M+M's

You and I should get away for awhile
I just want to be alone with your smile
Buy some candy and cigarettes and we'll get in my car
We'll blast the stereo and we'll drive to Madagascar

Because when I'm with you there's nothing I wouldn't do
I just want to be your only one
I'm grasping out at straws
Thinking back to what I saw
That night on the floor when we were all alone

My love life was getting so bland
There are only so many ways I can make love with my hand
Sometimes it makes me want to laugh
Sometimes I want to take my toaster in the bath

Because when I'm with you there's nothing I wouldn't do
I just want to be your only one
I'm grasping out at straws
Thinking back to what I saw
That night on the floor when we were all alone

Who's gonna be the odd man out?
I don't want to be the odd man out
Is this going to be the end
Or are you going to be my new girlfriend?

Dammit
back to top

It's alright to tell me what you think about me
I won't try to argue or hold it against you
I know that you're leaving, you must have your reasons
The season is calling your pictures are falling down

The steps that I retraced the sad look on your face
The timing and structure, did you hear, he fucked her
A day late a buck short I'm writing the report
On losing and failing when I move I'm flailing now

And it's happened once again, I'll turn to a friend
Someone that understands, sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone and I've been here for too long
To face this on my own, well I guess this is growing up

And maybe I'll see you at a movie, sneak preview
You show up and walk by on the arm of that guy
And I'll smile and you'll wave
We'll pretend it's okay
The charade, it won't last
When he's gone, I won't come back

And it'll happen once again, you'll turn to a friend
Someone that understands, sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone, and you've been there for too long,
To face this on your own, well I guess this is growing up

Well, I guess this is growing up

Josie
back to top

Yeah
My girlfriend
Takes me home when I'm too drunk to drive
And she doesn't get all jealous when I hang out with the guys
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me mexican food from Sombrero just because
Yeah, just because

And my girlfriend
Likes UL and DHC
And she's so smart and independent, I don't think she needs me
Quite half as much as I know I need her
I wonder why there's not another guy that she'd prefer

And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down
I show up at 3am
She's still up watching Vacation
And I see her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place and

(I know that everything) Everything's gonna be fine
(I know that everything) Everything's gonna be fine

Yeah, my girlfriend
Takes collect calls from the road
And it doesn't seem to matter that I'm lacking in the bulge
She laughs at my dumb jokes when no one does
She brings me Mexican food from Sombrero just because

And when I feel like giving up
Like my world is falling down
I show up at 3am
She's still up watching Vacation
And I see her pretty face
It takes me away to a better place and

(I know that everything) Everything's gonna be fine
(I know that everything) Everything's gonna be fine

What's My Age Again
back to top

I took her out, it was a Friday night
I wore cologne to get the feeling right
We started makin' out and she took off my pants
But then, I turned on the TV

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by TV shows
What the hell is ADD, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

Then later on, on the drive home
I called her mom from a pay phone
I said I was the cops and your husband's in jail
This state looks down on sodomy

And that's about the time that bitch hung up on me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by prank phone calls
What the hell is call ID, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And you still act like you're in freshman year
What the hell is wrong with me, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?

That's about the time that she broke up with me (what's my age again?)
No one should take themselves so seriously
With many years ahead to fall in line
Why would you wish that on me, I'll never wanna act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

What's my age again...

All The Small Things

All the small things
True care, truth brings
I'll take one lift
Your ride, best trip

Always, I know
You'll be at my show
Watching, waiting
Commiserating

Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry 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 na na na na na na

Late night, come home
Work sucks, I know
She left me roses by the stairs
Surprises let me know she cares

Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry 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 na na na na na na

Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Keep your head still, I'll be your thrill
The night will go on, my little windmill

Say it ain't so, I will not go (na na na na na na na na na na)
Turn the lights off, carry me home (na na na na na na na na na na)
Keep your head still, I'll be your thrill (na na na na na na na na na na)
The night will go on, the night will go on (na na na na na na na na na na)
My little windmill

Adam's Song
back to top

I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest, who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all

I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine, I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside

The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months, I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never step foot in my room again

You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside

The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never conquered, rarely came
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside

The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait 'til I get home
To pass the time in my room alone

Man Overboard
back to top

So sorry it's over
So sorry it's over

There's so much more than I wanted and
There's so much more than I needed and
Time keeps moving on and on and on
Soon we'll all be gone

Spent some time to talk this over
You're out of line and rarely sober
We can't depend on your excuses
Cause in the end it's fucking useless

You can only lean on me for so long
Bring the ship about to watch a friend drown
Settle on the ledge
That you don't come down
You can only lean on me for so long

Cover up the scars
Put on your game face
Left you in a bar
To try and save face

You can only lean on me for so long
Bring the ship about to watch a friend drown
Settle on the ledge
That you don't come down
You can only lean on me for so long

So sorry it's over
So sorry it's over

There's so much more that I wanted and
There's so much more that I needed and
Time keeps moving on and on
Soon we'll all be gone

Man on a mission
Can't say I miss him around
Insider information
Can't keep your resignation
Loss of a good friend
Best of intentions I found
Tight lip procrastination
Yeah later
See you around

The Rock Show
back to top

Hanging out behind the club on the weekends
Acting stupid, getting drunk with my best friends
I couldn't wait for the summer at the Warped Tour
I rememeber that it's the first time that I saw her there

She's getting kicked out of school cause she's failing
I'm kinda nervous, cause I think all her friends hate me
She's the one, she'll always be there
She took my hand and I made it, I swear

Cause I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
She said, "What?" I told her that I didn't know
She's so cool, better sneak me in through the window
Everything's better when she's around
Can't wait until her parents go out of town
I fell in love with the girl at the rock show

When we said we were gonna move to Vegas
I rememeber the look her mother gave us
Seventeen without a purpose or direction
We don't owe anyone a FUCKIN' explatation

Cause I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
She said, "What?" I told her that I didn't know
She's so cool, better sneak me in through the window
Everything's better when she's around
Can't wait until her parents go out of town
I fell in love with the girl at the rock show

Black and white pictures of her on my wall
I waited for her call, she always kept me waiting
And if I ever got another chance I'd still ask her to dance
Because she kept me waiting

Cause I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
She said, "What?" I told her that I didn't know
She's so cool, better sneak me in through the window
Everything's better when she's around
Can't wait until her parents go out of town
I fell in love with the girl at the rock show

With the girl at the rock show (Repeat 6x)
(I'll never forget her)

First Date
back to top

In the car I just can't wait
to pick you up on our very first date
Is it cool if i hold your hand.
Is it wrong if i think it's lame to dance.
Do you like my stupid hair?
would you guess that i didn't know what to wear.
I'm too scared of what you think
you make me nervous so i really can't eat.

Let's go
don't wait
this night's almost over
honest
let's make
this night last forever
forever and ever
let's make this last forever
forever and ever
let's make this last forever

When you smile i melt inside
I'm not worthy for a minute of your time
I really wish it was only me and you
i'm jealous of everybody in the room
please don't look at me with those eyes
please don't hint that you're capable of lies
i dread the thought of our very first kiss
a target that i'm probably gonna miss.

Let's go
don't wait
this night's almost over
honest
let's make
this night last forever
forever and ever
let's make this last forever
forever and ever
let's make this last forever

Stay Together For The Kids
back to top

Its hard to wake up, when the shades have been pulled shut.
This house is haunted, its so pathetic, it makes no sense at all.
Im ripe with things to say, the words rot and fall away.
If a stupid poem could fix this home, I'd read it every day.

Chorus:
So heres your holiday
Hope you, enjoy it this time.
Gave it all away.
It was mine.
So when your dead and gone, will you
remember this night.Twenty years now lost,
it's not right.

The anger hurts my ears - been running strong for seven years.
Rather than fix the problem, they never solve them, it makes no sense at all.
I see them everyday - we get along so why can't they?
If this is what he wants, and its what she wants, then whys there so much pain?

Chorus: (x2)
So heres your holiday
Hope you, enjoy it this time.
Gave it all away.
It was mine.
So when your dead and gone, will you
remember this night. Twenty years now lost,
it's not right.

its not right (x4)

I Miss You
back to top

Hello there, the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in the background of the morgue
The unsuspecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
We'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never ends

Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you miss you)
Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you miss you)
Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness
Comes creeping on so haunting every time
And as I stared I counted
Webs from all the spiders
Catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
and hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
Stop this pain tonight

Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (miss you miss you)
Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (miss you miss you)

Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you miss you)
Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head (I miss you miss you)

Down
back to top

The drops of rain they fall all over
This awkward silence makes me crazy
The glow inside burns light upon her
I'll try to kiss you if you let me
(this can't be the end)

Tidal waves they rip right through me
Tears from eyes worn cold and sad
Pick me up now, I need you so bad

Down down down down
Down down down down
It gets me so
Down down down down
Down down down down
It gets me so

Your vows of silence fall all over
The look in your eyes makes me crazy
I feel the darkness break upon her
I'll take you over if you let me
(You did this)

Tidal waves they rip right through me
Tears from eyes worn cold and sad
Pick me up now, I need you so bad.

Down down down down
Down down down down
It gets me so
Down down down down
Down down down down
It gets me so

Aways

I've been here before a few times
And I'm quite aware we're dying
And your hands they shake with goodbyes
And I'll take you back if you'd have me
So here I am I'm trying
So here I am are you ready

Come on let me hold you touch you feel you
Always
Kiss you taste you all night
Always

And I'll miss your laugh your smile
I'll admit I'm wrong if you'd tell me
I'm so sick of fights I hate them
Lets start this again for real

So here I am I'm trying
So here I am are you ready
So here I am I'm trying
So here I am are you ready

Come on let me hold you touch you feel you

Kiss you taste you all night

I've been here before a few times
And I'm quite aware we're dying

Come on let me hold you touch you feel you

Kiss you taste you all night

Not Now

Come here, please hold my hand for now
Help me, I'm scared please show me how
To fight this, God has a master plan
And I guess, I am in his demand

Please save me, this time I cannot run
And I'll see, you when this is done
And now I, have come to realize
That you are, the one who's left behind

Please stay untill I'm gone
I'm here hold on to me
I'm right here waiting

I see, the light it feels good
And I'll come, back soon just like you would
It's use less, my name has made the list
And I wish, I gave you one last kiss

Please stay untill I'm gone
I'm here hold on to me
I'm right here waiting
And take my one last breath
And don't forget
That I will be right here waiting

Please stay untill I'm gone
I'm here hold on to me
I'm right here waiting
And take my one last breath
And don't forget
That I will be right here waiting

Please stay untill I'm gone
I'm here hold on to me
I'm right here waiting
And take my one last breath
And don't forget
That I will be right here waiting

Another Girl, Another Planet

I Always flirt with death
I could kill, but I don't care about it
I can face your threats
Stand up tall and scream and shout about it

I think I'm on another world with you (with you)
I'm on another planet with you (with you)

You Always get under my skin
I don't find it irritating
You always play to win
I don't need rehabilitating

I think I'm on another world with you (with you)
I'm on another planet with you (with you)

Another girl, another planet
Another girl, another planet

Space travel's in my blood
And There ain't nothing I can do about it
Long journeys wear me out
Oh God You know we wont live with out it

I think I'm on another world with you (with you)
I'm on another planet with you (with you)
I think I'm on another world with you (with you)
I'm on another planet with you (with you)

Another girl is loving you now
Another planet, Forever holding me down
Another planet
