Jon Mclaughlin - Indiana (2007) by Jon Mclaughlin (보컬) on maniadb.com

My debut is coming soon
You already know what I'm gonna do
You got my time on the dotted line
But you show up invited and before I sign
And someone say I'm not making mistakes
But please don't be fake

My debut comes today
And my feelings have all run away
With the man that I am but understand
Hey, if I don't keep going it'll just go to show
That I've been beat by an industry I've never seen

This is me on my knees
Singing take it all from me, take it all
Speak to my needs, my needs
Oh, and take it all, oh, just take it all, this is me

So the crowd gets quiet, I start to play
And I think they're buying what I got to say
But to my defiance the music fades
And we all sit silent and I crawl back inside
Because it wasn't supposed to go this bad

This is me on my knees
Singing take it all from me, take it all
Speak to my needs, my needs
Oh, and take it all, oh, just take it all, this is me

And when you grow silent I start to fall
And when you grow silent I start to fall
And when you grow silent I start to fall
When you grow silent I

And when you grow silent I start to fall
And when you grow silent I start to fall
And when you grow silent I start to fall
And when you grow silent, when you grow silent

This is me on my knees
Singing take it all from me, take it all
Speak to my needs, my needs
And take it all, oh, just take it all

This is me on my knees
Singing take it all from me, take it all
And speak to my needs, my needs
And take it all, yeah

She loves her momma's lemonade
Hates the sounds that goodbyes make
She prays one day she'll find someone to need her
She swears there's no difference between the lies and compliments
It's all the same if everybody leaves her

And all the magazines tells her she's not good enough
The pictures that she sees makes her cry

She would change everything, everything, just ask her
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster
She just needs someone to take her home

She's giving boys what they want
Trying to act so nonchalant
Afraid to see that she's lost her direction
She never stays the same for long
Assuming that she'll get it wrong
Perfect only in her imperfection

She's not a drama queen
She doesn't wanna feel this way
Only 17 and tired, yeah

She would change everything for happy ever after
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster
She just needs someone to take her home

She's just the way she is
But no one's told her that's okay

She would change everything, everything, just ask her
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster

She would change everything for happy ever after
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster
She just needs someone to take her home
She just needs someone to take her home

Still waters and heavy hearts,
The plans we made all fell apart,
Disillusioned and lost in the grace
And how can we fix the heart when it breaks,
Don't know how much more you can take,

Just give it time, it's gonna get better,
Now is not forever at all,
Just give it time and everything changes,
Tomorrow comes, today will be gone,
And everything is gonna be alright
Just give it time, give it time

Quiet landslide when nobody knows
Regretted decisions that nobody chose
Under water, sinking fast
No way out, no way to get back
What might have been is lost in the past

Just give it time, it's gonna get better,
Now is not forever at all,
Just give it time and everything changes,
Tomorrow comes, today will be gone,
And everything is gonna be alright
Just give it time, give it time

When the world you're in is still again
And it all fades out
You've reached the end, begin again now
Now

Just give it time, it's gonna get better
Now is not forever at all
Just give it time and everything changes
Tomorrow comes, today will be gone
Just give it time, it's gonna get better
Now is not forever at all
Just give it time and everything changes
Tomorrow comes, today will be gone
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Just giver it time, yeah time

It`s you to me
Your gentle face
Overdue, worth the wait
And out of my reach
But I`m reaching out for you
Me to the night
I say goodbye
The time is up
I fight the time
A needed award
I can`t afford
A finished song
One more cord

And it`s already in my mind
I`m in over my head inside
And it`s already in my mind
Inside Inside

Everyone`s back
Hearts at war
With all the plans I had before
And I`m losing my grip
But, I`d lose it all for you
So I go driving all around
And I`m denying all the sounds that hit my ear
Drum the beat of a heart I can`t defeat

And so it`s already in my mind
I`m in over my head inside
And it`s already in my mind
Inside Inside

Already in Already in

Unexpected, understatement of the year and that's for sure,
Who'd of thought that I'd be standing at your door,
It's just the way you say my name and it throws me,
And all the windows of my past are closing,
And everything that you see,

Is for you from me,
I give it away so easily,
Never stopped to look at whats behind,
For you from me,
And everything we want will be holding us together tonight, tonight

Unexpected, I'm not used to chasing dreams and catching them,
All of a sudden I'm the winner in the end,
I'm used to every door I open closing,
Always making sure I'm not supposing
I can't believe I'm really here

For you from me,
I give it away so easily,
Never stopped to look at whats behind,
For you from me,
And everything we want will be holding us together tonight

And we will never fall,
We'll defy the laws of this world,
With new ones of our own,
That's the way I feel,
Stupid but for real,
And all that I am is

For you from me,
I give it away so easily,
Never stopped to look at whats behind,
For you from me,
And everything we want will be holding us together tonight

For you from me,
I give it away so easily,
Never stopped to look at whats behind,
For you from me,
And everything we want will be holding us together tonight, tonight

Can you tell me how we got in this situation,
I can’t seem to get you off my mind,
all these ups and downs,
they trip up our good intentions,
nobody said this was easy ride.

After all we’re only human,
always fighting what we’re feeling,
hurt instead of healing,
after all we’re only human,
is there any other reason why we stay instead of leavin’ after all

Can we get back to the point of this conversation,
when we saw things through each others eyes,
cause now all I see is ruin and devastation,
we all need some place we can hide inside and

After all we’re only human,
always fighting what we’re feeling,
hurt instead of healing,
after all we’re only human,
is there any other reason why we stay instead of leavin’

I’m smart enough to know,
that life goes by,
and it leaves a trail of broken bones behind,
if you feel I’m letting go,
just give me time,
I’ll come running to your side,

Can you tell me how we got in this situation,
I can’t seem to get you off my mind cause

After all we’re only human,
always fighting what we’re feeling,
hurt instead of healing,
after all we’re only human,
is there any other reason why we stay instead of leavin’

After all we’re only human,
always fighting what we’re feeling,
hurt instead of healing,
After all we’re only human,
is there any other reason why we stay instead of leavin’ after all

Any other reason
to stay instead of leavin’
after all, yeah

I'm glad I never lived next to the water,
So I could never get used to beach,
and I'm glad I never grew up on a mountain,
to figure out how high the world could reach

I love the miles between me and the city,
Where I quitely imagine every street,
and I'm glad she never fell in love with me

For some the world's a treasre to discover,
and your scenery should never stay the same,
but they're trading in their dreams for explinations,
all in an attempt to entertain but

I love the miles between me and the city,
Where I quitely imagine every street,
And I'm glad she never fell in love with me

The trict of love's to never let find you,
It's easy to get over missing out,
I know the how's and when's,
But now and then she's all I think about

I wonder how It feels to be famouse,
but wonder is as far as I will go,
Cause I'll probably lose myself in all the pictures,
and end up being someone I don't know,
So it's probably best I stay in Indiana,
Just dreaming of the world as it should be,
Where every day is a battle to convince myself,
I'm glad she never fell in love with me

<i>[Verse 1:]</i>
The pieces that are showing lead to the unknowing
Pieces of my life taking up my time
It's always how it is and never don't exist
Everything you need is nothing he can be

<i>[Chorus:]</i>
You never lose. You never lose before we go we all should know that.
<i>[repeat]</i>

<i>[Verse 2:]</i>
Carousel's around me and no one here has found me.
And I don't think you saw the parts that only are.
I'm leaning on my instincts, guide me to the meaning
of everything you said, filling up my head.

<i>[Chorus]</i>

<i>[Verse 3:]</i>
When memories only hurt you they're taking over.
Let me on the inside I'll be a shoulder.
<i>[repeat]</i>

Now it's like I've always saw it.
Let me on the insdie I'll be a shoulder.
Memories only hurt you they're taking over
<i>[repeat]</i>

<i>[Chorus]</i>

<i>[repeat 3 times]</i>

People doing better
People needing more
People writing letters
People get ignored
People saving money
And people saving face
People going hungry
People waste away

<i>[Chorus]</i>
Needed one reason
To live in a world
Where nothing is worthwhile
'Till it's gone
You spend your life
Moving on

People wearing nothing
And people wear it all
People scared of something
People live in doubt
People going places
And people running home
And those who know what grace is
People disown

<i>[Chorus]</i>

Give me the one reason
To care anymore
Cause there has got to be
A better way
A road that leads
To better days

And in the back of our minds
And corners of our eyes it lies
And I will love you back
I'll love you back

<i>[Chorus]</i>

Give me the one reason
To care anymore
Cause there has got to be
A getter way
A road that leads
To better days

I can't find Crazy Horse,
Can't find Hoffa and Amelia's missing somewhere out at sea,
And I hope they're happy,
Havin' a party and Elvis is servin' them up green apple martini's,

I can't find my watch,
I can't find my wallet,
So how in the hell am I supposed to find

The one that I love,
The one that I need,
Hidden so high,
Burried so deep

Well I found odd jobs and I found reasons,
For all kinds of ways I can waste my time,
And I found letters and I found levers
And I found new ways just to tell old lies,


I can't find my watch,
I can't find my wallet,
So how in the hell am I supposed to find

(chrous)
The one that I love,
The one that I need,
Hidden so high,
Burried so deep,

Somewhere to run,
Somewhere to go,
And if I ever find her,
How will I know, how will know

'cause can't find Crazy Horse,
Can't find Hoffa and Amelia's missing somewhere out at sea

She don't know you but she swear she knows your type
Got a mouth full of opinions and most are wrong
But they all sound right
And the ring around her finger is only there for make you
Wish you were the one for her

So I'm praying to keep me from breaking
From being another loser helpless at her side
And it's crazy, it's like no one can save me this time
She's got me praying to the wrong god every night
Praying to the wrong god every night

There's a reason no one knows her name
If she don't tell you then she never has to change it
She's allergic to "I Love Yous" and staying in one place
For too long
If you blink she's gone

So I'm praying to keep me from breaking
From being another loser helpless at her side
And it's crazy, it's like no one can save me this time
She's got me praying to the wrong god every night
Praying to the wrong god every night

Make her make me mean more
Or make her go away
Make her make me mean more
Or make her go away

I'm praying to keep me from breaking
From being another loser helpless at her side
And it's crazy, like no one can save me this time
She's got me praying to the wrong god every night
Praying to the wrong god every night
She's got me praying to the wrong god every night
(Every night)

I used to stare up into the sky,
And fill the space around with my whys
But now I've got it all figured out,
And I'm embarrassed that it took me till now,

The simple answers in her replies
Unlock the universe with her eyes,
She rips apart my world with her moves,
Oh while stealing all the light in the room

<i>[Chorus]</i>
And I found someone to walk me through this life
The brightest sun has opened up my eyes
Tonight I need exactly who she is
We're going to be perfect

She can teach a melody to the birds,
And problem solving without a word
She can tell the richest man how to need,
Oh right after telling him about me

And I found someone to walk me through this life
the brightest sun has opened up my eyes
Tonight I need exactly who she is
We're going to be perfect

And in my life,
If I can have one thing I don't deserve
Then I have never wanted anybody else but you

She can do no wrong in my mind,
So I take a seat while she takes her time,
'Cause I am here forever I say,
So lock me up and throw the keys away

<i>[Chorus]</i>
'Cause I found someone to walk me through this life
The brightest sun has opened up my eyes
Tonight I need exactly who she is
We're going to be perfect
Perfect

Fourth floor,
Lonely white leader,
Sits there staring at the screen,
Types in
Can anybody tell me what it all means,
Tick-tock waitin' for an answer
It's no use and all at once to her surprise,
She gets one reply,

Until you got love,
You know you got nothin',
Your missin that somethin that's gonna set you free,
Until you got love,
You'll always be running,
Love is that one thing that everybody needs,

Sunday no one's at the office,
Just waitin at his fathers desk,
Workin' trying to fill the shoes that his dad left
'dear son' he finds in a letter,
"please try your best to learn from my mistakes, you know work can wait"

Until you got love,
You know you got nothin',
Your missin that somethin that's gonna set you free,
Until you got love,
You'll always be running,
Love is that one thing that everybody needs,

There's nothing cool in this room,
Nothing new in what I'm sayin,
But sometimes the truth is what it is,
So why should I apologize for lookin for a better way to live,
Way to live

Until you got love,
You know you got nothin',
Your missin that somethin that's gonna set you free,
Until you got love,
You'll always be running,
Love is that one thing that everybody needs

Until you got love,
You know you got nothin',
Your missin that somethin that's gonna set you free,
Until you got love,
You'll always be running,
Love is that one thing that everybody needs

I finding out that wasn't your real name
I called it out but you never came
You're leaving me
In this fantasy
That we made our lives out to be

Could it be that I never saw
All the writing written on the wall
Oh, taking half of the fantasy
That we made our lives out to be
Could it be I can't believe you?re gone
Stranger things have happened
And everyone moves on

But I, I can't let this get out
If we avoid confrontations
We'll live on in conversations
But please keep this to yourself
Let's keep as much of how it was
How it is then they won?t find out
Find out(2x)

I'm finding out I cannot be alone
I'm stumbling over things you use to own
It's getting hard to give them back,
When I?m getting used to living in the past
Could it be my phone is off the hook
And I'll pretend it's you I just won't love

But I, I can't let this get out
If we avoid confrontations
We'll live on in conversations
But please keep this to yourself
Let's keep as much of how it was
How it is then they won?t find out
Find out(x2)

Could it be I can't believe you?re gone
Stranger things have happened,
And everyone moves on

But I, I can't let this get out
If we avoid confrontations
We'll live on in conversations
But please keep this to yourself
Let's keep as much of how it was
How it is then they won't find this out
Find out, Find out, Find out
(2x)

You wanted to see
All that I could be
In in your life, your life
What if I fail though,
I forget all the details
On what's right, what's right

I'm throwing a line, asking for help
This is more than I thought
I think to myself
That living in love
is trusting above
myself

You gave me your heart
What a place to start
All those empty scars and all those cold remarks
We're always promising
that honesty would let us be inside each other's minds

I'm throwing a line, asking for help
This is more than I thought
I think to myself
That living in love
Is trusting above myself
Everyday I'm constantly trying to sacrifice
Cause I know despite me that living in love is trusting above
Myself

We wanted to feel with our hands something real
But we just can't seem to stop being what we're not
And fear you know it holds so tight
Makes me feel I've got no right to speak what I really think
