The Goo Goo Dolls

You never know
Some folks think the world just moves to slow
But was it you
Told me I'm your everything
Ya

Hit me like I never felt before (like I never felt before)
Hit me like a sucker punch
Rotten to the core you know ya
Hit me like I never felt before
Surely for the last time

You never take
A promise from a man who sheds his skin
Had a way
For my aching heart to break you

Hit me like I never felt before (like I never felt before)
Hit me like a sucker punch
Rotten to the core you know ya
Hit me like I never felt before
Surely for the last time

Now everyone gets angry
And I feel it when you're holding me
From the right place
At the right time
To the right degree
It's a breeding ground
For the way I found
From dealing with your scene

You know that it aint easy
That it aint easy
That it aint easy
That it aint easy

Hit me like I never felt before (Hit me like I never felt before)
Hit me like I never felt before (Hit me like I never felt before)
Hit me like I never felt before (Hit me like I never felt before)

I'm Surely for the last time

It's been a long, dark, lonely hall
Between the cracks I can read the scrawl
It's written down in a crooked rhyme
That sold me out before my time
You know but, since then I been back down to the edge
I can't believe the things you never said
I can't explain the words I never found
My whole world should come crashing down
You know, but you can't sell me out
with everything you think about
I think back I draw a blank
You know but, there ain't no need to dig the past
You know I, I don't wanna live my life in a day
I ain't got no need for this plastic cage
'Cause you don't think about anything I think about
You know what I mean
- 간 주 중 -
Now you know for sure you're alive
Because you watched her leave before your eyes
You know I'm afraid to say your name
But I ain't afraid to share this blame
Because, you can't sell me out everything you think about
You know what I mean
- 연 주 중 -
It's been a long, dark, lonely hall
Between the cracks I can read the scrawl
Find a place that feels like home
You know I, I get some clue to where I'm going
You know, you don't think about anything I think about
You know what I mean
You know what I mean, oh no
You know what I mean

Your love's a gathered storm I chased across the sky
A moment in your arms became the reason why
And you're still the only light that fills the emptiness
The only one I need until my dying breath
And I would give you everything just to
Feel your open arms
And I'm not sure I believe anything I feel
And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here
And I'm trying to believe
In things that I don't know
The turning of the world
The color of your soul
That love could kill the pain
Truth is never vain
It turns strangers into lovers
And enemies to brothers
Just say you understand
I never had this planned
And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here
Without you here
There's nothing more without you
Without you here
My head lies to my heart
And my heart it still believes
It seems the ones who love us are the ones
That we deceive
But you're changing everything
You're changing everything in me
And now, now that you're near
There's nothing more without you
Without you here

You and I got something
But it's all and then it's nothing to me
And I got my defenses
When it comes to your intentions for me
And we wake up in the breakdown
Of the things we never thought we could be

I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
What do you got to move you darling
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

*
And I want to get free talk to me
I can feel you falling
And I wanted to be all you need
Somehow here is gone

I have no solution
To the sound of this pollution in me
And I was not the answer
So forget you ever thought it was me

I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
What do you got to move you darling
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

*Repeat

And I don't need the fallout of all the past
That's here between us
And I'm not holding on
And all your lies weren't enough to keep me here

*Repeat

And I want to get free talk to me
I can feel you falling
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
I can feel you falling
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
Somehow here is gone

When you're feeling all wrong in the back of your mind again
How does it feel?
When you drop down
Everything's all the same
Oh Yeah

Saccharine, Caffeine, Nicotine Gum
All tastes sweet but it's not for long
And I just think you thought it would be

And when you're looking for truth on the cover of a magazine
How does it feel?
When you found out what you're not gonna be
Oh Yeah

They give you your image and the things you believe
Open your eyes tell me what did you see
And I just think you thought it so real

And how does it feel when you're out on your own
And now it's too late to go home
And it's hard to be free when you're down on your knees
Take it easy till you make it alone

Now you're supermarket, punk rock, television, comedy
Out on the Scene
Yeah, I been down
Now there's no hand to feed
Oh Yeah

And all the beautiful images lining your walls
Pop Radio screaming down the halls
And now you think you found something real

And when it's all about money and the things that you need
Live a big lie and they all believe
Now I just find that somehow obscene

And how does it feel to be out on your own
And now it's too late to come home
And it's hard to be free when you're down on your knees
Take it easy till you make it alone
Take it easy till you make it alone
What A Scene
Yeah

It's all been said before
And all been done
Take it easy till you make it alone
Take it easy till you make it alone

Cuz Lies Weigh more than truth
Innocence looks good on you
Now everybody wants to know your name

It's a beautiful day
I heard everybody say
The sun shines down for all of us
Just the same you know I like the rain
That ain't so obvious
It's a beautiful sight
I guess everybody's right
This day belongs to all of us
Even still I like with a chill
That ain't so obvious

We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
It's a beautiful life
and I've got it in my sights
And that ain't for all of us
It's a beautiful sound
When my life comes crashin down
That ain't so obvious
It's a beautiful sin and I'm doin' it again
And that ain't for all of us
It's a beautiful life
and I've got it in my sights
Ain't that so obvious

We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why

We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
There's no reason why
We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why

We Are The Normal

Are you listenin' now?
Are you feelin' that way?
Aren't you terrified?
Of wakin' up too tired to try again?

Are you happy now
That you've shut yourself down
Are you paralyzed
By all the nonsense that's gone down

I know you're gonna see these things someday

Sorry-eyed we spent so much of your time
Now I'm tryin' to put your riddle to a rhyme
Now it's up up up I'm headin' for this evenin'
And it's up up up I'm headed for the clouds

Comin' down ain't the worst part
It only takes a second
To make a change that's gonna last

I hope you're gonna see these things happen someday
So don't stop lookin' for that light along the way

Sorry that we've spent so much of your time
Now I'm tryin' to put your riddle to a rhyme
Now it's up up up and headin' for this evenin'
And it's up up up and I'm headed for the clouds

Up Yours

And it really don't impress me all that much

And you say here comes the end
And you haven't got a friend
And I'm standing here just screaming at the wall

Up yours

And you shake your stupid head
And you wish that you were dead
And I swear sometimes you're happier than me

And you know it's hard to be
All the things you want me to be
And you go and make it hard on me
But I swear that anything you could be I could be can't you see

Up yours
Got no mind

'Cause it's driving me insane
And it really doesn't matter much to me

Up yours. Got no mind
That's too bad. You got time
Yeah, fuck your silly game
Cuz it's driving me insane
And it really doesn't matter much to me

I hung your picture on the wall and that's all it is
I break my fingers to make a call and that's all it is
I know you're living way out west and I don't think that I confessed
Everything I feel

You say you got no faith in things that you can't see
Well I'm sorry I ain't there with you but you ain't here with me
And I'm down in all my fears
But I ain't crying no tears over you

Cause everything's wrong
Well it's all right
Everything's wrong
Well it's all right

You said that this is crazy you're a half a world away
Well I'm sitting and I'm thinking but I didn't know what to say
So I said something I can't touch, I always want way too much
Anyway

Cause everything's wrong
Well it's all right
Everything's wrong
Well it's all right

I hung your picture on the wall but that's all it is
I break my fingers to make a call and that's all it is
I know you're living way out west
Don't get me wrong I'm not impressed
With you no more

I hung your picture on the wall 'and that's all it is
I break my fingers to make a call 'and that's all it is
I know you're living way out west
and I don't think that I confessed
Everything I feel

You say you got no faith in things that you can't see
Well I'm sorry I ain't there with you, but you ain't here with me
And I'm down in all my fears
But I ain't cryin' no tears over you

'Cause everything's wrong
Well it's all right
Everything's wrong
Well it's all right

You said that this is crazy, you're a half a world away
Well I'm sitting and I'm thinking but I didn't know what to say
So I said something I can't touch, I always want way too much
Anyway

'Cause everything's wrong
Well it's all right
Everything's wrong
Well it's all right

I hung your picture on the wall, but that's all it is
I break my fingers to make a call and that's all it is
I know you're living way out west
Don't get me wrong I'm not impressed
With you no more

Well, I saw you once
Then I blew it for the next ten thousand days
I should have flapped away
I needed to come back and show you
I needed to go back
I know it's wrong
I laughed to get along

[Chorus]
Mama just called
Says she's tucked away
Mama just called
Says she's tucked away another day
Mama just called
Says she's tucked away
Mama just called
Says she's extra sad today

Well, I spent the whole day yesterday
On clichIJs about love
Making me remember when your pushes became shoves
I wanted to come back and show you
Needed to go back
I know it's wrong
I laughed to get along

[Chorus]

So why'd you go and play my trust
Today's the same as yesterday, and I'm okay
???I take the time this weatherman did time again to get along???
Since you've been gone
I'll get along anyway at all

Mama just called
Says she's tucked away
Mama just called
Says she's tucked away another day
Mama just called
Says she's tucked away
Mama just called
Says she's tucked away another day
(Tucked away)
(Tucked away)
(Tucked away)
(Tucked away)

Truth is a whisper and only a choice
Nobody hears above this noise
Always a risk when you try and believe
I know there's so much more than me

Yeah I got caught in the ruse of the world
It's just a promise no one ever keeps
And now it's changing while we sleep
And no one can see

*
You know all I am
Feel this moment in you
You know all I am
Can you teach me to believe in something

Sometimes you choke on the smell
Just to breathe
I need to question what I need
Rhythm of silence
That beats through your mind
Still you forget what you deny

Yeah I got caught in the ruse of the world
It's just a promise no one keeps
And now it's changing while we sleep
And no one can see

*Repeat

Who's the one you answer to
Do you listen when he speaks
Or is everything for you
And do you find it hard to sleep
Or is it easy on your own
Will you ever find some peace
Before you're gone

*Repeat

Well I went down to your house just the other day
Only to discover you had gone astray
Torn apart
Torn apart
Torn apart
Torn apart

Well I called you on the tele just the other day
Only to discover you had gone astray

Torn apart
Torn apart
Torn apart

Torn apart

Torn apart
Torn apart
Torn apart
Torn apart

Torn apart
Torn apart
Torn apart
Torn apart

You take a lot of chances with your feelings
No one really knows what you feel
Fixing is the only way you're dealin'
You turn your pretty head and think it's real

*Oh, you
(You)
You take it so slowly
And your eyes look so lonely
But it's only when you think about me
Oh, yeah
When you think about me
Think about me

And I got ahead
Don't let me speak
And you got a secret I can't keep
You see a little stranger in your mirror
The guy you never knew is what you fear

* Repeat

And all you want is something I can't be
All you want from me is what you need
And now I'm saying I don't know

You take it so slowly
And your eyes look so lonely
But it's only
(But it's only)

Oh, you
(Oh, you)
You take it so slowly
And it's only
(And it's only)
'Bout me
When you think about me
Think about me

Oh, when you think about me
Oh, yeah
When you think about me
(Oh, yeah)
Think about me
Yeah, when you think about me

Give me a reason now that I can understand
Pick up the pieces now and put them in my hand
I've been up and down for you
My suffering extreme
I fell on my face for you
Now I know what it means
And I self destruct
I close my eyes and there
There you are

Yeah you can run out west, forget you know my name
You say you got your shit together, but you ain't got no faith
Method in madness
Now there's madness in my soul
I'd run from the darkness now
I've got no place to go
And I self destruct
I close my eyes and there
There you are

Give me a reason now that I can understand
Pick up the pieces now and put them in my hand
I've been up and down for you
My suffering extreme
I fell on my face for you
Now I know what it means
And I self destruct
I close my eyes and then
There you are
You are
There you are
Yeah you can run out west, forget you know my name
You say you got your shit together, but you ain't got no faith
Method in madness
Now there's madness in my soul
I'd run from the darkness now
I've got no place to go
And I self destruct
I close my eyes and then
There you are
You are
There you are

There you are
You are
There you are

Stranger than your sympathy
And this is my apology
I'm killing myself from the inside out
And all my fears have pushed you out

And I wished for things that I don't need
(All I wanted)
And what I chase won't set me free
(It's all I wanted)
And I get scared but I'm not crawlin' on my knees

Oh yeah
Everything's all wrong, yeah
Everything's all wrong, yeah
Where the hell did I think I was?

Stranger than your sympathy
Take these things so I don't feel
I'm killing myself from the inside out
And now my head's been filled with doubt

We're taught to lead the life you choose
(All I wanted)
And all your lucks run out on you
(All I wanted)
And you can't see when all your dreams are coming true

Oh yeah
It's easy to forget, yeah
And you choke on the regrets, yeah
Who the hell did I think I was?

And stranger than your sympathy
And all these thoughts you stole from me
And I'm not sure where I belong
And no where's home and I'm more wrong

And I was in love with things I tried to make believe I was
And I wouldn't be the one to kneel before the dreams I wanted
And all the dark and all the lies
Were all the empty things disguised as me

Mmmm yeah
Stranger than your sympathy
Stranger than your sympathy
Mmmm-mmmmm-hmmm

Well you play your part so easily, you fooled yourself again
WIth your lipstick smeared across some face you'll never see again
And I sat there in the corner working back my memories
And I wondered if the time would come you'd get around to me

Oh oh, oh oh
Living the sweetest lie
Oh oh, oh oh
Living the sweetest lie

Well you made me feel electric every moment that we shared
But the lights went out when I realized you never even cared
So I picked myself back up, I didn't know where I had been
And the thing that makes it seem so wrong is I want you back again

Oh oh, oh oh
Living the sweetest lie
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Yeah, come on baby, give me love
Oh oh, oh oh
Living the sweetest lie
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Oh, come on baby, give me love

You know you'll never be taken
You know you'll never be taken, no
And now you're tired of waking
Now you're tired of waking up

Oh oh, oh oh
Living the sweetest lie
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Yeah, come on baby, give me love
Oh oh, oh oh
Living the sweetest lie
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Oh, come on baby, give me love

It's getting near dawn
When lights close their tired eyes
I'll soon be with you my love
To give you my dawn surprise
I'll stay with you darling soon
I'll stay with you till the seeds are dried up

I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love

Be with me my love
The light's shining through on you
Be with me my love
It's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you darling soon
I'll stay with you till the seeds are dried up

I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love

Be with me my love
The light's shining through on you
Be with me my love
It's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you darling soon
Oh, till the seeds are dried up

I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love

In the sunshine of your love

I've got no politics, no influential friend or two
I've got ideas, but it's nothing I picked up at school
I might be running, but I'm never running back to you
And here's a letter from the real world,
I don't expect you'll reply
And anything you're gonna tell me, it's just another lie
I had to wait so long that weeks and months
that passed me by
You've got no power and my situation don't apply
You ask me how I am, I lie and say I'm doing fine
And with your sugar-sweetend alibi,
there was a truth I never knew
And all the attitude you gave me, it's coming back to you
String of lies, it's always compromise with you
String of lies, you know there's nothing better to do
String of lies, it's been a string of lies with you
And here's a letter from the real world,
I don't expect you'llreply
And anything you're gonna tell me, it's just another lie

String of lies, we always compromise for you
String of lies, you know there's nothing better to do
String of lies, it's been a string of lies with you
String of lies, we always compromise for you
And here's a letter from the real world

You're likin' what I say
Guess I was afraid you'd run away now
I'm loyal like a stray
Never gonna turn and run away now
A passion junkie's fix is never satisfied
You're never gonna break his heart so have some fun abuse it

Strange Love
You're a Strange One

You washed away your yesterday
I saw you cleanin' up
A bucket full of doubts
And a little bit of power grabbin'
When it's all done
What are you gonna do
With you

A passion junkie's dog ain't got a collar on
He's never gonna break so go ahead and shake him

Strange Love
Breaks Us Down
Strange Love
Though nothing's gonna break us now

And you're actin' suprised
Oh, all of the time
Into your charms
Slips my life

Strange Love
Breaks Us Down
Strange Love
Though nothing's gonna break us now

You're likin' what I say
Guess I was afraid you'd run away now
I'm loyal like a stray
Never gonna turn and run away now
A passion junkie's fix is never satisfied
You're never gonna break his heart so have some fun abuse it

Strange Love
You're a Strange One

You washed away your yesterday
I saw you cleanin' up
A bucket full of doubts
And a little bit of power grabbin'
When it's all done
What are you gonna do
With you

A passion junkie's dog ain't got a collar on
He's never gonna break so go ahead and shake him

Strange Love
Breaks Us Down
Strange Love
Though nothing's gonna break us now

And you're actin' suprised
Oh, all of the time
Into your charms
Slips my life

Strange Love
Breaks Us Down
Strange Love
Though nothing's gonna break us now

You need someone to hold you
You need somethin' that you ain't been getting
Yeah, I could be the one
To tell you what to do, but it don't mean nothing
And you're holding on forever
But that something just ain't true
I'm just like you
And I know
It's what I'd do
Here I go
'Cause I couldn't stop the world
cause I loved you
I couldn't stop the world, and I don't want to
I couldn't stop the world, and I won't
'Cause it ain't enough

You had another bad day
You let me know that you just can't take it
I've given up on you
You live in truth and I know I can't fake it
'Cause the stars you see are on a dirty sidewalk
And they ain't polished and new
If they don't come true
And I know, it's what I'd do
Here I go
'Cause I couldn't stop the world, 'cause I loved you
I couldn't stop the world, and I don't want to
I couldn't stop the world, and I won't
'Cause it ain't enough

I'm not too young for the world
And I can't change for the world
'Cause I don't care for the world
I'm not too young for the world
And I can't change for the world

Called you up ten years too late
Just to hear your voice again
I know your voice is still the same
I know that something's changed

My words are choked and full of tears
But still you listen to me dear
And someone's calling you away
And now I understand

The time that I've wasted
So bitter and faithless
Is wearing me down now
Down now

So can you hear me
Or would you sing along
Or turn me down
Forget I ever wrote this for you
So can you hear me
Or has it been too long
I know that I was wrong
And this is still your song

Turn it on and off again
And now I lost another friend
You waded through my darkest thoughts
When I was sure to drown

And now I pass you on my way
And if you stop, what could I say
Apologies for yesterday
Like a fool, I walk away

The time that I've wasted
So bitter and faithless
Is wearing me down now
Down now

So can you hear me
Or would you sing along
Or turn me down
Forget I ever wrote this for you
So can you hear me
Or has it been too long
I know that I was wrong
And this is still your song

And all I understand
We're here and gone again
Even through a thousand sleepless nights

I fill the page with my beliefs
It's all I have to keep
Tear it up and start again

So can you hear me
Or would you sing along
Or turn me down
Forget I ever wrote this for you
So can you hear me
Or has it been too long
I know that I was wrong
And this is still your song

I don't pretend to understand all the things I put you through
And I don't need forgiveness
But I owe one thing to you
This is your song
This is your song

These streets
Turn me inside out
Everything shines
But leaves me empty still
And I'll, burn this lonely house down
If you run with me
If you run with me
I'll stay with you
The walls will fall before we do
Take my hand now
We'll run forever
I can feel the storm inside you
I'll stay with you
Fooled by my own desires
I twist my fate
Just to feel you
But you, turn me toward the light
And you're one with me
Will you run with me?
I'll stay with you
The walls will fall before we do
Take my hand now
We'll run forever
I can feel the storm inside you
I'll stay with you
Now come in from this storm
I taste you sweet and warm
Take what you need
Take what you need
From me
Wake up this world
Wake up tonight
And run with me
Run to me now
I'll stay with you
The walls will fall before we do
Take my hand now
We'll run forever
I can feel the storm inside you
I'll stay with you

I was a stranger and you came to my side
And you said, "Oh you're alright now"
And you were so knowing
I felt so lost and confused

Oh, I need you there
When the nightmares
And dreams have come true

I barely knew you
But you talked till you laughed
Till you cried out so loud
"Someone save me"

Oh, black streaks of Maybelline
Run down your cheeks again
Oh, I prayed for answers
You take the chances or refuse

Oh, I need you there
When the nightmares
And dreams have come true

And oh, I need you there
When the nightmares
And dreams have come true

Yeah, we belong
Yeah, we belong
Yeah, we belong
Yeah, we belong

Oh, I need you there
(Yeah, we belong)
When the nightmares
And dreams have come true

Oh, I need you there
(Yeah, we belong)
When the nightmares
And dreams have come true

Oh, I need you there
(Yeah, we belong)
When the nightmares
And dreams have come true

Oh, I need you there
(Yeah, we belong)
When the nightmares
And dreams have come true

Well they're shutting all the shops up on the avenue
And they're holding up for cheaper Chinese food
If I'm older now and have a tainted attitude
Why'd those neon lights all lose their common blue?
And it's not like me to feel so important
And it's not like me to go and wreck your day
And I never thought I'd see it so exploited
Ah but I know that somethin' bad has gotta change
Oh yes I know that somethin' bad has gotta change
Well I see 'em working round the block till six a.m.
The thermometer's at minus five degrees
And I'm wondering where all that hard earned money goes
To her head or towards a shred of dignity
And it's not like me to feel so important
And it's not like me to go and wreck your day
And I never thought I'd see it so exploited
Ah but I know that somethin' bad has gotta change
Oh yes I know that somethin' bad has gotta change
Go!
And it's not like me to feel so important
And it's not like me to go and wreck your day
And I never thought I'd see it so exploited
Ah but I know that somethin' bad has gotta change
Oh yes I know that somethin' bad has gotta change
Yes I know that somethin' bad has gotta change
Oh yes I know that somethin' bad has gotta change

When you came back
I knew you'd have a story
You need someone
To ease the pain of living life

You're like a soldier in the fray
Seeking shelter
From all the madness
That you've seen raining down now

I know things change
Your world has slipped away
I know things change
But you're living like a soldier
Who's caught in the fray

Don't lose your faith
It's not so cold
It's not too late

When you were naive
You were so invincible
And you laughed at anyone
And anything that ever got in your way
Yeah, yeah

But now the mirror shows the change
And you don't see that
You're sinking back into the crowd
An echo fading

I know things change
Your world has slipped away
I know things change
But you're living like a soldier
Who's caught in the fray

Don't lose your faith
It's not so cold
And it's not too late

And I never thought I'd see
You living on your knees
A slave to some disease
That holds you captive

And you can look inside of me
But the answers that you seek
And everything you need
Is all inside you

I know things change
Your world has slipped away
I know things change
But you're living like a soldier
Who's caught in the fray

Don't lose your faith
'Cause it's not so cold
It's not too late

I heard the floor creak or so I thought
I had my head rubbing on the ceiling
They say that indecision makes one weak
My indecision's suddenly been deepened
One day ain't forever
You'll find your time
You look outside it's snow
Been snow so long you know
Just feel like lettin go
So outta line

You've worked so hard for everything you've got
Ten minutes later you're a loser
Count your blessings and the ones you love
At this point we beggars can't be choosers
One day ain't forever
You'll find your time
You look outside it's snow
Been snow so long you know
Just feel like lettin go
So outta line

One day ain't forever
You'll find your time
You look outside it's snow
Been snow so long you know
Just feel like lettin go
So outta line
One day ain't forever

Don't take much lookin' back to know I took my coffee black then
Nothin's different now but nothin' seems the same and it's alright.
Your optimistic views your hundred dollar running shoes and
Carpel tunnel syndrome we all had a laugh about it
I'd love to stick around but I gotta tell you all
So long
Oh so long, oh so long
But I didn't wanna tell you all so long
Don't take much lookin' back to know I faked that heart attack then
And nothin's different now but nothin' seems the same and it's alright
You always spoke the truth from circa disco Abba boots and
All that showbiz talk, oh we all had a laugh about it
I'd love to stick around but I gotta tell you all
So long
Oh so long, oh so long
But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

Oh so long, oh so long
But I didn't wanna tell you all so long
I gotta get back to where I belong
Long
Oh so long, oh so long
But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

So long
Oh so long, oh so long
But I didn't wanna tell you all so long

Why do you stare me down?
Am I wrong?
Should I turn and kiss the ground?
And I never felt that way
I ain't the one and you know I don't come from such a place
And I didn't get those things
Things that you can't grow
And I don't need to know
Tell me something I don't know
And I'll find that I'm always looking 'round behind me
You said that it's all been said before
Now I find that there's something I don't know
And I hate your attitude
I ain't scared at all
'Cause it don't matter what you do
And I'll turn around to see the truth
You're tearing it down, yeah, you're bringing it down
And it's all on you
And I didn't get those things
Things that you can't grow
You say that it's all my fault
And I don't need to know
Tell me something I don't know
And I'll find that I'm always looking 'round behind me
You said that it's all been said before
Now I find that there's something I don't know

And I know
I don't know
(Rock and roll)
And I say that
If you break enough glass and there's no one to hear
And your heart's full of hate
'Cause your mind's full of fear
Let it go
So far away
So far away
So far away
Oh so far away
So far away
So far away

What do you need from me tonight
I feel you look right through me now
I can't pretend it's alright
Maybe we'll find a way somehow

Why do you need to turn it on
Why does it always feel so wrong

What do you need from me tonight
The truth is so complicated now
You feel so free to say
You're wrong

Fear makes you fragile darling
Hate is so heavy when you're weak
Now we're both lost in anger
When we're alone we'll
Find some peace

Why do we need to turn it on
Why does it always feel so wrong

What do you need from me tonight
The truth is so complicated now
You feel so free to say
You're wrong

Why do we need to turn it on
Why does it always feel so wrong

What do you need from me tonight
The truth is so complicated now
You feel so free to say
You're wrong, you're wrong
You're wrong, you're wrong

What do you need from me tonight
The truth is so complicated now
You feel so free to say
You're wrong

Why do we need to turn it on
Why does it always seem so wrong

Could you whisper in my ear
The things you wanna feel
I`ll give you anything
To feel it comin`
Do you wake up on your own
And wonder where you are
You live with all your faults
I wanna wake up where you are
I won`t say anything at all
So why don`t you slide

Yeah we`re gonna let it, slide

Don`t you love the life you killed
The priest is on the phone
Your father hit the wall
Your ma disowned you
Don`t suppose I`ll ever know
What it means to be a man
Something I can`t change
I`ll live around it
I wanna wake up where you are
I won`t say anything at all
So why don`t you slide

Mmmmm Slide

And I`ll do anything you ever
Dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothing that fall
Oh May put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are
what you are is beautiful
Oh May do you wanna get married
Or run away

And I`ll do anything you ever
Dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothing that fall
On May put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are
What you are is beautiful
Oh May do you wanna get married
Or run away

I wanna wake up where you are
I won`t say anything at all
And I`ll do anything you ever
Dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothing that, fall
And I`ll do anything you ever
Dreamed to be complete (Yeah~ Slide)
Little pieces of the nothing that, fall
Oh oh oh slide
Why don`t you slide into my room
Just slide into my room
Oh, we`ll run away, run away, run away

Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know
I drag her around wherever I go
This little woman drives me insane
She's tied to my ankle with a ball and chain

For sixteen years she's been hangin' around
Try'n' to bury me in a hole in the ground
Well I think it's time that I even the score
There's only room for one in this cage of yours

Don't save me when I startin' to drown
Don't use me when you don't want me around
Just be my slave girl 'cause that's all I need
So take a little step back to the stone age with me. Go!

Well I hear a strange noise as I lie in mybed
I feel a lotta water drippin' on my head
I look around tried to see through my hair
You left me alone, but do you think I care?

'Cause you moved me when I was takin' my time
You abused me when I'm outta line
You tried to warn me of the danger sign
So watch out! Go!

Well, you got me in the bondage of another age
You drive me to distraction in a primitive way
I can't control my instincts when I hear her say
"Just come around and see me if you lose your way"

So join my chain gang play along with me
I'll be your caveman, it's basic as can be
I'm not insane, man, I'm just outta my dream

And if the accident will, well we'll both fade away
And I'll leave you still, and we will both be saved
Say oh say , your life will pass away
Only to be saved, by another's lonely stay

All the flowers I can grow and all the children's tears
And everything I know will vanish with the years
Say oh say , your life will pass away
Only to be saved by another's lonely stay

And if the accidents will, well we'll both fade away
But the trees will grow, until my dying day

All the flowers I can grow, and all the children's tears
And everything I know, will vanish with the years
Say oh say , your life will pass away
Only to be saved by another's lonely stay

Well I was hanging around the railway station
My mind was in the state of total degradation
Little boy blue came and blew his horn now
Scared those cows right out of the corn now
I hear you screaming but you can't come in
Cause I know, that you're just a sex maggot!

Mommy and daddy used to play this game now
Told me boys and girls are really all the same now
I don't know the difference at the age of twenty one
used to watch my parent do it yuck yuck i want to sex u up
fuck fuck
Who's telling me I don't like anyone

I hear you screaming but you can't come in
Cause I know, that you're just a sex maggot

Scream scream scream i start to scream
Every time I start to dream
Scream scream scream out my little lungs
Oh, I gotta climb some rungs

Scream scream scream
'Til your brain erupts
Rapid eye movement got hit by a truck
Rolled over on the pavement 50 times
Awoke to the sound of my screaming mind

I wake wake wake in a cold, cold sweat
Rolling around in the sheets and screaming wet
Oh my God, here it comes
Another time, another, another rung

I caught you stealing things you knew I'd give
But nothing seems to matter in your life
I come around to when I go to miss
But nothing seems to matter here tonight

And it's sad, I'm sorry
Guess you're going blind

Say you're free now, say you're free
'Cause tonight this might just mean the world to me
Say you're free now, say you're free
'Cause tonight this might just mean the world

Well, aware of what the answer is
But nothing means enough to fill that space
I'm still depending on the life of it
But honestly, it feels like such a shame

And it's sad, I'm sorry
Guess you're going blind

Say you're free now, say you're free
'Cause tonight this might just mean the world to me
Say you're free now, say you're free
'Cause tonight, this might just mean the world

Follow superstitions close
They never fade away you know
Your horoscope, your love is stoned
Let them go now, let them go

Say you're free now, say you're free
'Cause tonight this might just mean the world to me
Say you're free now, say you're free
'Cause tonight, this might just mean the world to me

Say you're free now
Say you're free now
Say you're free now

Being afraid can be o.k. if you're willing to let things go
Take the the time and try to find and learn what you don't know
I dont know why I got behind the wheel
Sun's in the sky and i was...

On the road to Salinas
Down the road I thought could free us
Ordinary dreams would go
But I would always get back home

Take the time and try to find the boy inside my brain
Saw him way out on a limb and he was trying to get away
I don't know why I feel the way I feel
Sun's in the sky and I was...

On the road to Salinas
Down the road I thought could free us
Ordinary dreams would go
But I would always get back home

See myself in someone else and I just don't know why
When I lay my head to sleep I lay awake and cry
I dont know why I got behind the wheel
Sun's in the sky and i was...

On the road to Salinas
Down the road I thought could free us
Ordinary dreams would go
But I would always get back home

I ain't go no outfits to pick and choose
So I really ain't got that much to lose
Picture's getting fuzzy and it's stuck on channel 3
And the whole thing looks pretty silly to me
50,000 more and I'm out of the red
Heavy Metal thrash band, it's all a bunch of shit
People trying to name me while I'm trying to do my bit
I ain't got the patience or the time to waste
Call me a rock star you can spit in my face
Gonna take a horse to drag me outta my bed
I'd rather hang with drunks than hang out with myself
Well, the booze is over there take a glass off the shelf
If you ain't had enough by tomorrow at noon
we're gonna place a call to the boneyard crew
Went to sleep at home and woke up in a shed

I know the face
Don't know the name
As time goes by
You all look the same
The last time that you saw me
I didn't think you cared
The next time that I saw you
It was me who stood and stared

I'm out of sight
You're out of mind

Hang at the bar
Blah blah making noise
You work at Chevy
I guess it's your choice
You really thought you had me
Thought you put me in my place
Super cool in high school
But now I'm in your face

I'm out of sight
You're out of mind

They tell me you got a wife
I heard she's fat
You got a kid
And I got a cat
You really thought you had me
Thought you put me in my place
Super cool in high school
But now I'm in your face

I'm out of sight
You're out of mind

I'll open up my head awhile
Its been dead for years
Musta been a victim of my peers
One is for my happiness
The other for my health
The last is something bigger than myself
I ain't the only one, I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say
I'm talkin' to myself again
I'll just start a fight
Nobody can prove me wrong, I'm right
Anti-hero idol with a suicide excuse
A thousand other suckers will try and fill your shoes
I ain't the only one, I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say

I ain't the only one, I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say
Little pictures in my head are turnin' inside out again
'Cause fuckin' up takes practice I feel I'm well rehearsed
Because the past is a bully and the futures even worse
You tell me what you fear 'cause I can feel it like a curse
Well, you used to be a folk singer, now you're just a joke singer
Ain't no smokin' dope singer, swingin from a rope singer
I ain't the only one, I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say

Only One


I'll open up my head awhile
Its been dead for years
Must have been a victim of my peers
One is for my happiness
The other for my health
The last is something bigger than myself

I ain't the only one to say

I'm talking to myself again
I'll just start a fight
Nobody can prove me wrong I'm right
Anti-hero idol with a suicide excuse
A thousand other suckers will try and fill your shoes

I ain't the only one to say

Little pictures in my head
Turning inside out again
Cause fucking up takes practice I feel I'm well rehearsed

Because the past is a bully and the futures even worse
You tell me what you fear cause I can feel it like a curse

Well, you used to be a folk singer now you're just a jokesinger
Ain't no smoking dope singer swinging from a rope singer

I ain't the only one to say

God you still amazed me when you speak to me that way
Oh, the sound of your voice, the look in your eyes,
you stand there in your grace
You told me that the scars you bear are beautiful and real
you also turn the lights back on, I wanna see the things you feel

And we've got one night to let the whole world know
just how perfect we could be, just close your eyes and then you'll see
We've got one night to let the whole world know,
forget about the falling stars, tonight we'll show them who we are,
we are

I feel it when you're near me and I know when you're not there,
oh when I'm on the edge and so alone and no one seems to care
But you reach out and pull me back and love me til I'm free
All the joy in my life I feel I've lost you see inside of me

And we've got one night to let the whole world know
just how perfect we could be, just close your eyes and then you'll see
We've got one night to let the whole world know,
forget about the falling stars, tonight we'll show them who we are,
we are

Your life' s a song I sing
and it doesn't matter anymore
if anyone is listening to me
cause' you move like light
and descend on me,
your tender moving through my life

We've got one night to let the whole world know
just how perfect we could be, just close your eyes and then you'll see
We've got one night to let the whole world know,
forget about the falling stars, tonight we'll show them who we are,
we are, oh, we are. Yeah, we are, oh we are
(Tonight we'll show them who we are)
We are, oh, we are. Yeah, we are, oh we are
(Tonight we'll show them who we are)

I'm on a mission baby
I'm not hearing what you're saying
Stop preaching at me now
I'm not a revelation
Superstar or new sensation
I'm just hiding away my frowns

We don't see eye to eye
I'm on your side
With a smile and a sigh
I'm on your side

Five a.m. I shut my eyes
Then my worries tranquilized
Don't think the morning comes too soon
If I don't see the morning
That's ok they're pretty boring
See you tomorrow afternoon

We don't see eye to eye
I'm on your side
With a smile and a sigh
I'm on your side

You're living in a trailer
Friends all think that you're a failure
But are you thinking for yourself
You read the Sunday paper
Wife's pissed off 'cause you ain't laid her
Rolling pennies for your wealth
Me too. . .

We don't see eye to eye
I'm on your side
With a smile and a sigh
I'm on your side
I'm on your side

He burnt down the house one night
He had a loaded six-pack gun
He said that Jesus Christ was just like a cop
You know,
you never know when they'll come
She said every day above ground
Was another dream come true
He said I'd hang
and swap clich brvbars all night
But I'm not in love with you
And I never got serious
'Til everything went black
And I ain't so curious
That I'm ever going back
On the lie
He said, man, you want to be Elvis
I said I ain't dying face down
He said you've got to die
facing up in the world
'Cause there's too many holes around
He asked what was wrong with me
He said I looked like a Hollywood girl
I said that Hollywood
can fall into the ocean, man
'Cause it's the ugliest place
in the whole wide world
And I never got serious
'Til everything went black
And I ain't so curious
That I'm ever going back
On the lie
On the lie, he was
On the lie
On the lie, she was
On the lie
On the lie, he was

It's all been a stinkin' lie

Take time to try to and find the light that shines behind your eyes tonight
I found a big dark place inside
There's more to both of you than anyone's expecting here tonight
Wish I could make that right, well

They covered up your eyes
They never gave you nothing more than pain

Now I hear
Yeah, I hear
You're throwin it all away
Now I hear
Yeah, I hear
You're throwin it all away

Don't make a sound we stayed away from all the static on the line
I guess we never stopped to shine
I'd cry out loud if I remembered all the mess I'd left behind
But then I'd have to lie, and

They covered up your eyes
They never gave you nothing more than pain
Oh, I'd come around for you
I know cause I'm feelin the same way

Now I hear
Yeah, I hear
You're throwin it all away
Now I hear
Yeah, I hear
You're throwin it all away
(Repeat)

Hey anybody in this world
Can you talk to me a while
Find a reason for it all
Cause I've been thinking backwards
to a place I've never been
to a home that never was
It's like I'm losing it again
and it takes
so long to say these words
Can you wait that long for me
Hey nothing is real
it's all what you believe
Something you dream inside
your head
You know how I feel because
it's just you and me
Something I need to call my own
To feel and call my own

Duck inside this empty room
and I'm waiting for the sun
to come to me
Someday I'm gonna get this right
Gonna find a better way
I wanna lead another life
I wanted to let you know me
but I'm trapped inside the fear
and I never said a word though
you always seemed to hear
When I take so long to say
these words
yeah you wait so long for me
Hey nothing is real
it's all what you believe
Something you dream
inside your head
You know how I feel because
it's just you and me
Something I need to call my own
To feel and call my own

Hey nothing is real
it's all what you believe
Something you dream
inside your head
You know how I feel because
it's just you and me
Something I need to call my own
Nothing is real
it's all you believe
Something you dream
inside your head
Nothing is real
it's all what you believe
It's something
I need to call my own
To feel and call my own

All I waited for
Was a chance to make you understand
And tell you these forgotten truths
You never thought were real
And if the world should turn its back
You know that I'm still here

Time won't ever steal my soul
We're not broken, so please come home

Morning comes, and life moves on
But when it changed
You didn't know where you belonged
I'll still catch you when you fall
Through a past that steals your sleep
And scrawl these words upon your wall
Remind you to believe

Time won't ever steal my soul
We're not broken, so please come home
And if the world has worn you down
I'll be waiting, so please come home

I won't let them break you down
And I won't hear the empty sounds
I'm hopelessly pretending that I know the answer
Angels light the neon fires
That burn so cold through your desires
And all you are is all I need to know

Time won't ever steal my soul
We're not broken, so please come home
And if the world has worn you down
I'll be waiting, so please come home

Every time I walk you down by Delaware park
You'd only hold my hand when its after dark
All the places that I go and all the things that we have seen
It makes me wanna scream

There's no way out

Every time I come a knockin' at your door
You tell me turn away, pal you're to poor
I ain't a rich boy, of course I know that
All the places that i go are just cheap cheap cheap

There's no way out

Every time I waited for you in the rain
My heart says our love is some kind of god damned pain
I stand around and i think it's gonna work
But won't you look at me, what am I a jerk... no!

There's no way out

It was only last June when her old man ran away
She couldn't stop cryin', she knew he was gone to stay
Ten thirty five on a lonely Friday night
She was standin' by the fire, uh, she was lookin' alright

I asked her if she wanted to dance and she said
All she wanted was a good man who wanted to know if I thought I was qualified
I said, baby, don't waste your time
I know what's on your mind
I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I can never take the place of your man

It hurt me so bad when I saw the tears in her eyes
She was all he ever wanted and now she wanted to die
He left her with a baby and another one on the way
She couldn't stop cryin' she knew he was gone to stay

She asked me if we couldn't be friends and I said
Oh, honey baby, that's okay you know and I know, know, know you wouldn't be satisfied

I said, baby, don't waste your time
And I know what's on your mind
I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man

I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man

I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man

La la la oh oh woah
Never take the place of your man
That's all I need, girl
Is a one night, one night, one night stand
I don't wanna be like a steak in your mind
Oh, girl, if you need a friend I'm there by your side
Sha la la la, sha la la
Sha la la la, sha la la

Name
And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
'Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Got tossed along the way
And letters that you never meant to send
Get lost or thrown away

And now we're grown up orphans
That never knew their names
We don't belong to no one
That's a shame

But if you could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell em' your name

And scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there
Did you get to be a star
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are

We grew up way too fast
And now there's nothing to believe
Reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell em' your name
I won't tell em' your name
Mmm, mmm, mmm,

I won't tell em' your name
Ow!

I think about you all the time
But I don't need the same
It's lonely where you are come back down,
And I won't tell em your name

And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
I saw the dreams you never thought you'd lose
tossed along the way
Letters that you never meant to send
Lost or thrown away

And now we're grown up orphans
That never knew their names
Don't belong to no one
That's a shame

You could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
and I won't tell noone your name
I won't tell em' your name

Scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there
did you get to be a star
Don't it make you sad to know that life
is more that who we are

You grew up way too fast
and now there's nothing to believe
And reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio

and I won't tell noone your name
I won't tell em' your name
I won't tell em' your name
I won't tell em' your name

Think about you all the time
But I don't need the same
If it's lonely where you are
come back down,
and I won't tell em your name

Come back down
And I won't tell 'em your name

Yeah I'm fadin'
And I call out
No one hears me
Never been, never felt, never thought I'd say a word
Weighed down

You can't take back all those years
The shots in the dark from empty guns

One to many times I've seen you in a frown
Hold your head down in despair
Oh, but, time after time you wear that frown
But you never seemed to care

Fortune, misfortune
Such a distortion
Fortune, misfortune
Such a distortion

You keep on reaching for those things you just can't keep
You keep on searching for tomorrow
Oh but i know, what you sew you also reap
You beg you steal and you borrow

Fortune, misfortune

Fortune, misfortune
Such a distortion
Fortune, misfortune
Such a distortion

Friday night, I just got back
Had my eyes shut, was dreamin' 'bout the past
I thought about you while the radio played
I shoulda got loaded, some reason I stayed

I started drifting to a different place
I realized I was fallin' off the face of the world
And there was nothing there to bring you back

Cuz you're a million miles away
A million miles away
And there's nothing there to bring you back today
Today, oh no

I took a ride way downtown
The streets were empty, there was no one around
I went to places that we used to go
Seen all the faces that we used to know

I'm at the wrong end of the looking-glass
I tried to hold onto the hand of the past and then you
And there's nothing there to bring you back

Cuz you're a million miles away
A million miles away
And there's nothing there to bring you back today
Today, oh no

Cuz you're a million miles away
A million miles away
You're just a million miles away
A million miles away
And there's nothing there to bring you back today
Today-ay-ay, oh no

Messed up yeah
Messed up yeah
Messed up yeah
Messed?up?messed

If I could walk a straight mile
I could write it down in shorthand
I could show you if want me to
And if I had an hourglass
I'd save the grains of time I spent with you
thats what I'd do.
But I remember
You always said it could be great
and I knew it could be
Well there's a way you look at things
that no on needs to know but you
and you share them with me
Like every time the leaves would fall you
promised me that they'd be back
again
And I believed in you
You always said it coul be great
but I had no time to wait
As bright as you are
don't get burned by your lucky star
Bright as you as
dont get burned by your lucky star
Written down in hardbound books
they way things used to be, they aint for me
I'd swear they're all for you
We said sugar, gramps said shoot
her mom said shit
I dont know what she'll do As if its up to you
But I remember
You always said it could be great
but I had no time to waste
and it seems you've come too far
As bright as you are
don't get burned by your lucky star
Bright as you as
dont get burned by your lucky star
You're lucky star will burn ya
You're lucky star can turn you ah
You're lucky star will burn ya

That no one needs to know but you
And you'd shout it with me
Like every time the leaves would fall
You promised me that they'd be back again
And I believed in you
You always said it could be great
But I hadn't time to waste
Now it seems that I've gone too far
As bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star
