Good News (bonus track)
. . .



So we try and try all of our lives
Working with such pride, making cash just to survive
As we race and grade and judge always
other folks mistakes makes us good to feel that way.

And don't you know, it never stops.
Try to please the world and beat the ticking clocks,
but I, I'm not letting it happen this time.

No, no, because they're rooting I'll fail, and rooting she'll bail,
they feel so secure when I'm in this jail, but I,
I'm not letting it happen this time

So I'll move to the other side of the block
so we wont ever have to stop
making the rounds, having the laughs
singing the sounds of relaxing,
and on the other side of the clock
the power switch will be turned off
and all will be well and time will stand still,
and I will be locked out from my jail


. . .



Don't just don't sit down,
I'm wanting this to be
a super natural flood of life
and not just make believe.
Singing about what's real to me
Gasping for air, trying to breathe
while being pulled from beneath. (ah ah)
While sticking oh so hard to just stay alive,
treading over time,
while I am slowly dying
I take one last breath
and one last prayer to survive,
then the waves they break and
the air it hits my face
my lungs then fill with this new found grace
I swallowed the air, quick to awake
to such a beautiful day

I was so alone,
I was to myself,
thought I was on my way,
but I was missing you.
So make it oh,
break it out,
take this wherever you want,
and I wanna go
so just lead the way
on this train on which I roll.

Oh, oh...
No, no...
Yeah...
Oh, do, do...
Come on, come on, come on...

I was so alone,
I was to myself,
thought I was on my way,
but I was missing you!
So make it oh,
break it out,
take this wherever you want
and I wanna go...

Woah, woah...
Go, go...
Yeah


. . .



Dance until we just can't,
Keep clapping our hands to the songs
And get dancing around to the joyful sound that the band plays
As his smiling face just shines away, it's moving through town as big as a train
April, May, June and July we'll hang outside
August and February all the time
Talking our way through March
Hanging out always 'til this starts
Over and over again, you promise that it won't end
So I will try to find the rhyme to thank you again

How I, I am not into the idea of living without you
And I, I am not into the idea of being without you
And no, this won't be a sad song
There's gonna be claps and singing along
Cause sad song's about now well, that would just feel wrong

Beautiful colors that came from you
So this one goes out to the reds and yellows and blues
And of course I cant forget, all the beautiful colors on the day that we first met
So I will never know the right way to say thanks
for all the nights and days you spent hanging out
Cause that's what this is about

How I, I am not into the idea of living without you
And I, I am not into the idea of being without you
And no, this won't be a sad song
There's gonna be claps and singing along
Cause you're there when you talk and you're there not to stop and you're with me

Around the clock, you are, you are
Around the clock, yes you are
Around the clock

And just so ya'll know everyone else is not
so I, I am not into the idea of living without you
And I, I am not into the idea...
And no, this won't be a sad song
There's gonna be claps and singing along
Cause you're there when you talk and you're there not to stop
and you're with me around the clock


. . .



Do you ever do a thing or two just to wait?
When you don't have anything to say?
I'll try to take this slow, but I don't know...
Cause I don't wanna wait
For time to look for the folks who try to say
that we don't know until were old cause that's how it goes
but I think I know oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And please pick me I'm a terrible mess
You know I just can't help it and I just gotta confess
You do what you do and I can't ever rest

[Bridge:]
So still I'm gonna do everything, I'm gonna make it right
I'm gonna make it good, I'm gonna do it alright
I'm gonna write it down, I'm gonna make a sound, sound, yeah

[Chorus:]
Cause I'm doing everything for you
Because I love to be near to you
Something just takes me away to a place where I'm happy
Cause I'm doing everything for you
Yeah you know that I adore you, oh
and I just can't take it anymore

Oh! Oh! You know I gotta know, yeah, oh no

So I'll be making up things for you to see
Like romantic lights surrounding Italy
Cause you deserve the very best, and I'll never rest
So I'll be sure to pass that test
And I just smile and say whoa cause you just gotta know
That every time we stay you never lose your way
It reaches to the stars shines up the clouds
and lights up this whole world
Bless your heart you've made me happy again
It's been so long and I'm sick of pretending
You've enlightened the brain in my head

[Bridge Repeat]

[Chorus Repeat]

Cause I don't wanna wait for another day cause I can feel this is right
I don't wanna make this go on for too much longer
Cause you've got a ringless finger and I could go buy a ring right now
Well, actually I don't have any money but that's ok
Cause I can figure it out

[Chorus Repeat]


. . .



Hey what you got you don't know
Anything that I'm gonna say right now
Cuz I'm not so sure why I'm here and why I wanna
Keep on hanging 'round right now
Not that I do it now or any day
Sometimes I just get burned out
About lots of things and well just doubt

So tell me something good you got it and
Why am I so misunderstood cuz I wanna know this
Cuz I'm confused and do I break into two
So tell me how about you

Hey what you got something bad and I want it
Even though I know it's wrong
But I won't be blessed cuz I know this so I can't have that
So like good job I gotta be strong
Man I don't wanna be able to breathe
Be able to see what's become
of the wars of this world
and the wars from my tongue

So tell me something good you got it and
Why am I so misunderstood cuz I wanna know this
Cuz I'm confused and I bruise yes I do so tell me how about you
So please just tell me something good you got it and
Why am I so misunderstood cuz I wanna know this
Come on baby and race me and maybe we'll just find ourselves

I wanna be I wanna be like that mountain
I wanna stand taller and bigger than rest
See I just wanna be it a guy who wins all the time
I wanna be a big star a king and rule my own life
And God I know that it's wrong
So please just make my heart right
Inside and destroy my pride

So you can tell me something good you got it and
Why I am so misunderstood cuz I wanna know this
Cuz I'm confused and I bruise yes I do so tell how about you
So please just tell me something good you got it and
Why am I so misunderstood cuz I wanna know this
Come on baby and race me and maybe we'll just find ourselves

Hey what you got something bad and I want it
Even though I know its wrong


. . .



I just ran into a few someone's today
Someone's that I never really knew
And I used to think how I had them all so figured out

But no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
and now the truth of it is, is I wanna be like you
So hello, good friend, I wanna be next to you
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

So I'm burning the thoughts of the things that I once said
Because you tore down the walls that the world that has put inside my head
And I just get sick of the things that we think, we think we know

And no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
and now the truth of it is, is I wanna be like you
So hello, good friend, I wanna be next to you
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

So take me and save me and change me and then make me
And embrace me and then brave my heart for you
No, no, 'cause I can't go on without you
And it's time for something never knowing, oh

And no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
and now the truth of it is, is I wanna be like you
So hello, good friend, I wanna be next to you
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

And as they strolled along
My heart broke out in song
From all the things and the thoughts and assumptions that I had wrong
See now I'll be on my way to make this claim
I'll make it famous in every way
I'll make it stay when I will save it...

No, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
and now the truth of it is, is I wanna be like you
So hello, good friend, I wanna be next to you
For my head, for my heart, for what's true
[x3]

For about four years I've hated this town
There's so much I just want to get out
Since graduation was long ago
Please somebody get me out of this hole
Cause I don't want to get stuck in here
When I am thirty-four just talking about high school years
No I don't want to be there an I feel so stuck right here
Back and forth side to side oh my dear
My foot to the floor I will drive to the place
Where I can kick it with friends through the night
A place well talk about now and the past what the future holds
Hanging out with not much to do
Just aimless with each other is what we do

Cause this ain't where it's at
My friends will second that
And I gotta admit sometimes it's pretty sad
But it's like were our own brat pack
Were always kicking back nobody can take that
That is that it's like it's all we have

Whooo whooo ya oh come on

Say oh oh get on the floor
Dance till you got no more
I know it's there somewhere
Don't worry I'll be there to rock the party all night
To rock you till there's light, our fists in the air
Fighting a good fight
Cause we were singing along to Peter Gabriel sledge hammer song
You know it's clear that tonight we belong in this place
So I stand back to reflect in this town I hate
At least just for a second I think I might stay

This ain't where it's at
My friends will second that
And I gotta admit sometimes it's pretty sad
But its like were our own brat pack
Were always kicking back nobody can take that
And that is that

So ill run away to the hopes that I have
That still I fall asleep in the arms of my past
And when I wake so helpless and thinking of that just lay back down

Again

Everyday

So maybe later today I'll know
What I will do with my life as I know it
Maybe for now ill drive back to that place where I belong
And hope to god it hasn't changed

This ain't where it's at
My friends will second that
And I gotta admit sometimes it's pretty sad
But its like were our own brat pack were always kicking back
Nobody can take that no no no

This ain't where it's at
My friends will second that
And I gotta admit sometimes it's pretty sad
But its like were our own brat pack were always kicking back
Nobody can take that
That is that it's like its all we have


. . .



Night has found its way here
And all I can hear are memories shrill and clear
Like today man had his way
And stole and what I made
He saw that I was sincere

So use me up, then throw me away
Build your careers and friendships
Quote on Quote and frankly I’m ashamed
That I left my name on her lips
Cause when it ends they’ll swear it is

So I’ll fall asleep and try not to think twice
About all the things that forever
Will kick me down the steps
For being too nice
Cause everyone’s searching for treasure

And they’ll just dig, dig, dig
Until they cant get out
And dying dirty digging for treasure
But as for me I’m giving up and I'll take my bow
And focus on my treasure forever
Yes, I know that my treasure is heave


. . .



Hear me
when I speak
and just listen
and try not to be
some kind of self-righteous high being
where the opposites mislead me
to better your mind and see
this is a story
of how we can be

They're building you up to tear you down
they won't admit it but its true
smiling advice to end with your frown
cuz they don't want what's best for you
it's sad I know I know
but you know I'm something else
and now's my turn to just sit back and tell

That you don't know just when to stop
you're living life to be on top
so start back here and be real
and just admit the way you feel
and see we are all one big learning game
and its true that
we all want to be the baddest
we all have a little baggage
even though we hide it
and we always will deny it
we are driving this float down Main
in this pride parade

and I'm not saying that I'm any better than you
sometimes I have motives that are just so stupid
and I play the fool
but man you're killing me
the charade has got to end
so stop acting like you know everything
because you're missing the point
you were supposed to be my friend

You don't know just when to stop
you're living life to be on top
so start back here and be real
and just admit the way you feel
and see we are all one big learning game
and its true that
we all want to be the baddest
we all have a little baggage
even though we hide it
and we always will deny it
we are driving this float down Main
in this pride parade

I don't, I don't know know

just try, just try
to lean away
take me to another place
where I know, I know
what's happening
to my head and to my dreams
cuz I want, I want
I need, I need
some piece of mind and clarity
so just take take my hand
and let's leave

You don't know just when to stop
you're living life to be on top
so start back here and be real
and just admit the way you feel
and see we are all one big learning game
and its true that
we all want to be the baddest
we all have a little baggage
even though we hide it
and we always will deny it
we are driving this float down Main
in this pride parade

ohhh ohhh ohhh...
ba da da da...


. . .



Just walk away
Gather your thoughts for the second wave
Of this argument on this epic changing day
It's crazy to think that an hour ago all things were great
But we stand both proud both wrong and right
Throwing cheap shots in this stubborn fight
And our lives are so intertwined in one
And we're just so stuck in this moment its clear that were coming undone

And you see it’s hard for me to breathe
When I get all worked up with these feelings
And I don’t know exactly how it is
That we can be so mad we consider to not exist
And we both know there’s so much love clenched within our fists

The goodbye waves in the driveway just resonate
And yes I’m throwing it right back at her
While were drowning in rivers from our faces
We just wanna know if this is this over
Trembling silence fills the air
As we stand here so impaired, but so aware

I sit in this house
Alone with fresh photographs
And I just can’t relax
Like cigarette smoke, I’m starting to choke on this
Then half of my souls on the road in a car with a girl in a dress

See it’s making it hard for me to breathe
When I get all worked up with these feelings
And I don’t know exactly how it is
Just to say I’m right, you're wrong, we both lose to win

The goodbye waves in the driveway just resonate
And yes I’m throwing it right back at her
While were drowning in rivers from our faces
We just wanna know if this is this over
Trembling silence fills the air
As we stand here whoa-oh

So hey now, maybe we're just being stupid
Hey, maybe we're being dumb
So hey now, maybe it's time that we stopped and we realize that like a flag in the wind we are one
And how at first it’s made so pure and lovely
But in battle can be torn to shreds
But with time and with patience and love and affection
Can be fixed with needle and thread
Because I love you and you love me
And nothing will make this leave
I said I love you and you love me
And nothing will make, make, make, make this leave
So remember me, yeah!
Remember me, yeah!
Remember me

Don’t walk away…


. . .



Slide your feet, create the shock
touch another, watch it pop
live a little, live a lot
and show me everything you've got

Oh, cause it takes some time
and just a little bit good?
reality won't hurt for longer than it should
just talking about pain that is there
face the fact, don't act like you don't care

Cause you gotta stop and show it, just so I know you know it
maybe just a little bit, oh come on admit it right now
cause I know that it won't be over till it's gone
so let it be gone

And show me everything you've got
I know you're scared
But let your walls just drop
You gotta take that step, and your heart, just let it pour out

Now I know it's hard to be something that you don't think you are
but it's hard for me to even try to understand why you are beating your own heart
cause you gotta try, just try to be honest
and I will be honest all these things that I say
and I'll listen clear, whether brave or you're modest, I'm here
don't hold back, don't hesitate, don't disappear

And show me everything you've got
I know you're scared
But let your walls just drop
You gotta take that step, and your heart, just let it pour out

And show me everything you've got
I know you're scared
But it's time for you to stop
You gotta take that step, and your heart, just let it make sound

So hey, just let it pour out
don't let your past begin to let you down
just sing it out, just let it make sound
and as it will hurt, it will be healed and found
'cause it's normal that emotional pasts can spawn
emotionless dads, mothers, and nation's flags
so show your face, no don't be afraid,
no don't be afraid to show your face

After all these things I've learned
bad things I do and don't deserve
can easily just shape my life
or shape the way I start to die

No, cause it's up to me
if I dwell much longer than I should
and I'll hold my tears for years thinkin' it's doing me good
so just start right now, just make a vow, you'll let your heart just sing it out, sing it out

And show me everything you've got
I know you're scared
But let your walls just drop
You gotta take that step, and your heart, just let it pour out

And show me everything you've got
I know you're scared
But it's time for you to stop
You gotta take that step, and your heart, just let it make sound


. . .



I started to feel while I was walking down the street
Yes I did, and I started thinking about my destiny
And how maybe, maybe just someday I could repay
All the times you sang

All of your warm colors have painted all my days
And all of the tragic tears you took off of my face
'Cause I've fallen off of these train tracks
And nearly seen my death
And I stand here with a song that's left

This will be my destiny
You will be my song, and I will sing
So don't cover up your ears at me
And what I have to tell
I hope that these words, they find you well

I know, I know
When I see it I will know
It's home that I'll go,
When it's my turn to clock out

It's almost like dreaming,
But so real I can't explain
That it's almost hard to think or say
To try to be a different way

This will be my destiny
You will be my song and I will sing
So don't cover up your ears at me
And what I have to tell

So you, do you know what it is you do?
I assume that you're thinking, "Why, yes, I do."
Well I just hope, and pray that you change that soon,
And I would hope and pray if I were you.

If I were you, If I were you
If I were you, If I were you
I'd be asking every single person I knew
To just please say a prayer for me
'Cause I will most assuredly die this century
And in this opportune-filled life that I will leave
I hope to God that I lived for you and not for me

Can you hear me? Can you hear me now?
Is this thing on? Can you hear me?
'Cause I am speaking loud and clear!


. . .



What a perfect ending
To this film we are watching.
‘Cause she loves her boyfriend
Like he has loved his girlfriend.

Just like the night sleeps on by,
Just like the sun wakes the sky
They are so in love
Like we are so in love

So hug it tight and embrace it
Don’t let the world deface it
Just let it shout with amazement
As we dance tonight

Just like the cold becomes spring
Just like the perfect day dream
Just like your pretty eyes gleam
We are so in love

Oh-ho-whoa


. . .



Please mister spare some change
For a poor broken man in need
I’m sick and dying walking barefoot
Please just buy me a drink

The truth is that I’d like to die
But I fear of where I could go, that’s real
‘Cause take a look; I’m so drunk, stupid, and worthless
For some Jesus you feel, that’s real

So let me get this straight
Cause I have a question
You’re saying he’d listen if I were to speak
Yes that’s what I’m saying, in fact I was just thinking
He’s probably thinking of asking you the same very thing
He wants to say “you’re okay, be my friend
Let me help you and take you out of this lake that you are clearly drowning in
Make me yours and I’ll make your mine”

So hey, listen up friends
Good news is coming,
Soon is the end of all the world’s troubles
And all of its sin.
I said hey, listen up friends
Oh, good news it coming,
Soon is the end of all the world’s troubles
And all of it’s sin
