Lyrics
You've Done Nothing
you don't know what you want to be/ you don't know what you want to do/ never going to amount to much of anything. so what's the difference if you win or lose?/ well that's something/ well isn't that something/ you've done nothing wrong and it's never your fault/ you've done nothing/ don't care where your friends have gone because you never really needed them anyway/ never going to be exactly who you are because you try too hard to be just like them/ well that's something/ you've done nothing wrong and it's never your fault/ you've done nothing/ you've got brains in your head/ feet in your shoes/ you can steer yourself/ any way you choose/ you're on your own/ and you know what you know/ and it's up to you to decide where you'll go
I'm Not Afraid
I didn't want a second chance/ now that's exactly where I am/ back where I didn't want to be/ back where I knew you'd find me out/ I've never been afraid of you/ I never will admit the truth/ I know there's something I can do/ I'm not afraid to face myself/ but is it me or something else? makes me exactly what I am/ that's something I will always doubt
Disconnected
you don't know a thing about me/ is there something you should know?/ I can tell you what you want to hear/ let your inhibitions just go/ no you don't know what you will give up/ you don't know what you want/ it may take you years to find out/ you don't know what you need/ it's something that may never come to you/ trust is something that comes easy/ when you've never been a victim/ lies and promises and words are said/ it's you're decision to accept them
No Authority
there is someone who knows everything there is to know/ there is someone who is too afraid to let it show/ we live by consequences/ we never seem to get it right/ conflict of circumstances/ and sometimes we may lose a fight/ wouldn't you know/ something is going wrong/ wouldn't you know/ something is really wrong/ no you have no authority/ no I am who I want to be/ there are those of us who just sit back ans never try/ there are those of us who just sit back and wonder why/ we live by consequences/ we never seem to get it right/ conflict of circumstances/ and sometimes we may lose a fight
I Want
everybody wants the truth/ but everybody lies/ everybody wants some proof/ but everybody's blind/ so open up your eyes/ I really don't know much of anything at all/ but I'll admit we're all the same/ you ask forgiveness and you make the same mistakes/ and I'll admit we're all the same/ I want to know/ do these words mean anything?/ how can this life mean more than what it seems?/ everybody wants equality/ but we're all prejudice/ we're all hypocrites/ everybody wants the world/ but we have nothing
You've Got a Problem
so what's the problem this time?/ I thought you'd learn by now that nothing ever works out right/ you want to take away the edge/ you tell me it's the only thing that helps you forget/ you've made your promises/ that's not enough this time/ there's only so much you can squander from a feeble mind/ you've got a problem with your life/ you've got a problem with your mind/ don't try to tell me that you think it's going to work out fine/ so go ahead and try to hide/ the world around you watches on as you destroy you life/ do what your problem says/ there's not a lot of time/ there's only so much you can squander from a feeble mind/ you've got a problem with your life
Everything is Everything
we've got a lot of questions/ we've got a lot to learn/ so tired of solving problems/ too many bridges burned/ we see it all so clearly and still we close our eyes/ why should we understand it?/ what good is knowing why?/ I know that life can be filled with these changes/ I know there's times when it feels like I'm falling/ I know something in my life will change again/ now I've got a lot of questions/ I've got a lot to learn/ I'm tired of solving problems/ too many bridges burned/ I can't change what's in the past/ I want to move ahead/ I want to understand it/ give me the reason why/ I'm tired of running these circles in my life/ I've seen the future it changes before my eyes and I know that there is something that's going to change in my life/ I know my life will change again
I'm Trying
four year old at play/ shot and killed today/ never even had a chance/ seventeen and high/ threw away his life/ has a gun to feel like he's a man / can't have it any other way/ laying in the street/ asking for a drink/ doesn't have a place to live/ pregnant at thirteen/ still can hear the screams/ something that she never will forget/ can't have it any other way/ I'm trying to open my mind/ so you can keep your faith/ and I'll just walk away/ there's no reason for me to stay/ I'm trying to open my mind/ I'm trying to make up my mind
Pastel
another falls in place/ you wonder if you're only human/ it's blood, dust, and paste/ we're held together by a single thread/ must be a reason for us to justify it/ but no one will defy it/ what is it with this place?/ or is it that I'm missing something?/ you want to see my face/ when I can't even see it for myself/ I don't want a game that I don't no how to play/ just go away/ and I don't want to know how to play/ can't I make it just go away?/ don't you understand what these problems will demand?/ make it just go wasy/ I don't want a game that I don't know how to play/ just go away
Nothing New
there is nothing new/ put in front of you/ nothing you don't understand/ don't try to rationalize/ no one hears your lies/ only you can comprehend/ you don't want to see/ you don't want to hear/ you don't want to feel at all/ tell me that you've tries/ mind is open wide/ but you're not listening at all/ please don't question me I don't have the time/ if there's a problem that it's easier to set aside/ there is nothing that will make you want to change your mind/ you can't take it/ you can't make it/ you can't make it so why try?
Walk Away
don't want to hear what you said/ don't want to kick in your head/ don't want to live my life that way/ don't want to give in but I don't want to be victimized/ don't want to know anything/ don't want to live my life that way/ walk away/ try to see things in a different way/ don't want to tell you your place/ don't want to get in your face/ don't want to live my life that way/ don't want to know what you think/ don't want to know anything/ don't want to live my life that way/ walk away/ try to see things in a different way
Do You Care
do you want to make a difference?/ do you wonder what would happen if you don't?/ do you need just a little push?/ do you try to change?/ do you about the other guy?/ do you want just one good reason why you should?/ do you only think about yourself?/ do you want to be left alone?/ you're running out of time/ and I don't see a change in you/ and I don't think you're gonna make it/ do you understand the way it works?/ do you want to take as much as you can get?/ do you need a little push?/ do you try to change?/ we're running out of time and there aren't many changes made/ and I don't think were going to make it
1,000 X
/I've tried to ask the question/ must be a million answers that just aren't there/ you try to find yourself/ I'll try to live my life/ I just don't care/ take a look at your life/ tell me can you say you've done no wrong?/ ask yourself the question/ do you realize where you belong?/ I've been down/ I've been out/ I've been there/ I've been down this road a thousand times/ nothing ever looks the same/ it seems there's something more I might never see
Resignation
you can't be right/ you're full of prejudice and spite/ you think you've got me pegged but you're wrong/ out of my way/ there is a consequence to pay/ you think you've got me pegged but you're wrong/ I am someone who'll burn the whole world down/ I'm the one to bring it right around/ you're giving up on me/ but what else have you got/ your losing sight/ I won't give up without a fight/ you think you've got me pegged but you're wrong/ I'm not afraid/ I'll take any chance I have to take/ you think you've got me pegged but you're wrong/ you can't expect the world to bend to you/ you only feed the fire of anger and disbelief/ I can't be everything to everyone/ and I can't be everything you think that I should be
Walk the Walk
I could be like you/ I could be alone and shaded/ wondering what to do until they say/ I could be like you/ angry and intoxicated/ wondering what to do to make them pay/ and will I find a way/ can I make them see/ and make them all believe you're wrong/ your intentions don't belong/ I hear you talk the talk/ but I don't see you walk the walk/ and I still don't believe a thing you say
Blind
what if I'm right and your wrong/ what if you knew it all along/ what if I figured out that I did not belong/ what if it always bothered me?/what if I never did believe?/ would it be wrong if I decided I should leave?/ if I pretend I was blind/ and struck it from my mind/ would it still be there?/ what if I'd do anything to make it seem all right/ it's all right/ what if it's all inside my head?/ what if those words were never said?/ would it be easier if I just forgot?/ what if I didn't run away?/ could it be any other way?/ would it be wrong if I decide I should stay?
Ordinary
now you've made it up it's all inside your mind/ now you've given up/ you don't know what's there if you don't try/ so you've given in along with all of your friends/ and you're still alone/ the means doesn't always justify the end/ ordinary, ordinary/ a look in the mirror is not enough/ what makes you think that you're not one of us?/ if you make it up and start to use your mind/ it isn't difficult/ you don't know what's there if you don't try
I Won't Lie Down
does anybody see him?/ another set up for the fall/ does anybody hear him?/ he's screaming at the same blank wall/ everyone can't be right/ but everyone will decide/ I'm not afraid of the price I pay/ I won't lie down as you walk away/ I know you must have seen him/ I'm sure you must have heard it all/ I know you used to be him/ did anybody care at all?
You Can't Change the World
people say that it's impossible to fly/ but you don't know what I'm thinking/ don't you want to be just like the other hundred guys/ yeah you don't know what I'm thinking/ can't change the world?/ can't change the world?/ you say it's crumbling all around you/ and you're trying to get out/ people say that out of sight is out of mind/ but you don't know what I'm thinking/ don't want to listen to the ignorance and lies/ yeah you don't know what I'm thinking/ and isn't it ironic sometimes?/ the things we take for granted are what we wanted/ before we knew why/ and isn't it the reason we try?/ to make the excuse that it won't go the right way/ before it's gone
Handout
what's it going to take to be done?/ what's it going to be right or wrong?/ I don't have the strength left to fight/ I don't have to make up my mind/ I know you're never wrong/ no matter what it takes/ I know you're not the one/ but we all make mistakes/ help me out/ I don't want your handout/ I don't need your way out/ so what's it going to be/ I've done everything/ why don't you believe?/ your're the same as me
Everything's Your Fault
have you heard them talk about it?/ you say they're wrong but they know all about it/ have you tried another story?/ we're tired of all the lies and allegories/ every single thing's your fault/ there you are not really jaded/ you've learned to live with being underrated/ but they don't know just what you're made of/ because of them who knows how you will end up?/ with you it's always something/ when everyone's the same/ don't you try to blame me
Take It Back
I won/ I worked too hard to get it/ so what?/ it's over just forget it/ too much, too soon/ too late until you realize/ you've got it made?/ you're in for a big surprise/ that's not what I want at all/ that's not what I wanted/ can I take it back?/ can I take it back?/ I'm asking/ it's gone/ and I don't want to fake it/ it's wrong/ I've become the one I hated
Complicated
You're never going to see what you like/ you're never going to wake up and change your mind/ you're never going to keep what you hold/you won't accomplish anything on your own/ you can't have what you wanted/ so make up your mind and come to your senses/ you'll never win if you don't bend/ it's not so complicated/ if you decide to change your mind/ you'll find your inundated/ you're never going to do what you say/ you'll always try to make up another way/ you're never going to act on your own/ you're never going to see that you're all alone/ and so you're here and you don't know/ if you can choose the way to go/ it's not about the way it is/ so don't become a realist/ you've got time to make a choice/ don't think aloud but have a voice/ and when you think the time is right/ don't ever be afraid to fight
Put You In Your Place
what was that you said to me?/ I'm not exactly
sure I heard you right/ what is it you want from me?/ I'm not exactly sure
I will comply/ you think you've got me where you want/ you think you're
better but you're not/ I don't mean anything to you/ why?/ don't make me
put you in your place/ you don't think I'd let you make a fool of me/ don't
make me put you in your place/ you don't think I'd let you make a fool
of me/ what do you expect from me?/ are you really looking for a fight?/
what do you expect to see?/ for me to lose control, I think I might
Falling
it's really easy if you try/ to tell another hundred lies/ but I'm not going this time/ just when you think I'm over it/ it's getting easy to forget/ I haven't even faced it yet/ I never wanted anyone to be so wrong for you/ stop falling down/ I don't have anyone to blame/ I can't make anybody change/ I guess there's nothing more to say/ I won't believe it if you say that you will change/ I won't release you from responsibility/ I never wanted to come down on you this way
Struggle
There was a hint of danger/ they told him it's OK/ there was a chance of failure/ they told him it's alright/ a false security driven by a / weakened state of mind/ it's calling and calling/ he had a big decision/ they told him it's OK/ bound by his inhibitions/ they told him it's alright/ time for reality/ time to gain control of his own life/ it's calling and calling/ do you know what is wrong?/ try to keep it in line/ you can't go back/ there must be something/ he tried/ once was not enough/ they told him it's alright/ he tried// wasn't good enough/ that doesn't make it right
I Know You Well
try not to try/ try not to care/ it's really easy once you learn/ that no one is listening/ try not to give/ try not to help/ you'll do much better for yourself/ because nothing else matters/ I know you well by now/ you're that good person/ don't be afraid/ don't be naive/ you think you're better than me/ well you're sadly mistaken/ I know you well by now/ you're that good person/ it's all the same inside our minds/ everything is justified/ what is wrong and what is right?/ everything is justified
Sensible
someone tell me that I'm wrong/ someone tell me that I'm right/ someone tell me where I'm going/ I guess it's safe to say/ I don't know what I want/ but I can't wait forever/ it isn't difficult at all/ I don't know what I want/ but I can't wait forever/ it isn't difficult at all/ it makes no sense to me/ someone tell me that I'm black/ someone tell me that I'm white/ someone tell me that it's going/ to make a difference/ I don't know what I want/ but I can't wait forever/ it isn't difficult at all/ it makes no sense to me
A-OK
you think that I'm invincible/ it's going to pull me down / you think that I'm invincible/ I'm going to pull me down/ to somewhere I didn't want to go/ it's OK/ you think I'm indestructible/ it's going to pull me down/ you think that I'm a miracle/ it's going to pull me down/ to somewhere I don't want to go/ it's OK/ I don't know what you want from me/ but it's probably already gone/ I don't care what you think of me/ your opinion means nothing at all/ don't say I'm OK/ I'm not OK
You Lied
there's nothing hear/ inside of these walls/ I
feel like I am so far away/ nothing's changed/ and I just can't be who
I'm supposed to be/ I let the past control my life/ it brings me to my
knees/ and I can not hide/ I can not lie/ so many words to say and no one
to hear/ why did you go away?/ I needed you more to day than I ever did/
you lied to me/ outside it's cold/ it chills to the bone/ I wish that I
did not have to see/ I let the past control my life/ it brings me to my
knees/ and I can not hide/ I can not lie/ so many words to say and no one
to hear/ why did you go away?/ I needed you more today than I ever did/
you lied to me
Promises
/what's the matter with my view?/ is it something less/ than you think it should be?/ what's the matter with the truth?/ is there any of it left for us to see?/ that's not the way it is supposed to be/ that's not the meaning of equality/ I don't want promises/ I don't want condescending words/ from you/ you can do most anything/ as long as it's exactly how I say/ opportunity is free/ just make sure that/ you have enough to pay/ so go on turn and walk away/ I guess there's nothing left to say/ I won't make the same mistakes/ can't have it any other way/ I see no honesty in promises you make/ we've been too tolerant/ and something has to change
Big Choice
big lies/ surprise/ you've thought of everything/ it builds your character you know/ no way / ok/ so what's the price you pay?/ too late to realize you're broke/ do you think that everything worked out?/ it's good to see you've finally made it/ can't you see you're lying to yourself?/ but this was all your choice/ do you think it makes a difference now?/ but this was all your choice/ it's good to see it hasn't changed you/ you've tried/ denied/ can't win at everything/ it's building character you know/ don't wait/ too late/ you've got a choice to make/ it's time to be what you've been told
It's Not Over
you think you're over with it/ don't want to talk
about it/ I'll tell you something/ you don't want to know/ so what's the
problem with my life?/ don't over complicate it/ let's stop with all this
wasting time/ I feel you all around/ there's nothing else that I can see/
anything is better than nothing/ I'll try and try/ I won't be denied/ I
want my chance/ I want what's mine
Velocity
tell me something/ that I don't already know/ tell me how you plan to save the world/ I'm tired of people trying/ to tell me what is right/ I'm tired of people trying to show me how/ I know that you might never understand/ the way I feel/ I made a promise to myself/ that I would never let it show/ never look down/ never look down/ just keep my focus straight ahead/ and try to walk this line/ tell me all about your favorite human being/ tell me everything about yourself/ God, the story is so terribly interesting/ I wonder what's so good about myself/ so let me take a good look at your perfect life/ so I know exactly how I don't want mine/ everyday I see these/ same four walls that keep me here/ and I want to change the things that hurt/ I want to end this constant fear/ never look down/ never look down/ keep my focus straight ahead/ and try to walk this line
Debt
/ I don't owe you anything/ what now?/ not again/ you're a person I will never/ comprehend/ I've listened/ I've tried/ I can't change enough/ to make you change your mind/ I don't owe you anything
Late
I don't know where I belong/ all I know is that I'm wrong/ I can't wait another day/ make it all just go away/ I don't want it today/ I don't want to be late/ if you knew what I knew/ you wouldn't be willing to wait/ don't be fooled by what you read/ it's not the same as what you see/ you're trying to sell me/ I and it's something for nothing/ don't want to be late
Bikeage
Running out of time again/ Where did you go wrong
this time?/ When your problems overwhelm you/ Go get drunk it's party time/
Take a quaalude, relax your mind/ Relax your body too!/ Run from problems
but/ You'll never get away/ No one loves you, and you/ Wonder why?/ Sitting
there with your mouth full of beer/ Your eyes are glazed, your face is
red/ Who's gonna pick you up and use you for tonight?/ And when you're
on the streets/ With a needle in your arm/ Selling your body for another
fix/ Who's gonna pick you up and take you home with them tonight? Not me!/
Running out of breath again you're an Old Maid, but you're only 15/ You're
losing your little girl's charm/ Cry all night but you'll never get it
back/ Don't be afraid, it's not too late/ Save yourself, I need you here/
Wearing off, wearing out/ I can't think about this cause it makes me sick.
