The Darkest Places"
Maybe it is dangerous To invite a stranger into the room with us The noise is growing louder but i'm not scared at all
When there's no more money in politics They'll be tearing down the union brick by brick There'll be cynics holding clinics about where we have been With every self-proclaimed historian
You know i know you don't want this You don't need this
I'm shining the light on the darkest places You know and i know we have to face this now We have to face this now
The days are growing dark what are we gonna do? The countries in a panic when i turn on the tube So maybe i'll just wake up in the afternoon
You can change the channels on your tv Push all the little buttons 'til your fingers bleed But you won't change me There's nothing i would do for you cause You don't wanna see
You know i know you don't want this You can't dismiss
I'm shining the light on the darkest places You know and i know we have to face this now We have to face this now I'm shining the light on the darkest places Putting the word out we have to face this now We have to face this now
A generation taking numbers, making calls As shadows move across my bedroom wall
I'm shining the light on the darkest places You know and i know we have to face this now We have to face this now I'm shining the light on the darkest places Putting the word out we have to face this now We have to face this now
Young And Depressed"
You’ve got so many problems No one else thinks you can solve them Where did the time go Everybody wants to know Life goes on day after day after day Too much work and no play
When life seems like it cant get any harder When you feel like a martyr When you’ve lost all control That's when you’ve let the whole world know
You’re young and depressed With no future in this loneliness You’re young and depressed But you’re pretty well dressed Yeah you’re pretty well dressed
I know that you’ve been hurting So much has led up to this Your eyes are burning Hard times make the heart agree That's all that you want is to follow your dreams They all fall apart at the seams
Discontentment turns to anger turning sour every lonely hour Yeah depression Failed relations turn over a new leaf will it be a four leaf clover? Yeah obsession yeah depression yeah
Heard That Sound"
Without a window to see through, I did my time, in here without you, Slept on the floor down in LBC, Meet me back home under the marquee
It seems like misery loves misery, My favorite songs they keep me company, So many memories come down to this, I maybe be lost but i'm not hopeless.
I heard that sound a mile away I heard that sound a mile away All those things i wish that i could say I heard that sound a mile away A mile away
Came in like static off the TV, This kinda thing never goes easy I meant to tell you but you were gone, I tried to get it right, i got it all wrong
I heard that sound a mile away I heard that sound a mile away All those things i wish that i could say I heard that sound a mile away A mile away
Sat outside the show, With nowhere else, nowhere else to go Doors shut, can't say It sure does sound, good to me
(Whoa oaaa) Na Na Na Na Na (Whoa oaaa) Outside the show...good to me (Whoa oa) Na Na Na Na Na Good to you...good to me
I heard that sound a mile away I heard that sound a mile away All those things i wish that i could say I heard that sound a mile away A mile away A mile away
Cold Streets"
I hear the cold streets calling me, (cold streets) I hear the cold streets calling me, I feel the dark dark swallow me, (dark dark) And now the black it colours me,
Whoa-oa-oa-oa Whoa-oa-oa-oa
I might push up screaming, 'Cause I don't feel so alive, This is one night why, I'm all alone tonight, And i'm still dreaming.
But when the cold streets fade away, (Cold streets) When will the sun come back again, And all the back streets and alley ways, (back streets) I see the cold streets night and day.
whoa-oa-oa-oa whoa-oa-oa-oa
I might push up screaming, Wake me up from dreaming, 'Cause I don't feel so alive, This is one night why, I'm all alone tonight, And im still dreaming, 'Cause I don't feel so alive, This is one night why, I'm all alone tonight, I'm not alone tonight.
Whoa-oa-oa Whoa-oa-oa (Whoa-oa-oa)
'Cause I don't feel so alive, This is one night why, I'm all alone tonight, And I'm still dreaming 'Cause I don't feel so alive, This is one night why, I'm all alone tonight, I'm all alone tonight.
The Story"
Can i get a new head? Cause the one i've got Is worn out and so very broken And now my mind feels dead It's like an arcade game An arcade game that won't take a token, no
We get lost Lost along the way It happens everyday Lost along the way
How will the story end? Where does the time go? How will the story end? All we really wanna know How will this life end? How will the story end? Where does the time go? How will the story end? All we really wanna know How will our lives end?
Can i get a new soul? The one i got's been trampled on The push and the pull Like a bottle of gin at Al Anon Can i get a new heart? The one i got works way too hard Like a prisoner of war That's come home bruised and scarred
We get lost Lost along the way It happens everyday Lost along the way
How will the story end? Where does the time go? How will the story end? All we really wanna know How will this life end? How will the story end? Where does the time go? How will the story end? All we really wanna know How will our lives end?
(woah) yesterday seems so long ago (woah) like a childhood dream, that shrank as you began to grow
How will the story end? Where does the time go? How will the story end? All we really wanna know How will this life end? How will the story end? Where does the time go? How will the story end? All we really wanna know How will our lives end?
Where's my voice? Has it lost it's way? As if we have a choice Our character is measured by the words we say It happens everyday Lost along the way Lost along the way
Wrecking Hotel Rooms" (feat. Mark Hoppus from Blink 182)
I wrecked your hotel room I crashed up the car Slept in the gutter I'm outside your door
Saw you through the key hole Down on your knees There's really no reason to call the police
Do you hold the phone when you're alone Imagine that it rings then hold it to your ear And wish that I was there to sing you off to sleep Be with you in your dreams for the days I will be gone I'll be there in your dreams and in this song
I know you don't know me 'Cause we've never met I'm not really crazy So don't get upset
I've got all these problems None with solutions Been in and out of some nice institutions
Do you hold the phone when you're alone Imagine that it rings then hold it to your ear And wish that I was there to sing you off to sleep Be with you in your dreams for the days I will be gone I'll be there in your dreams and in this song I'll be there in your dreams and in this song
Do you hold the phone when you're alone Imagine that it rings then hold it to your ear And wish that I was there to sing you off to sleep Be with you in your dreams for the days I will be gone I'll be there in your dreams and in this song I'll be there in your dreams and in this song I'll be there in your dreams and in this song I'll be there in your dreams and in this song I'll be there in your dreams and in this song
Late Again"
Late again, Forgive me friends, For I am late again, Til' the day I die, Lord knows I'll try, 'Cause I'm still late again.
When they call my name outside those gates, I'll be on my way, Well that's all I can say, 'Cause I'm late again.
Late again, Forgive me friends, For I am late again, Til' the day I die, Lord knows I'll try, 'Cause I'm still late again.
With all the saints, that don't place blame On sunshine, rain or snow, Believe me 'cause I know.
That I'm Late again, Forgive me friends, For I am late again, Til' the day I die, Lord knows I'll try, 'Cause I'm still late again
I was late coming into this world, Don't be late going out I was late trying to put this record out
Go.
Late again, Forgive me friends, For I am late again, Til' the day I die, Lord knows I'll try, 'Cause I'm still late again. [x2]
Til' the day I die, Lord knows I'll try, 'Cause I'm still late again.
Kicking And Screaming"
Lie to me just one more time and maybe, I'll believe you, Promise me the world and what you're saying now is true, You cant hold me down.
Kicking and screaming like a child, I'm out of control i'm running wild, Kicking and screaming and I want more, I've done things you cant ignore, So drag me around swing me out the door.
Stab me in the back i've grown accustomed to the feeling, Time is ticking slowly, I feel older, but i'm dealing You cant drown me out.
Kicking and screaming like a child, I'm out of control i'm running wild, Kicking and screaming and I want more, I've done things you cant ignore, So drag me around swing me out the door, Kicking and screaming.
Please don't marry me, Until you're sure im really dead, And don't complain to me, 'Cause you won't get my sympathy.
Kicking and screaming like a child, I'm out of control i'm running wild, Kicking and screaming and I want more, I've done things you cant ignore, So drag me around swing me out the door.
Kicking and screaming like a child, I'm out of control i'm running wild, Kicking and screaming and I want more, I've done things you cant ignore, So drag me around swing me out the door, Kicking and Screaming.
Grey Skies Turn Blue"
You say you want me to say "I'm sorry." But I don't have to and I don't want to say it 'Cause I'm not sorry
I play the game and I can't really say that I like it Can't really say that I hate it Can't really say that I paid attention
When grey skies turn blue I'll come back for you My mind can't change my heart there's nothing I can do
When grey skies turn blue When dreams do come true Will you be the way that I remember you
You say that life with me is driving you crazy But I don't see it and I don't want see So I, I must be crazy
I didn't mean a thing when I said "Nothing is fleeting." Or worth repeating (worth repeating) Or worth repeating (worth repeating)
When grey skies turn blue I'll come back for you My mind can't change my heart there's nothing I can do
When grey skies turn blue When dreams do come true Will you be the way that I remember you
The cold wind on my face Is the only thing I felt In such a long time In such a long time It's been a long time Yeah, yeah
Yeah
When grey skies turn blue I'll come back for you My mind can't change my heart there's nothing I can do
When grey skies turn blue When dreams do come true Will you be the way that I remember you
Will you be the way that I remember you
Emotional Anarchist"
Stack your bricks up to the sky, Name each one and throw them high, The trouble with trouble is it comes down fast, So watch out where you're goin' or you just won't last, (WOW-OH!!!)
[Chorus:] You're an emotional anarchist, You're pissed cause you've never been kissed, You're drowning in a sea of anarchy, With your heart above your patches and a faith in democracy.
Cover your eyes and block your ears, We've been lied to all these years, The trouble with trouble is you had a good time, You knew what you were doin' at the scene of the crime, (WOW-OH!!)
[Chorus]
Ashes To Ashes, We All Fall Down
[Chorus x2]
Call In Sick"
Oh how I missed you, Oh how I needed you today, Oh how I missed you, Oh how I needed you today,
'Cause life is like a waste of time, When you're not by my side, When you're not on this ride,
So pack your bags there's nothing to it, Call in sick and stay, With me everyday, Call in sick and run away.
Have you been dreaming? Have you been wondering the same? Oh how I missed you, Oh how I needed you today, It's never felt more to see your face, To wake up next to you, Inside your warm embrace.
So pack your bags there's nothing to it, Call in sick and stay, With me everyday, Call in sick and run away. Call in sick and be, On the run with me, Call in sick and run away, away, with me.
I've spent and I'm tired of getting bent, And I'm tired of always looking forward to a better day.
I've spent and I hate feeling so used And I hate my attitude, I've gone and lost and run away
(Call in sick and stay,With me everyday,Call in sick and run away.)
So pack your bags there's nothing to it, Call in sick and stay, With me everyday, Call in sick and run away. Call in sick and be, On the run with me, Call in sick and run away, away, with me. Runaway with me.
Get Me Out"
Get Me Out I don't wanna move, I just wanna lay here Shacky hands, sweaty sheets, can't get my mind in gear My legs went numb 3hours ago Blank starw, don't care what you think you know Get me out! I'm feeling around, alone in the dark Can't find the switch, all I need is a spark or a match To find a way out, just a silver of light I'll crawl and I'll fight and I'll scratch and I'll bite Get me out!
Waiting For The World To End"
Drawing closer, end of days, with much still left undone Even as i turn this phrase, the end has now begun History is history, tomorrow never comes Today's the only day we have, and now that day is done
Waiting for the world to end Searching for the signs, devastation right on time Waiting for the world to end Ignoring what's been said, blind to rivers running red The doc did what he could, but we've lost to much blood
Large staring eyes that love surprises The silence before sunrise, when you've paid the highest prices It's too late to open your eyes History is history, tomorrow never comes Today's the only day we have, and now that day is done
The blood in my veins burning aflame [repeat]
All creation will collide then begin again
This Weekend"
This weekend, we'll have a ball, We'll hit the town and see it all, So let's go out on Friday night, We'll go see a show, or get in a fight.
So hold on tightly to me, We're going for a ride, In the sound (In the sound) of the stereo, Let the rhythm (Let the rhythm), Let it take control of you, 'Cause you ain't got nothing to lose.
It's nice enough for the drive-in, Watching movies with my friends, Or times are good, and times are bad, But these are the best times that I've ever had.
So hold on tightly to me, We're going for a ride, In the sound (In the sound) of the stereo, Let the rhythm (Let the rhythm), Let it take control of you, Don't say this isn't happening, 'Cause you ain't got nothing to lose.
One of these days I'll be out of your way, And you can rest your head... One of these days I'll be out of your way, and leave my weds unsaid.
Don't let, Don't let, Don't let go , Of the sound (of the sound), Coming out your stereo, Let the rhythm (Let the rhythm) Let it take control of you, Don't say this isn't happening, 'Cause this is your weekend, 'Cause you ain't got nothing to lose.
Arrest Me"
I feel like I'm lost and there's no going back, To the place where I know I belong. I’ve changed through the years like we all knew we would, And now wonder if this change has been good.
Falling faster all the time, stepping further passed that line. If all the air has left the room, slowly sinking in this tomb.
Arrest me, control me, don't act like you don't know me. Stepping out or stepping in, ready to begin again.
Saw the wake yet there's a haze over my eyes. This will be a hard one to disguise. I start the day in focus, but it ends up blurred. Like a Romesque language, I can't read a word.
Falling faster all the time, stepping further passed that line. If all the air has left the room, slowly sinking in this tomb.
Arrest me, control me, don't act like you don't know me. Stepping out or stepping in, ready to begin again. And I'll be your patient, a product of environment. Truth can be so hard to see when the heart and mind is warm and free.
I feel like I'm lost and there's no going back, To the place where I know I belong. I’ve changed through the years like we all knew we would, And now wonder if this change has been good.
Broken Hearts Disease"
I admit it I'm a jerk and I'm taking all the blame. I'll take it like a man, I'll run into the flames. I ask, I plead, I beg, I need.
Don't let me die of broken hearts disease. Don't let me down, I'm begging darling please.
Nothing's ever worth all the pain I always cause. I do the dumbest things then try to win back your applause. I plead, I cry, You said goodbye.
Don't let me die of broken hearts disease. Don't let me down, I'm begging darling please.
Here lies my legacy, all my hopes and dreams, for everyone to see. Here lies my defeated heart, fighting this disease, for everyone to see. For everyone to see.
I admit it I'm a jerk and I've ruined both our lives. Now I spend my days trying to analyze, Where I went wrong and wrote this song.
Don't let me die of broken hearts disease. Don't let me down, I'm begging darling please.
Don't make me cry, I'm down here on my knees. Don't let me die of broken hearts disease.
