Skin O My Teeth
I had wrists donning slits
Flowing constantly
My broken body in a wreck
Wrapped around a tree
A crosswalk hit and run
The finish line for me
People clutter in the gutter
Take a look and see
/chorus/
No escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin o my teeth
My blood flows through the streets
Deluge from the wounds
Empty jars of sleeping pills
On the dresser of my room
My wet brain neighbor cranes
His neck to see in time,
The white lights a train
Bearing down on me
/chorus/
I wont feel the hurt
Im not trash any longer
That that doesnt kill me
Only makes me stronger
I need a ride to the morgue
Thats what 911 is for
So, tag my toe and dont forget
Ooh to close the drawer
/chorus/

The Power Of Love
The power of love is a curious thing
Make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a hawk to a little white dove
More than a feeling thats the power of love
Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream
Stronger and harder than a bad girls dream
Make a bad one good make a wrong one right
Power of love that keeps you home at night
Chorus 1 :
You dont need money, dont take fame
Dont need no credit card to ride this train
Its strong and its sudden and its cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
Thats the power of love
Thats the power of love
First time you feel it, it might make you sad
Next time you feel it it might make you mad
But youll be glad baby when youve found
Thats the power makes the world goround
Chorus 2 :
And it dont take money, dont take fame
Dont need no credit card to ride this train
Its strong and its sudden it can be cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
They say that all in love is fair
Yeah, but you dont care
But you know what to do
When it gets hold of you
And with a little help from above
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Can you feel it ?
Hmmm
Chorus 3 :
It dont take money and it dont take fame
Dont need no credit card to ride this train
Tougher than diamonds and stronger than steel
You wont feel nothin till you feel
You feel the power, just the power of love
Thats the power, thats the power of love
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Feel the power of love

Stronger - Kelly Clarkson
vs.1 You know the bed feels warmer,
Sleeping here alone.
You know I dream in color,
And do the things I want.
You think you got the best of me,
Think you've had the last laugh.
Bet you think that everything good is gone,
Think you left me broken down.
Think that I'd come running back,
Baby you don't know me, cause you're dead wrong.
(chorus)
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger,
Stand a little taller,
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone.
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter,
Footsteps even lighter,
Doesn't mean I'm over cause you're gone.
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger,
Just me, myself and I.
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger,
Stand a little taller,
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone.
vs.2 You heard that I was starting over with someone new,
They told you I was moving on, over you.
You didn't think that I'd come back,
I'd come back swinging.
You try to break me, but you see
(chorus)
Thanks to you I got a new thing started,
Thanks to you I'm not the broken-hearted.
Thanks to you I'm finally thinking about me,
You know in the end the day you left was just my beginning
In the end...

Suicide Note, Part I
Cheap cocaine, a dry inhale, the pills that kill and take
the pain away
Diet of life, shelter without, the face that cannot
see inside yours and mine
Pre-chorus:
When I'm hiding, when I need it, it lets me
breathe, for our handle on this life, I don't believe
this time
Chorus:
Would you look at me now?
Can you tell I'm a man?
With these scars on my wrists
To prove I'll try again
Try to die again, try to live through this night
Try to die again.....
Forever fooling, free and using, sliding down the slide that breaks a will
Mothers angel, getting smarter, how smart are
you to regress unfulfilled? It's a damn shame, but who's to blame?

Sunday morning you wake up
Some people go to church - perhaps
Same time we drink sugar tea
Have our third breakfast
Wake up at three

Wait for the savior
But why?

Forget all that

Thats trash - say

Look at you watch

The moment when you lock your room
Pam is walkin, pam is talkin
Savin lives on the screen
And that my boy makes you forget

My heart is numb, it still beats
Nothing to say

My heart is still in bloom
Theres nothing to say

I look across these city streets
My heart is cold it beats
30th of may

And no comfort I can find
For the loved ones left behind
They wont tear us apart x4

Tell Me Again
Looking at you
And all that weve been through
I just cant forget
Whats going through your head?
So I read what you left on the bed
Different signs, havent said
Its easier to
Try to kill my pain,
My pain, I hate
Its a world affair
So then I cant explain
To you, because the truth
Is something you cant take
*Tell me again
Whats wrong with me?
Why wont you depend on me now?
Just let it happen again
Tell me again
Whats wrong?
That I just dont feel the need to belong
This is no means to an end
Im not what you see, nooo
Been with a few
Oh but not quite like you
And youre crazy like me
What more can I ask for
So you need more
Everybody gets bored
I like all that I see
Its easier to
Try to kill my pain,
My pain, I hate
Its a world affair
So then I cant explain
To you, because the truth
Is something you cant take
[Chorus]
Ill burn you
And turn you
In you all
The others you had left
Alone with
No one is such a shame
You just dont know me yet
And now I think so much about me and you
I couldnt hurt you now
I never got to get up
I promise you
[Chorus]
Cuz Im not what you see
I wont try to be nooo

First Impression
(taylor, rhodes, le bon, cuccurrullo, campbell)

He turns on the animal, its that time of day,
Here comes little johnny from the back streets of the uk
Hes got the answer it doesnt go away
Hes gonna treat you right
Yeah hes gonna change the world tonight (world tonight)
The lasting first impression, is what youre looking for!
I said oh!,
Is that your first impression?
And is that good enough for you?
He dont want illusions
A power glory ride,
Doesnt run with the neighborhood shadows -
Wanna let your body slide
He wont give up, and he wont give in
And he wont let up until he gets inside your pretty skin
(I said ohh!)

He turns on the animal its that time of day,
To make a little honey in the backstreets of the uk
And he loves the noise, and he loves to play
Just living here and now boys cuz tomorrows on the way

Good enough for you, (good enough for you)
Enough for you, (enough for you)
And is that good enough for you?
Good enough for you, (good enough for you)

Seize the possibility
To seize the opportunity
To seize the possibility
To turn on the animal

Tired
You been talking for an hour
And I swear to God that I cant hear a word you say
So would you come to me, come to me
I get caught up in the waves of conversation, they wash over me
And they cover me, they cover me
Chorus 1:
Should I just pack my things and leave
Would I be a bigger man if i
I build a wall around your heart, dare you to come in
I can lie to you, and say I didnt mean it
But hurts a funny thing and
It makes you stronger
Chorus 2:
Where all is nothing in moderation
Its a dirty feeling, it makes you stronger
Well I believe Im just plain tired
Theres a funny way your lip shakes
When I know that youve been lying and it touches me,
Mmmm....said it comforts me, it comforts me
Well I guess I should be satisfied cause you say you love me half the time
Well Ill settle there, we can build from there, build from there
Would you be happier if I was only half the man I am
You could shout at me, dare me to come in
I can lie to you, and say I didnt mean it,
But it really doesnt matter when you stop to think about it
(chorus 2)
Chorus 3:
Say the end is coming she dont even feel it,
Its a strange sensation, Im almost happy
Well I believe Im just plain tired

Dont Walk Away
Dont walk away
See I just cant find the right thing to say
I tried but all my pain gets in the way
Tell me what I have to do so youll stay
Should I get down on my knees and pray
Chorus 1:
And how can I stop losing you
How can I begin to say
When theres nothing left to do but walk away
I close my eyes
Just to try and see you smile one more time
But its been so long now all I do is cry
Cant we find some love to take this away
cause the pain gets stronger every day
Chorus 2:
How can I begin again
How am I to understand
When theres nothing left to do but walk away
See now why
All my dreams been broken
I dont know where were going
Everything we said and all we done now
Dont let go, I dont wanna walk away
Now why
All my dreams are broken
Dont know where were going
Everything begins to set us free
Cant you see, I dont wanna walk away
If you go, I wont forget you girl
Cant you see that you will always be
Even though I had to let you go
Theres nothing left to do
Dont walk away

White Knuckles
White knuckles came down to put the frighteners on
I believe shes the one that hes got his heart set on
It doesnt matter if your face doesnt fit
Theres no charge for changing it
Oooh ooh
What are you doing
You see right through him
You dont have to take it when he gets cruel
Chorus:
White knuckles on black and blue skin
(1,4) you dont have to take it so you just give in
(2,3) he didnt mean to hit her but she kept laughing
White knuckles sweatin on the headboard
He never found out what the kisser was for
Losing face with the boys while shes whispering in his ear
They never found out why they called it laughing gear
Maybe they werent loved when they were young
Maybe they should be hung by their tongues
Oooh ooh
Under the blankets with the body jerk
He needs her like the axe needs the turkey
Making a mockery of his fancy footwork
Chorus
Theres always someone new to toy with when the penny drops in the slot
Now its all petty crime on the news at nine
But its all shes got
Love on the never never dreams dont come cheap
I dont close my eyes when I go to sleep
Oooh ooh
It gets right under your skin
It makes you as miserable as sin but
You dont have to take it so you just give in
Chorus
Why dont you come round anymore
Mama said
Hes using you
Sister said
I told you so too
When he goes through your head
You took him to be true

It Only Makes Me Laugh
I dont know why I feel this way
I dont know if its right or wrong to laugh at misfortune
Darkness can never last too long
Every time I think Im falling
And theres nobody around to hold me up
And it seems like the world has come to an end
I look for miles but not a face is friendly
Then suddenly a hole opens up in the ground
The bottom of the hole is a raging fire
I try to jump over but theres no way
The next thing I know, Im going down
(chorus)
Does it hurt?
Oh, it really doesnt matter
Does it burn?
Oh, I dont feel a thing
Does it sting?
Oh, yeah, it really doesnt matter
Does it hurt?
Oh, I dont give a damn
When I find myself falling and I hit the bottom
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
When I go down the hole and I hit the bottom
The last time that I fell in love
The love was milk and honey but the milk turned sour
The woman became a monster
And everyone I knew had become a stranger
And the room went black and my luck was spent
The floor opened up, down I went
(repeat chorus)
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
Coming right back
Coming right back
cause you cant keep me down
Cant keep me down
Oh, in the ground
Does it hurt?
Oh, it really doesnt matter
Does it burn?
Oh, I dont feel a thing
I dont mind just a little pain
Ooh, oh yeah
Whoa...
Remembering when I was a young man
How everything seemed to turn against me
I didnt know a soul, it was an alien place
The sun was covered by a dark cloud
And though I tried, I couldnt find a way to escape
The only way to go was straight down
(repeat chorus)
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
It only makes me laugh
I dont know why I feel this way
I dont know if its right or wrong to laugh at misfortune
Darkness can never last too long...
When you laugh in its face
When you laugh in its face
I dont know why I feel this way...

He Got up and Go:
It was six a.m.
The clock was ringing
To let me no
That Toley was leaving
Chorus:
And I dont think im gunna make it
Because Kayla wants to beat me
And im scared from head to toe
Because he got up and go
He wont be there to save me
Cuz I didnt give him a second chance
He goes out with an eight grader
And he will go with her to the dance
I am just a punk rocker
He was skater punk to me
But now those nicknames are gone
Cuz I am just so slutty
Chorus:
Got up and go
got up and go
got up and go
He no longer loves me
Like I do to him
Before he asked Renee out
We thought he liked Kim
He told me I looked like a rat
Because Kayla wants to hit me with a bat
He doesnt want me back, my neighbor is a hoe
And than he got up and go

Something just isn't right
I can feel it inside
The truth isn't far behind me
You can't deny
When I turn the lights out
When I close my eyes
Reality overcomes me
I'm living a lie

When I'm alone I
Feel so much better
And when Im around you
I don't feel at all

Together
It doesn't feel right at all

Together we built a wall
Together
Holding hands we'll fall
Hands we'll fall
This has gone on so long
I realize that I need
Something good to rely on
Something for me

Monday Morning Church
You left your Bible on the dresser
So I put it in the drawer
'Cause I can't seem to talk to God without yelling anymore
And when I sit at your piano
I can almost hear those hymns
The keys are just collecting dust
But I can't close the lid
You left my heart as empty
as a Monday morning church
It used to be so full of faith and now it only hurts
And I can heart the devil whisper
"Things are only getting worse"
You left my heart as empty
as a Monday morning church
The preacher came by Sunday
said he missed me at the service
He told me Jesus loves me
but I'm not sure I deserve it
'Cause the faithful man that you loved
is nowhere to be found
Since they took all that he believed
and laid it in the ground
Repeat chorus
I still believe in Heaven
and I'm sure you've made it there
But as for me without your love, girl
I don't have a prayer
Repeat chorus
You left your Bible on the dresser
so I put it in the drawer

Pills for Pain. Blood for hurt
How much can a person endure
Before realising pills make the pain stop
They numb all feeling and leave you cold
Cold and dead inside
Pills for pain blood for hurt
It trickles slowly out
The harder you push the faster the hurt escapes
How can a person hurt themselves
When all they do is hurt
When you hurt emotionally physically is easier
Pills for pain blood for hurt
To be nobody to no one
To be unloved and unknown
I am know by the pills
They know me
They make me a someone
Pills for pain blood for hurt
To have a heart broken
Shattered and screaming for less hurt
To feel so much love and the next day non
Pills for pain blood for hurt
Love leads to pain
Caring leads to hurt
Pills for pain
Blood for hurt
Nobody to save me

Shakin the blues - every night
Been all alone - no surprise
Dont you forget me - Im so blind
Im coming back - one more time - tonight

If these streets were empty
With nothing to see

An all of these memories - still the same
Im going home - and Ill remain - unchanged

Death Defied
He only thought he was going for the thrill of a ride
Wasnt in the play to be gone for long
But he keeps looking back over his shoulder
He knows that something might go wrong
The ride it aint smooth that is for sure
Strange mood what is the cure
Hes got that feeling of impending doom
Like being trapped in a casket inside a tomb
Chorus:
Death defied by will
Like a drug that doesnt kill
Boy you gotta learn whats true
Death defied by will
Like a drug that doesnt kill
The joke is on you
You ought to know better
You ought to know better
He is determined to outsmart this snake
With conviction he will stand his ground
Feeling invincible like death itself
But his immortality wont be found
What should he say at his own wake
That he refuses to fulfill his fate
He doesnt know that this is his last drive
On the road we call alive
Chorus
Now the time has come
You cant play around
And you ought to know
You ought to know better
You ought to know better
