SOMETHING TO SOMEONE
They say something I don't wanna hear
Ringin' like a shotgun in my ear
But they don't know what I'm really aimin' for
Gonna leave a mark on society
Faster and faster my whole situation
Fallin' apart, crossin' my heart
And I hope to live
But something has to give
Coz I just wanna be something
I just wanna be someone
Someone who stands out in the crowd
Mother would be proud
Something to someone, yeah
These days gettin' shorter by the year
Tickin' like a time bomb loud and clear
Faster and faster the whole situation
Fallin' apart, straight from the heart
Then I sing my song
And I'll prove them wrong
Coz I just wanna be something
I just wanna be someone
Someone who stands out in the crowd
Mother would be proud
Something to someone
Faster and faster my own situation
Rollin' along, provin' you wrong
And you can't believe
What you see when you're lookin' at me...
I just wanna be something
I just wanna be someone
Someone who stands out in the crowd
Mother would be proud
Something to someone
I just wanna be something
I just wanna be someone
Someone who stands out in the crowd
Mother would be proud
Something to someone, yeah
Somethin' to someone
Somethin' to someone, yeah
THE LAST TIME AGAIN
I don't wanna be an asshole anymore
Sick and tired of all the promises that I make to you
And I break to you
And I know you think you've heard it all before
Something tells me that you think I'm stupid when I say to you
That what I say is true
Too much lyin', too little tryin'
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again
Well I don't wanna be redundant anymore
Skippin' like a broken record you can play again
But I'll do it all again
Put it behind me, then you rewind me
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again
Once again
I must have been
Tryin' to wash away the sin
Coz I wake up
Bathroom floor
I won't do this anymore
...starting tomorrow
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again
This time is gonna be the last time
The last time again
ADDICTED
She calls me up, says she's comin' over
So I run home, ooh
Just to wait around
Sh-sh-sh-she calls me names
Then we play some mind games
And I don't know, ooh
But I think I like it
Now she's the only one who blocks my number
And she's the only one I call
(Yeah, oh yeah)
What's wrong with me?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
I'm so addicted to you... and you're such a dick to me
She flies me out, got a big surprise planned
In Chicago, ooh

She says she's been a ho, had to let me know
On the Jerry Springer Show
(Yeah, oh yeah)
What's wrong with me?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
I'm so addicted to you... and you're such a dick to me

What's wrong with me?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
Why can't I see?
(Yeah, oh yeah)
I'm so addicted to you... and you're such a dick to me
She calls and I come runnin' back
I call, she never calls me back
What's wrong with me?
I'm so addicted to you... and you're such a dick to me
LIPSTICK AND BRUISES
You kiss me on the way up
Kick me when I fall down
Under the radar
Stick me in the lost and found
Lipstick and bruises
Up and down
This is what you always wanted
It's what you asked for
This is what you always wanted
And now you want more
Now these are all your new friends
Baby, you're a rock star now
Runnin' with the devil
Kiss me when the lights go down
Lipstick and bruises
Up and down
This is what you always wanted
It's what you asked for
This is what you always wanted
And now you want more
Kiss me when the lights go down
Lipstick and bruises
Up and down
This is what you always wanted
It's what you asked for
This is what you always wanted
And now you want more
And now you want more
And now you want more
It's what you wanted
It's what you needed
And now you want more
Yeah...
EVERYTHING'S COOL
I hit the city by 3
And the bottle by 4
Im thinkin about the shit that I pulled the night before
And by the party at midnight everything is cool again
Coz you'll be back with me then
I'll be back with you then
I'm carryin the weight
The weight of the world
That doesnt wanna wait for me
It spins me all around
And then it spits me out
Recycled like a christmas tree
You picked me up when no one would
Convince me baby its all good
You're doing it again, the way you always could
And now everything is understood
I never had a girl like this
I hit the city by 3
And the bottle by 4
Im thinkin about the shit that I pulled the night before
And by the party at midnight everything is cool again
Coz you'll be back with me then
The walls are closing in, it's closing time again
I see it through my champagne glasses
Terrified of how the time is flyin now
At least we're sittin in first class
Never wanna be like them
I hit the city by 3
And the bottle by 4
Im thinkin about the shit that I pulled the night before
And by the party at midnight everything is cool again
Coz you'll be back with me then
Im carryin the weight of the world
That doesnt wanna wait for me
Im carryin the weight of the world
Your carrying me
I never had a girl like this
I hit the bottle by 6 and another cigarette
Are probably 2 things that I know I should be quittin
By the party at midnight everything is cool by then
Coz you'll be back with me then
Coz you'll be back with me then
Coz you'll be back with me then
HAPPY IN THE MEANTIME
It's just another reason why
It all comes down to you and I
Just have another drink
Waste some time with me
We're happy in the meantime
I've gotta make up for losin' time
Coz I've been spinnin' my wheels all night
And I can't wait
Can't hardly wait to see you
Things seem better off now
I think I'm better off now
It's just another reason why
It all comes down to you and I
Just have another drink
Waste some time with me
We're happy in the meantime
I guess the rain's gonna follow me
Coz it's been droppin' in minor D
And I can't wait
Can't hardly wait to see if
Things seem better off now
I think I'm better off now
It's just another reason why
It all comes down to you and I
Just have another drink
Waste some time with me
We're happy in the meantime
Well save a little rain
And wash away the pain

I don't wanna keep you holdin' on
Coz in the morning I'll be gone... so long
It's just another reason why
It all comes down to you and I

DROP D
Got a tattoo, got it colored in with blue
Coz it's a picture of your cold, sad face
And now it's true
We're probably better off apart
And we knew it from the start
That you never wanna stop
Wanting me wanting you, no
Get up I think it's time for you to go
I don't know why you stay or what you're waiting for
I'll get by
As long as you want me
I'll be fine
As long as you need me
As long as you leave me
Got a new shirt
Tryin' to cover up the hurt
Coz I don't ever wanna show you what you did
And now it's done
We're so much better off in bed
But we're fucked up in the head
And we never wanna stop
Wanting more, such a whore, no
Get up and let me watch you dance some more
We both know why you came and what you're looking for
I'll get by
As long as you want me
I'll be fine
As long as you need me
As long as you leave me
Never wanna stop, never wanna stop
Never wanna stop, never wanna stop
I'll get by
As long as you want me
I'll be fine
As long as you need me
As long as you leave me
SUNNY WEATHER
I've got a hundred thousand watts, hundred thousand dollar stereo
Surrounded by speakers but I'm mono as hell
Got a hundred sad songs about the day that you walked out
Coz I'm feeling so down
It's just a bad situation
I wish that I could say that...
I don't care about the sunny weather
Don't care about the sex when we're together
Don't care about nothing if you don't care
Why dont ya...?
I've got a lotta new drugs but I don't know how to use 'em
So I threw 'em in the trash and now my dogs are high as hell
Got a hundred better reasons why you oughta stick around
And I'll never back down
It's just another situation
I can't control it now...
I don't care about the sunny weather
Don't care about the sex when we're together
Don't care about nothing if you don't care
I'd give it all away for you
For just another day with you
What am I gonna do?
I don't care about nothin' (nothin'...)
I don't care about nothin'
I don't care about nothin'
If you don't care
I don't care about the sunny weather
Don't care about the sex when we're together
Don't care about nothing if you're not there
I don't care about the sunny weather
Don't care and man I wish I never met her
Don't care about nothin' if you don't care
NEXT TIME AROUND
Well I'm dreaming 'bout a Cadillac
And a girl that I used to have
But I know that I could never go back
To the day we took a photograph
That I'm holdin' in my hand
I can't believe I messed it up so bad
If I get another chance
I'd never waste it yeah
I swear I'll be a better man
And I'll tell you right now
We'll make it up next time around
Yeah
I'll pick you up and never put you down
Next time around
Yeah
I'll lift you up and never let you down
Next time around
Now I'm thinkin' bout the good times
All the friends that I used to know
And they always said they'd have my back
But now I'm flyin' solo
All alone again I stand
I can't believe I messed it so bad
If I had another chance
I'd never waste it yeah
I'll try and be a better man
And I'll tell you right now
We'll make it up next time around
Yeah
I'll pick you up and never put you down
Next time around
Yeah
I'll lift you up and never let you down
Next time around
And I'll tell you right now

Next time around
Yeah, yeah

Next time around...
SLIP
I shoulda called but it was late and you were sleeping, my dear
I would hate for you to hear what I was putting you through
I'm tryin' hard to be the man I know that you think I am
I'm really glad you weren't there but now I wish you were here
Coz we're so wonderful
And so untouchable
And just when I thought it was under control
Everything just starts to...
The pillow burns I toss & turn from all of the things I say
You should've known better than to ever listen to me
Coz we're so wonderful
And so untouchable
And just when I thought it was under control
Everything just starts to...
Slip
Right through my fingers
Finding it's way to the tips
Well I'll try and forget
But all that I taste is your lips
Cryin' and kissin' me...
We're so wonderful
And so untouchable
You're the biggest part of me
We're so wonderful
And so untouchable
And just when I thought it was under control
Everything...
Everything...
Slip
Right through my fingers
Finding it's way to the tips
Well I'll try and forget
But all that I taste is your lips
Cryin' and kissin' me...
Slip
Right through my fingers
Finding it's way to the tips
Well I'll try and forget
But all that I taste is your lips
Cryin' and kissin' me...
SHE COMES
Common sense
Goes out the window like a cigarette
I take a hit again
When all her friends
They talk about me in a past tense
I take the hit again
She walks in in the middle of the night
Like we're good to go
All screwed up but it just feels right
And I don't wanna know where you go
Or how we went wrong
And when I think I can't go on
She comes and she comes
But when she goes she always takes away the best of me
She comes and she comes
And when she's done I'm left with nothin' but the rest of me
Ignorance
My only explanation for this mess
I think about it when
We're on the fence
Between what is and what it should've been
I take the hit again
She walks in in the middle of the night
Like we're good to go
All screwed up but it just feels right
And I don't wanna know where you go
Or how we went wrong
And when I think I can't go on
She comes and she comes
But when she goes she always takes away the best of me
She comes and she comes
And when she's done I'm left with nothin' but the rest of me
Whatever she does, I always come undone
She comes and she comes
But when she goes she always takes away the best of me
She comes and she comes
And when she's done I'm left with nothin' but the rest of me
Whatever she does, I always come undone...
I always come undone
LIVE FOR THIS
I've been fallin' apart at the seams
But it's not as it seems
Broken pieces around at my feet
That I dance on
In my darkest day
In my darkest day I can find you
We've come all this way
And I'm still runnin' after it
Yeah
I, I, live for this
I, I, I'd trade it for nothin'
I've been waiting for someone like you
To be waiting for me
This is more than I ever dreamed
And I dream on
I wish I could stay
I wish I could stay right beside you
We've come all this way
And I'm still lookin' after you
I, I, live for this
I, I, I'd trade it for nothin'
In my darkest day
In my darkest day
I can find you
We've come all this way
And I'm still runnin' after it
Yeah
I, I, live for this I, I... I'd trade it for nothin
I, I, live for this
I, I, I'd trade it for nothin'
OVER MY HEAD
I'm in over my head
They wanna try and build me up
So they can tear me down
I wish that I could be back there
But I'm writing here right now
They've taken everything that I've had to give and
They say it's over but man I'm still here livin
I don't know what to do, I think that maybe
I'm in over my head
Stuck in the red
Somethin they said
Makes me think that I'm in over my head
Over my head, over my head
I've got to get away from here
And it couldn't be too soon
Coz I see the stars are here with me
Like rockets to the moon
You take me everywhere that I've never been and
Show me the meaning of what life had to give and
I don't know what to say, I think that maybe
I'm in over my head
Lyin in her bed
Somethin she said
It makes me think that I'm in over my head
Over my head, over my head
They've taken everything that I've had to give and
They say it's over but man I'm still here livin
I don't know what to do, I think that maybe
I'm in over my head
Stuck in the red
Somethin they said
Makes me think that I'm in over my head
Over my head, over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
CHAIN OF FOOLS (BONUS TRACK)
Chain chain chain,
chain chain chain
Chain chain chain,
Chain of fools
Five long years I thought you were my man
But I found out I'm just a link in your chain
You got me where you want me
I ain't nothing but your fool
You treated me mean oh you treated me cruel
CHORUS
Every chain has got a weak link
I might be weak child, but I'll give you strength
You told me to leave you alone
My father said come on home
My doctor said take it easy
Whole bunch of lovin' is much too strong
I'm added to your ...
CHORUS
One of these mornings the chain is gonna break
But up until then, yeah, I'm gonna take all I can take
CHORUS
