When you crawl do you crawl for me
When you come do you come for me
U say U want someone who's devoted
U say U want someone who's not afraid to be strong
U say U want someone, someone not me
[chorus]
Cause I don't know what it takes to be a man
I'm doin all the things that you said
Now I don't know what it takes to be me
I don't know what it takes, but I'll try
Tryin hard like the next guy
All I know is I want to fall in love
When you cry do you cry for me
When you fight do you fight to be free
Cause you say you want someone who's devoted
U say U want someone who's not afraid to be strong
U say U want someone, someone not me
[chorus]
When you cry, don't cry for me
Don't cry for me not me no
[chorus]
I don't know what it takes but I'll try, I'll try,

I don't know how long it takes
All I know is that I can't wait much longer
I don't know what it take
All I can hope is the pain will only make us stronger
Is it the air in my breath that makes you afraid
That I'm about to say what I never should say
[chorus]
To someone just like you who always gets confused between love and abuse
And all the people you use or someone just like me
who can't go to sleep without falling in love without playing for keeps
But we can touch the sky if we only try
I don't know why the water breaks
But the wind in my hair makes me feel like I'm someone stronger,
I don't know why I make mistakes
But all I can hope is the pain will only make us stronger
Is it the air in my breath that makes you afraid that I'm about to say what
I never should say
[chorus]

On these cold nights the silence never helps
It's just a wake up call, a wake up fall
And I should've braced myself but what fun would that have been
I would have missed out on feeling but I'm not gonna let this faze me
I've learned the beauty of letting go and I'm letting you know
[chorus]
That it's alright I'm right her for you forever on these cold nights
I'm right here for you forever on these cold nights
I wonder how you make it through
Does he hold you, and does he need you like I do
When you finally find yourself will you have the strength to say
I feel you and God I need you
But I'm not gonna let this phase me
Cause I've learned the beauty of letting go
But I'm still letting you know
[chorus]
I'm not gonna let this phase me [x3]
I've learned
The beauty of letting go I'm letting you know
. . .

You were just about ready to give me away
Just about ready to sell me out
Now I know and now you know
I don't care and now you know
I don't care I was just about ready to cause a scene
Just about ready, but you know me now you know
Now you know I don't care
Now you know, I don't care
[chorus]
Cause you can run and you can hide
But you will never make it out alive
Cause there's only one way out of here
There's only one way out of here
You were just about ready to call it a night
Just about ready now that ain't right
Now I know and now you know I don't care
I was just about ready to let you go
Just about ready to steal this show
And now you know now you know I don't care
Now you know I don't care
[chorus 2x]
There's only one way out of here [repeat]
I was just about ready to cause a scene

Speak now or forever
Hold your peace
Life's too short
So would you walk with me
You're too scared to say what you need from me
When I need you to speak
Now or forever hold your arms around me
I can see the sun but it's fading out it's fading out it's fading
[chorus]
When you swore that you would change so
What happens now is what happens now
And I swore I'd rearrange and make time for us
Have we lost all trust
Speak now or forever
Hold your tongue when your mouth is dry
My bodies numb your too scared to say what you need from me
When I need you to speak now or forever
Hold your arms around me
I can see the sun but it's fading out its fading out its fading out
[chorus]
[lead break]

Clinically insane that's all I need
A warm bed to lay my head and soft word spoke unto me
I'd probably be better off dead
But I've been waitin all year
For this to become clear
[chorus]
So tonight, I'm gonna ride tonight
I'm gonna clear my mind
Yeah tonight I'm gonna drive you out of my life
Better company that's all you need
Better company besides me
Now my last breath is pushed out of me
All I have left I can't see but I've been waitin all year for this to become
clear
[chorus]
For the last time yeah
I've been waitin all year for this to become clear
So tonight I'm gonna ride
Tonight I'm gonna clear my mind
Tonight I'm gonna drive you out of my life tonight I'm gonna ride tonight
I'm gonna clear my mind tonight

I lie here awake wondrin if you're lying awake
Feelin like I do
Hell maybe I'm just paranoid
I thought I had it all figured out
Was it me that this break up was all about
Maybe I'm just paranoid or maybe I'm not good enough for you
Maybe you've got more important things to do
Maybe I'm just paranoid [x2]
I'll still answer when you call
Should I even talk to you at all
Maybe I'm just paranoid
I'm never gonna find another girl just like you
Cause your the only one left in my world
Maybe I'm just paranoid or maybe I'm never gonna feel this way again
Maybe I just threw away my best friend
Maybe I'm just paranoid [x2]
[lead]
Maybe I'm not good enough for you
Maybe you've got more important things to do
Maybe I'm never gonna feel this way again
Maybe I just threw away my best friend

Forget the things I said last night
Cause I was wrong and you were right
I can't believe the things I say to you
Sometimes there's 24hrs till I go away
They want me over there
So I can't stay
So I say make the best of the times we have
[chorus]
Hold on to me tonight
Cause this could be the last time
Hold on to me forever
My friends think that I should be out hangin around their local bars
What's wrong with this town
All I really want or need is you
There's 24hrs. till I have to leave
Then I'm off to see what I can see
It's my job don't take it personally
[chorus]
[lead break]
Forget the things I said last night [x2]
Cause I was wrong and you were right

I'm a man, who cares
That's my biggest flaw
If I play by the rules
I might make role call
I'm not gonna let you or anyone else break me again,
Cause I can break myself
I think it's time to make a stand
[chorus]
So if this is what you want
I'll let you slip away
If this is what you are
I'll let you slip away
No matter how much it hurts
I'll watch you walk away
I'm a man who cares
Heart wide open
Some call me a fake
Some call me a showman
I'm not gonna let them or anyone else break me again
Cause I can break myself
I think it's time to make a stand
[chorus]

Well I hope it was good for you
Did you get your satisfaction from leaving me
Confused by this love hate chain reaction
[chorus]
Cause I'm not gonna wait forever and I'm not gonna be deceived
I'm not gonna wait forever for you to wake up and see
If this is what you call love
This constant push and shove
If this is what you call love
I've had enough and soon you'll get what you deserve
Your temporary satisfaction
And I hope that your confused by my hate love chain reaction
[chorus]
If this is what you call love
This constant push and shove
If this is what you call love, I've had enough [x2]

Wherever you may go
I wanted you to know
I'll always be, I'll always be with you
No matter who you meet
Bbe it a stranger on the street
I'll always be,
I'll always be with you
[chorus]
Until they call me out to sea
I'll be waitin patiently
Until they call me out to sea to die
I'll be right here with you
No matter where you are
You will never be too far
I'll always be, I'll always be with you
And though your face can't hide the scars of a broken torn up heart
I'll always be, I'll always be with you
[chorus]
I'll be right here with you [x3]
No matter where you go
I just wanted you to know I'll always be,
I'll always be with you
Until they call me out to sea
I'll be waitin patiently until they call me out to sea to die

I've been sittin here for a while
Wishing I could finally see you smile
I've been wanting to see you for a long time
But everyday I grow farther from everything I've done and everyone
Here we go again I'm alone now
[chorus]
We try so hard cause we don't know what we're looking for
You try so hard because you don't know what you're looking for
Yeah I try so hard because I don't know what I'm looking for
But yeah I'm happy
I'm happy now
I'm happy
I don't know if I'll ever find you
I don't know if I'll ever need you again
Cause I've been sitting here for so long
Wishing I could write a brand new song
Maybe it will remind you of a time when
[chorus]
[lead break]
[1st verse repeat]
