"Take Me Away"
I
cannot find a way to describe it
It's there inside; all I do is hide
I wish that it would just go away
What would
you do, you do, if you knew
What would you do
[Chorus:]
All the pain I thought I knew
All the thoughts
lead back to you
Back to what was never said
Back and forth inside my head
I can't handle this confusion
I'm
unable; come and take me away
I feel like I am all alone
All by myself I need to get around this
My words are
cold, I don't want them to hurt you
If I show you, I don't think you'd understand
Cause no one understands
[Chorus]
I'm
going nowhere (on and on and)
I'm getting nowhere (on and on and on)
Take me away
I'm going nowhere (on and off and
off and on)
(and off and on)
[Chorus]
Take me away
Break me away
Take me away
"Together"
Something just isn't right
I can feel it inside
The truth
isn't far behind me
You can't deny
When I turn the lights out
When I close my eyes
Reality overcomes me
I'm
living a lie
When I'm alone I
Feel so much better
And when Im around you
I don't feel
[Chorus:]
Together
It
doesn't feel right at all
Together
Together we've built a wall
Together
Holding hands we'll fall
Hands we'll
fall
This has gone on so long
I realize that i need
Something good to rely on
Something for me
When
I'm alone I
Feel so much better
And when Im around you
I don't feel
[Chorus]
My heart is broken
I'm
lying here
My thoughts are choking on you my dear
On you my dear
On you my dear
When I'm alone I
Feel
so much better
And when Im around you
I don't feel
[Chorus x2]
When I'm around you
When I'm
around you
I don't feel together
I don't feel together
When I'm around you
When I'm around you
I don't feel
together
I don't feel together
"Don't Tell Me"
You held my hand and walked me home, I know
Why you gave
me that kiss it was something like this it made me go ooh ohh
You wiped my tears, got rid of all my fears, why did you
have to go?
Guess it wasn't enough to take up some of my love
Guys are so hard to trust
Did I not tell you that
I'm not like that girl?
The one who gives it all away
[Chorus:]
Did you think that I was gonna give it
up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was somethin I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Dont
try to tell me what to say,
You're better off that way
Don't think that your charm and the fact that your arm is
now around my neck
Will get you in my pants I'll have to kick your ass and make you never forget
I'm gonna ask you
to stop, thought I liked you a lot, but I'm really upset
Get out of my head get off of my bed yeah thats what I said
Did
I not tell you that I'm not like that girl, the one who, throws it all away
[Chorus]
This guilt trip
that you put me on won't, mess me up I've done no wrong
Any thoughts of you and me have gone away
[Chorus]
Better
off that way
I'm better off alone anyway
"He Wasn't"
There's not much going on today.
I'm really bored, it's getting
late.
What happened to my Saturday?
Monday's coming, the day I hate.
Sit on the bed alone, staring at the phone.
He
wasn't what I wanted, what I thought, no.
He wouldn't even open up the door.
He never made me feel like I was special.
He
isn't really what I'm looking for.
This is when I start to bite my nails.
And clean my room when all else fails.
I
think it's time for me to bail.
This point of view is getting stale.
Sit on the bed alone, staring at the phone.
He
wasn't what I wanted, what I thought, no.
He wouldn't even open up the door.
He never made me feel like I was special.
He
isn't really what I'm looking for.
Na na na na na, we've all got choices.
Na na na na, we've all got voices.
Na
na na na na, stand up make some noise.
Na na na na, stand up make some noise.
Sit on the bed alone, staring at the
phone.
He wasn't what I wanted, what I thought, no.
He wouldn't even open up the door.
He never made me feel like
I was special.
He isn't really what I'm looking for.
He wasn't what I wanted, what I thought, no.
He wouldn't even
open up the door.
He never made me feel like I was special.
Like I was special, cuz I was special.
Na na na na
na.
"How Does It Feel"
I'm not afraid of anything
I just need to know that
i can breathe
I don't need much of anything
But suddenly, suddenly
I am small and the world is big
All around
me is fast moving
Surrounded by so many things
But suddenly, suddenly
[Chorus]
How does it feel, to
be different from me?
Are we the same?
How does it feel, to be different from me?
Are we the same?
How does it
feel?
I'm young, and I am free
But I get tired, and I get weak
I get lost, and I can't sleep
But suddenly,
suddenly
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Would you comfort me
Would you cry with me;
Ahh, ahh,
ahh-ah
ahh, ahh-ah
ahh, ahh-ah
ahh, ahh-ah
Ahh, ahh, ahh-ah
ahh, ahh-ah
ahh, ahh-ah
ahh, ahh-ah
I
am small and the world is big
But I'm not afraid of anything;
[Chorus x2]
[Ending (background)]
How
does it feel [x2]
Different from me, different...
(ahh, ahh, ahh-ah;
ahh-ah,
ahh-ah,
ahh, ahh, ahh-ah;
ahh-ah,
ahh-ah)
"My Happy Ending"
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
Let's
talk this over
It's not like we're dead
Was it something I did?
Was it something You said?
Don't leave me hanging
In
a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I
thought we could be
[Chorus:]
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed
to be, but we lost it
And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So
much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
You've got your dumb friends
I know what they say
They tell
you I'm difficult
But so are they
But they don't know me
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me
All
the shit that you do
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
[Chorus]
It's
nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one
It's
nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done
[Chorus x2]
[x2]
Oh
oh, oh oh, oh oh...
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...
"Nobody's Home"
I couldn't tell you why she felt that way,
She felt it
everyday.
And I couldn't help her,
I just watched her make the same mistakes again.
What's wrong, what's wrong
now?
Too many, too many problems.
Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs.
She wants to go home, but nobody's
home.
It's where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.
Open
your eyes and look outside, find the reasons why.
You've been rejected, and now you can't find what you left behind.
Be
strong, be strong now.
Too many, too many problems.
Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs.
She wants to
go home, but nobody's home.
It's where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken
inside.
Her feelings she hides.
Her dreams she can't find.
She's losing her mind.
She's fallen behind.
She
can't find her place.
She's losing her faith.
She's fallen from grace.
She's all over the place.
Yeah,oh
She
wants to go home, but nobody's home.
It's where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry
her eyes.
Broken inside.
She's lost inside, lost inside...oh oh
She's lost inside, lost inside...oh oh yeah
"Forgotten"
Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah
I'm giving up on everything
Because
you messed me up
Don't know how much you
Screwed it up
You never listened
That's just too bad
Because I'm moving
on
I won't forget
You were the one that was wrong
I know I need to step up and be strong
Don't patronize me
Yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah
[Chorus:]
Have you forgotten
Everything that I wanted
Do you forget it now
You
never got It
Do you get it now
Yea yea yea yea yea
Yea yea yea yea yea
Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah
Gotta
get away
There's no point in thinking about yesterday
It's too late now
It won't ever be the same
We're so different
now
Yea yea yea yea yea
[Chorus]
I know I wanna run away
I know I wanna run away
Run away
If
only I could run away
If only I could run away
Run away
I told you what i wanted I
I told you what i wanted
What
I wanted
But I was forgotten
I won't be forgotten
Never Again
[Chorus (2x)]
Forgotten
Yeah

Forgotten
Yeah yeah yeah
Forgotten
Yeah yeah yeah
Forgotten
Yeah yeah yeah
"Who Knows?"
Yeah, yeah
Yeah-eah, yeah
Yeah-eah, yeah
Why do
you look so familiar
I could swear that I have seen your face before
I think I like that you seem sincere
I think
I like to get to know you a little bit more
[Chorus]
I think there's something more, life's worth living
for
Who knows what could happen.
Do what you do, just keep on laughing
One thing's true, there's always a brand
new day
I'm gonna live today like it's my last day
Yeah, yeah,
Yeah-eah, yeah,
Yeah-eah, yeah
How
do you always have an opinion
And how do you always find the best way to compromise
We don't need to have a reason
We
don't need anything
We're just wasting time
[Chorus x2]
I think there's something more, life's worth
living for
Who knows what could happen.
Do what you do, just keep on laughing
One thing's true, there's always a
brand new day
Who knows what could happen.
Do what you do, just keep on laughing
One thing's true, there's always
a brand new day
I'm gonna live today like it's my last day
Find yourself, cause I can't find you
Be yourself,
who are you?
Find yourself, cause I can't find you
Be yourself, who are you?
Who knows what could happen.
Do
what you do, just keep on laughing
One thing's true, there's always a brand new day
So you go and make it happen
Do
your best just keep on laughing
I'm telling you, there's always a brand new day
[Chorus]
Who knows what
could happen.
Do what you do, just keep on laughing
One thing's true, there's always a brand new day
I'm gonna live
today like it's my last day
"Fall To Pieces"
I looked away
Then I look back at you
You try to say
The
things that you can't undo
If I had my way
I'd never get over you
Today's the day
I pray that we make it through
Make
it through the fall
Make it through it all
[Chorus:]
And I don't wanna fall to pieces
I just want to
sit and stare at you
I don't want to talk about it
And I don't want a conversation
I just want to cry in front of
you
I don't want to talk about it
Cuz I'm in Love With you
You're the only one,
I'd be with till the end
When
I come undone
You bring me back again
Back under the stars
Back into your arms
[Chorus]
Wanna
know who you are
Wanna know where to start
I wanna know what this means
Wanna know how you feel
Wanna know
what is real
I wanna know everything, everything
[Chorus without last line]
[Chorus]
I'm
in love with you
Cuz i'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
"Freak Out"
Try to tell me what I shouldn't do
You should know by now,
I
won't listen to you
Walk around with my hands up in the air
Cause I don't care
Cause I'm alright, I'm fine
Just
freak out, let it go
I'm gonna live my life
I can't ever run and hide
I won't compromise
Cause I'll never know
I'm
gonna close my eyes
I can't watch the time go by
I won't keep it inside
Freak out, let it go
Just freak out, let
it go
You don't always have to do everything right
Stand up for yourself
And put up a fight
walk around with
your hands up in the air
Like you don't care
Cause I'm alright, I'm fine
Just freak out, let it go
I'm
gonna live my life
I can't ever run and hide
I won't compromise
Cause I'll never know
I'm gonna close my eyes
I
can't watch the time go by
I won't keep it inside
Freak out, let it go
On my own
Let it go
Yeah, yeah,
yeah
Just let me live my life
I can't ever run and hide
I won't compromise
Cause I'll never know
I'm
gonna close my eyes
I can't watch the time go by
I won't keep it inside
Freak out, let it go
Gonna freak out,
let it go
Gonna freak out, let it go

"I Always Get What I Want"
[Bonus track]
Every now and then
we all want something
Even if there's no way of gettin' it
If i stomp my feet could that make me
Be the way around
it, could I get myself around it
Get me what I want
Everything I don't got
Get me what I want
Cause Im a big
shot
Don't wanna always have to be so nice
Don't wanna hear you say well thats just life
I dry out when I open
my mouth
I make my way around it, make my way around it
Get me what I want
Everything I don't got
Get me what
I want
Cause Im a big shot
So give me what I want
I always get what I want
You don't want to see me when
I
don't get what I want
Thats not what you want
I'm not about to take no for an answer
no
If I tell you I cant
I'm still gonna go
I did it all by myself
I found my way around it
Get me what I want
Everything I don't
got
Get me what I want
Cause Im a big shot
So give me what I want
I always get what I want
Don't want to see
me when
I don't get what I want
Thats not what you want
It's not to lovely
It could start to get ugly
It
really bugs me
If I don't get my way
Get me what I want
Everything I don't got
Get me what I want
Cause
Im a big shot
So give me what I want
I always get what I want
Don't want to see me when
I don't get what I want
Thats
