Who can do, don't want to; Who wants to, can't do; Who knows how to do, won't do it; Who does it, doesn't know how to; and, so, badly goes the world.

Just Because
Just because you did
Doesn't mean that you should
Just because you can
Doesn't mean that you could
Just because you are able
Doesn't mean you would
Just because you sat
Doesn't mean you should‘ve stood.
Just because you spoke
Doesn't mean that you thought
Just because you looked
Doesn't mean that you sought
Just because you argued
Doesn't mean that you fought
Just because you dreamed
Doesn't mean that you wished not.
Just because you cried
Doesn't mean that you wept
Just because you had
Doesn't mean that you kept
Just because you cleaned
Doesn't mean that you swept
Just because you said yes
Doesn't mean that you accept.
Just because you gathered
Doesn't mean that you own
Just because you gave up
Doesn't mean that you were alone
Just because you saw
Doesn't mean that you were shown
Just because you expiate
Doesn't mean you should atone.
Just because your old
Doesn't mean that you have flaws
Just because you won
Doesn't mean you have to applause
Just because you waited
Doesn't mean that you paused
Just because you were you
Doesn't mean anything, because.

I Want Someone Badly
(n.larson)
Jeff is lead vocalist in this song, performed by the shudder to think for first love, last rites soundtrack
Now I want someone badly
Got a girl here tonight
Want someone new
Someone new
But little cry wants someone badly
Wanna know if this is a badly some need (? )
(I want know)
I want know
Am I sure that I heard you right
I want to know
If youre leaving just do it tonight
Now I want someone badly
To burn in here with me
But listen baby
cause I cry all over madly
Dont do anything do it for me
Ooh I wanna know
Am I sure that I have your love
I want know
If youre leaving just make sure its right
Now I want someone badly
Could it be true
That someone is you

Love
Love doesn’t live with a doubt.
If it can’t speak out loud
it looses it’s voice,
it can’t rejoice,
it can hear only noise.
Love doesn’t live with fears.
When fear appears love disappears.
When separated it suffers
and turns into the duffer.
Love doesn’t live without trust,
it will never last.
Without trust it looks ugly,
blackly, badly and madly.
It doesn’t feel protected,
in the eyes of darling it’s not reflected.
Love can only live when it’s fair,
when it doesn’t hide eyes,
when it doesn’t hide tears.
And now I would like to confess:
True love is always sure in success.

Fade To Black
FADE TO BLACK
You live your life day by day
You can't feel it's slipping away
It's like heaven where you never get bored
You self inflicted Rock'n roll whore
Can you feel it
Can you feel the clocks ticking away
The world doesn't change in a day
The world doesn't change it
The world doesn't change in a day
It makes me sick
to see
what you need
to breathe
It makes me sick
to see
what you need
the world doesn't change in a day
You've got a thousand wounds to heal
You gotta stop thinking nothing's for real
electric shock won't bring you back
You're fading baby
You fade to black
The world doesn't change in a day
The world doesn't change it
The world doesn't change in a day
It makes me sick
to see
what you need
to breathe
It makes me sick
to see
what you need
the world doesn't change in a day
It makes me sick
to see
what you need
to breathe
It makes me sick
to see
what you mean
to me
When you are the one inside
is it what you thought it'd be
I always knew you'd be a star
and now you are

Hugging School
Every one loves-
I am convinced of that,
it is just that
some do it so badly.
Perhaps we should have a Love School
so these sorts can practice up
on their hugging.
I know it sounds strange
but we have some of you
that can't
or won't do it
and when you do,
you do it badly.
Oh, you don't notice
but kids do.
A half-hearted hug-
body awry,
commits only a shoulder to it
is a hug gone bad
and a hug wasted.
The hug where contact is only at the cheek
is a hug that doesn't really exist.
So my point:
There's plenty of reluctant huggers out there
who don't know how bad they are
until
until
someone
just for fun
lays a real hug
on them.
Whoa!
They stand back,
recoil with awe
but give them a moment to think
you'll see
they'll see
'that was kinda nice
after all'
So go ahead
commit Huggery
you might get yourself and others
used to it in time.
If not
at least
you had fun.
.
Reach out.
lay one on me
sometime.

If you ever want something badly, let it go. If it comes back to you, then it's yours forever. If it doesn't, then it was never yours to begin with.

In this Rain of Fire
The memories of those blue nights
Are doing no good
I need no shelter
When I stand here and hurt myself
In this rain of fire
Those promises and dreams
You say, are now the past
Your words affect me no more
When I destroy my history
In this rain of fire
Tears don’t fall
Because the eyes now bleed
Bleed out all the love and trust
You broke it all and now my world burns
In this rain of fire
My mind doesn’t listen to me
Neither my heart does
So I accept the pain you have showered
And let you kill me
In this rain of fire
My heart doesn’t cry
For the fault ain’t mine
But it hurts even worse
Because it’s you who threw me down
In this rain of fire
Oh yes, it burns a lot
And yes it burns badly
But your betrayal doesn’t let me live
And so I call my end
In this rain of fire

The World Inside of Me
There's a world inside of me
That everybody doesn't see.
And this world is full of goodness
Contrast to where you might be.
In this world I'm not hungry.
In this world I'm not thirsty
In this world my heart's not empty
In this world I've already reach my dreams
But everybody cannot see.
For this world's just existing
inside of me.
There's a world inside of me
That everybody doesn't see.
(Waiting for the world to see,
waiting for the world to see.)

We Are Lost
album: one-armed bandit$
track: 09
I wanna climb up in the sky with you
To seize the stars and put them on your head
I wanna take you down
where the sun begins
a journey on the clouds once again
I wonder if I will ever see your face again
and the rest of my opinion is of no importance
guess I have made a choice
for us
we are lost
in this world
we are lost
in this time
we are lost
we decide
we are lost
we are lost, lost in our own world
It doesn't even matter if you like it or not
we are lost, lost in our own world
It doesn't even matter if you're happy or not
We are lost, lost in are own world
It doesn't even matter if you like it or not
We are lost, lost in our own world
It doesn't even matter if you're happy or not

Ordinary
Whose eyes am I behind?
I don't recognize anything that I see
Whose skin is this design?
I don't want this to be the way that you see me
I don't understand anything anymore
And this web that I'm tired of
Is taking me right up these walls
That I climb up to get to your story
It's anything but ordinary
And when the world is on its knees with me
It's fine
And when I come to the rescue
I get nothing but left behind
Everybody seems to be getting what they need
Where's mine?
'Cause you're what I need so badly
But I'm anything but ordinary
Can you save me from this world of mine?
Before I get myself arrested with this expectation
You are the one, look what you've done
What have you done?
This is not some kind of joke, you're just a kid
You weren't ready for what you did, no . . .
And when the world is on its knees with me
It's fine
And when I come to the rescue
I do it for you time after time
Everybody seems to be getting what they need
Where's mine?
'Cause you're what I need so badly
But I'm anything but ordinary
I think I'm trying to save the world for you
You've been saving me too
We could just stay in and save each other
I'm anything but ordinary
I'm anything but ordinary (ordinary . . .)

This Girl
I want so badly to be part of her world.
She's more precious than an ocean pearl.
I wish I could tell her how I feel.
I wish I could really let her know the deal.
If only we had the time to chill.
Where did this girl come from.
And they say nothing good is at fort drum.
If they dont see what Im seeing then they're just dumb.
What is it about this girl.
Is it her smile thats so cencer and loud.
Is it her talk or the attitude in her walk.
A girl like this is hard to find.
You could still she her beauty if you were blind.
Man this girl really blows my mind.
I wanna make this girl mine.
This girl leaves me guessin.
I feel like this girl is a blessin.
So badly I want her to be part of my world.
Yet Im still asking why This Girl.

Lonely Days
lonely I stay
what a lonely days
I even feel like sleeping on hay
while I sit on clay
I call her everyday
she doesn't reply on the same day
even she doesn't even leave me with a say
on the sick bed which I lay
I sit all lonely
as I think slowly
since she is punishing me badly
although my love is not vanishing quickly
I think of her sadly
as I remember all I did for her willingly
I hope she appreciates it happily
although now to her I look silly
she thinks I should give her a way
since I sit on a bay
in the early month of may
but I cant afford to give her a way
for her I will have to pay
as I sit and pray
although she thinks am doing a play
whenever she is away
