Let's Go

Verse 1
What are we doing in this place?
If home is where the heart is
This aint it
Things change, so did we
We're wide awake now
Fireworks went off in our heads
It signalled that we've been living here for too long
And that we were no longer welcomed
We decided to leave this city
Once we're gone, we are never looking back

Verse 2
I've got your back
And I know you've got mine
That's why we're still friends
Friends till the end

Bridge
C'mon, let's go, let's go
Let's go, c'mon, let's go

Chorus 1
Let's get into the car and drive away
We'll be further away than we are today
Let's go

Chorus 2
Let's pack our bags and run away
We'll be further away than we are today
Let's not waste time
Let's fly away
We'll be further away than we are today
Let's go

If...

Verse 1
If you start to cry
I won't be there to comfort you
If bad things occur in your life
Then you deserve every bit of it
You act all high and mighty
You believe that you're better than everyone

Verse 2
If you become homeless
I won't provide you with any food or shelter
I'm sure you've got friends who can help you
If you don't, then you'll be forced to survive on the streets
You're a self-righteous bitch
Now you'll be the one who will suffer

Chorus 1
If you start to cry
I won't be there to comfort you
If you drown yourself in tears, I won't care

Chorus 2
If you ever become lonely
And need someone who can talk to
Don't call me
I will never care about you

Big Mouth

Verse 1
Nobody wants to be your friend
They stay as far away from you as possible
You're not someone who people respect and trust
You're a selfish, pathological liar

Verse 2
How does always being alone feel?
If you're depressed about it
Then that's what you deserve
Some would confide in you
Then you went against your word
You made promises that you never intended to keep

Bridge 1
You lied every day without a single regret
You showed no remorse
None at all

Bridge 2
Gossip came out of your mouth
Many rumours were started by you
It seems you didn't have anything better to do
Spreading secrets and lies hurt many people around you
But you don't care, you never did
You know nothing about honesty and empathy

Chorus
Liar...deceiver...stealer...big mouth
These words speak true of you

Inside Wants Out

Verse 1
My inside is like a dynamite
And anything can set it off
My anger, frustration, and sadness have the power to do so
I feel a war waging inside of me
And many of my soldiers are dying quickly
I'm trying to keep things under control
But my outer body is becoming weaker

Verse 2
Sometimes I lock myself inside my home
Whenever I feel tremors on my body
The barricades and brickwalls within me
Are tumbling down ever so quickly
My temperature is soaring through the roof
No measures that I take are full proof
My heart is pounding, my body's turning blue
Nothing that I go through is ever new

Chorus
My inside desperately wants out
At any time, it can escape
It feels like it's been trapped
So it goes through great lengths to be released

Same Place, Same Things

Verse 1
Waiting at a bus stop
Eating a fortune cookie
Smoking a cigarette
Reading a newspaper
Just a stranger among strangers
Looking at my watch as the bus arrives
sitting at the back as usual
If not at the sides, then in the middle
Glancing around, sometimes staring; which is rare
Waiting patiently as I get closer to my destination

Verse 2
Thinking about what happened yesterday
Recalling last week's events
Sometimes talking to myself
Looking to see if anyone noticed me
If they did, I just turn my head away
Assuring myself I'm as normal as anyone can be

Bridge
Travelling along the same route
Opening the same doors
Eating the same food day after day
Drinking the same beverages
Having the same songs being stuck in my mind
Basically following the same schedule without interruption
Seeing and avoiding the same people
Wondering if anything will change

Chorus
Same place, same things
Same location, same stuff

No Need To Argue

Verse 1
My heart knows I haven't been honest with you
But my mind tells me what I'm doing is natural
I started to feel uncomfortable
And the person who I was seeing felt that something was wrong
I thought my doubts would soon disappear
But they kept resurfacing each time I looked at you

Verse 2
I decided to tell you what was going on in my life
Even though it wouldn't be the best thing that you've heard
I could have not told you anything at all
But I felt that you deserved much more than that
I told the person I was with what I intended to do
Then I left without searching for a reason to stay

Bridge
When I finally told you that I was seeing someone
Any chance of us reconciling completely washed away

Chorus
There's no need to argue
Let's discuss our problem calmly
Listen to what I have to say to you
I know that you are angry with me
And you have every right to be
But don't jump to conclusions without knowing all the facts

Gone Again

Verse 1
I'm starting to get suspicious
I'm starting to have doubts
I ask myself what you do whenever I'm not around
I don't consider myself to be paranoid
I am only concerned
But is it for me or for you?

Verse 2
I want to search your apartment
But I don't know what I'm looking for
I want to ask you some questions
But I don't want to accuse you of being guilty
Something is telling me that I should go ahead
But what will I tell you if I find out that nothing's going on?

Bridge 1
Maybe I'm just reacting to all the many hours I spend alone
Maybe I'm starting to believe that I'm on to something
Maybe you're in trouble and you don't want to tell me
What I do know is that I'm feeling insecure about our relationship

Bridge 2
You're gone again and I'm left alone
I don't know what I should do
You're gone again and I'm left alone
I miss you as each hour passes by
You're gone again and I'm left alone
Why am I not use to this?

Chorus
You're gone again
And that's all I can think of
You're gone again
Why do you have to leave all the time?
I only hope you aren't doing anything that might upset me

Winners Never Quit

Verse 1
Winners never quit
They're very ambitious and extremely confident
Winners never quit

Verse 2
They set realistic goals for themselves
And try to achieve them
They don't stop until they've completed what they set out to do
That's how determined they are

Verse 3
Somebody might think that a glass containing water is half-empty
But winners have a different point of view
They see the glass as being half-full
That's how optimistic they are

Bridge
Winners are far from perfect
But they reach and sometimes surpass their potential
And if it means racing around the world
Then that's what they will do
They don't dwell on negativity
They get a boost by being positive
Striving to excel is what they do every day

Chorus
Winners never quit
They push themselves to reach new heights
They keep on trying until they succeed
Winners never quit

From Now On

Verse 1
Today is the beginning of my new attitude
I am sick and tired of all the stunts you always pull on me
I have tried to ignore you
But it's impossible
You're like an itch I keep on scratching
You will finally get the chance to see who you really are

Verse 2
If I confront you with all the bad things you've done
I am sure you will deny all of them
Why can't you just admit that you treated me with no respect?
What are you so afraid of?
I guarantee that you will not drop down and die
You think that you can boss me around
But all of that is going to change

Bridge
People like you make the world an unsafe place
You need to know what you are doing is wrong
You keep on kicking people even when they're down
You have to change yourself right now
If you don't, I'll do it for you
You're like an itch I keep on scratching
You will finally get the chance to see who you really are
You think that you can boss me around
But all of that is going to change

Chorus
From now on, I will treat you the same way
You treated me every day
From now on, you will get what you give
So don't be surprised if it seems harsh

Your Woman

Verse 1
Her face is symmetric
That's why it's so nice
Her eyes, nose and lips look perfect
I held her hand and it felt very soft
She takes good care of her skin

Verse 2
She's got the body of a supermodel
And nothing was added to it to make it better
You can say that she's one hundred perfect natural
I only hope that she will stay that way
Many other ladies have tried to look like her
Some almost do but that doesn't count
She doesn't change for anybody but herself
She's in control and knows where to go

Verse 3
I don't know what she sees in you
You're the opposite of who she is
I could be wrong
I really don't know what goes on behind closed doors

Chorus
Your woman us crazy and beautiful
She is young and restless
Not to mention bold and funny
If only she was interested in me
Your woman is kind and generous
She is cool and outgoing
Not to mention reliable and smart
If only she was interested in me
