We'll wait in line
For most our lives
Get out get in
Get on with it
We always hurt the ones we never really loved
We always think we're all alone we're always
Broke
We're always broke

The words we say take different shapes

We'll live and die with all the things we recognize
We'll count our sins
Stop now begin
We know the words are better left unspoken
When they'll be right in
To tear the heads off of us
Oh oh uh
Tear the heads off of us
Oh oh

The words we say
Take different shapes
And you can only do so much
To try to get your point across
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh <i>[continues through fades till end]</i>

I'll live and die with all the things i recognize
I'll count my sins
Stop now begin

My window pane was leaking glass
Cut my arm
Then you laughed
I jumped from just one story high
And now I'm stuck here till i die
Now I'm stuck here till i die
Now I'm stuck here till i die

Don't you remember me?
I swear i knew you when i knew
You were there we loved and learned under the sun
We had more fun than anyone
She's eight years old and moving out
She's half way cross the country now
She's smarter than the lot of us
She doesn't break or bend or fuss

Maybe she's in heaven now
Or maybe she's back here somehow
She's wearing all her finest clothes
And draped in jewelry head to toe
It is impossible to know
There is no ending to the show
No grand finale, big hurrah
One day we're here the next we're not

Oh look what I've done here
Ooh ooh look what I've done here
Let these thoughts creep in
Let em seep right in
Let these thoughts creep in
Let em seep right in

I hope she doesn't have to see
What became of her family
Her father left after she died
Her brothers cried and cried and cried

She took your man i took your name
The Miracle That Never Came
But oh, her life was beautiful
She'll live through me & live through you

I used to sing you lullabies
I'd hold you when you'd start to cry
I was your mother and your friend
Don't you remember me from then?
I was your mother and you friend
Don't you remember me from then?

So please be honest
What's it mean
Now what have you done
Cant it just be another risk you're running tonight
It's simple soaked and always on my mind
I'm dying

We got these lives to lead
Cut it out
Dont think about it
Cut it out
Dont think about it
Not now
We'll get through some how

This is only temporary
No this is only temporary
Not now
But soon
We'll be living in the future
And please be honest
Whats it mean
Now what have you done
Can't it just be another risk you're running
It's simple soaked and always on my mind
I'm dying

We've got these mouths to feed
Food and drink and hand shaked drugs
Food and drink and hand shaked drugs
And we've
We've got something up our sleeves
No ones gonna see it coming
No no ones gonna see it coming
Not now but soon
Well be living in the future

Please be honest
Whats it mean
Now what have you done
Cant it just be a another risk you're running
Whats it mean
Now what have you done
Cant it just be another risk you're running
It's simple soaked
And always on my mind
It's simple soaked
And always on my mind
Im dying

Here in this yellow room blocking the screaming
Sounds from the stage
There's silhouettes passing by in the doorway
I pay no mind
You're half dressed and star struck
Will they pull you out
Will they bring you back
We both know it's coming
You aren't the first
You won't be the last
So take it all off to them
Take it all off to them
I swear they'll like it
I'm listening what they say
Feeling less and less OK
But it's the same old story
How do i fix my head?
How do i fix my head
Living in a world
Where changing what you've got
Makes you better
Whys that plastic surgery
Just what you need then you'll be happy
Surrounded by mirrors and people who stare silently
Judging
Depending on make up
And being adored
Can't be self assured
I wish that i could make you see
How do i make you see
Without it all you're lovely
I'm listening what they say
Feeling less and less OK
But it's the same old story
How do i fix my head?
How do i fix my head?
How do i
How do i fix my head
How do i fix my head?

Some of us are born
And then some of us are born again
Some of us are scared to death
And some just don't believe in it
Something's always wrong
There's a line
An idea i cant get behind
No one knows whats right
Some try
Some just try to find a king
They say
Who will save us now
It's our life
But we don't want to live it
We want to be told how
By something or someone
Who's better than us
Who we know we can trust
Who will always protect us
Keep us scared to death
So we never ask questions
We'll dictate the consequences of our actions
And give us peace of mind about our miserable lives
Find it content all we want is a place we can hide
We can hide
Someone always fought
You can rest assured
It's the young and the poor who fought all out wars
Led to death by men who they chose
And hoped would protect them
Who will save us now
It's our life but we don't want to live it
And all you'll get is down
Cause the people you elect to protect your best interests
Will just protect themselves and all their investments
And even the few with the best of intentions
Will just push their views on what they think is right for you
And everyone else, you can't think for yourself
Cause you've chosen to let someone else do it for you
So we're left to drift between our waking life and all our dreams,
Reality is relative,
And that's all the advice I'll give.
And that's all the advice I'll give
Life and death are hard
They're such strange and complicated issues
So listen listen well
For insight
And no one knows what's right for you
Who will save us now
It's a wrong
And irrelevant question
We figure it out
With the people who love us
Who call us our brothers
Through lessons we've learned
From our fathers and mothers
Now looking for someone to find our solutions
To fight all our battles
Or show us what truth is
By working hard to find our own piece of mind
Living and learning till we know what's right for our lives our lives

Cover your eyes
And reach into your ears
Pull out what you've heard
And replace it with anything
Add to your body
Well take some weight
Cut it and fill it in
Whatever it takes
Aaaohh
To be some sort of beautiful
Phony and frightening
Some sort of beautiful
Phony and frightening
Oooo we must care for these little ones
We must keep them safe
From the horrible ideas
And the people who have them
They're too young
For wondering
Too young for wishing
To be something other than what they were meant to be
Tell them theyre beautiful
Perfectly placed
Tell them they're beautiful
Perfectly placed
Love and be loved
Take air into your lings
And turn into the most beautiful sound you can make
Oooahhh
Ooh ohhh oahhh
Cover your eyes
And reach into your ears
Pull out what you've heard and replace it with anything

And I've got you on my mind
Seems i almost always all the time
And its soft secure and fun
In the fading summer sunlight
And your hands on the wall
Off the edge of the bed say
All that needed to be said
Your body beneath me rising and sinking
We'll never leave again
We'll never leave again
This is all we are
And it's all we'll ever
We'll never leave again
We'll never leave again
This is all we are
And it's all we'll ever need
In love and death
We speak for weeks
So good its almost just too much
To believe
Its your sweet slow smile
Tells me
You always know exactly what it is i need
We'll be safe in our home
Hidden in here alone
And the photos will show
These moments were golden
We'll never leave again
We'll never leave again
This is all we are
And it's all we'll ever
We'll never leave again
We'll never leave again
This is all we are
And its all we'll ever need
Dahh doo dahh dooa dahh
Daah daah dah dah dah
Woahhhoah
Woa doo noo waa daah daah
La dah dah deah dah de

Take it to Manhattan cause i don't want it
Sell it to someone who cant live without it
You made it for the masses
It passed unnoticed
Death somewhere in Kansas
Now I've had it up to here
With I've had enough of all of these songs
Of self imposed unhappiness
Say it for myself like I always wanted
something to believe when you've always doubted
There was some logic
Some rhyme or reason that brought us to this place
But now I've had it up to here
With I've I've had enough of all these songs of self imposed unhappiness
Oh oh
Ah now ah now
I've had enough of all these songs of self imposed unhappiness
Songs of self imposed unhappiness
Songs of self imposed unhappiness
Songs of self imposed unhappiness <i>[continues through end]</i>
You've done this to yourself
You've done this to yourself
You've done
You've done

Doing like you said
Taking deep breaths
Keeping my cool
Counting to ten
On my own again
Trying to keep my head clear
Go for walks away from here
But i know
I am still alone still alone
Like the day i was born
Born in
Brought into this world
Still alone still alone
Like the day i was born
Born in
Brought into this world
Hold onto your friends
Thats what he said
I guess that his friends are not like mine
I could write a list of people i dont miss
Im sorry but im so much better off without you
Im still alone still alone
Like the day i was born born in brought into this world
Still alone still alone
Like the day i was born born in brought into this world
Hold it all against me still dont bother
Hold it all against me another complaint
High maitnence
Complain
Oh shut up
Bahh dee bahh doa
Oh shut up
Still alone still alone
Like the day i was born born in brought into this world <i>[x3]</i>

I'm gonna hide out all night
Close my curtains
Dim my lights
I'm gonna lay here alone
Close my eyes
And wish for home
The last time that i saw you
This is the end of
This is the end of
The last time that i saw you
This is the end of
This is the end
Your face is surrounding me
It's the only face i wanna see
For now we're safe on the ground
We've got these words
These songs these sounds
The last time that i saw you
This is the end of
This is the end of
The last time that i saw you
This is the end of
This is the end
Oooh ooh ohoh ohoooh ooh ooh oooh
Last time that i saw you
This is the end of
This is the end of
Last time that i saw you (i'm gonna hide out all night)
This is the end of (close my curtains, dim my lights)
This the end of
Last time that i saw you (im gonna lay here along close my eyes and wish for home)
Last time that i saw you
Oooh oooh oh ohhh ooh

What it was wasn't my fault
If i would have known
But who could have known
Cameras and the kids
Candids and the kindling (?)
We're fighting them off
They've done it again
What did her friends say
Who was involved
Oh call it all off
Cause i should have known but
Who could have known
Who could have known
The needles the space
Time cant erase
And buttoned down
You'll get the best of me
But throughout it all
The rise and the fall
Buttoned down
You'll get the best of me
On the way back to the bank
His heads sinking low
He should have known
How hard did it come
When was it that you
Lost your soul
What does it take
What did they make you
What do you know
Would you have done it again again again
Now we'll let you in but we should have known
We should have known
The needles the space
Time cant erase
And buttoned down
You'll get the best of me
But throughout it all
The rise and the fall
Buttoned down
You'll get the best of me
Now buttoned down
You'll get the best of me
Buttoned down
You'll get the best of me

You know
You can be
The first of
This century
To bleed through
To find truth
To know what
You should do
You know
It could be
Anything
Sometimes (sometimes)
You might find (you might find)
A crack or (a crack or)
A fault line (a fault line)
But dressed down (but dressed down)
Or made up (or made up)
You'll find (you'll find)
A real love (a real love)
A place to
Come home to
At night
So what did we pay for
And why did we care
What were we after
And why was it there
Desire gave way to a false sense of hope
And we fell for the lie that its what we all chose
And I yelled to my friends, "It'll all be OK!"
But they didn't believe me
They still don't today
They never do anything the haven't before
In the same
In the same solemn room with no lock on the door and over and over and over again
The same failed solutions to all the same problems
They scream "Why? Why? I can't understand
Why the things that I do never go as I've planned!"
And the vultures begin
Their slow circling
The dogs lick their teeth
Bright white and gleaming
But just hold your tongue
Barely begun to fight until now
Let's see what you've got
This wide open shot
Take it or leave it
Cause we're getting out
We're getting out alive
And you'll never
Find us again
You'll never find us again
