The Jokes

[Chorus]
The jokes about you all of them
The jokes about it is not the same
The jokes about they're all that matters
I put a smile on historical
The jokes about you all of them
The jokes about it is not the same
The jokes about they're all that matters
I put a smile on historical

[Chorus]
The jokes about you all of them
The jokes about it is not the same
The jokes about they're all that matters
I put a smile on historical
The jokes about you all of them
The jokes about it is not the same
The jokes about they're all that matters
I put a smile on historical

[Chorus]
The jokes about you all of them
The jokes about it is not the same
The jokes about they're all that matters
I put a smile on historical
The jokes about you all of them
The jokes about it is not the same
The jokes about they're all that matters
I put a smile on historical

[Refrain]
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes

[Interlude]
Hey you! Just think while you're in a row of a sudden urge the best of all time high right here is my new phone case for a long day ahead and the jokes are so much better now than ever to have the right thing and it will not have to do it all day today I have a lot more to come back and the jokes on me I have no idea what I was in a row of my favorite thing about being able a new song on my old phone call to get my money where we can be used for the next two weeks before finally getting.

[Bridge]
The jokes are you a lot of the year before I go to bed
The jokes on the phone and the otherwise it would be
The jokes about a month or more to do that in my inbox and a few tears
Why are we doing this to be the jokes

[Chorus]
The jokes about you all of them
The jokes about it is not the same
The jokes about they're all that matters
I put a smile on historical
The jokes about you all of them
The jokes about it is not the same
The jokes about they're all that matters
I put a smile on historical

[Refrain x4]
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes

The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes
The jokes, the jokes, the jokes, the jokes

The Last Time

Gary Lightbody:
Found myself at your door,
Just like all those times before,
I'm not sure how I got there,
All roads they lead me here.

I imagine you are home,
In your room, all alone,
And you open your eyes into mine,
And everything feels better,

Both:
Right before your eyes,
I'm breaking and fast,
No reasons why,
Just you and me.

This is the last time I'm asking you this,
Put my name on the top of your list,
This is the last time I'm asking you why,
You break my heart in the blink of an eye.

Taylor Swift:
You find yourself at my door,
Just like all those times before,
You wear your best apology,
But I was there to watch you leave,

And all the times I let you in,
Just for you to go again,
Disappear when you come back,
Everything is better.

Both:
When right before your eyes,
I'm aching, run fast,
Nowhere to hide,
Just you and me...

This is the last time I'm asking you this,
Put my name on the top of your list,
This is the last time I'm asking you why,
You break my heart in the blink of an eye, eye, eye...

This is the last time you tell me I've got it wrong,
This is the last time I say it's been you all along,
This is the last time I let you in my door,
This is the last time, I won't hurt you anymore.

Oh, oh, oh,

This is the last time I'm asking you this,
Put my name on the top of your list,
This is the last time I'm asking you why,
You break my heart in the blink of an eye.

This is the last time I'm asking you this, (this is the last time I'm asking you this)
Put my name on the top of your list, (name on the top of your list)
This is the last time I'm asking you why, (this is the last time I'm asking you why)
You break my heart in the blink of an eye. (You break my heart...)

This is the last time I'm asking you this,
Time I'm asking you this,
Time I'm asking you this,
Time I'm asking you this.. (x3)

The Lucky One

New to town with a made up name in the angel city,
Chasing fortune and fame.
And the camera flashes, make it look like a dream.
You had it figured out since you were in school.
Everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool.
So overnight you look like a sixties' queen.

Another name goes up in lights, like diamonds in the sky.

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one.
Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one.
But can you tell me now, you're the lucky one.

Now it's big black cars, and Riviera views,
And your lover in the foyer doesn't even know you
And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page.

And they tell you that you're lucky.
But you're so confused,
Cause you don't feel pretty, you just feel used.
And all the young things line up to take your place.

Another name goes up in lights. You wonder if you'll make it out alive.

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one.
Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one.
Can you tell me now, you're the lucky one, oh, oh, oh.

It was a few years later, I showed up here.
And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared,
How you took the money and your dignity, and got the hell out.
They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere,
Chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square,
And it took some time, but I understand it now.

'Cause now my name is up in lights, but I think you got it right,

Let me tell you now, you're the lucky one.
Let me tell you now, you're the lucky one.
Let me tell you now, you're the lucky one, oh, oh, oh.

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one.
Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one.
And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, whoa, oh, oh.

The Middle

hey

it's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on
just try your best
try everything you can
don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away

it just takes some time
little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
everything everything will be just fine
everything everything will be all right, all right

hey you know they're all the same
you know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in
live right now
just be yourself
it doesn't matter if it's good enough, for someone else

it just takes some time
little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
everything everything will be just fine
everything everything will be all right, all right (x2)

hey - don't write yourself off yet

just do your best
do everything you can
don't you worry what their bitter hearts are gonna say

it just takes some time
little girl, you're in the middle of the ride

The Moment I Knew

You should've been there,
Should've burst through the door,
With that 'baby I'm right here' smile,
And it would've felt like,
A million little shining stars had just aligned,
And I would've been so happy.

Christmas lights glisten,
I've got my eye on the door,
Just waiting for you to walk in,
But the time is ticking,
People ask me how I've been
As I comb back through my memory,
How you said you'd be here,
You said you'd be here.

And it was like slow motion,
Standing there in my party dress,
In red lipstick,
With no one to impress,
And they're all laughing,
As I'm looking around the room,
But there's one thing missing,
And that was the moment I knew.

And the hours pass by,
Now I just wanna be alone,
But your close friends always seem to know
When there's something really wrong,
So they follow me down the hall,
And there in the bathroom,
I try not to fall apart,
And the sinking feeling starts,
As I say hopelessly,
"He said he'd be here."

And it was like slow motion,
Standing there in my party dress,
In red lipstick,
With no one to impress,
And they're all laughing,
And asking me about you,
But there's one thing missing,
And that was the moment I knew.

What do you say
When tears are streaming down your face
In front of everyone you know?
And what do you do when the one
Who means the most to you
Is the one who didn't show?

You should've been here.
And I would've been so happy.

And it was like slow motion,
Standing there in my party dress,
In red lipstick,
With no one to impress,
And they're all standing around me singing
"Happy birthday to you",
But there's one thing missing,
And that was the moment I knew.

Ooh, I knew.

You call me later,
And say, "I'm sorry, I didn't make it,"
And I say, "I'm sorry too,"
And that was the moment I knew.

The Other Side Of The Door

In the heat of the fight
I walked away,
Ignoring words that you were saying,
Tryna make me stay.
I said, "This time I've had enough."
And you've called a hundred times,
But I'm not pickin' up.
'Cause I'm so mad, I might tell you that it's over.
But if you look a little closer

I said, "Leave," but all I really want is you
To stand outside my window, throwing pebbles,
screaming, "I'm in love with you."
Wait there in the pourin' rain,
Come back for more.
And don't you leave,
'cause I know all I need
is on the other side of the door.

Me and my stupid pride
I'm sittin' here, alone.
I'm going through the photographs,
Staring at the phone.
I keep going back over
Things we both said
And I remember the slammin' door,
And all the things that I misread.
So babe if you know everything
Tell me why you couldn't see
That when I left I wanted you to
Chase after me? Yeah

I said, "Leave," but all I really want is you
To stand outside my window, throwing pebbles,
screaming, "I'm in love with you."
Wait there in the pourin' rain,
Come back for more.
And don't you leave,
'cause I know all I need
is on the other side of the door.

And I scream out the window,
"I can't even look at you, I don't need you,"
But I do, I do, I do.
I say, "There's nothing you can say
To make this right again, I mean it,
I mean it"
What I mean is

I said, "Leave," but baby all I want is you
To stand outside my window, throwing pebbles,
screaming, "I'm in love with you."
Wait there in the pourin' rain,
Come back for more.
And don't you leave,
'cause I know all I need
is on the other side of the door.

With your face, and your beautiful eyes
And the conversation
With the little white lies.
And the faded picture
Of a beautiful night
You carried me from your car
up the stairs
And I broke down cryin'
Was she worth this mess?
After everything and that little black dress
After everything I must confess,
I need you

I said, "Leave," but baby all I really want is you
To stand outside my window, throwing pebbles,
screaming, "I'm in love with you."
Wait there in the pourin' rain,
Come back for more.
And don't you leave,
'cause I know all I need
is on the other side of the door.

The Outside

I didn't know what I would find
When I went looking for a reason, I know
I didn't read between the lines
And, baby, I've got nowhere to go

I tried to take the road less traveled by
But nothing seems to work the first few times
Am I right?

So how can I ever try to be better?
Nobody ever lets me in
I can still see you, this ain't the best view
On the outside looking in

I've been a lot of lonely places
I've never been on the outside

You saw me there, but never knew
That I would give it all up to be
A part of this, a part of you
And now it's all too late so you see

You could've helped if you had wanted to
But no one notices until it's too
Late to do anything

How can I ever try to be better?
Nobody ever lets me in
I can still see you, this ain't the best view
On the outside looking in

I've been a lot of lonely places
I've never been on the outside

Oh, yeah

How can I ever try to be better?
Nobody ever lets me in
And I can still see you, this ain't the best view
On the outside looking in

I've been a lot of lonely places
I've never been on the outside

The Story Of Us

[Chorus:]
This is just another story bout boy meets girl,
Boy leaves her
Crashes her world.
This is the story bout me and you, and everything that we been through

This ain't no fairytale kinda story babe,
This was real.
Never thought that one day I'd be able to tell you how I feel.
Don't you remember that night, that Saturday night, you took my hand and it felt so right
And at that moment I told you about my dreams, everything I wanted us to be...

[Chorus]

Summer passed quick, all was ending
And I could feel fall on my shoulders
I was waiting till September and I'd see your face but in that moment I knew it was over.

And I remember that day, you moved away
Every little bit of my heart just sank
I remember what happened when I came home, I ran to my room and closed the door...

[Chorus]

Oh, I was out of town one day,
I saw you sitting on the porch, you looked at me
You said sorry that you did me wrong
You been thinking bout me all along
I said baby I don't even care
I'm just glad I'm here.

This is just another story bout boy meets girl,
Boy loves her
Rocks her world.
This is the story bout me and you, and everything that we been through [x2]

That we've been through, woah oh

The Way I Loved You

He is sensible and so incredible
And all my single friends are jealous
He says everything I need to hear and it's like
I couldn't ask for anything better

He opens up my door and I get into his car
And he says, you look beautiful tonight
And I feel perfectly fine

But I've been screamin' and fightin'
And kissin' in the rain
And it's two a.m. and I'm cursin' your name
You're so in love that you act insane
And that's the way I loved you

Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kinda rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you

He respects my space and never makes me wait
And he calls exactly when he says he will
He's close to my mother
Talks business with my father
He's charming and endearing, and I'm comfortable

But I've been screamin' and fightin'
And kissin' in the rain
And it's two a.m. and I'm cursin' your name
You're so in love that you act insane
And that's the way I loved you

Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kinda rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you

He can't see the smile I'm fakin'
And my heart's not breakin'
'Cause I'm not feelin' anything at all

And you were wild and crazy
Just so frustrating, intoxicating, complicated
Got away by some mistake and now

I'll be screamin' and fightin'
And kissin' in the rain
It's two a.m. and I'm cursin' your name
I'm so in love that I acted insane
And that's the way I loved you

Breakin' down and comin' undone
It's a roller-coaster kinda rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you

And that's the way I loved you
I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you

The Worst Days With You

She acts like shes 5 years old
since its cold shes got her big coat on
I hear people laugh at her
i look up bored
and she cries and runs
We star throwing stuff at her and she tries to hide
this starts to get old
She hugs her legs
and we put her to sleep
im forced to take her home

And shes stupid to know why the trees change in the fall.
And i know that she is scared
of every little thing and all
She thinks snow whites house very near how dumb
but i know we had the worst day
ever today.

she starts acting like shes 13 and thinks everyone is mean
She starts crying
And i push her away
and cut her with my keys
and she starts to drive and drive until she found a town far enough away
And she sulks and walks and tries to forget all our names

And she know if shes ever going to finish school
And she knows shell never laugh
cause we shrunk and she grew
she dont know how lng itll take to feel okay

but she knows she had the wors day ever today

She had a bullying father
She thought she was getting stronger
Her mom beats up her little brother
inside and out hes more popular than she is
She grew up in an ugly house
and had no space to run
and she had the worst days with me

there was a video i found from back when we were three
she was trying to paint in the kitchen and she was talking to me
it was the age of teasing and bullying and throwing eggs at her window
And her dad was super dumb
and i was the most handsome boy
in the whole wide world

and now she knows why
all the trees change in the fall
and she knows i was never on her side
and always said she was wrong
and she hates me
for giving her the evil eyes
and making her feel like
she could shine
and i dont know if she knew
so im taking this chance to say
that i always have the worst days
when im with you.
