Forever Family
Searching my mind for something to say, The sun's
coming up from a three state drive, 14,000 miles and nothing less than
sympathy, I know we'll make it, I know we'll survive. Some might say we'll
amount to nothing, But hey man, Let me tell you something, at least we're
still fighting for something we really believe, And I know that I can go
on and on and on. So let it be known, We're young, We're strong, We're
stuck together forever, And let it be me who takes you to the water's edge.
Forever family! We're one, We're young, And we're together, Let it be me
who takes you to the water's edge. Forever family! Staring out the window
on the west side of Cleveland, The glass girl comes, You know we got to
beat 'em, Another cup of coffee to get us through this mess, I still remember
you in the red dress. Some might say we'll amount to nothing, But hey man,
Let me tell you something, at least we're still fighting for something
we really believe, And I know that I can go on and on and on. So let it
be known, We're young, We're strong, We're stuck together forever, And
let it be me who takes you to the water's edge. Forever family! We're young,
We're strong, And were together, And let it be me who takes you to the
water's edge. Forever family! Searching my mind for something to say, The
sun's coming up from a three state drive, 14,000 miles and nothing less

water's edge. Forever family!

Just another boy fueled by the revolution, Just
another unlucky soul left for you to tread on, Just another one living
in this mass confusion, Just another empty hearted soul left for you to
burn! Automatic is the way that she moves, It's an illusion, And in time
I think I'll believe that it was good to know you, So I live by my words
and my own convictions, But for now I'll have to believe I'm living to
learn. So hard to forgive what I could never forget, When your words they
cut so deep, So I pick the scabs with nothing left to lose, You know I've
got the scars to prove. So hard to forgive what I could never forget, When
your words they cut so deep, So I pick the scabs with nothing left to lose,

FM
We'll always have the radio blasting out the songs
that we sang long ago, There was a time when I tried to believe that there
was something left inside for me. Whoa oh, And I was told, You'll always
have the radio, Sometimes I wish it wasn't so, We'll always have the radio,
Small town and no place to go, When I lose myself in the radio song, We'll
always have the radio, Small town and no place to go, When I lose myself
in the radio song. We'll always have the stars above falling from the night
in skies when I'm alone, There was a time when I tried to believe there
was something left inside of me. Whoa oh, And I was told, You'll always
have the radio, Sometimes I wish it wasn't so, We'll always have the radio,

Dirty Faces
Take a walk down the boulevard, All the broken
dreams, And all the beat up cars, And it always seems to come across that
way, Come along as we watch the street, But looking at you is like pulling
teeth, When you always hear that way you'll say... Go! You don't know what's
going on, I've been here all too long, All the dreams all the broken glass,
Hey, I'm still in this town, I'm walking on the broken glass, And then
you slip on top the broken glass. We're all looking for our places, Sit
and have a little wine, And we all have dirty faces, And we all fall down
to die. Take a walk down the beaten path, Because nothing good was meant
to last, And it always seems to come across that way, Come along as we
watch the street, But looking at you is like pulling teeth, When you always
hear that way you'll say... Go! You don't know what's going on, I've been
here all too long, All the dreams all the broken glass. Hey, I'm still
in this town, I'm walking on the broken glass, And then you slip on top
the broken glass. We're all looking for our, Places sit and have a little
wine, And we all have dirty faces, And we all fall down to die, And we
all fall down to die, And we all fall down to die, And we all fall down
to die, And we all fall down to die. We're all looking for our places,
Sit and have a little wine, And we all have dirty faces, And we all fall
down to die. We're all looking for our places, Sit and have a little wine,
And we all have dirty faces, And we all fall down to die. And we all fall
down to die. And we all fall down to die.
Mr. Bowling
Surrender your feelings for nothing less, Than
a pat on the back, Our mixed up plan is to meet you, Smiles like that can
attack. This is the only way, The only way for me to stay real, This is
the only way, The only way for me to feel. His wife lays screaming, Laying
dead on the floor, The romance is never demising, Yet she's screaming for
more. This is the only way, The only way for me to stay real, This is the
only way, The only way for me to feel. This is the only way, The only way
for me to stay real, This is the only way, The only way for me to feel.
This is the only way, The only way for me to stay real, This is the only
way, The only way for me to feel. This is the only way, The only way for
me to stay real, This is the only way, The only way for me to feel.
Wasteland
I take two steps forward, And three steps back,
But I can watch myself, Watching my own back, Nothing said, And nothing
I've done, Will keep you, From the wasteland. These days are bringing me
nothing, Why do we find ourselves, Too scared to look inside? These days
are bringing me nothing, But when we find that place, We'll fit, But we
won't belong. Will be holding on, We're not gonna lose control, And we're
still holding on for our own day, Will be holding on, We're not gonna lose
control, And we're still holding on for our own day. Nothing I can do or
say, Will make you want to change your mind, I guess it's my turn to leave
you to, The wasteland. These days are bringing me nothing, Why do we find
ourselves, Too scared to look inside? These days are bringing me nothing,
But when we find that place, We'll fit, But we won't belong. Will be holding
on, We're not gonna lose control, And we're still holding on for our own
day, Will be holding on, We're not gonna lose control, And we're still
holding on for our own day. 1, 2, 3, go! These days are bringing me nothing,
Why do we find ourselves, Too scared to look inside, These days are bringing
me nothing, But when we find that place, We'll fit, But we won't belong.
Will be holding on, We're not gonna lose control, And we're still holding
on for our own day, Will be holding on, We're not gonna lose control, And
we're still holding on for our own day.
Broadway
Outside just an hour ago, I see it on the corner
and the city below, Inside you know we're all alone, But we all need a
place to go, I seen it on the corners, And the avenues, Outside you know
we'll find a home. When I sing a song about the city tonight, I leave the
lights behind, You know it's lost inside, And you know I'm right, I leave
the city behind. Outside in the streets below, I've seen it in the faces,
And know it's so, In time you know we're on our own, But we all need a
place to go, I seen it on the corners and the avenues, Outside you know
I'll find a home. We're running down Broadway, And there's no place I'd
rather be, When I sing a song about the city tonight, I leave the lights
behind, You know it's lost inside, And you know I'm right, And inside you
know I'm right, I leave the city behind. We're running down Broadway, And
there's no place I'd rather be, When I sing a song about the city tonight,
I leave the lights behind, You know it's lost inside, And you know I'm
right, And inside you know I'm right, I leave the city behind, Behind,
Behind, Behind.
Bottlecaps
A twist off bottle cap's, Broken on my teeth again,
I'm tired and the toll is on you. I'm six feet under but, Tripping on my
soul again, I'm twisted and I'm broken and bruised. We jump back, Stuck
in the middle, Lost track, Not knowing what we're gonna lose. I'm stoned,
And I'm running on empty, Trying to save myself, My best bet is looking
on you, I step outside, You know that it could blow my mind, I'm twisted,
And I'm broken in two. We jump back, Stuck in the middle, Lost track, Not
knowing what we're gonna lose. We jump back, Stuck in the middle, Lost
track, We're looking for a little, Our backs are broken, But were doing
all right, Not knowing what we're gonna lose. A twist off bottle cap's,
Broken on my teeth again, I'm tired and the toll is on you. I'm six feet
under but, Tripping on my soul again, I'm twisted and I'm broken and bruised.
We jump back, Stuck in the middle, Lost track, We're looking for a little,
Our backs are broken, But we're doing all right, Not knowing what we're
gonna lose.
St. Marks
I wanna go where the action is, I wanna run where
the good times roll, Where all the mods are hanging at the high, I wanna
go where the punkers run the corners, And they just sit around and beg,
Where they don't spill blood on the avenue. Riding on the subway heading
back for queens, Going home beneath the big apple, Going home back to my
scene? You can't say it's St. Marks fault, When he don't even own the block,
You can't say it's St. Marks fault, When he won't even come around. I wanna
go where the traffic is, I'm gonna run where the street lights shine, I
wanna play the game where the stakes are high, I wanna go where the drifters
run the corners, And they just sit around and beg, Where there's a 100
faces that you never known. You can't say it's St. Marks fault, When he
don't even own the block, You can't say it's St. Marks fault, When he won't
even come around. I wanna go where the action is, I wanna run where the
good times roll, Where all the mods are hanging at the high, I wanna go
where the punkers run the corners, And they just sit around and beg, Where
they don't spill blood on the avenue. Riding on the subway heading back
for queens, Going home beneath the big apple, Going home back to my scene?
You can't say it's St. Marks fault, When he don't even own the block, You
can't say it's St. Marks fault, When he won't even come around, Don't come
around. 1,2,3,4 You can't say it's St. Marks fault, When he don't even
own the block, You can't say it's St. Marks fault, When he won't even come
around.
MCA
Write a letter to myself of white flags and surrender,
I dig my trenches six feet deep, But where are you now? While we still
stand proud, And you're still tripping on your feet. So you better run
for cover, Boy, The revolution just pulled your fucking number, I've been
a vindictive man, I've been a man of power, But looking at you is just
like pulling teeth, I said looking at you is just like pulling teeth. So
here's to our past, From the bottom of our glass, That tilted, Spilled,
Hit the floor, Then smashed. So here's to our past, From the bottom of
our glass, That tilted, Spilled, Hit the floor, Then smashed. I've seen
a million faces, But I can't seem to forget the ones that burn me, But
where are you now? While we still stand proud, And you're still tripping
on your feet. So here's to our past, From the bottom of our glass, That
tilted, Spilled, Hit the floor, Then smashed. So here's to our past, From
the bottom of our glass, That tilted, Spilled, Hit the floor, Then smashed.
Who starts the riot? Then hides behind it? You sing the songs, But you
know we didn't buy it, When we heard it on the streets, And we held it
in our hearts, You made us what we hated, And you tore us all apart! Who
steps aside? You can't deny, You sing the songs, But you know we didn't
buy it, When we heard it on the streets, And we held it in our hearts,
You made us what we hated, And you tore us all apart! So here's to our
past, From the bottom of our glass, That tilted, Spilled, Hit the floor,
Then smashed. So here's to our past, From the bottom of our glass, That

Shovel
I'm stuck here on the outside, But I'm trying to
get back in, I don't know what I'm looking for, And I'm not sure of who
I am, It's my second time through suicide, And I'm still fighting with
my friends, I'm stuck inside this shell of mine, Because I know no other
way. This time I'm stuck on the outside, No chance, Nothing worth fighting
for, I hope I find what I'm looking for. I'm stuck here on the outside,
But I'm trying to get back in, I don't know what I'm looking for, And I'm

Costello
So long ago, You stole the show, When you see there's
nothing you can do, With empty promises, Are empty as your eyes, Second
chance to make amends, When you see there's nothing you can do, With empty
pockets, Empty pride. Who starts a war? Second time, I'm out of line, When
you see there's nothing you can do, You sunk your promises, Are empty in
disguise, Second chance to make amends, When you see there's nothing you
can do, With empty pockets, Empty pride. Who drops the bomb? The smell
of sweet in young short hair girl, You know I live my life without her,
But second best is never good enough, It's never gonna be, Still it's beautiful,
And man, I think that it's beautiful, It doesn't change the way she looks
at me, Then she starts the war! So long ago, You stole the show, When you
see there's nothing you can do, With empty promises, Are empty as your
eyes, Second chance to make amends, When you see there's nothing you can
do, With empty pockets, Empty pride. Who drops the bomb? Na Na Na Na Na
Na oh Who starts a war? Who starts a war? And it's a war that we all know,
Who starts a war?

Tommy Gunn
There was a riot inside that took us by surprise,
But you can't say it's something we choose to leave behind, Some came running,
I know what else was done, When you can't see something, You know what
I have done. I know someone who never should have gone, And there's a riot
inside tonight! I know someone who never should have gone, And there's
a riot inside tonight! A riot inside tonight, A riot inside tonight. A
riot inside that teaches all a lie, But you can't stretch the truth, When
choose to step aside, Some came running, I know what else was done, When
you try to lose something, That you know is on the run. I know someone
who never should have gone, And there's a riot inside tonight! I know someone
who never should have gone, And there's a riot inside tonight! A riot inside
tonight, A riot inside tonight. A riot inside that teaches all a lie, But

Spite
Well I've paid my dues, And I've suffered through,
But I've seen both coasts, So much more than most, And I'll have done to
know in spite of you, And all I've done in spite of you. I've bent some
rules, And I've broke a few, But I know I'm living my life, It's true,
But second best is sickening but soon... And when I made the fist, It stole
my youth, And when I made the fist, It stole my youth, But I walked the
streets of Richmond my whole life through, And I'll I've done to know in
spite of you, And when I made the fist, It stole my youth, And when I made
the fist, It stole my youth. And I've been stuck in a corner, Not knowing
what I've done, I was lost in the darkness, But blinded by the sun, My
broken back is stiff and swollen and bruised, My broken back is stiff and
swollen and bruised, I've seen roads less traveled, And followed every
one, I've seen all four corners, Not liking anyone, All I've done in spite
of you. And when I made the fist, It stole my youth, And when I made the
fist, It stole my youth, But I walked the streets of Richmond my whole
life through, And I'll I've done to know in spite of you, And when I made
the fist, It stole my youth, And when I made the fist, It stole my youth.
And when I made the fist, It stole my youth, And when I made the fist,

Mary
Mary liked to run around, And break the hearts
of all the lonely boys in town, Again, Round and round and round she goes,
You know she proves she just don't give a damn, For you, ain't that so?
Running on and on she stands, You know she's living her life without a
better plan, Like you. And she just don't know, She steals the show, It's
all the same, Another boring game. Running on and on she goes, You know
she's living her life, But still it just won't show, Like you, Stuck in
the middle, Not knowing it was true, you can't trust the truth, Because
the truth was just a lie, To you, To you. And she just don't know, She
steals the show, It's all the same, Another boring game. She runs around,
She runs around, She's running out on you, She runs around, She runs around,
She's running out on you, She runs around, She runs around, There's nothing
you can do, She runs around, She runs around, She's running out on you.
I don't know what Mary's gonna do, Then she's standing in the rain, She
says she only sings the blues, And down and down and out she goes, And
she leaves, Behind her broken heart, Her broken bones, For you, And stuck
in the middle, Not knowing what she's done, And you can't trust yourself,
And you know it's just the same old one, Was just a lie, To you, To you.
And she just don't know, She steals the show, It's all the same, Another
boring game. She runs around, She runs around, She's running out on you,

Baker St.
Sitting on the tracks, With the river rolling by,
I got a lot of shit, Stuck on my mind, So I take it all out on my very
best friend, You know it's goodbye, And we'll do the end. I try not to
bring it all down at once, It wasn't my plan, It's not what I want, I got
no ticket, And I got no place to go. 25 years with nothing to show, And
still I walk the tracks alone, And wash my hands in the river below, And
follow the streets to find my home. Finger on the trigger, So I pull it
in my side, Still fighting with myself, Still fighting inside, So I take
it all out on my very best friend, You know it's goodbye, And we'll do
the end. I try not to bring it all down at once, It wasn't my plan, It's

Efforts Wasted
When times undone, You know that it's impossible,
To make amends, I won't come around, I've come undone at every stitch and
every seam, And I've grown tired of wasting around. You don't know where
you're coming from, And you must think that you're ten feet tall, Since
you came around, And broken dreams are what you're bringing out. We stare
at girls standing on the corner, But chances are you won't come around,
I twist in time, A pocket full, A penny full, I break my mind and bring
me around. You don't know where you're coming from, And you must think
that you're ten feet tall, Since you came around, And broken dreams are
what you're running out, Since you came around, Second chance is better
left without. When times undone, You know that it's impossible, To make
amends, I won't come around, I've come undone at every stitch and every
seam, And I've grown tired of wasting around. We stare at girls standing
on the corner, But chances are that I could have known her, She picks me
back up, Just to walk away, She picks me back up, Just to walk away. It's
efforts wasted oh! It's efforts wasted oh! It's efforts wasted oh! It's
efforts wasted oh! When times undone, You know that it's impossible, To
