Fallin' Down
Lyrics

Do you know where you wanna go?

I ain't got time for you now

Do you think, that I'll ever be?

Cuz all I ever wanted's so far gone

And if I had my chance, I'd go along

You're makin' me fall down

I'm fallin' down again

I wish you could fall down

Can you catch me darling?

Do you see what you do to me?

You ain't got time for it now

Do you think, that I'll ever be?

Cuz all I ever wanted's so far gone

And if I had my chance, I'd go along

You're makin' me fall down

I'm falling down again

I wish you could fall down

Can you catch me darling?

Cuz all I ever wanted's so far gone

And if I had my chance, I'd go along

You're makin' me fall down

I'm falling down again

I wish you could fall down

Can you catch me darling, oh no

I'm home,

I'm home,

I'm home,

I'm home
Lucky Star
Lyrics

If I could walk a straight mile
And could write it down in shorthand, I could show you
If you want me to
And if I had an hourglass
I'd save the grains of time I spent with you
That's what I'd do

But I remember
You always said it could be great
And I knew it could be

Well there's a way you look at things
That no one needs to know but you
And you'd shout it with me
Like every time the leaves would fall
You promised me that they'd be back again
And I believed in you

You always said it could be great
But I hadn't time to waste
Now it seems that I've gone too far

As bright as you are, don't get burned by your lucky star
Bright as you are, don't get burned by your lucky star

Written down in hard bound books
The way things used to be, they ain't for me
I'd swear they're all for you
We said sugar, Gramps said shoot
Her momma said shit, I don't know what she'll do
As if it's up to you

But I remember
You always said it could be great
But I hadn't time to waste
Now it seems that I've gone too far

As bright as you are, don't get burned by your lucky star
Bright as you are, don't get burned by your lucky star

Your lucky star will burn out
Your lucky star can turn you 'round
Your lucky star will burn out
Your lucky star can turn you 'round
Turn you 'round, turn you 'round, turn you 'round
They're gonna turn you around
Cuz You're Gone
Lyrics

You whispered in my mouth

And I spit you words right back

How good do you think I'll look

When the words start to break and crack?

You beat your head upon your wall

You disconnect yourself from it all

Cuz you know that you're so beautiful and so untouchable

And I want to get in so bad, and I don't know how

No, I don't know how

Cuz you're gone, and you ain't coming back

Yeah you're gone, and you ain't coming back

You held your hand so close

And I just can't push you away

I wished you could be my girl

But you're stuck in a grown up world

You beat your head upon your wall

You disconnect yourself from it all

Cuz you know that you're so beautiful and so untouchable

And I want to get in so bad, and I don't know how

No I don't know how

Cuz you're gone, and you ain't coming back

Yeah you're gone, and you ain't coming back

You beat your head upon your wall

You disconnect yourself from it all

Cuz you know that you're so beautiful and so untouchable

And I want to get in so bad, and I don't know how

And I don't know how

Cuz you're gone, and you ain't coming back

Yeah you're gone, and you ain't coming back

Yeah you're gone, and I wish you'd come back
Don't Worry
Lyrics

I called you up all night 'til mornin'

Left my house by noon today (and I saw you standing there)

No one spoke but we both listened

Heard every word you didn't say

And the sun shines all around us

Smells like summer's on the way (and I saw you standing there)

Tell the story of a lifetime

Tomorrow brings a brand new day

Don't worry 'bout today (and the words that you said)

Don't worry 'bout today (shake the world from your head)

Least for a while

You see, the days keep getting longer

But my nights seem longer still (and my TV's off the air)

Watching repeats on my ceiling

Another hour left to kill

Don't worry 'bout today (and the words that you said)

Don't worry 'bout today (shake the world from your head)

Least for a while
Girl Right Next To Me
Lyrics

You changed my face

I think I like it better now

It doesn't matter anyhow

Cuz that's the way it is

You said hello

Where the hell you been?

I said I feel like I been off to war

And I may never be the same again

I made my bed, but now I can't sleep at night

Cuz you're tossing and turning, you know, you know it ain't right

I'd love to beg, see, but I'm just too proud

And I don't even know what to say, so I'm thinking out loud

And when you dream, seventeen

I ain't there, so I don't care

Cuz in all my dreams, I'm twenty-three

And she's the girl right next to me

See that girl right next to me

I lie in my bed, you're running through my head

Going over and over and over the things that you said

I'm caught in the trap, I'd run like hell right back to you

Cuz I'm sober with you and you know it beats drinking alone

And when you dream, seventeen

I ain't there, so I don't care

Cuz in all my dreams, I'm twenty-three

And she's the girl right next to me

See that girl right next to me

And when you dream, seventeen

I ain't there, so I don't care

Cuz in all my dreams, I'm twenty-three

And she's the girl right next to me

See that girl right next to me

She's the girl right next to me

See that girl right next to me
Domino
Lyrics

If you never had it then

You don't know how bad it is

There is nothing like it, well

Needless talk, then, I can tell but

Here comes the day I sit and wait... (Dominoes are falling still)

Oh, it's always something

The bills keep coming, the car ain't running... (As I know they always will)

Now I'm bummin' home again

Another day, oh, the mailman's on his way... (Dominoes, a test of will)

Just sit and wait

Always ponderin' my fate too late... (Dominoes)

And then the day goes

I bought them from you yesterday

Little buts til you ask me

No one minds, I can tell

Seems I've hid the ones you shall, but

Here comes the day I sit and wait... (Dominoes are falling still)

Oh, it's always something

The bills keep coming, the car ain't running... (As I know they always will)

Now I'm bummin' home again

Another day, oh, the mailman's on his way... (Dominoes, a test of will)

Just sit and wait

Always ponderin' my fate too late... (Dominoes)

And then the day goes

Dominoes are falling still... (Oh, every day)

As I know they always will... (I sit and wait)

Dominoes, a test of will... (That's why I'm pondering my fate too late)

Dominoes... (And then the day goes)
We Are The Normal
Lyrics

It's a beautiful day, I heard everybody say
The sun shines down for all of us
Just the same, you know I like the rain
That ain't so obvious

It's a beautiful sight, I guess everybody's right
This day belongs to all of us
Even still, I like mine with a chill
That ain't so obvious

We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why

It's a beautiful life, and I've got it in my sights
And that ain't for all of us
It's a beautiful sound
When my life comes crashin' down
That ain't so obvious
It's a beautiful sin, and I'm doin' it again
And that ain't for all of us
It's a beautiful life, and I've got it in my sights
Ain't that so obvious?

We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why

We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
There's no reason why

We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
String of Lies
Lyrics

I've got no politics, no influential friend or two
I've got ideas, but it's nothin' I picked up at school
I might be running, but I'm never running back to you

And here's a letter from the real world, I don't expect you'll reply
And anything you're gonna tell me, it's just another lie

I had to wait so long that weeks and months that passed me by
You've got no power and my situation don't apply
You ask me how I am, I lie and say I'm doing fine

And with your sugar-sweetend alibis, there was a truth I never knew
And all the attitude you gave me, it's coming back to you

String of lies, it's always compromise with you
String of lies, you know there's nothing left to do
String of lies, it's been a string of lies with you

And here's a letter from the real world, I don't expect you'll reply
And anything you're gonna tell me, it's just another lie

String of lies, we always compromise for you
String of lies, you know there's nothing left to do
String of lies, it's been a string of lies with you
String of lies, we always compromise for you

And here's a letter from the real world
Another Second Time Around
Lyrics

Happy, smilin', cryin,
Outburst to my past.
I guess those stormy gray skies simply couldn't last.
And now I find myself a-tuggin' at your dress.
The fun of holdin' you down, or seein' you frown, is never gonna pass.

Somewhere there's a place a soul can never go,
Grey like stormy skies I hoped you didn't know.
All our postcards full of things I won't forget,
And now it's comin' down, that laughing clown is all I ever get.

Another second time around I've been runnin' from ya,
Another second time around.
Another second, one more second time I waited for ya,
Another second time around.

Couldn't help myself,
I felt like everything was gonna pass.
It was an awkward time,
I hoped it wouldn't, hoped it couldn't last.

And I didn't know exactly what to say,
'Bout the things you saw me do my evil way.
And I know you're lyin', cryin' in your bed,
Well I'm all tired out, so wired out, it's ringing in my head.

Another second time around I've been runnin' from ya,
Another second time around.
Another second, one more second time I waited for ya,
Another second time around.
Another second time around
Another second time around
Stop The World
Lyrics

You need someone to hold you
You need somethin' that you ain't been getting
Yeah, I could be the one
To tell you what to do, but it don't mean nothing
And you're holding on forever
But that something just ain't true
I'm just like you
And I know
It's what I'd do
Here I go

Cause I couldn't stop the world, cause I loved you
I couldn't stop the world, and I don't want to
I couldn't stop the world, and I won't
Cause it ain't enough

You had another bad day
You let me know that you just can't take it
I've given up on you
You live in truth and I know I can't fake it

Cause the stars you see on dirty sidewalks
And they ain't for wishin', ooh
They don't come true
And I know, it's what I'd do
Here I go

Cause I couldn't stop the world, 'cause I loved you
I couldn't stop the world, and I don't want to
I couldn't stop the world, and I won't
Cause it ain't enough

Am I too young for the world?
I'm not too young for the world
And I can't change for the world
(I don't need to stop the world)
'Cause I don't care for the world
(I'm too young, I'm too young)
I don't make sense to the world
(I don't need to stop the world)
(I'm too young, I'm too young)
Already There
Lyrics

I look outside my window,e verything was blanketed in white

The neighbors pushing cars out from snow that fell on us last night

Started thinking 'bout the things we used to do when we were young

Back when things were simple, getting up was fun

I couldn't care, cuz I'm already there

I'm already there, and I'm ready there

Turn around and face the clock

I sit and watch, as time went hoppin' by

I'm still growing up, my friends are growing old before my eyes

Count the stars above, wonder when the heavens will subside

Knowing our two worlds will someday just collide

I couldn't care, cuz I'm already there

I'm already there, and I'm ready there

Just a boy who's young at heart, his smile was a bit like yours today

Had a wife, a kid, some strife, never had to go astray

Happiness evolved, life was in full swing at 17

All the things he wanted were things he'd never seen

It don't seem fair, cuz I'm already there

I'm already there, and I'm ready there
On The Lie
Lyrics

He burned down the house one night
He had a loaded six-pack gun
He said that Jesus Christ was just like a cop
You know, you never know when they'll come
She said every day above ground was another dream come true
He said I'd hang and swap clichés all night
But I'm not in love with you

And I never got serious
'Til everything went black
And I ain't so curious
That I'm ever going back

On the lie
On the lie
On the lie
On the lie

He said, man you want to be Elvis
I said I ain't dying face down
He said you gotta die facing up in the world
Cuz there's too many holes around

He asked what was wrong with me
He said I looked like a Hollywood girl
I said that Hollywood can fall into the ocean, man
Cuz it's the ugliest place in the whole wide world, and

And I never got serious
'Til everything went black
And I ain't so curious
That I'm ever going back

On the lie
On the lie
On the lie
On the lie

On the lie, he was
On the lie
On the lie, she was
On the lie
On the lie, he was
On the lie
It's all been a stinkin' lie
Close Your Eyes
Lyrics

I wish I had a saxophone

I'd play the blues 'til you came home

With a little sadness in your eyes

Now that all my time was spent

In the walk your heaven sent

Thinking 'bout all the nights you cried

Had a certain passion

And I had silly dreams

A look of vicious actions

Don't close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

Oh, don't close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

I wish I had a camera lens

To film the things my mind had said

Before they reached my mouth and got all bad

Looking at the skies of blue

All day long, I think of you

Even after all the shit we've been through

Had a certain passion

And I had silly dreams

A look of vicious actions

Don't close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

Please don't close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

Oh, don't close your eyes to me

Close your eyes to me

Close your eyes to me

Eyes to me

Close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

Close your eyes to me

Close your eyes to me

Don't close your eyes to me

Eyes to me
So Far Away
Lyrics

Why do you stare me down?
Am I wrong?
Should I turn and kiss the ground?
And I never felt that way
I ain't the one and you know I don't come from such a place

And I didn't get those things
Those things that you can't grow
You say that it's all my fault
And I don't need to know

Tell me something I don't know
And I'll find that I'm always looking 'round behind me
You said that it's all been said before
Now I find that there's something I don't know

And I hate your attitude
I ain't scared at all cuz it don't matter what you do
And I'll turn around to see the truth
You're tearing it down, yeah, you're bringing it down
And it's all on you

And I didn't get those things
Those things that you can't grow
You say that it's all my fault
And I don't need to know

Tell me something I don't know
And I'll find that I'm always looking 'round behind me
You said that it's all been said before
Now I find that there's something I don't know

And I know
I don't know
(Rock and roll)
And I'll stay there
If you break enough glass and there's no one to hear
And your heart's full of hate cuz your mind's full of fear
Let it go

Oh, so far away
So far away
So far away
(Something I don't know)
Oh, so far away
So far away
So far away
