I like to have fun, I never bother no one
I just drink at the bar everyday
But she got enough of the things that I love
And she just walked away

She made it plain when she threw down the ring
Said, "If you like the honky tonk crowd

I'll see you later and I'm gonna give you
Somethin' you can drink about"

She said, "You'll start drinkin' double
To drown all your troubles somewhere in a crazy ol' bar
You'll have more than one tear floatin' in your beer
When I get through breakin' your heart"

She said, "If you like the night life
More than a good wife, keep on hangin' out
I'll leave a memory, no doubt
That makes you wanna pass out
I'll give you somethin' to drink about"

You'll find me in here, drinkin' my beer
Orderin' up the next round
Can't let my friend see what she's doin' to me
Darn poor thing didn't know that I'm down

Sometimes I start thinkin' why am I drinkin'
I'll be better off at the house
But I'm not goin' home, I'd only be there alone
With somethin' to drink about

She said, "You'll start drinkin' double
To drown all your troubles somewhere in a crazy ol' bar
You'll have more than one tear floatin' in your beer
When I get through breakin' your heart"

She said, "If you like the night life
More than a good wife, keep on hangin' out
I'll leave a memory, no doubt
That makes you wanna pass out
I'll give you somethin' to drink about"

She said, "If you like the night life
More than a good wife, keep on hangin' out
I'll leave a memory, no doubt
That makes you wanna pass out
I'll give you somethin' to drink about"

"I'll leave a memory, no doubt
That makes you wanna pass out
I'll give you somethin' to drink about"

It's a fact, I know that love is strange
Play so many crazy games
Love can come and love may go
Both sides have to bear the hurt, I know

Let's just say, enough's enough
And call it a love, honey, I fell for your bluff

I'm sitting here and drowning in my sorrow
I hope things aren't like this tomorrow

Honey, we both know how hard we tried
Every story has two sides
And love is young but love gets old
Love is hot and sometimes love gets cold

Just like the fool that keeps hanging on
Wondering where our love went wrong
I'm sitting here and drowning in my sorrow
I hope things aren't like this tomorrow

My friends say all I need is time
But I can't seem to get you off my mind
Forgetting is something that is hard to do
It's keeping me from getting over you

And I don't wanna hear how your times are hard
I got to pull the weeds from my own backyard
I'm sitting here and drowning in my sorrow
I hope things aren't like this tomorrow
I'm sitting here and drowning in my sorrow
I hope things aren't like this tomorrow

It's a fact, I know that love is strange
Play so many crazy games
And love can come and love may go
And both sides have to bear the hurt, I know

You look for love every chance you get,
You look so far that you can't see near,
If love walked by, would you even notice it?

Cause here I am jumping up and down,
Waving my hand for a second glance,
And if you know all about passionate kisses,
And long walks in the dull day sunset,
If you've ever been held up so high on a pedestal,
That there's no more line between what's real,
And what your dreams are made of.

Then you already know my love,
You've already filled my soul,
You know what I'm thinking of,
Cause you already know my love.

Sunny days seem to come and go,
C'est la vie hey you never know,
Just let her roll, let it flow,
Just live and let go.

But love's been known to be a game of chance,
But like to think of this as more than that,
And if you know all about passionate kisses,
And long walks in the dull day sunset,
If you've ever been held up so high on a pedestal,
That there's no more line between what's real
And what your dreams are made of.

Then you already know my love,
You've already filled my soul,
You know what I'm thinking of,
Cause you already know my love.

I can't say there's a hundred percent chance
That this will turn into a storybook romance,
Hell we might not even make it through the first dance
But I bet the odds are pretty damn good,
That if you dreamed of what it's like to be loved right
And held tight, then I'm telling you, you already know my love.

Yeah you already know my love,
You've already filled my soul,
You know what I'm thinking of,
Cause you already know my love.
Yeah you already know my love.

When I drink brown liquor, I get crazy quicker
Than an old red fox on the run
I get tongue tied and I lose my mind
And everything comes undone

It's hard to explain how it bends my brain
When it's a-swimming in my blood

When I drink brown liquor, I go crazy quicker
Than an old red fox on the run, run, run

I can chug a lug on a big beer mug
I can win the blue ribbon every time
On rum and coke, I tell real good jokes
And I hardly ever cross that line

I can shoot tequila till all I feel-a
Is one big happy buzz
But if you see me starting on the Jim or the Jack
Or the [?] then you better run

'Cause when I drink brown liquor, I go crazy quicker
Than an old red fox on the run
I get tongue tied and I lose my mind
And everything comes undone

It's hard to explain how it bends my brain
When it's a-swimming in my blood
When I drink brown liquor, I go crazy quicker
Than an old red fox on the run, run, run

I'm a pretty good guy most Saturday night
Sitting back and sipping on [?]
And I do just fine on homemade wine
And I never think of shooting my gun

Yeah, I'm A okay when the band is playing
Pop a top again
But when I start to slurp that devil in a jug
That's when my trouble begins

'Cause when I drink brown liquor, I go crazy quicker
Than an old red fox on the run
I get tongue tied and I lose my mind
And everything comes undone

It's hard to explain how it bends my brain
When it's a-swimming in my blood
When I drink brown liquor, I go crazy quicker
Than an old red fox on the run, run, run

When I drink brown liquor, I get crazy quicker
Than an old red fox on the run
I get tongue tied and I lose my mind
And everything comes undone

It's hard to explain how it bends my brain
When it's a-swimming in my blood
When I drink brown liquor, I get crazy quicker
Than an old red fox on the run
When I drink brown liquor, I get crazy quicker
Than an old red fox on the run, run, run

I can't make her cry anymore
I can't break her broken heart
The way I did before

If I could just say something
To make a tear roll down her face
Maybe there'd be a way

Oh, but I can't make her cry anymore

One too many anniversaries
I forgot to celebrate
The flowers for her last birthday
Showed up a little too late

Oh, little by little, tear by tear
Her aching hearts grow numb
I'd give anything now if she break down
But she don't care enough

And I can't make her cry anymore
I can't break her broken heart
The way I did before

If I could just say something
To make a tear roll down her face
Maybe there'd be a way
Oh, but I can't make her cry anymore

That trip we made to our special place
To spend a little time alone
She walked the beach just out of reach
While I stayed busy on the phone

Oh, so many times I've seen her cry
Over things I didn't do
Now her eyes are clear, she couldn't shed a tear
Even if she wanted to

And I can't make her cry anymore
I can't break her broken heart
The way I did before

If I could just say something
To make a tear roll down her face
Maybe there'd be a way
Oh, but I can't make her cry anymore

There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can say
I can't reach her now
She's just so far away

And I can't make her cry anymore
I can't break her broken heart
The way I did before

If I could just say something
To make a tear roll down her face
Maybe there'd be a way
Oh, but I can't make her cry anymore
No, no, no, I can't make her cry anymore

I'm fighting time
They fight for life
I'm standing still
I'm watching them fall down

Impurity that eats at me
Awakening the need for sacrifice
My weakness is
My tolerance
And ignorance of other's lives

As people burn I'm watching my T.V.
Their faces pained
They don't affect me
I'd love to help
My hands are tied right now
While I'm still learning how to help myself

A way

How to help myself

In my defense
I powerless to circumstance
A slave to my freedom
Immunity from all I see
Thank god for me
For what I have become

All we have to fear is fear of ourselves

I'd move but I can't forgive myself
A part of me still wallows in self doubt
Don't mess with me
There's too much in my head
It's not my fault
It's just how I've been led

Impurity that eats at me
Awakening hate and sacrifice
My weakness is

My tolerance and ignorance of others lives

Suffering from bitterness
Not feeling so right
Uncontrolled-mismanaged hate
No one is right
Differences unforeseen
Bound to lead
At failed attempts to do something constructively

Diffuse it
Destroy it
Abuse it and enjoy it

This horrible dream
A horrible nightmare

A wonderful dream
A wonderful nightmare

This toxic mind provoking all hostility
Frail on the outer side, anxiety
Afraid of what I'm capable of damaging
Manifestation of a mental disease

Diffuse it
Destroy it
Abuse it and enjoy it

This horrible dream
A horrible nightmare

A wonderful dream
A wonderful nightmare

I cannot control this

Why can't I do something?
Why can't I do anything?
Why can't I do something
To stop the hostility?

I think I want some more time
I need some more time
To take it all in
And start it again
Because all that you are
It isn't for me
It's breaking apart
It wasn't to be

Won't you understand
The reasons we couldn't do this?
They're standing in my way
With all the power trip's obliviousness
How am I deserving?

Taking almost everything I had
Used me up for everything I am
I thought you would give that much more to me
I thought we had something

Everything you are is not for me
Let it break apart
Not meant to be

I think I want some more time
I need some more time
To take it all in
And start it again
Because all that you are
It isn't for me
It's breaking apart
It wasn't to be

Looking back now
You have proven that nothing lasts forever
But a tiny moment
And time has moved us to separate dimensions

Taking almost everything I had
Used me up for everything I am
I thought you would give that much more to me
I thought we had something

Thought I knew something
But now it's nothing

Everything you are is not for me
I thought we had something

I think I want some more time
I need some more time
To take it all in
And start it again
Because all that you are
It isn't for me
It's breaking apart
It wasn't to be

Everything you said is coming true
Everything that I disliked about you

The dull light lingers
The candle flickers
Beside you in the red
The beat of nameless songs
The pulsing flame goes on
I try to hear
But I am not there

I saw you for the first time today
With nothing left in the way
I've never felt this way before
I fear I'll never feel this way again
What do you need to feel from me
Take what you want
What do you see?

On the ocean and beyond
Amidst the others

I'm waiting impatient
An echoed existence

The dull light lingers
The candle flickers
Beside you in the red
The beat of nameless songs
The pulsing flame goes on
I try to hear
But I am not there

The faces unfamiliar
I've never felt so close
A flickered little moment that goes on
That leaves me so sore

The radio keeps playing our old song again
To remind me of times when I thought that the days would never end
I knew this was coming, I thought I could change this
I knew you weren't coming, but that's what insincerity brings me
The visions of you, the visions of you

I have to tell you, I think that I've been haunted
I want to find you, because I think it's you who haunts me
I never trusted that you were fully complete
but now we're even, because I don't think you trust me

I've felt that something wasn't right
you never let me in your life
I know that something isn't right today
because you still haunt me
but I know, but I know...
because you still haunt me
well I know, well I know, well I know

I have to tell you, I think that I've been haunted
I want to find you, because I think it's you who haunts me
I never trusted that you were fully complete
But now we're even

The radio keeps playing our old song again
To remind me of times when I thought that the days would never end
I knew you would go, because things just haven't been the same since that day
Was it because of what I said?
I knew this was coming, thought I'd have power to delay, certain change
That's what insincerity brings me
The visions of you, the visions of you

I have to tell you, I think that I've been haunted
I want to find you, because I think it's you who haunts me
but I know, well I know...
Because you still haunt me

Energy passes
A mass of great distance
Red shifting slightly
Extremely ridged
Shifting away from gravitational existence
Everything happens with massive resistance

Shifting towards the red
Proportional to distance
Cosmological effect
Receding from our mission
Increasing energy
Recess velocity

The count goes on to
1, 2, 3, 4

Here I stand planted in this world, waiting

I see atmospheric extinction
Leading to planetary revolution
All the while threatening annihilation
We're facing a
colonized obliteration

When I was a little girl
I never dreamt of terror
Is this all now that we are?
Connections have gone so wrong

I never meant to hurt myself
But I don't feel too nice today
And when you got in my way
I never meant to beat you
But now the damage is all done
Here comes the future
And it's not looking so bright
All the defenses I put up
I never thought I'd need them
But I'm disoriented
I can not find my way out
I'm stranded in my virtual world
Here comes the future
And it's not looking so bright

When I was a little girl
I never dreamt of terror
Is this all now that we are?
Connections have gone so wrong

All the hope is gone
You were right
All I ever wanted was the light
I never was myself all night
I put up my defense
I was right

I didn't know

I feel a stirring in you

Your love it touches me
One kiss and I can't breath
One touch, I'm suffocating
Get me out I can't breath
Afflicted feelings I should hide
There was a thousand warnings
Thought this devotion I'd deny
I turn to things that haunt me

You're a disease
Sweet tasting rabies
You suck the life right out of me
Just set me free

I think of nothing all the time
Sometimes it's nothing but you
You shouldn't mean a thing to me
This shouldn't be
A stabbing pain stuck in my side
Not sure why I adore you
A strangled choking little cry
I would do all things for you

You're a disease
Sweet tasting rabies
You suck the life right out of me
Just set me free

Leave me be
Set me free
You're a disease
And you spread this on to me

I would have tried
Never knew how much it mattered to you
I'm losing sight of the things that I'd set out to do

Looking at the sky
Never knew that I could fly
Afraid to start again

Push, pushing myself down
Into this hole that comforts me to stay
And I try
To keep awake
Because every night it always feels too late

Never tried to
Never knew you
Never knew just how to fly
Always failed you
Never came through
Never saw the other side

Looking at the sky
Never knew that I could fly
Afraid to start again
And I don't know why
I was so afraid to fly
Why would happen if I tried
I'd have to start again

You're faster
Slow down
I can't catch up
I'm losing ground

Looking at the sky
Never knew that I could fly
Afraid to start again
And I don't know why
You are so afraid to fly
What would happen if we tried
We'd have to start again

In perfect rhythm marching
One beat uniting all these hearts
We stand for something somewhere
My strength and pride control my thoughts
I always thought the worst of almost everything I do
I never want to end up so fucking jaded like you

But you'll never break me down
You just rip me from the core
I take what goes and comes around
It always leave me wanting more

I stand in line behind you
I breathe and live a silent dream
That I'll fall out of step
But I'm taught that's who I never want to be
I stay aligned with values
Are these the ones that I would choose
If I led this line
And had the power like you?

But you'll never break me down
You just rip me from the core
I take what goes and comes around
It always leave me wanting more

This fire
Desire

You always thought you were a fighter
You knew you'd never win a fight
You always fought to be the fighter

You want to fight?

You never thought through your anger
You said you tried
You want to fight me?
Now everything crashes on you
You still try to fight
Well fuck you

You want to fuck?
You want to fuck me?

Sitting in a daze
It's my favorite place
I'm happy all the time
But that's a substance controlled state
The numbness of my mind
The comfort deep inside
Waiting all the time
For something else to take its place

What did you say?
It's all a haze
It's just a state but don't take this all away

I don't feel right
I don't like this
I should take something to subside this

I'm happy once again
The chemicals kick in
Happy all the time
But it's all because of them
The numbness of my mind
The comfort they provide
Waiting all the time
For something real to take their place

I've wasted time
I've wasted this mind
A superficial life
With apathy
I know we have not won
I know this all because
When we have everything
It will not change a thing

Just leave me alone today
Because all I do causes so much pain

Know no one part hello
The depthless friends that go
If I don't feel something
I'm going to burst
I tied you to myself
I thought that that would help
I tried to pull you in
I let the rope break

Just leave me alone today
Because all I do causes so much pain

I feel bad today
I don't really know what to say
I don't want to feel bad today
But I guess it's always the way

I don't want you and there's nothing I can do

The longest night
The longest hour that I have ever lived through
The softest cry
The painful longing of having ever lived through
Kiss me goodnight
Don't say a word
We're an illusion gripping at the only thing we know
The calm twilight
The quiet absence of having ever lived through
Kiss me goodnight
Don't say a word
We're an illusion gripping the unknown
Of all the things we could have been here in this night

We're an illusion to our own
We're an illusion all alone
You built your home
Planted your roots
I'm an intruder
An intrusion

I saw something in your eyes
That drew me into you in this light
There's desire in this pounding club
But alcohol and dancing don't mean love

Now I know you're not the one
But it's been lots of fun
A moment fleeting
And I know one day you'll find
Someone down the line
But it can't be me
Now please just turn away
You have to go away
You can't rescue me
One day you'll pass me by
We'll look each other in the eyes
But I won't feel a thing

The next day it's back to life
There's something shallow about club life
But next week I'll be back again
To find a new fake connection

You don't feel the way that I do
I don't feel the way that you do
We don't feel the way that they do
You don't feel the way that I do

Don't misread my mind
Think you're a great find
But we're moving on
To find the next one
I know you like my face
And the way I move
Could you heal my tears?
I don't think you could
Love me the next day
When the magic fades and the hangover enhances mistakes

I feel it
The guilt now washes over me
Resides in my consciousness
It's complicating me
All that you had to say was "Never get too close to me"
I might have thought my actions through
My rash decisions will prove
Now it's all too late

Below the surface
Is where this hurt lives
I cannot mend
I just divide inside
It's mine

I'd like to think that I could damage you from within
But I gave up and it's obvious some things go way past sin
Caught in the undertow
A victim of a counterblow
And now I'm left with these shattered nerves and emptiness that I deserve
Now it's all too late

Below the surface
Is where this hurt lives
I cannot mend
I just divide inside
It's mine

Wishing I could move time

Just get out
Now I must live without
Can't seem to fix what I've broken down

Worn out an now I just don't care
Stripped down the girl I must repair
You made me do thing that I didn't like
Unfair

Now you forget what I tasted like
And you pretend out of spite
Did you forget the depths of my eyes?
As you stared and said you wouldn't compromise

Trying to take what you wanted most
You didn't even come close
Now I will stand here in control
And never fall again

Is this my life or is it just routine
With a dime, purchased my self esteem
All this aggression self-hatred makes for one angry machine

Now they're selling rebellion all up to me
They're selling rebellion because right now it's what I need

Could you sell me enough?

Security an emotional need
We're all the same made from the same machine
We could rise up to take a stand but they are waiting and one step ahead

Now they're selling rebellion all up to you
Selling rebellion because they see it in you

Take it and make it all my own
I paid good money to feel safe
I believe everything
I buy therefore I am
There's something that I'm looking for
The thing that promises me more
A mass production of what makes me who I am

Escape from this mundane life
They tell you you need something more
You need to be a better man now
Well they've got something for you
But they're going to need to whore you
Could you sacrifice your soul for this?
Well you're going to need to try

I think I found the piece of you
That doesn't come from a package
But they're waiting for it to fail
So they can sell you something new

Seems everything I did was wrong and now everything's gone
Alone and silent, now this time is just for me
I never wanted a part of this that got inside of me
I thought I could get rid of you it's not true
I wanted to get away I've never known what to say
You were behind me but never all the way
And now I'll put up a fight this is destined to end tonight
A course of action, execution, start the sequence go!

One, Two, I'll start with you because you had the most to lose
Three, Four, on the ground, humanity is going down
Five, Six, now attack, this time with no touchbacks
Seven, Eight, in spite of all our instincts we must strike

Mass of destruction lies in my wake, all this is for me to take

You were beside me but this revenge is just for me
This tidal wave of obsessive rage needing to satiate
The forces behind a hostile state

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten
All bets are off this time we're shutting off
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten
And now, that's right, you all fall down

Taking my attack stance right now
Making sure you all get knocked down
Don't try anything that gets in my way
This time no one gets a say

One, Two, I'll start with you because you had the most to lose
Three, Four, on the ground, your whole world crashing down
Five, Six, now attack, it's time for payback
Seven, Eight, now I know everyone has got to go, now STRIKE!

Now it's all black
And feelings will conquer logic
So I crept out the back
Hopefully no one noticed

They said it's suicide
She's trapped inside her mind
She tastes like cyanide
Poisoned right through

I said I'm sorry
There was nothing I could do
You saw right through me
It's something I could never do

I thought you would laugh
But nothing prepared me for this
When nature strikes back
Who knew she would be so wicked?

She looks so peaceful now
Just like a doll somehow
But they don't see what I can see
She got to them and now she's coming for me

I'm sorry
There was nothing I could do
You saw right through me
It's something I could never do

She said disappear
That's something I'm good at too
It you don't keep quiet
They just might hear you too

I looked up to you
Idolized all you do
Was I the one that you pinned this on?
Well you won't get to blame me anymore

They said it's suicide
She's trapped inside her mind
But they don't see what I can see
That she's poisoned right through

I told you that I don't know where she could be
But I know that she is laughing down at me
They whispered;
'This one looks smug in her pink dress'
I fled the scene
She's innocent but she's a mess

I'm sorry
There was nothing I could do
You saw right through me
It's something I could never do

Now it's all black
And feelings will conquer logic
And nature strikes back
Who knew she would be so wicked?

I saw your shadow in the darkened hall
You walked right over me, not knowing of your impending fall
And now they seek out you
They're worshipping your eternal pain
But with technology comes insecurity and a lack of faith

I'm here to calm you down
I'm here to calm you down, but it's over
It's over
It's over
Yes, it's over

You're in a tragic prison (it's over)
So desperate to get out (it's over)
I hope you find your way out (it's over)
I'm scared you can't exist (it's over)

The worst is over now
You should go to sleep and try not to dream
I'd try to talk to you, but I'm afraid of what you could bring
I know that one woman couldn't change the world, but you've changed this girl
A tortured place to be, I hope that you could find what you need

I'm here to calm you down
I'm here to calm you down, but it's over
It's over
It's over
Yes, it's over

You're in a tragic prison (it's over)
So desperate to get out (it's over)
I hope you find your way out (it's over)
I'm scared you can't exist (it's over)

And if you're trying to find me, you've found me
And if you're trying to find me, you've found me
And if you're trying to find me, you've found me
And if you're trying to find me, you've found me

Someone told me you should never trust a desperate man
Keep your head straight with your eyes on the final prize
Don't lose the focus now
Fighting forward
There will always be the ones who question everything
I've always noticed
There's nothing bigger than all of the little things

It's what I'm waiting for
I've never wanted more

There's no telling just what we could do
Just have to get through this
I don't know what they want me to see
I just know that they don't see me
I'm concealed, silent threat too
I'm infiltrating through

I'm pushing through all sides
I've swallowed my pride
Just to be the one
Unchanged by the tides
With my final breath
I'll open my eyes
Made my way through a system that's left me to die

Crawling under, undetected by the ones who protect everything
A search for power but if you want to be like them you'll have to emulate
Finding a way through to the core and the center of everything
Imperfect system
I don't know what I strive to be in this pointless place

But I am waiting for something that gives me more

Infiltrating through the system
Not enough just to survive
Walking on the edge of nothing
Getting burned to feel alive

I think I know you
Sometimes I want to be you
No one knows why
but the grass always greener from the depths of the inside

And I want to laugh and I want to smile somewhere else for a while
Afraid of life but scared to die
I know it's strange so never mind
I's not real..
Real..
Real..

Every fear and every passion, I tied it to you
So if you push me under water, I'll drown facing you
And I know just what you're thinking, I destroy reality
But it's hard when on my back is shattered angel wings

I think you know me
but you want to be me
I don't know why
when uncertainty and fear are the reigners of this mind

My strength has left me now
It's faded like the sun in wintertime
And things that glitter also die alone
Nothing lasts through time
It's not real
Real..
Real..

Every fear and every passion, I tied it to you
So if you push me under water, I'll drown facing you
And I know just what you're thinking, I destroy reality
But it's hard when on my back is shattered angel wings

I close my eyes
I've fallen, you caught me
I'm drowning, can't rise above
This is my life
In the sky

And I know just what you're thinking, I destroy reality
But it's hard when on my back is shattered angel wings

Confusion emerges..
Confusion emerges..
Takes critisism..
Life..

I've fallen, you caught me
I'm drowning, can't rise above

I feel something isn't right
I think it is this world
When there's nothing left to fight
We all fall down

We need a breakthrough
We need a breakthrough
We need a breakthrough now
We need a breakthrough

All I need is to know you're out there
Another chance may be somewhere
But we want to start it all again
Follow me down

Alone middle of the night
It is the end of this world
I'd give everything I have
Just to get out

Took playing god one step too far
How could we been mistaken?
Man ruled from a counterfeit throne
We followed him down

Called it a breakthrough
Called it a breakthrough
We need a breakthrough now
We need a breakthrough

All I need is to know you're out there
Another chance may be somewhere
But we want to start it all again
Follow me down

Nothing left for me to wish for
Wanting you is detrimental
All I have is the beating of my heart
We all fall down

You're my shining star
Tell me where you are
You're my shining star
Tell me where you are

Do you dream of me?

We need a breakthrough
We need a breakthrough
We need a breakthrough now
We need a breakthrough

All I need is to know you're out there
Another chance may be somewhere
But we want to start it all again
Follow me down

Nothing left for me to wish for
Wanting you is detrimental
All I have is the beating of my heart
We all fall down

Follow me down..
Follow me down..

Tell me how to feel
Show me what is real
I tried to back away but everwhere's the same
And in this over-conscious world all I want to do is dream

I don't know what you held on to
To get this far but I need some too

Because I'm slipping from existence
And there's just no resistence
To stop this all from happening

Today the pain
It got so bad I had to scream

I'm cutting myself
Because I cannot face
The world around me
Is nothing
I'm cutting up myself
Because there's no way out
Dispersing what I feel
So I feel nothing

I don't know what to do
To be as numb as you
I must be doing something wrong to always feel this down
With an overwhelming urge to shout at those around

I tried to reach out to the past
But the lesson learned is to not look back
The memories will just confuse
An overwhelmed and frightened youth

I've learned to accept it
I know that that's pathetic
I can't explain to others
I know that they'll reject it

Today the pain
It got so bad I had to scream

I'm cutting myself
Because I cannot face
The world around me
Is nothing
I'm cutting up myself
Because there's no way out
Dispersing what I feel
So I feel nothing

Today the pain
It got so bad I had to scream
Today the pain
It felt so bad I had to scream
I had to scream
I had to scream
I had to scream

I walk alone
I tried my hand at something new
Without you
I'm better off
And on my own
I've fallen countless times but I've realized
I'm better off

I'm forgetting the mess that we were
Give and take
An eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
A sigh for a sigh
A lie for a lie

Without you I'm better off
Without you I'm better off

You were my device
A crutch that sustained me through life
Too crippled to put you aside
I never knew why
An eye for an eye
A bruise for a bruise
Was never enough
To satisfy you

I know you're suffering
I'd like to change your fate
But I sense a lack of trust in me

I'll give you everything
I give the weak man strength
Eliminate what makes you weak

Do you want to know where the wind blows?
Do you feel the same when the winds change?
Do you want to know where the wind blows, today?

The story of your life
Never get it right
Sleepless through the night
I will be there

Spending all your time
Defending what is right
While afraid to take a side
I won't be there

Here we are again
Thought you knew everything
If you could only see the world through me

I take the rich man's greed
Then knock him down to me
To fill his eyes with what he is

Would you want to know where the wind blows?
Do you feel the same when the winds change?

Do you want to know where the wind blows, today?

The story of your life
Never get it right
Sleepless through the night
I will be there

The weakest of your kind
You're crippled and so blind
Flickering, then dying
I am not there

Never know
Where you are
Where to go
How far

Never know (never know)
Where you are (where you are)
Flickering (flickering)
Like a star

I never thought you'd do the things you said you would
You always wanted more than this small life could give
Immortalized you
God-sized you
Live forever
Now you've achieved it all
And no one wants to compare

Never know (never know)
Where you are (where you are)
Immortalized and God-sized

Never know (never know)
Where you are (where you are)
Flickering (flickering)
Like a star

I've been listening to this song for hours
And my head aches but that doesn't stop me
It keeps repeating and now my eyes burn
They have turned red
And I do this to myself
I should get out
But there is nowhere to go on a Tuesday night
This restless feeling
There is no cure for
So I wait

It's a lovely day
To never feel this way again
And will I ever find
Someone who understands my mind?
I don't think so
It's just a sea of faces and vacant stares
And they will never be in this place again

I have your number
But I won't call it
I fear rejection more than being alone
I'm almost nauseous
Maybe I'm dying?
Over dramatic, but that's what happens
When you have too much time to think about the end
The lights look blurry now
And the cars pass by me on an energetic street
That I have no part of

It's a lovely day
To never feel this way again
And will I ever find
Someone who understands my mind?
I don't think so
It's just a sea of faces and vacant stares
And they will never be in this place again

I will wait for you to find me
But I know you never will
I will seek to you to save me
But I know you never will
I will try to regain passion
But I'm faltering
I will try to overcome this
But I'm overwhelmed again

Lovely day
Feel this way
Lovely place
Never feel this way

Somehow, it feels I'm getting more frustrated
With every tongue-tied, wild-eyed, overrated
Narcissistic, self-absorbed
Spawn of generation bored

Want to see you vulnerable
I am not your equal
Ruling with an iron fist
And you are on my bad list

Routine casualty
Razor-sharp beauty queens
Bridges built, bridges burned
You will get what you deserve

What did they do
Made you so awful
Why do you say
The stupid things you do
The ones you've hurt
I hope they hurt you too
The things you've done
Will eat away at you

And now I think I'm done caring
Too many mindless, self-obsessed, overbearing
Misogynistic, plastic hearts
Can't wait to see you torn apart

Want to see you vulnerable
I am not your equal
Ruling with an iron fist
And you are on my bad list

Routine casualty
Razor-sharp beauty queens
Bridges built, bridges burned
You will get what you deserve

What did they do
Made you so awful
Why do you say
The stupid things you do
The ones you've hurt
I hope they hurt you too
The things you've done
Will eat away at you

What did they do
Made you so awful
Why do you say
The stupid things you do
The ones you've hurt
I hope they hurt you too
The things you've done
Will eat away at you

You've made this list
You won't be missed
You'll have to learn
Some things you don't deserve

What did they do
Made you so awful
Why do you say
The stupid things you do
The ones you've hurt
I hope they hurt you too
The things you've done
Will eat away at you

The things you've done
Will eat away at you

The things you've done
Will eat away at you

I'm withered inside
I've never wanted something so blindly
How does one comprehend
Dissatisfaction with the unknown
I've been bound too long to this confining shell
Like a tiny hell that can't calm this restless mind
My blood pulses to fuel desire

Insect calm
My limbs are numb
Resistance gone
I'm shedding skin
Feed and breathe in

Insect calm
The fear is gone
Itching and feeling
My new skin
Inhale this world in

I've left all behind
These winds have changed
And there is no way back
Why can't you see this all will fall
This microcosm is not eternal
My thirst will not subside
I'd rather face the storm, get ripped open wide
Then my insect eyes
Will see this wretched world for all it hides

Insect calm
My limbs are numb
Resistance gone
I'm shedding skin
Feed and breathe in

Insect calm
The fear is gone
Itching and feeling
My new skin
Inhale this world in

Insect calm
My limbs are numb
Resistance gone
I'm shedding skin
Feed and breathe in

Put down the gun, put down the gun
Put down the gun, put down the gun

Put down the gun, put down the gun
Put down the gun, put down the gun

Put down the gun, put down the gun
Put down the gun, put down the gun

Put down the gun
Put it down

"Shut up," he said
"Let me speak for a minute or two or three
Now you're gonna stop interrupting me"
So what ya gonna do?
'Cause looking in his face shows a life revealing years of pain
So we'll drop down, let go all because he said so

Boys - with shiny violent killing
Toys - it's all a bit too real now
Noise - this cycle will continue
Boys

Put down the gun, put down the gun
Put down the gun, put down the gun

Put down the gun, put down the gun
Put down the gun, put down the gun

Put down the gun, put down the gun
Put down the gun, put down the gun

Put down the gun
Put it down, put it down, put it down

Shut up, my turn
To be heard using force is all that occured to him
And now he's blaming everyone, 'cause he's always been a victim
He's filled with rage, heart beating so fast, don't set him off
I try to make a move but the little boy says, "Shut up or I'll kill ya"

Put it down, put it down, put it down
Shut up or I'll kill ya
Put it down, put it down, put it down
Put it down, put it down

Boys - with shiny violent killing
Toys - it's all a bit too real now
Noise - this cycle will continue
Boys - 'cause we can't all be heroes

Boys - with shiny violent killing
Toys - it's all a bit too real now
Noise - this cycle will continue
Boys - 'cause we can't all be heroes

Put down the gun, put down the gun
Put down the gun, put down the gun

Put down the gun, put down the gun
Put down the gun, put down the gun

Put down the gun, put down the gun
Put down the gun, put down the gun

Put down the gun
Put it down, put it down, put it down

Scatter gun
It's a war game, making enemies and allies
Scatter gun
Pushed too hard, too fast, totally offside
Scatter gun
Big gun in the hands of a greedy man
Scatter gun
Take a hit, take a shot, just to take a stand

Put it down, put it down, put it down
Put it down, put it down, put it down
Put it down, put it down, put it down
Put it down, put it down, put it down

I sit next to you
You look the other way
You saw me falter for one second of the day
Why am I so invisible to you?
Sometimes I hate you more than you could ever hate yourself

But I love you, would do anything for you
You don't even see that I'm in pain
Frustration became humiliation
Waiting outside for you in the pouring rain
Rain, rain
Rain, rain

Tried so hard to be someone
I never was nobody
Tried too hard to play this game
I never was the winner

Tried so hard to be someone
I never was nobody
Tried too hard to play this game
I never was the winner

What's left of my self worth - you crushed it in your hand
Wicked game to torture me because you can
You toy with me, then pull back
We're never synched in time, we blew that

The sad thing
I've done the same before to someone else

But I love you, would do anything for you
You don't even see that I'm in pain
Frustration becomes humiliation
I'm waiting outside for you in the pouring rain
Rain, rain
Rain, rain

Tried so hard to be someone
I never was nobody
Tried too hard to play this game
I never was the winner

Tried so hard to be someone
I never was nobody
Tried too hard to play this game
I never was the winner

Tried so hard to be someone
I never was nobody
Tried too hard to play this game
I never was the winner

Tried so hard to be someone
I never was nobody
Tried too hard to play this game
I never was the winner

But I love you, would do anything for you
You don't even see that I'm in pain
Frustration became humiliation
Waiting outside for you in the pouring rain
Rain, rain
Rain, rain

Tried so hard to be someone
I never was nobody
Tried too hard to play this game
I never was the winner

Tried so hard to be someone
I never was nobody
Tried too hard to play this game
I never was the winner

Tried so hard to be someone
I never was nobody
Tried too hard to play this game
I never was the winner

Tried so hard to be someone
I never was nobody
Tried too hard to play this game
I never was the winner

I've got a secret
I've been watching you
I know you're damaged
But I still want you
You're analog trash
When life is digital
But I prefer you
I think you're beautiful

Pull back, realign
We are flawed by design
Unplug just for fun
Stop before we hurt someone
Standard uniform
Corporate life has gone too far
Excess commodity
I want you just for me

This little secret
Gives me something to do
My new obsession
To be like you
You're analog trash
When life is digital
But I prefer this
Unreplicatable

Pull back, realign
We are flawed by design
Unplug just for fun
Stop before we hurt someone
Standard uniform
Corporate life has gone too far
Excess commodity
I want you just for me
I want you just for me
I want you just for me
I want you just for me
I want you just for me

I've got a secret
I've been watching you
I know you're damaged
But I still want you
You're analog trash
When life is digital
But I prefer you
I think you're beautiful

Come on
It's not what you think
Come on
Just come away with me
Come on
There's so much more to this
Come on
That life you will not miss

Pull back, realign
We are flawed by design
Unplug just for fun
Stop before we hurt someone
Standard uniform
Corporate life has gone too far
Excess commodity
I want you just for me
I want you just for me
I want you just for me
I want you just for me
I want you just for me

I want you just for me
I want you just for me
I want you just for me

Just when I think it's getting better
I relapse back to this place
Where the scenery has changed
Now it's terrifying
How can I go back
When it's much too late

Piece by piece
Bit by bit
My heart aches
And I feel sick
Things you say and things you can't
Things you threw away and things you want back
The fact that I've lost you
Erases all my sanity
Seriously, how could anyone carry on like this
I'll never look at things the same because of you
And I'll never get that moment back I shared with you

It only hurts when I remember
I know you're trying to make it better

Bit by bit
My heart breaks
Your voice repeats and I can't take it anymore
Don't compromise
Save yourself
I'll always be here
Don't say goodbye
I'm not through with you
Don't compromise
Don't say goodbye

I tried and tried
My head is full of memories
And sleepless nights
An endless cycle
I tried and tried
These thoughts just drag me down

It only hurts when I remember
I know you're trying to make it better

I cannot steer this ship without you
There's no light guiding me to shore
I'm just left drowning in these nightmares
Where will I go, I don't know
Let it go
Can't let you go
Let it go

It only hurts when I remember
I know you're trying to make it better

It only hurts when I remember
I know you're trying to make it better

When I see you there facing your rival
To everyone it's clear you're in denial
And now it's come to this
I thought it never would
Now I see you here facing your rival
And you're stuck!
And you're stuck!

Elimination time pending survival
And when it comes to pricks, you take the title
You'll have to suck it up
Suck it up
Don't you look at me, I'm not your rival
Just stop!
Just stop!

You're faking, you're faking
You're faking, faking
Faking, faking

You find yourself in the same situation
When will you learn to avoid mutilation?
You've missed again and there's no telling
When you will recover from this one, it's a big deal
You're dead inside is a minor understatement
More like guts scraped on the edge of the pavement
Tiny words, tiny thoughts, things that make you fear
You play dead, but we know that you're faking it

Faking, faking, faking
Faking, faking, faking
Faking, faking, faking
Faking

I hope I'm dreaming
'Cause this can't be awake
I hope I'm dead
Just for my sake
Who knew all this would come
From a dirty gun
Son of a bitch
You thought he was a cowboy

The mad hatter bashes your face again
Look into his eyes and see where evil lives
Bullet through window
And down the rabbit hole
This is one fucked up fairy tale

Hey you, black and blue
Don't end up like Alice
Hey you, black and blue
Watch out, you'll end up like Alice

Hey you, black and blue
Don't end up like Alice
Hey you, black and blue
Watch out, you'll end up like Alice

You'll get what's coming
You and your children
The wicked witch has OD'd on pills again
And the dragon lights up a cigarette
He's blowing smoke right into your face again
It's off with their heads

Snakes are seething
The big bad wolf is rabid and teething
Bullet through window
And down the rabbit hole
This is one fucked up fairy tale

Hey you, black and blue
Don't end up like Alice
Hey you, black and blue
Watch out, you'll end up like Alice

Hey you, black and blue
Don't end up like Alice
Hey you, black and blue
Watch out, you'll end up like Alice

Little pig, little pig
Put her down
Slapped around
Choked and drowned

Little pig, little pig
Put her down
Slapped around
Choked and drowned

Little pig, little pig
Put her down
Slapped around
Choked and drowned

Little pig, little pig
Put her down
Slapped around
Choked and drowned

Hey you, black and blue
Don't end up like Alice
Hey you, black and blue
Watch out, you'll end up like Alice

Hey you, black and blue
Don't end up like Alice
Hey you, black and blue
Watch out, you'll end up like Alice

Hey you, black and blue
Don't end up like Alice

Spit it out it, tastes unfamiliar
Bite your tongue before she shuts you up
What can you do now when she wants you
Wants you to fall down
She'll do the same again

No more girl next door
Actions with no remorse
Burned up and marked for death
She's watching you as you hold your breath
Blink and blink again
Petty hearts are no one's friend
True sin lies within her

She used her heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet

Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet

She can't love you
Just wants a reaction
But don't give in
Deny satisfaction
There's no love in her
She just used her heart for a bullet

Want to forget
But you just can't help it
Unfazed, grip's tight
She'll make you break
What other side effects
When another heart
It starts to defect
With no warranty

I think we've met the enemy
Conquest is on her mind today
She can't help it

No more girl next door
Actions with no remorse
Burned up and marked for death
She's watching you as you hold your breath
Blink, blink again
Petty hearts are no one's friend
True sin lies within her

She used her heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet

Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet

She can't love you
Just wants a reaction
But don't give in
Deny satisfaction
There's no love in her
She just used her heart for a bullet
She used her

She used her heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet

Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet

Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet

Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet
Heart for a bullet

She can't love you
Just wants a reaction
But don't give in
Deny satisfaction
There's no love in her
She just used her heart for a bullet

You know him
He's the one who leaves you high and dry
You know this
It takes six seconds on all sides
You know him
He'll compromise your alibi
You know him
He'll make you feel like you cannot survive

Totally sadistic
Won't tolerate submissive
Never underestimate his drive
Couldn't see him coming
You're walking, but he's running
You'll be catching up for miles

I was trained to beat you
I couldn't get past you
But can I outlast?
I couldn't outlast you
You shouldn't be here
But look what I can do
Don't show me something
Unless it's something new

I was trained to beat you
I couldn't beat you
I couldn't beat you
I couldn't beat you

You know him
He's the one who leaves you high and dry
You know this
It takes six seconds on all sides

Totally sadistic
Won't tolerate submissive
Never underestimate his drive

You're my drug
Twisted lust
I can't get up
I don't feel sober
Burning skin to the touch
Leave the shame to your subconscious
And the kiss from your mouth
Left a taste that pushed me over

I think we're crazy in lust
I think I'm crazy in love with you
We ought to stop this
Now, now, now is when I want it
Talk's useless and overrated
Now we have to try to stop this all from happening

It gets inside my head
It picks apart my rules
It's a game
One that I love to lose
And it stings
And there's fear
And it grips me all over
I feel pain, but I'd die
If I can't have this moment

I think we're crazy in lust
I think I'm crazy in love with you
We ought to stop this
Now, now, now is when I want it
Talk's useless and overrated
Now we have to try to stop this all from happening

Now, now, now is when I want it
Talk's useless and overrated
Now we have to try to stop this all
And you're my poison

Take it all
Take my pride
I want you now
You're my poison
Now

Mirror, mirror on the wall
I'm just someone with no self-control
You don't know the real me
But you get a glimpse
So you paint a picture
So vivid, but just so wrong
This little girl is broken this time
Broken
I've seen things no one should ever have to see
I paint a smile to tell the world I'm doing fine
While everything I've known flies out the window

I just want to leave this situation
I don't want to reach this destination
Can't you see I've lost the motivation
I want to leave this situation

Mirror, mirror on the wall
You see a girl with no self-control
You ask what I want
It's complicated
The truth is I don't know
I guess it's not enough to be there sometimes
Sometimes
But I've been dealt a hand no one should ever have to play
I guess I've really messed up this time
Messed up this time
But I'm too tired to fake the strength behind this lie

I just want to leave this situation
I don't want to reach this destination
Can't you see I've lost the motivation
I want to leave this situation

And now I sit here
All alone and bored
My head is filled with advice I once ignored
That all you get from this moment
Is all you gave to your past
And all you get from this moment
Is what you gave to your past

I'm turning to the next thing
And I laugh just for this moment
I'm crying on the bathroom floor
Because nothing is the same

I'm turning to the next one
Then we're laughing for the moment
I'm crying on the bathroom floor
I cannot regain strength

I just want to leave this situation
I don't want to reach this destination
Can't you see I've lost the motivation
I want to leave this situation

I just want to leave this situation
I don't want to reach this destination
Can't you see I've lost the motivation
I want to leave this situation

And now I sit here
All alone and bored
My head is filled with advice I once ignored
That all you get from this moment
Is all you gave to your past
And all you get from this moment
Is what you gave to your past

Feel the twilight glow
In the falling snow
And here you are
Smiling at me like you can't feel the cold
Hand in hand we walk
There's no need to say a word
With no other sounds but the
Gentle sigh of an icy exhale

The world looks good dead
It looks so good dead you said
It looks so good dead
It looks so good dead instead

Even though
Your body was cold
When I embraced you
I swear I've never felt something so warm

The world looks good dead
It looks so good dead you said
The world looks good dead
It looks so good dead instead

A slowing pulse
My lips are blue
I kiss to feel the calm in you
It's strange I'm sure
But I prefer
The lifelessness of the world

A slowing pulse
My lips are blue
I kiss to feel the calm in you
It's strange I'm sure
But I prefer
The lifelessness of the world

I love you
It's all that's true
I want together to grow old
You know that
We're not perfect
But I think together we'll come close
It's hard to
Accept that
Things will change and that's for sure
If we make it
We'll look back
And know we'll always have winter

The world looks good dead
It looks so good dead you said
The world looks good dead
It looks so good dead instead

I was walking on down the alley
When a face I've never seen
Came so from deep in the darkness
And his mouth came on real mean

And I saw that he'd been liquored
And he staggered up to - you know - he staggered up to his feet
And he said, "Boy, you'd better move real slow
And gimme your money please."
He said, "Gimme your money please."

Wasn't that strange
Wasn't that strange indeed
Wasn't that strange
Wasn't that strange indeed
He said, "Gimme your money please."
He said, "Gimme your money please."

Being born and raised in New York
There ain't nothing you won't see
'Cause the streets are filled with bad goings-on
And you know that's no place to be

But my car broke down in the evening
You know it just stopped stone cold
Stopped stone cold in the street
And a dirty mean man with sharp glass eyes
He said, "Gimme your money please."
He said, "Gimme your money please."

Wasn't that strange
Wasn't that strange indeed
Wasn't that strange
Wasn't that strange indeed
He said, "Gimme your money please."
He said, "Gimme your money please."

Being born and raised in New York
There ain't nothing you won't see
'Cause the streets are filled with bad goings-on
And you know that's no place to be

But my car broke down in the evening
You know it just stopped stone cold
Stopped stone cold in the street
And a dirty mean man with a shotgun in his hand
He said, "Gimme your money please."
He said, "Gimme your money please."

Wasn't that strange
Wasn't that strange indeed
Wasn't that strange
Wasn't that strange indeed
He said, "Gimme your money please."
He said, "Gimme your money please."
He said, "Gimme your money please."
He said, "Gimme your money please."
(Awww!)

Headed 'cross the border
Looking for a place to play
I left the sun behind
I don't mind
But I think that it looked like rain

Hold back the water
I gotta find time to burn
Hold back the water
I gotta find time to burn

Headed west to Georgia
Looking for the road to L.A.
They say the weather's fine
But the sun don't shine
'Cause the smog's always in the way

Hold back the water
I gotta find time to burn
Hold back the water (Yo!)
I gotta find time to burn

I've never played no smoker
You know I've never played no hotdog
The preacher say
I was born this way
With storm cloud in my heart

Hold back the water
I gotta find time to burn
Hold back the water
I gotta find time to burn
I gotta find time to burn
I gotta find time to burn
I gotta find time to burn (Whooo)

Headed 'cross the border
Looking for a place to play
I left the sun behind
I don't mind
But I think that it looked like rain

Hold back the water
I gotta find time to burn

Hold back the water (Yo!)
I gotta find time to burn
I gotta find time to burn
I gotta find time to burn
I gotta find time to burn

Hold back the water (Hey!)
I gotta find time to burn

Walk your street
And I'll walk mine
And should we meet
Would you spare me some time?
Cuz you should see my world,
Meet my kind, and before you judge our minds
Blue collar

Sleep your sleep
I'm awake and alive
I keep late hours
You're a nine to five
So I would like you to know
I need the quiet hours to create in this world of mine
Blue collar

I'd like you to know at four in the morning, things are comin' to mind
All I see, all I've done, and those I hope to find
I'd like to remind you at four in the morning my world is very still
The air is fresh under diamond skies, makes me glad to be alive

You keep that beat
And I keep time
Your restless face
Is no longer mine
I rest my feet while this world's in heat and I wish that you could do the same
Blue collar

Money
She always gets a chance
Music
She sure knows how to dance

She's a high-flying woman so reach for the sky
She's gonna knock you down then pass on by

She's a high-stepping prancer
A tried true romancer
She's a little gandy dancer
And she's too much for me (Ow!)
Little gandy dancer

Broken
She left me with a broken heart
Spinnin'
I don't know how to start

She's a low-flying woman she dragged me around
She'll get you high on love then knock you down

She's a high-stepping prancer
A tried true romancer
She's a little gandy dancer
And she's too much for me (Ow! Ow!)
Little gandy dancer

Dance, dance, dance little gandy dancer
Dance, dance, dance little gandy dancer...

Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance...

Dance on, beauty

Had a widow down in Boston
You know she really trusted me
Then I ran away to Cleveland
From a brand new bride-to-be

Held a preacher's plate in Memphis
On a dark cold Sunday night
By Tuesday was in Alabam'
Showing people how to do it right

I'm a down and out man
Guess you wonder why I am
I'm a down and out man
Guess you wonder why I am

Tried to boogie in a honky-tonk
But my old guitar was out of tune
That's when they didn't like my music
So they tried to throw me out the room

I was living in a funky world
They were living in three four time
All my friends are into rock and roll
Or they ain't no friends of mine

I'm a down and out man
Guess you wonder why I am
I'm a down and out man
Guess you wonder why I am

(Down and out man)
(Guess you wonder why I am)
I'm a down and out man
Guess you wonder why I am
I'm a down and out man
Guess you wonder why I am

(Down and out man)
(Guess you wonder why I am)
I'm a down and out man
Guess you wonder why I am
I'm a down and out man
Guess you wonder why I am

Everybody's been standing around like they're ready
Everybody's been going around carrying signs

Come on and get a few things back together
And don't get lost in the stormy weather
Or when you're flying like birds of a feather

Don't get yourself in trouble
Don't get yourself in trouble
Don't get yourself in trouble
Don't get yourself in trouble
(Here comes trouble now)

Everybody's been standing around like they're ready
Everybody's been going around carrying signs

Just keep on dancing to the music
It's the only way you're gonna use it
And when you shake your money maker

Don't get yourself in trouble
Don't get yourself in trouble
Don't get yourself in trouble
Don't get yourself in trouble

Everybody's been standing around like they're ready
Everybody's been going around carrying signs

Come on and get a few things back together
Don't get lost in the stormy weather
And when you're flying around like birds of a feather

Don't get yourself in trouble
Don't get yourself in trouble
Don't get yourself in trouble
Don't get yourself in trouble

Thank you for the feelin'
But I think I've had enough
For the sun came late this morning
And I sure am feeling rough

Been this way for hours
Just can't seem to clear my head
Thank you for the feelin'
But I should have stayed in bed

What a night I had
Never been so right
Find a pretty face
Stayed there most the night

Fed me wine and laughter
Dandied up so tight
I don't remember coming home
And I'm not going back tonight

I'd like to thank you
I'd like to thank you
I'd like to thank you for the feelin'

I'd like to thank you
I'd like to thank you
I'd like to thank you for the feelin'
(Give it some feelin')

Thank you for the feelin'
But I think I've had enough
For the sun came late this morning
And I sure am feeling rough

Been this way for hours
Just can't seem to clear my head
Thank you for the feelin'
But I should have stayed in bed

Had a devil's face
Emotion that could melt
Why so many dozen men
A love they'd never felt

Took me home, shared a dream
Knew just what I'd like
I don't remember coming home
And I'm not going back tonight

I'd like to thank you
I'd like to thank you
I'd like to thank you for the feelin'

I'd like to thank you
I'd like to thank you
I'd like to thank you for the feelin'

I'd like to thank you
I'd like to thank you
I'd like to thank you for the feelin'

I'd like to thank you

I used to smoke my face out
Right through the sky
I used to love to freak out
Do you wonder why
I'd hear the Stones rollin'
And I'd roll too
I didn't care what I was doin'
As long as I was with you

I was blown (woo woo)
And that's what you are now
I was blown (woo woo)
Didn't care why or how
I was blown (woo woo)
Rant jump and scream
I was blo-o-own
Right inside a dream

I used to tell my story
Right out loud
I sure was in my glory
I sure was proud
But then one day I fell down
I couldn't get up
People crowdin' all around
That's when they locked me up

I get up early in the morning
And rush to catch a plane
I'm gonna live inside my suitcase
Back on the road again

Big stage and bright lights
Try to relax before the show
So glad to be here tonight
That I just can't wait to go, I gotta go

Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
It feels good

I'm going to save up all my money
Just to see if I could
Try to brighten my appearance
With clothes from Hollywood

We're climbing up the music ladder
The girls won't leave us alone
But it really doesn't matter
If we're nothing back home, back home

Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Feels good

Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home, man
It feels good

So glad we left the prairie city
And now we're living on the coast
We went and got ourselves a manager
We all think he's the most

Silver 'vette with gold wheels
We see him cruise around town
No, he's never really up
No, he's never really down down, he's just mojo

Welcome home
Said welcome home, baby
Ah, welcome home
Feels good

Welcome home
So good to drive in your own car with the radio on with your old lady
Said welcome home, brother
Welcome home
So good to sleep in your own bed
Welcome home, babe
Ooh hoo, feels good

I was raised, born and bred in a praire town
When a dark eyed woman really laid the feelings down
We were one, had our fun in our younger years
Well I remember damn well she loved me
And she remembers damn well she cared

Stonegates, closing me in
If I get free won't see me again
Stonegates, wish I could be
Back in the country, wish I was free

I was down, leaving town on a midnight train
When a long legged woman come walking down platform A
She was lean, made a scene as she came my way
Well we traveled on down thru the midwest towns
In Chicago we parted ways

Stonegates, closing me in
If I get free won't see me again
Stonegates, wish I could be
Back in the country, wish I was free

Stonegates, closing me in
If I get free won't see me again
Stonegates, wish I could be
Back in the country, wish I was free

I was down, leaving town on a midnight train
When a long legged woman come walking down platform A
She was lean, made a scene as she came my way
Well we traveled on down thru the midwest towns
In Chicago we parted ways

Stonegates, closing me in
If I get free won't see me again
Stonegates, wish I could be
Back in the country, wish I was free

Move around town

Goodbye, I lied
Don't cry, would you let it ride
Goodbye, I lied
Don't cry, would you let it ride

You can't see the mornin', but I can see the light
(Try, try, try to let it ride)
While you've been out runnin', I've been waitin' half the night
(Try, try, try to let it ride)

And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride
And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride

Seems my life is not complete, I've never see you smile
(Try, try, try to let it ride)
Baby, you want the forgivin' kind and that's just not my style
(Try, try, try to let it ride)

And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride
And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye or would you let it ride

I've been doin' things worthwhile, you've been bookin' time
(Try, try, try to let it ride)

And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye, would you let it ride
And would you cry if I told you that I lied
And would you say goodbye, would you let it ride

Would you let it ride
Would you let it ride
Would you let it ride (yeah, yeah)

You can see'em, the things that you want
But you don't have the means to buy
I've been eyeing what you've got in stock
And I'll tell you what's on my mind
We could meet in a room with a lock
If the world can't reach us, the world could be ours
You like moving all over town, where the music gets down in your heart
I've been watching the things that you shake
And they're driving me out of my mind
Can't you see that I'm here to decide
And the heat from your eyes, just burns my insides
Give it time

Give it time [12x]

Think about it
Wooh Wooh Wooh Wooh Wooh yeah yeah

When I saw you in the clothes that you wore
I dreamed that I was amazed
No, I've never felt this way before
And I'm trying to think what to say, what do I say
Every time when you look at me
In your eyes I can see, there's nothing for free

Give it time [until fade]

Tramp
Have you got a quarter for me
Tramp
I'll even take a dime anytime

Standing on a corner
Living in the street
I got to made a living from
The people that I meet
I'm a tramp
Just a tramp

Spare change hand outs
Begging all the time
I need a story for a song
Some thoughts to put in line
Something good is something gained
Like reaching for a star
I'll get a healthy bank account
A suit and shiny car
