Hard Enough
02:43

the coast of california
is riddled with the rich and bored
so let's change the conversation
and talk about the things we're told
i've had enough insinuation
that nothing good is ever done
c'mon just look at all the progress
keeping us from seeming dumb
and it's hard enough to live a life
so let me live mine right
paint us all a picture
put it on the tv screen
or you can push a little button
and tell me what you've really seen
there's no cause for circulation
the imagery is really clean
and if you say i'm just obsessing
i know exactly what you mean
but it's hard enough to live a life
so let me live mine right
and it's hard enough to live yr life
so just take some time to get it right

Don't Tell

if you have ever made the grade
then there's nothing left to say
i already made mistakes
never learned how to behave
who said i was playing by the rules
go on and tell yrself it's cool
how can i make you understand
quite exactly who i am
oh my
nice try
oh well
don't tell
oh my
nice try
ah hell
don't tell

Make It Up
04:36
|

I somehow played the fool
it's all i ever do
and reminds me how i've kept from loving you
if there was another chance
i'd take no second glance
i might not ever fall into a trance
i might not lose the nerve to pick you up
i might just find the words that mean enough
and if i can't, don't even try to call my bluff
just hold for life and see that i will make it up
so the song i sing to you is no better than the news
that these words are hanging on like bitter fruit
and if karma makes the rules
then you won't need any proof
just hold for life and see that i will make it through
more or less there's nothing else that i could do
if i stumble when i step i'll never move
forget the mess and do my best to promise you
i'll make it up to you
and if you tell me, i'll make it up
and if it hurts me, i'll make it up
but if my heart beats, i'll make it up
and if you can't see through the disguise i will try
i will try to make it up
too far
too soon
so long
so few
of these words i have told you
keeps me falling for you
it makes no sense for me to fall apart
every time i do the time it gets so hard
i'd rather climb and earn the right back to the start
and make it up to you
and if you want me, i'll make it up
and if yr heart beats, i'll make it up
and if you can't see, i'll make it up
you'll see i'm trying to make it up
and if you tell me, i'll make it up
and if it hurts me, i'll make it up
and if my heart bleeds, i'll make it up
i've got a feeling i'll make it up
when there's nothing i'll make it up
show ya something, i'll make it up
something for nothing is all i got
and it's the one thing that won't let me stop
i'll make it up

Better Days
03:42
|
|||
cant stop can't slow
i just lost all control
yr heart my soul
big parts come in small roles
there's not a move you could make
not a chance to replace
all the timing in the phrase
better days seem like a so much better place to stay
and i told ya
yes i told ya
so the feeling's still the same
when it's warm or when it rains
there's nobody you could blame
when it comes to being honest
it's good to live without the shame
and i told ya
yes i told ya
love
pain
don't
change
better days seem like a so much better place to stay

Change
04:03
|
|||
anytime we turn it up
there's always something there to stop
passion was our only thought
but everything is different
never even seen the sun
now we've lost the only light
finding truth and losing touch
everything is different
and i wanna change
didn't mean to pull the plug
didn't mean to crack the sky
didn't mean to take the drug
now everyone is different
and i wanna change
all the reasons you discover
makes no sense to those who bother
take the right way to deliver
face the fear of getting closer to change
tell me if we been saved
and i'll tell ya i want to change
tell me if i've been saved
and i'll tell ya i wanna change
