THE OUTSIDE lyrics - Boys Like Girls
It's okay, it's alright
Baby welcome to life on the outside
Sleep all day, ride all night
Yeah we're living it up on the outside
I remember the days in the class of '04
In the back of the jeep crashing out on the floor
We had nothing in our pockets to cling to
And baby nothing but the sky in the rearview
In the halls with a rock tee, dickies and chucks
All the meatheads and mean girls like "Dude your band sucks"
Had a bandana hanging out of my grad gown
Like you can push me all you want, I won't fall down no
It's okay, it's alright
Baby welcome to life on the outside
Sleep all day, ride all night
Yeah we're living it up on the outside
And you can knock it if you really want to
But we're the life of the party
It's okay, it's alright
Baby welcome to life on the outside
Watch the sunset fade to a parking lot glow
We were kings and queens of the strip mall row
Trading million-dollar ideas for eighth bags
Our little fortunes built on lighters and dog tags
With our fists in the air and the radio up
We were dying to live, we were living on luck
When they would try to pick a fight in the hallway
We'd just throw a finger in the air and say
It's okay, it's alright
Baby welcome to life on the outside
Sleep all day, ride all night
Yeah we're living it up on the outside
And you can knock it if you really want to
But we're the life of the party
It's okay, it's alright
Baby welcome to life on the outside
Yeah yeah yeah yeah-yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah-yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah-yeah
Welcome to life on the outside
That's life and we're just living the life
That's life and we're just living it
That's life and we're just living the life
That's life and we're just living it
That's life and we're just living the life
That's life and we're just living it
That's life and we're just living the life
That's life and we're just living it
It's okay, it's alright
Baby welcome to life on the outside
Sleep all day, ride all night
Yeah we're living it up on the outside
And you can knock it if you really want to
But we're the life of the party
It's okay, it's alright
Baby welcome to life on the outside
Yeah yeah yeah yeah-yeah (on the outside)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah-yeah (on the outside)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah-yeah (on the outside)
Welcome to life on the outside
LANGUAGE lyrics - Boys Like Girls
I kinda think that it's all part of your plan
Sending me messages I don't understand
Half of the boy but I'm twice of the man
Who, who are you?
I'm feeling naked, yeah, I'm feeling exposed
Covered in glances that I try to decode
Take me to places that nobody knows
Who, who do you
Think you are to leave me speechless?
Wear my weakness like your clothes
Then you touch me it's like breathing, it goes
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Now you're speaking my language
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Now you're speaking my language
I know exactly what you're saying when you're saying it
I know the game because I'm playing, yeah, I'm playing it too
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Now you're speaking my language
There's tiny galaxies all over your skin
Biting my lip was the original sin
You're saying nothing but I'm listening
Ooh, ooh to you
When you leave you leave me guessing
Wear my whispers like a chain
Then you kiss me there's no question you say
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Now you're speaking my language
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Now you're speaking my language
I know exactly what you're saying when you're saying it
I know the game because I'm playing, yeah, I'm playing it too
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Now you're speaking my language
You're touching my body, I'm touching you back
I thought we were friends but friends don't do that
We say what we say, we live how we live
Na-na-na now you're speaking my language
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Now you're speaking my language
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Now you're speaking my language
I know exactly what you're saying when you're saying it
I know the game because I'm playing, yeah, I'm playing it too
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Now you're speaking my language
You're touching my body, I'm touching you back
I thought we were friends but friends don't do that
We say what we say, we live how we live
Na-na-na now you're speaking my language
Na-na-na now you're speaking my language
Na-na-na now you're speaking my language
Na-na-na now you're speaking my language
BLOOD AND SUGAR lyrics - Boys Like Girls
Right? Right?
Well, she said she'd only take me
If I were the only man alive
When she's standing right in front of me
I'm about to lose my mind, I feel it breaking
No, my heart ain't worth the saving tonight
It's like I'm moving in slow motion
And I'm blinded by the sound
See, my body's in the ocean
But my head is underground
I tried to pin it, but her heart I'll never win it, so goodnight
Even though the girl's a looker
We're only blood and sugar, right?
(Only blood and sugar, only blood and sugar)
No, I never understood her
We're only blood and sugar, right?
Well, she said she wouldn't come for me
She's gonna leave me high and dry
See, our love could be a symphony
But she'd rather let it die than be together
Yeah, she swears I'll never ever get inside (Inside)
Well, I wish I knew what shook her
We're only blood and sugar, right?
(Only blood and sugar, only blood and sugar)
No, I never understood her
We're only blood and sugar, right?
Only blood and sugar, right?
Only blood and sugar, right?
I gotta taper off the medicine
Pick my back up off the floor
Need a fix of some adrenaline
Get my ass up out the door and find another
I could use a better lover in my life
(In my life)
Still I wish I knew what took her
We're only blood and sugar, right?
(Only blood and sugar, only blood and sugar)
No, I never understood her
We're only blood and sugar, right?
(Only blood and sugar, only blood and sugar)
Why's my heart still in the cooker
If we're only blood and sugar, right?
Yeah, blood and sugar, baby
Only blood and sugar, right?
(Only blood and sugar, only blood and sugar)
(Only blood and sugar, only blood and sugar)
Yeah, we're only, yeah
No, I never understood her
We're only blood and sugar, right?
NEW LOVE lyrics - Boys Like Girls
I been through one too many close calls
Another night another bathroom stall
I swore that I was doing fine
But I was on my way to giving up
Thought my own company might be enough
And I was scared to walk the line
Scared of running out of time
Then I fell into a white screen
Just like a picture in a magazine
Though my odds weren't looking strong
You said, "baby, you're just blowing smoke
I ain't no notch up on your bedpost"
You said, "I hope you prove me wrong"
And the boys, they cheered me on
New love, it's too young to be true love
But it's you love, that I'm tryna get to love
New love, it's too young to be true love
But it's you love, you're too good to be true love
Yeah you're too good to be true
I remember on our first date
You kept your heart locked in a fireproof safe
And we were strangers in the sand
Picking songs out on the jukebox
A golden necklace with a celtic cross
And then you let me hold your hand
And had me running for the heartland
New love, it's too young to be true love
But it's you love, that I'm tryna get to love
New love, girl it's too young to be true love
But it's you love, you're too good to be true love
Yeah you're too good to be true
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
A couple trips around the sun and we
Share an address and got new state IDs
We're walking out in the unknown
It took a second but I cleaned up
Look in the mirror, see I'm all grown up
And with a promise and a stone
You don't have to walk alone
New love, it's too young to be true love
(Is it true love baby?)
But it's you love, that I'm tryna get to love
(It's you that I'm trying to get to if you want me too then darling)
New love, girl it's too young to be true love
But it's you love, you're too good to be true love
Yeah you're too good to be true
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You're too good to be true love
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, it's new love
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah you're too good to be true
MIRACLE lyrics - Boys Like Girls
(I need a miracle)
Well, I'm still hung up on a younger love, yeah
Get something good and fuck it up, oh
But I was just too drunk to fight for us that morning
You left just like you said you'd leave, yeah
Guess you got tired of me bein' me, oh
I'm still not better than I used to be, least I'm honest (Mhm)
I need somebody
I wish you were that somebody
I don't need just anybody
Need somebody like you, yeah
I need somebody
Come back and be that somebody
The parallel to my body
Yeah, somebody like you, yeah
How do I, how do I get you out of my head?
I need a miracle
How did I, how did I let you out of my bed?
Can't balance the chemicals
And I'm falling 'cause I miss you
I'm not calling, but I want to
How do I, how do I get you out of my head?
I need a miracle
You show up when my eyes are closed, yeah
I wake up and I'm still alone, oh
Yeah, all the energy and time I've blown
Just standing in my room, starin' at the wall
Thinking 'bout the things I've done and how
I need somebody
I wish you were that somebody
I don't need just anybody
Need somebody like you, yeah
I need somebody
Come back and be that somebody
The parallel to my body
Yeah, somebody like you, yeah
How do I, how do I get you out of my head?
I need a miracle
How did I, how did I let you out of my bed?
Can't balance the chemicals
And I'm falling 'cause I miss you
I'm not calling, but I want to
How do I, how do I get you out of my head?
I need a miracle
(I need a miracle, I need a miracle)
(I need a miracle, I need a miracle)
I need somebody
I wish you were that somebody
I don't need just anybody
Need somebody like you, yeah
I need somebody
Come back and be that somebody
The parallel to my body
Yeah, somebody like you
How do I, how do I get you out of my head?
Mm, yeah, I need a miracle
How did I, how did I let you out of my bed?
It's so hard to balance the chemicals
And I'm falling 'cause I miss you
I'm not calling yet, but I want to
How do I, how do I get you out of my head?
I need a miracle (Oh, I need a miracle)
I need a miracle (I need a miracle)
I need a miracle
CRY lyrics - Boys Like Girls
You called me up in pieces tonight
Tears were fallin' from your pretty eyes, terrified
You said you needed someone to talk to
Life backs you in a corner sometimes
Frozen under all these city lights, paralyzed
And you don't know how you can pull through
It's gonna be alright
'Cause I know that it's hard
And I know that it hurts, but I
Swear it's getting better all the time
'Cause I can be your stars
And I can be your moon tonight
And I can be your shoulder when you cry
Cry
Go ahead and cry
I know you're feelin' broken and scared
You're feelin' like there's no one who really cares
Everyone's fake and the world is just too big
And time, it feels like it's been runnin' right out
The words are flyin' outta your pretty mouth, settle down
Lean on me and rest your eyelids
You know I got you now
'Cause I know that it's hard
And I know that it hurts, but I
I swear it's getting better all the time
'Cause I can be your stars
And I can be your moon tonight
And I can be your shoulder when you cry
Cry
Go ahead and cry
'Cause I know that it's hard
And I know that it hurts, but I
I swear it's getting better all the time
'Cause I can be your stars
And I can be your moon tonight
And I can be your shoulder when you cry
MONDAY MORNING lyrics - Boys Like Girls
"Temperatures are chilly this morning, a lot of 20's north and west of town. As cold as 21 in Orange, below freezing in Worcester as well. Notice to the South, you get down to Taunton and New Bedford, Falmouth..."
"I mean our songs like a journal, you know, and, uh. When you write in a journal..."
"Thank you! Proud of people there in Boston..."
"On April 23, 1995, I hit rock bottom. I woke up with little memory of the night before and even less hope for the days to come."
PHYSICAL lyrics - Boys Like Girls
(I, I, I, I, yeah)
Too young, too dumb, too cool to care
(And I really want it, yeah, and I really want it, want it)
Gold wedding ring, high heels, and menswear
(It ain't right, but it's in my head)
One look at me, you said it all
(That you really want it, yeah, that you really want it, want it)
No strings attached, no frills or fanfare
Not tonight, she said
Come, let's get physical (Yeah)
Don't be so cynical
When you move, it's a miracle
And I, I, I, I
Oh, you're unbelievable (Ah)
I really need you, girl
But just one touch is criminal
And I, I, I, I (Yeah)
Touch me, take me, I'll be your muse
(And I really want it, yeah, and I really want it, want it)
Don't you need someone to love, someone to misuse?
(Tell me lies, let me in your head)
Body talk's clear enough to know
(That you really want it, yeah, that you really want it, want it)
Well, my guilty conscience loves the abuse
Wanna try, and she said
Come, let's get physical (Yeah)
Don't be so cynical
When you move, it's a miracle
And I, I, I, I
Oh, you're unbelievable (Ah)
I really need you, girl
But just one touch is criminal
And I, I, I, I (Woo)
Come, let's get physical
Don't be so cynical
When you move, it's a miracle
And I, I, I, I
Oh, you're unbelievable
I really need you, girl
But just one touch is criminal
And I, I, I, I want
Too young, too dumb, too cool to care
(And I really want it, yeah, and I really want it, want it)
Beautiful dream, beautiful nightmare
Say goodbye (Ow)
Come, let's get physical (Ooh)
Don't be so cynical
When you move, it's a miracle
And I, I, I, I
Oh, you're unbelievable
And I really need you, girl
But just one touch is criminal
And I, I, I, I want
Come, let's get physical (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't be so cynical
When you move, it's a miracle (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
And I, I, I, I
Oh, you're unbelievable (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
And I really need you, girl
But just one touch is criminal (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
And I, I, I, I want
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Mm, let's get physical
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
HOURGLASS lyrics - Boys Like Girls
Fast car on the highway
Take me back in time
Red lips like a vampire
Blinded by the light
Take me somewhere we used to go, darlin'
Hold me into the night
'Cause you remind me of a girl I knew
Back when the world was small and life was easy
In an hourglass we can't break through
You are the only one who can release me
Fadin' off the coast line
Infinite and young
And she smiles, staring outside
What have I become?
Take me somewhere we used to go, darlin'
Hold me into the night
'Cause you remind me of a girl I knew
Back when the world was small and life was easy
In an hourglass we can't break through
You are the only one who can release me
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Take me somewhere we used to go, darlin'
Hold me into the night
'Cause you remind me of a girl I knew
Back when the world was small and life was easy
In an hourglass we can't break through
You are the only one who can release me
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
'Cause you remind me of a girl I knew
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Back when the world was small and life was easy
STORY OF A LIFETIME lyrics - Boys Like Girls
I wanna feel you when you shake your thunder under my skin
I wanna feel your strike of lightnin' come and whip me again
Heard if we can climb the continental, baby, we can get high
The sky is fallin' like a storm that's rollin' into my bones
This place'll leave you soakin' wet and get you outta your clothes
Crossin' through Jordan begs the question, "Are you ready to die?"
Maybe I'm homesick, maybe just tired
Maybe this broomstick'll loosen the wires
I pray for a message, I pray for a sign
I pray for the passion to stoke the fire
Carry me, carry me
Show me thrill or fantasy
I'm feelin' lost, feelin' weak, feelin' bind
Carry me, carry me
'Cause I've been walkin' in my sleep
Feelin' scared, feelin' free, I'm feelin' fine
Story of a lifetime
I saw the roses, saw the shield, they marked the spot with a cross
Ridin' through miles and miles of pavement fuckin' littered with loss
Out here, the angels put on headphones every time that you cry
They say the badlands get inside you like you're somethin' possessed
Barbed-wire fences line the road, remind you that you're a guest
Best chance at Heaven I've been told is screamin' up at the sky
Yeah, well, maybe I'm homesick, maybe just tired
Maybe this oil slick'll stick to the tires
I pray for a message, I pray for a sign
I pray for the passion but don't got the passion
So carry me, carry me
Show me thrill or fantasy
I'm feelin' lost, feelin' weak, feelin' bind
Carry me, carry me
'Cause I've been walkin' in my sleep
Feelin' scared, feelin' free, I'm feelin' fine
Story of a lifetime
Na, na, na, na, na
Somebody carry me
Na, na, na, na, na
Somebody carry me
Na, na, na, na, na
Somebody carry me
Na, na, na, na, na
Well, carry me, carry me
Show me thrill or fantasy
I'm feelin' lost, feelin' weak, feelin' bind
Carry me, carry me
'Cause I've been walkin' in my sleep
Feelin' scared, feelin' free, I'm feelin' fine
Story of a lifetime (Story of a lifetime)
Story of a lifetime (Story of a lifetime)
BROOKLYN STATE OF MIND lyrics - Boys Like Girls
All the crosses on the highway (All the crosses on the highway)
Make a runway in the street (Make a runway in the street)
And just like any given Tuesday, pull up at the valet
"Take me to my seat" ("Take me to my seat")
I was born inside a black car (I was born inside a black car)
Little bag under my coat (Little bag under my coat)
We're counting paper in the backyard, throw it off the deep end
See if it'll float (See if it'll float)
Oh, 'cause I want it all, oh, oh, oh yeah
Closing time
But the night is still brand new
Ain't no stopping me now
One sip, tie up my laces
Got all the right friends in all the wrong places
In my state of mind
It'd be easier on you if I wasn't around
One hit, off to the races
Got all the right friends in all the wrong places, ah-ooh
Talking money in the men's room (Talking money in the men's room)
Pockets lined with gasoline (Pockets lined with gasoline)
Leather jackets like a costume
Soaked in sweat and perfume, but isn't that the dream? (But isn't that the dream?)
Driver, take me back to Brooklyn (Driver, take me back to Brooklyn)
Hit the pedal, cross the bridge (Hit the pedal, cross the bridge)
I think tonight should be a good one
You're one hell of a women for one son of a bitch (One son of a bitch)
Oh, 'cause you know I want it all, oh, oh
I fucking want it all, oh, oh, oh yeah
Closing time
But the night is still brand new
Ain't no stopping me now
One sip, tie up my laces
Got all the right friends in all the wrong places
In my state of mind
It'd be easier on you if I wasn't around
One hit, off to the races
Got all the right friends in all the wrong places, ah-ooh
'Cause you know I want it all, oh, oh
I fucking want it all, oh, oh, oh
It's closing time
But the night is still brand new
Ain't no stopping me now
But one sip, tie up my laces
Got all the right friends in all the wrong places
In my state of mind
It'd be easier on you if I wasn't around
One hit, I'm off to the races
Got all the right friends in all the wrong places, ah-ooh
All the right friends in all the wrong places, do you?
Woah, all the right friends in all the wrong places, I do
LOST IN WONDERLAND lyrics - Boys Like Girls
I'm only here for one night
The night is almost gone
You pull me close just one more time
You say, "I'm barely hangin' on"
The parking lot is empty
They're packin' up the trucks
The ground is trashed with ticket stubs
And the crew is gettin' drunk
You said, "When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?"
And I said, "Maybe I'll see you in Brooklyn
Maybe I'll see you in France
As long as the waves keep on rollin' in
Things don't always go the way they're planned
Maybe I'll see you in Jersey
Maybe next year in Japan
Sometimes it's so hard to find a friend
You're the only one that just might understand"
I'm lost in wonderland
Some call me a gypsy
The towns all look the same
And sometimes when I close my eyes
I almost see your face
I'm losing my perspective
Reality is gone
I'm sorry that I didn't call
I know it's been so long
And you said, "When will I see you again?
When will I see you again?"
And I said, "Maybe I'll see you in Brooklyn
Or maybe I'll see you in France
But as long as the waves keep on rolling in
Things don't always go the way they're planned
Maybe I'll see you in Jersey
Maybe next year in Japan
Sometimes it's so hard to find a friend
You're the only one that just might understand"
Ooh
I'm lost in wonderland
Ooh
Lost in wonderland
Maybe I'll see you in Portland
Or maybe I'll see you in Bend
As long as the stars keep on shootin', yeah
Who knows how this story's gonna end?
Baby, I'll see you in Boston
Back where this whole thing began
Sometimes it's so hard to find a friend
You're the only one that just might understand
You're the only one that just might understand
Well, you're the only one that just might understand
Ooh
Lost in wonderland
Ooh
Lost in wonderland
