They always said that lonesome town
Was where I'd spend my days
Cuz I just couldn't settle down
My life was such a craze

They always said that Lonesome Town
Would finally get to me
But lonesome is the only way
That I truly feel free....eee

Lonesome Town is crowded
And everyone's the same
With fresh new starts and broken hearts
Where no one knows your name
Though Lonesome Town is crowded
I'm always first in line
With fresh new starts for broken hearts
And wasting all my time

Well Lonesome Town its got its good
Its sure enough got its bad
Like walkin' round that big dance floor
For the date you wish you had

They always said that Lonesome Town
Would finally get to me
But lonesome is the only way
That I truly feel free....eee

Well lonesome town is crowded
Where everyone's the same
With fresh new starts and broken hearts
Where no one knows your name
Though Lonesome Town is crowded
I'm always first in line
With fresh new starts for broken hearts
And wasting all my time

You're either born to lose or you're born to win
That's just what I've found
But I've come to accept the fact
(Come to accept the fact)
I've come to accept the fact
(Come to accept the fact)
That's right I've come to accept the fact
That I was born in Lonesome Town

I've got a voice and I'm gonna use it
I've had a change of mind
I know things now that I didn't know before
I've got the upper hand and I don't want to abuse it
But soon I just might find I'm locked outside
My foot's not in the door

There's something in the back of my mind
Telling me to leave it behind
The trouble I seem to find
The hard to deal with kind
A thought or two in the back of my mind

I've got a choice and I'm afraid to make it
I've had a change of heart
I'm taking care of things
And taking things apart
You'll know my heart in conclusion
Cuz there's no way to fake it
And nothing to retort
TCB...deep inside my soul

There's something in the back of my mind
Telling me to leave it behind
The trouble I seem to find
The hard to deal with kind
A thought or two in the back of my mind

I've got a voice I'm gonna use it
I've got a voice I'm gonna use it
I've got a voice I'm gonna use it
I've had a change of mind

I've got a voice I'm gonna use it
I've got a voice I'm gonna use it
I've got a voice I'm gonna use it

There's something in the back of my mind
Telling me to leave it behind
The trouble I seem to find
The hard to deal with kind
A thought or two in the back of my mind

It's time to go
I don't care who you are or who you know
It's time to go
I don't care who you are or who you know

All my favorite movies had the coolest parties
Like the Cable Guy, Say Anything
Some Kind Of Wonderful and Grease

Cuz when it's time to go, it's time to go
This is life it's not a t.v. show
I'm sorry but you gotta go

This night is spent, you're out the door
If you're not paying rent
This night is spent, you're out the door
If you're not paying rent

All my favorite movies had the coolest parties
Like the Cable Guy, Say Anything
Some Kind Of Wonderful and Grease

Cuz when it's time to go, it's time to go
This is life it's not a t.v. show
I'm sorry but you gotta go

Cleaning up is the very worst part
Cleaning up is the very worst part
Cleaning up is the very worst part
Cuz there's no way to know where to start

All my favorite movies had the coolest parties
Like the Cable Guy, Say Anything
Some Kind Of Wonderful and Grease

Cuz when it's time to go, it's time to go
This is life it's not a t.v. show
I'm sorry but you gotta....
(Sorry but you gotta go)

All my favorite movies had the coolest parties
Like the Cable Guy, Say Anything
Some Kind Of Wonderful and Grease

Cuz when it's time to go, it's time to go
This is life it's not a t.v. show
I'm sorry but you gotta go
You gotta go!

I know I'm on the edge of falling through the cracks
My strength is spent but I can't turn back
Nothing's gonna change the way I feel
Only time will tell
Only time will heal

FAILURE! CONFUSION! ANGER! REVOLUTION!

It's not hard to look back
It's hard to look ahead
It's weird to think
That someday I'll be dead
Anger and confusion I can understand
But failure, I just can't accept

FAILURE! CONFUSION! ANGER! REVOLUTION!

You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
I know I'm really young
And that my life has just begun
Cuz I'm the opposite of you
And you're the opposite of me
I've done all I can do
So would you do the same for me?

I'm getting stronger all the time
It's an uphill battle but I'll be fine

You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
(You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you)

You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
There's nothing I can say
And there's nothing I can do
To change the opposite in you
Can't change the opposite in me
Life is pretty strange
And yeah I think we can agree

I'm getting stronger all the time
It's an uphill battle but I'll be fine

You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
(You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you)
You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
(You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite too!)

Getting stronger all the time
It's an uphill battle but I'll be fine

You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
(You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you)
You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you
(You're the opposite of me
And I'm the opposite of you)

Does it matter to you, does it matter to me?
Does it matter to anybody?
Just when you thought it was safe
Just when you thought you were free
Don't look back

In this life we don't have a lot of time
We don't have the time to waste it
We've got to make the best of what we have
But you don't know what you have
Or what you don't have

It's like being tired but you just can't sleep
Your bed is obsolete
It's like finding out the best things in life are free
After you already paid

In this life we don't have a lot of time
We don't have the time to waste it
We've got to make the best of what we have
But you don't know what you have
Or what you don't have

I want to make a difference in this world
A choice to a change to change the choice
I want to take control of my own life
Treat everybody right
I'm gonna try, I'm gonna try, gonna try

I want to make a difference in this world
A choice to a change to change the choice
I want to take control of my own life
Treat everybody right
I'm gonna try


. . .



I've seen you come around
It's not what I expected
I guess I must have known all along
I'd always be rejected

Now I see who's for real for twice in my life
At least I got a direction in my life
And I'm not pinned down
Cuz I know what I want
And I know how to get there
No one's gonna tell me what to do
Or what I've done

Now I see who's for real for twice in my life
(For twice in my life)
At least I got a direction in my life
(In My life)
And I'm not pinned down
Cuz I know what I want
And I know how to get there
(Know how to get there)
No one's gonna tell me what to do
Or what I've done


. . .



The struggle is in our hearts, it's in our hands
So whom do we really serve
What can we trust, what have we planned
Firmly fix your heart, your mind will follow
Everlonging, ever lasting
The truth is sometimes hard to swallow

We all understand the choice is in our hands
And chances are the choice has been pre made
As a plastic figurine slapped in a magazine
Or on your cable t.v. screen

So what exactly is it you believe
Maybe you don't know
Or maybe you wear it on your sleeve
I've got to ask myself the same
I've got to throw myself around
Because I know I've let you down

We all understand the choice is in our hands
And chances are the choice has been pre made
As a plastic figurine slapped in a magazine
Or on your cable t.v. screen

As a plastic figurine slapped in a magazine
Or on your cable t.v. screen

Yuri wakes up screaming
Yuri wakes up screaming
Oh, Yuri wakes up screaming

Yuri must be dreaming
When Yuri wakes up screaming

Yuri wakes up screaming
Yuri wakes up screaming
Oh, Yuri wakes up screaming
Oh, Yuri must be dreaming

Yuri wakes up screaming
Yuri wakes up screaming
Yuri must be dreaming
When Yuri wakes up screaming

(ah, ah, ah get me out of here, ah....mommy?)

Yuri needs a lot of sleep
Yuri needs a lot of sleep
Yuri needs a lot of sleep or he might die
Or he might die!

(I'm scaring the crap out of you
In the middle of the night)
