E n t i t l e d
I'm an amnesiac, forgot what it's like, to be happy.
Some kind of maniac, that'll follow you around when I know you don't want me.
I was so blind, don't ask, don't care. Open my eyes, now I see, there's...

Something that I've been entitled to, for too long, too long, too long.
Something that I've been missing, uh-oh-ohhhhh.
Shame on you, but shame on me, too.
I liked it in the dark, feeling all around 'til I fell and stumbled,
but now I've got a spark, gonna light a fire and watch it crumble.
I wasn't free, always in cuffs, no more asleep ... Now I woke up too

Something that I've been entitled to, for too long, too long, too long.
Something that I've been missing, uh-oh-ohhhhh.
Shame on you, but shame on me too.
I've played, in love, and its got, to end. I was, in love, but I won't, pretend it.
Something that I've been entitled to, something that I'll never find in you.
Shame on you, but shame on me, too

I was able to get a physical copy at Best Buy. I recommend calling ahead (there were only three at my store).

It's very simple and "indie" packaging lol but I love it. Her lyrics are so concise yet poignant. Love everything.

LittleღMermaid · 10-27-2014, 11:40 AM

I actually have to pick up a computer part from Best Buy in a few hours so I'll keep an eye out for it.

it's perfect, i'm so proud of her.

the one that really stood out to me on first listen was definitely blue afternoon.

it's been on repeat all day.

omg crackhead.

tftnt

I'm still in love with L.A and dreaming.

And the album is apparently already on #37 on iTunes!

I'm sure that it would be higher if people in other countries could buy it.

ripe to fall · 10-27-2014, 02:43 PM

WHORA.

i want the lyrics, i can't quite understand some.

tried googling them but people have been slacking.

WOW THAT'S AMAZING

hope she does even better!!

LittleღMermaid · 10-27-2014, 02:45 PM

It's doing pretty good for only being available in the few places it is.

I've seen a few people on twitter who don't even know her saying they're a fan now because of the album

I've been obsessed with that song since I heard it three years ago. However, I didn't expect it to be about blue eyes. SWOON. Such beautiful lyrics.

ugh same. I really, really want the lyrics for the songs. It would make my life so much easier.

I hope so too! She deserves all the attention and success. I would love the album to get in top 10.

i only really remembered heartstrings from that time, which i'm still in love with, it's so good.

yes! that's what i like to hear. i think it has that sound that would appeal to a wider range of audience, not just a specific group.

so fingers crossed for more people getting into her!

i really want at least top 10, too, rora.

21:21 · 10-27-2014, 04:12 PM

I managed to somehow buy the album on itunes

LittleღMermaid · 10-27-2014, 07:30 PM

One person didn't even know she was an actress. She's gaining a whole new fanbase

iTunes is working against me. I couldn't remember my security answer questions so they locked me out for 8 hours

Aww I didn't know that.

Moozanna · 10-27-2014, 07:53 PM

Album available on amazon. Lyrics are available online. (try a-z lyrics or Metro lyrics)

I'm so happy the album is FINALLY out and I love it.
