Sean's Happy Birthday Song
------------------

When will you see what you're doing to me?
There's somethin in me and it wont speak freely
I'm sitting here
would ya look at me?
I'm lacking all the attention I need

Everything around me
is going twenty thousand miles an hour

One day I will find
Some place to go-I know
some place where I'll be free
to be what I will be
I'll keep an open mind
when I face reality
first, when will you see
what you're do-oin to me?

Does everything I say to you go in one ear and out the other?

Why can't you see it's important to me

I just wanna speak but you wont let me
And it seems to tear me up everytime
when will you let your eyes realize..

(that) There's somethin in me
and it wont speak freely
it's tryin to tell me
where I should be goin

one day I will decide
which way to go-oh-oh
one day I'll speak my mind

one day I will be heard
(2 x's)

Ex-Boyfriend
-------------
Laying on my couch on a friday night
just watching, watching my TV set
well I just can't understand
why I put it to an end
but I still get it on with my Ex-boyfriend

He held me in his arms
and looked into my eyes
n said "Mandie, why'd it have to end?"
well I said "It never did!"
So I led him to my bed
and I still get it on with my ex-boyfriend

I still get it on
I still get it on
I still get it on with my ex-boyfriend
People don't be mad
it's really not so bad
There's nothing wrong with friendly benefits
Can't you just be glad
we decided to stay friends?
Though, I still get it on with my ex-boyfriend

Can't Breathe
-------------
I need a place to run and hide
Someplace where I wont fear or panic
I need some help in you I confide
a way for me to escape this havok

I'm probably well past insane
the world is crashing down on my head
nothing's going my way
every road leads me to a dead end

--Chorus1--
Help me Please
I can't breathe
I'll scream and shout
help me out
---------
I look across the crowd catching your eyes
questioning "can I make a connection?"
So overwhelmed can you hear my cries?
as for insanity? there's no prevention

---Chorus 2---
Help me please
I can't breathe
I'll find a way
to escape this place
-------------
To think I could do it all alone
I was wrong
so wrong
to think I could rise up and be great
I was wrong
and I fall

Andrea
-------
What will happen when you're gone?
I'm gonna be all alone
I'll close my eyes and think of you
I'd give the world for you

The way I felt that night
The stars were shining bright
and all the times we had laughed and cried
are running through my mind
I know you don't want me
I've heard it all before
I know you don't need me
I can't believe it's over

I see your face inside my mind
but you couldn't understand
I tried so hard to be good to you
but you never seemed to care
I'm falling
I'm falling apart
I'm falling
I'm falling apart

Far Away
-----------
Sitting here
in this quiet room
closed are my eyes tuning into my mind
only thinking of you
I never got the chance to tell you how I feel
but now it's too late somehow you have escaped
from my perfect little world

Far Away
you're so far away from me
along with the memory of yesterday
Far Away
but only an hour's wait
allow me to demonstrate the way I feel

If there were a way
I could make you stay
I'd hold you so close and not let you go
I wont let you fall
it's all my fault
I let you fall
and now you wont come back you're the one thing that I lack
cuz I let you fall

So now I'm alone
and you're not by my side
not having you near, meaning you wont be here
holding me close tonight
I only wish that I could have you here tonight
I've something to know, tell me why did you go?
Wait, it's all my fault!
It's all my fault!

If there were a way
I could make you stay
I'd hold you so close and not let you go
I wont let you fall
it's all my fault
I let you fall
and you wont come back, you're the one thing I lack
cuz I let you fall!
I let you FAAAAAAAALL
let you fall
and it's all my fault...

Sparks
-------
I don't mean to intrude
I don't mean to rain on your parade
maybe it's time I've left you alone
maybe it's time you learn from mistakes you've made
and now I see you all alone
standing there on your own
you swear to me there's nothing wrong
you used to be so strong
you ran away from your flaws and insecurities
but most of all
you ran away for me

So tell me what, what's wrong with you
Tell me now, what can I do?
Stay with me and I'll help you through
Just tell me what it is that's wrong with you

I don't want to assume
I don't want you to be taken granted for
Maybe it's time you take a look around
Maybe it's time you learn life holds so much more
So why you couldn't come to me
Makes me think past what I can see
You think you're hold world is fading to a lie
I can't stand to watch you slowly die
But you were scared
and now that I can clearly see
you never meant to run away from me

Grasshopper (Point of View)
--------------------------
I took a walk in your shoes
I looked from your point of view
it's such an interesting change
it feels so wierd and it feels so strange

Can I just let you know
I like the way you live your life
and everything is so clear
looking out through your eyes

When I looked in the mirror
and I saw your face so clear
I'll just take up the space
and let you fill in the blanks

So now in this state of mind
you'd think it all were a crime
this perspective makes sense to me
through these eyes I can finally see

When I looked in the mirror
and I saw your face so clear
but truly this face I see
is only mine looking back at me

So this is my point of view...

Hold your Hand
---------------
I'm in love with someone I can't have
and it's driving me crazy
if I could only read his mind
then maybe I could find a way
into his heart

I've done all I can for you to notice me
Even wrote this song for you
All my attempts have failed me
so what else can I do?

---Chorus---
What am I to do
when I cannot be with you?
It's driving me insane!
I'll show you who I am
and maybe I can hold your hand
Hold your hand
------------
Why I go chasing infinity
I guess I'm a bit rapacious
You're such a waste of my creativity
Why must you be so spacious?

((Chorusx2))
