1. FOUR

She wakes up lonely
She wakes up lonely
She hangs a picture by the phone
She hangs a picture by the phone
Yeah, she doesn't think we're gonna make it
But when I'm home we're sleeping naked
And we pretend that we're in love
She wakes up lonely
And she telephones me
To ask me if I'm coming home
She says "Will you be coming home?"
Yeah, She doesn't think we're gonna make it
But when I'm home we're sleeping naked
And we pretend that we're in love
it was different when we thought that we wanted the same thing
everything was figured out
and now it doesn't make much sense
yeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhh
it's just another thing she can't get
she doesn't think we're gonna make it
but when i'm home we're sleeping naked
and we pretend that we're in love yeeeeeeeaaaaahh
she likes to think we're in love
she like to think that we're in love


2. MY OWN WORST ENEMY

Can we forget about the things I said when I was drunk?
I didn't mean to call you that
I can't remember what was said or what you threw at me
Please tell me...

Please tell me why my car is in the front yard,
And I'm sleeping with my clothes on
I came in through the window last night
And you're gone, gone

It's no surprise to me
I am my own worst enemy
'Cause every now and then I kick the living shit out of me
The smoke alarm is going off, and there's a cigarette
Still burning,

Please tell me why my car is in the front yard
And I'm sleeping with my clothes on
I came in through the window last night
And you're gone, gone

Please tell me why my car is in the front yard
And I'm sleeping with my clothes on
I came in through the window last night

It's no surprise to me
I am my own worst enemy
'Cause every now and then I kick the living shit out of me

Can we forget about the things I said when I was drunk?
I didn't mean to call you that


3. DOWN

We're lookin' money and she's super clean
The fins are flying sculpted silver gleam
Where is she going with a punk like this
I like the looks it gets, I like the way it hits
And I know that she'll be down
Wherever we go
Down for a ride
Ready to drive all night
Ready to drive all night
With no place in mind
Tank's full or empty I can never tell
Fucked up my g-whites parking parallel
Get in the middle and get in from my side
I like the shape of it, I like the way it fits
And she never lets me down
Whenever we go
Down for a ride
Ready to drive all night
Ready to drive all night
She likes when we go
Down for a ride
Ready to drive all night
Ready to drive all night
With no place in mind
It always takes me to a place that I belong
Another time, another place that I belong
It always takes me to a place that I belong
Another time, another place that I belong
And I know that she'll be down
Wherever we go
Down for a ride
Ready to drive all night
Ready to drive all night
She likes when we go
Down for a ride
Ready to drive all night
Ready to drive all night
With no place in mind


4. MISERABLE

You make me come
You make me complete
You make me completely miserable
Stuck to a chair
Watchin' this story about me
Everything goes by so fast
Making my head spin
Used up all of my friends
Who needs them when you mean everything
I love the things that we should fear
I'm not afraid of being here
So much the same
It makes me helpless alone
Nothing to share
Why should I care if your near me
Give up all of my plans
But who needs them
When you mean everthing
I love the things that we should fear
I'm not afraid of being here
So much the same
You make me helpless alone
Yeah, yeah..You make me come
Yeah, yeah..You make me complete
Yeah, yeah..You make me completely miserable
I love the things that we should fear
I'm not afraid of being here
So much the same
It makes me helpless alone
You make me come
You make me complete
You make me completely miserable
Yeah, yeah..You make me come
Yeah, yeah..You make me complete
Yeah, yeah..You make me completely miserable


5. NO BIG THING

If you just want to be my friend
Why do you keep calling me then?
It's better that I never see you
Will I ever see you again?
It's alright; My heart isn't broken
It's alright; I'm feeling no pain
It's alright; I'm not going crazy
It's alright; It's no big thing
No big thing


6. ZIP-LOCK

I've been stealing
Time where I can get it from
I've been losing
Grip on what I used to hold
If I could get another chance
I'd put it in a zip-loc bag
And keep it in my pocket
Keep it in my pocket
Keep it in my pocket
Tell me
When I start to blow it would you
Show me
What I need to do before you
Hate me
I could never live with that so
Tell me
Before you're better off without me
Before you're better off without me
I've been watching you
Sleeping with a troubled look
I'm sure your bad dreams
Are probably all about me
And better off without me
If I could get another chance
I'd put it in a ziploc bag
And keep it in my pocket
Keep it in my pocket
Keep it in my pocket
Tell me
When I start to blow it would you
Show me
What I need to do before you
Hate me
I could never live with that so
Tell me
Before you're better off without me
Before you're better off without me
Well I've been losing
Grip on what I used to hold
I don't want you
To be better off without me
If I could get another chance
I'd put it in a ziploc bag
And keep it in my pocket
Keep it in my pocket
Keep it in my pocket
Tell me
When I start to blow it would you
Show me
Tell me
What I need to do before you
Hate me
Tell me
Cuz I could never live with that so
Help me
Before you're better off without me


7. LOVELY DAY

Shake it up and throw it
Roll it up and smoke it
No one knows what it's worth
Where it's going
Tired moneymakers
Boring conversators, keep it up
We all know where you blow it
And now I live in a world that I call my own
It's always nice when no one's home
Give it a time and a place if you don't ask what it's for
It's another world but it's something more than ordinary
And I live in a world that I call my own
It's always nice when no one's home
Give it a time and a place if you don't ask what it's for
It's another world but it's something more than ordinary
Such a lovely day and it's nothing more than ordinary
It's another world but it's something more than ordinary
Such a lovely day and it's nothing more than ordinary living
That you're living
Such a lovely day and it's nothing more than ordinary living
That you're living
Waking up and rollin'
Loaded up and flowing creeping out
We all know
Where you're going
Trying to ignore it
What you're looking for and no one knows
What its worth
Where it's going
And now I live in a world that I call my own
It's always nice when no one's home
Give it a time and a place if you don't ask what it's for
It's another world but it's something more than ordinary
Such a lovely day and it's nothing more than ordinary
It's another world but it's something more than ordinary living
That I'm living


8. PERFECT ONE

I'm an ordinary man
With an ordinary life
Does she know that I'm alive
Man she's really something else
You're the perfect one
And I don't expect a thing from you at all
You're the perfect one
And I can't even breathe
You are, so unpredictable
Sometimes, I'd like to be that way
Your charm, so irresistable
You are really something else
You're the perfect one
And I don't expect a thing from you at all
You're the perfect one
And I can't even breathe
I get weak when she's around
I can't speak when she's around
Yeah, she turns me upside down
Man she's really something else
Yeaaah
You're the perfect one
And I don't expect a thing from you at all
You are everything
That I never knew I've always wanted
You're the perfect one
And I don't expect a thing from you at all
You're the perfect one
And I can't even breathe
I'm an ordinary man


9. QUICKSAND

When I bring it up
You shut me out
So I keep on writing letters to myself
Are you doing alright
Are you burning out
Are you happy with the way it turned
Running out of you
Running out of you
And I know you'll be running out of me
Well are you hold up
Are you caving in
Are you happy with the way things have been
Running out of you
Running out of you
And I know you'll be running out of me
When it starts sinking in
Like quicksand
I can't stand
Watching the best of me
Go down with
The worst of
When it starts sinking in
Like quicksand
I can't stand
Watching the best of me
Go down with
The worst of you
Now are you doing alright
Are you burning out
Are you happy with the way things turned out
Running out of you
Running out of you
And I know you'd be running out of me
Running out of you
I'm running out of you
And I know you'd be running out of me


10. HAPPY

It wouldn't be so bad
If I could take a good thing and make it last
Money for the rent
Time that I spent, me and my girlfriend
My heart is broken down again
I blame it on myself
It wouldn't be so bad
If I could take a good thing and make it last
Money in the bank
Gas in the tank, me and my girlfriend
I'm crawling through the crowd again
And I'm looking for myself
It makes me mad
Cuz I wanna be happy so bad
It makes me mad
Cuz I wanna be happy so bad
You don't even care
Stepping out
Take it in
Starting over again Falling out
Starting over
It makes me mad
Cuz I wanna be happy so bad
It makes me mad
Cuz I wanna be happy
It makes me mad
Cuz I wanna be happy so bad
It makes me mad
Cuz I wanna be happy so bad
It makes me mad
I wanna be happy so bad
It makes me mad
I wanna be happy so bad


11. THE BEST IS YET TO COME UNDONE

It's behind you and
It's in your face
Close your eyes
Selling years of their
Smoke and mirrors and
Open minds
And they try to find a way to make me something that
I'm not
I touched the world
I felt the sun
I know the best is yet to come undone
I looked around
At everyone
I know the best is yet to come undone
The best is yet to come undone
It's so obvious
That the promise
Keeps me here
Painting pictures where
All the colors Disappear And they try to find a way to make me something that I'm not
I touched the world
I felt the sun
I know the best is yet to come undone
I looked around
At everyone
I know the best is yet to come undone
The best is yet to come undone
The best is yet to come undone
And I find my way out
And I find my way out
It's so obvious
That the promise
Keeps me here
Painting pictures where
All the colors Disappear
And they try to find a way to make me something that I'm not
I touched the world
I felt the sun
I know the best is yet to come undone
I looked around
At everyone
I know the best is yet to come undone
Touched the world
Felt the sun
I know the best is yet to come undone
I looked around
At everyone
I know the best is yet to come undone
The best is yet to come undone
The best is yet to come undone


12. A PLACE IN THE SUN

Gotta get that feeling
God I love this feeling
Someone come and stop me cuz this I'm winning
I should have left you when I was up
I should have left you when I was up
I should've had enought sense to
Get up and leave this town
I should've had enough sense to
It was a turn around
Walking through the golden sands I'm quenching my thirst
Jump into the fountain and I'm going head first
Lost in a place in the sun
And it's going down
It's going down
It's going down
It's going down
I should have left you when I was up
I should have left you when I was up
I should've had enought sense to
Get up and leave this town
I should've had enough sense to
It was a turn around
I should've had enought sense to
Get up and leave this town
I should've had enough sense to
It was a turn around
Lost in a place in the sun
And it's going down
It's going down
It's going down
It's going down
