Constant quick fixes, don't make no sense
Hop on bandwagons, you make me sick

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
When you're living in the shadows
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
When you're living in the shadows

Distant loud chuckles, keep me awake
Awkward instances won't you make you hip

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
When you're living in the shadows
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
When you're living in the shadows

We've said this all before, your shadow's at the door,
We've said this all before, your shadow's at the door,
There's darkness in the hall and we won't take the fall!

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
When you're living in the shadows
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
When you're living in the shadows

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
When you're living in the shadows
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
When you're living in the shadows

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
When you're living in the shadows
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
When you're living in the shadows

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
When you're living in the shadows
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
When you're living in the shadows

What you see is what you get (don't you know)
Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker
Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
[x2]

Today I don't feel pretty
And i'm tired of trying to fit right in
Don't think that you're so great
Cause being great must suck

We don't always see the bright side
We all need ego suicide
You hung my head today
But I have licked my wounds and carried on

Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss my chimney
Reality is truly scaring me
So stand up straight and firmly say

What you see is what you get (don't you know)
Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker
Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
[x2]

My heart is in the right place
So wipe that smirk right off your face
Don't make me feel like that
Cause that's just plain not nice

We don't always see the bright side
And I lied when I said I was fine
You slapped my face today
But I have licked my wounds and carried on

Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss my chimney
Reality is truly scaring me
So stand up straight and firmly say

What you see is what you get (don't you know)
Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker
Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
[x2]

Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss my chimney
You stole my luck from me
And now my fortune cookie's empty
Cause you came and you stole it all from me
So stand up straight and firmly say

What you see is what you get (don't you know)
Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker
Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
[x2]

Forced conversation, hidden agenda, you think we're
stupid how dare you! The rug has not been pulled over
our eyes you fool, we can see right through!

Tip toeing villain, eyes in the ceiling, your false intentions
have worns thin... But we've been in your room and in your
closet too, we've got one on you!

Lies... make it better
Lies... are forever
Lies... to go home to
Lies... to wake up to
Lies... from the altar
Lies... make you falter
Lies... keep your mouth fed
Lies... till your death bed... lies

Inside an office, a fallen angel, a smiling Buddha with
snake eyes, Creates the latest trends, and
I just can't pretend, don't call me your friend!

Lies... make it better
Lies... are forever
Lies... to go home to
Lies... to wake up to
Lies... from the altar
Lies... make you falter
Lies... keep your mouth fed
Lies... till your death bed... lies

Lies... make it better
Lies... are forever
Lies... to go home to
Lies... to wake up to
Lies... from the altar
Lies... make you falter
Lies... keep your mouth fed
Lies... till your death bed... lies

Lies will come back to hunt you...
bullet proof your limousine
Lies will come back to hunt you...
hit and run a broken dream!

Lies... make it better
Lies... are forever
Lies... to go home to
Lies... to wake up to
Lies... from the altar
Lies... make you falter
Lies... keep your mouth fed
Lies... till your death bed... lies

Lies... make it better
Lies... are forever
Lies... to go home to
Lies... to wake up to
Lies... from the altar
Lies... make you falter
Lies... keep your mouth fed
Lies... till your death bed... lies

Well, I looked at her face and then I knew she changed,
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!

So I sat in my room for 27 days,
No she never called, I had something to say!
No she never called, I had something to say!

I don't know much and I don't know how...

Why would she put me through such torture,
I would have given my life for her,
She was the one that knocked me over,
Now I'm alone sitting on the corner

Well, I heard she's great and her new boyfriend's lame,
She can go to hell I'll never be the same!
She can go to hell I'll never be the same!

And these open wounds will heal with time they say,
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!

I don't know much and I don't know how...

Why would she put me through such torture,
I would have given my life for her,
She was the one that knocked me over,
Now I'm alone sitting on the corner

Why would she put me through such torture,
I would have given my life for her,
She was the one that knocked me over,
Now I'm alone sitting on the corner

I don't know much and I don't know how...

Why would she put me through such torture,
I would have given my life for her,
She was the one that knocked me over,
Now I'm alone sitting on the corner

Why would she put me through such torture,
I would have given my life for her,
She was the one that knocked me over,
Now I'm alone sitting on the corner

My head, it hurts, each day its getting worse
My looks, and smile, have now become my curse
Tight lips, red skirt, the never ending street
Big car, little man, my lover for a fee

So if you see me will you just drive on by
And will I catch that twinkle inside your eye
And if you want me, well I guess I want you
Oh pretty baby how could you?

Standing in the rain
Milk carton, mug shot baby
Missing since 1983
Standing in the rain
20 years of dirty needles
Rain drops runnin' through my veins

My head it hurts, each day its getting worse
No sun, my room, has now become my hearse
Cold sores, i'm beat, got bruises on my feet
My pride, these men, have taken it from me

So if you see me will you just drive on by
And well I catch that twinkle inside your eye
And if you want me, well I guess I want you
Oh pretty baby how could you?

Standing in the rain
Milk carton, mug shot baby
Missing since 1983
Standing in the rain
20 years of dirty needles
Rain drops runnin' through my veins

Standing in the rain
Milk carton, mug shot baby
Missing since 1983
Standing in the rain
20 years of dirty needles
Rain drops runnin' through my veins

So if you see me will you just drive on by
And well I catch that twinkle inside your eye
And if you want me, well I guess I want you
Oh pretty baby how could you?

Standing in the rain
Standing in the rain
Standing in the rain
Milk carton, mug shot baby
Mother I have lost my way

Standing in the rain
Milk carton mug shot baby
Missing since 1983
Standing in the rain
20 years of dirty needles
Rain drops runnin' through my veins
Standing in the rain
Mother I have lost my way
Standing in the rain
Mother I have lost my way

Oh my girl
You're so hot when you walk you melt snow
And now that disco has finally grown old
Lets buy back our souls
So lets see
Ya we've got 5 bucks between you and me
My mental dishes are finally clean
So cleared are we

Cut the Curtains
The actors have gone home
The intermission's a mission on it's own

Now here seems our wax wings have melted away
And we've only been here for one day
My faith fades away
So don't be a grey cloud when there's none in the sky
We found there's no hidden treasure to find
At least we tried

Cut the Curtains
The actors have gone home
The intermission is a mission on it's own
So cut the curtains
The actors have gone home
Grab your suitcase we don't have time to fold

There is no doubt you throw your inbox out

Cut the Curtains
The actors have gone home
The intermission is a mission on it's own
So cut the curtains
The actors have gone home
Grab your suitcase we don't have time to fold

we don't have time to fold

I'd never bite off more then i could chew
But then she came and bit me
I'd never bite off more then i could chew
But then she bit my leg
She said
Don't wanna work
I wanna play
And live my life like it was Sunday
The only problem is that Sunday only comes now once a week
And I'm a freak but

We're breaking up the city
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
A prisoner of today

My body's tired my souls excited
And i wish that i was gifted
My body's tired my souls excited
And i wish i had some spunk
She said
I wanna run i wanna hide
And leave this place
Just like it left me
The only problem is I need to find the balls to follow through
And thats the truth but

We're breaking up the city
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
A prisoner of today
We're breaking up the city
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
A prisoner of today (no time for one another)

Well this is our time
Well this is our time
Well this is our time
And our place
History I
History I
History I
Can't erase
Well this is our time
Well this is our time
Well this is our time
And our place

We're breaking up the city
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
A prisoner of today
We're breaking up the city
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
A prisoner of today (no time for one another)

Theres No time For One Another

Dont wait for
A knight in shining armor
Your saviour's
Reflected in the mirror
These flowers
Have grown from blood stains on the ground

Go rake the
Leaves off your grass and my grave
The fact is
Everyone bleeds when they shave
Theres no use,
So don't deny we're just the same

We'll take it back
Broken dagger, southern swagger
Voices of violence, voices of violence
We'll take it back
Broken dagger, southern swagger
Voice of violence, voices of violence

These cowboys
Will run off in the sunset
Once their toys
Have turned another profit
Back fire,
Their smoking guns will never rest

Unleash the
Skeletons from the closet
These Strangers
Like friends that you never meet
They'll send them
Sympathies with a Hallmark card

We'll take it back
Broken dager, southern swagger
Voices of violence, voices of violence
We'll take it back
Broken dagger, southern swagger
Voices of violence, voices of violence

Even after im dead and buried
I'll still remember, I'll still remember
Even after im dead and buried
I'll still remember, I'll still remember
Even after im dead and buried
I'll come back fighting, I'll come back fighting

We'll take it back
Voices of violence, voices of violence
We'll take it back
Voices of violence, voices of violence

Voices of violence will always be heard
Voices of violence, voices of violence
voices of violence will always be heard
Voices of violence, voices of violence
