Distractions

all these other people around distract me
they make me take my eyes off of you
but we've agreed that this is how it would be
so I won't let it make me blue
but let's sneak away just into the kitchen
you can fill your glass
and I can get a little of what I'm missin'
and if things go right
you'll be stayin' here tonight
and that's what I like
all these voices in my head they distract me
and I can't concentrate on you
but we've agreed it's okay to be crazy
it's something that we're always gonna do
let's step outside
can we share that cigarette
I know that it's cold
but at least you don't think I am yet
and if things go right
you'll be stayin' here tonight
and you know that's what I like...

Today(Tonight)
04:38

I wonder if you wanna come inside
I feel like I could make you smile
and if I can't, at least I tried
around here that's enough to win some prize
take off your shoes, take off your hat
take off your spectacles at that
maybe you wanna climb into my bed
maybe you wanna crawl into my head
I'm not askin' you to Love me
I'm just askin' you to stay
I'm not askin' for forever
I'm just askin' for today
I'm not askin' you to Love me... but I wouldn't mind
I wonder if you wanna stay all night
at least until the sky turns bright
tomorrow we can say goodbye
and you can tell me that tonight was all a lie
(Chorus)

Gossip Ball

did you hear the one about all the boys she kissed?
did you hear the one about all the drugs he did?
did you see the way that she turned and walked away?
did you see the look on his face when they just walked into this place?
I'm hearing things I shouldn't hear, I'm seeing things that I shouldn't see
can't you do a better job of keeping things from me?
I just don't care to hear that tale, I've always known that people fail
now every time that someone falls we all just pass around that ball
can you believe all the things she heard him say?
it sounds to me like he might have to go away
but you never know, who's to say that he's not lying?
shhh don't let her see you look, nut doesn't it seem like she's been crying
(Chorus)

Understand

I woke up just to feel like shit
lately I've been used to this
I'm the one who's really scared
scared that no one really cares
I gotta fix myself again
I just wish I knew where to begin
I blame myself, I don't blame you
there's really nothing that you could do
I guess I tricked myself again
I guess I thought that I could understand
I guess I tricked myself again
I guess I thought I could understand... you
I woke up just to feel like this?
yeah, I'll take a shot, but I'm sure I'll miss
nothing good ever happens here
well maybe when you first appeared
but now I think you're gone
aw come on...
I shouldn't expect you to play along
(Chorus)

The Words To Say
03:58
|

|
are you gonna call me if it gets slow?
cuz I'm not sure exactly where we stand
are you gonna pick me up in those clothes?
are you gonna reach over and touch my hand?
are we gonna drive out to your dad's house?
are you gonna take me back to your place?
are we gonna get fast food for dinner?
will you be wearing the sad or the happy face?
or am I not gonna hear from you today?
am I gonna wait and wait and wait?
I guess there's nothing else to do
so I'll stay here and wait for you
someday you're gonna find the words to say
someday
we never went to see that dollar movie
you know I've got enough money for that
I'll buy a bag of buttery movie popcorn
but baby, sneak the coca cola in in your bag
we'll probably just stay in on your couch
maybe have a little smoke when it gets late
it's been a couple days now since we've made Love
and I will tell you that's my favorite thing to make
(Chorus)
