One year later met with death
miles goodbyes.
states cities friends
all converted into time
yet on the road from family and
home it feels like
it just feels right
show to show we saw
the crowds grow
we played our hearts out
we wore our thoats down
and every drop of sweat
that we blead had been worth it
cause we earned it
well weather rain
the sleet the snow
and oceans just to get
through to you
. . .

Eyes closed
And starting to whisper, i speak slow
Dont wanna give you up, ive given up lately
I wish you joy, success and happiness
A better life, it shouldnt lose sense of you
Im setting up to be the better
When you lost the right to think what you do
Breathe in, breathe out
Give it up, you'll never live this down
Last call, lost cause, who's counting
Last call, lost cause, who's counting now
Once numb, you're conscience comes crashing
Oh keep strong
Take time to find yourself
Until then, I'll be waiting on you to come around
And you will
Breathe in, breathe out
Give it up, you'll never live this down
Last call, lost cause, who's counting now
Crashes to crashes, thats what it feels like
Crashes to crashes, i'll be waiting on you to come around
Crashes to crashes, thats what it feels like
Crashes to crashes
Breathe in, breathe out
Live it up, you'll never live this down
This is the last call
Breathe in, breathe out
Give it up, you'll never live this down
Last call, lost cause, whos counting
Last call, lost cause, who's counting now
Breathe in, breathe it out
Give it up, you'll never live this down
Last call, lost cause, whos counting
Last call, lost cause, who's counting now

I've been thinking, let get out of this party yeah let's flee
These kids never meant much to me
I'll get this started, first shot is the hardest to deal with
So let's sober up on the drive home
Let's go some place where the cops will leave us alone
And we'll stay out all night
'Cause rest is for the dead
So we won't stop, no we won't stop
Raise your glass high
And let's throw out a toast to the road, where ever we go
We'll hold friends close and never want to go home
I've been hearing you've been talking to my man all wrong
Giving us looks all night long
Get your coat, time to go, hit the road
You can find us hiding in headstones
So let's sober up on the drive home
Let's go some place where the cops will leave us alone
'Cause tonight is like you and I
Stay out all night
'Cause rest is for the dead
So we won't stop, no we won't stop
Raise your glass high
And let's throw out a toast to the road, where ever we go
We'll hold friends close and never want to go home
Let's break the bottles in well lit parking lots
I know it's not much but it's all I've got
We'll break the bottles in well lit parking lots
I know it's not much but it's all we've got

Drop the girl, she’s not worth the time
She’s wasted on her back dragging other boys into her lies
You know she’s no good for you
She'd sink lower than a body in the Hudson could ever do
Drop the girl, she's only gunning for your heart
She’s sure to leave you broke and bleeding
Cause she’s all about trying to figure out the breakdown
Whoa…
And you know she’ll turn her back on you,
She covers her tracks and buries the clues
She’s only set out to burn you
And you know your better off so c’mon…
Drop the girl… Whooooa
She’s the only reason she’s got you believing its love
Drop the girl… Whooooa
The bridge is best for burning so send her down in flames and get up…
Drop the girl you can taste it on her lips
What she's drinking, who she’s been with
How everything’s gone wrong
Its all her fault and you know
She’ll turn her back on you
She covers her tracks and buries the clues
She’s only set out to burn you
And you know your better off so c’mon….
Drop the girl… Whooooa
She’s the only reason she’s got you believing its love
Drop the girl… Whooooa
The bridge is best for burning so send her down in flames and just
Drop the girl from the highest building
You can when you have to
You gotta see through the scam
Drop the girl… Whooooa
The bridge is best for burning so send her down in flames and just…
DROP THE GIRL!
Throw your pride aside and show your friends some faith
(Is there a night where she forgets your name?)
Who’s got your back when everything's starting to fall right apart again
(C'mon is that what it takes?)
Throw your pride aside and show your friends some faith
(Is there a night where she forgets your name?)
Who’s got your back when everything's starting to fall right apart again…
(C'mon is that what it takes?)
Drop the girl, she’s no good for you
She'd sink lower than a body in the Hudson could ever do
Drop the girl… Whooooa
She’s the only reason she’s got you believing its love.
Drop the girl… Whooooa
The bridge is best for burning so send her down in flames and just
Drop the girl from the highest building
You can when you have to

The bridge is best for burning so send her down in flames and just….

I found how to get to her now
I'll whisper in her ear when shes asleep
And begging to love me
When the morning comes she'll never know
Cause right now i think i'm on my way out
I've been tying bells to window screens
So i can hear her leave in the morning
But it never helps and i never know
Where your late to go when your all alone
And why you cant be reached does anybody know
Waking up again are you listening
To anything i'm saying
Tell me where you are
And i'll find you
Tell me what it takes to see this through
Tell me what it takes to get to you
And i'll be there waiting
Ohoh ohoh ohoh whoa
See i've been falling head over her heels
So when she disappears she knows i'll be here waiting up
So i've vowed the moment that she leaves town
Yeah i'll be hopping trains to get away and try to save face
But i know its never far enough
Still i'll never know
Where your late to go when your all alone
And why you cant be reached does anybody know?
Waking up again are you listening
To anything i say
Tell me where you are
And i'll find you
Tell me what it takes to see this through
Tell me what it takes to get to you
And i'll be there waiting
Waiting for you to come home
Waiting the words were gone
Waiting for you to answer
When i ask you to tell me where you are
. . .

She throws on her makeup
her friends say she's made up
she's everything a scene should be
when she's folding her arms
she holds her applause
just to let you know
She hangs em high everywhere she goes
she bleeds em dry and everybody knows
she takes time to talk about all her famous friends
and what crew they're in so don't get her started
She's out of her mind
over half of the time
crying in alleys while her friends are inside
you wouldn't believe
when she swears she's 18
but everybody knows
She'll never get what she never got
baby lead on...
She hangs em high everywhere she goes
she bleeds em dry and everybody knows
she takes time to talk about all her famous friends
and what crew they're in
she can party harder that you can
you don't understand so don't get her...
You'll never have what you never had in you to start
you'll never get it cause you never know what you want
you take advantage but you never seem to take it to heart
lead on, lead on
You'll never have what you never had in you to start
you'll never get it cause you never know what you want
you take advantage but you never seem to take it to heart
lead on, lead on
Oooooohhhhhhhh (everywhere she goes)
Ooooooohhhhhhh (and everybody knows)
She takes time to talk about (all her friends)
She hangs em high everywhere she goes
she bleeds em dry and everybody knows
she takes time to talk about all her famous friends
and what crew they're in
she can party harder that you can
you don't understand so don't get her...

I've been carving down the days on my bedroom door
Teeth are all but gone
Take it or beat it
Don't grab me when I'm sleeping
Busted out the boards on my window sill
Nails tried keep me here I'm dying
But nothing can stop me from trying
To crawl my way out this day
Before I decay
I will make a clean break
Burn it down, I'll burn this town behind me
And run until I cant breathe
I'm breaking out
I buried all my mistakes
And we bend until my back breaks
Consider them convinced I'm a lunatic
Eyes are wide and crazed
I feel it happen, oh they can have it
Sent a stack of bricks through the neighbors house
They don't know how lucky they all are
They swiped the vultures aside
I swear they're alive, boy just look in their eyes
Burn it down, I'll burn this town behind me
And run until I cant breathe
I'm breaking out
I buried all my mistakes
And we bend until my back breaks down
I graced our photo scenes of needs
I took this city out
At the knees at least
On your gravestone
Covered in words will read nothing more than
Rest In, Rest In Peace
Burn it down, I'll burn this town behind me
And run until I cant breathe
I'm breaking out
I buried all my mistakes
And we bend until my back breaks down
. . .

There were ocean waves
big city lights
lazy summer days
and crazy sleepless nights
somewhere along an open road
we drove ourselves out of our minds
sometimes to do the things you love
you leave the ones you love behind
you danced
you drank
you laughed
you cried
you went to work
and said goodbye
i've lived
i learnt
stayed up all night
i'll see you when the time is right again
i wear 'em like they're staring, let the tongues hang out
i'm just too loose for the same old crowd
if i could only see your face before my souls wear out
somewhere out on an open road
you searched until you looked inside
sometimes you've gotta see the world
to find out what you left behind
you danced
you drank
you laughed
you cried
you went to work
and said goodbye
i've lived
i learnt
stayed up all night
i'll see you when the time is right again
wait for me
(don't wait, don't wait)
wait for me
(don't wait, don't wait)
we walked the floor, the sun, the rise
we packed our bags and waved goodbye
we drove into a great sunset
and lived a life with no regret
we lived a life with no regret
(don't wait, don't wait, don't wait, don't wait)
i can't recall the sun to rise
i'll never know until i try
we made mistakes and learned in time
but on the road we live and die
i can't recall the sun to rise
i'll never know until i try
we made mistakes and learned in time
but on the road we live and die
but on the road we live and die
we live...
(we'll never know...)

Anytime you talk
It's all time used
So you can prove
How big your mouth is.
(Oh the lies that leave those lips)
You've got them dropping like cancer, baby
Colder than ever.
And that's why I'll say
That even if I wanted you back
(And I don't),
You'd still be on call tonight
For anyone who's down.
Every time you call for some sympathy,
Make it worth my while
And cry your eyes out,
Baby, cry your eyes out.
Every time you call for some sympathy,
And cry about
Cry about it.
Any word I bought was sold by you,
So tell me how you deal with dead ends.
(Oh the lies that lead those hips)
You've got me sweating a heart attack,
Coming from all the stress you put me through.
And even if I wanted you back
(And I don't),
You'd still be on call tonight
For anyone who's down.
I've had it.
Every time you call for some sympathy,
Make it worth my while
And cry your eyes out,
Baby, cry your eyes out.
Every time you call for some sympathy,
Make it worth my time
And cry about
Cry about it.
Cry about it now,
It's not like anyone's supposed to know
You were here making
More messes for yourself
So figure out your damage
And own up to what was said.
Save your excuses,
I'm not hearing it.
Every time you call for some sympathy,
Make it worth my while
And cry your eyes out,
Baby, cry your eyes out.
Every time you call for some sympathy,
Make it worth my time
And cry your eyes out,
Baby, cry your eyes out.
Every time you call for some sympathy,
Make it worth my time
And cry about
Cry about it.
(Oh the lies that leave those lips)...

They'll build statues in our likeness
They wanted to be like us
But did they ever like us anyway?
(We always) gave em the cold shoulder
Our shoulders just got colder
They deserve an elbow to the face
I'll build this monument just to tear it down
(Tear it down now)
And dedicate it to this bitter town and this broken sound
And I'll send postcards to enemies
Made sure to sign and date each one while singing
"Wish you were here"
And I'll send postcards to enemies
Made sure to sign and date each one while singing
"Wish you were here"
Wish you were here
I'll build a throne
Of those who died searching for gold
Just to find it's found inside our hearts
"What a jip"
You'll hear them say
Tossing, turning in their graves
All this time searching in vain for what?
Blowing kisses to the masses
In this ticker-tape parade
We're saints of this backseat
Swear to God we've got it made
(Got it made)
And I'll send postcards to enemies
Made sure to sign and date each one while singing
"Wish you were here"
And I'll send postcards to enemies
Made sure to sign and date each one while singing
"Wish you were here"
I wish you were here
Today, we're making history
Tonight, we'll take it to the streets
Tomorrow, we'll live in infamy
We're under attack
Pull the knife from our backs and hold it to their throats
And I'll send postcards to enemies
Made sure to sign and date each one while singing
"Wish you were here"
And I'll send postcards to enemies
Made sure to sign and date each one while singing
"Wish you were here"
They'll build statues in our likeness
They wanted to be like us
But did they ever like us anyway?

I want a big house that sits by the shore
And when I wake up I can watch the tide rise
All of my friends they would live next door
And every night we'd build a fire in the backyard
We'd listen to all our favorite songs
Watch it burn and we sing along
On and on and on oh oh oh
On and on and on
Woke up this morning it was bitter cold
Pieced together where the car was parked
Now I'm running late to work
I took the backroads behind the prison yard
This year is slinking by so slow
This town has watched me come and go
On and on and on oh oh oh
On and on and on
Do you believe that your in control?
Up late watching tv shows
And get the feeling that we are the products
Of generations I'm searching for gold
Think we're the best just to stay afloat
On and on and on oh oh oh
On and on and on
The waves crash on and on and on oh oh oh
On and on and on
When you feel the water pull you down
You're caught up in the gravity
Don't let it take you out to drown
Just hold your head above this
Take me back to the place
Where we were standing at the top
When we were living everyday
Like its the last one that we've got
Yeah we'll go back to the days that went on and on and on
And we'll get back to the place where waves crashed on and on and on
. . .
