[VERSE I]
Life gets lost inside itself
Flash back now as someone else
Playback your life in the blink of an eye
Is this what you were supposed to be like
Take a picture
Take a picture of yourself

[CHORUS]
And say good-bye to the old you
Now you're living in the afterlife
Say good-bye to the old you
Now you're living in the afterlife
You can try if you want to
But the memory will not survive
Now you're living you're living
You're living in the afterlife

[VERSE II]
Rip yourself out of the blur
See if you miss who you were
Life's meant for living so might as well try
Plug in to the action and electrify
Take a picture
Take a picture of yourself

[BRIDGE]
You are taking a picture of right now
So you can remember yourself
Once you're somebody else
And you can't afford your youth
And all the time you thought you were controlling
Trying your best to hold on
You were already gone
And now you're living the truth

If you had any idea what it was gonna take
Would you have gotten started in the first place
All these commitments you’ve made
They keep on adding up
Because you got addicted from the first taste

Ooooh, nobody wonders
Nobody really cares
Ooooh, about your intentions
Until you gotten there

Oooo, when you started out, you were just a blank space
You started out, you were just an ordinary face
You started out, now you’ve got to finish what you’ve done
Isn’t that why you started in the first place
Started in the first place

If you had ever believed
That you were gonna break
Would you have gotten going in the first place
All these decisions it takes
To get you through the day
With no one even noticing your heart break

Ooooh, are you alone yes
Are you in trouble no
Ooooh, people’s opinions
They tend to come and go

Oooo, when you started out, you were just a blank space
You started out, you were just an ordinary face
You started out, now you’ve got to finish what you’ve done
Isn’t that why you started in the first place
Started in the first place

How do you know
When you’re finally done
If you’ve got nothing to show
How do you know
When all the people you might trust
All forget to let you know

Ooooh

Oooo, when you started out, you were just a blank space
You started out, you were just an ordinary face
You started out, now you’ve got to finish what you’ve done
Isn’t the why you started in the first place
Started in the first place

Can you remember at the start
Can you remember trying your first shot
Can you remember wanting to be there
Can you remember wanting to be there
Do you know why you started in the first place
Do you know why you started in the first place
In the first place
Started in the first place

Started in the first place

[CHORUS]
I'm not cool
And nobody would want me that way
I'm just a regular guy
In an insane world
Don't worry bout me
I'll be ok

[VERSE I]
It was a picture perfect day
I hit the freeway in LA
Driving a car you'd only see in a movie

Became my once and future self
With all the style and the wealth
Surrounded by the people who wanna use me

And then it came an epiphany
From somewhere out of the car
I never saw him crash into me
But I know how I got home
In a tow truck all alone
Now I know

[VERSE II]
I went out drinking in New York
With bottle service just for sport
Pretending I was living life like a hero

Flashing the labels on my clothes
Trying to keep up with the bros
Talking bout bank accounts and leaving off zeros

And when that bill came I could not breathe
Never saw numbers that high
So much for living in infamy
Acting flush was not that hard
Till I maxed out all my cards
Now I know

[BRIDGE]
Cool people maybe they're just born with it
They know the trends before they're here
And I'm sick of trying cuz they're no denying
That's there's nothing cool about my atmosphere

[CHORUS]
I don't wanna work anymore
I just wanna live instead
Everyone is saying I'm all grown up
I've come a long way but I'm not there yet

[VERSE I]
Where did the summer go
I was just hitting my stride
It's this insanity
Takes me along for the ride

And I swam the oceans and the seven seas
Knowing that fate would strike eventually
You gotta hit rock bottom if you wanna come out on top

[VERSE II]
Where did the winter go
I just got used to the cold
And it’s this maturity
Keeps me from getting too old
And I saw a snow fall on a thousand towns
With a sense of purpose I had just then found
You gotta run real far before you ever feel close to home

[BRIDGE]
You know I'm not there yet
Been working myself into a lonely state
You know I'm not there yet
Been breaking my back to find another way
And it's been a long time coming
I deserve to take a holiday

You never have to do
Anything we come to you
And the world outside revolves around sweet Lisa
And you never can be wrong
Cause we always play along
And I get myself in trouble just for Lisa

Lisa, what happens if you move away
I’m not gonna follow you cause things have got to change
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
Lisa, what you trying to do to me
Everything is fine so what would make you want to leave
Oh no, oh no, no, no

You never have to lift
A finger you just sit
On your throne and make us come and bow to Lisa
You do not make attempts
Cause you say you are exempt
But I must admit I still can’t get enough of Lisa

Lisa, what happens if you move away
I’m not gonna follow you cause things have got to change
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
Lisa, what you trying to do to me
Everything is fine so what would make you want to leave
Oh no, oh no, no

Lisa, you say that everything just wears you out
Lisa, I wish I knew what you were talking about
Lisa, I can’t blame you for the way that you have been
Why go out to face the world when you can, you can, you can order in

Lisa, what happens if you move away
I’m not gonna follow you cause things have got to change
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
Lisa, what you trying to do to me
Everything is fine so what would make you want to leave
Oh no, oh no, no
Lisa, Lisa
Lisa, Lisa
Lisa, Lisa
No, no Lisa, Lisa

Talk is cheap, and I should know
I've given my everything, and it wasn't close
People mean well, but still make a mess
From now on I'm listening, and saving my breath

Lately I'm losing my appetite
For all the pretty young girls and the socialites
Who just talk
And this is what we do, we just talk
Watch 'em waste breath on a magazine
Or rehash what the television shows all mean
It's just talk
And this is what we do, we just talk

Some people don't know how they really feel
Some people won't talk about what is real
And I could never chitchat all day long
Some people just look for an open ear
Some people don't care what you want to hear
And everybody's talking while they're stringing me along

I'll go by what you do
Cause talk is cheap
And I don't want to wait for you
Cause talk is cheap
I don't know how you spend your time
But I'm done wasting all of mine
Cause talk is cheap

Lately I'm tired of politics
And listening to the neverending arguments
That just stall
And this is what we do, we just stall
Never know someone to change their mind
After a heated debate over the moral lines
We just crossed
But this is what we do, we just talk

Some people get cute and they draw the line
Some people won't choose over left and right
And I could never stomach all that greed
Some people don't care enough
Some people get scared enough
To get talked into something that they think they should believe

I'll go by what you do
Cause talk is cheap
And I don't want to wait for you
Cause talk is cheap
I don't know how you spend your time
But I'm done wasting all of mine
Cause talk is cheap

Some people, some people, some people
Think action is overdue
Some people, some people, some people
Can't wait, we've got work to do

I only speak of what I've done
Cause talk is cheap
And if you're listening, everyone
But you talk when you're talking to me

I'll go by what to do
Cause talk is cheap
And I don't want to wait for you
Cause talk is cheap
I don't know how you spend your time
But I'm done wasting all of mine
Cause talk is cheap

I give myself up every day
To fight this woe is me demeanor
If things had gone another way
Now would my grass be any greener?
And as I'm struggling on my own
I have to think I'm not alone

Give and take, we catch our breaks
We all learn to survive
Oh, but don't look now
I said don't look now
Cause here we are,
Living the best days of our lives
These are the best days of our lives

I fly around the world to spend
My nights with strangers and their lovers
I notice happiness depends
On if we share it with each other
So when this craziness is through
I'll spend my happiness with you

Give and take, we catch our breaks
We all learn to survive
Oh, but don't look now
I said don't look now
Cause here we are,
Living the best days of our lives
These are the best days of our lives

As we're walking through the fire
Isn't it great to be alive?

Give and take, we catch our breaks
We all learn to survive
Oh, but don't look now
I said don't look now
Cause here we are,
Living the best days of our lives
These are the best days of our lives

Everybody, let me hear you sing
It goes..
Give and take, we catch our breaks
We all learn to survive
Oh, but don't look now
I said don't look now
Cause here we are,
Living the best days of our lives
These are the best days of our lives

Whooa, whooa, whooa
I’m going down to the basement ya’ll
Where people all have a good time
The parties that I hear have nothing to do with
My ears are going out of my mind, mind, mind
Down here they play the real thing
Songs that were really rock and roll
It’s a cliche to put it this way
But they don’t make em like that anymore, more, more, more
So if they put me in the spot light
I’m never leaving the floor

I’m going down to the basement
I’m going down to the basement
I’m going down to the basement
Cause I really want to rock and roll
Ooohhh

An old man gets on the mic
Tells us to hang our burdens up
He says songs you hear today all start to get in the way
Till you’re barely feeling the love, love, love, love
He drops the needle on a pop song
He drops the needle on some soul
And I watch a pimp fall in love over there
Dancing to songs their parents would know, know, know, know
So everybody give me room now
Watch me cut a rug in the show

I’m going down to the basement
I’m going down to the basement
I’m going down to the basement
Cause I really want to rock and roll
Ooohhh

Party people sweat out the night
Let your body do just what it likes
Just want to hear some favorite before my years
Dance soldiers forgetting our day jobs
Trying to get off cause we really came to rock and roll

I’m going down to the basement
I’m going down to the basement
I’m going down to the basement
Cause I really want to rock and roll
Cause I really want to rock and roll
Cause I really want to rock and roll
Cause I really want to rock and roll
Cause I really want to rock and roll
Say I really want to rock and roll

[VERSE I]
I love you
From the bottom of my heart
And that's not gonna change but things look grim
When I am watching you watch him

I give you
The best a man can hope to give
But I'm not feeling brave chances are slim
When I am watching you watch him

[CHORUS]
Ohhh What is left to learn
When he would let you crash and burn
He never gives attention but you still yearn
Where do I fit in
When I am watching you watch him

[BRIDGE]
God only knows why I still wait around
Except I hate to see you cry
And I need you
But there are things I cannot do

[VERSE II]
I want you
When he's playing all his games
And it gets hard to tell who's the victim
When I am watching you watch him

[VERSE III]
And I love you
Like a broken record plays
But I'm a windowpane a phantom limb
When I am watching you watch him

I can’t write my words
When I don’t have you
I can’t sing my song
When my strings won’t tune
You won’t believe me
You won’t believe me crying

I can’t walk my path
When I can’t stay motivated
I can’t pay my dues
When it gets too complicated
You won’t believe me
You won’t believe me
So you’ll never see me

Give me a reason and I won't breakdown
And if that’s all that you’ve got
You’d better not get caught
I’ve got more in store

I can’t keep my beat
When I don’t have you
I can’t shake my sins
When you won’t come through
How could you leave me?
How could you leave me?

(Just when you see me crying
And I can’t feel low down
When I don’t have legs to stand on
I can’t feel low down
When I there ain’t no ground to land on)

And I can't take my words
When I can't stay down
And I make up the words
When they won't come around
How could you leave me?
How could you leave me?
Now you’ll never see me

Give me a reason and I won't breakdown
And if it’s all that you’ve got
You’d better not get caught
I’ve got more in store

Don’t look at me and act like you’re just blind
Let’s work it out before you change my mind

Give me a reason and I won't breakdown
And if that’s all that you’ve got
You’d better not get caught
I’ve got more in store

And I won't break down if you give me a reason
But I got no reason so I'll just breakdown
