1.Try Again
She started coming down
She's high up in airplane descending on our town
And I, I let my vision blur
The lights reminded me of her and how I let her down
But I'm getting older and I know that nothing's changed
I've got to let her go
And the truth is I'm better off alone
No sense in dragging someone else along
And I know she knows
She said
You'll lie wide awake at night
Thinking about the battle between you and
I know it's not about who wins
Sometimes it's better to give in
You've got to learn to try again
I'm taking to the road
The desert looks so desolate as I'm reaching for the phone
And this static reappears
This signal is keeping me from her and what she needs to hear
Oh but time's passing slowly
I'm so lonely without her
She's absent from my world
And the truth is I'm better off alone
No sense in dragging someone else along
And I know she knows
She said
You'll lie wide awake at night
Thinking about the battle between you and
I know it's not about who wins
Sometimes it's better to give in
You've got to learn to try again
Come come on, oh
Come come on, oh
You'll lie wide awake at night
Just thinking about the battle between you and
I know it's not about who wins
Sometimes it's better to give in
I lie wide awake at night
Thinking about the battle between you and
I know it's not about who wins
Sometimes it's better to give in
You've got to learn to try again
Sometimes it's better to give in
(I lie wide awake at night, sometimes it's better to give in)
You've got to learn to try again
2.Other Options
Maybe you should turn around and walk away
Cause you're not really listening
To anything that I've been trying to say
Stop ignoring me
Please baby baby, please just go
Cause I can't be held responsible
Leave baby baby, leave cause I know
That it's impossible
Outside lying down, it's wearing me out, the grey clouds
Crushing the grass, tasting the past, in your mouth
Let me forget, your head on my chest
We crossed the line confused
Why would you say that all of our hope is gone？
Are you trying to hurt me？
Why would you say that we're barely holding on？
Just say that you need me
And why would you say that if we're meant to be
We'd be together eventually？
Maybe it's time we go our seperate ways
And explore other options
Well, well, well, well...
You can dream baby baby, dream baby but you know
That this can't be casual
Please baby baby, please just go
If the feeling's mutual
Look at me now, walking around, at sundown
Lying on the grass, regretting the past, out loud
Let me forget, your head on my chest
We crossed the line confused
Why would you say that all of our hope is gone？
Are you trying to hurt me？
Why would you say that we're barely holding on？
Just say that you need me
And why would you say that if we're meant to be
We'd be together eventually？
Maybe it's time we go our seperate ways
And explore other options
Please baby baby, please just go
Please baby baby, please just go
Please baby baby, please
Please baby baby, please...
Why would you say that all of our hope is gone？
Are you trying to hurt me？
Why would you say that we're barely holding on？
Just say that you need me
And why would you say that if we're meant to be
We'd be together eventually？
Maybe it's time we go our seperate ways
And explore other options
Maybe it's time we go our seperate ways
And explore other options
Well, well, well, well...
And I said
Please baby baby, please just go
Please baby baby, please just go
3.Undertaker
I'm not one to stake my claim
I'm more like the undertaker babe
Live in the city that never sleeps
Not making lots of money but enjoying the finer things
Well I've been doing it since I was young
Studying the strategy so I could win
Anytime I needed money I had things to pawn
And I'd take my money down to the Palms
And with a little luck we could get messed up
And baby you get off later meet me at the elavator
Up to the top floor, maybe the playboy
We can go anywhere you want, it's your choice
Cause baby knows
I'm not one to stake my claim (no no)
I'm more like the undertaker babe
Live in the city that never sleeps
Not making lots of money but enjoying the finer things (well)
I'm not one to stake my claim (no no)
I'm more like the undertaker babe (the undertaker baby)
Living in the city that never sleeps
Not making lots of money but enjoying the finer things (and
gettin gone)
I know you know what I'm doing to your body, the torture
You lose control, and I can feel your heart exploding
On the dance floor, feeling the heat more
I'm looking for the back door out to the patio, we'll take it
slow
Till I get you to a place more remote
You stop to give in, I went inside and ？？？
I'm not one to stake my claim (god damn)
I'm more like the undertaker babe
Living in the city that never sleeps
Not making lots of money but enjoying the finer things (well)
I'm not one to stake my claim (no no)
I'm more like the undertaker babe (the undertaker baby)
Living in the city that never sleeps
Not making lots of money but enjoying the finer things (and
gettin gone)
If you wanna escape the old nine to five
Then just stop on by to the city of lights
It'll make you feel alive and just like T.I.
I'll make sure that you can have whatever you like
Everybody's always asking me
'Hey, what's it like to grow up in Sin City？'
You can hit the strip or the tables dancing
But I'll be at the club as the main attraction
I'm not one to stake my claim (god damn)
I'm more like the undertaker babe
Living in the city that never sleeps
Not making lots of money but enjoying the finer things (well)
I'm not one to stake my claim (no no)
I'm more like the undertaker babe (the undertaker baby)
Living in the city that never sleeps
Not making lots of money but enjoying the finer things (and
gettin gone)
4.It's Only Natural
You what time it is？
Three, two, one
And I wish you would
Come over here
And show me something good
You got me thinking about
Thinking about how you look
Oh, hot damn
You must have wrote the book
Oh, that girl's so fine
She must have wrote the book
And every second is electric
Like a thousand volts
Not to mention
My intention's only natural
And your affection is the question
I've yet close
And I'm close
You keep giving me looks
When you come my way
The way you're shaking me up
It's like an earthquake
You keep giving me looks
That I can't escape
You make my pulse race
With the AOA
And you know I could
Oh, come over there
And give you something good
I bet you're thinking about
Thinking about how you're hooked
You know I wrote the book
Oh, with a touch like mine
I must have wrote the book
And every second is electric
Like a thousand volts
Not to mention
My intention's only natural
And your affection is the question
I've yet close
And I'm close
You keep giving me looks
When you come my way
The way you're shaking me up
It's like an earthquake
You keep giving me looks
That I can't escape
You make my pulse race
With the AOA
And every second I'm infected
And without a cure
And I'm positive you're someone
Who's worth fighting for
You just got that something more
Plus, I'm really sure
You keep giving me looks
When you come my way
The way you're shaking me up
It's like an earthquake
You keep giving me looks
That I can't escape
You make my pulse race
With the AOA
You keep giving me looks
When you come my way
The way you're shaking me up
It's like an earthquake
You keep giving me looks
That I can't escape
You make my pulse race
With the AOA
Oh, you must have wrote the book
5.Story Of A Man Obsessed
Lipstick note on my bathroom mirror
Tells me I should've known I could still here her
On the street below
She must've had somewhere to go
I grab my coat, walk in any direction
Doesn't answer her phone, grind my teeth in the tension
Street lights come on
I feel like there's something wrong
Tell me tell me I can relax
I feel so isolated until you come back
And I'll write the story of a man obsessed
Oh, I can't go on this way
And I wonder if you're the hero or the renegade
Oh, we'll see how this plays
I can't tell if she's dodging my questions
This run around sends me a mixed message
And I just don't know
Am I being irrational？
Twisted how in my thoughts are intentions
Bring her to a room with all my affection
But there's no one home
These are thoughts I have alone
Tell me tell me I can relax
I feel so isolated until you come back
And I'll write the story of a man obsessed
Oh, I can't go on this way
And I wonder if you're the hero or the renegade
Oh, we'll see how this plays
Am I, reading you wrong？
Cause you, are taking too long
To prove, where you had gone
I lose
Lipstick note on my bathroom mirror
Tells me I should've known I could still here her
On the street below
She must've had somewhere to go
And I'll write the story of a man obsessed
Oh, I can't go on this way
And I wonder if you're the hero or the renegade
Oh, we'll see how this plays
And we'll see how this plays
6.The (Runaway) Artist
Standing side of the street
I see her walking away
Her car and bags are packed
Heading straight for L.A.
More of a reason to go
Less of a reason to stay
With every mile she goes
A memory fades away
Not really hip in her school
Unsatisfied with her crowd
Only looking for someplace
Where she can be found
The poetry that she writes
A different kind of release
If they can't hear her scream
Maybe they'll hear her sing
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
And I know that she will be fine if she tries
The days turned into months
The months they turned into years
On a road to fame
Shedding too many tears
A few letters to home
It just wasn't the same
They even made her change her name
Well on the way to work
Turned on the radio
And I heard a familiar voice that I know
She had gotten her dream
And became a star
And her voice rang out from in my car
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
And I know that she will be fine if she tries
And she sang
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
And I know that she will be fine if she tries
But she's trying to hard to run away
From everything she left behind
And if she's gonna do this on her own then she leaves tonight
And they call her a runaway
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
And I know that she will be fine if she tries
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
And I know that she will be fine if she tries
And she said
'You're not gonna take away my dream (la, la, la, la)
Cause I'm running away and soon you'll see (la, la, la, and I
know)
That things will be fine if I try' (that she will be fine if she
tries)
And she said
'You're just wasting your breath on me (la, la, la, la)
Cause I made up my mind and soon you'll see (la, la, la, and I
know)
That things will be fine if I try' (that she will be fine if she
tries)
And they called her a runaway
7.Play With Fire
The thrill of the chase when you don't want to leave with me
But then at the end of the night you're in the parking lot
You ask for a ride, get inside, slide your hand up on my thigh
It's what you do, all the time
You flash that charming arrogance that I can't resist
The way you fake your innocence
I see a devil in your left eye
And an angel in your right
I don't know what to do
I can't make up my mind
You got a bad reputation
But I keep coming back
In a sticky situation
And I'm caught in your trap
Whoa, I keep on telling myself you're a pathological liar
But I love to play with fire
How you smile when you say that you hate the excitement of
The dangerous roads that we take
Don't you know I know you lied when you tried to confide
Took my hand led me outside, once again you need a ride
You flash that charming arrogance that I can't resist
The way you fake your innocence
I see a devil in your left eye
And an angel in your right
I don't know what to do
I can't make up my mind
You got a bad reputation
But I keep coming back
In a sticky situation
And I'm caught in your trap
Whoa, I keep on telling myself you're a pathological liar
But I love to play with fire
I like the way you tease me
The good, the bad, the sexy thing you are
I like the way you need me
I soon forget all your hypocracy
You flash that charming arrogance that I can't resist (I can't
resist)
The way you fake your innocence (oh)
I see a devil in your left eye
And an angel in your right (hey)
I don't know what to do
I can't make up my mind
You got a bad reputation
But I keep coming back
In a sticky situation
And I'm caught in your trap
Whoa, I keep on telling myself you're a pathological liar
But I love to play with fire
I just can't help myself
I keep coming back
In a sticky situation
And I'm caught in your trap
Oh, I keep on telling myself you're a pathological liar
But I love to play with fire
8.Burn And Turn
Sometimes we feel like we've lost our identities
Another stranger keeps looking at us suspiciously
Our body stricken with bruises and our arms are weak
From all the problems, keeping solutions out of reach
We crumble nervously, in need of surgery
A new identity, desperately seeking change
And now this fantasy, becomes reality
Another gallery of people they think are strange
And we try and we try to deny it
To keep from the burn and turn
And we need some inspiration
To keep from going crazy
Sometimes we feel like we're in prison with no release
Locked in a taxi on ？？？ and 103
Our beds are made at home where we won't get any sleep
We feel like zombies feeding our excessive need
Sometimes they're chemical
Mostly they're sexual
But never logical, these patterns are hard to change
And all this flattery
Distorts our sanity
We act neurotically, old habits are hard to break
And we try and we try to deny it
To keep from the burn and turn
And we need some inspiration
To keep from going crazy
And we're lost in translation
Without a place to be
And we try and we try to deny it
To keep from the burn and turn
(oh yeah, to keep from the burn and turn)
We're lost in translation
Without a place to be
And we try and we try to deny it
To keep from the burn and turn
And we need some inspiration
To keep from going crazy
And we're lost in translation
Without a place to be
And we try and we try to deny it
To keep from the burn and turn
To keep from the burn and...
9.The Black Dress
作詞：Jason Centeno, Mike Green, Doug Mccarthy, Robert Ragan, Seth
Trotter, Simon Wilcox
You don't know what you're doing
You look like a student with a pencil in your ponytail
Excuse me for staring
At the light iradescent color of your fingernails
Well, I think the situation's wrong
But you totally turn me on
It's unusually hard for me
To just let you be
Lady in the black dress
You shouldn't sit so close to me
'Cause I could take advantage
Of a soul so vulnerable, soft and sweet
We could dive right in, into the deep
But when we come up you might feel empty
And the lady in the black dress
You'll never sit so close to me
I don't know what I'm doing, this lust is confusing
How do I explain myself？
Such a beautiful sadness behind her own lashes
Those eyes are crying out for help
And I think the situation's wrong
But you totally turn me on
It's unusually hard for me
To just let you be
Lady in the black dress
You shouldn't sit so close to me
'Cause I could take advantage
Of a soul so vulnerable, soft and sweet
We could dive right in, into the deep
But when we come up you might feel empty
And the lady in the black dress
You'll never sit so close to me again
This morning's laid to rest
The casket has been sealed and blessed, the day is gone
His widow noticed me looking at you
She said don't you let love leave and get away
So let's seize the day
Lady in the black dress
You shouldn't sit so close to me
'Cause I could take advantage
Of a soul so vulnerable, soft and sweet
We could dive right in, into the deep
But when we come up you might feel empty
And the lady in the black dress
You'll never sit so close to me again
Lady in the black dress
You shouldn't sit so close to me
'Cause I could take advantage
Of a soul so soft and sweet
10.Beautiful Coffins
作詞：Jason Centeno, Mike Green, Douglas Mc Carthy, Robert Ragan,
Seth Trotter, Simon Wilcox
On the walls of my apartment
Hang the pictures of all our problems
And the nails I see hammered through me
Are my therapy
And how did everything go so wrong？
And I'm stuck here left just holding on
To the misery you left for me
But now I see
You should go if you wanna leave
I know when you're six feet deep
You'll be saying you're sorry
So I'll make it easy
I'll pick up the most beautiful coffin for you
To send you on your way
And I'll douse it with gasoline
To make sure when you leave this place
That you leave it up in flames
When the smoke fills your lungs
And your body starts to decay, oh
And you blend into the earth
I hope it hurts, I hope it hurts you
Like you hurt me first
You had everything you needed
But you walked around so jaded
With a heart as hard as pavement breathes
Through cracks unseen
But you should go if you wanna leave
I know when you're six feet deep
You'll be saying you're sorry
So I'll make it easy
I'll pick up the most beautiful coffin for you
To send you on your way
And I'll douse it with gasoline
To make sure when you leave this place
That you leave it up in flames
When the smoke fills your lungs
And your body starts to decay, oh
And you blend into the earth
I hope it hurts, I hope it hurts you
Like you hurt me first
Ooh, ooh
Maybe eventually when you're finally deceased
Death will feel natural
Then you'll see all your pipe lit dreams
Won't become reality 'cause they're out of your league
I'll pick out the most beautiful coffin for you
To send you on your way
And I'll douse it with gasoline
To make sure when you leave this place
That you leave it up in flames
And when the smoke fills your lungs
And your body starts to decay, oh
And you blend into the earth
I hope it hurts, I hope it hurts you
Like you hurt me first, oh, you hurt me first
You hurt me first, oh no
11.Scandalous
作詞：Jason Centeno, Mike Green, Doug Mc Carthy, Robert Ragan, Seth
Trotter, Simon Wilcox
It was a lesson in indiscretion
And it's weighing on my mind
I'm pretty sure this happens all the time
And my desperation became my depression
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
Now that I know this happens all the time
I should've seen it
In the way that you act, you're scandalous
Behind my back, so scandalous
You're running around all over town
I can't handle it
You're a dime I can't afford to lose
'Cause I'm better off without you
Another victim, you're so vindictive
One more cadaver lying cold
Now that I'm sure this happens all the time
I should've seen it
In the way that you act, you're scandalous
Behind my back, so scandalous
You're running around all over town
I can't handle it
Licking your lips, you're scandalous
Ignorant bliss, so scandalous
You're making a scene to come easy clean
I can't handle it
You're a dime I can't afford to lose
Oh, 'cause I'm better off without you
You're just a night light hitting my blindside
Shining on more than you deserve
Now that I know this won't happen anymore, oh no
The way that you act, you're scandalous
Behind my back, so scandalous
You're running around all over town
I can't handle it
Licking your lips, you're scandalous
Ignorant bliss, so scandalous
It was a lesson in indiscretion
And it's weighing on my mind
I'm pretty sure this happens all the time
And my desperation became my depression
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
Now that I know this happens all the time
I should've seen it
In the way that you act, you're scandalous
Behind my back, so scandalous
You're running around all over town
I can't handle it
You're a dime I can't afford to lose
'Cause I'm better off without you
Another victim, you're so vindictive
One more cadaver lying cold

Ignorant bliss, so scandalous
You're making a scene to come easy clean

You're making a scene to come easy clean
I can't handle it
You're scandalous, so scandalous
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
You're scandalous, so scandalous
You're running around all over town
I can't handle it
Hello, it's me, I'm coming over
I'll be there in twenty
I'll jump in my car, just stay right where you are
Calm down, just breathe, we will be discovered
You know, I'm gonna leave her
Trust me, it won't be that hard
If we play it right, the money's ours
And if I stay tonight, I'll hit the mark
Then she'll take the bait
It's just so damn easy, it's too damn easy to fake
Hang on a second, don't even start
'Cause I know what to do to steal her heart
Just believe in me
It's just so damn easy, it's too damn easy
When we're on our getaway
From the whole world that is staged
We'll do it together, babe
All be worth it, it'll all be worth our wait
So even if I don't try to hide my love
She might see straight through me, no
We don't need that obstacle
It's something that I can't hide
That I'm getting cold feet
But if I don't pleasure her
Then we won't get what we need
If we play it right, the money's ours
And if I stay tonight, I'll hit the mark
Then she'll take the bait
It's just so damn easy, it's too damn easy to fake
Hang on a second, don't even start
'Cause I know what to do to steal her heart
Just believe in me
It's just so damn easy, it's too damn easy
When we're on our getaway
From the whole world that is staged
When we're on our getaway
From the whole world that is staged
We'll do it together, babe
All be worth it, it'll all be worth a wait
It'll all be worth a wait
It'll all be worth a wait
12.Closer
Closer (x4)
Turn off the lights in this place
And she shines just a star
And I swear I know her face
I just don't know who you are
Turn the music up in here
I still hear her loud and clear
Like she's right there in my ear
Telling me that she wants to own me
To control me
Come closer
(Come closer)
Come closer
And I just can't pull myself away
Under her spell, I can't break
I just can't stop
(I just can't stop)
I just can't stop

And I just can't bring myself away
But I don't want to escape
I just can't stop
(I just can't stop)
I just can't stop
(I just can't stop)
I just can't stop
I can feel her on my skin
I can taste her on my tongue
She's the sweetest taste of sin
The more I get, the more I want
She wants to own me
Come closer
(Closer)
She says, 'Come closer'
And I just can't pull myself away
Under her spell, I can't break
I just can't stop
(I just can't stop)
I just can't stop
(I just can't stop)
And I just can't bring myself away
But I don't want to escape
I just can't stop

(Just can't stop, no)
I just can't stop, no
No, no, no, no
And I just can't pull myself away
Under her spell, I can't break
I just can't stop

And I just can't bring myself away
(Bring myself)
