Should've stayed home tonight,
Every time I see that guy,
I know things just ain't right,
Should've stayed home tonight,
Every time I see that guy,
I end up in a fight....
At the show, about a half past ten,
He walks in, here we go again,
Another show, another fight,
I could've just stayed in back,
Kept myself out of sight,
But the anger is a rush,
So quick to throw a fist,
What the hell is wrong with us....
But that's the jist of it,
The end of things,
One fights to prove,
And one fights the proof.
That's when I saw him,
In the mddle of the crowd,
He was swingin' around, messin' around,
pushin' around, fuckin' around,
Knocked some poor girl down.
What were we thinking,
What's going through our heads,
Instead of an open mind,
Closed eyes, closed hands instead.
Should've stayed home tonight,
Every time I see that guy,
I know things just ain't right,
It's not about might,
But about sight,
So hard to place the blame,
When no one is really right.
Y'know I thought when things were rough,
We could relate, the music was enough.
(repeat 2nd verse)
That's when it happened,
They knocked him to the floor,
Y'see taking him out permanently was
definately gonna blindly even up the score.
We let loose a monster,
Where mosters aren't allowed,
Instead of a family,
We're just a fuckin' crowd.
(chorus)
Just me, just you, scene status percieved separates us from you
Just me, just you, not gonna be like you,
Just me, just you, scene status percieved separates us from you
Just me, just you, i'm gonna see it through
Where was I when you got there
I was right where you were beforeyou reached the point of no return
Where you're looking down on me,
And I'm looking up at you,
And i'm thinking to myself,
Weren't we just equals.
Explain to me, or talk to me,
But all you do is point at me,
It's such a mystery,
Yeah, it's impressive sall the obstacles you've leapt,
But is it on us that you'll take your next step.
we'll throw it in your face,
But you can't own up,
You don't really care, soi keep it to myself then,
Now you're telling me people people you don't think that I,
Belong or deserve to be a part,
Until I pay my dues
So tell me if you can just what it is you did
That I ain't done yet
So I can feel less,
so i can be less
of the person that I am,
hte person I came to be
The person you don't want around
Excuse if I don't sound so sincere
But there's just no way, that I'm gonna go
(repeat chorus)
You went head first, I went feet first
when i see her eyes
they could never lie
even though she tries to hide all the pain and sadness deep inside
time and time again
she'll be with her friends
she don't know just why
but when they see her they can tell she cries
don't look back, just go on
don't let go, just hold on
oh y'know she cries
and when she sees that place
then she sees his face
all the words were spoke
then you know her heart was broke
i know it is stills soon
but time will heal all wounds
i'll always be by her side
to hold her when she feels the need to cry
who would've thought
and who coulda known
and who shoulda shown you
a better way
I must say, don't just listen to me
well everyone's gotta make their own life so
well look at me, and look at you, and look at them
are we the same as all them? no!
(but here we are) so why the animosity?
everyone's just waiting for the future
it's coming right now
so much to do and so little time
opportunitys a window and i'm lookin' outta mine
no line is too thin to walk if i watch my step
everyone's just waiting for a failure
so what's the angle
what's the scam
what's the plan
the media feeds the short attention span
it's your mind i won't make it up for you
i'm just hoping that i made the right move
we all do
I don't know
if where i'm goings where i really want to go
if we're really gonna get there
clarify confusion with integrity
everyone's gotta make that big decision
everyone
all my people they go
all my people they say
hold onto hope
we're just lookin for a sign
but you gotta choose the right way
mistakes are just fine
just don't make excuses
cuz everyone is watching
your every step
your every move
your every fear brings paranoia
and it gets you down
but i have seen just recently
that the broken can mend so easily
free your spirit
and life will follow
and it's all right now.
bench i lay
hundreds ofmiles away
my bed is warm and waits for me well
lost in Chicago
no money in my pocket and the rain on my face
carry on they say to me
carry on they say
the EL roars
lost my flier to the vindictives show
and wouldn't ya know
no one can tell me
and even if they do well I don't understand no
Clark and Belmont
she laughs at something in a donut shop
well i like her smile yeah
coffee sounds good
but there kiss has me changing my mind
carry on they say to me
carry on they say
how where'd you think you don't know
nobody know but still they go on
not knowin not knowin
all right and so blind
