                                           I give you up while you sit here in all your glory 
                                                   I never thought you would 
                                                    I never knew you could 
                                            But now you're gone and I don't think I care 
                                          I sold your love down the river for a bow and arrow

                                                  Don't kick me when I'm down 
                                                   I never thought you would 
                                                      I never understood 
                                            And that's why I'm weak and i want you to try 
                                                    To make me an exemple 
                                                        One last time 
                                                  To drag me through the cycle

                                                     The morning sad

                                                    Wake up and talk to me 
                                                  It's a long time since last night 
                                             I know we said things the saddest things 
                                                  And I'm not sure it was wise 
                                                  But when the morning's sad 
                                                     You don't look back 
                                                Though you sure don't look ahead 
                                            The morning sad you know the morning sad 
                                       The morning sad never had it so bad, never had it so bad
                                                   I'm writing desperate songs 
                                                 While you're fast asleep inside 
                                                  I could try to sing until it rings 
                                                 But my voice comes out uptight 
                                           Cause when the morning's sad you don't relax 
                                                 No you cannot clear your mind 
                                            The morning sad you know the morning sad 
                                       The morning sad never had it so bad, never had it so bad
                                             I tried a little I tried a lot I'm not a window 
                                       And you've seen through everything I've got I don't think 
                                 That I'll be safe until everyone's awake everybody, everybody everybody
                                                   So wake up and talk to me 
                                                 Such a long time since last night 
                                             I know we said things the maddest things 
                                                 And I'm not sure who was right 
                                             When the morning's sad you don't attack 
                                               Cause you're much too weak to fight 
                                            The morning sad you know the morning sad 
                                               The morning sad never had it so bad 
                                                     Never had it so bad ....

                                                     Sound of the bell

                                                I found a place where we can talk
                                              I found a way to reach a middle ground 
                                                 Keep your castle in my sandbox 
                                                Build it up so we can burn it down 
                                                     Anyway I love my man 
                                            Love to keep him spinning round and round 
                                               Keep him feeding love from my hands 
                                                  Anyway to turn him inside out 
                                              I don't wanna go down like the sunlight 
                                              I don't wanna go out like the moonlight 
                                           I don't wanna be found at the sound of the bell, 
                                             The sound of the bell, the sound of the bell
                                                  Meet me up and down again 
                                                Everytime is sweeter than the last 
                                                 Once you get a taste of impact 
                                                You're always hungry for the crash 
                                              I don't wanna go down like the sunlight 
                                              I don't wanna go out like the moonlight 
                                           I don't wanna be found at the sound of the bell
                                             The sound of the bell, the sound of the bell
                                                     And this is everything 
                                                 I have loved yeah I have loved 
                                            Down I don't wanna go down like the sunlight 
                                              I don't wanna go out like the moonlight 
                                           I don't wanna be found at the sound of the bell
                                             The sound of the bell, the sound of the bell
                                            Down I don't wanna go down like the sunlight 
                                              I don't wanna go out like the moonlight 
                                           I don't wanna be found at the sound of the bell
                                             The sound of the bell, the sound of the bell
                                             I don't wanna be found in the searchlight 
                                               I don't wanna be dim like a nightlight

                                                   Loneliness is worse

                                                   When you've had enough 
                                                 When you've got it bad enough 
                                                     And you can't let go 
                                                    When it comes to blows 
                                                    And you start to overflow 
                                                    And you can't get home
                                             Iit's a subtle kind of cruel it taps my spine 
                                             Here I'm drawing a line I'm asking please 
                                              Don't you want to be happy with me X2
                                              I'm afraid if you don't come around soon
                                                I'll turn sadder than you ever were 
                                         And you'll learn loneliness is worse you've got to try 
                                        December's all alone and he's calling me on the phone 
                                                    But he sounds so cold 
                                         He says he loves me so but how would I ever know 
                                                    Certain words grow old 
                                           It's a vicious kind of catch it sides me blind now 
                                                I'm out of my mind I want to scream 
                                              Don't you want to be happy with me X2
                                              I'm afraid if you don't come around soon 
                                                I'll turn sadder than you ever were 
                                         And you'll learn loneliness is worse you've got to try 
                                                    Love liked me long ago 
                                             It had a way of making everyone the same
                                         But now the angels must laugh and sigh to hear me 
                                              Pleading with you needing you this way
                                           Ooh why don't you want to be happy with me X2
                                I'm afraid if you don't come around soon I'll turn sadder than you ever were 
                                         And you'll learn loneliness is worse you've got to try 
                                                    To stay mine all the way
                                              Don't you want to be happy with me X2
                                              I'm afraid if you don't come around soon 
                                                I'll turn sadder than you ever were

                                                Sleep little flea little boy me a freak 
                                       Am I clean I feel like men I feel like boys I think I'm peeling 
                                            The ringing in my ears from playing too loud 
                                                I hear the ocean I hear the crowd
                                                I'm disconnected I am unattached 
                                            An unmade bed makes me feel like a failure
                                           Bedroom eyes lead to blurry vision, blurry vision
                                                   And the ringing in my ears 
                                                     From playing too loud 
                                                I hear the ocean I hear the crowd 
                                        Too pale too sick too scrawny but I'll sleep here anyway
                                                 And the sheets smell like bodies
                                                  Not mine not yours, not yours
                                                  It's two am and it's quiet again
                                                      Where's my lip gloss
                                                   And the ringing in my ears 
                                                     From playing too loud 
                                               I hear the ocean I hear the crowd ....
