Can't Go On


It cannot be easy to forget you when I think about you, all the time
I'll never know how I miss you when I never had you, nevermind
I'll move on, but can't go on without you
I said I'll try, don't know why...what to do without you
Can't go on, can't go on

It'd be cool if we never met, if we never locked eyes
So fine! its then I'd feel so happy not knowing you're so fine!
I'll move on, but can't go on without you
I said I'll try, don't know why...what to do without you
Can't go on, can't go on

I get so nervous when I'm around you, there's nothing I can say
I wish you'd get out of my head, I think about you every day
I'll move on, but can't go on without you
I said I'll try, don't know why...what to do without you
Can't go on, can't go on...without you

Rock

I'll move on, but can't go on without you
I said I'll try, don't know why...what to do without you
Can't go on, can't go on

Christmas By The Phone


Another year, Another tree
But this year you won't be with me
And it don't, feel much like Christmas
We used to watch the same old shows
Sing Social D on the radio
But it don't, feel much like Christmas
This used to be, my favourite holiday
My Christmas Eve was filled with dreams
But you chased them all away

Why did you leave me for Christmas?
You left me lonely its true,
Could you have waited till New Years?
At least the year would be through...

And now the misletoe's hanging
For no reason at all
And all the presents are still wrapped
But you don't even call

I took a walk to where we go
There were lights and there was snow
But it don't feel, much like christmas

And people ask me how you've been
I fake a smile and say ok,
But i don't feel, much like christmas

You used to be, my favourite holiday
But now you're gone, i'm all alone
And all that I can say

Why did you leave me for Christmas?
You left me lonley its true,
Could you have waited till New Years?
At least the year would be through...

And now the misletoe's hanging
For no reason at all
And all the presents are still wrapped
But you don't even call

Waiting here alone
Christmas by the phone
Waiting here alone
Spending Christmas by the phone...

The Click


(From the TV show "The Undergrads")

Just because I walk
Like Obi-Wan Kenobi
You people talk
But you don't even know me
And that's all right
'Cause I get down with GC
So I walk on and
Listen to their CD
Some people laugh
They do it just to spite me
Behind my back
They don't know what I see
But I don't care what they say
I don't need them anyway
I'll just go about my day
But anyway

You go out on Friday night
I'll stay in but that's all right
'Cause I have found a clique
To call my own in-crowd
Out-crowd
I don't care your crowd
My crowd
We can't share
'Cause I have found
A clique to call my own
(Let's go)

So come and talk to me
On my computer screen
The best years of our lives
Aren't as easy as they seem
But when they will look back
And then we'll have to laugh
They used to call us names
Now they want our autographs
To get the girl and make the grade
It's all a show
It's all a game
And I would lose it if I played
It's all the same

So I don't care what they say
I don't need them anyway
I'll just go about my day
But anyway

You go out on Friday night
I'll stay in but that's all right
'Cause I have found a clique
To call my own in-crowd
Out-crowd
I don't care your crowd
My crowd
We can't share
'Cause I have found a
Clique to call my own

She says she'd call
But I know she won't
(She won't)
(She won't)

You go out on Friday night
I'll stay in but that's all right
'Cause I have found a clique
To call my own in-crowd
Out-crowd
I don't care your crowd
My crowd
We can't share
'Cause I have found a
Clique to call my own

I don't care what you say
I don't need you anyway
I'll just go about my day
But anyway

I don't care what you say
I don't need you anyway
I'll just go about my day
But anyway

Footloose


I been working so hard
I punch my card
Eight hours, for what?
Now tell me what I got

I get this feeling
That time's just holding me down
I'll hit the ceiling
Or else I'll tear up this town

Now I gotta cut

Loose, footloose
Kick off my Sunday shoes
Please, Louise
Pull me offa my knees
Jack, get back
C'mon before we crack
Lose your blues
Come on and get footloose

You're playing so cool
Obeying every rule
Dig way down in your heart
You're burning, yearning for some

Somebody to tell you
That life ain't passing you by
I'm trying to tell you
It will if you don't even try

Now you gotta cut

Loose, footloose
Kick off the Sunday shoes
Oowhee, Marie
Shake it, shake it for me
Whoa, my lord
C'mon, c'mon let's go
Lose your blues
Everybody get footloose

You've got to turn me around
You put your feet on the ground
Now take a hold of your soul
I'm turning

Loose, footloose
Kick off your Sunday shoes
Please, Louise
Pull me offa my knees
Jack, get back
C'mon before we crack
Lose your blues
Come on and get footloose

Footloose, footloose
Kick off your Sunday shoes
Oowhee, Marie
Shake it, shake it for me
Whoa, My lord
C'mon, c'mon let's go
Lose your blues
Everybody get footloose

Hey Dad


Hey Dad, where you been for so long?
Why won't you look at me?
Is there something wrong?

Do you remember me, the son that you conceived?
Why won't you look at me?
A son that you deceived

Oh God, what did I do to deserve this?
A man I never knew
A man I cannot miss

I gave you many chances, many that you took
And now I stand before you
You won't even look

How can we start all over when we never began?
How can you be a father
When you're not even a man?

Why do you play these games?
That are in my head
You said you'd love me dearly
But it looks like he's dead

Oh God, what did I do to deserve this?
A man I never knew
A man I cannot miss

How can we start all over when we never began?
How can you be a father
When you're not even a man?

Why do you play these games?
That are in my head
You said you'd love me dearly
But it looks like he's dead (hey dad, hey dad)

So then came kids of my own
I was there for them
I am the man you couldn't be (I didn't learn from him)

Where he is, I don't know at all
I don't even remember
The last time he called

How can we start all over when we never began?
How can you be a father
When you're not even a man?

Why do you play these games?
That are in my head
You said you'd love me dearly
But it looks like he's dead

Oh God, what did I do to deserve this?
A man I never knew
A man I cannot miss

How can we start all over?
How can we start all over?
How can we start all over?
How can we start all over?

I Want Candy


(From "Not Another Teen Movie" soundtrack)

I know a girl who's tough but sweet
She's so fine she can't be beat
She's got everything that I desire
She sets the summer sun on fire

I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy

Go to see her when the sun goes down
There ain't no finer girl in town
You're my girl, what the doctor ordered
A drinka so sweet, you make my mouth water

I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy

Candy on the beach there's nothing better
But I like candy when it's wrapped in leather
And someday soon I'll make you mine
And then I'll have candy all the time

I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy

Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!

I'm Down


Ooohhhhh
Ooohhhhh

I can't hear you anymore
I won't let you in, I'll ignore
The things you say, they really bring me down
I've found my happy place is on the ground

Misunderstood out in the cold
I am so young but I feel old
The things you say, they really bring me down
I've found my happy place is on the ground

I am down
I am down
I am down
I am down

No sound is found when you come around
No sound is found when you come around
No sound is found when you come around
No sound is found when you come around

I am down

No sound is found when you come around
No sound is found when you come around
No sound is found when you come around
No sound is found when you come around

I am down

The Innocent


Goldfinger, Mest, and Good Charlotte
Written by John Feldmann, Benji & Joel
Dedicated to the victims of the Sept. 11th terrorist attack
---------------------------------------------------------

The start of Armageddon
And it's just another day
We all saw the news
Nothing to say
So many friends are missing
And family members gone
And we all pray to God
Help them be strong
And now we stand together
Remembering that day
The lives we live
Will never be the same

And we don't know why
The innocent die
Will this world ever
Find a way to change?
And we don't know why
But we know it's not right
We don't know why
So many had to die
We don't know why
So many had to die

Hate has turned to others
For their religion or their skin
But hate can't solve
The problem it began
Everyone is angry
People are afraid
And no one knows
What decisions will be made

And we don't know why
The innocent die
Will this world ever
Find a way to change?
And we don't know why
But we know it's not right
We don't know why
So many had to die
We don't know why
So many had to die

We don't know why (Don't know why)
The innocent die (Don't know why)
Will this world ever
Find a way to change?
And we don't know why (Don't know why)
But we know it's not right (Don't know why)
Will any of us
Ever be the same?
Will any of this
Ever be the same?

I don't know why
The innocent die
Will any of us
Ever be the same?
Will any of this
Ever be the same?

If You Leave


(From "Not Another Teen Movie" soundtrack)

If you leave, don't leave now
Please don't take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our separate ways
We always had time on our sides
Now it's fading fast
Every second every moment
We've got to--we've gotta make it last

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday

If you leave I won't cry
I won't waste a single day
But if you leave no don't look back
I'll be running the other way
Seven years went under the bridge
Time was standing still
Heaven knows what happens now
You've got to--you've gotta say you will

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday
Someday

Oh If you leave
Oh if you leave
If you leave

I Heard You


Today I screwed up again
You said I could tell in the way you said goodbye
I saw you sitting at your t-shirt stand with your new boyfriend
He's really cool (I get the point)
I told you, I heard you (I don't want you)
Today I screwed up again
You said I could tell in the way you said goodbye
I saw you sitting at your t-shirt stand with all your cool friends
They're really cool (I get the point)
I told you, I heard you (I don't want you)
Today I screwed up again
You said, yeah I heard in your head
I'm feeling like I'm not fitting in
I know that I'm not fitting in with you
And your friends (I get the point)
I told you, I heard you (I don't want you)

The Love


You think you're cool
You're in a band
Couldn't get a girl
Now you're in demand

Did you put them down?
Did you leave them out?
Now when we play
You scream & shout

Could he write a song like this?
I'm the one you're gonna miss

The love I saw, you couldn't see
I always knew we'd never be
Could you love me now?
I can't love you now

Overcome


(Featuring Jepetto)

I was raised to believe what I see
So I pray to God
Give me strength, help me breathe
When they suck life from me
Something's wrong

Anything wrong with me
I don't see
Anything wrong with me
So I write and I pray
And I live day to day
And I wait for the Son
And I love everyone
Still they find something wrong

Anything wrong with me
I don't see
Anything wrong with me

You can't hide what's inside...
You can't hide what's inside when you die...
You can’t hide what's inside/when you die/you will die...

Break me
Break me down

You can't hide what's inside when you die...
You will die...

Put Your Head On My Shoulder


(From "Not Another Teen Movie" soundtrack)

Put your head on my shoulder
Hold me in yours arms, baby
Squeeze me oh so tight and show me
That you love me too

Put your lips next to mine dear,
Won't you kiss once oh baby,
Just a kiss goodnight and maybe
You and I will fall in love

People say
That love is a game
A game, you just can't win
If there's a way I'll find it someday
And then this fool will rush in

Put your head on my shoulder
Whisper in my ear baby
Words I wanna hear, tell me
Tell me that you love me too

Put your head on my shoulder
Whisper in my ear baby
Words I wanna hear baby
Put your head on my shoulder

Story Of My Life


(Live at CBGB)

This is about all of us, this is our song. Me and you.

Talk to me, and tell me
About you, and I'll try
To understand the things you've done, and the things you've been through yeah.
These are words I've never heard
From anyone but now I've sung
But that's ok 'cause I've learned that I like to be alone.

I tried to warn you.
I tried to say that I'd walk away.
I tried to tell you.
But no one listens to me anyway.

Where do you go now,
When you're seventeen years old?
You've got no one,
You've got nothing,
You've got nowhere to belong?

That's right, that's me.
Always guilty.
I'm trying to fit in
Where I just don't get in but
That's ok 'cause we're the same.
We've done ok, we've got no name.
And that's alright 'cause we've learned
This is our song.

I tried to warn you.
I tried to say that I'd walk away.
I tried to tell you.
But no one listens to me anyway.

Where do you go now,
When you're seventeen years old?
You've got no one,
You've got nothing,
You've got nowhere to belong?

Where do I go now,
Now I'm twenty-one years old?
Still got no one,
Still got nothing,
Still got nowhere to belong?

Some hard days, some hard nights,
Twenty-one years still nothing's right.
Some hard days, some hard nights,
Twenty-one years still nothing's right.
Nothing's right, nothing's right.

Where do I go?
This is the story of my life.
Where do I go?
This is the story of my life.
Where do I go?
This is the story of my life.
Where do I go?
This is the story of my life.

Time After Time


She makes me laugh... she'll make me cry
And when we talk, she wonders why
That I can't breathe into this life
With the things she says I want to die

All the things we talk about
You know they stay on my mind
On my mind
All the things we laugh about
They'll bring us through it every time
After time after time
Cause you're all I wanted to find
Go...

And I would drive the whole night through
Just so I could spend it with you
I know you're mine
And I hope it's true that when we fight, we will make it through

All the things we talk about
You know they stay on my mind
On my mind
All the things we laugh about
They'll bring us through it every time
After time after time

Cause you're all I wanted to find

I'm falling... down

Cause you're all I wanted to find
