3x5 I'm writing you to Catch you up on places I've been And you held this letter Probably got excited, but there's nothing else inside it Didn't have a camera by my side this time Hoping I would see the world through both my eyes Maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm in the mood to lose my way with words Today skies are painted colors of a cowboy cliche And strange how clouds that look like mountains in the sky Are next to mountains anyway Didn’t have a camera by my side this time Hoping I would see the world through both my eyes Maybe I will tell you all about it when I’m in the mood to lose my way But let me say You should have seen that sunrise 06

with your own eyes It brought me back to life You'll be with me next time I go outside No more 3x5 I Guess you had to be there I guess you had to be with me today I finally overcame Tryin' to fit the world inside a picture frame Maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm in the mood to Lose my way but let me say You should have seen that sunrise with your own eyes It brought me back to life You'll be with me next time I go outside No more 3x5 Just no more 3x5

back to you back to you it always comes around back to you I tried to forget you I tried to stay away But it’s too late over you I’m never over over you something about you It’s just the way you move the way you move me I’m so good at forgetting and I quit every game I’ve played but forgive me love I can’t turn and walk away this way back to you it always comes around back to you I walk with your shadow I’m sleeping in my bed with your silhouette should have smiled in that picture if it’s the last that I’ll see of you it’s the least that you could not do oh I will leave the light on I’ll never give up on you leave the light on for me too back to me I know that it comes back to me doesn’t it scare you your will is not as strong as it used to be 10 08



BADGE AND GUN Give me my badge and gun Give me the road that I may run Give me that peaceful, wandering-free I used to know I’ve waited all I can But I’m just not a patient man Man, I’ve been hiding here For seven months or so Hand me down my coat and hat And grab the winter one at that You never know how long I’ll be away Give me my badge and gun Give me the songs that I once sung Give me those jet black, kick-back Lay down nights alone This house is safe and warm But I was made to chase the storm Taking the whole world on with big ole’ empty arms

12

Tell my friends I tried my best That one day I just up and left They probably saw it coming anyway What can I say, Hey, hey The lock is on the cellar door I can’t remember what it’s for I ain’t been down those stairs in oh so long So, so long Give me my badge and gun Give me the road that I must run Give me that peaceful, wandering-free I used to know A copy of your key is hanging where it used to be Good as you’ve always been to me The life I need to lead Is somewhere out there calling over those hills

CLARITY I worry I weigh three times my body I worry I throw my fear around But this morning, there's a calm I can't explain The rock candy's melted only diamonds now remain By the time I recognize this moment This moment will be gone But I will bend the light pretend 14 12

That it somehow lingered on When all I got's And I will wait to find If this will last forever And I will wait to find If this will last forever And I will pay no mind Well it won't, and it won't, cause it can't It just can't


It's not supposed to Is there a second in time I looked around? Did I sail through or drop my anchor down? Was anything enough to kiss the ground? And say I'm here now and she's here now? So much wasted in the afternoon

So much sacred in the month of June How About you? And I will wait to find If this will last forever And I will wait to find That it won't, and it won't, it won't And I will pay no mind Worry About the rainy weather And I will waste no time Remembering our life together 15 13


Comfortable I just remembered that time at the market Snuck up behind me And jumped on my shopping cart And rolled down aisle five You looked behind you to smile back at me crashed into a rack full of magazines They asked us if we could leave can't remember what went wrong last september Though I'm sure you'd remind me if you had to Our love was comfortable and so broken in I sleep with this new girl I'm still getting used to My friends all approve Say she's gonna be good for you They throw me high fives She says the bible is all that she reads

16

And prefers that I not use profanity Your mouth was so dirty Life of the party And she swears that she's artsy But you could distinguish Miles from Coltrane Our love was comfortable and so broken in She's perfect So flawless Or so they say She thinks I can't see the smile that she's faking And poses for pictures that aren't being taken I loved you Grey sweatpants No makeup, So perfect Our love was comfortable and so broken in She's perfect So flawless I'm not impressed I want you back


Covered in Rain These days with the world getting colder She spends more time sleeping over Than I planned Tonight we're gonna order in Drinkin wine and watching CNN Its dark I know but then again It's the brightest thing I've got When I'm covered in rain, rain When I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain From fireworks to fireplaces, Summer stole what fall replaces And now we're people watching All the people people watching us right BY now Standing by the missing signs At the CVS, by the checkout line She puts her quiet hands in mine, Cause she's the brightest thing I got When I'm covered in rain, rain When I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain Now I'm covered in rain, rain Covered in rain Come December Lydia left She mentioned something about it being for the best And I can't say I desagree It's killing me Now we're standing facing west Tracing my fingers around the silhouette I haven't gotten used to it yet But it's the brightest thing I've got When I'm covered in rain, rain When I'm covered in rain, rain, rain, rain Now I'm covered in rain, rain Covered in rain


DAUGHTERS I know a girl She puts the color inside of my world But she's just like a maze Where all of the walls all continually change And I've done all I can To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands Now I'm starting to see Maybe it's got nothing to do with me Fathers be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers who turn into mothers So mothers be good to your daughters too Oh, you see that skin? It's the same she's been standing in Since the day she saw him walking away Now she's left Cleaning up the mess he made So fathers be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers who turn into mothers So mothers be good to your daughters too Boys, you can break You'll find out how much they can take Boys will be strong And boys soldier on But boys would be gone without warmth from A woman's good, good heart On behalf of every man Looking out for every girl You are the god and the weight of her world So fathers be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers who turn into mothers So mothers be good to your daughters, too So mothers be good to your daughters, too So mothers be good to your daughters, too 16

EDGE OF DESIRES Now that we are over As the loving kind We’ll be dreaming ways To keep the good alive Only when we want is not A compromise I`ll be pouring tears Into drying eyes Friends, lovers, or nothing There can only be one Friends, lovers, or nothing there’ll never be an in-between So give it up You whisper Come on over Cause you’re two drinks in But in the morning I will say Good-bye again Think we’ll never fall into the jealous game? The streets all flood with blood of those who felt the same Friends, lovers, or nothing There can only be one 18

Friends, lovers, or nothing there’ll never be an in-between So give it up Friends, lovers or nothing We can really only ever be one Friends, lovers or nothing We’ll never be the in-between so give it up We’ll never be the in-between so give it up Anything other than yes is no Anything other than stay is go Anything less than I love you is lying Anything other than yes is no Anything other than stay is go Anything less than I love you is lying Anything other than yes is no Anything other than stay is go Anything less than I love you is lying...


GRAVITY Gravity is working against me And gravity wants to bring me down Oh I'll never know what makes this man With all the love that his heart can stand Dream of ways to throw it all away OH Gravity is working against me And gravity wants to bring me down Oh twice as much ain't twice as good It can't sustain like one half could It's wanting more That's gonna send me to my knees Oh twice as much ain’t twice as good

It can’t sustain like one half could It’s wanting more That’s gonna send me to my knees Oh gravity stay the hell away from me OH gravity has taken better men than me Now how can that be? Just keep me where the light is Just keep me where the light is Just keep me where the light is Come on, keep me where the light is Come on, keep me where the light is Come on, keep me where Keep me where the light is

HALF OF MY HEART I was born in the arms of imaginary friends Free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been Then you come on crashing in Like the realest thing Trying my best to understand all that your love can bring Oh, half of my heart's got a grip on the situation Half of my heart takes time Half of my heart's got the right mind to tell you that I can't keep loving you Oh, with half of my heart I was made to believe I'd never love somebody else made a plan, stayed the man who can only love himself

Oh, with half of my heart with half of my heart Your faith is strong But I can only fall short for so long down the road, later on You will hate that I never gave more to you than half of my heart But I can't stop loving you I can't stop loving you I can't stop loving you With half of my, half of my heart Oh, half of my heart Half of my heart's got a real good imagination Half of my heart's got you Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you That half of my heart won't do

Lonely was the song I sang 'Til the day you came Showing me another way and all that my love can bring

Half of my heart is a shotgun wedding To a bride with a paper ring AND Half of my heart is the part of a man Who's never truly loved anything

Oh, half of my heart’s got a grip on the situation Half of my heart takes time Half of my heart’s got the right mind to tell you that I can’t keep loving you

half of my heart Oh, half of my heart Half of my heart Oh, half of my heart Half of my heart Oh, half of my heart

Heartbreak Warfare Lightning strike Inside, a chance to keep me up at night Dream of ways To make you understand my pain Clouds of sulfur in the air Bombs are falling everywhere It's heartbreak warfare Once you want it to begin, No one really ever wins In heartbreak warfare If you want more love, why don't you say so? If you want more love, why don't you say so? Drop his name Push it in and twist the knife again Watch my face As I pretend to feel no pain, PAIN, PAIN Clouds of sulfur in the air Bombs are falling everywhere It's heartbreak warfare Once you want it to begin,

No one really ever wins In heartbreak warfare. If you want more love, why don't you say so? If you want more love, why don't you say so? Just say so How come the only way to know how high you get me is to see how far I fall God only knows how much I'd love you if you let me but I can't break through it all It's a HEART heartbreak I don't care if we don't sleep at all tonight Let's just fix this whole thing now I swear to God we're gonna get it right If you lay your weapon down Red wine and ambien You're talking shit again it's heartbreak warfare Good to know it's all a game Disappointment has a name it's heartbreak warfare it’s heartbreak warfare it’s heartbreak warfare 25


I DON’T TRUST MYSELF No I'm not the man I used to be lately See you met me at an interesting time If my past is any sign of your future You should be warned before I let you inside Hold on to whatever you find baby Hold on to whatever will get you through Hold on to whatever you find baby I don't trust myself with loving you I will beg my way into your garden And then I’ll break my way out when it rains Just to get back to the place where I started So I can watch you back all over again Hold on to whatever you find baby Hold on to whatever will get you through Hold on to whatever you find baby I don't trust myself with loving you Who do you love?

IN YOUR ATMOSPHERE I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore I don't know what it's like to land And not race to your door I don't think I'm gonna go to la anymore I don't think I'm gonna go to la anymore I'm not sure that I really ever could Hold on to your hotel key In your bedroom neighboorhood We sleep walk in Hollywood I'm gonna steer clear I burn up in your atmosphere I'm gonna steer clear Cause I'd die if I saw you I'd die if I didn't see you there So I don't think I'm gonna go to LA anymore I don’t think I'm gonna go to la anymore

I get lost on the boulevard at night Without your voice to tell me I love you, take a right The ten and the two is the loneliest sight I'm gonna steer clear I burn up in your atmosphere I'm gonna steer clear Cause I'd die if I saw you I'd die if I didn't see you I'm gonna steer clear I burn up in your atmosphere I'm gonna steer clear Cause I'd die if I saw you I'd die if I didn't see you there See you there think I'm gonna stay, gonna stay think I’m gonna stay And all the street lights say nevermind, nevermind And the canyon lines say nevermind Sunset says we see this all the time Nevermind, never you mind

Wherever I go Whatever I do I wonder where I am in my relationship to you Wherever you go Wherever you are I watch your life play out in pictures from afar Wherever I go Whatever I do I wonder where I am in my relationship to you Wherever you go Wherever you are I watch that pretty life play out in pictures from afar 29


Love Song for No One Staying home alone on a Friday Flat on the floor looking back On old love Or lack thereof After all the crushes are faded And all my wishful thinking was wrong I'm jaded, I hate it I'm tired of being alone So hurry up and get here So tired of being alone So hurry up and get here Get HERE Searching all my days just to find you I'm not sure who I'm looking for I'll know it When I see you Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom Staying up all night just to write A love song for no one I'm tired of being alone So hurry up and get here So tired of being alone So hurry up and get here I could have met you in a sandbox I could have passed you on the sidewalk Could I have missed my chance And watched you walk away? I'm tired of being alone So hurry up and get here So tired of being alone So hurry up and get here I’m tired of being alone So hurry up and get here So tired of being alone So hurry up and get here You'll be so good You'll be so good for me 30

My Stupid Mouth My stupid mouth Has got me in trouble I said too much again To a date over dinner yesterday And I could see She was offended She said well anyway Just dying for a subject change It’s another social casualty Score one more for me How could I forget? Mama said think before speaking No filter in my head What's a boy to do I guess he better find one soon We bit our lips She looked out the window Rolling tiny balls of napkin paper I played a quick game of chess with the salt and pepper shaker And I could see clearly An indelible line was drawn Between what was good, what just slipped out and what went wrong The way she feels about me has changed Thanks for playing, try again. How could I forget? 32

Mama said think before speaking No filter in my head what's a boy to do I guess he better find one I'm never speaking up again It only hurts me I'd rather be a mystery Than she desert me I'm never speaking up again Starting now, starting now One more thing Why is it my fault? So maybe I try too hard But it's all because of this desire I just wanna be liked I just wanna be funny Looks like the joke's on me So call me captain backfire I'm never speaking up again It only hurts me I'd rather be a mystery Than she desert me I'm never speaking up again I'm never speaking up again I'm never speaking up again Starting now, starting now


NEON When sky blue gets dark enough To see the colors of the city lights A trail of ruby red and diamond white Hits her like a sunrise She comes and goes and comes and goes Like no one can Tonight she's out to lose herself And find a high on Peachtree Street From mixed drinks to techno beats It's always heavy into everything She comes and goes and comes and goes Like no one can She comes and goes

and no one knows She's slipping through my hands She's always buzzing just like Neon, neon, Neon, neon Who knows how long how long, how long She can go before she burns away I can't be her angel now You know it's not my place to hold her down And it's hard for me to take a stand When I would take her anyway I can She comes and she goes Like no one can She comes and she goes

She's slipping through my hands She's always buzzing just like Neon, neon, Neon, neon Who knows how long how long, how long She can go before she burns away, Away She comes and she goes Like no one can She comes and she goes She's slippinG through my hands She's always buzzing just like Neon, neon, Neon, neon Who knows how long how long, how long She can go before she burns away

No Such Thing welcome to the real world she said to me condescendingly, Take a seat, take your life plot it out in black and white well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings and the drama queens I'd like to think the best of me is still hiding up my sleeve they love to tell you stay inside the lines but something's better on the other side I want to run through the halls of my high school I want to scream at the top of my lungs I just found out there's no such thing as the real world just a lie you've got to rise above so the good boys and girls take the so-called right track faded white hats grabbing credits and maybe transfers they read all the books but they can't find the answers AND all of our parents, they're getting older I wonder if they've wished for anything better while in their memories, tiny tragedies they love to tell you stay inside the lines but something's better on the other side I want to run through the halls of my high school I want to scream at the top of my lungs I just found out there's no such thing as the real world just a lie you've got to rise above I am invincible, I am invincible, I am invincible, as long as I'm alive I want to run through the halls of my high school I want to scream at the top of my lungs I just found out there's no such thing as the real world just a lie you've got to rise above I just can't wait till my ten year reunion I'm gonna bust down the double doors and when I stand on these tables before you you will know what all this time was for 37


ON THE WAY HOME The summer's over This town is closing They're waving people Out of the ocean We have the feeling like we were floating We never noticed where time was going Do you remember when we first got here The days were longer, the nights were hot here Now, it's September; the engine's starting You're empty-handed and heavy-hearted But just remember on the way home That you were never meant to feel alone It takes a little while, but you'll be fine Another good time coming down the line You'll go back to love that's waiting I'll unpack in a rented room How's that life you swear you're hating Grass is greener that makes two But just remember on the way home That you were never meant to feel alone Just look me up, get back on the bus I'll see you next week If you need my trust Life ain't short, but it sure is small You get forever but nobody at all Life ain't short, but it sure is small You get forever but nobody at all It don't come often, and it don't stay long But just remember on the way home That you don't ever have to feel alone Just stay on the run; and get off the grid Hide yourself out like you know that I did And if you might find that you're running is done A little bit of Heaven never hurt no one


PERFECT LONELY Had a little love, but I spread it thin Falling in her arms and out again Made a bad name for my game around town Tore up my heart and shut it down

I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely 'Cause I don't belong to anyone Nobody belongs to me

Nothing to do, Nowhere to be A simple little kind of free Nothing to do, No one but me And that's all I need

That's the way that's the way that's the way that I want it...

I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely Cause I don't belong to anyone Nobody belongs to me I see my friends around from time to time When their ladies let them slip away And when they ask me how I'm doing with mine This is always what I say Nothing to do, Nowhere to be A simple little kind of free Nothing to do, No one to be Is it really hard to see Why I'm perfectly lonely? I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely Cause I don't belong to anyone Nobody belongs to me And this is not to say There never comes a day I'll take my chances and start again And when I look behind On all my younger times I have to thank the wrongs that led me to a love so strong 39


SAY

42

Take all of your wasted honor Every little past frustration Take all of your so-called problems Better put them in quotations

in your head Living out the same old moment Knowing you’d be better off instead if you could only

Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to say

Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to say

Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to say

Walking like a one man army Fighting with the shadows

Have no fear for giving in Have no fear for giving over


You’d better know that in the end it’s better to say too much Than never to say what you need to say again

Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to Say what you need to Say what you need to say

Even if your hands are shaking And your faith is broken Even as the eyes are closing Do it with a heart wide open

Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to say

Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to say Say what you need to say

Shadow Days Did you know that you could be wrong And swear you're right Some people been known to do it All their lives But you find yourself alone Just like you found yourself before Like I found myself in pieces On the hotel floor Hard times help me see I'm a good man, with a good heart Had a tough time, got a rough start But I finally learned to let it go Now I'm right here and I'm right now And I'm open knowing somehow That my shadow days are over My shadow days are over now Well, I ain't no troublemaker And I never meant her harm But it doesn't mean I didn't make it Hard to carry on

Well, it sucks to be honest And it hurts to be real But it's nice to make some love That I can finally feel Hard times let me be I’m a good man, with a good heart Had a tough time, got a rough start But I finally learned to let it go Now I’m right here and I’m right now And I’m open knowing somehow That my shadow days are over My shadow days are over now I’m a good man, with a good heart Had a tough time, got a rough start But I finally learned to let it go Now I’m right here and I’m right now And I’m open knowing somehow That my shadow days are over My shadow days are over now

SLOW DANCING IN A BURNING ROOM It's not a silly little moment It's not the storm before the calm This is the deep and dying breath of This love that we've been working on Can't seem to hold you like I want to So I can feel you in my arms Nobody's gonna come and save you We pulled to many false alarms We're going down And you can see it too We're going down And you know that we're doomed My dear We're slow dancing in a burning room I was the one you always dreamed of You were the one I tried to draw How dare you say it's nothing to me Baby, you're the only light I ever saw I'll make the most of all the sadness You'll be a bitch because you can 44

You'll try to hit me just to hurt me So you leave me feeling dirty cause you can't understand We're going down And you can see it too We're going down And you know that we're doomed My dear We're slow dancing in a burning room Go cry about it why don't you Go cry about it why don't you Go cry about it why don't you My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room Burning room, burning room Don't you think we ought to know by now Don't you think we should have learned somehow

VULTURES Some of us, We're hardly ever here The rest of us, were born to disappear How do I stop myself from Being just a number How will I hold my head To keep from going under Down to the wire I wanted water but I'll walk through the fire If this is what it takes To take me even higher Then I'll come through Like I do When the world keeps Testing me, testing me, testing me How did they find me here What do they want from me All of these vultures hiding Right outside my door I hear them whispering They're tryin to ride it out They've never gone this long Without a kill before Down to the wire I wanted water but I'll walk through the fire If this is what it takes 46

To take me even higher Then I'll come through Like I do When the world keeps Testing me, testing me, testing me Wheels up I got to leave this evening I can't seem to shake these vultures Out of my trail Power is made, by power being taken SO I We keep on running To protect the situation Down to the wire I wanted water but I'll walk through the fire If this is what it takes To take me even higher Then I'll come through Like I do When the world keeps Testing me, testing me What You’RE gonna do about it What You’RE gonna do about it What You’RE gonna do about it Don’t give up, give up Don’t give up, give up, give up Don’t give up, give up Don’t give up, give up, give up


waiting on the day I'm waitinG on the day When my thoughts are my own When this house is my home And plans are made When you'll be there for me baby When you'll love me all the way When you take my side in every little firefight When you hang your things and stay I'm waiting on the day When my life on the run Bleaches out in the sun and Shows my age I'm waiting on the day When that voice comes to say That it's not wrong what you did For just a kid When you'll be there for me baby When you'll love me all the way When you take my side in every little firefight When you hang your things and stay I'm waiting on the day Waiting on the day When these words are in stone When the kids are all grown And we go dancing Oh can you do it baby? Can you love me all the way? Will you tie me tight in little strands of paradise? Will you walk with me before the morning fades? I'm waiting on the day Waiting on the day

51


WAITING ON THE WORLD TO CHANGE ONe, two one, two three Me and all my friends We're all misunderstood They say we stand for nothing And there's no way we ever could Now we see everything that's going wrong With the world and those who lead it We just feel like we don't have the means To rise above and beat it So we keep waiting Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change It's hard to beat the system When we're standing at a distance So we keep waiting Waiting on the world to change Now, if we had the power To bring our neighbors home from war They would have never missed a Christmas No more ribbons on their door

50

And when you trust your television What you get is what you got Cause when they own the information, oh They can bend it all they want That's why we're waiting Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change It's not that we don't care, We just know that the fight ain't fair So we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change We're still waiting Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change One day our generation Is gonna rule the population So we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change No we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change Waiting on the world to change Waiting on the world to change Waiting on the world to change

WILDFIRE River's strong, you can swim inside it We could string some lights Up the hill beside it Tonight the moon's so bright You could drive with your headlights out Cause a little bit of summer's what the whole year's all about You look fine, fine, fine Put your feet up next to mine We can watch that water line Get higher and higher Say, say, say Ain't it been some kind of day You and me been catching on Like a wildfire Don't get up just to get another You can drink from mine We can't leave each other We can dance with the dead You can rest your head On my shoulder if you want toGet older with me Cause a little bit of summer makes a lot of history And you look fine, fine, fine Put your feet up next to mine We can watch that water line Get higher and higher Say, say, say Ain't it been some kind of day You and me been catching on Like a wildfire I got a rock from the river in my medicine bag Magpie feather in his medicine bag Say, say, say Ain't it been some kind of day You and me been catchin' on Like a wildfire 53


Who Says Who says I can’t get stoned? Turn off the lights and the telephone Me in my house alone Who says I can’t get stoned? Who says I can’t be free? From all of the things that I used to be Rewrite my history Who says I can’t be free? It’s been a long night in New York City It’s been a long night in Baton Rouge I don’t remember you looking any better But then again I don’t remember you Who says I can’t get stoned? Call up a girl that I used to know Fake love for an hour or so Who says I can’t get stoned? Who says I can’t take time? Meet all the girls on the county line Wait on fate to send a sign Who says I can’t take time? It’s been a long night in New York City It’s been a long night in Austin too I don’t remember you looking any better But then again I don’t remember you Who says I can’t get stoned? Plan a trip to Japan alone Doesn’t matter if I even go Who says I can’t get stoned? It’s been a long night in New York City It’s been a long time since 22 I don’t remember you looking any better But then again I don’t remember don’t remember you

WHY GEORGIA I am driving up 85 in the Kind of morning that lasts all afternoon just stuck inside the gloom Four more exits to my apartment but I am tempted to keep the car in drive And leave it all behind Cause I wonder sometimes About the outcome Of a still verdictless life Am I living it right? Am I living it right? Am I living it right? Why, why georgia, why? I rent a room and I fill the spaces with Wood in places to make it feel like home But all I feel's alone It might be a quarter-life crisis Or just the stirring in my soul Either way I wonder sometimes About the outcome Of a still verdictless life


Am I living it right? Am I living it right? Am I living it right? Why, why georgia, why? So what, so i've got a smile on But it's hiding the quiet superstitions in my head Don't believe me Don't believe me When I say i've got it down Everybody is just a stranger But that's the danger in going my own way I guess it's the price I have to pay Still everything happens for a reason Is no reason not to ask myself if I am Living it right Am I living it right? Am I living it right? Why, tell me why why, why georgia, why?

Your body is a wonderland We got the afternoon You got this room for two One thing I've left to do Discover me Discovering you

Though I might leave to find it I'll never let your head hit the bed Without my hand behind it

One mile to every inch of Your skin like porcelain One pair of candy lips and Your bubblegum tongue

You want love? We'll make it Swim in a deep sea Of blankets Take all your big plans And break 'em This is bound to be awhile

And if you want love We'll make it Swim in a deep sea Of blankets Take all your big plans And break 'em This is bound to be awhile

Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonder I'll use my hands Your body is a wonderland

Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonder I'll use my hands Your body is a wonderland

Damn baby You frustrate me I know you're mine all mine all mine But you look so good it hurts sometimes

Something About the way the hair falls in your face I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase You tell me where to go and

Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonder I'll use my hands Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonderland
