Lyrics


1. I'M DOWN

What the hell do you know, you say
As you turn your face right back to me
What the hell do you know, you say
Like some righteous man better than me
Well, I'm down, and you're killing me
And I'm down, but still you mean nothing to me

What the hell do you know, you say
As you try to shrink me to your size
What the hell do you know, you say
Just because you're scared to try
Well, I'm down, and you're killing me
And I'm down, but still you mean nothing to me

Here we go, singing the same song you've heard a thousand times
You think you know the answer
Yeah, you won't try it
And you deny it
It's the same damn song you've heard a thousand times

'Cause I'm down, and you're killing me
Yeah, I'm down, and you're killing me
Well, I'm down, yeah, I'm down...

What the hell do you know, you say
Well, I think I know way more than you
What the hell do you know, you say
'Cause I know to myself I am true
Well, I'm down, and you're killing me
Yeah, I'm down, and you're killing me
When you're down, well, I'll walk away
When you're down... but still you mean fuck-all to me
Yeah, nothing to me


2. PICK A FIGHT

[Chorus]
I can't be happy without you
You can't be happy without me
Still you always wanna pick a fight now
You say it's written in the stars
Some psychic read it in my cards
Still you always wanna pick a fight with me

You say that I'm the only one
The one you're looking for
Try and keep a straight face when you laugh
You talk to me like I'm a saint
But all your friends just say
We have been so over for some time

And I know that you had the best intentions for me
I know that what you're saying is goodbye

[Chorus]
You say you changed your mind again
You don't know how you feel
Give me some more time is what you say
You wanna use me like a toy
That you get bored with
Now you wanna store me far away

And I know that you had the best intentions for me
I know that what you're saying is goodbye... goodbye

[Chorus]

I can't be happy without you
I can't be happy without me
Still you always wanna pick a fight with me
I can't be happy without you
I can't be happy without me
Still you always wanna pick a fight with me

You always say what you don't mean
You always say the things that hurt me
Why do you pick a fight with me ?
You always say what you don't mean
You always say the things that hurt me
Why do you pick a fight
Why do you pick a fight
You always pick a fight with me


3. CARRY ON

Words they echo in my mind
Feelings that slow down the time
I don't know if I'm forwards or behind

Eyes are staring out at me
And people all surrounding me
All the hands upon me - now I'm lost

I only wish that you were here
with you fear seems to disappear
If only I could take back how I feel

I only wanna be ok
But I don't know another way
Destroys the thing that means the most to me

It seems familiar
I've been here before
yeah it's all I need to read my thoughts now

[Chorus]
Carry on, carry on
Count the things that I've done wrong
Cut me down til there's nothing left now (x2)

Find it hard to concentrate
And i can never meditate
Try to get my mind right off of you

No matter how I feel today
I only know that things'll change
And i don't really care if you felt good

I seem familiar
You've been here before
Yeah it's all I need to read my thoughts now

[Chorus]

[Chorus] (x4)


4. THE END OF THE DAY

At the end of the day I do just what I want
At the end of the day I play just when I want
At the end of the day I do just what I want
At the end of the day I play just when I want

Go

Who the fuck are you to say
What I can or cannot do?
You talk shit about me constantly
With your weakless metal crew.

Spreading lies about me, cry about me
Like it's your god given task
If you spent more time thinking about me
I'd have your head right up my ass

[Chorus]
But at the end of the day I do just what I want
At the end of the day I play just when I want
You still need your mom to pay the rent

You call me a fake
You're giving me some punk rock test
You say how you could do so much better than me
But all you do is meth.

[Chorus]

Try do define what my music should be
Like you're an authority
I have my own teachers and I don't need your help

No matter what you say, no matter what I play
If I wanna play guitar

That's alright with me
I don't care if it's not alright with you
'Cause it's alright with me
I don't care if it's not alright with you
'Cause it's alright with me
I don't care if it's not alright with you
'Cause it's alright with me
I don't give a fuck if it's not OK
It's alright with me
I don't care if it's not alright with you
'Cause it's alright with me

Really, it's just music, after all...


5. DON'T SAY GOODBYE

I know the way that I have picked apart at you
And I know the way that I've had less importance too.
Lets try to find a way that we can work it out.
Don't say what I cant bear to hear.

[Chorus]
Don't say goodbye yeah yeah
Just one more try yeah yeah

I know the way my insecurities can grate.
I'd hate to judge myself against my perfect fate.
So when I'm actin' strange dont give up on our hope.
Don't say what I cant bear to hear.

[Chorus]

Well after all I'm telling you.
Don't waste your time, I will be home soon.

[Chorus] (x2)

After all I'm telling you. dont waste your time
I will be home
After all I'm telling you. dont waste your time
I will be home soon.


6. 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...


7. BRO

Your not my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro

You think you're my friend
But you just take from me

So now it's the end
Don't fuckin' smile just get the fuck away from me

[Chorus]
Bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro

You use your fake friends
Use them then throw them away

So now it's the end
Don't fuckin' smile just get the fuck away from me
Get the fuck away

Bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro

Now you have forsaken all that I have known
Now you've really taken me for everything I own.
And I want it back
I doubt you'll ever see
It's you that has to pay the price, and me who is set free
You're not my bro
You're not my bro

You're not my bro !
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it
Don't you pretend that you're my bro
Don't say it Don't you pretend


8. 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

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

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]


9. YOU THINK IT'S A JOKE

You thinks it's a joke, I find no reason,
Why I should laugh at you.
You think its a joke to take advantage
Of the life that supports you.

Push and push. suppress the weaker ones
You find two words, with emotions you are numb.
You think the world revolves around the things you buy.
I think of loneliness that you will die.

I want to defend defenseless, let the meek inherit the earth.
And your intelligence give you nothing to mask your ignorance.
If theres a God above to judge whats right and wrong.
Your careless attitude will soon be gone.

Why i should laugh at you.

I think of lonliness that you will die. you will...

You thinks its a joke, I find no reason,
Why I should laugh at you.
You think its a joke to take advantage
Of the life that supports you.

'Cause I find no reason.
Why I should laugh at you.

You think its a joke !


10. FORGIVENESS

So you've decided to blame him again
For all you choices
Seem like the softer way out
You think it just might make life easier
Than swallow will it
You've made a fine career out of guilt
Maybe he just did the best he could with what he had
Maybe he just did the best he could

Forgiveness forgiveness
Try and let it go why don't you
Forgiveness
Just might save yourself (x2)

12. GET AWAY

You ask me how I stay the same
After I'd seen everything
Could be the company I keep
You say I've got something you need
But what I have I just can't sell ya
Cause my experience runs deep
You wanna be a brave man
But you just can't face your fear
You only know what you can do

You say get away from
Just get away
Just get away
Cause I might tell you something

You think the world owes you a debt
And they should hand you your success
But you won't find it on tv
You cry about the luck you've had
You wear your bruises like a badge
You won't heal until you're willing
So now you think you need my help
But you're just to scared to ask
We'll I've been scared before my friend

Get way from me
Just get away from me
Just get away from me
Cause I might tell you something

Just get away from me
Just get away from me
Just get away from me
Cause I might tell you something

Get way from me
Just get away from me
Just get away from me
I might tell you something

Just get away from me
Just get away from me
Just get away from me
Cause I might tell you something (x2)

Something something something anything I'll tell ya
Something something something

Get way from me
Just get away from me
Just get away from me
Cause I might tell you something


13. 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.


14. DONUT DAN

Donut dan's gonna get a hummer from a man
Donut dan's gonna get a hummer from a man
Donut dan's gonna get a hummer
Donut dan's gonna get a hummer
Donut dan's gonna get a hummer from a man

And I won't tell your girl she's a man
