Katy McAllister has been hiding in her parent’s living room for the past 18 years writing and singing songs for her mom, dad and sisters. It wasn't until October of 2009 when Katy decided to pursue her musical dream.
Katy recently hooked up with local musician/producer Tyler Ward to record her debut single, "Here's To The Heartbreakers" a song that sarcastically toasts boys who are not man enough for relationships.
"This girl is going to be the next Colbie Caillat or Taylor Swift," says Tyler. "Her song writing is unreal and her voice is incredibly unique"
Be sure to follow Katy as she puts her life experience into undeniably catchy songs. And before you know it, you will be saying, "I knew Katy when..."
"Here's to the Heartbreakers"
So here is to the heartbreakers
Who are so good at hiding all the evidence of them pretending.
All along who were we kidding?
V1)
You think that it is over,
When did it ever begin?
Don't pretend like he was ever interested.
He may have had you fooled by,
The way he looked into your eyes.
But no he really looked right through, through it all.
He could swear he never meant it,
Act like you're overreacting,
But he's the tool who shouldn't have been acting.
How are they the ones attracting us?
CHORUS 1
Here's to the heartbreakers
Who are so good at hiding all the evidence of them pretending.
All along who were we kidding?
I could find a man and not a boy.
Yeah you'll see what you're missing.
Yes I'm fine now, thanks for asking.
Here's to the fakers
Here's to the heartbreakers!
V2)
You try to play his games but
Then you're the one who's being confusing.
He'll keep using that old line,
You could just tell me you don't have the time.
But no, you wanna leave me hanging.
What's the point in all of my waiting?
I'm the one who's noticing you,
Guess that makes me obsessed with you.
I turn your flaws into beauty,
And you're seeing this as a bad thing.
Are you kidding me?
Yeah well, you're the one who'll be missing me.
CHORUS 2
So here is to the heartbreakers
Who are so good at keeping us around
While still keeping our confidence down.
Do you feel as if you own me?
I could find a man and not a boy.
Yeah you'll see what you're missing.
Yes I'm fine now, thanks for asking.
Here's to the takers
Here's to the heartbreakers!
BRIDGE
This is the story of a girl who builds her own thoughts.
She has the faith that he'll be more than what she only thinks she wants.
She's seen the bitter truth
But when someone is looking right at you,
It's hard to see through the lying eyes
When you're mesmerized.
Yeah I'm mesmerized.
So here's to you, the heartbreaker
Who was so good at hiding all the evidence of your pretending.
All along who was I kidding?
And now for you, the heartbreaker
Who was so good at keeping me around
While still keeping my confidence down.
Well you'll never own me.
You'll never even have me...
Yeah.
Cause I could find a man and not a boy.
Yes you'll soon see what you're missing.
Did you get what you came for?
Yeah, you're a heartbreaker.
Let me give you a little more! :)
You know who you are... this one's for you.
"All Eyes On You"
V1)
You've got the money.
You've got the clothes.
You think you've got it good,
Well do you mind if I impose?
Plaster on your smile
So you can try to prove that you feel fine
Well deep inside, you're made so thin.
And when you were on the other side
You manipulated life
So you could have your way.
To be so dependent on a man,
Well that's just so lame.
CHORUS
You're nothing complex.
Yes I can figure you out.
You're just jealous.
That's why you're out and about.
And it's sad to see such a beauty turn into ugly
When you open your mouth.
It's a game,
But you can play it well.
It's a shame
I will be going to hell for this.
But you can thank me one day; the eyes are on you now.
The eyes are on you now.
V2)
Damn that girl is gorgeous,
And what an innocent smile to match.
It's almost as if that face of makeup was about to detach. ha.
Girl you're not so charming, because
Slipping into bed isn't the way to a man's heart.
I guess you've never had to work that hard.
And when I realized you weren't even worth the stress,
It all blew up in my face, yeah you caused this mess.
And you got me, yeah girl you got me.
But look at you now.
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Flaunt your clothes.
Flaunt your boyfriend.
You're not so important.
Look at you now.
You're nothing complex.
Yeah we all figured you out.
You're just jealous.
And you're just so insecure.
It's sad to see such a beauty turn into ugly
When it opens it's mouth.
It's a game, it's a game.
Look at you now. Look at you now.
Isn't this what you wanted?
The eyes are on you now. :)
"Resist"
Consider me gone by morning.
I know what you want so I won’t hang around as you let me down.
I’d consider you wrong, but I’m the fool
To keep letting you come around just to let me down.
And I let it get this far.
But you had me from the start.
Feels like a lifetime in fact.
Still we keep coming back.
CHORUS
It’s the same routine, just a different scene.
And I don’t believe in resisting.
It’s the same old stunt, just a different month.
And you’ve noticed that I can’t resist.
Can’t get over this.
I’ll see you around next time you let me down.
I don’t expect a response my darling,
After you get what you want, so I won’t hang around for you to let me down.
So I put up these walls my darling,
And I say that I’m done, but you know better now. You’ll still let me down.
I don’t see this getting better, going anywhere,
Cause I’ve always been in way too deep.
And you know me better. I’m bad at this whole resisting thing.
CHORUS
It’s easier to make mistakes than to make you stay away.
It’s easier for my heart to break, than to feel nothing at all.
It’s better to let you be a fake for one night
I will close my eyes, and pretend like I don’t die a little inside.
CHORUS
I just can’t resist.
And I don’t believe in resisting.
Just a different month that I fell in love.
Next time, next time you let me down.
I’ll see you around next time you let me down.
So I put up these walls my darling,
And I say that I’m done, but you know better by now.
You’ll still let me down.
