Adam's Song I never thought I'd die alone I laughed the loudest who'd have known? I trace the cord back to the wall no wonder it was never plugged in at all I took my time, I hurried up the choice was mine I didn't think enough I'm too depressed to go on but you'll be sorry when I'm gone I never conquered, rarely came but 16 just held such better days days when I still felt alive we couldn't wait to get outside the world was wide, too late to try the tour was over, we'd survived I couldn't wait till I got home to pass the time in my room alone I never thought I'd die alone another six months I'll be unknown give all my things to all my friends you'll never step foot in my room again you'll close it off, you'll board it up remember the time that I spilled the cup of apple juice in the hall and please tell mom this is not her fault I never conquered, rarely came but 16 just held such better days days when I still felt alive we couldn't wait to get outside the world was wide, too late to try the tour was over, we'd survived I couldn't wait till I got home to pass the time in my room alone I never conquered, rarely came but tomorrow holds such better days days when I can still feel alive and I can't wait to get outside the world is wide, the time goes by the tour is over, I've survived I can't wait till I get home to pass the time in my room alone All The Small Things - (3:35) All the / small things true care / truth brings I'll take / one lift your ride / best trip always / I know you'll be / at my show watching, waiting, commiserating Say it ain't so, I will not go turn the lights off, carry me home Na, na, na, na....

Then later on, on the drive home I called her mom from a pay phone I said I was the cops and your husband's in jail this state looks down on sodomy And that's about the time that bitch hung up on me nobody likes you when you're 23 and are still more amused by prank phone calls what the hell is caller ID? my friends say I should act my age what's my age again? what's my age again?

I never want to act my age what's my age again? what's my age again? What's my age again?
Your Boyfriend Sucks You're better off without him, don't call him... He's breaking your heart. He's hanging with your best friend and your waiting there, It's tearing you apart. He lied to you a thousand times, When I was there he kept you waiting. And I'm still here waiting there To catch you if you fall. I don't know why I care so much When I shouldn't care at all. Finally got the nerve to tell you How much you mean to me you said that I was your best friend, A real sweet guy, but that's all I'd ever be. IN THIS DIARY Here in this diary, I write you visions of my summer. It was the best I ever had. There were choruses and sing-alongs, and not a spoken feeling. I'm knowing that right now is all that matters. All the nights we stayed up talking and listening to 80's songs; quoting lines from all those movies that we love. It still brings a smile to my face. I guess when it comes down to it... Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up: These are the best days of our lives. The only thing that matters is just following your heart and eventually you'll finally get it right. Breaking into hotel swimming pools, and wreaking havoc on our world. Hanging out at truck stops just to pass the time. The black top's singing me to sleep. Lighting fireworks in parking lots, illuminate the blackest nights. Cherry cokes under this moonlight summer sky. 2015 Riverside, it's time to say, "goodbye." Get on the bus, it's time to go. Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up: These are the best days of our lives. The only thing that matters is just following your heart, and eventually you'll finally get it right. THE SADDEST SONG Only two more days, until your birthday Yesterday was mine You'll be turning five I know what it's like, growing up without your father in your life So I pretend, I'm doing all I can And I hope someday you'll find it in your heart To understand Why I'm not around And forgive me for not being in your life I remember waiting For you to come Remember waiting For you to call Remember waiting there to find nothing at all I remember waiting For you to come Remember waiting For you to call Waiting there to find nothing at all maybe some day youll rilly get to know me not jus from matters were to u i pray i get the chance To make it up to you We got a lot of catching up to do So I pretend, I'm doing all I can And hope someday you'll find it in your heart To understand Why I'm not around And forgive me for not being in your life I remember waiting For you to come Remember waiting For you to call Remember waiting there to find nothing at all I remember waiting For you to come Remember waiting For you to call Waiting there to find nothing at all Forgive me! I'm so sorry! I will make it up to you.... The Boys Of Summer Nobody on the road Nobody on the beach I feel it in the air The summer's out of reach Empty lake, empty streets The sun goes down alone I'm drivin' by your house Though I know you're not at home But I can see you- Your brown skin shinin' in the sun You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone I never will forget those nights I wonder if it was a dream Remember how you made me crazy? Remember how I made you scream Now I don't understand what happened to our love But babe, I'm gonna get you back I'm gonna show you what I'm made of I can see you- Your brown skin shinin' in the sun I see you walkin' real slow and you're smilin' at everyone I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone Out on the road today, I saw a BLACK FLAG sticker on a Cadillac A little voice Inside my head said, "Don't look back. You can never look back." I thought I knew what love was What did I know? Those days are gone forever I should just let them go but- I can see you- Your brown skin shinin' in the sun You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone I can see you- Your brown skin shinin' in the sun You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone
Waiting I've been waiting a long time for this moment to come I'm destined for anything at all downtown lights will be shining on me like a new diamond ring out under the midnight hour well no one can touch me now and I can't turn my back it's to late ready or not at all well I'm so much closer than I have ever known wake up dawning of a new era calling don't let it catch you falling ready or not at all oh so close enough to taste it almost I can embrace this feeling on the tip of my tounge well I'm so much closer than I have ever known wake up better thank your lucky stars (shey hey hey) well I'm so much closer than I have ever known wake up better thank your lucky stars (shey hey hey) I've been waiting a lifetime for this moment to come I'm dstined for anything at all dumbstruck colour me stupid good luck you're gonna need it where I'm going if I get there at all wake up better thank your lucky stars Backet Case Do you have the time To listen to me whine About nothing and everything all at once I am one of those Melodramatic fools Neurotic to the bone no doubt about it Sometimes I give myself the creeps Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me It all keeps adding up I think I'm cracking up Am I just paranoid Or am I just stoned I went to a shrink To analyze my dreams She says it's lack of sex That's bringing me down I went to a whore He said my life's a bore So quit my whining cause It's bringing her down Sometimes I give myself the creeps Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me It all keeps adding up I think I'm cracking up Am I just paranoid Or am I just stoned Grasping to control So I better hold on Sometimes I give myself the creeps Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me It all keeps adding up I think I'm cracking up Am I just paranoid Or am I just stoned Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life) Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road. Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go. So make the best of this test, and don't ask why. It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time. It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right. I hope you had the time of your life. So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind. Hang it on a shelf of good health and good time. Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial. For what it's worth, it was worth all the while. It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right. I hope you had the time of your life. It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right. I hope you had the time of your life.
New Beginnings hand me down some photographs spread across the floor a broken record spins in circles she can't listen anymore she's turned around a thousand times she set that bridge a fire but did you wanna listen you took the world with you so what is left so what is left for me i called you on the phone again just the other day it sounds to me you found your place and everything is great but did you wanna listen you took the world with you so what is left so what is left for me i try so hard to figure out why no explanation keeps me waiting lets try because i know you won't forget i know even if the story is over but did you wanna listen you took the world with you so what is left for me so what is left for me but did you wanna listen you took the world with you so what is left so what is left for me what's left for me Letters To You Can't you see that i wanna be there with open arms It's empty tonight and i'm all alone Get me through this one Do you notice i'm gone?

Another sleepless night turns color black and white. With all the things I've said, There is just regret. A beating in my head. Hands into a fist, Static in my head. Now I'm sitting face to face with lonlyness. What did I expect? Did I see forever in you? I never wanted it to hurt more than it should. I hope your satisfied, I never could. Time to close my eyes Forget about this mess. Tried to fix this trajic loss of innocence. But how can I forget, The things I haven't done. When everything is dead? With my hands around your neck who will stop me now? With my hands around your neck who will stop me now? with my hands around your neck who will stop me now? with my hands around your neck who will stop me now? WHO WILL STOP ME!? (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW!?) Can't you see that you left me here on my own. Give me on good reason why I should let go now....

Waiting On Me Take this gun away. I'm not asking for sympathy. Staring at the screen. I'm not leaving so you won't win. I'm comfortable to let you go. Waiting on me. The timing's off. It's just a show. Waiting on me. My heart has stopped. The desire's gone. Take this cup away so I can breathe. I'm on empty. My priorities are not set straight so I can't see. I'm comfortable to leave you cold. Waiting on me. The timing's off, I'm moving slow. Waiting on me. My heart has stopped. The desire's gone and I don't have the time to waste your time. Waiting on me. The timing's off, just let me go. Waiting on me. Your heart will stop, I will move on. And I don't have the time to waste your time All That You Have What if everything you had, You had to give back? Would you be the same? I don't think you would There's so many things that you don't appreciate No! [Chorus:] All that you have And have you ever really thought About all that you've got More than what you own Your family and your friends Without which you would be left here all alone So when you're feeling down Just take a look around And look at all you have And you'll see that things are really not that bad [Chorus:] All that you have All that you have Things aren't that bad With all that you have
.Again I Go Unnoticed.. So quiet another wasted night, the television steals the conversation exhale, another wasted breath, again it goes unnoticed. Please tell me you're just feeling tired cause if it's more than that I feeel that I might break out of touch, out of time. Please send me anything but signals that are mixed casue I can't read your rolling eyes out of touch, are we out of time? Close lipped another goodnight kiss is robbed of all it's passion, your grip another time, is slack it leaves me feeling empty. I'll wait until tomorrow maybe you'll feel better then maybe we'll be better then so what's another day when I can't bear these nights of thoughts of going on without you this mood of yours is temporary it seems worth the wait to see your smile again out of the corner of your eye won;t be the only way you'll look at me then.
