Guess this means you're sorry
You're standing at my door
Guess this means you take back
All you said before
Like how much you wanted
Anyone but me
Said you'd never come back
But here you are again
Cuz we belong together now
Forever united here somehow
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life would suck without you
Maybe I was stupid for telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong for tryin' to pick a fight
I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Anyway, I found out I'm nothing without you
Cuz we belong together now
Forever united here somehow
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life would suck without you
Being with you is so dysfunctional
I really shouldn't miss you, but I can't let go
Oh yeah
Cuz we belong together now
Forever united here somehow
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life would suck without you

. . .


Oh sweetheart
Put the bottle down
You’ve got too much talent
I see you through those bloodshot eyes
There’s a cure you’ve found it
Slow motion
Sparks you caught that chill
Now don’t deny it
But boys will be boys
Oh yes they will
They don’t want to define it
Just give up the game and get into me
If you’re looking for thrills
Then get cold feet

Oh no
I do not hook up up
I go slow
So if you want me
I don’t come cheap
Keep your hand
In my hand
And your heart
On your sleeve
Oh no
I do not hook up up
I fall deep
Cause the more that you try
The harder I’ll fight
To say goodnight

I can’t cook no
But I can clean
Up the mess she left
Lay your head down
And feel the beat
As I kiss your forehead
This may not last but this is now
So love the one you’re with
You wanna chase
But you’re chasing your tail
A quick fix won’t ever get you well

Oh no
I do not hook up up
I go slow
So if you want me
I don’t come cheap
Keep your hand
In my hand
And your heart
On your sleeve
Oh no
I do not hook up up

I fall deep
Cause the more that you try
The harder I’ll fight
To say

Cause I feel
The distance
Between us
Could be over
With a snap
Of your fingers
Oh oh no

Oh no
I do not hook up up
I go slow
So if you want me
I don’t come cheap
Keep your hand
In my hand
And your heart
On your sleeve
Oh no
I do not hook up up
I fall deep
Cause the more that you try
The harder I’ll fight
To Say

Cause the more that you try
The harder I’ll fight
To say goodnight

Oh sweetheart
Put the bottle down
Cause you don’t wanna
Miss out

. . .


If anyone asks
I'll tell them we both just moved on
When people all stare
I'll pretend that I don't hear them talk
Whenever I see you, I'll swallow my pride and bite my tongue
Pretend I'm okay with it all
Act like there's nothing wrong

Is it over yet
Can I open my eyes?
Is this as hard as it gets
Is this what it feels like to really cry, cry

If anyone asks
I'll tell them we just grew apart
Yet what do I care
If they believe me or not
Whenever I feel your memory is breaking my heart
I'll pretend I'm okay with it all
Act like there's nothing wrong

Is it over yet
Can I open my eyes?
Is this as hard as it gets
Is this what it feels like to really cry, cry

I'm talking in circles
I'm lying, they know it
Why won't this just all go away?

Is it over yet
Can I open my eyes?
Is this as hard as it gets
Is this what it feels like to really cry, cry, cry

. . .


I used to be a little bit shy
I kept my deepest feelings inside
Speaking up to you about my emotions has always been hard
But this just can't wait
Tonight I feel a little bit brave
So I won't let one more day pass without me explaining what we are

This is gonna sound kinda silly
But I couldn't help but notice
The last time you kissed me
You kept both eyes open
Baby, can you tell me what does that mean?
If you're looking all over your shoulder
Then you don't need to be with me
And I don't need to hold on

Chorus:
Don't let me let me stop you
From doing what you wanna do
You don't wanna stay with just me it's cool
Take no chance getting over you
No no don't let me let me stop you
If you wanna leave baby you can leave
Just don't pretend that you're into me
If it ain't true no, don't let me stop you

A lot of things I can take
Gotta a high threshold for pain
But let's get one thing straight – I'm not down to share you with anyone
If that's not what you're looking for
Nice knowing you, but there's the door
Cause I know that I can find someone to give me what I want

This is gonna sound kinda silly
If you're looking over your shoulder
Then you don't need to be with me
And I don't need to hold on

Chorus:

Even if I'm in the broken hearted
I won't lie
I don't wanna hear goodbye
But either way I'll be alright

Chorus: (2x)

. . .


Tear up the photographs
But yesterday won't let go
Every day every day every minute
Here comes the emptiness
Just can't leave lonely alone
Every day every day hey hey
This second-chancin's really getting me down
You give and takin' everything I dreamed about
It's time you let me know let me know just let go

[Chorus]
All I ever wanted
All I ever wanted
Was a simple way to get over you
All I ever wanted
All I ever wanted
Was an in-between to escape this desperate scene
Where every lie reveals the truth
Baby cause I all ever wanted
All I ever wanted was you

I'd rather walk alone
Don't wanna chase you around
Every day every day every minute I thought a thousand times
For I let you drag me down
Every day every day hey hey
Your new beginning was a perfect ending
But I keep feeling we've already been here before
It's time you let me know let me know just let go

[Chorus]
Tell me with so many out there
Why I always turn to you
Your goodbyes tear me down every time
And it's so easy to see that the blame is on me

[Chorus]

. . .


Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories, they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye
Even with our fists held high
It never would've worked out right
We were never meant for do or die

I didn't want us to burn out
I didn't come here to hold you
Now I can't stop

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road
Someone's gotta go
And I want you to know
You couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on
So I'm already gone

Looking at you makes it harder
But I know that you'll find another
That doesn't always make you want to cry
Started with a perfect kiss
Then we could feel the poison set in
Perfect couldn't keep this love alive
You know that I love you so
I love you enough to let you go

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road
Someone's gotta go
And I want you to know
You couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on
So I'm already gone

I'm already gone, already gone
You can't make it feel right
When you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on
So I'm already gone

Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories, they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road
Someone's gotta go
And I want you to know
You couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on
So I'm already gone

I'm already gone, already gone
You can't make it feel right
When you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on
So I'm already gone

. . .


Hearts break too fast when they're sentimental
Won't stay won't last when it's love at first sight
So why are my convictions blinded by your spotlight

Can't breathe can't sleep with some medication
I'll kiss goodbye to my reservations
I know there's other fish out in the sea
Not for me
I want you

If I can't have you then I don't want anyone
If I can't have you then all the damage has been done baby
You can break these rules if you wanna have some fun
Think of all the love that you will lose if I can't have you

Heartbeat cold sweat thoughts slipping under
Can't fight no threat cause there's just no use
One look, no hesitation
I'm slipping into you

Forgive these eyes these lips you're tasting
No time to waste on an invitation
My shame my self control has suffered enough
Everybody wants to be loved

If I can't have you then I don't want anyone
If I can't have you then all the damage has been done baby
You can break these rules if you wanna have some fun
Think of all the love that you will lose if I can't have you

I haven't seen the best that love has had to offer
They say perfection's always right around the corner
Could be true
But if I can't have you...

If I can't have you then I don't want anyone
If I can't have you then all the damage has been done baby
You can break these rules if you wanna have some fun
Think of all the love that you will lose if I can't have you

. . .


I Can Tell
I Can Tell
How much You hate This
Deep Down Inside
You Know It's Killing Me
I Can Call, Wish You Well
And Try To Change This
But Nothing I Can Say
Would Change Anything

Where Were My Senses
I Left Them All Behind
Why Did I Turn Away

I Wish I Could Save You
I Wish I Could Say To You
I'm Not Going Nowhere
I Wish I Could Say To You
It's Gonna Be Alright
It's Gonna Be Alright

I Didn't Mean
Didn't Mean
To Leave You Stranded
Lent Away Cause I
Didn't Want To Face The Truth

Reaching Out
Reach For Me
Empty Handed
You Don't Know if I Care
You're Trying To Find The Proof

There Were Times I'd Wonder
Could I Have Eased Your Pain
Why Did I Turn Away

I Wish I Could Save You
I Wish I Could Say To You
I'm Not Going Nowhere
I Wish I Could Say To You
It's Gonna Be Alright

It's Gonna Be Alright ( Alright )
It's Gonna Be Alright (Save You)
It's Gonna Be Alright ( I Wish I Could Save You )

We Can Pretend Nothings Changed
Pretend It's All The Same
And There Will Be No Pain
Tonight...
It's Gonna Be Alright (It's Gonna be Alright)


I Wish I Could Save You
I Wish I Could Say To You
I'm Not Going Nowhere (Save You)
I Wish I Could Say To You (Say To You)
It's Gonna Be Alright

It's Gonna Be Alright( Alright )
It's Gonna Be Alright (Save You)
It's Gonna Be Alright ( I Wish I Could Save You )
It's Gonna Be Alright...

This situation
if it gets any deeper could be critical
I'm not your love monkey
So be taking back all the lies you sold
What did you want me to be
It's just too much now
So tell me, so tell me, so tell me one two three four

So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me, tell me why you wanna bring me down?
Is it too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink cause I won't be around
Tell me, so tell me, why you wanna bring me down

Now your transmission is on the negative
You're on a losing streak
This information is getting ordinary
And you're losing me
What's with your hostility
Ouhh when the lie's on me?
Well you're down to the last chance
So tell me, so tell me uno dos tres cuatro

So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me, tell me why you wanna bring me down?
Is it too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink cause I won't be around
Tell me, so tell me why you wanna bring me down

(bring me down, bring me down)

Was it all just a waste of time
I don't wanna spend my whole life thinking bout it
Baby this is where I draw the line, I think I'm done

guitar

So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me, tell me why you wanna bring me down?
Is it too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink cause I won't be around
Tell me, so tell me why you wanna bring me down

Down yeah
Why you wanna bring me down
Oh yeah
Tell me, tell me why you wanna bring me down?
Down, down, down
Why you wanna bring me down
Why you wanna, Why you wanna,
why you wanna bring me down?

. . .


I felt it
the wire touched my neck and,
then someone pulled it tighter.
I never saw it coming.
I started to black out and
then someone said "Good Morning."
I took it as a warning.
I should have seen it coming.
So now I take a chance on
this thing we may have started
intentional or not.
I don't think we saw it coming.
It's all adding up to something,
that asks for some involvement
that asks for a commitment.
I think I see it coming
if we step out on that ledge.

My heart beat, beats me senselessly.
Why's everything gotta be so intense with me.
I'm trying handle all this unpredictability,
in all probability.

It's a long shot
but I say why not.
If I say forget it.
I know that I'll regret it.
It's a long shot,
just to beat these odds.
The chance is we won't make it
but I know if I don't take it
there's no chance.
Cause you're the best I've got
to take a long shot

I realize that there is all this doubting.
Things were both scared about that
we'll never see them coming
throw caution to the wind and,
we'll see which way it's going
and it is fooling no one
we'll never see it coming,
'til it's much too close to stop.

My heart beat, beats me senselessly,
Why's everything gotta be so intense with me.
I'm trying handle all this unpredictability
it all probability.

It's a long shot
but I say why not.
If I say forget it,
I know that I'll regret it.
It's a long shot,
just to beat these odds.
The chance is we won't make it,
but I know if I dont take it,
there's no chance
cause you're the best I've got
to take a long shot.

Oh I waited
for fact to become a fiction
and you fit my description
I never saw you coming
but we'll make it.

It's a long shot,
but I say why not.
If I say forget it,
I know that I'll regret it.
It's a long shot
just to beat these odds
the chance is we won't make it
but I know if I don't take it,
there's no chance,
no chance, no chance
cause you're the best I've got.

It's a long shot,
but i say why not.
If I say forget it
I know that I'll regret it.
It's a long shot,
just to beat these odds.
The chance is we won't make it,
but i know if i don't take it.

It's a long shot,
but i say why not.
If I say forget it
I know that I'll regret it.
It's a long shot,
just to beat these odds.
The chance is we won't make it,
but i know if i don't take it.

It's a long shot,
but i say why not.
If I say forget it
I know that I'll regret it

. . .


Just woke up and thought I'd try
Try to step across the line
You know that I've been thinking about it for a while, yeah
Starting to think it's time I leave
Does me good to know I finally feel
I feel this pain, it's real, it's possible

You say
Can't change the wind to say
Won't matter anyway
Can't reach that far 'cause it's impossible
Can't rise above this place
Won't change your mind, so I pray
Breaking the walls down to the impossible

Walking by myself, I know
This lonely road's becoming my new home
But I don't stop, I just keep moving on and on
Ain't no need to dry my eyes
I haven't cried in quite some time
Every day I fight it, you know it's possible

You say
Can't change the wind to say
Won't matter anyway
Can't reach that far 'cause it's impossible
Can't rise above this place
Won't change your mind, so I pray
Breaking the walls down to the impossible

Can someone tell me why it's so hard taking chances
You draw the line and think that I won't ask for more
I will stumble and I'll make my own mistakes, yeah
But I won't worry about it anymore
It's impossible

You say
Can't change the wind to say
Won't matter anyway
Can't reach that far 'cause it's impossible
Can't rise above this place
Won't change your mind, so I pray
Breaking the walls down to the impossible

It's impossible to you, not impossible for me
Not impossible for me
Can't rise above this place
Won't change your mind, so I pray
Breaking the walls down to the impossible

Just woke up and thought I'd try
Try to step across the line

. . .


Frozen, forgetful again
The part where I lose my head
The scene where I'm supposed to speak
But instead

I sit and listen again
I'm stuck with these cards
I guess

Leaping from this cliff in my thoughts
I fly like the stones in my heart
Drowning in doubt
For what reason

I sit, so patiently
Drenched in all of this shit
I can't escape

I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Come get me

Fearless with cape in hand
Conquer what I need to to mend
Little girls get so broken

I sit, so patiently
Drenched in all of this shit
I can't see no escape

I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Ohhh
I'm ready now
Come get me

. . .


Hot temper with the shortest fuse
You're such a mess with an attitude
You working hard but you're paying more
You never talk cause you don't have to
You got a job but you hate the man
Who takes it all like Uncle Sam

I want you you you you you you you
I I I I I I I want you

Out of gas so you walk for miles
To pick me up in your worn out shoes
You never said or never take too much
You count on me just like I count on you
Kiss me like when I first saw you
Figured out couldn't be without you

You you you you you you you
I I I I I I I want you
I want you you you you you you you
I I I I I I I want you

No one else will do
I want
No one makes me smile
I want
No one gets me how
I want
No one else is you you you

I want you you you you you you you
I I I I I I I want you
I want you you you you you you you
I I I I I I I want you

You're so hot tempered with the shortest fuse
You're such a mess with an attitude

You you you you you you you
I I I I I I I want you
I want you you you you you you you
I I I I I I I want I want I want I want

No one else will do
I want
No one makes me smile
I want
No one gets me how
I want
No one else is you you you

I want you you you you you you you
I I I I I I I want you
I want you you you you you you you
I I I I I I I want you
I I want you

You and me walking together
Screwing up for worse or for better

You you you you you you you
I I I I I I I want you

. . .


Maybe no one told you there is strength in your tears
And so you fight to keep from pouring out
But what if you unlock the gate that keeps your secret soul
Do you think that there's enough you might drown?

If no one will listen
If you decide to speak
If no one's left standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you
For what you really are
I will be here still
I will be here still

No one can take you where you alone must go
There's no telling what you will find there
And, God, I know the fear that eats away at your bones
It's screaming every step, "Just stay here?

If no one will listen
If you decide to speak
If no one's left standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you
For what you really are
I will be here still

If you find your fists are raw and red from beating yourself down
If your legs have given out under the weight
If you find you've been settling for a world of gray
So you wouldn't have to face down your own hate

If no one will listen
If you decide to speak
If no one's left standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you
For what you really are
I will be here still

If no one will listen
If you decide to speak
If no one's left standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you
For what you really are
I will be here still
I will be here still

. . .


Never saw 'I love you' as a trend
'Cause I don't really work like that
I mean what I say when it leaves my lips, oh

Nothin' you could say would change my heart
'Cause I don't really love like that
If you'd only let me in I'd show ya but I'm tired of workin' so hard

You keep pushin' me away
Tearin' down your walls is forcing me to break
Don't know what to say, will you ever let me in?

It's hard for me to pretend
So tell me what you wanna do?
Tell me is there any other way?

'Cause goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Tell me there's a reason to stay 'cause I'm about to get up and run
Better think about the words you say
If you don't wanna end up alone

Tell me is there any room for me?
'Cause when it's all said and done babe, I'm tired of singin'
Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Goodbye's on the tip of my

Never confuse me with where you've been
'Cause I don't really work like that
If I'm holdin' you then I'm all in, in

I know you're scared, yeah you've been burned
But I won't ever hurt you like that
If you'd take a chance I'm not like them, them, them

Give and get nothin' in return
You don't seem to care, you're not the only one who hurts
Tell me is there any other way

'Cause goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Tell me there's a reason to stay 'cause I'm about to get up and run
Better think about the words you say
If you don't wanna end up alone

Tell me is there any room for me?
'Cause when it's all said and done babe, I'm tired of singin'
Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Goodbye's on the tip of my

Why you gotta pull away? Pull away and leave me hangin'
Why you gotta make me say?
Don't make me say what you've been thinkin' all along

Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
I'm about to get up and run

'Cause goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Tell me there's a reason to stay 'cause I'm about to get up and run
Better think about the words you say
If you don't wanna end up alone

Tell me is there any room for me?
'Cause when it's all said and done babe, I'm tired of singin'
Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Goodbye's on the tip of my tongue
Goodbye's on the tip of my

. . .


Let's go

What happened to the man who used to take me
Straight into misery?
I want you back and now I must admit it shames me
How could this be?

Tell me what's this desperation
'Cause I don't recognize this change
I think I made a bad mistake

'Cause once I ran away, I loved you since the day
The day I broke your heart, it's more than I could take
I loved you since the day, the day we fell apart

Now everything is coming undone
'Cause you were the chance I can't afford to waste
I loved you since the day, the day we fell apart

I must admit the grass looks so much greener
On the other side
Since you left I notice now I'm so much meaner
And it's something I think I like

Tell me what's this desperation?
'Cause I don't recognize this change
I think I made a bad mistake

'Cause once I ran away, I loved you since the day
The day I broke your heart, it's more than I could take
I loved you since the day, the day we fell apart

Now everything is coming undone
'Cause you were the chance I can't afford to waste
I loved you since the day, the day we fell apart

I made a bad mistake, used to pay for your sins
Drowning you one more time and mend my wicked ways

'Cause once I ran away, I loved you since the day
The day I broke your heart, it's more than I could take
I loved you since the day, the day we fell apart

Now everything is coming undone
'Cause you were the chance I can't afford to waste
I loved you since the day, the day we fell apart
The day we fell apart

. . .


You're complicating things
I need some room to breathe
I gotta get back to simplicity
If you want more than this
Then tell me what it is I gotta do
Oh, this is killin' me

I need you to see
That something's gotta change

Can we go back to the way we used to be?
Back to the butterflies
Starin deep in your eyes
Can we go back to how we used to be
When livin' and lovin' was easy
We gotta find a way to fool reality
Can we go back to the way we used to be?

When did we mess it up
What happened to love
We had it good, but it wasnt enough
We shouldnt let it fade all the way
Were over-thinkin' this way too much

I want you next to me
But somethins gotta change

Can we go back to the way we used to be?
Back to the butterflies
Starin' deep in your eyes
Can we go back to how we used to be?
When livin and lovin was easy
We gotta find a way to fool reality
Can we go back to the way we used to be?

(Can we go back?)
(Can we go back to the way we used to be?)
(Can we go back?)

Oh, I'm getting tired of the fight
We can't pretend that it's alright
I'm slowly losing hope
Baby can we try

Can we go back to the way we used to be
Back to the butterflies
Starin deep in your eyes
Can we go back to how we used to be
When livin and lovin was easy

We gotta find a way to fool reality
(Can we go back?)
We gotta find a way to fool reality
(Can we go back?)
We gotta find a way to fool reality
Can we go back to the way we used to be?
