When I'm Gone

We're doing it

I look around me
But all I seem to see
Is people going nowhere
Expecting sympathy

It's like we're going through the motions
Of a scripted destiny
Tell me where's our inspiration
If life won't wait
I guess it's up to me

Whoa!
No, we're not gonna waste another moment in this town
Whoa!
And we won't come back
The world is calling out
Whoa!
We'll leave the past in the past
Gonna find the future
If misery loves company
Well, so long, you'll miss me when I'm gone (ohh...ohh...ohh...)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone (ohh...ohh...ohh...)

Procrastination running circles in my head
While you sit there contemplating
You wound up left for dead (you're left for dead)
Life is what happens while you're busy making your excuses
Another day, another casualty
But that won't happen to me

Whoa!
No, we're not gonna waste another moment in this town
Whoa!
And we won't come back
The world is calling out
Whoa!
We'll leave the past in the past
Gonna find the future
If misery loves company
Well, so long, you'll miss me when I'm gone (ohh...ohh...ohh...)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone (ohh...ohh...ohh...)

You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
When I'm gone

Let's go!

Won't look back
When I say goodbye
I'm gonna leave this a hole behind me
Gonna take what's mine tonight
Cause every wasted day
Becomes a wasted chance
You're gonna wake up feeling sorry
Because life won't wait
I guess it's up to you

Whoa!
No, we're not gonna waste another moment in this town
Whoa!
And we won't come back
The world is calling out
Whoa!
We'll leave the past in the past
Gonna find the future
If misery loves company
Well, so long, you'll miss me when I'm gone (ohh...ohh...ohh...)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone (ohh...ohh...ohh...)

You're gonna miss me when I'm gone (ohh...ohh...ohh...)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone (ohh...ohh...ohh...)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone (ohh...ohh...ohh...)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.




Take My Hand

Sometimes I feel like everybody's got a problem
Sometimes I feel like nobody wants to solve them
I know that people say we're never gonna make it
But I know we're gonna get through this

Close your eyes and please don't let me go
Don't, don't, don't, don't let me go now
Close your eyes, don't let me let you go
Don't, don't, don't ...

Take my hand tonight
Let's not think about tomorrow
Take my hand tonight
We can find some place to go
Cause our hearts are locked forever
And our love will never die
Take my hand tonight one last time

Hey, hey
Hey, hey

The city sleeps and we're lost in the moment
Another kiss as we're lying on the pavement
If they could see us they would tell us that we're crazy
But I know they just don't understand

Close your eyes and please don't let me go
Don't, don't, don't, don't let me go now
Close your eyes, don't let me let you go
Don't, don't, don't ...

Take my hand tonight
Let's not think about tomorrow
Take my hand tonight
We can find some place to go
Cause our hearts are locked forever
And our love will never die
Take my hand tonight one last time

Hey, hey
Hey, hey

If rain drops, the tears keep falling
I see your face and it keeps me going (Hey, hey)
If I get lost in your light's gonna guide me
And I know that you can take me home
You can take me home

Take my hand tonight
Let's not think about tomorrow
Take my hand tonight
We can find some place to go
Cause our hearts are locked forever
And our love will never die
Take my hand tonight one last time

Take my hand tonight
Let's not think about tomorrow
Take my hand tonight
We can find some place to go
Cause our hearts are locked forever
And our love will never die
Take my hand tonight one last time




The End

I've been trying to tell you something but you never understand
I feel like we've been going round in circles
You look at me like I've become a stranger on the street
A skeleton that's hiding in your closet

I see you next to me but still you feel so far away
Where did we go wrong? (Where did we go wrong?)
I guess this is the part where you look at me and say goodbye...

Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end (Whoa...)
Girl, you know, it's not so bad, it's not the end (Whoa...)
You know it's not the end

I've been around the world and I have seen so many things
I can't even tell you where I'm going
But no matter where I'm heading and no matter what I do
Something keeps me coming back to you

I see you next to me but still you feel so far away
Where did we go wrong? (Where did we go wrong?)
I guess this is the part where you look at me and say goodbye...

Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end (Whoa...)
Girl you know, it's not so bad, it's not the end (Whoa...)
You know it's not the end

Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end (Whoa...)
Girl, you know, it's not so bad, it's not the end (Whoa...)
You know it's not the end

What can I do when you're gone?
When it feels so wrong?
What can I say?
To make you wanna stay?
So what can I do?
Don't leave me this way
Cause it feels so wrong
Let's stop all these games
Cause I just can't say goodbye

Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end (Whoa...)
Girl, you know, it's not so bad, it's not the end (Whoa...)
You know it's not the end

Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end (Whoa...)
Girl, you know, it's not so bad, it's not the end (Whoa...)
You know it's not the end




Your Love Is a Lie

I fall asleep by the telephone
It's two o'clock and I'm waiting up alone
Tell me where have you been

I found a note with another name
You blow a kiss but it just don't feel the same
Cuz I can feel that you're gone

I can't bite my tongue forever
While you try to play it cool
You can hide behind your story
But don't take me for a fool

You can tell me that there's nobody else
(but I feel it)
You can tell me that you're home by yourself
(but I see it)
You can look into my eyes and pretend all you want
But I know...I know...
Your love is just a lie! (Lie! Lie!)
It's nothing but a lie! (Lie! Lie!)

You look so innocent
but the guilt in your voice gives you away
Yeah, you know what I mean

How does it feel when you kiss when you know that I trust you?
And do you think about me when he fucks you?
Could you be more obscene? (Be more obscene?)

So don't try to say you're sorry
Or try to make it right
Don't waste your breath because it's too late, it's too late

You can tell me that there nobody else
(but I feel it)
You can tell me that you're home by yourself
(but I see it)
You can look into my eyes and pretend all you want
but I know...I know...
Your love is just a lie! (Lie!)
Lie! (Lie!)
It's nothing but a lie! (Lie!)
Lie! (Lie!)
you're nothing but a lie!

You can tell me that there's nobody else
(but I feel it)
You can tell me that you're home by yourself
(but I see it)
You can look into my eyes and pretend all you want
but I know...I know...
Your love is just a lie!
I know you're nothing but a lie! (Lie!)
Lie! (Lie!)
You're nothing but a lie! (Lie!)
Lie! (Lie!)
Your love is just a lie!




Save You

Take a breath,
I'll pull myself together.
Just another step,
Until I reach the door.
You'll never know,
The way it tears me up inside to see you.

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
I wish that I could tell you something.
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
To take it all away.

Sometimes I wish I could save you.
And there's so many things that,
I want you to know.
I won't give up till it's over.
If it takes you forever,
I want you to know.

When I hear your voice.
It's drowning in the whispers.
You're just skin and bones.
There's nothing left to take.
And no matter what I do,
I can't make you feel better.

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
If only I could find the answer.
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
To help me understand.

Sometimes I wish I could save you.
And there's so many things that,
I want you to know.
I won't give up till it's over.
If it takes you forever,
I want you to know.

That, if you fall,
Stumble down,
I'll pick you up off the ground.
If you loose,
Faith in you,
I'll give you strength to pull through.

Tell me you wont give up.
Cause I'll be waiting.
If you fall, you know,
I'll be there for you.

(oh, oh, oh, oh)
If only I could find the answer.
(oh, oh, oh, oh)
To take it all away.

Sometimes I wish I could save you.
And there's so many things that,
I want you to know.
I won't give up till it's over.
If it takes you forever,
I want you to know.

(oh, oh, oh, oh)
I wish I could save you.
(oh, oh, oh, oh)
I want you to know.
(oh, oh, oh, oh)
I wish I could save you.
(oh, oh, oh, oh)




Generation

(Listen!)
(Ohh...whoa...)
(Whoa...ohh...)

I'm sick of all this waiting
And people telling me what I should be
What if I'm not so crazy?
Maybe you're the one who's wrong, not me
So what you gonna do?
What you gonna say?
When we're standing on top and do it our way
You say we got no future
You're living in the past
So listen up, that's my generation

(hey ho, let's go!)
It's going down tonight
(hey ho, let's go!)
We're gonna do it till we die
(hey ho, let's go!)
'Cause I, I, I got no reason to apologize
That's my generation

(Ohh...whoa...)
(Whoa...ohh...)

I don't need to say I'm sorry
I do what everybody wants to do
It's not so complicated
'Cause I know you want the same thing too
So what you gonna do?
What you gonna say?
When we're standing on top and do it our way
You say we got no future
You're living in the past
So listen up, that's my generation

(hey ho, let's go!)
It's going down tonight
(hey ho, let's go!)
We're gonna do it till we die
(hey ho, let's go!)
'Cause I, I, I got no reason to apologize
That's my generation

(Listen!)

Don't need to say I'm sorry
(ohh...)
It's not so complicated
'Cause I know you want the same thing too

(hey ho, let's go!)
It's going down tonight
(hey ho, let's go!)
We're gonna do it till we die
(hey ho, let's go!)
'Cause I, I, I got no reason to apologize
That's my generation

(hey ho, let's go!)
That's my generation
(hey ho, let's go!)
We're gonna do it till we die
(hey ho, let's go!)
'Cause I, I, I got no reason to apologize
That's my generation




Time to Say Goodbye

I just don't want to waste another day
I'm trying to make things right
But you shove it in my face
And all those things you've done to me I can't erase
And I can't keep this inside
It's time to say goodbye

On the first day that I met you
I should have known to walk away
I should have told you you were crazy
And disappear without a trace
But instead I stood there waiting
Hoping you would come around
But you always found a way to let me down

It's time to say goodbye
(I just don't want to waste another day)
It's time to say goodbye
(Cause things will never be he same)
It's time to say goodbye
(You make me think I need to walk away)
It's time to say goodbye
It's time to say goodbye

After all the things I've done for you
You never tried to do the same
It's like you always play the victim
And I'm the one you always blame
When you need someone to save you
When you think you're going to drown
(Think you're going to drown)
You just grab your arms around me and pull me down

It's time to say goodbye
(I just don't want to waste another day)
It's time to say goodbye
(Cause things will never be he same)
It's time to say goodbye
(You make me think I need to walk away)
It's time to say goodbye
It's time to say goodbye

Now I'm gone
It's too late
You can't fix
Your mistakes
I was trying to save you from you
So you scream
So you cry
I can see
Through your lies
You're just trying to change me
(Trying to change me)

Somewhere in the distance
There's a place for me to go
I don't want you to hate me
But I think you need to know
You're weighing on my shoulders
And I'm sick of feeling down
So I guess it's time for me to say goodbye




I Can Wait Forever

You look so beautiful today
When you're sitting there
It's hard for me to look away
So I try to find the words that I could say
I know distance doesn't matter
But you feel so far away

And I can't lie
But every time I leave my heart turns grey
And I wanna come back home to see your face tonight
Cause I just can't take it

Another day without you with me
Is like a blade it cuts right through me
But I can wait... I can wait forever

When you call my heart stops beating
And when you're gone it won't stop bleeding
And I can wait... I can wait forever

You look so beautiful today
It's like every time I turn around
I see your face
The thing I miss the most is
Waking up next to you
When I look into your eyes
Man, I wish that I could stay

And I can't lie
But every time I leave my heart turns grey
And I wanna come back home to see your face tonight
Cause I just can't take it

Another day without you with me
Is like a blade it cuts right through me
But I can wait... I can wait forever (I can wait forever)

When you call my heart stops beating
And when you're gone it won't stop bleeding
And I can wait (I can wait)... I can wait (I can wait)... I can wait forever

I know it feels like forever (like forever)
I guess that's just the price I gotta pay
When I come back home
To feel your touch makes it better (makes it better)
Until that day there's nothing else that I can do
And I just can't take it (I just can't take it)

Another day without you with me
Is like a blade it cuts right through me
But I can wait (I can wait)... I can wait forever (I can wait forever)

When you call my heart stops beating
And when you're gone it won't stop bleeding
And I can wait (I can wait)... I can wait (I can wait)... I can wait forever
I can wait forever
I can wait forever

I can wait forever
I can wait forever
I can wait forever




Holding On

Once again, I've fallen to my knees,
(I try to escape cause I just can't take it)
And now, this feeling is spreading like a disease
(I think I'm in a dream, but the wheel keeps turning)

This place is so pathetic,
Doesn't anybody get it?
Is there anybody home?
(Is there anybody home?)
There's nothing left,
We're just a shadow,
Of what we used to be

In the night,
There's a fire in my eyes,
And this paradise,
Has become a place we've come to cry,
When I open your letter,
The words make it better,
It takes it all away,
(ooooooooooohh...)
It keeps me holding on,
(ohh...)
It keeps me holding on

Here we are, pretending we're okay,
(You can say what you want, but you still can't fool me)
The lives we're living, it's all a masquerade,
(I try to smile, but I can't remember how)
So how'd we get so jaded?
Is it so complicated?
To not give up on me?

In the night,
There's a fire in my eyes,
And this paradise,
Has become a place we've come to cry,
When I open your letter,
The words make it better,
It takes it all away.
(Oh, oooooooh.)
It keeps me holding on.
(Whenever I need you,
Wherever I run to,
I'll know where to find you.)
It keeps me holding on.
(Whenever I need you,
Wherever I run to,
I know where to find you.)

Oooooooooooh, ooooooooooh.
You keep me holding oooooooooon.
You keep me holding oooooooooon.

In the night,
There's a fire in my eyes. (There's a fire in my eyes)
And this paradise,
Has become a place we've come to cry. (Has become a place we've come to cry)
When I open your letter,
The words make it better.
It takes it all away. (Takes it all away)
(Oh, oooooooh.)
It keeps me holding on.
(Whenever I need you,
Wherever I run to,
I'll know where to find you.)
It keeps me holding on.
(Whenever I need you,
Wherever I run to,
I'll know where to find you.)
It keeps me holding on.




No Love

Staring out into the world across the street
You hate the way your life turned out to be
He's pulling up in the driveway and you don't make a sound
Cause you always learn to hold the things you want to say
You're always going to be afraid

There's only hate
There's only tears
There's only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There's only lies
There's only fears
There's only pain
There is no love here

Broken down like a mirror smashed to pieces
You learned the hard way to shut your mouth and smile
If these walls could talk they would have so much to say
Cause every time you fight the scars are gonna heal but they're never gonna go away

There's only hate
There's only tears
There's only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There's only lies
There's only fears
There's only pain
There is no love here
Oh no So what will you do?

You're falling, you're screaming
You're stuck in the same old nightmare
He's lying, you're crying
There's nothing left to salvage
Kick the door cause this is over
Get me out of here

(Kick the door)

There's only hate
There's only tears
There's only pain
There is no love here
Oh so what will you do?
There's only lies
There's only fears
There's only pain
There is no love here
Tell me what will you do?
There's only hate
There's only tears
There's only pain
There is no love here




What If

What if I lead the way
What if I make mistakes
What if I change the world
What if I take the blame

I remember going back to the place we used to lay
But I keep losing track
Another days, they all turn black
And our dreams all start to fade
But there's no turning back

Cuz the world keeps turning
And my heart's still burning

What if I change the world
If I lead the way
What if I be the one who takes the blame
What if I can't go on without you
What if I graduate
What if I don't
What if I don't

I was slowly, giving up
As the world keeps losing faith
And you still turn your back
Another path I follow takes a tool on me, on you
But there's no turning back

Cuz the world keeps turning
And my heart's still burning

What if I change the world
If I lead the way
What if I be the one who takes the blame
What if I can't go on without you
What if I graduate
What if I don't
What if I don't

I'll be waiting here
I'll be waiting here
I'll be waiting here
For you to call me

Ohh..

What if I lead the way
What if I graduate
What if I change the world
Would you still remember me?
What if I lead the way
What if I graduate
What if I change the world
And I found the words to tell you right to me (?)

I'll be waiting here
I'll be waiting here
I'll be waiting here
For you to call me

I'll be waiting here
I'll be waiting here
I'll be waiting here
