Losing Streak
You only know what you've been taught. You'll
never stop til you get caught. You control the future and it's looking
bleak. Seems like we're headed for another losing streak. And
the fire's burning bright And still we act like everything's all right
"I guess if we ignore it, it'll probably go away." If you believe
that bullshit please see exhibit A. Forget about friendship, hey!
Let's destroy the enemy. Well if there's one thing that I've learned
My enemies are just as close to me. You keep your problems deep inside.
You always play that game of run and hide. Even though they told
you to see is to believe, It didn't take you long to know that looks they
can deceive. Don't give up fighting til nothing else stands in your
way. Don't give up talking until there's nothing left to say But
no matter what you do. Don't ever compromise what you believe.
1*15*96
Let me start this from the day we met. You
looked so beautiful, I never will forget. Then you opened up your
eyes, looked at me and kinda smiled. I was scared, but still happy
at the same time. I never wanted us to be a superficial family.
But in the end it was the only thing we could be. Angie, I'm sorry
I wasn't right for you Just what did you expect for me to do? You
know that I would have done anything for you. I sometimes think about
how things could be If you would've took a chance and moved out here with
me. We'd cruise along the 101 in the California sun Sing Descendents
songs and have ourselves lots of fun. Stay out drinking really late
stumble home from lower State. Treat every day like it would be our
first date. Angie, I'm sorry that you weren't right for me.
I guess that it just wasn't meant to be. I quit pretending you were
in love with me.
San Dimas High School Football Rules
Last night I had a dream that we went to Disneyland,
Went on all the rides, didn't have to wait in line. I drove you to
your house where we stared up at the stars I listened to your heartbeat
as I held you in my arms. We hung out at the rainbow where we drank
til' half past two. Nothing could go wrong anytime that I'm with
you. Like crashing a hotel room or leading up to that first kiss
Or searching for a high school that you know doesn't exist... These are
the things that make me free I feel like I'm stuck in "stand by me" This
night was too good to be true. Today I woke up alone wishing you
were here with me, I wanted us to be something that we'd probably never
be. Today you called me up and said you'd see me at our show, But
now I'm stuck debating if I even wanna go. Whitney, don't you understand
that what I say is true? I just want you to know I have a major crush
on you. I'd drive you to Las Vegas and do the things you wanna do
I'd even have Wayne Newton dedicate a song to you. I only wish that
this could be Just dump your boyfriend and go out with me I swear I'd treat
you like a queen.
Your Boyfriend Sucks
You're better off without him, don't call him...
He's breaking your heart. He's hanging with your best friend and
your waiting there, It's tearing you apart. He lied to you a thousand
times, When I was there he kept you waiting. And I'm still here waiting
there To catch you if you fall. I don't know why I care so much When
I shouldn't care at all. Finally got the nerve to tell you How much
you mean to me you said that I was your best friend, A real sweet guy,
but that's all I'd ever be.
I Won't Spend Another Night Alone
A star up in the sky goes slowly passing by, The
lights below... they spell out your name. You're comfort on my mind
and you're with me all the time. And lot's of feeling that I can't
explain. I won't spend another night alone. Out of every girl
I meet, no other can compete I'd ditch em all for a night with you.
I know you don't believe you mean this much to me But I promise you that
you do. If I had one wish this is what it would be... I'd ask you
to spend all your time with me, That we'd be together forever. We'd
buy a small house in south central L.A. Raise lots of kids then we'd
both join a gang Just as long as we're together. The things you make
me wanna do I'd rob a quik-e-mart for you I'd go to the pound and let all
the cats go free Just as long as you'd be with me.
Broken Promise Ring
I really wanna call you, but I know that it's not
right. I probably shouldn't tell you but I dreamt of you last night.
I guess I'm not prepared to say... Goodbye, so long, farewell, I won't
be seeing you again Until next time that he goes away. You told me
that you loved me, I started tearing down those walls. I really started
to trust you but you set me up to take the fall. I guess I'm not
prepared to say... Goodbye, so long, farewell, I won't be seeing you again
Until next time that he goes away. I guess that I'm wrong for falling
in love, But you're still the one that I'm dreaming of. I guess that
it's you I want to hold onto, But you're holding onto someone else.
Angry Nerd Rock
Time to burn it all away, time to think of what
to say Time to go right back to yesterday. Time for movements in
the past, time for something that won't last. Not just fire quick
and die off fast. Things are never what they seem, I'm stuck inside
of someone else's dream. Problems never go away... I'm sick of being
caught in yesterday. Every day it's still the same, different faces,
different names, But still stuck here playing these stupid games.
Maybe soon I'll figure out what giving up is all about. My heart
is filled so full of doubt. Don't turn around, don't look ahead I
won't listen to all the lies I'm fed. Don't have to listen to you
So don't you fucking tell me what to do.
The Last Song I Will Ever Write About A Girl
Broken heart again today... The flowers that I
gave to you have withered all away. Just when I opened up my heart
The one you used to love came and ripped it right apart. Why do I
never seem to learn? That love is wrong and girls are fucking evil.
I guess I'll never figure out What womankind is all about. I heard
your voice again today I'm scarred by all the lies that were once promises
you'd made. I lie in bed awake at night And wonder what went wrong
or even more just what went right.
Choices
Well I've got a couple things to say about a guy
and a girl They met a few months back at a coffeehouse He said 'I like
that dress that you're wearing Why don't you just let me take you home
tonight?" I know you've heard it all before And everyone makes mistakes
these days... hey nobody's perfect But the choices that you make may involve
someone else. Well I met a girl I thought I loved but, unfortunately
I guess I didn't take the time to get to know that girl Before I made a
lot of choices That I wasn't prepared to make. If you think you've
found that one That you really love... Make sure they love you back.
Better Way
Looking for a place to call my home Where will
I sleep tonight, even I don't know. You ask yourself "is this how
I want to live?" When empty hands have nothing more to give.
So I drive around and pray that I will make it through today There's got
to be a better way. You miss your wife; you miss your little girl.
You left them stranded in a different world. Can you forgive yourself
for all the time you've lost? I wouldn't give that up at any cost.
There's more to life than being in a band, Your friends are what will matter
in the end. I just want the chance to keep those promises I made
There's got to be better way.
My Hotel Year (acoustic version)
I saw the stars fall from the sky And watched the
tail lights fade away As the sun began to witness a new day. I drove
five hundred thousand miles To find a world unlike my own, And now middle
of nowhere seems like my home. Alone, unknown... Yet fearing nothing
but ourselves Could be scarier than any crowded room. I'm more alone
with you than when I'm by myself. Another night stuck on the vine,
Another low lit memory Where time will slowly have it's way with me.
We live our lives to expect the worst But once it happens what is left?
We will never have to be surprised again. Just you and me not saying
much of anything Sometimes could mean more than a thousand words goodbye,
farewell to this fucked up world that was my former self.
Life Makes No Sense
Everything is turning gray, but I won't hold my
breath today Cause I'm not scared and to tell the truth I just don't care.
Are you looking for an answer? When you still don't know the question.
It's like lighting candles in the rain Sometimes life can be a pain, But
don't give up without a fight. Sometimes when you feel afraid, don't
give up and run away. Cause two wrongs don't make a right.
What's the point in crying when you've don nothing wrong. It was
right there all along. The world's nothing but a lie and everyone
is going to die But what can I say? Just help me make it through
today. You don't need a destination just to go somewhere in life.
It's like throwing feathers at the wind They come right back to you again.
So why not give it one more try? Just cause things aren't what they
seem It doesn't mean you shouldn't dream Just don't get your hopes to high.
Cause when things don't turn out right You world comes crashing down.
Answer
I sat and thought the other day how it seems strange
That we could walk through life so blind And how a lot of people never
change. I'm not trying to say I have the answer All I know for sure
is that we weren't put here To serve ourselves, that's so selfish To think
that we're put on this earth just for pleasure I know that there's much
more than that. But I won't tell you what it is; it's up to you To
decide for yourself what is wrong and what is right And know that we all
make mistakes, there's always time To turn your life around and change
All the wrong decisions that you've made. And I promise that I won't
settle for less. I won't write it off.
In Spite Of The World
I woke up from this dream to find that I was sleeping
So I went back to sleep and I dreamed I was awake. I locked myself
inside but you were on the outside I stood outside and watched but I couldn't
let you in. Maybe you could see inside yourself. Wrote a letter
to myself, but I couldn't bare to send it. So I tore it up and wrote
a letter to a friend. If only you could know that growing up means
letting go Maybe then you'd grow up by yourself. I'm growing up again...
I'm learning to accept that all good things must come to an end.
I'm growing up again... I'm trying to understand what it's like To let
go of a friend.
