cause I can?t even stand up straight

Can somebody tell me why I feel this way
24/7 you?re always on my brain
I can?t really put my finger on it but
(You got me so twisted)

I?ve had crushes before, but it?s not the same
Something different about you, I can?t explain
Baby you?re making me insane
(You got me so twisted)

tori kelly - bring me home

I've been so lost
Wandering in the dark
I feel secluded
Lonely, disconnected

This is me standing here
Saying I need you
Lavish me with your love
I thrive off of you
I try to live alone
But you always bring me home

Calling your name
Reaching out for your warm embrace
I feel so safe
Your love is like visual sound
Like a dream so vivid

This is me standing here
Saying I need you
Lavish me with your love
I thrive off of you
I try to live alone
But you always bring me home

You always bring me back where I belong
You always pull me back into your arms
Everytime I'm with you, it's like I'm brand new [repeat]
I feel so free, you're all I need

This is me standing here
Saying I need you
Lavish me with your love
I thrive off of you
I try to live alone
But you always bring me home

tori kelly - treasure

I was not waiting for your love before
It was out on this shore doubt laid
I never really get this feeling in my chest

It?s a new day to discover
So many things to uncover
Even when the tide is high
Out here it?s just you and I
Perfect how we fit together
Being around you is a pleasure
Like the way gold lasts forever
I feel like I found my treasure

When I first fell into those deep blues in your eyes
I thought I would be fine cuz
I never really get this feeling in my chest

It?s a new day to discover
So many things to uncover
Even when the tide is high
Out here it?s just you and I
Perfect how we fit together
Being around you is a pleasure
Like the way gold lasts forever
I feel like I found my treasure

I wasn?t even looking for you
My skies were already blue
Now you what I hold on to
These eyes are fixed on you
When did love come into play
I could never turn away now

It?s a new day to discover
So many things to uncover
Even when the tide is high
Out here it?s just you and I
Perfect how we fit together
Being around you is a pleasure
Like the way gold lasts forever
I feel like I found my treasure

Like the way gold lasts forever
I feel like I found my treasure

Like the way gold lasts forever
I feel like I found my treasure

tori kelly - unbreakable smile

La da da da dee, you?re not breaking me
La de da da da da da da
Somebody told me fame is a disease
You start singing the blues when
You start seeing the green
But I think it's all about what you choose
The way you live your life depends on you
That's when I realized
I wanna make a difference
Change other people's lives

Give hope even for a moment
Use my name for good
And change the game I could
Because to make you think I got to act a certain way
Be a little bit insane, live a little it's okay
I guess we have different definitions
Of living, but you'll twist my words anyway
You say that I'm naive, like I don't have a past
You're the one being deceived, I see right behind the mask
Tryna to stir me up and get me mad
I smile because happiness is all I have

So, la da da da dee, you?re not breaking me
La de da da da, ain?t got time for ya
La da da da dee, you won?t shatter me
La de da da da, got an unbreakable smile
You see me hanging with my fam
But that don't mean I'm living in a bubble
You find me at church, but that don't mean I can't cause trouble
So rap a little, sing cause isn't that what you want?

For me to mess up so you can dress up some story
Saying "tori, this will sell more records"
But I?d rather make them yawn than
Be a pawn on your chessboard
Call me boring, call me cookie cutter
Call me what you wanna matter of fact
But say it loud and don't st-stutter

Cause I know who I am, yeah, I'm still the same
Just a california girl with big dreams
Thinking: Maybe, they'll let me sing songs about real things
And, baby, who knows?
Maybe I could sell out shows without taking off my clothes
God made me sexy I don't care if only I know
So, la da da da dee, you?re not breaking me, no
La de da da da, ain?t got time for ya
I'm singing, la da da da dee, you won?t shatter me
La de da da da, got an unbreakable smile

And I'll just keep on singing
Oh, o-oh you can't take my smile from me
Yeah, ouoh I ain't got no time for you baby oh no
You're not breaking me no more
La de da da da got an unbreakeble smile
Yeah, ooooh
I might be smiling, yes
But don't mistake kindness for weakness, ooooh

tori kelly - talk

People talk, people talk
But they don't wanna say what they're really trying to say
Hopes and fears, smoke and mirrors
Save all the thinking, words by themselves they just fade

People run, people walk
But they don't ever see past the world that they're in
So if it's talk that you want from me then maybe you should let me in

Oh, you keep saying you won't let me go
Oh, you keep saying what I've heard before
Talk

Playing with empty hearts,
leading words felt like they're just going nowhere now
So if it's talk that you want from me then maybe you should let me in

Oh, you keep saying you won't let me go
Oh, you keep saying what I've heard before
Oh, you keep saying you won't let me go

All I hear is talk
Keep talking to me like, keep talking to me like
I know all about you, know all about you
Keep talking to me like, keep talking to me like
Know all about you, know all about you

You keep saying you won't let me go
Talk
Oh, you keep saying you won't let me go
Talk
Oh, you keep saying you won't let me go
Talk
You keep saying things I've heard before babe
Heard before babe
Talk

tori kelly - eyelashes

We?ve met a few times, 3 or 4 times, they all went by much too fast
Eyes were so locked, led to small talk, wanting each moment to last
I can do this, tried to focus, but it?s so hard for me to see past
Your beauty, yeah mostly, all I could get out was a laugh

[Chorus 1:]
There are no words to say whenever you are near
I try to be myself but she just disappears
I?m nothing like those other girls, I am so weird
Cause I don?t bite my lip, or bat my eyes
When you walk by, when you walk by

You?re a star and everyone knows, maybe thats why I can never get close
I can barely remember most of what was said during our last
Conversation, overthinkin?, still so hard for me to see past
Your beauty, call me crazy but maybe you?d like get to know me, baby

[Chorus 2:]
There are no words to say whenever you are near
I try to be myself but she just disappears
But boy I promise you will see that I?m sincere
Hope I?ll get another try
When you walk by, when you walk by

[Bridge:]
I?m not very flirtatious
I?m not gonna blow kisses
I don?t bat my eyelashes
I?m not very flirtatious
I?m not gonna blow kisses
I don?t bat my eyelashes
I have nothing to lose, so how could it go wrong
But it?s so much easier to sing it in a song

[Chorus 1]

[Bridge]

tori kelly - rocket

If I could build a rocket I would
Put all my dreams inside it I would
Maybe I could travel far into something new
Hang onto a shooting star bursting into view
Just me and my fickle heart lonely never felt so right
I would go anywhere tonight

If I could be a pilot I would
Unlock the sky see what?s inside it I would
Cuz everyone?s out doing things and I?m stuck in my room
But if this bed grew some wings then what could I not do
Just me and my fickle heart lonely never felt so right
I would go anywhere tonight

Oooooh
Oooooh

If I could build a rocket I would
I would go anywhere tonight
I would go anywhere tonight
Mmhhmm
I would go anywhere

tori kelly - personal

What am I gonna do with this heart?
Catching all these bad arrows and darts
I don't wanna be lonely, but I know what I want
Maybe this train has run out of steam
Cuz there's nothing but nothing between you and me
I don't wanna see you lonely, but I know what I want
And it ain't you no more

Spend my whole life looking for the one I could call
Wasted all my time on you, trying to make this beautiful
But it's clear to see, you don't love me at all
Baby, go ahead and say it. I won't take it personal
If you don't stop to count your blessings
One day you'll wake up and find them missing
I don't wanna leave you lonely
But you gotta know what you want

If you want a love that's only pretend
Baby you should've bought a barbie and ken
Well my heart's not a toy to play with
Now it knows what it wants
And it ain't you no more
Spend my whole life looking for the one I could call
Wasted all my time on you, trying to make this beautiful
But it's clear to see, you don't love me at all
Baby, go ahead and say it. I won't take it personal

But then again maybe I will, but we do it all for the thrill
Does part of you love me still?
No scratch that, say goodbye seal the deal
Real is what you want now don't ya?
But I'm not the one now for ya
This was already over before it began so walk away

I spend my whole life looking for the one I could call
Wasted all my time on you, trying to make this beautiful
But it's clear to see, you don't love me at all
Baby, go ahead and say it. I won't take it personal
Wasted all my time on you, trying to make this beautiful
But it's clear to see, you don't love me at all
Baby, go ahead and say it. I won't take it personal
I don't want to be lonely, I know what I want

tori kelly - lullaby

[Tori Kelly]

All the times I have layed in your light
Only love kept me safe through the night
All the time I was sure you were mine
And before time demands our goodbye
Can you sing me a last lullaby?

[Professor Green]
It's been a while since I last dreamt
Barely remember what it's like to dream
Finding it hard to get to sleep, too stressed
And there ain't anyone to sing a lullaby to me
Pretend shit doesn't get to me
And I suffer in silence when I'm hurting
A man's problems are his own
And it's my burden
Tossing and turning, trying to get to sleep
But I find it hard to switch off when my mind's working
I ponder on things I shouldn't ponder on
Off the rails, my train of thought's wandering
Sick of pretending to be so happy
All the while my anxiety's away at me
My skin crawling, I look up to the sky
And it falls, the walls close in and it's
As if all the good in my life disappears
In an instant, that thing is just so distant
So seeing the ones who I love, the ones who love me
But I don't wanna tell em how I feel in case they judge me
It's just me, wish I could let somebody in
But I ain't ever been too trusting

[Tori Kelly]

All the times I have layed in your light
Only love kept me safe through the night
All the time I was sure you were mine
And before time demands our goodbye
Can you sing me a last lullaby?

[Professor Green]

I've barely had any sleep when I get up
Sick of all these nightmares and these night terrors
Like it's only when I'm in heaven that I sleep better
Might sleep better when I get up, I'm weak
t just makes my day harder, I wonder if
It would've been any different if I had a father that I knew
Could it have helped shape the way that I grew?
But the point of things I never have went from
Being a reason for the things that I do
To just being an excuse that I'd use
I've gotta take responsibility for the things I do
Find something other than negativity for my fuel
But I feed off it, even when I don't seem bothered
I hide everything that's going on inside
Guess it's been a while since I've been honest, I need help
But I deny it and even lie to myself like I'm fine

[Tori Kelly]

All the times I have layed in your light
Only love kept me safe through the night
All the time I was sure you were mine
And before time demands our goodbye
Can you sing me a last lullaby?

I just wish someone would tell me it would be Ok
But pessimism leads me to believe that it won't
To see even a glimmer of hope in the darkness
Is hard and depression is a slippery slope
I don't wanna do what my dad did with a rope, though
So I carry on even though it's hard to
The only thing that's definite is death
and things always change
As long as you give em a chance to

[Tori Kelly]

All the times I have layed in your light
Only love kept me safe through the night
All the time I was sure you were mine
And before time demands our goodbye
Can you sing me a last lullaby?
(Can you sing me a last lullaby?)
