Today is the day, and we need to figure out what to to
'cause black's in bloom. Just take every little bit as it comes.
We're S.O.L., but there's always a way out if you need it,
sink or swim. The sun's gone down, but the light shines in.
So don't hesitate, fundamate great change, 'cause
when it's all said and done, we're in the same cage.
Don't be afraid of what to say.
We'll watch our problems fade away.
There's nothing wrong with
starting on a brand new day.
We'll let the moonlight
bring us closer each and every night.
There's nothing wrong with
starting on a brand new day.
Today is today, and we need to figure out what to do
with the afternoon, 'cause recent free time's left me thinking,
and thinking's left me worrying about bigger things
than chicks and parties, what to do with my life, and governments
in other countries. But what do I know? It's only rock n' roll.
It's dead like Led and Dylan's getting old.
Don't be afraid of what to say.
We'll watch our problems fade away.
There's nothing wrong with
Starting on a brand new day.
We'll let the moonlight
bring us closer each and every night.
There's nothing wrong with
starting on a brand new day.

Lesson Five

Words sharp like knives to my body
left me stranded here alone to be.
I've been as cool as I can be.
The day turns and everything is evening.
I'm not gone, yeah you know me,
or at least I know myself and what's happening.
Understanding by way of an objective perspective.
Haven't seen the sun
since you've been gone
It's just begun and
it's been so long, yeah
I'm trying. I'll get by.
I'm ripped up,
I'm chopped up,
I'm screwed up
and messed up
Been left for dead,
bridges burned with my best buds.
I light, I'm alive. I ease my mind while driving.
I know I'll survive, but there's no denying that
you meant everything to me.
Now we both know why I can hardly breathe.
I'll come clean, I'll 'fess up,
I'll admit I messed up
The way that I've been
is a thing of the past.
Can't we start over
or just take it slower?
And three months from now you'll be kissing my ass
Even after all the shit that you dragged me through
I still didnt turn around and shit on you.
Isnt that what youd do? You're on a level
That i dont wanna stoop to.
The air is getting thick, the windows up.
It's dark, but we're all lit in this beat up V Dub Bug
I say im not giving a fuck but its easier said than done
When you bring me down
gotta get back up
but the plant in this glass
doesnt do that much
its just the only way
i know how to slow down time
(Well there's that and I'm)
Ripped up,
and chopped up
and screwed up
and messed up
ive been left for dead
bridges burned with my best buds
I light, I'm alive. i ease my mind while driving
I know ill survive but theres no denying that
you meant everything to me
silver beetle boxed so hot its hard to breathe
The walls black with smoke and
a friendship now broken
tomorrow is coming way too fast
the green went with envy, a passion for frenzy
its hard to live life when youre stuck in the past.
Ripped up
and chopped up
and screwed up
and messed up
Been left for dead
bridges burned with my best buds
i light, im alive, i ease my mind while driving
I know ill survive but then theres no denying that
this worlds not participating
hate's taken the place of waiting
I just learned lesson five, dont tell me all your lies
who are you to decide what i do with my mind
and my time?

The sun is shining by me
is it shining by you?
well this green bay summer sky
it is so blue, and it sends me off
to a place that's deep inside
lets my mind drift on
and race through time.
I don't know why
can you see what i see?
so surreal,
this life is nothing but a dream.
It brings me back to where i was.
my thoughts are all i see
staring me in the face
god, help me please
look at life through the window
not the rear-view mirror
every exit is an entry somewhere
my mind's in stitches
trapped behind the light of day.
all these simple little thoughts
are only keeping me sane
Look and see
This ain't how it's supposed to be
Should've spent the time
feeding off the good vibe.
Reality, she told me
i need to find a way to make this be
A little more than likely.
I think not, therefore
you better find a new way.
manipulate me no more
please dont drive me insane
well you stripped me clean
left me only with my dignity
I hope you know you'll never
take it away from me.

These last few days
Ain't been so swell
Don't know who I am
I'm not myself.
Bottled up my mind
Been thinking heavily
One too many pulls
it plays tricks on me
I need a place to go
to be alone
that to everyone else
would remain unknown
I see the world outside
the bar across the street
All i need is air,
and you wont let me breathe
and that's why
Everything and everyone Ive ever met,
or just came into contact with
has been telling me that
I should stay away and
all the energy this creates
really moves me, but
it makes me wish
theyd always come together
by the minds like this
but think about bigger shit.
Well she never left me
but i still feel all alone
it's been a long time coming
and i dont know where to call home
She doesnt give a fuck about me
I can ride for free,
but that's all itll ever be
Spend four months in a prison cell
you chose for youself
personalize your own demise
just create a personal hell
only four more years to go
society's lost reality
and its really starting to show
I havent got time for it.
Everything and everyone
Ive ever met or just came into contact with
has been telling me that
I should stay away
and all the energy this creates
really moves me,
but it makes me wish
theyd always come together
by the minds like this
but think about bigger shit.

She's an excellent writer
but i bet he never knew that
Sweet Mary Joe Jane
she just wanted to change the world
and he always stood beside her
this closed minded dope ass
he wasnt looking to change
he just wanted her to be his girl
and take care of him so he could do nothing
Don't you know you gotta learn yourself
before you can go and learn someone else?
He controlled her,
my green eyed lady.
She had to lose those blues.
Life's not a machine.
When i saw that this was happening,
I said, "Look here, Jim."
Im taking Mary Joe in,
and I dont care what you say or do about it."
You know i only wanna save you
I hate everything youve been through
but you gotta start to make good calls
so i can try to help you
and if you think ignorance is bliss,
you got another thing coming.
If you ignore it for too long,
soon youll be good for nothing.
Allow me to introduce you
to someone youll wish you never knew.
We've been waiting for this moment
for far too long.
And this situation seems golden.
But there's still one heart left broken.
and you left before you'd spoken,
and that's just wrong.
You got me wishing, got me thinking
got me stuck in this position
baby tell me, gotta find it
figure out your disposition
if you love me if you hate me
i promise it wont break me down
It's colder in here than it is outside
From the notion you made,
I took it on the chin.
Get the sticks and stones,
build the fire right.
One thing's for sure
your bark is worse than your bite.
I'll be the alley cat waiting
by your back door week after week
I'm bound to beg for more.
and tomorrow the sun will rise
while i rip myself down this perforated line.
She left her heart wide open
but she never showed it
she never showed it
Oh no, youd never know it
but she was so in love.
Now that same heart lies broken,
but youd never know it
youd never know it.
She never saw him coming.
She was so in
Love is the thing
that you know is gonna bring us
together when we need it most.
All i wanted you to do
was see it from my point of view
stuck in your own reality tv show
its not for me
but hey,
I'll look on the brighter side of things
I'm directing and your season's ending.
She left her heart wide open,
but she never showed it.
She never showed it.
Oh no you'd never know it,
but she was so in love.
Now that same heart lies broken
but youd never know it.
Youd never know it.
She never saw him coming.
She was so in love.

Red eyes
been flying
no target
in mind,
but to see
her beauty
is to see
why im blind.
and this constant
beat in my head
wont let me ignore
her timing
her presence
She feels something more
Will somebody please help me?
It feels like I'm about to hit the ceiling
For whatever it's worth
I'm not breaking.
But for whatever reason
You've got me shaking.
I wont let you bring me down.
I might.
Ive got my walls raised high
Im still fighting
you could be mine
just for the night
but something about this
just doesnt seem right
Come to find all along
id been feeding you lies
like american cheese
so we say goodbye
Watching the dreaming
and beating my chest
a process so processed
we're all unimpressed.
You can just keep that old smoke ring
I cant act like I just lost anything.
For whatever it's worth
im not breaking
but for whatever reason
you got me shaking
i wont let you bring me down
i might
i got my walls raised high
im still fighting
you could be mine
just for the night but
something about this
just doesnt seem right
youve been trying to see right through me
but youve been looking all wrong
I wear a window on my chest,
but youve been staring at the mirror on my palm
tick tock tick tock
time is running out.
if youre not ready to die,
then youre gonna have to shout
Id say it's pretty clear
you gotta quit asking for more
'cause you dont know what you want.
