I was walking down the street doing nothing
When she ran right into me and I was wondering If it could be that she didn't see But she spit that hatred at my face I felt like I wanted to fight When I saw her hungry eyes and broken heart And recognized her pain I saw it I know it and I walked away Only love could save her anyway I can't believe all the times that we bleed That it's all for nothing I will deny all the tears that we cry That it's all for nothing Sometimes I feel so confused when I look at us And all we went through After eight years of sharing every dream together We don't even talk Is that all there is What we stood up for Now we stand behind a million locked doors And we can't even say that we'll be friends Sometimes things just change and we don't know why I don't think I'll swallow that kind of lie I can't believe all the times that we bleed That it's all for nothing I will deny all the tears that we cry That it's all for nothing Do we all want to believe there's more to this Than the lights just turning out Now we gotta have a real conversation even if we don't Know each other's situation Who says we're powerless just because of all the injustice There's still time to fight You just gotta go you just gotta try You're the only one that's standing in your way Sometimes things keep changin' we don't know why Don't think I'll swallow that kind of lie I can't believe all the times that we bleed That it's all for nothing I will deny all the tears that we cry That it's all for nothing |

Fill me up with a promise
Touch my eyes so I can see The tears have dried the clouds have broken Come to me Fill my body with innocence Come lay your head upon my pillow Test my strength over and over 'Til I'm weak Won't you make me weak Hey now take me back to Eden I'll fly when you call my name Give me Heaven while I'm sleepin' Back to Eden hey hey now now I surrender tear my house down Shame will lose its hold on me A thousand nights I invite you Crash through me Hey now take me back to Eden I'll fly when you call my name Just like it was in the beginning Back to Eden hey hey now now hey hey now now hey hey now now hey hey now now hey hey now now I tremble when you pass through me I burn like a rose on fire This secret storm in me is humbled by your desire I swallow your kisses deep A million voices rise up They cry they cry they cry out to me Fill me up with a promise come to me Won't you come to me Hey now take me back to Eden I'll fly when you call my name Give me Heaven while I'm sleeping Back to Eden hey hey now now hey hey now now... |

If you could have told me
I wouldn't find my way back home Never would have closed the door I Never would have left the phone unplugged All night Waiting for the sunrise to take me out of here Back to nowhere Wish you could have told me Who knows if I, could have heard Love don't make the reasons why Some people just don't find the words to convey The truth Of the passion that they're feeling Why do I keep falling back? Back to nowhere Wishing you could hold me Like you used to in the dark Lay your body next to mine But does it anywhere, does your star Are you sure, you're fine But in case it's me you're missing You should know I'd gladly go Back to somewhere Back to anywhere I go With you |

I wouldn't blame you if you
Threw away the key I can't expect you to keep the Door unlocked for me I'm happy that you waited 'Cause I know it's complicated Keeping up with me Oh no-it's almost that time again For me to go round and round In my head today I get so bored when I stay Oh it could have been a good thing [Chorus] I-I'm the bad bad one I know how hard you try for me But I'm immature I run away for fun I guess I'm not ready for a good love And I'I'm the bad bad one I'm the bad bad one I wouldn't blame you if you tried to hang me I keep you running around the same old tree I wouldn't be the same if I didn't get away With acting out for free oh no You seem to like it better when I'm mean And here comes the fight again About our cloudy fate Well it looks like rain I know it should have been a good thing [Chorus] I know you could be the one I I could let you give me good love [Chorus] I'm just not read- I'm just not ready for a good love |

I hate the world today
You're so good to me, I know but I can't change Tried to tell you but you looked at me like maybe I'm an angel underneath Innocent and Sweet Yesterday I cried You must have been relieved to see the softer side I can understand how you'd be so confused I don't envy you I'm a little bit of everything, all rolled into one I'm a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a child, I'm a mother, I'm a sinner, I'm a saint I do not feel ashamed I'm your hell, I'm your dream, I'm nothin in between, You know you wouldn't want it any other way. So take me as I am This may mean you'll have to be a stronger man Rest assured that when I start to make you nervous And I'm goin to extremes Tomorrow I will change and today won't mean a thing I'm a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a child, I'm a mother, I'm a sinner, I'm a saint I do not feel ashamed I'm your hell, I'm your dream, I'm nothin in between, You know you wouldn't want it any other way. Just when you think You got me figured out The season's already changing I think it's cool, You do what you do And don't try to save me I'm a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a child, I'm a mother, I'm a sinner, I'm a saint I do not feel ashamed I'm your hell, I'm your dream, I'm nothin in between, You know you wouldn't want it any other way. I'm a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a child, I'm a mother, I'm a sinner, I'm a saint I do not feel ashamed I'm your hell, I'm your dream, I'm nothin in between, You know you wouldn't want it any other way. I'm a bitch, I'm a tease I'm a goddess on my knees When you're hurt, when you suffer I'm your angel undercover I've been numb, I'm revived Can't say I'm not alive You know I wouldn't want it any other way..... |

I'm just a little defensive
But I'll be o.k. tomorrow This happens once in awhile 'Till I'm back on my feet Once I get out of bed I'll come to my senses Feed my head A double shot of caffeine A pair of shades can change it all Maybe Superman will jump the wall Whatever it takes to get on with the world 'Cuz I'm bored with myself So very bored with myself More and more everyday And I wonder if Marilyn ever felt this way We're moving so fast Why do I feel so empty There's clothes in my closet But nothing to wear It's a mysterious thing The more that I acquired The less hungry I am but not more satisfied There's India where I can chant Therapy to rave and rant Whatever it takes to distract me from being so Bored with myself So scary bored with myself More and more everyday And I wonder if Jacqueline ever felt this way I'm a little uninspired It happens to the best of us I know I shouldn't take it hard But I'm so afraid this time I'll never change Won't shake it off I'll just go insane More and more everyday And I wonder if Loretta Lynn ever felt this way I'm so bored with myself So very bored with myself So bored with myself |

Snap your fingers and they'll come
Running to you awesome one Getting lonely out in space It's not such a special place On the outside looking in At the bag girl you've been Isn't this what you always wanted? Isn't this how you saw the view? Careful what you wish for It just might come true Might come true You say catch me when I'll spin As if we been through thick and thin I don't think that you can stop You still want what you ain't got Such a stupid superstar Yeah you are Isn't this what you always wanted? Isn't this how you saw the view? Careful what you wish for It just might come true Might come true Isn't this what you always pictured? Isn't this what you plan to do? Careful what you wish for It just might come true Tryin' to find the meaning of life In a deeper shade of red on your lips Tryin' to find the way to be loved Without ever givin' a shit But enjoy yeah while you can After all the jagged ends You come round again and again and again Isn't this what you always wanted? Isn't this how you saw the view? Careful what you wish for It just might come true Might come true Isn't this what you always pictured? Isn't this what you plan to do? Careful what you wish for It just might come true Might come true Isn't this what you always wanted |

Spirituality is a henna tattoo
That you wash off when you find something new to get into Standing in the field with your flashlight blinking ?Cuz somebody told you the aliens were thinking they?d want you In the end it doesn?t really matter what you say or what you wear So you think Big G gives a ?how you get there Buddhism, Communism, Hinduism, Health Foodism, Lennonism, Sexism What about your own ism Just get real Don?t be a cosmic woo woo Be who you are let everybody deal Speak with your own voice just get real Just get real like this When I was fifteen I made my mother rant ?Cuz I joined a cult gave me words to chant to reach Heaven So I used them for the lotto and won big money They shouted you're in don?t worry honey This ain?t 7-11 get in and out Pop psychology words don?t mean anything When you throw them around to be cool What goes around comes around That?s what they say Catholicism, Footballism, Judaism, Racism, Manism, Womanism What about Humanism Just get real Don?t be a cosmic woo woo Be who you are let everybody deal Speak with your own voice just get real Just get real don?t be a cosmic woo woo Be who you really are let everybody deal Speak with your own voice just get real Cosmic Woo Woo Just get real |

Jump in it's fine without a lifeboat I will give it another try You say come back, don't go in too deep But it's a rush to see me do it Cause you don't dare Even though there's nothing to it This town's always gonna think I'm a little crazy Somebody's always gonna try to label me insane Funny how I always seem to be the one who's crazy I just wanna live, I don't wanna fit If that makes me crazy, then I am No way I feel like nothings goin' My way but my future's bright Don't have a single dollar left Got my keys inside my car and the high way is opening wide You ask me where, I can't tell you But I'm putting town the pedal tonight You say don't change a single thing But your list is longer than my day I can't help wondering When all is said and all is done Am I the crazy one? I just want to live I don't want to fit I just want to try I don't want to quit If that makes me crazy, I am. |

I love the sound of summer disco in the air.
I throw my hands up like I just don't care. It makes no difference where it's comin' from. I'm on my way the party's just begun. <i>[Chorus]</i> Let me hear ya say I-I-I no-no-no-no-no I'm not getting high. I-I-I No matter what you do I'm not getting high. Sister freaky in a cloud of purple haze She's groovin'; slowly through the Milky way. The fish are jumpin' Everybody's free. This kind of movie you will never ever see. <i>[Chorus]</i> Don't pass it my way. I'm already high yea I'm fly. What you say or do Leave it up to you This kind of something you will never see. Baby if you want it come and get it 'Cause it's something that you can't deny. <i>[Chorus]</i> |

Woke up this morning with my head so heavy...
Thought about leaving on the next train comin' Sometimes it gets so easy running from town to town But changing beds won't change this feeling that I'm gonna drown Too many hearts are broken-- we're never asked why Too many sunsets are just passing us by Come over here now don't be shy Do you want to be happy or you want to be right? It don't get much better than this There's nowhere left to run to No use worryin' about what you missed Cause here it is baby it don't get better than this We talk and talk and never know what it means It really doesn't matter 'cause nothin's ever what is seems All I ever wanted is here with you But sometimes, baby, I get wrapped up and confused So lets go on down to the edge of the sand Take some time and take my hand So much here we don't understand So kiss me like the world is gonna end! It don't get much better than this There's nowhere left to run to No use worryin' about what you missed Cause here it is baby: It don't get better than this Oh, better than this Come on Come on take my hand It don't get much better than this There's nowhere left to run to No use worryin' about what you missed Yeah here it is baby: it don't get better than this Oh Oh Oh (various chorus shouts until end) |

Oh, you could walk the streets When the sun goes down In my little town You don't need defenses When the sun goes down In my my town You could walk the streets When the sun goes down In my little town You don't need defenses In my little town where I come from In my little town you don't need a gun In my little town where I come from In my little town |

Prick of a pin
No blood on me I've been tested Total wasted In too deep To the zone I retreat What doesn't kill you Makes you strong eventually Lay to my skin Blurring the edge Seven doves are waiting for me up ahead I just breathe in I just breathe out I've taken every hairpin curve by now I may crack But I'll never shatter I may crack But it doesn't matter I may crack But I'll never shatter I may crack Promise the world Dropped in a pool Was it fun Did you enjoy acting so cruel Well here's the thing Still have my head I stumble hard but I'm not sleeping in your bed Saved by the sun No shame on me Come out screaming it's the only time we're free I just breathe out I just breathe in I ride the wave until I come again I may crack But I'll never shatter I may crack But I'll never shatter I may crack But I'll never shatter I may crack But I'll never shatter Cause I still have a secret In the dark I keep it close I still have a secret no one knows I may crack, but I'll never shatter Just erased it over and over I may crack, but it doesn't matter In the darkness, I'll never shatter Shake down Twisted in time It's amusing that I'm feelin' fine I just breathe in, I just breathe out I may crack but I'll never shatter Cause I still have a secret In the dark I keep it close I still have a secret no one knows In the dark I keep it close I may crack But I'll never shatter I may crack But it doesn't matter I may crack But I'll never shatter I may crack |

Lucky that you found me
You gotta hang around me some more Cause I'll remind you I'll be around While you're waging your war With yourself And I See it clearer than you see it You gotta get out of your head to believe it Oh I know something about you You don't know That's where you shine When you're sinking you swim When you see your way out instead of in That's where you shine Like a diamond in the rough You're always so resilient That's where you shine When you're walking the edge No one's ever gonna catch you stumbling That's where you shine Remember when you told me To get up and dust yourself off It wasn't easy Everything can change And it usually does It does You said Shake it off like it ain't no big thing Won't be the last time we're sinking Oh I know some things about you You don't know That's where you shine When you think you've had enough Just a matter of time before you fade That's where you shine Like a clear in the brush Like a headlight breaking through the haze That's where you shine When there's nothing but no And there's nowhere to go You find a way That's where you shine Sometimes you need someone to see yourself clearer There's no reflection when it's you inside the mirror I know something about you you don't know That's where you shine When you're sinking you swim When you see your way out instead of in That's where you shine Like a diamond in the rough You're always so resilient That's where you shine When you're walking the edge No one's ever gonna catch you stumbling That's where you shine That's where you shine When you think you've had enough Just a matter of time before you fade That's where you shine Like a clear in the brush Like a headlight breaking through the haze That's where you shine When there's nothing but no And there's nowhere to go You find a way That's where you shine |

In this town of pain
You could be the lucky one Fate turns on a dime The only thing that will change Are the lights when they get brighter They replace the sun Out the door, you get burned And there is no way back in You've got nothing Snake eyes, the house always wins A drowning man does not die silently You can feel the final warning And the black money follows Through the veins of the shallow Change the name to protect the guilty You'll never leave Sin City Where you are king In this room of shame You could sink this town And breathe another day The mirror faces you You cannot look away Blood is on your hand The streets will be the same Under your feet like quicksand Touch the face where a kiss of hope can last A drowning man does not die silently You can feel the final warning And the black money follows Through the veins of the shallow Change the name to protect the guilty You'll never leave Sin City Where you are king A drowning man does not die silently You can feel the final warning And the black money follows Through the veins of the shallow Change the name to protect the guilty You'll never leave Sin City Just one kiss from the shadow Will be the touch of an angel Just one kiss is all that you need If you never leave Sin City You never leave Sin City You never leave Sin City Where you are king |

Somedays it goes your way
your on a road you can't explain and then it all goes down the drain Your cat's hit by a car the ATM eats you card you're wondering what changed from yesterday Save me from- from going mental Save me from just spinning out Somedays are better than others Somedays you just can't figure out Somedays you can't explain My best friend and me one night Were drinking peace on crescent height (?) Just like that we end up in a fight like a yo-yo up and down you're heading north you end up south Save me from- from going mental Save me from just spinning out Somedays are better than others Somedays you just can't figure out Somedays are better than others you can't explain somedays away someday Save me from- from going mental Save me from spinning out Somedays are better Somedays are never Somedays- whatever Somedays are better than lovers Somedays you just can't figure out Somedays are better than others Somedays you just can't get out Someday, yeah yeah |

I search through my mind
And it's hard trying to find Words that we haven't said To tame the thoughts in your head I can only promise you That I will see this through <i>[Chorus]</i> You can count on me, you can cry with me No one can divide me, you can depend on me To see this through, I will cover you I won't lie to you, I will choose to Stand by you I will stand by you Stand by you By you When you're feeling weak and You're close to defeat You can look in my eyes To find love, not my pride You know that it's true I'll be waiting here for you <i>[Chorus]</i> Fear can tear the road from underneath you Nothing's worth my pride and nothing's worth the Feeling in my life without you <i>[Chorus]</i> |

It's seven in the morning and your walking out the door
You got no time for coffee I'm standing here remembering when my kisses made you late Gonna take a minute for my morning meditation But I'm on the phone call... waiting... click... done Under an invasion I feel like I'm a spinning ball in a lottery cage If we aren't making love how can we be lovers? Gonna post a vacancy sign under the covers Before it gets to late I'm gonna say Stop what you're doing and love me now I'm making my move come on and love me now I come home so tired just wanna put my feet up You watch Letterman and eat something old I heat up Then we both fall asleep before the rooster starts to crow No time to fight we pretend love is so sweet When all we're missing is what's between the sheets Used to find an hour between start and go What ever happened to staying up all night? When the bed became our island and it was just you and I Our troubles would slip away when we said Stop what you're doing and love me now I'm making my move come on and love me now Time... time... Time... time... time... Are we meating the time? Just you and I, magic ride If we aren't making love how can we be lovers? Gonna post a vacancy sign under the covers Before it gets to late I'm gonna say Stop what you're doing and love me now I'm making my move come on and love me now Stop what you're doing and love me now I'm making my move come on and love me now |

Got a lot to say but I couldn't get it in
And we couldn't get along so it got in the way I'll give you the spin and you couldn't even talk But you never give in Yeah I can fight with the best of them And we've gone a few rounds and I shed a new light And I counted to ten but it didn't seem to matter You just wanted to win I won't let you drag me in I know you enjoy the pain Oh you won't feel anything Well I don't play that way [Chorus:] It's a sure bet The last thing you're ever gonna to hear from me Are my footsteps As I walk away (I walk away) You've tried everything To keep me coming back Oh but I'm spent As I walk away One thing's for sure last thing you're Ever gonna hear from me Are my footsteps as I walk away You love to fight and I couldn't get through And your blood is running hot makes you feel alive In everything you do and you want it that way I can't abide by you Look at the time I guess it went to waste But I'm good to go I gotta toe the line I'll make mistakes but I still got a chance I'm gonna take Everything you said Is like a kick in the head Don't count me out just yet Place your money here instead [Chorus] Can't even tell me that you want me But this time it's just all right Something that you'll face in the morning But baby if you want when I close this door I'll leave on the light [Chorus] |

Washed my hands of crimes
Pour the water over my skin, my spine Cleans my soul and ease my mind I've been fixed all the damage done Why do I always forget how far I've come? I'm done dying for the past I'm done dying for the past Sins all forgiven now Let's call it even shall we Can't you judge me for my love And not mistakes I've made I swear by who I am and not by yesterday I'm done dying for the past I'm done dying for the last time The last time, the last time, the last time In between black and white I disappear Circled around the stone until I landed here I'm done dying for the past I'm done dying for the past I'm done dying I'm done for the last time |

You were my wild companion
we were forever high high high we burned the night around us sleeping could wait until we die You were the scars of passion and since the crashing came You've broken every promise I walked away I watched you fall I was blind to ya was lying to ya like everyone else who watched you fall say they love you but they're laughing when you crawl It's such a weary feeling When you've been stealing from yourself wishing the world away blaming someone else no one can do this for you straighten you hair fix your face Take all the pain inside you wash it away I watched you fall I was blind to ya was lying to ya like everybody else who watched you fall say they love you but they're laughing when you crawl Did I hear you? Did I try? Can I forgive myself for not standing by? I watched you fall I was blind to ya was lying to ya like everybody else who watched you fall say they love you but they're laughing, laughin' when you crawl I was blind to ya was lying to you said I love you but I'm laughing when you crawl was blind to ya you fall I watched you fall I watched you |

Electricity
Eye to Eye Hey don't I know you I can't speak Striped my senses On the spot I've never been defenseless I can't even make sense of this You speak and I don't hear a word What would happen if we kissed Would your tongue slip past my lips Would you run away Would you stay Or would I melt into you Mouth to mouth Lust to lust Spontaneously combust The room is spinning Out of control Act like you didn't notice Brushed my hand Forbidden fruit Ring on my finger You're such a moral moral man Would you throw it away No question Will I pretend I'm innocent What would happen if we kissed Would your tongue slip past my lips Would you run away Would you stay Or would I melt into you Mouth to mouth Lust to lust Spontaneously combust What would happen if we kissed I struggle with myself again Quickly the walls come crumbling Don't know if I can turn away What would happen if we kissed Would your tongue slip past my lips Would you run away Would you stay Or would I melt into you Mouth to mouth If we kissed Would your tongue slip past my lips Would you run away Would you stay Or would I melt into you Mouth to mouth If we kissed If we kissed |

Today I write in my book
Dear God I need a change I can't keep hiding Wishing the mirror was lying Show me where do I look I know there must be a plan Though I can't see one I go through the motions anyway Here I go again Walking down a road I've never known I want to go where lovers meet I want to breathe the air they breathe I want to touch the dreams they dream When I find someone to love I want to go where lovers Where lovers meet I know my faith is blind I'll take my chances I'm tired of just surviving I'm not wasting any time Just like tears in the rain No one can see Inside my heart is crying Telling me I can't lie any more Here I go again Walking down a road I've never known I want to go where lovers meet I want to breathe the air they breathe I want to touch the dreams they dream When I find someone to love I want to go where lovers meet Feel the wind beneath my feet Oh I want to feel that complete When I find someone I spent half my life Wasting my time I don't want to hear my heart beating alone Oh I want to go where lovers meet I want to breathe the air they breathe I want to touch the dreams they dream When I find someone to love I want to go where lovers meet Feel the wind beneath my feet Oh I want to feel that complete When I find someone I want to go I want to go where lovers meet I want to go |

I was wrong this was my mistake
I resolve to save what's mine again I've always wanted to believe in things And I pity you for taking that from me You tried to erase the guilt that's on your face But you're just hiding out behind your cool Like a hurricane you changed And because you took the blame You thought that would be enough And then I'd be on my way [Chorus] Did you think that I would let you forget me? Did you think that I would just lie on the floor? As you walked into you future did you think I would give you control? Well, you don't know me Did you think that I would simply forgive you? Maybe you think I'd just lay down and die As you walked away, didn't you think I'd survive? Well, you don't know me My world changed like a thought replaced I was faithful to the promises you made When you say my name Will it sound the same As when you used to talk to me so cool ? You want me to pretend So you'll have your happy end To wash away your guilt And make it easier for you, oh [Chorus] |

You're everywhere I walk
I don't remember if I smiled I don't think we talked But you always hung around a while And I don't know your name Yeah I think that you were tall I don't remember if I was ever nice to you at all Suddenly you come undone You tell me I'm the only one You hold my head up with a gun And tell me that we are in love You touch me and you want the same I close my eyes and start to pray And tell you I will be the way You want if you will only say your name You wrote me everyday I never knew that it was you I just threw it all away I didn't know what else to do Jesus told you to find me And never ever let me go And we would be so happy He promised you that I would know Suddenly you come undone You tell me I'm the only one You hold my head up with a gun And tell me that we are in love You touch me and you want the same I close my eyes and start to pray And tell you I will be the way You want if you will only say your name your name I am so sorry so sorry oh I am so sorry Jesus forgot to tell me I see that you are crying I know you only meant to be with me Maybe I was hasty I should have listened more carefully Please tell me it's not too late Your decision has been made Before you pull the trigger Please won't you tell me your name your name Suddenly you come undone You tell me I'm the only one You hold my head up with a gun And tell me that we are in love You touch me and you want the same I close my eyes and start to pray And tell you I will be the way You want if you will only say your name |
