It's lonely here in outerspace
The nearest stars are miles away But I believe I'm on to something big I've only come to not be found To circle high above the ground And watch everyone else for a change Don't you ever wish you'd never Don't you wonder if your face might shine Without the pies of lies I've arrived I'm doing well Quite a view from the top Though it is cold as hell I've arrived And it's hard to tell The bright lights from the starlights And the canyons from the hills To all the girls who wish to be Immortalized in fantasy I wrote this song for you and not for me I'm the senator of a lonely state Too far gone I've sealed my fate I'm so tired of being blown out with the cause Don't you ever wish you'd met her Don't you wonder if your face might shine Without the pies of lies I've arrived I'm doing well Quite a view from the top Though it is cold as hell I've arrived And it's hard to tell The bright lights from the starlights And the canyons from the hills I've arrived I'm doing well Quite a view from the top Though it is cold as hell I've arrived And it's hard to tell The bright lights from the starlights And the canyons from the hills I've arrived I'm doing well Quite a view from the top Though it is cold as hell time is mistory my past is a history now |

There was nothing down in my little town No one I could be Nobody there in the empty square Soon to include me So I borrowed myself a stolen van And I got myself to where I am I made my escape while no one wached And inside my head I had just one thought It was freedom that I wanted Freedom that I got Ready or not It's another world that I find in me in I think someone stole the van And the people here are like aliens And I don't know what I am And the pretty pretty girls I thought I could trust Have taken everything but my bad luck Now I'm not so bad and I'm not so hot I said I don't care but I cared a lot It was changes that I wanted Changes that I got Ready or not Now I'm not so radical as I thought I said I don't care but I cared a lot It was freedom that I wanted Freedom that I got Ready or not |

She rolls the window down
And she talks over the sound Of the cars that pass us by And I don't know why But she's changed my mind Would you look at her she looks at me She's got me thinking about her constantly But she don't know how I feel And as she carries on without a doubt I wonder if she's figured out I'm crazy for this girl Yeah, I'm crazy for this girl She was the one to hold me The night, the sky fell down And what was I thinking when The world didn't end Why didn't I know what I know now Would you look at her She looks at me She's got me thinking about her constantly But she don't know how I feel And as she carries on without a doubt I wonder if she's figured out I'm crazy for this girl Yeah, I'm crazy for this girl Right now Face to face All my fears Pushed aside And right now I'm ready to spend the rest of my life With you Would you look at her She looks at me She's got me thinking about her constantly But she don't know how I feel And as she carries on without a doubt I wonder if she's figured out I'm crazy for this girl Would you look at her She looks at me She's got me thinking about her constantly But she don't know how I feel carries on without a doubt I wonder if she's figured out I'm crazy for this girl |

Last night I heard the sweetest words
But if I wasn't' drinking I might have remembered more of what she said There were sounds of promise And shades of grace I've been down and I've been waiting Here she comes here she comes Now another day has found me And if I wasn't so stupid I'd have ushered in the morning holding her tight With sounds of promise And shades of grace I've been down and I've been waiting Here she comes here she comes I'm done hanging on maybe Tonight I'll say the sweetest words But if I'm not dreaming I might not remember To say just what I mean With sounds of promise And shades of grace I'm done hanging on maybe I don't wanna go, she don't wanna go, We don't need to go this time is ours tonight |

Do you remember?
Do you remember? Do you remember? How you were gonna stay free But they had plans for you And things to do The same thing goes for me Well well I never Saw it coming to me But when I turned around To look at you It was all that I could do To see the distance Everybody wants to run And I'm no different Feeling like the only one In the beginning Everything was so close And it seemed that everywhere you go Everybody knows You don't remember What you wanted to be Well they went round the class And you were last The clock was fast So no one asked To see the distance Everybody wants to run And I'm no different Feeling like the only one Well how long can you run? How far and what for? How far will you run To get whatever you're after Year after year after year Well I've been looking But I still can't see How we get from a to b to c And feel like we should be Well I've been running But I've been running around Now there's nothing left for me to do But sit around and see the view And see the distance Everybody wants to run And I'm no different Feeling like the only one Do you remember? Do you remember? Do you remember? |

Now I've found a little time
to take a look back from the caboose and follow the tracks of my life. They're tangled about lying true. And I know it's just me, my point of view, but those are the important two, and I don't need to check with the crowd. Wouldn't it be nice to be proud? The door was open and into the night. I jumped through and turned on the light. I started to see though it wasn't that bright I saw island sky but it wasn't all blue. My aces weren't right but I didn't want to lose, so I put up a fight and screamed out loud. Wouldn't it be nice to be proud? And when it all is clear, the time to repair disappears takin' with it chances left untried. See my friends huddled together, tryin' to stay warm in nasty weather. We'd beat the odds, whenever they'd call. And all the jokes that I played on friends never did get me in the end. I guess I was given more than allowed. Wouldn't it be nice to be proud? And when it all is clear the time to repair disappears takin' with it chances left untried. |

Sorry to call you in the middle of the night
but my thoughts have kept me thinking about some things in my life I got your number from a friend who told me that it'd be all right to call you if I ever need Someone to show me things in a different light and let me choose what's wrong and what's right Please pick up the phone I need to talk, I know you're at home If you're screening your calls I know you're busy and I won't keep you long If you know everything that happens to me Why do I have to ask you for things that I need what about people who don't even call 'cause they don't have the number, do you help them at all? will you show me things in a different light and let me choose what's wrong and what's right Please pick up the phone I need to talk, I know you're at home If you're screening your calls I know you're busy and I won't keep you long Well, I've moved away and I'm out on my own Do you ever get lonely living alone? Can we just talk about it won't you pick up the phone Every night I sit and stare at the wall in front of my face imagining you're there talking back to me so that everyone can see that I'm not so crazy after all Well, I've moved away and I'm out on my own Do you ever get lonely living alone? Well, I've moved away and I'm out on my own Do you ever get lonely living alone? Can we just talk about it won't you pick up the phone |

Once again I just can't get it straight
Wondering if wandering is my fate But don't lose hope in me quite yet 'cause help must be on the way, any day From my head to my heart can't seem to find a way they're so far apart It's not you, it's not your fault You've got everything I could ever want And you've always understood my intentions are good and we've been so close from the start but the furthest distance I've ever known is From my head to my heart I feel the distance standing here next to you I don't want to keep you waiting, but I've been waiting too Some day if I get there and you still want me too we can see it through From my head to my heart can't seem to find a way they're so far apart It's not you, it's not your fault You've got everything I could ever want And you've always understood my intentions are good and we've been so close from the start but the furthest distance I've ever known is From my head to my heart Furthest distance I've ever known is From my head to my heart My head to my heart From my head to my heart can't seem to find a way they're so far apart it's not you, you've got everything I could ever want From my head to my heart can't seem to find a way they're so far apart It's not you, it's not your fault You've got everything I could ever want And you've always understood my intentions are good and we've been so close from the start but the furthest distance I've ever known is From my head to my heart Furthest distance I've ever known is From my head to my heart Furthest distance I've ever known is From my head to my heart Furthest distance I've ever known is From my head to my heart Furthest distance I've ever known is From my head to my heart |

You ought to know by now that I don't wait around
Drag my heels hold my breath and hang out underground You think I think too much, I think we'll wait and see From here to there I'll take a piece of all that's in between Never say never and don't wait forever It's an open mind that sees that now is the time To take a chance, take a shot, take control of the situation I can't stand around here telling you About the things I've done and what I got to do So are you on the bus or not, Cause we're leaving the station Don't leave yourself behind and don't get in the way Tomorrow's coming fast to take away today You say I want too much, but I want you to see That if you want to come with me, you're going to have to leave Never say never and don't wait forever It's an open mind that sees that now is the time To take a chance, take a shot, take control of the situation I can't stand around here telling you About the things I've done and what I got to do So are you on the bus or not, Cause we're leaving the station So are you on the bus or not, Cause we're leaving the station You think I think too much, I think we'll wait and see From here to there I'll take a piece of all that's in between Never say never and don't wait forever It's an open mind that sees that now is the time To take a chance, take a shot, take control of the situation I can't stand around here telling you About the things I've done and what I got to do So are you on the bus or not, Cause we're leaving the station |

I run these stories through my head
of her coming home and us just staring at each other and we'll both know yeah we'll both know and I won't care that she took me through a maze And left me there for days Until she made her mind to go away You'd think I'd know by now You'd think I'd wash this down Did you think I'd hurt her now Just to heal my heart Then you don't know me You don't know me And she don't owe me anything I'd love to think that she Was out to hurt me And given the facts Still maybe we We could you know, we could try again But she didn't mean the harm she put me through And I could never go to her and trust That she would ever care If time is all it takes than I've got plenty of that Plenty of that, and I'm a better man For all the time it takes |

I don't know what's happening to me
I can't remember things I used to believe I caught myself just the other day stealing color from words and leaving them gray I've fallen down a time or two but no one was looking so I'm not telling you I've got to make it better, make it all right got to find me a ladder to reach the light I've got to move to the exit, single file line before the fire spreads to my head and burns my mind It's been real but it's time to go home time to change back to the clothes that I own I could use some heavier shoes to ground me in feelings I don't want to lose I've fallen down a time or two but no one was looking so I'm not telling you I've got to make it better, make it all right got to find me a ladder to reach the light I've got move to the exit, single file line before the fire spreads to my head and burns my mind And all this time, I never knew that it ever meant anything to you I've got to make it better, make it all right got to find me a ladder to reach the light I've got to move to the exit, single file line before the fire spreads to my head and burns my mind I've got to make it better, make it all right got to find me a ladder to reach the light I've got to move to the exit, single file line before the fire spreads to my head and burns my mind Make it better, make it all right I've got to make it better, make it all right |

Nobody could hurt me like I know she could hurt me
but there's nothing in this world that I want more Nobody could take me to the places that she takes me Places that I've never been before With my eyes wide open knowing full well I could fall from heaven I could fall from heaven I could fall I could brake that's the chance that I take I could fall Look at me I'm flying, just a breath away from dying Holding on to her and letting go As I walk across this wire above a lake of fire And lean into the wind that starts to blow With my eyes wide open knowing full well I could fall from heaven I could fall I could brake that's the chance that I take I could fall Do I hide my heart? Do I lock my door? Do I tear it out so it don't feel no more? No, I risk it all knowing that I could fall from heaven I could fall from heaven I could fall Fall, fall |
