1. I DON'T WANT TO KNOW (IF YOU DON'T WANT ME)

Hey!

I know where you live, yea
And I wanna live there too
I drive buy almost everyday, its not even really on my way
When am I gonna get to see you?

It won't be misunderstood
It won't do you any good
Think I'm not the one you could
But I know that you would

I don't wanna know if you don't want me, no
(Dont want me, no)
I dont wanna know if you dont want me, no

Hey!

I have a shirt that belongs to you
And I use it to guess all the things you do
I already met your mom and dad
Said I'm the best one you never had
And I think you should really reconsider

It won't be misunderstood
It won't do you any good
Think I'm not the one you could
But I know that you would

I don't wanna know if you don't want me, no
(Dont want me, no)
I dont wanna know if you dont want me, no

I watched you through the window last night
And I thought I saw a girl in the candlelight
You think thats fair after all I've done?
Restraining orders one by one
And I sure hope that was your sister

I guess you misunderstood
Didn't do you any good
That you thought I never could
Now you know thst I would
Now you know that I would
Now you know that I Would

I don't wanna know if you don't want me, no
(Dont want me, no)
I dont wanna know if you dont want me, no

2. FRIENDS LIKE MINE

C'mon and show me
That you really know me
So close so tight
At least for tonight

Turning silver and gold
Into rubber and glue
Not supposed to let it get to you
It's easy to say but hard to do

When you roll back into town
Theyll all be around
Just to show you
That friends like mine will never let you down
Until you hit the ground

And they dont know you

Take what you can borrow
But what about tomorrow
Just have to wait and see
Whats in it for me

Turning silver and gold
Into rubber and glue
Not supposed to let it get to you
It's easy to say but hard to do

When you roll back into town
Theyll all be around
Just to show you
That friends like mine will never let you down
Until you hit the ground

Your an open book
Here's a mirror
Take a look
Dont like what you see?
Dont come running to me

When you roll back into town
Theyll all be around
Just to show you
That friends like mine will never let you down
Until you hit the ground

And they dont know you
Friends like mine will never let you down
And they dont know you

3. DON'T BREAK ME DOWN

Don't break me, don't break me down
Can't you see, my hands on the ground?
I can't remember my name.
And I promise, it won't be the same

Did you steal it?
Can you feel it?
Cause I'm starting to feel it now,
So don't break me down

Don't break me, don't break me down
Don't bury, my words in the ground
I can't sleep at night,
And I know without me you're not alright

Can you taste?
Can you face it?
Cause I'm starting to face it now,
So don't break me down

I know I'm holding to tight
But just give me some time, and I'll get it right

*****

4. FALL BEHIND ME

I can't believe she bought it
She got too close and she caught it
Had a point but she forgot it
When you skip steps on the way up
The gaps have a way of catching up
And you cant cover that with makeup

Your gonna fall behind me
Your gonna cry and beg for mercy
Cause your not ready baby
And you got nothing on me

Now that I'm getting to know her
Part of me wants to show her
Who she's really screwing over
Cause she's got nothing real
Taking everything she can steal
Just like it was her last meal

Your gonna fall behind me
Your gonna cry and beg for mercy
Cause your not ready baby
And you got nothing on me
[x2]

How long is she gonna be around
And how long do we have to watch her dumb it down
Cause when its cheap it fades fast
And how long does she think its gonna last?

Your gonna fall behind me
Your gonna cry and beg for mercy
Cause your not ready baby
And you got nothing on me

Your gonna fall behind me
Your gonna cry and beg for mercy
Cause your not ready baby
And you got nothing on me
And you got nothng on me
And you got nothing on me
And you got nothing on me

5. IS THAT ALL YOU GOT FOR ME

Oh you've got lights they burn out for you
And you've got eyes, cocaine
white and blue
All you know is wine and good friends
Cos luck like yours, it never ends

Or did you think it'd last forever?

Is that it, is that all you got for me?
Justa copy of a copy
I won't let you have it for free free free

A pick me up and then you're off again
The crowd's there to see if you'll sink or swim
They laugh and cheer
when you crash and burn
But they'll be back for your big return
(they'll never learn)

Watch the smoke fade,
you finally got your space
Wander the streets, but
no one knows your face
Your senior slump, it was a flop
So give it up down to the top

*****

6. IT'S SO HARD

I'm not obsessed, I could care less
I just want to get you undressed
The less you talk, the more you say
Don't let words get in the way

It's so hard to be on your own
When your holdin' it all alone
And you've been workin' it to the bone
It's so hard, it's so hard

You're just another guy
with a wonderin' eye
And I'm just a Gemini
I don't see what's the harm
If we don't set off the alarm

Don't mind if I do
There's something I want to show you
Don't mind if you don't
Remember this baby cause I won't

7. THE GOLD MEDAL

So what were you expecting
Every song has a perfect ending
But that's not good enough
Not good enough for you

I thought you opened up your gates
You claim that everyone relates
What was I thinking when I thought
That meant me too

I'll take note
Put on my coat
Leave you to read what I wrote
So sorry you never wanted me
But that's what made me want the gold medal

Cheer on the circus clowns
"This is the best of the towns"
What do you get from them
That you couldn't get from me?

It's where I got my start
But not where I left my heart
I take that with me
Now I've seen what's underneath

I'll take note
Put on my coat
Leave you to read what I wrote
So sorry you never wanted me
But that's what made me want the gold medal

*****

8. OUT OF MY HANDS

I'm sick of the state we're in
And every little thread is wearing thin
I've been livin' life in the slow lane
But somethings got to change

What time is it where you are
You're in bed, I'm at a bar
Right now opposites subtract
And I don't know if I can bridge the gap

The phone bills, and missed calls, have
got us they've got us

At the mercy of a mile
In no place to make demands
I'll make it worth your while
But right now it's out of my hands
It's out of my hands

Ode to sleep pillows and sheets
The last place I'd expect us to meet
I'll be back before you know
So don't worry if you're running low
The phone bills, and missed calls, have
got us, they've got us hanging

*****

9. IT TAKES ONE TON KNOW ONE

Burned your way in under my skin
When when I wasn't lookin'

It's so easy to talk about me
When I'm not around to say

I may not be a man
But you're not one either
It takes one to know one
Who's calling names, and pointing fingers
Takes on to know one

Cut me then blame me for bleeding
Won't see me begging and pleading

Tell me what I' supposed to do, that's
Funny coming from you
Not a boy not yet a man, never even
Done time in a van
You don't know what you're talkin' about
It's time somebody called you out
Am I speaking English
Or is this just a deathwish?!

Just because we're face to face,
Dosen't mean that we're eye to eye

I may not be a man
But you're not one either
It takes one to know one
Who's calling names, and pointing fingers
Takes on to know one
It's age before beauty
And you got neither
It takes one to know one

*****

10. REVOLVER

Half cocked and fully loaded
Not even trying to sugar coat it
You're aimed at me
but you're shooting blanks
And it dosen't hurt thanks but no thanks

But it's a matter of time
Till you get yours, and I get mine
It might not be me
But you're gonna answer to
somebody Revolver

You've got one foot in your mouth,
and one foot in the grave
You were digging a hole,
and now you're digging a cave

It's not that funny anymore
By the time you wake up
sobered up and sore

I left my comebacks at the door
I didn't know what I was in for
You're deeper than you've ever been before

*****

11. HAVE YOU NO PRIDE

Shoe gazers in blazers
Introduce you to razors, so that
The Wilson twins- they can see you
In all your glory, in all your glory

[Chorus:]
Don't you care what all the people say
You don't care you're gonna do it any way
All eyes are on you and they're burning holes till
There's no one left inside
Have you no pride

How many pairs do you own
How many patches have you
sewn on your sleeve
Now don't you dare mend the holes
They tell your story yeah tell your story
(sell your story)

[Chorus]

What do you write in that journal
Some kind of infernal poetry
So that I'll offer my help
But don't you worry, don't you worry

[Chorus]

Let's take a walk through the crowd
Let's take a walk through the crowd
Let's take a walk through the crowd
Let's take a walk through the crowd
Let's take a walk through the crowd
