Won't decide, but he won't debate
Said, "Thanks my friend," but he was too late
Oh why, oh why
I don't know
So you think things move pretty fast down here
Well just wait my dear 'till you look up there
Oh maybe someday you'll know
Had his second kid, was an early night
Got to be well dressed 'cause he hates to fly
Oh loves his job, takes it home
Anything they wanted
They could have it, have it
Didn't even notice
I don't mind it, mind it
Won't decide, but he won't debate
Said, "Thanks my friend, thought that we was dead"
Oh why, oh why
I don't know
Think things move pretty fast down here
But just wait my dear 'till we get up there
Oh maybe someday they'll know
Come on tell me does she wander
Roam when he comes
Or does he just know how to leave
When it gets cold
Well I don't care, I don't care
'Cause it's free
Oooooh
Some people think they're always right
Others are quiet and uptight
Others they seem so very nice nice nice nice nice oh oh
Inside they might feel sad and wrong
Oh no
29 different attributes
And only 7 that you like, uh oh
20 ways to see the world, oh oh
Or 20 ways to start a fight
Oh, don't, don't, don't
Get up
I can't see the sunshine
I'll be waiting for you baby
'Cause I'm through
Sit me down
Shut me up
I'll calm down
And I'll get along with you
Ooooooo-ooooo-ooooooh
Oh, men don't notice what they got
Women think of that a lot
1000 ways to please your man oh oh
Not even one requires a plan. I know
Countless odd religions too
It doesn't matter which you choose
One stubborn way to turn your back
This I've tried, and now refuse
Oh don't don't don't
Get up
I can't see the sunshine
I'll be waiting for you, baby
'Cause I'm through
Sit me down
Shut me up
I'll calm down
And I'll get along with you
Alright..
Shut me up
Shut me up up up up up
And I'll get along with you...
Sing me a song, you can be
Tell me a tale, just like me
Don't turn it my way, Happy and free
I'll turn it to shit, Happy and free
Oh ooh
All that I do is wait for you
All that I do is wait for you
I can't get along with all your friends
Don't know how to act
That's all there is
Why do I accept the things you say?
You know what to change
But not in what way
How long must I wait?
How long must I wait?
How long must I wait?
How long must I wait?
How long must I wait?
I am not you, we could have
I'm almost through, great success
It's about time, such a success
That you came through, at no expense
Oh ooh
All that I do is wait for you
All that I do is wait for you
I can't get away from all your friends
I'm not coming back
That's all there is
Why do I accept the things you say?
You know what to change
But not in what way
How long must I wait?
How long must I wait?
How long must I wait?
How long must I wait?
How long must I wait?
I think I know what you mean but watch what you say
'cause they'll be try to knock you down in some way
Sometimes it feels like the world is falling asleep
How do you wake someone up from inside a dream?
Your mind would wander and searched for its place in the night
Your body followed this feeling like following light
Once that your music was born it followed you 'round
And then it gave your activities meaning and let you be loud
You're sad but you smile
It not in your eyes
Your eyeballs won't change
It's the muscles around your eyes
An egg to fertilize
A pulse to stabilize
A body to deodorize
A life to scrutinize
A child to criticize
Young adults to modernize
Citizens to terrorize
Generations to desensitize
You're dreams are sweet and obsessed
And your overworked
You're overtaken by visions of being overlooked
How disappointed would D.(ead) I.(dealistic) D.(esperate) I.(nventor) P.(ioneer) P.(hilosophers)
Be to see such power in our hands all wasted on greed
Am I a prisoner to instincts?
Or do my thoughts just live
As free and detached
As boats to the dock?
Just like when music was born
And detached from your heart
Is your free time to free minds
Or for falling apart?
Night after night
You turn out the light
You don't fall asleep right away
"Are we... are we done?"
A desk to organize
A product to advertise
A market to monopolize
Movie stars you idolize
Leaders to scandalize
Enemies to neutralize
No time to apologize
Fury to tranquilize
Weapons to synchronize
Cities to vapor-i
Two can be complete without the rest of the world
Two can be complete without the rest of the world
Do it for the people that have died for your sake
An entire generation that has nothing to say
How'd yoo make your way to me?
Let's say you made a deal with me
And I got your name and your home address
And you're all trashed up with your big red belt
I would almost say that you might need help
I could drop you off at the next red light
If it don't make sense or it don't feel right
All the girls could never make me love them the way I love you
Can't you see the sky is not the limit no more?
I can see the elevator crashed the floor
I can still see yesterday sailing away
Seven billion people who got nothing to say
Are you coming on to me?
I saw your face then I heard that song
It was so inviting it hurt my bones
Well it looks like you but your eyes are grey
And your hair is gone but your mind's okay
Yes I like your smile but your forehead's cold
I don't want you to be afraid and go
I would cheat and lie and steal now I'll stay at home and kneel for you
I was waiting
For my baby, to arrive
Right by my side
Oh please
Leave me alone tonight
Forget the past
Two can be complete without the rest of the world
Oh you know I said it just to get you to laugh
Do it for the people that have died for your sake
An entire generation of entertainers to blame
The light is red
The camera's on.
Get yourself a lawyer and a gun.
Hate your friend's new friends like everyone.
Childhood's end can be so competitive,
Oh sky's not the limit and your never gonna guess what is...
Oh, the razorblade, that's what I call love,
I bet you'd pick it up and mess around with it
If I put it down
It gets extremely complicated.
Anything to forget everything.
You've got to take me out,
At least once a week
Whether I'm in your arms,
Or I'm at your feet.
I know exactly what you're thinking
You won't say it now
But in your heart it's loud
Oh no, my feelings are more important than yours.
Oh, drop dead, I don't care, I won't worry.
Let it go.
Oh, the razor blade,
Wish it would snap this rope
The world is in your hands
Or it's at your throat
At times it's not that complicated
Anything to forget everything.
He would never talk,
But he was not shy
She was a street-smart girl,
But she could not lie
They were perfect for each other
Say it now
'Cause in your heart it's loud
Oh no, my feelings are more important than yours
Oh, drop dead, I don't care, I won't worry
Hey!
Sweetheart, your feelings are more important of course
Of course
Everyone that wanted
Everything that we would take from them
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
No, don't.
Okay
Say a prayer now
Don't be scared now
You don't want trouble
We might get some
We might get some
It's troublesome
But don't you worry
You can help me
Killing lies
Killing lies
Killing lies
Killing lies
First you're worried
Then you're hurried
Don't think that everything is gonna stay the same
That's impossible
Before I let you go
Let me look at you
Don't you worry
You will help me
Killing lies
Killing lies
Killing lies
Killing lies
Oh yes I know you're still
Oh yes I notice you
You are a friend of mine
You are a friend of mine
Everybody sees me
But its not that easy
Standing in the lightfield
Standing in the lightfield
Waiting for some action
Waiting for some action
Why wont you come over here
Why wont you come over here
We've got a city to love
Why wont you come over here
We've got a city to love
Old time grudges
Will die so slowly
I know you miss the
Way I saw you
And cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
Nobody can see me
Everythings too easy
Standing in the lightfield
Standing in the lightfield
Waiting for some actress
Waiting for some actress
To say
Why wont you come over here
Why wont you come over here
We've got a city to love
Why wont you come over here
We've got a city to love
Old time love song
Will die so swiftly
You never trust me
For a while
It was nice
But its time to say bye
Cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
NO NO NO
You're so cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
NO NO NO NO
You're so cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
Oh
You're so cold
I think I know what you mean but watch what you say
'cause they'll be try to knock you down in some way
Sometimes it feels like the world is falling asleep

Well I don't feel better
When I'm fucking around
And I don't write better
When I'm stuck in the ground
So don't teach me a lesson
Cause I've already learned
Yeah the sun will be shining
And my children will burn
Oh the heart beats in its cage
I don't want what you want
I don't feel what you feel
See I'm stuck in a city
But I belong in a field
Yeah we got left, left, left, left, left, left, left
Now it's three in the morning and you're eating alone
Oh the heart beats in its cage
All our friends, they're laughing at us
All of those you loved you mistrust
Help me I'm just not quite myself
Look around there's no one else left
I went to the concert and I fought through the crowd
Guess I got too excited when I thought you were around
Oh he gets left, left, left, left, left, left, left
I'm sorry you were thinking; I would steal your fire.
The heart beats in its cage
Yes the heart beats in its cage
Alright
And the heart beats in its cage
Right, wrong, what to do?
Someday it will come to you
Hostile indians
We named our summer camp for you
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I'm in utter dismay
I've got nothing to say
Harmless children
We named our soldiers after you
Don't be a coconut
God is trying to talk to you
We could drag it out
But that's for other bands to do
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to give
Got no reason to live
But I will fight to survive
I've got nothing to hide
Wish I wasn't so shy
I'd like to watch
I'd like to read
I'd like a part
I'd like the lead
But
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to give
Got no reason to live
But I'll kill to survive
I've got nothing to hide
Wish I wasn't so shy
She was still sleeping; the problem will stay
One more day
Said she's not sorry the wind blows her way
Accidents happen, there's one planned today
Oh you see...
I wish it was not true
But that's the way it is
It's not your fault
That's the way it is
I'm sick of you
And that's the way it is
And will always be.
Wednesday is over, it's over again.
Said my goodbyes to the life we won't spend
Together...
I wish it was not true
But that's the way it is
It's not your fault
That's the way it is
I'm sick of you
And that's the way it is
But that's not your problem
That's not a problem
That's not my problem
That's not your problem.
Talk to me now I'm older
Your friends'll do cuz I told her
Friday night's a bit lonely
Change your plans and then phone me
We could go and get forties
Fuck going to that party
Oh really, your folks are away now?
Alright, let's go
You convinced me
12:51 is the time my voice
found the words I sought
Is it this stage I want?
The world is shutting up for us
Oh we were tense for sure
But we was confident
Kiss me now that I'm older
I won't try to control you
Friday night's a bit lonely
Take it slow but don't warn me
We'd go out and get forties
Then we'd go to some party
Oh really, your folks are away now?
Alright I'm coming,
I'll be right there
Now we're out of time
I said it's my fault
It's my fault
Can't make good decisions
It won't stop
I can't stop
Give me some time, I just need a little time
Give me some time, I just need a little time
Give me some time, I just need a little time
Give me some time, I just need a little time
You talk way too much
You talk way too much
It's only the end
It's only the end...hey.
We don't get the news
He says why not?
Why not?
Forget what you heard
'Cause it won't stop
it won't stop
Give 'em some time, They just need a little time
Give 'em some time, They just need a little time
Give 'em some time, They just need a little time
Give 'em some time, They just need a little time
You talk way too much
You talk way too much
It's only the end
It's only the end as you know it...
'You're not supposed to say that
you taught me too much'
Is this how it ends?
Is this how it ends?
You said you couldn't stay
You've seen it all before, I know
And sold you on their way
Oh honey that's ok
No harm, he's armed
Settin' off all your alarms
When I find out
I hope it's you who set this trap
And stuffers rarely change
At least I'm on my own again instead of
Anywhere with you
Oh tell me it's all the same
And I've lost my place again
I know this is surreal
But I'll try my luck with you
This life is on my side
Oh I am your one
Believe me, this is a chance
Oh, oh
Let's see what is for sale
He's trying not to give his job a chance
It's never gonna be
It's sad, but I agree
The signals don't seem right
It lasts for just one night, and then
I'm sorry that I said
That we were just good friends
No harm, he's armed
Set it off all your alarms
Entranced, I can't
Be here in time I'll think about that
And I've lost my page again
I know this is surreal
But I'll try my luck with you
This life is on my side
Well I am your one
Believe me, this is a chance
Oh, oh
Oh with strangers to impress so near
Old friends don't realize I'm here
I wish two drinks where always in me
I'd pretend I had the perfect day
Take me to the water
Make me understand
That I was wrong
For me tomorrow is my first day
So please don't tempt me in the wrong way
It's almost after midnight
I can see the city lights, we're here.
Change your mind tonight
You belong to the city now
and you're closer now, I know
You belong on the radio
I swear I'll give it back tomorrow
But for now I think that I'll just borrow
All the chords from that song
And all the words from that other song I heard
Yesterday
Change your mind tonight
You belong to the city now
And you're closer now, I know
You belong on the radio
I will not disturb you
I was just returning you a compliment
Soma is what they would take when hard times opened their eyes
Saw pain in a new way
High stakes for a few names
Racing with the sunbeams
Loosing against their dreams
In our eyes
I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes,
Said I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
Let's go
When I saw her for the first time
Lips moved as her eyes closed
Heard something in his voice
'And I'll be there' he says
And he walks out
Somehow he was trying too hard
To be like them
I am
Stop
And go
In your eyes
And I am
Stop
Oh darling let me go
Try it once and they liked it
(They) Try to hide it
Said I've been doing this twenty five years
Well I'm not listening no more
And his friends they keep asking for more
Oh yeah
Oh but that's it
Last nite she said
Oh baby I feel so down
When you turn me off
When I feel left out
So I, I turned round
Oh baby don't care no more
I know this for sure
I'm walking out that door
Well I've been in town for just about fifteen minutes now
And baby I feel so down
And I don't know why
I've been walking for miles
And people they don't understand
Your girlfriends they can't understand
Your grandsons they won't understand
On top of this I ain't ever gonna understand
Last nite she said
Oh baby don't feel so down
When you turn me off
When I feel left out
So I, I turned round,
Oh baby gonna be alright
It was a great big lie
Coz I left that night
Yeah
Oh people they don't understand
No girlfriends they don't understand
In spaceships they won't understand
And me I ain't ever gonna understand
Last nite she said
Oh baby I feel so down
She could turn me off
When I feel left out
So I turned round
Oh little girl I don't care no more
I know it's for sure
I'm walking out that door, yeah
Last nite she said
Oh baby I feel so down
When you turn me off
When I feel left out
So I, I turned round
Oh baby don't care no more
I know this for sure
I'm walking out that door
Well I've been in town for just about fifteen minutes now
And baby I feel so down
And I don't know why
I've been walking for miles
And people they don't understand
Your girlfriends they can't understand
Your grandsons they won't understand
On top of this I ain't ever gonna understand
Last nite she said
Oh baby don't feel so down
When you turn me off
When I feel left out
So I, I turned round,
Oh baby gonna be alright
It was a great big lie
Coz I left that night
Yeah
Oh people they don't understand
No girlfriends they don't understand
In spaceships they won't understand
And me I ain't ever gonna understand
Last nite she said
Oh baby I feel so down
She could turn me off
When I feel left out
So I turned round
Oh little girl I don't care no more
I know it's for sure
I'm walking out that door, yeah
Can't you see I'm trying, I don't even like it
I just lie to get to your apartment
Now I'm staying there just for a while
I can't think 'cause I'm just way too tired
Is this it
Is this it
Is this it
Said they'd give you anything you ever wanted
When they lied I knew they were just stable
Children trying hard not to realise I was sitting right behind
Dear can't you see, it's them it's not me
We're not enimies, we just disagree
If I was like him, all dissing his Pa
He changes his mind, says I went too far
We all disagree I think we should disagree, yeah
Is this it
Is this it
Is this it
Can't you see I'm trying, I don't even like it
I just lie to get to your apartment
Now I'm staying there just for a while
I can't think 'cause I'm just way too tired
How did anybody find out where I was?
How did anybody find that out
I was hiding from the world, I was a squirrel
You chopped down my tree to get my fur
Fear of sleep
Fear of sleep
Fear of sleep
Fear of sleep
Fear of sleep
Fear of sleep
Ooh Fear of sleep
Can't you wait
I'm not done
Fear of sleep
Here you come
Fall asleep [x3]
You're no fun [x10]
I guess everybody's week must have been pretty rough
Cause everybody's drunk, loud and pissed off
I know you hate to be impressed with someone else (other than yourself)
But you know trying to hold back on being an asshole helps
Fear of sleep
Fear of sleep
Fear of sleep
Fear of sleep
Where'd you go?
Fear of sleep
Ooh Fear of sleep
So you know
I'm not done
Here we go
Here you come
Fall asleep [x3]
You're no fun [x17]
They love you or they hate you
But they will never let you be
They thrill you or sedate you
But they will never let you see
In the evening sun
In the evening sun
Encourage and deranged you
Watch you walking scared alone
Despite intimidation
Pleased to watch you dance along
In the evening sun
In the evening sun
Go your separate way now
Someday you'll come back and I'll be dreaming I was sunburned
I don't want to break your heart in
Break your heart in two halves
Keep one half and give one half to me
I like the summer - miss the summer
Tell me, what'd you do? Nothing? Me too...
All actors they're pretending
And singers they sometimes lie
Oh kids are always honest
Cause they don't think they're ever gonna die
You're the prettiest smartest captain of the team
I love you more than being seventeen
In the evening sun
In the evening sun
So many fish there in the sea
I wanted you, you wanted me
That's just a phase, it's got to pass
I was a train moving too fast
Didn't understand what to see
Yeah, then I got a different view
It's you...no.
Wait, I'm gonna give it a break.
I'm not you friend,
I never was.
I said wait, I'm gonna give it a break.
I'm not your friend,
I never was.
So many fish there in the sea
She wanted him, he wanted me
That's just a phase, it's got to pass
I was a train moving too fast
Yeah, I know you warned me
But this is too important
Now I got a different view
It's you...
Why can't you wait?
I'm gonna give it a break
I'm not you friend,
I never was
I said wait, I'm gonna give it a break
I'm not you friend,
I never was.
No choice now
It's too late
Let him go
He gave up
I gave up
Lisa said take time for me
Dropping him down
To his knees
Ah, chest down
Take me away
See, I've got to explain
Things they have changed
In such a permanent way
Life seems unreal
Can we go back to your place?
Oh, you drink too much
Makes me drink just the same
People tried
Felt so right
Giving themselves good advice
Looking down sometimes felt nice
He knows it's justified to kill to survive
He then in dollars makes more dead than alive
Let's suck more blood
Let's run three hours a day
The world is over but I don't care
'Cause I am with you
Now I've got to explain
Things they have changed
In such a permanent way
Life seems unreal
Can we go back to your place?
Oh, you drink too much
Makes me drink just the same
The first time it happened too fast
The second time I thought it would last
We all like it a little different
Razor blade, that's what I call love
I bet you pick it up and mess around with it
If I put it down
It gets extremely complicated
Anything to forget everything
You got to take me out
At least once a week
Either I'm in your arms
Or I'm at your feet
I know exactly what you're thinking
You won't say it now
But in your heart it's love
Oh, my feelings are more important than yours
Oh, drop dead, I don't care, I won't worry
Let it go
Oh, the razor blade
Wish it would snap this rope
The world is in your hands
Or it's at your throat
At times it's not that complicated
Anything to forget everything
He would never talk
But he was not shy
She was a street-smart girl
But she could not lie
They were perfect for each other
Say it now
Cause in your heart it's loud
Oh, my feelings are more important than yours
Oh, drop dead, I don't care, I won't worry
Sweetheart
Your tears are more important of course
Of course
Everyone you wanted
Everything that we would take from them
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know
Tell me, tell me, tell me
Oh, don't, okay
I'm tired of everyone I know
Of everyone I see
On the street
And on TV, yeah
On the other side
On the other side
Nobody's waiting for me
On the other side
I hate them all, I hate them all
I hate myself
For hating them
so I'll drink some more
I'll love them all
I'll drink even more
I'll hate them even more than I did before
On the other side
On the other side
Nobody's waiting for me
On the other side
Here we go
I remember when you came
You taught me how to sing
Now, it seems so far away
You taught me how to sing
I'm tired of being so judgemental
Of everyone
I will not go to sleep
I will train my eyes to see
That my mind is as blind as a branch on a tree
On the other side
On the other side
I know what's waiting for me
On the other side
On the other side
On the other side
I know you're waiting for me
On the other side
Here in the streets so mechanised
Rise to the bottom of the meaning of life
Studied all the rules didn't want no part
But I let you in just to break this heart
Even though it was only one night
It was fucking strange
Nina's in the bedroom
She said time to go now
But leavin' it ain't easy
I got to let go
I got to let go
And the hours they ran slow
I said everynight she just can't stop sayin'
New York City cops
New York City cops
New York City cops
They ain't too smart
New York City cops
New York City cops
New York City cops
They ain't too smart
Well, kill me now, I let you down
I swear one day we're gonna leave this town
Stop
Yes I'm leavin'
'Cause it just won't work
They act like Romans
But they dress like Turks
Sometime, in your prime
See me, I like the summertime
Nina's in the bedroom
She said time to go now
But leavin' it ain't easy
I got to let go
I got to let go
Trapped in an apartment
She would not let them get her
She wrote it in a letter
I got to come clean
The authorities they've seen

I said everynight every night, I just can't stop sayin'
New York City cops
New York City cops
New York City cops
They ain't too smart
New York City cops
New York City cops
New York City cops
They ain't too smart
That was you up on the mountain
All alone and all surrounded
Walking on the ground you're breaking
Laughing at the life you're wasting
1 - 2 tries won't do it
You do it all your life and you never get through it
Everything they had to say
Had been erased in just one day
'Good try
We don't like it'
'Good try
We won't take that shit.'
I can't win.
Things in bars that people do
When no one wants to talk to you
Failing can be quite a breeze, he
Told me that these girls were easy
Happy that you said you'd mount me
Felt unlucky when you found me
Some nights come up empty handed
Yes, I'll take it
Wait now
By the sidewalk
Hold on
Yes, I'll be right back.
I can't win.
Yeah, I
Wait for something
'Cool it
We won't take that shit'
'Good try
We don't like it'
-Hold on,
Yes, I'll be right back.

I want to be forgotten,
and I don't want to be reminded.
You say 'please don't make this harder.'
No, I won't yet.
I wanna be beside her.
She wanna be admired.
You say 'please don't make this harder.'
No, I won't yet.
Oh dear, is it really all true?
Did they offend us and they want it to sound new?
Top ten ideas for countdown shows...
Whose culture is this and does anybody know?
I wait and tell myself 'life ain't chess,'
But no one comes in and yes, you're alone...
You don't miss me, I know.
Oh Tennessee, what did you write?
I come together in the middle of the night.
Oh that's an ending that I can't write, 'cause
I've got you to let me down.
I want to be forgotten,
and I don't want to be reminded.
You say 'please don't make this harder.'
No, I won't yet.
I want to be beside her.
She wanna be admired.
You say 'please don't make this harder.'
No, I won't yet...
I don't want to waste your time,
I don't want to waste your time.
I just want to say -
I've got to say,
We worked hard, darling
We don't have no control
We're under control
I don't want to do it your way,
I don't want to do it your way.
I don't want to give it to you, your way.
I don't want to know...
I don't want to change your mind,
I don't want to change the world.
I just want to watch it go by.
I just want to watch you go by.
We were yound, darling
We don't have no control
We're out of control
I don't want to do it your way,
I don't want to do it your way.
I don't want to give it to you, your way.
I don't want to know...
I don't want to change your mind,
I don't want to waste your time.
I just want to know you're alright.
I've got to know you're alright;
You are young, darling
For now, but not for long
Under control.

He seemed impressed by the way you came in
Tell us a story, I know you're not boring...
I was afraid that you would not insist
You sound so sleepy, just take this - now leave me
I said please dont slow me down
Am I going too fast?
You're in a strange part of our town...
Yeah, the nights not over
You're not trying hard enough
Our lives are changing lanes
Ah, throw me off the road
The weight is over and I'm taking over
You're not longer laughing
You're not driving fast enough
(Guitar Solo)
Now everytime that I look at myself
I thought I told ya this world is not for ya
I said please don't slow me down
Am I going too fast?
You're in a strange part of our town
Yeah, the nights not over
You're not trying hard enough
Our lives are changing lanes
Ah, throw me off the road
The weight is over and I'm taking over
You're not longer laughing
You're not driving fast enough
Up on a hill, here's where we begin
This little story, long time ago
Stop to pretend, stop pretending
Its seems this game is simply never ending
In the sun, sun having fun, its in my blood
I just cant help it, don't want you to say no
Let me go
Let me go go go go go go go
Leaving just in time, stayed here for a while
Rolling in the ocean, trying to catch her eye
Work hard and say its easy, do it just to please me
Tomorrow will be different so I'll pretend
I'll pretend I'm leaving
I feel so different here, we trained at AVA
I wish you had've stayed,
My visions clearer now but I'm unafraid
Flying overseas, no time to feel the breeze
Too many varieties
Well in the sun, sun having fun, its in my blood
I just cant help it, don't want you here right now
Let me go, oh owww
Let me go go go go go go go
Leaving just in time, stay there for a while
Rolling in the ocean, trying to catch her eye
Work hard and say its easy, do it just to please me
Tomorrow will be different and this is why I'm leaving
Up on a hill is where we begin
This little story a long time ago
Stop to pretend, stop pretending
It seems this game is simply never-ending
In the sun, sun having fun
It's in my blood
I just can't help it
Don't want you to say, 'No'
Let me go, oh, let me g-g-g-g-g-g-go
Leavin' just in time
Stay there for a while
Rolling in the ocean
Trying to catch her eye
Work hard and say it's easy
Do it just to please me
Tomorrow it is different
So I'll pretend, I'll pretend I'm leaving
Our fears are different here
We train in A-V-A
I wish you hadn't stayed
My vision's clearer now, but I'm unafraid
Flying overseas, no time to feel the breeze
Too many varieties
Well, in the sun, sun having fun
It's in my blood
I just can't help it
Don't want you here right now
Let me go
Oh, let me g-g-g-g-g-g-go
Leaving just in time
Stay there for a while
Rolling in the ocean
Trying to catch her eye
Work hard and say it's easy
Do it just to please me
Tomorrow it is different
So this is why I'm leaving
Up on a hill, here's where we begin
This little story, a long time ago
Start to pretend, start pretending
It seems this game is simply neverending
Oh in the sun sun having fun, it's in my blood
I just can't help it, don't want you here right now
Let me go
Let me go go go go go go go go
Leaving just in time
Stay there for a while
Rolling in the ocean
Trying to catch her eye
Work hard and say it's easy
Do it just to please me
Tomorrow will be different
So I'll pretend i'm leaving
I feel so different now
We trained at AVA
I wish you hadn't stayed
My visions clearer now but I'm unafraid
Flyin' over seas, no time to feel the breeze
I took too many varieties
Oh in the sun sun having fun, it's in my blood
I just can't help it, don't want you here right now
Let me go, wooooooooo
Darling let me go go go go go go go go
Leaving just in time
Stay there for a while
Rolling in the ocean
Trying to catch her eye
Work hard and say it's easy
Do it just to please me
Tomorrow will be different
So this is why I'm leaving
One by one, ticking time bombs won
It's not the secret of the government
That;s keeping you dumb
Oh, it's the other way around - wait...
What's that sound?
One by one, baby, here they come.
He wants it easy; he want it relaxed
Said I can do alot of things, but I can't do that
Two steps forward, then three steps back
...Alright
'Won't you take a walk outside?'
-Oh no.
'Can't you find some other guy?'
-Oh no.
'1 9 6 9 what's that sound?'
-Oh no.
Keeping down the underground
Oh no...
The end has no end the end has no end
The end has no end the end has no end
He want it easy; he want it relaxed
Said I can do alot of things, but I can't do that
Two steps forward, then three steps back
It won't be easy
'Won't you take a walk outside?'
-Oh no.
'Can't you find some other guy?'
-Oh no.
'1 9 6 3 what's that sound?'
-Oh no.
Keeping down the underground
Oh no...
The end has no end the end has no end
The end has no end the end has no end
The end has no end the end has no end
The end has no end the end has no end...
Leave me alone
I'm in control
I'm in control
And girls act too much
And boys act too tough
Enough is enough
Were on the minds of other men I know she was
I said just take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
Oh just take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
Oh take it
I say, he's gonna let you down
He's gonna let you down
He's gonna let you down
And gonna break your back, for a chance
And gonna steal your friends, if he can
He's gonna win someday
I fell off the track
Now I can't go back
I'm not like that
Boys act too much
Girls act too tough
Enough is enough.
Well on the minds of other girls I know he was.
I said just take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
Oh just take it or leave it
And take it or leave it
Oh take it
I say, he's gonna let you down
He's gonna let you down
He's gonna let you down.
And gonna break your back, for a chance
And gonna steal your friends, if he can
He's gonna win someday
Oh he
In many ways they'll miss the good old days
Someday, someday
Yeah it hurts to say but I want you to stay
Sometimes, sometimes
When we was young oh man did we have fun
Always, always
Promises they break before they're made
Sometimes, sometimes
Oh, my ex says i'm lacking in depth
I will do my best
You say you wanna stay by my side
Darling your head's not right
I see alone we stand together we fall apart
Yeah, I think I'll be alright
I'm working so I won't have to try so hard
Tables they turn sometimes.
Oh someday.
I ain't wasting no more time.
Trying, trying.
And now my fears, they come to me in threes
So I, sometimes
They fade my friend, you say the strangest things
I find, sometimes
Oh, my ex says i'm lacking in depth
Say I will try my best
You say you wanna stay by my side
Darling your head's not right
I see alone we stand together we fall apart
Yeah, I think I'll be alright
I'm working so I won't have to try so hard
Tables they turn sometimes.
Oh someday
I ain't wasting no more time
He seemed impressed by the way you came in.
'Tell us a story
I know you're not boring'
I was afraid that you would not insist.
'You sound so sleepy
just take this, now leave me'
I said please don't slow me down
If I'm going too fast
You're in a strange part of our town...
Yeah, the night's not over
You're not trying hard enough,
Our lives are changing lanes
You ran me off the road,
The wait is over
I'm now taking over,
You're no longer laughing
I'm not drowning fast enough.
Now every time that I look at myself
'I thought I told you
this world is not for you'
The room is on fire as she's fixing her hair
'you sound so angry
just calm down, you found me'
I said please don't slow me down
If I'm going too fast
You're in a strange part of our town...
Yeah, the night's not over
You're not trying hard enough,
Our lives are changing lanes
You ran me off the road,
The wait is over
I'm now taking over,
You're no longer laughing
I'm not drowning fast enough.

Old fashion men always want a mistress
Modern girls always get their way

Everyone has the same opinion
Your turn is almost over
We won't get the chance to do this over right r-r-r-right

Always thinking bout yourself
Always thinking bout yourself
Always thinking bout yourself
Was I?
When they say promises
They mean promises.
They'd say, 'that's ok,
Long as we can celebrate'
You see, my uncle would say
things would change when he's dead...
'Meet me in the bathroom'
That's what she said
I don't mind...it's true.
Never was on time
Yes, I once was mine
Well, that was long ago
And darling, I don't mind.
Yeah, we were just two friends in lust
And baby, that just don't mean much
You trained me not to love
After you showed me what it was
Now she's staring wide-eyed
Can't close her eyes
Anywhere is fine
just don't waste my time
You see, my uncle would say
things would change once he's dead...
'Meet me in the bathroom'
That's what she said
I don't mind...it's true.
Never was on time
Yes, I once was mine
Well, that was long ago
And darling, I don't mind.
Yeah, they were just two fucks in lust
Baby, that just don't mean much
You trained me not to love
After you taught me what it was.
Last night she said, oh baby feel so down
when turn me off, when I feel left out
So I walked out
Oh little girl I don't care no more
I know this for sure, I'm walking out that door
Well I've been in time for now just about fifteen whole minutes now
Oh baby I feel so down, I cant help but try
I've been walking for miles
People they don't understand
Your girlfriends they cant understand
Your Grandsons they wont understand
On top of this, ain't ever going to understand
Last night she said, oh baby don't feel so down
When turn me off, when I feel left out
So I turned round
Oh baby going to be alright, it was a great big lie
Because I left that night, yea
Oh its alright baby, yea
And people they don't understand
No girlfriends they cant understand
In spaceships they wont understand
On top of this, ain't ever going to understand
Last night she said, oh baby I feel so down
When turn me off, when I feel left out
So I turned round
Oh little girl I don't care no more
I know this for sure, I'm running out that door, yea
Last night, she said:
'Oh, baby, I feel so down.
Oh it turns me off,
When I feel left out'
So I walked out:
'Little girl, I don't care no more
I know this for sure
I'm walking out that door'
Well, I've been in town for just now fifteen minutes now
And baby, I feel so down
And I don't know why
I keep walkin' for miles
And people they don't understand
No, girlfriends, they can't understand
Your Grandsons, they won't understand
On top of this, I ain't ever gonna understand...
Last night, she said:
'Oh, baby, don't feel so down.
Oh, it turns me off,
When I feel left out'
So I, I turned around:
'Oh, baby, gonna be alright'
It was a great big lie
'Cause I left that night, yeah
Oh it's alright, baby
Yeah!
And people they don't understand
No, girlfriends, they can't understand
In spaceships, they won't understand
And on top of this ain't ever gonna understand
Last night, she said:
'Oh, baby, don't feel so down.
Oh, it turns me off,
When I feel left out'
So I turned around:
'Little girl, I don't care no more
I know this for sure
I'm walking out that door'
Shut out, pimpled and angry
I quietly tied all my guts into knots
Gave up on trying to make them
I figured it take them too long to look up
and besides
It was undeniably clear to me I don't know why
When every other part of life
seemed locked behind shutters
I knew the worthless dregs we all are then
lucked out
found my favorite record
lying in wait at the birmingham mall
the songs that i heard
the occasional book
were the only fun i ever took
and i thought i was making myself
but the trick is just making yourself
but when they're parking their cars on your chest
you still got a veiw of the summer sky
to make it hurt twice when your restless body
caves to it's whims
and suddenly struggles to take flight...
three thousand miles northeast
i left all my friends at the morning bus stop
shaking their heads
"what kind of life you dream of? your allergic to love"
yes i know but i must say in my own defense
it's been undeniably clear to me i don't know why
when every other part of life
seemed locked behind shutters
i knew the worthless dregs we are
the selfless, loving saints we are
the melting, sliding dice we've always been.
Whether you're in LA
So yeah we're back in LA
Whether you're in New York
Where we're on your block
Whether you're in the Uk
Where the sky is dark
Where the grass in kinda green
Ya know like in Central Park
Well my favourite place in the whole wide world
It's got to be in the middle of the ocean, oh
I see you walking on the ocean, paradise on earth
You can hear people saying... What!?
Hawaii-EH!-OOohhoohhohh
OoOoooO ahhh la la la la
There was something different
Oh oh oh
A nuclear disaster might be on our way
But I don't care, I'm in the USA
Whether we're drunk or stoned
Or we're sober and old
If I'm with you I'm a happy man
If you could sit there bored
Whilst you count your gold
And your problem is you can't
Find your remote control
Cause you're my favourite person in this whole wide world
Is to be with a women who's been everywhere
Who walks the streets with me and makes me see the world
My favourite place...
Hawaii-EH!-OOohhoohhohh
We got it made
Ohhhh
Yes I know
Can we go
The plain will go !
Ohhhhhh
Whether you take it slow or you let me go
Whether you tell me something that I did not know
Whether you need me fire life or you scream and fight
But then you tell me something that I did not like
But so my favourite attitude in this world so far
Is a friendly spirit of an island ah
Like the way people are in this most special place
I don't care what happens I'm taking a plain
Hawaii Ha Aw Wa I E!!
Hawaii Ha Aw Wa I E!!
I said
Hawaii Ha Aw Wa I E!!
I said
Hawaii Ha Oh Aw I E!!
I said
Hawaii Ha Ow Wa I E!!
My mumma went away on a day and a night naked uh
Make it up!
Hawaii Ha Aw Wa I E!!
Ooo wa Ah Ie
Ah we Ei Wo Ah E
OooooOHhhhhhhhh ooo wowww
When I wanna go when I want something different
And in the end my father to me to this place back in who knows when (?)
And oh my god I'm in love
Oh my god what a place
Oh yeah, I confess I take
You in my soul
Whether you're in L.A.,
Sunny laid back L.A.
Whether you're in New York,
Comfort 'round your block.
Whether you're in the U.K.,
Where the sky is dark
And the grass is kinda green,
You know like Central Park.
Still my favorite place
In this whole wide world
Has got to be in the middle
of the ocean floor.
I see you poking out of the ocean.
Paradise on Earth.
The 50th state - WHAT?!
Hawaii.
I wanna live in somewhere different.
A nuclear distaster might be on our way.
But I don't care, I'm in the U.S.A.
Whether you're drunk or stoned
or we're sober and old,
If I'm with you
I'm a happy man.
if you feel safe and cold
while you count your gold.
if your problem is you can't find
your remote control.
still my favorite person
in this whole wide world
is the woman who can
understand every word
and when she speaks to me
she makes me
see the whole world
as my favorite place
Hawaii.
We got it made
Yes, i know.
can we go
by plane or boat.
whether you take it slow
or you let me go
whether you tell me something
that i did not know
whether you're neat and polite
or you scream and fight
whether you keep something from me
that i wouldn't like
still my favorite attitude
in this world so far
is the friendly spirit
of an iron heart
like the way folks are in
this most special place
i dont care what happens
i'm taking a plane to
hawaii
hawaii
hawaii
hawaii
hawaii
hawaii
hawaii
hawaii
kauai or oahu
molokai or lanai
maui and the big guy,
a.k.a. hawaii
cut off from malaysia
back in who knows when
oh we got kinda lost
but my god what a place
i profess
airforce jets
cannot take
away my soul
Was an honest man
Asked me for the phone
Tried to take control
Oh I don't see it that way
I don't see it that way
We shared some ideas
All obsessed with fame
Says we're all the same
I don't see it that way
I don't see it that way
Raised in Carolina
I'm not like that
Tryin' to remind her
When we go back
I missed the last bus
I'll take the next train
I try, but you see
It's hard to explain
I said the right things
But act the wrong way
I like it right here
But I cannot stay
I watched the TV
Forget what I'm told
Well I am too young
And they are too old
The joke is on you
This place is a zoo
You're right, it's true
He said he can't decide
I shake my head to say
Everythings just great
Oh I just can't remember
I just can't remember
Raised in Carolina (she says)
I'm not like that
Trying to remind her
When we go back
I say the right things
But act the wrong way
I like it right here
But I cannot stay
I watched the TV
Forget what I'm told
I am too young
And they are too old
I'll make it you see
I'm ever so pleased
Pretend to be nice
So I can be mean
I missed the last bus
I'll take the next train
I try, but you see
It's hard to explain
Knowing you
You'll wait for clear skies
To tell us how changes come about
With the sunlight
So we'll count every drop that falls
While you throw us some old line
This will pass, this will pass...
And I'm spending any time
Wasting any time
You will, that's all you ever wanted
And I'm spending any time
Wasting any time
You will, that's all you ever wanted
I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up
Oh, Momma running out of luck
Like my sister don't give a fuck
Oh his strange manners, I love 'em so
I wish you'd wear your new trench coat
I don't show up on weekdays
That's something that you learned yesterday
I just want to misbehave
I just want to be your slave
You ain't got nothing that I want but...
I want it all
I just can't figure out...
Nothin'
I wanna steal your innocence
To me my life it don't make sense
I took five dollars, won't get me far
My last resort is to steal your car
Drive you to work and you will be on time
Your little problems they're not yours, they're mine
Come on and listen to what I say
I've got some secrets that'll make you stay
I just want to turn you down
I just want to turn you around
Oh, you ain't got nothing I want but...
I want it all
I just can't figure out...
Nothin'
And all we said is 'I'm a freak'
He ordered them to make mistakes
And all together it went well
We may pretend we were best friends
Today the day that I was born
He won't leave me alone, he keeps asking for more
Together again, like the beginning
But for the record it's between you and me
I wanna steal your innocence
To me my life it don't make sense
Oh his strange manners, I love 'em so
Why won't he wear his new trench coat
I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up
Oh, Momma running out of luck
But like my sister don't give a fuck
I just want to turn you down
Maybe later I'll turn you around
You ain't never had nothing that I want but
I want it all, I just can't figure out...
Nothin'
And all we said is 'I'm a freak'
He ordered them to make mistakes
And all together it went well
We may pretend we were best friends
Today the day that I was born

'Drive you to work; you'll be on time
These little problems they're not yours and mine,'
'Come on and listen to what I say
I've got some secrets that'll make you stay'
I just want to turn you down
I just want to turn you around
Oh, you ain't got nothing I want, but...

Aw mama runnin' out of luck
Well like my sister don't give a fuck
I wanna steal your innocence
To me my life it don't make sense
Your strange manners, I love you so
Why won't you wear your new trench coat
I should've worked much harder
I should have just not bothered
I never show up on weekdays
Somethin' that you learned yesterday
Drive you to work, you'll be on time
Your little problems, they're not yours they're mine
Come on listen to what I say
I've got some secrets that'll make you stay
I just want to turn you down
I just want a turn you around
You ain't never had nothin' I wanted but
I want it all, I just can't figure out
Nothin'
And all together it went well
We made pretend we were best friends
Then she said 'Oh you're a freak'
They ordered me to make mistakes
Together again, like the beginnin'
It all works somehow in the end
The things we did the thing you hide
But for the record it's between you and I
I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up
Aw mama runnin' out of luck
Well like my sister don't give a fuck
I wanna steal your innocence
To me my life it just don't make any sense
Your strange manners I love them so
Why won't you wear your new trench coat
I just want to misbehave
I just want to be your slave
You ain't never had nothin' I wanted but
I want it all, I just can't figure out
Nothin'
And all together it went well
We made pretend we were best friends
Then she said 'Oh I can wait'
They ordered me to make mistakes
Together again, like the beginnin'
It all works somehow in the end
The things we did the thing you hide
But for the record it's between you and I
well we walked around
all through that day
and we couldnt find anything
(anything)

(yeah)

and im sorry about all that stuff i said
you think i said
but we know, we know that its true
baby baby, what about you?
(yeah)
and we walked around all through the day
the hidden ways of past gone days
and we never knew what to say
baby baby
So many fish, here in the sea
I wanted you, you wanted me
It's just a phase, it's got to pass
I was a train, movin' too fast
Didn't understand, what to see
Yeah, then I got a different view, yes you, no
Wait, how'm I gonna give you a break
I'm not your friend, I never was
I said wait, how'm I gonna give you a break
I'm not your friend, I never was, no
So many fish, here in the sea
She wanted him, he wanted me
It's just a phase, it's got to pass
I was a train, movin' too fast
Yeah, I know you warned me
But this is too important
Ah now I got a different view, yes you
Why can't ya wait,
How'm I gonna give you a break,
I'm not your friend, I never was
I said wait, how'm I gonna give you a break,
I'm not your friend, I never was
Well on top of me you look this way
saying to me that I would say
every little creature that lives alone
time gets enough to get him sit right down
and now time's a reaching and I'm not there
and in the end and I am said/sad
all the little people, they're in your way
and a something..... someone to bowl with
and I'm tired
but I'm older
and I said that I was wrong
and I'm not going that way
see I ain't going that way
and I'm not going that way
and I'm not going that way
in a church wehn went in your in that fate
bring it down and a past in your visit
all the little poeple that run around
and I touch them someone that's underground
and hes always
from the corpses
and all a trying yaw yaw yaw (well that's what it sounds like)
finally a part of something new
I'll show them all back home
where's the child I overheard?
and I'm not going that way
i'm not going that way
I'm not going that way
cause I always go your side in
I was all just a dream, Oh no
The worst it was real
All my pets they were there and they smiled
Take a seat it looks fine
Everybody so inviting
They got it in for me I know
It's not that I don't really love you
It's just that I don't really know
The hateful things you think you want to say
Time will turn them into jokes
If it was all just a dream, Oh no
Was it real? I don't know
If it was you were on there with me
Overjoyed in a peach
Oh Get, Get a pain, Get a watch
It was like a moonlight in life
I saw worst in a stop liner cuz
It go fast aint got time is been shot
Everybody got to party
Should've waiting for me
Everybody got to party
Should've waited till way
Cause today they talk about us
And tomorrow they won't care
Is a life is it a dream I can't tell
I got up and I wait in a throw
I will call you up every day
Overjoyed in a case
First time around
Second take so long
Third time's the charm
Second falls
Five days to rehearse
Six American work
Seven's in a scale
Eight circum change
Nine intoxicate
Ten is you & friend
Eleven seconds there
Because twelve make you goooaa
I was living in a yellow room
And the goldfish eyes and clear the room
And in your life I hope that it's the knife
That cuts life angels, and their wings drop
And can I be next to you?
And I'll be right in the next room
Tell, can I be brave?
Shit, I dunno
Cause I gotta mess up these words
But that's okay, because, because
The only thing is around
Cause it's good to be, good to be
And I move over
And I let go
Giving down to
He's something, oh!
He said 'I'll be around but, it's dangerous!'
He said, 'It's all I ate on this day or two'
Ohhhh...
Babababababa,
Babababababa,
Babababababa...
I was stuck inside your prison heart
And your emplish tongues and slice it off
He cleared my room and then he ran away
On top of this, ------------------------
And can I go next to you?
And I'll beat her up some more
And I'm not going that way!
He said, 'Whoooahoooahhhh!'
Oh my god, what the fuck was that?
I can't believe that just happened
Yes, I just, it's alright where it is
Cause he's always there on -------
It'll all be over
It's on your way
The time is over
It's dangerous
He said, 'Better he than me to five time us'
He said ' And I'll be the one'
Ohhhhh, ba ba,
Babababababa,
Babababababa,
Babababababa,
Babababababa...
well i lived this life and i was just seventeen
this house was built on mamas broken dreams
and then it took me by surprise
when she looked me in the eyes
and i arrest these teachers for what they have read
and give all your money to the living dead
like a call girl in her prime
arriving just in time
and i am a sentimental man
i try to reach to God with just one hand
rejecting offers to be with you
all that does is to
keep you by your side
a new way to wave goodbye
and i'm waiting
i'm not waiting!!
and i'm redefining what they could not deceive
upon their big arrival and then she dont think
take them off to war, if you wanna ask me for some more
i'm taking your days
in her prime
just in time
I want to sit in bed
And time in a hand, I will be the one
And he's alone outside
And in your face I won't be arranged
And in this bleakening
The end of time is all that I had
He's all alone again
And in the end I'll still be alone
In your eyes
And it's no sacrifice
Giving what I am
To the faces me that is this
I'm going on my way
But I don't spend enough time with her
And it's alright to snow
Cause I'll find ways to live without
He's all alone outside
But your face is just like the one
And in this bleakening
He gets me, scared of
Yeah...
When I thought I'd known
But I can't give to something I'd known
And in this time, alone,
Is me, right, but I've been alone
And on your death I say, he said,
