It's hard when no one loves you.
I'm on the soul of every role,
Of every place you're taking
Until I'm done, just stay for fun.
Tomorrow's breaking even.
Too late never say
Tomorrow's is another day
One love, I'm one away.
I never thought that
I'd hear heaven say
Inside I know the way.
She fell like fire, I forgot to play.
One love I'm one away.
I never thought
I'd hear heaven say.
heaven say...
We've lost our chance,
Our one last dance.
Them circumstances fail us.
We'd wait too long.
They found our song.
Seems like time's against us.
Maybe it's me I'm overboard
I'm screaming for no reason.
But life is light
Love like a fight.
Today we're breaking even.
Oooh yeah.
Too late, Never say
Tomorrow is another day.
One love. I'm one away.
I never thought that I'd hear heaven say.
Inside I know the way she fell like fire.
I forgot to play
One love I'm one away.
I never thought I'd hear heaven say.
Everyone here thinks
I'm crazy.
Seems like most of us look lazy.
Waiting 'round here is amazing.
Everyone runs like it's hazy.
Too late.Never say,
Tommorow is another day.
One love I'm one.
I never thought that I'd hear heaven say.
Inside I know the way.
She fell like fire.
I forgot to play.
One love I'm one away.
I never thought I'd hear heaven say.
Too late never say.
Tomorrow is another day,
One love I'm one away

Can't stand breathing this cold stale air.
Can't stand to stand seeming and the caring
I was once a child like you see i'm
Free and beautiful careless and oh oh oh oh
So forget what I said about me
And tomorrow I'm on top of the world
And I don't need your sorrow
It's all me can't you see
Where I bleed
We're all human and you know
Where I go for how long and how low
How long how low
Maybe reaching is that stronger.
Maybe waiting seems that longer.
Simple little truns don't faze me.
Simple little words Amaze me.
So forget what I said about me
and tomorrow I'm on top of this world
And I don't need your sorrow.
It's all me can you see where I bleed
We're all human.
And you know where i go for how long and how low.
How long and how low.
Sp step right up it's for free.
So step right up defay me.
So step right up it's for free.
So step right up defay me.
So forget what I said about me
and tomorrow I'm on top of this world
And I don't need your sorrow.
It's all me can you see where I bleed.
We're all human and you know
where I go for how long and how low.
ohhh
So forget what I said about me
And Tomorrow I'm on top of this world
and I don't need your sorrow.
We're all human and you know
Where I go for how long and how low.
How long how low
How long how low.
i got something to tell you
about a reason for breathing
about a song
and a season
when my father's coming home
nobody said it was easy
nobody said you could please me
but then you looked down
with your big brown eyes
and your loving arms
and i wanted to tell you
i loved you
how hard i'm falling for you
you left me standing here
out on my own
and you loved me incompletely
and now i'm falling freely
you left me here
but i am not alone
you're falling faster than angels
your smiling higher than heaven
you only wish that on top of the world
you had one more swimming pool
they're kicking you all around
you never tasted so much ground
you only wish that for one more day
you're the coolest guy in school
and i wanted to tell you
i loved you
how hard i'm falling for you
you left me standing here
out on my own
and you loved me incompletely
and now i'm falling freely
you left me here
but i am not alone
when i wake
there's so much trouble
morning comes and makes me double
when i'm breaking
there's no time to run
so im on my way to me
i need something to belive in,
i need something to feel,
i need something to rely on,
i need something real.
i won't slit another neck here
i won't play your little games
inside of me is hollow
and it's driving me insane
if you understand what it means to fly
when you feel this way
and you understand what it means to cry
when you feel alone,
like me
alone like me
alone like me
alone like me
i don't care about your army
i don't care about what you've got
you can come at me with everything
i got nothing left to lose
and inside of me is hollow
full of petty pointless rhymes
I’m so bare on he inside
and i'm running out of time
and if i apologize once more
i would hate, myself
if you understand what it means to cry
when you feel, alone
like me
alone like me
alone like me
they put us to work
the anvilbrigade
the angels lost track when
we started to fade
believing is seeing you're seeming okay
it seems we lose our love
at the end of the rain
more than a fighting chance i've got
seems like i'm losing out a lot
maybe the sun still knows my name
i'll walk on my own to feet again
i'm just a clean cut individual
this ain't no second class residual
and from the bottom
i can feel you screaming
you turn your face to the rain
i see you smiling again
maybe there'll be no more pain
the day we all go insane
they made us create they made us
run farther they made us believe there
was no one to bother
it feels like i'm old
it seems like i'm colder
she came in a box i loved
and i sold her
more than a fighting chance i've got
seems like i'm losing out a lot
maybe the sun still knows my name
i'll walk on my own to feet again
my body and brain this life i lead
belongs to you i turn my
face to the rain and see you smiling again
maybe there'll be no more pain the
day we all go insane
You'll Be Laughing When I'm Gone
You'll Be Smiling Before Long
I Sold You All That You Can Hold
My Love Struck Story's Getting Old
Well You Said Wait One More Day
So I Lied And Said Okay
Turn Tuck Tailed And Run
Getting There Is Half The Fun
You'll Be Laughing When I'm Gone
You'll Be Smiling Before Long
I Sold You All That You Can Hold
My Sidewalk Story's Getting Old
Well You Said Wait One More Day
So I Lied And Said Okay
Turn Tuck Tailed And Run
Getting There Is Half The Fun
So You Took All I Had
Made Me Smile, Made Me Run
Well You Break All My Dreams
Then You Sit, Hear Me Scream!
Will I Make You
Will I Make You
Will I Make You
Make You, Make You, Make You
Whoa Make You
Make You, Make You Run
Run I Will Make Ya
Run I Will Make Ya
Run I Will Make Ya
Pay Me For It
Run I Will Make Ya
Run I Will Make Ya
Run I Will Make Ya
Pay Me For It
Run I Will Make Ya
Run I Will Make Ya
Run I Will Make Ya
Make Me Fall And
Run I Will Make Ya
Run I Will Make Ya
Run I Will Make Ya
Long steady road, oh travel be kind.
I'm searching for some peace of mind.
The home that you know,
a home left behind.
Oh trouble don't trouble this time.
And baby don't look back, odds don't stack,
they just crumble down, around you.
You gotta go away if you wanna come back.
I won't crack, I can't make a sound without you.
And even if it sounds crazy darling, I won't let you go.
And even if it don't stop raining darling, I won't let you go.
And even if the world is burning darling, I won't let you go.
And even if it sounds crazy darling, I won't let you go.
Know your way down, your music, your town,
You're never walking alone.
A storm that won't wait, a heart that won't break.
Your mountains ain't made out of stone
And baby don't look back, odds don't stack,
they just crumble down, around you.
You gotta go away if you wanna come back.
I won't crack, I can't make a sound without you.
And even if it sounds crazy darling, I won't let you go.
And even if it don't stop raining darling, I won't let you go.
And even if the world is burning darling, I won't let you go.
And even if it sounds crazy darling, I won't let you go.
So baby don't look back, odds don't stack,
They just crumble down, around you.
You gotta go away if you wanna come back.
I won't crack, I can't make a sound without you.
And even if it sounds crazy darling, I won't let you go.
And even if it don't stop raining darling, I won't let you go.
And even if the world is burning darling, I won't let you go.
And even if it sounds crazy darling, I won't let you go.
No I can't no I never will never ever would,
No I never could let you go,
No I just can't no I never will never ever would,
No I never could let you go.
No I just can't no I never will never ever would,
No I never could let you go.
No I just can't no I never will never ever would,
IF I’M YOUNG AND STUPID
AT LEAST I’M DOING IT WHILE
I’M YOUNG AND STUPID
AND NOT WHEN ITS OUT OF STYLE
IF I’M GOING NOWHERE
AT LEAST I’M GOING WHEN
THERE ISN’T NOWHERE
NOWHERE THAT I SHOULD HAVE BEEN
WE MIGHT FALL APART
IF WE FOLLOW OUR HEARTS
BUT IN THE END YOU KNOW WE’LL STAY TRUE
IF WE CARRY ON
IF WE PLAY ALONG
YOU CAN’T SAY WE’RE WRONG
YOU CAN’T SAY SO LONG
AT LEAST WE DID IT OUR WAY
AND LEARNED THE HARD WAY
IT’S ALL THAT THESE SCARS SAY
AT LEAST WE DID IT OUR WAY
IF I’M YOUNG AND USELESS
AT LEAST I’M DOING IT HOW
ONLY THE USELESS
COULD GET AWAY WITH IT NOW
IF I’M FUCKING CRAZY
I GUESS THAT I’M BOUND TO LEARN
LIKE ONLY THE CRAZY
CAN PLAY WITH FIRE AND BURN
WE MIGHT FALL APART
IF WE FOLLOW OUR HEARTS
BUT IN THE END YOU KNOW WE’LL STAY TRUE
IF WE CARRY ON
IF WE PLAY ALONG
YOU CAN’T SAY WE’RE WRONG
YOU CAN’T SAY SO LONG
AT LEAST WE DID IT OUR WAY
AND LEARNED THE HARD WAY
IT’S ALL THAT THESE SCARS SAY
AT LEAST WE DID IT OUR WAY
DON’T EVER MAKE EXCUSES OR PUNCH THE CLOCK
CAUSE THAT’S HOW SUCKERS ARE MADE, AND YOUR DREAMS FADE
DON’T EVER HIDE YOUR BRUISES OR SELL YOUR STOCK
CAUSE THAT’S HOW BROTHERS GET PAID, AND MEN GET MADE
IF WE CARRY ON
IF WE PLAY ALONG
YOU CAN’T SAY WE’RE WRONG
YOU CAN’T SAY SO LONG
AT LEAST WE DID IT OUR WAY
AND LEARNED THE HARD WAY
IT’S ALL THAT THESE SCARS SAY
IF WE CARRY ON
IF WE PLAY ALONG
YOU CAN’T SAY WE’RE WRONG
YOU CAN’T SAY SO LONG
AT LEAST WE DID IT OUR WAY
AND LEARNED THE HARD WAY
ITS ALL THAT THESE SCARS SAY
WE MIGHT HAVE LEARNED THE HARD WAY
WE MIGHT HAVE LEARNED THE HARD WAY
AT LEAST WE DID IT OUR WAY

I'm so cold and far away from home
You're so tired and so damn alone
It's darker and much harder to be me
So far away from my reality
I hate the way you look, I'm looking back
I hate the way I look, you're looking too
I think maybe I'm just falling, falling, falling
And you kiss me like you know inside of me (let me lead you, let me follow)
And you watch me fight my own insanity (let me lead you, let me follow)
And I feel like I'm a villain Jesus said would never ever leave us
And I'm stronger now than I ever was before
You think I never could have seen it all
It seems you want me just to watch me fall
Your fingers and your lips are beautiful
Your fingers and your lips are killing me
I hate the way you look, I'm looking back
I hate the way I look, you're looking too
I think maybe I'm just falling, falling, falling
And you kiss me like you know inside of me (let me lead you, let me follow)
And you watch me fight my own insanity (let me lead you, let me follow)
And I feel like I'm a villain Jesus said would never ever leave us
And I'm stronger now than I ever was before
Than I was before
I'm stronger than I've ever been
I'm stronger than before
But you kiss me like you know it all
You know it all
And you kiss me like you know inside of me
And you watch me fight my own insanity
And I feel like I'm a villain Jesus said would never ever leave us
And I feel like I'm a villain Jesus said would never ever leave us
And I'm stronger now than I ever was before
Some say love is not for sinners
I believe that isn't true
'Cause when I was finished sinning
Love came down and showed me you
And you told me how to get there
So I tried to find a way
Then I ran into your garden
But I tripped out the gate
I tripped out the gate
What are you doing to me?
I'm so into you and the hardest part is
Knowing that I'll never follow through
You're slowly killing me and I wish it wasn't true
'Cause I'm so into you, 'cause I'm so into you
Like a ton of bricks, it hit me
And woke me from this dream
No matter how hard I tried to wash my hands
I could never get 'em clean
I could never get 'em clean
What are you doing to me?
I'm so into you and the hardest part is
Knowing that I'll never follow through
You're slowly killing me and I wish it wasn't true
'Cause I'm so into you
Can you hear me?
'Cause I can't change what I'll always be
What are you doing to me?
I'm so into you and the hardest part is
Knowing that I'll never follow through
You're slowly killing me and I wish it wasn't true
'Cause I'm so into you, I'm so into you
She said, "Baby, don't leave.
Be home, stay close, be close to me.
Boy, don't be gone. Boy, don't be gone."
He said, "Baby, you know,
I gotta run. I gotta go.
I won't be long. Girl, I won't be long."
She said, "Boy don't you flirt
and, baby, please just don't get hurt
and if you feel alone, then here, take my shirt."
He said, "Forever, girl. I know you hate the weather, girl.
So, maybe you should hold onto my sweater, girl."
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
She ran, picked up the phone,
said, "Babe, I miss you. Come back home.
It can't be long. Boy, it can't be long."
He said, "I hate this place.
I miss your smile. I miss your face.
I wrote a song. Girl, I wrote a song."
She said, "You make me better, boy.
I just mailed you a letter, boy
and, oh, so you know, I'm still in your sweater, boy."
He said, "Girl, don't be hurt.
I've sweat a lot and smell of dirt,
But I think I'd feel naked without your shirt."
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
He said, "You're looking great.
I'm home. I'm back. I couldn't wait.
Girl, way too long. That was way too long."
She said, "Get over here.
I crave you close. I need you near.
Now play that song. Boy, play me our song."
He said, "Back to forever, girl.
I hope you endured the weather, girl.
Now all I wanna do is get you outta that sweater, girl."
She said, "I love the way you flirt.
I'm so glad you didn't get hurt.

Tight Rope Walking ain't That Hard
After Slamming Back A Few
You're Laughing Now But It ain't That Funny
When They Get Through With You
Tell me we're all about failing and being wrong
Tell me I'll never let go of you, I will never give or take you for a ride
And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
And I can't let myself go, waiting for you, waiting for you
And I can't feel myself crying
Standing closer ain't that bad
With your hands upon your face
You look too far I looked much harder
And they lost all sense of trace
Me and draw up colour me lost and found
Tear me down lift me up you make me feel so god damn colder than you're bleeding eyes
And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
And I can't let myself go, waiting for you, waiting for you
And I can't feel myself crying
If I Never Knew You
I'd Never Love You
If I Never Loved You
Then I Wouldn't Cry
If I Never Hold You
Then I'll never know you
If Loving Meant Living
Then I Wouldn't Die
And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
And I can't let myself go, waiting for you, waiting for you
And I can't feel myself crying
And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
And I can't hear myself dream (If Loving Meant Living, Then I Wouldn't Die)
And I can't hear myself scream (If I Never Loved You, I Wouldn't Cry)
Got in a street fight,
With the I.R.S and I'm alright,
Took one to the chest but I'm fine,
It's all coming up roses.
Call me 'The White Guy With A Real Bad Case Of That Pink Eye'
But it's just a reflection of roses,
It's all coming up roses.
And God damn it if it all works out,
And God forbid that it should all work out, out, out, out
I'm tired of this
What you see is
What I have never tried to be
Just let me breathe
Just take me anywhere but here
Take me anywhere but here
My fifteen minutes of fame are done,
And I don't care
I was just having more fun than you,
And I didn't ask for it anyways.
Now I'm on T.V, guess that's not cool,
Now I'm a sellout,
But I'm not the only one with name brand shoes on,
You fucking moron.
And God damn it if it all works out,
And God forbid that it should all work out, out, out, out
I'm tired of this
What you see is
What I have never tried to be
Just let me breathe
Just take me anywhere but here
It's all coming up roses
Gimme all you got
Just take your shot
You come off swinging like a girl
Buy me an ocean
To take me anywhere but here
Take me anywhere but here
I will not go back
So buy me the ocean
And paint it with pretty stars
And sell me to something
Take me anywhere but here
I'm tired of this
What you see is
What I have never tried to be
Just let me breathe
Just take me anywhere but here
It's all coming up roses
Gimme all you got
Just take your shot
You come off swinging like a girl
Buy me an ocean
To take me anywhere but here
Take me anywhere but here now take me,
Anywhere but here now take me,
Anywhere but here now take me,
Anywhere but here
WIND BLOW, RAIN FALL
WE'VE FACED IT ALL
THERE'S STILL SOME USE IN TRYING
HANDS UP, HEADS DOWN
BABY IF YOU THINK THERE'S NO WAY OUT
SOMEWHERE THE SUN'S STILL SHINNING
DARK SKIES TELL NO LIES
LIKE YOUR STORMY EYES
IF IT'S COLD TONIGHT
I'M HERE NOW
CHORUS:
IT'S STORMY OUT, SO BABY LET ME IN
I CAN HELP I KNOW I CAN
TOGETHER WE'RE NEVER GONNA FALL
IT'S STORMY NOW, BUT THE SUN'S GONNA SHINE AGAIN
EVEN THE WORST STORMS GOTTA END
WE'RE BETTER IF WE WEATHER IT OUT (YEAH)
TOGETHER WE'RE NEVER GONNA FALL
BOOM, CRASH
ALL NIGHT, YOU SCREAM, WE FIGHT
THESE WORDS THEY STRIKE LIKE LIGHTNING
DARK SKIES TELL NO LIES
LIKE YOUR STORMY EYES
IF IT'S COLD TONIGHT
I'M HERE NOW
CHORUS X 2
TOGETHER WE'RE NEVER GONNA FALL
IT'S STORMY NOW
WHEN YOU BREAKDOWN, WHEN YOU CAN'T TAKE IT ALL
I've heard this all before
Don't waste my time, don't break my balls, get out my door.
You wont see me caving in
It's time I stand and show you what's making me spin
So if you, you peel away the skin
You'll find the strong survive they can't always win
I'll stand up, to the shallow end
You won't see me drown when I sink or swim
Don't spell this out in tears
Don't play those games or say these names and live your fears
I told you no means no
You had your chance, you broke my heart, its time to go
So if you, you peel away the skin
You'll find the strong survive they can't always win
I'll stand up, to the shallow end
You won't see me drown when I sink or swim
You won't see me drown when I sink or swim
So if you, you peel away the skin
You'll find the strong survive they can't always win
I'll stand up, to the shallow end
You won't see me drown when I sink or swim
Our loves come to a bitter end
I hope you drown when you sink or swim
I hope you drown when you sink or swim
Sink or swim
See I could spend forever here and never wanna stop
'Cause baby you are making my day
Dont tell me what it takes my dear to keep you in one spot
I'm crazy good at finding a way
For all of my days I'll be brave I'll be stronger
And always keep a hand on my pride
If I build it with care it will last that much longer
I'll always give you somewhere to hide
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
I'll make a good day
Out of the pain
And if you got a long way down
I'll feel the same
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
So let me kiss you head to toe
Upon this tabletop
'Cause baby you can have it your way
I'll keep you safe and warm you know im never gunna stop
'Cause babe I think we'll make it someday
For all of my days
I'll be happy to hold you
And always go that extra mile
If I build it with care
I'll be there like I told you
I'll always give you reason to smile
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
I'll make a good day
Out of the pain
If you got a long way down
I'll feel the same
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
When I get you alone
Darling you satisfy me
I'm always at home
When it's you standing by me
Don't give this away
Baby please stay
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
I'll make a good day
Out of the pain
And if you got a long way down
I'll feel the same
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
And if you've got a long way down
I feel the same
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
I'll give you shelter
[Verse 1:]
We started out OK,
But you threw it all away,
My God what's going on in your head,
You made a mess before,
I kept coming back for more,
I'm good and done,
We're over and dead,
[Chorus:]
Ah yes I'm leaving you it's obvious
Hey, hey, hey, hey
So wipe that stupid look right off of your face,
Get out of my way,
Why did she say,
She's so so sorry,
Just get out of my way,
Why did she say,
She's so so sorry,
She said I,
Want to start over today,
Take me back again,
Get out of my way,
Why did she say,
She's so so sorry,
[Verse 2:]
You try to shift the blame,
My God are you insane,
I'm sorry babe is all you can say,
You've made a mess before,
I kept coming back for more,
I never thought you'd end it this way,
[Chorus:]
Ah yes I'm leaving you it's obvious
Hey, hey, hey, hey
So wipe that stupid look right off of your face
Get out of my way,
Why did she say,
She's so so sorry,
Just get out of my way,
Why did she say,
She's so so sorry,
She said I,
Want to start over today,
Take me back again,
Get out of my way,
Why did she say,
She's so so sorry,
[Bridge:]
And that's all that I can say,
If you've never been let down,
Then this story's far from over,
Everything comes back around,
So be careful what you say,
What goes up's got to come down,
Don't be taken back,
It's all because of you,
[Chorus:]
Get out of my way,
Why did she say,
She's so so sorry,
Just get out of my way,
Why did she say,
She's so so sorry,
She said I,
Want to start over today,
Take me back again,
Get out of my way,
Why did she say,
She's so so sorry,
[Verse 3:]
Never again,
Never again,
What did she say,
Out of my way,
What'd I tell her,
What'd I tell her,
What did she say,
Out of my way!
What'd I tell her,
What'd I tell her,
Baby be mine
'Cause even God knows
Girl if you want it
You got it you'll never let it go
You're all that I want
You heard it all before
'Cause if you take it
I'm waiting outside of your door
Theres no rest for
The reckless who run into love
Will you scream when you're alone
Even the beautiful lose control
Will you scream when you're alone
I got a burning need to know, know, know
I can't explain my bad behavior
And Baby you're my savior
And I don't wanna end up alone
Will you scream when you let go
Even the beautiful, the beautiful
Lose control
Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohhhh Nah-nah-nah-nah-nahh
Baby you're so right, righteous
Anticipating heartache
Even before the first kiss
And if you'd have good
You're gonna love this
From sink to sinner
A winner that you don't wanna miss
The-the-there's no rest for
The reckless who run into love
Will you scream when you're alone
Even the beautiful lose control
Will you scream when you're alone
I got a burnin' need to know, know, know
I can't explain my bad behavior
And baby you're my savior
And I don't wanna end up alone
Will you scream when you let go
Even the beautiful, the beautiful
Lose control
All the boys in the back
You keep believin'
No waaay, means no howww
All the girls in the front
You keep screamin'
Some waaay, means somehowww
All the girls in the front
You keep screamin', you keep screamin
(Will you scream when you're alone)
Even the beautiful lose control
Will you scream when you're alone
Even a miracle happens to slow
No, No
I can't explain my bad behavior
And baby you're my savior
And I don't wanna end up alone
Will you scream when you let go
Even the beautiful, the beautiful
Lose control
At all the boys in the back
You keep screamin'
(Even the beautiful lose control)
At all the girls in the front
You keep screamin'
Believe me it's easy to scream
When you're dreaming
And you wonder what's under your bed
When you're sleeping
They beat you and blame you
For all that you went through
But hey, it's just another Saturday
It's only just another Saturday
I love you, I need you
Like a thousand times before
Wonder why I hate you?
But I'll scream and ask for more
I only wanted your attention
At least the hate is some connection
But hey, it's just another Saturday
Believe me it's easy
To live between the lines
When mommy said sorry
Over a thousand times
You're tied up, you're cried out
You gotta get outta here
But hey, it's just another Saturday
It's only just another Saturday
I love you, I need you
Like a thousand times before
Wonder why I hate you?
But I scream and ask for more
I only wanted your attention
At least the hate is some connection
And if I feel then I need
If I love then I'm free, then I'm free
You made a mess of me
You made a mess of me
I love you, I need you
Like a thousand times before
Wonder why I hate you?
But I scream and ask for more
I only wanted your attention
At least the hate is some connection
But hey, it's just another Saturday, another Saturday
It's only just another Saturday
Another Saturday and I'm free
Falling a thousand feet per second, you still take me by surprise
I just know we can't be over, I can see it in your eyes
Making every kind of silence, takes a lot to realize
It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall, even if you said I was wrong
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
Making every kind of silence, it takes a lot to realize
It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall, even if you said I wrong
I know that I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
When you're caught in a lie and you've got nothing to hide
When you've got nowhere to run and you've got nothing inside
It tears right through me, you thought that you knew me
You thought that you knew
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my, just myself
Just myself, myself, just myself
OH OH one life
OH OH one life

Stayed awake all night tossin', turnin'
Now my blood shot eyes are burnin'
Workin' out why this ain't workin'
Fight after fight after fight
And now it's killin' me
You were too busy to believe in
All the run away dreams I was dreamin'
Time to pack up and go I'm leavin'
Fight after fight after fight
And now I gotta be
On My Own
And living in a world alone
Gets better every day
That I don't have to say I'm sorry I'm coming home
I'm gonna make it on my own
I'll always take the harder road
Gets better every day
That I don't have to say I'm sorry I'm coming home
How'd you end up oh so jaded?
Cynical and so sedated
Can't live in this world you created
Day after day after day
And now I gotta be
On My Own
And living in a world alone
Gets better every day
That I don't have to say I'm sorry I'm coming home
I'm gonna make it on my own
I'll always take the harder road
Gets better every day
That I don't have to say I'm sorry I'm coming home
You will always be the lonely one
You will always try to swallow the Sun
Just remember you could never make it rain on everyone
On my own
And living in a world alone
Gets better every day
Cause I don't have to say
And now you're killin' me
On My Own
And living in a world alone
Gets better every day
That I don't have to say I'm sorry I'm coming home
I'm gonna make it on my own
I'll always take the harder road
Gets better every day
That I don't have to say I'm sorry I'm coming home
I'll make it on my own
I'm sorry I won't be coming home
I'll make it on my own
I'm sorry I won't be coming home
I'll make it on my own
I'm sorry I won't be coming home
I'll make it on my own
Don't believe everything happiness says
Nothing feels better than hiding these days
We bury our fears in the drinks, in these tears
For the days we believed we could fly
Call up your brothers and sisters and friends
We'll go back to the place where the night never ends
We'll remember the fires, the burning car tires
Boy, how in the hell did we get here?
So why don't you meet me down behind the old school?
We'll waste away the weekend with perfect regard for how
Cavalier we used to be, that beautiful insanity
The apathy's surrounding me
Don't close your eyes or we'll fade away
Over and over and over again
We sat down for a minute grew up into men
Now we're putting out fires and changing car tires
Man, how in hell did we get here?
So why don't you meet me down behind the old school?
We'll waste away the weekend with perfect regard for how
Cavalier we used to be, that beautiful insanity
The apathy's surrounding me
Don't close your eyes or we'll fade away this time
And we'll never get back what we gave away
When we still have that fire in our eyes
Don't believe everything happiness says
Nothings as real as our old reckless ways
When we drink by the fires, the burning car tires
Bad girls and good liars, the dreams we'd conspire
The days we went crazy, the nights wild and hazy
Man, how in the hell did we get here?
So why don't you meet me down behind the old school?
We'll waste away the weekend with perfect regard for how
Cavalier we used to be, that beautiful insanity
The apathy's surrounding me
Don't close your eyes or we'll fade away
Why don't you meet me down behind the old school?
We'll waste away the weekend with perfect regard for how
Cavalier we used to be, that beautiful insanity
The apathy's surrounding me
Hoping I can run today and get away faster
Than ever from here
Another night and who can say if leaving is better
Than living in fear
Here's to all the broken hearts tonight
Here's to all the "fall-a-parts" tonight
Here's to every girl and boy who lost their joy
They let it get away
You know it's never too late
Get up and start all over again
You know it's never too late
There's got to be a better way
Don't settle for the cold and rain
It's not too late to start again
To find a way to smile and never let it get away
It's been too long and we've been down and out without laughter
No smiling just tears
We're tired of falling down and being such a disaster
We've been here for years
Here's to all the broken hearts tonight
Here's to all the "fall-a-parts" tonight
Here's to every girl and boy who lost their joy
They let it get away
You know it's never too late
Get up and start all over again
You know it's never too late
There's got to be a better way
Don't settle for the cold and rain
It's not too late to start again
To find a way to smile and never let it get away
I'm gone, I'm gone
There's got to be a better way, I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone
There's got to be a better way, I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone
There's got to be a better way, I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone
There's got to be a better way, I'm gone
You know it's never too late
(I'm gone, I'm gone)
You know it's never too late
(There's got to be a better way, I'm gone)
You know it's never too late
(I'm gone, I'm gone)
You know it's never too late
(There's got to be a better way, I'm gone)
You know it's never too late
(I'm gone, I'm gone)
Get up and start over again
(There's got to be a better way, I'm gone)
You know it's never too late
(I'm gone, I'm gone)
You know it's never too late
The has been high school hero
He's first in line in his whole mind and doesn't care about the rest
A handsome half wit zero
He'll be your friend until the end if you're the coolest and the best
He falls in love with his reflection in the glass
He can't resist who's staring back
He makes a case
That all you've ever needed is a pretty face
But the bottom line about it is a 'never was' is all he'll ever be
He can't resist the paranoid delusions of a narcissist
It doesn't matter anyways cause he's a self fulfilling prophesy
Of make believe
She's a suburban princess
She's had it all since she was small and sucking on a silver spoon
Another gold card purchase
This daddy's girl thinks the whole world revolves around her like the moon
Each day's a film premiere where all the boys will stare
She pretends she doesn't care
She makes a case
That all you've ever needed is a pretty face
But the bottom line about it is a 'never was' is all she'll ever be
She can't resist the paranoid delusions of a narcissist
It doesn't matter anyways cause she's a self fulfilling prophesy
Of make believe
Of make believe
Of make believe
And on the day he met her
The high pretension of their love connection all but sealed the deal
Happily ever after who better for each other than another candidate to
Make a case
That all they've ever needed is a pretty face
But the bottom line about it is a 'never was' is all they'll ever be
They can't resist the paranoid delusions of a narcissist
But they're together anyways and share their self obsessed reality
We can't resist the paranoid delusions of a narcissist
It doesn't matter anyway cause we're a self fulfilling prophecies
Of make believe
Of make believe
Of make believe
Like the time we spent most everyday
And the plans we make to runaway
You and I had a dream
It was us against them back then
Now I still recall our first big fight
When you bailed me out of jail that night
You and I had a dream
It was us against them back then
So can I be any stronger
If tonight goes any longer
Cause I will not just wait around for you
To break my heart and run away
If there's nothing I cant say
To make you stay with me
So don't forget to just lose my number
Nothing matters
So aside from the pain
This is all you get
And for me to believe I could just forget
You and I had a dream
It was us against them back then
So can I be any stronger
If tonight goes any longer
Cause I will not just wait around for you
To break my heart and run away
If there's nothing I cant say
To make you stay with me
So don't forget to just lose my number
Nothing matters
And this is all that I can do
To stay away from you
So don't forget to lose my number
Nothing matters
And I never thought it would be you
To tear my god damn heart into two
If there's nothing I cant say
To make you stay with me
So don't forget to lose my number
Nothing matters
And this is all I can do
To stay away from you
So don't forget to lose my number
Nothing matters
(Lose my number, nothing matters)
Nothing matters
(Don't forget to lose my number, nothing matters)
Nothing matters
(Don't forget to lose my number, nothing matters)
Nothing matters
(Don't forget to lose my number, nothing matters)
Took a long hard look at my life.
Lost my way while I was fighting the time.
A big black cloud, stormy sky
Followed me while I was living a lie.
So heartless, so selfish, so in darkness,
When all your nights are starless,
You're runnin' outta hope.
But I found the strength inside to see,
Found the better part of me,
And I'll never let it go.
I've come a long long way,
Made a lot of mistakes.
But I'm breathin', breathin',
That's right and I mean it, mean it.
This time I'm a little run down,
I've been living out loud.
I can beat it, beat it,
That's right 'cause I'm feeling, feeling.
Invincible,
woah oh-oh-oh-oh. [x3]
When you're gone for a day on your own,
Tear your heart out just to find your way home.
I've been so high, I've sunk so low,
I've come so far with nothing to show
For it mistaken, I got so good at taking,
But now I'm tired of faking.
This story's getting old.
But I found the strength inside to see,
Found the better part of me,
And I'll never let it go.
I've come a long long way,
Made a lot of mistakes.
But I'm breathin', breathin',
That's right and I mean it, mean it.
This time I'm a little run down,
I've been living out loud.
I can beat it, beat it,
That's right 'cause I'm feeling, feeling.
Invincible,
woah-oh-oh-oh-oh. [x3]
Invincible.
I'm not the only one,
To crash into the sun and live to fight another day.
Like a super nova, that old life is over.
I'm here to stay.
Now I'm gonna be,
Invincible.
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh [x3]
Invincible.
I've come a long, long way,
Made a lot of mistakes,
But I'm breathin', breathin',
That's right and I mean it, mean it.
This time I'm a little run down,
I've been living out loud.
I can beat it, beat it,
That's right 'cause I'm feeling, feeling,
Invincible.
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh [x3]
Invincible.
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh [x3]
I see it in the way you'd do
When no one else could ever get through
Holding back 'til I come around
Time and time again you wait for me to come in
And did you really look my way?
There's not a lot of love these days
I would never, ever let you down
If I was running backwards in full time
So I can, and I will
And you'll see your hero come running
Over and over tonight
And I do wanna love you
(See me running back and)
And I do wanna try
(Never wanna see you cry)
If falling for you, girl, is crazy,
Then I'm going out of my mind
So hold back your tears this time
Me, I'm used to being tired and bloody
But you believed that I could be somebody
You put your world on hold for me
Gave away to follow failure through the fire
So I can, and I will
And you'll see your hero come running
Over and over tonight
And I do wanna love you
(See me running back and)
And I do wanna try
(Never wanna see you cry)
If falling for you, girl, is crazy
Then I'm going out of my mind
So hold back your tears this time
What if I never let you down
And said sorry for the nights I can't remember ?
What if I never said to you I would try?
And I do wanna love you
(See me running back and)
And I do wanna try
If falling for you, girl, is crazy
Then I'm going out of my mind
So hold back your tears this time, yeah
And I do wanna love you
(See me running back and)
And I do wanna try
(Never wanna see you cry)
If falling for you, girl, is crazy
Then I'm going out of my mind
So hold back your tears this time, time, time, time, time, time, time
This time, time, time, time, time, time, time
Always walking straight home like the other good girls do
Be careful what you wish for, they could never be like you
It's not the right thing baby but the right thing suits so you
Lets take the other road baby because it looks so good on you
Chorus: So hold on tight
It's gonna be a wild, wild, ride
And tonight, you won't need your wings to fly
'Cause angels got a lot to lose
So hang on tight
I'm gonna make you come to life
And when you're there
You won't need to say your prayers
'Cause heaven's gonna wait for you
All your golden crosses hanging by a single thread
Remember what you want and forget what the good book says
It's not the right thing baby but the right thing suits so few
Let's take the other road baby cause it looks so good on you
Chorus: So hold on tight
It's gonna be a wild, wild, ride
And tonight, you won't need your wings to fly
'Cause angels got a lot to lose
So hang on tight
I'm gonna make you come to life
And when you're there
You won't need to say your prayers
'Cause heaven's gonna wait for you
Only the good die young
How can it feel so real
And be so wrong
..so wrong
So hang on tight
I'm gonna make you come to life
And when you're there
You won't need to say your prayers
'Cause heaven's gonna wait for you
So hold on tight
It's gonna be a wild, wild ride
And tonight, you won't need your wings to fly
'Cause heaven's gonna wait for you (ohhh)
Heaven's gonna wait for you (ohhhh)
Just a little bit longer (ohhhh)
Heaven's gonna wait for you (ohhh)
Just a little bit longer (ohhhh)
Ahh-Yeah
Oh my God
Something is wrong
I'm floatin' down a river where I don't belong
With out you
'Cause if I fall
With out you
Now I see
It's all clear to me
I could do a lot of things, but I could never be
With out you
'Cause if I fall
With out you
And you pick me up when I am down
(Pick me up)
And you make me smile
So hands up
Take it all away
If I got you then I'll be ok
I know, now everybody say
If I got you I like it that way
Ohhh-ohh
Oh my God
Nothing is fine
I'll go a little crazy
'Cause I'm losin' my mind
With out you
'Cause if I fall
With out you
(If I fall)
Come what may
All I gotta say
I could have a lot of fun, but I don't wanna play
With out you
'Cause if I fall
With out you
You pick me up when I am down
(Pick me up now)
And you make me smile
So hands up
Take it all away
If I got you then I'll be ok
I know
Now everybody say
If I got you I like it that way
If I got you I like it
With out you
I don't got a reason
With out you
I don't got a soul
(I don't got a soul)
For all my days
I live to praise
You make me wanna
Scream and shout it out
It's all I gotta say
Ahhh-nahhh
Hands up
Take it all away
If I got you then I'll be ok
I know
Now everybody say
If I got you I like it that way
Hands up
Take it all away
If I got you then I'll be ok
I know
Now everybody say
If I got you I like it that way
If I got you then I'll be ok
Tell me what I've never been
Make me feel broken
And tell me what I should believe
I didn't know it was broken
And I'm gunnin' for you, I'm gunnin' for you
And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself
And I will find out that morning comes faster alone
I hate the way you look at me
As if I was broken
And the perfection of my frailty, yeah
Has been questioned and broken
And I'm gunnin' for you, I'm gunnin' for you
And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself
And I will find out that morning comes faster alone
And I feel like I'm fine today
I feel like I'm ready to take this on
And I'll fight you to the grave for it
I'll never let you take a part of me with you
And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself
And I will find out that morning comes faster alone
And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself
And I will find out that morning comes faster alone
The perfection of my frailty
Goodbye to your ideas about
The way things should have been
It was a nice try, that doesn't mean
That's gonna make me let you in
You're not crazy, this is not amazing
You are not a problem worthwhile saving
It could be worse, I could be you
I could be out of luck and that would never do
I'm liking my clothes, I'm safe in my shoes
I'm glad you're gone and I don't got a lot to lose
Everybody knows I'm not crazy, you are not amazing
This is not a problem, I'm just saying goodbye
Oh oh oh oh oh, woah-oh
So long to spending hours
Staying up until you call
You've never been wrong
That doesn't mean that you're never gonna fall
No I'm not crazy, this is not amazing
You are not a problem worthwhile saving
It could be worse, I could be you
I could be out of luck and that would never do
I'm liking my clothes, I'm safe in my shoes
I'm glad you're gone and I don't got a lot to lose
Everybody knows I'm not crazy, you are not amazing
This is not a problem, I'm just saying
And I don't really wanna know you played me
It doesn't make me any better if I'm caring at all
And I don't really wanna know you played me
You're not crazy, you are not amazing,
This is not a problem, I'm just saying goodbye
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, woah-oh
It could be worse, I could be you
I could be out of luck and that would never do
I'm liking my clothes, I'm safe in my shoes
I'm glad you're gone and I don't got a lot to lose
Everybody knows I'm not crazy, you are not amazing
This is not a problem, I'm just saying goodbye
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, woah-oh
When I saw you wave goodbye
It made me smile while it made me cry
I never thought I'd see the day
I never thought you'd walk a million miles away
But I know we all gotta grow so
These days everybody wants to find out how the story ends
So we say nothing is a possibility if you don't got your friends
And I know as time goes by we're never gonna pretend
'Cause you and me will always be friends
So if you're feeling all alone
Remember good times or remember home
And if you question all that you see
Remember that you always got a friend in me
'Cause I know we all gotta grow
These days everybody wants to find out how the story ends
So we say nothing is a possibility if you don't got your friends
And I know as time goes by we're never gonna pretend
'Cause you and me will always be friends
These days everybody wants to find out how the story ends
So we say nothing is a possibility if you don't got your friends
And I know as time goes you'll be fast if I'm slow and we'll find our tempo
'Cause we may never know how the story ends
But you and me will always be
These days everybody wants to find out how the story ends
So we say nothing is a possibility if you don't got your friends
And I know as time goes by we're never gonna pretend
'Cause you and me will always be friends
Yeah, you and me will always be friends
I see it in the way you would do
When no one else could ever get through
Holding back till I come around
Time and time again you wait for me to come in
And did you really look my way?
'Cause no one could have seen this coming
I would never let you down
If I was running backwards in full time
So I can and I will and you'll see
Your hero come running over and over tonight
And I do wanna love you
If you see me running back, and I do wanna try
'Cause if falling for you girl is crazy
Then I'm going out of my mind
So hold back your tears this time
Me, I'm used to being tired and bloody
But you believed that I could be somebody
You put your world on hold for me
Gave away to follow failure through the fire
I need you to know I will
Believe me, girl, I'm so tired of running
I just wanna hold your hand
Stare at you like you've got everything I need
And I can, so I will and you'll see
Your hero come running over and over tonight
And I do wanna love you and I do wanna try
'Cause if falling for you girl is crazy
Then I'm going out of my mind
So hold back your tears this time
What if I never said to you I was dynamite?
What if I never told you I'm afraid to cry?
What if I never let you down and said
I'm sorry for the nights I can't remember?
What if I never said to you I would try?
And I do wanna love you
See me running back and I do wanna try
Because if falling for you girl is crazy
Then I'm going out of my mind
So hold back your tears this time, yeah
And I do wanna love you and I do wanna try
Because if falling for you girl is crazy
Then I'm going out of my mind
So hold back your tears this time, yeah
Dear blank, I'm sorry, I blanked you're blank
But you'd understand if you knew how much beer that I drank
I know today is going too fucking slow
So take a number, get in line, I'll tell you all where to go
It's last call and here I am again in the hall
I guess nobody gets my jokes at all
It's no prize being me and getting to wise
They just make you turn around and go apologize
I don't wanna lose what I've got
But you'll never hear me say I'm sorry
No, I don't owe anything
To hell with 'I'm sorry', bombs away
No, I don't owe you anything
You're like a bullet to my
Brain, I'm numb, can't kill my fun
If you good and done
Then thank you just the same
'Cause I don't owe you anything
About now, you're thinking to yourself, just how
Did this jerk make it through school without ever getting plowed?
Wannabe, I see him all the time on TV
What makes this kamikaze think he's any better than me
I'll tell you though it's something that I've learned
You should know I'm so used of the phrase 'I told you so'
It's my brain, it may be certified insane
At least I'm not like all you whiners, man, you're all the same
I don't wanna lose what I've got
But you'll never hear me say I'm sorry
No, I don't owe anything
To hell with 'I'm sorry', bombs away
No, I don't owe you anything
You're like a bullet to my
Brain, I'm numb, can't kill my fun
If you good and done
Then thank you just the same
'Cause I don't owe you anything
I don't care if there's a time or a place, I'll be right there
Didn't anyone tell you?
I don't care if there's a will there's a way for me
Dear blank, I'm sorry, I blanked, you're blank
I know today is going so slow
No, I don't owe anything
To hell with 'I'm sorry', bombs away
No, I don't owe you anything
You're like a bullet to my
Brain, I'm numb, can't kill my fun
If you good and done
Then thank you just the same
She was a bottle blonde
She had her sevens on
When I think about it now
Just a cougar on the prowl
She was hotter than hell
Had me under a spell
Got the ass doing yoga
Didn't care that she's older
Got off the stage
Ended up at her place
We were burning up the bed
Fire needed to be fed
Morning sun hit her face
Maggie May showed her age
I remembered what my mamma said
Don't talk to strangers
Don't talk to strangers
Don't do all the thinking with your little head
Like mamma said
Like mamma said
My mamma said
Don't talk to strangers
Don't talk to strangers
Just wrap it up so you don't wind up dead
Like mamma said
Like mamma said
My mamma said
She likes them nice and young
She likes them fresh and hungry
With fire in her eyes
Let you try her on for size
Show you a trick or two
Teach you something new
Full of Bacardi and Botox
Almost 40 and so hot
but the light of the day
Has something different to say
My head started to spin
When I saw her son walking in
I bet he felt like a fool,
Cause I knew him from school
I remembered what my mamma said
Don't talk to strangers
Don't talk to strangers
Don't do all the thinking with your little head
Like mamma said
Like mamma said
And my mamma said
Don't talk to strangers
Don't talk to strangers
Just wrap it up so you don't wind up dead
Like mamma said
Like mamma said
My mamma said
(4x)
Hey pretty lady it's crazy you're almost twice my age
I want to dance on your body like I shake it on stage
Don't talk to strangers
Don't talk to strangers
Don't do all the thinking with your little head
Like mamma said
Like mamma said
and my mamma said
Don't talk to strangers
Don't talk to strangers
Just wrap it up so you don't wind up dead
Like mamma said
Like mamma said

Blacked out in a white room
My last cigarette lost the cherry
Reminds me of fallen idols
Their hearts on their sleeves when they're buried.
And freedom don't come easy
Just show me the way and I'll meet you there
You're the one thing that I needed
I'm caught in the crossfire and I don't care.
'Cause I try so hard
I never thought I'd fall so far
And everytime I do, I scar
But now I'm wide awake
So say, say, say you love me
Don't take, take, take too long, I'm falling
I'm way, way, way too lonely
The same great thing you always wanted
You're not alone
I'll never care how far you go
You'll always know it
Say, say, say you love me
'Cause I need to colour outside the lines
I'll cry on the inside
But nobody else can hear anything
You're an upside to my downfall
All of the sweetness without the sting
And I try so hard
I never thought I'd fall so far
And everytime I do, I scar
But now I'm wide awake
So say, say, say you love me
Don't take, take, take too long, I'm falling
I'm way, way, way too lonely
The same great thing you always wanted
You're not alone
I'll never care how far you go
You'll always know it
Say, say, say you love me
'Cause I need to colour outside the lines
You can fall from grace and land on your feet
But if I'm gonna be anybody, I gotta be me
You can save some face and find room to breathe
And if I wanted, would you give it away?
So say, say, say you love me
Don't take, take, take too long, I'm falling
I'm way, way, way too lonely
The same great thing you always wanted
So say, say, say you love me
Don't take, take, take too long, I'm falling
I'm way, way, way too lonely
So lonely, so lonely
You can fall from grace and land on your feet
But if I'm gonna be anybody, I gotta be me
You can save some face and find room to breathe
And if I wanted, would you give it away?
You're not alone
I'll never care how far you go
You'll always know it
Say, say, say you love me

Well I've been beat down to the sound of laughter, but I'll be okay
And you can keep calling me your beautiful disaster, all damn day
See I hold your heart like a part of me baby
It's the only thing that's stopping me from falling down
Yeah, you're the harmony that keeps me sound
Chorus: so now if I stay or if I go
I'll always hold your heart of gold
For if I stray if I'm not strong
You'll be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on

So burn me down and dance around the ashes, I'll be okay
'cause I go up like an airplane when it crashes, all damn day

Chorus
Never let me go
I'm no good lonely, without you
So you can keep calling me your beautiful disaster, I'll be okay
Chorus
Be my strength to carry on
In a time when everything was free
And the whole damn world revolved around me
I can't go back and I won't go back to you
To believe somebody else could pay
For mistakes I so carelessly made
I can't go back and I won't go back to you
But I can't set free this part of me
When I'm crawling back to you
And I won't let you forget how far we've gone
Because that one great final mistake
Is the one thing I won't let you make
So take my advice, and save your goodbyes
I won't let you fall apart on your own
You're never alone
We've burned the books and made it harder
For you to be the fire started
I can't go back and I won't go back to you
And as you leave I can't believe
It's me I see in you
And I won't let you forget how far we've gone
Because that one great final mistake
Is the one thing I won't let you make
So take my advice, and save your goodbyes
You're gone, so move on; it's time we let things go
You're gone, so move on; it's time we let things go
You're gone so move on
And that one great final mistake
Is the one thing I won't let you make
So take my advice, and save your goodbyes
I won't let you fall apart on your own
You're never alone
(Without you I would doubt you)
You're never alone
(Without you I would doubt you)
You're never alone
(Without you I would doubt you)
You're never alone
(Without you I would doubt you)
You turn a cheek they slap the other one
dont try to step out of line they'll stomp on anyone
you start to think what if everyone would stop being so weak to stand up for once
i wont walk away i got a lot to say
chorus:
i thought that i was free
they took that all from me
they told me i should back down
on the ground
not a sound
dirty little freak
but this is how i bleed
and we ain't gonna stop now
a penny for your thoughts now
a bullet for your dreams
a bullet for your dreams
we've got the noise no way to silence it
don't let them block out your voice we're so sick and tired of it
it's not okay we've had enough of it
playing dead for so long don't make you innocent
i won't walk away
i got a lot to say
Bridge:
don't live your life cornered
you've got to fight for it
stand up and walk the way you talk like you could die for it
they feed us lies it's true
god knows i'm hungry too
but they can't stop what we were meant to do
Chorus: (x2)
i thought that i was free
they took that all from me
they told me i should back down
on the ground
not a sound
dirty little freak
but this is how we bleed
and we ain't gonna stop now
a penny for your thoughts now
a bullet for your dreams
a bullet for your dreams
a bullet for your dreams
a bullet for your dreams
Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I need you like a bullet to my brain
It seems I'm never breaking free
While you sit and watch me bleed
When the night falls there's nowhere to go
I won't let you in, let you see me cry
I can't give you that satisfaction this time
Do you really get what you need
Beating the hell out of me?
I'm so tired of getting up off the floor
I won't take this anymore
I won't take this anymore
So low but still breathing funny how you show you care
Is hell still beneath me? Or am I already there?
It seems I'm never breaking free
While you sit and watch me bleed
When the night falls there's no where to go
I won't let you in let you see me cry
I can't give you that satisfaction this time
Do you really get what you need
Beating the hell out of me?
I'm so tired of getting up off the floor
I won't take this anymore
All that's left in this brave new world
Is ticking clocks and dancing girls
And broken hearts to find another way to shut it all out
Take some time in life to see
This point of view from on your knees
Electric hearts will play a song
You've heard a thousand times, a thousand times
I won't let you, won't let you see me cry
I can't give you that satisfaction this time
And do you really get what you need
Beating the hell out of me?
You're never gonna spread your disease
So get your hands off of me
I'm so tired of getting up off the floor
I won't take this anymore
A bone shatters, fall apart and hit the floor
If it doesn't thrill you it doesn't matter any more
Bones shatter, baby don't go out this time
No matter where you've been or who you are
If it doesn't kill you it's sure to leave a horrible scar
Bones shatter, baby don't go out this time
So what's another Stan who's not a fan a million miles away?
And what's he gonna do to me that I haven't already seen?
You'll never stop me, you know it's everything to me
We'll never stop 'cause we're only getting better
We're not making this up so just write another letter
I'll be fine
Alive again another day, I'm not afraid to get over
Never stop 'cause we're only getting better
I'll be fine
I've been better, seen a brighter side of life
But any friend of the failure's a friend of mine
Bones shatter, baby don't go out this time
So what's another Stan who's not a fan a million miles away?
And what's he gonna do to me that I haven't already seen?
You'll never stop me, you know it's everything to me
We'll never stop 'cause we're only getting better
We're not making this up so just write another letter
I'll be fine
Alive again another day, I'm not afraid to get over
Never stop 'cause we're only getting better
I'll be fine, I'll be fine
You were everything to me
You were everything to me
You were everything to me
You were everything to me
We'll never stop 'cause we're only getting better
We're not making this up so just write another letter
I'll be fine
Alive again another day, I'm not afraid to get over
Never stop 'cause we're only getting better
I'll be fine
Alive again another day, a way to get over
I've been kicked out, been told I'm a total disgrace
I've been shoved I've been pushed, I've been slapped in the face
I've had drinks thrown my way
And barely escaped with my life
So go on say what you wanna say
And save me from this misery
Cause I know what you're getting at
And I've been there done that
We'll never run back no!
I don't know what to tell ya?
If you come back now
With nothing left to sell ya
You can't obliterate this battle station
With a stunning lack of wit and imagination now
You can try all you want; you can beg you can plead
You can blame it on me when you're starting to bleed
But the clothes on my back
Are all I need to change about me
So go on say what you wanna say
And save me from this misery
Cause I know what you're getting at
I've been there done that
We'll never run back no!
I don't know what to tell ya?
If you come back now
With nothing left to sell ya
You can't obliterate this battle station
With a stunning lack of wit and imagination now
So I guess I'm not a total loss
And a little stronger now
You will know how much it costs
To get away with life so loud
And maybe I'm just tired of losing blood over you now
Now it's getting late, and you know we're out of time
It was my mistake; can you make up your mind?
We'll never run back no!
I don't know what to tell ya?
If you come back now
With nothing left to sell ya
You can't obliterate this battle station
I heard a distant early warning
But I chose to ignore it
It came back and bit me
Seems like we're victims of bad timing
'Cause you wanted more than I did
I can't give you what you need
She said, ?Hold me, hold me
Closely, closely"
That's when I should have ran
321, it's the final meltdown, I want out now
I wish I would've known to doubt you
I'm better off alone without you
321, it's the same old story, love gets gory
Why'd we have to go and change things?
Now touching you is such a strange thing
I got so caught up in the moment
That I forgot what it all meant
But still I'd do it all again
You said, "No strings attached, I'm wild"
I didn't know you're in denial
And you became my ball and chain
She said, ?Hold me, hold me
Closely, closely"
That's when I should have ran
321, it's the final meltdown, I want out now
I wish I would've known to doubt you
I'm better off alone without you
321, it's the same old story, love gets gory
Why'd we have to go and change things?
Now touching you is such a strange thing
She said, "Hold me, hold me, closely, closely
Hold me, hold me, closely, closely?
That's when I should have run, run, run, run
321, it's the final meltdown, I want out now
I wish I would've known to doubt you
I'm better off alone without you
321, it's the same old story, love gets gory
Why'd we have to go and change things?
Now touching you is such a strange thing
She's holding on while she can
Why'd we have to go and change things?
She's holding on while she can
Now touching you is such a strange thing
She's so out of hand
I'm dreading all the baggage and what it brings
She's so out of hand
