It started all in early september
When my godgiven little became a lot older Goodbyes seal my broken heart Hold on to your teardrops, you got a long way to go Did you get older doing nothing today? Don't you wanna stop complaining? If one is easy then hard is two Noone knows where you're heading to Once my private collection, always betting on you No consolation prizes Spit out your lies & chewing gum Cut off your hair yeah that's it! If you look like that I swear I'm gonna love you more I thought about this for a long time Never had the chance to try and make it better My heart is waiting for a new you And there's no other option on the schedule Love like ours should never die with years Once you start you can't ever go backwards Cause if dark is one then bright is two Noone knows where we're heading to No matter what it takes, never give up on you I want you to change it all I am gonna make it better No consolation prizes Spit out your lies & chewing gum Cut off your hair yeah that's it! If you look like that I swear I'm gonna love you more No consolation prizes Spit out your lies & chewing gum Cut off your hair yeah that's it! If you look like that I swear I'm gonna love you more More more more... |

Hook up with me, meet at the rally
Follow the shouting, I am longing for you Hook up with me, meet at the rally I waited so long, I couldn't find a cause Tired or wasted I think you're decent I waited so long, there'll be no decency no (don't you give me those) Shifty eyes pay attention Dirty talk talk talk quiet Just as long as you're gone It won't happen at all Remember the time we talked about everlastings? Don't you know we'll both fall to pieces too? April 22nd at the Avalon, you teased me Hook up with me, meet at the rally Shifty eyes pay attention Dirty talk talk talk quiet Just as long as you're gone It won't happen at all Don't go away we're so near Look around, you see There is nothing to say but the things I know I got nothing to say but the things I know Standing in line, I think you're pretty Lying on your bed, I think you're pretty too Young girl curl your hair at night Hook up with me, meet at the rally (don't you give me those) Shifty eyes pay attention Dirty talk talk talk quiet Just as long as you're gone It won't happen at all Shifty eyes pay attention Dirty talk talk talk louder Just as long as you're gone I won't leave you alone |

Where to go I had no idea
26.10 was the price to pay A messed up kid with no ideals at all I thought those 26.10 I shouldn't give'em away I remember this young guy died and I took his part He got far too many stitches on his pretty face Long time to see but I always thought us two would be serious I was looking around town, thinking the same as you I'm far gone but your long distance call And your capital letters keep me asking for more It's never been like that It's never been like that I'm far gone but your long distance call And your capital letters keep me asking for more Where to go I had no idea about it Most of the people do, there're only doing just fine I don't wanna stay in place no more, see Ain't doing well well well, I am only doing just fine long time no see, long time no say Got little to tell, I don't say much but I might Something always told me us two would be serious I am looking around town, thinking the same as you I'm far gone but your long distance call And your capital letters keep me asking for more It's never been like that It's never been like that I'm far gone but your long distance call And your capital letters keep me asking for more Long time no see... Long time no say... |

Quiet please, turn it off, shut it down Slow down your tan, I'm gonna miss you a lot There it goes... Your tears again... This is no fun... There it goes... Your tears again... As you walk away... Then it's hard to tell what kind, they do look alike Oh no that ain't what I said Oh no that ain't what I said Always trying to fall asleep to make my way out Looking at the ceiling, I'm counting the days There it goes... Your man is down to the bottom... There it goes... Your man is willing to cooperate... Then it's hard to tell you kindly that ain't what I'm like Guess I'd better find us a way out "One time too many" I said It's a long way to look alike That is what you say Slow down your tan. I'm gonna miss you a lot There it goes... Your ID's been stolen... They wave their hands goodbye... As you walk away... Then it's hard to tell who's kind, they do look alike Oh no that ain't what I said Oh no that ain't what I said Guess I'd better find us a way out "One time too many" I said It's a long way to look alike That is what you say |

So you've got your own little story to tell Some girls they ask to put them on your knees Slowdown, it's hard enough to get along Slowdown, we'll never ever get along That ain't what you had in mind No that ain't what you had in mind You don't know what you're doing
Let go It's so hard to fill me in You'd better run as fast as you can When your eyes are getting low Tomorrow'll say if you're lost and found Walking around thinking the same again To get to you I'll go down on my knees Last night I swear it wouldn't be the same Last night I swear it never was the same Two is for a while but then one has got to leave That's it! I ain't lying and I won't ask you please I'll tell you what I have in mind Let go It's so hard to fill me in You'd better run as fast as you can When your eyes are getting low Tomorrow'll say if you're lost and found I'll tell you what I have in mind It's so hard to fill me in You'd better run as fast as you can |

I had a fever to empty your closet
I didn't think it would be that hard You get to do what you want now Though we'll always have to do it apart I'm gonna scream 100 000 words Now that your fever is long gone Your wishes I couldn't tell, see I don't hear you talking but pretending Ain't that enough courtesy laughs I read my future in a fortune cookie Without any safety procedure in mind All of your things in the main hall You told me to get rid of them, so Sold an ugly necklace uptown I found out it was egyptian I tied up your letters Burried them all with delectation Ain't that enough courtesy laughs I hate that kind of wrong affection I ain't ready to talk at all It's all lies, misunderstandings I'm all alone in the main hall I'm gonna read every novel you read I'm gonna learn what's egyptian Pretend not to talk too much too Sacrifice all of my agenda I had a fever to empty your closet I didn't think it would be that hard You get to do what you want now Though we'll always have to do it apart I hate that kind of wrong affection I ain't ready to talk at all It's all lies, misunderstandings I'm all alone in the main hall |

Go out and tell the society
The talk of the town is on its way This is not bad only serious Do understand, don't turn your back on me Doesn't matter heads or tails People know my sins, I'm overwhelmed It's the darkest night in a long long time I¹ve been up all night and walked up and down the stairs No complaints no echoes I'm trying to be good, ain't trying to behave well Sometimes in the fall, fall, fall, fall There'll be nothing to keep you far from me Before I am long long long gone There'll be nothing to keep me away Every night at seven o'clock Every day at six in the morning too People calling me up here Didn't even take some time to look at them I'm long gone If you're walking around then I'll go out too You¹ve been awake all night I¹ve been lying on you thinking the same Lonely and forsaken Would you mind just to try a little less? Sometimes in the fall, fall, fall, fall There'll be nothing to keep you far from me Before I am long long long gone There'll be nothing to keep me away And it goes on and on and on, it's everlasting It's always the same when you're next to me Sometimes in the fall, fall, fall, fall There'll be nothing to keep me away Long gone Many eyes to see for me Only yours to cry on my ashes Long gone It's the darkest night and I'm far from you You¹ve been awake all night He's a Nobel Prize I said Too many eyes to see for me Only yours to cry on my ashes Long gone If the countdown on the Eiffel Tower Could show less than ten but more than a hundred Tired to look at your photographs That night through the phone you¹ve been asking for more Sometimes in the fall, fall, fall, fall There'll be nothing to keep you far from me Before I am long long long gone There'll be nothing to keep me away And it goes on and on and on, it's everlasting It's always the same when you're next to me Sometimes in the fall, fall, fall, fall There'll be nothing to keep me away |

Second to none, I wouldn't seriously get involved in a thing Bored of all the talking, you know it didn't change much I doubt your intentions are to make me feel any better today I even doubt tomorrow will be as easy as it was
I've changed you've changed it's not the same Tell me what 's the difference if I go back to normal again? Right away I should have known I'd look at you with opened eyes the morning after Did you cut your hair? Did you change anything these days? I heard a "liar" then I heard a laughter 20 calls a day it makes no difference at all Last year Last call You lost your ways Tell me what's the difference if I go back to normal again? Right away I thought I heard a lie I thought I heard a "liar" I doubt your intentions are to make me feel any better today I even doubt tomorrow will be as easy as it was I've changed You've changed It's not the same Tell me what's the difference if I go back to normal again? Right away I thought I heard a lie I thought I heard a "liar" |

Things are gonna change
And not for better Don't know what it means to me But it's hopeless, hopeless. Gotta get you home Could be with anyone I think of what IA?A’ve done Oh, you know it all. Everything, is everything The more I talk about it, the less I do control. Everything, means everything Can't understand a word, half of the stuff I'm sayin. The things I do possess Sometimes they own me too What they gonna do to me I think it's hopeless, hopeless, What I can't explain I'm sure you get it well Ah, since I always wanted I always wanted you. Everything, is everything The more I talk about it, the less I do control. Everything, means everything Can't understand a word, half of the stuff I'm sayin. Riding low, Riding low, Riding faster. This is what I want; look at what it did to me. Riding low, Riding low, Riding faster. This is what you want; this is what you get instead. Riding low, Riding low, Riding faster. This is what you want, I always wanted you. Everything, is everything The more I talk about it, the less I do control. Everything, means everything Can't understand a word, Half of the stuff I'm sayin. Riding low, Riding low, Riding faster. The more I talk about it, the less I do control. Riding low, Riding low, Riding faster. Can't understand a word, half of the stuff I'm sayin. |

These days are gone
Loud enough to hold on I think about the time we wasted I think about the years to come It's getting late and I can't call It's getting late to face it all I think about the time we wasted My loneliness has slowly grown I told you not to cross the line & leave me with your love for granted The letters from your broken heart I think I might have lost them somewhere Don't tell me 'bout your lies Don't tell me 'bout your secrets My love is easy You are everything I need Now your love is gone I want it safe & guaranteed Life is such a fine line Looking at the bright line I think about the time we wasted For someday I'll be coming too Tonight is dying on its own & now I got your love for granted It doesn't matter right or wrong As long as you are hiding somewhere Don't tell me 'bout your lies Don't tell me 'bout your secrets Even though we've said it all I would never let us fall with you Hang on to a little chance, you bet I'm in If it is for better I would never miss the call, it's true Hang on to a little chance, you bet I'm in |

Dropping off the radar Come, come Dropping off the radar Lost illusions, try the best that you can do You might get another chance Burn my leather coat, I need to change my suit You don't listen to a single word I say LIES + HIDDEN CODES = WHAT THEY DO And you're the victim of the crime Come, come Dropping off the radar Come, come Dropping off the radar Gettin' ready for a basic interview They told me not to cross the line I Lost the evidence, I'm running out of clues That much I would have sacrificed LIES + HIDDEN CODES = WHAT THEY DO And you're the victim of the crime There're too many fingers on the trigger Guess how to play this game before you lose it There's nothing I can do about it Come, come Dropping off the radar Come, come Dropping off the radar Lately, I'm not expecting you Please forgive me for stuff I didn't do I sure was gonna You're starting to fall... Fall in a deeper state... Watch out |

> If it's not with you
There is no thing that makes wanna settle down I thought it was a bad cough But never knew how much illusions hide a torture Lonesome & forsaken with no gratitude Who's goin' to tell, devotion's not your problem It's me against a wardrobe Focused on the pain to see how we can get along Doing things, getting better I'll move on Together The more I try the less I care about it Together And if you don't see yourself in the mirror, forget what you did Together The more I try the less I care about it I'm giving up my conscience for another The only one I want is you Things I wouldn't do Try to treat me like a friend, get another late call I'll lose you for another Cause you can't believe how much your pleasure is a factor Writing down the logic of my solitude As far as I'm concerned I'd like to leave it random I'm acting like an orphan Let me get to know you better to make me less attracted Doing things, getting better I'll move on Together The more I try the less I care about it Together And if you don't see yourself in the mirror, forget what you did Together The more I try the less I care about it I'm giving up my conscience for another The only one I want is you Parisians all gone Words they're all gone Let me tell you uh...uh...uh.... |

He told me a heart can't smile
if it's filled with tears Growing up I Thought "It's all gone" Now its comes back to me, again Ghetto uniform, collect calls That I can explain All the things i've ruined, abandoned They come back to me Holdin' on together I Try to set the night on fire Holdin' on together I Try to set the night on fire He told me for those who been drowned There is no refrain With one and only youth, a gospel I do what i can Holdin' on together I Try to set the night on fire Holdin' on together I Try to set the night on fire Though I've been trying To lose it all before it's gone Whatever comes, a heart can't smile if it's Filled with tears Though I've been waiting All I got to do is call I'm diving deeper, won't you get me out of this despair Holdin' on together I Try to set the night on fire Holdin' on together I Try to set the night on fire My happiness inside us Has nowhere else to fall Troubles hearing through the telephone It is filled with tears |

Everybody says I'm a lonesome kind of guy
I've been defeated by them all If they can find me I'm done Everybody knows that it really doesn't matter at all All the good things that I've done I'm up against the wall How come my file has been deleted If this is what they want I can tell you that the order's alphabetical Don't you get it Sooner or later I'll be recruited by someone Everybody knows that it really doesn't matter at all Everybody says I shouldn't mess with you no more If you see me on my own Drive on If I were dismissed I would've gotten much more If I wasn't that kind I wouldn't care at all Sooner or later Sooner or later Sooner or later I'll change my whole perspective If this is what they want I can tell you that the order's alphabetical Don't you get it Sooner or later I'll be recruited by someone Sooner or later (i say) sooner or later sooner or sonner & if it's for the better i'll change my whole perspective |
