Hero/Heroine Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

It's too late baby, there's no turning around
I got my hands in my pocket and my head in a cloud
This is how I do
When I think about you
I never thought that you could break me apart
I keep a sinister smile and a hold of my heart
You want to get inside
Then you can get in line
But not this time

Cause you caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming

I feel like a hero and you are my heroine

I won't try to philosophize
I'll just take a deep breath then I'll look in your eyes
This is how I feel
And it's so surreal
I got a closet filled up to the brim
With the ghosts of my past and their skeletons
And I don't know why
You'd even try
But I won't lie

You caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming

I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?

And I feel a weakness coming on
It never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
And I'm feeling like a newborn child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded

And you caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming

I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?

(I feel like a hero and you are my heroine)
And I feel a weakness coming on
It never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
(Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?)
And I'm feeling like a newborn child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded

(I feel like a hero and you are my heroine)
And I feel a weakness coming on
It never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
(Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?)
And I'm feeling like a newborn child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded

On Top Of The World Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

Look up, the stars are fading
And I am still here waiting to see you again
Be with you my friend
When the moon is gone forever
I hope you're up there somewhere, I'll see you again
Be with you my friend

Cause all the roads they lead to where you are
And all the streetlights shine like they were stars
That's where you are

Let's spend tonight on top of the world
And we can do anything
We can be anything
I'll meet you tonight on top of the world
As real as it seems
You're only in my dreams

Look out across the water
Faces of lonely daughters and mothers who care
But just can't be there
Swear that I will see you someday
I have to find a way To show you I care
Even if you're not there

So I'm following the road to where you are
(Meet you tonight on top of)
The streetlights they will guide me to the stars
That's where you are

Let's spend tonight on top of the world
And we can do anything
We can be anything
I'll meet you tonight on top of the world
As real as it seems
You're only in my dreams

My heart is empty without you
Sometimes you don't know what to do
And I need you tonight
I'll fall asleep and it's alright
Close my eyes and I'll be by your side

Let's spend tonight on top of the world
And we can do anything
We can be anything
I'll meet you tonight on top of the world
As real as it seems
You're only in my dreams

Let's spend tonight on top of the world
(On top of the world)
As real as it seems
You're only in my dreams

Thunder Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

Today is a winding road that's taking me to places that I didn't want to go
Whoa (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Today in the blink of an eye I'm holding on to something and I do not know why
I tried

I tried to read between the lines
I tried to look in your eyes
I want a simple explanation
For what I'm feeling inside
I gotta find a way out
Maybe there's a way out

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder

Today is a winding road
Tell me where to start and tell me something I don't know
Whoa (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Today I'm on my own
I can't move a muscle and I can't pick up the phone
I don't know (I don't know, I don't know, I don't know)

And now I'm itching for the tall grass
And longing for the breeze
I need to step outside
Just to see if I can breathe
I gotta find a way out
Maybe theres a way out

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain

Yeah I'm walking on a tightrope
I'm wrapped up in vines
I think we'll make it out
But you just gotta give me time
Strike me down with lightning
Let me feel you in my veins
I wanna let you know how much I feel your pain

Today is a winding road that's taking me to places that I didn't want to go
Whoa

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder

And I said
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
Oh baby bring on the pain
And listen to the thunder

Me, You And My Medication Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

Found my way to the highway, I don't wanna tell you the state I'm in
I've had too much to smoke, too much to drink, where have I been?
I feel like the stars are getting closer and the sky is closing in
And I don't know where to begin

We're all looking for something, to take away the pain

Me, and you, and my medication
(Making the best of it)
Love is just a chemical creation
(Will it be permanent?)
Synthetic sensation
Me, you, and my medication

The way back to the right track, maybe you can help me find the door
Is it too much to ask, too much too fast, too much to ignore?
It feels like your body's getting closer but you seem so far away
Medicine make it ok

We're all looking for someone, to take away the pain

Me, and you, and my medication
(Making the best of it)
Love is just a chemical creation
(Will it be permanent?)
Synthetic sensation
Me, you, and my medication

So can you feel it?
Do you feel it coming down?
You gotta get up
Can you get up off the ground?
Can you hear it?
Can you hear me screaming?
So can you feel it?
Do you feel it coming down?
You gotta get up
Can you get up off the ground?
I wanna hear it
Wanna hear you breathing

We're all addicted to something, that takes away the pain

Me, and you, and my medication
(Making the best of it)
Love is just a chemical creation
(Will it be permanent?)
Synthetic sensation
Me, you, and my medication

Up Against The Wall Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

It's over
Look out below
And I'm wasted
I still taste it
Yeah it's so hard to let go
So breathe in now
And breathe it out
The forecast
A car crash
It's looking like another...

Breakdown, rebound
This could be my last goodbye
You crossed your heart, I hope to die

And I can't deny your eyes
You know I tried to read between the lines
I saw a warning sign
And then you threw me up against the wall
Who said that it's better to have loved and lost?
I wish that I had never loved at all

No rewinds
No second times
And I won't break
I won't waste
Everything you left behind
So don't follow
Just let it go
The weather's, been better
Don't let it be another...

Breakdown, rebound
This could be my last goodbye
You crossed your heart, I hope to die

And I can't deny your eyes
You know I tried to read between the lines
I saw a warning sign
And then you threw me up against the wall
Who said that it's better to have loved and lost?
I wish that I had never loved at all

All the nights I spent sitting at home while you were out there on your own
All the nights I waited by the phone while you were going it alone
And all your different faces and all your different ways of making everything a mess
And all I'm saying is that all your different places and all the complications laid to rest

And I can't deny your eyes
You know I tried to read between the lines
I saw a warning sign
And then you threw me up against the wall
Who said that it's better to have loved and lost?
I wish that I had never loved
And I can't deny your eyes
You know I tried to read between the lines
I saw a warning sign
And then you threw me up against the wall
Who said that it's better to have loved and lost?
I wish that I had never loved at all
(Never loved at all)

Dance Hall Drug Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

Grown up
She just turned 16
Stuck in the moment
Dead at the scene
And it's on tonight
This is the life that you wanted, right?
So turn off all the lights
Dressed up just like a movie star
At all the parties they'll know who you are
Wouldn't it be great, to be fashionably late?
So why don't you wait, till you're sedated

Don't it feel like something's not right in his kiss tonight?

Yeah what I'm saying is do you, do you want to lose it all?
Cause this is more than just a dance hall drug
You can't wait to fall in love
All I'm saying is do you, do you want to learn to fly?
Then you should pack it up and say goodbye
Cause when the push comes to the shove
It's just a dance hall drug

Step in and you can lock the door
The candles are lit and the clothes on the floor
You could take a chance on finding romance
Now you're holding hands
But he's got other plans
Tick-tock, the clock is turning red
The room won't stop spinning and thoughts in your head
And it's too late
You feel like you're making a big mistake
You should've waited

Don't it feel like something's not right in his kiss tonight?

Yeah what I'm saying is do you, do you want to lose it all?
Cause this is more than just a dance hall drug
You can't wait to fall in love
All I'm saying is do you, do you want to learn to fly?
Then you should pack it up and say goodbye
Cause when the push comes to the shove
It's just a dance hall drug

Just wait love
Show 'em what you're made of

Don't it feel like something's not right in his kiss tonight?

Do you, do you want to lose it all?
Cause this is more than just a dance hall drug
You can't wait to fall in love
All I'm saying is do you, do you want to learn to fly?
Then you should pack it up and say goodbye
Cause when the push comes to the shove
It's just a dance hall drug
Do you, do you want to lose it all?
Cause this is more than just a dance hall drug
You can't wait to fall in love
All I'm saying is do you, do you want to learn to fly?
Then you should pack it up and say goodbye
Cause when the push comes to the shove
It's just a dance hall drug

Learning To Fall Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

Today is the day,
the worst day of my life.
You sulk until it hurts me.
I don't know why.
The cost of misery is at an all-time high.
I keep it hidden.
Close to the surface, inside.

I'm learning to fall.
I can't hardly breathe.
When I'm going down don't worry 'bout me.
Don't try this at home.
Pretend you don't see.
I don't wanna know that you know it should have been me.

Could you be with him?
Or was it just a lie?
He doesn't get you like I do.
And you don't know why.
You change your clothes and your hair,
but I can't change your mind.
oh, I'm uninvited. So unrequited, now.

I'm learning to fall.
I can't hardly breathe.
When I'm going down don't worry 'bout me.
Don't try this at home.
Pretend you don't see.
I don't wanna know that you know it should have been me.

Words screaming in my head.
Why did you leave?
And I can't stop dreaming.
Watching you and him.
When it should have been.
It should have been me.

Today is the day,
the worst day of my life.

I'm learning to fall.
I can't hardly breathe.
When I'm going down don't worry 'bout me.
Don't try this at home.
Pretend you don't see.
I don't wanna know that you know it should have been me.

Whoa, whoa
(I'm learning to fall, I can't hardly breathe)
(I don't wanna know that you know, it should have been me)
(Tell me that you know, it should have been me)

Whoa, whoa
(Don't try this at home, pretend you don't see)
I don't want to know that you know, it should've been me)

Whoa, whoa
(I'm learning to fall, I can't hardly breathe)
(I don't wanna know that you know, it should have been me)
(Tell me that you know, it should have been me)

Whoa, whoa
(Don't try this at home, pretend you don't see)
(I don't wanna know that you know, it should've been me)

"Heels Over Head Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

I got your runaway smile in my piggybank baby
Gonna cash it right in for a new Mercedes
You were worth the hundred thousand miles
But you couldn't stay awhile
I got your little brown shirt in my bottom drawer baby
And your little white socks in the top drawer
You were always leaving your shit around
And gone without a sound

Yeah I'm the first to fall and the last to know
Where'd you go?

Now I'm heels over head
I'm hangin' upside down
Thinking how you left me for dead
California bound

I got a first class ticket to a night all alone
And a front row seat up right by the phone
Cause you're always on my mind
And I'm running out of time
I've got your hair on my pillow and your smell in my sheets
And it makes me think about you with the sand in your feet
Is it all you thought it'd be?
You mean everything to me

But I'm the first to fall and the last to know
And where'd you go?

Now I'm heels over head,
I'm hangin' upside down
Thinking how you left me for dead
California bound
And when you hit the coast
I hope you think of me
And how I'm stuck here with the ghost of what we used to be

You're burnin' bridges baby
Burnin' bridges, making wishes
Yeah you're burnin' bridges baby
Burnin' bridges, making wishes
You're burnin' bridges baby
Burnin' bridges, making wishes
Yeah you're burnin' bridges baby
Burnin' bridges, making wishes

You're a chance taker, heartbreaker
Got me wrapped around your finger
Chance taker, heartbreaker
Got me wrapped around your finger

I got your runaway smile in my piggybank baby
Gonna cash it right in for a new Mercedes
If I drive a hundred thousand miles
Would you let me stay a while?

Now I'm heels over head,
I'm hangin' upside-down
Thinking how you left me for dead
California bound
And when you hit the coast
I hope you think of me
And how I'm stuck here with the ghost of what we used to be

Now I'm heels over head,
I'm hangin' upside-down
Thinking how you left me for dead
California bound
And when you hit the coast
Maybe you'll finally see
And then you'll turn it all around and you'll come back to me

Broken Man Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

I want to scream, until no sound comes out and you've learned your lesson
I want to swallow these pills to get to sleep
So I don't have to make a bad impression

I need to start to be myself
Cause I'm sick of everybody else

I won't let you bring me down
It's here and now I'm breaking out
I will learn to love again
But I will stand a broken man

I wanna run, but only far enough to make you miss me
I wanna take back all the shit that I have done
But I guess you were better off without me

I need to start to be myself
Cause I'm sick of everybody else

I won't let you bring me down
It's here and now, I'm breaking out
I will learn to love again
But I will stand a broken man

I took one big step and I looked away
And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say
I'm always too late
You never got your story straight
I'm always up late
I think I'm everything you hate

I took one big step and I looked away
And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say
I'm always too late
You never got your story straight
I'm always up late
I think I'm everything you hate

I took one big step and I looked away
And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say
I'm always too late
You never got your story straight
I'm always up late
I think I'm everything you hate

I won't let you bring me down
It's here and now, I'm breaking out
I will learn to love again
But I will stand a broken man

(I took one big step and I looked away, and I thought of all the things that I wanted to say)
I won't let you bring me down
(I'm always too late, you never got your story straight, I'm always up late, I think I'm everything you hate)
It's here and now I'm breaking out
(I took one big step and I looked away, and I thought of all the things that I wanted to say)
I will learn to love again
(I'm always too late, you never got your story straight)
But I will stand a broken man

Holiday Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

When I was younger I used to be wild
As wild as an elephant's child
No one could hold me down
No one could keep me around
Now it's your turn, take a shot
Baby show me everything that you got
Maybe you can keep me alive
Maybe you can get in my mind
But it's only a matter of time

Before I run far away
I need to take a holiday
Maybe it's a fall from grace
I gotta find a new place
A holiday
I'll set off on a new chase
I gotta see a new face
I need to take a holiday

My father, he was always wise
As wise as an elephant's eyes
He couldn't hold me down
He couldn't keep me around
So are you gonna take your shot?
It's the only one that you got
Maybe I'll go out on a limb
Maybe I'll jump in for a swim
When the lights go dim

You know I'll run far away
I need to take a holiday
Maybe it's a fall from grace
I gotta find a new place
A holiday
I'll set off on a new chase
I gotta see a new face
I need to take a holiday
(Need to take a holiday)

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

A new start
I've broken too many hearts
And I don't have any clue where to go
I don't know
But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday

When I was younger I used to be wild
As wild as an elephant's child
And I don't think I'll ever change
I think I'm gonna stay the same

I'll run away
I need to take a holiday (need to take a holiday)
Maybe it's a fall from grace
I gotta find a new place
A holiday
I'll set off on a new chase (set off on a new chase)
I gotta see a new face
I need to take a holiday

A new start
I've broken too many hearts
And I don't have any clue where to go
I don't know
But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday

All of the wasted time
The hours that were left behind
The answers that we'll never find
They don't mean a thing tonight

Free Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

Carry on, you won't miss me when I'm gone
Won't hear the phone ring
You won't hear me sing
Yeah I'm guilty, guilty of everything
I'll run away
Cause I've gotta find a place where you won't know me
I wanna go so far
Oh I'm guilty, guilty of every charge

Throw away the horoscopes
And don't you ever give up hope
Without me, you will be...
Free, without me
You're free, without me

Settle down
And keep your feet touching the ground
You will be okay
You will see better days
Just watch me
Watch yourself fade away
I love your mind
I love your routine, daily grind
All the words you say
Oh your every day
Just watch me
You'll see I'm gone away

Oh throw away the horoscopes
And don't you ever give up hope
Without me, you will be...
Free, without me
You're free
Free, without me
You're free

Now don't worry 'bout a thing
You can fly without my wings
I know you'll make it on your own, I know
Yeah if you stand up and be strong
I know you'll carry on
And I know that you will see that you're free

Without me, you'll be...
Free, without me
You're free
Free, without me
You're free

Now don't worry 'bout a thing
You can fly without my wings
I know you'll make it on your own, I know
Yeah if you stand up and be strong
I know you'll carry on
And I know that you will see that you're free
Without me

I Told You So Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

Whenever you go then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you wish you never left me
I say I told you so
I told you so

I used to think it mattered
How hard it was to cry
Crying just a reflex now to you
Instead of trying to heal the scars
And the potholes in your life
Put a steel plate over them and that'll do
And as I waited by the bathroom door
You're writing on the bathroom floor
Waiting for an answer that only I can give to you

Whenever you go then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you wish you never left me
I say I told you so
I told you so
Whenever you go then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you're always gonna love me
I say I told you so
I told you so

The sun comes up and the blinds go down
To hide you from the light
The light inside you eyes that wants to shine
All of the Sunday morning reruns
seem ridiculous like you
Sleeping everyday at the different times
You can run but you can't hide from me
I know who you used to be
And that's the person that
I wants to let me come inside

Whenever you go then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you wish you never left me
I say I told you so
I told you so
Whenever you go then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you're always gonna love me
I say I told you so
I told you so

Don't shut the door, don't shut me out
Don't make this be the last time
that I see your hands
Cause I want them to hold me
And I want you to show me
That this will be our only place
Without your face there's just no..

Whenever you go then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you wish you never left me
I say I told you so
I told you so
Whenever you go then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you're always gonna love me
I say I told you so
I told you so
Whenever you go then I'll be waiting
Whenever the loneliness you're hating
Whenever you say you wish you never left me
I say I told you so
I told you so
I say I told you so
I told you so
I say I told you so
I told you so

If You Could See Me Now Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

The nights grow cold
I'm growing older
Everyday you're gone
Is more lonesome than the last one
I've spent all this time
Without you in my life
And you're still on my mind
Nothing ever feels alright

I'm tired of being alone
Why don't you just come home
Because I miss you so
And I want you to know

If you could see me now
We could move on somehow
If you could travel all the miles again
If you could just see me now
You wouldn't have a doubt
We could just start this love all over
And forget the things we know
If you could see me now
Somehow

Everything I said
Wasn't what I meant
I hope you can forget
And I can leave all my regrets
Behind tonight
And catch a flight to Boston
And come start a new life
And this time we can do it right

I'm tired of being alone
Why don't you just come home
Because I miss you so
And I want you to know

If you could see me now
We could move on somehow
If you could travel all the miles again
If you could just see me now
You wouldn't have a doubt
We could just start this love all over
And forget the things we know
If you could see me now
Somehow

If you could see me now
We could move on somehow
If you could travel all the miles

If you could see me now
We could move on somehow
If you could travel all the miles again
If you could just see me now
You wouldn't have a doubt
We could just start this love all over
And forget the things we know
If you could see me now
We could move on somehow
If you could travel all the miles again
If you could see me now
Somehow

Kill Me In A Record Shop Lyrics – Boys Like Girls

Your kiss, your kiss will be the ultimate
Your kiss, your kiss

You walked in
Indie rock used to be dirty pop
Could you be everything;
My rise and my fall?
Rescue me, 9 to 5
40 fires in your eyes
I don't care what you buy
Just don't you go

No need to leave the light on
There's no one here tonight
Only you and I

Kill me in a record shop now
One shot and you took me down
I could feel it when the arrow hit
You sunk me with your deadly lips
Your kiss, your kiss will be the ultimate
Your kiss, your kiss
I can't get over it

Now, spin me 'round the record shop
Look at you, the record stops
Will you run, or flirt 'til it hurts?
Dance with me, with your eyes
As you scream through the aisles
Bury me a 12 inch grave
And don't you go

No need to leave the light on
There's no one here tonight
Only you and I

Kill me in a record shop now
One shot and you took me down
I could feel it when the arrow hit
You sunk me with your deadly lips
Your kiss, your kiss will be the ultimate
Your kiss, your kiss
I can't get over it

Tonight, tonight
Don't leave me tonight
Reach for me, just one time
As the sun sets behind
Don't say goodbye, goodbye
Don't say goodbye

Kill me in a record shop now
One shot and you took me down
I could feel it when the arrow hit
You sunk me with your deadly lips
Your kiss, your kiss will be the ultimate
Your kiss, your kiss
I can't get over it

Kill me in a record shop now
One shot and you took me down
I could feel it when the arrow hit
You sunk me with your deadly lips
Your kiss, your kiss will be the ultimate
Your kiss, your kiss
I can't get over it
Your kiss, your kiss will be the ultimate
Your kiss, your kiss
I can't get over it
