Verse:
Everyday
she always plays me like sheís just another girl,
Lost
in the world.
Holdiní
back my own erratic, too emphatic sense for rules.
And
every night, and out of spite she always ends up lookiní clean.
What does it mean?
Prechorus:
And
if you have the chance to see her cominí,
Know
youíre in for something else.
And
if you wake in time to see her leaviní,
Donít
be shocked, because
Chorus:
She
roams everyday,
And
she never turns away.
But
the time we shared always made it all ok,
Cause
she drinky everyday for free.
Verse
2:
Sheís
a lover,
Sheís
a cheater.
Sheís
everything I want and more,
Knockiní
late at night on my bedroom door.
I
try and tell myself Iím more than just another of her boys,
Like itís my choice.
(Prechorus)
(Chorus)
(Guitar/keyboard
breakdown & guitar solo)
(Chorus x 2)
She
drinky everyday for,
She
drinky everyday for,
She drinky everyday for free.
It
seems so long ago when I was little and I was confused,
Trapped
down, not aware of pain, I never knew I could abuse.
But
when the time did come, you seemed to muster up a little roar,
Before
I could say your name you were off and strutiní through that door.
Prechorus:
Is
this a dream that Iím haviní right now?
Cause
Iíve thought it over and over and how?
Donít
believe everything that youíve heard.
And
donít you know that youíre being cruel and so darn absurd.
Chorus:
It
never took too long for me to prove
about
that hidden monster in you.
Verse
2:
Whoíd
ever thunk I could be bad through any eyes but my own.
Yeah,
you were quick to see a side of me thatís never been shown.
And
when the time did come you seemed to muster up quite a mess.
Whoíd
ever dreamed it be such a crime to have seen you undressed.
(Prechorus)
(Chorus)
Bridge:
And
if you see me, see me as I am now,
A
little confused and stressed about how I spilled your dreams and fantasies.
If
you see me before I see you,
Understand
I never meant to be cruel about the way,
I
always stayed,
right
in your way,
well,
everyday.
(Keyboard
solo)
(Prechorus)
Final
Chorus:
It
never took too long for me to prove,
About
that hidden monster in you.
You
said,
ìIt
never took too long for me to prove
about
that hidden monster inside of youî.
I
had nothiní to lose,
You
were too astute.
You
said,
ìIt
never took to long for me to prove,
about
that hidden monster inside of youî.
Verse:
The
day you met me is the day you had no regrets,
The
day you met me is the day you had no defense.
And
now you know me, but Iíll never leave you alone,
And
now youíll know me cause Iíll be the one on the phone.
The
day you left me is the day you sealed your fate,
The
day you left me is the day my love turned to hate.
And
you donít know it, but girl you will soon find out,
And
when you do I bet youíre gonna go scream and shout.
Prechorus:
My
brain and my eyes are open wide.
My
love is one way like suicide.
Iíd
pretend not to care, but I donít lie.
You
know itís all just a state of mind.
Chorus
1:
You
call me stalker, but I call you lover.
I
try to love you but you run for cover.
I
know weíre meant to be, I see it clearly.
Oh,
why canít you see I love you dearly?
Verse
2:
Some
things are just somewhat too good to be,
And
soon youíll find out that one of those things is me.
I
know you think that our love is now in the past,
But
you should know that this love will be your last.
Donít
be scared of what I have said to you,
But
rest assured girl, every word Iíve said is true.
You
can come back and all of this can finally end,
Or
I can make sure you never live to love again.
(Prechorus)
Chorus
2:
You
call me stalker, but I call you lover.
I
try to love you but you run for cover.
You
told me once that this would be forever.
I
tell you now, donít tell me never.
Bridge:
Just
call me lover.
You
run for cover.
Itíll
be forever.
Donít
tell me never.
(Keyboard
solo)
Final
Chorus:
You
call me stalker, but I call you lover.
I
try to love you but you run for cover.
You
told me once that this would be forever.
You
should know by now, donít tell me never.
You
call me stalker, but I call you lover.
Iím
telliní you that there will be no other.
I
know weíre meant to be, I see it clearly.
And if you disagree then you should fear me.
Verse:
She
runs around,
Cries
another sound,
Scanning
sadly through the crowd.
Sheís
going everyday,
Tires
to win her race.
Falls
back to a quick escape.
Sheís
so low
(Low,
how could you go so low? Youíre
solo. How could you go so low?)
Prechorus:
Every
night she goes and takes,
Laughing
loud at all the other mistakes.
No
one knows of what she has in store.
Things
now hurt, they never hurt before.
Verse
2:
Has
it made,
Baby
canít get laid.
No
one knows that sheís afraid.
She
goes and looks ahead, and begins to wretch.
Washes
clean like an etch-a-sketch.
Sheís
so low
(Low,
how could you go so low? Youíre
solo. How could you go so low?)
Prechorus
2:
Every
night, she goes and takes,
She
donít care for nobodyís mistakes.
No
one cares for what she has in store.
Things
now hurt, they never hurt before.
Chorus:
She
wakes up, and he is still asleep.
(She
was alone.)
She
makes up, so she can feel free.
(She
was alone)
She
Fakes it, all the way down.
(She
was alone)
She
kills me, she kills me.
She
was alone.
(Guitar
solo)
(Chorus)
Verse:
Why
do we always do these unsuccessful new beginnings,
As
if this time Iíll turn out right?
If
ignorance is bliss then I guess we have no shortcomings,
And
that our end is out of sight.
Prechorus:
So
when the time comes that the pants come undone,
Iím
drunk as a priest and youíre as sober as a nun.
Is
it any surprise what ends up going down?
So
when the sun comes through the window,
Youíre
still by my side and I still feel so low.
Iím
up to my knees and Iím already gonna drown.
Chorus:
Itís
a shady thing I can give you that,
And
if you want I can take it back.
So
why donít we just hug and let it go?
You
call me up just to bring me down.
Is
it any surprise that Iím never around?
Please
try to see that what I do, I do for you.
Verse
2:
Why
do we always do these oh so painful self-dissections,
As
if someday weíll understand?
Why
I donít call, I drink too much, I never do what I say,
And
I spend too much time with my band.
Prechorus
2:
So
when the time comes and the pants come undone,
Donít
be surprised if I choose to turn and run.
Iíve
been down that road; I know just how it goes down.
So
when the sun comes through the window,
I
know wake I'll up all safe and alone,
And
I wonít have to see another tear-filled frown.
(Chorus)
(Bass
solo, guitar breakdown, & keyboard breakdown)
If
we continue with these unsuccessful new beginnings,
I
may be forced to end this song.
His
name was Nicky, but the papers they all called him a star.
Verse:
His
name was Nicky, but the papers they all called him a star when we were through
with him.
Got
him groupies, leather jackets, and a custom guitar, all for nothiní.
Prechorus:
If
you are ready and good lookiní,
We
know exactly what youíre wishiní.
Verse
2:
Her
name was Susie, and her breasts were already quite large before we met her.
Got
her make-up, back-up dancers, and a push-up bra, now sheís a singer.
(Prechorus)
Chorus:
We
all wanna be another rock star,
Champagne
and expensive tastes.
Screw
chicks, O.D. in the bathroom,
Before
I fade away.
Oh,
I wanna be the next one to spit out
That
catch phrase of the day,
So
mom and dad wonít you please help me out,
And
enroll me in that rock school today.
Verse
3:
Now
Nickyís washed up and he had to sell out all the songs for his addiction.
And
Susie got herself a new job at a strip club to pay for her abortion.

That
catch phrase of the day,
So
