History/ Povestea trupei
Formation and The All-American Rejects (1999–2004)
Infiintarea si albumul The All-American Rejects (1999-2004)
The band formed in Stillwater, Oklahoma, in 1999 while members Tyson Ritter and Nick Wheeler were still in high school. The two originally met in 1997 at a club where an early band of Nick Wheeler was performing. It was here that Ritter offered himself for bass duties. Eventually Ritter and Wheeler decided to form The All-American Rejects. The name comes from a combination of two suggestions "the all americans" and "the rejects".
Trupa s-a infiintat in Stillwater, Oklahoma, in 1999 pe cand membrii Tyson Ritter si Nick Wheeler se aflau inca la liceu. Cei doi se cunosc in 1997 intr-un club unde canta trupa initiala a lui Nick Wheeler. In acel club Ritter se autopropune ca basist. In cele din urma, Ritter si Weeler se hotarasc sa infiinteze The All-American Rejects. Numele provine de la o combinatie de doua sugestii ,,the all americans” si „the rejects”.
In 2000, still in high school, the band made a demo simply labeled The All-American Rejects, with Jesse Tabish as vocalist/guitarist, Tyson Ritter as vocalist/bassist and Nick Wheeler on drums. The demo CD was engineered, mixed and mastered by Wheeler, and was recorded/mastered at Oops! I Crapped My Pants studio in Stillwater. It was also managed by Half-A-Cup Entertainment. The demo is now commonly referred to as The Blue Disc or The Blue Album. The CD consisted of twelve songs, a few of which would be included on the Same Girl, New Songs demo made in 2001.In 2000, inca in perioada liceului, formatia scoate un demo intitulat simplu The All-American Rejects, cu Jesse Tabish, vocalist/chitara, Tyson Ritter, vocalist/bas si Nick Wheeler la baterie. CD-ul demo este pregatit, mixat si masterizat de catre Wheeler si inregistrat/ masterizat la studioul Oops! I Crapped My Pants din Stillwater. De asemenea, o contributie are si Half-A-Cup Entertainment. Demo-ul este acum cunoscut ca The Blue Disc sau The Blue Album. CD-ul era alcatuit din 12 piese, din care cateva urmau a fi incluse pe demo-ul Same Girl, New Songs realizat in 2001.
Jesse Tabish later split from the group. Ritter and Wheeler put together the Same Girl, New Songs EP, which was soon was sent to independent Doghouse Records, where an intern saved the disc from the trash, and revealed it to the label owner. The All-American Rejects were soon signed to a recording contract.Mai tarziu, Jesse Tabish paraseste trupa. Ritter si Wheeler strang materialul pentru EP-ul Same Girl, New Songs, care este imediat trimis casa de discuri independenta Doghouse Records, unde un angajat salveaza discul din gunoi si il prezinta proprietarului casei de discuri. The All-American Rejects semneaza la scurt timp un contract de inregistrare.
In 2001, with producer Tim O'Hier, they recorded their self-titled debut album, The All-American Rejects. The album and its first single, "Swing, Swing", were released towards the end of 2002. The band began looking for additional members for a live act. Edmond, Oklahoma resident Mike Kennerty joined on as guitarist soon before the album was released.

In 2001, impreuna cu producatorul Tim O’Hier, inregistreaza albumul de debut autointitulat, The All-American Rejects. Albumul si primul single de pe el, "Swing, Swing", au fost lansate spre sfarsitul lui 2002. Trupa incepe cautarile pentru noi membri cu care sa cante intr-un concert. Chitaristul Mike Kenerty din Oklahoma li se alatura la scurt timp dupa lansarea albumului. Imediat dupa aceea, formatia are probleme din cauza bateristului Tim Campbell. Campbell este inlocuit de bateristul Chris Gaylor, care il cunostea pe Kennerty cu care chiar cantase intr-o formatie.

Lyrics
"SAME GIRL, NEW SONGS" - EP
One More Sad Song
One boy, one girl, two hearts, their world
Time goes by, secrets rise
One more, sad song, tears shed, she's gone
She'd take it back, if she only could
And all the perfect words they seem so wrong,
She's gone
You wish that you could learn to see,
The door is closed and you wish you could be
Alone with you, alone with me
What can I do, I cannot breathe
My heart is torn, for all to see
Alone with you, alone with me.
Best friend, worst thing, she's been, cheating
Friend deceives, she leaves
Last date. She cries, whispers, goodbye
She walks once more, out that door
And all the perfect words they seem so wrong,
She's gone
You wish that you could learn to see,
The door is closed and you wish you could be
Alone with you, alone with me
What can I do, I cannot breathe
My heart is torn, for all to see
Alone with you, alone with me.
Please stay, don't go away
The hardest thing is letting go of you
Please stay, don't go away
The hardest thing is letting go of you
what can I do?
Alone with you, alone with me, what can I do?
I cannot see, alone with, alone with,
alone with you, alone with me, what can I do?
I cannot breathe, my heart is torn for all to see,
alone with you, alone with me
Drive Away
She's gone away but still they stay together
People call him crazy, crazy
His thoughts progress, he thinks about forever
His mind tells him maybe, maybe
I wish I could drive away to the sunset
Back to the day that we first met
Only believe the things I wrote
I'll put it in a note, yeah
I'll cross my t's and dot my i's
Better say hello, don't you dare say goodbye
I'll write sincerely yours and sign my name
P.S. I love you forever and today
And now she's gone, they couldn't stay together
The rain falls down, and now he's crying, crying
Two weeks go by, seems like its been forever
Their hearts are bound, and now she's lying, lying
I wish I could drive away to the sunset
Back to the day that we first met
Only believe the things I wrote
I'll put it in a note, yeah
I'll cross my t's and dot my i's
Better say hello, don't you dare say goodbye
I'll write sincerely yours and sign my name
P.S. I love you forever and today
All the heartbreak all the pain
(Who could be me)
All your words you said in vain
(Who could see me)
And I'll never be the same
I wish I could drive away to the sunset
Back to the day that we first met
Only believe the things I wrote
I'll put it in a note, yeah
I'll cross my t's and dot my i's
Better say hello, don't you dare say goodbye
I'll write sincerely yours and sign my name
P.S. I love you forever and today
(All the heartbreak, all the pain)
Forever and today
(All your words are said in vain)
Forever and today
(And I'll never be the same)
P.S. I love you
Forever and today
Too Far Gone
I should warn you
Things you're feeling, aren't normal now.
Think you need me
It's not easy, let you go some how.
Now we're too far gone,
Hope is such a waste
Every breath you take you give
me the burdens bitter taste
You promise that you'd stay
You say you want to go
Your lips provide a shelter for the
things that i don't know
Please speak slowly
My heart is learning
Teach me heart-ache,
Stop this burning now.
Wishful thinking
Patience shrinking, bliss is far away
North is calling
Now I'm falling, at your feet please stay
Now we're too far gone,
Hope is such a waste
Every breath you take you give
me the burdens bitter taste
You promise that you'd stay
You say you want to go
Your lips provide a shelter for the
things that i don't know
Please speak slowly
My heart is learning
Teach me heart-ache,
Stop this burning now.
[x4]
Don't Leave Me
You're sweet just like the sun
But what happens when the sun doesn't stay?
The night reminds me when you went away (I don't care, I don't care)
Now my mind was pacing, heart is racing contemplating things that I lack
Even though you left me by myself, do I want you back?
Will you stay or will you walk?
will you let go?
Leave me all alone
I'm giving you one more chance
To make things last
Ring around the roses then she'll stay
Leave me once
Leave me twice
Kiss good-bye that will suffice
When you go away
Don't look back
Leave me once and i'll be fine
Leave me twice i'll make you mine
Just one more chance to make it once again
As the days go by, I am asking why did you leave
You left me alone and then you walked out on me (I don't care, I don't care)
Thinking of days, thinking of ways, thinking of things to you that I should say
I wanna be with you and that's the only way
Will you stay or will you walk?
will you let go?
Leave me all alone
I'm giving you one more chance
To make things last
Ring around the roses then she'll stay
Leave me once
Leave me twice
Kiss good-bye that will suffice
When you go away
Don't look back
Leave me once and i'll be fine
Leave me twice i'll make you mine
Just one more chance to make it once again
Don't say good-bye, just dry your eyes
A tear for everything that I did wrong
Don't say goodbye, just dry your eyes
Listen now just try and see me please don't leave me now.
Leave me once
Leave me twice
Kiss good-bye that will suffice
When you go away
Don't look back
Leave me once and i'll be fine
Leave me twice i'll make you mine
Just one more chance to make it once again
Her Name Rhymes With Mindy
Shes the one you see.
What more can I say?
Got the voice of an angel.
Perfect in every way.
From two till six,
we talked, we kissed.
The night was perfect bliss.
And I never felt like this.
Holding hands with her through the night.
I was scared, everythings all right.
I know I'm young.
She's smart. I'm dumb.
We leaned in for a kiss.
And I never felt like this.
This is for the girl who defines beauty.
With her long blonde hair,
I can't see why everytime I see her,
I go weak in the knees.
Her name is Lindy and she want me.
As I think in my room of the feelings I have spawned,
I remind myself in two months you were gone.
My time with you my dreams came true,
and with you I can't miss.
And I never felt like this.
This is for the girl who defines beauty.
With her long blonde hair,
I can't see why everytime that I see her,
I go weak in the knees.
Her name is Lindy and she wants me.
I wrote this song to get you out of my mind.
But since I did, I think about you all the time.
This is for the girl who defines beauty.
With her long blonde hair,
I cant see why everytime I see her,
I go weak in the knees.
Her name is Lindy and she wants me.
She wants me. And I want her.
Fembot
Went to bed with a smile.
Bragged to my friends
for a little while.
And I wished for another date,
to sit with you dazin'.
I was in this state
of tossing and turning
not knowing what to do.
Just sitting and waiting for
a call from you.
I know that it's real and it's no surprise.
To see that its true I look into your eyes.
Yes, she changed me.
And now I'm not the same.
And I know just how I have a world when she says my name.
Now I see you every day.
I go out of my way just to see your face
and school with you isn't the same.
Sleepless nights and our jokes are lame.
I am hoping and dreaming of another night like this.
Restless, and yearning for your sweet kiss.
I know that it's real. It's no surprise.
To see that it's true I look into your eyes.
Oh Yes, she change me,
Now I'm not the same.
I know now just how I have a world when she says my name.
She changed me and now im not the same.
And I know now just how I have a world
when she says my name.
Tossing and turning not knowing what to do.
Just sitting and waiting for a call from you.
I know that its real and its no surprise.
To see that its true I look into your eyes.
Yes, she changed me. A
And now I'm not the same.
And I know just how I have a world when she says my name.
Tossing and turning not knowing what to do.
Just sitting and waiting for a call from you.
I know that its real and its no surprise.
To see that its true I look into your eyes.
Oh Yes, she changed me.
And, now I'm not the same.
And I know just how I have a world when she says my name.
Pillsbury Doughgirl
People say everyday that she's taking you away,
And that we should leave her,
Everytime I see her,
I ask you why, and did she lie about those times with all those other guys?
I could see it a mile away, yeah, you're with her everyday,
The nights that you just missed,
The things that you promised,
They never stay (stay)
She's never seen the sun,
She wears shorts and I run away,
[Chorus]
He's dating Casper and he's afraid to ask her for his manhood back,
Please give me my friend back,
He's dating Casper, his heart races faster, just for her,
Why can't we be like we were?
First you skip but now you slip,
Sure is sad seeing a guy thats whipped,
Just a puppet to sink below, she's using you all for show.
Back in the day, we'd come and play,
But now you're asking if you may,
Can't you see that she's not the one?
She can't even see the sun,
The nights that you just missed,
The things that you promised,
They never stay (stay)
She's never seen the sun,
She wears shorts and I run away,
[Chorus]
I'll ask her, will she rip my heart right out,
If she hurt me once again? (Will you ask her?)
I'll tell her, that's not what I'm all about,
I'll stop hurting all my friends, we're okay,
[Chorus]
He's going away,
Away,
Why can't we be like we were?
She Mannequin
Perfect girl - visit me in my dreams
Run away with me tonight
This lasts forever although it seems
That you'rr not real to me
I don't care
Crystal clear - I see your face
And I know you see me too
You look at me
My heart is race
Not even real yet
I fall for you
Do you seem so real to me
Just my dream - my fantasy
Mean nothing it all
A vision in my mind
I don't care
I don't know
I don't care
The lights are off when we're alone
(Yes, we were talking on the phone)
I'm still asleep kickin' in my sheets, yeah.
The lights are off when we're alone
(Yes, we were talking on the phone)
I'm still asleep kickin' in my sheets
For you
Waited for you
You never came
Lying awake alone in bed
Yet you have changed
I'm still the same
Your promises were in my head
Do you seem so real to me
I couldn't see
Nothing it all
A vision in my mind
I don't care
I don't know
I don't care
The lights are off when we're alone
(Yes, we were talking on the phone)
I'm still asleep kickin' in my sheets, yeah
The lights are off when we're alone
(Yes, we were talking on the phone)
I'm still asleep kickin' in my sheets
For you
And only you
The lights are off when we're alone
(Wish we were talking on the phone)
The lights are off when we're alone
(Wish we were talking on the phone)
The lights are off
The lights are off
The lights are off when we're alone
(Wish we were talking on the phone)
Please turn the lights on
The lights are off when we're alone
(Wish were talking on the phone)
I'm still asleep kickin' in my sheets, yeah
The lights are off when we're alone
(Yes, we were talking on the phone)
The lights are off
The lights are off
The lights are off when we're alone
(Wish we were talking on the phone)
Please turn the lights on
Girl of My Dreams
Beautiful you are
Yeah, you I choose
I look to the stars
For a girl like you
And what I lost I have found
And, yeah, we'll wait around
For the girl that is you
Yeah
Maybe a chance
I could have with her
We shared a glance
At least I thought we were
And what I have lost I have found
And, yeah, we'll wait around
For the girl that is you
Yeah
You make my heart skip, but how?
I'm scared
What do I do now
I wanna go out
I'm stuck here all alone
I gotta get out
I'm here all alone
And I'm thinking of you
You're on my mind
I try to talk to you
But you never give me the time of day
I dream of us
And wake up alone
We'll take the bus
But I'm still at home
And what I've done I'll do
And then it's just me and you
And then you leave in May
You leave me hard and lonely
You are my one and only
I wanna go out
I'm stuck here all alone
I gotta get out
I'm here all alone
And I'm thinking of you
You're on my mind
I try to talk to you
But you never give me the time of day
Do - do do do - do do do - do do do do do [x2]
You are
Such and beautiful thing
And all goods things must come to an end
You are
Such and beautiful thing
And all goods things must come to an end
It's the end - It's the end - It's the end for you
It's the end - It's the end - It's the end for you
It's the end - It's the end - It's the end for you
It's the end - It's the end
I wanna go out
I'm stuck here all alone
I gotta get out
I'm here all alone
And I'm thinking of you
You're on my mind
I try to talk to you
But you never never never never
I wanna go out
I'm stuck here all alone
I gotta get out
I'm here all alone
And I'm thinking of you
You're on my mind
I try to talk to you
But you never give me the time of day
Do - do do do - do do do - do do do do do [x9]

THE ALL-AMERICAN REJECTS
My Paper Heart
Please just don't play with me
My paper heart will bleed
This wait for destiny won't do
Be with me please I beseech you
Simple things, that make you run away
Catch you if I can
Tears fall, down your face
The taste, is something new
Something that
I know moving on is,
Easiest when I am around you.
So bottle up old love,
And throw it out to sea,
Watch it away as you cry
A year has passed
The seasons go
Please just don't play with me
My paper heart will bleed
This wait for destiny won't do
Be with me please I beseech you
Simple things, that make you run away
Catch you if I can
Waiting, day to day it goes through
My lips, are sealed for her
My tongue is,
Tied to, a dream of being with you
To settle for less, is not what I prefer
So bottle up old love,
And throw it out to sea,
Watch it away as you cry
A year has passed
The seasons go
Please just don't play with me
My paper heart will bleed
This wait for destiny won't do
Be with me please I beseech you
Simple things, that make you run away
Catch you if I can
Summer time, the nights are so long
The leaves fall down,
and so do I into the arms of a friend
Winter nights
My bedside is cold, for I am gone
And spring blossoms you to me
Summer time, the nights they are so long
The leaves fall down,
and so do I into the arms of a friend
Winter nights
My bedside is cold, for I am gone
And spring blossoms you to me
Your Star
She screams when I'm away
She's been gone before.
I worried all the time, why worry anymore?
Now I go, away
Now I know, today
I picked out your star
Turned night to day
A simple whisper from your voice
And I fade away
You wish for love
You pushed me away
Your love for me was everything I need
The air I breathe
She, now she's all alone
Her eyes they drown in tears
Their love was meant to last
But she is blind with fear
Now I go, away
Now I know, today
I picked out your star
Turned night to day
A simple whisper from your voice
And I fade away
You wish for love
You pushed me away
Your love for me was everything I need
The air I breathe
Leave me be
Now I'm free
Love reflecting everything
You want space
I need you to help me see this through
There she goes, there she goes, there she goes
I picked out your star
Turned night to day
A simple whisper from your voice
And I fade away
You wish for love
You pushed me away
Your love for me was everything I need
The air I breathe
I picked out your star
Turned night to day
A simple whisper from your voice
And I fade away
You wish for love
You pushed me away
You're everything to me
Swing, Swing
Days swiftly come and go.
I'm dreaming of her
She's seeing other guys
Emotions they stir
The sun is gone.
The nights are long
And I am left while the tears fall.
Did you think that I would cry,
on the phone?
Do you know what it feels like,
being alone?
I'll find someone new
[Chorus]
(Swing) Swing, Swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again.
Wish cast into the sky
I'm moving on
Sweet beginnings do arise
She knows I was wrong
The notes are old,
They bend, they fold
and so do I to a new love.
Did you think that I would cry,
on the phone?
Do you know what it feels like,
being alone?
I'll find someone new
(Swing) Swing, Swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again
Bury me
(you thought your problems were gone)
Carry me
(away. away, away...)
[Chorus fades till end]
(Swing) Swing, Swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again
Time Stands Still
Him and her
Life is turned.
The day I knew you would leave
I can barely breathe
Can you hear me scream
[Chorus:]
You thrown in all directions
You epitome of perfection
She's lost her will (she's lost her will)
time is standing still
He walks, her, home
Now he walks alone
The days they turn into years
The eyes they drown in tears
Can you hear me scream
[Chorus]
The way we are the way we were
(It's just a shadow of what's wrong)
The time with you the time is stirred
(I love you for, so long)
The hearts they turn, they turn away
(she says to go please don't you cry)
Love lost was found, night turns to day
[Chorus x2]
Time is standing still
One More Sad Song
One boy, one girl, two hearts, their world
Time goes by, secrets rise
One more, sad song, tears shed, she's gone
She'd take it back, if she only could
And all the perfect words they seem so wrong,
She's gone
You wish that you could learn to see,
The door is closed and you wish you could be
Alone with you, alone with me
What can I do, I cannot breathe
My heart is torn, for all to see
Alone with you, alone with me.
Best friend, worst thing, she's been, cheating
Friend deceives, she leaves
Last date. She cries, whispers, goodbye
She walks once more, out that door
And all the perfect words they seem so wrong,
She's gone
You wish that you could learn to see,
The door is closed and you wish you could be
Alone with you, alone with me
What can I do, I cannot breathe
My heart is torn, for all to see
Alone with you, alone with me.
Please stay, don't go away
The hardest thing is letting go of you
Please stay, don't go away
The hardest thing is letting go of you
what can I do?
Alone with you, alone with me, what can I do?
I cannot breathe, alone with, alone with,
alone with you, alone with me, what can I do?
I cannot breathe, my heart is torn for all to see,
alone with you, alone with
Why Worry
I worry, I wonder all the time why worry
It's killing me, forget about it
I whisper, remember what she did
Don't miss her
Set me free, she won't allow it
Angry and gone, and the list goes on and on
If it's love, I will differ, I'm being lost being with her
I can't move on, I can't take it
She, she says we won't ma-a-ake it now
I can't move on, I can't take it
She, she says we won't ma-a-ake it now
Be-lieving, the things I did were wrong
I'm leaving
It fades a-way, forget about it
She's binding, can't do a thing alone
Rewinding
Times before, can't live without it
Angry and gone, and the list goes on and on
If it's love, I will differ, I'm being lost being with her
I can't move on, I can't take it
She, she says we won't ma-a-ake it now
I can't move on, I can't take it
She, she says we won't ma-a-ake it now
I don't know
But you did but you did but yo-ou did
Please don't go
Now my feelings for you they're now lost
'cause we're through anymore
I'll write you , I'll call you
Now
I'm being lost being with her [x2]
I'm being lost
Forget about it
I can't move on, I can't take it
She, she says we won't ma-a-ake it now
I can't move on, I can't take it
She, she says we won't ma-a-ake it now
[Repeat to fade]
Don't Leave Me
You're sweet just like the sun
But what happens when the sun doesn't stay?
The night reminds me when you went away (I don't care, I don't care)
Now my mind was pacing, heart is racing contemplating things that I lack
Even though you left me by myself, do I want you back?
Will you stay or will you walk?
will you let go?
Leave me all alone
I'm giving you one more chance
To make things last
Ring around the roses then she'll stay
Leave me once
Leave me twice
Kiss good-bye that will suffice
When you go away
Don't look back
Leave me once and i'll be fine
Leave me twice i'll make you mine
Just one more chance to make it once again
As the days go by, I am asking why did you leave
You left me alone and then you walked out on me (I don't care, I don't care)
Thinking of days, thinking of ways, thinking of things to you that I should say
I wanna be with you and that's the only way
Will you stay or will you walk?
will you let go?
Leave me all alone
I'm giving you one more chance
To make things last
Ring around the roses then she'll stay
Leave me once
Leave me twice
Kiss good-bye that will suffice
When you go away
Don't look back
Leave me once and i'll be fine
Leave me twice i'll make you mine
Just one more chance to make it once again
Don't say good-bye, just dry your eyes
A tear for everything that I did wrong
Don't say goodbye, just dry your eyes
Listen now just try and see me please don't leave me now.
Leave me once
Leave me twice
Kiss good-bye that will suffice
When you go away
Don't look back
Leave me once and i'll be fine
Leave me twice i'll make you mine
Just one more chance to make it once again
Too Far Gone
I should warn you
Things you're feeling, aren't normal now.
Think you need me
It's not easy, let you go some how.
Now we're too far gone,
Hope is such a waste
Every breath you take you give
me the burdens bitter taste
You promise that you'd stay
You say you want to go
Your lips provide a shelter for the
things that i don't know
Please speak slowly
My heart is learning
Teach me heart-ache,
Stop this burning now.
Wishful thinking
Patience shrinking, bliss is far away
North is calling
Now I'm falling, at your feet please stay
Now we're too far gone,
Hope is such a waste
Every breath you take you give
me the burdens bitter taste
You promise that you'd stay
You say you want to go
Your lips provide a shelter for the
things that i don't know
Please speak slowly
My heart is learning
Teach me heart-ache,
Stop this burning now.
[x4]
Drive Away
She's gone away but still they stay together
People call me crazy, crazy
My thoughts progress, I think about forever
My mind tells me maybe, maybe
I wish I could drive away to the sunset
Back to the day that we first met
Only believe the things I wrote
I'll put it in a note, yeah
Cross my t's and dot my i's
Better say hello, don't you dare say goodbye
I'll write "sincerely yours" and sign my name
P.S. I love you, forever and today
Two weeks go by, seems like it's been the weather
The rain falls down - she's crying, crying
My thoughts progress, she thinks about forever
Their hearts are bound - lying, lying
I wish I could drive away to the sunset
Back to the day that we first met
Only believe the things I wrote
I'll put it in a note, yeah
Cross my t's and dot my i's
Better say hello, I'm gonna wave goodbye
I'll write "sincerely yours" and sign my name
P.S. I love you, forever and today
All the heartbreak all the pain
All the words you said in vain
And I'll never be the same
I wish I could drive away to the sunset
Back to the day that we first met
Only believe the things I wrote
I'll put it in a note, yeah
Cross my t's and dot my i's
Better say hello, I'm gonna wave goodbye
I'll write "sincerely yours" and sign my name
P.S. I love you, forever and today
Forever and today
Forever and today
P.S. I love you
Forever and today
Happy Endings
Time does tell
That even if they say so
She'd be the one that would know
That I did do what I've done
And I wouldn't call it cheating
I'd just say I was leading her on
Why walk while I run a-way
You- you ask me what went wrong
Me- I'll write you this last song
Please- just tell me one way we can win
One- more thing before I go
Two- the one who loves me so
Three- don't make me count to three again
Happy endings
Just what did you do, If you're a dream then come true
Stop pretending
That what you mean isn't what you say
Hopeful dreaming,
Of times before the pain, wishing it was still the same
Loving, leaving
Round and round and round we go again
Walks a-lone, have often lead to thinking
My love for you is sinking to what seems an all time low
or high, the limits' never ending,
And don't you know I'm sending
There's no venture I won't go
For you
You- you ask me what went wrong
Me- I'll write you this last song
Please- just tell me one way we can win
One- more thing before I go
Two- the one who loves me so
Three- don't make me count to three again
Happy endings
Just what did you do, If you're a dream then come true
Stop pretending
That what you mean isn't what you say
Hopeful dreaming,
Of times before the pain, wishing it was still the same
Loving, leaving
Round and round and round we go again
She walks away, she talks away
She walks away
She walks away, she talks away
Away, away...
Happy endings
Just what did you do, If you're a dream then come true
Stop pretending
That what you mean isn't what you say
Hopeful dreaming,
Of times before the pain, wishing it was still the same
Loving, leaving
Round and round and round we go again
Happy endings
Just what did you do, If you're a dream then come true
Stop pretending
That what you mean isn't what you say
Hopeful dreaming,
Of times before the pain, wishing it was still the same
Loving, leaving
The Last Song
This may be the last thing that I write for long
Can you hear me smiling when I sing this song, for you and only you
As I leave will you be someone to say good-bye
As I leave will you be someone to wipe your eye
My foot is out the door, and you can't stop me now
You wanted the best, it wasn't me, will you give it back
Now I'll take the lead, when there's no more room to make it grow
I'll see you again, you'll pretend you're naive, is this what you want
Is this what you need, how you end up let me know.
As I go, remember all the simple things you know,
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope, that you will miss me when
I'm gone
This is the last song
The hearts start breaking as the year is gone
The dream's beginning and the time rolls on
It seems so surreal, now I sing it.
Somehow I knew that it would be this way,
Somehow I knew that it would slowly fade.
Now I am gone, just try and stop me now.
You wanted the best, it wasn't me, will you give it back
Now I'll take the lead, when there's no more room to make it grow
I'll see you again, you'll pretend you're naive, is this what you want
Is this what you need, how you end up let me know.
As I go, remember all the simple things you know,
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope, that you will miss me when
I'm gone
This is the last song
And will you need me now, you'll find a way somehow
You want it too, I want it too.
As I go, remember all the simple things you know,
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope, that you will miss me when
I'm gone
This is the last song
[repeat 2x]
"MOVE ALONG"
Dirty Little Secret
Let me know that I've done wrong
When I've known this all along
I go around a time or two
Just to waste my time with you
Tell me all that you've thrown away
Find out games you don't wanna play
You are the only one that needs to know
I'll keep you my dirty little secret
(Dirty little secret)
Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret
(Just another regret, hope that you can keep it)
My dirty little secret
Who has to know
When we live such fragile lives
It's the best way we survive
I go around a time or two
Just to waste my time with you
Tell me all that you've thrown away
Find out games you don't wanna play
You are the only one that needs to know
I'll keep you my dirty little secret
(Dirty little secret)
Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret
(Just another regret, hope that you can keep it)
My dirty little secret
Who has to know
The way she feels inside (inside)
Those thoughts I can't deny (deny)
These sleeping thoughts won't lie (won't lie)
And all I've tried to hide
It's eating me apart
Trace this life out
I'll keep you my dirty little secret
(Dirty little secret)
Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret
(Just another regret)
I'll keep you my dirty little secret
(Dirty little secret)
Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret
(Just another regret, hope that you can keep it)
My dirty little secret
Dirty little secret
Dirty little secret
Who has to know
Who has to know
Stab My Back
Now we're broken on the floor
She just wants me to share her
It hasn't been this way before
She just wants me to dare her
The phone rings
And she screams
Stab my back
It's better when I bleed for you
You walk on me
It never was enough to do
I can't get past her
Falling fast
It's true
It hasn't done a lot for you
And every time he held you close
Yeah, were you thinking of me
When I needed you the most
Well I hope that you're happy
The phone rings
And she screams
Stab my back
It's better when I bleed for you
You walk on me
It never was enough to do
I can't get past her
Falling fast
It's true
It's better when I bleed for you
I hope that love he gave you
Was just enough to save you
You nearly broke my heart
Just look at what you're tearing apart
Stab my back
It's better when I bleed for you
You walk on me
It never was enough to do
I can't get past her
Falling fast
It's true
It hasn't done a lot for you
It's better when I bleed for you
It never was enough to do
It hasn't done a lot for you
Move Along
Go ahead as you waste your days with thinking
When you fall everyone stands
Another day and you've had your fill of sinking
With the life held in your
Hands are shaking cold
These hands are meant to hold
Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along
Move along
So a day when you've lost yourself completely
Could be a night when your life ends
Such a heart that will lead you to deceiving
All the pain held in your
Hands are shaking cold
Your hands are mine to hold
Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along
(Go on, go on, go on, go on)
When everything is wrong, we move along
(Go on, go on, go on, go on)
When everything is wrong, we move along
Along, along, along
When all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
[x3]
(Go on, go on, go on, go on)
Right back what is wrong
We move along
[fade out]
It Ends Tonight
Your subtleties
They strangle me
I can't explain myself at all.
And all the wants
And all the needs
All I don't want to need at all.
The walls start breathing
My mind's unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow.
When darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight
It ends tonight.
A falling star
Least I fall alone.
I can't explain what you can't explain.
You're finding things that you didn't know
I look at you with such disdain
The walls start breathing
My mind's unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow.
When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Now I'm on my own side
It's better than being on your side
It's my fault when you're blind
It's better that I see it through your eyes
All these thoughts locked inside
Now you're the first to know
When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends
When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Tonight
Insight
When darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight.
Change Your Mind
Don't solve the problem,
when danger is better.
Far away where you stock them
In cages that tether
And all the bridges you've burned,
leave you trapped off at all sides.
And now the tables do turn,
and it's all gone, what's left for you.
And when the sky is falling,
don't look outside the window.
Step back and hear I'm calling.
Give up, don't take the fast road.
It's just your doubt that binds you.
Just drop those thoughts behind you now.
Change your mind.
You let go too soon.
Sit down, you're sinking,
there's no one to watch you.
Skip town, you're thinking,
there's no one to stop you.
And all the bridges you've burned,
leave you trapped off at all sides.
And now the tables do turn,
and it's all gone, what's left for you.
And when the sky is falling,
don't look outside the window.
Step back and hear I'm calling.
Give up, don't take the fast road.
It's just your doubt that binds you.
Just drop those thoughts behind you now.
Change your mind.
Let go too soon.
Don't run away,
Stop feeling fine.
It's better than your worst, your worst day.
No words to say, I'll give you mine,
and pocket all the hurt, and just stay.
Don't run away.
It's better than your worst, your worst day.
And when the sky is falling,
don't look outside the window.
Step back and hear I'm calling.
Give up, don't take the fast road.
And when the sky is falling,
don't look outside the window.
Step back and hear I'm calling.
Give up, don't take the fast road.
It's just your doubt that binds you.
Just drop those thoughts behind you now.
Change your mind.
Let go too soon.
Don't run away.
I'll change your mind.
Let go too soon.
[x3]
Don't run away.
I'll change your mind.
Night Drive
I know you
so better than the city in the rear view
I drive to
eliminate the ball that I'm chained to
Take me break me
every mile further there's a part of me that slips away
One day you'll see
Even if you got down on your knees you couldn't make me stay
Drive all night
Never gonna get me
Night by night
To get away from it all
Fight fight fight
All you wanna do is hurt me
You wrecked my life
So I'm gonna have to drive all night
I'll stay strong
I'm pushing on the pedal till I break dawn
So I'm gone, go find another shoulder you can cry on
Take me break me
every mile further there's a part of me that slips away
One day you'll see
Even if you got down on your knees you couldn't make me stay
Drive all night
Never gonna get me
Night by night
To get away from it all
Fight fight fight
All you wanna do is hurt me
You wrecked my life
So I'm gonna have to drive all night
You wrecked my life
So I'm gonna have to drive all night
You wrecked my life
So I'm gonna have to drive all night
All of the things that you knew that I'd try
All of the things that I held inside
All I gotta do is drive
Drive all night
Never gonna get me
Night by night
To get away from it all
Fight fight fight
All you wanna do is hurt me
You wrecked my life
So I'm gonna have to drive all night
You wrecked my life
So I'm gonna have to drive all night
You wrecked my life
So I'm gonna have to drive all night
You wrecked my life
So I'm gonna have to drive all night
you wrecked my life
so I'm gonna have to drive all night
11:11
All the windows,
Swear to miss you,
And the doors are cell block tight,
Sweet sedation,
Sweep the issues,
And the clocks about to strike
Did it call you down,
Are you back just yet,
Waiting now please come set me free,
And the only sound is a minute left.
This could be, this could be the last time
It's a chance to fix mistakes,
One more for the last time,
Don't you throw our dreams away,
Don't waste this chance with your smile
10 seconds left on this dial,
This could be the last time.
Along the staircase,
I dream to hear you,
In a whisper quiet room,
Space for thinking,
Space to scream to,
But the echoes sound like you,
Not the stars at night,
In a pitch black sky,
I don't know just wants to see you
But the time is right and it only flies
This could be, this could be the last time
It's a chance to fix mistakes,
One more for the last time,
Don't you throw our dreams away,
Don't waste this chance with your smile
10 seconds left on this dial,
This could be the last time.
It's only us,
It's only now,
A simple wish,
It's only tonight.
This could be the last time,
Now I've made our last mistake
One more for the last time,
And you throw our dreams away, (This could be, this could be)
Don't waste this chance with your smile (This could be, this could be)
10 seconds left on this dial, (This could be, this could be)
This could be the last time. (This could be, this could be)
It's only us,
It's only now,
It's only tonight.
Dance Inside
You don't have to move, you don't have to speak
lips for biting.
You're staring me down, a glance makes me weak
eyes for striking
Now I'm twisting up when I'm twisted with you
brush so lightly
and time trickles down, and I'm breathing for two
squeeze so tightly.
I'll be fine, you'll be fine.
this moment seems so long
Don't waste now, precious time
we'll dance inside the song
[Chorus]
What makes the one to shake you down?
Each touch belongs to each new sound
Say now you want to shake me too
Move down to me, slip into you
She sinks in my mind as she sheds through her skin
touch sight tastes like fire
hands do now what eyes no longer defend
hands to fuel desire
I'll be fine, you'll be fine
this moment seems so long
Don't waste now, precious time
we'll dance inside the song
[Chorus]
Ooo, ah [x8]
And I'll be fine, you'll be fine
Is this fine? I'm not fine
Give me pieces, give me things to stay awake (stay awake)
[Chorus x2]
Move down to me, slip into you
Top of the World
[Verse 1]
Is there anybody out there?
That wakes up with a bitter taste?
It's a king that we put up there
And he's a short way to fall from grace
It's slowly filling upward.
You can stand but you have no ground.
I hear it from the lost words.
They say it's time that you lost your crown.
[Chorus]
Don't be so greedy.
A dollar's a penny to you
When hearts are beating
Say what you want 'em to do.
Wasting away... I see you.
When the top of the world falls on you
Finding a day, don't wanna be you
When the top of the world falls on you
[Verse 2]
Is there anybody out there?
That can see what a man can change?
It's better that you don't care
Because he knows that he's in his stage
I feel the paranoia.
When there's a time, put you in your place
In the eyes of those who watch ya
Well they can wait 'til you hit your face
[Chorus]
Don't be so greedy.
A dollar's a penny to you
When hearts are beating
Say what you want 'em to do.
Wasting away... I see you.
When the top of the world falls on you
Finally a day, don't wanna be you.
When the top of the world falls on you
Paint yourself a picture
When you waste another picture
And you win, and you win, and you win
Paint yourself a picture
And then you break another picture
And you win, and you win, and you win
And you win, yeah you win, and you win
[Chorus]
Don't be so greedy
A dollar's a penny to you
When hearts stop beating
Say what you want 'em to do
Wasting away... I see you
When the top of the world falls on you
Finding a day, don't wanna be you
When the top of the world falls on you
Wasting away... I see you
When the top of the world falls on you
Finding a day, don't wanna be you
When the top of the world falls on you
Straitjacket Feeling
Back me down from backing up
Hold your breath now it's stacking up
Etched with marks, but I can deal
And you're the problem and you can't feel
Try this on, straitjacket feeling
so maybe I won't be alone
Take back now, my life you're stealing
Yesterday was hell
But today I'm fine without you
Run away this time without you
And all I ever thought you'd be
That face is tearing holes in me again
Trust you is just one defense
off a list of others, you don't make sense
Beg me time and time again
to take you back now, but you can't win
Take back now, my life you're stealing
Yesterday was hell
But today I'm fine without you
Run away this time without you
And all I ever thought you'd be
That face is tearing holes in me
but today I'm fine without you
Run away this time without you
And all the things you put me through
I'm holding on by letting go of you
And when that memory slips away
There'll be a better view from here
And only lonesome you remains
and just the thought of you I fear
it falls away
Yesterday was hell
But today I'm fine without you
Run away this time without you
And all I ever thought you'd be
That face is tearing holes in me
but today I'm fine without you
Run away this time without you
And all the things you put me through
I'm holding on by letting go of you
I'm Waiting
One question what can't be done
You tear me down with the same thing
There's nothing the end, it's begun
What can you do when it all drains
Down there, you go always
See if I care faded
Down, don't you know where I'll be
'Cuz I'm here, on my own
Waiting, when I'm waiting
(don't you know)
I've been here before, and I don't care where I'm going
So I'll stay...
When you walk don't leave a note
Just put your hands on the back door
When you talk it's just a joke
Just know, I can't take it anymore
Down there, you go always
See if I care faded
Down, don't you know where I'll be
'Cuz I'm here, on my own
Waiting, when I'm waiting
(don't you know)
I've been here before, and I don't care where I'm going
So I'll be, waiting (waiting)
When I'm waiting (don't you know)
I'll tell you once more
That, as long as you're gone
Then I'll stay...
Outside there's no place I can hide
And your "down time"
Is anything but right
When the winds rise
This storm won't subside
You'll be outside
I'm in here and I'll guard
Waiting, when I'm waiting
(don't you know)
I've been here before, and I don't care where I'm going
So I'll be, waiting (waiting)
When I'm waiting (don't you know)
I'll tell you once more
That, as long as you're gone
Then I'll stay...
Then I'll stay
Then I'll stay
And you'll go then I'll stay
Stay...
Can't Take It
You speak to me
I know this will be temporary
You ask to leave,
but I can tell you that I've had enough
I can't take it
This welcome is gone and
I've waited long enough to make it
and if you're so strong
you might as well just do it alone
And I'll watch you go
Step up to me
I know that you've got something buried
I'll set you free
You set conditions, but I've had enough
I can't take it
This welcome is gone and
I've waited long enough to make it
and if you're so strong
you might as well just do it alone
And I'll watch you go
Come back home, won't you come back home?
You step in line, you got a lot to prove
It comes and goes
Yeah, it comes and goes
A step in time, yeah it's a lot to move
I know this will be temporary
I know this will be temporary
I know this will be, but I've had enough
I can't take it
This welcome is gone and
I've waited long enough to make it
and if you're so strong
you might as well just do it alone
And I'll watch you go
I can't take it
This welcome is gone and
I've waited long enough to make it
and if you're so strong
you might as well just do it alone
And I'll watch you go
Eyelash Wishes
Spin round
Tell me what to say
Break down
And no other way
What is it
Is this it
This is it
Back to

Stick through
Soon after the rain
She shines
How she shines
This is it
And shadows blend one last time (save those kisses)
Your picture speaks on this time (eyelash wishes)
Cause I been up 3 days
Awake awake
2 more weeks
And I’m turning to fade
The world still turns
What makes sense
Stretch this song to a fever cadence
Up 3 days
Awake awake
2 more weeks
And I’m turning to fade
And all things close
All I wish
Never change these distances
Green eyes
Everything I see
Green skies
If left up to me
And I know
And she knows
This is it
And shadows blend one last time (save those kisses)
Your picture speaks on this time (eyelash wishes)
Cause I've been up 3 days
Awake awake
2 more weeks
And I’m turning to fade
The world still turns
What makes sense
Stretch this song to a fever cadence
Up 3 days
Awake awake
2 more weeks
And I’m turning to fade
And all things close
All I wish
Never change these distances
Just be brave
Just listen to me
Your heart gives mine reason to beat
Now
Cause I've been up 3 days
Awake awake
2 more weeks
And I'm turning to fade
The world still turns
What makes sense
Stretch this song to a fever cadence
Up 3 days
Awake awake
2 more weeks
And I'm turning to fade
And all things close
All I wish
Never change these distances
And shadows blend one last time (save those kisses)
Your picture speaks on this time (eyelash wishes)

Damn Girl
If you feel like running today
You know I’d understand
You don’t but you long
It’s easier to get away
When on the other hand
You know I’m not much better without you
I’m like your victim and all that you need is an alibi
Its one thing about you
I don’t wanna make you cry
Damn girl
Dry your eyes
You stole my heart and then you kicked it aside
No girl you can’t see
When he’s inside you know there’s no room for me
If you can take a chance
Find you that better man
A life seize from your quick disease
You’re giving all my loving away
Tell me to understand
Cuz you know
I’m not much better without you
I'll press your lips and I taste everyone that you’ve had tonight
It's one thing about you
I don’t wanna taste tonight
Damn girl
Dry your eyes
You stole my heart and then you kicked it aside
No girl you can’t see
When he’s inside you know there’s no room for me
And I used to think that I was all you would need
Nah nah nah
There you go again
Nah nah nah
Oooh you think that you could just push me around
Nah nah nah
Yeah there you go again
You lift me up and then you throw me back down
Damn girl
Dry your eyes
You stole my heart and then you kicked it aside
No girl you can’t see
When he’s inside you know there’s no room for me
Damn girl
Dry your eyes
You stole my heart and then you kicked it aside
No girl you can’t see
When he’s inside you know there’s no room for me
And I used to think that I was all you would need
If you feel like running today you know I’d understand
Gives You Hell
I wake up every evening
With a big smile on my face
And it never feels out of place
And you're still probably working
At a nine to five pace
I wonder how bad that tastes
When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
Now where's your picket fence love
And where's that shiny car
And did it ever get you far
You never seemed so tense love
I've never seen you fall so hard
Do you know where you are
And truth be told I miss you
And truth be told I'm lying
When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool you're just as well
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
Tomorrow you'll be thinking to yourself
Where'd it all go wrong?
But the list goes on and on
And truth be told I miss you
And truth be told I'm lying
When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool, you're just as well
Hope it gives you hell
Now you'll never see
What you've done to me
You can take back your memories
They're no good to me
And here's all your lies
You can't look me in the eyes
With the sad, sad look
That you wear so well
When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool you're just as well
Hope it gives you hell
When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you hear this song and you sing along but you never tell
Then you're the fool, I'm just as well
Hope it gives you hell
When you hear this song
I hope that it will give you hell
You can sing along
I hope that it puts you through hell
Mona Lisa (When The World Comes Down)
Here's another pity
And there's another chance
Try to learn a lesson
But you can't.
If we can burn a city
In futures and in past,
Without a change our lives will never last.
Cause we're going fast.
You can sit beside me when the world comes down,
If it doesn't matter then just turn around.
We don't need our bags and we can just leave town.
You can sit beside me when the world comes down.
What can we do better,
When will we know how?
A man says from a sidewalk to a crowd.
If we can change the weather,
If you wanted to yourself.
And if you can't I guess we all need help, yeah,
I need help.
You can sit beside me when the world comes down,
If it doesn't matter then just turn around.
We don't need our bags and we can just leave town.
You can sit beside me when the world comes down.
We say
And we do
All the lies
The truth
And all I need is next to me.
Yeah, we're going fast.
You can sit beside me when the world comes down,
If it doesn't matter then just turn around.
Will you be the queen? And I'll be your clown
You can sit beside me when the world comes down.
You can sit beside me when the world comes
You can sit beside me when the world comes down.
Breakin'
Hold on tight
Wrap your arms around me til your knuckles are burning white
All your tears
Couldn’t match the bitter taste of all these wasted years
You take take
Everything that wasn’t even yours
Wait wait
You don’t got a hold of me anymore
In a clear view there’s a silhouette
And I watch you and I can’t forget
(Knew we were done when you locked that door)
Yeah I figured it out now
Breaking’s what the heart is for
When I see you in a silhouette
And you hold close, do you feel regret
(Keeping me down when I hit that floor)
And I figured it out girl
Breaking's what your heart is for
(For) so long
I’ve had to bite my tongue but what’s the point if the feelings gone
I turn my head (I turn my head)
A blind eye only sees a memory but all I see is red (all I see is red)
Now don’t don’t
Say it didn’t happen that way
I won’t won’t
Believe another word that you say
In a clear view there’s a silhouette
And I watch you and I can’t forget
(Knew we were done when you locked that door)
Yeah I figured it out now
Breaking’s what the heart is for
When I see you in a silhouette
And you hold close, do you feel regret
(Keeping me down when I hit that floor)
And I figured it out girl
Breaking's what your heart is for
Yeah breaking’s what your heart is for
Yeah breaking’s what your heart is for
And not a soul sleeps
Another heart skips a beat
It’s every note that you wrote
And I hope that you choke on the lines
You’re wasting my time, another heart beats tonight
In a clear view there’s a silhouette
And I watch you no I’ll never forget
(Knew we were done when you locked that door)
Yeah I figured it out now
Breaking’s what the heart is for
When I see you in a silhouette
And you hold close, do you feel regret
(Keeping me down when I hit that floor)
And I figured it out girl
Breaking's what your heart is for
Yeah breaking’s what your heart is for
Yeah breaking’s what your heart is for
Yeah breaking’s what your heart is for
Yeah breaking’s what your heart is for
Another Heart Calls
Do you remember when we didn't care
We were just two kids that took the moment when it was there
Do you remember you at all
Another heart calls
Yeah I remember when we stole the night
We'd lie awake but dreaming 'til the sun would wash the sky
Just as soon as I see you
But didn't I, but didn't I tell you
As deep as I need you,
You wanna leave it all
What can I do?
Say it's true
Or everything that matters breaks in two
Say it's true
I'll never ask for anyone but you
Talk to me
I'm throwing myself in front of you
This could be the last mistake
That I would ever wanna do
Yeah all I ever do is give it's time you see my point of view
Just as soon as I see you
But didn't I, but didn't I tell you
As deep as I need you,
You wanna leave it all
What can I do?
Say it's true
Or everything that matters breaks in two
Say it's true
I'll never ask for anyone but you
But I know what you want is to figure it out
And God knows I do too
What can I do?
Say it's true
I'll never ask for anyone but you
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Na, na, na, na, na, na
I'm sorry
So what?
But you don't think I've said enough
I'm sorry
I don't care
You were never there
As soon as I see you
But didn't I, but didn't I tell you
As deep as I need you
You wanna leave it all
What can I do?
Say it's true
Or everything that matters breaks in two
Say it's true
I'll never ask for anyone but you
But I know what you want is to figure it out
And God knows I do too
What can I do?
Say it's true
I'll never ask for anyone but you
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I'll never ask for anyone but you
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[to fade]
Real World
I woke up on this side, I thought it was a dream
At first we learned to walk then learned to scream
You can't understand, when you're fed from a TV screen
You can't see the things that I can see
But I forget, that you thank God and pray
Some things just never stay
And we all just slip away
This can't be the real world now
I don't believe it, when I can't see the truth
Welcome to the real world now
The old are carried in only to poison youth
Am I, the only one who thinks it's tragic
'Cause I know
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
I look for some hope in every face there's a vacant stare
The shadows come but no one seems to care
The darkness floods every light that could promise change
She passed sound asleep when the blood is stain
But blood is pain
Somewhere I know, that I'm not all alone
With this bated breath I hold
My lungs want to explode
This can't be the real world now
I don't believe it, when I can't see the truth
Welcome to the real world now
The old are carried in only to poison youth
Am I, the only one who thinks it's tragic
'Cause I know
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
Just as soon as we see
Every flaw and every need we'll understand
And for the first time
A child to a man says only pure words that he can
He's too late the man he knows it he said
With all emotions set aside in a whisper say goodbye
This can't be the real world now
I don't believe it, when I can't see the truth
Welcome to the real world now
The old are carried in now just to poison youth
Am I, the only one who thinks it's tragic
'Cause I know
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
This can't be the real world
This can't be the real world
This can't be the real world now
Oh no oh
Oh no oh
Back to Me
Hey you
So you never really found your way
Stay true
Did you ever make it through today
That when I think about a day without it
Everyday’s the same
You wish that you could find someone
But I’m the only one to blame
Can’t you see
I beg and plead
Cause when your eyes light up the skies at night
I know you’re gonna find your way back to me
No don’t
Don’t you ever let a piece of me down
Cause time won’t
Get back when I’m never around
When we live between so many walls
That I can barely breathe
You say that you just want someone
But I’m the only one you need
Can’t you see
I Beg and plead
Cause when your eyes light up the skies at night
I know you’re gonna find your way
If it’s me
That you don’t need
When the lights go out tonight I know
You’re never gonna find your way
Soon when I get you I won’t let you go
Oooh if I let you
You can take away all that I thought was wrong
And if you hear me there’s not much to say
There’s gotta be a better way
Can’t you see
I beg and plead
Cause when your eyes light up the sky tonight
I know you’re going to find your way back to me
Can’t you see
I beg and plead
Cause when the lights go out tonight
I know you’re never gonna find your way
If it’s me
That you don’t need
That when the lights go out tonight
I know you’re never gonna find you way
If you pace around the world 'til you're with me
And when your eyes light up the skies at night
I know you’re gonna find your way back to me
Believe
I don’t ever want to believe
I don’t ever want to believe yeah
That when we die
We all leave
Your innocence is not forgotten
I hope you know that where you are I wish you well
I hope you sleep in a perfect memory
You know it’s hard I tried
I could never say goodbye
I don’t ever wanna believe
I don’t ever wanna believe yeah
That when we die
We all leave
I don’t ever wanna let go
I hope that you see yeah
That there’s a part of you that’s left inside of me
Yesterday just took me hostage
Yesterday locked me away from any truth
And now tomorrow's here without you
I know it’s hard I’ve tried
I could never say goodbye
I know it’s hard I tried
I could never say goodbye
I don’t ever wanna believe
I don’t ever wanna believe yeah
That when we die
We all leave
I don’t ever wanna let go
I hope that you see yeah
That there’s a part of you that’s left inside of me
That there’s a part of you that left inside
I try to push you away
But you never push back
You know I’ll never forget you
I never thought I’d say that
You made a mess out of me
I don’t ever wanna believe
I don’t ever wanna believe yeah
That when we die
That we all leave
I don’t ever wanna believe
I don’t ever wanna believe yeah
That when we die
That we all leave
I don’t ever wanna let go
I hope that you see yeah
That there’s a part of you that’s left inside of me [x4]
The Wind Blows
I got to breathe
You can’t take that from me
Cause it’s all that you left that’s mine
You had to leave
And that’s all I can see
But you told me your love was blind
I know there are times
You’re so impossible that I should sign a waiver
And you will find
Someone worth walking on when you ask me to go
I’ll leave when the wind blows
Take a breath there your heart goes
I’ll be outside of your window
I’ll pass by but I’ll go slow
I’ll leave when the wind blows
There was a day
You threw our love away
Then you passed it to someone new
You wanna stay
But since you wanna play
We can finally say we’re through
And I know there are times
You’re so impossible and you ask me to go
I’ll leave when the wind blows
Take a breath there your heart goes
I’ll be outside of your window
I’ll pass by but I’ll go slow
I’ll leave when the wind blows
You can scream there’s just echoes
I’ll pass outside of your window
You’ll be sad that you let me go
I’ll leave but just know
As I lay in solitude
Oh what’s a boy supposed to do
I shake the very thought of you
Me together, I remember
Late nights when I stayed up late
All I do is wait and wait
You're never coming home to me
That’s the hardest thing to see
I got to breathe
You can’t take that from me
I can finally say we’re through
I’ll leave when the wind blows
Take a breath there your heart goes
I’ll be outside of your window
I’ll pass by but I’ll go slow
I’ll leave when the wind blows
You can scream there’s just echoes
Pass outside of your window
You’ll be sad that you let me go
On every face you’ll ever know
And everywhere you ever go
You’ll feel when the wind blows
Sunshine
It's a new day
It's a bright day
Even when you stand in the dark
It's just that
You've been broken into fifty pieces
Today is gone
I'm the only light that you see
You need someone
I know all you needed was me
Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
Another pale moon
Shines like high noon
Midnight never felt so cold alone
It's just that you're uneasy
When you need me
Today is gone
I'm the only light that you see
You need someone
I know all you needed was me
Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
You can say it's right, but it feels so wrong
Just show me something true
Forget about the sunshine
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
Today is gone
I'm the only light that you see
You need someone
I know all you needed was me
Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
You can think it's right, but it feels so wrong
Just show me something true
Forget about the sunshine
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
You can think it's right, but it feels so wrong
Just show me something true
Forget about the sunshine
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
