Try me on, take me home
The tags are on, it's still a loan Warranty is in the sack You can always take me back And go Window shopping again Window shopping again Scan the shelves for something red It's different, It's brighter than The ones you had to have They didn't last, they just fade And you go Window shopping again Window shopping again There's no stopping your Window shopping Window shopping again There's miles and miles Of strip mall smiles Waiting to take you home And all the conversations Not so subtle invitations But isn't that what this is all about? Oops, there's a hole in the shrink wrap You didn't notice that? Lucky you, they'll take it back The warranty is in the sack Besides, there's always something more Something better, a bigger store To go Window shopping again Window shopping again There's no stopping your Window shopping Window shopping again Try me on, take me home The tags are on, it's still a loan Warranty is in the sack You can always take me back |

I control the sun, I turn on the stars
I make all the colors that you see as you circle me I open up the sky, I control the speed I can make the green lights flash, I can make you crash Barely makes a sound You stop when you slow down But I can't make you See things the way I see things I can't make you Feel things the way I feel them I can't wait around for you I've got better things to do 'Cause I control the sun, I cool down the heat I can make the walls spin around and raise the ground I control the world, I can make it flat I can make the water deep so I can save you from the sea Stop when you seem down Afraid that you would drown But I can't make you See things the way I see things I can't make you Feel things the way I feel them I can't wait around for you I've got better things to do I pushed every button, I pulled every string I've tried every lever, I've tried everything Barely makes a sound You stop when you slow down Now I can't make you See things the way I see things I can't make you Feel things the way I feel them I can't wait around for you I've got better things to do No, I can't make you See things the way I see things I can't make you Feel things the way I feel them I can't wait around for you I've got better things to do 'Cause I control the sun I control the sun If I can control the sun Then why can't I have you? I've got better things to do |

Everybody go
The party's over I want to be alone in my head In my bed tonight You never show You must really love her You think I don't know But I do, yeah it's true I think over is over I'm right back where I started (when it comes to wanting you) I can't have what I wanted [Chorus] But I did, I can I was, I am Only human, living, dying Just like any fool who ever breathed If love is blind If love's a drug It always is It always was and Love was surely made for fools like me I know where I'm going I'm tripping I'm sliding around That's ok At least I'm excited It wasn't how I planned it (wasn't how I planned it Feet are where I landed At least I understand it now) My feet are where I landed (feet are staying on the ground) [Chorus] Fools like me Fools like me I did, I can I was, I am Only human, living, dying Just like any fool who ever breathed Maybe it's the sanest thing Or just the sweetest kind of dream But love was surely made for fools (Love was surely made for fools) Love was surely made for fools (Love was surely made for fools) Love was surely made for fools like me |

what's the difference between you and me
to me it's kind of small to you it's like prison what's the difference between you and me to me it almost happens to you it almost isn't how did you become so sure your girlfriend never smiles and no one ever calls you begin to wonder if they were your friends at all you frown you take a look around you shout this will never get better but the doubt that you grow when you feel desprouted turning your field into a deeper valley Chorus you'd find (I know you'll find) the mountains aren't so high (the mountains aren't so high) if you'd only try (OooOooOooh) to do better it's 9:33 and the traffic, the stoplight somebody hits you nothing ever goes right and the gridlock nothing ever goes right and it's just a little scratch not a permanent scar it's just a tiny dent you don't need a new car it's just a little mess your dreams aren't shattered you climb up while I hold the ladder Chorus but how many times I've tried how many time I've missed and I've tried how many times I've tried how many time I've missed and I've tried when everything's so difficult I feel so alone but I find a better view on the other side of the window so that's the difference between you and me what if you believe that the grass could grow up through the snow it's possible Chorus to do better than get by Chorus to do better Chorus to do better than get by |

Diamonds are a ritual
A prize in a Cracker Jack A name that you won't get back Diamonds are a runaround A game you can't win While you wait for your life to begin Miss the party, drink the punch The drunk ones are the lucky bunch Diamonds play single So sharp and abrasive Just look at their poor faces, it's sad It's not in the cards for them Look down at their hands You'll see nothing, just emptiness and misery Miss the party, drink the punch The drunk ones are the lucky bunch Drink till they can't tell what's wrong Drink till they can't tell what's wrong Diamonds are a piece of twine A seal on the envelope Some guarantee of hope Diamonds are just rocks that shine So I'm not the diamond kind I'll never see a diamond mine Miss the party, drink the punch The drunk ones are the lucky bunch 'Cause they can't remember when they've had such a bad time No, they can't remember when they've had such a bad time No, they can't remember when they've had such a bad time Except they make diamond rings And diamonds are the hardest things |

If it's really love you'd follow it forever
Would you wander for me? Even though you think I'm lost and you know better Would you wander for me? Cause wandering is more than filling footprints right behind me How far would you go outside the lines if just to find me? Letting go of anything that grounds us Would you wander for me? Even though there's darkness all around us Would you wander for me? Cause I've wandered for you Wandering is more than filling footprints right behind me How far would you go outside the lines if just to find me? When you see that I have gone to the edge and way beyond Would you, would you, would you wander for me? It doesn't matter where we are, we can be our northern star Far above the earth and weather together Cause wandering is more than filling footprints right behind me How far would you go outside the lines if just to find me? When you see that I have gone to the edge and way beyond Would you, would you, would you wander for me? If it's really love you'd follow it forever Would you wander for me? |

The heir is introduced
She waltzes through her ballroom Swirling in her sequins, showing off her gown She steps on her own train She falls, she cracks her jaw Aghast her husband giggles He gasps She slipped on spilled champaigne Chorus: And we crowd around the accident We want to see the worst We crowd around the accident We want to see what hurts They're leaning in the corner He's buried in a baggie They say he's mischevious sometimes She's pretty, and her elbows are so pointy They're dangerous talking in the locker room His nose bleeds so profusely But no one tell him he's the star They watch like at the movies that he's famous for CHORUS Two stories about to fall Boasting at the swing set, marching down the hall She yelled, 'cause he upset her desk Don't yell He's picking sides, he's hitching rides to school His father left in winter He's no one's son If I can poke her with a pencil, I can pop her with a gun CHORUS We think... I'm glad it wasn't me And turn up the TV And squeeze our eyes shut, but leave a space to see |

Lucky me
how bad could it be to be alone for now to be free Oh, don't cry the time, it passes by just think of what you'll get when you're past this So is it allright if I go? Is it allright if I go? Oh, don't cry just think about the end I'll find my best friend at last Lucky me I'm ready for a ride I'll jump off and take a drive today So is it allright if I go? Is it allright if I go? Is it allright if I go? Oh, don't cry it's time to say goodbye. So is it allright if I go? Is it allright if I go? |

Oh, when I turned five I got a piece of cake,
the corner with the rose. I leaned in close, and I told him that I loved him, and he ran. It made my heart stop. It made my heart stop. Now I understand that my heart doesn't stop, even though it feels like it could explode. Now I understand that my heart doesn't stop, it beats on and on and on. And in the afternoon I put on my best swimming suit, and spied across the pool at all my friends, but I sat on the steps, in the shallow end alone because my heart stopped. It made my heart stop. I didn't get what I expected. Reached out and I got rejected. I couldn't have it cause I checked it off. Felt sad, I didn't understand it. Why would this happen to me? But my heart, it didn't stop, it beat on and on and on. Now I understand that my heart doesn't stop, even though it feels like it could explode. Now I understand that my heart doesn't stop, it beats on and on and on. |
