1. HERE IN YOUR BEDROOM

Here in your bedroom,
I can turn my head off
The less that I feel
Is the less that I'm on top

I wonder what you think
As we lay here in bed
I don't know what I'm thinking,
But that's better for my head

When I wake up tomorrow
Will you still feel the same ?
When I wake up tomorrow
Will you have changed?

[Chorus]

'Cuz I still feel the same
'Cuz I still feel the same
I, I still feel the same

Here in your bedroom
I can turn my head off
The less that I feel
Is the less that I'm on top

I wonder what you think
As we lay here in bed
I don't know what I'm thinking,
But that's better for my head

When I wake up tomorrow
Will you still feel the same ?
When I wake up tomorrow
Will you have changed ?

[Chorus]

Here we go !

Here in your bedroom,
I feel safe from the outside.
I can tell that you're changing,
But still I feel so high.

I wonder what you think.
Sometimes I feel so old.
I don't know if it's worth it
When I just do what I'm told.

When I wake up tomorrow,
Will you still feel the same ?
When I wake up tomorrow,
Will you have changed?

[Chorus]

I, I still feel the same
I, I still feel the same
Won't you ?


2. MABLE

I met her Sunday, that was yesterday
The girl I knew from 1990
Her eyes are hazel, her name is Mable
I kissed her once and now I'm able to

Walk a mile, crack a smile
She makes me want to kiss all the

[Chorus]

Babies, hug the puppy dogs
She makes me feel like a mom
Smell the flowers and plant a tree
I gotta say that Mable -- She's the bomb

Now it's Monday, better than Sunday
Mable told me that she would stay
Her curly hair shines in her eyes
Boy that Mable sure is fine

I'm with her now until I die
She makes me want to kiss all the

[Chorus]

Then on Tuesday, Mable left me
I heard she's goin' out with Charlie
She saw his package from what I know she said:
"That looks like a tube of cookie dough!"

Mine, she said then, looks like a small
Pencil with broken lead

Rabies got the puppy dogs
And now I really need my mom
I bought her flowers, so woe is me
It sucks I still think Mable -- she's the bomb

Rabies got the puppy dogs
So now I really need my mom
I bought her flowers, so woe is me
It sucks I still think Mable -- she's the bomb


3. MILES AWAY

How deep is your love ?
How deep is the ocean ?
How deep is the sea ?
And how deep is my love ?

How deep is your love ?
How deep is the ocean ?
How deep is the sea ?
And how deep is my love ?

[Chorus]

It's miles away
Miles away
Miles away
Yeah miles away

How much do you want ?
And how far can I take you ?
How bad does this hurt ?
How much do I want you ?

How blind can I be ?
So when can I see you ?
Will it ever be ?
And how deep is my love ?

[Chorus] (x2)

Let's go

[Chorus]


4. SUPERMAN

So here I am
Doing everything I can
Holding on to what I am
Pretending I'm a superman

I'm trying to keep
The ground on my feet
It seems the world's
Falling down around me

The nights are all long
I'm singing this song
To try and make the answers
More than maybe

And I'm so confused
About what to do
Sometimes I want
To throw it all away

So here I am
Growing older all the time
Looking older all the time
Feeling younger in my mind

And here I am
Doing everything I can
Holding on to what I am
Pretending I'm a superman

I'm trying to sleep
I lost count of the sheep
My mind is racing faster
Every minute

What could I do more
Yeah I'm really not sure
I know I'm running circles
But I can't quit

And I'm so confused
About what to do
Sometimes I want
To throw it all away

Controlling everything in site
I'm feeling weak
I don't feel right
You're telling me
I have to change
Telling me to act my age
But if all that I can do
Is just sit and watch time go
Then I'll have to say good-bye
Life's too short to watch it fly
To watch it fly

So here I am
Growing older all the time
Looking older all the time
Feeling younger in my mind

And here I am
Doing everything I can
Holding on to what I am
Pretending I'm a superman


5. IF ONLY

If only I was taller
If I had a million dollars
Maybe then you'd be with me

If only I was eighteen
And had the courage
Of the A-Team
Maybe then you'd be with me

But for now I'll have to dream
About your smile 'cause you're not
Here and all I want to say is
That I really miss you

If I could surf a little better
If I had Sumner's sweater
Maybe then you'd be with me

If only I had more time
If I had Mike Ness' hairline
Then you'd want to be with me

If only you weren't so fine
If only I wasn't so blind
I'd find a way
To make you stay
Then maybe I'd see you

If I woke up
With all these things
Would it even change your feelings
None of that is even me
But for now I'll have to
Wait another week
To see your face and all I want to say is
That I really miss you


6. THIS LONELY PLACE

You come around
To see your boyfriend
You come around
To feel the pain
It was yesterday he tried to use you
But you still go through it

Again you took it away
Again you let yourself stay

[Chorus]
I've been around
This lonely place
Lonely place before

You find out
He's been lying to you
You find he had another girl
Still you never
Stand up for yourself
You never stand up to him

He takes it away
Again you let yourself stay
Again you gave it to him
You said it's the last time
He does it again

I've been around
This lonely place
Lonely place before
You got a choice
To leave your place
Your lonely place behind
Be true to yourself
Now and let it go
It's better than you think


7. JUST LIKE HEAVEN

Show me, show me, show me
How you do that trick
"The one that makes me scream," she said
"The one that makes me laugh," she said
And threw her arms around my neck
Show me how you do it
And I promise you, I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you

Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face, I kissed her neck
And dreamed of all the different ways
I had to make her glow
"Why are you so far away," she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you,
That I'm in love with you?"

You... soft and only
You... lost and lonely
You... strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water, you're just like a dream
Just like a dream

Daylight whipped me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I open up my eyes
I find myself alone, alone, alone
Above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me.

You... soft and only
You... lost and lonely
You... just like heaven


8. COUNTING THE DAYS

So here I go and there you went...again
Just another stupid thing that I done wrong.
Locked up in my head, knocked down, beaten, left for dead
With all those brilliant things I should have said.
I gotta get away, and find something to do
'Cause everything I hear, everything I see, reminds me of you.

[Chorus]
Still counting the days I've been without you 1, 2, 3, 4...
Still counting the days that you've been gone.

Day one, was no fun.
Day two, i hated you.
By day three I wish you'd come right back to me.
Day four, five and six, well I guess you just don't give a shit.
Day seven, this is hell. this is hell.
I gotta get away, and find something to do.
But everything I hear, everything I see, reminds me of you.

Still counting the days I've been without you 1, 2, 3, 4...
Still counting the days that you've been gone.
Still counting the days since you left me. 1,2,3,4...
Still counting the days since you've been gone.

A thousand things I wanna say to you, but it's too late now.
A thousand things I wanna say...
A thousand things I wanna say to you, but it's too late now.
A thousand things I wanna say...

Still counting the days I've been without you.
Still counting the days that you've been gone.
Still counting the days I've been without you 1, 2, 3, 4...
Still counting the days that you've been gone.
Still counting the days since you left me 1, 2, 3, 4...
Still counting the days that you've been gone.
Gone...
Gone...
Gone...
Gone...


9. SAN SIMEON

Wherever I go, wherever I stay
My mind will always be
Wherever I go, wherever I stay
My mind will always be

[Chorus]
San Simeon

They try to rob me
Take away my integrity now
They try to snake me
Take away my dignity
But not my memory

Wherever I go, wherever I stay
My mind will always be
Wherever I go, wherever I stay
My mind will always be

[Chorus]

They try to blame me
Point their little fingers at me
They try to save me
But that just masks their jealousy
But not my memory

Wherever I go, wherever I stay
My mind will always be
Wherever I go, wherever I stay
My mind will always be

[Chorus]

Take me back (x7)

[Chorus]

No matter what they say
What they do to me
They can't touch me
They can't control me
One thing that they'll never touch
My holy memory
No, not my memory

(Repeat x2)
Now take me back
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back

Wherever I go, I'll stay
And my mind will always be
Wherever I go, I'll stay
And my mind will always be
Wherever I go, wherever I stay
My mind will always be
Wherever I go, wherever I stay
My mind will always be

[Chorus]


10. 99 RED BALLOONS

You and I in a little toy shop
buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Something's out there"
Floating in the summer sky
99 red balloons go by.

99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it's red alert
There's something here from somewhere else
The war machine, it springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
As 99 red balloons go by.

99 Decision Street, 99 ministers meet
To worry, worry, super-scurry
Call out the troops now in a hurry
This is what we've waited for
This is it boys, this is war
The president is on the line
As 99 red balloons go by.

99 Kriegsminister
Streichholz und Benzinkanister
Hielten sich für schlaue Leute
Witterten schon fette Beute
Riefen : Krieg und wollten Macht
Mann, wer haette das gedacht
Dass es einmal soweit kommt
Wegen 99 Luftballons

99 dreams I have had
In every one a red balloon
It's all over and I'm standin' pretty
In the dust that was a city
If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here...
And here it is, a red balloon
I think of you and let it go.


11. TELL ME

Tell me what it's like to be with you
Remind me of the things we use to do
And tell me that this time will never end
Tell me what it's like, tell me again

Everytime you stay
It never feels quite the same
And everytime you go
It hurts a way you'll never know

I guess your stories
Make me feel like it's alright now

Tell me what it's like to be with you
Remind me of the things we used to do
And tell me that this time will never end
Tell me what it's like, tell me again

Everything I fear
Shows itself everytime you're here
And everything I know
Leaves with you everytime that you go

I wish your stories
Could erase all the things that I said

So tell me what it's like to be with you
Remind me of the things we use to do
And tell me that this time will never end
Tell me what it's like, tell me again

You look that way (You look that way)
Don't wanna see you look that way
You talk that way (You talk that way)
Don't wanna feel this way

So tell me what it's like to be with you
Remind me of the things we use to do
And tell me that this time will never end
Tell me what it's like, tell me again


12. OPEN YOUR EYES

Open your eyes
To the millions of lies
That they tell you everyday
Open your mind
To the clever disguise
That the advertisements say

How do they know
What's good for you ?

Wake up, wake up, whoa
Wake up, wake up, whoa
A shot to the head
They're better off dead
Will you wake up, wake up, whoa

Destroy all the land
And kill what you can
Just to make the profits rise
Sell you from birth
For all that you're worth
The money spreads like lies

And how do they know
What's good for you ?

Wake up, wake up, whoa
Wake up, wake up, whoa
A shot to the head
They're better off dead
Will you wake up, wake up, whoa

Don't wanna hate you
Don't wanna blame it all on you
I'm out of options
If you don't look I'll force you to
If you don't look I'll force you to
If you don't look... I'll force you to

Wake up, wake up, whoa
Wake up, wake up, whoa
A shot to the head
Just so you can be fed
Will you wake up, wake up, whoa

Open your eyes...
Open your eye


13. SPOKESMAN

What happened to dignity
Did it go away again?
Just like some worn out trend?
Will I still defend emotions?
What happened to honesty?
I don't see it on the Top Ten
I only see it in what has been
Cuz I still defend devotion

Am I alone ?

[Chorus]
Don't wanna rest
I don't wanna breathe
When I wanna hear about life
Don't wanna hear a spokesman
I don't wanna test
I want to believe
The god damn singer wrote the song
Don't wanna hear a spokesman

What happened to integrity
I don't see it on MTV
All I see is choreography
And I'll never be a dancer
What happened to puberty ?
Bad skin and insecurity ?
And who the fuck is Felicity ?
Cuz I got problems of my own

Am I alone ?

[Chorus] (x3)
Don't wanna rest
I don't wanna breathe
When I wanna hear about life
Don't wanna hear a spokesman
I don't wanna test
I want to believe
The god damn singer wrote the song
Don't wanna hear a spokesman

I Don't wanna rest
And don't wanna breathe
When I wanna hear about life
Don't wanna hear a spokesman


14. THE INNOCENT

The start of Armageddon
And it's just another day
We all saw the news nothing to say

So many friends are missing
So many friends are missing
Family members gone
So we all preyed and God help them be strong

And now we stand together
Remembering that day
The lives we live will never be the same

And we don't know why
The innocent die
Will this world ever find a way to change ?

And we don't know why
But we know it's not right
We don't know why so many had to die
We don't know why so many had to die

Hate has turned to others
For their religion or their skin
But hate can't solve the problem it began

Everyone is angry
People are afraid
And no one knows what decisions will be made

And we don't know why
The innocent die
Will this world ever find a way to change ?

And we don't know why
But we know it's not right
We don't know why so many had to die
We don't know why so many had to die

And we don't know why
The innocent die
Will this world ever find a way to change ?

And we don't know why
But we know it's not right
Will any of us ever be the same ?
Will any of this ever be the same

And we don't know why
Will any of us ever be the same ?
Will any of this ever be the same


15. VINTAGE QUEEN

Once there was this girl I knew
She had all she could want
But her unhappiness
Preceded what she bought
She said, "Everyone around here
Is wasting my time"
All of her possessions
Couldn't make her feel fine
She wants everyone to sit around
And talk about her life
Don't ask her how she feels
'Cause that would be a lie

Don't tell me 'cause you know
I know it hurts
Don't tell me 'cause you know
It's gotten worse
Don't tell me 'cause you think
I don't know shit about the way you feel
Tell me 'cause
I don't want you to hurt

She sat around like a vintage queen
To complain about the world
She says how she's much better than you
She's a special girl
She said, "Everyone around here
Is wasting my time"
All of her boyfriends
Couldn't make her feel fine

Don't tell me 'cause you know
I know it hurts
Don't tell me 'cause you know
It's gotten worse
Don't tell me 'cause you think
I don't know shit about the way you feel
Tell me 'cause
I don't want you to hurt

She said, "Everyone around here
Is wasting my time"
All of her boyfriends
Couldn't make her feel fine

Don't tell me 'cause you know
I know it hurts
Don't tell me 'cause you know
It's gotten worse
Don't tell me 'cause you think
I don't know shit about the way you feel
Tell me 'cause
I don't want you to hurt

Don't tell me 'cause you know
I know it hurts
Don't tell me 'cause you know
It's gotten worse
Don't tell me 'cause you think
I don't know shit about the way you feel
Tell me 'cause

I don't want you to hurt


16. HOPELESS

Its been weeks since I felt good
its time to get out of bed
Not feeling like I should
Sometimes I feel dead
I see my life wasted all away

Sometimes I feel like a failure
Or am I just fed up
Sometimes it just seems useless
Or am I that fucked up
I feel hopeless
I shut down

Wonder where the time has gone
What day is it this week
I wish that I could stop my head
The future, it looks bleak
I see my life, but that was yesterday

Sometimes I feel like a failure
Or am I just fed up
Sometimes it just seems useless
Or am I that fucked up
I feel hopeless
I shut down

Sometimes I feel like a failure
Or am I just fed up
Sometimes it just seems useless
Or am I that fucked up
I feel hopeless
I shut down

No, I'm not a failure
Maybe just fed up
I'll never give up hoping
I know thats just fucked up
I'm not hopeless
I'm not shut down
I'm not hopeless
I'm not shut down


17. RIO

Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it's very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right
You catch that mirror way out west
But now you're something special and you look like you're the best

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio, dance across the Rio Grande

Ay yi yi like a steppin stone

I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on T.V.
Two, of a billion stars, it means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But im sure this fuckin song is just for you

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio, dance across the Rio Grande

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twists across a dusty land

Do do do do do do
