Flat On The Floor:
Not like I need to depend on anyone
Since I can see the lack of need for you to be here at all
"One more" the anthem for the know-it-all
You won't be standing up for long
You better learn how to crawl
In 10 minutes I'll be laying out flat on the floor
Like I need to defend my own innocence
So what I did it, I admit it, and I'm pleading the fifth
"Two more" the anthem for the know-it-all
You won't be standing up for long
You better learn how to crawl
8 minutes from losing it a little bit
5 minutes your description might be starting to fit
3 to go and I'm forgetting all that I've ever known
I won't be standing up for long
I better learn how to crawl
Can't stand anymore
In 10 minutes I'll be laying out flat on the floor

Do This Anymore:
Left on an eastbound train
Gone first thing this morning
Why's what's best for you
Always the worst thing for me
When am I gonna learn
Why? 'Cause I'm tired of hating
When will it be your turn?
Why? 'Cause I'm tired of waiting
No I don't
No I don't
No I don't
Well no I don't find faith in your forced feelings
Not fooled by your misleadings
Won't buy this line you're selling
Tired of this lie you're telling
I won't, I don't
No I won't do this anymore
I won't, I don't
No I won't do this anymore
She says I'm only telling half of it
That's probably 'cause there's only half worth telling
And everytime I try to laugh it off
That's when you turn around and wind up yelling
When am I gonna learn
Why? 'Cause I'm tired of hating
When will it be your turn?
Why? 'Cause I'm tired of waiting
No I don't
No I don't
No I don't
No I don't find faith in your forced feelings
Not fooled by your misleadings
Won't buy this line you're selling
Tired of this lie you're telling
I won't, I don't
No I won't do this anymore
I won't, I don't
No I won't do this anymore
She says I'm only telling half of it
That's probably 'cause there's only half worth telling
And everytime I try to laugh it off
That's when you turn around and wind up yelling
When am I gonna learn
Why? 'Cause I'm tired of hating
When will it be your turn?
Why? 'Cause I'm tired of waiting
No I don't
No I don't
No I don't
No I don't find faith in your forced feelings
Not fooled by your misleadings
Won't buy this line you're selling
Tired of this lie you're telling
I won't, I don't
No I won't do this anymore
I won't, I don't
No I won't do this anymore

Someday:
How the h*ll'd we wind up like this
And why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try to turn the tables
I wish you'd unclench your fists
And unpack your suitcase
Lately there's been too much of this
But don't think it's too late
Nothing's wrong
Just as long as you know that someday I will
Someday, somehow
I'm gonna make it alright
But not right now
I know you're wondering when
You're the only one who knows that
Someday somehow
I'm gonna make it alright
But not right now
I know you're wondering when
Well I'd hope that since we're here anyway
That we could end up saying
Things we've always needed to say
So we could end up staying
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Let's rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a Hollywood horror
Nothing's wrong
Just as long as you know that someday I will
Someday, somehow
I''m gonna make it alright
But not right now
I know you're wondering when
You're the only one who knows that
Someday somehow
I'm gonna make it alright
But not right now
I know you're wondering when
You're the only one who knows that
I know you're wondering when
You're the only one who knows that
I know you're wondering when

Believe It Or Not:
Believe it or not everyone have things that they hide
Believe it or not everyone keep most things inside
Believe it or not everyone believe in something above
Believe it or not everyone need to feel loved
But we don't and we won't
Until we figure out
Could someone deliver us
Just send us some kind of sign
So close to giving up
'Cause faith is so hard to find
But you don't and you won't
Until we figure out
I've seen it a lot every time the world turns upside down
Believe it or not most of us feel like we're losing ground
Believe it or not everyone hate admitting fear
Believe it or not most of us wanna know why we're here
But we don't and we won't
Until we figure out
Could someone deliver us
Just send us some kind of sign
So close to giving up
'Cause faith is so hard to find
Could someone deliver us
Just send us some kind of sign
So close to giving up
'Cause faith is so hard to find
But you don't and you won't
Until we figure out
Most of us have nothing to complain about
Most of us have things we could live without
Everyone need advice on how to get along
You don't, we won't
Until we figure out
Believe it or not everyone have things that they hide
Believe it or not everyone keep most things inside
Believe it or not everyone believe in something above
Believe it or not everyone need to feel loved
But we don't and we won't
Until we figure out
Could someone deliver us
Just send us some kind of sign
So close to giving up
'Cause faith is so hard to find
Could someone deliver us
Just send us some kind of sign
So close to giving up
'Cause faith is so hard to find
But we don't and we won't
Until we figure out
But we don't and we won't
Until we figure out

Feelin Way To Damn Good:
I missed you so much that I begged you to fly and see me
You must've broke down 'cause you finally said that you would
But now that you're here I just feel like I'm constantly dreaming
Well something's gotta go wrong 'cause I'm feeling' way too damn good
For 48 hours I don'w think that we left my hotel room
Should show you the sights 'cause I'm sure that I said that I would
We gotta make love just one last time in the shower
Well somethings gotta go wrong 'cause I'm feelin' way too damn good
And it's like
Every time I turn around
I fall in love and find my heart face down and
Where it lands is where it should
This time it's like
The two of us should probably start to fight
"Cause something's gotta go wrong 'cause I'm feeling way too damn good
Feelin' way too damn good
Sometimes I think best if left in the memory
It's better kept inside than left for good
Looking back each time they tried to tell me
Well somethings gotta go wrong 'cause I'm feelin' way too damn good
And it's like
Every time I turn around
I fall in love and find my heart face down and
Where it lands is where it should
This time it's like
The two of us should probably start to fight
"Cause something's gotta go wrong 'cause I'm feeling way too damn good
Feelin' way too damn good
I missed you so much that I begged you to fly and see me
You must've broke down 'cause you finally said that you would
But now that you're here I just feel like I'm constantly dreaming
Well something's gotta go wrong 'cause I'm feeling' way too damn good
And it's like
Every time I turn around
I fall in love and find my heart face down and
Where it lands is where it should
This time it's like
The two of us should probably start to fight
"Cause something's gotta go wrong 'cause I'm feeling way too damn good
Feelin' way too damn good
I missed you so much that I begged you to fly and see me
Feelin' way too damn good
I missed you so much that I begged you to fly and see me

Because of You:
Hands on the mirror
Can't get much clearer
Can't make this all go away
Now that you're bleeding
You stare at the ceiling
And watch as it all fades away
From what you do, because of you
You know I can't be there
Each time that you call
I swore not to come
But I'm here after all
I know by the look that I see in your eye
I won't stand around and I won't watch you die
From what you do
(What you do, what you do, what's because of you
What you do, what you do, what's because of)
Now that you did this
You ask for forgiveness
Doctor could you be my priest
You say you're mistaken
But look what you've taken
You laugh as you lie through your teeth
From what you do, because of you
You know I can't be there
Each time that you call
I swore not to come
But I'm here after all
I know by the look that I see in your eye
I won't stand around and I won't watch you die
From what you do
(What you do, what you do, what's because of you
What you do, what you do, what's because of)
From what you do
Hands on the mirror
Can't get much clearer
Can't make this all go away
Now that you're bleeding
You stare at the ceiling
And watch as it all fades away
From what you do, because of you
You know I can't be there
Each time that you call
I swore not to come
But I'm here after all
I know by the look that I see in your eye
I won't stand around and I won't watch you die
From what you do
(What you do, what you do, what's because of you)
What you do
(What you do, what you do, what's because of)
Because of you

Figured You Out:
I like your pants around your feet
And I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favorite damn disease
And I love the places that we go
And I love the people that you know
And I love the way you can't say "No"
Too many long lines in a row
I love the powder on your nose
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
Now I did, you wonder why
I like the freckles on your chest
And I like the way you like me best
And I like the way you're not impressed
While you put me to the test
I like the white stains on your dress
I love the way you pass the check
And I love the good times that you wreck
And I love your lack of self respect
While you're passed out on the deck
I love my hands around your neck
And I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
Now I did, you wonder why
Why not before, you never tried
Gone for good, and this is it
I like your pants around your feet
And I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favorite damn disease
And I hate the places that we go
And I hate the people that you know
And I hate the way you can't say "No"
Too many long lines in a row
I hate the powder on your nose
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
Now I did, you wonder why
Why not before, you never tried
Gone for good, and this is it

Should've Listened:
There's clothes all over the floor
I don't remember them being there before
The smell of perfume isn't here
Why's there lipstick on the mirror
Still I don't understand
No pictures left in the hall
There's three new holes in the wall
Where the hell's my credit cards?
Why's my wallet in the yard?
Still I don't understand
Well now I guess I should've listened
When you said you'd had enough
A little trick that I picked up from my father
In one ear and out the other
Why must life be so tough
Should see the look on my face
My s*it's all over the place
Why's this happening to me?
Why'd you take both sets of keys?
And still I don't understand
Well now I guess I should've listened
When you said you'd had enough
A little trick that I picked up from my father
In one ear and out the other
Why must life be so tough

Throw Yourself Away:
Baby's born on the bathroom floor
Her mother prays that it'll never cry
But nothing's wrong, you've got your prom dress on
When they ask you'll say "It isn't mine"
You know they're gonna know you lied
Why the h*ll don't you throw yourself away
You know they're gonna burn it down
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you out
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you
Why the h*ll don't you throw yourself away
You know they're gonna burn it down
So keep the way you feel anonymous
And hide it all until the day you die
Your secret's safe, at least you thought it was
But you can only keep it for a little while
And now you're terrified
Why the h*ll don't you throw yourself away
You know they're gonna burn it down
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you out
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you
Why the h*ll don't you throw yourself away
You know they're gonna burn it down
Baby's born on the bathroom floor
Her mother prays that it'll never cry
But nothing's wrong, you've got your prom dress on
When they ask you'll say "It isn't mine"
And damn you for thinking we will never know
And damn you for thinking we would never mind
Only reason that you made it this far
You never asked Him but you never tried
Why the h*ll don't you throw yourself away
Why the h*ll don't you blow yourself away
You know they're gonna burn it down
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you out
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you out
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you
Why the h*ll don't you blow yourself away
You know they're gonna burn it down

Another Hole In The Head:
I'm through thinking of things to say to you
It's true I've said enough and so have you
Just drive, you slam the door and so do I
Tounge-tied from all the little things
And they're the reason that I scream
I needed you
Probably as bad as I need another hole in the head
Was I mean to you?
Car keys in your hand
I believe that you would leave me for dead
Your turn, you'd rather leave than live and learn
That's why you want an end and so do I
This time I'll leave and leave it all behind
Tounge-tied from all the little things
And they're the reason that I scream
I needed you
Probably as bad as I need another hole in the head
Was I mean to you?
Car keys in your hand
I believe that you would leave me for dead
Well I believe that you would leave me for dead
I believe that you would leave me for dead
I'm through thinking of things to say to you
It's true I've said enough and so have you
Just drive, you slam the door and so do I
Tounge-tied from all the little things
And they're the reason that I scream
I needed you
Probably as bad as I need another hole in the head
Was I mean to you?
Car keys in your hand
I believe that you would leave me for dead
I needed you
Probably as bad as I need another hole in the head
Was I mean to you?
Car keys in your hand
I believe that you would leave me for dead
I believe that you would leave me for dead
I believe that you would leave me for dead

See You At The Show:
Crowds that scream at superstars
Where bouncers show their battle scars
I've been the first to sign on every wall
Down the road and round the bend
We pray to God it never ends
I've been, I've seen, we've screamed to everyone
We'll see you at the show
If you don't come we'll never know
You stand off in the back
You still stand out while you're wearing black
Jump onto the bus
And ride around with all of us
We'll go out on the town
And light it up 'till we burn it down
After hours and alcohol
Every club, we've seen 'em all
As long as we don't need to stand in line
Party scenes and billboard dreams
The ladies love those limousines
You know they're going to show up every time
We'll see you at the show
If you don't come we'll never know
You stand off in the back
You still stand out while you're wearing black
Jump onto the bus
And ride around with all of us
We'll go out on the town
And light it up 'till we burn it down
Burn it down
Crowds that scream at superstars
Where bouncers show their battle scars
I've been the first to sign on every wall
Down the road and round the bend
We pray to God it never ends
I've been, I've seen, we've screamed to everyone
We'll see you at the show
If you don't come we'll never know
You stand off in the back
You still stand out while you're wearing black
Jump onto the bus
And ride around with all of us
We'll go out on the town
And light it up 'till we burn it down
Burn it down
L ight it up 'till we burn it down
Burn it down
We're gonna light it up 'till we burn it down

Saturday Night's Alright (for Fighting):
It's getting late, I haven't seen my date
So tell me where the boys get in
It's seven o'clock and I want to rock
Want to get a belly full of beer
My old man's drunker than a bar full of winos
And his old lady she don't care
My sister lookin' cute in her braces and boots
A handful of grease in her hair
Don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this town alight
`Cause Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright alright alright
pppp...packed pretty tight in here tonight
I'm looking for a woman who'll see me right
I could use a little muscle to get what I need
I'll drink a fifth of jack and scream out "she's with me!"
A couple of the sound that I really like
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike
I'm a juvenile product of the working class
Whose best friend floats from the bottom of a glass
Don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this town alight
`Cause Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright alright alright
Don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this town alight
`Cause Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright alright alright
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday,
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday Night's Alright
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday,
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday Night's Alright
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday,
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday Night's Alright

Learn The Hard Way:
Hey there little darling, where'd the old man go?
Why don't we get out of town and do it all night long?
We can lie out in the field til the morning light
Then me and your old man are gonna have to fight
Start the loving in the truck and wind up in the ditch
The old man will come a-runnin' with a hickory switch
Oh, no, gotta learn this some day
Why, I, gotta learn the hard way
Buddy showed me just how fast a car can go
I'll race you for your pink slip right before this show
Put your girlfriend in the bet to make things good
Cause she's been staring at me like no girlfriend should
Bastards sitting right there on the starting line
Stuck the sugar in your gas tank by myself last night
Oh, no, gotta learn this some day
Why, I, gotta learn the hard way
Hey there little darling, where'd the old man go?
Why don't we get out of town and do it all night long?
We can lie out in the field til the morning light
Then me and your old man are gonna have to fight
Start the loving in the truck and wind up in the ditch
The old man will come a-runnin' with a hickory switch
Oh, no, gotta learn this some day
Why, I, gotta learn the hard way
Oh, no, gotta learn this some day
Why, I, gotta learn the hard way

Yankin Out My Heart:
Feelin' fine
Let's rip out yours instead of mine
And all you need
Are several ways to watch me bleed
Well thanks for stoppin' this beatin' in my chest
Well it's easier now and I'm happy like this

Even though I ain't comin back now I
Didn't mean to seem as though
I was so ungrateful for all you've done here
For yankin out my...
Honestly, you fucked your friends for all your needs
