LOVE IN THE 21ST CENTURY
I dont believe in a life withoutconsequenceDo you believe when I say that Im notimpressed?You say I never ever, ever, ever wannatalk againI dont believe that you mean a singleword you said
Lines in the sand where we disagreeI think I wanna run away from you,youre killing me
But I know Id wanna see you in a dayor twoI dont believe that a single word yousay is true
I guess itsLoooooveIn the 21st centuryOh oh its toughBroken heart technologyYour kisses taste so sweetBut then you quick deleteLove in the 21st centuryIm in the 21st century
I dont believe making out is a deadromanceI miss the days being kids simply hold-ing handsIm sick of wondering if you would
ever call me backI check my four different accounts justto end up madWish I could dissect your brain apartIt takes a vivisection just to understandyour heartIf we could just own up get wound upmessed up
I guess itsLoooooveIn the 21st centuryOh oh its toughBroken heart technologyYour kisses taste so sweetBut then you quick deleteLove in the 21st centuryIm in the 21st century
Oh it gets so critical
We become caught up in the trivialMy dear were both a bit too cynicalCome close Ill give you somethingspiritualStand up and deliver meWere in love in the 21st century

1 TEXT ME IN THE MORNING
We danced a tango til our heads gotdizzyI felt your body heat, a damsel indistressMy daddy warned me not to get sobusyAnd suddenly Im watching you takeoff your dressI couldnt stick around
(Chorus)Text me in the morning
Tell me you still love meI dont believe a single wordYou tell me youre tipsyIll tell you youre prettyWe could spend the night if yourestill sureBut text me in the morningBut text me in the morning
Woke up all soakin wet from lastnights feverSmelling like cigarettes and brokenpromisesYour mother said dont be an overa-chieverA pleaser, oh please girl, I never didbelieve herAnd Ill never tell you whyIll never tell a lie

2 SLEEPING WITH A FRIEND
All my friendsTheyre different peopleAnxious like an ocean in a stormWhen we go outYeah were electricCoursing through our bodies til werewarmWhy mess up a good thing babyIts a risk to even fall in loveSo when you give that look to meI better look back carefullyCuz this trouble this is trouble
OhhhhOhhhhYouve got me in the moodIm scaredBut if my hearts gonna breakBefore the night will endOhhhhOhhhhWere in dangerSleeping with a friend
All my friendsStay up past midnightLooking for the thing to fill the voidI dont go out much like I used toSomething bout the strangers and thenoise
And why leave when Ive got you
babyIts a risk but babe I need the thrillI never said youd be easyBut it was all up to meItd be no trouble, hell were introuble
We are both young hot-bloodedpeopleWe dont wanna die aloneTwo become one, it could be lethal,yeah, yeahSleeping with a friend
All my friendsAll my friends

3 TEENAGER IN LOVE
There was a point of no returnAnd I never looked backTil I was holding your handI was socially absurdBut who careYeah Ive been shaky with withdrawalsIm a junkie loserAnd I never would choose toLive the way I doBut I do
Ill be your angel
Ill be your best friendTake me to New YorkTake me to heaven
Hes a teenA teenager in loveHes a teenA teenager in love
What a tragic attractionWhats the point of romanceHes a teenA teenager in loveIm a foolWith a curse and a crushWhat a tragic attractionWhats the point of romanceI never wanted to be a teenager in love
Teenager, teenager
There was a point when we were coolAnd it never went badTil you were holding his handAnd I couldnt say a wordBut who cares
Now Ive been talking to myselfMaking up a new plan on how to get you backItll probably never workAnd Im screwed
Ill be your angelIll be your best friendIm in my bedroomLets go to heaven
I dont wanna go outI just wanna sit inside my bedroomAnd obsess over everything I say to you
Young love is like a roller coasterYou couldnt pay me to ride if you triedTeenager

I LOVE YOU(BUT I HATE YOUR FRIENDS)
I drew my name in lipstickOn a mirror at your sisters houseShe told me I was strangeI told her thanks and kissed her on themouthBut you dont go that wayI thought you had a thing for fancyboysLooks can be deceiving
(Chorus)
I love youBut I hate your f riendsTheyre all desperateIf you knew what I knowWould you be ready to goAll this emptiness would endStop pretendingIf you knew what I knowWould you be ready to goWould you be ready to go
Here put this in your systemTurn up your radio until you shakeOh yeah and heres my numberYoull need it later when you leavethis placeShe said Ill never use it, Im not surewhat the hell you take me forGirl, looks can be deceiving
Theyre always on to the next big thingThey wanna bite but they can barelystingI never wanted you for just a flingI hate it when you lie to meBut I just let you lie to meI love you but I hate your friends

5 UNAVOIDABLE
I feel asleep last night to heartbeats inmy headI fell apart when I got home insidemy bedI cant think, cant speak, cant move,cant breatheIts a white hot heat when you getnext to meWhen Im around you its like wakingup the dead
My backs against the wall
Oh, oh, ohAnd I feel itThe pressureIm about to fallOh, oh, ohAnd I feel itIts torture
(Chorus)Its unavoidableYou are a magnetUnavoidableI am metallicSo do what you do, do what you doto meIts unavoidableYou are a magnetUnavoidableI am metallicPull me in
It never makes much sense to me butthats okIts like my love/hate relationship with LAIt feels so right, we get so highBut the feelings come and go onevery nightYet it wont ever take much to makeme stay
We couldnt be more polar oppositesBut what you do to me is magnetic

6 VOICES IN THE HALLS
I can taste your lemonadeBitter sweet like every summer flingBeen keeping up with all your storiesTalking to your ghost when Im asleepNo youre never really dead to meMaybe thats the mystery of usI used to t hink when you were goneI would still hear voices in the halls
I can feel the red rain on myI can see you shaking when we kissYou still hit me like a buzz
17 and drunk enough to wishAny you really got your hooks in meMaybe thats the punishment for loveI still stay up late at nightTrying to hear your voices in the halls
In the hallsIn the hallsIn the halls
You can hear me late at nightSinging to the voices in the hallsEvery time wed drive the coastHeaven or Las Vegas in your carPlaying on your broken speakersMe asleep and warm inside your armsNo its never like it used to beAnd maybe it just never really was
But every night when I get home
I can hear your voices in t he hallsEvery night when Im aloneI can hear your voices in t he halls

7 FOOLISH BEHAVIOR
A night like thisYou were wastedLike a teenager in loveI felt your touch it was nakedAnd I could not give you upSuddenly the room started spinning aroundOh I couldnt wait for an answerFireworks and strobes bring our knees to thegroundI never thought you were a dancerLean in closeAnd dont let go
(Chorus)Well you started out a strangerFoolish behavior brought us togetherTonightCould a ran away scaredBut somewhere out thereFoolish behavior seems rightsI dont know if its goodIm misunderstoodMost of my whole damn lifeWe started out strangersFoolish behavior brought us togetherTonight
A night like thisEvery minute is prelude to the showFace to faceGet lost in itYour eyes can tell me where to go
Suddenly the room is a big black and whiteJust like a scene from a movieEverythings in slow motion, flashing withlightYeah you know how to rule meLean in closeAnd dont let go
Think of the momentEverythings onNow set it in motionBefore its gone

LIVING IN ANOTHER WORLD
Phone keeps ringing in another roomIm day dreaming like a little kid atschoolCaffeine, thinking of my teenageyouthIm alive, but I can barely moveI guess Ive always been this wayIts been hard for me to sayClose my eyes, itll go awayYeah, yeahYeah, yeah
(Chorus)Theyve been telling meTo come of ageIve been going throughAn awkward phaseWhoaaaaaWhoaaaaaTheyve been trying hard to wakeme upSaying stuff that never gets me offWhoaaaaaWhoaaaaaDont mind meIm living in another worldDont mind meLiving in another worldTVs telling me to be myselfI cant trust what the neon psychicsells
So I found out how to trust myselfI found out Im stronger than the pillsI guess Ive always been this wayIts been hard for me to sayClose my eyes take me awayYeah, yeahYeah, yeah
(Chorus)
There are nights I feel like I could dieFour chords and a beat keep me aliveYou can barely recognizeEverything beyond my eyesIve been going through it my wholelife(Chorus)

9 FIRST THINGS FIRST
It began when I was 21 years oldAnd my mom and dad were beggingme to goSo I left a note we went and hit theroadMe and Chris and all the stuff I ownI would out to find my soulAnd left the only comfort that IdknownIt wasnt bout a girl or leaving Califor-nia bleedingIt was all about me choosing where
to goAnd I sang
You are never gonna get everythingyou want in this worldFirst things firstGet what you deserve
There were years it felt like everythingwas newLong after the troubles of my youthThere were days and nights I couldntsee the endAnd I swear that music was my onlyfriend
You learn a lot about forgivenessWhen you choose to let down all yourprideI dont want to be so famous
I just wanna sing until I dieSo sing it
It began when I learned how to facemyselfAnd Im still deciding if Im somethingelseIm a million different people all thetimeBut theres only one of me to get itright
When I wish upon a starIll tell it how I got this far
