. . .


She said, "It's just like Hollywood,
And I'm afraid;
Because the boy forgets the girl
While she sits at home and waits.
But you promised me you won't.
And you've never lied, so please don't

If you want LA, the go to LA.
Despite the miles between us,
My heart will never change
Because you're all that it beats for,
And when you walk back through that door.

I'm not saying that I don't believe.
I'm exactly where I want to be...
Don't you take that from me.
Nooooooooo

You know I still get lost in your eyes?
With your lips and your kiss and your hand in mine,
You're all that I need,
And I promise I'll sleep fine tonight
Just knowing you're here by my side.
Don't give this up.
Don't give this up

I'm not saying that I don't believe.
I'm exactly where I want to be...
Don't you take that from me.
Nooooooooo

You keep on running.
You're running away.
I'll be here waiting
Wishing you could stay,
But I'll just remember the promise that you made.
I'll keep on fighting,
I'm fighting for you.
I swear I would give you the son and the moon
If you just remember the promise you made.

OOOOOOOOOOOO!
OOOOOOOOOOOO!
OOOOOOOOOOOO!

I'm not saying that I don't believe.
(OOOOOOOOOOO!)
I'm exactly where I want to be...
(OOOOOOOOOOO!)
Don't you take that from me.
Nooooooooo

I'm not saying that I don't believe.
(OOOOOOOOOOO!)
I'm exactly where I want to be...
(OOOOOOOOOOO!)
Don't you take that from me.
Nooooooooo

OOOOOOOOOO!
OOOOOOOOOO!
OOOOOOOOOO!

. . .


You turn it around.
There's something safe in the way you say,
You don't like the sound of that again.
I could be wrong, but there's a chance this little dance,
It won't last too long again.
All you are is all I need.

Call me when you wake up.
And I will be the one to bring you home again,
I'll bring you home again.
And I always tried to see the best in you
though I see the other side
I see the other side.

I watched you fall.
Now I'm afraid that there's just no time left at all.
We're both run aways, we made some big mistakes.
And I just wanna fix this ... I wanna fix this now.
Can we fix this now?
All you are is all I need.
And all you want is all you'll be.

Call me when you wake up.
And I will be the one to bring you home again,
I'll bring you home again.
And I always tried to see the best in you,
Though I see the other side.
I see the other side.

This isn't what you said I'd become.
When I left everything where it was.
But, I'm still hanging on to belief that you're gonna change.
You're gonna change your ways.
Can you change your ways?

Before it's too late I wanna forgive you.
Before it's too late I wanna forgive you.
Before it's too late, before it's too late.
But it's too late... what if it gets too late?

Call me when you wake up.
And I will be the one to bring you home again,
I'll bring you home again.
And I always tried to see the best in you.
Though I see the other side.
I tried, I tried and I tried.
Though I see the other side.

. . .


I've scribbled out my view on faith
And waiting till timings right
I've sat and pondered and missed for days and days and nights and nights and nights
I've never been the best with lines
I've got 17 pantomimes
That give away the words I say and nothing that you should believe....

And all we are
Is a bittersweet sundown
A little bit love and a little bit letdown
I can't keep you around
I can't keep you around
In this bittersweet sundown

I've had a lot of time to think
About where this all went south
I wanted you less and less until noon and dawn and night We're all sold out
You can tell me we"ll be just fine
Quentin says you got 20 pantomimes
That give away my first mistake of not convincing you to believe....

That all we are
Is a bittersweet sundown
A little bit love and a little bit letdown
I can't keep you around
I can't keep you around
In this bittersweet sundown

Trust me when I say
You would make all the same mistake
And every promise would be made afraid
You would make all the same mistake
You admit you could get away
I let you get away

And all we are
Is a bittersweet sundown
You gave me every bit of your heart
And I'm the one that let you down
I can't keep you around
I can't keep you around
In this bittersweet sundown

When the bittersweet sundown
When the bittersweet memory now

. . .


(Verse 1)
Change your ways, for them
(It's all part of the game we play)
Fight for what you could never ever win
(Take a number) welcome to LA
This is where it's led, I think about
The ways, the means, the in-betweens
I've really lost my head, I think about
The exit plan, where does this end?
(Better keep your head down)

(Chorus)
My life is a warzone
Torn between whats right and wrong
My life is a warzone
There's now way out I'm gonna end up hurting someone

(Verse 2)
Creep around on the egg shells, down at the start
Don't know how I'm gonna make it today
Frustrated and losing myself in the part
Now the white coats come to put me away
Hanging by a thread I live without
Time for whats real, these moments I must steal
I pick through whats left, I live without
Letting pain I feel have the chance to heal
(Better keep your head down)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
I'm waiting for better days
These hard times won't go away
I still haven't found my way
Where there's nothing left to leave behind
I won't give you what is mine
I'll be fine
(Better keep your head down)

(Chorus x2)

. . .


Feels like the walls are closing in on me
I'm suffocating, I can barely breathe
And you've got me right where you want me
This is a side of you I've never seen
You're not the girl that you used to be
And you've got me right where you want me

You always know how to bring me down
Let's just face it now
I'm never changing

You are my world
My everything
You stupid girl
Gonna be the death of me
So let me go
Just let me be
You stupid girl
Love the way you're killing me
(You're killing me)
You stupid girl

You're like an angel but with broken wings
A heart so cold could never show mercy
And you've got me right where you want me

You are my world
My everything
You stupid girl
Gonna be the death of me
So let me go
Just let me be
You stupid girl
Love the way you're killing me
(You're killing me)
You stupid girl
(You're killing me)
You stupid girl

I know I'm a bastard
But I'm not a coward
(But can't you see what you're doing to me)
I'm falling faster
More every hour
(Why can't you see what you're doing to me)
Open your eyes
Open your eyes
This is killing me

You are my world
My everything
You stupid girl
Gonna be the death of me
So let me go
Just let me be
You stupid girl
Love the way you're killing me
(You're killing me)
You stupid girl
(You're killing me)
You stupid girl

. . .


Who's to say there's a way this has to end?
We're writing our own rules
Who's to blame?
Give me names and what they said.
Oh how could they hurt you?
And when you crumble away under pressure...
You need to borrow my strength and I'll let ya.
It's getting heavier hold, hold it steadier.
I see...

Life is throwing you curves.
You can make it
Take it in, try again, you don't deserve this
I just wanna save you.
You can take it on the chin.
Try again.
You'll make it...
You don't have to carry the weight of the world.
You don't have to carry the weight of the world.

Separate what you hate from what you love.
Once and for all...
And if you tumble my way I can catch ya.
If you follow my lead,
And I'll bet ya its feeling heavier.
Hold, hold it steadier.
I see...

Life is throwing you curves.
You can make it.
Take it in, try again, you don't deserve this.
I just wanna save you.
You can take it on the chin.
Try again.
You'll make it...
You don't have to carry the weight of the world.
You don't have to carry the weight of the world.

Life is throwing you curves.
You can make it.
Take it in, try again, you don't deserve this.
I just wanna save you.
You can take it on the chin.
Try again.
You'll make it...
You don't have to carry the weight of the world.
Don't have to... carry the weight...
You don't have to carry the weight of the world.
Carry the weight of the world.

Who's to say there's a way this has to end?

you're a diamond
how I found you I still don't know
but now I've got you and I'll never let you go
if your heart's a pocket looking for some change,
my heart makes lots of sense
just stay quiet, breathe deep,breathe out, breathe slow
don't say a word,
let our eyes speak,
and they will tell you

(chorus)
i'm a fool with dreams, and not a lot of things
i swear that i will be all you need, don't give up on me
give me one more day, don't give this all away
we'll be fine you'll see just don't give up on me

I'd be lying if i said that im nor terrified
but how the hell can i do as they say and take this all in stride?
does this come with an instruction book?
if so, i need to have a look
just stay quiet, breathe deep,breathe out, breathe slow
don't say a word,
let our eyes speak,
and they will tell you

(chorus)
i'm a fool with dreams, and not a lot of things i swear that i will be all you need, don't give up on me give me one more day, don't give this all away we'll be fine you'll see just don't give up on me

i know you're scared inside, but baby so am i
it gets so hard to hide
im not going nowhere,
im not going nowhere

(chorus)
i'm a fool with dreams, and not a lot of things i swear that i will be all you need, don't give up on me give me one more day, don't give this all away we'll be fine you'll see just don't give up on me

i'm a fool with dreams, and not a lot of things i swear that i will be all you need, don't give up on me give me one more day, don't give this all away we'll be fine you'll see just don't give up on me

don't give up

. . .


Is this really open to discuss?
Maybe we should just hang it up
We were so close...they said we were so far
We swore by now we'd have them wow'd
But we're still stuck in this race
With hopes and dreams a ton
When did we stop having fun?
We got lost somewhere they're not and

Do you remember when we said it would never end?
We walk back down, this time around
Stop where you are and wish little things couldn't kill this
Count down from ten, and we could be back to go again

Maybe we started phoning it in
But then again the numbers wouldn't quite make sense
They don't lie, give me 10,000 eyes
This isn't a song about candy, but we're still suckers the same
We fell for your lies each and everytime
We got lost somewhere they're not and

Do you remember when we said it would never end?
We walk back down, this time around
Stop where you are and wish little things couldn't kill this Count down from ten, and we could be back to go again

Time is like a bullet-train running off the tracks
And it's never coming back
So let's grab this while we can
It's all in our hands
Do you remember when?
Do you remember when...and

Do you remember when we said it would never end?
We walk back down, this time around
Stop where you are and wish little things couldn't kill this Count down from ten, and we could be back to go again

. . .


Just a panic I can't get straight
I know this is under my control
It's apparent you got here late
But it's not too late if you wanna
Go on a trip to find out what is real
And now what they told you to feel
Oh my god

Don't look so low
You're starting to drag me under
Don't let them know
Or you're gonna blow our cover
Livin' so divine
Opens up your mind
Buy the ticket, take the ride

Lights are louder than words you speak
Relax it's all part of the show
You haven't even started to peak
That's when you'll really
Go on a trip to find out what is real
And now what they told you to feel
Oh my god

Don't look so low
You're starting to drag me under
Don't let them know
Or you're gonna blow our cover
Livin' so divine
Opens up your mind
Buy the ticket, take the ride

I just wanna tell you
But I just can't say a word

Oh my god

Don't look so low
You're starting to drag me under
Don't let them know
Or you're gonna blow our cover
Livin' so divine
Opens up your mind
Buy the ticket, take the ride
Take the ride

. . .


If you're still up for chasing dreams
I've got a bottle, two glasses and a backseat.
And a lot of things to resolve
If you've got the time at all

I'm not one to be much different
Than who I really am
I lived my life for way too long
Trying to please everyone else.
Sometimes I should probably
Just bite my goddamn tongue
Will I've said too much a few times
But how much is enough

For you
'cause I don't want to lose you

I was thinking about telling you
I was in love
I was in love with you

No palace of words will make this better
If there's deceit in every letter
You came to me with hope for a future
And I came to you with a waiting line

For you
'cause I don't want to lose you

I was thinking about telling you
I was in love
I was in love with you
With you
With you
I'm in love with you

. . .


No use taking off your clothes, we won't be going there tonight
You were kind enough to say hello, I figured I could still say goodbye the way, I was thinking about telling you that I was in love with her, I'm still in love with her.
Oh, Oh, Oh...Look at this web I wove

{Chorus}
So take this photograph
And I'll take this empty frame
I won't be coming but you're not the one to blame
The chemistry between, liars like you and me, ignites like gasoline

Wait, Wait, Wait
Let me set the record straight
I was never really yours in the first place
Oh, Oh, Oh...Look at this web I wove, I told you I would break your heart.

{Chorus}
So take this photograph
And I'll take this empty frame
I won't be coming but you're not the one to blame
The chemistry between, liars like you and me, ignites like gasoline

Explosions all around me
There's no place I'd rather be than home with her beside me, I'm home, Take me home again

Is this where you thought I'd be
How's this for your spotlight
I thought you said something about me
Well you better get your facts right

{Chorus}
So take this photograph
And I'll take this empty frame
I won't be coming but you're not the one to blame
The chemistry between, liars like you and me, ignites like gasoline

. . .


I was all smiles
When I signed on the dotted line
And after these thousands of miles
I don't know what in life is mine
And what's been taking from me
There's so much I could say
But I don't know where to start
Where to start, where to start

I took the bullet and I never thought twice.
I'm always the coolest when there's money in their eyes

Let's burn down this angel town
Let's burn Hollywood to the ground

Cynics all around
They wear masks I wanna see
They make audible sounds
But never say anything
How can I give you my life
If there's nowhere left to go

When it's over I took the bullet, took the heat, I took the fall
I guess I was foolish to believe after all

Let's burn down this angel town
Let's burn Hollywood to the ground
They took all my dreams and all of my things
My family counted on me
And I can't let them down
Let them down

Let's burn Hollywood
'Cause Hollywood, Hollywood lied
Let's burn down this angel town
Let's burn Hollywood to the ground
They took all my dreams and all of my things
My family counted on my
And let everyone down
I let you down

Let's burn down Hollywood
'Cause Hollywood, Hollywood lied
