I've been getting fed up. Oh, so sick of this big fake smile. When they say, "You with your juvenile noise, Time to grow up, you're in denial." If I was starving for fame, to get my name in big bright lights, I'd go charter a small plane and fall out of the sky. And you've been licking your red lips so long waiting just for this. My hands have been keeping my mouth shut From everything spilling out. Despite all the shame I've already caused, Get ready for more. I'm numb to the pain that rattles my bones. Yeah, I have felt this before. And I worry that you're on to me. I'm your prey, your own casualty. It's funny how fate saves us in ways so unpredictable. And in the end, you will never get back what you put in. Despite all the shame I've already caused, Get ready for war. I'm numb to the pain that rattles my bones. Yeah, I have felt this before. Three, Four (EP), 2005 SUDDENLY Suddenly, I just found myself waiting for the phone to ring And I'm hiding out simply 'cuz it's scaring me Not relying on the people that I ought to be Another month or two of everybody testing me And it's time. So much to do, I'll be lucky just to open up this parachute As we're falling closer I'll be holding onto you Wake me up when it is over if I get through And all the things to you I promised will be coming soon And it's time. I'm tired of writing on the back of these postcards Describing everything that you've missed so far I'm kicking this bad habit on my own I'm not surprised, that it's never obvious to all the other guys When I'm with you I'm invisible, it's my disguise Everybody get behind me, you can form a line Just hope you're comfortable standing there your whole life. NOT ON MY WATCH So what the hell do we know? Our response is much too slow and questions linger still Everybody's waiting for you to come back laughing After f**ing with us all Should I have been easier on you? After you suffered more than anyone Never did I under-estimate you, I never did once I wish there was a reason for taking one from me Boy, you put up one good fight Everybody's praying You're somewhere up there sailing over us tonight I never did once, not on my watch WINDSHIELD Any way, I can help you through the day I for one, know the sun, so I'll tell him to stay out This letter grade, you got an "A", congratulate yourself kid Would I have known that today's your birthday? I've been sitting here all day thinking that today's your worst day We'll celebrate and stay up late, and watch our favorite TV show Would you know, it was cancelled yesterday We'll get that guy, who threw that rock into my windshield I can only ask why he wouldn't give a sh** about how he thinks I'd feel And no one can describe, as patient as I am, how bad I want this deal So we'll get that guy who threw that rock into my windshield Yesterday all across the state, on the news they showed your face And your name, your hiding place, and I'm afraid it's too late By the way, at the bottom of the page On the line, I signed your name and your whole life away WAIT FOR ME THERE I don't mind if you sit beside me in everything we do To some, it's nothing new Would you wait for me there - You said you would so Would you wait for me there - I thought that I could In a way it's official, nothing's really changing at all But they'll miss her, of course they will If you recall what I asked you in summertime And if you don't know it already, I've got something in mind. ON ELVIRA STREET What an awful start to this New Year for us all We're picking up the pieces of our hearts that broke apart So here's to all your courage and your strength for fighting hard For everybody loves you, you're the namesake in our hearts And it's gonna be fine over time Memories of climbing trees on Elvira Street Sinking our feet into the sand at Redondo Beach And though our one & only is gone We need you to keep carrying on Cause you're the one we look up to I won't stop praying for you And it's gonna be fine over time
