Mel: As I知 talking my words slip to the floor and they crawl through your legs and slide under the back door rendering me freakish and dazed. Well here I am. I don't know how to say this. The only thing I know is awkward silence. Your eyelids close when you're around me to shut me out. So I値l go walking in the streets until my heels bleed and I値l sing out my song in case the birds wish to sing along. And I値l dig a tunnel to the center of the universe. I値l make my way across the frozen sea, beyond the blank horizon, where I can forget "you and me" and get a decent night's sleep. ~freakish~

Elaine: Are you gonna live your life wonderin' standing in the back lookin' around? Are you gonna waste your time thinkin' how you've grown up or how you missed out? Things are never gonna be the way you want. Where's it gonna get you acting serious? Things are never gonna be quite what you want. Or even at 25, you gotta start sometime. I'm on my feet, I'm on the floor, I'm good to go. Now all I need is just to hear a song I know. I wanna always feel like part of this was mine. I wanna fall in love tonight. Are you gonna live your life standing in the back looking around? Are you gonna waste your time? Gotta make a move or you'll miss out. Someone's gonna ask you what it's all about. Stick around nostalgia won't let you down. Someone's gonna ask you what it's all about. Whatcha gonna have to say for yourself? I'm on my feet, I'm on the floor, I'm good to go. Now all I need is just to hear a song I know. I wanna always feel like part of this was mine. I wanna fall in love tonight. Crimson and clover, over and over. Crimson and clover, over and over. Our house in the middle of the street, why did we ever meet? Started my rock 'n roll fantasy. Don't, don't, don't let's start, why did we ever part? Kick start my rock 'n rollin' heart. I'm on my feet, I'm on the floor, I'm good to go. So come on Davey, sing me somethin' that I know. I wanna always feel like part of this was mine. I wanna fall in love tonight. Here tonight. I wanna always feel like part of this was mine. I wanna fall in love tonight. ~a praise chorus~

Julia: I'm bouncing off the walls again. I'm looking like a fool again. I threw away my reputation. One more song for the radio station. I'm bouncing off the walls again. I'm looking like a fool again. Waking up on the bathroom floor. Pull myself together just to fall once more. And my heart's still beating out of my chest. And this town is still making me sick. And every penny from my last paycheck I've blown on you. I'm bouncing off the walls again. I'm looking like a fool again. So go ahead and take a picture, and hang it up so you can tear me down. I don't care 'cause I'm still here. And I've got nothing to lose with all the years I wasted on you. Mom and Daddy got the best cocaine. Ritalin's never gonna feel the same. Twenty-four hours on an empty brain. I got my finger on the trigger, and you're in the way. I'm bouncing off the walls again. I'm looking like a fool again. I threw away my reputation. One more song for the radio station. I'm bouncing off the walls again. I'm looking like a fool again. I'm bouncing off the walls again. I'm looking like a fool again. I'm bouncing off the walls again. ~bouncing off the walls~

Right now I really don't care if I'm alone or if I got you sittin' here. Oh, no look I've done it again. Man I should think about it before I say anything. 1,2,3,4, Looks like I'm alone again and... I feel fine. Doesn't really matter now cause I'm all right. She knocked me on my ass again, but I don't mind. Looks like I'm alone again and I feel fine. Right now I don't know what to say, because you're mean and I never liked you anyway. Don't ever call 'cause I don't want to be friends. Excuse me now because the chorus is comin' up again. 1,2,3,4, Looks like I'm alone again and... I feel fine. Doesn't really matter now cause I'm all right. She knocked me on my ass again, but I don't mind. Looks like I'm alone again, and I feel fine. They come and go and I don't feel a thing. It's not 'cause I'm a jerk, and I don't care. And I don't know what's the matter with me. I only know the right girl still out there. I feel fine. Doesn't really matter now cause I'm all right. She knocked me on my ass again, but I don't mind. Looks like I'm alone again, and I feel fine. I feel fine. Doesn't really matter now cause I'm all right. She knocked me on my ass again, but I don't mind. Looks like I'm alone again, and I feel fine. ~i feel fine~

Fred: We've been together for such a long time. Now music, music and me. Dont care whether all our songs rhyme. Now music, music and me. How they know wherever I go, we're as close as to friends can be. There have been others, but never two lovers like music, music and me. Grab a song and come along. You can sing your melody. In your mind you will find a world of sweet harmony. Birds of a feather we'll fly together. Now music, music and me, music and me. ~music and me~

Katy: I'd like to close my eyes and go numb. But there's a cold wind coming from the top of the highest high-rise today. It's not a breeze 'cause it blows hard. Yes and it wants me to discard the humanity I know, watch the warmth blow away. Do you think I should adhere to that pressing new frontier? And leave in my wake a trail of fear? Or should I hold my head up high and throw a wrench and spokes by, leaving the air behind me clear? Don't let the world bring you down. Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold. Remember why you came, and while you're alive, experience the warmth before you grow old. ~the warmth~

Jon: I'm packed, and I'm holding. I'm smiling, she's living, she's golden. And she lives for me. She says she lives for me. Ovation, she's got her own motivation. She comes round, and she goes down on me. And I make her smile. It's like a drug for you. Do ever what you want to do. Coming over you, keep on smiling, what we go through. One stop to the rhythm that divides you. And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse. Chop another line like a coda with a curse. And I come on like a freak show takes the stage. We give them the games we play. She said I want something else to get me through this semi-charmed kind of life. I want something else. I'm not listening when you say good-bye. The sky it was gold; it was rose. I was taking sips of it through my nose. And I wish I could get back there, some place back there. Smiling in the pictures you would take, doing crystal myth will lift you up until you break. It won't stop. I won't come down, I keep stock with a tick-tock rhythm and a bump for the drop. And then I bumped up. I took the hit I was given. Then I bumped again. And then I bumped again. How do I get back there to the place where I fell asleep inside you? How do I get myself back to the place where you said, I want something else to get me through this semi-charmed kind of life. I want something else. I'm not listening when you say good-bye. I believe in the sand beneath my toes. The beach gives a feeling, an earthy feeling. I believe in the faith that grows. And the four right chords can make me cry. When I'm with you I feel like I could die. And that would be all right, all right. When the plane came in she said she was crashing. The velvet it rips in the city we tripped on the urge to feel alive. But now I'm struggling to survive the days you were wearing that velvet dress. You're the priestess, I must confess. Those little red panties, they pass the test. Slide up around the belly face down on the mattress. One, now you hold me, and we're broken. Still its all that I want to do. Feel myself with a head made of the ground. I'm scared, but I'm not coming down. And I won't run for my life. She's got her jaws just locked now in smile. But nothing is all right, all right. I want something else to get me through this semi charmed kind of life. I want something else. I'm not listening when you say good-bye. ~semi-charmed life~
