I'm left handed when throwing
My shit across the room.
I'm left handed when I throw a fit
I use my left hand when I make myself come
To my senses when I'm losing it.
My left hand is good for when I'm knocking on wood
Although I gotta admit that it hurts.
I'm left handed when I picture you with another,
With your right hand taking off your skirt.
Chorus:
So I'm gonna take a day off
And watch the world around me.
Take a day off and take it all in.
Gonna take a day off and watch the world around me
Take a day off and try to blend in
I'm left handed when writing graffiti on bridges,
Though I can't write a bridge for this song.
They said I shoulda left out the part about your boob job,
They said it made this song kinda long.
My left hand's got a tan line where the ring used to be,
The one that you gave me before, 'cause I left that ring behind
Inside an empty glass wine when the waitress scraped me up off the floor
(chorus)
Bridge:
So little time with so much to do, everything was fine,
Then there was you, I really don't mind
If you just pack your shit and go away.
(pack your shit and go away)
Rolled for a chance.
Taking back.
Earned my wings.
Solid ground.
Never fall.
Fueled by strength.
Scale the walls.
Fearless fire.
Focused mind.
Clear a way.
Synchronize your soul and mind.
Rising high.
Feel the life.
Grabbing on.
Vision clears.
A great escape.
Claims our senses.
Stride or fall.
Cleanse to grow.
Fight for all.
Brick foundation.
Play your own.
Skill to gain.
Own the strain.
Lease your future hold.
Future home.
Undying will.
Silence all.
Strife the odds.
Overcome.
Brave return.
Crush rivalry.
Breathe in thought.
See an end.
Tooth and nail, seize, maintain control.
I never will kneel.
I won't let go.
Never chained or slowed by a lack of drive or strength.
Filled in soul.
An everlasting flame I bring.
Clash.
Combine.
Defending my integrity.
Shine.
Foresee a child born who thirsts to grow.
Forever soar.
Sees.
Perceptive judge of barren truth.
A guided hand.
Hold a vital force of life's desire.
Flare the sky.
Essential find.
Fistic vein.
The fuse that binds.
Sear the fuse.
Fistic vein binds.
A nature find.
Brilliant sky I find.
No other way to build foundation.
Who-oh-who-oh-oh-who-oh-oh-oh-oh-way
Who-oh-who-oh-oh-who-oh-oh-oh-oh-way
My left hand pets a stray cat
While the right one reaches for the revolver
My left leg stands in the hallway
While the right one's rushing out the door
What is the problem
Why can't we get along?
Lets sort out the problem
So we can carry on
Who-oh-who-oh-oh-who-oh-oh-oh-oh-way
Who-oh-who-oh-oh-who-oh-oh-oh-oh-way
My right eye reads the paper
While the left one's gazing at the girls
My left leg's staying at sea-view hotel room
And the right sleeps under the stars
What is the problem
Why can't we get along?
Lets sort out the problem
So we can carry on
There's a compromise in me
Standing somewhere in between the two opposites
There's a compromise in me
Two sides you've never seen
Who-oh-who-oh-oh-who-oh-oh-oh-oh-way
Who-oh-who-oh-oh-who-oh-oh-oh-oh-way
What is the problem
Why can't we get along?
Lets sort out the problem
So we can carry on
Lets sort out the problem
So we can carry on
Lets sort out the problem
So we can carry on
Who-oh-who-oh-oh-who-oh-oh-oh-oh-way
Bad luck never leaves.
Your jinx just floats around like the taste in you mouth,
or the sound when your skull cracks.
Feel the growing pains.
It means you're growing up too fast.
Telling white lies to black cats.
Stretch me out across the tracks.
While you were sleeping I was blood red,
sharp as a knife inside your stomach.
I'm squeezing tight; don't let the light in.
No medicine.
Daydream tendencies had you smiling soft and sweet.
Keep those blurry memories somewhere safe-
you may need them.
You can make a wish,
but there's no rabbit out the hat.
Realize it's never coming back.
While you were sleeping I was blood red,
sharp as a knife inside your stomach.
I'm squeezing tight; don't let the light in.
the car is parked her mom and dad are fast asleep inside
she sits across from me she licks her lips and bats her eyes
the time to make the move is now
i slide across the seat i want to try and take it slow
i hope she don't reject me don't think i could take the blow
i get the nerve and then I slide my hand inside her skirt
she crossed her legs and broke my wrist and yeah-
it f@#*ing hurts the pain is killing me
i know i'm not alone
i'm not the only one
broken to the bone
see through me
it's three weeks later and we cut the cast and hit the town
crazy scene and everybody there was getting down i want her badly
so i waited for her in the hall
looked into the room and she was in a free for all
the pain is killing me its f@#*ing killing me now
won't you tell me why she's doing this
won't you tell me why she's doing it
i wanna know right now
won't you tell me right now
i want to hear it right now
so won't you tell me right now
said she has a secret in her pocket
i don't think she's ever gonna show nobody else
bet she has a secret hidden in her past
i don't think she's ever gonna pull it off the shelf
and no one knows why she keeps it to herself
and she wishes she was someone else
said she hears voices screaming in her head
i don't think their demons but there's really nothing else
said she hates her mom but i think it should be dad
i don't think she's ever gonna figure it out
nobody knows her
said she has a secret in her pocket
i don't think she's ever gonna show nobody else
said she hears voices screaming in her head
I don't think she's ever gonna let them out
nobody knows her
take you on a rocket ride to the moon
you wouldn't come back
even though you knew i was tired
standing on the sun you looked so bright
i felt the meltdown you put the clamp down
on me again
i couldn't wake up when i tried
you stood there laughing as i died
read about your ruin as they said it was self inflicted
and i thought just like you to prove yourself again
i held the key to your success
loaded gun in the top drawer you overlooked it
: or did you?
i couldn't wake up when i tried
you left me for a rocket ride
long enough you held your breath
long enough to keep me here
i couldn't leave if i...
i couldn't leave you if i tried, even if i tried
i'd be so much better off without you now
first in cut down she watches his caress her skin
last call she's ready now it's time to fill the need she feels
ain't no one around she takes a hand the cross she wears around her neck
broken heart she tattoos there
last one standing in the crowd is usually the one she's with
gender doesn't matter to her now it's just to fill the need she feels
ain't no one around he takes her hand the cross she wears around her neck
broken heart she tattoos there now
maybe this one will stay she prays
sunlight shows it's ugly face again
it's time to fill the need to feel
ain't no one around he takes her hand the cross she wears around her neck
broken heart she tattoos there now
ain't no one around she's dying there the phone that lays across the bed
one more call she's got to make
with a need to fill
just a need to fill
rub me out make me weak like I'm dying
i won't give in again stronger than you thought
i'm what you wanted, you made me what you wanted, you made me what you wanted
i'm the mess you made
the way I live you don't get now you want to try it
your way to late and missed your call headed on my own
i'm what you wanted, you made me what you wanted, you made me what you wanted
you try and push me try and knock me to the ground
you try and push me but i won't go down
you try and stop me try and stand in my way
you try and stop me but your much too late
i won't give anything, anything, anything:
anything at all you made me what you wanted, you made me what you wanted
you made me what you wanted, you made me what you wanted
i'm the mess you made
don't you settle when you should move the edges around
wide awake you can't get up, overwhelmed
and if this is all you say there is
then iv'e had enough i want to taste the razor kiss
I want to see too much
lost what you learned along the way it's all behind you now
all that you'd just as soon forget always finds you somehow
alone on a ship that won't sail on a sea of regret
another storm out in the distance another day
lost what you learned along the way it's all behind you now
all that you'd just as soon forget always finds you somehow
it's all been a crazy dream endless falls and whispered screams
nothing is what it seems never is never was
now the years go by like days hours carve lines in your face
someone new to take your place never is never was
lost what you learned along the way:
anything that you wanted anything at all
well I would have given to you
now that your gone I take it all away
and you can't find the truth and now your drowning
i would of made you strong
And i wouldn't let you fall
And i want to turn you on again
everything that you wanted everything that you got
i have given to you
now that your gone i want it back again
and you don't feel the same and i take the blame
i would of made you strong
And i wouldn't let you fall
And i want to turn you on again
you don't feel a thing anymore it's all gone wrong
i still taste the blame today
cocked and loaded
pointed in my direction
no protection guess your gonna
hit me with it
slow implosion
no one knows what makes it all tick
guess we're gonna
burn out trying
hollow to the core we are
swallowed
broken by the mold
no one knows how we lost control
no one knows why
one explosion haunts you slow
and small it all is a speck of dust
you'll wipe right off in time
and when it all ends
how can you say you never were a slave
look em in the eye
and face it
no one knows
pointed in my direction
guess your gonna hit me with it
pointed in my direction
stop the lies and i'll promise not to shut you out
i'd give you everything
if you'd only throw away your doubts
shut the blinds open the door, fifteen times
fifty bars of soap
and you use each one never more than twice
and i need to know where you run to now
i need to know where you run and hide
cause it doesn't get better and it don't get worse
always stays the same
cause it's as good as we can get can get can get
take a walk and never step on any lines or cracks
bring the food it's always wrong
you always send it back
clean the floor and line the shelves but it's never right
set the table up the spoon, the fork and then the knife
girls hit back
when you least expect
where you most regret it
girls they don't understand
why i love my friends
more than them
i don't mean to say it but somebody
needs to put an end to them
i don't mean to say it but somebody
needs to put an end to girls
girls decorate the house
with flowers and cows
and pictures of the family
girls think their misunderstood
but i know goddamned well
all the things they do
they do to nerve me
they'll never understand
tell him what you know thought you had me
but i let it go
and now i'm gonna take down the whole thing
everything is going down with me
thought you told him everything
left out a little bit about yourself
and i found out from your best friend
i think its time that i filled him in
and now i'm gonna take down the whole thing
everything is going down
with me
you know to much keep it to yourself
so much at stake but you don't give a damn
and now it's coming back on you
you keep on pushing baby can't you see
always try but your never gonna get to me
i'll make sure this time
tell him what you know i thought you had me
but you let me go
can't take it anymore cause
i got so much i've been saving up
all that I am just what you made never gonna forgive you for that now
and all of of my mistakes yeah all that I made
guess I'm never gonna live them down
wipe them all away it's easier to face
when I don't have to watch them fail
and all that I am it's easier to face
and now I wipe them all away
it's easier to face
took just what you wanted never gonna give it back
you f#*@ed me around for the last time my friend
just because you got a pretty face don't mean
that i'll cave into you again
wipe them all away it's easier to face
when I don't have to watch it fail
know that I am it's easier to face
and now I wipe them all away
one last time it's easier to face
and now I wipe them all away
all of my gifts never gonna take back
all that i am just what you made
give, no i can't give
given in
no i can't take it anymore
wake, no i won't wake i won't shine
i won't fake it anymore
i said bye bye-bye-bye
she'll close her eyes and leave this place
bye-bye-bye
she closed her eyes
give, given in i settle in
like a seed the dirt is sewn
when she says i won't wait
can't smile again won't fake it anymore
she don't wanna feel anything at all
you pretend not to notice it standing there next to you
you act so hard don't you really wish it could be home under you
don't even try to make sense of it now
your better off when your by yourself
look in the eye and a motion made but you wind up alone again
so much to tell but you save face and you never say anything
don't even try to make sense of it now
your better off when your by yourself
nothing you can say to yourself
your better off now
think your better than the rest of them
only so much you can stand
so much better than the rest of them
only so much you can stand
don't even try to make sense of it now
your better off by yourself
nothing you can say to yourself
pushing on it never really made her any stronger
waited so long I wondered is she ever coming down
is she ever coming down
is she ever gonna come back down
took away the motivation
feet are moving forward but she's falling fast
took me so long to figure out
last on the vine to know about
intuition try and tell me but I always doubt it
now I want to try it now I won't deny it
pulling under spinning now she's spinning on the way down
and she wonders how it got so heavy couldn't set it down
took me so long to figure out
last on the vine to know about
intuition try and tell me but I always doubt it
now I want to try it
holding on she's hanging on she's hanging all the way down
wait so long I think she's going crazy then she finally comes down
I have no regrets about how I live my life live this lie until now
I took something you took something now there's nothing left to take
It's time to put this whole damn thing to rest to bed to bed now
Chose to stick around even though I confessed
held your own secret even in the bitter end
I took something you took something now there's nothing left to fake
It's time to put this god damned thing to rest to bed
and now it's much too late for apologies now
and now it's much too late for apologies now
it's too much it's too late to late again
all I wanted was everything I could take for free
it's much too late
ever since the first time that i laid my eyes upon you
yeah there was something about it, something about it
i knew i never ever want to find another
yeah there was something
that made me want to
wrap myself around you
til it all connects
wrap myself around you
til it all falls into place
ever since the first time that i laid my hands upon you
yeah there was something about it, something about it
i knew i never ever want to touch another
yeah there was something about it, something about it
every time i get a little further out
yeah you bring me back, something about it
makes never ever want to run again
yeah there was something
that made want to
wrap myself around you
til it all connects

til it all falls into place
i never want to find myself
without you there
cause i know there's nowhere else

another superstar set in place
and for a year they shove him in your face
then he's burned out on a tabloid cover
strung up and left for dead
nothing left of him now
he's useless
nothing left of him now
started out an underground sensation
androgynous a king or the queen
looks the best when he's near starvation
someday they'll fix his teeth
nothing left of him now
he's useless
take all the pictures back down
useless
nothing left of him now
they'll use him till
there's nothing left now
see him falling down through the charts
he's falling faster falling farther
can't find his way through the plagiarizing assholes
they stole his art and repossessed his car
nothing left now:useless
so much for the i dos
nothing ever takes you off my mind
pictures put in cardboard boxes
now it seems like you've just stopped the time
changed my clock to make it tick backwards
but the time is still slipping away
i smile on the outside, lonely on the inside
you'll never know how miserable i've been
some days i just stay in bed
waiting for a dream where you arrive
but instead i wake up to another day
empty house of memories things you say
stuck inside i wish i'd die
smile on the outside, lonely on the inside
you'll never know how miserable i've been
i'm smiling on the outside, lonely on the inside
you'll never know how miserable i've been
change my number threw the sheets away
all my friends just think that i'm a disgrace
everyday i find something else to miss about you
and i wonder do you feel the same
i smile on the outside, lonely on the inside
you'll never know how miserable i've been
smile on the outside, lonely on the inside
you'll never know how miserable i've been
woah oh oh woah oh oh woah oh oh oh oh oh oh
i could tell you something but you'd never keep it to yourself
never shut your mouth and one day it's gonna get you in the end
shouldn't of told you wish i didn't know you
want to make you just fade away
frustrated so you threw it all away
everything
yeah you threw it all away
everything
yes you love it when your sitting on the edge
tugging on the rope watching everybody spin
soon enough I know your gonna wind up mixed up in it
shouldn't of told you wish i didn't know you
but you love to see me in pain
frustrated so you threw it all away
everything
yeah you threw it all away
everything
now you started over with nothing
everything
you threw it all away ...everything
spinning in circles
till you find another crowd
spinning in circles
i could tell you something but you'd never keep it to yourself
never shut your mouth and one day you'll throw it all away
empty feeling in a crowded room he knew that
he shouldn't have come today
best intentions get misunderstood
he just wanted to see her face again
thinks it might just be the last time
everyday his courage slips alittle more
he knows soon it's gonna have to end
since she's gone and seen the one before
he'd been living in a memory till now
never wanted to face it until now
couldn't even say the name until now
cut his wrist and let the blood spill out
couldn't face it till now
shook her fathers hand good bye
kissed her mother on the face she started to cry
hate so strong it always showed
no one said it but he'd always know
blue flowers on her mattress are all that he sees now
a broken picture of her face that just won't fade
it's finally gonna fade now
cause he'd been living in a memory till now
never wanted to face it until now
couldn't even say the name until now
couldn't even say the name until now
never wanted to face it till now
morning comes slow when you don't know
if your gonna make it there so you bite your nails and pull your hair
you grind your teeth and man don't you do your share
it's a wicked addiction, pure friction
and the truth about your lies is their all just fiction
and now i know so i'm just gonna have to let you go
and it took you to show me how
that it takes two to bring each other down
you brought me down
day moves quick when you stick yourself sick
for an hour you float then it's all back down
you pass the others as your leaving town
and it's a crooked affliction your mind gets spinning
and your spine gets twisted
and everybody that you know is out to take everything you own
each other
night moves fast the shadows that you cast
run away from you
and everyone that you touch turns blue
and their all watching you
and it's a wicked addiction, pure friction
and the truth about your lies
is their all just fiction and now i know
so i'm gonna have to let you go
and it's a wicked addiction pure friction
Morning comes slow when you don't know

and its a let down how you fell apart so fast
so you hold on think your gonna finally get your way
and then you shut down shut it down again and
I won't breath until you cave into to me
I won't leave this place now
plant my feet on your ground
wipe your mind i'll wash my hands
memories of enemies are all you have
I won't breath until you cave into to me
I won't leave this place now
plant my feet until you cave into me
nothing left until you:come back down
come back
wish i simplified it for myself
then i could deny when it comes down
guess i should have lived this misery
and kept everything else a mystery
want to cut my eyes out for you now
so I can never see another face
what an innocent disgrace
what if I had never bothered to find out what I'd lose
guess I should have kept it to myself
guess I should have put it on a shelf
want to cut my eyes out for you now
so I can never see another face
never look into those eyes again
I'll always be an innocent disgrace
holding you hold it in
so long it finally weighed you down
an now i don't believe that you couldn't see it
couldn't see a thing
never look into those eyes again
i'll never look into those eyes again
never look into those eyes again
words are running out again
words are pouring down your face like tears
and every little thing that you feel is running down
from your wicked little mouth again
pain that you feel comes from the way that you've been living easy
and every little thing that you feel comes running down
from your wicked little mouth again
wicked little mouth again
here it comes again
and the words are running down here they come again
words are pouring down your face like tears
and every little thing that you feel comes running down
all along put the blame on you devil in the mirror
don't know who i am
hardened by time a little less than you
detrimental fear you were once to me

tell me don't you feel it
are you wounded too

thinking about all that was said i went mad and burned you out
hardened by time a little less than you
and now i finally see it

tell me don't you see it
and all along all i wanted was you
tell me don't you feel it
was the one that i wanted in you
tell me don't you feel it
all along all i wanted was you
wonder are you wounded too
hardened by time a little less than you
I got no right hand, or bruise when my skin is gone
What about you did you get it enough
What about me can I give you the stuff
What about you did you want it enough
What about me can I get you the stuff
Which I can get you
One damn bite along, I'm with you, Time and gone
One damn look at you, Time to bite, Come along
When my line is drawn
And my head is clear
With you holding on
I will leave you hear
I got my left hand, I leave when my day is off
I got no right man, a bruise where your skin is soft
What about you did you get it enough
What about me can I give you the stuff
What about you did you want it enough
What about me can I get you the stuff
Which I can get you
One damn bite along, I'm with you. Time and gone
One damn look at you, Time to bite, Come along
Now my blood is drawn
And my sweat is clear
Milky on my gums
I will leave you here
I got my left hand, I use when my day is long
I got no right man, a bruise where your skin is
One damn bite along
One damn look at you
One damn bite along, I'm with you, Time and gone
One damn look at you, Time to bite, Come along
Now my blood is drawn
And my sweat is clear
Milky on my gums
I will leave you here
