1. COMPLICATED

Life's like this
That's the way it is
'Cause life's like this
That's the way it is

Chill out - What cha 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 driving in your car
And you're talking to me one on one
But you become

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?
See the way you're
Acting like you're 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
Honestly 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 ain't - Where it's at 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 become

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

No No No
No No No
No No No

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

[Pre-Chorus]


[Chorus] [x2]


2. SK8ER BOI

He was a boi - She was a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?
He was a punk - She did ballet
What more can I say?
He wanted her - She'd never tell
Secretly she wanted him as well
But all of her friends stuck up their nose
They had a problem with his baggy clothes

He was a sk8er boi
She said "See you later boi"
He wasn't good enough for her
She had a pretty face
But her head was up in space
She needed to come back down to earth

Five years from now - She sits at home
Feeding the baby - She's all alone
She turns on TV - Guess who she sees
Sk8er boi rocking up MTV
She calls up her friends - They already know
And they've all got tickets to see his show
She tags along - Stands in the crowd
Looks up at the man that she turned down

[x2]
He was a sk8er boi
She said "See you later boi"
He wasn't good enough for her
Now he's a superstar
Slamming on his guitar
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?

Sorry girl but you missed out
Well tough luck that boi's mine now
We are more than just good friends
This is how the story ends
Too bad that you couldn't see
See that man that boi could be
There is more than meets the eye
I see the soul that is inside

He's just a boi and I'm just a girl
Can I make it anymore obvious?
We are in love - Haven't you heard
How we rock each others world?

[x2]
I'm with the sk8er boi
I said "See you later boi"
I'll be backstage after the show
I'll be at out studio
Singing the song we wrote
About the girl you used to know


3. I'M WITH YOU

I'm standing on a bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound

[Pre-Chorus]
Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home?

[Chorus]
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I
I'm with you
I'm with you

I'm looking for a place
I'm searching for a face
Is anybody here I know?
'Cause nothing's going right
And everything's a mess
And no one likes to be alone

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Why is everything so confusing?
Maybe I'm just out of my mind
Yeah ...

[Chorus]

[x2]
Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I
I'm with you
I'm with you

I'm with you


4. 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

[Pre-Chorus]
I was left to cry there
Waiting outside there
Grinning with a lost stare
That's when I decided

[Chorus]
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

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

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

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

[x2]
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


5. KNOCKIN' ON HEAVEN'S DOOR

Mama take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark too dark to see
Feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door

[Chorus]
Knock Knock Knockin' on heaven's door
Knock Knock Knockin' on heaven's door
Knock Knock Knockin' on heaven's door
Knock Knock Knockin' on heaven's door

Mama put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That long black cloud is coming down
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

[Chorus]


6. DON'T TELL ME

You held my hand and walked me home - I know
Why you gave me that kiss
It was something like this and made me go oh oh
You wiped my tears got rid of all my fears
Why did you have to go?
Guess it wasn't enough to take up of 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 - Yeah

[Chorus]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you? - This time
Did you think that it was something I was going to 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 to you stop
I thought I liked you a lot but I'm really upset
So get out of 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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

I'm better off alone anyway


7. MY HAPPY ENDING

So much for my happy ending
So much for my happy ending

Let's 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

[Pre-Chorus]
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be

[Chorus]
You were everything - Everything
That I wanted
We were meant to be - Supposed to be
But we lost it
All of our memories so close to me
Just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending

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

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

It's nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you care
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 our memories so close to me
Just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending

[Chorus]

So much for my happy ending
So much for my happy ending


8. NOBODY'S HOME

I couldn't tell you
Why she felt that way
She felt it every day
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 reasons why
You've been rejected
And now you can't find
what you've left behind

Be strong - Be strong now
Too many - Too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs

[Chorus]

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's lost inside - Lost inside
She's lost inside - Lost inside


9. HE WASN'T

There's not much going on today
I'm really bored it's getting late
What happened to my Saturday?
Monday's coming the day I hate

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll sit on my bed alone
Staring at the phone

[Chorus]
He wasn't what I wanted
What I thought no
He wouldn't even open up the door
He never made me feel like I was special
He isn't really what I'm looking for

This is when I start to bite my nails
And clean my room when all else fails
I think it's time for me to bail
This point of view is getting stale

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Na Na Na Na Na
We've all got choices
Na Na Na Na
We've all got voices
Na Na Na Na Na
Stand up make some noise
Na Na Na Na
Stand up make some noise

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

He wasn't what I wanted
What I thought no
He wouldn't even open up the door
He never made me feel like I was special
Like I was special
'Cause I was special

Na Na Na Na Na


10. KEEP HOLDING ON

You're not alone
Together we stand
I'll be by your side
You know I'll take your hand
When it gets cold
And it feels like the end
There's no place to go
You know I won't give in
No I won't give in

[Chorus]
Keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it through - We'll make it through
Just stay strong
Cause you know I'm here for you - I'm here for you
There's nothing you can say
Nothing you can do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it through - We'll make it through

So far away
I wish you were here
Before it's too late
This could all disappear
Before the doors close
And it comes to an end
With you by my side
I will fight and defend
I'll fight and defend

[Chorus]

Hear me when I say
When I say I believe
Nothing's gonna change
Nothing's gonna change destiny
Whatever's meant to be
Will work out perfectly
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

[Chorus]

Keep holding on
Keep holding on
There's nothing you can say
Nothing you can do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So keep holding on
Cause you know we'll make it through - We'll make it through


11. GIRLFRIEND

[Chorus]
Hey Hey You You I don't like your girlfriend
No way No way I think you need a new one
Hey Hey You You I could be your girlfriend
Hey Hey You You I know that you like me
No way No way No it's not a secret
Hey Hey You You I want to be your girlfriend

You're so fine - I want you mine - You're so delicious
I think about you all the time - You're so addictive
Don't you know what I can do to make you feel alright?
Don't pretend - I think you know I'm damn precious
And hell yeah I'm the motherfucking princess
I can tell you like me too and you know I'm right

[Pre-Chorus]
She's like so whatever
You could do so much better
I think we should get together now
And that's what everyone's talking about

[Chorus]

I can see the way - I see the way you look at me
And even when you look away - I know you think of me
I know you talk about me all the time again and again

So come over here and tell me what I want to hear
Better yet - Make the girlfriend disappear
I don't want to hear you say her name ever again

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[x2]
In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger
Cause I can - Cause I can do it better
There's no other so when's it gonna sink in?
She's so stupid - What the hell were you thinking?

[Chorus] [x2]

No way No way Hey Hey


12. WHEN YOU'RE GONE

I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cried
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie is made up on your side

[Pre-Chorus]
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?

[Chorus]
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day
And make it ok
I miss you

I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the clothes you left - They lie on the floor
And they smell just like you - I love the things that you do

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do I give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me

[Chorus]


13. HOT

You're so good to me Baby Baby

I want to lock you up in my closet - Where no one's around
I want to put your hand in my pocket - Because you're allowed
I want to drive you into the corner - And kiss you without a sound
I want to stay this way forever - I'll say it loud
Now you're in - You can't get out

[Chorus]
You make me so hot
Make me wanna drop
You're 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 never said
And I will let you do anything - Again and again
Now you're in - You can't get out

[Chorus]

Kiss me gently
Always I know
Hold me - Love me
Don't ever go

You make me so hot
Make me wanna drop
You're 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

[Chorus]

You're so good


14. THE BEST DAMN THING

Let me hear you say hey hey hey
Alright
Now let me hear you say 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

[Chorus]
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
And yeah yeah yeah I'm a lot to handle
You don't know trouble but 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

Alright Alright 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

[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

One two three four

Where are the hopes - Where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene
When do you think they'll finally see

[Chorus]

Let me hear you say hey hey hey
Alright
Now let me hear you say hey hey ho

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


15. ALICE

Tripping out
Spinning around
I'm underground
I fell down
Yeah I fell down
I'm freaking out
So where am I now?
Upside down
And I can't stop it now
You can't stop me now

[Chorus]
I - I'll get by
I - I'll survive
When the world's crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me?
I - I won't cry

I'll play the game
But I can't stay
I've got my head on straight
And I'm not gonna change
I'm not gonna change
I'll win the race
Keep up with the pace
Today's the day
That I start to pray
You can't get in my way

[Chorus]

I found myself in Wonderland
Get back on my feet again
Is this real?
Is this pretend?
I'll take a stand until the end

[Chorus] [x2]


16. WHAT THE HELL

You say that I'm messing with your head
All 'cause I was making out with your friend
Love hurts whether it's right or wrong
I can't stop 'cause I'm having too much fun

[Pre-Chorus]
You're on your knees
Begging please
"Stay with me"
But honestly
I just need to be a little crazy

[Chorus]
All my life I've been good but now
I'm thinking "What the hell"
All I want is to mess around
And I don't really care about
If you love me - If you hate me
You can't save me Baby Baby
All my life I've been good but now
"What the hell"

What - What - What - What the hell?

So what if I go out on a million dates
You never call or listen to me anyway
I'd rather rage then sit around and wait all day
Don't get me wrong - I just need some time to play

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

You say that I'm messing with your head
Boi, I like messing in your bed
Yeah I am messing with your head
When I'm messing with you in bed

All my life I've been good but now
I'm thinking "What the hell"
All I want is to mess around
And I don't really care about

[Chorus]


17. SMILE

You know that I'm a crazy bitch
I do what I want when I feel like it
All I wanna do is lose control
But you don't really give a shit
You go with it - Go with it - Go with it
'Cause you're fucking crazy rock 'n roll

[Pre-Chorus]
You said "Hey what's your name?"
It took one look and now I'm not the same
Yeah you said "Hey" and since that day
You stole my heart and you're the one to blame

[Chorus]
And that's why I smile
It's been a while
Since every day and everything has felt this right
And now - You turn it all around
And suddenly you're all I need
The reason why I smile

Last night I blacked out I think
What did you - What did you put in my drink?
I remember making out and then
I woke up with a new tattoo
Your name was on me and my name was on you
I would do it all over again

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

The reason why I smile

[x2]
You know that I'm a crazy bitch
I do what I want when I feel like it
All I wanna do is lose control

[Chorus]

The reason why I smile
The reason why I smile


18. WISH YOU WERE HERE

I can be tough - I can be strong
But with you - It's not like that at all
There's a girl that gives a shit
Behind this wall - You just walk through it

And I remember all those crazy things you said
You left them running though my head
You're always there - You're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it just went with it
You're always there - You're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here

[Chorus]
Damn - Damn - Damn
What I'd do to have you here, here, here
I wish you were here
Damn - Damn - Damn
What I'd do to have you near, near, near
I wish you were here

I love the way you are
It's who I am - Don't have to try hard
We always say, say it like it is
And the truth is that I really miss

All those crazy things you said
You left them running though my head
You're always there - You're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it just went with it
You're always there - You're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here

[Chorus]

No - I don't wanna let go - I just wanna let you know
That I never wanna let go - Let go
No - I don't wanna let go - I just wanna let you know
That I never wanna let go - Let go - Let go ...

[Chorus] [x2]


19. ALONE

Hey man
Tell me what were you thinking
What the hell were you saying?
Oh come on now - Stop!
And think about it
Hey now
Maybe you should just listen
Maybe you should stop talking for a second
Shut up - Listen to me

[Chorus]
You're so obvious
You're so oblivious
And now you wonder why
You're the one alone
So don't apologize
You don't even realize
You screwed it up this time
Now you're the one alone

Hey bro
I'm just trying to let you know
You really think that you're special
Oh come on now
I've seen so much better
Hey there
Did you actually think that I cared?
Don't know if you want to go there
Oh come on now
Keep on - Keep on dreaming

[Chorus]

If you want to be my
Uh Uh Oh
You know you can't play games
And you know what I mean
Sorry but you don't get my
My Uh Uh
I'm gone
You're still dreaming about me
Over and over and over and over Yeah

[Chorus] [x2]

Alone


20. I WILL BE

There's nothing I could say to you
Nothing I could ever do to make you see
What you mean to me
All the pain the tears I cried
Still you never said goodbye
And now I know
How far you'd go

I know I let you down
But it's not like that now
This time I'll never let you go

[Chorus]
I will be all that you want
And get myself 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 everything okay

I thought that I had everything
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 will never let you go

[Chorus]

'Cause without 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 without you
I don't know what I'd do
I could never ever live a day without you
Here with me
Do you see?
You're all I need

[Chorus]

I will be all that you want
And get myself together
'Cause you keep me from falling apart
And all my life
You know I'll be with you forever
To get you through the day
And make everything okay


21. GET OVER IT

Slipping down a slide
I did enjoy the ride
Don't know what to decide
You lied to me
You looked me in the eye
It took me by surprise
Now are you gratified?
You cried to me

La La La La La

[Chorus]
Don't turn around
I'm sick and I'm tired of your face
Don't make this worse
You've already gone and got me mad
It's too bad I'm not sad
It's casting over
It's just one of those things
You'll have to get over it

When I was feeling down
You'd start to hang around
And then I found your hands
All over me
And that was out of bounds
You filthy rotten hound
It's better than it sounds
Believe me

La La La La La

[Chorus]

Hey - You gotta get over
Hey - You gotta get over it

It's too bad I'm not sad
It's casting over
It's just one of those things
You'll have to get over it

Don't turn around
I'm sick and I'm tired of your face
Don't make this worse
You've already gone and got me mad

[Chorus]

You'll have to get over it
