Waiting on a ticket
‘Cause you’re looking for the ride
You’re feeling on top
‘Cause you’re flying through the sky
You wanna have your cake
And you wanna eat it too

until the pilot notifies us that we areat a safe flying altitude of 10,000 ft.”

Looking from the outside
You’re always looking in
You think you fixed the problem
‘Til it comes right back again
And life seems like a trap
You’re trying to get out
You’re searching for you cheese
‘Cause you feel like mighty mouse
You’re damned if you don’t
You’re damned if you do
You’ve seen all the signs
But you haven’t got a clue

Staring at the cracks in the walls
‘Cause I’m waiting for it all
to come to an end
Still I curl up right under the bed
‘Cause it’s takin’ over my head
All over again

Do you even know who you are?
I guess I’m trying to find
A borrowed dream or a superstar?
I want to be a star
Is life good to you, or is it bad?
I can’t tell anymore
Do you even know what you have?

Lying awake
Watching the sunlight
How the birds will sing
As I count the rings around my eyes
Constantly pushing
The world I know aside
I don’t even feel the pain
I don’t even want to try

I’m looking for a way to become
The person that I dreamt up
When I was 16
Oh, nothing is ever enough
Ooh, baby it ain’t enough
For what it may seem

Do you even know who you are?
I’m still trying to find
A borrowed dream or a superstar?
Everybody wants to be…
Is life good to you, or is it bad?
I can’t tell anymore
Do you even know what you have?
No

Sorry girl
Tell a tale for me
‘Cause I’m wondering
How you really feel
I’m a lonely girl
I’ll tell a tale for you
‘Cause I’m just trying to make
All my dreams come true

Do you even know who you are?
Oh yeah, yeah
A borrowed dream or a superstar?
Oh, I wanted to be a star
Is life good to you, or is it bad?
I can’t tell, I can’t tell anymore
Do you even know what you have?
I guess not, oh, I guess not

Do you even know who you are?
Oh, I’m trying to find
A rising dream, or a falling star?
Oh, I have all these dreams
Is life good to you, or is it bad?
I can’t tell anymore
Do you even know what you have?
Oh, no, no

Do you even know who you are?
A rising dream, or falling star?
Is life good to you, or is it bad?

Philadelphia freedom
well, it’s not like you have heard
The city of brotherly love
is full of pain and hurt

Going to California
to find my pot of gold

Corruption on every corner
hustlers selling sweets
Baby is home crying
while her momma’s on the street.

Everybody’s dying
have you heard the news today?
A woman in north philly is mourning
the bullet took another son away

I’m going to California
I’m going far, far away

Going to California, yes
to resurrect my soul
The sun is always shining, shining
or at least that’s what I’m told

Goin’ to California
there’s a better life for me, yeah

Goin’ to California
I’ll write and tell you what I see

Goin’ to California

Once I fed the homeless
I’ll never forget
The look upon their faces as I
Treated them with respect

This is my Vietnam
I’m at war
Life keeps on dropping bombs
And I keep score

Mama was a lunatic
She liked to push my buttons
She said I wasn’t good enough
But I guess I wasn’t trying

Never liked school that much
They tried to teach me better
But I just wasn’t hearing it
Because I thought I was already pretty clever

This is my Vietnam
I’m at war
Life keeps on dropping bombs
And I keep score

This is my Vietnam
I’m at war
Life keeps on dropping bombs
And I keep score

What do you expect from me
What am I not giving you
What could I do for you
To make me okay in your eyes

Chorus: This is my vietnam
I’m at war
They keep on droppin bombs
And I keep score

Everyday I fight a war against the mirror
Can’t take the person staring back at me

I’m a hazard to myself

All you have to change
Is everything you are
Tired of being compared
To damn Britney Spears

Since you’ve been gone
I ain’t been the same
I carry the weight like an old ball and chain
Guess it’s all meant to be … for love to cause me misery

Oh, misery
Oh, misery
Tell me, why does my heart
Make a fool of me?
Seems it’s my destiny
For love to cause me misery

And Oh, I’ve been down this road before
where the passion it turns into pain
And each time I saw love walk out the door
I swore I’d never get caught up again

But ain’t it true
It takes what it takes
And sometimes
we get too smart too late
One more heartache for me
Another night in misery

Misery
Misery
Tell me, why does my heart make a fool of me?

Misery

Tell me, why does my heart make a fool of me?

Seems it’s my destiny,
for love to cause misery

I hear glasses breakin
as I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didn’t mean
those nasty things you said

You fight about money
about me and my brother
And this I come home to
this is my shelter
It ain’t easy
growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, you’ll see
I don’t want love to destroy me like it has done my family

Can we work it out?
Can we be a family?
I promise I’ll be better
Mommy I’ll do anything
Can we work it out?
Can we be a family?
I promise I’ll be better
Daddy please don’t leave

Daddy please stop yellin
I can’t stand the sound

Make mama stop cryin
cause I need you around
My mama she loves you
no matter what she says its true
I know that she hurts you
but remember I love you, too

I ran away today
ran from the noise, ran away
Don’t wanna go back to that place
but don’t have no choice, no way

It ain’t easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, well I’ve seen
I don’t want love to destroy me like it did my family

Can we work it out?
Can we be a family?
I promise I’ll be better
Mommy I’ll do anything
Can we work it out?
Can we be a family?
I promise I’ll be better
Daddy please don’t leave

In our family portrait
We look pretty happy
Let’s play pretend
Let’s act like it comes naturally

I don’t wanna have to split the holidays!
I don’t want two addresses!
I don’t want a step-brother anyways!
And I don’t want my mom to have to change her last name!

In our family portrait
We look pretty happy
We look pretty normal
Let’s go back to that
In our family portrait
We look pretty happy
Let’s play pretend
Act like it goes naturally

I’m crying here
What have you done?
I thought it would be fun

I can’t stay on your life support
There’s a shortage in the switch
I can’t stay on your morphine
Cause it’s making me itch
I said I tried to call the nurse again
But she’s being a little bitch
I think I’ll get out of here

Where I can run, just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears
And I swear, you’re just like a pill
Instead of making me better
You keep making me ill
You keep making me ill

I haven’t moved from the spot where you left me
This must be a bad trip
All of the other pills, they were different
Maybe I should get some help

I can’t stay on your life support
There’s a shortage in the switch
I can’t stay on your morphine
Cause it’s making me itch
I said I tried to call the nurse again
But she’s being a little bitch

Like the coldest winter
I am frozen from you

I was weak before now you’ve made me
So numb I can’t feel much for you anymore
I gave you my all my baby
I’m numb, numb, numb

But the tears were silent inside, you see
But the tears were silent inside, you see

I laid there quiet
And watched you have your way with me
I might have cried
But the tears were silent inside, you see

You called me names
Made me feel like I was dumb
I didn’t feel a thing
And now I’m gone, gone, gone

Like a battered child
I got used to your pain
but you know it’s ’cause

I was weak before now you’ve made me
So numb, I can’t feel much for you anymore
I gave you my all my baby
I’m numb, numb, numb

I was weak before now you’ve made me
So numb, I can’t feel much for you anymore

So many players you’d think I was a ball game
Its every man for themselves, there are no team mates
This life gets lonely
when everybody wants something
They’ll smile up in your face
But they’ll get theirs eventually
And I hope I’m there

Surrounded by familiar faces without names
None of them know me or want to share my pain
And they only wish to bask in my light, then fade away
To win my love, to them a game
To watch me live my life in vain
When all is done and the glitter fades (fades away?
They’ll get theirs eventually
And I hope I’m there

I drank your poison, ´cause you told me its wine
Shame on you if you fooled me once
Shame on me if you fooled me twice!
I didn’t know the price
You’ll get yours eventually

So what good am I to you
if I can’t be broken?
You’ll get yours
yes you’ll get yours
eventually.
