I know a girl.
She puts the color inside of my world.
She’s just like a maze,
Where all of the walls all continually change.

I’ve done all I can
To stand on the steps with my heart in my hand,
now I’m starting to see
Maybe it’s got nothing to do with me.

Fathers be good to your daughters;
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers,
So mothers be good to your daughters, too.

Oh, you see that skin;
It’s the same she’s been standing in
Ever since the day she saw him walking away
Now she’s left cleaning up the mess he made.

so, Fathers be good to your daughters;
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers,
So mothers be good to your daughters, too.

Boys you can break,
You find out how much they can take.
Boys will be strong, and boys soldier on,

But boys would be gone without warmth
From a woman’s good, good heart
On behalf of every man, looking out for every girl,
You are the god, and the weight of her world.

so Fathers be good to your daughters,
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers,
So mothers be good to your daughters, too.
So mothers be good to your daughters, too.
So mothers be good to your daughters, too.

Midnight
Lock all the doors
And turn out the lights
Feels like the end of the world
This Sunday night

There’s not a sound
Outside the snow’s coming down
Somehow, I can’t seem to find
The quiet inside my mind

3:02
The space in this room has turned on me
All my fears have cornered me here
Me and my TV screen

The volume’s down
Blue Lights are dancing around
But still, I can’t seem to find
The quiet inside my mind

Daylight is climbing the walls
Cars start
Feet walk the halls
The world wakes
And now I am safe
At least by the light of day
At least by the light of day

I can feel your body
When Im lying in my bed
Theres too much confusion
Running round through my head

Its making me so angry
To know that the flame will always burn
When will I get over
When will I ever learn, ever learn

Old Love, leave me alone
Old Love, go on home

I can see your face
But i know that its not real
just an illusion
caused by how i used to feel

And its making me so angry
Knowing the flame will always burn
When will I get over
Come on, when will I ever learn

Old love, leave me alone
Old love, go on home

Old love, love
Old love
Old love

We got the afternoon
You got this room for two
One thing I’ve left to do
Discover me
Discovering you

One mile to every inch of
Your skin like porcelain
One pair of candy lips and
Your bubblegum tongue

And if you want love
We’ll make it
Swim in a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break ‘em
This is bound to be awhile

Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I’ll use my hands)
Your body is a wonderland

Something ’bout the way the hair falls in your face
I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase
You tell me where to go and
Though I might leave to find it
I’ll never let your head hit the bed
Without my hand behind it

You want love?
We’ll make it
Swim in a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break ‘em
This is bound to be awhile

Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I’ll use my hands)
Your body is a wonderland

Damn baby
You frustrate me
I know you’re mine all mine all mine
But you look so good it hurts sometimes

Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder(I’ll use my hands)
Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonderland

Da da dup ba da da da
Ba ba dup ba la la la
Ba ba dup ba ba da da

Ba ba dup ba da da da
Ba ba dup ba ba da da

is there anyone who ever remembers
changing their mind from the paint on a sign?
is there anyone who really recalls
ever breaking rank at all
for something someone yelled real loud one time?
oh, everyone believes
in how they think it oughta be
oh, everyone believes
and they’re not going easily

belief is a beautiful armor
but makes for the heaviest sword
like punching underwater
you never can hit who you’re trying for
some need the exhibition
and some have to know they tried
it’s the chemical weapon
for the war that’s raging on inside
oh, everyone believes
from emptiness to everything
oh, everyone believes
and no one’s going quietly

we’re never gonna win the world
we’re never gonna stop the war
we’re never gonna beat this
if belief is what we’re fighting for

we’re never gonna win the world
we’re never gonna stop the war
we’re never gonna beat this
if belief is what we’re fighting for

is there anyone you can remember
ever surrendering with their life on the line?

we’re never gonna win the world
we’re never gonna stop the war
we’re never gonna beat this
if belief is what we’re fighting for

we’re never gonna win the world
we’re never gonna stop the war
we’re never gonna beat this
if belief is what we’re fighting for

what puts a hundred thousand children in the sand?
belief can, belief can
what puts a folded flag inside his mother’s hand?
belief can, belief can

Back to you
It always comes around
Back to you
I tried to forget you
I tried to stay away
But it’s too late

Over you
I’m never over
Over you
Something about you
It’s just the way you move
The way you move me

I’m so good at forgetting
And I quit every game I play
But forgive me, love
I can’t turn and walk away
This way

Back to you
It always comes around
Back to you
I walk with your shadow
I’m sleeping in my bed
With your silhouette

should have smiled in that picture
If it’s the last that I’ll see of you
It’s the least that you
Could not do

Leave the light on,
Leave it on,
Leave the light on,
For me too, for me too

Back to me
I know that it comes
Back to me
Doesn’t it scare you
Your will is not as strong
As it used to be

I’m swimmin’ in a sea of faces
I’m tryin’ to feel my way to you
But it’s no use
In a crowded room where everybody wants you

After all the jacks are in their boxes
and the clowns have all gone to bed
You can hear happiness staggering on downstreet
footprints dressed in red
and the wind whispers MARY

A broom is drearily sweeping
up the broken pieces of yesterdays life
Somewhere a queen is weeping
Somewhere a king has no wife
And the wind, it cries MARY

The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow
and shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sails downstream
’cause the life they lived is, is dead
And the wind screams MARY

Will the wind ever remember
the names it has blown in the past
and with its crutch, its old age, and its wisdom
it whispers “no, this WILL be the last”
And the wind, cries MARY

Who did you think I was

I got half a smile and zero shame
I got a reflection with a different name
Got a brand new blues I can’t explain
Who did you think I was

Every mornin when the day begins
I make up my mind but change it back again
I’m a shifter of the shape I’m in
Who did you think I was

You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was

Am I the one who plays the quiet songs
Is He the one who turns the ladies on
Will I keep shinin til my light is gone
Who did you think I was

You got my number but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was

Here is a line that you won’t understand
I’m half of the boy but i’m twice the man
Carry the weight of the world in the palm of my hand
Who did you think I was

Takes four days to get to like me
But two to wanna leave
But the part that really gets me
Are all the moments in between
Now I lie to get a little
And laugh at every little thing
She’s high on information
But now I’m low on self-esteem

So I’m gonna try (try)
I’m gonna try (try)
Gonna try to be myself
Although myself will wonder why
I’m gonna try (try)
I’m gonna try (try)
Gonna try to be myself this time

I’m a hundred kinds of crazy
But I only wanna find
One sweet little angel
Who’s gonna let me speak my mind
All I ever do these days
Is dumb my process down
She’s making her decision
But now I’m losing all my ground

So I’m gonna try (try)
I’m gonna try (try)
Gonna try to be myself
Although myself will wonder why
I’m gonna try (try)
I’m gonna try (try)
Gonna try to be myself this time

Easy does it now
Just keep your damn mouth shut
She thinks you’re hot already
Don’t go and press your luck
No news is good news coming
You gotta wait to find
Don’t go and blow it
You do every single time

Oh I’m gonna try (try)
I’m gonna try (try)
Gonna try to be myself
Although myself will wonder why
I’m gonna try (try)
I’m gonna try (try)
Gonna try to be myself this time

you know, you know
I’m gonna try (try)
I’m gonna try (try)
Gonna try to be myself
Although myself will wonder why
I’m gonna try (try)
I’m gonna try (try)
Gonna try to be myself this time

Sometimes, I wish that I was the weather
You’d bring me up in conversation forever
And when it rained, I’d be the talk of the day

Oh, sometimes I wish that I was a cold beer
I’d rest assured that you would hold me near
I’d be guaranteed to be just what you need

CHORUS

And there could be no other way, ’cause you’re so, you’re so lame
Your tired words are all, they’re all the same
Yeah I would walk and I’d surely walk away
If I wasn’t such a sucker for you

Sometimes, I wish that I was a bong hit
You’d let me in and you would love every minute
And tell the room the things I did to you…

Oh and there could be no other way, ’cause you’re so lame
Your tired words are all, your tired words are all the same
Yeah I would walk you know I’d surely walk away
If I wasn’t such a sucker for you

I see your world with rosey-colored glasses on
Wanna right what I see wrong
I could never have that power over you

Someday, I’m gonna pack up and leave this town
I’m gonna get my own things goin’ on
And when I do, I’ll forget
I’ll forget
I’ll forget about how, how you’re so, you’re so lame
Your tired words are all, your tired words are all the same
And I would walk you know I’d, I’d walk away
If I wasn’t such a sucker for you
I wasn’t such a sucker for you
I wasn’t such a sucker for you
