Good Enough

I’ve been there before
i’ll be there again
i gave you my heart
you gave me apen
though i long to be fair
and shwo you what’s true
it’s just a mtter of time
til i lose you
good enough to be your boy
you’re good enough to be my girl
no matter what move i emply
i’ll end up broken-hearted still
i want to go out
but there’s a clawing within
will i heed the past
and let the darkness win
thought i long to be fair
and show you what’s true
it’ls just a matter of time
til i lose you
good enough to be your boy
you’re good enough to be my girl
no matter what move i emply
i’ll end up broken-hearted still
oh oh oh…
i’ll end up broken-hearted still
good enough to be your boy
you’re good enough to be my girl
no matter what move i emply
i’ll end up broken-hearted still, oh

Gettaway

She flew in on a jumbo jet
from ohio to LAX
things went from bad to worse
when she told me
she’s enjoyed not having sex
darling it’s ok
if you don’t want to play
but why the hell did you come
all this way
just to push me away
gettaway
i was doin’ it all for you
with no money in the bank
and no job too
i was just about
to lose my lunch
you put down a cool hundred
for a pair of shoes
girl i have to say
so put that book away
and tell me
why the hell did you come all this way
just to push me away
gettaway

Take the Weight Off

mommy it hurts
need you touch
to take the weight off
daddy i’m broke
need your funds
to get me through this
i need a drink
maybe that’ll
take the weight off
doctor i’m sad
psych degree
can take the weight off
love takes too long
but the sex
will get me through this
christ as a crutch
maybe that’ll
take the weight off
mommy i’m sad
need your touch to
take the weight off
daddy i’m broke
need your funds
get me through this
sis fucks in cars
thinks that’ll
take the weight off
brother is dead
cause he couldn’t
take the weight off
you once shared your heart
thought the trust could
take the weight off
time is so strong
and the numbness
gets you through this
six billion souls
but no one to take the weight off

Shuffle my Feet

and i would like
to tell you waht’s true
but what’s the point
i can’t get to you
and i cannot get a date
’cause you know me
i’ll be late
i shuffle my feet
to the beat on the city street
and i don’t wanna
lay you a line
i haven’t had a motor
in quite some time
materials are rubbish
and since i’ve grown
the less i have
the more i own
i shuffle my feet
to the beat on the city street
don’t get in my way
i gotta deadline to meet
don’t ask me for change
i barely eat
nothing stops me
once my feet hit the concrete
shuffle my feet
shuffly my feet to the beat
on the city street
boy
don’t get in my way
I gotta deadline to meet
don’t ask me for change
I barely eat
nothing stops me once my feet
hit the concrete

White Flag

stuck in school
learning the rules
we’ll find out just who we are
what if teacher tells us lies that we believe
graduate
clean the slate
they had no clue just who we were
what if the teacher told us lies that we believe
as another dreaded autumn sheds it’s leaves
fighting words
say i failed
wounds will heal
exhale
time’s a ship on water
innocence will lessen as you sail
you sail
what if teacher told us lies that we believe
as another dreaded autumn sheds it’s leaves
and what if happiness is solar systems away
then i might as well just wave the white flag

Soleil

I was only 17
when I got my heart ripped clean
I was just a baby then
love’s so confusing
the scenes are amusing
I have to express how I feel
I was only 17
when I got my heart ripped clean
how can i forgive you that
love’s so confusing
the scenes are amusing
I have to express how I feel
one thing I know is true
I’ll never replace you
a memory I rewind and play

Lead Not Follow

you and me
swim upstream
against the flow we go
like salmon swim
to mountain tops
it’s the only thing we know
neon lights
and big city streets
along in you grows
we drag the brush
as time goes on
winding trails of blue
for those to see
the paths we took
to make a dream come true
neon lights
and these city streets
your presence overdue
we lead not follow
and that’s hard to do
when no one follows you
with nothing new
we will pretend
invent our world again
the neon lights
how they shined for you
they’ll shine for others too
we lead not follow
and the aim was true
and so they followed you
they followed you

Poison June

pictures of you I adore
strewn across the bedroom floors
your letters chronological
heartbeat away from trigger pull
is it true what they speak of
you don’t quite ever get over
your first love
a stack of records ten feet high
a thousand songs to make me cry
under covers
close the door
I won’t be coming out no more
is it true what they speak of
you don’t quite ever get over
your first love
alcohol and concert hall
consume that poison june
alcohol and concert hall
consume that poison june
it’s been roughly seven days
since i’ve seen the suns warm rays
mommy’s worried, daddy’s bored
friends slip notes beneath the door
sad but true the fact remains
the static’s driving me insane
burn these photos, clean the mess
i’ll off her boy to relieve some stress
is it true what they speak of
you don’t quite ever get over
your first love
alcohol and concert hall
consume that poison june
alcohol and concert hall
consume that poison june
alcohol and concert hall
consume that poison june
poison me
poison you
alcohol and concert hall
consume that poison june
alcohol and concert hall
consume that poison june
pictures of you i adore
strewn across the bedroom floor
your letters chronological
heartbeat away from trigger pull
is it true what they speak of
you don’t quite ever get over
is it true that they speak of
you don’t quite ever get over
your first love?

Strangers

here come the critics oh
to tear your heart wide open
here come the lawyers
billions for phone conversation
you got some talent kid
you’re really going places
i’ve heard it so many times
from all the empty faces
don’t talk to strangers
don’t talk to strangers
don’t talk to strangers, oh no
my mona lisa
early on a sunday morning
i find you so incredibly boring
you got some talent kid
you’re really going places
i’ve heard it so many times
from all you pretty faces
don’t talk to strangers
don’t talk to strangers
and you all look so strange to me
here come the critics oh
to tear your heart wide open
here come the lawyers
billions for phone conversation
you got some talent kid
you’re really going places
i’ve heard it so many times
from all the empty faces
don’t talk to strangers
don’t talk to strangers
don’t talk to strangers
and you all look so strange to me

Love Goes a Long Way (2003)

It makes you crazy.
It makes you mad.
When you lose it,
how it makes you sad.
It drags you down.
It gives you wings.
It’s the knot in your stomach that stings.
I think I made a big mistake.
One girl, one night,
it felt so fake.
It wouldn’t last a year or a month or a day.
Love goes a long way.
It goes a long way.
Love goes a long way.
It goes a long way.
It takes you in.
It throws you away.
It gives meaning to your empty days.
One day you’re sure,
the next you doubt.
Don’t bother trying to figure it out.
I think I made a big mistake.
One girl, one night,
it felt so fake.
You can’t always fix what you break.
Love goes a long way.
Love goes a long way.
It goes a long way.
Love goes a long way.
It goes a long way.
It makes you crazy.
It makes you mad.
When you lose it,
how it makes you sad.
It drags you down.
It gives you wings.
It’s the knot in your stomach that stings.
I think I made a big mistake.
One girl, one night,
It felt so fake.
You can’t always fix what you break.
I think I made a big mistake.
‘Cause it wouldn’t last a year or a month or a day.
Love goes a long way.

Delete Lola

it was the signs
on your face
that I never could see
it was the fact
I forgot
some kind of anniversary
At the phone
you would wait
but I never would call
it’s the thought
that never counted
cause there’s no thought at all
Distress codes sent
for a rescue to
relieve me of the boredom
that I’m feeling with you
in a daydream I’d compute
the first day we would meet
and simply press delete
Because I just don’t care
so give it a break
I just don’t care
so I made a mistake
I just don’t care
and there’s one thing to do
it’s true
I need to get rid of you
no matter what I try
I never get through
my random acts of kindness
you’d just misconstrue
I guess it comes down
to a lack of trust
a heart that used to work
has since been covered with dust
in the shadows of the year
you know I never could tell
if I had feelings for you
or I was under some spell
and now the only kiss I can justify
is a kiss goodbye
because I just don’t care
so give it a break
I just don’t care
so I made a mistake
I just don’t care
and there’s one thing to do
it’s true
I need to get rid of you

Please

Desensitized
the young will grow to
not feel much of anything
and we just don’t seem to care
Dollar signs
we need more footage
cash in on the tragedy
why aid in the repair
Please promise me today
that when it’s through you’ll feel
oh oh oh oh oh feel oh oh oh oh oh
Please promise me today
that when it’s through you’ll feel
oh oh oh oh oh oh
Please. Please oh. Please yadadadadadaye
Movie camera
strike a pose
we must have something special
look they’re dying on their knees
I’ll give you my heart
then you can
sell it for the revolution
and ride that bitch for free
Please promise me today
that you will stop and feel
oh oh oh oh oh feel oh oh oh oh oh
please promise me today
that you will stop and feel
oh oh oh oh oh oh shout it out
Please. Please oh. Please yadadadadadaye
Please promise me today
that you will stop and feel
oh oh oh oh oh feel oh oh oh oh oh
please promise me today
that you will stop and feel
ohhhhhhh feel feel
Please. Please oh. Please yadadadadadaye

Block out the World

There’s a class of information between my ears
I’ll shut my eyes in hopes it disappears
Jammin’ ideas down my throat
So I swallow the belief that we’re on
Some secret roads
So I block out the world
With headphones on
It’s the only thing I can do when I don’t wanna talk to no one
Block out the world
With headphones on
It’s my only escape
I’m losing you in trust but I can’t help but feel
That what you say is not, it’s not what’s real
I wanna feel the case but the facts aren’t straight
And if I think you’re guilty, I won’t participate
So I’ll block out the world
With headphones on
It’s the only thing I can do when I don’t wanna talk to no one
Block out the world
With headphones on
It’s my only escape
I’ll block out the world
With headphones on
It’s the only thing that works when I don’t wanna talk to no one
Block out the world
With headphones on
‘Cause I don’t understand
Block out the radio
Block out the TV show
Block out these visions that trouble me so
I feel sick again
My blood is running thin
Digesting too much of your negative information
Block out the world!
Block out the world!
Block out the world!
Block out the world
With headphones on
It’s the only thing I can do when I don’t wanna talk to no one
Block out the world
With headphones on
It’s my only escape
Block out the world
With headphones on
It’s the only thing that works when I don’t wanna talk to no one
Block out the world
With headphones on
‘Cause I don’t understand
And what would happen if we all stopped buyin’
And to the fear that the selling is weak
These losers scratch their heads in confusion
This is how the strong become the meek
Block out the world!
Block out the world!
Block out the world!

Love Goes a Long Way

It makes you crazy.
It makes you mad.
When you lose it,
You feel you’ve been had
It drags you down.
It gives you wings.
It’s the knot in your stomach that stings.
I think I made a big mistake.
A tragedy, my heart can’t take
One girl, one night,
it felt so fake.
It wouldn’t last a year or a month or a day.
Love goes a long way.
It goes a long way.
Love goes a long way.
It goes a long way.
It takes you in.
It throws you away.
It gives meaning to your empty days.
One day you’re sure,
the next you doubt.
Don’t bother trying to figure it out.
I think I made a big mistake.
A tragedy, my heart can’t take
One girl, one night,
it felt so fake.
You can’t always fix what you break.
Love goes a long way.
Love goes a long way.
It goes a long way.
Love goes a long way.
It goes a long way.

It drags you down.
It gives you wings.
It’s the knot in your stomach that stings.

That was not Me

Honey I like to keep it far and tucked away
Like a debt to my heart that I refuse to pay
Cause who I was is now impossible to recognize
I’m feeling up but my past has cut me down to size
So please remember that was not me
All the faces of the characters that I could play
Seem less and less emphatic to me every day
Looking back there doesn’t seem to be an answer why
maybe I found some affirmation in an old lie
So please remember that was not me
Balancing blades over love and you are bound to slip
Now there’s caution tape that’s wrapped around my hearts and lips
I been working my will to the bone and it takes all my time
Drawing myself into you and not a chalk outline
So please remember that was not me
That was not me …

Release (the Neck of Love)

Please don’t be fooled by lovers
All I’ve got is time
To mend just what you needed
Stand on your feet for something
All you need is there
Why can’t you see
It will end today
Just walk away
Release me! Release me!
Let it go
Get your hands from around the neck of love
Me, I was quick to tell you
There’s nothing left inside
I found what I needed
Slow, not too fast I’ll show you
But all we do is scream for something more
It will end today
I walk away
Release me! Release me!
Let it go
Get your hands from around the neck of love
Release me! Release me!
Let it flow
Get your hands from around the neck of love
I was the liar who never gave up
An empty promise filled your cup
There is everything and nothing more to say
It will end today
I walk away
Release me! Release me!

Kiss that Life Away

Don’t be fooled by love
It will take some time
Before you’re feeling good
You might just lose your mind
And I did what I did and I said what I said
But those days are long and dead
Kiss that life away
Kiss that life away
Kiss that life away
Before you lose control
Kiss that life away
Only a fool would stay
Kiss that life away
Before you lose it all
You can run all day
But you won’t fall in line
Doctor’s got you feeling good
Now I’m working so hard to get back to zero
Finding a place of my own
And I did what I did and I said what I said
But those days are long and dead
Kiss that life away
Kiss that life away
Kiss that life away
Before you lose control
Kiss that life away
Only a fool would stay
Kiss that life away
Before you lose it all
There is time and you will see
I can feel love inside me
au revoir to the shadows on the wall
they don’t bother me at all
I lean in to

Place to Go

All we need is a place to go
And step by step we can take it slow
I keep having dreams of you
There’s nothing i can do
We just keep laughing and loving
And I think to myself … I’ll never wake up again
I can’t help but feel this way
gets stronger everyday
I hold your hips to the tango
Then i wake up screamin’ … Where is my lover again?
All we need is a place to go
Step by step we can take it slow
I never meant to treat you bad
Honey i felt so sad
Like a black hole was sucking love from my body baby
I was nobody’s friend
Now that i’ve been feeling good
My dreams suggest we should
But i know you and you’d probabley knee me in the cut
And this bloody silence would end
All we need is a place to go
Step by step we can take it slow
All i need is for you to see
I feel for you do you feel for me?
And every single night that i see your face
It makes me think of times when you and me were good
Lovin each other like we should
All we need is a place to go
Step by step we can take it slow
All i need is for you see
I feel for you do you feel for me?
All we need is a place to go
All I need is to let you know

Save Me

Sometimes I feel I'm the walking dead.
I'm consuming but dont feel fed
Just a series of empty tragedies.
I'm sick of thinking of tomorrow
And always having to beg or borrow
I need someone to put my mind at ease.

Save me, wont you save me?
Cause I've never felt so strong,
like the way I feel with you.
You could save me.

If the moon didn't have the sun
she would never impress no one.
She'd hang her head and sink into the sea.
Sometimes I feel like it's just too much.
So I reach out for the cure of your touch.
I faint out (?) and my heart begins to beat.

Save me, wont you save me?
Cause I've never felt so strong,
like the way I feel with you.
You could save me.

Save me. Wont you save me?
Cause I've never felt so strong,
like the way I feel with you.
You could save me.
Oh you could save me.
Oh.

Murder by numbers (Police cover)

Once that you've decided on a killing
First you make a stone of your heart
And if you find that your hands are still willing
Then you can turn a murder into art

There really isn't any need for bloodshed
Just do it with a little more finesse
If you can slip a tablet into someone's coffee
Then it avoids an awful lot of mess

Because it's murder by numbers
One, two, three
It's as easy to learn
As your ABC
It's murder by numbers
One, two, three
It's as easy to learn
As your ABC

Now if you have a taste for this experience
And you're flushed with your very first success
Then you must try a twosome or a threesome
And you'll find your conscience bothers you much less

Because murder is like anything you take to
It's a habit-forming need for more and more
You can bump off every member of your family
And anybody else you find a bore

Because it's murder by numbers
One, two, three
It's as easy to learn
As your ABC
It's murder by numbers
One, two, three
It's as easy to learn
As your ABC

Now you can join the ranks of the illustrious
In history's great dark hall of fame
All our greatest killers were industrious
At least the ones that we all know by name

But you can reach the top of your profession
If you become the leader of the land
For murder is the sport of the elected
And you don't need to lift a finger of your hand

Because it's murder by numbers
One, two, three
It's as easy to learn
As your ABC
It's murder by numbers
One, two, three
It's as easy to learn
As your ABCDE

One, two, three
ABC
One, two, three
ABC
One, two, three
ABC

It's murder by numbers
One, two, three
It's as easy to learn
As your ABC
It's murder by numbers
One, two, three
It's as easy to learn
As your ABCDE
