this city bleeds from factories
spray painted walls rebellious dreams
his tattooed arms her cigarettes
but they don't care their world's a mess now

livin' life at the end of a rope that's slowly burning
livin' life at the end of a road with no beginning
livin' life at t

The doors flew open and the people crowded in.They said,
"we can't wait for your show to start"
And their bodies flew,
the only way they knew.
Their coming
straight from the center of my heart

And I see your face and I memorize it.
I see your life. I recognize al

It's confidential. Keep hiding the reality
It's not coincidental .hat I'm beginning to feel the heat
I know it's easy when you know that you're all alone
What do you think I am? You're losing all your friends

Its confidential keep building up the wall
It's not coincidental;

well you're so dangerous

you've always got the time to

push the world aside

always got the time to open my eyes
whoa....i'm on fire

yeah you're so dangerous
you never take the time
to make up your mind
you always find the time
to push the final line

turn on the television
and listen to the morningnews
hear a story bout a girl i once knew
who died from the pills she used

she used to tell me stories
she used to be my friend
now she's gone yeah she's 6 feet under
she can't escape her fate

do you know how to dance the night away
when got you no one to call your name
an you remember how the story ends
when you got no lover and got no friends

can you come with me to the streets tonight
Ill be runnin through to city lights
If you take my hand well be okay <

i shift into reverse
i haven't got a place to go in this town
look out i'm cursed
i'm keeping one eye on the pavement
and one in the clouds

this time it hurts
i'm floorin' the pedal to save me from this town
i let it slide
another mistake another thing i can't</

well i can't stand another minute
you talk talk talk i'm dealin' with it
a person can only take so much
before they crash and they burn from losing touch

well i lose my control when things are
overwhelming and confusing
everybody talks talks talks
and then they laug

I was walking, you were watching
I pretended to not see you
But I always knew…

You were tough , a little rough
But I always saw through you…
I always knew

I was shy, a little sly
I was waiting for the perfect time
To make my move…

Separated by the summe

Another day spent on the road
i'm hoping that smebody knows
the weight that has been lifted
from the life i have left behind

loud clubs people stare
all the while i'm sitting here
just dreaming about where i'll be
if i ever make it out of here

drive on and on

she wore pink pink pink
for the little boys
who dreamed about the day they'd be men
she wore red red red
for the bigger boys
who'd melt by the touch of her hand

she wore crimson
for the boys who left
and took away her heart in their hand
she wore cherry re

whoevers fine whatevers cool
it was me i broke your rules
too much to say ill take it back
will you understand that you
will never hold me back
never hold me back

trying to exert control in
a world thats uncontrollable and
every time it seems i find a way

is there a way to get away from
the worst of it all to consume my fall
i keep runnin away but im going nowhere
just hiding myself i can feel them stare

there must be a way to get out of here
no friends i can call we dont talk anymore
but im losing myself as im taking y

Hey hey you boys

You got what I want to make me see
The world in a different way
My life was empty till you came

You know you want to take that jump
Into a brand new scene

step one
she's gonna find her something to wear
that will blow them all away
and make all the girls glare

step two
she's gonna give it all that she's got
and make sure he's standing in the right spot
when she brushes up against
his black leather jacket

The world was young and so we were we
Times were tough, but living was free
Staying out when there were curfews to meet
We learned to love that summer ,

We were 17…
Driving alone in the summer breeze
Listening to our songs on the cassette radio
If I only knew those

did you see her wiink her eye
flash a smile at every guy
red lipstick eyeliner
sex object sex object

short skirt legs for a mile
always wears the latest style
white teeth and perfect hair
sex object sex object

do you know her do you want her
do you think y

It was the simple things that always
made her mad
It was the life she lived that always
made her sad
They couldn't understand the way it felt to her
Girl, you'd better get your act together
Don't close your eyes, they won't wait forever

She waited all her life just
