Trabaje por muchos anos, trabaje para el patron
Sin ganar mucho dinero y perdiendo my ambicion
Mas me vale una cancion
Que trabajar para el negrero siendo un pobre peon
Y si soy pobre pero no soy peon
Prefier la pobreza que vivir para el patron
I hate the man
I hate the man
I hate the man
I hate the man
Cuando estaba en la escuela
Para un mejor manana
Pero el manana nunca fue mejor
Estoy vivendo de mal en peor
I hate the man
I hate the man
I hate the man
I hate the man
A month ago I quit my job
and I swore that I'd never go back
'Cause even if I die tomorrow
There won't be sorrow
'Cause I'll no long be living
With a dream crushed by the man
I hate the man
I hate the man
I hate the man
Am I crazy?
There are voices in my head
And I can't stop them
I'm talking to myself
These conversations get me
They get me so mixed up
Even though I trust you
They tell me doubt, doubt, doubt
Doubt, doubt, doubt
Is it in my head?
Is it in my head?
Are you telling the truth?
Is it in me head
Or am I falling down a hill?
Gaining momentum
Towards the crash at the bottom where it began
Late night phone calls
Your voice seems unconcerned
I'm pulling my hair out
One for every word
Is it all imagination
I can only wish
Wouldn't be the first time
That I've been so confused
So confused
Is it in my head?
Is it in my head?
Are you telling the truth?
Is it in me head
Or am I falling down a hill?
Gaining momentum
Towards the crash at the bottom where it began
Time keeps counting down on me
Or is it just a dream?
Time keeps counting down on me
Or is it just a dream?
Time keeps counting down on me
Or is it just a dream?
Is it in me head
Or am I falling down a hill?
Gaining momentum
Towards the crash at the bottom where it began
It started many years ago.
Many have come and gone.
No expectations, nothing to lose.
Put out a few thoughts.
Shook up some lives.
Not like a role model, more like a friend.
When you were down,
you can't forget who pulled you up.
You can't forget who got you through.
You can't forget.
I don't know why, I don't know why
some people hace a very hard time.
Can't recognize, can't recognize
Who gave them a helping hand.
We're all the same!
Not like a role model, more like a friend.
You get me through.
Not like a role model, more like a friend.
When you were down,
you can't forget who pulled you up.
You can't forget who got you through.
I can't stand this for another day
What kind of fool do you think I am?
You sit and stare like you see through me
But you know nothing of the way I live
When you were young, were you just like me?
A grim future but you didn't care
Now, I can tell by the threads on you
You took a turn to stability
But that's okay
'Cause that is you and this is me
It's a dirty world, for me
It's a doubtful world, for me
You can't control my feet
As I dance to the beat
For me, it's a dirty world
For me, it's a doubtful world
For me, it's a time to speak
It's a youth explosion
Do anything that you wanna do
Go anywhere that you wanna go
Don't need permission like the rest of them
If this is loud then you're too old
When you were young, were you just like me?
A grim future but you didn't care
Now, I can tell by the threads on you
You took a turn to stability
But that's okay
'Cause that is you and this is me
It's a dirty world, for me
It's a doubtful world, for me
You can't control my feet
As I dance to the beat
For me, it's a dirty world
For me, it's a doubtful world
For me, it's a time to speak
It's a youth explosion
Now, the radio just ain't the same
And the tube airs nothing for me
So I spend a lot of time in my head
Where at least I know I'm free, youth
For me, it's a dirty world
For me, it's a doubtful world
For me, you can't control my feet
Now, I'm dancing to the beat
For me, it's a dirty world
For me, it's a doubtful world
For me, it's a time to speak
These old feelings make you think.
These old feelings make you drink.
These old feelings keep the time ticking away.
There's always something in my head
telling me I should be dead.
Then I realize thatthis time's ticking away.
Come on now sing.
You've got a friend in me.
Turn to me now, we'll make it somehow.
For times are tough and I won't let you down.
These old feelings make you think.
These old feelings make you drink.
These old feelings keep the time ticking away.
I feel strong to what I say.
Never sell you the wrong way.
These old feelings, They will never go away.
Come on now sing.
You've got a friend in me.
Turn to me now, we'll make it somehow.
Well, tonight there's gonna be trouble all around
From the midtown lights to the lifeless towns
Yeah, tonight we're gonna rock, we're gonna roll
Well, I don't wanna hear it, you're coming with me
You got nothing to do and nowhere you gotta be
'Cause tonight nothing gets in our way
Well, I don't wanna hear about bills to pay
No I don't wanna hear about that
'Cause when the radio is on and the music is playing
I just wanna keep on dancin'
Keep dancin', keep dancin' tonight
Move it girl
Well, it's getting kinda late doesn't work for me
'Cause tonight is gonna burn for the world to see
Yeah, tonight we're gonna rock, we're gonna roll
Well, I'm tired of the backs tab, I'm tired of the scene
If there's something to be said, well, then you say it to me
'Cause tonight nothing gets in my way
Well, the devil's gonna end up looking like a saint
'Cause stop ain't the word to be said
'Cause when the radio is on and the music's playing
I just wanna keep on dancin'
Keep dancin', keep dancin' tonight
Let's go, girl
Well, I don't wanna hear about work today
No I don't wanna hear about that
'Cause when the DJs on and the music's pumping
I just wanna keep on dancin'
Keep dancin', keep dancin' tonight
Let's go
Keep on dancin'
Working for the man, trying to make the wages,
Working for the man, selling sophistication.
Working for the girl, trying to stay sane,
when all you wants a ticket on an outbound train.
Hearts can be foolish.
Turn the careful to careless.
Here is your life. How do you like it?
Are you happy with the choices you've made?
Hearts can be foolish
We'll unite as one to make a color not named
Because we can't move forward with this hate in the way
From coast to coast, nation to nation
No matter who you are or what you believe, you're free
You can kick, you can punch
But you're never gonna break this
(Never gonna break this)
You can kick, you can punch
But you're never gonna break this
(Never gonna break this)
This is the future according to me
Our ears wide open to whoever may speak
To be judged by their words and not by skin
Ohh, money, no money, no status, no matter
And no matter what it does, it's all paper
You can kick, you can punch
But you're never gonna break this
(Never gonna break this)
You can kick, you can punch
But you're never gonna break this
(Never gonna break this)
This is the future according to me
Right here, right now
Excuses, all I hear as one red over call
Two portion, take home
I bet that your police and listen to all your call
You can kick, you can punch
But you're never gonna break this
You can kick, you can punch
Die! You Motherfuckers! Die
Die! You Motherfuckers! Die
You take advantage of the little kids
Just 'cause they don't know what's best for them
You weeze the juice right out the punk rock scene
No respect, you've seen the green
Well, this scene has a purpose
and it's not for your pocket
It's to unify each other with colorblind ideals
I go down to the city
even when the rain falls down [x4]
I don't care if it's a
boy or girl you're after
I don't care if it's a
record label deal
I don't care if it's a
nuclear reaction
I don't care if it's all
above the new
I go down to the city
even when the rain falls down [x4]
You can take your picket fence and
shove it up your ass
You can take that dream
of old money coming
Cuz I know a place
that's real
maybe not the people
but the way I feel
Downtown! Here we go!
Downtown! Here we go!
I go to the city
Nothing else to do
Forget about my worries
Maybe you should too
Downtown! Here we go!
Downtown! Here we go!
I go down to the city
Desolate and dark is the town where I am found.
No money in my pocket. Broken down and cold.
I won't let it get me down.
The cold is breaking through
the cracks and into my bones.
I'm three thousand miles away from home.
Good times are found,
good times are lost in the game we play
three thousand miles away from home.
Desolate and dark is the town where I am found.
No money in my pocket. Broken down and cold.
I won't let it get me down.
I've been down this road many times before.
Sometimes it gets so tough,
and it makes me think of hoime.
Then I think about the good times
and what you mean to me.
I'm coming back for you.
Desolate and dark is the town where I am found.
No money in my pocket. Broken down and cold.
Staring at this tool for an age of ugliness
Workplace is corrupt, nothing's gonna change
The road looks better as every minute passes by
Should be screamin' story of how we made it all this way
Brand Blvd. way, to a desolate road in New Orleans
Don't you know - there's a place bums like us can go
Don't you know - happiness comes and it goes
So all you rock and rollers with voices in your heads
They're never gonna change, they're here to stay
and they're telling you to do what you really want to do
Should be screamin' story of how we made it all this way
Brand Blvd. way, to a desolate road in New Orleans
Don't you know - there's a place bums like us can go
Don't you know - happiness comes and it goes
As I look down on my glass of red wine
I sit and think what might've been
Nah, fuck that man, live for today
For today...
Don't you know - there's a place bums like us can go
You can make a change
if you can make it now
not going to school, not going to work
Just think to get the fuck out of this town
Just fuck it all
Just wanna go on the road with my friends
Going on going on going on the road
Cause I have nothing holding me back in this town
So I'm going on going on going on the road
going on going on the road
Number one at any moment of my life
Is just to quit my job
and grab my guitar
And get out of this stinking hole
I call my home, Fuck that place
And go on the road
go on the road with my friends
Goin on going on going on the road
Cause I have nothing holding me back in this town
So I'm going on going on going on the road
Going on going on the road
Number one at any moment of my life
Hey! Hey!
Is just to quit my job
and grab my guitar
And get out of this stinking hole
I call my home
And go on the road
go on the road with my friends
Going on going on going on the road
Cause I have nothing holding me back in this town
So I'm going on going on going on the road
Going on going on the road
Got few possessions in my life
Got a guitar and a TV
and I got friends who back me up
If some OC guy wants to beat
I must say the most valuable thing
I got's the VCB
I got their backs and I know
They'll always cover me
Autumn's gonna do what she wants to do
Autumn's gonna say what she wants to say
She fucked over many people on the way
I hope she's happy 'cause now she's got no friends
What was the meaning of the things
She used to tell me day and night
Started wrong in the beginning
But you made it seem so right
You had me blind with all your lies
To my surprise, you were unstable
But I realize, it was your life
You just weren't able
Autumn's gonna do what she wants to do
Autumn's gonna say what she wants to say
She fucked over many people on the way
I hope she's happy 'cause now she's got no friends
Autumn's gonna do what she wants to do
Autumn's gonna say what she wants to say
She fucked over many people on the way
Uncertainty follows me like a shade and it fogs my vision.
Like a blind man I'm in the dark. I walk with no driection.
I stumble, I fall, I trip on my own footsteps.
Intuition and hope are my eyes in the uncertainty of tomorrow.
It will be a better day.
Hope is a waking dream. I'm only half awake.
My room's a place to hide. It's not a place to sleep.
A better day awaits for me.
I know enough to know that I don't know much of anything
If I open my eyes I see things I don't want to see.
I stumble, I fall, I trip on my own footsteps.
Intuition and hope are my eyes in the uncertainty of tomorrow.
It will be a better day.
Hope is a waking dream. I'm only half awake.
My room's a place to hide. It's not a place to sleep.
A better day awaits for me.
If I open my eyes I see things that make me want t o fade away.
I stumble, I fall, I trip on my own footsteps.
I stumble, I fall, I trip on my own footsteps.
Hope is a waking dream. I'm only half awake.
My room's a place to hide. It's not a place to sleep.
Don't want to wake up in the morning.
Don't want to see my pops.
Son't want to see my mother either,
cause I got no job.
I know I owe them something,
but I forgot what it was
they want me to live the same life they
already gave.
No way, my life ain't yours.
No way, I do what I want.
No way I'll make it loud when I scream.
Sometimes you just can't win.
I sold all my punk rock vinyl,
just to pay my debts.
But now I'm down to my six strings,
I can't sell that.
Rock and roll got my into this mess,
It better get me out.
Sometimes I want to give this all up,
but I just want to shout.
No way, my life ain't yours.
No way, I do what I want.
No way I'll make it loud when I scream.
I stand witness of destruction in the streets.
Blood shed in the city. Shots ring oer seas.
I staqdn witness of a broken world, of a dying world
on it's way to self-destruction.
This bed's been made. We don't have to lie on it.
This world is not like you. This world is not like me.
We must unite and build a new nation. This one has
failed us. It's failed my generation.
Better, stronger, together, forever.
A brand new nation, is what we need.
No situation or time for furstration.
Let's shake it off, let's try it again.
Righteous separation and world segregation
make holy wars between unholy nations.
I don't watn to be part of this broken worlf.
Let's take the pieces and build a new one, build it strong.
Better, stronger, together, forever.
A brand new nation, is what we need.
I see destruction on the streets.
I see destruction in the city.
Phone woke up up about 12 PM on Sunday morning
Bad hangover day
Johnny said what's going on today?
I said I don't know nothing
Why don't you call the other guys
I waited for an hour and then I took a shower
and headed over to R.W.'s house
He's was there with a bottle and ready to go
Just a lazy Sunday afternoon
In the city of angels with the boys
With a bad hangover and nothing to do
Just a lazy Sunday afternoon
Met Johnny and Torra later on that day
At the subway station on Hollywood and Vine
We took a train to Union station
and walked around Olvera Street
We met a crazy man, a crazy comedian
A social worker with a lot of bad jokes
He was there with a bottle and ready to go
Just a lazy Sunday afternoon
In the city of angels with the boys
With a bad hangover and nothing to do
Just a lazy Sunday afternoon
Get back to Hollywood and Vine
and met up at Westbeach Recorders
Saw Tim and Lars, but they had to go
Before we could say hi
So we talked to Donnell
Before today I've never ridden on the MCA
Never ridden on the MCA
Never ridden on the MCA
Never ridden on the MCA
Every time I turn on MTV, I see the same shit
Every time I turn my stereo, I hear the same shit
The same stupid people doing the same fucking songs
Over and over, it drives me up the wall
and these things make me wonder just who runs the puppet show
and why do we allow them to make us sink so low
When they brainwash the young ones, we have to stand tall
or they'll turn us into puppets with the puppets they control
When is it gonna be my turn?
When the corporates at MTV monopolize this industry
When is it gonna be my turn?
When the corporations let you know it's cool for you to look at me
When is it gonna be my turn?
I've got something to say to these corporations
and it's sweet and to the point
and in plain and simple English
FUCK YOU!
Well, your music says nothing to me
and most people one day will see
That image without message's just not enough
Don't be a follower, stand up and stand tough
Sometimes it makes me wonder just who runs the puppet show
and why do we allow them to make us sink so low
When they brainwash the young ones, we have to stand tall
or they'll turn us into puppets with the puppets they control
When is it gonna be my turn?
When the corporates at MTV monopolize this industry
When is it gonna be my turn?
When the corporations let you know it's cool for you to look at me
When is it gonna be my turn?
I've got something to say to these corporations
and it's sweet and to the point
and in plain and simple English
FUCK YOU!
When is it gonna be my turn?
When the corporates at MTV monopolize this industry
When is it gonna be my turn?
When the corporations let you know it's cool for you to look at me
When is it gonna be my turn?
I've got something to say to these corporations
and it's sweet and to the point
and in plain and simple English
FUCK YOU!
FUCK YOU!
I've lost my mind, my memory, my cause.
It used to be oh so easy to chool these things.
I've lost my mind, my memory, my cause.
It used to be oh so easy to school these things.
But I believe in something better from now on.
Bloody knuckles say it all.
I've seen go men die and bad men rise.
This used to be so regular inside our minds.
And revolution comes to those who wait.
A look out your window say it all.
We can do this forever.
The bonds that we have make us stronger.
the good times we've shared
will always keep us tied together.
And when they; re gone, we'll still be here.
Where the highway goes on one knows.
But escape is not the plan.
We will accept what we've been thrown.
That's the way it is and that's the way it stays.
Bloody knuckles say it all.
They say the future, it belongs to us.
But as we get closer I wish a bomb would just hit time.
The papers say the problems goen away.
There's so much more to be done.
We can do this forever.
The bonds that we have make us stronger.
the good times we've shared
will always keep us tied together.
And when they; re gone, we'll still be here.
We'll still be here.
One life to live is what we really get
and we think we live, but all of us are dying
A little more each day
It's six o'clock time to get up
and get ready for work 'cause we can't be late
Or else we won't get paid
and everybody wants to make a little more
Than all the friends living next door
Security in exchange for emptiness
Is the price in the USA
Two steps behind of the American dream
Two steps behind and then some more
Two steps behind is where you'll find my boys and me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
and I wanna do is wake up
How much money will it take
How many hours a day
will keep you from the grave?
Mr. Gates, are you gonna freeze yourself
like Mr. Disney did?
To keep your dream alive
So you won't have to die
Well, everybody wants to live a little more
Than all the friends living next door
Security in exchange for emptiness
Is the price in the USA
Two steps behind of the American dream
Two steps behind and then some more
Two steps behind is where you'll find my boys and me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
and I wanna do is wake up
Wake up!
Wake up!
Wake up!
Two steps behind of the American dream
Two steps behind and then some more
Two steps behind is where you'll find my boys and me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
This All-American dream's more like a nightmare to me
This city will not sleep tonight.
I hear sirens as I walk down 59th.
I New York City, lost under a gray sky,
I thought I heard my name
through the sound of the pouring rain.
We're the troops from the west and we never rest.
We're the boys, we're the boys on the open road.
For east to west we; ve done our best.
We're the boys, we're the boys on the open road.
I hear my hometown calling.
I rememver all the emptiness I thought I left behind,
As I checked into a brick hotel on 11th adn 59th.
I see my name on the neon lit marquee.
Maybe the emptiness was always meant to be.
We're the troppes from the west and we never rest.
We're the boys, we're the boys on the open road.
From east to west we've done our best.
We're the boys, we're the boys on the open road.
Hey, listen friend, why don't you pull up a chair
I'll tell you a story about a boy in despair
It was a hot summer day, just like any in L.A.
This boy went out with his friend
In search of a girlfriend
It happens every Saturday
They meet, they talk, and have a shot
He takes her home, they fuck
They never speak to each other again
A typical one night stand
Such a waste, such a shame
This boy's got no bad intentions
Just looking for attention
In a world that's turned him down and down
and down and down he goes
So many days had passed since I spoke to him
Picked up the phone, gave him a ring, he wasn't in
His roommate said he wasn't in
What a waste of a life
He drank and fucked until the day he took a dive
I used to hang with my friend
In search of a girlfriend
It happens every Saturday
They meet, they talk, and have a shot
He takes her home, they fuck
They never speak to each other again
A typical one night stand
Such a waste, such a shame
This boy's got no bad intentions
Just looking for attention
In a world that's turned him down and down
We like to drink and we like to party
The VCB always gets a bit naughty
With the guiness in our hands
and the buddah in our pants
We're gonna have a dandy old time
Seven PM, we're on our way to Lucky Baldwins
Our pints are ready 'cause the bartender knows us
Ryan lit up a joint and it stunk up my car
Now we're tripping all the way to the bar
We're gonna get loose
Till the sun comes up tomorrow morning
We're gonna party all night long
We're gonna get loose
Till the sun comes up tomorrow morning
We're gonna party all night long
We like to drink and we like to party
The VCB always gets a bit naughty
With the guiness in our hands
and the buddah in our pants
We're gonna have a dandy old time
Pass me another one
The night has just begun
Pass me the Augustijn
and I'll be just fine
If we don't kimp on the tip
Not one little bit
Cuco Maluco will keep our drinks
Fresh like Pachuco
We're gonna get loose
Till the sun comes up tomorrow morning
We're gonna party all night long
We're gonna get loose
Till the sun comes up tomorrow morning
We're gonna party all night long
It's 2 AM and I can't walk straight
Last call for alcohol, we'll be okay
Last Hefeweizen, it's on the way
We'll be okay, we'll be all right
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
We're gonna get loose
Till the sun comes up tomorrow morning
We're gonna party all night long
We're gonna get loose
Till the sun comes up tomorrow morning
On a moonless night by a shadowless wall,
I sit and listen to my radio.
And I wonder tonight is it heaven or hell.
For weeks at a time I'm the good guy lifes taught me.
Then it all goes south and I realize that ain't me.
And the boys were shouting hey.
Because tonight we get away.
Heaven or hell is on the way, let's go!
Heart will overcome.
And tonight were on the run.
I've got you, maybe that's enough.
Sometimes I wonder, what's it all about.
So many times, I've paid that jukebox to explain it all,
I put my money down, hit the same track I've picked for years.
Kicking walls cause the explanations never clear.
I'll make that choice no mattter what it is.
10, 000 miles starts with just one step.
And the boys were shouting hey.
Because tonight we get away.
Heaven or hell is on the way, let's go!
Heart will overcome.
And tonight were on the run.
In a bar in downtown Dale an old man tells a tale.
He screams of a day of poets where
the streets are ours not theirs.
He screams piss on everything.
na na na na na na na hey!
My leather jacket is zipped up and ready.
The boots on my feet, they keep me steady.
I want to join the gang and sing.
Na na na na na na na hey!
Bright lights, big city
Bright lights, big city
we want the streets [x3]
Bright lights, big city!
Old men say, they say son
It's going to be hard to get older.
Give it time and you will see see.
Well now that time has come and gone
its gone, yeah!
I may be young but I know nothing
nothing really matters
except what's in your heart.
No good, no bad, no wrong, no right.
Na na na na na na na hey!
Bright lights, big city!
Bright lights, big city!
(we want the streets [x3])
Bright lights, big city!
Meet us on the street
Underneath bright lights, in the city.
There we'll find our hearts,
our souls,
our dreams
Meet us on the street
underneath bright lights, big city.
Nothing hold us back
when we believe our heart's
the size of buildings.
Yeah!
Bright lights, big city
Bright lights, big city
(we want the streets [x3])
Bright lights big city
Bright lights big city
(we want the streets [x3])
Do you know what it's like
to grow up having nothing
That's the price of today
Do you know what it's like
To not be free and speak your mind
Well I grow up and I'm blessed like that
No, we don't care about democracy
No no no no no, cuz we know it's just hypocrisy
No, we don't care about your government
No no no no no, we don't care about your president
And I'm glad when I'm free to say it
When I was young I was lie back to my face
They turned a life about?...? and fame
Well now I know, and I know the truth about this life
They are nothing when you're gone
No, we don't care for religions No!
No, cuz they have all made us real low
No, we don't care about your crucifix
No no no no, we don't care about your holy fucking saints
And I'm glad when I'm free to say it [x4]
And we'll say it again [x2]
No, we don't care about your government
No no no no, we don't care about yer president
No no no no, we don't care about yer crucifix
No no no no, we don't care about your holy fucking saints
And I'm glad when I'm free yo say it
Get that out of your head
Is what they told me now
Tried to clip my wings
Keep my feet on the ground
But I got something
They could never have
I got heart
I got love tonight
And it won't die
No matter what they do
It won't die
No matter what they say
It won't die
No matter what they do
Take your phony ideals
And get 'em out of my face
Because I do what I want
And not what others say
'Cause I got something
They could never have
I got heart
I got love tonight
It won't die
No matter what they do
It won't die
No matter what they say
It won't die
No matter what they do
Get up get out
They said to me
There ain't no sense
In chasing dreams
Stop
I got something
They could never have
I got something
They could never have
I got something
They could never have
I got heart
I got faith tonight
It won't die
No matter what they do
It won't die
No matter what they say
It won't die
No matter what they do
It won't die
Everytime i look at u i wanna kill, i wanna kill
Stranger things that i would do to make u feel the way i feel
Its just that i have been broken so many thousand times
and everytime i start again i wonder why, wonder why
Its been such a hard year, it wont ever change
My heart isnt cold now, Its not what it seems because
you say to me your heart feels far away
im lovesick now.
Everytime i look at u i wanna die, wanna die
Stranger things that i would say to make u feel the way i feel
Its just that i have been broken so many thousand times
And everytime i start again i wonder why, wonder why
Its been such a hard year, it wont ever change
My heart isnt cold now, its not what it seems because
You say to me your heart feels far away
Now day by day i start to realize that nothings gonna change
so i became
it doesnt really matter anyway
its not what it seems to me, because
you say to me your heart feels far away
Midnight strikes but I can't close my eyes
These dreams of mine keep me sweating all night
It's hard to see this gift run away from me
Like water down the drain you watch it slip away
Daylight is closing in on me
It's closing in on me
It's closing in on me
Life brings another day
For some sunlight, others rain
What will it hold for me
There's hope my cards have not been seen
You know your heart will carry you through
It's all you need and all you ever will
And when the rain comes falling at night
You'll find it warm wherever you feel right
Where you feel right
When midnight strikes
A bright light shines
Through a crack in a well closed blind
And so the sun reminds
To all those counting time
Start over again
Watch the sun fall from the sky
When the smallest noise seems loud
You'll know midnight's struck
You know your heart will carry you through
It's all you need and all you ever will
And when the rain comes falling at night
You'll find it warm wherever you feel right
And when it's falling down upon your head now
You'll find me there with cover drawn
So close your eyes 'cause night is on the way now
Float a boat across the sea to islands in the sun
Take a plane across the world in miles you won't find
Someone who will love you quite as much as me
Too much time talking, you're talking, you're talking again
Now you see me walking, I'm walking
Go start looking, but in looking you won't find
Someone like me who gave up all the time
You will spend the rest of your life
Searching for ground
'Cause away from me
Everywhere you walk is caving in now
You will spend the rest of your life
Searching for ground
'Cause away from me
Everywhere you walk is caving in now
Take a look around you, around you, around you
Now you are alone girl, alone girl, alone girl
Go start looking, but in looking you won't find
Someone like me who gave up all the time
You will spend the rest of your life
Searching for ground
'Cause away from me
Everywhere you walk is caving in now
You will spend the rest of your life
Searching for ground
'Cause away from me
Everywhere you walk is caving in now
Time won't heal a thing
These wounds you've made run too deep
One day you're gonna see
Well, you could wrap them up, but it won't be me
You will spend the rest of your life
Searching for ground
'Cause away from me
Everywhere you walk is caving in now
You will spend the rest of your life
Searching for ground
'Cause away from me
Sometimes it's hard to see
Good times ahead for you
With all this hate and greed
Getting in the way
You should come ride with me
I know a place for free
We can run and hide
Through the day and night
New York or L.A.
Downtown's the place
For hearts like ours
Together we're free
We'll run you and me
In the city tonight
Somewhere in the city tonight
Well, somewhere in the city tonight
We'll hide on, we'll be alright
Well, somewhere in the city tonight
We'll hide on, we'll be alright
Let's go
Come on
Let's run the streets near 25th
Watch the fog roll over that golden gate
There's time tonight and nothing we can lose
New York or L.A.
Downtown's the place
For hearts like ours
Together we're free
We'll run you and me
In the city tonight
Somewhere in the city tonight
Well, somewhere in the city tonight
We'll hide on, we'll be alright
Well, somewhere in the city tonight
We'll hide on, we'll be alright
Well, somewhere in the city tonight
We'll hide on, we'll be alright
Well, somewhere in the city tonight
We'll hide on, we'll be alright
Well, somewhere in the city tonight
We'll hide on, we'll be alright
Well, somewhere in the city tonight
We'll hide on, we'll be alright
We've been fighting way too long now
I don't know if I want to give in or up
The never knowing of it's really starting to bug
One day it's sun then the next day's full of clouds
Well, you never know what you want to do
So this is me telling you
You're so up, down, turnaround
Up, down, turnaround
Every which way, make up your mind
Up, down, turnaround
Up, down, turnaround
Movin' to the left, movin' to the right
Come on, come on you're making me crazy
We've been trying hard not to talk of it
But everywhere we go it rears its ugly head
Sometimes a broken heart is the price that you've gotta pay
For a love that can sometimes taste so sweet
Well, you never know what you want to do
So this is me telling you
You're so up, down, turnaround
Up, down, turnaround
Every which way, make up your mind
Up, down, turnaround
Up, down, turnaround
Movin' to the left, movin' to the right
Come on, come on you're making me crazy
You're not happy until I'm unhappy
Why?
Well, you never know what you want to do
So this is me telling you
You're so up, down, turnaround
Up, down, turnaround
Every which way, make up your mind
Up, down, turnaround
Up, down, turnaround
Movin' to the left, movin' to the right
Come on, come on you're making me crazy
Come on, come on you're driving me crazy
Through eyes made of glass I watch her
Always in focus I snap away
Like a spider I crawl through the places
No one really wants to be
Paid money to bring home the bad news
About that lipstick you've never seen
And the red dress, oh how cute
She is such a bad girl, you better believe
She is under suspicion
She is under suspicion
She is under suspicion
But you don't wanna hear about it
Out of the office, right to the motel
Always in focus I snap away
Close your door while you're closing the oven
Both cooking underneath the heat
Paid money to bring home the bad news
He ain't getting paid for working late
One more meal alone in the house now
Who's been a bad boy, you better believe
He is under suspicion
He is under suspicion
He is under suspicion
But you don't wanna hear about it
Decisions get made, some bad, some good
But don't make a mistake 'cause I'll be there
Decisions get made
But don't make a mistake 'cause I'll be there
And now I have them, I've got them, snap away
Snap, snap, snap, snap it
Through moonlight shadows I watch them
Listen through the sounds of a pouring rain
One on the balcony, the other in a backseat
Both think the other is home fast asleep
Paid money to bring home the bad news
It's ain't what it seems but it never is
Mommy and daddy made mistakes like they all do
But they didn't know I was watching them
They are under suspicion
They are under suspicion
They are under suspicion
They are under suspicion
