wish you would step back from that ledge my friend You could cut ties with all the lies that youve been living in And if you do not want to see me again I would understand I would understand The angry boy a bit too insane Icing over a secret pain You know you dont belong Youre the first to fight Youre way too loud Youre the flash of light on a burial shroud I know somethings wrong Well everyone I know has got a reason To say put the past away I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend You could cut ties with all the lies that youve been living in And if you do not want to see me again I would understand I would understand Well hes on the table and hes gone to code And I do not think anyone knows What theyre doing here And your friends have left you Youve been dismissed I never thought it would come to this And i, I want you to know Everyones got to face down the demons Maybe today You could put the past away I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend You could cut ties with all the lies that youve been living in And if you do not want to see me again I would understand I would understand (x 5) Understand Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Can you put the past away I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend I would understand I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend I would understand I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend And I would understand I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend I would understand I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend I would understand

I'm packed and I'm holding I'm smiling, she living, she golden She lives for me Says she lives for me Ovation her own motivation She comes round and she goes down on me And I make her smile It's like a drug for you Do ever what you want to do Coming over you Keep on smiling, What we go through One stop to the rhythm that divides you And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse Chop another line like a coda with a curse I come on like a freak show takes the stage We give them the games we play, She said I want something else To get me through this Semi-charmed kind of life (Baby, baby) I want something else I'm not listening when you say Good-bye The sky it was gold, it was rose I was taking tips of it to my nose And I wish I could get back there Some place back there Smiling in the pictures you would take Doing crystal meth Will lift you up until you break It won't stop I won't come down, I keep stock With a tick-tock rhythm A bump for the drop And then I bumped up I took the hit that I was given Then I bumped again And then I bumped again I said.. How do I get back there to The place where I fell asleep inside you? How do I get myself back to The place where you said I want something else To get me through this Semi-charmed kind of life (Baby, baby) I want something else I'm not listening when you say Good-bye I believe in the sand beneath my toes The beach gives a feeling An earthy feeling I believe in the faith that grows And the four right chords can make me cry When I'm with you I feel like I could die And that would be all right All right And when the plane came in She said she was crashing The velvet it rips In the city We tripped On the urge to feel alive But now I'm struggling to survive Those days you were wearing that velvet dress You're the priestess, I must confess Those little red panties They pass the test Slides up around the belly Face down on the mattress One And you hold me And we're broken Still it's all that I want to do, just a little now Feel myself head made of the ground I was scared, I'm not coming down, no no And I won't run for my life She's got her jaws now locked down in a smile But nothing is all right All right I want something else To get me through this... Life.......baby I want something else I'm not listening when you say Good-bye x4 The sky it was gold, it was rose I was takin' tips of it to my nose And I wish I could get there someplace, back there In the place we use to start our lives I want something else

Losing a whole year Losing a whole year I remember you and me used to spend The whole God-damned day in bed Losing a whole year Lying in your room wed lay like dogs The phone would ring like a joke thats left unsaid Losing a whole year Rich daddy left you with a parachute Your voice sound like money and your face is cute But your daddy left you with no love You touch everything with a velvet glove and Now you want to try a life of sin You want to be down with the down and in Always copping my truths I kind of get the feeling like I'm being used And now I realize you never heard One God-damned word I ever said Losing a whole year Losing a whole year I took your stuff and put it in the basement When I found out what the smile on your face meant Ive seen you pop that check Craning your neck at my car wreck and It always seems the juice used to flow In the car, in the kitchen you were good to go Now were stuck with the tube A sink full of dishes and some aqualube And I remember you and me used to Spend the whole God-damned day in bed Losing a whole year And if its not the defense then you're on the attack When you start talking I hear the Prozac Convinced you've found your place With the pierced queer teens in cyberspace When you were yourself it tasted sweet But it sours into a routine deceit Well this drama is a bore And I don't want to play no more Losing a whole year I remember you and me used to Spend the whole God-damned day in bed Losing a whole year

I'm on a train, but there's no one at the helm And there's a demon in my brain Who starts to overwhelm whelm whelm whelm whelm And there it goes, my last chance for peace You lay me down, but I get no release And I say I, I try to keep awake I try to swim beneath I try to keep awake But I, I can feel this narcolepsy slide Into another nightmare And there's a demon in my head who starts to play A nightmare tape loop of what went wrong yesterday And I hold my breath till its more than I can take And I close my eyes and dream that I'm awake I try to keep awake I try to keep awake I try to keep awake But I, I can feel this narcolepsy slide Into another nightmare I read dead Russian authors volumes at a time I write everything down except whats on my mind Cause my greatest fear is that sucking sound And then I know that Ill never get back out And there's a bone in my hand that connects to a drink In a crowded room where the glasses clink And Ill buy you a beer and well drink it deep Because that keeps me from falling asleep I said How'd you like to be alone and drowning(x 4) Still I find this narcolepsy slide slide Into another nightmare Keep awake, keep awake, keep awake And I can feel this narcolepsy slide

Can I graduate Can I graduate Can I look in faces that I meet Can I get my punk ass off the street Ive been living on for so long Can I graduate To the bastard talking down to me Your whipping boy calamity Cross your fingers, I'm going to knock it all down Can I graduate Echo fading we cant let go She goes walking by in slow mo Sell your heart out for a buck Go on fade out before I get stuck Talking to somebody like you Do you live the days you go through Will this song live on long after we do Can I graduate Can I look in faces that I meet Can I get my punk ass off the street Wont die on the vine I want to knock it all down Can I graduate Echo fading, candle blow Did you flash out long ago Cross my fingers, I don't know Someone poked you down below Can I graduate Can I graduate Can I graduate Can I graduate Can I graduate Can I get my punk ass off the street Can I look in faces that I meet I'm not waiting here for you to die Will this song live on long after we do
