1.Bullet Proof

Do you listen to yourself
Never live for someone else
Do you like the way you feel
Nothing hurts when no one's real
She wants to shake this scene
Yeah she wants to shake with me
She's not looking for the holes in all the lies

I wanna bullet proof your soul
Would you like to lose control
I won't let you fall until you tell me so

What are we? (Whatchya wanna be)
Everything! (That you wanna be)
All I need (Right in front of me)
I've know before

Would you come my way
Or did you burn out to the end
Would you come my way
Should have listened when you called my name

Yeah she wants to tear you down
And she leaves without a sound
It's like fallin' backwards
Into no one's arms

You're a bullet through my soul
And I'll never let you know
I won't let you fall until you let it go

What are we? (Whatchya wanna be)
Everything! (That you wanna be)
All I need (Right in front of me)
I've know before

Would you come my way
Or did you burn out to the end
Would you come my way
Should have listened when you called my name

Would you come my way
Or did you burn out to the end
Would you come my way
Should have listened when you called my name
Should have listened when you called my name
Should have listened when you called my name


2.All Eyes On Me

Daylight burns your sleepy eyes
It's hard to see you dreaming
You hide inside yourself
I wondered what you're thinkin'
And everything you're chasing
It seems to leave you empty
And it won't take long to burn
All eyes on me
Through the nothing that you've learned
All eyes on me
And the things you choose to be
All eyes on me

Just look away
It's so hard to be someone
Strung out from today
And all that you knew slips away

You drown in deeper oceans
Inventing new religions
They smile and stab my back and
I lie and have to laugh

And it won't take long to burn
All eyes on me
Through the nothing that you've learned
All eyes on me
And the things you choose to be
All eyes on me

Just look away
It's so hard to be someone
Strung out from today
And all that you knew slips away

And you hid in your room
And the light burns away
And you move from the truth
It's all so far from you


3.Amigone

Everytime you point your finger
Three more point right back at you
I'm not sayin' that it's something wrong with life
'Cause that's a sad excuse

An age old game of rat and mouse
Chasin' us from house to house
I'm not sayin' that there's something wrong with you
It's wrong with me as well

Are you alive
Amigone (...Miracles gone wrong)
Is it too late to call and tell you to be strong
Are you alive
Amigone (...Miracles gone wrong)
Was the poison in our love there all along
Amigone

Heavenly intoxication
Love's been marred by medication
Ain't it funny how a life can take a turn
When the end is near

Are you alive
Amigone (...Miracles gone wrong)
Is it too late to call and tell you to be strong
Are you alive
Amigone (...Miracles gone wrong)
Is it too late to face the truth that it was wrong
Amigone

I'm not sayin' that it's something
I'm not gonna play along
I'm not wishin' for a miracle
That miracle's gone wrong
And you're too strong

Amigone (...Miracles gone wrong)
Is it too late to call and tell you to be strong
Are you alive
Amigone (...It's there all along)
Was the poison in our love there all along
Are you alive
Amigone (...Miracles gone wrong)
Is it too late to call and tell you to be strong
Are you alive
Amigone (...It's there all along)
Was the poison in our love there all along


4.Acoustic #3

They painted up your secrets
With the lies they told to you
And the least they ever gave you
Was the most you ever knew

And I wonder where these dreams go
When the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screaming
No one's listening anyway

Your voice is small and fading
And you hide in here unknown
And your mother loves your father
'Cause she's got nowhere to go

And she wonders where these dreams go
'Cause the world got in her way
What's the point in ever trying
Nothing's changing anyway

They press their lips against you
And you love the lies they say
And I tried so hard to reach you
But you're falling anyway

And you know I see right through you
'Cause the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screamin'
You're not listening anyway


5.Naked

Yeah I'm fadin'
And I call out
No one hears me
Never been, never felt, never thought I'd say a word

Weighed down
Say it now

You're naked inside your fear
Can't take back all those years
Shots in the dark from empty guns
Never heard by anyone
Never heard by anyone

Yeah I'm hiding
in the fallout
Now I'm wasted
They don't need me, don't want me, don't hear a word I say

Weighed down
Say it now

Inside your head
No one's there
And I don't think I'll ever be
And I don't care


6.Ain't That Unusual

Can you talk to me
Honestly?
Cuz I never heard a word you said now
And I ain't just being mean

Cuz all we are is what we're told
and most of that's been lies
It's like a made for TV movie
and I just blew my lines

Someday you never made it and maybe you never will
Hey, you never made it, ain't that unusual

Now I feel unknown
and it's safe that way
Are you too bored to care or too dumb to be scared
What's that supposed to mean

I'm burnt out on some empty reasons
and other wastes of time
Something that I wish I'd said
but I don't think it rhymed

See I'd love to be you
At least I could see you
Sorry I put them words in your mouth
but you wouldn't talk to me

Everything I want I haven't got
Sick of everything I'm not
Put my heavy coat on for a while
It's freezing in the corner of my mind


7.Burnin' Up

You said you're burnin' up inside, and no one seems to tell.
Your living from a personalized manual from hell.
Life seems pretty easy when it's from my easy chair.
And you're burnin' up inside and no one's cares.

You said you had enough this time, this town don't treat you
well.
You always find coincidence, well I do parallel.

Come and take my hand tonight, I'll show you where to start.
'Cuz every word that left your lips, like a needle through my
heart.


8.Flat Top

Flat top intervention
Bringing home the new invention
See it there in pieces on the ground
A television war between the cynics and the saints
Flip the dial and that's whose side you're on
Sleeping on the White House lawn ain't never changed a thing
Look at all the washed out hippie dreams

And it's fallin' all around us
Is this some kinda joke they're trying to pull on us
Fallin' all around us
I turned my head off for a while

The tabloid generation's lost
Choking on it's fear
Used to be that's all we had to fear
Conscience keeps us quiet while the crooked loves to speak
His knowledge wrapped in blankets on the street.
A visionary coward says that anger can be power
As long as there's a victim on TV

And my dirty dreams all come alive on my TV screen
And assassination plots
Show me what I haven't got
Show me what I love, who I'm supposed to be
Show me everything I need
Show it all to me
Show it all to me


9.Eyes Wide Open

I'm a fortunate son, of a fortunate son,
Living large on the wrong side of town.
Too many friends and the fun never ends,
Drinkin' and hangin' around.

I wanna' own the world, I wanna' swallow it whole.
At least I could kick it all down.
I wanna' kick it all down.

Eyes wide open, I can't see.
Eyes wide open, what you mean.
Eyes wide open, I can't seem to be.

I don't take the bus, and I never walked too far,
The furthest I got was my own backyard.
A fist full of cash that somebody else earned,
They sent me some more when it all got burned.

I wanna' take control, I wanna' make it all mine.
At least I could kick it all down.
I wanna' kick it all down.

I'll get what I want when I make up my mind,
I'm turnin' you inside out.
I wanna' own the world, I wanna' swallow it whole.
I think I'll just kick it all down.
I wanna' kick it all down.


10.Fallin' Down

Do you know, where you want to go?
I ain't got time for you now.
Do you think, that I'll ever be?
Cuz all I ever wanted, so far gone.
And if I had my chance, I'd go along.

You're making me fall down,
I'm falling down again.
I wish you could fall down,
Can you catch me darling,
I'm Home

Do you see, what you do to me?
You ain't got time for him now.
Do you think, that he'll ever be?
Cuz all I ever wanted, so far gone.
And if I had my chance, I'd go along.


11.Another Second Time Around

Happy, smilin', cryin' upwards to my past,
I guess those stormy gray skies simply couldn't last.
And now I find myself a-tugging at your dress.
The fun of holding you down, or seeing you frown is never gonna
pass.

Somewhere there's a place a soul can never go,
Gray-like stormy skies I hoped you didn't know.
All our postcards full of things I won't forget.
And now it's coming down, that laughing clown is all I ever get.

Another second time around.
I've been runnin' from ya
another second time around.
Another second, one more second time,
I waited for ya, another second time around.

Couldn't help myself,
I felt like everything was gonna pass.
It was an awkward time,
I hoped it wouldn't, hoped it couldn't last.

And I didn't know exactly what to say,
About the things you saw me do my evil way.
And I know you're lyin', cryin' in your bed.
Well I'm all tired out, so wired out, it's ringing in my head.


12.Cuz You're Gone

You whispered in my mouth,
And I spit you words right back.
How good do you think I'll look,
When the words start to break and crack.

You beat your head upon your wall,
You disconnect yourself from it all.
Cuz you know that you're so beautiful and so untouchable,
And I want to get in so bad, and I don't know how.

Cuz your gone, and you ain't coming back.
Yeah you're gone, and you ain't coming back.

You held your hand so close,
And I just can't push you away.
I wished you could be my girl,
But you're stuck in your own world.

(repeat second)
(repeat third)

(repeat second)
(repeat third)

Yeah you're gone, and I wish you'd come back.


13.We Are The Normal

It's a beautiful day
I heard everybody say
The sun shines down for all of us
Just the same
You know I like the rain
That ain't so obvious
It's a beautiful sight
I guess everybody's right
This day belongs to all of us
Even still I like my winter chilled
That ain't so obvious

We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why
We are the normal
We live and we die
With no reason why

It's a beautiful life
And I got it in my sights
And that ain't for all of us
It's a beautiful sound
When my life comes crashin down
That ain't so obvious
It's a beautiful sin
And I'm doin it again
And that ain't for all of us
It's a beautiful life
And I got it in my sights
Ain't that so obvious


14.Girl Right Next To Me

You changed my face,
I think I like it better now.
It doesn't matter anyhow, cuz that's the way it is.
You said hello,
Well where the hell you been?
I said I feel like I've been off to war,
and I may never be the same again.

I made my bed,
And now I can't sleep at night.
Cause I'm tossin and turnin you know, you know it ain't right.
I'd love to beg,
See, but I'm just too proud.
And I don't even know what to say, so I'm thinking out loud.

And when you dream 17,
I ain't there, so I don't care.
Cuz in all my dreams, I'm 23,
And she's the girl right next to me.
See that girl right next to me.

I lie in my bed,
You're running through my head.
Going over and over and over, the things that you said.
I'm caught in a trap,
I'll run like hell right back to you.
Cuz I'm sober with you and you know it beats drinking alone.


15.Lucky Star

If I could walk a straight mile,
I could write it down in shorthand, I could show you.
If you want me to.
And if I had an hourglass,
I'd save the grains of time I spent with you
That's what I'd do.
But I remember, you always said it could be great.
And I knew It could be.
Well there's a way you look at things,
That no one needs to know but you.
And you shared it with me.
Like every time the leaves would fall,
You promised me that they'd be back again.
And I believed in you.

You always said it could be great.
But I had no time too waste, now it seems that I've come too
far.

As bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star.
Bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star.

Written down in hard-bound books,
The way things used to be, they ain't for me.
I'd swear they're all for you.
We said sugar, gramps said shoot,
Her mom said shit, I don't know what she'll do.
As if it's up to you.

As bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star.
Bright as you are don't get burned by your lucky star.
Your lucky star will burn ya.
Your lucky star will turn you 'round.
They're gonna turn you around


16.On The Lie

He burnt down the house one night,
He had a loaded six-pack gun.
He said that Jesus Christ was just like a cop,
You know, you never know when they'll come.
She said every day above ground,
Was another dream come true.
He said I'd hang and swap clichés all night,
But I'm not in love with you.

And I never got serious,
Til everything went black.
And I ain't so curious,
That I'm ever going back.

On the lie.

He said, man, you want to be Elvis.
I said I ain't dying face down.
He said you've got to die facing up in the world,
cuz there's too many holes around.
He asked what was wrong with me,
He said I looked like a Hollywood girl.
I said that Hollywood can fall into the ocean, man,
Cuz it's the ugliest place in the whole wide world.

On the lie, he was.
On the lie, she was.
It's always a stinkin' lie


17.Just The Way You Are

I'm in love because I know you
And I'm sorry I don't show you
And if I find that you ain't by me
I'm afraid no one will know the things you see

How could you believe in someone sorry sad like me
I know the deal and I thank you anyways
And if you leave you know I'm crawlin' at your feet
You never get weak when I'm leaning hard on you

And I guess that's just the way you are
And I guess that's just the way you are
And I guess that's just the way you are
And I guess that's just the way you are

And all the things that you don't show me
Like when you pretend that you don't know me
I wasted a dime and I can't call you
I'll spend a lifetime if I fall for you

How could you believe in someone sorry sad like me
I know the deal and I thank you anyways
And if you leave you know I'm crawlin' at your feet
You never get weak when I'm leaning hard on you

And I guess that's just the way you are
And I guess that's just the way you are
And I guess that's just the way you are
And I guess that's just the way you are

Hold me up
Hold me up
Hold me up
Hold me up


18.Two Days In February

Dedicated to chief dog
Take 22, copy 1
And the guy across the street

I hung your picture on the wall#and that's all it is
I break my fingers to make a call#and that's all it is
I know you're living way out west and I don't think that I
confessed
Everything I feel

You say you got no faith in things that you can't see
Well I'm sorry I ain't there with you, but you ain't here with
me
And I'm down in all my fears
But I ain't cryin' no tears over you

'cause everything's wrong
Well it's all right
Everything's wrong
Well it's all right

You said that this is crazy, you're a half a world away
Well I'm sitting and I'm thinking but I didn't know what to say
So I said something I can't touch, I always want way too much
Anyway#

'cause everything's wrong
Well it's all right
Everything's wrong
Well it's all right

I hung your picture on the wall, but that's all it is
I break my fingers to make a call and that's all it is
I know you're living way out west
Don't get me wrong I'm not impressed
With you no more


19.Laughing

I wake up, I'm staring at the clock
My belly hurts and my head is like a rock
I get up to see what I can see
Furthest I got was my black and white tv
Eyewitness news brought to you at noon
Oh my god, guess I got up too soon

Because oh I feel like laughing
Oh I feel like laughing
Oh I feel like laughing
All because of you
All because of you

I didn't mean to wear this disguise
But I can't stand the look in my eyes
Oh I didn't mean to lie
I was doing what I thought was right
Come on, walk right down the line
You'll be walking till the end of time

Because oh I feel like laughing
Oh I feel like laughing
Oh I feel like laughing
All because of you
All because of you

Oh I feel like laughing
Oh I feel like laughing
Oh I feel like laughing
All because of you
All because of you


20.There You Are

Give me a reason now that I can understand
Pick up the pieces now and put them in my hand

I've been up and down for you
My suffering extreme
I fell on my face for you
Now i know what it means

And I self destruct
I close my eyes and then

There you are
There you are
You are
There you are

Yeah you can run out west, forget you know my name
You say you got your shit together, but you ain't got no faith

Method in madness
Now there's madness in my soul
I'd run from the darkness now
I've got no place to go

And I self destruct
I close my eyes and then

There you are
There you are
You are
There you are

There you are
There you are
You are
There you are

There you are
There you are


21.Up Yours

Up yours
Stop your whine
Feelin' swell
And I'm doin' fine

Yeah fuck your suicide
It's all bullshit 'cause I tried
And it really don't impress me all that much

Up yours
What you find
Sit right down
I got time

And you say here comes the end
And you haven't got a friend
And I'm standing here just screaming at the wall

Up yours
Stop your whine
Whatta ya got
I got mine

And you shake your stupid head
And you wish that you were dead
And I swear sometimes you're happier than me

And you know it's hard to be
All the things you want me to be
And you go and make it hard on me
But I swear that anything you could be I could be can't you see

Up yours
Got no mind
That's too bad
You got time

Yeah, fuck your silly game
'cause it's driving me insane
And it really doesn't matter much to me


22.I'm Addicted

1, 2, 3, 4!
Look around this dirty town
Drink it up till we fall down
Don't want to live forever this way
But it's gonna have to do for today

Oh, I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be

Before that hurried call
I had my back against the wall
No, don't want to be shown
Go out and learn your own

Oh, I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be

1, 2, 3, 4!

Before that hurried call
I had my back against the wall
No, don't want to be shown
Go out and learn your own

Oh, I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be

I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
I'm addicted - as I want to be
