IS THIS IT
Can't you see I'm trying I don't even like it. I just lied to Get to your apartment, now I'm staying Here just for a while. I can't think 'cause I'm just way too tired.
Is this it Is this it Is this it
Said they'd give you anything you ever wanted When they lied, I knew it was just stable children Trying hard not to realize I was sitting right behind them
Oh dear can't you see? It's them it's not me We're not enemies; we just disagree If I was like them, all pissed in this bar He changes his mind, says I went too far We all disagree I think we should disagree, yeah.

THE MODERN AGE
Up on a hill, that's where we begin This little story, a long time ago. Start to pretend, stop pretending It seems this game is simply never-ending Oh, in the sun, sun having fun It's in my blood. I just can't help it, Don't want you here right now, Let me go Let me a go-go-go-go-go-go-go-go.
Leavin' just in time Stay there for a while Rolling in the ocean Trying to catch her eye Work hard and say it's easy Do it just to please me Tomorrow will be different So I'll pretend I'm leaving
Our fears are different here We train in A-V-A I wish you hadn't stayed My vision's clearer now, but I'm unafraid. Flying overseas, no time to feel the breeze I took too many varieties Oh, in the sun, sun having fun It's in my blood I just can't help it Don't want you here right now Let me go Darlin', let me go.
Leavin' just in time Stay there for a while Rolling in the ocean Trying to catch her eye Work hard and say it's easy Do it just to please me Tomorrow will be different This is why I'm leaving |

BARELY LEGAL
I didn't take no shortcuts I spent the money that I saved up Aw mama runnin' out of luck Well like my sister don't give a fuck I wanna steal your innocence To me my life it don't make sense These strange manners, I love you so Why won't you wear your new trenchcoat
I should of worked much harder I should have just not bothered I never show up on weekdays Something that you learned yesterday Drive you to work and you will be on time These little problems they're not yours they're mine Come on listen to what I say I got some secrets that'll make you stay
I just want to turn you down I just want to turn you around You ain't never had nothing I wanted But I want it all I just can't figure out Nothing
And all together it went well We made pretend we were best friends And then she said Oh you're a freak They ordered me to make mistakes Together again like the beginning It all works somehow in the end The things we did the things you hide For the record it's between you and I
I didn't take no shortcuts I spent the money that I saved up Aw mama runnin' out of luck Well like my sister don't give a fuck I wanna steal your innocence To me my life it just don't make any sense These strange manners, I love 'em so Why won't you wear your new trenchcoat
I just want to misbehave I just want to be your slave You ain't ever had nothing I wanted But I want it all I just can't figure out Nothing
And all together it went well We made pretend we were best friends And then she said Oh I can wait They ordered me to make mistakes Together again like the beginning It all works somehow in the end The things we did the things you hide For the record it's between you and I. |

SOMA
Soma is what they would take when Hard times opened their eyes Saw pain in a new way High stakes for a few names Racing against sun beams Losing against their dreams In your eyes
And I am stop and go In your eyes, see I am stop and go In your eyes Let's go
When I saw her for the first time Lips moved as her eyes closed Heard something in his voice "And I'll be there", he says Then he walks out Somehow He was trying Too hard to be like them
And I am stop and go In your eyes And I am stop Oh, darling, let me go
Tried it once and they liked it, Then tried to hide it Says, I've been doing this 25 years But I'm not listening no more. And these friends, they keep asking for more. But that's it. |
