Short Ride Down
02:49
|

I could be the president, I could be another liar
I could be a winner or a racecar driver
I would be your wonder woman; I would be your superman
I would be the one if we could just go higher
Anything I wanna be, anytime is good for me
Anything I wonder I could be, I could be
Anything I wanna be, anytime is good for me
Anything I wonder I could be, I could be anything
It's a long way up - It's a short ride down
You wouldn't want to walk away with out a doubt in your mind
Holding back now seems so unkind
Should have told you no when I still knew what that meant
Somehow it makes sense
Anything I wanna be, anytime is good for me
Anything I wonder I could be, I could be
Anything I wanna be, anytime is good for me
Anything I wonder I could be, I could be anything
(solo)
It's a long way up - It's a short ride down

You Don't Know
03:29

You never look my way, I never thought I would say
But it won't go away, I never want it to
Lately I've been run-run-running
Save my ship, yeah save myself today
It won't be long now, I'll just be patient
Yeah it'll come along soon, no more waiting
And if you're so smart then hang up the phone
(We will right an old wrong)
And if you know the words why don't you sing along?
(We will right an old wrong)
And if it's too hard, then don't come home
Lately I've been run-run-running, save my ship, yeah
Save myself today, and it won't be long now
I'll just be patient; yeah it'll come along soon
No more waiting
And if you're so smart then hang up the phone.
(We will right an old wrong)
And if you know the words why don't you sing along?
(We will right an old wrong)
And if it's too hard, then don't come home, home, home, home...

What Gives
03:26

Say I'm all right, everything is cool and okay
So turn out the light, Watch my world slowly slip away
With everything I try so hard, and this is what I get
So what gives? - Yeah What Gives
Oh I've been damned
Say I'm okay, but nothing ever seemed to go my way
So hold on tight, this is gonna be one hell of a ride
When everything’s in everyone and if it starts to come undone
I would never find my way to you
When everything is said and done, I could never be that strong
I would never be that cool to you
With everything I try so hard, and this is what I get
So what gives? - Yeah What Gives?
Oh what gives? - Yeah what gives?
Oh I've been damned
(solo)
So what gives? So what gives? So what gives? So what gives?
When everything’s in everyone and if it starts to come undone
I would never find my way to you
When everything is said and done, will I ever be that strong
I would never be that cool to you
With everything I try so hard, and this is what I get
With everything I try so hard, and this is what I get
So what gives? - Yeah What Gives?
Oh what gives? - Yeah what gives?
Oh I've been damned. Oh I've been damned
Oh I've been damned. Oh I’ve been...

Fly Far Away
02:52

She thought she could fly with a 5 year old heart
She closed her eyes, jumped and broke her arm that day
Never really cared about the guys that much
Never really known if she was ever loved, she said that day
I said, no way
.
Let's go, let's go somewhere
Let's go, let's go somewhere
We could take a train down to Mexico
We could write our name where no one knows it's queer
And every now and then I know it seems a little tough
And every now and then I know you want to give up, but don't
I'm here, I know it's weird
Let's go, let's go somewhere
Let’s go, let’s go somewhere
(solo)
(chorus)
She thought she could fly with a 5 year old heart
She closed her eyes, jumped and broke her arm that day

Cigarette Kiss
03:17
|
|||
You're everything I, I try to resist
With wide-open eyes, I swore I would miss
If this is the way the way it all ends
With a smile on my face, and my heart on my sleeve
Hey I'm just myself when I just me
If this is way it all is...I'll never forget...
Your cigarette kiss
And I don't wanna, I don't wanna be in your way
And I don't wanna, I don't wanna be a mistake
I don't want to see those blue eyes cry
I don't wanna, I don't wanna find my way home
I don't wanna, I don't wanna be all-alone
I don't want to see this whole thing
I'll never forget
Your cigarette kiss, hey I can live.
With a cigarette kiss, and I can live.
Cigarette, (cigarette kiss)
Your cigarette kiss, and I can live.
The cigarette kiss, and I can live.

Pieces
02:46
|

I watch you
I see you, fall down on your face again
And you just lay there
It's all the same; it's all the same
But you're scaring me
I can barely see
Stop scaring me to pieces
And I can't live like this
There are so many things I would miss
I call you; I call your name,
And then climb another fence
Would I -if you- yes I would, I'd be right by your side
But I won't watch you throw your head up to the sky
Stop scaring me
I can barely see
Stop scaring me to pieces
If I could I would be, and if I was there I don’t wanna see
If I would I would be, yes I'll always be there
Stop scaring me
I can barely see
Stop scaring me to pieces
Ohhhh you're scaring me
I can barely see
Stop scaring me to pieces

Lost On Earth
01:55
|
|||
I feel inside out, turned around
I haven't been myself these days
And I can be so wrong, or so right on
Just depending on the day
And it's a long way home
Don't you thing you ought to stay?
Cuz it's a long way home
I really thing you ought to stay with me
I hold my head up high, pretend I'm fine
I'm still kind of wondering why
Because if it's you I want,
It’s silly to play, all these little stupid games
Cuz it's a long way home
I really thing you ought to stay
Cuz it's a long way home
I really thing you ought to stay with me
