I smile, you laugh, I look away
I sigh, you ask me why, I say
It's okay and I am just feeling down
Your hand on mine I hear the words
If only love had found us first
Our lives, they would be different, oh
So I stand and wait
I am just a man
Where would we be now, baby
If we found each other first?
Where would we be now, baby?
And now I must confess
That I am a sinking ship
I'm anchored by the weight of my heart
'Cause it's filled with these feelings
But I keep my true thoughts locked
Beside my hearts black box
And it won't be found, it won't survive
Through the smoke or the wreckage
So I crash and burn
I got a lot of things to learn
Where would we be now, baby
If we found each other first?
What would you do now, darling
If I said these simple words?
I'll wait, I'll wait
As long as you want
Where would we be now, baby?
I'll wait
I'll wait
Where would we be now, baby
If we found each other first?
What would you do now, darling
If I said these simple words?
I'll wait, I'll wait
As long as you want
Where would we be now baby?
There's a woman crying out tonight
Her world has changed...
She asks god why
Her only son has died
And now her daughter cries
She can't sleep at night
Downtown another day for all the suits and ties
Another war to fight there's no regard for life
How do they sleep at night?
How can we make things right?
Just want to make this right
We believe X 6
In this love
We are all the same
Human in all our ways and all our pain
So let it be
There's a love that could fall down like rain
Let us see
Let forgiveness wash away the pain
What we need
And no one really knows what they are searching for
We Believe
This world is crying for so much more
We believe x6
In this love
We believe x5
In this love
So this world is too much
For you to take
Just lay it down and follow me
I'll be everything you need in every way
We believe x6
In this love
In this love
We believe
In this love
We believe
In this love
We believe
She walks down to the store at eight,
The devil walks with her and he thinks she's great,
When she looks at me, I don't know what I saw,
I think he's tryin' to make me his son in law
When she,
Walks by, walks by, walks by, she walks on by
Egos fly when she walks by,
She caught my eye on October 9th,
22 days before Halloween, How did I know she'd be my evil queen,
My mother warned me against girls like you,
She said stay away from them son, you know they're not true,
All they're gonna do is put you under a spell, she told me,
Just because I walk
Like Obi-Wan Kenobi
You people talk
But you don't even know me
And all these guys
(But thats alright)
I think they wanna fight me
('Cuz I get down with GC)
And all these girls
(So I walk on)
I know that they don't like me
(And listen to their CD's)
Some people laugh
They do it just to spite me
I'm in a crowd
(Behind my back)
And none of them are like me
(They don't know what I see)
But I don't care what they say
I don't need them anyway
I'll just go about my day, but anyway
You go out on Friday night
I'll stay in but that's all right
'Cause I have found a click
To call my own, in crowd
Out crowd, I don't care, your crowd
My crowd, we can share
'Cause I have found
A click to call my own
(Let's go)
So come and talk to me
On my computer screen
The best years of our lives
Aren't as easy as they seem
But one day we'll look back
And then we'll have to laugh
They used to call us names
Now they want our autographs
To get the girl and make the grade
It's all a show, it's all a game
And I would lose it if I play
It's all the same
So I don't care what they say
I don't need them anyway
I'll just go about my day
But anyway
You go out on Friday night
I'll stay in but that's all right
'Cause I have found a click
To call my own, in crowd
Out crowd, I don't care, your crowd
My crowd, we can share
'Cause I have found a
Click to call my own
She says she'd call
But I know she won't
(She won't)
(She won't)
You go out on Friday night
I'll stay in but that's all right
'Cause I have found a click
To call my own, in crowd
Out crowd, I don't care, your crowd
My crowd, we can't share
'Cause I have found a
Click to call my own
(Let's go)
I don't care what you say
I don't need you anyway
I'll just go about my day
But anyway
I don't care what you say
I don't need you anyway
I'll just go about my day
Don’t cry
Open up your eyes and know
There’s someone else out there that feels this way
I’m singing to you
Cause I know what you’ve been through and now
It’s not so long ago I felt the same
Like soldiers
March on
If we can make it through the night will see the sun
March on, march on
I remember summer nights alone
Fireflies the only thing we own
All we ever dreams of California
I remember winters were so cold
Hunger was the only thing we know
And rock n’ roll dreamin’ was what saved us
Like soldiers
March on
If we can make it through the night will see the sun
March on, march on
Till we see the sun
Till we see the sun
Through the good times,
Through the bad times
Through the long days
Through the hard nights
Keep on till we see the sun
Like soldiers
March on
If we can make it through the night will see the sun
March on, march on
Like soldiers
March on
If we can make it through the night will see the sun
March on, march on
Even when there’s no one there for you march on
Even when the days are long for you march on
Like soldiers
Tonight I kinda get the feeling,
My girl is up to something,
Something that is no good.
She said she only had a meeting,
But she is dressed for something,
Something that is no good.
Now I'm not saying that she's cheating,
But seeing is believing,
Can't believe it,
What I'm seeing when I stepped inside.
She's so wasted,
Acting crazy,
Making a scene,
Like it's her birthday.
Drinking champagne,
Going insane,
Falling on me,
Like it's her birthday.
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.
This ain't the night I thought it'd be.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
She ain't shy, apparently.
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.
You can hear the crowd and everybody sings.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Just like it's her birthday.
She turns and says don't be surprised,
It's gonna be a good night,
A good, good night.
She's showing me a different side,
One I've never seen before,
That I Ignore.
Cause when I'm up she's all about me,
When I'm down,
She stays around me,
Now I know I'm one and only,
So I might as well enjoy the ride.
She's so wasted,
Acting crazy,
Making a scene,
Like it's her birthday.
Drinking champagne,
Going insane,
Falling on me,
Like it's her birthday.
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.
This ain't the night I thought it'd be.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
And she ain't shy, apparently.
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.
You can hear the crowd and everybody sings.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Just like it's her birthday.
Like it's her birthday.
Like it's her birthday.
Like it's her birthday.
Like it's her birthday.
She's so wasted,
Acting crazy,
Making a scene,
Like it's her birthday.
Drinking champagne,
Going insane,
Falling on me,
Like it's her birthday.
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.
This ain't the night I thought it'd be.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
She ain't shy, apparently.
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.
This ain't the night I thought it'd be.
You can hear the crowd and everybody sings.
It wasn't enough [x3]
I will try to believe in the things I cannot see
But my faith is shaken now like it's never been before
When I call
And you don't come
I don't know what I should do
Should I call?
Should I even count on you?
[Chorus:]
I've given all I can
It wasn't enough
To keep you in my hands
Should I give up?
I try to understand
Was it ever enough?
I don't understand
So here I am once again
With my back against the wall
Afraid to show you
Afraid to tell you
I don't know you like I did
I've never been so alone
I've never felt so insecure
And now I don't know where I'm going
In my life I'm not so sure
[Chorus]
Giving up tonight
I won't let go
Won't let go of you
Giving up tonight
I wanna show you
Wanna show you
Giving up tonight
I won't let go
Won't let go of you
Giving up tonight
Am I giving up?
Giving up
I don't wanna give this up
I won't
[Chorus]
Everything you want from me
I fought so hard for everything
Everything you want from me
I tried so hard could never be
Anything you want from me
Anything you want from me
Anything you want from me
owww, owww, owww, owww, owww …
Cardiology is guiding you and me
through ancient history
new technology
cardiology the mystery
I know a girl who's tough but sweet
She's so fine she can't be beat
She's got everything that I desire
She sets the summer sun on fire
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
Go to see her when the sun goes down
There ain't no finer girl in town
You're my girl, what the doctor ordered
a drinka so sweet, you make my mouth water
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
if you dont give it to me
i will shit a jellybean
it will taste like peach and cream
so just give me all your candy
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
I need an alarm system in my house
So I know when people are creepin' about
These people are freakin' me out
These days, it's getting hectic everywhere that I go
They won't leave me alone
There's things they all wanna know
I'm paranoid about the people I meet
Why are they talkin' to me
And why can't anyone see?
I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live
Just wanna live, just wanna live
Just wanna live, just wanna live
I rock a law suit when I'am goin' to court
A white suit when I'm gettin' divorced
The black suit at the funeral home
And my birthday suit when I'm home alone
Talkin' on the phone got an interview with the rolling stone
They're sayin', "Now you're rich and now you're famous
Big-ass girls all know your name and
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
Your first hit, aren't you ashamed?
Of the life, of the life, of the life you're livin"
I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live
Stop your messin' around boy better think of your future
Better make some good plans boy
Said every one of my teachers
Look out, you better play it safe
You never know what hard times will come your way
We say, where we're comin' from?
We've already seen the worst that this life can bring
Now we expect it everywhere that we go
All the things that they say
Yeah, we already know
I just wanna live
Don't really care about the things that they say
Don't really care about what happens to me
(Just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live)
I just wanna live
(Just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live)
I just wanna live
(Just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live)
Don't really care about the things that they say
(Just wanna live, just wanna live, just wanna live)
Don't really care about what happens to me
I just wanna live
She's going out to forget they were together
All that time he was taking her for granted
She wants to see if there's more
Than he gave she's looking for
He calls her up
He's trippin' on the phone now
He doesn't want her out there
And alone now
He knows she's movin' it
Knows she's using it
Now he's losing it, she don't care
Everybody put up your hands
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feel the beat now
If you've got nothing left
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Back it up now
You've got a reason to live
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feelin' good now
Don't be afraid to get down
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
He was always giving her attention
Looking hard to find the things she mentioned
He was dedicated but most suckers hate it
That girl was fine but she didn't appreciate him
She calls him up
She's trippin' on the phone now
He had to get up
And he ain't comin' home now
He's tryin' to forget her
That's how we come with him
When he first met her
When they first got together
Everybody put up your hands
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feel the beat now
If you got nothing left
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Back it up now
You got a reason to live
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feelin' good now
Don't be afraid to get down
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
To the beat, to the beat, to the beat
You got nothing to lose
Don't be afraid to get down
We break up, it's something that we do now
Everyone has got to do it sometime
It's okay, let it go
Get out there and find someone
It's too late to be trippin' on the phone here
Get off the wire, know everything is good here
Stop what you're doin', you don't wanna ruin
The chance that you got to find a new one
Everybody put up your hands
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feel the beat now
If you got nothing left
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Back it up now
You got a reason to live
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feelin' good now
Don't be afraid to get down
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
No, no
Now you know what to do
Lost and broken
Hopeless and lonely
Smiling on the outside
Hurt beneath my skin
My eyes are fading
My soul is bleeding
I'll try to make it seem okay
But my faith is wearing thin
So help me heal these wounds
They've been open for way too long
Help me fill this soul
Even though this is not your fault
That I'm open
And I'm bleeding
All over your brand new rug
And I need someone to help me sew them up
I only wanted a magazine
I only wanted a movie screen
I only wanted the life I'd read about and dreamed
And now my mind is an open book
And now my heart is an open wound
And now my life is an open soul for all to see
But help me heal these wounds
They've been open for way too long
Help me fill this soul
Even though this is not your fault
That I'm open
And I'm bleeding
All over your brand new rug
And I need someone to help me
So you come along
I push you away
Then kick and scream for you to stay
'cause I need someone to help me
Oh I need someone to help me
To help me heal these wounds
They've been open for way too long
Help me fill this soul
Even though this is not your fault
That I'm open
And I'm bleeding
All over your brand new rug
And I need someone to help me sew them
I need someone to help me fill them
I smile , you laugh, I look away
I sigh, you ask me why, I say,
It's ok and I am just feeling down
Your hand on mine I hear the words...
If only love had found us first, our lives would be different
So I stand and wait
I am just a man
Where would we be now baby, if we found each other first
Where would we be now baby,
And now I must confess
That I am a sinking ship
I'm anchored by the weight of my heart cause its filled with these feelings
I keep my true thought locked beside my hearts black box
It wont be found, it wont be found, through the smoke or the wreckage
So I crash and burn
I got a lot of things to learn
Where would we be now baby, if we found each other first
What would you do now darling, if I said these simple words
I'll wait, I'll wait...As long as you want
Where would we be now baby
I'll wait
I'll wait
Where would we be now baby, if we found each other first
What would you do now darling, if I said these simple words
I'll wait, I'll wait...As long as you want.
Where would we be now baby
I'll wait
I'll wait
Back
I made this bed
I choose to lie in it
Live with my regrets
Sleep with what I said
Could this be the end
Am I standing on the edge
Of everything I wanted now
I was afraid
I was afraid
Maybe I’m just scared
To face the things I fear
It's easier to walk away from everything
Separate my soul
With all the things we shared
I’m fallin' to pieces now
Say a prayer for me
When you go to bed
I’m in need of your faith now
I was afraid
Maybe I’m just scared
To face the things I fear
It's easier to walk away from everything
If we could just reset
And live in happiness
Instead of our regrets
We'd salvage everything
We don't have to walk away
Pray for me now
I’m in need of faith
Pray for me now
I’m in need
Maybe I’m just scared
To face the things I feared
It's easier to walk away from everything
If we could just reset
And live in happiness
Instead of our regrets
We'd salvage everything
Maybe I’m just scared
To face the things I failed
It's easier to walk away from everything
Walk away from everything
Oh oh oh
In the beginning
I tried to warn you
You play with fire
It's gonna burn you
And here we are now
Same situation
You never listen
I never listen, now
I'm thinking of a way
That I can make an escape
It's got me caught up in a web
And my hearts the prey
Do you really wanna throw your heart
Away, away, away?
Everybody's hurt somebody before
Everybody's been warned by somebody before
You can change but you'll always come back for more
It's a game and we're all just victims of love
Don't try to fight it
Victims of love
You can't decide it
Victims of love
Oh oh oh oh oh
Victims of love
Oh oh oh oh oh
Now you back track
You're running away
'Cause it just happened again
And you just wanted to end
Trying the best not to let yourself go cold, so cold
Now you've thinking of the things
You thought you wanted to say
But when you open up your mouth
They don't come out that way
Are you really gonna throw your heart away
Away, away?
Everybody's hurt somebody before
Everybody's been warned by somebody before
You can change but you'll always come back for more
It's a game and we're all just victims of love
Don't try to fight it
Victims of love
You can't decide it
Victims of love
Oh oh oh oh oh
Victims of love
Oh oh oh oh oh
Victims of love
In the beginning
I tried to warn you
You play with fire
It's gonna burn you
And here we are now
Same situation
You never listen
I never listen
Everybody's hurt somebody before
Everybody's been warned by somebody before
You can change but you'll always come back for more
It's a game and we're all just victims of love
Everybody's hurt somebody before
Everybody's been warned by somebody before
You can change but you'll always come back for more
It's a game and we're all just victims of love
Don't try to fight it
Victims of love
You can't decide it
Victims of love
Oh oh oh oh oh
Victims of love
Oh oh oh oh oh
Hard day's maybe hard nights shake me
I don't know the song, I'm singing
And I know, I'm making something
Out of this, like they called nothing
I take what I want; I take what I need
They say its wrong, but its right for me
I won't look down, won't say I'm sorry
I know that only God can judge me
And if I make it through the day
Will tomorrow be the same?
Am I just running in place?
And if I stumble and I fall
Should I get up, and carry on?
Will it all just be the same?
Cos, I'm young and I am hopeless
I'm lost and un-noticed
I'm going no where fast that's what they say
I'm troublesome, I'm fallen
I'm Adrian my father
It's me against this world and I don't care,
I don't care!
And no one else can send us free
Understand the life I lead
When I sing about my past
It's not a game, it's not an act
Its critics and needs trust fund kids,
Tries to tells me what ball gives,
And when I see them all in this dream
I've nothing to say
And if I make it through the day
Will tomorrow be the same?
Am I just running in place?
And if I stumble and I fall
Should I get up, and carry on?
Will it all just be the same?
Cos, I'm young and I am hopeless
I'm lost and un-noticed
I'm going no where fast that's what they say
I'm troublesome, I'm fallen
I'm Adrian my father
It's me against this world and I don't care,
I don't care
I don't care
No
I don't care
I'm young and I am hopeless
I'm lost and un-noticed
I'm going no where fast that's what they say
I'm troublesome, I'm fallen
I'm Adrian my father
It's me against this world and I don't care,
I don't care
I don't care!
I don't care!
I don't care!
Turn on channel seven at a quarter to eight
You see the same damn thing
It's just a different day
And no one really knows why this is happening
But it's happening
And everywhere you go it's just a different place
You get the same dark feeling
See the same sad faces
No one really cares that this is happening
We come into this world
And we are all the same
And in that moment there's no one to blame
But the world is black
And hearts are cold
And there's no hope
That's what we're told
And we can't go back
It won't be the same
Forever changed
By the things we've seen (seen)
Living in this place
It's always been this way
There's no one doing nothing
So there's nothing changed
And I can't live when this world
Just keeps dying
It's dying
People always tell me, this is part of the plan
That God's got everybody in his hands
But I can only pray that God is listening
Is he listening?
But living in this world
Growing colder everyday
Nothing can stay perfect
Now I see
But the world is black
And hearts are cold
And there's no hope
That's what we're told
And we can't go back
It won't be the same
Forever changed
By the things we've seen (seen, seen)
We come into this world
And we are all the same
And in that moment there's no one to blame
But we're living in this world
Growing colder everyday
Nothing can stay perfect
Now I see
The world is black
And hearts are cold
And there's no hope
That's what we're told
And we can't go back
It won't be the same
Forever changed
By the things we've seen (seen, seen)
Turn on channel seven at a quarter to eight
You see the same damn thing it's just a different day
I Don't know too much about too much of my old man
I know he walked right out the door, we never saw him again
Last I heard he was at the bar, doin' himself in
I know I got that same disease, I guess I got that from him
This is the story of my old man
Just like his father before him
I'm tellin' you, do anything you can
So you don't end up just like them
Like them
Monday he woke up and hated life
Drank until Wednesday and left his wife
Thursday through Saturday he lost everything
Woke up on Sunday, miserable again
I remember baseball games and workin' on the car
Told me that he loved me and that I would go far
Showed me how to work hard and stick up for myself
Wish it wasn't too hard to listen to himself
This is the story of my old man
Just like his father before him
I'm tellin' you, do anything you can
So you don't end up just like them
Like them
Monday he woke up and hated life
Drank until Wednesday and left his wife
Thursday through Saturday he lost everything
Woke up on Sunday, miserable again
Again
Again
Someday he'll wish that he made things right (made things right)
Love for his family and miss his wife (miss his wife)
Remember the days he had everything (everything)
As I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of L.A.
The footsteps that were next to me
Have gone their separate ways
I've seen enough now to know that beautiful things
Don't always stay that way
I've done enough now to know this beautiful place
Isn't everything they say
I heard that evil comes disguised
Like the city of angels
I'm walking towards the light
Baptized in the river
I've seen a vision of my life and I wanna be delivered
In the city was a sinner
I've done a lot of things wrong but I swear I'm a believer
Like the prodigal son, I was out on my own
Now I'm trying to find my way back home
Baptized in the river
I'm delivered, I'm delivered
You're from a small town
You're gonna grow up fast underneath these lights
Down in Hollywood on the boulevard
The dead come back to life
To the praying Mother and the worried Father
Let your children go
If they come back they'll come home stronger
And if they don't you'll know
They say evil that comes disguised
Like the city of angels
I'm walking towards the light
Baptized in the river
I've seen a vision of my life and I wanna be delivered
In the city was a sinner
I've done a lot of things wrong but I swear I'm a believer
Like the prodigal son, I was out on my own
Now I'm trying to find my way back home
Baptized in the river
I'm delivered, I'm delivered
Baptized in the river
(On my own!)
Baptized in the river
(On my own!)
I wanna be delivered
(On my own!)
(On my own!)
Baptized in the river
(On my own!)
I wanna be delivered
Baptized in the river
(On my own!)
I wanna be delivered
Baptized in the river
(On my own!)
I wanna be delivered
I confess I'm a sinner
I've seen a vision of my life
Spend your lazy, endless crazy days, inside my head,
You're so selfish, you're not the only one who thinks he's dead
I'm paid to smile, now I'm on trial for what you think I said
But I never said that everything would be ok,
And I never said that we would live to see another day
Motivate me, I wanna get myself out of this bed,
Captivate me, I want good thoughts inside of my head,
If I fall down would you come around and pick me right up off the ground
I'm realistic and narcisistic,
You say I'm selfish and absurd
You try to change me, you try to save me
You say I'm gonna learn, I'm so blind,
I'm out of time, You're so unkind sometimes,
I never lied, I never lied, I never lied
Cuz I never said that everything would be ok, and I never said that we would live to see another day..
'Cause everything it'll be ok,
You know we're gonna live to see another day,
Yeah...yeah...
Motivate me...yeah,
All these games you play, they're messin' with my head,(messin with my head)
I don't know why I stay, I should leave instead (I should leave instead),
When I speak from my heart, you laugh like it's a game (this ain't no game)
Yeah we'd make great friends, but it just isn't the same...
(Chorus)-
And I know this is not the way it should be,
And I know you treat him like me,
But I don't wanna stop, I don't wanna stop, I don't wanna stop
(Chorus Ends)
Now I don't need you to buy me pretty things (you don't pay for me),
Pay for my tattoos or buy me diamond rings (we don't want those things),
All I know is that I'm happy to see you smile (i want to see you smile),
And it'd make my day if you'd just stay here awhile (stay with me),
(Chorus)(Chorus Ends)
This has gone on way too long...
And I'm tired of movin' on,
(Chorus)(Chorus Ends)
Just because I walk
Like Obi-Wan Kenobi
You people talk
But you don't even know me
And that's all right
'Cause I get down with GC
So I walk on and
Listen to their CD
Some people laugh
They do it just to spite me
Behind my back
They don't know what I see
But I don't care what they say
I don't need them anyway
I'll just go about my day
But anyway
You go out on Friday night
I'll stay in but that's all right
'Cause I have found a clique
To call my own in-crowd
Out-crowd
I don't care your crowd
My crowd
We can't share
'Cause I have found
A clique to call my own
(Let's go)
So come and talk to me
On my computer screen
The best years of our lives
Aren't as easy as they seem
But when they will look back
And then we'll have to laugh
They used to call us names
Now they want our autographs
To get the girl and make the grade
It's all a show
It's all a game
And I would lose it if I played
It's all the same
So I don't care what they say
I don't need them anyway
I'll just go about my day
But anyway
You go out on Friday night
I'll stay in but that's all right
'Cause I have found a clique
To call my own in-crowd
Out-crowd
I don't care your crowd
My crowd
We can't share
'Cause I have found a
Clique to call my own
She says she'd call
But I know she won't
(She won't)
(She won't)
You go out on Friday night
I'll stay in but that's all right
'Cause I have found a clique
To call my own in-crowd
Out-crowd
I don't care your crowd
My crowd
We can't share
'Cause I have found a
Clique to call my own
I don't care what you say
I don't need you anyway
I'll just go about my day
But anyway
I don't care what you say
I don't need you anyway
I'll just go about my day
You come in cold
You're covered in blood
They're all so happy you've arrived
The doctor cuts your cord
He hands you to your mom
She sets you free into this life
And where do you go?
With no destination, no map to guide you
Wouldn’t you know
That it doesn’t matter, we all end up the same
These are the chronicles of life and death
And everything between
These are the stories of our lives as fictional as they may seem
You come in this world
And you go out just the same
Today could be the best day of your life
And money talks, in this world, that's what idiots will say
But you'll find out, that this world
Is just an idiot's parade
Before you go
You've got some questions, and you want answers
But now you're old, cold, covered in blood
Right back to where you started from
These are the chronicles of life and death
And everything between
These are the stories of our lives as fictional as they may seem
You come in this world
And you go out just the same
Today could be the worst day of your life
But these are the chronicles of life and death
And everything between
These are the stories of our lives as fictional as they may seem
You come in this world
And you go out just the same
Today could be the best day of
Today could be the worst day of
Today could be the last day of
Your life
It’s your life
She is a diamond, I am a stone
I come from nowhere, she's been to Rome
Her daddy's a lawyer, mine's not around
She has good manners, I'm rough all around
Well, you could come from something
You could come from nothing
You could be a princess, you could be a working man
But in the end
We all want something else
(We all want something else)
We all want something we can't have
We all want something else
(We all want something else)
We all want something strange to us
Maybe a roll in the dirt
Or it's a seat in first class
We all want something we can't have
She wants to go to restaurants in Beverly Hills where people stare
But I don't care, it's just what she grew up around
She drags me to parties where people ask me where I went to college
She knows damn well, I barely finished school
She knows a lot about yearly salaries
And trust funds and dividends
She knows that I don't really care at all
But we got together and it's working okay
You could come from something
You could come from nothing
You could be a princess, you could be a working man
In the end
We all want something else
(We all want something else)
We all want something we can't have
We all want something else
(We all want something else)
We all want something strange to us
Maybe a roll in the dirt
Or it's a seat in first class
We all want something we can't have
Well, you can spend your whole life looking for something
Something that might be
Right in front of your eyes but you'll be looking for
Something else, you'll never find
We all want something else
(We all want something else)
We all want something we can't have
We all want something else
(We all want something else)
We all want something strange to us
We all want something else
(We all want something else)
We all want something we can't have
We all want something else
(We all want something else)
We all want something strange to us
Maybe a roll in the dirt
Or it's a seat in first class
In the dark
In the darkness you will find
Dirty little secrets we all hide
Cause' we all have a darker side
A place we keep where no one else will find
Cause' everybody wants to hide their secrets away
Nobody wants to stand up to the pain
But I will stand up to the pain
Wake up and fight again
If you could dance with me through this rain
And we will fight, we’ll fight again, fight again
In the back, in the closets of your mind
Thats where skeletons and dirty secrets hide
And I'll rip out my insides
And leave them on display for you tonight
Cause' everybody wants to hide their secrets away
Nobody wants to stand up to the pain
But I will stand up to the pain
Wake up and fight again
If you could dance with me through this rain
And we will fight, we’ll fight again, fight again
(fight again, fight again)…
All my life I hide my secrets away,
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark
We all try to hide our secrets away,
In the dark, in the dark, in the dark
Stand up to the pain
Wake up and fight again
If you could dance with me through this rain
And we will fight, we’ll fight again, fight again
Fight again
Cause' everybody wants to hide their secrets away
And that’s ok
Nobody wants to stand up to the pain
Summer air reminds me of all the feelings of your love,
And what it was like when we were together,
Walking all along the beach, you were never far from my reach,
And you held me through the stormy weather,
And I want to fall in love tonight,
And I remember when you said "everything's gonna be alright"
Laying in the summer grass, you told me not to talk so fast,
As I told you how I feel,
You made me feel right at home,
You told me I was not alone and you knew just how I feel,
I know we talked about it, I just can't get around it,
I just want one more night with you,
October air reminds me of all the seasons of your love,
And what it was like when we were together
The smell of fall is everywhere and though it seems,
Communication is a lot like the wind when I speak,
It's like no one understands, and I'm left with empty hands,
Forever I can't speak,
So many things I'll never learn,
You can't cross bridges that you've burned,
Why is life such an issue in your mind,
Why are the answers to my problems hard to find,
So hard to find,
Don't forget to buckle when you fall,
Beneath the pressure of the seconds when,
Your life became a screamer,
Staring at the sea things become so small,
I want movies of my dreams, and pictures on my wall,
Pictures on my wall,
Why is life such an issue in your mind,
Why are the answers to my problems hard to find,
So hard to find,
You say that I'm a dreamer,
I say you're a non-believer,
Take out the light, take out the light start screamin',
I'm dreaming,
I'm a dreamer, no one believes me,
And you don't either,
So tell me what to,
Take out the light,
Take out the light,
Take out the light,

All these dreams and all these plans,
I built them all with these two hands,
Everything I've realized my dreams.
The city lights shine down and they blind me sometimes,
But through it all I was lost but I found my way
So tell me what you want 'cause I would give you anything,
Tell me what you need and I'll go get it.
I'd give up all these dreams to have you in my arms right now,
I'd give up everything and I'd forget it.
I wasn't on a mountain
When it came to me.
All my life's been wasted,
Chasing shallow dreams.
So here we are,
Let me lift you up and show you this world over me,
And all these things what I've gained and what I've seen,
It can't compare to the love that you could give to me.
So tell me what you want 'cause I would give you anything,
Tell me what you need and I'll go get it.
I'd give up all these dreams to have you in my arms right now,
I'd give up everything and I'd forget it.
I wasn't on a mountain
When it came to me.
All my life's been wasted,
Chasing shallow dreams.
Years go by
And nothing's slowing down the time
Years go by
And then they're wasted.
All this time
I thought that I gained everything,
If you're not mine
I'm so empty.
I wasn't on a mountain
When it came, when it came to me.
All my life's been wasted,
Chasing shallow dreams.
So please come back to me, I'm right here waiting
Spend your lazy, endless crazy days inside my head,
You're so selfish, you're not the only on who thinks he's dead,
I'm paid to smile, now I'm on trial for what you think I said,
BRIDGE
'Cause I never said that everything would be ok,
And I never said that we would live to see another day,
CHORUS
Motivate me,
I wanna get myself out of this bed,
Captivate me,
I want good thoughts inside of my head,
When I fall down would you come around and pick me right up off the ground,
I'm un-artistic, unrealistic, you say I'm selfish and absurd,
You try to change me, you try to save, you say I'm gonna learn,
I'm so blind,
I'm out of time you're so unkind sometimes,
I never lied,
I never lied ¡
BRIDGE
CHORUS
'Cause everything it'll be ok,
You know we're gonna live to see another day,
Yeah ¡yeah ¡
Motivate me ¡ yeah,
Motivate me ¡ yeah.
(This is the way I'll meet my maker tonight)
So this is it
This is my life
This is my time
It's ending tonight
I made my mistakes
I tried to live right
Stepped out of the darkness into the light
And when I'm gone
Will they remember
Will they mourn
Will they move on
When my sad songs the lonely son
His time has come his life is done
And tonight
We'll celebrate the end
Of this life
And we'll sing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whhooaa aaooohh
It's alright
this is a night like we've began
With open arms
This is the way
The way I'll meet my maker tonight
And on my grave
What will it say?
Here lies another soul that was saved
So please don't cry
Just sleep at night
And I will wait on the other side
And tonight
we'll celebrate the end
Of this life
And we'll sing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whooaahh ooohhh
It's alright
This is a night like we've began
With open arms
This is the way
The way I'll meet my maker tonight
And tonight
We'll celebrate the end
Of this life
And we'll sing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whooaaa ooohh
It's alright
This is a night like we've began
With open arms
This is the way
The way I'll meet my maker tonight
In this world all of our sins are simple
We choose death over innocent life
And in this world it's not our money that's evil
It's the one's who choose it over life
And in my heart I cannot believe in this murder
And I will not be fed by the lies
Or the life that's created just to be murdered
It's murder
No matter how hard they try and
No matter how loud they cry
They can't
Buy their way into heaven
No matter how hard they try and
No matter how high they climb up the ladder
They won't reach up into heaven
And they can't see
The innocent lives
The pointless suffering
And in my heart I wanna undo all this murder
And give back their innocent life
Open cages and stop their luxurious murder
It's murder
No matter how hard they try and
No matter how loud they cry
They can't
Buy their way into heaven
No matter how hard they try and
No matter how high they climb up the ladder
They won't reach up into heaven
Murder
Innocent Life
Innocent what...
What have we done?
No mercy (No matter how hard they try)
For beautiful money (and no matter how loud they cry)
Money for blood (they can't buy their way into heaven)
It's murder
No matter how hard they try and
No matter how high they climb up the ladder
They won't reach up into heaven
No matter how hard they try and
No matter how loud they cry
They can't
Let the record play,
Let the record play,
Let the record play.
The way that you dance,
The way that you move,
The way that you stare at me across the room,
You carry Dior bags,
And you got your Chanel,
You wear Louis Vuitton, ASG, and YSL,
Now I got what you need,
I got DCMA
I got brass knuckles hanging,
From my neck and my chain,
I got a model 26,
But she stays in her place,
I got a curve shirt neatly,
Tucked inside in my waist.
[Chorus:]
And the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
The hipster's been mugging on me all night long,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands off my girl,
Keep your hands off my girl,
They say "Aha, ahha",
But the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands off my girl,
Keep your hands off my girl.
Now she sweating my friends,
And my hurricane shoes,
She likes the records I spin,
My ADAM BARTON tattoos,
But she can't say "what's up",
So what does she do,
She just stays posted up,
The other side of the room,
I got AMC tattooed on my hand,
I got black wall street on a black bandana.
[Chorus:]
And the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
The hipster's been mugging on me all night long,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands off my girl,
Keep your hands off my girl,
They say "Aha, ahha",
But the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands off my girl,
Keep your hands off my girl.
She, she, she don't wanna talk about it,
He, he, he wants to fight about,
Me, me, I don't wanna fight about it,
I just wanna be about it,
I'm just trying to stay about it,
Step out the wagon,
You know the boy starts to hate,
The girl that came with him,
They like that's not the boy she dates,
They get the fighting and swearing,
And now the boyfriend is staring,
The disco ball on the ceiling,
Looks like the chain that I'm wearing,
But the music keeps playing,
I got brass knuckles hanging,
from my neck and my chain,
I got brass knuckles hanging,
from my neck and my chain.
And the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
The hipster's been mugging on me all night long,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands off my girl,
Keep your hands off my girl,
And the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
The hipster's been mugging on me all night long,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands off my girl,
Keep your hands off my girl.
You carry Dior bags,
And you got your Chanel,
You wear Louis Vitton, ASG, and YSL
Now I got what you need,
I got DCMA
I got brass knuckles hanging,
From my neck and my chain,
I got brass knuckles hanging,
From my neck and my chain.

Good Morning Revival (Intro)
[A load of chattering]
You're tired
Tired of running
You're tired
Tired of listening
You're tired
Tired of hurting
The day we could revive
Good morning
Good morning
Keep your sadness alive
Educated
With money
He's well dressed
Not funny
And not much to say in
Most conversations
But he'll put the bill in
All situations
Cause he pays for everything
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny
Paper
Or plastic
Don't matter
She'll have it
Vacations
And shopping sprees
These are a few
Of her favorite things
She'll get what she wants
If she's willing to please
His type of girl
Always comes with a fee
Hey, now, there's nothing for free
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny
And these girls like these boys like these boys like these girls
The girls with the bodies like boys with Ferraris
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
Let's go!
Eh, eh!
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny
And these girls like these boys like these boys like these girls
The girls with the bodies like boys with Ferraris
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
All of these boys, yeah and all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
All of these boys, yeah and all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
All of these boys, yeah and all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
All of these boys, yeah and all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
Today I screwed up again,
You said I could tell in the way you said goodbye,
I saw you sitting at your t-shirt stand with your new boyfriend,
He's really cool, I get the point
I don't want you, I don't want you,
I heard you, I heard you, I heard you say not a chance,
What don't you see,
I don't want you, I don't want you,
I heard you, I heard you, I heard you say you're not good enough for me
Today I screwed up again,
I wasn't paying attention, I walked into the wall again,
I heard you laugh and saw you grin,
While you were sitting at your t-shirt stand,
With all your cool friends, they're really cool,
I get the point
Today I'll give it one last try,
And then I'll wonder why, I did it to myself once again,
I saw your boyfriend, he's 6'3", Quarterback on varsity
The football players love to torture me,
So I'm feeling like I'm not fitting in,
I know that I'm not fitting in with you,
And tonight we burn down everything
We worked so hard to build
The ashes will rain down on me
Memories set aflame,
Sail away
What we said if we can make this
Then we can break this into two
Memories
[Chorus:]
I feel you falling away
I feel you falling away
I feel you falling away from me again
I feel you falling away
I feel you falling away
I feel you falling away from me again
And tonight I will be a vessel
With these sails set aflame
Let this ocean of our memories
Carry me out to sea, I will be
Fall beneath the crashing waves into my grave
I will sleep
[Chorus]
If we can make this
Then we can break it
If we can build it
Then we can burn it down
[Chorus]
I feel you falling away
I feel you falling away
I feel you falling away from me again
And now you're farther away
And now you're farther away
And now you're farther away from me again
And now you're farther away
And now you're farther away
And now you're farther away from me again
And now you're farther away
And now you're farther away
And now you're farther away from me again
And now you're farther away
And now you're farther away
And now you're farther away from me again
Lost and broken
Hopeless and lonely
Smiling on the outside
But hurt beneath my skin
My eyes are fading
My soul is bleeding
I'll try to make it seem okay
But my faith is wearing thin
[Chorus]
So help me heal these wounds
They've been open for way too long
Help me fill this soul
Even though this is not your fault
That I'm open and I'm bleeding
All over your brand new rug
And I need someone to help me sew them up
I only wanted a magazine
I only wanted a movie screen
I only wanted the life I read about and dreamed
And now my mind is an opened book
And now my heart is an opened wound
And now my life is an open
Soul for all to see
So help me heal these wounds
They've been open for way too long
Help fill this soul
Even though this not your fault
That I'm open and I'm bleeding
All over your brand new rug
And I need someone to help me
So you come along
I'll push you away
Then kick and scream for you to stay
Cause I need someone to help me
Oh I need someone to help me
To help me heal these wounds
They've been open for way to long
Help me fill this soul
Even though it is not your fault
That I'm open and I'm bleeding
All over your brand new rug
And I need someone to help me sew them
I need someone to help me fill them
I need someone to help me close them up
I don't care about a thing today
I used to but I'm fed up
And I can hear the words you say
I wish that you would shut up
I've got responsibility
that is my liability, a menace to society
At least that's what they say to me
But tonight, tonight, it's on tonight
I don't want your boring life,
And I don't want your 9 to 5,
Or anyone to tell me how to live my life
People always tell me not to waste my time,
To get a real job and get back in line,
You can say I'll never be a millionaire,
Tell me this guitar won't get me anywhere,
I've got responsibility, that is my liability,
I'm questioning authority
They say there's not a chance for me
Your future's no future,
Your future's no future,
Your future's no future,
I control my future
i'm leavin
i'm leavin
i'm leavin
When you call she doesn't answer, when you write she doesn't answer
You go out you see him with her, she told you she was sick at home
The ring you gave her thrown away with all the letters
And When you see him with her, he doesn't even care at all
And she follows him around like you follow her around
And he doesn't even care and you're figuring out
The only way you're gonna keep somebody around
Well I'm about to let you know
There's something I don't wanna understand
The only way a woman's gonna want a man
The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands
Is breaking apart her heart
Don't tell her she is the reason that you live
Don't give her everything that you got to give
If you want to keep the girl for as long as you live
Just break it apart her heart
Can't you see the way she's crying
Well that's what keeps her trying, she knew that she could have you
And he don't give her what she wants
There's truth about this, you say you want to be noticed
Well if you want to be noticed you've gotta learn to break some hearts
Don't try to understand
There's something I don't wanna understand
The only way a woman's gonna want a man
The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands
Is breaking apart her heart
Don't tell her she is the reason that you live
Don't give her everything that you got to give
If you want to keep the girl for as long as you live
Just break it apart her heart
Can't you see what you've done?
What I've become, what I've become
Can't you see? Can't you see?
I don't understand this cruelty
I don't understand but now I see
There's something I don't wanna understand
The only way a woman is gonna want a man
The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands
Is breaking apart her heart
Don't tell her she is the reason that you live
Don't give her everything that you got to give
If you want to keep the girl for as long as you live
Just break apart her heart
I don't understand this cruelty
I don't understand it's just not me
I don't understand this cruelty
And we've been here for so many years,
Still it seems as if you're not there (are you there),
Every time I talk you turn away (do you care),
Isn't dad an obligation to care,
CHORUS
And we've been here for so many years,
So many years still it seems,
So complicated, overrated, complicated this feeling is love,
Well I came in the door,
I said it before,
I never let the stress get,
Me down no more, giving thanks to the lord, and I pray every day,
Giving shouts to my peeps and this is what we say,
CHORUS
You left us one little room with a black and white TV,
One eviction notice and a bill for therapy,
You're living all alone you're like a dog without a bone,
You're living all alone 'cause you left us all at home,
Well you had a second chance but you threw it all away,
A fourth and fifth and sixth but that was yesterday,
Now you're sitting at a bar just drowning in your tears,
Lonely in the corner while everybody cheers,
CHORUS
Six dollars in your pocket one's a secret stash,
Three's for alcohol and two's for cigarettes,
CHORUS
I am lost in the see-thru, I think you lost yourself too,
Throughout all of this confusion, I hope I somehow get to you,
I practiced all the things I'd say, To tell you how I feel,
And when I finally get my chance, It all seems so surreal,
'Cause from the first time I saw you, I only thought about you,
I didn't know you, I wanted to hold onto, The things you'd never say to me,
'Cause you said
You can't change the way you feel,
I could never do that, I could never do that,
But you can't tell me this ain't real,
'Cause this is real
And you would see right through that,
In the end it's all I've got, So I'm gonna hold onto that,
So I'm gonna hold on and on and on and on,
Now you've got me watching your eyes,
Got me waiting just to see, If it goes the way it never will,
Your eyes are watching me, and now you've got me thinking 'bout,
The first time that I met you, Standing in a crowded room,
But I could only see you, And I hope my words will get through,
'Cause now I can't forget you, I want to tell you,
If only I could reach you, And make you feel this way,
Take a look at my life, all black
Take a look at my clothes, all black
Like Johnny Cash, all black
Like the Rolling Stones wanna paint it black
Like the night that we met, all black
Like the color of your dress, all black
Like the seats in my Cadillac
I used to see red now it's just all black
As long as I could remember I dreamed in black and white
As I grew up and the sun went down I never felt more alright
My mother she used to tell me, "Son you better get to church
It's a dark dark world and there's evil out there
And you know it's only getting worse"
Yeah, I never been much for weddings or anniversaries
But I go to a funeral if I'm invited any day of the week
Some people say that I sound strange, some say that I'm not right
But I find beauty in this world every single night
Take a look at my life, all black
Take a look at my clothes, all black
Like Johnny Cash, all black
Like the Rolling Stones wanna paint it black
Like the night that we met, all black
Like the color of your dress, all black
Like the seats in my Cadillac
I used to see red now it's just all black
I sat down at her table at the end of the night
She was having black coffee and a cigarette
She wasn't wearing white
She said, "People tell me that I'm strange they say that I'm not right"
She said, "The only time I feel alive is in the dead of night"
I think I found the one for me
Take a look at my life, all black
Take a look at my clothes, all black
Like Johnny Cash, all black
Like the Rolling Stones wanna paint it black
Like the night that we met, all black
Like the color of your dress, all black
Like the seats in my Cadillac
I used to see red now it's just all black
I remember feeling so alive
The night I looked into her eyes
Take a look at my life, all black
Take a look at my clothes, all black
Like Johnny Cash, all black
Like the Rolling Stones wanna paint it black
Like the night that we met, all black
Like the color of your dress, all black
Like the seats in my Cadillac
I used to see red, I used to see red
Take a look at my life, all black
Take a look at my life, all black
Take a look at my life, all black
All black, all black
Take a look at my life, all black
Take a look at my life, all black
Take a look at my life, all black
All black, all black, all black
She makes me laugh... she'll make me cry
And when we talk, she wonders why
That I can't breathe into this life
With the things she says I want to die
All the things we talk about
You know they stay on my mind
On my mind
All the things we laugh about
They'll bring us through it every time
After time after time
Cause you're all I wanted to find
Go...
And I would drive the whole night through
Just so I could spend it with you
I know you're mine
And I hope it's true that when we fight, we will make it through
All the things we talk about
You know they stay on my mind
On my mind
All the things we laugh about
They'll bring us through it every time
After time after time
Cause you're all I wanted to find
I'm falling... down
Cause you're all I wanted to find
Hard days make me hard nights shape me
I dunno this song might save me
And I know I'm making something
Out of this life they call nothing
I take what I want, take what I need
They say its wrong but its right for me
I won't look down won't say I'm sorry
I know that only god can judge me
And if I make it threw today
Will tomorrow be the same
Am I just running in place
And if I stubble and I fall
Should I get up and carry on
Will it all just be the same
Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless
I'm lost and I know this
I'm going nowhere fast that's what they say
I'm troublesome I'm fallin
I'm angry at my father
Its me against this world and I don't care
I don't care
And no one in this industry
Understands the life I lead
When I sing about my past
Its not a gimick not an act
This critics and these trust fund kids
Try to tell me what punk is
But when I see them on the streets
They got nothin to say
And if I make it threw today
Will tomorrow be the same
Am I just running in place
And if I stubble and I fall
Should I get up and carry on
Will it all just be the same
Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless
I'm lost and I know this
I'm going nowhere fast that's what they say
I'm troublesome I'm fallin
I'm angry at my father
Its me against this world and I don't care
I don't care
Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless
I'm lost and I know this
I'm going nowhere fast that's what they say
I'm troublesome I'm fallin
I'm angry at my father
Its me against this world and I don't care
I don't care
I don't know much about
too much of my old man
I know he walked right out the door
we never saw him again
last I heard he was at the bar
doin himself in
I know I got that same disease
I got stuck with that from him
this is the story of my old man
just like his father before him
I'm tellin you do anything you can
so you don't end up just like them
like them
Monday he woke up and hated life
drank until Wednesday and left his wife
Thursday thru Saturday lost everything
woke up on Sunday miserable again
i remember baseball games
and working on the car
told me that he loved me
and that I would go far
showed me how to work hard
and stick up for myself
I wish it wasn't hard
to listen to him tell *?*
this is the story of my old man
just like his father before him
I'm tellin you do anything you can
so you don't end up just like them
like them
Monday he woke up and hated life
drank until Wednesday and left his wife
Thursday thru Saturday I lost everything
woke up on Sunday miserable again
again
again
ooh!
Someday he'll wish that he made things rite
*made things rite*
long for his family and miss his wife
*miss his wife*
remember the days he had everything
*everything*
now he's alone and miserable again
When I think about my life
I wonder if I will survive
To live to see in twenty five or will I just fall?
I call my friends, they just keep dyin'
People round me always cryin'
In this place that I like to call my home
Well not everybody knows that everybody goes to a better place
And not everybody knows that everybody could be livin' their last days
But the hard times to come and we'll keep movin' on
We're movin' up
Keep movin' on, and on and on
(Life, hope, truth, trust, faith, pride, love)
Keep movin' on, and on and on
(Lust, on without the things we've lost)
(The things we've gained we'll take with us)
And also I've got are these two hands
To make myself a better man
I wonder if I'll ever see the end of this
With all this rain it just keeps fallin'
On my head and now I'm callin'
Out to someone else to help me make it through
Not everybody knows that everybody goes to a better place
And not everybody knows that everybody could be livin' their last days
But the hard times to come and we'll keep movin' on
We're movin' up
Keep movin' on, and on and on
(Life, hope, truth, trust, faith, pride, love)
Keep movin' on, and on and on
(Lust, pain, hate, lies, guilt, laugh, cry, live)
Keep movin' on and on and on and on
(Die, some friends become enemies)
On and on and on and on
(Some friends become your family)
On and on and on and on
(Make the best with what you're given)
On and on and on and on
(This ain't dyin', this is livin')
So we're movin' on and we've got nothin' to prove
To anyone
'Cause we'll get through
We're movin' on and on and on and on and
On and on and on and on and
On and on and on and on and
On and on and on and on and
Keep movin' on, and on and on
(Life, hope, truth, trust, faith, pride, love)
Keep movin' on, and on and on
(Lust, pain, hate, lies, guilt, laugh, cry, live)
Keep movin' on and on and on and on
(Die, some friends become enemies)
On and on and on and on
(Some friends become your family)
On and on and on and on
(Make the best with what you're given)
On and on and on and on
(This ain't dyin', this is livin')
Hey dad
I'm writing to you
not to tell you, that I still hate you
just to ask you
how you feel
and how we fell apart
how this fell apart
are you happy out there in this great wide world?
do you think about your sons?
do you miss your little girl?
when you lay your head down
how do you sleep at night?
do you even wonder if we're all right?
but we're all right
we're all right
it's been a long hard road without you by my side
why weren't you there all the nights that we cried
you broke my mother's heart
you broke your children for life
it's not ok,
but we're all right
I remember the days, you were a hero in my eyes
but those were just a long lost memory of mine
I spent so many years learning how to survive
Now, I'm writing just to let you know that I'm still alive
the days I spent so cold, so hungry
were full of hate
I was so angry
those scars run deep inside this tattooed body
there's things I'll take, to my grave
but I'm okay
I'm okay
it's been a long hard road without you by my side
why weren't you there all the nights that we cried
you broke my mother's heart
you broke your children for life
it's not ok,
but we're all right
I remember the days, you were a hero in my eyes
but those were just a long lost memory of mine
Now, I'm writing just to let you know that I'm still alive
yeah, I'm still alive
sometimes
I forgive
yeah and this time
I'll admit
that I miss you, said I miss you
it's been a long hard road without you by my side
why weren't you there all the nights that we cried
you broke my mother's heart
you broke your children for life
it's not ok,
but we're all right
I remember the days, you were a hero in my eyes
but those were just a long lost memory of mine
Now, I'm writing just to let you know that were still alive
and sometimes
I forgive
and this time
I'll admit, that I miss you, miss you
One day I woke up
I woke up knowing
Today is the day I will die
Cashdogg was barking
Went to the park
And enjoyed that one last time
I called my mother
Told her I loved her
I begged her not to cry
I wrote her a letter
I said I'd miss her
And signed that goodbye
you know the happiest day of my life
I swear the happiest day of my life
Is the day that I die
Can you feel the cold tonight? (the day that I died)
It sets in, but it's alright (the day that I died)
Darkness falls, I'm letting go (the day that I died)
All alone, but I feel fine (the day that I died)
We took a drive and…
We drove through DC
To see the places we lived
Our conversations
We talked of old friends
And all the things that we did
Summer nights
Drunken fights
mistakes we made
Did we live it right?
You know the happiest day of my life
I swear the happiest day of my life
Is the day that I died
Can you feel the cold tonight? (the day that I died)
It sets in, but it's alright (the day that I died)
Darkness falls, I'm letting go (the day that I died)
All alone but I feel just fine (the day that I died)
you know the happiest day of my life
I swear the happiest day of my life
I know the happiest day of my life, is the day that I died
Can you feel the cold tonight? (the day that I died)
It sets, but it's alright (the day that I died)
Darkness falls, I'm letting go (the day that I died)
All alone, but I feel fine (the day that I died)
Did I live it right?
I hope I lived it right
Did I live it right?
I know I lived it right
Did I live it right?
I hope I lived it right
Did I live it right?
Educated
With money
He's well dressed
Not funny
And not to say in
Most conversations
But he'll foot the bill in
Most situations
Cause he pays for everything
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny
Paper
Or plastic
Don't matter
She'll have it
Vacations
And shopping sprees
These are a few
Of her favorite things
She'll get what she wants
If she's willing to please
His type of girl
Always comes with a fee
Hey, now, there's nothing for free
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny
And these girls like these boys like these boys like these girls
The girls with the bodies like boys with Ferraris
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
Let's go!
Eh, eh!
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny
And these girls like these boys like these boys like these girls
The girls with the bodies like boys with Ferraris
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
All of these boys, yeah get all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
All of these boys, yeah get all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
All of these boys, yeah get all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
All of these boys, yeah get all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I ripped out
His throat
And called you on the telephone
To take off
My disguise
Just in time to hear you cry when you...
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
The night he died
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
One last time
Singin'...
Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight
There was
Police and
Flashing lights
The rain came down so hard that night and the
Headlines read
A lover died
No tell-tale heart was left to find when you...
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
The night he died
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
One last time
Singin'...
Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight
Tonight
He dropped you off, I followed him home
Then I, I stood outside his bedroom window
Standing over him, he begged me not to do
What I knew I had to do cause I'm so in love with you
Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight
Tonight
You call yourself a Lois Lane, and you're in pain, and I'm insane
You don't want my help, you don't need my help
I watch you fall down from the sky, I'll just sigh
Who is gonna save you
Yeah I've heard the talk
Superman can't walk
Who is gonna save you, when your Superman can't walk
I saw him just the other day, in physical therapy
Sitting in a wheelchair, you know I had to stare
And all your friends they think I'm sick, they think that I'm insensitive
They don't like the fun I'm poking, don't they know I'm only joking
Yeah I've heard the talk
Superman can't walk
Who is gonna save you, when your Superman can't walk
Call me what you will....I'm Dr. Evil
Call me what you want, but Superman can't walk
And all your friends they think I'm sick, they think that I'm insensitive
They don't like the fun I'm poking, don't they know I'm only joking
Yeah I've heard the talk
Superman can't walk
I was raised, to believe what I see,
So I pray, to God,
Give me strength, help me breathe,
When they suck, life from me,
Somethings wrong, Anything
Wrong with me, I don't see,
Anything, wrong with me.
So I write, and I pray,
and I live, day to day,
and I wait, for the sun,
and I love, everyone,
still they find, something wrong, anything
Wrong with me, I don't see,
Anything, wrong with me.
You can't hide what's inside what's inside
You can't hide what's inside what's inside
You can't hide what's inside what's inside
You can't hide what's inside when you die
You can't hide, what's inside
When you die, you will die.
Break me, break me down.
You can't hide what's inside when you die
You can't hide what's inside when you die
You can't hide what's inside when you die
You can't hide, What's inside
When you die, who will die
If you leave, dont leave now
Please dont take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our seperate ways
We always had time on our side
Now it's fading fast
Every second, every move
We've got to, we've gotta make it last
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I wont let go at any price
I needed you now like i needed you then
Always said we'd still be friends someday
If you leave i wont cry
I won't waste a single day
But if you leave, no dont look back
I'll be running the other way
Seven years went under the bridge
Our time was standing still
Heaven knows what happens now you've gotta
You've gotta say you will
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I wont let go at any price
I needed you now like i needed you then
Always said we'd still be friends someday
Someday
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I wont let go at any price
I needed you now like i needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday
Oh, if you leave
Oh, if you leave
Oh, if you leave (oh tell now me you wont leave)
Oh, if you leave (oh tell me now you wont leave)
Ooooo....
Ooooo....
I could sit for hours singing renditions of the sun
And we could talk for hours
Cos you know you're the one
And everytime I open up my heart to you
(You bring me down)
You rip it out
(Gravity girl)
You bring me down
(Bring me down)
You tell me that I'm with you
Cos you're my
Gravity girl
Gravity girl
I got my own
And my whole world
You're my
Gravity girl
I'm so high
In your world
I could sit for hours
Singing renditions of the sun
(Gravity girl)
We could talk for hours
Cos you know you're the one
(Gravity girl)
And every time I open up my heart to you
(You bring me down)
You rip it out
(Gravity girl)
You bring me down
(Bring me down)
You tell me that I'm with you
Cos you're my
Gravity girl
Gravity girl
I got my own
And my whole world
You're my
Gravity girl
I'm so high
In your world
Gravity girl
Gravity girl
Gravity girl
Gravity girl
Ooooooo....
Gravity girl
Gravity girl
Ooooooo....
How can it be easy to forget you when I think about you all the time
I never know how I miss you when I never had you, well nevermind
I move on, but I can't go on without you
Said I try, don't know why, what to do without you
Can't move on, can't move on
It'd be cool if we never met, if we never locked eyes
Then I'd feel so happy, not knowing you're so fine
I move on, but I can't go on without you
Said I try, don't know why, what to do without you
Can't move on, can't move on
I get so nuts when I'm around you there's nothing I can say
I wish you'd get outta my head, I think about you every day
I move on, but I can't go on without you
Said I try, don't know why, what to do without you
Can't move on, can't move on without...
ROCK!
I move on, but I can't go on without you
Said I try, don't know why, what to do without you
Listen up 'cause there ain't nothin' funny,
I wanna hot girl and a little bit of money,
I wanna little house where my band can live,
'Cause we're tired of movin' every other weekend,
I wanna go to parties where they got no guns,
I wanna rock with my band I wanna have a little fun,
Where thugs and punks and another other type,
Can sing this song and up sing it all night,
Everything's gonna be alright now,
Everything's gonna be alright,
Get down stay up all night now,
Let's do this one more time,
Everything'll be alright,
Everything will be alright, alright,
All I wanna do is kick the welfare,
All I wanna do is get my share,
And I don't wanna run for the president,
I just want an honest way to pay my rent,
And I'm tired of the man always shuttin' us down,
Tired of my old man 'cause he's never around,
And I'm tired of eating off of other people's plates,
And I don't look important so they're tellin' me to wait,
Police records said they wouldn't exist,
I wanna know the meaning of a Christmas list,
Said all I wanna do is kick the welfare,
All I wanna do is get my share,
All I wanna do is make somethin' from nothin',
It's GC baby and we're workin' with somethin',
CHORUS
We'll be self-made millionaires,
These lives we'll lead without a care,
Oh yeah,
And we'll see what we'll be,
Everything's gonna be alright now,
Everybody say ah yeah that's right,
Everything's gonna be alright now,
Everybody say it one more time,
Everything will be alright, alright,
We'll see you when we get there,
We'll see you when we get there,
On the video,
Or the radio,
In the magazines,
On the movie screens.
Yeah this song is dedicated to every kid who ever got picked last in gym class (this is for you)
To every kid who never had a date to no school dance(this is for you)
To everyone whose ever been called a freak (this is for you)
Here we go
What What Come on, What!
Ohhhhhhh(4x)
Like the time in school when we got free lunch and the cool kids beat us up
And the rich kids had convertibles and we had to ride the bus(55)
Like the time we made the baseball team but they still laughed at us(you still suck)
Like the time that girl broke up with me cuz I wasn't cool enough. TRICK!
(Chorus)
Thiiiings. Thiiiings.
Here we go.
The little things.Little things
They always hang around
Little things.Little things
They try to break me down
Little things.Little things
They just won't go away
Little things.Little things
Make me who I am today. GO!!
You wanna hate me now
But I won't stop now
Cuz I can't stop now!
Like the time mom went to the institute cuz she was breakin' down
Like the car we had that wouldn't start
We had to walk to get around (Hey can I getta ride)
And that same year on Christmas Eve
Dad went to the store (uhh I'll see you guys later)
We checked his room
His things were gone we didn't see him no more. DICK!
(Chorus)
What!What!What!What!
Little things(12x)
All these games you play
your messin' with my head,(messin with my head)
I don't know why I stay
I should leave instead (I should leave instead),
When I speak from my heart
you laugh like it's a game (this ain't no game)
Yeah we'd make great friends, but it just isn't the same...
And I know this is not the way it should be,
And I know you treat him like me,
But I don't wanna stop,
I don't wanna stop,
I don't wanna stop,
I don't wanna stop
Now I don't need you to buy me pretty things (you don't pay for me),
Pay for my tattoos or buy me diamond rings (we don't want those things),
All I know is that I'm happy to see you smile (i want to see you smile),
And it'd make my day if you'd just stay here awhile (stay with me),
This has gone on for way too long...
Take a look around, don't you see it
See that you are the only real face in the room?
No one here has a clue what you're feelin'
Don't feel bad, keep your sadness alive
Look at all these happy people
Living their lives
Look at all these plastic people
There's nothing inside
Look at all these shallow people
Telling their lies
Look at all these empty people, people
Don't you know
That misery loves company?
Yeah, I heard
That misery was looking for me
Happiness is a face
That don't look good on me
Yeah, I heard
That misery comes looking for me
Whoa, misery's my company
Whoa, misery is looking for me
Looking for me
The hands are up now, everybody see it
Everybody's movin', they program their feelings
They're synchronizing and criticizing
Don't feel bad, keep your sadness alive
Look at all these happy people
Living their lives
Look at all these plastic people
They're dying inside
Look at all these shallow people
Telling their lies
Look at all these empty people, people
Don't you know
That misery loves company?
Yeah, I heard
That misery was looking for me
Happiness is a face
That don't look good on me
Yeah, I heard
That misery comes looking for me
Whoa, misery's my company
Whoa, misery is looking for me
Don't you know this misery loves me?
Don't you know this misery loves me?

You're tired of hurting
You're tired of living in their lies
You're tired of listening
You're tired of hurting
Keep your sadness alive, alive, alive
Don't you know

Happiness is a face
That don't look good on me

If you want me to wait
I would wait for you
If you tell me to stay
I would stay right through
If you don't wanna say
Anything at all
I'm happy wondering
Yeah, yeah
Since I was a young man
I never was a frontman
I never had a plan and no security then
Ever since I met you
I never could forget you
I only get you right here next to me
Cause everybody (a-whoa-oh-oh)
Needs someone that they can trust in
And you're somebody (a-whoa-oh-oh)
That I found just in time
If you want me to wait
I would wait for you
If you tell me to stay
I would stay right through
If you don't wanna say
Anything at all
I'm happy wondering
Now my life is changing
It's always rearranging
Always gettin' stranger than I thought it ever could
Ever since I found you
I wanna be around you
I wanna get down to the point that I need you
Cause everybody (a-whoa-oh-oh)
Needs someone that they can trust in
And you're somebody (a-whoa-oh-oh)
That I found just in time
If you want me to wait
I would wait for you
If you tell me to stay
I would stay right through
If you don't wanna say
Anything at all
I'm happy wondering
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Don't tell me
The bad news
Don't tell me anything at all
Just tell me
That you need me
And stay right here with me
If you want me to wait
I would wait for you
If you tell me to stay
I would stay right through
If you don't wanna say
Anything at all
I'm happy wondering
If you want me to wait
I would wait for you
If you tell me to stay
I would stay right through
If you don't wanna say
Anything at all
Listen up 'cause there ain't nothin' funny,
I wanna hot girl and a little bit of money,
I wanna little house where my band can live,
'Cause we're tired of movin' every other weekend
I wanna go to parties where they got no guns,
I wanna rock with my band, I wanna have a little fun
Where thugs and punks and any other type,
Can sing this song and sing it all night,
Everything's gonna be alright now, everything's gonna be alright
Get down stay up all night now, Let's do this one more time,
Everything'll be alright, Everything will be alright, alright
All I wanna do is kick the welfare, all I wanna do is get my share
All I wanna do is kick the welfare, all I wanna do is get my share
And I don't wanna run for the president, I just want an honest way to pay my rent
And I'm tired of the man always shuttin' us down,
Tired of my old man 'cause he's never around
And I'm tired of eating off of other people's plates,
And I don't look important, so they're tellin' me to wait
Police records said they wouldn't exist,
I wanna know the meaning of a Christmas list
Said all I wanna do is kick the welfare,
All I wanna do is get my share,
All I wanna do is make somethin' from nothin',
It's GC baby and we're workin' with somethin',
We'll be self-made millionaires,
These lives we'll lead without a care, oh yeah,
And we'll see what we'll be
Everything's gonna be alright now,
Everybody say it one more time,
Everything will be alright, alright,
We'll see you when we get there, We'll see you when we get there,
She makes me laugh
She'll make me cry
And when we talk
She wonders why
That I can't breathe into this life
With the things she says I wanna die
All the things we talk about you know they stay on my mind
On my mind
All the things we laugh about they'll bring us through it everytime
After time after time
Cuz you're all I wanted to find
Cuz you're all I wanted to find
And I would drive, the whole night through
Just so I could spend it with you
I know you're mine, and I hope it's true
That when we fight, we will make it through
All the things we talk about you know they stay on my mind
On my mind
All the things we laugh about they'll bring us through it everytime
After time after time
Cuz you're all I wanted to find
Cuz you're all I wanted to find
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling down
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling down
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling down
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling down
Down, down, down
Cuz you're all i wanted to find
Cuz you're all i wanted to find
Cuz you're all i wanted to find
Cuz you're all i wanted to find
I feel so far away, from everything I used to be
So I just hang my head, and feel the shame
Like theres nothing I can do
I thought no time or space
Could separate us with all that we've been through
But now she's on a plane, she's miles away
And I just wanna go home
Oh there she goes so beautiful
But she said she don't know who I am
Oh there she goes so beautiful
But she's crying
Cause she liked me better when
I was different
No one knew me then
Back in Maryland
Way before I left
I had everything
Can't forget the days
I was back home in Maryland
We live too far away
From anything to run the race back then
From all these city streets
That jaded me and make me feel this way
Now my thoughts drift away to summer days
When I see your face
You'd always smile at me
I felt so safe
And I just wanna go home
Oh there she goes so beautiful
But she said she don't know who I am
Oh there she goes so beautiful
But she's crying
Cause she liked me better when
I was different
No one knew me then
Back in Maryland
Way before I left
I had everything
Can't forget the days
I was back home in Maryland
She lived in the eye for the first time
When I saw the world with my own eyes
But now that you're gone
I miss you so much more
Oh there she goes so beautiful
She's flying back home to Maryland
Oh there she goes so beautiful
But she's crying
Cause she liked me better when
Oh there she goes so beautiful
But she said she don't know who I am
Oh there she goes so beautiful
But she's crying
Cause she liked me better when
I was different
No one knew me then
Back in Maryland
Way before I left
I had everything
Can't forget the days
I was back home in Maryland
Oh there she goes so beautiful
But she's crying (Maryland)
Oh there she goes so beautiful
Hard days made me
Hard nights shaped me
I don't know they somehow saved me
And I know I'm making something
Out of this life they call nothing
I take what I want
Take what i need
You say it's wrong, but it's right for me
I won't look down
Won't say I'm sorry
I know that only God can judge me
And if I make it through today
Will tomorrow be the same?
Am I just running in place?
And if I stumble and I fall
Should I get up and carry on?
Will it all just be the same?
'Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless
I'm lost and I know this
I'm going nowhere fast thats what they say
I'm troublesome I've fallen
I'm angry at my father
It's me against this world and I don't care
I don't care
No one in this industry
Understands the life I lead
When I sing about my past
It's not a gimmick, not an act
These critics, and these trust fund kids
Try to tell me what punk is
But when I see them on the street they got nothing to say
And if I make it through today
Will tomorrow be the same?
Am I just running in place?
And if I stumble and I fall
Should I get up and carry on?
Will it all just be the same?
'Cause I'm young and I'm hopeless
I'm lost and I know this
I'm going nowhere fast thats what they say
I'm troublesome I've fallen
I'm angry at my father
It's me against this world and I don't care
I don't care. I don't care... and now I don't care
I'm young and I'm hopeless
I'm lost and I know this
I'm going nowhere fast thats what they say
I'm troublesome I've fallen
I'm angry at my father
It's me against this world and I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
So here we are
We are alone
There’s weight on your mind
I wanna know
The truth, if this is how you feel
Say it to me
If this was ever real
I want the truth from you
Give me the truth, even if it hurts me
I want the truth from you
Give me the truth, even if it hurts me
I want the truth
So this is you
You're talking to me
You found a million ways to let me down
So I'm not hurt when you're not around
I was blind
But now I see
This is how you feel
Just say it to me
If this was ever real
I want the truth from you
Give me the truth, even if it hurts me
I want the truth from you
Give me the truth, even if it hurts me
I know that this will break me
I know that this might make me cry
You gotta say what’s on your mind, on your mind
I know that this will hurt me
and break my heart and soul inside
I don’t wanna live this lie
I want the truth from you
Give me the truth, even if it hurts me
I want the truth from you
Give me the truth, even if it hurts
I don’t care no more, no
Just give me the truth, gimme' the truth
Cause I don’t care no more
Give me the truth
Cause I don’t care no more, no
Just give me the truth
Give me the truth[4x]
You think you're cool
You're in a band
Couldn't get a girl
now you're in demand
Did you put them down?
Did you leave them out?
Now when we play
you scream & shout
Could he write a song like this?
I'm the one you're gonna miss
The love I saw, you couldn't see
I always knew we'd never be
Could you love me now?
Yeah, this song is dedicated(this is good charlotte) to every kid who ever got picked last in gym class (yeah, 1999)
This is for you
To every kid who never had a date to no school dance (2000 eternal)
This is for you
To everyone who's ever been called a freak (come with meeeee)
Here we, here we go
What? (y'all know what I'm talking about, y'all know what I'm saying)
ohhhohhhh ohhhohhhh ohhohhhh ohhhohhhh
Like the time in school when we got free lunch and the cool kids beat us up (reduced lunch!)
And the rich kids had convertibles and we had to ride the bus (fifty-five)
Like the time we made the baseball team, but they still laughed at us (you still suck)
Like the time that girl broke up with me cause I wasn't cool enough
Trick!
Thiiiings thiiiings thiiiings
The little things little things they always hang around
The little things little thingsthey try to break me down
The little things little things they just won't go away
The little things little thingsmade me who I am today
You wanna hate me know
But I won't stop know, cause I can't stop now
What? Come on. Ungh.
Here we go
Like the time mom went to that institute cause she was breaking down (I just can't take it!)
Like the car we had that wouldn't start, we had to walk to get around (Can I get a ride?)
And that same year on Christmas Eve, Dad went to the store (uh, I'll see you guys later)
We checked his room, his things were gone
We didn't see him no more
Dick!
Thiiiings thiiiings thiiiigs
The little things little things they always hang around
The little things little things they try to break me down
The little things little things they just won't go away
The little things little things made me who I am today
You wanna hate me now
But I won't stop now, cause I can't stop now
The Little Things X-15
It always seems those little things they take the biggest part of me It always seems those little things they take the biggest part of me It always seems those little things they take the biggest part of me
And I know that those little things they make the biggest part of me break down
I'm breaking down
Break down
The start of Armageddon
It was just another day
We all saw the news, nothing to say
So many friends are missing
And family members gone
So we all pray that God help them be strong
And now we stand together
Remembering that day
The lives we live will never be the same
And we don't know why
The innocent die
Will this world ever find a way to change?
And we don't know why
But we know it's not right
We don't know why so many had to die
We don't know why so many had to die
Hate has turned to others
For their religion or their skin
But hate can't solve the problem it began
Everyone is angry
People are afraid
And no one knows what decisions will be made
And we don't know why
The innocent die
Will this world ever find a way to change?
And we don't know why
But we know it's not right
We don't know why so many had to die
We don't know why so many had to die
And we don't know why (don't know why)
The innocent die (don't know why)
Will this world ever find a way to change?
And we don't know why (don't know why)
But we know it's not right (don't know why)
Will any of us ever be the same?
Will any of this ever be the same?
And we don't know why
The innocent die
Will any of us ever be the same?
The fish, a lonely creature
With only one good feature
Which was (yeah yeah)
A small wart on his face (yeah yeah)
And the fish in the sea couldn't find in themselves to deal with the wart
They were just fish I mean fish!
(yeah yeah)
One day I woke up
I woke up knowing
Today is the day
I will die
Cashdogg was barking
Went to the park and enjoyed it one last time
I called my mother, told her I loved her
And I begged her not to cry
I wrote a letter
That said I'd miss her
And I signed that Goodbye
[Chorus:]
You know the happiest day of my life
I swear the happiest day of my life
Is the day that I die
Can you feel the cold tonight (the day that I die)
It sets in, but it's alright (the day that I die)
Darkness falls, I'm letting go (the day that I die)
All alone but I feel just fine (the day that I die)
We took a drive and we drove to D.C.
To see the places we live
Long conversations we talked of old friends
And all the things that we did
Summer nights
Drunken fights
Mistakes we made
Did we live it right
[Chorus:]
You know the happiest day of my life
I swear the happiest day of my life
Is the day that I die
Can you feel the cold tonight (the day that I die)
It sets in, but it's alright (the day that I die)
Darkness falls, I'm letting go (the day that I die)
All alone but I feel just fine (the day that I die)
[Chorus:]
You know the happiest day of my life
I swear the happiest day of my life
I know the happiest day of my life
Is the day that I die
Can you feel the cold tonight (the day that I die)
It sets in but it's alright (the day that I die)
Darkness falls, I'll letting it go (the day that I die)
All alone but I feel just fine (the day that I die)
Did I live it right, I hope I lived it right (the day that I die)
Did I live it right, I know I lived it right (the day that I die)
Yeah
Here, we go
It's a new day
But it all feels old
It's a good life
That's what I'm told
But every day, it all just feels the same
And my high school
It felt more to me
Like a jail cell
A penitentiary
My time spent there it only made me see
That I don't ever wanna be like you
I don't wanna do the things you do
I'm never gonna hear the words you say
And I don't ever wanna
I don't ever wanna be
You, don't wanna be just like you
What I'm sayin' is, this is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
You, don't wanna be you
Go to college
A university
Get a real job
That's what they said to me
But I could never, live the way they want
I'm gonna get by
And just do my time
Out of step while
They all get in line
I'm just a minor threat so pay no mind
Do you really wanna to be like them?
Do you really wanna be another trend?
Do you wanna be part of that crowd?
'Cause I don't ever wanna
I don't ever wanna be, you
Don't wanna be just like you
What I'm saying is, this is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
You, don't wanna be you
Shake it once that's fine
Shake it twice that's okay
Shake it three times
Your playin' with your self again
(You, don't wanna be just like you)
What I'm saying is, this is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
Now you can feel me
Sing if you're with me
You, don't wanna be just like you
(Just like you)
This is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
Now you can feel me
Sing if you're with me
Another loser anthem
(Wahoo)
Another loser anthem
(Wahoo)
Another loser anthem
(Wahoo)
Always, always and forever
Always, always and forever
I'm sitting here, I'm thinking back
To a time when I was young
My memory is clear as day
I'm listening to the dishes clink
You were downstairs, you would sing
Songs of praise
And all the times we laughed with you
And all the times that you stayed true to us
Now we'll say
I said I thank you, I'll always thank you
More than you would know, than I could ever show
And I love you, I'll always love you
There's nothing I won't do, to say these words to you
That you're beautiful forever
Always, always and forever
You were my mom, you were my dad
The only thing I ever had was you, it's true
And even when the times got hard
You were there to let us know that we'd get through
You showed me how to be a man
You taught me how to understand the things people do
You showed me how to love my God
You taught me that not everyone knows the truth
And I thank you, I'll always thank you
More than you will know, than I could ever show
And I love you, I'll always love you
There's nothing I won't do, to say these words to you
That you will live forever
Forever and ever
Forever and ever
Said I thank you, we'll always thank you
More than you will know, than I could ever show
And I love you, we'll always love you
There's nothing I won't do, to say these words to you
I thank you, we'll always thank you
More than you would know, than I could ever show
And I love you, we'll always love you
There's nothing I won't do, to say these words to you
This is about all of us, this is our song. Me and you.
Talk to me, and tell me
About you, and I'll try
To understand the things you've done, and the things you've been through yeah.
These are words I've never heard
From anyone but now I've sung
But that's ok 'cause I've learned that I like to be alone.
I tried to warn you.
I tried to say that I'd walk away.
I tried to tell you.
But no one listens to me anyway.
Where do you go now,
When you're seventeen years old?
You've got no one,
You've got nothing,
You've got nowhere to belong?
That's right, that's me.
Always guilty.
I'm trying to fit in
Where I just don't get in but
That's ok 'cause we're the same.
We've done ok, we've got no name.
And that's alright 'cause we've learned
This is our song.
Where do I go now,
Now I'm twenty-one years old?
Still got no one,
Still got nothing,
Still got nowhere to belong?
Some hard days, some hard nights,
Twenty-one years still nothing's right.
Some hard days, some hard nights,
Twenty-one years still nothing's right.
Nothing's right, nothing's right.
Where do I go?
As I start to make my way back home
Through the crowded streets where the people come and go
All the faces that I see, they seem to show,
A standing ovation, for you
A standing ovation, for you.
We're alive, now let's just take our time
Now let's just make the most of every day we have,
The most of every moment, we're alive
Now let's not waste our time
Now let's just make the most of every breath we take
The most of every second we're alive
Ohhhh, 'cause we're alive
Ohhhh.
Out the window of a train, the cities go
Pass so fast just like the days I watch you grow
And one day you will walk away from all you know
This standing ovation's for you
This standing ovation's for you.
We're alive, now let's just take our time
Now let's just make the most of every day we have,
The most of every moment, we're alive
Now let's not waste our time
Now let's just make the most of every breath we take
The most of every second we're alive.
Can't you see, the world is on their feet for you and me
And it's alright, you've got me
'Cause even when I'm gone, I'll never leave
So go and get your dreams.
We're alive, now let's just take our time
Now let's just make the most of every day we have,
The most of every moment, we're alive
Now let's not waste our time
Now let's just make the most of every breath we take
The most of every second we're alive.
Ohhhh, we're alive
'Cause we're alive
Ohhhh, we're alive.
As I start to make my way back home
I can't help but crack a smile, 'cause I know
This standing ovation's for you

she's got a smile so sweet
it's every little thing for my head down to her feet
out of the magazine
and i seen her on the tv
i love the song she sings
cause when i turn her on it's like she singing to me
and every word she means
like it could be about me (it could be about me)
chorus:
she sounds to me
she sounds like sex on the radio
i love to hear her scream
and when i push play she's screaming in stereo
she sounds like sex on the radio
she put sex on the radio (sex on the radio)
i knew that we would meet
at one of those shows they do for the radio
and when she looked at me
all i said was hello (all i said was hello)
i took her out to eat
cause we were in a city that neither one of us knew
we never went to sleep
cause when the sun came up, we knew that we would have to go
chorus:
she sounds to me
she sounds like sex on the radio
i love to hear her scream
and when i push play she's screaming in stereo
she sounds like sex on the radio
she put sex on the radio (sex on the radio) x2
i've gotta admit, this feelings legit
i don't wanna stop and she don't want me to quit
but she gets a little nervous with what we do,
scared what they would say,
what they would talk about if they knew
heard her sing a song
Yeah, i knew that she would write about it
Saw her in a magazine, i knew she could keep it quiet
keep it in the sheets, the radio the beats
between you and me, we'll throw away the key
chorus:
she sounds to me
she sounds like sex on the radio
i love to hear her scream
and when i push play she's screaming in stereo
she sounds like sex on the radio
she put sex on the radio (sex on the radio)
she sounds to me
she sounds like sex on the radio
feels like to me
Here I am on
The phone again, and
Awkward silence is
On the other end
I used to know the sound
Of a smile in your voice
But right now (right now)
All I feel (All I feel)
Is the pain of the fighting
Starting up again
All the things we talk about
You know they stay on my mind
On my mind
All the things we laugh about
They'll bring us through it every time
After time after time
Don't say a word
I know you feel the same
Just give me a sign
Say anything, say anything
Please don't walk away
I know you wanna stay
Just give me a sign
Say anything, say anything
Some say that
Time changes
Best friends can
Become strangers
But I don't want that
No, not for you
If you just stay with me, we can make it through
So Here we are again
The same old argument
And now I'm wonderin'
If things'll ever change, yeah
When will you laugh again?
Laugh like you did back when
We'd make noise til 3 AM and the neighbors would complain
All the things we talk about
You know they stay on my mind
On my mind
All the things we laugh about
They'll bring us through it every time
After time after time
Don't say a word
I know you feel the same
Just give me a sign
Say anything, say anything
Please don't walk away
I know you wanna stay
Just give me a sign
Say anything, say anything
I'm fallin'
I'm fallin'
I'm fallin' down
I'm fallin'
I'm fallin'
I'm fallin' down
Down
Down
Down
Don't say a word
I know you feel the same
Just give me a sign
Say anything, say anything
Please don't walk away
I know you wanna stay
If you'll just give me a sign
Say anything, say anything
Don't say a word (Please don't leave)
I know you feel the same
Just give me a sign
Say anything, say anything
Please don't walk away (Please don't leave)
I know you wanna stay
Just give me a sign
Is anybody listening?
Can you hear me when I call?
I'm shooting signals in the air
'Cause I need somebody's help
I can't make it on my own
So I'm giving up myself
Is anybody listening?
Listening
I've been stranded here and I'm miles away
Making signals hoping they'd save me
I lock myself inside these walls
'Cause out there I'm always wrong
I don't think I'm gonna make it
So while I'm sitting here
On the eve of my defeat
I write this letter and hope it saves me
Is anybody listening?
Can you hear me when I call?
Shooting signals in the air
'Cause I need somebody's help
I can't make it on my own
So I'm giving up myself
Is anybody listening?
Listening
I'm stuck in my own head and I'm oceans away
Would anybody notice if I chose to stay?
I send an SOS tonight
I wonder if I will survive
How in the hell did I get so far away this time?
So now I'm sitting here
The time of my departure's near
I say a prayer
Please someone save me
Is anybody listening?
Can you hear me when I call?
Shooting signals in the air
'Cause I need somebody's help
I can't make it on my own
So I'm giving up myself
Is anybody listening?
Listening
I'm lost here
I can't make it on my own
I don't wanna die alone
I'm so scared
Drowning now
Reaching out
Holding on to everything I know
Crying out
Dying now
Need some help
Is anybody listening?
Can you hear me when I call?
Shooting signals in the air
I need somebody's help
I can't make it on my own
I'm giving up myself
As I leave the empty station,
First thing I see is the sun over the mountains.
West Hastings Street, anxiously waiting.
That's when I feel that God is all around me.
And I don't know where to begin, to say I'm sorry for my sins,
So I collapse into your open arms
I'm sorry it took me so long,
Out here, for me to find my way back home.
I didn't have a reason,
For when I stopped believing,
But I needed you to know -
That I'm right where I belong.
Now I see everything clearly,
In the rearview,
That you were right beside me.
So long ago, my voice of reason,
It disappeared, along with my convictions -
And now I know where it begins,
Accept forgiveness for my sins,
And I collapse into your open arms
If all we are is where we've been,
Then I know where I want to be.
No matter how far I drift again,
You keep a light on for me -
Out here, so I can find my way back home…
I didn't have a reason, for when I stopped believing,
But I needed you to know that I'm right where I belong now, with you,
So I'll stay quiet in your arms.
Words don't have the meaning,
There's no use in repeating,
But I needed you to know
put your hands on my shoulder
hold me in yours arms, baby
squeeze me oh so tight and show me
that you love me too
put your lips next to mine dear,
wont you kiss once so baby,
just to kiss goodnight and maybe
you and i will fall in love
people say
that love is a game
a game, you just cant win
if theres a way i'll find it someday
and then this fool will rush in
put your hands on my shoulder
whisper in my ear baby
words i wanna hear, tell me
tell me that you love me too
put your hands on my shoulder
whipser in my ear baby
words i wanna hear baby
Something isn't right
I can feel it again feel it again
This isn't the first time
That you left me waiting
Sad excuses and false hopes high
I saw this coming still I don't know why
I let you in
I knew it all along
You're so predictable
I knew something would go wrong (Something's always wrong)
So you don't have to call
Or say anything at all
You're so predictable (So predictable)
So take your empty words your broken promises
And all the time you stole cause I am done with this
I can give it away, give it away
I'm doing everything I should of
And now I'm making a change
I'm living the day
I'm giving back what you gave me
I don't need anything
I knew it all along
You're so predictable
I knew something would go wrong (Something's always wrong)
So you don't have to call
Or say anything at all
You're so predictable (So predictable)
[Joels rant]
Everywhere I go
Everyone I meet
Every time I try to fall in love
They all want to know why I'm so broken
Why am I so cold?
Why I'm so hard inside?
Why am I scared?
What am I afraid of?
I don't even know
This story's never had an end
I've been waiting
I've been searching
I've been hoping
I've been dreaming you would come back
But I know the ending of this story
You're never coming back
NEVER!..never..never..never.....[echo].....
I knew it all along
You're so predictable
I knew something would go wrong (Something's always wrong)
So you don't have to call
Or say anything at all
You're so predictable (So predictable)
[Joel ranting again]
Everywhere I go for the rest of my life (So predictable)
Everyone that I love
Everyone I care about
They're all gonna wanna know what's wrong with me (So predictable)
And I know what it is
Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I ripped out
His throat
And called you on the telephone
To take off
My disguise
Just in time to hear you cry when you
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
The night he died
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
One last time
Singin'
Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight
There was
Police and flashing lights
The rain came down so hard that night and the
Headlines read
A lover died
No tell-tale heart was left to find when you
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
The night he died
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
One last time
Singin'
Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight
Tonight
He dropped you off, I followed him home
Then I, stood outside his bedroom window
Standing over him, he begged me not to do
What I knew I had to do, 'cause I'm so in love with you
Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight
Always see it on t.v.
Or read it in the magazines
Celebrities want sympathy
All they do is piss and moan
Inside the rolling stone
Talkin'about how hard life can be
I'd like to see them spend a week
Livin' life out on the street
I don't think they would survive
If they could spend a day or two
Walkin' in someone else's shoes
I think they'd stumble and they'd fall
They would fall... (fall)
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin'
Always complainin'...
If money is such a problem
Well they've got mansions
Think we should rob them
Well did you know when you were famous you could kill your wife
And there's no such thing as 25 to life
As long as you've got the cash, to pay for Cochran
And did you know if you were caught and you were smokin' crack
McDonalds wouldn't even wanna take you back
You could always just run for mayor of D.C.
I'd like to see them spend a week
Livin' life out on the street
I don't think they would survive
If they could spend a day or two
Walking in someone else's shoes
I think they'd stumble and they'd fall
they would fall
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin'
Always complainin'...
If money is such a problem
Well they've got mansions
Think we should rob them
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin'
Always complainin'...
If money is such a problem
They've got so many problems
Think I could solve them
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
We'll take your clothes, cash, cars and homes just stop complainin'
Lifestyles of the rich and famous...
Lifestyles of the rich and famous...
There's a song that you can find
In every moment of your life
In every tear you've ever cried
In every painful last goodbye
So when the system breaks you down
Just listen to the sound
What do I do when it's all been done?
When the words have all been sung ?
And I've given up the best of me?
Late the music play.
When I'm hangin by a thread
And I've got nothing to give
Let the music play
Let the music play
There's no way to explain
Why life is filled with so much pain
But do the flowers ever grow
In the places it don't rain
So when the storms just beat you down
Well listen to the sound
What do I do when it's all been done?
When the words have all been sung ?
And I've given up the best of me?
Late the music play.
When I'm hangin by a thread
And I've got nothing to give
Let the music play
Let the music play
Let the music play
Horace sings a distant song
Forgotten words that I once sung
Tellin' me to just keep holdin' on
I've never been more alone than here
I turn and face my darkest fear
I just got to keep on keepin' on
And when it all comes crashing down
Just listen to the sound
What do I do when it's all been done?
When the words have all been sung ?
And I've given up the best of me?
Late the music play.
When I'm hangin by a thread
And I've got nothing to give
Let the music play
Let the music play
Let the music play
Down in the streets outside of Washington, D.C.,
I wasted all my time and you were there with me,
Back then it meant so much to have you by my side,
I always had your back, and you always had mine
Sayin...
Let me go, Have some fun,
Well my decision sucks, yeah
But I'm so young
We'd hang out late and fight just trying to have fun
We were such punk ass kids but we knew everyone
And who could see through such blazed up bloodshot eyes,
Let's go.
All that I remember is that you had me at hello.
I knew right when I met her that I wouldn't take it slow.
The more we heard the music, the more we got in synch.
The more I kept you laughing, the less I stopped to think.
The last thing I remember, you said this place is beat.
It must have gotten crazy, 'cuz I can't recall a thing.
Last night(last night),
Can't remember(remember)
What happened? (What happened?)
Where'd we go?
I woke up (woke up)
This morning.(This morning)
Where's my car? Where's my keys? Where's my clothes?
I feel my head's still spinning
But I'm doing alright (hey)
'Cuz I think I just had the best night of my life.
Last night(last night),
Can't remember(remember)
What happened? Did it happen? Last night
Everyone's been calling like I've been gone for days.
There's a note left on the table and all it says is "Thanks".
It's starting to get focused and I'm finally awake.
I'm feeling kind of guilty. Is there something I can take?
There's lipstick on my collar. I'm piecing it together.
Then I see a picture of me and you
Last night(last night),
Can't remember(remember)
What happened? (What happened?)
Where'd we go?
I woke up (woke up)
This morning.(This morning)
Where's my car? Where's my keys? Where's my clothes?

But I'm doing alright (hey)
'Cuz I think I just had the best night of my life.
Last night(last night),
Can't remember(remember)
What happened? Did it happen? Last night
And did I get the chance to say that I wanted you to stay?
There's things I can't explain, 'cuz my brain don't work that way.
Don't call this a one night stand. No, it wasn't planned.
Wasn't in my head but I just wanna do it again and again and again just like...

Let the record play,
Let the record play,
Let the record play.
The way that you dance,
The way that you move,
The way that you stare at me across the room,
You carry Dior bags,
And you got your Chanel,
You wear Louis Vuitton, HG and YSL,
Now I got Bathing Ape,
I got DCMA,
I got brass knuckles hanging,
From my neck in my chain,
I got model 26,
But she stays in her place,
I got Kershaw neatly,
Tucked inside my waist.
And the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
The hipsters keep muggin on me all night long,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands of my girl,
Keep your hands of my girl,
They say "Aha, ahha",
But the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands of my girl,
Keep your hands of my girl.
Now she sweating my friends,
And my hurricane shoes,
She likes the records I spin,
My Adam Barton tatoos,
But she cant say "whats up",
So what does she do,
She just stays posted up,
The other side of the room,
I got AMC tatooed on my hand,
I got black wall street on my black bandana.
And the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
The hipsters keep muggin on me all night long,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands of my girl,
Keep your hands of my girl,
They say "Aha, ahha",
But the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands of my girl,
Keep your hands of my girl.
She, she, she dont wanna talk about it,
He, he, he wants to fight about,
Me, me I dont wanna fight about it,
I just wanna be about it,
Im just trying to stay out of it,
Step out the wagon,
You know the boy starts to hate,
The girl that came with him,
They like thats not the boy she dates,
They They keep on fighting and swearing,
And now the boyfriend is staring,
Thhe disco ball on the ceiling,
Looks like the chain im wearing,
But the music keeps playing.
I got brass knuckles hanging,
From my neck in my chain,
I got brass knuckles hanging,
From my neck in my chain.
And the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
The hipsters keep muggin on me all night long,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands of my girl,
Keep your hands of my girl,
They say "Aha, ahha",
But the record keeps playing,
The same old song,
They say "Aha, ahha",
Keep your hands of my girl,

You carry Dior bags,
And you got your Chanel,
You wear Louis Vuitton, HG and YSL,
Now I got Bathing Ape,

I got brass knuckles hanging,
From my neck in my chain,
I got brass knuckles hanging,
This world, this world is cold
But you don't, you don't have to go
You're feeling sad, you're feeling lonely
And no one seems to care
You're mother's gone and your father hits you
This pain you cannot bear
But we all bleed the same way as you do
And we all have the same things to go through
Hold on, if you feel like letting go
Hold on, it gets better than you know
Days, you say they're way too long
And your nights, you can't sleep at all
Hold on
And you're not sure what you're waiting for
But you don't want to know more
And you're not sure what you're looking for
But you don't want to know more
But we all bleed the same way as you do
And we all have the same things to go through
Hold on, if you feel like letting go
Hold on, it gets better than you know
Don't stop looking, you're one step closer
Don't stop searching, it's not over
Hold on
What are you looking for?
What are you waiting for?
Do you know, what you're doing to me?
Go ahead, what are you waiting for?
Hold on, if you feel like letting go
Hold on, it gets better than you know
Don't stop looking, you're one step closer
Don't stop searching, it's not over
Hold on, if you feel like letting go
Hold on, it gets better than you know
Hey Dad, where you been for so long?
Why won't you look at me?
Is there something wrong?
Do you remember me, the son that you conceived?
Why won't you look at me?
A son that you deceived.
Oh God, what did I do to deserve this?
A man I never knew.
A man I cannot miss.
I gave you many chances, many that you took.
And now I stand before you,
You won't even look.
How can we start all over when we never began?
How can you be a father,
When you're not even a man?
Why do you play these games?
That are in my head
You said you'd love me dearly,
but it looks like he's dead.
Oh God, what did I do to deserve this?
A man I never knew.
A man I cannot miss.
How can we start all over when we never began?
How can you be a father,
When you're not even a man?
Why do you play these games?
That are in my head
You said you'd love me dearly,
but it looks like he's dead. (hey dad, hey dad)
So then came kids of my own.
I was there for them.
I am the man you couldn't be. (I didn't learn from him.)
Where he is, I don't even know at all.
I don't even remember,
The last time he called.
How can we start all over when we never began?
How can you be a father,
When you're not even a man?
Why do you play these games?
That are in my head
You said you'd love me dearly,
but it looks like he's dead.
Oh God, what did I do to deserve this?
A man I never knew.
A man I cannot miss.
How can we start all over?
How can we start all over?
How can we start all over?
How can we start all over?
I can't dream without you....
When you close your eyes and go to sleep tonight,
I'll be right outside your door,
dreams will come and they'll take you away,
let them bring you back to me
And tomorrow when you wake I'll be next to you,
the protection from the day,
when the tears fall down your face like morning dew,
I'll be there to put a smile on your face,
and I'll say
I don't wanna live this life without you,I don't wanna spend the night without you,I don't wanna know what it's like,
I can't dream without you.I can't dream without you.
Let your fire burn bright for the world to see,
you are the better part of me
when you hold my hand I swear that I believe,
I'm living in my wildest dreamsand I see
I don't wanna live this life without you,I don't wanna spend the night without you,I don't wanna know what it's like,
I can't dream without you.
Flowers for your hair,
rainbows for your eyes to see,
your dreams are everywhere,
to carry you away from me,
away from me someday,
away from me someday
I don't wanna live this life without you,I don't wanna spend the night without you,I don't wanna know what it's like,
I can't dream without you.
I don't wanna live this life without you,I don't wanna spend the night without you,I don't wanna know what it's like,
Educated with money
He's well dressed not funny
And not much to say in most conversations
But he'll foot the bill in all situations
'Cause he pays for everything
Girls don't like boys
Girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny
Paper or plastic
Don't matter she'll have it
Vacations and shopping sprees
These are a few of her favorite things
She'll get what she wants if she's willing to please
His type of girl always comes with a fee
Hey now there's nothing for free
Girls don't like boys
Girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny
And these girls like these boys
Like these boys like these girls
The girls with the bodies like boys with ferraris
Girls don't like boys
Girls like cars and money
(repeat till end)
All of these boys getting all of these girls
I will wait until the end
When the pendulum will swing back to the
Darker side of our hearts bleeding
I will save this empty space
Next to me like it's a grave
Where I lay a place for us to sleep eternally together
I have been
Searching for
Traces of
What we were
A ghost of you
Is all that I have left
It's all that i have left of you to hold
I wake in the end to find there's no one there but me
And nothing left of what we were at all
So here I am
Pacing around this house again
With pictures of us living on these walls
I see my breath in the cold of the air that I breathe
And I'm wondering
I'm wondering if it's you that I feel
If it's you that I feel here
Haunting me forever
I have been
Searching for
Traces of
What we were
A ghost of you
Is all that I have left
It's all that i have left of you to hold
I wake in the end to find there's no one there but me
And nothing left of what we were at all
And I'm not looking for
Anything but us
Anything but what we were
And I'm not asking for
Painted memories
I only want to know you're here
A ghost of you
Is all that I have left
It's all that i have left of you to hold
I wake in the end to find there's no one there but me
And nothing left of what we were at all
A ghost of you
Is all that I have left
It's all that i have left of you to hold
I wake in the end to find there's no one there but me
I been working so hard
I punch my card
Eight hours, for what?
Now tell me what I got
I get this feeling
That time's just holding me down
I'll hit the ceiling
Or else I'll tear up this town
Now I gotta cut
Loose, footloose
Kick off my Sunday shoes
Please, Louise
Pull me offa my knees
Jack, get back
C'mon before we crack
Lose your blues
Come on and get footloose
You're playing so cool
Obeying every rule
Dig way down in your heart
You're burning, yearning for some
Somebody to tell you
That life ain't passing you by
I'm trying to tell you
It will if you don't even try
now you gotta cut
Loose, footloose
Kick off the Sunday shoes
Oowhee, Marie
Shake it, shake it for me
Whoa, my lord
C'mon, c'mon let's go
Lose your blues
Everybody get footloose
you've got to turn me around
You put your feet on the ground
Now take a hold of your soul
I'm turning
Loose, footloose
Kick off your Sunday shoes
Please, Louise
Pull me offa my knees
Jack, get back
C'mon before we crack
Lose your blues
Come on and get footloose
Footloose, footloose
Kick off your Sunday shoes
Oowhee, Marie
Shake it, shake it for me
Whoa, My lord
C'mon, c'mon let's go
Lose your blues
Walking on the streets of D.C.,
On the eastcoast where I live, You say what's the problem
What's with this angry kid
You don't like the way I walk, Or the way I talk,
Or the way I swing my hands,
You don't like the words I speak, or the thoughts I think
And I know you'll understand
You know-
On the eastcoast, we ride until we die-
You know,
Well there's a place inside my mind,
Yeah a place you'll never find,
There's a place inside my mind, We'll leave today
Wouldn't it be perfect if I could sit with you?
And we would change a thing or 2, we would change a thing or 2,
We would change the way you think, we would change the way I think,
We can't change the way they think so we're not changin' anything
She’s going out to forget they were together
All that time he was taking her for granted
She wants to see if there’s more
than he gave she’s looking for
He calls her up
He’s trippin on the phone now
He doesn’t want her out there
And alone now
He knows she’s movin it
Knows she’s using it
Now he’s losing it
She don’t care
Everybody put up your hands

He was always giving her attention
Looking hard to find the things she mentioned
He was dedicated
But most suckers hate it
That girl was fine
But she didn’t appreciate him
She calls him up
She’s tripping on the phone now
He had to get up
And he ain’t comin home now
He’s tryin to forget her
That’s how we come with him
When he first met her
When they first got together
Everybody put up your hands
Say I don’t wanna be in love
I don’t wanna be in love
Feel the beat now
If you got nothing left

It’s something that we do now
Everyone has got to do it sometime
It’s okay, let it go
Get out there and find someone
It’s too late to be trippin' on the phone here
Get off the wire
You know everything is good here
Stop what you’re doin'
You don’t wanna ruin
The chance that you got to
find a new one
Everybody put up your hands
Say I don’t wanna be in love
I don’t wanna be in love
Feel the beat now

Nooo...Noooo
Wake up, go to work, come home, it's not working
We've been living our whole lives
on a system that is broken
Your words, I hear them
They're sharp, can't get near them
We got one last chance,
one more time to make this happen
We got one time, time to get this right
Two times and you know it's not my style
three's company, just you and me,
we need to figure this one out
four letter words are all you said
five minutes later we're in bed
Can't count on you to love me,
but I can count the days since you've been gone
Wake up, I come home, I realized that its not working
you're gone and it goes
I miss the noise of all our fighting
and you know that I don't mean a word I say
and I know that you don't wanna stay away
how long am I gonna be counting the days you're gone
We got one time, time to get this right
two times and you know it's not my style
three's company, just you and me,
we need to figure this one out
four letter words are all you said
five minutes later we're in bed
Can't count on you to love me,
but I can count the days since you've been gone
Ever since I saw you,
there was no-one else, just you and me
(you're all that I could see)
but I got this problem
I don't know how to say what I mean, what I mean
We got one time, time to get this right
two times and you know it's not my style
three's company, just you and me,
we need to figure this one out
We got one time, time to get this right
two times and you know it's not my style
three's company, just you and me,
we need to figure this one out
four letter words are all you said
five minutes later we're in bed
Can't count on you to love me,
but I can count the days since you've been gone
can count the days since you've been gone
Wake up, go to work, come home, it's not working
We've been living our whole lives
Your heart is a vessel that can carry you far away,
Further than you've ever gone before.
It could swallow an ocean in the palm of your hand,
But only if you open up that door.
Cardiology is guiding you and me,
Through ancient history,
A new technology,
Cardiology is a mystery.
Is there a formula that could possibly explain,
What can feel so good, and bring you so much pain.
Science is no help, when we reach the day,
We face the truth that love can slip away.
Cardiology is guiding you and me,
Through ancient history,
A new technology,
Cardiology is a mystery.
Take apart this heart, tell me where to start,
No book that i can find has the answer,
Medicine can't cure, the fact that i'm still yours,
Even though you've gone on without me.
Cardiology is guiding you and me,
Through ancient history,
A new technology,
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Here we go ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
We got problems, we don't know how to solve them
Everywhere we go, we got some skeleton's that follow
We got baggage, you know we're gonna drag it
everywhere we go, for everyone to see
In the broken hearts parade
and I'm putting my heart out on display there's no,
masquerade, just a funeral march for love today
the band strikes up and they're playing our song
Dressed in black and we're singing along, to the
broken hearts parade, I've never been better than I am today
Go ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
You got a question, how do we get it started?
I got an answer: let go of your heart and
love it, live it, leave it and get into it
If you wanna start it, this is how you do it
In the broken hearts parade
and I'm putting my heart out on display there's no,
masquerade, just a funeral march for love today
the band strikes up and they're playing our song
Dressed in black and we're singing along, to the
broken hearts parade and I've never been better than I am today
I used to lie awake at night and wonder when she's coming home
It used to be so hard to wake up everyday
The broken hearts parade
and we're putting our hearts out on display there's no,
masquerade, just a funeral march for love today
the band strikes up and they're playing our song
Dressed in black and we're singing along, to the
broken hearts parade and I've never been better than I am today
March on to the sound
the beating of a broken heart
step with the rhythm you found
Educated
With money
He's well dressed
Not funny
And not much to say in
Most conversations
But he'll put the bill in
All situations
Cause he pays for everything
(chours)
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny
Paper
Or plastic
Don't matter
She'll have it
Vacations
And shopping sprees
These are a few
Of her favorite things
She'll get what she wants
If she's willing to please
His type of girl
Always comes with a fee
Hey, now, there's nothing for free
(chours)
And these girls like these boys like these boys like these girls
The girls with the bodies like boys with Ferraris
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
Let's go!
Eh, eh!
(chours)
And these girls like these boys like these boys like these girls
The girls with the bodies like boys with Ferraris
Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
All of these boys, yeah get all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
All of these boys, yeah get all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
All of these boys, yeah get all of these girls
Losing their souls in a material world
All of these boys, yeah get all of these girls
Yeah
Here, we go
It's a new day
But it all feels old
It's a good life
That's what I'm told
But every day, it all just feels the same
And my high school
It felt more to me
Like a jail cell
A penitentiary
My time spent there it only made me see
That I don't ever wanna be like you
I don't wanna do the things you do
I'm never gonna hear the words you say
And I don't ever wanna
I don't ever wanna be
You, don't wanna be just like you
What I'm sayin' is, this is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
You, don't wanna be you
Go to college
A university
Get a real job
That's what they said to me
But I could never, live the way they want
I'm gonna get by
And just do my time
Out of step while
They all get in line
I'm just a minor threat so pay no mind
Do you really wanna to be like them?
Do you really wanna be another trend?
Do you wanna be part of that crowd?
'Cause I don't ever wanna
I don't ever wanna be, you
Don't wanna be just like you
What I'm saying is, this is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
You, don't wanna be you
Shake it once that's fine
Shake it twice that's okay
Shake it three times
Your playin' with your self again
(You, don't wanna be just like you)
What I'm saying is, this is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
Now you can feel me
Sing if you're with me
You, don't wanna be just like you
(Just like you)
This is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
Now you can feel me
Sing if you're with me
Another loser anthem
(Wahoo)
Another loser anthem
(Wahoo)
Another loser anthem
(Wahoo)
I visualize the first time we're together,
I close my eyes and for a moment all I see is you,
Turn off the lights,
Don't look outside,
The world's gone crazy,
But it's perfect here with you.
I've never felt so alive,
Like I feel right now in this moment,
I've never felt so alive,
Like I feel right here standing next to you,
I've never felt so alive.
I know what you're thinking,
You think that we're different,
And my reputation, and the stories,
Well at least you know it won't get boring,
I know the one's who came before me,
Just let go as I crash into you.
I've never felt so alive,
Like I feel right now in this moment,
I've never felt so alive,
Like I feel right here standing next to you,
Heaven's heard me calling,
The stars have all aligned,
Your touch is so electric,
And looking in your eyes,
I've never felt so alive.
It's surreal,
The way you feel,
How fast my heart is beating,
And we're breathing together now.
As we float out,
Above the clouds,
I swear I'll never let you down.
I've never felt so alive,
Like I feel right now in this moment,
I've never felt so alive,
Like I feel right here standing next to you,
Heaven's heard me calling,
The stars have all aligned,
Your touch is so electric,
And looking in your eyes,
I've never felt so alive.
I've never felt so alive.
I've never felt so alive.
Mother can we start over?
I wanna be the boy I was back then
Before the world came
And made me colder
I wanna feel the way I did back then
With love in my heart.
We live in a beautiful place
Let love take away all this pain
We live in a beautiful place (ohoh)
We wasted so many days
Our hearts are as dark as the rain
We live in a beautiful place (ohoh ohoh)
Father, can we start over?
Take me to the places that we lived
Before the days came and made us older
I wanna feel the way I did back then
Before my heart grew cold
We live in a beautiful place
Let love take away all this pain
We live in a beautiful place (ohoh)
We wasted so many days
Our hearts are as dark as the rain
We live in a beautiful place (ohoh)
Our hearts are as dark as the rain (ohoh)
Our hearts are as dark as the rain (ohoh)
Its a beautiful place if we make it
It's a beautiful place to be wasted, don’t you know.
We live in a beautiful place,
Let love take away all this pain,
We live in a beautiful place (ohoh)
We live in a beautiful place,
Let love take away all this pain,
We live in a beautiful place (ohoh ohoh)
We wasted so many days
Our hearts are as dark as the rain
Oh uh oh
Oh uh oh
Life was simple,
Roger was working round the clock to make a living,
No computers, none of that, he used his two hands,
Ignored the cold war,
His wife would keep him warm.
On the weekends,
He'd load the car up with the kids and they'd go fishing,
No need to work an extra job, there's no recession,
Damn right he smiled a lot,
They lay awake at night,
So in love.
It was a good, good year, (oh uh oh)
The kids were all right,
"Highway to Hell" beat up "Stayin' Alive", (oh uh oh)
The Clash was on the radio,
And mum and dad were still in love,
In 1979,
It was a good, good year.
In the morning,
Robin always woke up early in the kitchen,
She'd make the coffee, pack his lunch and then she'd kiss him,
And he would hold her tight,
When they were newlyweds.
He'd say maybe,
And she would laugh, they knew they'd have another baby,
She'd slave away all day until dinner was ready,
And they would dance so slow to "Just the Way You Are".
It was a good, good year, (oh uh oh)
The kids were all right,
"Highway to Hell" beat up "Stayin' Alive", (oh uh oh)
The Clash was on the radio,
And mum and dad were still in love,
In 1979,
It was a good, good year.
All the decades and the years have passed,
Not every family is built to last,
No time can take away these memories,
Remember when you said to me,
That we'd be all right.
Oh uh oh
The kids were all right,
"Highway to Hell" beat up "Stayin' Alive", (oh uh oh)
The Clash was on the radio,
And mum and dad were still in love,
In 1979,
It was a good, good year.
Oh uh oh
Disco couldn't survive,
With the Dream Police and Rock 'N Roll High,
Blondie powered 'Heart of Glass',
And Mum & Dad bought their first house,
In 1979,
It was a good, good year.
