better off dead


ash his heart onto the ground
pull his guts out by frustration
be careful you might kill him
just cause he can't hear what you say
doesn't mean that he's not listening
if you listen to your words
he might like what you say
so you've been going out for years
and I'm sure that you've been happy
happy with your role
you've been looking up to him
as if you've forgotten of your own life
forgotten of your own face
burn and start again
just cause he can't hear what you say
doesn't mean that he's not listening
if you listen to your words
he might like what you say
on my own again
that's what she said
i'm leaving you tomorrow
but she already left
she already left me
she said i'm better off dead
it's your own life
live it for yourself
it's your own life
live for your...
just cause he can't hear what you say
doesn't mean that he's not listening
if you listen to your words
he might like what you say
on my own again
that's what she said
i'm leaving you tomorrow
but she already left
she already left me
she said i'm better off dead

dressed to kill

i know it's hard for you
to understand what i'm going through
but now i sit here to remind myself
you're always dressed to kill
and you feel like you owe it to the world
but you owe it to yourself
and you're, you're not here
and i can't stop pretending
that you're forever mine...and i
i can't dream anymore since you left
i miss you singing me to sleep
i can't wake anymore in your arms
i miss you singing me to sleep
cheer up my friends all say
you're better alone anyway
but you're always on tour
and you're never home
i'm always dressed to kill
and i feel like i owe to the world
but i owe it to myself
and you're, you're not here
and i can't stop pretending
that you're forever mine...and i
i can't dream anymore since you left
i miss you singing me to sleep
i can't wake anymore in your arms
i miss you singing me to sleep
cheer up my friends all say...
and i can't stop pretending
that you're forever mine
you're better alone anyway
and you're not here, not here
i can't dream anymore since you left
i miss you singing me to sleep
i can't wake anymore in your arms
i miss you singing me to sleep
cheer up my friends all say...

sincerely me

dear your name here...
it's been a long time, very long time
since i've heard your voice
and i bet she never thought i was
so sorry so?
i've had a hard time, very hard time
seeing less of you
i never thought you knew
so can you see
you're seeing less of me darling
and you're blind to the fact that my
heart stopped beating
and i'm as good as dead
dear i forgot your name again...
just picking up where i left off
(oh yeah) this is the part where you leave me
so sorry so?
i've had a hard time, very hard time
seeing less of you
i never thought you knew
so can you see
you're seeing less of me darling
and you're blind to the fact that my
heart stopped beating
and i'm as good as dead
this is all i have to
say

hit or miss

the needle on my record player has been wearing thin
this record has been playing since the day you've been with him
no more long rides home
no more of your station
i didn't like it anyway
remember the time we wrote our names up on the wall
remember the time we realized "thriller" was our favorite song
have i waited too long
have i found that someone
have i waited too long
to see you

maybe it's for the best
maybe it's not for anything
it wouldn't be so bad to take this right from me
no more long rides home
no more of your station
i didn't like it anyway
remember the time we wrote our name up on the wall
remember the time we realized "thriller" was our favorite song
have i waited too long
have i found that someone
have i waited too long
to see you
how many times i've tried
it's simple to you, so simple to lie
how many times i've tried
blatant mistakes of your design
have i waited too long have i found that someone
have i waited too long
to see you
i've had so many chances
turn my back and i ran away
i've had so many chances
to see you

second to last

i hate myself for losing you
i blame myself for pulling you apart
i guess this is the only way
i hate these eyes that noticed you
i blame my heart for breaking up that day
it didn't mean much anyway
it's you, you i figured out
it always helps to forget how to be yourself
it's you, you realize that your understanding this
understanding that you're all alone
today
is the first day of your life
the first day that you're on your own
now you know what to call home
i know i'm right for leaving you
now there's nothing left for me to say
it never meant much anyway
it's you, you i figured out
it always helps to forget how to be yourself
it's you, you realize that your understanding this
understanding that you're all alone
today
is the first day of your life
the first day that you're on your own
now you know what to call home
this could be
the second to last time
you're way too close to dive

eyesore

forget me not
those weren't your words
i'm home haven't you heard the ring?
the sound of my voice
i know it isn't much
that's why i say your name
when i fall, when i hit the bottom
girl, play on
the boys will stay even if you're gone
go girl, play on
the boys will stay even if you're gone
i've missed you
those weren't your words
seeing you became a charm
and everyday, i wish i could
everyday...
i say your name
when i fall, when i hit the bottom
girl, play on
the boys will stay even if you're gone
go girl, play on
the boys will stay even if you're gone
i say your name
when i fall, when i hit the bottom
girl, play on
the boys will stay even if you're gone
go girl, play on
the boys will stay even if you're gone

vegas

it doesn't take much to keep holding someone's hand
you have to keep your eyes open as wide as you can
you never know what could come along...
sometimes people think that they are so in love
when it's the first person that they have ever been with
i think it's so stupid
you have to keep your eyes open
you'll never know if she's right
it's so amazing how people can be held down
by just one person that doesn't even care what they think
i know it's so stupid
you have to keep your eyes open
you'll never know if she's right...

sucker

you're more than tongue tied this time
well i can feel it in your lips
nobody told me you were a sucker for a kiss
music low
we're all alone
being wrong never felt so right
tell me about your first kiss
tell me or have you already forgotten it
tell me about your first kiss
what do i have to do to get through all of this?
i'm writing it down
i bet you thought this song was about you
you're more than just mad this time
you've got that look in your eye
nobody told me you were a sucker for a kiss
music low
we're all alone
being wrong never felt so right
tell me about your first kiss
tell me or have you already forgotten it
tell me about your first kiss
what do i have to do to get through all of this?
i'm writing it down
just leave me here and tell me to my face
what you think about
can we figure out
what happened to our happy ending anyway?
how you feel about
leaving me here
with a lot more left to say
music low
we're all alone
being wrong never felt so right
tell me about your first kiss
tell me or have you already forgotten it
tell me about your first kiss
what do i have to do to get though all of this?
i'm writing it down
i bet you thought this song was about you

black & blue

it's time to open your eyes
and wake up to the morning
today calls out your name
and i can never be the same
without you
ruining my life
that's what you seem to be the best at
yeah, yeah, yeah
being drowned...
that's more that i can say for everyone else
i can't sleep
cause it's only four in the morning
i think i ran out of dreams
and i can never be the same
without you
ruining my life
that's what you seem to be the best at
yeah, yeah, yeah
being drowned...
that's more that i can say for everyone else
how can you say that you love me?
when the world around you is changing
how can you say that you love me?
when it's only eleven-thirty
ruining my life
that's what you seem to be the best at


boy crazy

some girls are crazy
just listen to what i have to say about it
you've gotta watch out for the beautiful ones
they'll twist your head right off your neck
and laugh about it with their friends
that's just one night for them
they target you with their eyes
and move with their lips
and it pulls you in
she shuts you down with her voice again
and now are you listening?
this song goes out to girls
that we haven't met just yet
this song is for stupid girls
who think that every boy is all about them
these girls are crazy
just listen to what i have to say about it
you've gotta watch out for the younger ones
they'll tightly wrap you around their fingers
and brag to all their friends
it's nothing but a game to them
they target you with their eyes
and move with their lips
and it pulls you in
she shuts you down with her voice again
and now are you listening?
this song goes out to girls
that we haven't met just yet
this song is for stupid girls
who think that every boy is all about them
you think you're on top of the world
when all the eyes are on you
just wait until your heart breaks
and you'll know how i felt when i wrote...

all about her

let me practice this before i say it to you
i know it might come out wrong but i want it to
another chance to fight
another way to make it right
so forget all of your chances
it's up to you to follow through
forget the way she was
cause it's the things she does that make me
sing about her
she knows i care about her
she said be gentle boy
you show a lack of character
let me work this out
before i come back to you
i know you sometimes hate the stupid things i do
another lonely night
another way to make it right
so forget all of your chances
it's up to you to follow through
forget the way she was
cause it's the things she does that make me
sing about her
she knows i care about her
she said be gentle boy
you show a lack of character
there is no other way
this girl is so all about me
i'm sorry i can't help the way
cause it's the things she does that make me
sing about her
she knows i care about her
she said be gentle boy
you show a lack of character

 
ballad for the lost romantics

i've grown sick
i've gotten older
i finally have an audience to ignore me
i can yell all i want
but you still can't hear me
i'm punching myself out
holding in my breath
i can take this lightly
throwing up the words that i said to you
i always do what i'm not supposed to
here's to us fools
that have no meaning
i tip my glass to you
let's toast the night away to friends
and forget about tomorrow
i might say things you don't want to hear
but someday you might care
and i won't be there
no i won't be there
here's to us fools
that have no meaning
i tip my glass to you
let's toast the night away to friends
and forget about tomorrow
i'm punching myself out
holding in my breath
i can yell all i want
throwing up the words that i said to you
i always do what i'm not supposed to
here's to us fools
that have no meaning
i tip my glass to you
let's toast the night away to friends
and forget about tomorrow
