Alec Benjamin – Outrunning Karma
Outrunning karma, that boy
He's such a charmer, all the
Bugs and their larva follow
Him out to Colorado
Ten-dozen hearts in a bag
Their bodies lyin', he'll drag
Them down to Colorado
A modern desperado
And he'll race for miles through the night
He runs because he knows he cannot hide
He's never gonna make it, all the
Poor people he's forsaken, karma
Is always gonna chase him for his lies
It's just a game of waiting from the
Church steeple down to Satan karma
There's really no escape until he dies
Outrunning karma, that boy
Can't run no farther, it's the
Last days of Sparta, follow
Him down to meet Apollo
And he'll brace for battle in the night
He'll fight because he knows he cannot hide
He's never gonna make it, all the
Poor people he's forsaken, karma
Is always gonna chase him for his lies
It's just a game of waiting from the
Church steeple down to Satan karma
There's really no escape until he dies
La-la-la, la la, la-la-la, la la
La-la-la, la la, la la
La-la-la, la la, la-la-la, la la
La-la-la, la la, la la
He's never gonna make it, all the
Poor people he's forsaken, karma
Is always gonna chase him for his lies
It's just a game of waiting from the
Church steeple down to Satan karma
There's really no escape until he dies
La-la-la, la la, la-la-la, la la
La-la-la, la la, la la

One Republic – West Coast
I've been dreamin' 'bout the West Coast (I've been dreamin')
Found some faces that I don't know (I've been dreamin' about it)
Give me the sun for just a year
I'll kiss the sky and disappear
I've been starin' up at the greyest skies
Tryin' to find myself some luck, but it's runnin' dry
It's like the weather makes the worst of my cloudy mind
I could really use a dose of some paradise
Sometimes you gotta run from a broken heart
Before I turn into a ghost, need a brand new start
Get myself headed to the coast, man, it ain't that far
Yeah, they got sun in LA and some shinin' stars
I've been dreamin' 'bout the West Coast (I've been dreamin')
Found some faces that I don't know (I've been dreamin' about it)
I'm seein' signs for California
Trade the shade for somethin' warmer
I've been dreamin' 'bout the West Coast (I've been dreamin')
Where the people take it real slow (I've been dreamin' about it)
I need the sun for just a year
I'll kiss the sky and disappear
Ain't felt a drop now for forty days
But still they're washing cars and they don't show any age
Ain't nothin' that you want'll cost you more than time
If you're tryna find yourself, better get in line
I'm countin' up my money and spendin' to get it right
Got the future in my pocket, I'm spendin' it all tonight
Like a prophet with the vision, I finally see the light
And you know
I've been dreamin' 'bout the West Coast (I've been dreamin')
Found some faces that I don't know (I've been dreamin' about it)
I'm seein' signs for California
Trade the shade for somethin' warmer
I've been dreamin' 'bout the West Coast (I've been dreamin')
Where the people take it real slow (I've been dreamin' about it)
I need the sun for just a year
I'll kiss the sky and disappear, the West Coast
Glitter nights under starry skies
All I wanna do is fly
Take me where the sun shines brighter
I've been dreamin' 'bout the West Coast
Time to find myself a new glow
I need the sun for just a year
I'll kiss the sky and disappear

📔dig your heels in
📋Meaning
to refuse to change your plans or ideas, especially when someone is trying to persuade you to do so.
🤔For example ⬇️
🗣 Even though the developer offered them more than their houses were worth, the owners dug their heels in and refused to sell up and make way for the office block.
🗣When their record company told the band to change their style and make more commercial music, the band dug their heels in and refused to change.

A Different kind of love ✨
I'm not the guy looking for the perfect lover
The kind of love you're only seeing in a novel
I wasn't waiting for some shiny unicorn
Out of thin air
Heralding a new dawn but
All of sudden, you're the hero of my story
I'll celebrate our love in all its stormy glory
I still remember the way this whole thing started
I was roaming around the city
Feeling down and brokenhearted
But then I guess
All roads lead to Rome
A full-front collision
On my way home
I cut a corner then we
Hit and crash
That crash has been the first
And hasn't been the last
Cause it's a different kind of love
From any other
Old school dating is a bore
We're explorers
It's a different kind of love
And everyone is looking
Like we are crazy people
Just escaped from the looney
Sometimes I feel that you are from another planet
The way you're attracting small disasters like a magnet
And I don't know if you're from outer space
But I can't tell you girl that I'm enjoying the race
Because I knew
When we hit and crashed
My crazy love circus
Was here at last
This is romantic
In a very funny way
I know our kind of love
Is the one made to stay
Cause it's a different kind of love
From any other
Old school dating is a bore
We're explorers
Cause it's a different kind of love
And everyone is looking
Like we are crazy people
Just escaped from the looney
The way that you talk
The way that you move
You make fun of me
While I make fun of you
But we always fit
Precise like a glove
