Knowing our two worlds will someday just collide

I couldn't care, cuz I'm already there
I'm already there, and I'm ready there

Just a boy who's young at heart, his smile was a bit like yours today
Had a wife, a kid, some strife, never had to go astray
Happiness evolved, life was in full swing at 17
All the things he wanted were things he'd never seen

It don't seem fair, cuz I'm already there
I'm already there, and I'm ready there

"On The Lie"

He burned down the house one night
He had a loaded six-pack gun
He said that Jesus Christ was just like a cop
You know, you never know when they'll come
She said every day above ground was another dream come true
He said I'd hang and swap clichés all night
But I'm not in love with you

And I never got serious
'Til everything went black
And I ain't so curious
That I'm ever going back

On the lie
On the lie
On the lie

On the lie

He said, man you want to be Elvis
I said I ain't dying face down
He said you gotta die facing up in the world
Cuz there's too many holes around

He asked what was wrong with me
He said I looked like a Hollywood girl
I said that Hollywood can fall into the ocean, man
Cuz it's the ugliest place in the whole wide world, and

And I never got serious
'Til everything went black
And I ain't so curious

That I'm ever going back

On the lie
On the lie
On the lie
On the lie

On the lie, he was
On the lie
On the lie, she was
On the lie
On the lie, he was
On the lie
It's all been a stinkin' lie

"Close Your Eyes"

I wish I had a saxophone
I'd play the blues 'til you came home
With a little sadness in your eyes

Now that all my time was spent
In the walk your heaven sent

Thinking 'bout all the nights you cried

Had a certain passion
And I had silly dreams
A look of vicious actions
Don't close your eyes to me
Don't close your eyes to me
Oh, don't close your eyes to me
Don't close your eyes to me

I wish I had a camera lens
To film the things my mind had said

Before they reached my mouth and got all bad

Looking at the skies of blue
All day long, I think of you
Even after all the shit we've been through

Had a certain passion
And I had silly dreams
A look of vicious actions
Don't close your eyes to me
Don't close your eyes to me
Please don't close your eyes to me
Don't close your eyes to me
Oh, don't close your eyes to me
Close your eyes to me
Close your eyes to me
Eyes to me
Close your eyes to me
Don't close your eyes to me
Close your eyes to me
Close your eyes to me
Don't close your eyes to me

Before they reached my mouth and got all bad

Looking at the skies of blue
All day long, I think of you
Even after all the shit we've been through

Had a certain passion
And I had silly dreams
A look of vicious actions
Don't close your eyes to me
Don't close your eyes to me
Please don't close your eyes to me
Don't close your eyes to me
Oh, don't close your eyes to me
Close your eyes to me
Close your eyes to me
Eyes to me
Close your eyes to me
Don't close your eyes to me
Close your eyes to me
Close your eyes to me
Don't close your eyes to me

"So Far Away"

Why do you stare me down?
Am I wrong?
Should I turn and kiss the ground?
And I never felt that way
I ain't the one and you know I don't come from such a place

And I didn't get those things
Those things that you can't grow
You say that it's all my fault

And I don't need to know

Tell me something I don't know
And I'll find that I'm always looking 'round behind me
You said that it's all been said before
Now I find that there's something I don't know

And I hate your attitude
I ain't scared at all cuz it don't matter what you do
And I'll turn around to see the truth
You're tearing it down, yeah, you're bringing it down
