Matt Willis Album

Lyin' here, arm around my girl,
Turn on the radio.
Shame we had to bail,
You know we put on quite a show.
What am I gonna do?
I left on my answer phone,
Tell them what I told you
Right now I just don't know.
And I said,

Hey! Kid!
Don't think you gotta try and be somebody, yeah!
It happens on its own.
I said it's all right.
Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!)
You don't get along trying to be nobody else,
It's god-damned right, you know!

Every day will break,
But another comes along.
Won't have long to wait,
And you've always got that song.
It's funny when you're drunk (funny when you're drunk!)
How everything is clear.
"Come check out my bunk!"
And get the rock right out of here.
And I said,

Hey! Kid!
Don't think you gotta try and be somebody, yeah!
It happens on its own.
I said it's all right.
Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!)
You don't get along tryin' to be nobody else,
It's god-damned right, you know!

Feelin' so much better in this frame of mind,
'Cause I've been sick of taking over all the good guitars
And I know (and you know) I'm a capable guy.
I got so many things I wanted to do
And I got the chance to prove it to you!
Hey - I'm lyin' (I'm lyin'!) 'cause I waited my life
And I am ready to blow,
But when I do something about the wind and rain,
They start all over again,
And I need some pieces from you!

Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!)
Don't think you gotta try and be somebody, yeah!
It happens on its own.
I said it's all right.
Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!)
You don't get along tryin' to be nobody else,
It's god-damned right, you know!

Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!)
Don't think you gotta try and be somebody, yeah!
It happens on its own.
I said it's all right.
Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!)
You don't get along tryin' to be nobody else,
It's god-damned right, you know!

All I need is a luxury and she looks a lot like you
Na na na na, na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na na

Smooth talking, keep walking, no stopping, door hopping
Don't need no, excuse, I've got my own issues
Complicated, frustrated, but so damn scared to change this
Talk to me, every hour of every day they talk to me

I'm not going back again, I'm not going back again

All I need is a luxury and she looks a lot like you
Got a fever but I believe that I'm gonna see this through
I wanna share, but I'm so damn scared
And it hurts when you can't even go nowhere
You're the one thing that keeps me going
One more day, worth the wait, you'll be driving me home

Na na na na, na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na na

I'm angry, they tell me, don't need their bullshit therapy
Got a social, disease, thanks a lot but I don't believe
Denying, no faking, I'm trying they're mistaking
Talk to me, all they ever seem to say is talk to me

I'm not going back again, I'm not going back again

All I need is a luxury and she looks a lot like you
Got a fever but I believe that I'm gonna see this through
I wanna share, but I'm so damn scared
And it hurts when you can't even go nowhere
You're the one thing that keeps me going
One more day, worth the wait, you'll be driving me home
You'll be driving me home
You'll be driving me home
You'll be driving me home

I'm not going back again, I'm not going back again
No, I'm not going back again, I'm not going back again

All I need is a luxury and she looks a lot like you
Got a fever but I believe that I'm gonna see this through
I wanna share, but I'm so damn scared
And it hurts when you can't even go nowhere
You're the one thing that keeps me going
You're the one thing that keeps me going
You're the one thing that keeps me going
One more day, worth the wait, you'll be driving me home

Drawing circles on the window
Then I'm staring at the floor
There are places that we could go
'Cause we've been here before
And I'm losing myself
And I'm feeling a little...
Confused, I need help
I'm outta here

Get out the car honey,
What you said was outta place
Well I guess I'm walking home
With that sad look upon my face
Straight from the heart no worries,
Got a lot of love to make
Can you feel it a little...?
Don't let it go to waste

We're like a long distance conversation
With a two second delay
Talk a lot but we don't listen
And we got so much to say

And I'm losing myself
And I'm feeling a little...
Confused, I need help
I'm outta here

Get out the car honey,
What you said was outta place
Well I guess I'm walking home
With that sad look upon my face
Straight from the heart no worries,
Got a lot of love to make
Can you feel it a little...?
Don't let it go to waste

And I don't want to miss you
Even though we got issues
Yeah I know we can get through
Live for it all, 'cause after the fall comes the high

Get out the car honey,
What you said was outta place
Well I guess I'm walking home
With that sad look upon my face
Straight from the heart no worries,
Got a lot of love to make
Can you feel it a little...?
Don't let it go to waste
Don't let it go to waste
Don't let it go to waste
If you feel it a little
Well don't let us go to waste

Dare not speak her name
There’s a letter with her on it
Washed out by the rain and wonder were im going
Cause every days the same and the summer

Tuning in the frequences that people link without thinking
Mobile phones and radios
I’ll get there in the morning

Keeping me up all night
Baby do you fell alright
Keeping me up all night
I love that morning light
Keeping me up all night
Making me feel alright
Keeping me up all night

It's five in the morning
Im out of my head
And its alright

Im walking out of myself remembering her face
Im talking to a stranger
I haven’t seen for days
I was smashing up computers
Cause I can play the game and suffer of confusion
I carry it on for days

Its from all the faces from the places I’ve been going
Lately I’ve been searching
Cant stop searching and its gonna drive me crazy

Keeping me up all night
Baby do you fell alright
Keeping me up all night
I love that morning light
Keeping me up all night
Making me feel alright
Keeping me up all night

Four in the morning im out of my head its alright

Keeping me up all night
Baby do you fell alright
Keeping me up all night
I love that morning light
Keeping me up all night
Making me feel alright
Keeping me up all night

Four in the morning everything’s alright
Four in the morning I cant get you out my mind

I'm not waiting for an answer
I've had enough of this
I've been channeling my anger
And I'm scared I'm going to miss
Your excuses are ten to the pound
Your perfume makes me sick
Took forever but I figured out
You're a f**king lunatic

When you're lonely, then you phone me
Have a bad time, all of the time
I slam the phone down, you're on your own now
Give it a rest, you're out of your mind

Goodbye ex girlfriend
And don't come back again
I can't pretend, I'm going to have to end it now
Get out you cow
Don't turn around, I need a holiday...
I never loved you anyway

My friends told me to be careful
Who I hang around
I'm not sorry or ungrateful, not to put you down
Now you've stolen all of my CD's
But baby that's okay
'Cause I got them all on mp3's
And I didn't have to pay

When you're lonely, then you phone me
Have a bad time, all of the time
I slam the phone down, you're on your own now
Give it a rest, you're out of your mind

Goodbye ex girlfriend
And don't come back again
I can't pretend, I'm going to have to end it now
Get out you cow
Don't turn around, I need a holiday...
I never loved you anyway

Been patient with you, so listen when I say
Just face it we're through, time to walk away
I don't want to, I don't want to
Waste another day...

[Solo]

When you're lonely, then you phone me
Have a bad time, all of the time
I slam the phone down, you're on your own now
Give it a rest, you're out of your mind

Goodbye ex girlfriend
And don't come back again
I can't pretend, I'm going to have to end it now
Get out you cow
Don't turn around, I need a holiday...
I never loved you anyway

I have a little trouble trying to be myself
I feel inadequate next to everybody else
I didn't figure out I was in bad health
Without you
I only feel alive when you're...
Something 'bout the love that is in your eyes
It captivates and runs straight through to my mind
Then I smile

Oh baby, I'm going crazy
Do you think you can save me, from myself baby

Time goes by, I'm still a mess
My clothes don't fit, I don't want to undress
The melody beats into my chest
And I can't sing

Oh baby, I'm going crazy
Do you think you can save me, from myself baby

[Solo]

Oh baby, I'm going crazy
Do you think you can save me, from myself baby
From myself baby
From myself baby
Do you think you can save me?
Do you think you can save me?
Do you think you can save me?
From myself...
From myself baby

Girl I got a question,
Needing your attention,
Something that you can't avoid,
I gotta get a chance to try and get an answer,
Somewhere in between the noise,
You think you got a reason,
Everytime your screeming,
Shouting 'till you got no voice,
Don't know where your head is,
I don't wanna feel this baby but I got no choice

Tell me what want from me,
Is there somewhere that you'd rather be?
Cos everytime I'm here alone,
I'm watching it all fade out...

I'm feeling my heart grow colder,
Bridges are burning down,
But I just wanna get away,
I'm hearing a different sound,
I'm hoping the worst is over,
I'm ready to hit the ground,
I remember your last one but once is never enough tell me that's love,
I'm watching it all fade out

Sitting in the bedroom,
Whistling the same tune,
Having never woke up,
Lets think about your problems,
How I gotta sort them,
Could you see it's all my fault,
Same conversations same explaination,
Yeah but you never gave a shit at the time,
Always coming home cos I'm trying to be someone babe,
Who I just can't find

Tell me what want from me,
Is there somewhere that you'd rather be?
Cos everytime I'm here alone yeah,
I'm watching it all fade out...

I'm feeling my heart grow colder,
Bridges are burning down,
But I just wanna get away,
I'm hearing a different sound,
I'm hoping the worst is over,
I'm ready to hit the ground,
I remember your last one but once is never enough tell me that's love,
I'm watching it all fade out

Yeah what used to seem so right,
Yeah is fading out of sight,
Woah but do you even care,
I remember your last one but once is never enough tell me that's love,
I'm watching it all fade out

I'm feeling my heart grow colder,
Bridges are burning down,
But I just wanna get away,
I'm watching it all fade out

I'm feeling my heart grow colder,
Bridges are burning down,
But I just wanna get away,
I'm hearing a different sound,
I'm hoping the worst is over,
I'm ready to hit the ground,
I remember your last one but once is never enough tell me that's love,
I'm watching it all fade out

I've taken all the locks from the door
And I've picked up all your clothes from the floor
I'm feeling all fingers and thumbs
And I'm gonna need a beat from the drums...
I was gonna make a difference today
I was gonna go and jump on a plane
But who you gonna run to?
Who you gonna run to?
I was gonna call you up on the phone
But the thought of watching tv alone
Yeah who you gonna run to?
'cause I just wanna let you know

Can't we pick up where we started?
Can't we be adults about it?
What you saying? What you take me for?
I kinda get the feeling we've been here before I know
Let's do something about it
cuase I just wanna let you know

Have you got enough for the cab?
'cause I gave you everything that I have
Yeah who you gonna run to?
Who you gonna run to?
Amazing what a difference a day makes
Don't you say we're gonna be mates
Yeah who you gonna run to?
'cause I'm the one who loves you

Can't we pick up where we started?
Can't we be adults about it?
What you saying? What you take me for?
I kinda get the feeling we've been here before I know
Let's do something about it
cuase I just wanna let you know

I've taken all the locks from the door
And I've picked up all your clothes from the floor
I've taken all the locks from the door

What you saying? What you take me for?
I kinda get the feeling we've been here before I know

There's something stirring in the neighbourhood
Ugly but it's looking good
East coast to the west
And they play my favourite song yeah
I lie awake all night on aeroplanes
I got static on my brain
Waiting for the day when I will be back with you

Here comes the sound of America
Here comes the sound of America
This is the sound of America
Look out kid I'm coming to get you
Here comes the sound of America
Here comes the sound of America
This is the sound of America
From an English who loves you

There's magic on your finger tips
Holy water on your lips
Heading for a heart attack and good vibrations
Feel it rocking on the radio
Getting deep inside your soul
Shooting down your back, panic stations

Here comes the sound of America
Here comes the sound of America
This is the sound of America
Look out kid I'm coming to get you
Here comes the sound of America
Here comes the sound of America
This is the sound of America
From an English who loves you

Does everybody know my name?
So everybody walk this way
Got to get this off my chest so hear
These words you won't forget
Got this house under arrest
I'll take you all the way...

Here comes the sound of America
Here comes the sound of America
This is the sound of America
Look out kid I'm coming to get you
Here comes the sound of America
Here comes the sound of America
This is the sound of America
From an English who loves you

Monday, saw something in the paper
I said I'd read it later, but later never came
Friday, that bastard tried to sue me
He thinks he's gonna screw me
But no-one does these days
Tuesday or was it really Thursday
I woke up on the driveway
Of someone else's house
Yeah that's right, got crippled by the snake bite
And hearing for the tenth time
That you've been feeling down

This is a confession I'm making
Nothing is turning me on...

Get bored when I'm in the crowd
Get bored when it's way too loud
Get bored when I'm on my own
I get bored of being alone
Get bored of the radio
Get bored of the TV shows
One thing I know is true
I hope I never get bored of you...

Sunday, was meant to be the other day
But I don't hear a word they say
A million miles away
Please don't hate me 'cause I'm finding lately
When I'm drifting off, it's you I'm thinking of

This is a confession okay
Thank god you're turning me on

Get bored when I'm in the crowd
Get bored when it's way too loud
Get bored when I'm on my own
I get bored of being alone
Get bored of the radio
Get bored of the TV shows
One thing I know is true
I hope I never get bored of you...

I get so bored all the time
I get bored out of my mind
I get bored, day and night
I get bored all of the time

Get bored when I'm in the crowd
Get bored when it's way too loud
Get bored when I'm on my own
I get bored of being alone
Get bored of the radio
Get bored of the TV shows
Get bored of what I have
I get bored of days that drag
Get bored of the things they say
Get bored it's a boring day
Get bored of my favourite bands
I get bored of all my plans
Get bored I'm bored as shit
Get bored I'm dealing with it
One thing I know is true
I hope I never get bored of you...

I don't want to fight, don't want to be afraid
I'm falling straight into you
Are everything that I need right now
I have fallen for you
Turn off the lights 'cause you're killing me
Can't take the eyes that you're giving me
We've hurt each other before
Can't take the pain anymore
Turn out the lights 'cause I don't wanna hide
I gotta know you are by my side

Don't wanna lose you now
When we're so good together...
(Turn out the lights
Can't take those eyes right now
I have fallen for you, turn out the lights
I need to know right now
If you have fallen for me)

'Cause this time it's for real
'Cause this time it's for real...

Falling into you, I'm falling into pieces
Just got to tell you but
I'm scared you won't believe it
And one day I'll wake up to find that we broke up
I don't want that for you, I don't want that for me
I just want to stay here

I feel that it's time to say those three words to you
Words are all that I have
Don't walk away, don't want to feel no pain
That's okay I got you...

(Don't walk away girl I'm begging you
You gotta hear what I'm telling you
Don't want to feel your pain
'Cause I believe in you...
And I hope you feel it too)

Falling into you, I'm falling into pieces
Just got to tell you but
I'm scared you won't believe it
And one day I'll wake up to find that we broke up
I don't want that for you, I don't want that for me
I just want to stay here
