Just tell me what you've got to say to me, I've been waiting for so long to hear the truth, It comes as no surprise at all you see, So cut the crap and tell me that we're through. Now I know your heart, I know your mind, You don't even know you're being unkind, So much for all your high brow Marxist ways, Just use me up and then you walk away. Boy, you can't play me that way. Well I guess what you say is true, And I'll never be the right kind of girl for you, I could never be your woman. I could never be your woman, I could never be your woman, I could never be your woman. When I saw my best friend yesterday, She said she never liked you from the start, Well me, I wish that I could claim the same, But you always knew you held my heart. And you're such a charming, handsome man, Now I think I finally understand, Is it in your genes, I don't know, But I'll soon find out, that's for sure, Why did you play me this way? Well I guess what you say is true, I could never be the right kind of girl for you, I could never be your woman. I could never be your woman, I could never be your woman, I could never be your woman. Well I guess what they say is true, I could never spend my life with a man like you. I could never be your woman. I could never be your woman, I could never be your woman, I could never be your woman.

Bobby's Dad 02:35
Every time I stop and take a look around Everything’s just moving too fast When nothing I do seems to make any difference Wanna know why I bother When I look in your eyes doesn’t matter that I’m lonely When I see your face all my failures fall away I’m just driving you to school but you think I’m so cool Just a little boy’s father When I’m Bobby’s Dad I’m a freakin’ superhero I’m the man with a plan I can make you fly I’m Bobby’s Dad I know why I am here So I can see you when you smile You’re a crazy kid but I love you anyway Even when you kick your brother’s knee And I don’t understand half of what you gotta say But I love it when you say it Every picture you draw is a little masterpiece and when you Sing off-key it’s like Handel in my ears If you wanna play a game, doesn’t matter how lame Kid you know I’m gonna play it When I’m Bobby’s Dad I’m a freakin’ superhero I’m the man with a plan I can make you fly I’m Bobby’s Dad I know why I am here So I can see you when you smile There’s a part of my heart That lives for being with you And I know that I sometimes Let you down But I’ve come so far And I never wanna miss you Gonna hold you while you’re Still around So there~ I know that one day you’ll be grown and gone away I know you’re gonna make me proud I know every time you say that you wish I’d go away It’s already forgiven You’re a beautiful boy and you helped make me a man And when you be a man too I’mma help you find the way Your name may be plain, but goddammit you’re a Cain And we’re never gonna give in When I’m Bobby’s Dad I’m a freakin’ superhero I’m the man with a plan I can make you fly I’m Bobby’s Dad I know why I am here So I can see you when you smile

Shallow Song 04:55
I wrote some music today Nothing in the words A hollow tune to play Once upon a time they Swelled with life from a Heart that's become clay I wrote a sad song today Something in the sound Lacked feelings that would stay I wish that I could relay A little of how I feel But the feeling's gone away Hey~ Why's the music gone so flat Oooh, oooooh Hey~ Ohhh~ I tried to jot down a letter Thinkin' I'd feel better Once I got my thoughts up on the wall Isn't it funny how The one song I get running now Just whines about how I can't write at all Hey~ Why's the music gone so flat Oooh, oooooh Hey~ Ohhh~ Now there's something in the sound Like rain upon my soul And it burns me like some acid Leaves a hole I don't want the music to hurt me But I can't get away When the emptiness leaves a vacuum Light flees from the day There! In silence a scream! Probably just a hope But it sounds so real to me The straws I grasp for are brittle Even just a little Meaning warms me like the sun Every word drains me now Each song adds to this darkened cloud Each time I wonder if I'm finally done Hey~ Why's the music gone so flat Oooh, oooooh Hey~ Ohhh~

Haven't you heard Her ship sailed away She left without Saying goodbye No kiss of cheek Embrace nor even A wave of a scarf I gave to you A piece of my heart To hold until we Meet again That divided soul Though promised your return Can't feel its other Now it's just a broken heart I'm not okay But I'll soldier on I hope that someday I'll find you Wherever you've gone I hope it was worth it What you left behind Was worth it too Reaching inside To search for the words A lyric to bid you Farewell Torn up sheets Of musical notation Just garbage in your wake Was life so hard? Couldn't you tell me? What set your heart To sailing Did I at least Bring joy to your day A smile to your lips As you sailed away? I'm not okay But I'll soldier on I hope that someday I'll find you Wherever you've gone I hope it was worth it What you left behind Was worth it too Didn’t you know that you Were more than special You were the light in The dark of my life And I can’t help but think Can’t help but wonder If something I said Something I didn’t say Now I'm not okay But I'll soldier on I hope that someday I'll find you Wherever you've gone I hope it was worth it What you left behind Was worth it too
