Never Shout Never

First topic message reminder :

"Myfriendjane"

You see this girl
She's got a problem telling time
If you knew her
You'd ask me so many questions
She's confused about her image
Although we all agree she's so beautiful

If you knew her
You'd ask me so many questions
I've never felt so good
Writing a song about you
I've never felt so good
To tell you we miss you so

Every song that I've wrote about you
And how we need you back
Yeah, it's kinda like that

I promise that you've never looked so good
Without that face on
I know, you know, you knew, you never could
I beg to differ if I had one

I promise that you've never looked so good
Without that face on
I know, you know, you knew, you never could
I beg to differ if I had one

I promise that you've never looked so good
Without that face on
I know, you know, you knew, you never could
I beg to differ if I had one

"What Is Love?"

In a snitch like this
You gotta think and I don't think you
Think about the way he thinks
And I know you live life
For yourself
But it all comes down to
The way you help

And I know your life is such a hell
You wake up early and you work until
You have your drinks at 5 o'clock
The hours blend and your thoughts
All haunt your hopes, your dreams
Your everything
Well, mama, I hope
I dream that you won't leave

And I have a question:
What is love?
What is love?
Oh, oh oh oh-oh-oh
Is it giving up?
'Cause that's not how you
Raised me, yeah.

In a snitch like this you gotta think
And I don't think you think
About the way she thinks
And I know you work hard everyday
But it all comes down
To the way you're paid

And I know you're oh so sorry dad
I truly believe that you're a better man
Than to share one kiss and then give away
From the love you come home everyday
Your hopes, your dreams, your everything
Well daddy, I hope, I dream
That she won't leave

And I have a question:
What is love?
What is love?
Oh, oh oh oh-oh-oh
Is it giving up?
'Cause that's not how you
Raised me

And what is love?
What is love?
Oh, oh oh oh-oh-oh
See, I don't know anymore
I used to look
Up to
That love

"The Past"

And I sing songs about the past.
How I was raised and I was thrown out on my ass,
Cause I didn't care.
About going to school.

And I saw the look in her eyes.
My mother nearly cried when I had told her that I had wanted to go,
Just to prove them wrong.

I've been smoking cigarettes since I was only fourteen,
Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me.

And I sing songs about my friends.
The way we grew up, and all the lose ends we used to laugh,
Cause we didn't give a damn.

And I saw the look in my brother's eyes,
When I told him I was leaving he couldn't help but despise me.
He's wanted out his whole life.

I've been smoking the green since I was merely sixteen,
Just to find an escape from this town that was so mean to me.

And I sing songs about the past.

I plead for relief,
This town won't receive
All the things that I want.
The things that I need.

And I'll beg and I'll beg.
I'm down on my knees.
Mama, oh mama,
Let me please leave

I plead for relief.
This town won't receive,
All the things that I want.
The things that I need.

All I ever wanted was love.

"Fifteen"

Just the other day
She was a little girl
Taking over the world,
With her smile,
But just the other day
I saw that girl
Sticking her tounge down her throat,
By a boy, who didnt give a damn

That she was only fifteen, that she was more then willing
To take a chance,
To find romance,
To grow up fast,
But i, know she is so much better,
Then to give it all away to the first guy,
First try,
First lie,
First goodbye.

Just the other day
She was a little girl
Taking over the world,
With her laugh.
But just the other day I saw that little girl
Taking her time with him,
And I cant say I've ever been so proud.

Cuz she is only fifteen,
That she was more then willing
To take a chance,
To find romance,
To grow up fast,
But i, know she is so much better,
Then to give it all away to the first guy,
First try,
First lie,
First goodbye

"I Love You 5"

I love you one, a two, a three shoobeedoo.
I love you four, that's more then I can afford
and I can tell someday that I'm gonna say the truth.
I love you 5

I've been walkin' around tryin' to figure out
why I've been feelin' all these feelings that I'm feeling now
and I've got more on my mind then I have on my plate.

I love you one, a two, a three shoobeedoo.
I love you four, thats more then I can afford
and I can tell someday that I'm gonna say the truth.

I love five times more then any boy from before,
because all they cared about was whether you put out.
And I truely believe, (truely believe)
that this love could be (that this love...)
and I can count five times off the top off my head where I sucked it in
cause you were hangin with him and I got something to say, I love you all the same

I love you one, a two, a three shoobeedoo.
I love you four, thats more then I can afford
and I can tell someday I'm gonna say the truth.
(yeaaah)

I love you one, a two, a three shoobeedoo.
I love you four, thats more then I can afford
and I can tell someday I'm gonna say the truth.
I love you 5 (ba ba bada) I love you 5 (ba ba bada) I love you 5

"Damn Dog"

I can't believe that I could believe that.
I can't believe you left me for dead man.

Cause I called you my friend.
My best friend at that.
I know that I'm loud man
But give me another chance.
I promise to keep this damn snout shut for you.
But only for you...
... Cause I love you

I should've seen the boredom in your eyes.
You dropped me off and you said your goodbyes.

Cause dad I called you my friend.
My best friend at that.
I know that I'm loud man
But give me another chance.
I promise to keep this damn snout shut for you.
But only for you...
... Cause loved you

I saw man on the side of the road.
He said take my hand, that man threw me a bone.

Cause one man's trash is another man's treasure.
The way that he made me feel was better then ever.
He told me he loved me.
He meant it forever.

I love him cause he loves me.
And all I've ever wanted was to feel love.

"30days"

30 days till christmas and all I know
Is I'm not quite ready to let go of this past year
I have so much to show
One more month and all I need
Is a sign from you, that you think of me
If you don't, then please just say so
Cause all I do, is think of you

And it's wearing me out, it's wearing me down
This holiday, is nothing but frowns for me
But I've got a gift, you see
I'm making a list, hell, I'll check it twice
Of all the things you've done in my life
Then I'll send it your way
So you see why I love you

Who would've thought that someone like me
Could've fallen in love so easily
I know that you know that I know what I want
I know I can't have it but give it a thought
I know that it sounds crazy, baby
But all I do is think of you

It's wearing me out, it's wearing me down
This holiday, is nothing but frowns for me
But I've got a gift, you see
I'm making a list, hell, I'll check it twice
Of all the things you've done in my life
Then I'll send it your way
So you see why I love...

Everything you throw my way
I know it's hard to say, but it's a crying shame
That I came all this way, with so much to say
But all that came out was happy holiday
A home cooked meal and a nice warm bed
Somebody to love a place to lay my head
But I got 30 days and ima make them count
Cause I can't call it christmas without someone to smile about

Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me
Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me
Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know...

Why can't I feel anything
from anyone other than you?
Why can't I feel anything
from anyone other than you?

And all of this was all your fault
And all of this

(I stay jealous)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life
(she'll destroy us all before she's through
and find a way to blame somebody else)

"Growing Pains"

Oh look at her walking around
Like shes in love
Oh look at me
Pacing in circles
Waiting on a phone call

And every song that I wrote
And every story that I told you at midnight
They all mean the world
Cuz there all that I have

And every song that I sang
You know that broken heart that you left behind
No nothings the same
When I'm around you girl

Oh look at her walking around
Like shes in love
Oh look at me
Pacing in circles
Waiting on a phone call

And every glance that I take
When your not lookin your looking so good
But when you stare me down
Dead in the eye
I got emotions I will not show

And every time you look away
I get this feeling in my gut
Like I'm not good enough for you
Oh I hope its not true

Ohhh look at her walking around
Like shes in love
Ohhh look at me
Pacing in circles
Waiting on a phone call
Oh look at her walking around
Like shes in love
Oh look at me
Pacing in circles
Waiting on a phone call

"I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know"

Oh I know that I am here
And you are there but we still have our love
We move just like the moon and sun
The sun comes up the moon rolls down
A world apart but they don't make a sound
They know their love spins us round

I've been to heaven I've been to hell
I've been to Vegas and god knows where
But nothing feels like home like you babe
I love you more than you will ever know

Oh I've got my car and my guitar
A couple pills a couple scars
But I made a wish on a lonesome star
Star oh star you shine so bright
Won't you grab me one small wish tonight
That I wont die on this destructive path of mine

I've been to heaven I've been to hell
I've been to Vegas and god knows where
But nothing feels like home like you babe
I love you more than you will ever know
Than you will know
Dear I love you more than you will ever know

"Coffee And Cigarettes"

Coffee and Cigarettes are my only escape.
I got my cup of Joe, my pack of stokes,
And I'm on my way downtown, to
Set up shop, and sing my cares away.
So, won't you sing with me,
'Cause it's cold outside, and I'm feeling kinda lonely.

Friday nights are always the same in this town.
I'm looking up, but I'm feeling kind of down.
So, I'll light this cigarette and smoke the night away,
And I'll hope that Saturday will be the day
When everything feels okay.

Ba da da da Ba da da da da
Ba da da da da da da da da

Coffee and Cigarettes are best when shared with you.
We'll go to Waffle House or your Mom's House,
And share a cup or two.
Yeah, I have friends, but they have friends,
And they have parties, and I'm so akward.
So whatta ya say, just as friends, we see a movie
This weekend, alright? Okay.

Friday nights are always the same in this town.
I'm looking up, but I'm feeling kind of down.
So, I'll light this cigarette and smoke the night away,
And I'll hope that Saturday will be the day

"Ladybug"

One two three four

And hey there lovely lady bug
You got another thing comin' if you think your loved
You're just another little toy in this game of lust
That boy is cheatin' on you

And hey there small town beauty queen
That sneaky little devil aint comin' clean
And I know that you have just met me
But girl you gotta believe me

That I can't believe
That the girl I saw two months ago
Is right in front of me
You took the chance to take my name
And I couldn't see just what you thought you saw in me
But obviously it's stuck

And hey there little miss diamond ring
Is he all that he's cracked up to be
I find it so hard to believe
'cause girl you just can't smile

And I know I am such a creep
Callin' 24 hours 7 days a week
But I got somethin' to say, I got somethin' to say, I got somethin' to say to you!

That I can't believe
That the girl I had one year ago
Is right in front of me
You took the chance to take my name
And I couldn't see
Just what you thought you saw in me
And obviously it's stuck

"Lovesick"

Dear, I wrote you a song
Despite the fact you did me wrong
And dear, I dunno
What the hell is going on with you
Cause somethin' ain't right

[Chorus]
You tell me that you love me
Then you go and leave me
Why you doing this to me
Baby, I'm lovesick

I just can't sleep, just can't eat
Can't do much of anything at all,
'Cause I'm sick and in love
With you

Dear, I wrote you a song
In hopes that you would sing along
And dear, I've been working my ass off for you
'Cause somethin' ain't right

[Chorus]
You tell me that you love me
Then you go and leave me
Why you doing this to me
Baby, I'm lovesick

I just can't eat, just can't sleep
Can't do much of anything at all,
'Cause I'm sick and in love
With you

la la la la la

"Sellout"

Who the hell have I been kidding
I sold my soul to the corporation
They know me better than I know myself
I better shut it up
I better shut it up

You gotta problem with the way I think
I gotta problem with the way you think
That you can program me
Like a damn machine
I wanna take a stand
And say fuck this scene

I'm sick of imagery
Instead of artistry
I'm sick of apathy
Instead of harmony
I'm sick of poets workin' part time jobs
While pissy people pick and choose the stars

I know that I should be
The last one to speak
About this but even sellouts have their dreams
Set the music free

Ba da da da da da,
da da da da da
da da da da
da da da da da da
Da da da da da
Da da da da da
Ba da da da da da

Oh what the hell was I tryin' to prove
I ran away so young
Now I'm on the move
Like a vandal I wear my mask
And all you punks back home
Yah you can kiss my ass
Cause' I gotta feelin' deep down inside my soul
That's taken three whole years to gain control
And I aint never no never no never no never no never no never
Coming home

Ba da da da da da
Da da da da da
Da da da da
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da
Da da da da da
Da da da da
Da da da da da da

Ohhh.

"Sky High Standard"

I don't know how to put this right
Except we're screaming at the stoplight now
And I cant breathe
Whoa

I got the notion through all this commotion
That I was in the wrong
Through trial and error
I found myself putting on things I hate

If I had a dime for every apology,
That was never said I'd be a rich man

Where do we go when no ones home?
Where do we run when I'm alone, alone?
Were do I hide when I'm afraid
Afraid the world is gonna change
Without me?

I stratagize playing tic-tac-toe
And dominoes
Anything to get me through the day

I stratagize playing tic-tac-toe
And dominoes
Anything to get me through the day

This is me trying to live my life
With your standards, your god-awful standards
They wear me down
Whoa

Where do we go when no ones home?
Where do we run with I'm alone, alone?
Were do I hide when I'm afraid
Afraid the world is gonna change
Without me?

Where do we go when no ones home?
Where do we run with I'm alone, alone?
Were do I hide when I'm afraid
Afraid the world is gonna change
Without me?

"This Shit Getz Old"

If you're looking for me
I'd suggest you look in the last place
That you will ever find me
'Cause I'm going out
With all my friends tonight, for once

And if you can do one whole thing
Then I'd suggest you go out too
And smile up a storm
'Cause we're all as sad
As you think that you are
So just smile

[chorus]
Cause I've been
Looking up, looking down, looking side to side
Wondering why this world is the way that it is
And why my momma cries
Every night when I'm trying to rest my head
On the floor
Half-stoned thinking "damn, this shit gets old"

And if you have a problem
I'd thoroughly suggest you look within
Before you go and blame someone else
Whose been blaming someone else
Their whole life

And I know we all got problems
But we got a bigger problem
We've been falling into pieces
And our power hides the knowledge
We've been working our whole damn lives;
But for what?
For them

[chorus]
See I've been
Looking up, looking down, looking side to side
Wondering why this world is the way that it is
And why my momma cries
Every night when I'm trying to rest my head
On the floor
Half-stoned thinking "damn, this shit gets old"

(lala's)

"Seven Years"
(originally by Saosin)

Taking on seven years
the holy ghost had left alone
Test my arms, kick like crazy
I've been trying way too long
only push the way off to fight you
Now I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not sure
Getting off my chest
the story ends

I would find a way without...
Tell him his eyes see too clear
I would find a way without you
Tell him his eyes see too clear
That mistake was gold
I know that without you
is something that I could never do
That was why staple the eyes and
seven dates for me to sell machines
and tear on

Seven years you assured me
that I'd be fine if I complied
only push the way off to fight you
(only push the way off to fight you)
Now I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not sure
Getting off my chest
the story ends

I would find a way without...
Tell him his eyes see too clear
I would find a way without you
Tell him his eyes see too clear
That mistake was gold
I know that without you
is something that I could never do
That was why staple the eyes and
seven dates for me to sell machines
and tear on

Don't treat me, I'm to blame (sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not sure)
Don't treat me like I ever accused you
[x5]

"Yesterday"
(originally by The Beatles)

Yesterday,
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though there here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday

Suddenly,
I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go,
I don't know she wouldn't say

I said something wrong,
Now I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay

Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Why she had to go,
I don't know she wouldn't say

I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay

Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Hmm, hm, hm
Mmm, mm, mm

"Sea What We Seas"

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
Got a lovely little lamp
Inside my brain

I've got you and me
That's a family
Let's sail the seven seas
and see what we see

'Cause life is silly
if you see like me
So please
Don't take life so seriously

I've got you and me,

Let's sail the seven seas
And see what we

If you see like me
So let's play pretend
And make believe

Let's sail the seven seas
And see what we

Everybody sing it with me

Life is just a melody
So why don't all the pissy people
Go ahead and sing it with me
ahh...
