Well I could tell you all about the time
that I spent with you but then I'd cry
I don't want to do anything like that.
But I don't understand the way I think
about everything that I see
I just think that it will turn out right.
So I say goodbye
to everything that ever was
to make me think as though I am
the way that I would want to be
So I say goodbye
to all the stupid things you say
why I just don't float away
I just have to wonder why
Why wonder why.
Well we could even go out all night
maybe see a movie alright
everything is going to be just fine
Although it seemed to end on that day
I would try again and someday
maybe you would start to understand
But then I see your point of view
its like I'm lying out here living out here
stuck out on the edge
But then I realize my life is real
and everything just seems to float on by
and thats the reason why.
DAYS LIKE THESE
Every so often I try to find
that moment in time when you were mine
and I can see you there on the floor
and it makes me miss you even more.
So far away and yet so close
It's you who I love the most
and I can see it in the end
I'm yours forever will you be my friend.
On the horizon I see the sky fall
a beautiful death for us all
burn with us may you rest in peace
I loved those days those days like these.
PALERMO
When I'm walking girl I think about you every day
and when I'm thinking I remember that I'm moving away
and even though it makes me feel so blue
thats when I realize well I'm in love with you.
You make me think about the times we spent and everything we had
you make me contemplate the reasons why I'm leaving here so sad
Cause everything you said to me seems it would always be so true
thats when I realize well I'm in love with you.
And now I'm leaving and I'll never even think of coming back
and I don't know It seems so strange that I would even think of that
I sit alone some times at night and try not to cry but I do
thats when I realize well I'm in love with you.
FIT TO CHANGE
Today I woke up on the eve of something new
there in my dreams I'm just focusing on you
Seeing your face I guess
I guess I'm losing the race that I started with you
I could change my mind
I could change my dreams
I could change my life
I could change my jeans
I could sell my car
Not go to the bar
and maybe for once I'd be happy.
The rumors are flying and I'm just denying
the questions that everyone asks
It's all about me and how I might be
But I just don't care anymore
If you'd come over tonight
everything would be all right
And I just wouldn't care about it any more
If you'd just show up at my front door.
I could change my mind
I could change my dreams
I could change my life
I could change my jeans
I could sell my car
Not go to the bar
and maybe for once I'd be happy.
P. M. A. (positive mental attitude)
Have you ever thought of the others point of view,
or ever thought of the other persons pain,
cause your too busy being stupid,
Why do you think your not that way?
Why don't you look at someone else,
just stop admiring yourself,
pay attention, can you see real far,
pay attention, redefine the way you are,
I tell you now,
Do you know what's going on with your life?
Do you think that something's wrong with your life?
Do you ever want it to be alright?
Do you know what's going on with your life?
To busy being popular,
acquiring wealth and fame,
you don't realize what's wrong,
It's driving you insane!
Do you want help?
stop thinking so negatively
be your own damn self,
express your individuality
I'm getting sick of all your doubted points of view!
I'm getting sick of everything I saw in you!
I tell you now.
Repeat Chorus
NOW AND THEN
Every now and then I think,
about the day when we first met,
and I know that I will never be the same
And still the thought enters my head,
what we did and what you said,
all the problems that I have to face
Every now and then,
I think about my life,
I wonder what went wrong,
I wonder what went right,
And every now and then,
I think about my friends,
I wonder who they are,
I wonder where they've been,
And every now and then,
I think about you.
All these choices in my head,
Consequences that I dread,
Wish that I could just make up my mind!
All these things I know are true,
I need something, I need you,
I need something that I just can't find!
Repeat Chorus
SIMPLE MINDED
Did you forget about the time when I,
I took my close off for a bet,
Or in that coffee shop some time ago,
In that place where we first met,
Lost and living in this world around me,
I'm looking back on every thing that I can see,
I'm lost and living in another world alone,
Wishing that I might never make it home.
And now it's seems as though you moved along
Well I hope he treats you right,
And even though I know that I'll be sad,
I'll be alright tonight
Repeat Chorus (twice)
LOCKERBAY SHENANIGANS
So what has been done,
To hurt, hurt no one,
You think this will end,
Well just think again,
Don't want you hovering above,
Showing artificial love,
Just want to have some fun,
So just leave me alone!
So easy to attack,
Just get off my back,
Why won't you let me be!
I'm trying to mature,
Not sure if I'm sure,
I'm only seventeen!!
I try hard to be,
All that you want to see,
Living up to your goals,
I guess we're both the fools!
Never had it right,
Never had an easy life,
I'm struggling all the way,
And for this do I get paid!
Repeat Chorus
NEW THINGY
Seems I don't know exactly what to say or do,
So I will try maybe to do something that is new,
Wish I could do something that would be special,
Then I would seem to be the one that is cool and,
Now I missed my chance,
Forgot what I read,
Forgot what I did,
Forgot what you said,
Wish I would have tried only one more time!
Three nights ago I waited here for you,
To tell you everything that I know,
Three nights ago I waited here for you!
I saw you the other day times been good to you
I didn't know what to say I didn't know what to do,
You've got what you want I hope you think your right.
Three nights ago I waited here for you,
To tell you everything that I know,
Three nights ago I waited here for you!
Three nights ago I waited here for you,
To tell you all about your lies,
Three nights ago I said goodbye.
FIFTH & MAIN
Sitting in my basement on a Sunday afternoon,
Dreaming of the last time we were underneath the moon,
Moving up the ladder at a very rapid pace,
Taking in the sites as they move by my painted face,
I scream yeah yeah.
Go away again,
Go away again,
Go away and take this past of mine away from me,
Just please go away!
Sitting at the bus stop on a rainy Tuesday night,
Looking at the stars above, looking for a fight,
Coffee shops and punk rock clubs is all I seem to see,
Photographs and memories of the way it used to be!
Repeat Chorus
IN THE MIDDLE
Last night,
On the phone,
I talked to you,
You were alone,
You told me,
Just maybe,
You think that,
I'm crazy,
Well anyway,
I'm moving on,
I'll try again,
There's something wrong,
And now and then,
I think about,
All the stupid things I used to think about you.
I in such a bind,
And I'm left to chose,
Can't make up my mind,
Don't know what to do,
It's all up to me,
If I want this to end,
To decide honestly,
Still be your friend.
But how could I act,
And what could I say,
To get you off my back,
But make you want to stay,
It's just so hard,
not to break your heart,
I hate this responsibility!
Now look at what we've done,
And now I must decide,
Just two as one,
If I want this to die,
It really hurts me so,
Separation is so tough,
But I want to stay so close,
And I want your love.
Repeat Chorus
