Hang
From: Yourself or Someone Like You
she grabs her magazines
she packs her things and she goes
she leaves the pictures hanging on the wall, she burns all
her notes amd she knows, she�s been here too few years to feel this old
he smokes his cigarette, he stays outside �till it�s gone
if anybody ever had a heart, he wouldn�t be alone
he knows, she�s been here too few years, to be gone
and we always say, it would be good to go away, someday
but if there�s nothing there to make things change
if it�s the same for you I�ll just hang
the trouble understand, is she got reasons he don�t
funny how he couldn�t see at all, �til she grabbed up her coat
and she goes, she�s been here too few years to take it all in stride
but still it�s much too long, to let hurt go (you let her go)
and we always say, it would be good to go away, someday
but if there�s nothing there to make things change
if it�s the same for you I�ll just hang
the same for you
I�ll always hang
well I always say, it would be good to go away
but if things don�t work out like we think
and there�s nothing there to ease this ache
but if there�s nothing there to make things change
if it�s the same for you, I�ll just hang
Shame
From: Yourself or Someone Like You
what we learned here is love tastes bitter when it�s gone
past yourself forget the light, things look dirty when it�s on
funny how it comes to pass, that all the good slips away
and there�s no one around you can remember being good to you
(chorus 1) shame, shouldn�t try you, couldn�t step by you
and open up more
shame, shame, shame
what we lost here is something better left alone
second steps have been forgotten, will you tell me how they go
set yourself, situate, like a fool try again
there�s no one around you can remember being good, for you so
(chorus 2) shame, shouldn�t try you, couldn�t step by you,
and open up more
shame, shame, shame shame,
shouldn�t try you, couldn�t step by you
and open up more
shame, shame, shame we never thought we�d get so troubled
we could never think that much
it should never get this bad
so let the wind blow ya, across a big floor
but there�s no one around who can tell us what we�re here for
funny in a certain light, how we all look the same
and there�s no one in life you can remember ever stood for you, so
Bent
From: Mad Season
If I fall along the way
pick me up and dust me off.
and if I get too tired to make it
be my breath so I can walk
If I need some other love
give me more than I can stand
and when my smile gets old and faded
wait around I'll smile again
shouldn't be so complicated
just hold me and then
just hold me again
can you help me I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
get put back together
you're breaking me in
and this is how we will end
with you and me bent
If I couldn't sleep could you sleep
could you paint me better off
could you sympathize with my needs
I know you think I need a lot
I started out clean but I'm jaded
just phoning it in
just breaking the skin
start bending me
It's never enough
I feel all your pieces
start bending me
Keep bending me until I'm completely broken in
shouldn't be so complicated
just touch me and then
just touch me again
Last Beautiful Girl
From: Mad Season
This will all fall down like everything else that was
This too shall pass and all of the words we said
We can't take back
Now every fool in town would've left by now
I can't replace all the wasted days
The memory of your face - can't help thinkin'
Maybe if we ever coulda kept it all together
Where would we be
A thousand lost forevers
And the promises you never were giving me
Here's what I'm thinking
(chorus)
It won't be the first - heart that you break
It won't be the last - beautiful girl
The one that you wrecked - won't take you back
If you were the last beautiful girl in the world
Tell me one more time
How you're sorry about the way
This all went down - you needed to find your space
You needed to still be friends
Needed me to
Call you if I ever couldn't keep it all together
you'd comfort me
Tell me but forever
And the promises I never should have believed in
Here's what I'm thinking
(chorus)
It won't be the first - heart that you break
It won't be the last - beautiful girl
The one that you wrecked - won't take you back
If you were the last beautiful girl in the world
It's over now - And I've gone without
Cuz you're everybody else's girl
It seems to me - you'll always be
Everyone else's girl
This will all fall down
Like everything in the world
This too must end
And everything else that was
We can't take back
Leave
From: More Than You Think You Are
It's amazing
how you make your face just like a wall
how you take your heart and turn it off
how I turn my head and lose it all
It's unnerving
how just one move puts me by myself
there you go just trusting someone else
now I know I put us both through hell
I'm not saying
there wasn't nothing wrong
I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me
I'm not saying
we ever had the right to hold on
I just didn't wanna let it get away from me
But if that's how it's gonna leave
straight out from underneath
then we'll see who's sorry now
If that's how it's gonna stand, when
you know you've been depending on
the one you're leaving now
the one you're leaving out
It's aggravating
how you threw me on
and you tore me out
how your good intentions turn to doubt
the way you needed time to sort it out
Tell me is that how it's going to end
when you know you've been depending on
the one you're leaving now
and the one you're leaving out
