Standing on the edge of morning,
scent of sex and New Found Glory playing as she's pulling back her hair. She drives away, she's feeling worthless; used again, but nothing's different. She'd stay the night but knows he doesn't care. At home by three; a deafening quiet. The porch light's off, guess they forgot it. She'd cry herself to sleep but she don't dare. And she wants to be a model, She wants to hear she's beautiful. She's beautiful. I want to save you, I want to save you. (Yeah) I need you to save me too. I want to save you. Dressed by dawn and out the door, no lights, she memorized the floors so she could leave without being detected. She works till three; it's uniform, she dreams that he'll come by the store. She prays for days when boys mean she's protected. And she wants someone to see her, She needs to hear she's beautiful. She's beautiful. I want to save you I want to save you. (Yeah) I need you to save me too. I want to save you. And she won't sleep. (and she won't sleep) She won't sleep, and she won't sleep at all. I want to save you I want to save you. (Yeah) I need you to save me too. I want to save you (Let me save you) I want to save you (Let me save you) I want to save you (Let me save you) I want to save you (Let me save you) I want to save you |

Punk Rock Princess
by Something Corporate Maybe when the room is empty Maybe when the bottle's full Maybe when the door gets broke down Love can break in Maybe when I'm done with thinking Maybe you can think me whole Maybe when I'm done with endings This can begin If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your garage band king You could tell me why you just don't fit in And how you're gonna be something Maybe when your hair gets darker Maybe when your eyes get wide Maybe when the walls are smaller There will be no more space Maybe when I'm not so tired Maybe you could step inside Maybe when I look for things That I can't replace If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your garage band king You could tell me why you just don't fit in And how you're gonna be something If I could be your first real heartache I would do it over again If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your heroine I never thought you'd last I never dreamed you would You watch your life go past You wonder if you should If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your garage band king You could tell me why you just don't fit in And how you're gonna be something If I could be your first real heartache I would do it over again If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your heroine If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your garage band king You could tell me why you just don't fit in And how you're gonna be something |

I have a story, a bitter anthem for everyone to hear,
about this kid who just don't like me and that's a solid fact. They say he's hunting me and as you see I'm all swelled up with fear cuz I can't get him off my back. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. You tried to fight me down at Tyler's beach and man I think that's great. You nearly cried and said to yell at you like I do at all the girls. Then you drove home real quick, did you make it in time to masturbate? There's one too many of you in this world. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. You say its chivalry, well its jealousy that led us to this song. Won't play it often just at least until you're gone. You'll stop at nothing but the real thing and everything up to that's pretend. You tried to brainwash all my friends. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. Fuck you Jordan, fuck you Jordan, You make me sick, you make me sick High school's over, high school's over I don't care if you dye your hair, You'll always be a little redhead bitch |

I've been sleeping with ghosts
I've been watching stars crawling out of the sky I've been hoping I'm close To the spaceman movies I call my life And I've been climbing ladders through time I've got tunnel vision but I'm doing fine And I've been watching stars coming off of the wall And maybe if I'm lucky I could catch them before you fall And you are not alone Chorus: Calling out to the astronaut I need some of what you've got I need to be high Crawling out of a world she bought Calling out to the astronaut I need to be high I've been holding this microphone And I've been channeling but I think we're alone I've got platinum vision and a tin foil touch I've got you to propel me But I still need so much Not to be alone Chorus And you are not alone x3 Chorus Calling out to the astronaut I need some of what you've got I need to be high I disappear in a world she bought Calling out to the astronaut I need to be high And I've got you to propel me But I still need so much |

Shake down you make me break
For goodness sake I think I'm on the edge Of something new with you Shout out don't drown the sound I'll drown you out You'll never scream so loud As I want to scream with you Standing there with your smile blinding Your eyes from seeing My face as I'm dying To figure out a girl But she drifts so far away I'm on her coast So maybe I should stay And map around your world So Don't Say These currents are still killing me And you can't explain But the wind went and pulled me Into your hurricane Into your hurricane Stand up don't make a sound Your ears might bleed There's sweet fluorescent enemies That live inside of me The world moves faster than I knew Not fast enough to not creep up on you And the space we put between So pull me under your weather patterns Your cold fronts and the rain don't matter Because the sun burns when I need it So Don't Say These currents are still killing me And you can't explain But the wind went and pulled you Into the hurricane into the hurricane You don't do it on purpose But you make me shake Now I count the hours 'til you wake With your babies breath Breathe symphonies Come on sweet catastrophe Well, Maybe this time I can follow through i can feel complete Stop paying dues Stop the rain from falling Keep my ocean calm This time I know nothings wrong So Don't Say These currents are still killing me And you can't explain But the wind went and pulled me in and no you don't say These currents are still killing me And you can't explain but the wind went and pulled me into your hurricane into your hurricane into your hurricane |

At Cavanaugh Park
Where I used to sit all alone in the dark And dream about things that I cannot say you always said destiny'd blow me away and nothing's gonna blow me away At Cavanaugh Park Where you used to take me to play in the sand And said to me, ""Son, one day you'll be a man And men can do terrible things."" Yes they can And there was never any place For someone like me to be totally happy I'm runnin' out of clock and that ain't a shock Some things never do change Never do change At Cavanaugh Park We used to get high Watching teams as they fought They loved my friend Adam But he always got caught Man, that kid made fucking up look cool Aren't we all so cool now? no And there was never any place For someone like me to be totally happy I'm runnin' out of clock and that ain't a shock Some things never do change Never do change Never do change Never do change Never do change At Cavanaugh Park Where I used to think that my life would be good And I would do things that I thought that I should And no one's gonna tear me down And there was never any place For someone like me to be totally happy I'm runnin' out of clock and that ain't a shock Some things never do change And there was never any place For someone like me to be totally happy I'm runnin' out of clock and that ain't a shock Some things never do change Never do change Never do change Never do change |

Lullaby's fill your room, and I will be singing Singing to only you Don't forget I'll hold your head Watch the night sky fading red But as you sleep, and no one is listening I will lift you off your feet, I'll keep you from sinking Don't you wake up yet, cause soon I'll be leaving you Soon I'll be leaving you, but you won't be leaving me In the car, the radio leaves me searching for your star A constellation of frustration driving home Singing my thoughts back to me, and watching heartache on TV But as you sleep, and no one is listening I will lift you off your feet, I'll keep you from sinking Don't you wake up yet, cause soon I'll be leaving you Soon I'll be leaving you But you won't be leaving me Don't forget I'll hold your head, watch the night sky fading red But as you sleep, and no one is listening I will lift you off your feet, I'll keep you from sinking Don't you wake up yet, cause soon I'll be leaving you Soon I'll be leaving you, but you won't be leaving me Don't forget I'll hold your head, watch the night sky fading red But as you sleep, and no one is listening I will lift you off your feet, I'll keep you from sinking Don't you wake up yet, cause soon I'll be leaving you Soon I'll be leaving you, but you won't be leaving me |

It's a good year for a murder
She's praying to Jesus, she's pulling the trigger There's no tears, cause he's not here She washes her hands and she fixes the dinner, But soon they'll be coming to rush her away And no ones so sure if her crime had a reason The reasons like seasons They constantly change, And the seasons of last year Like reasons have floated away Away with this spilled milk Away with this dirty dish water, away Seventeen years and all that he gave was a daughter ""It's me and the moon,"" she says ""And I've got no trouble with that, but I am a butterfly, but you wouldn't let me die"" ""It's me and the moon,"" she says And it's over, but just started The blood stained the carpet Her heart like a crystal She's lucid and departed A life left behind, she can find in her mind gone away Away with these nightmares Away with suburbia Shake down away You marry a role and You give up your soul til you break down ""It's me and the moon,"" she says ""And I've got no trouble with that, But I am a butterfly, but you wouldn't let me die"" ""It's me and the moon,"" she says But what do you say we go for a ride? What do you say we get high? But I'm so tired of days that feel like the night ""It's me and the moon,"" she says ""And I've got no trouble with that, And I am a butterfly, but you wouldn't let me die I am a butterfly, but you wouldn't let me die I am a butterfly, I am a butterfly, I am a butterfly"" |

Waiting on my floor Littering my shore This is the last true burning letter Given to a girl Written by a boy Living in a world created to destroy But if I built you a city, would you let me? Would you tear it down? But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then And I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, well at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me And this is your ghost that kneels before me Razors on her tongue, a body full of oxygen It wont be the last time she'll ignore me The thinning of my skin, without the strength to go The winter's setting in, to cover you in snow But if I built you a city, would you let me? Would you tear it down? But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then And I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, well at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me Forget me Forget me Forget me, yeah And Il'l raise towers and Climb them Rivers and walk them Oceans to drown in You won't make a sound in But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then And I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, well at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me |

Tonight I watched the lights go out in your house
wondering how I could get so deep, and you could still get sleep. In vain I blame my trembling on the cold air, but I can't hide that i relied on you, like yellow does on blue. And you're my good feeling. I'm kneeling. Inside a room she paints me blue. And you are my reason for breathing. Inside a room she paints me blue again. Atlanta started raining on me, and teenage love was underground. Tonight I'll break the surface. Atlanta started raining on me, but no young girl was claiming me, or naming me. And destiny gets nervous. And you're my good feeling. I'm kneeling. Inside a room she paints me blue. And you are my reason for breathing. Inside a room she paints me blue again. Atlanta started raining on me, on me. Atlanta started raining on me, on me... |

No And you're in pieces As your world becomes a rainstorm You've got no shelter I'm a thousand miles away You'll survive the day You say your leaving You say your leaving Well, I'm willing to break myself To shake this hell from everything I touch I'm willing to bleed for days more reds and grays So you don't hurt so much So you don't hurt so much Never again will the fire be done No never again your the only one No never again but you're already gone. I'm willing to break myself I'm not afraid I'm willing to break myself I'm not afraid I'm willing to break myself I'm not afraid Well, I'm willing to break myself To shake this hell from everything I touch I'm willing to bleed for days more reds and grays So you don't hurt so much So much So much So much |

I'd fly you a flag, I'd bury this pen into my veins I wanna feel through you tonight But I won't make you I won't make you The telephone number I got for you says nobody's home The best thing I can think to do right now is leave it alone And you had an apology in your mailbox since last July It's funny when you find the words to say you find no reply I wanna feel through you tonight But I won't make you I won't make you Scream my name just one more time But I won't make you I won't make you And it's been hours now To be here like this And just to lay you down And just to taste your lips And just to keep me up God I'm tired of sleeping And just to lay inside you And just to know this feeling I wanna feel through you tonight But I won't make you I won't make you Scream my name just one more time But I won't make you I won't make you |

When does this twisting end? I will write this down for you So you can read it I will hold my breath for you Til' I can't feel it You don't have to see me this way 'Cause this way I'm okay I will write this down for you So you could read it |

I have a story, a bitter anthem for everyone to hear,
about this kid who just don't like me and that's a solid fact. They say he's hunting me and as you see I'm all swelled up with fear cuz I can't get him off my back. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. You tried to fight me down at Tyler's beach and man I think that's great. You nearly cried and said to yell at you like I do at all the girls. Then you drove home real quick, did you make it in time to masturbate? There's one too many of you in this world. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. You say its chivalry, well its jealousy that led us to this song. Won't play it often just at least until you're gone. You'll stop at nothing but the real thing and everything up to that's pretend. You tried to brainwash all my friends. If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan, He makes me sick, he makes me sick High school's over, high school's over and you still won't quit. Fuck you Jordan, fuck you Jordan, You make me sick, you make me sick High school's over, high school's over I don't care if you dye your hair, You'll always be a little redhead bitch |

Punk Rock Princess
by Something Corporate Maybe when the room is empty Maybe when the bottle's full Maybe when the door gets broke down Love can break in Maybe when I'm done with thinking Maybe you can think me whole Maybe when I'm done with endings This can begin If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your garage band king You could tell me why you just don't fit in And how you're gonna be something Maybe when your hair gets darker Maybe when your eyes get wide Maybe when the walls are smaller There will be no more space Maybe when I'm not so tired Maybe you could step inside Maybe when I look for things That I can't replace If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your garage band king You could tell me why you just don't fit in And how you're gonna be something If I could be your first real heartache I would do it over again If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your heroine I never thought you'd last I never dreamed you would You watch your life go past You wonder if you should If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your garage band king You could tell me why you just don't fit in And how you're gonna be something If I could be your first real heartache I would do it over again If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your heroine If you could be my punk rock princess I could be your garage band king You could tell me why you just don't fit in And how you're gonna be something |

Climbing out of the sky a man who could fly
And a painting anyone could play It's a comic book crush that taught you to trust Staring out of the stands at a rock n' roll band And a hero no one else could save It was never much but it's all that you gave And I wonder if you wonder, or did your stars finally explode? Did the thunder pull you underneath the haze? I'm amazed, than I let go Little minds let little games burn big old dreams with little flames And you don't think I understand Little holes in parachutes won't leave you falling If they do, it's because you want to land Climbing out of his chair to fix the T.V. glare is a man But no one knows he's there It's a Dramamine dream that kept them alive but lost She's got her plastic friends and a brand new Benz and she laughs Hell, sometimes life ain't fair It's a comic book crush that got them nowhere And I wonder if you wonder, or did your stars finally explode? Did the thunder pull you underneath the haze? I'm amazed, than I let go Little minds let little games burn big old dreams with little flames And you don't think I understand Little holes in parachutes won't leave you falling If they do, it's because you want to land These elevator doors are closing again you leave before I planned I taste you walking down the hall You left your perfume on the nightstand |

Your grand dad left home for the circus. He was young just like me,
with hope to explore. He married a girl in Virginia. She could swing the trapeze; they could sleep on the floor. Your mother was born in December, on the one sunny day that winter gave up. She had warm summer eyes that flickered like fireflies, when she stared at the world. So why do you leave these stories unfinished, my Cheshire cat doorstop with tears in your eyes? Why do you look when you've already found it? What did you find that could leave you walking by? She was raised in a New England village. Then she moved to LA with her firefly stare, and you loved sunset strip when it sparkled, you grew up and you sparkled but why don't you care? So why do you leave these stories unfinished, my Cheshire cat doorstop with tears in your eyes? Why do you look when you've already found me? What did you find that could leave you walking by? And these nights I get high just from breathing. When I lie here with you I'm sure that I'm real, like that firework over the freeway. I could stay here all day but that's not how you feel. So why do you leave these questions unanswered? The circus awaits and you're already gone. My Cheshire cat doorstop with fear in your smile, what makes it so easy for you to be walking by? And what did I do that you can't seem to want me? Why do we lie here and whisper goodbyes? Where can I go that your pictures won't haunt me? What makes it so easy for you to be walking by? |

Waiting on my floor Littering my shore This is the last true burning letter Given to a girl Written by a boy Living in a world created to destroy But if I built you a city, would you let me Would you tear it down? But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then That I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, but at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me This is the ghost that kneels before me Raises on her tongue, a body full of oxygen It won't be the last time she'll ignore me The thinning of my skin, without the strength to go The winter's setting in, to cover you in snow But if I built you a city, would you let me Would you tear it down? But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then That I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, but at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me Forget me Forget me Forget me, yeah I'll raise towers and climb them Rivers and walk them Oceans to drown in You won't make a sound in But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then That I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, but at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me |

if you ran to the end of the earth i would catch you and you would be safe if you fell down a well i would bring you a rope and take all of your pain all the pain, all the pain that you hide from me everyday if youre missing i will run away i will build a path to you if you're missing i will run away just to find myself in you if i woke up alone i won't stop till i'll find you and you are with me cause by now, i know you better than you know yourself and i know what you really need what you need, or i need but either way this is where you should be here with me, or ill bleed so much that you wont believe if you're missing i will run away i will build a path to you if you're missing i will run away just to find myself in you you better not, you better not run you better not, you better not run if you're missing i will run away i will build a path to you if you're missing i will run away i will find you i will find you i will find you |

This is the only lonely picture
Waiting on my floor Littering my shore This is the last true burning letter Given to a girl Written by a boy Living in a world created to destroy But if I built you a city, would you let me Would you tear it down? But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then That I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, but at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me This is the ghost that kneels before me Raises on her tongue, a body full of oxygen It won't be the last time she'll ignore me The thinning of my skin, without the strength to go The winter's setting in, to cover you in snow But if I built you a city, would you let me Would you tear it down? But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then That I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, but at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me Forget me Forget me Forget me, yeah I'll raise towers and climb them Rivers and walk them Oceans to drown in You won't make a sound in But there you go for the last time I finally know now what I should have known then That I could still be ruthless if you'll let me But there you go and I'm not done You're waving goodbye, but at least you're having fun The rising tide will not let you forget me Forget me |

Tonight I watched the lights go out in your house
Wondering how I could get so deep And you could still get sleep In vain I blame my trembling on the cold air But I can't hide that I've relied on you Like yellow does on blue And you're my Good feeling I'm kneeling Inside a room she paints me blue And you are My reason For breathing Inside a room she paints me blue, again Atlanta started raining on me And teenage love was underground Tonight I'll break the surface Atlanta started raining on me And no young girl was claiming me Or naming me and destiny gets nervous And you're my Good feeling I'm kneeling Inside a room she paints me blue And you are My reason For breathing Inside a room she paints me blue, again And you're my Good feeling I'm kneeling Inside a room she paints me blue And you are My reason For breathing Inside a room she paints me blue, again Atlanta started raining on me On me Atlanta started raining on me On me |

I'm on fire
And the day is feeling hopeless You'd see me burning but the burning's turning smokeless Soon I won't feel at all No It's electric the neon heard inside your phone call The letter's sadness and her madness it revolves Bringing down the walls where you found her No Well, I'm willing to break myself To shake this hell from everything I touch I'm willing to bleed for days more reds and grays So you don't hurt so much And now I'm static As your sky is turning purple and gray I'm learning that the further that I crawl The farther that I fall, is that ok? No And you're in pieces As your world becomes a rainstorm You've got no shelter I'm a thousand miles away You'll survive the day You say you're leaving You say you're leaving Well, I'm willing to break myself To shake this hell from everything I touch I'm willing to bleed for days more reds and grays So you don't hurt so much So you don't hurt so much Never again will I fire this gun No never again you're the only one No never again but you're already gone I'm willing to break myself I'm not afraid I'm willing to break myself I'm not afraid I'm willing to break myself I'm not afraid Well, I'm willing to break myself To shake this hell from everything I touch I'm willing to bleed for days more reds and grays So you don't hurt so much So much So much So much So much |

I'm under attack again my dear, I'm in the way
Got no resolutions, no clever anecdotes to say And still if I yell at the top of my lungs will it be the same? I'd fly you a flag, I'd bury this pen into my veins I wanna feel through you tonight But I won't make you I won't make you The telephone number I got for you says nobody's home The best thing I can think to do right now is leave it alone And you had an apology in your mailbox since last July It's funny when you find the words to say you find no reply I wanna feel through you tonight But I won't make you I won't make you Scream my name just one more time But I won't make you I won't make you And it's been hours now To be here like this And just to lay you down And just to taste your lips And just to keep me up God I'm tired of sleeping And just to lay inside you And just to know this feeling I wanna feel through you tonight But I won't make you I won't make you Scream my name just one more time But I won't make you I won't make you |

Some days go by,
I wish I was famous Or maybe religious, so I could go to heaven Just like you I can have a big house, complain about taxes Payoff my ex's, ain't that living No one makes fun of me, cause I can't stand up for myself Woah, 21 and invincible Woah, can't wait to screw this up And woah, 21 and invincible I'm in power for the hour I guess today's gonna blow us away I've got a girlfriend She tells me she needs me And she loves me We'll probably get married Oh no, and everyone will bite their tongues so hard they'll bleed When mom hears this song She'll tell me I'm crazy And she'll say to me Son you're much too young, go have some fun don't waste Your youth like I did And woah, 21 and invincible Woah, can't wait to screw this up And woah, 21 and invincible I'm in power for the hour I guess today's gonna blow us away And it's been autumn since the day that I met you If I hit bottom, I'd crawl out alone And I don't wish you know the secrets of summer at all And woah, 21 and invincible Woah, can't wait to fuck this up And woah, 21 and invincible I'm in power for the hour I guess today's gonna blow us away |

Another lonely night in Amersterdam
And stars are coming out in waves I miss my Miss America in Park Hotel But I'm too stoned to call it a day And when everything you wanted Is to hide behind your eyes And I'm locked in my hotel room Turning over our goodbyes I will write this down for you So you can read it I will hold my breath for you Till I can't feel it Another lonely night in Amsterdam And water's moving through the sound The blood is boiling in my veins And the food I can't keep down And I don't care if you don't love me And I don't care if you don't change I could live inside the shadow that I cast for you And the myth that you would stay And I'll be home before the morning comes You won't have to be alone I will write this down for you So you can read it I will hold my breath for you Till I can't feel it You don't have to see me this way Cause this way I'm okay I will write this down, I will write this down Oh love, I'm tangled up, again Oh love, when does this twisting end? When does this twisting end? I will write this down for you So you can read it I will hold my breath for you Till I can't feel it You won't have to see me this way Cause this way I'm okay I will write this down for you So you can read it |

I'm lost at sea,
The radio is jamming but they wont find me, I swear its for the best And then your frequency is pulling me in closer Til I'm home. And I've been up for days I finally lost my mind And then I lost my way. I'm blistered but I'm better and I'm home. And I will crawl, theres things that aren't worth giving up I know. But I won't let this get me I will fight. You live the life you're given with the storms outside somedays all I do is watch the sky. This room's too small, it's only getting smaller I'm against the wall, I'm slowly getting taller here in Wonderland. This guilt feels so familiar and I'm home. And I will crawl, theres things that aren't worth giving up I know. But I won't let this get me I will fight. You live the life you're given with the storms outside somedays all I do is watch the sky, Somedays all I do is watch the sky. I think I, I could use a little break, today was a good day. I think I, I could use a little break, today was a good day. It's a deep sea on which I'm floating. Still I sink to think that i must... Crawl, theres things that aren't worth giving up I know. When you can't bear to carry me I'll fight. You live the life you're given with the storms outside somedays all I do is watch the sky, Today was a good day, today was a good day. |
