Lord Knows

The cameras picked you out of this place,
Now you're rising
Lo and behold! Your smile is fake
How surprising
If we could rewind back to your roots,
Admission...
You locked it up and turned the dial
I know the combination

[CHORUS]
Lord knows I'm weak
For trusting you
Lord knows I'm weak
To believe in you

Develop the film and there you are
All your glory
Your negative's dark and just like you
What's the story?
I wanna just rip down the walls and your photos around me
Then there will be nothing left to hold
When I'm lonely

[CHORUS]

Maybe it's alright,
Maybe it's okay
Lord knows I'm weak...

[BRIDGE]
Snap! Take a picture
Cause you won't be seeing me around
No more. Did you ever picture
You and me on the cutting room floor?
I lose my composure every time
You're overexposed and no longer mine
Your red eyes cut me
It's no surprise that I am weak...

[CHORUS]

Maybe it's alright,
Maybe it's okay
Lord knows I'm weak...

San Sebastian

Been losing sleep around you
Don't know just how I found you
We swam in San Sebastian
Broken necks and halo traction
We swam in San Sebastian...

Hearing something not right in your tone
Got a feeling that you're not quite on your own
I swim in San Diego
Tie these bricks to my legs and let go
Tie these bricks to my legs and let go...

[CHORUS]
Been losing sleep around you
Don't know just how I found you
Been losing sleep around you
Don't know just how I found you
Please. Don't. Leave. [x2]
I swim in San Diego
Tie these bricks to my legs and let go!

So I'll go through this again
Hear you say that we're just friends
I'll drown in a thousand lakes
If it means that you'll miss me

[CHORUS (repeat ending)]

Around The Block

Wonderful as it may seem,
I've never been alone
Open wide and look closely
This is what I'm shown

I've got friends in this cold city
That won't pick up no slack
I've got friends on every street
That wanna stab my back
Oh, Oh, oooh

[CHORUS]
I've been around the block, oh oh
So many times I forgot my address
So many times I don't know where I live

Terrible as it may be
Don't wanna leave this misery
I've got friends in the highest places
They all got their goals
I've got friends with two faces
But don't have one damn soul

[CHORUS]
I've been around this town, oh oh
I'm so high I will never come down
(but) When I do, I hit the hard ground

[1st CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]
Never feel at home
No I don't
I know it's true
I'd leave if not for you
Nowhere else to go
I swear baby,
No one's got no soul no more
No on'es got no soul no more...
Oh, Oh, Ooooh

[2nd CHORUS]
[1st CHORUS]

It Could Happen

Technology won't save you
or your atmosphere
You carry on like nothing's wrong
But it could happen here
Do you live for love?
Do you live for fear?
It's on the other side of life
but it could happen here

[CHORUS]
Maybe too late
Better find some shelter
Maybe it's fate
But it could happen
Will we ever pick up all these pieces?
I look around and all I see is pieces
And if you think that you are free,
Don't be so naive

Catastrophes don't phase you
Make you realize
There's more to life than causing strife
To build and enterprise
Do you live for change?
Or do you live for fear?
History can prove this
And it will happen here

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]
Don't be so naive
(no we never have and we never will)
Don't be so afraid
(no we never have and we never will)
Don't be so naive
(no we never have and we never will)
Don't be so afraid
(no we never have and we never will)

[2nd Half of CHORUS]

(Do you live for love?
Do you live for fear?
It's a long way to the bottom
But it could happen here)

What I Feel Is Mine

I've spilling all my guts for this
And every time I miss
I swear it's maddening
I can't feel beyond my fingertips
Under my feet I trip
but am I stopping?

[CHORUS]
Please save me
From this relationship
Let me have just what I feel is mine
Lay down
Under the bluest sky
I wanna feel the sun until I'm blind

I don't know what I'm supposed to do
So when it comes to you
I'm at a still-stand
Time well spent is getting far and few
Don't know what else to do
it's out of my hands

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]
Everyone needs a time of rescue
Why do I feel stuck with this?
And maybe ours is overdue
I don't want to leave this mess
There's only one thing left to do
Why do I feel stuck with this?

[CHORUS]

[CHORUS with BRIDGE as back-up]

Forgive & Forget

We always seem to fit like a tight dress
You were beautiful, I was obsessed
Occupy my time just to get through
And try and figure out how to get you
Acoustic guitar just for you in the car
Walks in the park had you home before dark
Poetry readings and dinner proceedings
You showed me something those days they meant nothing

[CHORUS]
What the hell am I supposed to do?
I can't forgive and forget you [x2]
What the hell am I supposed to do
I thought I'd forgive you
But now I forget you

I always showed you off like a prom queen
You were Norma Jean I was James Dean
Sitting thinking in my bedroom
So here's a few things that I went through:
Romantic movies, and money, and jewelry
Vacations and flowers on special occassions
Purses and lockets paid out of my pocket
Diamonds and dresses,
F*ck, you're expensive!

[CHORUS]
What the hell am I supposed to do
I can't forgive and forget you [x2]
If you were in my shoes what would you do?
I thought I'd forgive you, but now I forget you

[BRIDGE]
I can't forgive,
I can't forget
I can't forgive
And I can't forget
YOU
You reached down in my chest and grabbed my soul
How could I forget?

[2nd CHORUS]

I can't forgive
I can't forget

Bad Morning

Wiping the sleep from my eyes
Waking up to no surprises
The feeling of compromise
Telling you my dear, you don't brighten my day

Step into the water cold
These mornings are getting old
Turning the motor over again and again
I just have to get away

My mother told me that
There would be days like this

[CHORUS]
And it's true
There's no feelings
Shackled to the sheets that
Bind me to you,
No more dreaming

1, 2, 3 Bad Morning

Turning and tossing at night
Falling asleep with my eyes wide
Bad moods are justified
Telling you something I don't feel the same

Step in my dream for a while
The nightmare of every child
Finding the monster under again and again
I just have to get away

My mother told me that
There would be days like this

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]
I wish I never woke up this morning
I wish I never spoke up today
I have seen better days...

[CHORUS x2]

1, 2, 3 Bad Morning

Good (For A Woman)
(from "American Pie 2" soundtrack)

Leather Skin
Lately it's what I've been thinking about
This alien girl from above
We can share our love

I got it good for a woman
She's something else
She's not quite human(2x)

Venusian Queen
You're so bright the sun gets mean
I swear it's a dream
But I pinch myself and your still green

I got it good for a woman
She's something else
She's not quite human

I'm head over heals for this space case
Something rhymes and no one fades

I got it good for a woman
She's something else
She's not quite human

My head's spinning
Around the world and back again(2x)

I got it good for a woman
She's something else
She's not quite human(2x)
