Love will find you
Brackets are tall punctuation marks used in matched pairs within text, to set apart or interject other text. Used unqualified, brackets refer to different types of brackets in different parts of the world and in different contexts.
The chevron was the earliest type to appear in written English. Desiderius Erasmus coined the term lunula to refer to the rounded parentheses (), recalling the round shape of the moon.
In addition to referring to the class of all types of brackets, the unqualified word bracket is most commonly used to refer to a specific type of bracket. In modern American usage this is usually the square bracket.
In American usage, parentheses are usually considered separate from other brackets, and calling them "brackets" at all is unusual even though they serve a similar function. In more formal usage "parenthesis" may refer to the entire bracketed text, not just to the punctuation marks used (so all the text in this set of round brackets may be said to be a parenthesis or a parenthetical).
P-Square are a Nigerian R&B duo composed of identical twin brothers Peter and Paul Okoye.
The story of P-Square began in St. Murumba secondary school, a small Catholic school in Jos, Nigeria. Identical twins Peter and Paul joined their school music and drama club where they began singing, dancing, and miming songs by MC Hammer, Bobby Brown and Michael Jackson.
They later formed an a cappella quartet called "MMMPP" (M Clef a.k.a. Itemoh, Michael, Melvin, Peter and Paul). Drawing inspiration from their music idol Michael Jackson, they began break dancing, formed the group called "Smooth Criminals" in 1997. They droped M Clef from the group "MMMPP" which later was changed to "MMPP". Their artistic talent and precise dance routine soon made them household names in the city of Jos, where they performed at school functions and other occasions.
Later in 1999, Peter and Paul returned to music school to develop their skills on keyboard, drums, bass and rhythm guitar. Their work includes the soundtracks for a number of films like Tobi, Mama Sunday, Moment of Bitterness and Evas River.
The bags underneath my eyes
Catch all the tears I cry
Where were you when everything went wrong
You suck colors from my life
You took away my paradise
Don't come crawling back when I move on
Just tell me what you see
When you look down at me

I can't hear a word you say
When I pushed you away
I'll read your mind
My eyes pointed to the ground
Ears shutting out the sound
To save all I've done
I know that I'm wrong
I'd no sooner die than
Admit that you're right
I don't care what you think
Cause I'm driven to drink it away
I know that I'm wrong
Please don't ask why
I should put out the fire
Oh, I'd rather be dead than
Hear anything you said yesterday
I'm ridin' my high horse
In spite of his 4 broken legs
He's had too much to drink
And, now his memory's so vague
He's havin' trouble gettin'
Out of this starting gate
I'm stuck in my stubborn ways
Miserably livin' days
With my anger
With my selfish addiction
To drug-induced fiction
I am a stranger
Now that I know that I'm wrong
I'd no sooner die than admit that you're right
I won't care what you think
Cause I'm driven to drink it away
I know that I'm wrong
Please don't ask why
I should...
How can I love someone else
If I can't love myself
I'm just sharing the abuse
Distance made my heart grow week
Because it's you that I need
I'm just strong enough for two
I sit in solitude only thinking of you and me
And I realize you're the one
who brings the sun into my daze
It's easy to see now with my head in the clouds today
And I realize together
We'll drift off into old age
I'll just sit and think of nothing
'Cause nothing keeps me sane
How can I trust someone else
If I can't trust myself
I'll just keep away from the cold
There's an angel in disguise
Keeping me from the lies
I tell and the ones I'm told
I sit in solitude only thinking of you and me
And I realize you're the one
who brings the sun into my daze
It's easy to see now with my head in the clouds today
And I realize together
I sat there on a stool next to ?
By myself like any other day
When someone stood in front of me
He looked at me with his pale brown eyes
And started to talk with me
And laugh with me
And stand around me
He said he could not understand
Why I've been treated the way I always have
And, we became the best of friends
I waited all my life to meet someone who
Would talk with me
And laugh with me
And stand around me
I thought we would be friends
'Til the end of time
I thought we would be friends
'Til the end of time
Every time I saw his face
It took me to a better place
I've gone somewhere I've never been
The feeling of having a friend
Monday morning, I came back to school
Thinking that everything was fine
Then, I saw the empty desk
Then, I was told that I had lost
The only person who would talk to me
And laugh with me
And stand around me
I thought we would be friends
'Til the end of time
I thought we would be friends
'Til the end of time
Every time I saw his face
It took me to a better place
I've gone somewhere I've never been
I still hope that you can find
The happiness that once was mine
A worthless heart misses you once again
I believe that you will find
A radiance that is not mine
A pining heart misses you once again
The shimmer of our days
Slowly fading away
Inside I'm only half alive
Out of all my distractions
You still manage to be my favorite one
Trading your absence for mine
The unbelievers are unkind
The meaningless becomes available
I'm trying to get closer to the buzz that is
surrounding you
Everyone says it's so beautiful
I still hope that you can find
The happiness that once was mine
A worthless heart misses you once again
The shimmer of our days
Slowly fading away
Inside I'm only half alive
Out of all my distractions
You still manage to be my favorite one
Trading your absence for mine
The unbelievers are unkind
The meaningless becomes available
I'm trying to get closer to the buzz that is
surrounding you
Everyone says it's so beautiful
Trading your absence for mine
The unbelievers are unkind
The meaningless becomes available
I'm trying to get closer to the buzz that is
surrounding you
Everyone says it's so beautiful
So beautiful
So beautiful
I know from experience
I can see your resistance
Give me time to heal
Because I'm still torn up inside
Around you there is nothing I need to prove
I can just live vicariously through you
This is my attempt to look on the bright side
I embrace the distance I see in your eyes
We can go through life dying one by one
If I fall behind will I lead someone
To believe that I forgive everyone
When I dream at night
I don't see anyone
Except for you
In every word that you breathe
A lifetime of recovery
Under a scarlet sky
You unveiled my mysteries
Around you there is nothing I need to prove
I can just live vicariously through you
This is my attempt to look on the bright side
I embrace the distance I see in your eyes
We can go through life dying one by one
If I fall behind will I lead someone
To believe that I forgive everyone
When I dream at night
I don't see anyone
Restful Garden, take my sweat and plant it in the ground.
Restful Garden, take my life and turn it upside down
When it starts getting old
I'll stop doing what I'm told
When I start growing old
Secret Garden, take my secret, tell it to someone
Secret Garden, you're to blame for all the things I've done
Rain
Selfish Garden, take what you want like you always do
Selfish Garden, take some comfort knowing I need you
You are the other side of me
Dying from my selfish disease
I'd come undone to set you free
And give you back integrity
When I, can't find, peace of mind
You won't find me searching desperately
When I, can't find, lost time
I will make up for lost misery
I've been this way for far too long (for far too long)
A blues singer without a song (without a song)
I turn my rights into a wrong (rights into a wrong)
And now my life is far too gone (far too gone)
When I, can't find, peace of mind
You won't find me searching desperately
When I, can't find, lost time
I will make up for lost misery
My sadness is morbidly obese
And my tears will flow like poetry
When I pour my heart out
Over your head
And into your soul
Now I'm feeding off your sympathy
And I've given you a taste of me
Cry me a river
And send me to the sea
Away from everyone
You are the other side of me (other side of me)
Dying from my selfish disease (my selfish disease)
I'd come undone to set you free (to set you free)
And give you back integrity (back integrity)
When I, can't find, peace of mind
You won't find me searching desperately
When I, can't find, lost time
And I don't wanna go
And I don't want you to turn and run away
And I don't wanna die
And I don't want to have to live this way
The times that you have left me
Standing on my own
Without you I've got no one
I wish that you would just be
With me when I'm alone
Lord, please don't say that we are done
And I don't wanna know
And I don't want to find out where you have been
And I don't wanna lie
And I don't want you to go back to him
The times that you have left me
Standing on my own
Without you I've got no one
I wish that you would just be
With me when I'm alone
Lord, please don't say that we are done
Why don't you think about it
Let's give it a try
You said you never would quit
I don't know why
Yeah-ehee-yeah-eyeah. . .
And I don't wanna die
And I don't want to have to live this way
The times that you have left me
Standing on my own
Without you I've got no one
I wish that you would just be
With me when I'm alone
I had something else to say
But someone took it away
And I, have a fear of being trampled down
And being thrusted to the underground
I'm just a shoe gazer
And I, am just a daydreamer
There's not much for me to do
Except stare right down at you
And I, have a fear of being trampled down
And being thrusted to the underground
I'm just a shoe gazer
And I, am just a daydreamer
I don't have anything to say
But, I know I'm wise
I'm searching for all the answers on the floor
I don't hear all the words you say
When you criticize
I don't know what I should be listening for
And I, am just a shoe gazer
I think my shoe's untied
I'm just a daydreamer
My day turns into night
I'm just a shoe gazer
I think my shoe's untied
I'm just a daydreamer
I don't have anything to say
But, I know I'm wise
I am a voice
Inside your head
Telling you to let go
I fill a void
Inside your bed
I'm someone you'll never know
You know what keeps me by your side
The random acts of suicide
So I can come to save the day
I can't decide / which way to turn
I'm a son of a bitch / sometimes
I'll never learn
Somebody make up my mind
My heart will beat
You to the ground
As long as it beats alone
Scratch the surface
To hear the sound
Of somebody you'll never know
You know what keeps me by your side
The random acts of suicide
So I can come to save the day
I can't decide / which way to turn
I'm a son of a bitch / sometimes
I'll never learn
Somebody make up my mind
It feels so good to stand on someone that you love
I'll love you more when I feel like I've had enough
It feels so good to stand on someone that you love
I'll love you more when I feel like I've had enough
I can't decide / which way to turn
I'm a son of a bitch / sometimes
I'll never learn
Some say it's wrong
But I don't know when
I'm unaware of things I said then
Never watch my mouth
I wish I knew the things that I'm not supposed to say
Because it changes everyday
Don't wanna talk
I can't get my foot out
Look where you step
We've got a no brainer
Stuck it in a container
Took it out to litter
Realized it was a bitter pill no
Something to show
No trouble no bother
Sacrifice no cannon fodder
Ten minutes so painless
Didn't take us long to gain that number fifteen
All we needed
There must be a hundred ways
To get blood from a stone
That's if you can find a stone that bleeds
There must be a thousand things
That I could never own
A million more that I don't want or need
Just a piece of quiet
You may but I won't buy it
Is silence so golden
It's getting bitter cold inside my eardrum
I need to hear some
I'm just a no brainer
Could I be more insaner
Take me out to litter
A professional quitter on vacation
Same location
There must be a hundred ways
To get blood from a stone
That's if you can find a stone that bleeds
There must be a thousand things
That I could never own
A million more that I don't want or need
A million more that I don't want or need
Now all I need
Is some misunderstanding
It brings comfort on the days that I feel plain
My hate eclipses love
That I give to everyone
As they watch me force my life down the drain
Now I'm trying to find
A way to die inside
So I throw a couple colors in my hair
And I'll kick and scream at the world again
The world again
The world again
The world again
I'll starve my cold
And I'll feed my fever to you
My body is a temple with a piercing or two
Lost innocence
Keeps me closer to my friends
I've always had the mouth but never told the truth
Now I'm trying to find
A way to die inside
So I throw a couple colors in my hair
And I'll kick and scream at the world again
The world again
The world again
The world again
Now I'm trying to find
A way to die inside
Now I'm trying to find
A way to die inside
So I throw my middle finger in the air
And kick and scream at the world again
The world again
The world again
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Looking at you
Today, yesterday
I've been look-uh look-uh your face
Come on, you won't put me for shame
Your name, sounds so beautiful

Chorus:
Foreign language

Chorus:
Foreign language
Looking at you

Looking at you
Looking at you
Looking at you

Chorus:
Foreign language
I've been looking at you
Looking at you

Looking at you
Looking at you
Come on, let's do it
Looking at you
Looking at you
Your body
Looking at you
(Foreign language)
Looking at you
Looking at you
Every time I look inside myself I'm my only friend
I try to put my feelings on a shelf so that the pain will end
There's a crowd around me and I don't feel that I'm safe
I wish that I could disappear and leave without a trace
I try to hide behind a blanket of seclusion
I think that I could do without your intrusion
Sometimes I wish that everyone would go away
I can't think of anything else I can say
I can't figure out why I can't look you in your eyes
Maybe I don't want you to see right through all my lies
I lock up all my doors and hide in quarantine
I think that I am at my best when I'm not seen
I try to hide behind a blanket of seclusion
I think that I could do without your intrusion
Sometimes I wish that everyone would go away
I can't think of anything else I can say
I can't figure out why I can't look you in your eyes
Maybe I don't want you to see right through all my lies
I lock up all my doors and hide in quarantine
I think that I am at my best when I'm not seen
I try to hide behind a blanket of seclusion
I think that I could do without your intrusion
Sometimes I wish that everyone would go away
I can't think of anything else I can say
I keep on thinking that I've
seen it all before
I can't see through the shades
It's getting hard for you to know me anymore
I'm hiding from the days
And I want to keep all of my privacy
And keep it to myself
A circle of friends in my memory
I hope they're doing well
I saw sunshine yesterday
I looked to the sky
Then I ran back inside
I saw sunshine yesterday
It blinded my eyes
It made me realize
That I'm not missing anything
I'm drawing pictures of myself on the wall
They're not that flattering
I'm singing songs that I've never heard at all
And singing out of key
Please uncle, please show me
what I should do now
Please uncle, please show me
Show me the way out
I'm scraping all I can from the bottom of a jar
So I don't have to leave
I'm keeping shelter from a giant burning star
Daddy's girl is shopping for a perfect day
And her words are full of empty things to say
Her shit stained smile
Is out of style
It's been that way
For quite a while
Everyone is telling me I'll never win,
If I fall in love with a girl from Marin
Daddy's girl has overflowing confidence
And her world is filling up with hollow friends
Her shit stained smile
Is out of style
It's been that way
For quite a while
Everyone is telling me I'll never win,
If I fall in love with a girl from Marin
Daddy's girl is growing colder every day
And our worlds are never gonna be the same
Her shit stained smile
Is out of style
It's been that way
For quite a while
Everyone is telling me I'll never win,
If I fall in love with a girl from Marin
Everyone is telling me I'll never win,
It's starting to get hot outside
I think my feet are gonna fry
I have to go
But I sit down in the weeds
It takes a lot to get me in
I need to stop for my cool aide now
I want my friends to leave anyhow, mix a batch
Just a little bit more will get me through the day
The daylight's going away. . .
All my friends drink from a can
They don't know the cool aide man
I have to go
But I'll sit down in the weeds
It takes a lot to get me in
I need to stop for my cool aide now
I want my friends to leave anyhow, mix a batch
Just a little bit more will get me through the day
The daylight's going away. . .
Cherry-flavored, berry-flavored, tropical punch over ice
I want my cherry-flavored, tropical punch over ice
It's got no pulp it's got no seeds
My mom likes the added c
I need to stop for my cool aide now
I want my friends to leave anyhow
I need to stop for my cool aide now
I want my friends to leave anyhow, mix a batch
Just a little bit more will get me through the day
I'm tired of hearing
In fact I seem to drown everything out
The sounds are disappearing today
I can't speak, I can't hear, I can't make it crystal clear
I want to know what everyone has to say
Communication gets harder everyday
I want to know what everyone thinks of me
But it's so hard when they speak so softly
Nothing seems to sink in
Everything comes right out the same
No one knows what I'm thinking today
I can't speak, I can't hear, I can't make it crystal clear
I want to know what everyone has to say
Communication gets harder everyday
I want to know what everyone thinks of me
But it's so hard when they speak so softly
I want to know what everyone has to say
Communication gets harder everyday
I want to know what everyone thinks of me
But it's so hard when they speak so softly
If you try to talk I won't understand
Nothing seems to make sense to me
If I try to speak you won't understand
I can't explain things that I've seen
But if you try to see inside
I won't mind
Everything's so peaceful
I don't want it any other way
No one knows why I'm cheerful today
I can't speak, I can't hear, I can't make it crystal clear
I want to know what everyone has to say
Communication gets harder everyday
I want to know what everyone thinks of me
Can't make me pay attention, or tell the truth
Can't make me do what you want, or brush my tooth
Can't make me get there on time, or comb my hair
Can't make me take a shower, or even care
(Right eye?)
Do you know why I won't try
It's to make you wonder why
Won't do anything that you said
Won't do anything that you want
Won't do anything that you thought
Won't do anything until you're dead
Can't make me cut my toenails, or tune guitars
Can't make me pay the phone bill, or wash my car
Can't make me take my clothes off, or take a shit
Can't make me like Clapton, or Jimi Hendrix
(Right eye?)
Do you know why I won't try
It's to make you wonder why
Won't do anything that you said
Won't do anything that you want
Won't do anything that you thought
Won't do anything until you're dead
I was on my way
When I heard you say
Couldn't wait until the day that I was gone
I won't be nice, so don't ask me twice
I don't know where you went wrong
Can't make me not get pregnant, or have a drink
Can't make me work at weekends, or snake the sink
Can't make me understand you, or ride the bus
Can't make me watch a ball game, or eat the crust
(Right Eye?)
Do you know why I won't try
It's to make you wonder why
Won't do anything that you said
Won't do anything that you want
Won't do anything that you thought
Sing a happy song for me
Sing a happy song for me
I didn't mean to cause you pain
I didn't mean to leave a stain
I didn't mean to say that I loved you
I never thought that I would crash
I never thought I'd turn to ash
I never thought that I would love you
Sing a happy song for me
Sing a happy song for me
I didn't mean to steal your time
I didn't mean to make you shine
I didn't mean to say that I loved you
I don't mean to be so mean
I don't mean to come so clean
But now I'm everything without you
Here's another song for you
It might not be my best tune
But all the words I say ring true
I'm everything without you
I'm everything without you
I'm everything without you
I'm everything without you
Jenny, Jenny, who can I turn to
Give me something I can hold on to
I know you think I'm like the others before
I saw your name and number on the wall
Jenny I got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny don't change your number
867-5309
Jenny, Jenny, you're the girl for me
You don't know me but you make me so happy
I tried to call you before I lost my nerve
I tried my imagination but I was disturbed
Jenny I got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny don't change your number
867-5309
I got it
I got your number on the wall
I got it
I don't see why I should have to pay more
When I walk in to a convenience store
I don't care how bad they taste
I won't let them go to waste
Two hot dogs for 99 cents
I'm always looking for the better deal
The camera's watching to see what I steal
I don't care how bad they taste
I won't let them go to waste
Two hot dogs for 99 cents
I look up at the sign
It says two for 99
I see there's only one left
I need to talk to the chef
I use condiments because they are free
They seem to be all set up just for me
I don't care how bad they taste
I won't let them go to waste
If I start to disappear
Will it matter to someone?
Will it matter if I use your gun?
Why does everyone hate me?
Tell me what I've ever done
Show me somewhere else I could run
Will anyone notice
Will anyone notice me now
I hope that when you find me now
I will have no life in me
Maybe that's the only way you'll see
I hope that when you find me now
You will finally believe
Shadow puppets on the wall
Comfort to me when I call
Everyone thinks I'm insane
My shadow puppets think the same
But, they are my friends
And they don't follow senseless trends
And they have a mind of their own
They all give me company
They ?
Shadow puppets on my wall
Comfort to me when I call
People think that I'm insane
My shadow puppets are to blame
But, I'm startin' to find
That they gain control of my mind
So they can remind everyone
They always seem to understand
What I'm doing with my hands
They ?
I like how girls stick around(?)
Shadow puppets on my wall
Comfort to me when I call
Everyone thinks I'm insane
My shadow puppets play the game
But, they're dying to be/pee(?)
And, if they want, I'll set them free
So, they can have a life of their own
Every girl ? ways
I'll be lonely for the rest of my days
Serena Hides behind a face
That isn't really hers
She always tries a different way
To put time in reverse
I wonder what it is that she's hiding from
She's passed on all her friends
When will her crying end?
Her family wonders where she is.
Is she happy feelin' lonely now?
Serena Hides behind a mask
That she paints on herself.
The painted smile will never last
For undeserved will(?)
I wonder what it is that she's hiding from
She puts a shell around her.
And colors her lies.
And then she'll start to wonder
About the disguise.
Will she ever find a way
To find a way out?
I wonder
I think I know you
I think I know you all too well
A conversationalist I'm not but I'll try
I've got laryngitis but I think I'll get by
I am the schmooze king
And I'll say anything you wanna hear
I am the schmooze king
If you listen close you'll find
All the crazy things that were left behind
When I look around they're living in the past
What the hell is in their mind
They have to feel out of place
They think vogue is a disgrace
It's not for real
Days gone by are still in style
Maybe next year it happens all the while
You won't see it long 'cause it will never last
A modern-day flower child
They have to feel out of place
They think vogue is a disgrace
It's not for real

There is always some black cloud hanging over my head
Always feeling like I should not get out of my bed
Doubtful thoughts fill my head up, decisions I have made
Wondering if I should choose to go the other way
I set myself up for the worst so I don't have to be let down
Don't call me cynical because that is the way I always sound
Anyday, go away
There is always some black cloud hanging over my head
Always feeling like I should not get out of my bed
Doubtful thoughts fill my head up, decisions I have made
Wondering if I should choose to go the other way
I set myself up for the worst so I don't have to be let down
Don't call me cynical because that is the way I always sound
Anyday, go away
I set myself up for the worst so I don't have to be let down
You hang your clouds up over me
You show your love sarcastically
You're always so happy
Whenever we disagree
Why are you trying to rain on my parade?
You stretch the truth until it breaks
You watch my smile disintegrate
You're always so happy
Whenever we disagree
Why are you trying to rain on my parade?
Why are you trying to rain on my parade?
Everyone's laughing
I never can tell why
Maybe I should laugh along
My head says live for yesterday
My heart says let it drift away
You're always so happy
Whenever we disagree
Why are you trying to rain on my parade?
Why are you trying to rain on my parade?
My inside's turning outside
My upside has no downside
My bright side has no dark side
Trace my silver lining
Erase my silver lining
My black cloud turns to sunshine
My disease makes me feel fine
I don't mind standing in time
Smile with me
Paint my silver lining
Save my silver lining
Distance you far away from me
Your daylight's not my cup of tea
I can't pretend that I have time to spend
My medication takes the pain away
I'm sleeping through one more hangover day
Inside my clouded memory
I'm underneath my apple tree
Give me an antidote for my heart
So everyone can have their share
Everyone can share
Sitting underneath the apple tree
I'm wiping all the dirt right off my knees
But, I don't mind
Mr. deer is looking down at me
He says I've lost all of my dignity
But, I knew that long before he did
Spent a long time breathing dust inside of me
Mr. deer is becoming my enemy
In a way, this has become my second home
Not everyone has a tree of their own
I'm sitting underneath the apple tree
The sun is draining all my energy
But, I don't care
I've been sittin' down for 13 years
Father told me I need to change gears
But, I can't seem to get motivated
I spent a long time breathing dust inside of me
I'm sitting underneath the apple tree
I'm painting pictures in my memory
But, I've lost my brush
Sitting underneath the apple tree
The sun is draining all my energy
And, I can't seem to get motivated
My stepson has a gun
He shows me who's number one
He's aware of my welfare
He tells me he doesn't care
He never listened to me
He turned his mom against me
I think he needs therapy
He was young, he was small
I showed him I knew it all
It hurt him more than it hurt me
He lives in a penitentiary
Sometimes I think I want to run
Back to the place that I came from
And I am trying to think
Why am I the missing link?
And I am trying to think. . .
You know you never like to look
When I eat the food that you cook
And I am trying to think
Why am I the missing link?
And I am trying to think. . .
I've lost the human race
I came in last place
I fell right on my face
And I am trying to think
Why am I the missing link?
And I am trying to think. . .
I don't want to go back where I was before
Someone forgot to lock up my padded door
I don't want to go back where I was before
Someone forgot to lock up my padded door
I've been feeling like I can't make up my mind
The whole world kept turning; I was left behind
Sometimes I think I want to run
Back to the place that I came from
And I am trying to think
Why am I the missing link?
If I had to start again
Where would I begin
Would I even want to try
I never like to look back
Because it throws me off track
And then I try to run and hide
When will I wake in my own bed
Nobody knows I have a name
Don't really care if I am dead
My mother is the one to blame
Walk a mile in my shoes
If you think you can't loose
And nothing to write home about
You know that I am not alone
I never had a real home
Hang out backstage to be seen
30 years old and a teen
Everyone wants to talk to me, they all give the look
I can get any chick I want 'cause I really cook
I make the scene, I'm where it's at
I'm happy to be sad
I'm sad because I'm happy
And I'll throw my cares away
I'm happy to be sad
I'm sad because I'm happy
And I'll throw my cares away
I love to see the clouds ruin a sunny day
I love to see the clouds ruin a sunny day
I'm happy to be sad
I'm sad because I'm happy
And I'll throw my cares away
I really don't like the taste
I really don't like the taste
Of all those green apples
They don't seem to go away
I am tired of seeing
All of those green apples
I run into everyday
They are the cause of my troubles and pain
They are the reason for the wind and rain
I wish they all were dead
So I heard that you fell down
Must be hard to get around
But what I'd like
Is for you to get it rite
Is for you to get it rite
Always make things look so hard
But you know you won't get far
But what I'd like
Is for you to get it rite
Is for you to get it rite
Rite. . .
You don't know me
Why can't you see?
I wanna stay. . .
Watch where you go
Don't move too slow
Don't fade away. . .
So I heard that you fell down
Must be hard to get around
But what I'd like

Rite. . .
You don't know me

Watch where you go
Don't move too slow

I look out my window up into the sky
And I wonder where it all comes from
It seems so harmless to me, but I can't help wondering
How it affects someone
I won't mind if it goes away
It will come another day
It's no fun without the sun
I wonder why...
I see the disasters on my television
And sympathize for all the pain
I never thought so many lives could be ruined
It's hard for me to read your mind
I'm too afraid of what I'll find
All my certainty starts to sail away
The only thing that I know is that I don't really care
All I want is some fresh air
I'm tired of the games I play
I think that it's April fool's day
All my sanity starts to sail away
The only thing that I know is that I don't really care
All I want is some fresh air
It works everytime
It works everytime
All my certainty starts to sail away
The only thing that I know is that I don't really care
I don't want anything from the flea market
Please don't pressure me
I don't want to buy anything that is in front of me
Why do you try to pawn on me your worst disease
I have no need for sunburnt tapes of Spanish songs
I cannot wear a pair of used brand new thongs
I'm waiting for the chance I can go home
I hope you don't know my name
It just wouldn't be the same
I'm confused about all the things I do
Cause nothing that I say is true
And if I tell a lie
please be my alibi
I wanna make beleive it's real
That's just the way I feel
There's nothing left to fabricate
Did I mention that Elvis is alive?
I hide my identity
Truth is my worst enemy
I just can't help fooling myself
Im looking out my bedroom Window
im looking for my daddy to come home
hes been gone for so long i know my mommy still loves him so
mommy and dad they get in a fight
the next thing i hear the slamming of the door
My daddys gone
Im all Alone
i cry myself to sleep
[Chorus]
Daddy dont you know
that i miss you cause you gone
why dont you come back home
please come home
mommy still loves you, but i love you even more
oh please daddy please come home
we went out to hunt someday
we went out to fish the next day
all my dreams had come true
my daddys back and we are one again
i woke up to find he's gone
tears started running down my face
I was Only Dreaming
My Daddy's Gone
Daddy Where Are You?
[Chorus]2x
oh please daddy please come home
Sie war ein Kind der Sterne
sie war voller Charme
lachte auf meinen Knien
weinte in meinem Arm.
Sie rief laut meinen Namen
zog mir an den Haaren
ihre Blicke waren albern
ihre Blicke waren warm.
Sie war ein Kind der Sterne
geradeaus und frei
und die Welt auf ihren Schultern war kinderleicht.
Jetzt kennt sie keine Richtung und hat schon genug
und spielt mit ihrem Fahrschein f

wooo wooo hooo
Breaking down the fences - breaking down the rules
The reason for my heartbeat - the mysteries of fool
I talk to my dream I hear a voice, it was calling
And I couldn't stop to steam
Cause my wild horse was falling (It's a wish)
Give me freedom in my dreams (What a wish)
Give me shelter, yes it seems (Yes it seems)
Bleeding heartaches ever cry
I wanna rock you baby 'till I die
It's a magic symphony
Baby, when you're lying next to me
I hear violins, You know what it means just for tonight
I hear a symphony of love I see the stars - the moon above
I hear your heart - I feel your touch deep down inside
Breaking down the fences - breaking down the rules
The reason for my heartbeat - the mysteries of fool
I talk in my sleep
There was a mystical devotion
I hear the rhythm, heard the beat
Unknown soldiers in emotion (It's a dream)
Give me freedom in my dreams (What a wish)
Give me shelter - yes it seems (Yes it seems)
Bleeding heartaches ever cry I wanna rock you baby 'till I die
I can't complain
I always try
I know no other way
I go against the grain
And eat some pie
I don't feel well today
I don't feel need to compromise
It's something I despise
I think that I should never try
Eating pie
I'll change my mind three times a day
It all happens against my will
What must go down must always come up
So I can search for my diet pill
Everything I do is so overdone
It has to be that way
I want it all or else I want it none
There are no shades of gray
If I'm crying out to everyone
I sit in the boring hot sun
Riding on top of my big John Deere
With all of the noise from the engine
It's no wonder that I can't hear
There is one thing that I know is true
There isn't anything else I can do
I don't wanna drive
The sun beats down on my head
It's starting to make all my skin bake
With all of this bouncing around
It's no wonder that my bones ache
There is one thing that I know is true
There isn't anything else I can do
I don't wanna drive
I don't wanna chew tobacco
I don't wanna wear your boots
I don't wanna drive your tractor, no. . .
I look to see the sun go down
A smile stretches across my red face
I'm so happy the day is over
Now I can wake up from my daze
I'll fill you in on my philosophy
Can't wait to tell you about life's tragedies
And the coffee bean will burn inside of me
We can take a walk to the coffee shop and bitch about life for a while
Read me a book, enlighten me to death
Show me your espresso dreams when you're depressed
It's OK. I'm awake. And it seems like I've been that way for a week
I'm all right. Say good night. If you wake me up I'll never go to sleep
Twenty-six years old, I'm feeling sixty-five
Why should I care?
Why should I try?
Why should I stare?
Why should I cry?
Why should I stay?
Why should I know?
Why should I play?
Give me one reason why eye should stay
I've got a better game I could play
Seems no one else wants to take that walk
So why should eye?
Why should I walk?
Why should I leave?
Why should I talk?
Why should I grieve?
Why should I stay?
Why should I know?
Why should I play?
Give me one reason why eye should stay
I've got a better game I could play
Seems no one else wants to take that walk
The whole world is watching me
As I light up the TV screen
My life's a parade
But I've got it made
I hope everyone will see
I want my ratings to go up
I hope you all wish me luck
I'll act like I care
About your welfare
And I'll pretend I'll stay in touch
I want to be on your good side
I've got nowhere else to hide
Everything that you hear
May not be sincere
At least my voice is amplified
I think my credibility has gone away
The colors on your television will turn gray
I'll make a living while i exploit everyone
I never thought this way of life would be so fun
Please come onto my talk show
Why does it seem so obscene
When everyone sees her walking around with me
See the love in our eyes
When we sing our songs about love and peace
Yoko ono ono
Yoko Yoko ono ono
Oh-no
Yoko ono ono
Yoko Yoko ono ono
Where I go, she will go
When we stop I'm sure that the world will know
See the love in our eyes
When we sing our songs about growing old
Yoko ono ono
Yoko Yoko ono ono
Oh-no
Yoko ono ono
Yoko Yoko ono ono
Oh-no - oh-no - oh-no - oh-no
We can sit in your shade maybe
We can stand in my sun and then
I'll feel so high
As long as it's you standing by my side
Where I go, she will go
When we stop I'm sure that the world will know
See the love in our eyes
When we sing our songs about growing old
Yoko ono ono
Yoko Yoko ono ono
Oh-no
Yoko ono ono
Yoko Yoko ono ono
Oh-no - oh-no - oh-no - oh-no
I throw you down
But there's no pain
I kick your head
And act insane
If I do anything to you
Enjoy the illusion
Cause it won't hurt at all
I slap your face
Without contact
I wanna hear
The crowd react
This confrontation is not exactly what it seems
You - distant and free
Me - feeling lonely
When will I realize?
That you're not satisfied
For now we'll say goodbye
I'll have to get over it now
You - heavy handed
Me - empty handed
When will I realize?
That you're not satisfied
For now we'll say goodbye
I'll have to get over it now
I'll have to get over it now
I need your condescending love
It seems to keep me in my place
But your arrogance is bliss and your bitterness is grace
Keep me in your afterthoughts
It's not who you are
It's who I'm not
I want to be your nobody
I couldn't wish for any more
Than the life you've forced on me
And without all the pain inside
Think how empty I would be
Keep me in your afterthoughts
It's not who you are
It's who I'm not
I tried to give you the end of my world
You wanted everything
I'm reinventing excuses disguised as my apology
This is just a tiny waste of life
All my memories will turn to lies
You occupy my regrets
The past will never forget
How can I be happy
When I'm still irritated
I have a waited a lifetime
To hear your words of empathy
If I am a disease
I know that you are just a remedy
This is just a tiny waste of life
All my memories will turn to lies
You occupy my regrets
The past will never forget
How can I be happy
When I'm still irritated
How am I
How am I
How am I supposed to know
Who am I
Who am I
Who am I to let you go
This is just a tiny waste of life
All my memories will turn to lies
You occupy my regrets
The past will never forget
How can I be happy
I'm spending every night
Fucking up days
Telling all the lies used yesterday
I'd rather be sad and miserable
Than be by myself
Now forever is so near
Love is only true
Letting go of fear time captures you
You'd rather be sad and miserable than be by yourself
I've turned my back on the light
And turned on to you
I've turned my back on myself
And turned on to you
I've turned my back on happiness
And turned on to you
Age filling up with years
Unforgiving
A sullen day is near
For the living
I'd rather be sad and miserable
Than be by myself
Now forever is so near
Love is only true
Letting go of fear
Time captures you
We'd rather be sad and miserable
Than be by ourselves
I've turned my back on the light
And turned on to you
I've turned my back on myself
And turned on to you
I've turned my back on happiness
And turned on to you
I break my promises to everyone
I am a problem and solution
Everybody wants to be someone
I can see
I can hear
But will I ever feel anything
I've turned my back on the light
And turned on to you
I've turned my back on myself
And turned on to you
I've turned my back on happiness
I don't want you to know that I'm alone
Rather be at school well, then at home
If I had a friend I would have known
This is something that you don't understand
What it's like to be under someone's hand
I never like the boy inside the man
I can't forget the memories
Of how things used to be
Now stop and take a look at me
I can't go
I can't let go and forget
I can't let go
I want you all to know that I'm alive
Couldn't make me quit or take a dive
All I need is just another life
I can't forget the memories
Of how things used to be
Now stop and take a look at me
I can't go
I can't let go and forget
I can't let go
I can't forget the memories
Of how things used to be
Now stop and take a look at me
I can't go
I can't let go and forget
You want to leave this place
They're always in your face
Please hitch a ride with me
Who says we cannot fly
Give it one more try
Let's see what we can see
Get in my huge balloon
Sunny weather
Get in my huge balloon
Sunny weather
We can start again brand new
All your dreams can come true
Stay happy all the time
Stop pretending that you're dead
Climb in like I said
Your only wish is mine
Get in my huge balloon
Sunny weather
Get in my huge balloon
Sunny weather
All our troubles far behind
In a place no one will find
Me and you every night
Let everything be all right
Get in my huge balloon
Sunny weather
Get in my huge balloon
Sunny weather
Get in my huge balloon
Warren says don't spread lies
The children outside think that they know the truth, it's not right
He don't have alibis
The stories they've told have stripped him from his youth, he asks why
No one cares how I feel anymore
I'm wondering what I'm living for
Warren says he doesn't care
But when the sun hits his face you can see the sadness in his eyes
No one said life is fair
When all the rumors circulate of incest, it's all lies
And when he breaks down and starts to cry
They all laugh at him
He wants to crawl away and die
There's nowhere to go
He wants to kill someone
But he knows it's not right
His life is so pathetic
He's not to blame
They all spit on him and try to get him to fight
He tries to call out for help
But no one came
Help me!
Warren says he doesn't care
But when the sun hits his face you can see the sadness in his eyes
No one said life is fair
I never enjoy the simple things in my life
I couldn't ignore the pain you bring
If I tried
It's not easy telling lies everyday
You're not fooled by this disguise anyway
I can't drag myself away from here or from you
All I can be is insincere and untrue
It's not easy telling lies everyday
You're not fooled by this disguise anyway
Sun fades into the night
Escaping life I follow you
Love is avoidable
If only I can follow through
Don't mind me
I'll be ok
I'm just tired of pretending
One moment of every day
She has a smile capable of saving me
And I can share all of my love and misery
I have a reason to survive
She hears my broken words
Confess my phobias to her
And her love is unwavering
Now unhappiness will have to wait
She's smiling at me
I'm falling in love now
She's singing my songs
I'm falling in love now
She's running away
I'm so in love now
She is a masterpiece of God sent to me
And I will dry every tear she cries for me
I have a reason to survive
She hears my broken words
Confess my phobias to her
And her love is unwavering
Now unhappiness will have to wait
She's smiling at me
I'm falling in love now
(Smiling at me)
She's singing my songs
I'm falling in love now
(Singing my songs)
She's running away
I'm so in love now
(She's running)
I'll take every second chance that she gives to me
But for now unhappiness will have to wait
She's smiling at me
I'm falling in love now
(Smiling at me)
She's singing my songs
I'm falling in love now
(Singing my songs)
She's running away
I'm so in love now
When I'm all by myself
I need someone to talk to me
Someone who makes me feel like I'm
Not coming to the end
I spend all my time alone
Until I can't take no more
Won't you please help me find
My imaginary. . .
I've never been so lonely
I don't know why
No one has ever shown me
I don't know why
I can't seem to find a way
But I know I've got to try
To make up for lost time
And change the I think
If I had a second chance
I'd try to do it all again
So it makes me wonder why
I am the missing. . .
I've never been so lonely
I don't know why
No one has ever told me
I can't expect to leave a life I've always lived
I can't expect to leave a life I've always lived
A father who likes drinking
And a mother who doesn't care
When everyone makes fun of how poor my family is
They laugh at my misfortune, and at the clothes that I wear
I can't ever leave my trailer park
I always feel out out of place
When I'm away from home
I don't want to go away
To somewhere I don't know
I should not go far away
I am not feeling well
When will it all subside
If I don't get my way
I will commit suicide
How much further do I have to go
I'm not safe, I'm not sound
When I don't know where I'm at
I can't sleep, I can't eat
Helium balloons
Fill an empty room
Now I guess that I'll
Save all of my birthday cake
For another rainy day
I'll save all this birthday cake
For a new rainy day
Bleak invitation
Sent to my loved ones
Now I guess that I'll
Save all of my birthday cake
For another rainy day
I'll save all this birthday cake
My yesterday was another lifeless day
And I write the saddest poetry when I think of you
I'm not here I'm not there
But I see you everywhere
With your every word
Laced with beauty
When you speak the truth
Now I know love is complicated
Everyone is faded
Words are calculated
Your soul is persuaded
You're self medicated
You're all I have left to lose
And now you decorate
Every thought I have today
And a glimpse of your obscurity
Takes you far from me
All of my sleepless nights
My elusive sacrifice
I can dedicate my wounds to you
A promise to succeed
Now I know love is complicated
Everyone is faded
Words are calculated
Your soul is persuaded
You're self medicated
You're all I have left to lose
There is nothing you can say
To help me forget you
I'm promising that I will
Fall apart when I see you
My yesterday was another lifeless day
And I write the saddest poetry when you're far away
from me
All of my sleepless nights
My elusive sacrifice
I can dedicate my wounds to you
A promise to succeed
Now I know love is complicated
Everyone is faded
Words are calculated
Your soul is persuaded
You're self medicated
Next to the sidewalk
I have been layed up there for days
And if I could walk
I would walk away
Does someone miss me?
Does someone wonder where I've gone?
Are they unhappy?
They won't see me again
My bones are broken
But I need to get up and go
My insides showing
They don't need to show
This situation seems to have put me in a hole
I need attention
They won't see me again
I don't think I'll be going home today
I'm not that healthy
I don't imagine I look well
I'm getting messy
Everyone can tell
I've been invaded
There's something picking at my skin
I am degrading
They won't see me again
I'm so ashamed now
I'm well behaved now
I think I'm tame now
I've lost the game now
I'm rearranged now
I feel estranged now
I need a change now
The melodies are out of touch
With how I want to feel inside
The harmonies are not enough
To take me to the brighter side
It's so tragic
That I'm so spastic
I love everything about night
But I can't stand the days
The sun melts calmness away
My clarity is all fogged up
I'm never gonna see again
Your charity that I've used up
Is needed every now and then
It's so tragic
That I'm so spastic
I love everything about night
But I can't stand the days
The sun melts calmness away
It's so tragic
That I'm so spastic
I love everything about night
But I can't stand the days
The sun melts calmness away
It's so tragic
That I'm so spastic
I love everything about night
But I can't stand the days
Keep me sanitized. Leave me sterilized
Give me all the blame, so I can be ashamed
I don't know how. Just cleanse me now
Leave a sour taste in my mouth
Cut me down to size. Tell me a white lie
I just want to land in the palm of your hand
Crying, fighting, trying to be sweet
Cut me down to size. Tell me a white lie
Why don't you give it to his face
No one cares where you have been
Shove my hand and turn away
I hope I won't see you again
I forget your name
You don't look the same
I'm so glad you came
I got nothing to say
Won't you please go away
It keeps draggin on and on
It's that same old ugly song
I just can't stand small talk
Not at all you're in my face here one more time
I try to keep on rid of you
The conversation isn't fine
And nothing that you say is true
I live in fear of meeting someone new I might see again
I had a dream last night
Woke up and I was still asleep
I felt the bed bugs bite
You thought that I was counting sheep
But I was wide awake, was wide awake all night
Was wide awake, was wide awake, was wide awake all night
Can't sleep with the door closed
No, I'm not scared of the Boogie Man
Just a dream I suppose
You thought that I was counting sheep
But I was wide awake, was wide awake all night
Was wide awake, was wide awake, was wide awake all night
If I happen to wake up
I won't go there again
I will never close my eyes
This time I've had enough
Hoping this is the end
I still like lullabuyz
I always did fall down
But never hit the ground
I wake up just in time
I try to run away I'm waiting for the day
That I can ease my mind
I try to raise my voice
But I can't make a choice
I just can't make a sound
Sat up in a cold sweat
My sheets are soaking wet
I think I'm gonna drown
But I'm awake, but I'm awake, awake all night
If I happen to wake up
I won't go there again
I won't ever close my eyes
This time I've had enough
Hoping this is the end
I still like lullabuyz
I always did fall down
But never hit the ground
I wake up just in time
I try to run away
I'm waiting for the day
That I can ease my mind
But I'm awake, but I'm awake, awake all night
If I'm gonna try
I'll try not to be so obvious
With everything I buy
I never seem to have enough
If I get to high
I hope that you will be there
To tell me to come down
Stylin'
I'm going for a ride
Just so someone can see me
My superficial pride
It's OK, if you don't see things the same way that I do
It's OK, if I follow you when you don't want me to
Whoa, whoa, it's all right
It's just fine when you say all the things I don't want to hear
It's just fine when I do the things I do to get you near
Whoa, whoa, it's all right
And when try to get away
I'll be there for you anyway
Don't try to turn your back on me
And when you sense that I'm not far
It doesn't matter where you are
Don't try to turn your back on me, hey. . .
But I don't care
If you don't want to remember what has passed
I don't care
If I keep in mind when I have seen you last
The day I died, it was the best day of my life
And when you cried, it made me feel so good inside
I will leave my insecurities to the ones who always doubted me
I just spent my last day, Sunday
Last Sunday
I'm satisfied, I knew that I could not survive
And when you cried, I felt it on the other side
Sing my praises now that I'm away
I see myself with nothing to do
Nothing to show for the last year or two
I don't have much left that I can prove
I try not to dwell on past mistakes
I try not to believe my life's been a waste
But it comes to haunt me everyday
Envy fills my mind
Envy takes up all of my precious time
It leaves me with nothing else
I've lost my pride
Jealousy has become part of my life
And everyone else can tell
Suffering regrets of things that I have done
I don't feel content with second to me
Whoah-Whoah-Whoah-Whoah
You know it's always on my mind
The best is always hard to find
OWhoahOhOohOohOhOohOhOohOh
You know it's always on my mind
I only like my favorite kind
OWhoahOhOohOohOhOohOhOohOh
I just want to forget
Where my afternoon went
But I have to remember today
All I want and all I need
Is just another pound of weed
So I can go inside and play
You know it's always on my mind
If I stop I will go blind
OWhoahOhOohOohOhOohOhOohOh
You know it's always on my mind
It gets me through the daily grind
OWhoahOhOohOohOhOohOhOohOh
I just want to forget
Where my afternoon went
But I have to remember today
All I want and all I need
Is just another pound of weed
So I can go inside and play
Whoah-Whoah-Whoah-Whoah
You know it's always on my mind
Can't you see it in my eyes
OWhoahOhOohOohOhOohOhOohOh
You know it's always on my mind
I'm running low on my supplies
OWhoahOhOohOohOhOohOhOohOh
I just want to forget
Where my afternoon went
But I have to remember today
All I want and all I need
Is just another pound of weed
So I can go inside and play
Won't you please tell me I'm looking for my imaginary friend
But I can't remember where I last saw him
I don't want to loose him why don't you understand
And I need to hear whichever ???
You say I'm acting strange
I don't know why
And if I've been that way
I don't try
I know you don't believe me
But I don't want to lie
And if you see him, please, don't scare him away
If I had another chance to see my imaginary friend
'Cause my memories of him begin to dim
Don't mind if he tells me everything I should do
I'm laughing at another day
I'm going through another phase
Will I take back the words I said
Will I take back what's in your head
Will I take back all your confidence
And I won't mind that I am here
I won't mind the ringing in my ears for now
Will you take a guilt trip with me
I've got some sights for you to see
I won't mind that I am here
I won't mind the ringing in my ears
I won't mind another cloudy day
I won't mind if I show signs of age
I've taken what was free and saved it all for me
Lost in sobriety
I try to throw it all away
I can't seem to breathe my morning breath
Terrified of playing dead
The sunset watches me instead
Too tired, to retire. Too tired, to retire
Don't keep me in suspense by laying motionless
Just treat me like the rest
Please don't answer my questions now
I don't want to know
Please don't question my answers now
I wish I could go off far away
Where time moves too slow
Day after day
I'll wait, and I'll sit and watch the clouds as they pass by
I'll wait, and I'll sit and watch the clouds as they walk by
I have a fixation with laziness
Procrastination, is what I do best
I'll wait, and I'll sit and watch the clouds as they go by
I'll wait, and I'll sit and watch the clouds as they walk by
Where has my ambition gone
I haven't seen it for so long
Am I a burden to someone
Life, I am so tired of everything
All my desire is vanishing
I'll wait, and I'll sit and watch the clouds as they go by
I'll wait, and I'll sit and watch the clouds as they walk by
I'll wait, and I'll sit and watch the clouds as they pass by
Hearsay, there say. Conversation is wearing through
Crying too loud my temper's turning black and blue
I will digest your flattery, then starve to death
I should ingest recovery and silence
I have my say, I want my way, I must be seen
And will you please stop calling me the Drama Queen
Breathing image, I'm out of breath from walking proud
Your compliment is taken well and taken loud
My misery worn on my sleeve, fashion statement
You can't believe I can't relieve my resentment
What did I say
I will digest your flattery, then starve to death
Poison apple sits on her desk
I'm hanging on every word she says
Don't tell miss Fenley I've been bad
Don't tell miss Fenley I've been bad
Her head falls down onto her desk
She's hanging on to her last breath
Next time she'll find. Next time she'll mind.
And when I feel a little sting
Why do you throw that ball at me
And then my ears they start to ring
I got a rock stuck in my knee
And I don't know what way to run
I just can't get away
I don't know which way to run
I don't know where
I don't want to play dodge ball
I try to hide behind someone
They got hit and now they're gone
To me this game just don't seem fun
I hate this black top that I'm on
And I don't know what way to run
I just can't get away
I don't know which way to run
(I don't know where)
I don't want to play dodge ball
I jump as I can in the air
I feel that the red ball whizzing by my head
I know I'm gonna get hit in the end
I wish I would have stayed home sick in bed
Don't get caught next to a loser
He might try to drag you down with him
Scraped up legs will tell the tale of
Who was out and who was really in
Whoah-oo-oh. . .
I'm full of emptiness
Relaxing with my stress
Don't try to clean my mess
I'm happier this way
I live for my demise
I love who I despise
Feed me a soothing lie
I'm happier that way
When I die
Will I feel darkness in the light
Will I see beauty when I'm blind
I don't have energy for rest
Because I'm cynically depressed
I never thought living clean
Would keep me so lonely
Cure my healthy disease
I'm happier this way
I'm climbing up your walls
So you can watch me fall
I'll never know it all
I'm happier that way
When I die
Will I feel darkness in the light
Will I see beauty when I'm blind
I don't have energy for rest
Because I'm cynically depressed
My youth is dying of apathy and old age
Under my skin is a child running away
When I die
Will I feel darkness in the light
Will I see beauty when I'm blind
I don't have energy for rest
I need a fix of carbohydrates to get me high
Can't even be a little bit too late or I will die
To lazy to run up those hills
And to cheap to buy those pills
I just crashed my diet
I fill myself full of calories 'cause I just don't care
I think it's really neat to eat meat and I won't share
Won't try it
I'm sorry for what I've done
I know I've hurt everyone
It's time for me to change
And become a betterman
I've lived too many lives
I've told too many lies
I hope I can change
And become a betterman
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry
I wish it was a different story
I wish I was a betterman
I live in the third degree
It always tortures me
I need to leave this place
And become a betterman
I'm searchin' for sympathy
But, it never follows me
It's time for me to change
And become a betterman
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry
I said things that I wish that I never said
Tired of sleeping inside my head
When will things be as they were before?
Woken up from a dream to find
I've lost everything that I had
Swept under a welcome mat
Will they forgive me
When I'm a betterman?
I'm shedding my extra skin
I'm taking the wrong medicine
If I disappear now
Am I a betterman?
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry
I wish I could make it back to Allentown
Maybe I can get someone to show me around
You were right, I was wrong
I've been this way for far too long
You hate me, I love you
Show me a place where I belong
I wish I could make it back to Allentown
Maybe I can get someone to push me around
You don't matter as much as you think
Or much at all
And when you become extinct
I'll watch you fall
I wish I could make it back to Allentown
Please look at me now
Look at all the things I do
I won't pay attention to you
I hope I can gather a crowd
Everyone should know I'm at my happiest
With a lampshade on top of my big head
My circus isn't dead
My nose is turning red
I want you to notice me right now
Please look at me when I show you how
When I try to look out to the crowd
I'm blinded by my arrogance
There's no one out there to arouse
I try to see you but what can I do
With the stars in my eyes
I'm going nowhere, I'll make it I swear
Even if I have to lie
Another weary day
Has left me with a beautiful addiction
No work and all day play
Leaves me feeling happy
When the day is done
I'll suffer just like everyone
And I'll watch as my life starts collecting dust
And when my friends are all dropping like flies
I'll just go to another place in time
Another weary day
Has left me with a beautiful addiction
No work and all day play
Leaves me feeling happy
When the day is done
I'll suffer just like everyone
And I'll laugh as my life starts collecting dust
And when my friends are all dropping like flies
I'll just go to another place in time
Another place in time
Another place in time
I'll be the next
To die of sex
And desolation
I can't accept
The loneliness
I need a hearing aid, so I can turn it off, when u talk down to me
I need a hearing aid, so I can turn it off, when u talk down to me
I want the world to shut up, I want the world to shut up,
I want the world to shut up, just for one day, one day
I need a cigarette, so I can light it up, then its hard for you to breathe
I need a cigarette, so I can light it up, then its hard for you to breathe
I want the world to shut up, I want the world to shut up,
I want the world to shut up, just for one day, one day
My day will come
Tell everyone that im away
Make yourself known
You've just begun, stay the same
I need a hearing aid, so I can turn it off, when u talk down to me
I need a hearing aid, so I can turn it off, when u talk down to me
I want the world to shut up, I want the world to shut up,
I want the world to shut up, just for one day
One day
One day
One day
I don't want you to know that I'm alone
Rather be at school well, then at home
If I had a friend I would have known
This is something that you don't understand
What it's like to be under someone's hand
I never like the boy inside the man
I can't forget the memories
Of how things used to be
Now stop and take a look at me
I can't go
I can't let go and forget
I can't let go (x2)
I want you all to know that I'm alive
Couldn't make me quit or take a dive
All I need is just another life
I can't forget the memories
Of how things used to be
Now stop and take a look at me
I can't go
I can't let go and forget
I can't let go (x2)

I can't go
I can't let go and forget
When I'm all by myself
I need someone to talk to me
Someone who makes me feel like I'm
Not coming to the end
I spend all my time alone
Until I can't take no more
Won't you please help me find
My imaginary. . .
I've never been so lonely
I don't know why
No one has ever shown me
I don't know why
I can't seem to find a way
But I know I've got to try
To make up for lost time
And change the I think
If I had a second chance
I'd try to do it all again
So it makes me wonder why
I am the missing. . .

I keep on thinking that I've
seen it all before
I can't see through the shades
It's getting hard for you to know me anymore
I'm hiding from the days
And I want to keep all of my privacy
And keep it to myself
A circle of friends in my memory
I hope they're doing well
I saw sunshine yesterday
I looked to the sky
Then I ran back inside
I saw sunshine yesterday
It blinded my eyes
It made me realize
That I'm not missing anything
I'm drawing pictures of myself on the wall
They're not that flattering
I'm singing songs that I've never heard at all
And singing out of key
Please uncle, please show me
what I should do now
Please uncle, please show me
Show me the way out
I'm scraping all I can from the bottom of a jar
So I don't have to leave
I'm keeping shelter from a giant burning star
When I'm all by myself
I need someone to talk to me
Someone who makes me feel like I'm
Not coming to the end
I spend all my time alone
Until I can't take no more
Won't you please help me find
