One time for the way you said you were With another guy that you prefer I’m picking up the pieces Well it’s all your fault they’re never coming back for you Said it’s all your fault she’s never going back for you Some advice for the next time you decide That all you need to do is set aside Somebody willing to come back It won’t be me, so start searching far and wide For a boy to take your shit in stride ‘Cause that’s not the way I roll Well it’s all your fault they’re never coming back for you One more time - it’s all your fault she’s never going back for you I don’t know how I can still be Bitter about what you did to me After all these years I never wanna see Your face again So get me out, get me some breathing room Another foot or two is all I need to make sure I won’t ever fall in love with you One time for the way you said you were With another guy that you prefer I got another confession, yeah Some advice for the next time you decide That all you need to do is set aside Somebody willing to come back It’s all your fault they’re never coming back for you One last time - it’s all your fault I’m never going back for you I don’t know how I can still be Bitter about what you did to me After all these years I never wanna see your face again So get me out, get me some breathing room Another foot or two is all I need to make sure I won’t ever fall in love with you Fall in love with you Well it’s all your fault this time I know I’m never coming back for you Again

She Said 02:36
It’s not that I don’t love you This is something I’m not used to Please forgive me for this things I never said Well you could find another guy And I’ll just say that I’m alright The next time I run into you And she said I don’t think I can talk to you I don’t think I’m getting through Your thick head And I don’t think I can talk to you I don’t think I’d ever do The things she said Goodbye’s always harder than you think it’s gonna be Well maybe next time I’ll think things through I’ve made mistakes Still see your face I’ll keep your number just in case I realize That I still need you And she said I don’t think I can talk to you I don’t think I’m getting through Your thick head And I know I can’t talk to you I don’t think I’d ever do The things she said She said now And I don’t think I can talk to you I don’t think I’m getting through Your thick head And I don’t think I can talk to you I don’t think I’d ever do The things she said She said now (I don’t think that I can talk to) (You that’s what she said) Ohhhhh And I don’t think I can talk to you I don’t think I’m getting through Your thick head (I don’t think that I can talk to) (You that’s what she said) And I don’t think I can talk to you I don’t think I’d ever do The things she said (I don’t think that I can talk to) (You that’s what she said) She said now Ohhhhh

I’ve got no inspiration I’m seeking confrontation Something to make me feel alive I thought I got over you But I’m having deja vu Thoughts of you still in my mind Well I don’t need to know That you found somebody new I just need to know that you’re miserable Without me And I don’t need to hear That he’s wonderful and you’re “so grateful” I need you to know That I let you go for a reason I sure write a lot about you For someone that I don’t care about Well maybe next time I’ll forget you I wish that you would disappear Take this song as a souvenir Remember that you were the one Who still counted Well I don’t need to know That you found somebody new I just need to know that you’re miserable Without me And I don’t need to hear That he’s wonderful and you’re “so grateful” I need you to know That I let you go for a reason Well I need you to know That I let you go for a reason I sure write a lot about you For someone that I don’t care about Well maybe next time I’ll forget you I wish that you would disappear And take this song as a souvenir Remember that you were the one Who still counted Well I don’t need to know That you found somebody new I just need to know that you’re miserable Without me And I don’t need to hear That he’s wonderful and you’re “so grateful” I need you to know That I let you go for a reason Well I don’t need to know That you found somebody new I just need to know that you’re miserable Without me And I don’t need to hear That he’s wonderful and you’re “so grateful” I need you to know That I let you go for a reason *See I’ve been waiting all day For you to call me “baby” So let’s get up, let’s get on it Don’t you leave me broken hearted Tonight Well come on baby I’ll do Anything you want to So can’t we finish what we started Don’t you leave me broken hearted Tonight Well I need you to know That I let you go for a reason Well I need you to know That I let you go for a reason

Hell 03:01
Way down beneath the surface where the monsters hide The women are all grizzly and the men unkind There’s a devil on my shoulder, won’t let me forget The image of you burns me like a cigarette Way down in hell Wish I could yell Yell about the way I hate you But instead in imitate you Way down in hell Way down beneath the surface where the monsters hide The women are all grizzly and the men unkind There’s a devil on my shoulder, won’t let me forget The image of you burns me like a cigarette Way down in hell Wish I could yell Yell about the way I hate you But instead in imitate you Way down in hell Way down in hell Wish I could yell Yell about the way I hate you But instead in imitate you Way down in hell

Blue Bomber 02:25
He’d throw a boulder just to keep me from getting to you And when that didn't work that stupid jerk came up with something new He threw some blades and chucked grenades But I’d evade to his dismay Just one more shot, I’m not afraid I’m one step closer now Blue Bomber go! 3 down now, 3 more to go The next thing that he’ll try is snow But I learned some tricks A sliding wall kick That got me past his electric Attack is no match That’s when I attach My best fire safety dispatch To put out his flame 6 bots out of the way I’ll get you Dr. Wily Your death is highly likely Do what you gotta do to Try to save yourself Robots, machines, and weapons Won’t stop me for a second I had a bone to pick with you And now it’s through Blue Bomber go! I’ll get you Dr. Wily Your death is highly likely Do what you gotta do to Try to save yourself Robots, machines, and weapons Won’t stop me for a second I had a bone to pick with you And now it’s through Blue Bomber go! Blue Bomber go Blue Bomber go Blue Bomber go Blue Bomber go

Cut your hair, get a real job Don’t you wanna be happy like everybody else? You won’t get nowhere strummin’ that guitar All your friends grew up, they’re doin’ well so far Well you gotta get over this “punk rock” thing It died a while ago, nobody wants to hear you sing Sedate yourself, relate yourself to a suit and tie Enslave yourself to the American dream You do what you want 2 days a week The other 5 are a 5 day losing streak Don’t need to know why your choices make you Better than me Do what you must for that promotion No one can match your devotion Your boss must be so proud of you Why? He’s got another hundred who would just as soon comply 25 years old, seems you’ve lost control You put your heart and soul into your rock and roll for too long You’re too immature, when you grow up you’ll change Chasin’ dreams isn’t meant for people your age You do what you want 2 days a week The other 5 are a 5 day losing streak Don’t need to know why your choices make you Better than me Do what you must for that promotion No one can match your devotion Your boss must be so proud of you Why? He’s got another hundred who would just as soon comply

Masochist 03:39
Well I’m in trouble again I don’t think I deserve this If I could I’d undo it all At least that’s what I tell myself The truth may be different I punched another hole through the drywall Well it seems I enjoy this Sickening process Don’t feel bad for me ‘cause I do it to myself I’m a masochist Well you’re in for it now, but you might deserve it Can’t you see that I’m bad news? Well it appears to me That you’re as desperate as I am We walked 10 miles in each other’s shoes Well it seems we enjoy this Heartbreaking process You seem like a sadist And babe I’m a masochist I’m a masochist I’m a masochist And I wish I could say that I didn’t mean The things that I said last night Wish I could blame it on the handle of SoCo I won’t be alright (I’ll pretend) not to want it You’ll still persist The bad news is babe you’ve fallen for For a masochist Maybe we’re far enough in it and it’s time to give in Oh there are other ways I wish it could be Because I know that we’re doomed, this can only end badly Should’ve run at the first sight of me Well I really don't know how There’s no turning back now It’s a matter of time before it all comes crashing down Comes crashing down Comes crashing down And I wish I could say that I didn’t mean The things that I said last night Wish I could blame it on the handle of SoCo I won’t be alright (I’ll pretend) not to want it You’ll still persist The bad news is babe you’ve fallen for For… (I’m a masochist) And I wish I could say that I didn’t mean The things that I said last night Wish I could blame it on the handle of SoCo I won’t be alright (I’ll pretend) not to want it You’ll still persist The bad news is babe you’ve fallen for For… For a masochist

Well I’ve been chewed up And spit up on the ground Left here for dead On the outskirts of town I never asked you for anything And that’s exactly what I got from you I meant everything that I never got to say to you Well don’t waste my time “Don’t waste my time” she said I got your pictures Still hangin on my wall I’d take ‘em down If they bothered me at all You wanted this to mean something And it did, I swear it did One day you’ll hear me sing This song and remember when I wasn’t just a waste of time You were the waste of time I said now I know that you know I’m at my best When I’m wasted, passed out on the floor That’s when I remember how to forget That I want things to be the way they were before But we can’t go back and fix what went wrong So instead I’ll move on And pretend that this song is not About you I got a problem with the way you left me I’m on the run but they won’t catch me I’m breakin hearts almost the same way you broke mine I haven’t gotten over it since you left me I’m on the run and they won’t catch me Said that I’d be fine without you But you lied I got a problem with the way you left me I’m on the run and soon they’ll catch me I’m breakin hearts almost the same way you broke mine I haven’t gotten over it since you left me I’m on the run and soon they’ll catch me Said that I’d be fine without you But you lied And it was just a waste of time Don’t waste my fuckin’ time and I know that you know I’m at my best When I’m wasted, passed out on the floor That’s when I remember how to forget That I want things to be the way they were before But we can’t go back and fix what went wrong So instead I’ll move on And pretend that this song is not About you About you About you About you

Get Me Away 03:39
Haven’t you done enough? Go back where you came from You’ll need to find another place to stay Your shirt covered in blood You push the ones you love away Get me away Get me away I’ve had a bit too much of you Get me away Get me away Give me the blame Give me the blame You clearly aren’t responsible Give me the blame Give me the blame You say I’ve given up You throw me under the bus Well you forgot what happened yesterday Your shirt covered in blood You push the ones you love away Get me away Get me away I’ve had a bit too much of you Get me away Get me away Give me the blame Give me the blame You clearly aren’t responsible Give me the blame Give me the blame Give me the blame Give me the blame You clearly aren’t responsible Give me the blame Give me the blame Haven’t you done enough? Go back where you came from You’ll need to find another place to stay Your shirt covered in blood You push the ones you love away Get me away Get me away I’ve had a bit too much of you Get me away Get me away Give me the blame Give me the blame You clearly aren’t responsible Give me the blame Give me the blame

You knock down the door to my bedroom It doesn’t have to be this way I Swear word breath becomes the perfume I can’t remember that you’d Where did you hid the girl I used to know? The one who had a spine Seems she’s gone away But I’m not worried No, I’ll be fine You’re a sucker for a sob story But you don’t wanna face your problems You run away and hope they’ll solve themselves When they don’t you should know that I won’t be the one That you can run to You’ll have to pick your own shit off the floor I got my own life to live I’ve run out of fucks to give about you No I don’t like you No I don’t like you What ever happened to subtlety? It seems the only person who misses it is me Things look different from far away They tell me to feel better but I still feel the same I still feel the same I still feel the same You knock down the door to my bedroom It doesn’t have to be this way I Swear word breath becomes the perfume I can’t remember that you’d wear You’re a sucker for a sob story But you don’t wanna face your problems You run away and hope they’ll solve themselves I got my own life to live I’ve run out of fucks to give about you No I don’t like you No I don’t like you What ever happened to subtlety? It seems the only person who misses it is me Things look different from far away They tell me to feel better but I still feel the same I still feel the same I still feel the same What ever happened to subtlety? It seems the only person who misses it is me Things look different from far away They tell me to feel better but I still feel the same I still feel the same I still feel the same
