Run ©
Why did you run away from here?
You left me alone,
it wont be long before you'll say:

"Why did I run from this place?
Why did I run from your face?
Why did I run from today?"

I'm hanging on like a leaf on a windy day in autum.

"Why did I run from this place?
Why did I run from your face?
Why did I run from today?"

I'm throwing away
all that reminds me of those days in which for you I pined.
I'm saying goodbye,
it's time to put the past behind.

Break Me Free ©
I can see you babe, out of the corner of my eye.
You've enchanted me, oh baby that I can't deny.
I want to look but I just can't seem to turn around.
I think this time my single-ship has run aground.

You captivate me.
You exhilirate me.
You infatuate me.
You fascinate me.

Please don't walk away, oh babe I need you here right now.
I want to talk to you, but baby I just don't know how.
Take me away, 
Break me free,
The emptiness in my heart 
is draining me,
it's drowning me,
it's paining me,
it's killing me.

You captivate me.
You exhilirate me.
You infatuate me.
You fascinate me.

I'm drifting away,
save me.

You captivate me.
You exhilirate me.
You infatuate me.
You fascinate me.

FMGreen ©
The first time I saw you were wearing a brown corduroy dress.
I walked up to you and told you my name.
We hit it off right from the start.
I never gave anything to complain.

I didn't mean to give you my heart,
But I lost it from the start .
You use your blue-grey eyes on me,
What do you see, you see FMGreen.

Now we've been together for a while,
And we go to the carnival,
And we ride the ferris wheel,
We left our relationship right there.

I didn't mean to give you my heart,
But I lost it from the start .
You use your blue-grey eyes on me,
What do you see, you see FMGreen.

You hate how I act like a clown,
But I like to act that way.
You say you're sorry and you want me back...
But I cant live with someone who doesn't think clowns are funny!

I didn't mean to give you my heart,
But I lost it from the start .
You use your blue-grey eyes on me,
What do you see, you see FMGreen.

A.D.D. ©
I, I couldn't be the one to break you in and I, I couldn't be.
I, I couldn't be the one to steal your lips, I couldn't be.
I couldn't be your Ron Jeremy in shining armour, falling from the treetops I fly with smokey eyes.
Grey and purple dreams not black and white like others like me, I couldn't be. 

Fall apart from my profession, I am a criminal 
You take away my inhibition I am a criminal
My lips dancing with your tongue I am a criminal 
My hands upon your hips I am a criminal.

I, I am relieved to know I did resist you, I, I am relieved
I am relieved you went inside when it began to rain outside of your house I am relieved
She's arriving in pajamas for a late night rendez vous with fate, I am releived.
A.D.D. I get confused, give me some ritalin.

Fall apart from my profession, I am a criminal 
You take away my inhibition I am a criminal
My lips dancing with your tongue I am a criminal 
My hands upon your hips I am a criminal.

Don't Aim to High ©
It's a dark and rainy night
Lonely is dark and rainy
Painful are the sleepless nights
A zombie of sorts, painful and numb
But we did we either...do anything wrong?

Don't aim to high cause its lonely at the top
I've been there before,
Maybe I still am,
Anyway,
Look at me now.

We were so close to eden
But fell short for reasons unknown (How was I to know?)
Is there such a thing as almost meant for each other?
So close, but when did we lose the way?

Don't aim to high cause its lonely at the top
I've been there before,
Maybe I still am,
Anyway,
Look at me now.

With jaded view of bliss and how it feels
She was my view of bliss.
Her lips are how it feels.
I could sum it up in fourteen volumes,
I could sum it up in fourteen lifetimes.

Don't aim to high cause its lonely at the top
I've been there before,
Maybe I still am,
Anyway,
Look at me now.

Is there such a thing as almost meant for each other?
So close but you meant to lose your way.
Was it my voice or her inner chatter
Can we put off this separation for another day?

Don't aim to high cause its lonely at the top
I've been there before,
Maybe I still am,
Anyway,
Look at me now.

Don't aim to high cause its lonely at the top
I've been there before,
Maybe I still am,
Anyway,
Look at me now.

4:05 ©
If a song could be a page, I've already written volumes
If I can only get a paragraph, then it's an autobiography.
As BNL plays in the background my musical diary becomes
More complete than the day before.

As daylight comes to break, and the watch says 4:05
I see maybe that my sleepless fantasy crawls away, while you still call my name,
Painful whispers, Your lips roam,
I don't want this, I cant have this,

If you could see past your stubborness, that you could win,
With just the right movement of your lips, a kiss that tells it all,
But not a kiss that says "I want you," that won't do,
A kiss is worth a novel or two, but your kisses read like Dr. Seuss.

As daylight comes to break, and the watch says 4:05
I see maybe that my sleepless fantasy crawls away, while you still call my name,
Painful whispers, Your lips roam,
I don't want this, I cant have this,

You can touch me any way you want and I won't stop you
I think you know this fact and you always use it against me
You are the one I dreamt about for so long but now so long
I don't want to talk to you so please don't call me anymore...

As daylight comes to break, and the watch says 4:05
I see maybe that my sleepless fantasy crawls away, while you still call my name,
Painful whispers, Your lips roam,
I don't want this, I cant have this,

Release ©
I write words when I et depressed
I almost thought you were the best
It's ok I don't mind
It's funny how these things work out
Can't you help a brother out
But it's not my fault my fault

A couple of fights in a car
He's drunk and She's just angry at the world
There is no easy way out so I'll leave them
And just walk home, walk home.

Lipstick ©
You say it's all my fault 
 How could you be so blind 
 It isn't just my arrogance 
 That's brought it down to this 
 You must be out of your mind 
 How could you be so blind 
 It isn't just my arrogance 
 That's brought it down to this 

 And I saw you walk in 
 And put your arms around his head 
 And then I saw you kiss hiss lips 
 And tell him He was all you missed 

 Your lipstick makes his  red

So I don't want to sleep again 
It was just a matter of when 
I knew this day would shurly come 
When it'd be more than MY IMAGINATION 
You say baby I'm glad you came tonight 
It's never been so right 
You don't say these words to me 
And this is how it really should be 

And I saw you walk in 
And put your arms around his head 
And then I saw you kiss his lips 
And tell him he was all you missed 

Your lipstick makes his  red

And now I don't know if your with him 
I moved on, and tried to just forget it 
A canyon cut between both of us 
And flirting is only fueled by lust 
I know he treated you bad 
You never made me sad 
Somehow your the lever 
And I'm the engineer 

And I saw you walk in 
And put your arms around his head

Pretty Girl ©
I say the stage feels good, it's oh so hot 
And all I have to do is play along 
To know what I'm about 
And your moving to the beat 
The kind of girl I wanna meet 
You say you'd like to date a band 
And that's so cute 

Pretty girl, alone in the croud 
Too much to drink, yeah, your Bound fall down 
Into my arms, you fall for me 
Like a dream, fits perfectly 

Your just staring at the lights 
And they light up your life 
You feel the pulse and turn around 
Stomp your feet on the beer soaked ground 
I play another song 
Your lips follow along 
I think you know all the words 
And I read them out of a book 

Pretty girl, alone in the croud 
Too much to drink, yeah, your Bound fall down 
Into my arms, you fall for me 
Like a dream, fits perfectly 

You say you like to meet the band 
Well it's ok cause he's my friend 
And then after the show 
He brings you around 
And you'll see I didn't lie 
My words sound just like the song 
And when it's time, to call it a day well 
You wouldn't want it, anyother way 

Pretty girl, alone in the croud 
Too much to drink, yeah, your Bound fall down 
Into my arms, you fall for me 
Like a dream, fits perfectly

It never seemed like she wanted it.
Never seemed like she cared.
But now when things fall out of place,
she is the first one to fear.
But why does she feel.
The way we all feel.
She doesn't understand that singing for her comes last.

I gotta get out of here.
Out into the blue fresh air.
Maybe to Berklee.
Jon has to stay a year.

Can you cast Jason again.
Doesn't it get old.
Conrad can't do the captain.
That move was pretty bold.
So go and F\/(K him.
In the janitors room.
If you must then do it.
You little bit(h.

Down, in the lobby.
My Boyfriend waits for me.
He, Loves my body.
But he doesn't really love me.
(I LOVE HER)
But he doesn't really love me.

Because I'm playin' PINK.
I'm all alone.
Guys are such a drag,
my love is for the girls.

She, feels like fire.
Burning under me.
We, are together.
Her first night alone with me.
(AND I CRY)
Her first night alone with me.

Because I'm playin' PINK.
I'm all alone.
Guys are such a drag,
my love is for the girls.

Whisper ©
The twilight sun comes down
And sets above the sea
There has never been a love
A love like you and me
And I, still feel, like love is not a dream
The stars above our heads tells stories of our love
And I live upon a thread
And you seem to feel what's not been said

And every whisper
Laid upon my ear
Leaves a scar
Of distance I can't yield
And some day
Eroded by the sun
Will relieve
The once departed sun

The flag my first Idea
It tore away my walls
Now stories of my love
Are pouring like a flood
And I still feel
Like yesterday was good
Our hands are one and one and love has brought about the fun
And I live upon a thread
And you seem to feel what's not been said

(Chorus)

(crazy horse standoff)

And the sun comes up in the morning
Everything's all right
The blind shall lead the faithful
The children shall lead the blind
And the children will live in peace
And we will raise them to the sky
to fly above the wind to fly to fly
good-bye, good-bye, good-bye

Alone ©
Don't let the light fall out of yesterday
Four black wheels and a lawnmower block
I wish the stickers covered up the rear
But the chrome shows through when I'm on the road

You don't know
What I need
From you
From you to me
I'm your
Please come home
With you I'm not alone

Last night I had a dream, I was floating past your house and you
came out with shotgun and BANG! BANG! My head flew onto the
BANG! BANG! My head flew onto the ground.

(Chorus)

At Jon's house, The lights go off at 8. But he don't care cause the TV's on. 
He's in the back with his satellite dish, Watching a bunch of duke boy reruns.

Ch.
I'll fall
To the floor
I'll walk
Right out the door
Don't stop
Can't be helped
This is The last film

Don't Ask ©
The agony of your defeat
Has put out of familys seat
You feel it, it's so strong
But your time to sing is long
The music loves you as you do
But no one else con feel it
You wish they all could understand
You wish your own philosophy was right

Don't you ask me where I've been
Don't you ask me what I've seen
Don't you ask me who you are
Don't you ask me anything

You never grab thier hearts
You could shut up they wouldn't care
You wish your shoebox put out hits
You wish you were them

Don't you ask me where I've been
Don't you ask me what I've seen
Don't you ask me who you are
Don't you ask me anything

Your driving down the street in your new blue car.
You see Some stuls on the sidewalk but you don't care anymore...
You've changed so much and your drive is no longer valid.
You realize your life is at a Neverending red light but there's nothing to do but savor the MO.

Don't you ask me where I've been
Don't you ask me what I've seen
Don't you ask me who you are
Don't you ask me anything

You don't hear the whole story (But you do)
You don't listen everynight (Oh that's right)
I am the only one (they don't care, they don't care)
I am the only one

Don't you ask me where I've been
Don't you ask me what I've seen
Don't you ask me who you are
Don't you ask me anything

Twisted ©
So you wanna be a big, big star.
Driving all around in your dark blue car.
Get away from me!
Killing all your dreams without sympathy.
And your a loser too!
Living in a back street motor home.
I'm getting close to you.
Here we go now.

I got another treat for you.
Eat it like a good German Shepard would.
Get away from me!
The girl is in the back with her garden.
And she hates you now!
Cause you are Jack and she is Jill and you just fell right down the hill.

He Looked away, I shot him down.
His twisted fate, He's on the ground.

So I guess that I'm a liar now.
And jack is locked away again.
But he's the special one.
He saw all my fears and the big bad gun.
And I'm the winning one.
'cause Jill is still alive with all the flowers 'round her thighs and I know.

He Looked away, I shot him down.
His twisted fate, He's on the ground.
Jill stands with me, I love you dad.
But you can't see, He isn't dead.

And now I am a loser too.
Brian is back in town.
get away from me.
I'm not feeling empathy.
The game is over now.
'Cause my powers fadin' out and all you have to do is shout.

He Looked away, I shot him down.
His twisted fate, I'm on the ground.
Jill stands with me, I love you dad.
But you can't see, your still dead.

Forest Hills Girl ©
Over a coke and fries
I fell in love with you
My throat swelled up
And I stuttered
I wish I caught your eyes
Now it's time to go so we pay and leave
And I start to cry
Ooh, I Love You, My Forest Hills Girl

I wasn't hungry, but,
I ordered dessert anyways
I needed more time with you
Before going away
I still think of your face
Every minute of everyday
Ooh, I Love You, My Forest Hills Girl

Jon left my name on the bill
But you never called me back
I know both our lives would be better
If you only loved me back
Your Eyes so Nright
Your Smile so Warm
Ooh, I Love You, My Forest Hills Girl

My Mind Grows Tired, Of Living Without You
I Hope You Grow Tired Too Please Let Me Into Your Heart
I didn't Order That Pickle But You Brought It Anyways
Ooh, I Love You, My Forest Hills Girl

I'm sorry it won't work out
The one love in my life
I don't care that your older
I don't care if you hate me
I love you Forever and a Day
Ooh, I Love You, My Forest Hills Girl

Yellow Plants ©

I look you over
Say you look great
Go out to dinner
But we show up late
Wait for an hour
And never eat
I hold on to you
I hope I never fail

But I know, Everything is alright
But I know, Everything is alright

I watch some TV
Your at my side
I flip the channel
You almost die
Blues Traveler Video
with Dorethy Gale
Once filled with color
You now turn pale

But I know, Everything is alright
But I know, Everything is alright

Without a breath of fear, I come to see you dear
Blindly stumble through your forrest of sappy trees and Yellow Plants

I know my feelings
But not too well
No room for healing
It's time to sell
I put my shoes on
walk to the door
I am not leaving
I'm here forever

But I know, Everything is alright
But I know, Everything is alright
But I know, Everything is alright
But I know, Everything is alright

I tried to fly..... ©
I look out at your faces
Wish I could swap places
I don't want to watch you
Staring at me
My thoughts run like water
And I start to stutter
Death falls around me
I don't want to die

I slowly look  Up
And I wonder
Where I'm going to go
When my time is up
And I wonder
How I'll ever know until
The Day I'm Dead

My brand new creation
In small despiration
A new set of lyrics
Has come  from behind
I falter while singing
My head is still ringing
Everyones trying
And I will Defy

If only you could see
But you see right through me
My superball pentel
Opens me up
I write down my feelings
And show the beginings
A BNL scream-fest
A grey Cocktail Drum

I'm sleeping in English
I make my last wish
I wish you were near me
And I start to cry
I had to be Older
I had to be Bolder
I had to try something
And I tried to fly.....

Dear Jenny, ©
Her Eyes like the north star on a cold winters night.
Her voice like hot cocoa when you break your arm.
She loves to drink coffe while she serves you a drink.
But when you still want her she'll brush you off...
And spit you out!

((((((((*))))))))
She Don't Love.
She Don't Care.
Sleeps in your Bed.
Throws you away.
((((((((*))))))))

They said if I wrote this song you'd change your mind.
So I put it all down but your side of the bed is still cold.
Your friends win over me like they always do.
You serve them java and watch all the Lovers like you did in the past.

She Don't Love.
She Can't Stay.
Sleeps in your bed.
Throws you away.

And John Patrick suffers silently between the both of us.
His hands and feet curl into balls, his heart about to bust.
But Jenny don't want us...
Jenny don't want us...
Jenny don't even want to hear.
Jenny don't want us...
Jenny don't Love us...
Jenny don't want us around here.

I go on without you, but I still return. (Jenny Let Me In)
Stare in from the cold,
Jenny Please let Me in. (Jenny Let Me In)
My Fingers are numb,
Jenny please let Me in. (Jenny Let Me In)
I really still Love you,
Jenny Please, Jenny please, Jenny please Let Me in! (Jenny Let Me In)

Why don't you stop bugging me, oh

Last night I had a dream
You were walking next to me
But we weren't walkin'
We were just sittin'
At the top of a bulk food bin
Then this fat old lady
She's grandma I think
She took a bag and scooped us in
And took us to the tops cashier

I'm A Jelly Bean
Just a Jelly Bean
Sittin' in a bag
Jelly Bean
Just a Jelly Bean

Sittin' in a jar on the counter
Red and Yellow and Green and Blue
Jar falls off the counter
and the Jelly Beans all escape
Out the back door
To the back Porch
To the Back Yard
Where we all melt down
To the ground
All melt down
To the ground

Sadness #521 ©
(Notebook Version)

You don't understand me
It will never work
An orange and brown garbage can
for an, orange and brown land of hate

Seeing life from different places
Opposites down to the core
We are both completely different
Yet again we are the same

A row of broken floodlights
Please don't turn them on
Remember the field concert
Memories of days now gone

Seeing life from different places
Opposites down to the core
We are both completely different
Yet again we are the same

I Wish I could see from your angle, 
Wish I knew and understood.
Let me have your angle measure, 
Show me how you come to this conclusion.

Seeing life from different places
Opposites down to the core
We are both completely different
Yet again we are the same

Don't leave me alone
Don't leave me afraid
Don't leave me here...

...Alone with memories...

...The stage I played my life
The world with all my friends
The start of all old bands
Regrets of old memories
