I don't want to think about you anymore I don't want to think about you anymore ‘Cause you've been on my mind For such an endless stretch of time And I don't want to think about you anymore I've got to clear my head Of everything you ever did Of everything you ever said I've got to clear my head Of everything you ever did Of everything you ever said I don't want to put my trust in anyone I don't want to put my trust in anyone ‘Cause nothing that I knew Turned out to be true And I don't want to put my trust in anyone I've got to clear my head Of everything you ever did Of everything you ever said I've got to clear my head Of everything you ever did Of everything you ever said
I have had enough It's just so tired It's got to end I have figured out What you're about Let's not pretend
It's true Don't you realize I've got you memorized I see it in your eyes When you start telling lies It's true Don't you realize I've got you memorized I see it in your eyes When you start telling lies
Please don't push your luck It's all used up For good this time Please it's got to stop I know just what Is on your mind
It's true Don't you realize I've got you memorized I see it in your eyes When you start telling lies
Your mind must be racing When you get out of bed I can only imagine what goes on your head You don't say what you mean And you don't know what you said Instead of saying nothing make up Something instead
It's true Don't you realize I've got you memorized I see it in your eyes When you start telling lies
Moving slowly into the setting sun Keeping secrets away from everyone Staring out into another world Tide is rising, but time is standing still Ocean city girl Is smiling Ocean city girl Is flying The night is falling; the streetlights start to glow No one's there when the cracks begin to show They can't hurt her like she's been hurt before No one here can get near her anymore Ocean city girl Is fading Ocean city girl Is saying goodbye Ocean city girl Is fading Ocean city girl Is saying goodbye Ocean city girl Is fading Ocean city girl Is saying goodbye

Dark stars in the summer skyline Parked car with the lights still on We lay low; we kill the radio You smile, but there's something wrong Long days spent in silence Long nights with the headphones on Don't know where you had to go You're already gone And it only goes to show There are worlds I'll never know There are rooms I'll never find In the corners of your mind Ba ba, ba ba, ba da da da Ba ba, ba ba, ba da da da Ba ba, ba ba, ba da da da Ba ba, ba ba, ba da da da White noise from across the city Rush hour in the pouring rain Could be the way you look at me Something's not the same And it only goes to show There are worlds I'll never know There are rooms I'll never find In the corners of your mind Sometimes When the sun shines I feel like I can see inside The places you go And it only goes to show There are worlds I'll never know There are rooms I'll never find In the corners of your mind And it only goes to show There are worlds I'll never know There are rooms I'll never find In the corners of your mind Ba ba, ba ba, ba da da da Ba ba, ba ba, ba da da da Ba ba, ba ba, ba da da da
Life's like that, delicious with clause You never get the truth, just promises galore Fool at the heart, don't look down Everybody loves you when you're playing the clown
Oh, oh, mother dear Don't let them shoot your kite down Oh, oh, mother dear Don't let them shoot your kite Out of the sky
Another year came, glorious sun I tried to be an acrobat before I could run The afternoon came, trumpets play Oh, oh, maybe I'll get outta here one day Father, oh, father Everybody's young and far too serious
Oh, oh, mother dear Don't let them shoot my kite down Oh, oh, father, yeah You'd let them shoot me down for sure Another year Don't let them shoot my kite Out of the sky
Life's like that
Oh, oh, mother dear Don't let them shoot my kite down Oh, oh, mother dear Don't let them shoot me out of the sky Oh, mother dear Don't let them shoot your kite down Out of the sky Don't let them shoot your kite down Out of the sky Don't let them shoot your kite Out of the sky Don't let them shoot your kite Life's like that, delicious with clause (Out of the sky) Don't let them shoot your kite down
Sooner or later she feels the morning come. Isn't it safer dark thoughts all gone. What a sensation. She has made it through one more tomorrow. Raising up her eyes to a brand new sky she knows the truth at last she's never coming back.
She'll be gone. So many years... She'll be gone. Melting away... She'll be gone this is the day.
Someone is walking up to the bedroom door. Hearing him knocking she knows what it's for. She's at the window wondering why there is no one to save her. Raising up her eyes to a brand new sky she knows the truth at last she's never coming back.
She'll be gone. So many years... She'll be gone. Melting away... She'll be gone this is the day.
Raising up her eyes to a brand new sky she knows the truth at last she's never coming back. She'll be gone. So many years... She'll be gone. Melting away... She'll be gone this is the day.
The cat's on the carpet. The phone doesn't work. I hate when it's quiet. It means that you're hurt.
It gets so complicated 'til I can't pretend. I thought I could do something good but I'll never do that again. I thought I could do something good but I'll never do that again.
And you put your book down and stare into space. You turn all the lights down so I won't see your face.
It gets so complicated 'til I can't pretend. I thought I could do something good but I'll never do that again. I thought I could do something good but I'll never do that again
Well my brother says I can't live in the past. But when you're more depressed by what's ahead you start believing in old dreams very fast. There were some awful times, and then there were some more. But now remembering the worst of it- it doesn't seem to be so bad anymore.
Well I don't know what to do. Whether I leave or stay with you- I get the message either way. I get the message either way.
Well Christian says that I don't want you now. But what he doesn't seem to ever grasp is that I never cared about you anyhow. It was a dirty way to leave me by the road. And when I finally found my way to town you stood there with a smile so everyone would know.
Well I don't know what to do. Whether I leave or stay with you- I get the message either way. I get the message either way
He sits in the car, walks in the park, waits in his room as the city gets dark. He can't understand why he's falling apart. It's never too late- it's only too hard.
He locks all the doors, pulls down the shades. He's not the same since he went away. He can't figure out what to do with his days. He's wasted his time. Now he's wasting away.
By now there's nothing left to say- I just opened your letter. I know you're only human but I expect something better. You let me down again. You drove me to the end. And it's so strange the way you've changed. You knew me well. Now I can tell you don't know anything. By now there's nothing I can say- I just finished your letter. I know you're barely human but I can get something better. You let me down again. You drove me to the end. And it's so strange the way you've changed. You knew me well. Now I can tell you don't know anything. You let me down again. You drove me to the end. And it's so strange the way you've changed. You knew me well. Now I can tell you don't know anything. And it's so strange the way you've changed.
Ba ba ba ba. Ba ba ba ba. Ba ba ba ba. Ba ba ba ba. You can talk all night. Why not let it die? You want to be right. I don't want to fight. Please just let me sleep I'm very tired. And we can talk about it when I'm feeling more alive.
Ba ba ba ba. Ba ba ba ba. Ba ba ba ba. Ba ba ba ba. I dream you are blind. I stare into your eyes. You see only white. Or is it black, I can't decide? You say are you there and I just smile. I just sit in silence let you wonder for a while.
Ba ba ba ba. Ba ba ba ba. Ba ba ba ba. Ba ba ba ba
You can really stare. You can stare a thousand miles and yet still I know exactly what you see. You can really care. You can care about the things that happen to the strangers that you never meet.
These are the things about you. These are the things about you. These are the things about you I know.
There is so much here. There is so much that defines you in the things you keep inside and never show. It is really clear. There is more behind that smile as you're walking down the driveway in the snow.
These are the things about you. These are the things about you. These are the things about you I know
Anyway you will take what you need Anyway you will take it from me Straight straight straight to the ledge Loose yourself in the sound Look out over the edge I know how you'll go down Anyway you will get what you want Why should I wait for that day to come Straight straight straight to the ledge One last smile and you're gone Step out over the edge as if nothing is wrong It will be quick and painless and easy Quick and painless and easy I don't want you to leave me but you'll go anyway
Straight straight straight to the ledge Loose yourself in the sound Look out over the edge I know how you'll go down It will be quick and painless and easy Quick and painless and easy I don't want you to leave me but you'll go anyway
Back in our town you were the only one who really knew me. Laughing out loud. We always knew you could see through me.
Everything is all right. Everything is all right.
Under the sun whispering foolish things, you could really hear me. You were the one the only one I would let near me.
Everything is all right. Everything is all right. Everything is all right.
And here I go. Nobody knows. And here I go. Nobody knows.
I want to free a part of you. I want to see the start of you. I want to free a part of you. And here I go nobody knows. I want to see the start of you. And here I go nobody knows. Back in our town you were the only one who really knew me
A world become one Of salads and sun Only a fool would say that A boy with a plan A natural man Wearing a white stetson hat Unhand that gun begone There's no one to fire upon If he's holding it high He's telling a lie
: I heard it was you Talkin' 'bout a world Where all is free It just couldn't be And only a fool would say that
The man in the street Draggin' his feet Don't wanna hear the bad news Imagine your face There is his place Standing inside his brown shoes You do his nine to five Drag yourself home half alive And there on the screen A man with a dream
Anybody on the street Has murder in his eyes You feel no pain And you're younger Then you realize
Deep in another dream Thinking about you Sailing through the city streets Thinking about you It's only been a little while But I'm thinking about you Can't hide another smile I've been thinking about you But I never look back (Never look back) Never look over my shoulder And I never react (Never react) Can't go where I've gone before No, I never look back (Never look back) Now I've grown so much colder And you're fading to black (Fading to black) Like it's nothing at all It's nothing at all Deep in another dream Thinking about you Feels like the final scene Thinking about you Save it for a little while Thinking about you Time for another smile I've been thinking about you But I never look back (Never look back) Never look over my shoulder And I never react (Never react) Can't go where I've gone before No, I never look back (Never look back) Now I've grown so much colder And you're fading to black (Fading to black) Like it's nothing at all It's nothing at all But I never look back (Never look back) Never look over my shoulder And I never react (Never react) Can't go where I've gone before No, I never look back (Never look back) Now I've grown so much colder And you're fading to black (Fading to black) Like it's nothing at all It's nothing at all (Thinking about you) It's nothing at all It's nothing at all (Thinking about you) Thinking about you
let me take your hand i'm shaking like milk turning turning blue all over the windows and the floors fires outside in the sky look as perfect as cats the two of us together again but it's just the same a stupid game
but i don't care if you don't and i don't feel if you don't and i don't want it if you don't and i won't say it if you don't say it first

you can't even see now so you ask me the way you wonder if it's real because it couldn't be rain... through the right doorway and into the white room it used to be the dust that would lay here when i came here alone
but i don't care if you don't and i don't feel if you don't and i don't want it if you don't and i won't say it if you don't say it first
doo doo doo doo let's go to bed! doo doo doo doo let's go to bed!
