It's Over
03:10

Where do we go when everything seems like it's over?
Where do we go from here?
I grabbed my skateboard and my backpack off the table;
I ran the fuck right out the door
She yelled at me as I skated down the sidewalk;
I flipped her off, that fucking whore
Another night of thinking I was so wrong,
Another night like this
A cigarette, yeah, and the clicking of the sidewalk
Take me away from here...
Another block away, and thinking about the moment
When it all went wrong
I left a part of my life; now it's over,
But I've got my board
Another night of thinking I was so wrong,
Another night like this
A cigarette, yeah, and the clicking of the sidewalk
Take me away from here...
Where do we go, where do we go when it's over?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go, where do we go when it's over?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go when it seems like it's over?
Where do we go when it seems like it's over?
Where do we go when it seems like it's over?
Where do we go when it seems like it's over now?
Over now
Over now
Over now
Where do we go, where do we go when it's over?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go, where do we go when it's over?
Where do we go from here?

Don't Look Back
02:33

The sun sets in your eyes
As we say our goodbyes
One last time
Our fingers slide apart
As you walk through the door
Don't look back
You're better off whether
You like it or not
Now's your chance
Start over again
Don't look back
I can't sleep
So I drink
To clear my head
Of your face
Volumes traced
Back to the end
You're better off whether
You like it or not
Now's your chance
Start over again
Don't look back
I sit and think
Of all the things
We should've said
And should've done
There in the rain
It's pouring down
I can see it now
Just wipe those tears away...
Don't turn around
You're better off whether
You like it or not
Now's your chance
Start over again
Don't look back
Don't look back
Just start over again
Don't look back
Just start over again

No More Sad Songs

No more sad songs on the radio
No more tears for you
No more waiting by the phone
No more sad songs on the radio
No more tears for you
No more waiting by the phone for you
Turn it on
Tear it out
Your heart is not worth
Another second
You're breaking up
You've had enough
Of what it was that made you
Think about him
You're over
This moment
You're wasting
Your last goodbye
Now you can say
No more sad songs on the radio
No more tears for you
No more waiting by the phone
No more sad songs on the radio
No more tears for you
No more waiting by the phone for you
You're thinking
You're sinking
You think you're gonna drown,
But your feet can touch now
You're waking up
To your own life,
And what it means
To be somebody
You're over
This moment
You're wasting
Your last goodbye
Now you can say
No more sad songs on the radio
No more tears for you
No more waiting by the phone
No more sad songs on the radio
No more tears for you
No more waiting by the phone for you
Hold on
No more
You're waking up
It's over
Hold on
No more
You're waking up
It's over
You're over
This moment
You're wasting
Your last goodbye
Now you can say
No more sad songs on the radio
No more tears for you
No more waiting by the phone
No more sad songs on the radio
No more tears for you
No more waiting by the phone for you

She Found My Heart
02:31
|
|||
|
I never thought I could be
Someone totally
Not mixed up all the time
Someone that likes to smile
It never crossed my mind
That someday I might find
The part that I had lost
She found my heart
In a million pieces
There's like a million reasons
There's like a million miles
In between us
These sleepless night will end when
You're back here in my arms...
I had dream last night
And I felt that I
Could see into the future
A million miles
It then occurred to me
That I would always be
Completed by the possibility
Of us together
Just like the night we passed out
On the bathroom floor
When we're together
These sleepless nights will end when
You're back here in my arms...
In my arms
In my arms
Yeah...
I never thought I could be
Someone totally
Not mixed up all the time
Someone that likes to smile
It never crossed my mind
That someday I might find
The part that I had lost...
She found my heart
She found my heart
She found my heart
She found my heart
She found my...
Heart

Be That Way
02:36
|

|
And I wonder why you left me
In the backseat of my car
Was it something I said?
Was I so wrong?
To put my hand on your legs,
That was my mistake
If you're gonna be that way,
Go ahead and be that way
I saw you in the hall the other day
You looked at me, turned your back,
And walked away from me
So I told the guys that we went all the way
What was I to say?
What was I to say?
If you're gonna be that way...
I started a rumor at my school
I told the whole world that we screwed
I started a rumor at my school
All I wanted to say
All I wanted to say...
If you're gonna be that way...
It's over now
The word is out
Everybody thinks that
They know how it went down
It's over now
The word is out
Everybody thinks that
They know how it went down
Didn't want it this way
All the guys were in my face
Didn't know what to say
By the summer
It'll be over
I started a rumor at my school
I told the whole world that we screwed
I started a rumor at my school
All I wanted to say
All I wanted to say...
If you're gonna be that way...
I started a rumor
Rumor
I started a rumor

Those Days
02:36

|
Yesterday I thought about those days again
Relived the past, where have I been since then?
We were so young everything seemed so real
Skateboards, those girls, late nights driving around
I was only a kid
Hanging out with my friends
Never thought it would end
When does my life begin?
Maybe I thought we would last forever
Maybe I just lost track of time
Running through my head everything I’ve said,
Everything I’ve missed just makes me sick
Like growing up
Growing up looking back again
So many things have changed
Growing up looking back again
So many things have changed
It’s been so long
Since I’ve opened my eyes;
Never thought it would end
When does my life begin?
Growing up looking back again
So many things have changed
Growing up looking back again
So many things have changed
Growing up looking back again (I remember those days)
So many things have changed
Growing up looking back again (I remember those days)
So many things have changed
It’s been so long
Since I’ve opened my eyes;
Never thought it would end
When does my life begin?
