ON
MY OWN You say I’m
unbreakable | And
that you can treat me like I am unstoppable | I
feel no pain. | You
do the unthinkable | It
amazes me when you become unpredictable | When
you’re talking towards me. | You
tell all your friends that you're reaching the end | And
there’s nothing you can say to me | I’ll
figure it out… I’ll figure it out… | On
my own, I’ll fake it through the night | On
my own, I think I’ll be alright | There’s
so much more to show you | But
nothing left to say | I’ll
just be on my way | Changes
in attitude | You’ve
already proved that you would rather have solitude | Keeping
distance from me | Right
now I’m not in the mood | I’ve
seen this place before and it’s a bad neighborhood | That’s
why I moved out. | You
like to pretend that you’re reaching the end | And
there’s nothing you want to say to me | I’ll
figure it out… I’ll figure it out…. | (Chorus) | It’s
over… It’s through | You
never took the time to see me from inside | And
know what’s really there… | (Chorus)
COLLIDE Today
felt like Sunday, I had nothing to do|Instead
it was Monday, I’m here thinking of you | I
don’t need a job, I don’t need to sleep| I’d
be happy with nowhere to go, and you, were stuck
here with me…|I
think that we should collide… Collide…|No
don’t ask me why, just say you’ll try… I
think that we should collide.|You
walked through the front door, I felt the world shake|This
is so picture perfect yeah, I could be your escape…|(Chorus)|I
hope for the best, expecting the worst|I
wish I could say I saw you first|You’ve
already left me… You’ve already left
me… Wanting more!|(Chorus)
YOU
MKAE IT BETTER I
took the pill, I drank the water | I
chased it down, made me feel better | I
wish I had, more time to tell you | Instead
I’m sitting here, curing all the hell you|Put
me through… Put me through… | I
finally realized why I, Spent my time with you. | You
make it better You make it better to be alone | You
make together seem like some place I just don’t
want to go. | Two
years have passed, and you’re still crying | I
wish I knew, why you keep trying | To
break me down… To break me down… | I
finally realized why I, Needed you around! | (Chorus) | I
want to thank you for Giving peace of mind | I
know that talking to you Would not erase the lines | That
you’ve drawn, that you’ve drawn It’s
time to grow up. | (Chorus)
x2
EVERYTHING You’re
having a bad day And I’d hate to think that
I was to blame | But
I get the notion I can’t help you From feeling
this way. | No,
I never meant to hurt you I’d just be digging
my own grave | I
never knew that someone could walk into my life and
take away the rain. | You’re
everything that I want in a woman | You’re
everything that I need right now | You’re
everything that I want in a woman | And
you ended up with me somehow. | You
know its been a long time since I found the answers | To
questions that sang into my mind Every time I was down,
and trust me that’s a lot of time. | Oh
but there you were Like a scene taken straight out
of a movie | I
stood motionless as I stared across the room But it
didn’t take much for you to..move me. | (Chorus) | Just
when I thought that the world needed a new rain king | You
came and told me things that I never heard before | I’d
like to think I became a better man | I’ll
do everything I can, to keep you satisfied… | (Chorus)
COME
BACK DOWN
This can’t be easy But I’ve never
been in your shoes before | Just
try to stay busy Maybe a future will knock on your door. |
On and on, on and on, you sing your song… |
On and on, on and on, you sing your song… It
goes… |
La di da, La di da, La di da di |
I can hear it in your voice You should come back, just
come back… down. |
You must be crazy If you think that I can relate to
something like this |
My memory’s hazy I can’t remember a smile
on your face. |
On and on, on and on, you sing your song… |
On and on, on and on, you sing your song… It
goes… |
(Chorus) |
On and on, you sing your song… Everything is
wrong |
When I hear you sing your song… | (Chorus)
COULD'VE TOLD YOU THAT I could've told you that
| I
could’ve told you anything you wanted me to say
|
But maybe I’m just too shy anyway
| To say the
things that make you want to stay
| I guess I let a good
thing pass me by
| Sometimes we don’t say what
we mean to say
|
And then it blows up in your face just like a bomb
|
I thought I knew you well
| enough to cast a spell
| Right
in your direction
| (Chorus)
| I need you (That’s
what I should’ve said)
|
I need you (That’s what I should’ve said)
|
I want you (That’s what I should’ve said)
|
I want you (That’s what I should’ve said)
|
I’m sorry (That’s what I should’ve
said)
|
I’m sorry (That’s what I should’ve
said)
| I’d die for you (That’s what I should’ve
said)
|
I’d die… for… you
| (Chorus)
| Sometimes
we don’t say what we mean to say
|
And then it blows up in your face just like a bomb.
GIRL
WHO SAVED THE WORLD I wish that I could save
this girl But she’s too distracted by the world
| She thinks with the
snap of her fingers she could make everything ok
| And everytime she
leaves, I should’ve done something to make her
stay. |
This is not the way to change the world No No No!
| This is not the way
to keep a girl from leaving
| But she’s leaving,
to go and save the world.
| I can’t change
your point of view You’re gonna do what you wanna
do |
But maybe for a minute you will open up your eyes and
see the light of day
| Sit back, relax,
and listen to everything I’ve got to say.
| (Chorus)
| I tried to stop her
without good reason My selfishness won’t win this
time |
A hard rain’s falling, flash floods crawling There’s
no escaping |
She can’t even save herself.
| (Chorus)
REMINDS
ME Sixteen
hours on a road to nowhere |
Think I should turn around and head towards somewhere |
To the places we have never been. |
I’ve counted forty two planes that have crossed
the sky |
And everyone reminds me of you and I |
And how our love could soar through the atmosphere. |
Everything reminds me of her Everything reminds me
of her |
I can escape, the look on her face when I left home. |
Hotel room with a broken mirror |
Turn the lights off make me think much clearer |
Of destinations that may lie ahead. |
A right turn would take to north of nowhere |
A left would put me back to somewhere |
To the place that we have never been. |
(CHORUS) |
It’s strange how a little bit of love could get
me so tied up |
It’s strange how a little bit of love could get
me so dried up |
Every time I think of you I feel like I should turn
around |
Every time I think of you, |
You put me back on common ground______
STUPID
LOVE
I feel like I’m going down
| Caught in the
undertow |
Fighting gravity, but it’s. |
Pulling me baby, it’s pulling me baby more everyday |
It’s pulling me baby, I can’t get away. |
I’m your stupid love I’m your stupid love |
I’m your stupid love Please don’t let me
go. |
None have a look like yours The kind that can hypnotize |
This ghost keeps haunting me |
When I see him in the mirror, we look the same |
He only buys you roses to ease all the pain. |
(Chorus) |
This is not, how love’s, supposed to be But I
put all the blame on me. |
(Chorus)
IF
I LIED
When you’re in love, you think you’ve,
got something good |
And you could never play the fool |
That was not the case, I swear, I tried to be strong
But I broke all the rules. |
Rules of love, rules of life, Rules we follow just
to survive… |
It’s a pleasure to know you But I did not deserve
you |
Every night I try to fall asleep I think of promises
I couldn’t keep |
The questions arise, Would you have stayed if I lied. |
There’s no turning back, you have made it too
clear |
I crumbled and I cheated. |
Cheated on love, cheated on life, Cheated on reasons
I used to survive… |
(Chorus) |
I wish you’d forgive me and forget the pain I
brought you |
It’s not fair, I do care |
I would not have done this if things were not like
this |
I’m sorry, but please forgive me… Forgive
me….!!! |
(Chorus)
TOMORROW
CAN WAIT
If this was our last
night on earth Would you celebrate with me my girl |
We could say whatever’s on our minds Before
we say goodnight. |
I know things aren’t what they used to be |
Let’s just raise a glass to you and me |
The sky is crying out the end is near But let’s
hold back the tears. |
Tomorrow can wait, for us, to say goodbye |
It’s never too late to turn back time (turn back
time) |
Forget about the rain, It’ll wash away the flies |
Tomorrow’s the day we say goodbye. |
(CHORUS) |
Goodnight, my love, goodnight…
MEET ME IN THE LOBBY
Meet me in the lobby, we could have some coffee, and
talk about the end of the world | I’ve got many
questions, I heard you’ve got the answers |
Predictions that speak louder than words | Will you
look into your crystal ball | And tell me what you
see | I just want to know what my life looks like |
Is it beautiful, will it be beautiful | Will I move
to the country, have a lot of money, and live to
see all people get along | It’s not that I am
worried, scared or in a hurry | Honestly there’s
a chance you could be wrong | CHORUS | today I heard
pictures calling out my name with memories | They
don’t want me to change | Can you meet me in
the lobby | CHORUS
OUTTA
MY HEAD Big love and there’s not enough
room | I
feel like I’ve fallen for you | Train
wreck happens every time | I
can’t even enjoy the ride/ And I know I’ve
gotta get away | Even
though I want to stay | Please don’t make me
want you | Tell
myself that it’s ok | It’s
hard to keep a good thing going these days | Now
it’s your fault, you’ve
got me going insane? You run through my soul like pouring
rain | And I know I’ve gotta get away | Even
though I want to stay | Oh
you made me want you | Now
I can’t
get you outta my head | I
can’t get you outta
my head | You’re
in my car, you’re on the
stage, you’re lying in my bed | Now
I can’t
get you outta me head | No
I won’t let you in |
I’ll just forget you | CHORUS
IF
I LIED When you’re in love/ You think you’ve got
something good/ And you could never play the fool/
That was not the case/ I swear I tried to be strong/
But I broke all the rules/ Rules of love, rules of
life, rules we follow just to survive/ It’s a
pleasure to know you/ But I did not deserve you/ Ever
night I try to fall asleep/ I think of promises I couldn’t
keep/ The questions arise/ Would you have stayed if
I lied/ There’s no turning back/ You have made
it too clear/ I crumbled and I cheated/ Cheated on
love, cheated on life, cheated on reasons I used to
survive/ CHORUS/ I wish you’d forgive me and
forget the pain I brought you/ It’s not fair,
I do care/ I would not have done this if things were
not like this/ I’m sorry, but please forgive
me/ Forgive me/ CHORUS
CLOSE YOUR EYES
Have you ever wondered what It would be like if we
could see through each other’s dreams/ It’s
a fantasy that we all keep/ I think you know what
I mean/ And I try to get deep inside/ And I breathe
so hard I can’t sleep/ When you close your
eyes/ What do you see/ Do you dream of me/ Because
I dream of you. When you close your eyes/ What do
you feel/ Is everything real/ I just want to know
what’s behind your eyes/ As I lie awake my
eyes fixed on you/ The stars so bright they light
up the room/ I’ll paint your mind with pictures
of me/ As you fall asleep I am all that you’ll
see/ CHORUS/ Have you ever wondered what it would
be like if we could see through each other’s
dreams
SUGAR COATED LOVE SONG Last night I saw a vision of you walking away/ I swear
I heard the echoes of things I wish you wouldn’t
say/ Now you’re far out of reach and there’s
no way of bringing you back to me/ Here’s your
sugar coated love song/ Sponsored by the man you
threw away/ Here’s your sugar coated letter/
I thought that it would sound much sweeter this way/
Why can’t you read between the lines/ For a
minute I picture a girl/ The most beautiful thing
in the world/ But wait a minute, I’m looking
through/ I see what you are hiding beneath those
eyes of blue/ You’re far out of reach and there’s
no way of bringing you back to me/ CHORUS/ Sticks
and stones may break your bones, but words will never
hurt you/ But whatch’ya gonna say when I’m
too far away and there’s no one you can turn
too/ Last night I saw a vision of you walking away/
I’m sorry for the good times and how they all
just fade away/ CHORUS
OCTOBER SKY
She will go home with you but she’ll sleep on
the couch/ She’s a little bit of everything I
dream about/ Leaves a note by the phone as she sneaks
away/ Says call if you want/ If you don’t it’s
ok/ She’s perfect, she’s perfect/ She’s
my October sky/ She’s full of color and I don’t
know why/ She’s my purple rain/ She always wears
a smile and she never complains/ October sky/ She recites
all the lines to Caddyshack/ And goes to extremes just
to make you laugh/ Prefers VH1 over MTV/ And can talk
all night about photography/ CHORUS/ She’s my
Joshua Tree/ If she’s good enough for you/ Then
she’s better off with me/ October Sky/ Snapshot
of a beautiful day/ Halloween’s just two weeks
away/ I never thought someone could make me say these
words/ But I think I’d marry her/ CHORUS/ She’s
my Magic Mystery Tour/ She’ll take what you can
give/ Never wanting more
COME MY
WAY It’s on the way down/ It’s on the way down/
I know we aren’t the hurting kind/ Don’t
turn away look around/ Don’t turn away look around/
We’re running out of time/ We are free, don’t
keep your troubles inside/ Just come my way/ I’ll
make you feel alive/ I want to walk together/ In any
kind of weather/ Rain or shine/ Relax your mind/ CHORUS/
I may not be the best you’ve ever seen/ But I
assure you that love can cure you now/ CHORUS
NO NAME #7 There’s something wrong in the air today/ you
did not have to go/ But you made it that way/ Everybody
cares but no one understands/ You use the pain to wash
your hands of this life/ It’s a lie when the
phone rings/ But it becomes the truth/ When the radio
brings news of a tragic goodbye/ Oh how I wonder why/
Now everything is wrong is the air today/ I hope you’re
happy/ Because they’ll all know you in years
to come/ Was it what you wanted/ Was it what you needed/
Well I hope that you’re happy/ CHORUS/ There’s
something wrong in the air today/ You did not have
to go/ But you made it that way \
BEAUTY QUEEN
Sunday night among a crowd/ We drank until they kicked
us out/ I’m glad we made it home all right/
You’re looking pretty tired from the bags under
your eyes/ They say you didn’t get much sleep
last night/ You never called/ Do I dare to ask why/
Should I disappear/ Put it all aside/ You’re
letting me go/ And I already know/ Let’s skip
that part for now/ Tonight let’s just be together/
Tonight I wont think about tomorrow/ I know you’ll
be gone and your life will go on/ Tonight/ Add another
beauty queen to a list of one night shattered dreams/
I’ll pencil you in for now/ There’s a
chance you’re not the same/ Then I’d
erase your name/ In the meantime that won’t
get me down/ I try to forget that you’re just
like me/ You could slip away so easily/ CHORUS/ No
need for solution/ Lets save the confusion/ it’s
all in the game we play/ I look in the mirror/ Your
face getting clearer/ Well this could never be/ We’re
the same in so many ways/ CHORUS
GOODBYE
It’s not that you’re good/ it’s not
that you’re bad/ It’ not that you’re
wrong with the timing you had/ It’s not that
we’re forced to follow one path/ Today might
be great/ It might hold us back/ Now my mind’s
made up/ And the clocks won’t stop/ Ticking inside
of my head/ I’ve made up my mind/ I’ve
decided to say/ Goodbye/ We can do anything/ And forget
what they say/ There’s still time to change/
And there’s still time to runaway/ CHORUS
WHAT’S
IT MATTER
I don’t understand this/ you’re making
this hopeless/ But what’s it matter/ All you
want is a photo to spark young girls’ mojo/ But
what’s it matter/ Are you popular fashion/ We
don’t care about passion/ But what’s it
matter/ This is for you/ This is for you/ I know that
silver’s not as good as gold/ I give you my heart
and soul/ My hair’s not indie rock star/ My looks
aren’t Tean Beat pop star/ But what’s it
matter/ My word’s aren’t controversial/
My sound’s not car commercial/ But what’s
it matter/ CHORUS/ It’s all can give/ It’s
all that I know/ The lights go down let’s start
the show/ It’s just you and me and this melody/
Let’s just sing/ CHORUS
SOMETHING
SO STRANGE There’s got to be a better
way to make it through the day/ without my head spinning
round and round/ I don’t like to pick and choose/
but I also hate to lose/ and now I’m backed in
a corner/ I was searching for a different you and I
found a different me/ I’ve blown off some glances
and skipped out on dances/ cause I was too naïve
to see/ until Something so strange walked into my life/
I can’t escape it or it cuts like a knife/ Something
so cruel (strange) jumped in my car/ Took over the wheel
and it drove me too far/ There’s got to be a better
time to sit back and rewind/ my mind’s made a
list of pros and cons/ With standards set so high/ Higher
than the sky/ It’s no wonder that I’m still
alone/ You’re an average girl in a perfect world/
Now I realize that’s all right with me/ Because
we’re all silent heroes looking for someone to
save/ But there’s no one left so we help ourselves
get through another day.
IT’S
ABOUT TIME Can’t walk alone so follow/ Rest
until tomorrow/ Light is dim gonna let it shine shine/
Put two minds togethe/r Hand in hand is better/ This addiction’s
got me higher than high/ Everything changes you got to
keep up the pace/ Turn the pages and soon you’ll
find yourself in a better place/ It’s about time
that you fall in love again/ Don’t waste your time
this loneliness must end/ It’s about time that you
fall in love again/ Make up your mind throw away the might
have been/ To fade away is anger/ To bring it back is
stronger/ Realize it won’t get in the way/ But out
there someone’s waiting/ Just look around look around
look around.
WHEN
IT’S OVER A photograph on the wall/ better
take it down it’s gonna fall/ There’s a
storm on the way/ the blue sky it turns to gray/ And
I call out your name/ Don’t have to run/ the windows
are closed/ The evening sun/ disappears/ When it’s
over/ I’ll be waiting right here for you/ When
it’s over/ the fear will runaway/ I dream about
this moment with you/ I’ve had my eye on the world/
God knows what I’d use it for/ Save a week and
give you a year/ It’s the kind of thing that keeps
us here/ And you call out my name/ The time has come/
the doors are closed/ The evening sun/ disappears/ If
I had just one wish/ I’d trade the world for just
one kiss/ The storm has passed but here comes another/
I hope it all just fades away.
FIRST
MISTAKE Stop what you’re doing/ you know
that it’s not right/ You come here to argue/ I
don’t want to fight/ Two nights of laughter two
nights of fun/ Now you take it too far you tell me I’m
the one/ I said you couldn’t have my number/ but
you found it any way/ Saying hi was my first mistake/
and now I took all that I can take/ Look at what you
made me do/ Don’t you know when you cross the
line/ it’s not the place and it’s not the
time/ Saying hi was my first mistake/ I don’t
want an answe/r leave it as it is/ Can’t you accept
that/ you will not be missed/ If you were put on trial/
you could plea insane/ I should have saw it coming/
before I got your name/ I said you said you couldn’t
have my number/ but you found it anyway/ You call and
hang up when I’m not home/ Now I wish you’d
go away.
KILLING
ME It took a while to see you smile/ I knew that
I could make you laugh/ Another day just fades away/
I think I’m walking in your trap/ I know that
this is gonna seem unfair to you/ But take a minute
just to think this through/ Before you walk out that
door/ Before you cry and scream and yell some more/
I knew I should have shut my mouth/ The only thing I’ve
figured out is this is killing me/ When I met you I
had no clue/ that I could never play your game/ Now
here we are I’ll park the car/ The rain beats
hard on the window pane/ I’ve been holding this
inside of me because I was too afraid to make you see/
What I’m about to say may blow your mind/ and
you’re probably going to hate me ‘till the
end of time.
MYSTERIOUS
Stepping over every single crack on the ground/ It’s
like you’re walking on glass/ You surprise her
excited to see her face/ Cold shoulder greets you as
you pass/ It happens way to fast/ just when you thought
you could smile/ You ask yourself over and over and
over/ She’s mysterious/ She can make you believe
that you’re the only one in her eyes/ She’s
mysterious/ Turn your back and she’ll let down
her disguise/ You’re afraid she might not want
you anymore/ and you may be right/ You’ve been
known to over react with times like this once or twice/
Relax/ take a deep breath/ it’s not the end of
the world/ She’ll find you/ if she wants you/
You’re not the one with control/ She thanks you
for everything/ maybe it’s her way of saying goodbye/
You tell her she’s beautiful/ meaning you could
stay for a while.
BEGINNING
OF THE END I believe that the sun will shine
on us one day/ and I believe that the fork in the road
will point one way/ Take my advice but don’t take
it too hard/ Take my life but return it when you’re
finished/ This is the beginning of the end/ You better
pack your bags my friend/ This is the beginning of the
end/ You better pack your bags my friend/ He’s
over there and he look as though he’s gonna break/
He can’t control it/ He’s had all that he
can take/ He can run/ but he can’t run too far/
They’re close behind and they won’t let
him leave the city/ The light goes down on everybody/
It’s time to runaway/ Tell everybody/ Tell everyone/
You cause your own confusion/ Now the end has just begun/.
He can run Runaway.
YOU
HAD TO CRY I am the sun/ I rise every morning
shine my light on everyone/ I am the moon/ I awake every
night and protect you in your room/ But you’re
too dark to see/ You close your eyes and you think of
me/ I’m always there/ even if you can’t
see me anywhere/ You had to cry/ and make me wish that
I was by your side/ You had to speak/ and whisper all
of the things that you couldn’t say to me/ You
don’t hear a sound/ Your knees begin to buckle
as you fall onto the ground/ Too afraid to move/ Thinking
maybe that the silence will free the voice you had to
lose/ You’re back up on your feet/ You close your
eyes and reach for me/ I’m always there/ even
if you can’t feel me anywhere/ Your love was a
drug/ and I became so damn addicted/ Now I’ve
left you behind/ and I’m sorry./ You cry out to
me/ It’s just a dream/ Hoping I’ll be there
to say I’m sorry.
BECAUSE
OF YOU Telling stories to an old friend of mine/
Sittin’ back just killing time/ He keeps on saying
that his girl loves him True/ But I know she’s
not as cool as you/ You make me want to go and do those
sweet things/ I feel so good when I see you smile/ I’d
go out of my way to please you/ Give me just a little
while/ I know everything you want/ I love everything
you say/ I’ve got everything you need/ You wonder
why I feel this way/ It’s because of you/ Stuck
in traffic here on 285/ I think much clearer when I’m
out for a drive/ Looking back to all the things you
said/ before I left you lying in your bed.
SEEMS
LIKE NOTHING Blue is the sky/ and green is the
color of her eyes/ Red is the blood that runs through
me/ Like a heart that’s been broken for the first
time/ Like a night staying home drinking cheap wine/
Those times that we would rather forget/ It’s
the warmth on my face from the sunshine/ It’s
waiting my turn in a long line/ I guess I’ve learned
to take what I get/ But those times with you make me
realize/ there’s something so good in my life/
You make all of those things that ruin my day/ Seem
like nothing/ Black is your stare/ and brown is the
color of your hair/ White is a star that shines for
m/e Like a morning waking up with a headache/ because
the night before was a mistake/ Those times that we
would rather forget/ It’s the cold on my face
from a snowflake/ It’s spending lots of money
that I don’t make/ I guess I’ve learned
to take what I get.
TIRED
Nothing left to say/ No more games to play/ Falling
fast/ wasting away/ Falling fast/ into another day/
Too much on the mind/ Not enough time/ To fit it in/
spend another dime/ I’ve given in/ there’s
not enough time/ We all have bills to pay/ but I’m
so tired/ We all have things to say/ but I’m too
tired/ I’m alive/ I’m so alive/ No more
tears to cry/ Whisper in my ear your biggest lie.
CLOSE
YOUR EYES (LIVE) Have you ever wondered what
it’d be like/ if we could see through each other’s
dreams/ It’s a fantasy that we all keep/ I think
you know what I mean/ I try/ to get deep inside/ and
I breath/ so hard I can’t sleep/ Have you lied
so much you felt really bad/ Do you wish that you could
have those lies back/ Sometimes I think you’re
laughing at me/ I think you know what I mean/ I try/
to get deep inside/ and I breath/ so hard I can’t
sleep/ When you close your eyes/ what do you see/ Do
you dream of me/ because I dream of you/ When you close
your eyes/ what do you feel/ Is everything real/ I just
want to know/ what’s behind your eyes/ As I lie
awake my eyes fixed on you/ The stars so bright they
light up the room/ I’ll paint your mind with pictures
of me/ When you fall asleep I’m all that you’ll
see/ Have you ever wondered what it’d be like/
if we could see through each other’s dreams.
