1. IN LOVE WITH A GIRL

So many people gonna say that they want you,
To try to get you thinking they really care,
But there's nothing like the warmth of the one who has put in the time and you know he's gonna be there,
Back your border when she knows someone crossed it,
Don't let nobody put you down, who you're with
Take the pain of protecting your name, from the crutch to the cane to the highwire

I'm in love with a girl who knows me better,
Fell for the woman just when I met her,
Took my sweet time when I was bitter,
Someone understands,
And she knows how to treat a fella right,
Give me that feeling every night,
Wants to make love when I wanna fight,
Now someone understand me,
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)

Out the many broken backdoors and windows,
Through the valley of the love of the lost,
Is a hole that is cut through the souls falling down from the thrones without leaving any windows,
But you drown in a piece for the moment,
The moment was over in time,
Then it's gone the hit and run the tactless one has a short life

I'm in love with a girl who knows me better,
Fell for the woman just when I met her,
Took my sweet time when I was bitter,
Someone understands,
And she knows how to treat a fella right,
Give me that feeling every night,
Wants to make love when I wanna fight,
Now someone understand me,
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)

Gonna tell you what you do to think you practice what you preach,
Now I know there's nothing we can't reach,
'cause the heart can't erase once it finds a place to be warm and welcome,
To be held in shelter

I'm in love with a girl who knows me better,
Fell for the woman just when I met her
Took my sweet time when I was bitter
Someone understands,
And she knows how to treat a fella right
Give me that feeling every night
Wants to make love when I wanna fight
Now someone understands me
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
I'm in love with a girl(I'm in love with)
Who knows me better
Wants to make love when I wanna fight
Now someone understand me


2. NEXT TO ME

Listen up destiny
I know you wanna get presse to me
So don’t be such a stone when I call you on the phone
Or I won't be using that number again

Maybe what you had was broke
You wanna get high and they don’t
So I had a drink 'cause it helped me think
Now you say I’ve been drinkin’ too much

But my hands start shakin’
And my hearts starts quakin’
Like a nightmare naked in school
And I wanna tell you

Wait a minute sister
I know I ain’t your mister yet
Just give me the chance and see
But you won’t even get next to me

What you wanna do now?
You’re gonna have to give somehow
And I've got that thing you need
But you won’t even get next to me

Once I get you in my grip
Follow my eyes to your hips
Don’t you pull away
You done it everyday
Just stay, why don’t you stay
Why don’t you stay, baby?

Put away your old disguise
You don’t want no other guys
We’re havin’ so much fun
I know you shouldn’t run
But you run, you just run
You just run, baby

Wait a minute sister
I know I ain’t your mister yet
Just give me a chance and see
But you won’t even get next to me

What you want to do now?
You’re gonna have to give somehow
And I've got that thing you need
But you won’t even get next to me

Me here, heart in hand
Offering, what I can
Patience, running thin
Come on girl, let me in

Wait a minute sister
I know I ain’t your mister yet
Just give me a chance and see
You won’t even get next to me

What you wanna do now?
You’re gonna have to give somehow
And I got that thing you need
But you won’t even get next to me

Wait a minute sister
I know I ain’t your mister yet
Gimme a chance and see
Oh but you won’t even get next to me

What you wanna do now?
Gonna have to give somehow
And I've got that thing you need
But you won’t even get next to me

You won’t get next to me
Why? Why why why?
Why why why why?
Ohh

Wait a minute
Ohh


3. CHEATED ON ME

I'm love-sick somewhere tonight
I'm love-sick somewhere tonight
I don't need writing on the wall
I've felt it for so long
Am I even on your mind
Or are you now in...

[Chorus:]

Someone else's eyes
Someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves
I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I think you cheated on me

I've been this love-sick before
I've felt just like this before
There was another just like you
I loved her for so long
But I had poison on my mind
And I drove her into...

[Chorus:]

Someone else's eyes
Someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves
I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I think she cheated on me

[Bridge]

I said I've had this sense before
But I left an open door
For this to walk into my life
And maybe I suspect too much
But it's just hard for me to trust
When I'm all wound up inside
I just drive you off and into...

[Chorus:]

Someone else's eyes
Someone else's arms
Someone else's obvious moves

I'm a jealous guy
I hear people talk
And it isn't hard to believe
I was never easy to please
And I think you cheated on me


4. I HAVE TO YOU THANK

Whenever I see you I need more
And I want you to stay 'til the end
One look at that smile and I'm all yours
Will you just smile at me again

[Chorus:]

I have you to thank for making me so
So hard to please because you treated me so
Good that no one else could hold your make-up
Because of you girl I never want to break up

The difference I'm feeling in my heart
Is the difference of loving or not
And under the stars and moon and sun
Is the perfect becoming of one

[Chorus:]

[Bridge]

If I told you that I loved like an ace
Then I'd be lying 'cause I've made some mistakes
But I'm trying with perfect faith
When I let you in
I began to win
And now I'm just all gold
After all I've done
And the road I've run
I want to thank you
I want to thank you

[Chorus:]

All I do when I think about it
Is thank you baby
Thank you baby
All I do when I think about it
Is thank you baby
I just want to thank you baby
I just want to
Thank you


5. COP STOP

"When your feathers are soaked and your eyes are too bloody to see,
and you pulled every punch that you had but there's one that you need,
then you've waited too long,
there's a hole in your heart,
and all you've become is emotionally overrun.

[CHORUS:]

Wishing wells were made to echo a dime,
the consequences are you keep on relying,
you've become a run and hide refugee,
baby I'm a cop, stop, put up your hands and surrender to me.

You're gonna get hooked if there's anything left I can do,
you've already disarmed it's your lasting alarm I pursue,
you can loosen those fists,
c'mon blow me a kiss,
you've been roughed up enough to deserve some relief from your troubles,
so I'm coming in.

[CHORUS:]

Otherwise, I would never tell you what to do despite,
any indecision though I know I'm right,
arguing was always my forte,
and one thing I can say is I won't tell you lies,
or treat you like a rental car like other guys,
and if you think I'm crazy find an alibi,
cause you will need some evidence to show.

[CHORUS:]

Baby I'm a cop, stop, put up your hands and surrender to me.


6. YOUNG LOVE

There's no need to beg babe
That's my open pocket
You take the money from me
I can scrounge
Gave me a fever that will not come down
Oh babe!
You're a young woman cast aside
Ostracized
Left on the sidewalk of my lonely life

[Chorus:]

For the young lovers
Taking the hill
One plants a flag
While the other is killed
When the wine pours
We raise our cups
Young love is sacrifice
Young love is tough
Young love is innocent
Young love is us

What did I get into
Now everything is untrue
Oh, your eyes tell the lies
Of the lines that you said
And now that I love you
Oh, I wish we'd never met
Why wait?

Woman I'm taking risks here
That no one dared
And you're scared
Scared of the bottom
Afraid of the stairs

[Chorus:]

Someone
I saw someone
And fell in love with a face
And it scares me to let her go
Still want her even though
I get less than she takes


7. MEDICATE THE KIDS

Tell 'em, "Say no to drugs"
"Substances make you dumb"
Then you say, "give 'em some"
Are you the victim
Of this experience
Child experiment
Teacher's predicament?
You're in THE SYSTEM

And if you don't walk the line
You can walk the plank
Your older brother (government)
Wants to control your mind
You're more useful blank

[Pre-chorus:]

Medicate the kids
Feathers turn to quills
Pump 'em full of training fluids
Powders and pills
There's nothing you can't flush out
And nothing you can't kill

[Chorus:]

Why don't you just back off of us
Before we go crazy?
I'm gonna tell you,
"No way,
This ain't fair play,
Just don't medicate me"

Tell 'em, "Say no to drugs"
"Substances make you dumb"
Unless you get 'em from
Someone who loves you
One who knows best for you
Paid for those tests for you
Knows how to get you through
When it's above you
And you can't get on top
Cause it's high to climb,
You hear them saying,
"Don't make me call the cops"
Every other time

[Pre-chorus:]

[Chorus:]

[Bridge]

And there's a long line
Flowing from prescription aisles
Filed through legal means
So we can alter the child
For his protection
Tie him to extension cords,
This is the age of discipline

[Chorus:]


8. RELATIVE

A flashlight
Isn't quite sunlight
But any light at all seems bright
When you're looking in the dark
A wet Dream
Isn't the real thing
It isn't really anything
But at least it makes a spark
And all is relative, relative
Everything is relative, yes it is

[Chorus:]

It's all about the way we recieve it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood, and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care

Pre-made isn't quite home made
But pre-made with a home name
Is almost just the same
Your girlfriend
Isn't your best friend
But any friend is best when
You're freezing in the rain
And all is relative, relative
Everything is relative, yes it is

[Chorus:]

You're either underweight or you're unfit
Underdressed or over zipped
Too social or you're just too shy
Too depressed or you're too high
Night to day
Day to night
Rich to poor
Black or white
All is relative
Everything is relative
All is relative

[Chorus:](X2)

All is relative
Everything is relative
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Everything is relative

All is relative
You care


9. SHE HOLDS A KEY

This ain't the kind of affair to make you dance about
But there's something to say for the things
You wouldn't regularly let out
At least this chase makes you feel new

[Chorus:]

She holds a key
Tight in her hand
Clutching his neck
She is breaking the man
Listen you sinner
I'm sinning too
Just wait until the darkness falls
So I can sin with you

You've run through the whole gamut of gameplay
The head-trip parade
Without any experience
You've become curious prey
So change your position
This decision you're making
Is digging a hole
Oh, and where you're headed
Only heaven knows

[Chorus:]

So set out your plans
Break down your walls
Count what you're blessed with
You've counted them all
There's something to save
But you have to search
You might not believe
But, believe me, it works,
Believe me it works, yes it does

[Chorus:]

She holds a key
Tight in her hand
Clutching his neck
She is breaking the man
Listen you sinner
I'm sinning too
Just wait until the darkness falls
So I can sin with you


10. UNTAMED

The letters you wrote me had hollow-point headers
If you think you've got it like that
Find somebody better
You said I need fixing
You numbered the stages
But I won't be living in one of your cages
Open your mind and understand...

[Chorus:]

When you're hard on me
It's not what I need
We were meant to be untamed
Up on my feet

Born to run free
And there's nobody taming me

I've outgrown the narrow, protective container
Designed to be opened
With your childish behavior
'Cause you're not the critic of personal purpose
And I'm just not willing to do community service
I don't know why you lay it on...

[Chorus:]

[Bridge]

You say - that I should lend a shoulder
Right now - 'cause your whole world is blowing up
Go ahead but I won't be your soldier
'Cause you're the one who started up
You're the one who started up...

[Chorus:]


11. LET IT GO

I can't live without you
Set my goals around you
Takes a little extra time
But it all works out

You're a shining ember
I'll be shining armor
Just look up into my eyes
I won't let you down

And I'll always be here
Yes, I'll always be here

[Chorus:]

Let it go
Settle into me
Let it go
Let it all go

Except for me
I'm the one you found
Just hold on
Hold onto me now

Why don't we play hooky?
We could both get lucky
Better to get lucky than to go to work today

We don't have to shower
You won't wait in traffic
Take our daily panic and we'll put it all away

And we'll always be near
We should always be near

[Chorus:]

Don't you know you're the one for me
After all, anyone can see


12. WE BELONG TOGETHER

We belong together
Like the open seas and shores
Wedded by the planet force
We've all been spoken for

[VERSE 1:]

The hammer may strike, be dead on the ground.
A net to my hand, a cross on his crown.
We're done if, who we're undone,
Finished if who we are incomplete.
As one we are everything,
We are everything we need.

[Chorus:]

We belong together
Like the open seas and shores
Wedded by the planet force
We've all been spoken for

[VERSE 2:]

What good is a life, with no one to share,
The light of the moon, the honor of a swear.
We can try to live the way in which you speak,
Taste the milk of your mother earth's love,
Spread the word of consciencness you see,
We are everything we need

[Chorus:]

We belong together
Like the open seas and shores
Wedded by the planet force
We've all been spoken for

All this indecision
All this independent strength
Still
We've got our hearts on safe
We've got our hearts on safe

Someday when you're lonley,
Sometime after all this bliss,
Somewhere lost in emptiness,
I hope you find this gift...
I hope you find this gift..
I hope you find this gift.
