It's Simple

Bite my tongue until it bleeds
so I can tell if this is real
I'll keep my eyes shut on the image of your face
put that picture up in mental space
If it's a dream, just a dream
don't let me know
I'll keep you close, keep you close
So I don't have to go
years of abuse have left me feeling numb
years of mistakes have left me feeling dumb
I love to feel, to feel your lips on mine
It gives me chills, gives me chills, every single time
It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval
It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval
And I for one, I could not live with your refusal
Won't you please, Come and lay with me...tonight
They'll read it in the papers, the story of us
Young hearted heroes, who refused to give up
We'll leave the critics who call it a fad
if they don't like our style then that's just too bad
I love to feel your fingers brush my skin
I love to feel your feel on my skin
It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval
It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval
And I for one, I could not live with your refusal
Won't you please, Come and lay with me...tonight
I could be the man you grow old with
don't know if you've ever been told this
But we could be their dream
We could be their everything
It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval
It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval
And I for one, I could not live with your refusal
Won't you please, Come and lay with me...tonight

Well you're selfish,impatient, and insecure
I know it sounds harsh, but I love you just the way you are
In fact those are a few things, I like about you
and if I'm wrong, you can tell me it's not true
That you're selfish, in the way you stole my heart
You ripped it out of my chest,kept it to yourself
and it's become clear, that there's noone else
but you can't feel
feel it beating for you
(chorus)
I'm right here,and I'm standing,staring at the ground
And I'm thinking, of the words,the perfect words to say
on the way to your house, with some flowers
we could talk all day or just a few hours
But then I think to myself
that this is really just a bad idea
Ya, this is really just a bad idea
Anyways...
I think your impatient, in your waiting for love
waiting for a sign, to come from above
he might look like an angel, but he doesn't love you
and with your head in the clouds, you can't see what's in front of you
I'm right here,and I'm standing,staring at the ground
And I'm thinking, of the words,the perfect words to say
on the way to your house, with some flowers
we could talk all day or just a few hours
But then I think to myself
that this is really just a bad idea
Ya, this is really just a bad idea
And you don't need to be insecure
with your beautiful smile and beautiful eyes
and when I have the chance to see them
I'll take my time
I'm right here,and I'm standing,staring at the ground
And I'm thinking, of the words,the perfect words to say
and I'm running down your street, through
parking lots and open lawns
I'll be happy, just to see you
your face appearing as the dawn
And then I'll think to myself
that this is really just a bad idea
Ya, this really just a bad idea
but it just might work...

Romeo Vs Juliet

She said it was over / Didn't wanna believe her
She said that we could still be friends / Didn't wanna leave her
And so she looked him in the eyes
She did her best trying not to cry
She said / It's okay / She said / It's alright
Two weeks later / and we're both in hell
I told your boyfriend that I / hope you're doing well
I couldn't get angry / I couldn't feel sad
All of my emotions / have left me for dead
Just thought you oughtta know
I saw this comin' from a mile away
Just thought you oughtta know
That I don't give a damn either way
Two weeks later / here we are again
you said / I feel sorry for you
Let's be more than friends
And so she looked him in the eyes
She did her best trying to lie
She said / It's okay / She said / It's alright
She said / It's okay / It's alright/ Ya / It's gonna be just fine
Just thought you oughtta know
I saw this comin' from a mile away
Just thought you oughtta know
That I don't give a damn either way
And it's too bad if he didn't show
But I don't give a damn either way
Say that you want this / but I'll never take you back
Say you never loved him / It was always me
You say love is forever / love is forever
You say love is forever / But I'll never take you back

The Man You Wanted

I've always got these burning questions
but you never have the answers
why can't things just go my way
I saw you with him just the other day
I wouldn't mind standing out of the way
unless of course you asked me to stay
I'm sorry that I
cannot be the
man
you wanted me to be
(I'm sorry)
You're supposed to fight
for the one you love
The room is filling up with silence
and my hands are filling up my pockets
Can't you see I'm dying here
I want you to remember
all the times we spent together
but it's time to call it quits
I'm sorry that I
cannot be the
man
you wanted me to be
(I'm sorry)
You're supposed to fight
for the one you love
He won't love you like I love you
No one ever will
and when he leaves you
wanting more,just know
I'm always here for you
I promise that I'll
be the man that
you
wanted me to be
(I promise)
You're supposed to fight
for the one you love

My Angel

you are the one
that shines above
the sound of your voice
is just too much
for my heart
to take
for my heart
to break
take it in your hands
an rip it off the wall
bleedin' from my chest again
just another mess to clean
wrap me in your bandages
you make everything better
i'm dreaming of your eyes
they hypnotize me
so forget
the worst
i know it hurts
but, don't
forget me
can you see me out your window
passing by to say hello again
but we both know
a kiss from you
is all i need
put my lips up to your window screen
i'm dreaming of your eyes
they hypnotize me
so forget
the worst
I know it hurts
but, don't
forget me
i'm looking
in your eyes
as we lay
in your bed
and we're watching
the stars go by
i need you
by my side

You swore you'd never love anyone else
this was the vow you spoke but noone heard
and now your all alone in the dark
spaces of your room
"i must admit i've fallen in love with the tears and the blood
and that deeper shade of red..."
we both know this isn't the solution
but sometimes it feels like pain is the only friend
and this is what they say
that love is always pain (no)
love is love
until it...
fades away
a heart with hunger pains
This is the romance you wanted
and this is what you got instead
a real bad case of heartache
and a soul that fills with lead
and so the story goes
and so the story's told
He left him for another
He left him alone
some would say it never should have started
but what do they know?
love is love
until it...
fades away
a heart with hunger pains
This is the romance you wanted
Bastard cupid has struck again
quiver and arrows in hand
and hes aiming for your head
This is the romance you wanted
and this is the crap you got instead
a real bad case of heartache
and a soul that fills with lead

It doesn't matter whether it's by car or plane
you take this exit and things will never be the same
and everywhere you go,everybody seems to know
what you've done,
Baby don't you know, you can't always run
I'm not gonna chase you this time
I'm all out of stupid one lines
Pack my bags it's time to move on
I'm giving up / Time to get gone
It's time to run

These Days There's Fire

Its Monday morning and she tells me that we cant be together
Its Tuesday morning and I can see she means it now more than ever
On Wednesday morning hope is rising with the sun
By Thursday evening I can tell my luck is done
On Friday night I'm so excited to see her
But on Saturday we sat in different ends of the theater
And I can't stand it, but I have to live with this
When it rained in August, I was stung and I was wet from your visit
Dead September, I guess I had my chance but I missed it
Lonely October, I decided I would leave you in the past
Scared in November, afraid I spoke a little too fast
Ending December, and you can hardly speak to me
In January we started all over again
And I can't stand it, but I have to live with this
It's been two years now, and I wish you'd forgiven me
You say you'll never, but please don't stop talking to me
And you're not over, the pain that I caused and that's fine
And you're not over me, but the feelings will die in due time
You know I'd do anything, anything to make you mine
These days there's fire, and it's burning the doubt in my mind
