Bomb |
 |
With blankness staring
back at me
and screaming from
the pages I feel the fear apathy
gripping me, pushing me
on top of every thing
in the corner with a view
I turn off the
fluorescent tube
This is the bomb that I've
been waiting for
looking for
you finally lit the fuse
that's in my head
yes, you finally lit the
fuse that's in my head
With nothingness
on top of me
and bleeding from
my folder
only you can stop
the emptiness
don't let it take over.
I've been sinking down
further into nothing
I've been waiting long
longer then for
some things
This is the bomb that I've
been waiting for
looking for
you finally lit the fuse
that's in my head
yes, you finally lit the
fuse that's in my head |

1...2...3...4
Nothing but a chemical in my head
It's nothing but laziness
Cuz I dont wanna read the book
I'll watch the movie
Cuz it's not me
I'm just like everybody else my age
I think I'd rather play around
And I think I'd rather watch tv
Cuz I dont wanna face my fears
I'll watch the movie.
It's not me
I'm just like everybody else
I'm just like everybody else because
I don't wanna be here,
I don't wanna see this now
It's all wrong, but it's all right
And I don't wanna be here,
I don't wanna study now
It's all wrong but it's all right
I don't know what love is
And I don't know who I am
And if I ever wanna find out
I'll watch the movie
Cuz it's not me
I'm just like everybody else my age
I don't wanna change the world
And I don't wanna be someone
And I don't wanna write the book - I'll make the movie
Cuz it's not me
I'm just like everybody else (I'm just like everybody else)
I'm just like everybody else
I don't wanna be here,
I don't wanna see this now
It's all wrong but it's all right
And I don't wanna be here,
I don't wanna study now
It's all wrong but it's all right
It's all right. |

Underwater |
 |
It's in her head, it's in her mind
She can't believe it
Can't believe she's running out of time
And any hold that she can find
Something to lean on
Everybody fails her half the time
Nothing to be
She's already been
Oh, in plenty of time
Plenty of time
Plenty of time
She lights her candle, six A.M.
Starting a new one
Every new one hits her just the same
Just like clockwork
She climbs down into her bottle
Yeah, and no one down there cares to know her name
She's underwater, nowhere now
She's underwater, upside down
The rising tide won't find her now
She's lost and found
Underwater
She's underwater
She's underwater, but she won't drown
She can't believe it
And everyone she meets feels just the same
It takes all day to get to tonight
What makes the sunset
And what makes it go back to where it came
Nothing to be
She's already been
In plenty of time
Plenty of time
Plenty of time
She's underwater, nowhere now
She's underwater, upside down
The rising tide won't find her now
She's lost and found
Now she's upside down
Now she's six feet down
Underwater
Underwater

Edge of My Seat |
 |
Nothing more
That there's nothing more
Nothing more
That there's nothing more
Nothing here's the same, it's all a dream
Life on the movie screen
And I'm sitting on the edge of my seat
I can't tell what happens next, just what I've seen
I don't know what it means
But I'm holding on the edge of my seat
'Cause I can't forget your name, forget your name
Yeah I can't forget you now
I know I can't forget you, girl
I promise
Sit back buckle in and hold on tight
A roller coaster ride
And I'm holding on the edge of my seat
And I can't know for sure
'Cause I just landed on your shore
But I think you got nothing but another thing coming
If you think there's nothing more
That there's nothing more
I can't forget your name, forget your name
Yeah I can't forget you now
I know I can't forget you girl
I can't forget your name, forget your name
Yeah I can't forget you now
I know I can't forget you, can't forget you girl
I can't forget your name, forget your name
Yeah I can't forget you now
I know I can't forget you girl |

Home |
 |
I can see the stars from way down here
But I can't fall asleep behind the wheel
It's a long way from the shadows in my cave
Up to Your reality
To watch the sunlight taking over, over
Taking over
Take me over
I've been poison, I've been rain
I've been fooled again
I've seen ashes shine like chrome
Someday I'll see home
All that's in my head is in Your hands
If it's in my head, it's in Your hands
It's in my head, it's in Your hands
It's in Your hands |

Might Have Ben Hur |

Everything I know
Tells me she's everything
That I could hope for
Everything I know
Tells me I can't let her walk away
I took my time to find the words
I hope she'd feel the same
'Cause I want someone to share my smile
To share the pain
To be there when the sea turns gray
To share the joy
For better or worse
{chorus}:
And I thought that it might have been her
I thought that it might have been her
Wonder if she knows
The way I saw her soul
Light up my life
Wonder if she knows
of the pain I feel tonight |

Concrete Girl |
 |
Bleeding thoughts
Cracking boulder
Don't fall over
Fake your laughter
Burn the tear
Sing it louder,
Twist and shout
Way up here
We stand on shoulders
Growing colder
Laugh or cry
I wont mind
Sing it louder,
Twist and shout
Immovable shadows
Concrete girl
They'll rock your world
To nothing
And they're swimming
Around again, again
And they're swimming
Around the concrete girl
Catch your breath
Like four leaf clover
Hand it over
Scream to no one
Take your time
Sing it louder,
Twist and shout
Nothing to run from
Is worse than something
And all your fears
Of nothing
And they're swimming
Around again, again
And they're swimming
Around the concrete girl
Concrete girl
Don't fall down
In this broken world
Around you
Concrete girl
Don't fall down
Don't fall down
My concrete girl
Don't stop thinking
Don't stop feeling
One step away
From where we were
And one step back
To nothing
And we're standing on top
Of hopes and fears
And we're fighting
For words now
Concrete girl
And we're swimming
Around again, again
And we're swimming
Around now
Concrete girl |

Life and Love and Why |
 |
Life and love and why
Child, adult, then die
All of your hoping and all of your searching for what?
Ask me for what am I living and what gives me strength that i'm willing to die for
Take away from me this monstrosity
'Cause my futile thinking's not gonna solve nothing tonight
Ask me for what am I living and what gives me strength that I'm willing to die for
Could it be this?
Could it be bliss?
Could it be all that I ever had missed?
Could it be true?
Can life be new?
And can I be used?
Can I be used?
Give me a reason for life and for death
And a reason for drowning while I hold my breath
Something to laugh at a reason to cry
With everyone hopeless and hoping for something to hope for
Yeah, with something to hope for
Could it be true?
Can life be new?
Could it be all that I am is in You?
Could it be this?
Could it be bliss?
Can it be You?
Can it be You? |
 |
You |
 |
There's always something in the way
There's always something getting through
But it's not me
It's you
It's you
Sometimes ignorance rings true
But hope is not in what I know
It's not in me
It's in you
It's in you
[chorus]
It's all I know
It's all I know
It's all I know
I find peace when I'm confused
And I find hope when I'm let down
Not in me, me
In you
It's in you
I hope to lose myself for good
I hope to find it in the end
But not in me, me
In you
In you
[chorus]
It's all I know
It's all I know
It's all I know
In you
In you
Its in you
In you
There's always something in the way
There's always something getting through
But its not me, me
It's you
It's you
It's you
It's you
It's you (Its all I know)
It's you
It's you (Its all I know)
It's you
It's you (Its all I know)
It's you
It's you |

Ode to Chin |
 |
What's your direction?
Tell me what's wrong, tell me what's right
What's your direction?
Think about somebody else for the night
Life's more than girls
God's more than words
You're more than this
So what's your direction?
And where are you now?
Grow, grow where you are
Anchor your roots underneath
Doubt your doubts and believe your beliefs
What's your direction?
What matters most?
What should you know?
What's your direction
All that you've been
Makes who you are now
'Cause I've been ashamed
I've been a fool
You know I've backed down
When I lose direction I pray to be found
Grow, grow where you are
Anchor your roots underneath
Doubt your doubts and believe your beliefs |

Don't Be There |
 |
Don't be there, don't be there,
'Cause I'm on my way,
And I'm already gone over,
And I'm on my way, hey...
I can't recall myself how I went down,
Did I get shot or shoot myself?
I'm down here, I'm down here,
And you're way up there,
That doesn't hurt, badly,
But it stings right here, hey...
I can't recall myself how I went down,
Did I get shot or shoot myself?
And I won't pretend there's nothing there,
You'll be around and I'll be square.
Don't be alarmed if I'm not there,
You'll be around and I'll be square.
If you're a rose then I'm the thorn
that's in your side,
And does it hurt badly?
'Cause it burns right here.
I can't recall myself how I went down,
Did I get shot or shoot myself? |
