So alone, you don't know if you can ever win
Your pretty face, stained to hell from all the things you've seen
But you've gotta learn to stand up, you've gotta learn to shout
You know the worst is over now, we're gonna work this out
You've gotta learn to stand up, you've gotta learn to shout
You know the worst is over now, we're gonna work this out
You said I don't wanna be loved, don't wanna be loved
I don't wanna be loved, don't wanna be loved

She said it's cold outside and she hands me my raincoat
She's always worried about things like that
She said it's all gonna end and it might as well be my fault
And she only sleeps when it's raining
And she screams and her voice is strained
And

[Chorus:]

she says it's cold outside and she hands me my raincoat
she's always woried about things like that
she says it's all gonna end and it might as well be my fault
and she only sleeps when its raining
and she screams and her voice is straining

(chorus)
and she says baby

Everywhere someone's getting over
Everybody cries and sometimes
You can still lose even if you really try
Talking 'bout the dream like the dream is over
Talk like that won't get you nowhere
Everybody's trusting in the heart
Like the heart don't lie

No I would not sleep in this bed of lies
So toss me out and turn in
And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning
I am

I don't think that I can take another empty moment
I don't think that I can fake another hollow smile

If I fall along the way
Pick me up and dust me off
If I get too tired to make it
Be my breath so I can walk

If I need some of your love again
Give me more than I can stand
When my smile gets old and faded

You'll say we've got nothing in common,
No common ground to start from,
And we're falling apart,
You'll say the world has come between us,
Our lives have come between us,
Still I know you just don't care.

And I said "What about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"

She got out of town
On a railway New York bound
Took all except my name
Another alien on Broadway

There's some things in this world
That you just can't change
Some things you can't see

I forget when words were only words
She knows the party makes me nervous
In this stage we can't get hurt
Don't try to understand me

We're too cool to be alone
But, not too crazy to get busted

I'll stick around
And see how bad it gets
I'll settle down
And deal with old regrets
You know I
I adore you

I can't let you go

Well I will do without
The spaces in between
If you can tell me now
What it means to be
You have been found out
I have been deceived
By the one that I need
Tell me why you gotta be so cold

"Come Dancing"
(originally by The Kinks)

They put a parking lot on a piece of land
When the supermarket used to stand.
Before that they put up a bowling alley
On the site that used to be the local palais.
That’s where the big bands used to come and play.

Something is wrong with the some of us
That I can't seem to erase
How can I be the only one
Without a smile on my face

Well now, you're laughing out loud
At just the thought of being alive
And I was wondering

I don't want to be the crutch
One step away from down
I don't want to be the crutch
One step away from...

Man I feel like hell so come on over
Be a love machine and I could be your friend
Aint no shame feel strong for one another

Feels like you made a mistake.
You made somebody's heart break.
But now I have to let you go.
I have to let you go.

You left a stain
on every one of my good days.
But I am stronger than you know.

Come inside, the air I breathe
While the band still plays
It's the end, of the coldest week
Come down into the sea

Cause everybody wants to get away sometimes
And everybody needs mistakes

What you want, what you got live your life in a crawl space
I'll help you out but you don't want a chance at a better life
You said you never took a ride and now you wanna play
Well, it's a big, big city let me show you around some town
Oh, some town

[Chorus]

I reach within my isolation, I harbor it, I honor it
You say you'd like to see me closer, of course you would, you have no choice

And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me
And I laugh at the people that I can't be all their lives silly pictures

Chorus:
Hey now now now, hey now hey baby

You think this life would make me bolder
But I'm running scared is all
I hang on everything about you
You think I'd settle down cuz I'm older
But I roll with the changes is all
I'm same old trailer trash in new shoes

She gets sad when there's nothing going on

Someday they'll find your small town world
On a big town avenue
Gonna make you like the way they talk
When they're talking to you
Gonna make you break out of your shell
Cuz they tell you to
Gonna make you like the way they lie
Better than the truth

She grabs her magazines
She packs here things and she goes
She leaves the pictures hanging on the wall, she burns all
Her notes and she knows, she's been here too few years
To feel this old

He smokes his cigarette, he stays outside 'til it's gone
If anybody ever had a heart, he wouldn't be alone

"Help Me Through This"

I wanna stand on the tallest mountain
I wanna scream what I cannot name
But I don't really wanna be myself today
I wanna run on an open highway
I wanna walk in the desert wind
I wanna play like I know that I can win

Waking up at the start of the end of the world,
But it's feeling just like every other morning before,
Now I wonder what my life is going to mean if it's gone,
The cars are moving like a half a mile an hour
And I started staring at the passengers who're waving goodbye
Can you tell me what was ever really special about me all this time?

I believe the world is burning to the ground

Tonight, looking back on all this life
It’s funny how the time goes by
And how sometimes it slides away
Time, sliding through the dead of night
Shaking ‘til you start to cry
Your eyes won’t dry ‘til light of day
And sleep away
Don’t let it go, don’t let it fade

All day, staring at the ceiling
making friends with shadows on my wall
all night, hearing voices telling me
that i should get some sleep
because tomorrow might be good for something
hold on, feeling like im heading for a breakdown
and i don't know why

I think I've already lost you
I think you're already gone
I think I'm finally scared now
You think I'm weak - but I think you're wrong
I think you're already leaving
Feels like your hand is on the door
I thought this place was an empire
But now I'm relaxed - I can't be sure

Kody sat down on the avenue
He tapped his feet, to the humming of the highway
He watched the light shine down on the broken glass and thought
I don't got no reasons, yet
There it is and there it was
It was clear to all of us
We kept this hat of broken dreams
And we pulled them out, when we needed them around

This will all fall down like everything else that was
This too shall pass and all of the words we said
We can't take back

Now every fool in town would've left by now
I can't replace all the wasted days
The memory of your face - can't help thinkin'

It's amazing
How you make your face just like a wall,
How you take your heart and turn it off,
How I turn my head and lose it all

It's unnerving
How just one move puts me by myself
There you go just trustin' someone else

I'm walking behind you
Calling the way you, give away all your secret
You're taking the high road
Picking your battles, just like the day I found you

I just wanna make you go away
But you taste like sugar, yeah you taste like sugar
I just wanna make you go away

It's sitting by the overcoat,
The second shelf, the note she wrote
That I can't bring myself to throw away
And also
Reach she said for no one else but you,
Cuz you won't turn away
When someone else is gone

I feel stupid - but I know it won't last for long
I've been guessing - and I coulda been guessin' wrong
You don't know me now
I kinda thought that you should somehow
Does that whole mad season got ya down?

Well I feel stupid, but it's something that comes and goes
I've been changin' - I think it's funny how no one knows

I don't know why sometimes we seem so apart
Sewn together with a broken heart
I try to see you but it’s getting dark
Words keep flowing out
I wonder what they mean
You’re like a little piece of kerosene
But, girl, you’ve always been a friend to me
And I’ve been too proud sometimes

Feeling my hands start shaking
Hearing your voice I'm overjoyed
I'm sorry but I have no choice
Cause you're only getting bitter
Maybe you have your reasons
Maybe you're scared you'll be let down
Are you crying when there's no one around

When the slow parade went past
And it felt so good
You knew it couldn't last
All too soon the end is gonna come without a warning
Then you ought to just go home

And the way it all went back
And somebody said "come on, it's getting late."

She said I don't know if I've ever been good enough
I'm a little bit rusty, and I think my head is caving in
And I don't know if I've ever been really loved
By the hand that's touched me
Well I feel like something gonna give
And I'm a little bit angry, well

This ain't over, no not here

You're wide awake, your heart beats
Sister Mary in her burning dress with god at her feet
They take and take, but no more
Cause now you're gonna show em what the night is really for
And leave your heart out on the dance floor

Put your hands up, it's all right
Saying "oh ho oh oh", until the sunrise

I wonder what it's like to be the rainmaker
I wonder what it's like to know that I make the rain
I'd store it in boxes with little yellow tags on everyone
And you can come see them when I'm...done, when I'm
Done
I wonder what it's like to be a super hero
I wonder where I'd go if I could fly around downtown
From some other planet, I get this funky high on yellow

I
I could be anything
But for the fault that I've acquired on my way
We
We were the end of it
But now we see the sun shining in our face
We see the sun shining in our face

OUTSIDE IN AMERICA
EVERYBODY’S JUST WAKING UP
DRINKING COFFEE FROM A PAPER CUP
TO THE SOUND OF THE RADIO
AND THERE’S A BROKE DOWN GIRL
IN A PARKING LOT
SHAKING OFF HER DRESS
WITH EVERYTHING SHE’S GOT

I found out
on a late night drive
in my winter coat
with my blood-shot eyes
my faith ain't been
no friend to me
and the way I sin
is hanging off of me

she wanted something just like the real thing
he needed love and it all worked out some how
he knows that love is the king of emotion
but he can't touch her because she's too perfect now

but she wasn't like that then and
he wasn't like that then
they were everything, everything they need

Slow dancing on the boulevard
In the quiet moments while the city's still dark
Sleepwalking through the summer rain
In the tired spaces you could hear her name

When she was warm and tender and you
Held her arms around you
There was nothing, but her

Morning falls like rain into the city life
There goes another night
Losing my breath in waves
Knowing that ever crash is bleading the hourglass
And taking the strife from all our lives

Everyone keeps talking
They promise you everything

All day, staring at the ceiling
Making friends with shadows on my wall
All night, hearing voices telling me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something
Hold on, feeling like im heading for a breakdown
And I don't know why

You were gonna be the one to tell me when u couldn't take it
Take it
And I was gonna be the one to tell you that it ain't so bad
But if nobody cares and why should we try hard
Don't make you crazy, were just
Spinning all around in circles on our head
and you Said
I've been waiting on a train that'll never come
