Fallin' Down
Do you know, where you want to go?
'Cause all I ever wanted's so far gone
You're making me fall down,
Do you see, what you do to me?
I ain't got time for you now
Do you think, that I'll ever be?
And if I had my chance, I'd go along
I'm fallin' down again
I wish you could fall down,
Can you catch me darling?
You ain't got time for it now
Do you think, that I'll ever be?
'Cause all I ever wanted's so far gone
And if I had my chance, I'd go along
You're making me fall down
I'm falling down again
I wish you could fall down
Can you catch me darling?
'Cause all I ever wanted's so far gone
And if I had my chance, I'd go along
You're making me fall down
I'm falling down again
I wish you could fall down
Can you catch me darling?

��������������������� Lucky Star
If I could walk a straight mile
To 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 you'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
They're gonna turn you around
����������������
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
You whispered in my mouth
You beat your head upon your wall
'Cause you're gone, and you ain't coming back You held your hand so close
You beat your head upon your wall
'Cause you're gone, and you ain't coming back
You beat your head upon your wall
'Cause you're gone, and you ain't coming back
���������������
I called you up all night til mornin'
And the sun shines all around us
Don't worry 'bout today, and the words that you
said
You see, the day keeps getting longer
Don't worry 'bout today, and the words that you
said

Girl Right Next To Me
You changed my face, I think I like it better
now
I made my bed, but now I can't sleep at night
And when you dream 17
I lie in my bed, you're running through my head
And when you dream 17
And when you dream 17
And when you dream 17

Domino
If you never had it then
�Here comes the day, I sit and
I borrowed from you yesterday
�Here comes the day, I sit and
Dominoes are falling still
And I spit you words right back
How good do you think I'll look
When the words start to break and crack
You disconnect yourself from it all
'Cause 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
Yeah you're gone, and you ain't coming back
And I just can't push you away
I wished you could be my girl
But you're stuck in your a grown-up world
You disconnect yourself from it all
'Cause 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
Yeah you're gone, and you ain't coming back
You disconnect yourself from it all
'Cause 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
Yeah you're gone, and you ain't coming back
Yeah you're gone, and I wish you'd come back
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
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, shake the world from
your head
Least for a while
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, shake the world from
your head
Least for a while

It doesn't matter anyhow, 'cause that's the way
it is
You said hello, where the hell you been?
I said I feel like I've been off to war, and
I may never be the same
again
I'm tossin and turnin 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
I ain't there, so I don't care
'Cause in all my dreams, I'm 23
And she's the girl right next to me
See that girl right next to me
Going over and over and over, the things that
you said
I'm caught in the trap, I'll run like hell right
back to you
'Cause I'm sober with you and you know it beats
drinking alone
I ain't there, so I don't care
'Cause in all my dreams, I'm 23
And she's the girl right next to me
See that girl right next to me
I ain't there, so I don't care
'Cause in all my dreams, I'm 23
And she's the girl right next to me
See that girl right next to me
I ain't there, so I don't care
'Cause in all my dreams, I'm 23
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

We Are The NormalIt'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 with a chill
That ain't so obvious
We are the normal
It's a beautiful life and I've got it in my sights
We live and we die
With no reason why
We are the normal
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
I've got no politics, no influential friend or
two
I've got ideas, but it's nothing 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 alibi, 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 better
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 better
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
Happy, smilin', cryin' outburst to my past
I guess those stormy gray skies simply couldn't
last
And now I find myself a-tugging at your dress
The fun of holding you down, or seein' you frown,
it's never gonna pass
Somewhere there's a place a soul can never go
Gray like stormy skies I hoped you didn't know
All our postcards full of things I won't forget
And now it's coming 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
About 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 now, 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
You need someone to hold you
I'm just like you
'Cause I couldn't stop the world, 'cause I loved
you
You had another bad day
'Cause the stars you see are on a dirty sidewalk
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
And I know
It's what I'd do
Here I go
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 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
And they ain't polished and new
If 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
I'm not too young for the world
I'm not too young for the world
And I can't change for the world
'Cause I don't care for the world
I don't need to stop the world
It don't make sense, the world

Already There
I look outside my window
I couldn't care, 'cause I'm already there
Turn around and face the clock
I couldn't care, 'cause I'm already there.
Just a boy who's young at heart
Everything 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
And getting up was fun
I'm already there, and I'm ready there
I'd 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 colliden
I'm already there, and I'm ready there
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
He burnt down the house one night
And I never got serious
On the lie
He said, man, you want to be Elvis
And I never got serious
On the lie On the lie, he was
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 clich�s all
night
But I'm not in love with you
'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
I said I ain't dying face down
He said you've got to die facing up in the world
'Cause 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
'Cause it's the ugliest place in the whole wide
world
'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, she was
On the lie
On the lie
On the lie, he was
On the lie
It's all been a stinkin' lie
����������������� Close Your Eyes
I wish I had a saxophone
Now that all my time was spent
Had a certain passion
Don't close your eyes to me
I'd play the blues 'til you came home
With a little sadness in your eye
In the walk that heaven sent
Thinking 'bout all the nights you cried
And I had surly dreams
A look of vicious actions
Don't close your eyes to me
Oh don't close your eyes to me
Don't 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
Why do you stare me down?
And I didn't get those things
Tell me something I don't know
And I hate your attitude And I didn't get those things
Tell me something I don't know
And I know
So far away
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 don't need to 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
I ain't scared at all
'Cause 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
Things that you can't grow
You say that it's all my fault
And I don't need to 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
I don't know
(Rock and roll)
And I say that
If you break enough glass and there's no one
to hear
And your heart's full of hate
'Cause your mind's full of fear
Let it go
So far away
So far away
Oh so far away
So far away
So far away
