They say something I don't wanna hear
Ringin' like a shotgun in my ear
But they don't know what I'm really aimin' for
Gonna leave a mark on society
[BRIDGE:]
Faster and faster my whole situation
Fallin' apart, crossin' my heart
And I hope to live
But something has to give
[CHORUS:]
'Cuz I just wanna be something
I just wanna be someone
Someone who stands out in the crowd
Mother would be proud
Something to someone
These days gettin' shorter by the year
Tickin' like a time bomb loud and clear
[BRIDGE 2:]
Faster and faster the whole situation
Fallin' apart, straight from the heart
Then I sing my song
And I'll prove them wrong
[CHORUS]
[guitar solo]
[BRIDGE 3:]
Faster and faster my own situation
Rollin' along, provin' you wrong
And you can't believe
What you see when you're lookin' at me...
[CHORUS x 2]

I don't wanna be an asshole anymore
Sick and tired of all the promises that I make to you
And I break to you
And I know you think you've heard it all before
Something tells me that you think I'm stupid when I say to you
That what I say is true
Too much lyin', too little tryin'
[CHORUS:]
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again
Well I don't wanna be redundant anymore
Skippin' like a broken record you can play again
But I'll do it all again
Put it behind me, then you rewind me
[CHORUS]
[guitar solo]
Once again
I must have been
Tryin' to wash away the sin
Cuz I wake up
Bathroom floor
I won't do this anymore
...starting tomorrow
. . .

She calls me up
Says she's comin' over
So I run home
(oooh-ooh)
Just to wait around
She calls me names
Then we play some mind games
And I don't know
(oooh-ooh)
But I think I like it
Now she's the only one
Who blocks my number
And she's the only one call
[CHORUS:]
(Yeah, oh yeah)
What's wrong with me?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
I'm so addicted to you...and you're such a dick to me
She flies me out
Got a big surprise planned
In Chicago
(oooh-ooh)
That's my kinda town
She says she's been a ho
Had to let me know
On the Jerry Springer Show
[CHORUS]
[guitar solo]
I wrap myself
Around her little finger
And she gives me the middle one
[CHORUS]
She calls and I come runnin' back
I call, she never calls me back
What's wrong with me
. . .

You kiss me on the way up
Kick me when I fall down
Under the radar
Stick me in the lost and found
Lipstick and bruises
Up and down
[CHORUS:]
This is what you always wanted
It's what you asked for
This is what you always wanted
And now you want more
Now these are all your new friends
Baby, you're a rock star now
Runnin' with the devil
Kiss me when the lights go down
Lipstick and bruises
Up and down
[CHORUS]
[guitar solo]
Kiss me when the lights go down
Lipstick and bruises
Up and down
This is what you always wanted
It's what you asked for
This is what you always wanted
And now you want more
And now you want more
And now you want more
It's what you wanted
It's what you needed

I hit the city by 3
And the bottle by 4
I'm thinkin about the shit that I pulled the night before
And by the party at midnight everything is cool again
Cuz you'll be back with me then
I'm carryin the weight
The weight of the world
That doesn't wanna wait for me
It spins me all around
And then it spits me out
Recycled like a Christmas tree
You picked me up when no one would
Convince me baby its all good
You're doing it again the way you always could
And now everything is understood
I never had a girl like this
I hit the city by 3
And the bottle by 4
Im thinkin about the shit that I pulled the night before
And by the party at midnight everything is cool again
Cuz you'll be back with me then
the walls are closing in its closing time again
I see it through my champagne glasses
Terrified of how the time is flyin now
At least we're sittin in first class
Never wanna be like them
I hit the city by 3
And the bottle by 4
I'm thinkin about the shit that I pulled the night before
And by the party at midnight everything is cool again
Cuz you'll be back with me then
I'm carryin the weight of the world
That doesnt wanna wait for me
I'm carryin the weight of the world
Your carrying me
I never had a girl like this
I hit the bottle by 6 and another cigarette
Are probably 2 things that I know i should be quittin
Any by the party at midnight everything is cool by then
. . .

It's just another reason why
It all comes down to you and I
Just have another drink
Waste some time with me
We're happy in the meantime
I've gotta make up for losin' time
Cuz I've been spinnin' my wheels all night
And I can't wait
Can't hardly wait to see you
Things seem better off now
I think I'm better off now
[CHORUS:]
It's just another reason why
It all comes down to you and I
Just have another drink
Waste some time with me
We're happy in the meantime
I guess the rain's gonna follow me
Cuz it's been droppin' in ??
And I can't wait
Can't hardly wait to see if
Things seem better off now
I think I'm better off now
[CHORUS]
Well save a little rain
And wash away the pain
I'll try and keep it clean
I'll show you what I mean
I don't wanna keep you holdin' on
Cuz in the morning I'll be gone
So long
[guitar solo]

Got a tattoo
Got it colored in with blue
Cuz it's a picture of your cold, sad face
And now it's true
We're probably better off apart
And we knew it from the start
That you never wanna stop
Wanting me wanting you no
Get up I think it's time for you to go
I don't know why you stay or what you're waiting for
[CHORUS:]
I'll get by
As long as you want me
I'll be fine
As long as you need me
As long as you leave me
Got a new shirt
Tryin' to cover up the hurt
Cuz I don't ever wanna show you what you did
And now it's done
We're so much better off in bed
But we're fucked up in the head
And we never wanna stop
Wanting more
Such a whore no
Get up and let me watch you dance some more
We both know why you came and what you're looking for
[CHORUS]
[guitar solo]
Never wanna stop never wanna stop [X 2]

I've got a hundred thousand watts, hundred thousand dollar stereo
Surrounded by speakers but I'm mono as hell
Got a hundred sad songs about the day that you walked out
And I'm feeling so down
It's just a bad situation
I wish that I could say that...
[CHORUS:]
I don't care about the sunny weather
Don't care about the sex when we're together
Don't care about nothing if you don't care
Why don'tcha?
I've got a lotta new drugs but I don't know how to use 'em
So I threw 'em in the trash and now my dogs are high as hell
Got a hundred better reasons why you oughta stick around
And I'll never back down
It's just another situation
I can't control it now...
[CHORUS]
I'd give it all away for you
For just another day with you
What am I gonna do
I don't care about nothin' [X 3]
If you don't care
[CHORUS]
I don't care about the sunny weather
Don't care and man I wish I never met her
. . .

Well I'm dreaming 'bout a Cadillac
And a girl that I used to have
But I know that I could never go back
To the day we took a photograph
That I'm holdin' in my hand
I can't believe I messed it up so bad
If I get another chance
I'd never waste it yeah
I swear I'll be a better man
[CHORUS:]
And I'll tell you right now
We'll make it up next time around
Yeah!
I'll pick you up and never put you down
Next time around
Yeah!
I'll lift you up and never let you down
Now I'm thinkin' bout the good times
All the friends that I used to know
And they always said they'd have my back
But now I'm flyin' solo
All alone again I stand
I can't believe I messed it so bad
If I had another chance
I'd never waste it yeah
I'll try and be a better man
[CHORUS]
[guitar solo]
[CHORUS X 2]

I shoulda called but it was late and you were sleeping, my dear
I would hate for you to hear what I was putting you through
I'm tryin' hard to be the man I know that you think I am
I'm really glad you weren't there but now I wish you were here
[BRIDGE:]
Cuz we're so wonderful
And so untouchable
And just when I thought it was under control
Everything just starts to...
The pillow burns I toss & turn from all of the things I say
You should've known better than to ever listen to me
[BRIDGE]
[CHORUS:]
Slip
Right through my fingers
Finding it's way to the tips
Well I'll try and forget
But all that I taste is your lips
Cryin' & kissin' me
[guitar solo]
[BRIDGE 2:]
We're so wonderful
And so untouchable
You're the biggest part of me
We're so wonderful
And so untouchable
And just when I thought it was under control
Everything....
Everything....

Common sense
Goes out the window like a cigarette
I take a hit again
When all her friends
They talk about me in a past tense
I take the hit again
[BRIDGE:]
She walks in in the middle of the night
Like we're good to go
All screwed up but it just feels right
And I don't wanna know where you go
Or how we went wrong
And when I think I can't go on
[CHORUS:]
She comes
And she comes
But when she goes she always takes away the best of me
She comes
And she comes
And when she's done I'm left with nothin' but the rest of me
Ignorance
My only explanation for this mess
I think about it when
We're on the fence
Between what is and what it should've been
I take the hit again
[BRIDGE]
[CHORUS]
Whatever she does
I always come undone
[guitar solo]
[CHORUS]
Whatever she does
I always come undone

I've been fallin' apart at the seams
But it's not as it seems
Broken pieces around at my feet
That I dance on
In my darkest day
In my darkest day I can find you
We've come all this way
And I'm still runnin' after it
Yeah
[CHORUS:]
I, I, live for this
I, I, I'd trade it for nothin'
I've been waiting for someone like you
To be waiting for me
This is more than I ever dreamed
And I dream on
I wish I could stay
I wish I could stay
Right beside you
We've come all this way
And I'm still lookin' after you
[CHORUS]
[guitar solo]
In my darkest day
In my darkest day
I can find you
We've come all this way
And I'm still runnin' after it
Yeah
[Solo: A Jay :] I, I, live for this I, I...
I'd trade it for nothin

I'm in over my head
They wanna try and build me up
So they can tear me down
I wish that I could be back there
But I'm writing here right now
They've taken everything that I've had to give and
They say it's over but man I'm still here livin
I don't know what to do, I think that maybe
I'm in over my head
Stuck in the red
Somethin they said
Makes me think that I'm in over my head
Over my head
Over my head
I've got to get away from here
And it couldn't be too soon
Cuz I see the stars are here with me
Like rockets to the moon
You take me everywhere that I've never been and
Show me the meaning of what life had to give and
I don't know what to say, I think that maybe
I'm in over my head
Lyin in her bed
Somethin she said
Makes me think that I'm in over my head
Over my head
Over my head
They've taken everything that I've had to give and
They say it's over but man I'm still here livin
I don't know what to do, I think that maybe
I'm in over my head
Stuck in the red
Somethin they said
Makes me think that I'm in over my head
Over my head
Over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
