BLACK AND WHITE
--------------------------
BLACK AND WHITE A SILVER FRAME YOUR SMILE IS BEAUTIFUL - BUT I PUT IT AWAY WITH A BOX OF YOUR THINGS, TODAY IS GREY
----
WHERE DO I GO , WHERE DO I GO WHEN I MISS YOU
WHERE DO I GO
----
SO I KISS YOU GOODBYE AND YOU DRIVE AWAY, IM LOSING YOU - THEN I FALL TO MY KNEES CAUSE IM WONDERING HOW I'LL LIVE WITHOUT YOU
----
WHERE DO I GO, WHERE DO I GO WHEN I MISS YOU
WHERE DO I GO
----
ALL I WANTED WAS YOU
I GUESS I WASNT ENOUGH FOR YOU
NOW YOUR GONE
NOW YOUR GONE
----
WHERE DO I GO, WHERE DO I GO WHEN I MISS YOU
WHERE DO I GO

-----------------------------------------------------

Run Away
-----------
god I love the way that you look tonight
silhouetted in the stars
and I want you, well I want you so bad
I can hardly breath
--------------------
but I’ll just run away
--------------------
so I’m walking home from your place
how I wish that I could stay
so many things I want to tell you
I want to wake up next to you
but I never will
----------------------
so I’ll just run away
----------------------
I think that you know that I’m after you tonight
I and I want you, I want you so bad
----------------------
so I’ll just run away

--------------------------------------------------

In my head
-------------
today I’m going to lock myself in my room
I’m going to listen to the records that remind me of you
remind me of you - well they all do
I’m shipbuilding when I should be picking up the pieces
so I can live my life when it all leads back to you
------------------------
and sometimes I feel like you are the only one
who can make me feel this way
-------------------------
tonight I’m going to drive around this grey town
I’m going to look for all the places and try to forget
try to forget all about you
and I cant sleep cause I’m dreaming of a better life
that I’m not living in and it hurts
it hurts to be this way
--------------------------
and sometimes I feel like you are the only one
who can make me feel this way
--------------------------
but it's in my head
there are things that you'll never know about me
its in my head
there are things that you'll never know
--------------------------
I should have realized that your not the only one for me
I should have opened my eyes
I should have let myself see
--------------------------
and sometimes I feel like you are the only one
who can make me feel this way
--------------------------
but it's in my head
there are things that you'll never know about me
its in my head
there are things that you'll never know
--------------------------

---------------------------------------------------

Do You Ever

I really want to tell my heart to shut down
Not the part that beats but the part that hurts
I want to put it all up on the table
I've got to tell you what I want
-----
I really want to tell myself to forget all the things that broke my heart
I want to tell myself to let go, and fall
-----
Do you ever think about me - anytime
Do you ever think that I could be the one you want
If I tell you what I’m feeling, I'm afraid of what you'll say
But I guess I’m going to tell you - anyway
-----
So I'm looking at the buildings in Manhattan
And for the first time they seem small
So I pick up my phone and I stare at your name
But I wish I had the guts to call
-----
I really want to tell myself to forget all the things that broke my heart
I want to tell myself to let go, and fall
-----
Do you ever think about me - anytime
Do you ever think that I could be the one you want
If I tell you what I’m feeling, I'm afraid of what you'll say
But I guess I’m going to tell you - anyway
-----
I really want to tell myself to forget all the things that broke my heart
I want to tell myself to let go, and fall
-----
Do you ever think about me - anytime
Do you ever think that I could be the one you want
If I tell you what I’m feeling, I'm afraid of what you'll say
But I guess I’m going to tell you - anyway
-----

Home from Hollywood

So I’m packing my bags for what seems like the hundredth time
You’re screaming at me and I’m breaking softly tonight
I’ve got a big dream and I guess I am afraid
All alone in this city where all I have is what I am

All I wanted to say was that I love you just the way you are
And I just wish that you could say that and mean it too

So I guess I have learned that money will never keep me satisfied
If I get everything I want there is so much I’ll have to sacrifice
So here I am at the bottom and god it feels so good
Just singing a song has never felt so pure

All I wanted to say was that I love you just the way you are
And I just wish that you could say that and mean it too

Some day I will buy you a big house any where you want
But it will act as my middle finger for the @#%$ you said that night

When all I wanted to say was that I love you just the way you are
And I just wish that you could say that and mean it too

----------------------------------------------

Seven days

Seven day or fifteen years
How long will it take to be gone from here?

Because you, you got me where it hurts
You, you got me where it hurts

So I’m scared as hell of being all alone
Got nobody here and I’m all alone

Because you, you got me where it hurts
You, you got me where it hurts

So I’m singing a sad song, because that’s who I am
But I wish it was a happy song, a happy song
Romeo and Juliet both died at the end of the show
So leave me, just leave me alone

Because you, you got me where it hurts
You, you got me where it hurts

-----------------------------------------------

Away from me

What do you want from me?
Because I am spread to thin
And I can’t give you what you need
Because I’m trying to be, I want to be free

If I were you I’d run from me
I’d run from me
I’d run away from me
Away from me

So I’m sorry I hurt you again
But what you wanted just was never me
And what you see is not always what you get
So I’m sorry it’s not you but it was never me

If I were you I’d run from me
I’d run from me
I’d run away from me
Away from me

And if it’s any consolation, I have never been this way
But I’m scared and I’m damaged, love left me this way

If I were you I’d run from me
I’d run from me
I’d run away from me
Away from me

-------------------------------------------------

Letter I’ll never send

So I’m starting over on a letter I’ll never send
It’s about you, but it’s all about me too

Please don’t change the way you are
I want you to know you are everything I could ask for
And you, you are all I need
But I just don’t think that I could be that for you

So if I said I love you, would you change your mind?
Or would you say that I’m to far away
If I said I love you, and I wanted to stay
But staying for me I saying I love you from far away

Please don’t change the way you are
I want you to know you are everything I could ask for
And you, you are all I need
But I just don’t think that I could be that for you

---------------------------------------------------

London stars

London you’re so beautiful, I think that I’m falling for you
It’s the way that you smile when I’m around
It’s the way that you laugh that makes my heart fall

I’m coming soon, if you will be there
I just came to see you, so tell me that you’ll be there

Because the stars here London, they’ve got me thinking of you
And I’m going crazy, because I haven’t found the words to tell you
And I’d spend my whole life trying to be the man I need to be for you
For you

So it’s six o clock, a phone call on a Friday
And I realize that I’d trade my stars for the stars in your eyes
London I don’t want to say the wrong thing
So I won’t say anything tonight

I’m coming soon, if you will be there
I just came to see you, so tell me that you’ll be there

Because the stars here London, they’ve got me thinking of you
And I’m going crazy, because I haven’t found the words to tell you
And I’d spend my whole life trying to be the man I need to be for you
For you

---------------------------------------------------

Hemingway life

My life is like a Hemingway novel, a whiskey and soda
Or a bottle of wine, just take me from reality
My life is like a Hemingway novel. God I feel so lost
I’m always chasing the girl that seems so far away

So far away

My life is like a black and white movie, the kind you watch on Christmas Eve
You know the one that reminds you of all the woman that you have loved
My life is like a black and white movie, you say it’s so cool because there’s no color
But back then they would chose color if they could

If they could

My life is like an old beat up record, it don’t sound so pretty anymore
But there is something about that lo-fi sound that reminds you of her
My life is like an old beat up record, it has been so many places
It has got history, but its scratches show

Its scratches show

-------------------------------------------

I will never stop

My senses are fading; I’m all alone in this big car
While the rest of the world is at home
This Tennessee highway is lasting forever
Just truck stops, Nashville and rain

But if this is the way it will be for the rest of my life
The rest of my life
I will never stop

So I’ve got a lonely heart, but I guess you must know that by now
And I miss Texas, I miss my good friends and the girl that stole and broke my heart
I feel like I’ve traded them for hard times, cold nights a four motel walls that change but never really change

But if this is the way it will be for the rest of my life
The rest of my life
I will never stop

So thank you for listening, listening, listening
Thank you for listening

If this is the way it will be for the rest of my life
The rest of my life
I will never stop

------------------------------------------------

Blue shirt

So we’re in her bed now
She says she wants me to be inside
But I humbly decline
Because I’ve got someone else on my mind

So if you go through Austin
Would you grab my shirt?
You know the blue one I left at her house
Because she said it made her feel safe

Who’s going to make me feel safe?

So we are in her kitchen
And I’m asking for a drink
So she hands me vodka
Because I guess I’m easier that way

So if you go through Austin
Would you grab my shirt?
You know the blue one I left at her house
Because she said it made her feel safe

Who’s going to make me feel safe?

---------------------------------------------

Broken

Imagine I knife, stick it in deep
Imagine a gun, aim it straight for you heart
Imagine rejection time and time again
Imagine the only one who has loved you take it away

Know that you broke me
I feel like I’m on fire
Know that you crushed me
And I’m nothing at all

Imagine a good boy who loses again
Imagine every happy thought I had, just dead
Imagine this love I thought I had, so I gave you everything
Imagine me pale and cold and alone, no singing again

Know that you broke me
I feel like I’m on fire
Know that you crushed me
And I’m nothing at all

So I hope you are happy, I hope that it worked
I hope that you live your life your way and never commit
I hope you can feel every ounce of my pain
And I hope that it kills you to never say I love you again

Know that you broke me
I feel like I’m on fire
Know that you crushed me
And I’m nothing at all

------------------------------------------------

Part of this year

So I’m driving home, it’s 3am
Seattle was warm, I promise I was good
And you are at home, I will be there soon
But you’re not alone and you’re not good

So I wish you were never part of this year

So now I’m back, and you are here
You are down, and doing well
But being down is all you will ever be
Until you realize that’s not all I need

So I wish you were never part of this year

You’re going to California
They are going to teach you to be arty
But that’s ok
I always liked New York City more than L.A.
Anyway

------------------------------------------------

Expectations

I want you to know, that I’m not sorry if I’m not the man you expected me to be
And I want you to know that I never expected anything from you, I want you to know

I’ve got to run straight to, straight to
I’ve got to run straight to what I want

It was a Saturday when you forgot all about me
And I want you to know that I will never forget
And I don’t need you to come pick me up from this crazy world that I am living in
I want you to know

I’ve got to run straight to, straight to
I’ve got to run straight to what I want

Do you know what it feels like, being alone?
Do you know what it feels like to be invisible?
Do you know what it feels like to not have a home?
Because home is where the heart is and my heart is vacant
I want you to know

I’ve got to run straight to, straight to
I’ve got to run straight to what I want

---------------------------------------

Planet

The sky is on fire, the whole world is on fire
It’s telling us that we should leave
So I’ll meet you under ground we don’t need the sun and the stars
What did they ever do for us?

So maybe it’s too late

The devil has moved in to Penn. Ave.
And he will not leave
So you tell yourself to breath but the skies have all turned black and red
And there is no wind to blow the colors away

So maybe it’s too late

------------------------------------------------

Blue Tuesday

It’s 4:30 in the morning
And I can’t close my eyes
I’ve been thinking of you all day
And I can’t close my eyes

Cause another blue Tuesday
Is staring down on me
And why can’t I ever learn to say goodbye
Goodbye

Your soft hair is all around me
And I can feel you next to me
And holding you I feel happy
But I guess that will never be

Cause another blue Tuesday
Is staring down on me
And why can’t I ever learn to say goodbye
Goodbye

Blue Tuesday in my soul

It’s 4:30 in the morning
And I can’t close my eyes

Cause another blue Tuesday
Is staring down on me
And why can’t I ever learn to say goodbye
Goodbye

Blue Tuesday in my soul

------------------------------------------

New York City

Upstairs, hot summer night
And morning will come
So can we just stay up all night?
And I’ll say things I have never told anyone, you know about how I feel

It’s so perfect when I’m staring at you
Man this is perfect when I’m with you

So I’m going to tell you everything
That’s been on my mind for a few years
Since the night I met you
Corduroy jackets and smiles that last so long
Man they stay in my mind

In all of my dreams you always say
That you love me and you are ready
And then I say

If you’ll come, I’ll buy a ticket to New York City
And if you’ll stay, I’ll find a way to make everything perfect

------------------------------------

Heart attack
She is finding out, that I could love her back
I’m not a weekend get away
She might have to back up what she says

She is a heart attack
Hiding behind dark sad eyes
You better watch out watch out watch out
Cause she’ll make you sad
She is a heart attack

So my hearts the kind that breaks
You can hear it in my voice
You won’t pick up your phone
But you will show up at the shows

She is a heart attack
Hiding behind dark sad eyes
You better watch out watch out watch out
Cause she’ll make you sad
She is a heart attack

She is like a fire burning deep inside your heart
You will always think of her, always miss her always look for her in crowds
But she is doing things tonight that you know would break your heat
The things she used to for you, now she’ll do for anybody
Else

She is a heart attack
Hiding behind dark sad eyes
You better watch out watch out watch out
Cause she’ll make you sad
She is a heart attack
