GIRLFRIEHD

Room 421

In an airport hotel

I know I should be sleeping

But it's too soon to tell

If I'll fly out tomorrow

If I'll see her tomorrow

I hope that I will

There's no place like alone

There's no sound like my own voice fading into

This quiet summer night

But I'm doing alright

I'll make a phone call or two

Miles from my own bed

Further from content

I guess I should get used to this

Still fain on the runway

But I'm doing okay

I've got cigarettes to kiss

Could I get some conversation please

I'm down on my knees

I'm only here for tonight

The story of my life

'Cause I'm hitting the wall

And I thought I would call you

To ask for an hour

If I'll fly out tomorrow

If I'll see her tomorrow. I hope that I will

TEMPORARY LIFE I drove a hundred miles just to see you

But you're still a hundred miles away

I fought the fire of your wandering eye

I thought it might just keep you here another day

7 weeks since New York City

Feels like 7 weeks far too long

I want to give time back to you

'Cause the feeling is so far from gone

You couldn't pacify

The feelings that made you wanna run away

Could I get some conversation please Just send someone to see

About a few things I need

Do you think you could bring me my girlfriend

And a bottle of wine

Bring me her future

Just make sure it's mine

Will you open the window

But leave out the cold

Could you make a phone call to Jesus

To clean up my soul

It's 4 in the morning

Couldn't drink myself to sleep

I'm still trying to find the reasons

That are keeping you from me

As I'm staring out the window

And I can't burn you from my mind

'Cause I'm hitting the wall

I can't take this anymore. I won't do this anymore

Room 421 A Cleveland hotel

I know I should be sleeping

But it's too soon to tell

Bar time is 10:30

Our time is temporary

'Cause your eye is wandering

Our love has a temporary life

It's still been 49 days since I've seen you

You think you're the one that's been mislead

Still want to give time back to you

But I can never be that man again

I drove a hundred miles just to see you

But you're still a hundred miles away

I fought the fire of your wandering eye

I thought it might just keep you here another day

■Ml

Somewhere that we can meet FORTUthATE Staring down the walls with your empty hands

Never forced you to feel anything

Stealing back the time

And all the innocence of everything

Has finally made you see

It's finally made you believe

You're always bringing me down

You're bringing me down

Ending all the pain of never being here

Has finally forced you to feel for a change

Giving back the walls with your empty hands

Has finally made you see

You'll never want to leave

Now you figure it out they say

It just takes a little time

But I don't know if I can go on

It's too far this time

Now I don't want to be the one to hurt you

We seem fortunate for pain

And stale goodnights

I've been sitting here thinking for days

So fortunate for change

Wrapped around the nights

With all your emptiness

You'll see the face you believe in anyway

Giving back the time

And all the innocence of everything

Has finally made you see

It's finally made you believe

That we're fortunate for pain

With the stale goodnights

I've been sitting here thinking for days

We're fortunate for pain

Stale goodnights

Fortunate for change

SOUJROHG You and me standing on the edge

Of a waterfall

And through the clouds I can see the sun

Shining through it all

Lying somewhere forgotten in time

So forgive me for what I said

I don't want to push you too hard

BLEED OH It's easy for you

As it's never been for anyone

To tell me what to do

Like a stone we are so cold

And where we go from here baby

I don't know

You forced it on me

Sad excuses of the man I am

Now tell me who to be

'Cause I was so wrong for so long

Now it's time I picked up

And time I moved on

To bigger and better things for me

And it feels so right to stand up and fight

For what you believe in go on it's all right

Don't be afraid

I don't recall

Which excuses seemed so real

Then she tells me

Bleed on the line (it's in her words)

Bleed if it's easy

You'll feel everything

You and me standing face to face in the street

Trying to find some common ground

With the chains that hold you in my head

Hold you down to bleed

I forced it on you

Tell me how it feels to beg for me I’ll tell you what to do

I don't recall

Which excuses seem so real

Then she tells me

Bleed on the line (it's in her words)

Bleed if it's easy you'll feel

Bleed on the line (it's in the words)

Again

Then she begs me to scream

Of my home coming queen

I guess you win this time

It's ridiculous

For you to be sitting there

Laughing as I crash and I burn

Can you spare a minute for

Can you spare a minute for when I die

I'm burned out on pickup lines

That I learned in Philosophy classes

Then the starting fullback

Fell on my black rimmed glasses

Seeing that I don't have a comeback to use

God only knows she's the craziest girl I know

She pops these pills to make her feel good again

It's February now

And her hands are digging in the dirt again

She's waiting for flowers to grow

In the garden I know is covered with snow

And when she leaves now where does she go

God only knows she's the craziest girl I know

HOW LOnG How long can you feed on the fire

That you never get to feel

How long has it seemed to be

But I never do

Is it good enough for you

Nothing is good enough for you

I've never been so easy

It's easy for you

SPARE mmUTE Bogus reasons for leaving me hangin' by a thread

Ya turn me down it turns me on

It really messed with my head

Recurring dreams

'Bout the real popular people in school

I'm biting dust in the presence

Think I'd better, better make a fool of you now

She’s in charge of me

She's swallowing the life inside

It just takes 60 seconds to make me come around

CRAZIEST GIRL I HAOW She talks to God when my back is turned

I can't live with this I guess I'm gonna have to learn

She smiles at me when it’s going wrong

It's February now and it won't be long

She's waiting for flowers to grow

And when she leaves now where does she go

Since you felt anything quite this real

She said that she needs some more space

Just to figure out who we are

She told him to just hang on

How long is too long

Close your eyes, touch your lips now

Here comes her best excuses

Close your eyes she always comes around

How long can you pressure for more

While the pleasure's too much not to breathe

And she said you're my favorite baby

Excuse me while I try to breathe

She told him honesty is what made us

More than just good friends

How long will it be too long

Before the honesty finally ends again

Close your eyes, touch your lips now

Here comes her best excuses

Close your eyes she always comes around

How long

Keeps dragging him down again

Close your eyes, touch your lips now

Here comes her best excuses

Feel a ribbon of grey laced through her dark hair

For the first time

I couldn't be for this

Just to see it end

I won't try to pretend that I can make it

Please waste some time

Even though she never said it

You were too afraid to ask

How will you ever forgive me

I've come undone

I've come undone

Wait awhile, try to make it end

I won't mind to pretend

On lonely tales and nursery rhymes

Waste your time on clouded words

And borrowed time but I have..J have to

The bottom just burned from the downslide

It's always been a part of your game

Still standing around feeling

Proud with your Daddy's name

But can you feel

My heart gets darker with the sun

So eager to please your past

That you're wilting to forget the one

Who won't waste your time

On lonely tales and nursery rhymes

Close your eyes and we're all listening

Here comes her best excuses

Close your eyes she always comes around

How long

corns unoons Inching closer to finally realize

Your will to live became a will to die

So quick to questioning everything, it feels so cold

I'm finally in unfamiliar surroundings

Please waste some time

She looks down on me. she holds my hand

That I can make it

Please waste some time.J've come undone

SLOW HH The colors bleed in from the downslide

It's always been a part of the game

You're still standing around in squares

Wondering who's to blame

For all the years gone by much quicker

When you're young

We'll still smell the flowers bloom

Long after you're gone

You won't waste your time

Waste your time on borrowed words

And clouded minds but I have.J have to

Bitterness will get the best of you

Emptiness will get the best of you

Loneliness is always there for you

Happiness will be the death of you
