Perspective 02:07
Hate to admit that it’s true but I’m infatuated with you I’ve tried to act like I really don’t care I always look away when I’d really rather stare Cause heaven forbid that you should know I just can’t let this side of me show I’m too old to be acting this obsessive Why’s it so hard to keep these things in perspective? Like we’ve never had a word and you don’t know my name Big deal if you did – it’s still be the same Cause you’re a them the special they and I’m not in this crowd You’d never take me serious – I know that’s not allowed But when I think about you goodbye practicality Suddenly I just don’t understand about reality I hope it’s not going to stay like this When you’re around I’m not myself And I don’t understand why you do this to me When I’m so cool with everyone else I’m trying to keep things in perspective I’m trying not to be too obsessive But when I think about you goodbye practicality Suddenly I just don’t understand about reality To hell with the odds and how it's always been I won’t be realistic and I won’t give in I’m trying to keep things in perspective I’m trying not to be too obsessive But when I think about you goodbye practicality Suddenly I just don’t understand about reality, reality, reality

I hate lying to Mom because I know it’s wrong But whenever I ask to go out All we do it scream and shout My Mom, she doesn’t agree with me I just, I wanna be free She always says no, but I gotta go So now I tell her I’m going to Betsy’s House and that’s how I get out I get out I hate lying to Mom but it really isn’t so wrong When she makes me do it – she drives me to it So – why should I feel so bad? I‘m out to night and I should be glad But I feel guilty as hell and she’ll be able to tell But whenever I ask to go out All we do it scream and shout My Mom, she doesn’t agree with me I just, I wanna be free She always says no, but I gotta go So now I tell her I’m going to Betsy’s House And that’s how I get out I get out I hate lying to Mom because I know it’s wrong

WELL – YOU’RE A SAD LITTLE DOG CAN I KICK YOU AGAIN I CERTAINLY WAS CLEVER GETTING YOU FOR A FRIEND The best of both worlds I have My cake and eat it too There were a few rough spots Now everything is smooth I’m looking out for myself It’s the way to survive If you’re oversensitive It’s hard to get by But you can’t have everything Or someone has to lose It’s nothing personal But I don’t like being used WELL – YOU’RE A SAD LITTLE DOG CAN I KICK YOU AGAIN I CERTAINLY WAS CLEVER GETTING YOU FOR A FRIEND I know you don’t understand It’s how you’ve always been But it hurts when I’m around you And I do have other friends WELL – YOU’RE A SAD LITTLE DOG CAN I KICK YOU AGAIN I CERTAINLY WAS CLEVER GETTING YOU FOR A FRIEND

Don’t look too close don’t see too good You’ll only see more than you should Don’t wonder why they said those things Don’t analyze anything Everyone wants something from you Nothing’s for free Why don’t I know Anyone like me?

I Don't Know 03:37
He told me he wanted to see me again But that’s a mistake I won’t repeat with him He said it wasn’t really as bad as it seemed And isn’t he a part of my dreams? YES, NO, I DON’T KNOW I DON’T KNOW WE TRIED IT ONCE BEFORE AND I STILL LOVE HIM EVEN THOUGH I DON’T KNOW I said I couldn’t take anymore of his lies And he promised me things I never used to buy But he’s got a charm that he uses way too well And when he’s sincere I can’t tell YES, NO, I DON’T KNOW I DON’T KNOW WE TRIED IT ONCE BEFORE AND I STILL LOVE HIM EVEN THOUGH I DON’T KNOW Look at me, I’m here with him tonight Even though I still don’t know what’s right But I’m not alone in my thoughts for once at least I’m going to hold on to this little peace YES, NO, I DON’T KNOW I DON’T KNOW WE TRIED IT ONCE BEFORE AND I STILL LOVE HIM EVEN THOUGH I DON’T KNOW

You and Dave 02:36
I don’t understand – you and Dave exchanged looks He rolled his eyes and you looked so irritated You tried to avoid her I saw you slip away So did she and that’s why you didn’t make it I have to hand it to you – you took it well If you were suffering, I couldn’t tell Then I saw you sitting close – closer than you should have been Laughing and talking and acting like more than friends I can’t believe you put her in your car If you did it for affect you went way to far I thought more of you – I don’t know why You only get hurt when you idealize I shouldn’t have expected so much from you But I did I cant help it I still do too I don’t understand – you and Dave exchanged looks He rolled his eye and you looked so irritated You tried to avoid her I saw you slip away So did she and that’s why you didn’t make it Then I saw you sitting close – closer than you should have been Laughing and talking and acting like more than friends I can’t believe you put her in your car If you did it for affect you went way to far I shouldn’t have expected so much from you But I did I cant help it I still do too You tried to avoid her I saw you slip away So did she and that’s why you didn’t make it

Prop 2 01:50
What were we expecting? That was the last thing on our minds You could tell we weren’t excited We’ve done that kind of time Of course you didn’t know That’s why we feel bad for you We really do care We’d like to do something for you But we can’t do that it’s out of the question You can’t understand without being in this position But the shoe’s not on the other foot Nor will it ever be You may think you understand But you guys will never see It happened to us once before Now we don’t see them anymore We won’t let this happen again You said you were my best friend It’s one of those things that can’t work out We both wanted it to We want you to know we still feel the same about you

4th Song 01:36
No time to think Too much to do But that’s OK I can’t think about you No time to feel When you drive that far It’s OK that way It doesn’t seem so hard I CAN’T REMEMBER YOUR FACE ANYMORE AND I CAN’T REMEMBER YOUR VOICE LITTLE THINGS NOT ANYTHING THANK GOD SINCE I HAVE NO CHOICE Nothing new it happens everyday Everyone says I’ll get over you Just a time factor you have to get fast Be analytical and it goes by fast I CAN’T REMEMBER YOUR FACE ANYMORE AND I CAN’T REMEMBER YOUR VOICE LITTLE THINGS NOT ANYTHING THANK GOD SINCE I HAVE NO CHOICE

Hello 02:48
Hello are you in there? Sometimes it’s hard to tell You look like you always do, You always look well But that doesn’t mean a thing You won’t react to anything You’ve got a blank stare A mask that’s mighty fine You must have a reason But I know you’re aware of everything that goes by Your face may be closed but you’ve got an eagle eye Enigmatic understated Cool slate stone You’ve got great credentials so why are you are you Are you alone? Hello are you in there? Sometimes it’s hard to tell You look like you always do, You always look well But I know you’re aware of everything that goes by Your face may be closed but you’ve got an eagle eye Enigmatic, understated Cool slate stone You’ve got great credentials so why are you are you Are you alone?

I can’t wait til I laugh about it And think about it like one of things It’s so had to get past it now It’s like one of those terrible dreams You want to talk but who can you tell Nobody wants to hear when you fail Ask them Feel sorry but you don’t see them anymore GET TOUGH GROW UP KEEP IT TO YOURSELF I’VE GOT PROBLEMS OF MY OWN AND I JUST CAN’T HELP I CAN’T HELP So I’m waiting for the 88 and I can’t help big late No one would even believe It I don’t know what I’m gonna say iI’m gonna say I can’t wait til I laugh about it And think about it like one of things It’s so had to get past it now It’s like one of those terrible dreams You want to talk but who can you tell Nobody wants to hear when you fail Ask them T They feel sorry but you don’t see them anymore GET TOUGH GROW UP KEEP IT TO YOURSELF I’VE GOT PROBLEMS OF MY OWN AND I JUST CAN’T HELP I CAN’T HELP So I won’t tell them – I’ll manage somehow I just wish I could laugh about it now THIRD SONG You walk around with that don’t give a shit air But You just don’t care You’re not in danger of impressing anyone Hell will freeze before you need someone Keep it up while it’s still affordable x2 It won’t be lasting long Before it’s too late you’d better give them a break You’ll find that you’re not so strong You don’t like much of what you see No one does, that’s reality We make do and we don’t wait We always settle for less So join the world, get a girl and forget about the rest I had ideals and standards that I set A lot of high ones that no one ever met But other people have better things to do They’re not going to hold their breath for you Keep it up while it’s still affordable x2 It won’t be lasting long Before it’s too late you’d better give them a break You’ll find that you’re not so strong
