Unwanted

All that I did was walk over
Start off by shaking your hands
That's how it went
I had a smile on my face and I sat up straight
Oh, yeah, yeah
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you

[Chorus]
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up
Make me go away

No, I just don't understand why
You won't talk to me
It's hurts that I'm so unwanted for nothing
Don't talk words against me
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you

[Chorus]

Make me go away

I tried to belong
It didn't seem wrong
My head aches
Its been so long
I'll write this song
If that's what it take

[Chorus: x2]

Make me go away
Make me go away

My World

Please tell me what is taking place,
'Cause I can't seem to find a trace,
Guess it must have got erased somehow,
Probably cause I always forget,

Every time someone tells me their name,
It's always gotta be the same.
(In my World)
Never wore cover-up,

Always beat the boys up,
Grew up in a 5000 population town,
Made my money by cutting grass,
Got fired by fried chicken ass,
All in a small town, Napanee.

You know I always stay up without sleepin',
And think to myself,
Where do I belong forever,
In whose arms, the time and place?

[Chorus]
Can't help if I space in a daze,
My eyes tune out the other way,
I may switch off and go in a daydream,
In this head my thoughts are deep,
But sometimes I can't even speak,
Would someone be and not pretend? I'm off again in my World

I never spend less than an hour,
Washin' my hair in the shower,
It always takes 5 hours to make it straight,
So I'll braid it in a zillion braids,
Though it may take all friggen day,
There's nothin' else better to do anyway.

When you're all alone in the lands of forever,
Lay under the milky way,
On and on it's getting too late out,
I'm not in love this time this night.

[Chorus]

(La la la la)

Take some time,
Mellow out,
Party up,
But don't fall down,
Don't get caught,
Sneak out of the house.

[Chorus]

Can't help if I space in a daze,
My eyes tune out the other way,
I may switch off and go in a daydream,

In this head my thoughts are deep,
But sometimes I can't even speak,
Would someone be and not pretend? I'm off again in my World

Naked

I wake up in the morning
Put on my face
The one that's gonna get me
Through another day
Doesn't really matter
How I feel inside
'Cause life is like a game sometimes

But then you came around me
The walls just disappeared
Nothing to surround me
And keep me from my fears
I'm unprotected
See how I've opened up
Oh, you've made me trust

Because I've never felt like this before
I'm naked
Around you
Does it show?
You see right through me
And I can't hide
I'm naked
Around you
And it feels so right

I'm trying to remember
Why I was afraid
To be myself and let the
Covers fall away
I guess I never had someone like you
To help me, to help me fit
In my skin

I never felt like this before
I'm naked
Around you
Does it show?
You see right through me
And I can't hide
I'm naked
Around you
And it feels so right

I'm naked
Oh oh yeah
Does it show?
Yeah, I'm naked
Oh oh, yeah yeah

I'm so naked around you
And I can't hide
You're gonna see right through, baby

Everything Back But You

Today was the worst day: I went through hell
I wish I could remove it from my mind
Two months away from you, but I couldn't tell
I thought that everything was gonna be just fine

The postcard that you wrote with the stupid little note
Something wasn't quite right about it
Smelled like cheap perfume, and it didn't smell like you
There is no way you can get around it
Because you wrote...

[Chorus]
I wish you were her
You left out the "E"
You left without me
And now you're somewhere out there with a
Bitch, slut, psychopath
I hate you; why are guys so lame?
Everything I gave you
I want everything back but you

My friends tried to tell me all along
That you weren't the right one for me
My friends tried to tell me to be strong
I bet you didn't think that I would see

The postcard that you wrote with the stupid little note
Something wasn't quite right about it
I wanna see you cry like I did a thousand times
Now you're losing me, you're losing me now
'Cause you wrote...

[Chorus]

The postcard that you wrote with the stupid little note
Something wasn't quite right about it
Smelled like cheap perfume, and it didn't smell like you
There is no way you can get around it
Because you wrote...

[Chorus]

I wish you were her
You left out the "E"
You left without me
Everything back but you
I wish you were her
You left out the "E"
You left without me
Everything back but you

Take Me Away

I cannot find a way
To describe it
It's there
Inside

All I do is hide
I wish
That it
Would just go away

What would
You do?
You do?
If you knew...
What would you do?

All the pain
I thought I knew
All these thoughts lead back to you
Back to what

Was never said
Back and forth
Inside my head
I can't handle this confusion

I'm unable
Come and take me away

I feel
Like I
Am alone
All by

Myself
I need to get around this
My words
Are cold

I don't want them to hurt you
If I
Show you
I don't think you'd understand
'Cause no one understands

All the pain
I thought I knew
All these thoughts lead back to you
Back to what

Was never said
Back and forth
Inside my head
I can't handle this confusion

I'm unable
Come and take me away

I'm going nowhere
On and on and...
I'm getting nowhere
On and on and...
Take me away

I'm going nowhere
On and on and...
Up and on and
Up and on

All the pain
I thought I knew
All these thoughts lead back to you
Back to what

Was never said
Back and forth
Inside my head
I can't handle this confusion

I'm unable
Come and take me away

Take me away
Take me away
Take me away

Nobody's Fool

Fall back
Take a look at me
And you'll see I'm for real
I feel what only I can feel

And if that don't appeal to you
Let me know
And I'll go
'Cause I flow

Better when my colors show
And that's the way it has to be
Honestly
'Cause creativity could never bloom

In my room
I'd throw it all away before I lie
So don't call me with a compromise
Hang up the phone
I've got a backbone stronger than yours

La la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la

[Chorus]
If you're trying to turn me into someone else
Its easy to see I'm not down with that
I'm not nobody's fool
If you're trying to turn me into something else
I've seen enough and I'm over that
I'm not nobody's fool
If you want to bring me down
Go ahead and try
Go ahead and try

You don't know
You think you know me like yourself
But I fear
That you're only telling me what I want to hear

But do you give a damn
Understand
That I can't not be what I am
I'm not the milk and cheerios in your spoon

It's not a simple hearing but not so soon
I might have fallen for that when I was fourteen
And a little more green
But its amazing what a couple of years can mean

La la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la

[Chorus]

Go ahead and try
Try and look me in the eye
But you'll never see inside
Until you realize, realize
Things are trying to settle down

Just try to figure out
Exactly what I'm about
If its with or without you
I don't need you doubting me

[Chorus]

La la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la

Would you be laughing out loud
If I played to my own crowd
Try

Slipped Away

I miss you, miss you so bad
I don't forget you, oh it's so sad
I hope you can hear me
I remember it clearly

The day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same
Ooh

Nah nah la la la nah nah

I didn't get around to kiss you
Goodbye on the hand
I wish that I could see you again
I know that I can't

Ooh
I hope you can hear me cause I remember it clearly

The day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same
Ooh

I had my wake up
Won't you wake up
I keep asking why
And I can't take it
It wasn't fake
It happened, you passed by

Now your gone, now your gone
There you go, there you go
Somewhere I can't bring you back
Now your gone, now your gone
There you go, there you go,
Somewhere your not coming back

The day you slipped away
Was the day i found it won't be the same no...
The say you slipped away
Was the day that i found it won't be the same ooh...

Nah nah, nah nah nah, nah nah
I miss you

Alone [*]

No wonder why my insecurity is growing wide.
I struggle to focus.
People walk into my life and judge me by what they hear.
No one has ever been there or ever gave the heart to care.
Deeds of shame.
The world around me, know my pain.
The world that I see.
So maybe I am bound by fate.
A problematic scarring induced by hate.
To me the night captures a sudden glimpse.
I am all alone.
But what is another night all alone,
When you are spending every night on your own.
She's lost inside, lost inside.
She's lost inside, lost inside.
Oh oh yeah!
The Whispers carried by the wind turn me into stone.
Could this be the very end?
Or will I still be all alone??

Losing Grip

Are you aware of what
You make me feel, baby
Right now I feel invisible to you
Like I'm not real
Didn't you feel me lock my arms around you
Why'd you turn away
Here's what I have to say

I was left to cry there
Waiting outside there
Grinning with the lost stare
That's when I decided

Why should I care
'Cause you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone

You, you need to listen
I'm startin' to trip
I'm losing my grip
And I'm in this thing alone
(oh oh yeah)

Am I just some chick
You placed beside you
To take somebody's place?
When you turn around

Can you recognize my face?
You used to love me
You used to hug me
But that wasn't the case
Everything wasn't ok

I was left to cry there
Waiting outside there
Grinning with a lost stare
That's when I decided...

Why should I care
'Cause you weren't there when I was scared
I was so alone
You, you need to listen
I'm starting to trip
I'm losing my grip
And I'm in this thing alone

Crying out loud
I'm crying out loud
Crying out loud
I'm crying out loud
Open your eyes
Open up wide

Why should I care
Cause you weren't there when I was scared
I was so alone
Why should I care

'Cause you weren't there when I was scared
I was so alone
Why should I care
If you don't care then I don't care

We're not going anywhere
Why should I care
'Cause you weren't there when I was scared
I was so alone

Why should I care
If you don't care then I don't care
We're not going anywhere

Tomorrow

And I want to believe you,
When you tell me that it'll be ok,
Ya I try to believe you,
But I don't

When you say that it's gonna be,
It always turns out to be a different way,
I try to believe you,
Not today, today, today, today, today...

[Chorus]
I don't know how I'll feel,
Tomorrow, tomorrow,
I don't know what to say,
Tomorrow, tomorrow
Is a different day

It's always been up to you,
It's turning around,
It's up to me,
I'm gonna do what I have to do,
Just don't

Gimme a little time,
Leave me alone a little while,
Maybe it's not too late,
Not today, today, today, today, today...

[Chorus]

I don't know how I'll feel,
Tomorrow, tomorrow,
I don't know what to say,
Tomorrow, tomorrow
Is a different day

Hey yeah yeah, hey yeah yeah, and I know I'm not ready,
Hey yeah yeah, hey yeah yeah, maybe tomorrow

Hey yeah yeah, hey yeah yeah, and I know I'm not ready,
Hey yeah yeah, hey yeah yeah, maybe tomorrow

And I want to believe you,
When you tell me that it'll be ok,
Yeah I try to believe you,
Not today, today, today, today, today...

Tomorrow it may change [Repeat: x4]

Don't Tell Me

You held my hand and walked me home,I know
While you gave me that kiss you were something like this
It made me go ooh ooh
You wiped my tears got rid of all my fears
Why did you have to go?
Guess it wasn't enough to take up some of my love
Guys are so hard to trust

Did I not tell you that I'm not like that
Girl, the one who gives it all away?

Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was somethin' I was gonna do,and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do
Don't try to tell me what to say
You're better off that way

Don't think that your charm, and the fact that your arm
Is now around my neck
Will get you in my pants I'll have to kick your ass
And make you never forget
I'm gonna ask you to stop thought I liked you a lot
But I'm really upset, really upset
Get outta my head, get off of my bed
Yeah that's what I said

Did I not tell you that I'm not like that
Girl, the one who throws it all away?

Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was somethin' I was gonna do, and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do
Don't try to tell me what to say
You're better off that way

This guilt trip that you put me on won't mess me up
I've done no wrong
Any thoughts of you and me have gone away

Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was somethin' I was gonna do, and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do
Don't try to tell me what to say
You're better off that way

Better off that way
I'm better off alone anyway

Anything But Ordinary

Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep
It's my lullaby
Sometimes I drive so fast
Just to feel the danger
I want to scream
It makes me feel alive

Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breath?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

To walk within the lines
Would make my life so boring
I want to know that I
Have been to the extreme
So knock me off my feet
Come on now give it to me
Anything to make me feel alive

Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breath?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please.

Let down your defenses
Use no common sense
If you look you will see
That this world is a beautiful
Accident turbulent succulent
Opulent permanent, no way
I want to taste it
Don't want to waste it away

Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh my self to sleep
It's my lullaby

Is it enough?
Is it enough?
Is it enough to breath?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

Is it enough?
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please.

My Happy Ending

So much for my happy ending...
Oh, [Repeat: x7]

Lets talk this over,
It's not like we're dead,
Was it something I did,
Was it something you said?

Don't leave me hanging,
In a city so dead,
Held up so high,
On such a breakable thread.

You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be...

You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be but we lost it
All of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending,
So much for my happy ending.

Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending

You've got your dumb friends,
I know what they say,
They tell you I'm difficult,
But so are they.

But they don't know me,
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me,
All the shit that you do.

You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be...

You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
All of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending

It's nice to know that you were there,
So thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one.
It's nice to know we had it all,
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done.

He was everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
All of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending

You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
All of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending

Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending

Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending

Oh oh, oh oh,
Oh oh, oh oh

Fall to Pieces

I looked away
Then I looked back at you
You tried to say
Things that you can't undo
If I had my way
I'd never get over you
Today's the day
I pray that we make it through
Make it through the fall
Make it through it all

[Chorus]
And I don't want to fall to pieces
I just want to sit and stare at you
I don't want to talk about it
And I don't want a conversation
I just want to cry in front of you
I don't want to talk about it
'Cause I'm in love with you

You're the only one
I'd be with 'til the end
When I come undone
You bring me back again
Back under the stars
Back into your arms

[Chorus]
And I don't want to fall to pieces
I just want to sit and stare at you
I don't want to talk about it
And I don't want a conversation
I just want to cry in front of you
I don't want to talk about it
'Cause I'm in love with you

Want to know who you are
Want to know where to start
I want to know what this means
Want to know how you feel
Want to know what is real
I want to know everything, everything

[Chorus]
And I don't want to fall to pieces
I just want to sit and stare at you
I don't want to talk about it
And I don't want a conversation
I just want to cry in front of you
I don't want to talk about it

And I don't want to fall to pieces
I just want to sit and stare at you
I don't want to talk about it
And I don't want a conversation
I just want to cry in front of you
I don't want to talk about it
'Cause I'm in love with you

I'm in love with you
'Cause I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you

Nobody's Home

I couldn't tell you
Why she felt that way
She felt it everyday
And I couldn't help her
I just watched her make
The same mistakes again

What's wrong, what's wrong now
Too many, too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs.

[Chorus]
She wants to go home
But nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside

Open your eyes
And look outside
Find the reason why
You've been rejected
And now you can't find
What you left behind

Be strong, be strong now
Too many, too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs.

[Chorus]
She wants to go home
But nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside

Her feelings she hides
Her dreams she can't find
She's losing her mind
She's falling behind

She can't find her place
She's losing her faith
She's falling from grace
She's all over the place yeah

[Chorus]
She wants to go home
But nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go to
Dry her eyes
Broken inside

She's lost inside lost inside
She's lost inside lost inside

Things I'll Never Say

I'm tugging at my hair
I'm pulling at my clothes
I'm trying to keep my cool
I know it shows
I'm staring at my feet
My cheeks are turning red
I'm searching for the words inside my head

Cause I'm feeling nervous
Trying to be so perfect
Cause I know you're worth it
You're worth it
Yeah

[Chorus]
If I could say what I want to say
I'd say I want to blow you, away
Be with you every night
Am I squeezing you too tight
If I could say what I want to see
I want to see you go down
On one knee
Marry me today
Guess, I'm wishing my life away
With these things I'll never say

It don't do me any good
It's just a waste of time
What use is it to you
What's on my mind
If ain't coming out
We're not going anywhere
So why can't I just tell you that I care

Cause I'm feeling nervous
Trying to be so perfect
Cause I know you're worth it
You're worth it
Yeah

[Chorus]

What's wrong with my tongue
These words keep slipping away
I stutter, I stumble
Like I've got nothing to say

Cause I'm feeling nervous
Trying to be so perfect
Cause I know you're worth it
You're worth it
Yeah

Guess I'm wishing my life away with these things I'll never say
If I could say what I want to say
I'd say I want to blow you, away
Be with you every night

Am I squeezing you too tight
If I could say what I want to see
I want to see you go down
On one knee

Marry me today
Guess I'm wishing my life away
With these things I'll never say
These things I'll never say

I Will Be [*]

There's nothing I can say to you
Nothing I could ever do to make you see
What you mean to me
All the pain the tears they cry
Still you never said goodbye and now I know how far you'd go
I know I let you down but its not like that now
This time I'll never let you go

I will be all that you want and get my self together
'Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day and make every thing OK

I thought that I had every thing I didn't know what life could bring
But now I see honestly
You're the one thing I got right
The only one I let inside
Now I can breathe 'cause you're here with me
And if I let you down I'll turn it all around
Cause I would never let you go

I will be all that you want and get my self together
'Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day and make every thing OK

'Cause with out you I can't sleep
I'm not gonna ever ever let you leave
You're all I got
You're all I want
Yeah
And with out you I don't know what I'll do
I could never ever live a day with out you
Hear with me do you see your all I need

And I will be all that you want and get my self together
'Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life (my life) I will be with you forever
To get you through the day and make every thing OK

I will be (I'll be) all that you want and get my self together
'Cause you keep me from falling apart
And all my life you know I will be with you forever
To get you through the day and make every thing OK

Complicated

[Repeat x2]
Uh huh, life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh, that's the way it is
Cause life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh that's the way it is

Chill out what you yelling' for?
Lay back it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see
I like you the way you are
When we're drivin' in your car
And you're talking to me one on one but you've become

Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're tryin' to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No no no

You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you're something else
Where you are and where it's sad you see
You're making me
Laugh out when you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes
You know you're not fooling anyone
When you've become

Somebody else round everyone else
Watching your back, like you can't relax
Trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And You fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what and you get and you turn it into
Honesty
Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No no no

Chill out what you yelling for?
Lay back, it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see

Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back, like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool, you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And You fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what and you get and you turn it into

No no no

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like your somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
You fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
Promise me I'm never gonna find you flaking
No no no

Best Damn Thing

Let me hear you say: "hey, hey, hey" (Hey, hey, hey)
All right, now let me hear you say: "hey, hey, ho" (Hey, hey, ho)

I hate it when a guy doesn't get the door
Even though I told him yesterday and the day before
I hate it when a guy doesn't get the tab
And I have to pull my money out, and that looks bad

Where are the hopes, where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene?
When do you think they'll finally see...

[Bridge]
That you're not, not, not gonna get any better
You won't, won't, won't... you won't get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she's a lot like me
We're not the same

[Chorus]
And, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble; I'm a hell of a scandal
Me - I'm a scene; I'm a drama queen
I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen

All right, all right
Yeah

I hate it when a guy doesn't understand
Why a certain time of month I don't want to hold his hand
I hate it when they go out, and we stay in
And they come home smelling like their ex-girlfriend

But I found my hopes, I found my dreams
My Cinderella story scene
Now everybody's gonna see...

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Give me an A - always give me what I want
Give me a V - be very, very good to me
R - are you gonna treat me right?
I - I can put up a fight
Give me an L - let me hear you scream loud (let me hear you scream loud)

One, two, three, four

Where are the hopes, where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene?
When do you think they'll finally see...

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Let me hear you say: "hey, hey, hey" (Hey, hey, hey)
All right, now let me hear you say: "hey, hey, ho" (Hey, hey, ho)

(Hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, ho)
(Hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, ho)

I'm the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen

Hot

You're so good to me, baby, baby

I wanna lock you up in my closet
When no one's around
I wanna push your hand in my pocket
Because you're allowed
I wanna drive you into the corner
And kiss you without a sound
I wanna stay this way forever
I'll say it loud

Now you're in, and you can't get out

[Chorus]
You make me so hot
Make me wanna drop
It's so ridiculous
I can barely stop
I can hardly breathe
You make me wanna scream
You're so fabulous
You're so good to me, baby, baby
You're so good to me, baby, baby

I can make you feel all better
Just take it in
And I can show you all the places
You've never been
And I can make you say everything
That you've never said
And I will let you do anything
Again and again

Now you're in, and you can't get out

[Chorus]

Kiss me gently
Always I know
Hold me, love me
Don't ever go, oh, oh
Oh, yeah, yeah

[Chorus: x 2]

You're so good
