-----------------------------------------------------------------
1.Tension
I used to be the guy who wanted all of the attention,
Now I think it's something that I just shouldn't mention.
But, that's not what I had in mind,
Didn't think you'd come from behind and win.
You say that was a long time ago and that you've matured,
But now everyone knows that, that's not insured.
Now I think it's something that I should mention,
Cuz now your the one whose getting all of the attention.
How's the tension now?
How's the tension?
The tensions pouring down.
I used to be the guy who wanted all of the attention,
Now I think it's something that I just shouldn't mention.
How's the tension now?
How's the tension?
The tensions pouring down.
How's the tension now?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
2.Nothing
What you can't see you can't beleive.
Do what ever you want to.
Blind to the eye what you can't recieve,
is what you don't want to.
Your lying to me what you can't concive,
Try to do what you can't do.
If there's anything that I haven't seen,
It's what I don't want to.
And one thing I've learned is....
Nothing can stay the same.
Picture out side the frame.
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing can stay the same.
Everything changes fast.
You'll never see it pass.
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing can stay the same.
What are you hidding from me?
The guit is upon you.
What you don't want, you don't see.
But it's what you otta do.
If you let me in you know what I'd say.
Just who are you?
If you'd turn around maybe you'd see,
that I really want you.
And one thing I've learned is....
Nothing can stay the same.
Picture out side the frame.
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing can stay the same.
Everything changes fast.
You'll never see it pass.
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing can stay the same.
And one thing I've learned is....
Nothing can stay the same.
Picture out side the frame.
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing can stay the same.
Everything changes fast.
You'll never see it pass.
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing can stay the same.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
3.Transparency
I feel as if your walking through the walls,
Feel as if your kicking me in the balls.
Like you transparent, seems like I'm
Wanting second chances for the third time.
I'm not seein' you but your seein' me,
But sometimes the best things are the ones that you can't see.
And if I could see what I wanted to,
Than the only thing I'd see would be me and you.
Lettin' the light pass through.
Easily understood.
That's what I don' understand.
How could you be so rude.
And I don't know why
I don't understand.
I let the light pass through,
and flow into your hand.
And you got me goin' into one wild stare,
Are you still here? Cuz I thought I saw you wavin' your hair.
Now all these visions seem to be gone,
They're lost in the sun, fading into dawn.
And, I couldn't wait for you,
You didn't wait for me.
And, what goes around comes around,
You see. You see.
Feel like I know you now and same with you.
I know how to work it out between both us two.
Lettin' the light pass through.
Easily understood.
That's what I don' understand.
How could you be so rude.
And I don't know why
I don't understand.
I let the light pass through,
and flow into your hand.
I think it's time you make up you mind,
I'll give you one hell of a time.
And if I could see what I wanted to see,
You'd lose your transparency.
Transparency. It's transparency.
I walk through the halls, you won't look at me.
Now I think, that it's over,
Cuz third time's a charm with a 4 leaf clover.
Never Again.
Never Again.

You gotta get the tab for this.
4.Typical You
Hit me straight,
With the truth.
I worked up my courage,
I'm still just a youth.
Meant to be hurt,
Meant to be misled.
The words that will hurt me,
The words that you said.
I walk up you think I'm pathetic,
I looked down and then you said it.
"No! No! No! No! No!" Typical You.
"No! No! No! No! No!" Typical You.
Your words rang through my ears.
Your words ran through my tears.
My tears ran throgh my mind.
But there was nothing for me find.
You! You! You! You! You! Typical You.
You! You! You! You! You! Typical You.
I lay there thinkin' in my bed.
Everyone's meant to be misled.
That's what I thought, I was wrong.
Another girl. Another song.
"No! No! No! No! No!" Typical You.
"No! No! No! No! No!" Typical You.
Hit me straight,
With the truth.
I worked up my courage,
I'm still just a youth.
Meant to be hurt,
Meant to be misled.
The words that will hurt me,
The words that you said.
Hit me straight,
With a lie.
I don't care,
I'll pass it by.
I just want what we had before.
That's all I need, nothing more.
Typical You.
Truley a great song. NOW GET THE GUITAR TAB!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
5.Avant
I'm on my own again,
the break-up singed my skin.
I think it's not too late,
but some good things can never wait.
I remember the first time I laid my eys on you.
Love at frst site, was a false becoming true.
And that was the mistake you don't know what to expect.
It was something I'd take, and something that we'd regret.
The looks that we'd exchanged, made me feel confident.
Didn't think I'd be changed, saw nothing wrong with it.
But I was you and dumb, takin' my toll at love.
I could've just turned and run,
I wanted to see what I was made of.
I wish I could tell you,
but I'm still afraid.
These are the years,
that memories are made.
All of the times,
I had something to gain.
But now there's nothing left,
to wash out the stain.
Never thought it'd com to this,
never expeienced it before.
Cupids arrow didn't miss,
but it bounced to the floor.
My luck kept hurting me,
it was now broken in.
Now based on consistancy,
love is broken into sin.
Sometimes the best things,
turn into lies.
And you we had before,
flashes past our eyes.
I wish I could tell you,
but I'm still afraid.
These are the years,
that memories are made.
All of the times,
I had something to gain.
But now there's nothing left,
to wash out the stain.
I'm on my own again,
the break-up singed my skin.
I think it's not too late,
but some good things can never wait.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
6.Again
I don't know where I am now.
I don't know who you are now.
I don't know why you've changed so.
I don't know, I don't know anymore.
I'm finding solutions, to break up my problems.
I'm seeing illusions, and I'll never solve them.
You keep on changing, the sky keeps on raining.
But every thing stays the same again.
I don't know where I am now.
I don't know who you are now.
I don't know why you've changed so.
I don't know, I don't know anymore.
I don't know where I am now.
I don't know who you are now.
I don't know why you've changed so.
I don't know, I don't know anymore.
I find myself finding solutions again.
My problems are broken with solutions again.
You keep on changing.
The sky keeps on raining.
But every thing stays the same again, and again, and again, and again.
I don't know where I am now.
I don't know who you are now.
I don't know why you've changed so.
I don't know, I don't know anymore.
I don't know anymore.....

8.1/7/3
Today doesn't last forever,
took me long enough.
So much was upon you,
the journey was bound to be rough.
The seventh day of the first month,
the year 2003.
The day I didn't want to come,
the day that would shock me.
I want you back.
I want you back.
You meant everything to me.
I want you back.
I want you back.
I'd do anything.
Tomorrow doesn't last either,
I look past the light above.
The light keeps shining brighter,
the light represents your love.
I light a match in the dark,
the light flows through the room.
Then I put the match out,
but the light still resumes.
I want you back.
I want you back.
You meant everything to me.
I want you back.
I want you back.
I'd do anything.
Yesterday already passed us,
we look at the good times we had.
We thought that it would last us,
but some good things go bad.
If I had just one more day,
I'd spend it with you.
I wish you were still with us.
Now I realize you are to.
I want you back.
I want you back.
You meant everything to me.
I want you back.
I want you back.
I'd do anything.
I want you back.
I want you back.
You meant everything to me.
I want you back.
I want you back.
I'd do anything.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
8.Dark
You're lost in the dark.
Full of empty heart.
Let the emptiness drive you to the end of the road.
The engine has died, your passion will fold.
Your killing me.
But, it's all beyond.
We're still working on this song so it's not all the way done.
But it's gonna be a real dark song.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
9.Off Road
You think that I'm alone,
but everyone's standin' by my side.
You sai'd that you'd been shown,
but I'll take you for the ride.
I know which way you'r headin' in,
it turns out to be opposite.
I know just where you have been,
I know just what you did.
You'd better turn around,
cuz your headin in the wrong direction.
What you did was profound,
but you just call it pefection.
It'll keep goin' til' I make it stop,
If I can Just put up with you, it'll be alright.
I feel like I'm hitting the blacktop,
If you think you bug me than you're right.
Think you don't know where you're going,
maybe you've been thrown off track.
Whatever it is it's still showing,
whatever it is you can have it back.
Now it's time to explain what happened,
feel it's starting to decrease.
Things keep changing so rapid,
I feel the straightness turning to a crease.
