I know you all tired of these wannabe thugs claiming the real be running, grabbing the steel Thinking they′re going to peel My niggas cap roaming the streets with black hats Chrome straps sipping on brew Ready to react of any nigga they see that nigga could be me Capital i.c.e. got a muther fucking .357 to put eleven holes in their chest Thinking they could test a real riderfrom the west
I roll flossin′ me and my girlfriend nina ross and the ghettos′ been good to me But you′ve got to take precautions Brothers get what they least expect it or neglect it You′ll never catch the dirty in the streets without protection Nowadays you got to pull shit Haters on some bullshit jumpin′ out of cadillacs and low lows with a full clip If your tool spits Shake the spot or get your duck on Cause if you press your luck on Stupid is what you′re stuck on.
That girl shelia got a daugter She be clubbing every night Sheila had her daughter young still that just ain′t right Plus she rides the white horse She used to ride my pony If i hit it now, i′d break it ′cause sheila′s just too bony.
Smoking speed released the lions I′m not lying i′m not sober I′m still trying Hiding the truth With substitutes a hundred proof A fuck up, face it One of l.a.′s wasted youth Label me as an enemy of the lost star My family′s not too happy with the trouble that i′ve caused See we be breaking the law Smoking on non-menthols thinking fast so i′m ready for any all out brawls And ya. Brothers get your hustle on Ballers and get your shit tight House parties get shot up And turned up before midnight Drive-bys and fistfights Zig zag and crack pipes There′s a fifty fifty chance That tonight will be your last night.
Now can you hear the cling-clang of my ball and chain gang? The sound of heavy metal that tastes like cellophone Collapsing every vein like umbrellas in heavy rain My passion is pain I do dirt to bury shame I′m victimized an instituion′s no solution A place where you′re defenseless and guilt′s the prosecution Where necks are bound into slipknots of shallow souls Walking narrow roads to be hung frok gallows poles Nobody knows me success has exposed me To narrow-minded souls with goals to overthrow me Suppose that i chose to live my life low-key Would you act like you could teach When there is nothing you can show me Don′t you understand i′m the head of the class A straight - A student not regretting the past
CHORUS: You see i′m ok now but i dont think it will last Because reality is something i can′t seem to grasp Candy-coated pain is like a ball and chain Pulling me closer to death, i feel closer to death now Candy-coated pain is like a ball and chain We only dig deeper by running away
It′s deeper than what it looks like We never got an equal shot so we took mics Packed the candy-coated pain in the first pipe That said my name and the candy-coated pain is the worst type You got it nice my every day is like your worst night The world is digging in my wounds screaming out i bet it hurts right? But it hurts more i got regrets but i′m glad i took the prize behind the fisrt door What′s the hurt for? Everybody hungers peace but they thirst war It′s crazy i′m not complaining because i probably would have tried better And if the people that i trusted weren′t lie tellers So keep your candy-coated pain to make the vibe better Now all the songs i′m writing sound like suicide letters
Repeat CHORUS
Guilty or innocent whatever pick the verdict Sometimes a perfect picture′s not so perfect Thought i could reverse the mixture it isn′t worth it Because my life seems to work no matter how bad curse it I only know a little but i feel so much The pain brings me down but it reveals the rush See i got my arms up just to shield the dust Because i lust for the things i can′t seem to touch Arrest me if i follow you You congest me i′m so hollow from your gift You infect me when i cut you Still the same still insane I think i love you (But fuck you)
If you got an itch to catch some havoc there′s mayhem in the plastic City of la la i mean the land of holy zsa sza The wood is hot and you can spot the flocks of people like sheep Those with dreadlocks to jocks with reeboks, fleeing hard rocks A la cafe, bambatta flashy fashion Imagine crashing bashes with bitches that be bad and wishing for the fame and recognition There on a mission for self, baby Were like the twelve, my tribe is crazy deep we got the beats that are hot were like clinique Foundation resonates when i speak And if by chance you catch it then listen, the wisdom Epic, open hitting, choking up you′ve done it now and woken up The giant scientist of hits that make you jump like a lunatic On pogo sticks, waving your fists So if you catching a fit I really don′t know but you better scram hurry in a double.
Chorus: It goes on and on and on hell rasing hollywood welcome to babylon It goes on and on and on the party don′t stop till the mysteries gone. I′ve seen it all, i′ll see it again i shake allot of hands but i don′t got allot of friends. It goes on, and on and on hell raising hollywood welcome to babylon.
Live from the city of lights sunny days and late nights Dope, designer drugs, porn stars and bar fights I drop. makes the bells rock i′m mr. shifty shellshock Call me the man of the hour in the land of the lost taking the money and the power Cxt, we hold our own all eyes on us, crazy rise rain like brimstone kicking up dust I grab the mike with a firm hold in a world of shattered goals, pot holes, broke fokes and bank roll Pole position Daddy rolling, rolling causing havoc so, ready set I′m more than set like morissette to maverick Gotta, she′s got to have it, habbit sick, i leave them stuck I′m getting high for a living not giving a fuck.
Chorus
I′m screaming out the call of the wild i′m speaking in tongues I am the child of the sun the power of one I beat the drums of the crazy town click It′s the third eye sitting on the tip of the pyramid flipped Now i see a little shorty illuminati front dead bodes in my trunk. Unraveling the source I travel in to self Gauge my wage and you try to debate my wealth The consequences linger and i′m fingering the perpetrators Hey yo, my nature was bread on the cross fadder It′s the seventh house Armageddon trudger ready for death it′s the brimstone slugger
Nothing comes from nowhere One thing remains and I swear Nail polish cellophane hair Bleached, blonde burned down to the brain I can′t complain there′s no shame in no fame And still it all remains the same And I want this game over It′s a fight to stay sober
Chorus: And I got the pills for the pain the pain (pills for the pain) Deep down inside I′ve got to chill and refrian (I′m going insane) These crazy thoughts are running round my brain They′re leading me to places decorated in flames Dec-dec-dec-dec-dec-dec-decorated in flames I′m highly decorated Decorated in flames, decorated in flames, decorated in flames
Who you motherfuckers think you are Crazy Town him ′em hard like our boy Bernard Clenched fists as I pace the yeard So many tattoos I ain′t got no room for scars Escaped them all maked a brother break the law Skip trial and escape tomorrow Til I end up in the courtroom White chucks, hair spiked up With my double fat laces on And I want this game over It′s a fight to let this life pass by you And try to stay sober Till the weed and the pipe with Ley come over Till we fail again its pales of hen So many tattoos the feds can′t see my skin So I think about my cell again And my friends do you realize what kind of hell I′m in
Chorus: And I got the pills for the pain the pain (pills for the pain) Deep down inside I′ve got to chill and refrian (I′m going insane) These crazy thoughts are running round my brain They′re leading me to places decorated in flames Dec-dec-dec-dec-dec-dec-decorated in flames I′m highly decorated Decorated in flames, decorated in flames, decorated in flames
Tire tracks running down my veins Dirty black slacks with the chrome hearts chaing Got a record so dope they got to cut it the cane I know you konw the face do you know the name I know you seen the stars in magazines Got drug dealers, street hookers, crooks and fiends Me I′m hooked on Kush smoking northern green Catching cheap thrills off the pills I fiend
No time for words just choose sides No fear cause no one can hide No room to keep this inside I′m on the front line yelling out the battle cry
Steppin′ with my Armageddon, weapon I′ll wet ′em and let ′em Step again, Armageddon weapon will wet ′em again Steppin′ with my Armageddon, weapon I′ll wet ′em and let ′em Step again, step again
I′m sick of waiting and hearing this instigation It′s time to take over the station (and get y′all pissed off) It′s like my patience it′s worse then the situation So I keep a straight face and scream (all you all get lost) It′s not society nah, can′t beat sobriety Something inside of me is keeping me down It′s cause you lie to me and take away my privacy I used to stay quiet but look at me now
No time for words just choose sides (no) No fear cause no one can hide (no) No room to keep this inside (so where you at?) Front line yellin′ out the battle cry I thought I heard the battle cry I could have sworn I heard the battle cry I thought I heard the battle cry

Chorus: I was a skull in the ground now I′m a star in the sky I went from crawling around to being able to fly Saw no future for me until I opened my eyes I was a skull in the ground now I′m a star in the sky
I tried love, heaven, hope and takin′ chances And all I got were broken dreams and failed romances Suffered to a life of skin covered in scratches Looking for the light but I could never find the passage Tension, stress, pain yeah you best believe it Nose bleeding from my false way to relieve it Enough confusion to make serenity sick All my fake friends became my enemies quick Everyday I found another way to make excuses Took the ropes I was supposed to climb and made nooses Being stupid always giving in to the myth That life wasn′t even worth living like this A grown man trapped inside a young man′s skin With resentment very very deep within On a mission to end up either dead or in jail No wonder everybody always said that I would fail
Chorus x2
I found myself locked in a cell and I was just another number The thin ice was cracking and I was sinking under ... in with sorrow Worried ′bout today dread would happen by tomorrow Who knows the answers well nobody knows for certain The evil things I did when I chose to close the curtain Perhaps I should relapse quit relapse quit Force it back and relax with a sack of good shit Now I find myself in a candlelit depression Using sex like drugs just to handle my aggression
Chorus x2
i had a little, had a lot, had it all and then I lost it Stars are in my eyes and skeletons are in my closet Now when I open my eyes and I rise from the dead Take control of my soul cause the lies are in my head The right way is the left way and the left way is wrong So I′m left with the right way and the right way is long So for once in my life I truly feel like I belong So I′ll appreciate today and every day until I′m gone
Chorus x2
I was a skull in the ground now I′m a star in the sky...
Dancing with the devil in the 13th floor Non stop knocking on heaven′s door Thinking faster flirting with disaster plastered I′m your puppet master pushin′ proper data Watch the city steal your soul as the drugs take control and the problems of the world put your life on hold You should have known by now that it just don′t stop You like that rock Hip-hop you make me crotch.
Chorus: I got a lollipop porn bitch Dead on arrival a hardcore sex bitch turned suicidal All caught up now taking my chances playing my song While the devil dances ′round me beggin′ me to play along.
Now over the years i′ve learned to love the pain I′m what you call a lady killer with the gift of game Triple x true that you do dat dat Let it ride bring it back over 24 tracks We′re gonna rock the fuckin′ block tonight we′re gonna rock that shit gonna make it right Diggi, diggi, damn right, we′s dynomite So we can do this or you can do what you like I grab the mic and make it mine i grab the mic and make it hype So we can do this, or you can do what you like.
Chorus
Riding on the 3rd rail, taking risk, life is risky The "e" stands for epic and the "s" stands for shifty So let the good times roll, there′s no controlling us Walking on water and kicking up dust The boisterous, causing panic in the land of lust The shellshock lollipop crazy down to make your body rock Sugar i love the way your body talks Now, whoever said that sex was overrated Love leaves me devastated, life′s so fuckin′ complicated Shifty say what, epic′s a beat slut and i got so many rhymes i can′t keep my mouth shut.
Chorus: Now ladies come, ladies go out my revolving door Some ladies never come back Most come back for more i′ve got a house in the hills With a door that spins Goes in and out, out and in ′round ′round again.
I live a life these player haters would love to be living since a kid I′ve been surround by beautiful women and slippen′ in them to win them The unforgiven Still some thing′s missing, cuz deep inside i′m suffering of a lonely heart condition Wishing I could find a girl that would take me away from the chaos of the city and the everyday part that i play Tell me why lay low, why say no when i got girls serenading at my window Ladies good to go We′s major league, the new breed no so-so. Highly advanced and got the game to get in and girls Pants and romance her stone Cuz i more than hold my own they call me shifty capone I make them moan Yes, i′m the one between the sheets I amaze and stun ain′t no need for me to brag about the way that i′m hung Let′s just say i got the skills to get the flyest girl sprung Or to take and more An older lady feel young.
Chorus
I keep my girls in rotation door rotating You looking for a good time I′m always on vacation You could stop by baby If you want to try your luck But don′t waste my time, unless you′re doown to fuck, unless your coming back for more Well then you know what′s up You know the routine Girl, you′re not the one You′re just a one night fling Some ass to hold casanova over till the right girl pass, i′ll drop this lifestyle fast Cuz what i′m looking is the one that will last and make my present past My adolescence surpassed by the will to chill I′m looking for something real In a world of fake ho′s in high heels I′ll drop that hot wax on you nipples causing trouble and when you ride me Yo′ll i′ll be throwing that triple double My sex drives kicking i′m sexually exploring So many possibilities It seems my life can never get boring Cuz i′m not fucking around I′ll run down the right way i′ll rock your world nightly So, can i hit it lightly? Yo girl i like it like that let me hit from the back I′m a natural aphrodisic better know as a mac.
Tripple X bottle, role models from hell Livin′ our dreams we like to scream and yell White boys, B-Boys raised in the gutter I said when I′d grow up I′d be a bad motherfucker Nothings gonna stop me now, I′m breaking the rules I′m gonna do it if it′s not allowed Thought I wouldn′t when I would, would when I wouldn′t I did it for the reason everybody said I couldn′t I′m putting my best foot down like what now Lets take it to the bridge and jump the fuck down Fuck it like a clown jump off a building in a bucket The worst is yet to come, here it comes so bum rush it
Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to Would you change the way you live if I told you to Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to Well take it to the bridge and jump the fuck off (2x)
Are you ready to jump? Are you ready to leap? Well the head rush is heavy but for many too deep ??? That were speeding up the world to keep the timing on beat It keeps reminding everybody who′s a pyrimid freak The pyrimid eye, the figure inside The leader that you follow the day that you die We always bring it live which makes it easy to choose Ain′t now greiving or consoling or singing the blues So when the levee breaks just remember the drums And when the levee breaks don′t forget how to run Remember what I′ve done and everything I say I′m living proof that you can jump and live to try it again
Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to Would you change the way you live if I told you to Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to Well take it to the bridge and jump the fuck off (2x)
I′m torn like Korn playing follow the leader In a baggy pair of dickies and a dirty wife beater Should the rate a CD like a movie in a theater Should they blame it on me? I say we blame it on you Or blame it on the world there′s no excuse for the things we do Life′s a maze I′ll be amazed if I find my way through One, two, tell me whatchya gonna You gonna jump off the bridge like I told ya to That′s right, bum rush the stage Whatchya made of, how much more can you take Half of my life′s been one big mistake But no ones gonna take my place One, two, tell me whatchya gonna do Your gonna jump off the bridge like I told you to That′s right, bum rush the stage What you made of? how much can you take
Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to Would you change the way you live if I told you to Would you jump off a bridge if I told you to Well take it to the bridge and jump the fuck off (2x)
Monkey see and monkey do Monkey see and monkey do Monkey see and monkey do Don′t try to be like me you gotta be like you If you can hear this your catchin′ the contact If you can hear this your bumpin′ the sound If your in the earshot your catchin′ the contact If you can hear this your bumpin′ the sound
Jump off a bridge if I told you to Jump off a bridge if I told you to Take it to the bridge and jump...
Now let me state it for the record I′m jaded but when you looked at me I couldn′t escape it I really hate it when I′m out of control But baby after the show My mind just wouldn′t let go Tell me was it a hallucination That made me feel so alone And even though I have never met you before I can′t get you out of my head Now I′m pouring out my heart for you
Chorus: I never meant to hurt you so bad I′m just trying to get over you I hope you never meant to hurt me so bad Don′t you feel the same way too
So now I sit and think of what I can say When you look at me to re-ignite the connection I′m gonna take you to a place beyond time Somewhere that we′ve never been Someplace that I couldn′t find Tell me if you′re feeling my addiction Without you I just can′t disguise How much I need to see your face one more time I can′t get you out of my head Now I′m pouring out my heart for you
Chorus: I never meant to hurt you so bad I′m just trying to get over you I hope you never meant to hurt me so bad Don′t you feel the same way too
Dreamlands of danger Darkside pleasures bad behavior Dreamlands of danger Darkside pleasures at their best (x2)
Punk rock, shell toes horns and halos Wicked white wings and pointed tails Devil′s eyes and nine inch nails Nocturnal renegades the enternal drug raid I go by the name of mr. shifty switchblade Getting paid in the shade as lyrics ricochet, of the walls from the celling to the floor Off the door and down the hall I′m evil like knievel Kicking white trash Psycho cerebral, palsy ballsy bad ass Dress in black from the wrong side of the tracks Crazy town Yo. we strike like deep impact.
Chorus: Why can′t you see? i cannot feel till you bring me down Dream lands of danger Darkside pleasures Bad behavior Dreamlands of danger Darkside pleasures at their best.
My subconscience launches me into evil territory I′m surrounded by voyeures and crack smoking lawyers No shame, burnt lips Tripping on acid rain Legally insane, deranged, some people, never change.

Nasty na na , ha, ha darkside marijuana. Fueled of the drama Drifting on the darkside I′m the black eye bomber Do what i do on a darkside rendezvous Raising hell, out the shell of fantasies i never tell Dispersin′ untamed perversion My bad brain′s working Circle jerking, rocking riddles Sex pistol, sexperts acting uncivil.

Now people say i′m jinxed i got some kind of voodoo hex Life is so complex there′s no telling what could happen next Life on the edge, fuels the sickness in my head it imbeds the type of thoughts that got a lot of brothers dead The smarter brother knows to keep his foes close and i′m the type of brothers that smarter than most A cold hearted overdose of lyrical antidotes The cure to make sure my karma can′t take me down Up to the same old tricks i wonder if i′ll stick around is a penny really lucky If you find it on the ground? What′s the problem with this town? I can′t figure it out my karma′s crashing down in the form of a black cloud.
Chorus: I′ve got a little black cloud, that follows me everywhere i go it takes over me (x2)
I′m sick I′ve got an ill disposition my intentions are pure but there′s a cure for my condition My decisions put me in the wrong positions Chasing pipe dreams of fame and recognition The epic Not only a name a definition My game remains no matter the pain I stay the charmer The don of karma I navigate like the dalai lama I ain′t a saint but i′ve got joi de vie and i′m the one to blame if the cloud rains on me I can′t complain about it or even let regret Provoke the energy it takes For me to get upset A bad boy since birth so i can′t forget what goes around comes around and it ain′t got me yet I′ve gotten wise in my age and tame the threat of my rage I′ve got allot to learn and i′ve got money to spend to pretend is reaping more than sewing ever could mend.
Chorus: Trade my torches for a dime. The pressure′s fading away now. Black cloud′s lifted for the light the pressure′s fading away now. A thousands cigarettes won′t change the way we feel The pressure′s fading now, can you bare the though of knowing truth? Knowing truth?
I was rapping in the rain hoping that my luck would change and if there′s any truth to all those all sayings Cuz if i kill a spider would my house catch on fire? If i walk under a ladder would it matter? I tend to laugh when black cats cross my path Break mirrors in half just to test the aftermath Now here comes the rain I protect my pain Trying to make sense of these crazy things I′m a diamond in the rough could i suffer enough? I′m getting high for a living not giving a fuck These hard times got me stuck, stuck in a jam I′m the monkey on your back and the crack in the dam Disastrous Took time to master this and the past is just a map to capture this In the darkness i′m force to adapt to this I would change the past if i could have one wish.
Chorus: Trade my torches for a dime. The pressure′s fading away now. Black cloud′s lifted for the light the pressure′s fading away now. A thousands cigarettes won′t change the way we feel The pressure′s fading now, can you bare the though of knowing truth? Knowing truth?
Now in these cynical times Sterotypical minds Got me falling from my pinnacle the minute I climb Now these subliminal thoughts got individuals blind I′m trying to look beyond the lies Just to see what I′ll find I′m like a flower in a cave Another hour in the maze And I′ll cower to the power of my criminal ways The sun is shining but I′m catching minimal rays It′s time for me to grow out of this childish phase My life is like a battle that I′ll probably never win ′Cause I keep thinking big and risking everything Life′s a challenge and I wonder if I′ll ever find the balance Mixed emotions and confusion topped off with many talents
Chorus: Sometimes I wonder if I′ll ever change Can I change Will I change Or am I always gonna be the same I blame the world for making me such a freak But the world wants to blame it on me (my life is twisted)
My finger′s pointing in the mirror I′m the one now I see my shadow in the sun dial Am I really out of change Put my freedom in a cage Slow down Man I got a son now There′s nothing new thay all said it And I know it but I had to go throught it myself I′m hard-headed That′s the only way I′ll learn Get caught in the fire ther′s no escaping the burn And it burns Change this Change that Change is full of lies I remain the same cat wear a good disquise Living life loking through my third blind crooked eye So if I change I′d be changing for the worst wouldn′t I?
Chorus: Sometimes I wonder if I′ll ever change Can I change Will I change Or am I always gonna be the same I blame the world for making me such a freak But the world wants to blame it on me (my life is twisted)
I wanna run but if I run I′m only running form myself Would it be easier if I were someone else I′m like a child playin′ with matches that′s never beeen burned Relearning all the lessons that I′ve already learned On a highway to a destinatin I′ve earned So many exits, but I′ve never bothered to turn I′m like a piece of shard glass laying on a frame of a window That was broken by the bricks of pain Sometimes I feel just like the devil′s guinea pig He′s watching me just to see how deep I can dig I admit I′m fucked up and got a lot to learn So now I′m dancing in the ashes of the bridge I′ve burned
Chorus: Sometimes I wonder if I′ll ever change Can I change Will I change Or am I always gonna be the same I blame the world for making me such a freak But the world wants to blame it on me (my life is twisted)
Catch a fire, fire it up Corrupt stirring it up It′s burning hot, drifting Hitting every slot With a drop kick, it′s toxic Trouble, like your girl in a mosh pit I′ve lost it and that the only way that we rock shit Banging heads and ripping threads If i wasn′t rocking shows I′d be better of dead With a one two One word can destroy your whole crew And that′s toxic
Chorus: Toxic, loud and anxious Crazy town′s toxic With that, rock your block shit Toxic, popping more lip We love to talk shit Rocking you block with that straight out the block shit, toxic
A buddha, ballistic Blacklisted twist of faith My vocal′s fatal As naughty block concoctions rock your cradle I thought i wait ′til the time was right to ignite Cause people like me we only come out at night I rock the main line and party with fine bitches Which is a dirty job But somebody′s got to do it so, who the crew with? More has than vivid lyrics explicit So fuck the critics We leave them hanging like inxs.

Toxic thresholds of columbian gold You can′t roll how we roll We possess you soul and push the panic Is it godly or satanic? Toxic or organic? Manic minds refined or frantic Just the way we planned it See we be stomping around the planet and we stand alone We infiltrate your chromosomes No clone our dna has got a strain of it′s own and it′s toxic .
I used to hideaway and only try to save myself From falling in love, or staying up on the shelf I was afraid to walk the streets alone, or by your side Just waiting up for something that could save my life
But there′s the way out Stuck inside my head now Headed for a break down When I should be headed for the door

Breakdown, rebound This could be my last goodbye You crossed your heart, I hope to die
And I can′t deny your eyes You know I tried to read between the lines I saw a warning sign And then you threw me up against the wall Who said that it′s better to have loved and lost? I wish that I had never loved at all
No rewinds No second times And I won′t break I won′t waste Everything you left behind So don′t follow Just let it go The weather′s, been better Don′t let it be another...
Breakdown, rebound This could be my last goodbye You crossed your heart, I hope to die
And I can′t deny your eyes You know I tried to read between the lines I saw a warning sign And then you threw me up against the wall Who said that it′s better to have loved and lost? I wish that I had never loved at all
All the nights I spent sitting at home while you were out there on your own All the nights I waited by the phone while you were going it alone And all your different faces and all your different ways of making everything a mess And all I′m saying is that all your different places and all the complications laid to rest
And I can′t deny your eyes You know I tried to read between the lines I saw a warning sign And then you threw me up against the wall Who said that it′s better to have loved and lost? I wish that I had never loved And I can′t deny your eyes You know I tried to read between the lines I saw a warning sign And then you threw me up against the wall Who said that it′s better to have loved and lost? I wish that I had never loved at all (Never loved at all)
Grown up She just turned 16 Stuck in the moment Dead at the scene And it′s on tonight This is the life that you wanted, right? So turn off all the lights Dressed up just like a movie star At all the parties they′ll know who you are Wouldn′t it be great, to be fashionably late? So why don′t you wait, till you′re sedated
Don′t it feel like something′s not right in his kiss tonight?
Yeah what I′m saying is do you, do you want to lose it all? Cause this is more than just a dance hall drug You can′t wait to fall in love All I′m saying is do you, do you want to learn to fly? Then you should pack it up and say goodbye Cause when the push comes to the shove It′s just a dance hall drug
Step in and you can lock the door The candles are lit and the clothes on the floor You could take a chance on finding romance Now you′re holding hands But he′s got other plans Tick-tock, the clock is turning red The room won′t stop spinning and thoughts in your head And it′s too late You feel like you′re making a big mistake You should′ve waited
Don′t it feel like something′s not right in his kiss tonight?

Today is the day, the worst day of my life. You sulk until it hurts me. I don′t know why. The cost of misery is at an all-time high. I keep it hidden. Close to the surface, inside.
I′m learning to fall. I can′t hardly breathe. When I′m going down don′t worry ′bout me. Don′t try this at home. Pretend you don′t see. I don′t wanna know that you know it should have been me.
Could you be with him? Or was it just a lie? He doesn′t get you like I do. And you don′t know why. You change your clothes and your hair, but I can′t change your mind. oh, I′m uninvited. So unrequited, now.
I′m learning to fall. I can′t hardly breathe. When I′m going down don′t worry ′bout me. Don′t try this at home. Pretend you don′t see. I don′t wanna know that you know it should have been me.
Words screaming in my head. Why did you leave? And I can′t stop dreaming. Watching you and him. When it should have been. It should have been me.
Today is the day, the worst day of my life.

I′m flying down the fast lane Doing ninety-five Ninety things on my brain Don′t know where the hell I′m going But I′m going after you
I′m jumping on the last train Got this crazy kind of feeling that I can′t explain Don′t know where the hell I′m going But I′m going after you
And I know you think I′m crazy And I dress up like I′m poor I don′t do dinner and movies But if I showed up at your door
Would you give me one more minute?

It was raining on Wednesday Doing ninety-five Ninety things left to say Told myself to keep on driving ′Cause I left my heart with you
I never thought that I could walk away Every second, I′m regretting that I didn′t stay How can I just keep on driving When I left my heart with you?
You think all my friends are crazy And I know you hate my car Well, I don′t drive a Mercedes Would it be that hard
To just give me one more minute The story′s far from finished We could fill in all pages I′m feeling sick Girl, you′re so contagious Just wanna say I miss you I caught it when I kissed you And I′ve been through all the stages I′m feeling sick Girl, you′re so contagious I′m feeling sick Girl, you′re so contagious

Found my way to the highway, I don′t wanna tell you the state I′m in I′ve had too much to smoke, too much to drink, where have I been? I feel like the stars are getting closer and the sky is closing in And I don′t know where to begin
We′re all looking for something, to take away the pain
Me, and you, and my medication (Making the best of it) Love is just a chemical creation (Will it be permanent?) Synthetic sensation Me, you, and my medication
The way back to the right track, maybe you can help me find the door Is it too much to ask, too much too fast, too much to ignore? It feels like your body′s getting closer but you seem so far away Medicine make it ok
We′re all looking for someone, to take away the pain
Me, and you, and my medication (Making the best of it) Love is just a chemical creation (Will it be permanent?) Synthetic sensation Me, you, and my medication
So can you feel it? Do you feel it coming down? You gotta get up Can you get up off the ground? Can you hear it? Can you hear me screaming? So can you feel it? Do you feel it coming down? You gotta get up Can you get up off the ground? I wanna hear it Wanna hear you breathing
We′re all addicted to something, that takes away the pain
Me, and you, and my medication (Making the best of it) Love is just a chemical creation (Will it be permanent?) Synthetic sensation Me, you, and my medication
Even though you′re gone and far away I feel you all around I think about it every single day You got away somehow
I can′t sleep, it′s hard to breathe And I still feel you next to me Now I can see
The first one is the worst one When it comes to a broken heart Your first love Yeah, you′re so young And you feel like a falling star There′s a fire in the city That′s burning out tonight And you′re breathing But you′re barely alive The first one is the worst one When it comes, when it comes to a broken heart
Spinning like a movie in my head I′ve seen a thousand times I′ve learned to take it hard and fall instead I′m sittin′ safe on the sidelines
Lost days, pictures fade Somehow you′re still miles away It′s safe to say
The first one is the worst one When it comes to a broken heart Your first love Yeah, you′re so young And you feel like a falling star There′s a fire in the city That′s burning out tonight And you′re breathing But you′re barely alive The first one is the worst one When it comes, when it comes to a broken heart
′Cause I would walk through a thunderstorm just to kiss you, I′m out here on my own, Better now than I was before, But I miss you and I want you to know
I can′t sleep, it′s hard to breathe And I still feel you next to me And I can see, yeah
The first one is the worst one When it comes to a broken heart Your first love Yeah, you′re so young And you feel like a falling star There′s a fire in the city That′s burning out tonight And you′re breathing But you′re barely alive The first one is the worst one When it comes, when it comes to a broken heart [x2]
When I was younger I used to be wild As wild as an elephant′s child No one could hold me down No one could keep me around Now it′s your turn, take a shot Baby show me everything that you got Maybe you can keep me alive Maybe you can get in my mind But it′s only a matter of time
Before I run far away I need to take a holiday Maybe it′s a fall from grace I gotta find a new place A holiday I′ll set off on a new chase I gotta see a new face I need to take a holiday
My father, he was always wise As wise as an elephant′s eyes He couldn′t hold me down He couldn′t keep me around So are you gonna take your shot? It′s the only one that you got Maybe I′ll go out on a limb Maybe I′ll jump in for a swim When the lights go dim
You know I′ll run far away I need to take a holiday Maybe it′s a fall from grace I gotta find a new place A holiday I′ll set off on a new chase I gotta see a new face I need to take a holiday (Need to take a holiday)
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
A new start I′ve broken too many hearts And I don′t have any clue where to go I don′t know But maybe I′ll be back someday after my holiday
When I was younger I used to be wild As wild as an elephant′s child And I don′t think I′ll ever change I think I′m gonna stay the same
I′ll run away I need to take a holiday (need to take a holiday) Maybe it′s a fall from grace I gotta find a new place A holiday I′ll set off on a new chase (set off on a new chase) I gotta see a new face I need to take a holiday
A new start I′ve broken too many hearts And I don′t have any clue where to go I don′t know But maybe I′ll be back someday after my holiday
All of the wasted time The hours that were left behind The answers that we′ll never find They don′t mean a thing tonight
Top down in the summer sun The day we met was like a hit-and-run And I still taste it on my tongue (taste it on my tongue) The sky was burning up like fireworks You made me want you oh so bad it hurt But girl in case you haven’t heard
I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung over I’ll love you forever, forever is over We used to kiss all night, now it’s just a bar fight So don’t call me crying Say hello to goodbye Cause just one sip would make me sick I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung over I’ll love you forever, but now it’s over
Hot sweat and blurry eyes We’re spinning round a rollercoaster ride The world stuck in black and white You drove me crazy every time we touched Now I’m so broken that I can’t get up Oh girl you make me such a lush
I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung over I’ll love you forever, forever is over We used to kiss all night, now it’s just a bar fight So don’t call me crying Say hello to goodbye Cause just one sip would make me sick I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung over I’ll love you forever, but now it’s over
All the time I wasted on you All the bullshit you put me through Checking into rehab cause everything that we had Didn’t mean a thing to you I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung over I’ll love you forever, but now I′m sober
I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung over I’ll love you forever, forever is over We used to kiss all night, now it’s just a bar fight So don’t call me crying Say hello to goodbye Cause just one sip would make me sick I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung over I’ll love you forever, but now it’s over
Now it’s over Can taste it on my tongue Now It’s over…
I′m wearing thin I couldn′t tell you the city I′m in The streets and the buildings And places I′ve been Or when the stars go when it′s daylight again Or where the time went Oh, who can save me now?
My life in the rearview I′m runnin′ from Jesus Don′t know where I′m going to I got nothin′ to lose I′m fightin′ my demons Been lookin′ for someone like you I′ve been lookin′ for someone like you
So sing me a song I know all the words to And I′ll sing along Could you be my savior? When I′ve been out here too long And I′ve just been lookin′ for somewhere to belong Barely holdin′ on So can you save me now?
My life in the rearview I′m runnin′ from Jesus Don′t know where I′m going to I got nothin′ to lose I′m fightin′ my demons Been lookin′ for someone like you I′ve been lookin′ for someone like you
When the stars explode And I′m all alone When they start to see the smoke When I finally burn out I′ll need someone to carry me home Safe and sound
My life in the rearview I′m runnin′ from Jesus Don′t know where I′m going to I got nothin′ to lose I′m fightin′ my demons Been lookin′ for someone like you
My life in the rearview I′m runnin′ from Jesus Don′t know where I′m going to I got nothin′ to lose I′m fightin′ my demons Been lookin′ for someone like you I′ve been lookin′ for someone like you I′ve been lookin′ for someone like you
Paper bags and plastic hearts All are belongings in shopping carts It′s goodbye But we got one more night Let′s get drunk and ride around And make peace with an empty town We can make it right
Throw it away Forget yesterday We′ll make the great escape We won′t hear a word they say They don′t know us anyway Watch it burn Let it die Cause we are finally free tonight
Tonight will change our lives It′s so good to be by your side We′ll cry We won′t give up the fight We′ll scream loud at the top of our lungs And they′ll think it′s just cause we′re young And we′ll feel so alive
Throw it away Forget yesterday We′ll make the great escape We won′t hear a word they say They don′t know us anyway Watch it burn Let it die Cause we are finally free tonight
All of the wasted time The hours that were left behind The answers that we′ll never find They don′t mean a thing tonight
Throw it away Forget yesterday We′ll make the great escape We won′t hear a word they say They don′t know us anyway
Throw it away Forget yesterday We′ll make the great escape We won′t hear a word they say They don′t know us anyway
Throw it away Forget yesterday We′ll make the great escape We won′t hear a word they say They don′t know us anyway Watch it burn Let it die Cause we are finally free tonight
Today is a winding road that′s taking me to places that I didn′t want to go Whoa (whoa, whoa, whoa) Today in the blink of an eye I′m holding on to something and I do not know why I tried
I tried to read between the lines I tried to look in your eyes I want a simple explanation For what I′m feeling inside I gotta find a way out Maybe there′s a way out
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you′re unlike any other? You′ll always be my thunder, and I said Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors I don′t wanna ever love another You′ll always be my thunder So bring on the rain And bring on the thunder
Today is a winding road Tell me where to start and tell me something I don′t know Whoa (whoa, whoa, whoa) Today I′m on my own I can′t move a muscle and I can′t pick up the phone I don′t know (I don′t know, I don′t know, I don′t know)
And now I′m itching for the tall grass And longing for the breeze I need to step outside Just to see if I can breathe I gotta find a way out Maybe theres a way out
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you′re unlike any other? You′ll always be my thunder, and I said Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors I don′t wanna ever love another You′ll always be my thunder So bring on the rain
Yeah I′m walking on a tightrope I′m wrapped up in vines I think we′ll make it out But you just gotta give me time Strike me down with lightning Let me feel you in my veins I wanna let you know how much I feel your pain
Today is a winding road that′s taking me to places that I didn′t want to go Whoa
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you′re unlike any other? You′ll always be my thunder, and I said Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors I don′t wanna ever love another You′ll always be my thunder
And I said Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you′re unlike any other? You′ll always be my thunder So bring on the rain Oh baby bring on the pain And listen to the thunder
I remember what you wore on the first day You came into my life and I thought hey you know, this could be something
′Cause everything you do and words you say You know that it all takes my breath away And now I′m left with nothing
So maybe it′s true that I can′t live without you And maybe two is better than one But there′s so much time to figure out the best of my life And you′ve already got me coming undone And I′m thinking two is better than one
I remember every look upon your face The way you roll your eyes, the way you taste You make it hard for breathing
′Cause when I close my eyes and drift away I think of you and everything′s okay I′m finally now believing
That maybe it′s true that I can′t live without you And maybe two is better than one But there′s so much time to figure out the best of my life And you′ve already got me coming undone And I′m thinking two is better than one Yeah, yeah
I remember what you wore on the first day You came into my life and I thought, hey
Maybe it′s true that I can′t live without you Maybe two is better than one There′s so much time to figure out the best of my life And you′ve already got me coming undone
And I′m thinking, ooh, I can′t live without you ′Cause, baby, two is better than one There′s so much time to figure out the best of my life But I figured out with all that′s said and done Two is better than one, two is better than one
I want to scream, until no sound comes out and you′ve learned your lesson I want to swallow these pills to get to sleep So I don′t have to make a bad impression
I need to start to be myself Cause I′m sick of everybody else
I won′t let you bring me down It′s here and now I′m breaking out I will learn to love again But I will stand a broken man
I wanna run, but only far enough to make you miss me I wanna take back all the shit that I have done But I guess you were better off without me
I need to start to be myself Cause I′m sick of everybody else
I won′t let you bring me down It′s here and now, I′m breaking out I will learn to love again But I will stand a broken man
I took one big step and I looked away And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say I′m always too late You never got your story straight I′m always up late I think I′m everything you hate
I took one big step and I looked away And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say I′m always too late You never got your story straight I′m always up late I think I′m everything you hate
I took one big step and I looked away And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say I′m always too late You never got your story straight I′m always up late I think I′m everything you hate
I won′t let you bring me down It′s here and now, I′m breaking out I will learn to love again But I will stand a broken man
(I took one big step and I looked away, and I thought of all the things that I wanted to say) I won′t let you bring me down (I′m always too late, you never got your story straight, I′m always up late, I think I′m everything you hate) It′s here and now I′m breaking out (I took one big step and I looked away, and I thought of all the things that I wanted to say) I will learn to love again (I′m always too late, you never got your story straight) But I will stand a broken man
Alas my love, ye do me wrong to cast me out discourteously, And I have loved you for so long delighting in your company... Greensleeves was all my joy, Greensleeves was my delight, Greensleeves was my heart of gold, And who but Lady Greensleeves...
The past is so familiar But that′s why you couldn′t stay Too many ghosts, too many haunted dreams Beside you were built to find your own way... But after all these years, I thought we′d still hold on But when I reach for you and search your eyes I see you′ve already gone... That′s OK I′ll be fine I′ve got myself, I′ll heal in time But when you leave just remember what we had... There′s more to life than just you I may cry but I′ll make it through And I know that the sun will shine again Though I may think of you now and then... Can′t do a thing with ashes But throw them to the wind... Though this heart may be in pieces now You know I′ll build it up again and I′ll come back stronger than I ever did before Just don′t turn around when you walk out that door... That′s OK I′ll be fine I′ve got myself, I′ll heal in time And even though our stories at the end I still may think of you now and then...
Wish you were here me oh my countryman wish you where hereWish you were here don′t you know the stove is getting colder and i miss you like hell and i′m feeling blueI′ve got feelings for you babe do you still feel the same from the first time i laid my eyes on you i felt joy of living i saw heaven in your eyes in your eyesI miss your laugh i miss your smile i miss everything about you every second′s like a minute every minute′s like a day when you′re far awayWish you were here the stove is getting colder baby wish you were here a battlefield of love and fear
My diamond?s clouded over where it used to shine like light, And the day keeps running faster, Into the arms of night... The stiches on the tapestry say, Everything in time, Will find it?s way home again, But I?m tired of crying... No Second Chances Don?t knock on my door There won?t be any answer I won?t be here no more... This house we had together Might still be in its place But the rest of this is much too hard to face, There?ll be No Second Chance... Lovely moonlit hours we spent Walking on the beach, We?d gaze up all the stars, I swear they were in our reach... But time... it went on, Minutes... they ran too fast. Like you they were gone... Into the past...
Is it powers of intuition? Is it insecurity? You know I can read your mind and You have been deceiving me...
Which face wears the masque this evening? When will your true colours show? Will they be as black as shadows Hiding hearth the rainbow...
Had my heart on a silver chain With the words engraved "I loved you"... Like a swan that was lost at sea I lost all of me To you... Now I see the writing on the wall...
Paranoia or perception? Put your faith in a liar′s hands Wanting to believe his words But never knowing where he stands...
Had my heart on a silver chain With the words engraved "I loved you"... Like a swan that was lost at sea I lost all of me To you... Now I see the writing on the wall...
There′s too many misconceptions In this game of consequence When you′re finding that you hero Is just who you′re up against...
Had my heart on a silver chain With the words engraved "I loved you"... Like a swan that was lost at sea I lost all of me To you... Now I see the writing on the wall...
Solitaire with a song in her heart But what a sad song to sing Turned her back on all that she knew In the hopes of a golden ring... And the rains come down And the stars fell from the sky Oh, how dark the night... It always seems those Castles and Dreams Fade with the morning light... Such a sad story That time loves to tell Copper coins shine for the sun From the floor of the wishing well So the jewel of jeopardy Shines with each dangerous step So unsure of what we′ve become What we have and what we have left...
The valley green was so serene In the middle ran a stream so blue A maiden fair In despair Once had met her true love there And she told him She would say
Promise me When you see A white rose you′ll think of me I love you so never let go I will be your ghost of a rose
Her eyes believed In mysteries She would lay amongst the leaves of amber Her spirit wild Heart of a child Yet gentle still, quiet and mild And he loved her When she would say
Promise me When you see A white rose you′ll think of me I love you so never let go I will be your ghost of a rose... I will be your ghost of a rose...
When all was done She turned to run And danced into the setting sun As he watched her And ever more He thought he saw A glimpse of her upon the moors forever He′d hear her say
Promise me When you see A white rose you′ll think of me I love you so never let go I will be your ghost of a rose...
Promise me When you see A white rose you′ll think of me I love you so never let go I will be your ghost of a rose...
Tried to take it all away, Learn her freedom... just inside a day, And find her soul to find there fears are laid... Tried to make her love their own, They took her love... they left her there, They gave her nothing back that she would want to own...Gold and silver rings and stones, Dances slowly off the moon, No one else could know, she stands alone... Sleeping dreams will reach for her, She can not say the words they need, She knows she′s alone and she is free...Ocean Gypsy of the moon, The sun has made a thousand nights for you to hold... Ocean Gypsy where are you? The shadows followed by the stars have turned to gold... Turned to gold...Then she met a hollow soul, Filled him with her light and was consoled, She was the moon and he the sun was gold... Eyes were blinded with his light... The sun he gave reflected back the night The moon was waning, almost out of sight...Softly Ocean Gypsy calls... Silence holds the stars a while, They smile sadly for her where she falls... Just the time before the dawn, The sea is hushed the ocean calls her, Day has taken her and now she′s gone...No one noticed when she died, Ocean Gypsy shackled to the tide, The ebbing waves, the turning spreading white... Something gone within her eyes, Her fingers, lifeless, stroked the sand, Her battered soul was lost, She was abandoned...Silken threads like wings still shine, Wind swept pleasures still make patterns in her lovely hair... so dark and fine... Stands on high beneath the seas, cries no more, her tears have dried... Ocean weep for her, the ocean sighs...
I′ve been many places I′ve traveled ′round the world Always on the search for something new But what does it matter When all the roads I′ve crossed Always seem to reback to your
Old familiar faces Everyone you meet Following the ways of the land Cobblestones and lanterns Lining every street Calling me to come home again
Dancing in the moonlight Singing in the rain Oh, it′s good to be back home again Laughing in the sunlight Running down the lane Oh, it′s good to be back home again
When you play with fire Sometimes you get burned It happens when you take a chance or two But time is never wasted When you′ve lived and learned And in time, it all comes back to your
And when I got weary I′d sit a while and rest Memories invading my mind All the things I′d treasured The ones I′d loved the best Were the things that I′d left behind
In the shadow of the moon, She danced in the starlight Whispering a haunting tune To the night...
Velvet skirts spun ′round and ′round Fire in her stare In the woods without a sound No one cared... Through the darkened fields entranced, Music made her poor heart dance, Thinking of a lost romance... Long ago...
Feeling lonely, feeling sad, She cried in the moonlight. Driven by a world gone mad She took flight...
"Feel no sorrow, feel no pain, Feel no hurt, there′s nothing gained... Only love will then remain, She would say.
Shadow of the Moon, Shadow of the Moon... Shadow of the Moon, Shadow of the Moon...
Through the darkened fields entranced, Music made her poor heart dance, Thinking of a lost romance... Long ago...
Somewhere just beyond the mist Spirits were seen flying As the lightning led her way Through the dark...
In the shadow of the moon, She danced in the starlight Whispering a haunting tune To the night...
Shadow of the Moon, Shadow of the Moon... Shadow of the Moon, Shadow of the Moon... Shadow of the Moon, Shadow of the Moon... Shadow of the Moon, Shadow of the Moon... Shadow of the Moon, Shadow of the Moon... Shadow of the Moon, Shadow of the Moon...
