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?
