I've had an adventure, not a hard life
Don't worry mum I would have been bored otherwise I would have turned to drugs Would have turned to love Picture you 19, looking at the face of a newborn I'm looking at you like i never saw anything I never saw anything before you I never saw anything but you I've had an adventure, not a hard life Don't worry dad I would have been bored otherwise It's fun to think of the things that you don't have Get the groceries put them on the window sill It's winter it'll do You're looking at me and i'm looking at you like i never saw anything I'm sorry for the choices you've had, It's better than - i'm sorry for the choices you never had |

She would move her legs under the table
I could see she knew the bass line She would tap her hands and feet to the clock radio She never missed a beat Cecille... won't you tell me what you need? She would put the water on, wait for it to boil Turn it off, forget to make the tea She would look into the mirror, waiting for numbers and signs Cecille... won't you tell me what you see? |

Woke up in the morning i drove from lawrence to omaha
Got there kinda early and still i checked out the local bar Cause bear to go is all new to me I would have sent you but you're only 19 I'm walking around in someone elses shoes I guess it's nothing new I flew around like a butterfly Walking for miles usually isn't my cup of tea Iswear to god i could walk these miles between you and me I'm under a fire ball And there's a cool, cool breeze Nothing but a moving yellow line between you and me I flew around like a butterfly I found a four leaf clover hidden in someone elses hand I should have let it be Left it to the land But it's cold out side I don't have a phone i can't find my clothes But it's alright. here alone |

what are you gonna do with all your lonely letters?
why don't you pack them up and send them all to me instead of sitting around and thinking what could be better don't you kinda wonder what i've got up my sleeve and while you sit around like a deer caught in the headlights 1500 miles i could do it in a day so take your undecided visions put them in the gas tank - overdrive- do it in a day i'm living on sunshine my baby's gone and died lost my heart in a bottle of wine i mourned and then i cried i'm living on moon light it's nice to see you in my dreams we dance all night when i wake up - i know you'll be gone and that's alright cause i have mourned and i have cried... ...i've got no reason to stay |

Instead of putting clothes on
You left the way you came I gather all your trinkets I head into the rain All your things were scattered All across the lawn Some day i'll come stay with you Until then you're just gone All your things are gone Instead of putting lights on I wander through the dark It's there i try to fool myself There's no such thing as hearts I don't want you gone |

You left a letter
It was meant to be thrown away Not to be read aloud at a smoky bar But wait a sec We could only smoke outside I knew this would piss you off To know it's dead So I went back in to the back of the room I read and smoked my cigarette Your pictures past And not so present hung for odyssey You took me to the prom You held my arm We even danced a little Your pictures past And not so present hung for odyssey You were metal I was goth Still we danced a little It's not your birthday it's your funeral What a shame Cause the gang's all here and we're toasting your name It's not your birthday it's your funeral What a shame Cause the gang's all here and we're toasting your name The understatement of the year award Goes to you cause the last thing that you said to me Was Hey I'll See You Later You walked me home like you always did A perfect end to good ole friends Yeah, i'll see you later It's not your birthday it's your funeral What a shame Cause the gang's all here and we're toasting your nameIt's not your birthday it's your funeral What a goddamn shame Cause the gang's all here and we're toasting your name |

You made it this far
Did it turn out how you thought Did you do all that you wanted Or do you not care Whether you live or die Whether you live or you die? What a shame All these years down the drain All the money, all the fame You got a big debt to your name And all your friends where are they? I think you know I think you know You're at a party! You're not invited ? They're all dressed up They're handing out prizes Oh, you're not invited Your mom hasn't called In a year and a day I guess your job is done I hope you found a way To blow away fate It's a long way What a shame All these years down the drain All the money, all the fame You got a big debt to your name And all your friends where are they? I think you know I think you know You're at a party! You're not invited ? They're all dressed up They're handing out prizes Oh, you're not invited You're at a party You're still not invited ? She decided to try it They're all dressed up Oh no, you're not invited |

Yeah I might be a son of a bitch
But I still don't get why you just won't call me back At night I just can't sleep so in the afternoon All I want to do is nap And there my mind can wander aimlessly and always end on you Until the daytime sleep takes over - let me guess - to dreams of you I guess all this time and space and quiet between us makes me feel alone Your arm must be so damn tired cause you just can't find the strength To pick up the phone So i tell myself that it's alright, i understand That we've had enough between us, we can still be friends Then i picture you, wandering through your day to day All the things you see, all the words you say And so, to you and me, i have a drink Alone. |

Thanks for leaving the light on
So i can find my way home Thanks for meeting me half way From the curb to the doorway This skin is meant to be lived in So why do i want out Why do i love to see you? See you scream out. If only i had wings i'd fly If only i had half a brain i'd know why If only i had the inkling I'd swim in the ocean Maybe i'll think before what i say Maybe i'll toss it all away Skip that, turn it around Thanks for leaving it all up to me Thanks for not trying to see What is hidden underneath My literal ground Maybe i'll think before what i say Maybe i'll toss it all away |
