2000 Light Years Away 

I sit alone in my bedroom

Staring at the walls

I've been up all damn night long

My pulse is speeding

My love is yearning



I hole my breath and close my eyes and dream about her

Cause she's 2000 light years away

She holds my malakite so tight so...

Never let go

Cause she's 2000 light years away



I sit outside and watch the sunrise

Lookout as far as I can

I can't see her, but in the distance

I hear some laughter,

We laugh together



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One for the Razorbacks 

Juliet's trying to find out what she wants, but she don't know

Experience has got her down

Look this direction, I know it's not perfection, it's just me...

I want to bring you up again now



I'm losing what's left of my dignity

A small price to pay to see that you're happy

Forget all the disappointments you have faced

Open up your worried world and let me in



Juliet's crying cause now she's realizing love can be

Filled with pain and distrust

I know I am crazy, and a bit lazy

But I will try to bring you up again now.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to Paradise 

Pat attention to the cracked streets and the broken homes

Some call it slums some call it nice

I want to take you through a wasteland I like to call my home

Welcome to Paradise



A gunshot rings out at the station

Another urchin snaps and left dead on his own

It makes me wonder why I'm still here

For some strange reason it's still now feeling like my home

I'm never gonna go



Dear mother, can you hear me laughin'?

It's been six whole months since I have left your home

It makes me wonder why I'm still here

For some strange reason it's still now feeling like my home

I'm never gonna go



Dear mother, can you hear me whinin'?

It's been three whole weeks since I have left your home

This sudden fear has left me tremblin'

Cause now it seems I am out here on my own

And I'm feeling so alone



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Christie Road 

Staring out of my window

Watching the cars go rolling by

My friends are gone

I've got nothing to do

So I sit here patiently

Watching the clock tick so slowly

Gotta get away

Or my brains will explode



Give me something to do to kill some time

Take me to that place that I call home

Take away the strains of being lonely

Take me to the tracks at Christie Road



See the hills from afar

Standing on my beat up car

The sun went down and the night fills the sky

Now I feel like me once again

As the train comes rolling in

Smoked my boredom gone

Slapped my brains up so high



Mother stay out of my way of that place we go

We'll always seem to find our way to Christie Road



If there's one thing that I need that makes me feel complete

So I go to Christie Road

It's home...



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Private Ale 

I wonder down these streets all by myself

Think of my future now

I just don't know

I don't seem to care

I stop to notice that

I'm by your home

I wonder if you're sitting all alone

Or is your boyfriend there



Because I feel so right

Let my imagination go

Until you're in my sight

And through my veins temptation flows



So I sit down here on the hard concrete

Think of my future now

I just don't know

I don't seem to care

So I sit across the street from your home

I wonder if you're sitting all alone

Or is your boyfriend there



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dominated Love Slave 

I want to be your dominated love slave

I want to be the one that takes the pain

You can spank me when I do not behave

Mack me in the forehead with a chain



Cause I love feelin' dirty

And I love feelin' cheap

And I love it when you hurt me

So drive those staples deep



I want you to slap me and call me naughty

Put a beltsander against my skin

I want to feel pain all over my body

Can't wait to be punished for my sins.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of My Lies 

When I was younger I thought the world circled around me

But in time I realized I was wrong

My immortal thoughts turned into just dreams of a dead future

It was a tragic case of my reality



Do you think you're indestructable

And no one can touch you

Well I think you're disposeable

And it's time you knew the truth

Cause it's just one of my lies!



Why does my life have to be so small?

Yet death is forever

And does forever have a life to call its own?



Don't give me an answer cause you

Only know as much as I know

Unless you're been there once

Well I hardly think so



I used to pray all night

Before I lay myself down

My mother said it was right

Her mother said it too...

Why?



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
80 

My mental stability reaches its bitter end

And all my senses are coming unglued

Is there any cure for this disease someone called love

Not as long as there are girls like you



Everything she does questions my mental health

It makes me lose control

I just can't trust myself



If someone can hear me slap some sense into me

But you turn your head and I end up talking to myself

Anxiety has got me strung out and frustrated

So I loose my head or I bang it up against the wall



Sometimes I wonder if I should be left alone

And lock myself up in a padded room

I'd sit and spew my guts out to the open air

No one wants to hear a drunken fool.



I do not mind if this goes on

Cause now it seems I'm too far gone

I must admit I enjoy myself

80 please keep taking me away.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Android 

Hey old man in woman's shoes

I wonder if he knows I think he's crazy

When he was young did her have dreams

Of wearing woman's shoes and being crazy?



It makes me wonder when I grow to be that age

Will I be walking down the street begging for your spare change



Or will I grow that old?

Will I still be around?

The way I carry on I'll end up

Six feet underground

And waste away...



When the old man was in school

Did the golden rule make him go crazy

Or did he hide away from hopes

Behind a smile and smoking dope

It's crazy



It seems so frightening

Time passes by like lightning

Before you know it you're struck down

I always waste my time on my chemical emotions

It keeps my head spinning around.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No One Knows 

Why should my fun have to end?

For me it's only the beginning

I see my friends begin to age

A short countdown to what end



Call me irresponsible

Call me habitual

But when you think of me

Do you fill your head with schemes

Better think again

Cause no one knows



I don't want to cause no harm

But sometimes my actions hurt

Is there something I should find

To make plans for forever



Does it seem like all your memories fade

You soak up knowledge to fill the space

And still my answer remains...

I don't know.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who Wrote Holden Caulfield? 

A thought burst in my head and I need to tell you

It's news that I for thought

Was it a dream that happened long ago?

I think that I just forgot

Well it hasn't been the first time

And it sure does drive me mad



There's a boy who fogs his world and now he's getting lazy

There's no motivation and frustration makes him crazy

He makes a plan to take a stand but always ends up sitting.

Someone help him up or he's gonna end up quitting



I shuffle through my mind

To see if I can find

The words I left behind

Was it just a dream that happened long ago?

Oh well...

Never mind.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Words I Might Have Ate 

Now it seems I can't keep my mind of you

My brain drifts back to better days we've been through

Like sitting on blacktop of the school grounds

The love I bitched about I finally found



But now it's gone and I take the blame

So there's nothing I can do but take the pain

Why?



Now I dwell on what you remind me of

A sweet young girl who sacrificed her love

As for me... I am blind without a cause

And now I reazlied what I have lost



It was something real that I could have had

Now I play the fool whose stable soul's gone bad

Why?



Tell me the words I might have said

That's pumping pressure deep inside my head

Was it bad enough to be too late?

Just tell me the words I might have ate.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sweet Children 

See a young girl so soft and blonde.

Doesn't attack me but she did once. 

Intoxications in her veins.

Sweet young boy plays with her brain.

Lydia'll bring to life.

What are your chance not to oblige.

Putting his hand on her thigh.

Ability has now been ripped. 

Take it away, I'd rather sit.

Sweet children, sweet children, sweet children.  Remember when.

Johnny's playing fun and games, or else he's ?in the storage shed?.

Running from the light of day, or maybe lie and celebrate.

The funny circus from his head.

Follow me if you understand.

I'll trick her so she'll do it.

Then I'll sing and now we run.

Sweet children, sweet children, sweet children. Remember when.

Sweet children, sweet children, sweet children. Remember when.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Best Thing in Town 

Come with me and let's go for a ride

Follow me to the other side

As I sit around and watch you pout



Cause I know that you're the

Best thing in town -- Best thing around

Best thing in town -- Best thing around



Running wild and always running free

Doing things that I have never seen

Eerie colors and all I see are sounds



Now I know that you're the

Best thing in town -- Best thing around

Best thing in town -- Best thing around





Come with me and let's go for a ride

Follow me to the other side

As I sit around and watch you pout



Cause I know that you're the

Best thing in town -- Best thing around

Best thing in town -- Best thing around



Running wild and always running free

Doing things that I have never seen

Eerie colors and all I see are sounds



Now I know that you're the

Best thing in town -- Best thing around

Best thing in town -- Best thing around



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strangeland 

Looking at the clouds in the sky

floating image in my mind

?

Now I wonder where this place is from



Evidence is everywhere

I start to run, now I'm scared

?

Strange beings all around.

Everyone come to this place I've found



I'm feeling phyced

walking?wonder why

All my joys are open

No more crimes



My eyes are clear and now I'm cured

I only wanna be for sure

?

?



Get in my mind and you will find

Mother love from all mankind

?

?



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My Generation 

Well, people try to put us down.

Talkin' bout my generation.

Just because we get around.

Talkin' bout my generation.

The things they do look awful cold.

Talkin' bout my generation.

I hope I die before I get old.

Talkin' bout my generation.



My generation.



Why don't you all just fade away?

Talkin' bout my generation.

And don't try to dig what we all say.

Talkin' bout my generation.

I'm not trying to cause a big sensation.

Talkin' bout my generation.

I'm just talkin' bout my generation.

Talkin' bout my generation.



My generation.



(guitar solos)

Break it, fuck that shit!

(don't think Pete Townsend wrote that part)



Why don't you all just fade away?

Talkin' bout my generation.

And don't try to dig what we all say.

Talkin' bout my generation.

I'm not trying to cause a big sensation.

Talkin' bout my generation.

I'm just talkin' bout my generation.

Talkin' bout my generation.



My generation.

Talkin' bout my generation.



This is my generation.

This is my generation, baby.
