Blinking Light
Words and music by Audra Brown
I don’t know much about my car
The sounds, the signals
The abbreviations on the dash
But there’s this light
It’s insistent, it’s persistent and
It’s getting worse all of the time
It’s blinking, It’s flashing
It’s trying to tell me something
But the truth is
I don’t know
And I don’t know exactly
What you want to hear from me
But you won’t hear it today
There are some other things
Where do I start?
Some explanations
And this place beside my heart
The beating, the thumping
I don’t quite understand it
It’s racing, it’s pacing
And I just can’t command it
I’d like to say it’s getting better all the time
But it’s not, it’s getting worse
And I’d like to tell you
That I am feeling fine
But I’m not, I’m feeling hurt
I don’t know much about my car
The sounds, the signals
The abbreviations on the dash
But there’s this light
It’s insistent, it’s persistent and
It’s getting worse all of the time
It’s blinking, It’s flashing
It’s trying to tell me something
But the truth is
I don’t know…and it’s killing me
And I don’t know exactly
What you want to hear from me
But you won’t hear it today
There are some other things
Where do I start?
Some explanations
And this place beside my heart
The beating, the thumping
I don’t quite understand it
It’s racing, it’s pacing
And I just can’t command it
I’d like to say it’s getting better all the time
But it’s not, it’s getting worse
And I’d like to tell you
That I am feeling fine
But I’m not, I’m feeling hurt
I’d like to say it’s getting better all the time
But it’s not, it’s getting worse
And I’d like to tell you
That I am feeling fine
But I’m not, I’m feeling oh so hurt

Nitro
Words and music by Audra Brown and Alleigh Brown
Said hot like nitroglycerin
Feed me like some adrenalin
And I’ll be your queen
Step under the caution tape
Be everything you know you ain’t
Nothings quite as it seems
No I don’t really care about the life you’ve been wasting
No I don’t really care what you do
No I don’t give a damn about the words that you’re abusing right now
I don’t give a damn about you
Now I got things that you can’t touch
Don’t get too close, you won’t get much
You act you’re seventeen
Sweet like boys that I can’t see
Mean like boys that act like me
Don’t you know what I mean
No I don’t really care about the life you’ve been wasting
No I don’t really care what you do
No I don’t give a damn about the words that you’re abusing right now
I don’t give a damn about you
Now I don’t really know why you say you care about me
But baby you’re probably wrong
Now I don’t really know what you think you see
But you’ll be leaving singing the same old song
Step under the caution tape
Be everything you know you ain’t
Then you’ll give me a call
Realize I’m your surprise
I won’t be far from sacrifice
And I won’t be there for your fall
No I don’t really care about the life you’ve been wasting
No I don’t really care what you do
No I don’t give a damn about the words that you’re abusing right now
I don’t give a damn about you

The Truth
Words and music by Audra Brown
The validity of your obscurity is most certainly at risk
What will you do when they all find out the truth about you
Oh no! Tsk Tsk
You’re busted baby!
Yeah, yeah, we all know the truth
The only one you’re fooling now is you
Yeah, yeah, we all know the truth
The only one you’re fooling now is you
And after all I gave, I have nothing left to say to you
You could have saved it all, instead you threw it all away
You locked the door in my face, threw my things on the lawn
I only paid for half of it but I’ll gladly keep it all
Yeah, yeah, we all know the truth
The only one you’re fooling now is you
Yeah, yeah, we all know the truth
The only one you’re fooling now is you
Well, you yelled and you screamed
And you told me I was mean
But baby, look who’s yelling
And you yelled and you screamed
And you told me I was mean
But baby, look who’s yelling
And you yelled and you screamed
And you told me I was mean
But baby, look who’s yelling
And you yelled and you screamed
And you told me I was mean
But I’m not the one who’s yelling am I?
Yeah, yeah, we all know the truth
The only one you’re fooling now is you
Yeah, yeah, we all know the truth
The only one you’re fooling now is you

Somebody Help Me
Words and music by Audra Brown
I don’t know just what should be said
I don’t know just what to regret
But you say that you can help me
You say that you understand
You say that you know and that you’re in command
Somebody help me
Somebody help me
Somebody help me
Somebody help me
You act like you know you have the right
You talk like you never been here with such fright
But I say that I can help you
I say that I understand
I say that I know that this time I’m the one in command
Somebody help me
Somebody help me
Somebody help me
Somebody help me
She talks like she knows that she’s your type
She talks like she knows that she is right for you
You say that you can help her
You say that you understand
You say that you know and that you’re always in command
Somebody help me
Somebody help me
Somebody help me
Somebody help me

Live What You Want
Words and music by Audra Brown
Live what you want
Want what you live
And don’t give up
If you don’t, if you don’t want to
Then you don’t have to
It’s not a comedy
It’s not a parody of life
It’s what you make it
So don’t you fake it
It’s not a tragedy
It’s not a pill you take
Let’s not despair
Who really cares?
Live what you want
Want what you live
And don’t give up
If you don’t, if you don’t want to
Then you don’t have to
And we’re not actors
But this world’s a stage
And we all know it
But we’re here anyway
It’s just a game
It’s all how you play it
You draw card and
Try hard to portray it
Live what you want
Want what you live
And don’t give up
If you don’t, if you don’t want to
Then you don’t have to
Try to roll a seven
Double down on eleven
Or maybe not
Just play the cards you got
Live what you want
Want what you live
And don’t give up
If you don’t, if you don’t want to
Then you don’t have to
Live what you want
Want what you live
And don’t give up
If you don’t, if you don’t want to
Then why should you?
