new found glory-sticks and stones
understatement-Im sick of smiling
And so is my jaw
Cant you see my front is crumbling down
Im sick of being someone Im not
Please get me out of this slump
Im sick of clapping
When I know I can do it better for myself
Im sick of waiting
Sick of all these words that will never matter
I wire these nerves together
Hoping for a chance to think on time
And Im tracing over your letter
To see if your intentions are as good as mine
But youre getting worse
I swear it
Its hard to prove youre an understatement
Youre getting worse and I know
That youll be calling me again
Im done with everything
That had to do with you
Dont worry your pictures are already burned
Im done with new friends
Dont sell yourself short
Youll lose it in the end
I cant help how I feel
my friends over you-Im drunk off your kiss
For another night in a row
This is becoming to routine for me
But I didnt mean to lead you on
And its all right to pretend that we still talk
Its just for show isnt it
Its my fault that it fell apart
Just maybe you need this and I didnt mean
to lead you on
You were everything I wanted
But I just cant finish what I started
Theres no room left here on my back
It was damaged long ago
Though you swear that you are true
Id still pick my friends over you
Please tell me everything
That you think that I should know
About all the plans you made
When I was nowhere to be found
And Its all right to forget that we still talk
Its just for fun isnt it
Its my fault that it fell apart
sonny- Im sorry
I heard about the bad news today
A crowd of people around you
Telling you its okay
And everything happens for a reason
When you lose a part of your self
To somebody you know
It takes a lot to let go
Every breath that you remember
Pictures fade away but memory is forever
An empty chair at all the tables
And Ill be seeing you when all my days boil down
But its better where youre going anyway
Im sorry
I heard about the bad news today
A crowd of people around you
Telling you its okay
And everything happens for a reason
When you lose a part of your self
To somebody you know
It takes a lot to let go
Every breath that you remember
Pictures fade away but memory is forever
An empty chair at all the tables
And Ill be seeing you when all my days boil down
But its better where youre going anyway
something i call personality-Before you jump down my throat
Id like to present you with
Something I call personality
Word travels fast when youre on the road
Id like to think what I have is real
Sort this out on your own time
Before you jump to conclusions
About all the friends I have
Just remember they were born that way
Word travels fast when her names involved
Id like to think what I have is real
No matter how happy you are youll
always want more
No matter how stupid I get youll
always want more
head on collision- Ive been waiting for a good day
Ive been holding back long enough
Ive been hurting to tell you some thing
Its not the falling of the temperature
Thats making all our bones run cold
Its the breeze you make
The presence felt when youre around me
It feels like Im at an all time low
Slightly bruised and broken
From our head on collision
Ive never seen this side of you
Another tragic case of feeling
Bruised and broken
From our head on collision
Ive never seen this side of you
Another tragic case and Im still
Waiting for a good day
I think Ive held this long enough
I think its safe to tell you some things
Its not just what you say to people
And its not the way you look at me
Its the way you present yourself for all of your worst critics to see
You were gone
All this time and you just didnt know it yet
Still waiting for a good day
its been a summer- Im cracked from my head down to my spine
Ready to selfdestruct at any time
And Im trying to convince myself
That the way I feel is all I have
It could take a lifetime
To realize that youre alright
But she said
Id know when you would come back
Its been a summer
Its burning up in here
Even though the bed is cold on your side
Id rather die
Then spend this night here without you
I would try to fix these flaws of mine
If I could just see you for one more time
And Im trying to convince myself
That the way I feel is all I have
I dont believe in sure things
Theres pain in what the truth brings
Id be the first one to know
If its smart for me to just let it go
Ill be the laughing stock of all time
Person most likely to find
Deciding if its fate that made you avoid me
to this day
forget my name- Can you tell that Im losing myself
I think Im trying too hard to
Let it show
To let you know
Dont trace your footsteps back to me
Ive been gone for a long time
Waiting on the side lines
Hoping for a chance to play
Well I thought I would never leave anything behind
I also never thought id say
Tell all my friends Im dead
Im leaving you
This time Its for good
Tell all my friends that Im dead
It wont be long before you forget my name
Can you tell that I dont know myself
I need someone to remind me
To let it go
Please let me know
Dont trace your footsteps back to me
And If I had the chance to do it all again
I wouldnt expect anything less
never give up- Living with me
I dont think it would be so bad
This is the first time this year that Im not going to make you mad
Im tired of my conscious always telling me
to stop sleeping in
But I cant waste a second on dreams that
will never begin
Everyone has a head upon their shoulders
Were losing our pride as we all get older
Everyone has to pick on their saviors
You might not get it right
Or you might realize that its too late
Dont back down
Im over the past cant you see
Dont back down
I dont really care about before
You met me
Is it cool if I see you tonight
Theres a thousand questions I want to ask you
If you think that its all right
So dont take anything for granted
Stand outside in the rain
An excuse you know I planned it
Every ending ends up the same
the great houdini- All dressed up and nowhere to go
I think Im taking this trip alone
Thirty seconds till I pass
The questions you will never ask
Your regrets will haunt you
You know I never had to
Im saving myself from you
Did you notice anything
The changes made
And now its safe to say
You will never change your ways
I went to your house
But you werent home
Im sure you conveniently shut off your phone
I dont think that Ill ever be
The person that you want of me
When all that I can think about
Its you I have to figure out
Did you notice anything
The changes made
Now its safe to say
You will never change your ways
You would give up anything
To prove your point
Theres nothing left to say
You will never change your ways
All dressed and nowhere to go
I think Im taking this trip alone
singled out- I figured all the years we shared were proof enough
To extend my hand and help you
I know that getting started can be rough
Enthused smile you seemed grateful
I felt real good about myself
Thats until the day you showed me
You dont need anybody else
Whyd you have to go
And make me say these things about you
Whyd you have to turn around after all that weve been through
I figured all the memories were proof enough
To maybe open your eyes
From the people you think hold your trust
Do you ever smile and find it shameful
Cause you dont know who you are
I am glad you never told me
You dont need anybody else
What will you do
When theres no one to fall back on
I wont be there
Ive learned my lesson
What will you do when theres no friends
to fall back on
Because theyve all been stepped on
belated- Ive never felt so bad in my entire life
But this time I did it to myself
What do you expect from me
I did it
So what do you expect from me
Let go of my hand
Is it time to go
Im not ready to turn my back on you yet
Im not going to let you down
Let you down
September came so quickly
I wasnt prepared
I didnt mean to miss your birthday
What do you expect from me
I did it
So what do you expect from me
Why dont you Let go of my hand
Is it time to go
Im not ready to turn my back on you yet
Im not going to let you down
Bridges will fall from under us
But we are strong
Well get through this
The earth will open up
And try to pull us in
But well get through this
Get through this
the story so far- I cant remember the time or place
Or what you were wearing
Its unclear about how we met
All I know is it was the best conversation
that Ive ever had
Until this day Ive never found someone
With eyes as wide as yours
Ive been searching up and down this coast
Overlooking what I need the most
Did you notice I was afraid
I thought Id run out of things to say
Two more hours until today burns this away
And it starts all over again
The sky will never look the same again
Til you show me how it could be
And everything else is irrelevant
To the story so far
A coincidence that you looked like her from afar
Is it true that you like to sleep alone
Or is it what you just tell everyone
And when the world turns over
Ill keep my ears to the wall
And when the world turns over
Ill keep my feet straight on the ground
The sky will never look the same again
Til you showed me how it could be
