Please Say You'll Stay

Because i don't wanna hear that you don't want to be with me
Please say you'll stay tonight
Because i don't want to be alone tonight

Because i don't like to be alone
It's something that i've known for some time
Don't feel like you're here to fill a void
This time it's more than that to me

Because i don't wanna hear that you don't want to be with me
Please say you'll stay tonight
I want you to know that i

Don't want to be alone
I've spent enough time on my own
Now it's my turn to be with you
Please say you'll see this night through

I don't wanna be alone tonight

Back Up Top

Last nite i think i figured friendship out
Passed out drunk on Kati's couch...again
It's someone like Kati whose soul is true
God hit a masterpiece when hwe created you

(chorus)
Life is better when i'm around you
Don't have to worry about what i have to prove
Life is better when i'm around you
Don't have to worry about what i always lose

It must be hard for some to understand
Sometimes life has a different plan...for us
Just give this life everything you've got
Don't treat setbacks like you lost

(chorus)

Zammit you know you're my best friend
Here's a little somethin' that i have to say
A world without you hanging around
Is a world in which i would rather not stay

Back Up Top

I've got a crush on you again
But i doubt i'll ever get past your jealous new boyfriend
So i'm left to only think of you
Wishing someday i'll pull this through because

I would like to be with you and i would be true

I've got a crush on you again
And you say we'll be together but you never tell me when
You said, "right now there's just no way"
Seems like i'm the one always waiting for a new day

I would like to be with you and i would be true

So stop telling me those lines
Saying what i wanna hear doesn't make it fine
I've got a crush on you again
You say well be together but you never tell me when

Back Up Top

It's ben too long since i've thought about anyone other than me
And now i'd like to say, i'm sorry for any pain i've caused
If i made you feel like i didn't care,
Because i hope you know that i did.

It's been four years that i've been on my own.
Living all alone in a town so far away.
It's not an excuse.
And every time that i would call home, get you on the phone
I'd talk your ear off about my life.

I'm sorry

Please accept this apology.
For treating you like you didn't matter much,
Becuase the truth is i really care

How you're doing in your daily life.
I appreciate that you have problems and worries just like me.
Don't hesitate to call me out when i'm acting like a jerk,
And bring me right back down to this earth.

Back Up Top

Do you remember when you sold out?
Do you remember when you gave up?

(What's wrong with you?)
It's not a fashion show
It's only punk rock
It's not about how much Hurley clothes you wear
It's not a fashion
It's only punk rock
It's not about proving you're tough with nothing to fear

Back Up Top

Hey now don't you worry about your life.
All the guys are here, so throw away your fears.
It's just another pothole in the road.
You can drive around, so throw away the frown.

Whatever your decision is, we'll stand beside you.
Through the thick and the thin, we're right behind you.
And when you try, try again, we'll never leave you.
Through the end of time, and that's not just a line.

If you mess this up, you won't be out of luck.
We're your friends and we won't back down.
No matter how hot the heat, it's something that we'll beat.

Back Up Top

What Are You On?

what ever happened to the way things used to be?
what ever happened to you making me feel so free?
the clouds have come the sun has gone
and i'm left wondering just what you're on.

i know we never set anything in stone.
but couldn't you tell
by the way we talked on the phone
that i didn't want to go through all of this alone.

what ever happened to the way things used to be?
what ever happened to you making me feel so free?
the clouds have come the sun has gone
and i'm left wondering just what you're on.

you left me to go over every second
millions of seconds that vanished when you mentioned him.

just tell me you're happy
and that you've made the right choice.
i'll leave you alone
and you won't have to hear my nagging voice.

Back Up Top

let's go, let's get the crew.
come on, we got a lot to do.
here we go, gonna have some fun.
gonna skate, skate all night long.

michael's doing heelflips, bustin' 'em left and right.
james just ollied five stairs, that kid is out of sight.
dave is tryin something new, can't keep up with him.
i just trying to have some fun skating with my friends.

i want to skate to live.
i've got to skate to live.

i know we probably won't go pro, but that doesn't bother us.
i don't want to join the zero team if i have to kickflip off a bus.

i want to skate to live.
i've got to skate to live.

skate to live! (4x)

Your Best Friend

i don't know what to do, don't know what to say.
i don't know how i can take you away.
i don't know what to do, don't know what to be.
i don't know how it became more important than me.

do you care about yourself?
you only seem to care about going the wrong way.
don't know what to do, don't know what to be.
don't know how it became more important than me.

your best friend until the end.
but when will that be?
out of respect i'll take you away from here.

don't know what to do, don't know what to be.
don't know how it became more important than me.
do you care about yourself?
you always making the wrong decisions

your best friend until the end.
but when will that be?
out of respect i'll take you away from here.

Back Up Top

don't you dare try to make fun of her.
because i'll be there waiting in the corner.
i know she's the only girl that wants to hang around me
and she's the one, the only one i want to marry.

don't mess with her cause i'll kick your ass.
i know that she skates she skates hella fast
and i know that i'll always be right by her side
because she's the only girl that i want.

Back Up Top

Sun comes up, it's another day.
Will we sulk or roll in the hay?
My vote goes for #2, but in the end it depends on you.

And I wanna know, what's goin' on inside your head.
And I wanna know, do you want me in your arms or dead.
'Cause you mean the galaxy to me.

Last night my thoughts nearly broke my heart,
just thinkin' about us being apart.
Now this morning, you're not here,
a realization of my worst fear.

Back Up Top

What could I've done differently?
What could I've said, tell me please.
How could I've stopped this, I don't know.
You're so beautiful, I should've told you so.

It hurts me so much to hear what you're going through.
If I could do anything I'd be there for you.
I'll make you're bed, I'll wash your clothers.
I'll do your homework, I'll even blow your nose.

Just tell me now that you'll eat some food.
Promise me that you won't fall back into that mood.

God loves you more than you can know.
So don't ever think that you're alone.
He'll be right by you're side throughout it all
So don't hesitate to answer His call.

Just tell me now that you'll eat some food.
Promise me that you won't fall back into that mood.

I won't say I know what you're going through.
The truth is I don't, but I'll be there for you.
If you wanted my attention, you've got it now.
Christine I love you and I'll sing it out loud.
You're not alone.

Back Up Top

Sometimes, I know you're the girl of my dreams.
You're my hopes, you're my everything Stephanie.
Late at night I sit alone in my room.
It's the only thing I want to do if I can't be with you.

4x
I know I can't always be with you.

Sometimes I know that it's gonna be hard.
A thousand miles away is just too far.
And all I have is this letter to send.
Dear Stephanie, I can't wait to hold you again.

6x
I know I can't always be with you.

Sometimes, I know you're the girl of my dreams.
You're my hopes, you're my everything Stephanie.
And all I have is this letter to send.
Dear Stephanie, I can't wait to hold you again.

Back Up Top

I just cannot Xplain why I don't like this game
that you force me to play just about every day.
I don't like white collared shirts cause they make my neck hurt
and now I won't get this job cause I'm not a nimrod.

Has the time come for the end of all my fun?
Has the time come for me
to change and conform to something you adore?
I don't want to be your little bonsai tree.

They focus on the superficial, everything's conditional.
I don't agree, this life's not for me.
I like to think for myself and so should everyone else.
I won't let them put me down, I'm nobody's clown.

2x
Has the time come for the end of all my fun?
Has the time come for me
to change and conform to something you adore?
I don't want to be your little bonsai tree.

Back Up Top

What should I say, when you leave me standing all alone
the look you gave, made me feel like such a lazy bum
I remember us together, hand-in-hand this is what I always wanted to be
but it wasn't forever, and now I think of what you do without me

You said you loved me
You said you cared
But when I'm sad and lonely
Are you always gonna be there

These days are getting tougher, and I don't know what to do
my heart's healing slowly, am I ever gonna be over you
Angel from above, I hope that you're okay
you're better off now, I know I'll see you again someday

You said you loved me
You said you cared
But when I'm sad and lonely
Are you always gonna be there

What should I say, when you leave me standing all alone
the look you gave, made me feel like such a lazy bum
I remember us together, hand-in-hand this is what I always wanted to be
but it wasn't forever, and now I think of what you do without me

You said you loved me
You said you cared
But when I'm sad and lonely
Are you always gonna be there.

Back Up Top

I'm Just Trying

You only see what you want to
I don't know what to do
Sure I've messed up a couple times before
Why can't you just see through

Tell me I'm doing something right
That's all I want to hear
Work hard for nothing and
You can still find faults in me

2x
I'm just trying real hard to succeed
In your eyes

Why don't you leave the judging to the One above
And try to appreciate me
For what I'm doing now

2x
I'm just trying real hard to succeed
In your eyes

Everything I do now is being forgotten
And all the things I try to forget
You bring right back

Back Up Top

You sit around denying it all
you sit around while you watch them fall
O yeah, it just doesn't make any sense to me
Is there something you can't see
He's the light that made it clear for me

I understand how easy it seems to look away
And not pay attention to a single word He says
But you're missing the point, the joy that comes from knowing Christ
So I'll stick around standing on the rock that is my ground

Open your eyes and see the glory of God today

Back Up Top

Oh no, what have you been drinking?
Oh my, what have you been thinking?
I thought it was obvious, you're the only one.
I can only be what you see, what you perceive,
please believe me when I say that I wish things weren't this way.

2x
I think about you everyday.
Just don't know what to say,
but I know that I want to be with you tonight.

I don't know what you've been smoking.
I can only hope you're joking,
and that you're ignoring me just to be a tease.
Every time the phone rings, I pick up while listening
for your voice to tell me that it's you who's on the line.

2x
I think about you everyday.
Just don't know what to say,
but I know that I want to be with you tonight.

Back Up Top

Everything's changed, nothing's stayed the same.
I thought when I came back we'd still play that game
Now it's gone and I don't remember where it went
I don't remember how my time was spent

Don't forget the games we played
Cause the times we had weren't that bad
I wonder how it'd be if I'd stayed

So much time has gone by without me being aware
If I could do anything I would end up back there
Playing games and having fun but it went by so fast

Why can't I remember where we were (where's the memory)
All the time went by with such a blur (baby tell me please)
Tell you now no matter what we got though (you're the girl for me)
You can always ask and always do (cause you're my jellybean)

Back Up Top

I can't believe the things you say to me when we're all alone
You must think that I'm always waiting, praying by the phone
And when you tell me I'm the only one, it's just you and me
You must think that I'm blind, but I can see

All the heartache that you're causin' me
I guess this is the only relationship you see

And when you think about all the times we spent
I doubt you ever realized how much they really meant
Cause what's the world to me? To you it's just another day
And I'll probably live my life without ever hearing you say

You're so special, I don't want this to end
Even though it's fake, at least I can pretend

And what about your new boyfriend?
Will he ever let you see me again?
Cause I'm here thinking about you
And all the wonderful things we'd do

The things you say when we're alone,
I call your house but you're not home
I leave a message on your phone,
And you still leave me on my own
Why does it always seem to be,
that when we're done you don't need me
You go straight back to where you were,
everything that happened was just a blur

I don't know what I'm doing
I'm always losing

I started to get over you, everything was looking bright and new
The you came back into my life, asking if you could be my wife

She could've been the girl for me
But now I'll never see
Why couldn't you just let me go?
Cause now I'll never know

Back Up Top

Susan says she needs sometime
To figure out what's on her mind
Needs someone to listen and care
Cause sometimes life just isn't fair

Susan you know I'll be around
To pick you up when you're feelin' down
You're stuck with me 'til the bitter end
I would never leave such a special friend

But I don't know just what you do
When you not hangin' out with me
Why can't I always be with you
I don't blame you for having
So many other friends
Just as long as I can be one too

Susan says she needs some space
Fly off to some other place
Leave all of those troubles behind
Worry about confusion some other time

Sometimes life is just a game
And eveything won't stay the same
You must choose your own difrection
Don't worry about the stoopid reflection
