Crash and Burn

~ Lifehouse ~

All these nights are catching up to me
I just can't put insomnia to sleep
I close my eyes but all that I can see
Is someone who I'm never gonna be

Could you remind me to forget
The things I did the things I said
I hoe that you can bring me back
I gotta make it right

And if I fall and crash and burn
At least we both know that I tried
As I crawl that lessons learned
It reminds me I'll survive

Silence just keep screaming back at me
The one I love are lost in memories
And I wish that I could take back what was done
YOu can only change the person you've become

I've been broken I've been low
I've been hurt but I'll move on
I have to try and find a way
To leave it all behind

And if I fall and crash and burn
At least we both know that I tried
As I crawl that lessons learned
It reminds me I'll survive

I've been hrut and I've been scarred
At least I know that I'm alive
And if I fall and crash and burn
At least we both know that I tried

All of the things that I tried say
All of the words just got in the way
I'm waiting here, I need your help
Don't leave me done here, all by myself

Could you remind me to forget
That things I did the things I said
I hope that you can bring me back
I gotta make it right

And if I fall and crush and burn
At least we both know that I tried
As I crawl that lessons learned
It reminds me I'll survive

I've been hurt and I've been scarred
At least I know that I'm alive
And if I fall and ctrash and burn
At least we both know that I tried

Somewhere in the Middle

~ Dishwalla ~

I was out the other day
And saw you in your big black care
And I was waving as you were passing
Cause I know who you are
You had a look that of an angel
It was such a bad disguise
Did you think for a second I would not realize

Tripping hard falling down onto the ground
Cause I can't stand up
And I can't fall down
Cause I'm somewhere in the middle of this

I was out the other night
And I saw you so we had a fight
It was late and I was lonely
It's such a long way home
So I asked you if you'd join me
For a single last call drink
So you turned and brought us 2
And you didn't even blink
You had this look that of an angel
It was such a bad disguise
When you drink it makes you angry
When I drink I want you more and more and more

Tripping hard falling down onto the ground
Cause I can't stand up
And I can't fall down
Cause I'm somwhere in the middle of this

Tripping hard falling down onto the ground
Cause I can't stand up
And I can't fall down
And I'm somewhere in the middle of this

Well I find it hard
I always tried to fine the sane life
But I don't like the way things are
And I keep falling to my knees
Somewhere in the middle of this

Cause I'm somewhere in the middle of this

Tripping hard falling down onto the ground
Cause I can't stand up
And I can't fall down
Cause I'm somewhere in the middle of this

Somewhere in the middle, hmm

Home

~ Dishwalla ~

I'm so sick and tired of all these things
That drag me down, I've got no where to go
They say that life is in these hands
You give everything, you give yourself away
You give and still you choke
And find yourself running for the door

Come and take me home
Lead me to your door
Take me where you are
Lead me to your door
At least just for a while

It's some kind of life forever days
We're in the cold unfamiliar way
So take this fear and fade it out
It won't make me sad
Cause I get sentimental lord in other ways
and I don't want to let me down here anymore

So come and take me home
Lead me to your door
Take me where you are
Lead me to your door
And let me in
Just let me in
And let me leave
Just let me leave this world
At least just for a while

Counting Blue Cars

~ Dishwalla ~

Must've been mid-afternoon
As I could tell by how far the child's shadow streched out
And he walked with a purpose in his sneakers, down the street
He had many questions like children often do

He said "Tell me all your thoughts on God?"
"And tell me am I very far?"

Must've been late afternoon
On our way the sun broke free of the clouds
We count only blue cars skip the cracks, in the street
And ask many questions like children often do

We said, "Tell me all your thoughts on God?
'Cause I'd really like to meet her
And ask her why we're who we are?
Tell me all you thoughts on God?
'Cause I'm on my way to see her
So tell me am I very far, am I very far now?"

It's getting cold picked up the pace
How our shoes make hard noises in this place
Our clothes are stained
We passs many cross-eyed people and asked
Many questions like children often do

Tell me all your thoughts on God?
'Cause I'd really like to meet her
And ask her why we're who we are?
And tell me all your thoughts on God?
'Cause I'm on my way to see her
So tell me am I very far
Am I very far now, am I very far now, am I very far now?
Tell me all your thoughts on God?

Breakeven

~ The Script ~

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just praying to a God that I don't believe in
Cause I got time while she got freedom
Cause when the hear breaks no it don't break even

Her best days will be some of my worst
She finally met a man that's gonna put her first
While I'm wide awake she no trouble sleeping
And when the heart breaks no it don't break even, even, no

What am I suppose to do when the best part of me was always you?
And what am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're OK?
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces

They say bad things happens for a reason
But no wise words are gonna stop the bleeding
Cause she's moved on while I'm still grieving
And when the heart breaks no it don't break even, even, no

What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you?
And what am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're OK?
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces

I'm falling to pieces
(One's still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
(Cause when the heart breaks, no, it don't break even)

You got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame
Now I'm tryin' make sense of what little remains, oh
Cause you left me with no love and no love to my name

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in
Cause I got time while she got freedom
Cause when a heart breaks, no, it don't break even, no

What am I suppose to do when the best part of me was always you?
What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're okay?
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces

I'm falling to pieces
(One's still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
(Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't break even)

Oh, it don't break even, no
Oh, it don't break even, no
Oh, it don't break even, no

No More Rhyme

~ Debbie Gibson ~

When the fear sets in, where the fire burns
Where I find a place, where there's nowhere to turn
When the evening sings an eerie song
Longing for the day, you say I'm wrong

You can find your place but never fit in
And only when you've left, do you know where you've been
I can see the light, but only when it's gone
You can go on waiting but only for so long (so long, so long)

I know we are right, it's not always clear
Because I've never felt the tear
Can it stay so good, forever in time?
I've always felt the rhythm
What happens when there's no more rhyme?

Can we face ourselves, like we face each other?
We've never felt anything on our own
I can't wait much longer to feel any danger
I hope we're not living for a lifetime alone

I know we are right, it's not always clear
Because I've never felt the tear
Can it stay so good, forever in time?
I've always felt the rhythm
What happens when there's no more rhyme?

Hard to go on
It's like waiting for the other shoe to drop
I'll never stop believing in you
It's just we never have to struggle
It all came too easy
I hope we felt what we felt from the start
We've never suffered a broken heart
We've been so blinded by all the best
We've never put our love to the test (to the test)

I've always felt the rhythm
What happens when there's no more rhyme?

In My Life

~ Bette Midler~

There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone, and some remain

All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, I love them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new

Though I know I'll never ever lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
But in my life, I love you more

Though I know I'll never ever lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think of them
But in my life, I love you more
I love you more
I love you more

Dream

~ Priscilla Ahn ~

I was a little girl
Alone in my little world
Who dreamed of a little home for me
I played pretend between the trees,
And fed my houseguests bark and leaves,
And laughed in my pretty bed of green

I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest swing
I had a dream

Long walks in the dark
Through woods grown behind the park
I asked God who I'm supposed to be
The stars smiled down on me
God answered in silent reverie
I said a prayer and fell asleep

I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest wing
I had a dream

Now I'm old and feeling grey
I don't know what's left to say
About this life I'm willing to leave
I lived it full and I lived it well,
There's many tales I've lived to tell
I'm ready now, I'm ready now to fly from the highest wing

I had a dream

Iris

~ Goo Goo Dolls ~

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
