At the Library

Hey there lookin' at me

Tell me what do you see

But you quickly turn your head away

Try to find the words I could use

Don't have the courage to come up to you

My chance is looking a bit grey

Starting across the room

Are you leaving soon?

I just need a little time

What is it that drives me mad?

Girls like you that I never had

What is it about you that I adore?

What makes me feel so much pain?

What makes me go so insane?

What is it about you that I adore?

Starting across the room

Are you leaving soon?

I just need a little time

Whoa time Whoaa!!!!!!

Why did you have to leave so soon?

Why did you have to walk away?

Oh well it happened again

She walked away with her boyfriend

Maybe we'll meet again someday.

SOMEDAY!!!!!!

Don't Leave Me

I'll go for miles

Till I find you

Oh you say you want to leave me

But you can't choose

I've gone through pain

Every day and night

I feel my mind is going insane

Something I can't fight

Don't leave me

A blank expression

Covering your face

I'm looking for directions

For out of this place

I start to wonder

If you'll come back

I feel the rain storming after thunder

I can't hold back

Don't leave me

Don't leave me ee ee..

I'll go for miles

Till I find you

Oh you say you want to leave me

But you can't choose

I've gone through pain

Every day and night

I feel my mind is going insane

Something I can't fight

Don't leave me

Don't leave me ee ee.. (Yhea)

I Was There

Looking back upon my life

And the places that I've been

Pictures, faces, girls I've loved

I try to remember when

Faded memories on the wall

Some names I have forgotten

But each one is a memory

I look back on so often.

I look into the past

And I want to make it last

I was there

I look into the past

And I want to make it last

I was there

Looking back what I have done

There's lots more life to live

At times I feel overwhelmed

I question what I can give

But I don't let it get me down

Or cause me too much sorrow

There's no doubt about who I am

I always have tomorrow

I look into the past

And I want to make it last

I was there

I look into the past

And I want to make it last

I was there

Looking back upon my life

(On my life)

Faded memories on the wall

(On The Wall)

Looking now at who I am

(Who am I?)

I don't let it get me down.

(I don't let it get me down)

Looking back upon my life

And the places that I've been

Pictures, faces, girls I've loved

I try to remember when

But I don't let it get me down

Or cause me too much sorrow

There's no doubt about who I am

I always have tomorrow

I look into the past

And I want to make it last

I was there

I look into the past

And I want to make it last

I was there

Disappearing Boy

Now you see me, now you don't

Don't ask me where I'm at

'Cause I'm a million miles away

Treated like a forbidden heel

Don't say my thoughts are not for real

Or you won't see me again

Am I here or am I there?

Or am I playing on the stairs?

Am I in my room with my toys?

I am the disappearing boy

When I walk in crowded rooms

I feel as if it is my doom

I know that I don't belong

In that room I see her

I see her and she's with him

I turn around and then I'm gone

Don't call me up 'cause I'm not home

My where abouts are now unknown

I vanished from all your joy

I'm the disappearing boy

I have my doubts

Of where I belong

It's something to think about

Don't call me up 'cause I'm not home

My where abouts are now unknown

I vanished from all your joy

I'm the disappearing boy

Green Day

A small cloud has fallen

The white mist hits the ground

My lungs comfort me with joy

Vegging on one detail

The rest just crowds around

My eyes itch of burning red

Picture sounds

Of moving insects so surreal

Lay around

Looks like I found something new

Laying in my bed

I think I'm in left field

I picture someone, I think it's you

You're standing so damn close

My body begins to swell

Why does one and one make two?

Picture sounds

Of moving insects so surreal

Lay around

Looks like I found something new

Laying in my bed

I think I'm in left field

I picture someone, I think it's you

You're standing so damn close

My body begins to swell

Why does one and one make two?

Picture sounds

Of moving insects so surreal

Lay around

Looks like I found something new

Going to Pasalacqua

Here we go again, infatuation

Touches me just when

I thought that it would end

Oh but then again it seems

Much more than that but

I'm not sure exactly what you're thinking

Well, I toss and turn all night

Thinking of your ways of affection

But to find that it's not different at all

I throw away my past mistakes

And contemplate my future

That's when I say...

What the hey!

Would It last forever?

You and I together, hand and hand

We run away (far away)

I'm in for nasty weather

But I'll take whatever you can

give that comes my way (far away)

Here we go again, infatuation

Touches me just when

I thought that it would end

Oh but then again it seems

Much more than that but

I'm not sure exactly what you're thinking

Well,I toss and turn all night

Thinking of your ways of affection

But to find that it's not different at all

I throw away my past mistakes

And contemplate my future

That's when I say...

What the hey!

Would It last forever?

You and I together, hand and hand

We run away (far away)

I'm in for nasty weather

But I'll take whatever you can

give that comes my way (far away)

Well,I toss and turn all night

Thinking of your ways of affection

But to find that it's not different at all

I throw away my past mistakes

And contemplate my future

That's when I say...

What the hey!

Would It last forever?

You and I together, hand and hand

We run away (far away)

I'm in for nasty weather

But I'll take whatever you can

give that comes my way (far away)

Every night I dream the same dream

Of getting older and older all the time

I ask you now, what does this mean?

Are all these problems just in my mind?

Things are easy when you're a child

But now these pressures have dropped on my head

The length I've gone are just long miles

Would they be shorter if I were dead?

Every time I look in my past

I always wish I was there

I wish my youth would forever last

Why are these times so unfair

Look at my friends and see what they've done

Ask myself why they had to change

I like them better when they were young

But all these times are rearranged

I look down and stand there and cry

Nothing ever will be the same

The sun is rising, now I ask why?

The clouds now fall and here comes the rain

Every time I look in my past

I always wish I was there

I wish my youth would forever last

Why are these times so unfair

Every night I dream the same dream

Of getting older and older all the time

I ask you now, what does this mean?

Are all these problems just in my mind?

Things are easy when you're a child

But now these pressures have dropped on my head

The length I've gone are just long miles

Would they be shorter if I were dead?

Every time I look in my past

I always wish I was there

I wish my youth would forever last

Why are these times so unfair

Road to Acceptance

I always waste my time just wondering

What the next man thinks of me

I'll never do exactly what I want

And I'll sculpt my life for your acceptance

I always waste my time just wondering

What the next man thinks of me

I'll never do exactly what I want

And I'll sculpt my life for your acceptance

And I feel for-got-ten

Feel like rot-ting

(Do you feel the same?)

A-do-le-scence

Just can't make sense

(It's calling my name)

I take a look around

And all the things I've found

I call it blind hatred

If you'd stop a while

And maybe if you'd smile

You would realize that

We're all the same

It's just like our brain

When it goes insane

We feel the same pain

All my life I've seemed to have this need

I think at times it even turns to greed

We all want to join some family

We'll even sacrifice a moral changing

And I feel for-got-ten

Feel like rot-ting

(Do you feel the same?)

A-do-le-scence

Just can't make sense

(It's calling my name)

I take a look around

And all the things I've found

I call it blind hatred

If you'd stop a while

And maybe if you'd smile

You would realize that

We're all the same

It's just like our brain

When it goes insane

We feel the same pain

I take a look around

And all the things I've found

I call it blind hatred

If you'd stop a while

And maybe if you'd smile

You would realize that

We're all the same

It's just like our brain

When it goes insane

We feel the same pain

Rest

Hey can you hear me?

I'm calling your name

Hello? Or is this goodbye?

The gleam in your eyes

It troubles my brain

Will I see it again?

So I can rest my head

Angel...Angel! Dancing away

As all of my thoughts get rearranged

Angel...Angel! Turning away

Just when things seem

To have changed

So I can rest my head

Hey can you hear me?

I'm calling your name

Hello? Or is this goodbye?

The gleam in your eyes

It troubles my brain

Will I see it again?

So I can rest my head

The Judge's Daughter

Princess in a school girl's dream

May I please speak to you?

I'm having troubles with control

And it's all because of you

Today I kept for falling down

I thought it was the street

So I look down at my shoes

They were on the wrong feet

And I find it hard to be myself

(Can you please explain?)

And I do not think that it's my health

(You're the one to blame)

You're the one I wish I had

And now my girlfriend is getting mad

(I cannot call this sane)

Today as I was walking down

You bumped into me

You said "excuse me" but walked away

As I dropped to my knees

I prayed for being in the sky

That my parents told me of

I asked about you but no reply

No clues about your love!

And I find it hard to be myself

(Can you please explain?)

And I do not think that it's my health

(You're the one to blame)

My girlfriend left me on the phone

I'm pathetically left here alone

(I cannot call this sane)

Can we find a way?

So that you can stay

I think I'm gonna pop

I find it hard to be myself

(Can you please explain?)

And I do not think that it's my health

(You're the one to blame)

You're the one I wish I had

And now my girlfriend is getting mad

(I cannot call this sane)

Can we find a way?

So that you can stay

I think I'm gonna pop

Paper Lanterns

Now I rest my head from

Such an endless dreary time

A time of hopes and happiness

That had you on my mind

Those days are gone and now it seems

As if I'll get some rest

But now and then I'll see you again

And it puts my heart to test

So when are all my troubles going to end?

I'm understanding now that

We are only friends

To this day I'm asking why

I still think about you

As the days go on I wonder

Will this ever end?

I find it hard to keep control

When you're with your boyrfriend

I do not mind if all I am is

Just a friend to you

But all I want to know right now

Is if you think about me too... ?

So when are all my troubles going to end?

I'm understanding now that

We are only friends

To this day I'm asking why

I still think about you

(Yhea....)

So when are all my troubles going to end?

I'm understanding now that

We are only friends

To this day I'm asking why

I still think about you

Why Do You Want Him?

I saw you standing alone

With a sad look on your face

You call him on the phone

Looks like he left

Without a trace

Tears falling out of your eyes

He's living in a disguise

You've been feeling bad for so long

You wonder if it's right or wrong

Why Do You Want Him?

Now many days have gone by

And you still just sit there and cry

You're feeling bad for yourself

His memory will always dwell

You're so obsessed with his love

That's why push came to shove

You've been feeling bad for so long

You wonder if it's right or wrong

Why Do You Want Him?

You found a way out...

To throw it all the way

But you can bet...

You got something to say

Why Do You Want Him?

409 in Your Coffeemaker

I sit in the state of a daydream

With all of your words

flying over my head

Even more time gets wasted

In a daze

(Daze...)

It should seem obvious to you

Your screams and cries

are never going to work

And all of your time gets wasted

In my daze

(My daze...)

And I'm looking back now

At where I have gone wrong

And why I could not seem

to get along

My interests are longing

To break through these chains

These chains that control

My future's aim...

Oh no...

I sit in the state of a daydream

With all of your words

flying over my head

Even more time gets wasted

In a daze

(Daze...)

Maybe I'm just too damn lazy

Or maybe I was just brainwashed

to think that way

And all of your time gets wasted

In my daze

(My daze...)

And I'm looking back now

At where I have gone wrong

And why I could not seem

to get along

My interests are longing

To break through these chains

These chains that control

My future's aim...

Oh no...

I'm looking-

back now at-

Where I have-

have gone wrong...

And why I -

Could not seem-

to get along...

And I'm looking back now

At where I have gone wrong

And why I could not seem

to get along

My interests are longing

To break through these chains

These chains that control

My future's aim...

Oh no...

I know things are getting tougher

When you can't get the top off

the bottom of the barrel,

Wide open road of my future now...

It's looking fucking narrow.
