The Girl of My Dreams

On the second of September, I asked you out that day
My heart leapt up with joy, when you said okay
That weekend we went on a boat ride underneath the sun
Being together with you was so much fun
You are the girl of my dreams
You make life worth while
You make everything okay
With your gentle smile
On our next date we went to the movies all by ourselves
I could never work up the nerve to tell you how I felt
I wanted to kiss you on the cheek
But I missed my chance and now I’m feeling oh so weak
You are the girl of my dreams
You are the girl of my dreams
You make life worth while
You make everything okay
With your gentle smile
On our third and final date at your house with some old friends
We were so close that night only holding hands
From that point on I knew I’d love you till the very end
Little did I know though, my life was not so grand
You are the girl of my dreams
You make life worth while
You make everything okay
With your gentle smile
On the second of October, you gave me back my art
I didn’t know what this meant but you were breaking my heart
You told me that you’d rather be friends than lovers
I went home that night and cried under the covers
You are the girl of my dreams
You make life worth while
You make everything okay
With your gentle smile
[Solo]
You are the girl of my dreams
You make life worth while
You make everything okay
With your gentle smile

Broken Hearted

I’ve had so many dreams about you every night
Sometimes they’re so real that I wake up and cry
When I see you after school, it makes me feel so bad
Knowing that I’ll never have you makes me feel so sad
I’m broken hearted
I’m broken hearted
I’m broken hearted
I’m broken hearted
I’ll build myself a wall so no one can climb in
Please hear what I’m not saying
Pink where are you at, have you forgot my name
I hide myself from friends, I just can’t stand the pain
I’m broken hearted
I’m broken hearted
I’m broken hearted
I’m broken hearted

My Best Friend

I thought you were my best friend
Turns out I was wrong
Cause you’ve been going behind my back
For way too long
For the last couple of days
I have been crying
To be forgotten by your friends
Is worse than dying
Last night at the Halloween party
I noticed you and her
Getting along now just fine
But I wasn’t too sure
For the last couple of days
I have been crying
To be forgotten by your friends
Is worse than dying
Saw you today at school
With the girl of my dreams
You were sitting super close
Lovers it seems
For the last couple of days
I have been crying
To be forgotten by your friends
Is worse than dying
[Solo]
For the last couple of days
I have been crying
To be forgotten by your friends
Is worse than dying

Going to California
03:15

I’m going to California with a pocket full of tears
The plane crashing down is the least of my fears
No what I’m afraid of is at the dock
My heart is heavy like a sunken rock
I’m going to California with a burden on my back
I’m ready to die out here, emptiness is what I packed
Why does she love him more than me?
Mountains as far as the eye can see
When I wake up I’ll be in bed
In the morning you’ll find me dead
You’ll find me dead, on the ground
You’ll find me dead, on the ground

L.A.
05:48

They say LA is the place to be
But I just want to get out
My friends don’t hear me
Even when I shout
Not a cloud in the sky
The sun is shining is bright
Seeing him with her
It might as well be night
Someday your wounds will heal
Your love will die today
You’ll find yourself again
In the city of LA
We’re all together now
But she’s the one that I miss
For her to be happy
Means that I don’t exist
I want to be a person
Without her I’m just a beast
I don’t show that I hurt
But they could ask at least
Someday your pain will go
Your love will die today
If you survive that is
In the city of LA
Walking in the street
They’re laughing and having fun
I die a little inside
Underneath the sun
No one says a word
They act as if all is fine
All I want to do
Is hang myself and die
Someday you’ll laugh with them
Your love will die today
If you let it go
In the city of LA

Rose Parade
03:18
|
|

They ask me to come down and watch the parade
To march down the street like a Duracell bunny
With a wink and a wave from the cavalcade
Throwing out candy that looks like money
To the people passing by, they all seem to be going the other way
Won’t you follow me down to the Rose Parade?
Tripped over a dog in a choke chain collar
People were shouting and pushing and saying
When I traded a smoke for a food stamp dollar
Ridiculous marching band started playing
Got me singing along with some halfhearted victory song
Won’t you follow me down to the rose parade?
Won’t you follow me down to the rose parade?
Won’t you follow me down to the rose parade?
Trumpet has obviously been drinking
Cause he’s fucking up even the simplest lines
They say it’s a sight that quite worth seeing
It’s just that everyone’s interest is stronger than mine
When they clean the street, I’ll be the only shit that’s left behind
Won’t you follow me down to the rose parade?
Won’t you follow me down to the rose parade?
Won’t you follow me down to the rose parade?

Pasadena
05:57
|
|

The Californian sunset is etched upon my mind
Wish that I could say I’m having a good time
Everyone’s happy except for me
The reason I’m so sad is obviously
Pasadena, where did I go wrong?
Pasadena, can you hear my song?
Pasadena, I’m all alone
Pasadena, you are my home
All those flowers, couldn’t comfort me
All those sights with nothing to see
All those marchers with no where to go
All those people that didn’t know
Pasadena, where did I go wrong?
Pasadena, can you hear my song?
Pasadena, I’m all alone
Pasadena, you are my home
The sky is starless and bible black
Your streets hold memories that take me back
Nothing has ever been the same
Wish that I could just forget your name
Pasadena, where did I go wrong?
Pasadena, can you hear my song?
Pasadena, I’m all alone
Pasadena, you are my home
[Solo]
Pasadena, where did I go wrong?
Pasadena, can you hear my song?
Pasadena, I’m all alone
Pasadena, you are my home

Everything Is Over

Everything is over now
There’s time for one more dance
While the night is young
There’s time for one more sweet romance
Fill up your aching heart
Forget the pain
Don’t let them tell you that you can’t
Realize that they’re all insane
Jump in the water
Before they come out
Sink to the bottom
Of the ocean floor
Jump in the water
Before they come out
Sink to the bottom
Of the ocean floor
Everything is over now
There’s time for one more waltz
Let them settle down
While your walls fall
Cleanse yourself tonight
While you have the chance
To hell we will go
For that sweet romance
No don’t do it now
It’s not your time yet
Don’t ruin their night
Never let them forget you
For that sweet romance
No don’t do it now
It’s not your time yet
Don’t ruin their night
Never let them forget you
