Our Lady Peace Album

A suburban man at my door
But I don't think I'll let him in
He wants discipline
Discipline, control over the way I live
Wants the best for me
Old school philosophy
But I can't turn my back on him
He's a part of me
Buy me anything but I just need a friend
It's all for you
You got me where you want
It's all for you, oh
Just stop breaking my heart
You're the blood of a seed and its all that I need
Got me where you want
It's all for you, oh
You got me, oh, you got me
Jack Kerouac K-K-K-Kerouac
On the road and in my head
And the irrelevance, intelligence
A new tattoo a lot more sex
Broken families
A new enemy
And you will not make up for this
This suburban man he wants discipline
But I just need a friend
It's all for you
You got me where you want
It's all for you
Just stop breaking my heart
You're the blood of a seed and its all that I need
Got me where you want
It's all for you
You got me, oh, you got me where you want
Leave me alone
Oh, leave me alone
So never run
You got me where you want
All for you, stop breaking my heart
Youuuuuuuuuu
You got me where you want
Its all for you, oh
Stop breaking my, stop breaking my heart
You're the blood of a seed and its that I need
Got me where you want
Its all for you, oh
Cause you got me, oh, you got me where you want
It's all for you
Oh Just stop breaking my, stop breaking my heart
It's all for you, oh
Got me, got me where you want
It's all for you
My heart
It's all for you, oh
You got me oh, you got me where you want

I crawled out from the pain of yesterday
I crawled to you and
I said all the things that you said to say
Have I said enough
Do you like it yeah e yeah
Do you like it yeah e yeah
I know why you're playin' these dirty games
They're killing me and
I know how you love to watch me beg
Well here I am
Do you like it yeah e yeah
And do you like it yeah e yeah
And do you like it yeah e yeah, yeah e yeah, yeah e yeah
I don't wanna be a puppet for you
Don't wanna bite the hand that's feeding
I don't wanna be a sucker for you, oh yes you
I hate myself for begging
I hate myself for staying
I hate myself for listening to,
You, you, you, you, you
It's too little too late
Well I can't escape
So beggin' you please
I changed all the things that you told me to change
I'm on my knees
Do you like it yeah e yeah
And do you like it yeah e yeah
And do you like it yeah e yeah, yeah e yeah, yeah e yeah
I don't wanna be a puppet for you
Don't wanna bite the hand that's feeding
I don't wanna be a sucker for you, ah yes you
I hate myself for begging
I hate myself for staying
I hate myself for listening to you
I just wanna get out
Stuck inside of this
Waiting for something else
Waiting to exist
Can you offer me help
Help from what I missed, I missed, I
Do you like it yeah e yeah
Do you like it yeah e yeah
Do you like it yeah e yeah, yeah e yeah, yeah e yeah
I don't wanna be a puppet for you
Don't wanna bite the hand that's feeding
I don't wanna be a sucker for you, ah yes you
I hate myself for begging
I hate myself for staying
I hate myself for listening to you oh I
For listening to you oh I
For listening to you oh I

Last time I talked to you,
you were lonely and out of place.

You were looking down on me,
lost out in space.

Laid underneath the stars,
strung out and feeling brave.

Watch the riddles glow,
watch them float away.

Down here in the atmosphere,
garbage and city lights,
you gotta save your tired soul,
you gotta save our lives.

Turn on the radio,
to find you on sattellite,
I'm waiting for the sky to fall,
I'm waiting for a sign.

All we are is all so far.

You're falling back to me,
the star that I can't see.
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling out of reach,
defying gravity,
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

Hope you remember me,
when you're homesick and need a change.
I miss your purple hair,
I miss the way you taste.

I know you'll come back someday,
on a bed of nails awake.
I'm praying that you don't burn out,
or fade away.

All we are is all so far

You're falling back to me,
the star that I can't see.
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling out of reach,
defying gravity,
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling back to me,
the star that I can't see.
I know you're out there, oh.
You're falling out of reach,
defying gravity....

I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling back to me,
the star that I can't see.
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling out of reach,
defying gravity,
I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

You're falling back to me.

Well I know,
I know.

You're falling out of reach.

I know...

Oh, Johnny wishes he was famous
Spends his time alone in the basement
With Lennon and Cobain and
A guitar and a stereo
And while he wishes he could escape this
But it all seems so contagious
Not to be yourself and faceless
And a song that has no soul
I remember feeling low
I remember losing hope
And I remember all the feelings and the day they stopped
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
Tina's losing faith in what she knows
Hates her music
Hates all of her clothes
Thinks of surgery and a new nose
Every calorie is a war
And while she wishes she was a dancer
And that she'd never heard of cancer
She wishes God would give her some answers
And make her feel beautiful
I remember feeling low
I remember losing hope
I remember all the feelings and the day they stopped
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
One day, you'll have to let it go
You'll have to let it go
No...
One day, you'll stand up on your own
You'll stand up on your own
Remember losing hope
Remember feeling low
Remember all the feelings and the day they stopped
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent
We are, we are...
We are (one day), we are all innocent
We are all innocent (you'll have to let it go)
We are, we are (you'll have to let it go, no..)
We are (one day), we are all innocent
We are, we are (you'll stand up on your own)
We are, we are all innocent (you'll stand up on your own..)

I can be anything that you want me to be
A punching bag, a piece of string, oh
That reminds you not to think
I found the note down in your car
And its not your fault it gets this hard
Gets this hard
Hold your head high
Don't look down
I'm by your side
Won't back down
You wanted a hero tonight
Well I'm not made of steel
I'm not made of steel
But your secrets safe with me
I can be anything that you want me to be
A holy cross, some sympathy, oh
That reminds you not to bleed
I found the note down in your car
And you climbed up here to fall apart
Fall apart
Hold your head high
Don't look down
I'm by your side
Won't back down
You wanted a hero tonight
Well I'm not made of steel
I'm not made of steel
But your secrets safe with me
No...
Your secrets safe with me
They knock you down
I'll pick you up...
They laugh at you
I'll shut them up
But I'm not made of steel
But I'm not made of steel
But I'm not made of steel
But your secrets safe with me
Yeah
Your secrets safe with me
But yeah
Hold your head high
Don't look down
I'm by your side
Won't back down

How do you feel
How do you hate
How do you wake up with the smile that's on your face
Out on the moon
If I was an astronaut could I get back to you?
I'm out of my head
I'm out of excuses so I'm staring at the bed
And it's you
It's you...
I hold on, I hold on
(I can't let go)
And you don't know how I feel
Hold on, I hold on
(I'd sell my soul)
And you don't know how I feel
Losing my heart
Losing my pride
I'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine
I need a fresh start
I was in heaven until this one fell apart
Out on the run
Out on this empty space since all of this begun
I try
I try...
I hold on, I hold on
(I can't let go)
And you don't know how I feel
Hold on, I hold on
(I'd sell my soul)
And you don't know how I feel
Hold on, hold on
(I can't let go...)
And you don't how I feel
And nothing seems to help
And nothing seems to work
And nothing isn't beautiful
I'm old enough to take all the blame for all of us
There's all the games and all the faces
I'm bleeding by myself and I'm okay...
Hold on, I hold on
(I can't let go)
And you don't know how I feel
Hold on, I hold on
(I'd sell my soul)
And you don't know how I feel
Hold on, I hold on
(I can't let go)
And you don't know how I feel
I hold on
(I can't let go...)

There's nothing you can say
Nothing you can do
There's nothing in between
You know the truth
Nothing left to face
There's nothing left to lose
Nothing takes your place
When they say
You're not that strong
You're not that weak
It's not your fault
And when you climb up to your hill
Up to your place
I hope you're well
There's nothing left to prove
There's nothing I won't do
There's nothing like the pain
I feel for you
Nothing left to hide
Nothing left to feel
I am always here
When they say
You're not that strong
You're not that weak
It's not your fault
And when you climb up to your hill
Up to your place
I hope you're well
What you want
What you lost
What you had
What is gone is over
What you got
What you love
What you need
What you have is real
It's not enough
It's not enough
It's not enough
It's not enough, I'm sorry
It's not enough
It's not enough
It's not enough
It's not enough...
When they say
You're not that strong
You're not that weak
It's not your fault
And when you climb up to your hill
Up to your place
I hope you're well
It's not enough
No
It's not enough

Today's a reason for living
Today's the blood from a stone
Today's a light from a candle
Helping us to find our way home
Today we carry each other
Today the pastor's a freak
Today's a time for forgiveness
You were never that good to me
(Welcome to this world)
I'm sorry, I can't lie
I've wasted too much time
Drowning I've been blind
But I've opened up my eyes
Sorry, I can't lie
So I just say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Yeah
Today's tasting the honey
Today's the strike of a match
And today's the lines in the pavement
Helping us to find our way back
Today's the crosses we carry
Today's the strength that we need
And today's the hand of an angel
You were not the kind to believe
(Welcome to this world)
I'm sorry, I can't lie
I've wasted too much time
Drowning I've been blind
But I've opened up my eyes
Sorry, I can't lie
So I just say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Yeah
Oh what a day, oh what a day, oh my God
Oh what a day, oh what a day, oh my God
Oh what a day, oh what a day, oh my God
And oh my God, and oh my God, yeah
Today we carry each other
Today we do what we should
Today's a time for forgiving
Today I wish I could...
I'm sorry, I can't lie
I've wasted too much time
Drowning, I've been blind
But I've opened up my eyes
Sorry, I can't lie
So I just say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Another bye, goodbye, goodbye
Another bye, goodbye, goodbye, yeah
Another bye, goodbye, goodbye

Little white house
It's everything we dream about
We wanted you to know
I'm hanging up my e-go...
We shouldn't have to fight
Or worry about the bills tonight
I wanted you to know
I wanna be your shadow
Mystery's gone
So bring back the sun
Oh bury this hate
Build it with love
The mystery's gone
So bring back the sun
Oh bury this hate
Build it with love, ho oh
Little batter high
Grass wasn't greener I found
Wanted you to know
Well I dug you up a rainbow
Mystery's gone
So bring back the sun
Oh bury this hate
Build it with love
The mystery's gone
So bring back the sun
Oh bury this hate
Build it with love
(Guitar Solo)
And I know
I know I failed you
And I hope
I hope we get through
Show me your hand again
And I know
I know I failed you
And I hope
I hope we get through
Soul signed hand
Mystery's gone
So bring back the sun
Bury this hate
Build it with love
The mystery's gone
So bring back the sun
Oh bury this hate
And build it with love
The mystery is gone
The mystery is gone
The mystery's gone
The mystery is gone mmm hmmm
The mystery's gone
Bring back the sun
Bury this hate
Build it with love

(Story about a girl)
(Story about the world)
Suddenly something I'm not
You're something that you bought
Was it something I said, my friend
A little girl are you tripping on this
Are you tripping all over it
You better come up for air
Story about a girl
My
Story about the world
My
And are you waking up slowly
You're nothing but lonely
Are you waking up holding
Holding your breath
And are you looking for something
I promised you one thing
I promise I'll always
Always be
There
Baby girl, stand up and fight
This is not some paradise
Oh it's just where we live
And finally you think you're alright
And that it eats you up alive
You better get used to it
Story about a girl
My
Story about the world
My
And are you waking up slowly
You're nothing but lonely
Are you waking up holding
Holding your breath
And are you looking for something
I promised you one thing
I promise I'll always
Always be there
With all my faith
And all my heart
And all those simple things you are
I know
It's stuck inside your head
You're alone
You better get used to it
And I know
The feeling has to end
You're strong
It sucks you in again
And you're lost
You can't make any sense
This world
It tears you limb from limb
And hold on
You're nothing but the best
And are you waking up slowly
You're nothing but lonely
Are you waking up holding
Holding your breath
Are you looking for something
I promised you one thing
I promise I'll always
Always be there
With all my faith
And all my heart
And all those simple things you are
With all my faith
And all my heart
