Facing The Blank Page (2011)











Sonny Get Your Gun lyrics - Hanson

Awoken by the sunlight
Even though I shut the shade last night
Someone cast a shadow through the peephole, looking in
Your touch makes the goose bumps roll like thunder outside
I got the feeling that the storm is about to arrive

Sonny get your gun
It may be over for you and me
If we have to run
You will be running next to me

Studying the cracks on the wall
Waiting for the ax to fall
Someone keeps on calling on the phone
Message lights blinking on
Listen for the footsteps
Distracted by you slipping on your sundress
You can't distract the man that's standing at the door

Sonny get your gun
It may be over for you and me
If we have to run
You will be running next to me

If we have to run
Sonny get your gun
Sonny get your gun

Dust on the lampshade
Fear on the floor
Here in the moment you learn things you'd like to ignore
My shaking hand reminds me that I'm not that tough
But for you Sonny, I know I'd give it all up
I'm never gonna let you go

Sonny get our gun
It may be over for you and me
If we have to run
You will be running next to me
I'm never gonna let you go

Sunny Day lyrics - Hanson

Have you been running out of places to hide?
Have you been looking for a reason to try?
Maybe it's just about time that you turn it around tonight
You gotta pack your bags and drive to a sunny day

Has the daily grind been taking its toll?
Are you sick and tired of everybody you know?
It's not a crime to take a little time and head on down the road
You gotta pack your bags and drive to a sunny day
To a sunny day

You gotta pack your bags and drive
You gotta to pack your bags and drive to a sunny day

Are you on a losing streak missing every chance to peek?
You turn around and all you see is grey
Sick of the run around
Here in this same old town
You gotta pack your bags and drive to a sunny day

Are you on a losing streak, missing every chance to peek?
Turn around and all you see is grey
Sick of the run around, here in the same old town
You gotta pack your bags and drive to a sunny day

You gotta pack your bags and drive
You gotta pack your bags and drive to a sunny day
You gotta pack your bags and drive
You gotta pack your bags and drive to a sunny day

Time Baby Take It lyrics - Hanson

You won't find me out there chasing the strays
Cause I feel like a king every sing day
If you don't know quite what words to say
Baby that's all right cause it's worth the wait
We can slow it down and we'll figure out the rest
No need to talk, talk, talk, til we're running out of breath

You got time baby take it
Time baby take it
You know I'm here
You got time baby take it
Time baby take it
You know I'm here

Well I don't wanna be a ball on your ch-chain chain
I've got no plans to ask you to change
know what I said, it was a toss of the dice
But a love like this, it doesn't come twice
Some other guy may have left you a mess
So we can talk, talk, talk till we figure out the rest

You've got time baby take it
Time baby take it
You know I'm here
You've got time baby take it
Time baby take it
You know I'm here

I'm not sending out an S.O.S
Our relationship is not in distress
I've got to get this out of my chest
You've got time

Love like this well it doesn't come twice
We should talk, talk, talk til we make it right
Yeah

You've got time
You know I'm here
You've got time baby take it
Time baby take it
You know
You've got time baby take it
Time baby take it
You know I'm here
You've got time baby take it
Time baby take it you know
You've got time

Bittersweet lyrics - Hanson

So much for just you and me
We gave that life up more than once
The simple things that used to be, so easy just the two of us
Change can be bittersweet
The sweeter things, I'd never see without you

June bugs and pickup trucks is the life I lead these days
And sometimes it gets to be too much
I would never change it
And in everything I see your face, the beauty of a mother's grace
I love you

Everyday people just fall apart
For no other reason, than one stops trying and one stops loving anymore
Who will fight for us when the seems start coming out
I will
'Cause I love you

Looking forward to growing old and watching you turn grey
And if you don't mind I would like to go first
Because without you I wouldn't live a day
In everything you've given me a life I could have never dreamed
I love you

I love you
I love you more
I love you

Get Out Of My Heart lyrics - Hanson

Get out of my heart
Get out of my mind
Get out of my bedroom
I don't want you tonight

You're making me smile
You're making me try
And you're making me hope and wish that we could be together
All over again

You can just take a look at yourself
Maybe then you'd see you should leave me in hell

Get out of my heart
Come down from my window
Cause you're giving me everything that I had ever wanted
And it's making me sick
Tell me baby

What do you want, what do you want?
What do you want?
Cause I just want you to

Get out of my heart
Get out of my heart
Just leave me in my misery

You should just take a look at yourself
Then you'd see you should leave me in hell
Oh yeah

You got into my heart
You got into my soul
Now all the walls I built around myself
Are all covered in holes

I can't get you out of my heart
I can't get you out of my heart
I can't get you out of my heart
I can't get you, get you out of my heart

Shout It Out (2010)




















Waiting For This lyrics - Hanson

Without a doubt girl you're ahead of your time
Let's go out on the town
Give it a piece of your mind
You've been going round and round in your head
So don't think twice
You'll end up worse than you've been

Cause I know that you've been thinkin' bout it
And I know they think you're out of your mind
All of this time
I know that you've been waiting for this

So come on shout it out so everybody can hear
There's no need to rhyme it The message is clear
You know I can't ignore
So I don't know what you're waiting for
But you're trying hard not to show it

Cause I know that you've been thinkin' bout it
Well I know they think you're out of your mind
All of this time
I know that you've been waiting for this
Come on come on
I know that you've been waiting for this

Can't figure out how we made it this far
If you don't mind me sayin',
there's no sense in waiting so
Shout it out, shout it out
Shout if out, shout it out
You can't deny it, you can't deny it

Cause I know that you've been thinkin' bout it
And I know they think you're out of your mind
All of this time
I know that you've been waiting so
You can't deny
I know that you've been waiting for this
I know that you've been waiting for this

Thinking 'Bout Somethin' lyrics - Hanson

Well I gave you love, you know it
So when did you outgrow it
And decide that you would find another man?

Well you've been out there shakin
The tail the boys are chasing
When you get home you think I'll be the bigger man

I've been thinkin bout somethin
I've been thinkin bout somethin other than you

I ignored your reputation
Cause you send my heart racing
You think I would always be the fool

Well I've run out of patience
For this sticky situation
You won't find me crying that we're through

I've been thinkin bout somethin
I've been thinkin bout somethin other you
It's sad to say, but baby everyday
I've been thinkin bout somethin
I've been thinkin bout somethin other than you
It's sad to say, hey

Well if you're not too proud to beg
I can give you some respect
But the tune you hum is never gonna change

You didn't have to do what you did
But I thank you it ended like this
Cause the love I've got it better than what you gave

Well I've got girls in line
Waiting for these arms of mine
Listen up to what I say

I've been thinkin bout somethin
I've been thinkin bout somethin other than you
It's sad to say, but baby everyday
I've been thinkin bout somethin
I've been thinkin bout somethin other than you

Hey, hey, I took my best shot
I've had enough of your tainted love you give me everyday
I tried to limit the loney nights
But I'm done getting played, c'mon c'mon yeah
I'm not gonna make that same mistake

You've been out there foolin, but I'm not thinkin bout you
I've been getting the love that moves me, while you've been getting around

You've been out there foolin, but I'm not thinkin bout you
I've been getting the love that moves me, while you've been getting around

You've been out there foolin, but I'm not thinkin bout you
I've been getting the love that moves me, while you've been getting around

Kiss Me When You Come Home lyrics - Hanson

You may give me gray hairs before my time
I'll be happy just sitting on the passenger side
'Cause I live for, you and me and a lonely drive

You can stay out late
You can burn the candle
You can contemplate, but won't you kiss me good?
I will tell you straight, if it's too hard to handle
All I've got to say, is won't you kiss me when you come home?
Kiss me when you come home, won't you kiss me when you come home?
Yah yah yah yaah
On my lips
Kiss me when you come home, won't you kiss me when you come home?
Yah yah yah yaah

It gets tought, but we've picked up a lot of things along the way
You know that, when I get mad, I don't mean a word that I say
Sometimes I need more, than what's left at the end of the day

You can stay out late
You can burn the candle
You can contemplate, but won't you kiss me good?
I will tell you straight, if it's too hard to handle
All I've got to say, is won't you kiss me when you come home?
Kiss me when you come home, won't you kiss me when you come home?
Yah yah yah yaah
On my lips

Sometimes reason, doesn't line up with the rhyme
With a wash and a sew, the rips and the frays will come out ok in time
'Cause I long for, you and me and a lonely drive.

You can stay out late
You can burn the candle
You can contemplate, but won't you kiss me good?
I will tell you straight, if it's too hard to handle
All I've got to say, is won't you kiss me when you come home?
Kiss me when you come home, won't you kiss me when you come home?
Yah yah yah yaah
I said on my lips now
Kiss me when you come home

Carry You There lyrics - Hanson

Well I don't care what you say
Don't have use for words anyway
You don't need a Cadillac
'Cause I'll be waiting with my bare back
To carry you there

Try
You don't have to be afraid to just rely
On someone to hold the weight part of the time
It's alright
It can get too much to handle by yourself
If you can't do it alone I know you will say
I don't know what's at stake or what it takes

'Cause I don't care what you say
Don't have use for words anyway
You don't need a Cadillac
'Cause I'll be waiting with my bare back
To carry you there

Turn around
And you just might see the good you've left behind
But you're all caught up with words still left to find
It's never enough

So slow down
And the root of what you're feeling might appear
All the pushing up the hill has brought you here
And you're used up, but you lie
You tell me you are fine

But I don't care what you say
Don't have use for words anyway
You don't need a Cadillac
'Cause I'll be waiting
Well I'll be waiting
To carry you there

So don't be too proud
I'm holding my hand out
You've been my friend on darker days
I'll still be there
Despite your despair
I don't really care what you say

I'll carry you there
I will carry you there [x10]

Give A Little lyrics - Hanson

When she walked in, with her painted lips
Did she tease you for your flirty quips?
Did she leave you frozen with the wrong words chosen?
You gotta show her why she can't resist
Make her blush when you put your hand on her hips
She's gonna keep on playing until you stop chasing
So wrap your arms around her body
Tell her all she needs to know

Give a little heart and soul
Let your body lose control
Give a little oh oh ooh.
Give a little
Wrap your arms around and give a little

You gotta show her, when she can't decide
You gotta hold her, with that look in your eyes
When you move in close, take your time
Lave an empty shoulder, let her move in closer
And wrap your arms around her body
Tell her all she needs to know

Give a little heart and soul
Let your body lose control
Give a little oh oh ooh.
Give a little
Wrap your arms around and give a little

She love to keep you in suspense, but you know she just wants to dance

Give a little heart and soul
Let her body lose control
Give a little oh oh ooh
Just give a little
Wrap your arms around and give a little

Make It Out Alive lyrics - Hanson

The more I love you, the more I'm lovin' you
The more I need you, the more I'm needing to.
I surrender, what I thought I knew
One look in your eyes, I know my games are through
You've been holding on
And I've been holding back

We may not make it out alive
What does it matter if you're here by my side?
We may not make it out alive, what does it matter?
It's just a matter of time

Reservation, is sneaking up on me
Was I mistaken, to let you get to me?
I'm overtaken, in ways I've never knew
So please don't break me, we've still got a ways to go
We're still holding on
Just hoping for the best

We may not make it out alive
What does it matter if you're here by my side?
We may not make it out alive, what does it matter?
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time

These memories, that we've got
May not amount to much, but I'm so glad we've got 'em
We cannot be, what we're not
But it's too late to get out or shed a tear for doubt
We're just holding on, just bracing for the worst

We may not make it out alive (we may not make it out alive)
What does it matter if you're here by my side?
We may not make it out alive, what does it matter?
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time

And I Waited lyrics - Hanson

Is there something wrong with the way you feel?
'Cause you've been acting like you're overloaded
Been going on like, you got something to prove
You better keep it in mind
Mayve it's too hot, out on the black top, nobody else is gonna save you
You're pretty uptight, for being downtown.
I've been all up all night.

And I waited
Waited for something to arrive
Gotta keep this beat alive, but she keeps me satisfied
And I waited
Waited for something to be real
When it's pouding in your ear, doesn't matter what you feel
Where do we go from here?
The future's so unclear
You're such a doll my dear

Well there's nothing wrong, with the way you look
But you've been acting like you're up to no good
You're playing me like I've got nothing to lose
You better keep it in line
I'm not gonna get off, until the last stop, and nobody else is gonna save me
Turn the heat up, for the meltdown
I've been up all night

And I waited
Waited for something to arrive
Gotta keep this beat alive, but she can't be satisfied
And I waited
Waited for something to be real
When it's pouding in your ear, doesn't matter what you fear
Where do we go from here?
The future's so unclear
You're such a doll my dear

And I waited!

Use Me Up lyrics - Hanson

Somebody let me down
Somebody show me love
I wouldn't care much either way
I'd rather the sticks and stones
Than dragging the ball and chain
Of what if the world won't take me?
Even if the holes should crack
And even if the blood flows red
Nothing could be worse than numb

So please, use me up
I just want anyone to use me up
Cause no one ever does
Use me up

I've carried it all too long
The fear of the pain it brings
Feeling the panic building up
I'd rather the broken heart
Than live in the emptiness
Of what if the world won't save me?
Even if the bow should break
Even if the blood runs cold
Nothing could be worse than numb

Please, use me up
I just want anyone to use me up
Cause no one ever does
Use me up
Use me up

Treat me somewhere cruel
You can throw me away
As long as I feel it
Show me something real
You can deceive me
I am yours to use
Use me up
Use me up
Use me up

These Walls lyrics - Hanson

These walls, too hard to climb
And that ladder is too hard to find
I don't want to be here anymore

These roads, too hard to walk
With the things you've been saying
I don't even want to talk
I don't want to wind up on the floor

I don't want to be here anymore

Fair amount of disbelief
These walls are killing me
I don't want to be here anymore

Speak your mind or speak your peace
I swear we're sinking deep
I don't want to wind up on the floor

I don't want to be here anymore

The sky is falling all over again
Just another dis-conclusion
Another disillusion
The sky is falling all over again
Am I losing my composure?
Way too much exposure to compromise
I can't take on these walls

You've been yelling up into the red
But you haven't heard a word I've said
I don't want to be here anymore

"Give it all I've got" can be bittersweet
You think everyone's beneath your feet
I don't want to wind up on the floor

I don't want to be here anymore

The sky is falling all over again
Just another day's conclusion
Another disillusion
The sky is falling all over again
Am I losing my composure?
Way too much exposure to compromise
I can't take on these walls

They're too hard to climb
These walls
I can't take on these walls [x2]

Musical Ride lyrics - Hanson

Come
on this musical ride
with me

It might just change the life you think you're gonna lead
If I'm right you might just stop and see
I'll take your breath away
Show you more than you have known
And everyday
I'll give you all this, nothing, and more

Why are you waiting?
What is left to know?
There is no reason we should be standing still
Pick the destination and I'll pick the road

I'll take your breath away
Show you more than you have known
And everyday
I'll give you all this, nothing, and more
I'll give you all this, nothing, and more
ooo yeah

Don't make your mind up just yet
There's still so much for you to see
And every time you waste a moment,
You waste make believe
I see it taking you home
You must let go before it starts
This confrontation you keep feeling is your heart

It's simple
But somehow
Letting go's the hardest part

Come
on this musical ride
with me

It might just change the life you think you're gonna lead
If I'm right you might just stop and see
It might just change your life
It might just blow your mind

Don't make your mind up just yet
There's still so much for you to see
And every time you waste a moment,
You waste make believe
I see it taking you home
You must let go before it starts
This confrontation you keep feeling is your heart

It's simple
But somehow
Letting go's the hardest part

Voice In The Chorus lyrics - Hanson

All this time
Ive been bearing it alone
Never had a single doubt in my mind
You passed me by
When I was barely hanging on
But you were there when I was doing just fine

Caroline

Gonna take your own advice
Won't think twice
Because you are not worth my time

'Cause you'll be there waiting when I'm back on top
And you'll be there saying you gave me what I've got

You're just another voice in the chorus
You're just another voice in the chorus
Singing, just another voice in the chorus
Say you knew it all along

You're just another voice in the chorus
You're just another voice in the chorus
Singing, just another voice in the chorus
Bet you knew it all along

Tell me where you have been all this time,
Caroline

Big surprise
You're the last one to arrive
And the first to cut in line
Sacrifice
Something you don't know about
But something I can't get around
In my life

'Cause you'll be there waiting when I'm back on top
And you'll be there saying you gave me what I've got

But you're just another voice in the chorus
You're just another voice in the chorus
Singing, just another voice in the chorus
Say you knew it all along

You're just another voice in the chorus
You're just another voice in the chorus
Singing, just another voice in the chorus
Bet you knew it all along

Tell me where you have been all this time,
Caroline
ooo

woah woah
woah woah
woah woah
woah woah

'Cause you've never really known
Until you're all on your own
And the words come out all wrong
Oh you've never really known
Oh you never really know
Til its dark and its cold
There's no one to call you home
Oh you've never really known
Your true colors will be shown
When you're out all alone
And everything comes out all wrong
When you find it you will know

Oh oh

You're just another voice in the chorus

You're just another voice in the chorus

Bet you knew it all along

woah woah
woah woah
woah woah
(knew it all knew it all knew it all along)

Me Myself And I lyrics - Hanson

It must be the end of the road
It must be the end of you and I
And forever too
Walking the last bridge alone
We've given up on the good times
And the bad we knew

When I'm alone in a cold, dark room, well
There's still someone
That I can tell my troubles to

Me, myself, and I will never be alone
We'll find a way to get along
And we'll be fine
When all that's left is me, myself, and I
Myself and I will never be alone
We will find a way to get along
And we'll be fine
When all that's left is me, myself, and I

Mmh

When did it start getting old?
When did it stop being worth the time
Just to see it through?
I don't wanna get used to 'It's over'
We've already said too much
To make it new

When I'm alone in a cold, dark room, well
There's still someone
That I can tell my troubles to

Me, myself, and I will never be alone
We'll find a way to get along
And we'll be fine
When all that's left is me, myself, and I
Myself and I will never be alone
We will find a way to get along
And we'll be fine
When all that's left is me, myself, and I

Well it's hard to see you don't belong to me
'Cause I gave you the best part of my life
Well, I tried to be everything that you want me to be
But I don't have to give you reasons why
'Cause all that's left is me, myself, and I

I'm not gonna try to forget
Maybe happiness Is worth the chance
Of a bitter end?
'Cus here at the end of the road
I don't really care who is right
I'll give you the last word tonight

'Cause me, myself, and I will never be alone
We'll find a way to get along
And we'll be fine
When all that's left is me, myself, and I
Myself and I will never be alone
We will find a way to get along
And we'll be fine
When all that's left is me, myself, and I

La do do, la do do

This is the jam!
And I don't know where we're going

Bad Solution lyrics - Hanson

Oh yeah
Well you've got to move it
Or you're gonna lose it
Time won't always be there on your side
Well you've got to choose it
If you're gonna prove it
Change is gonna come you can't deny

What I want to know is what choice you're gonna make
'Cause every good debate has a bad solution, hey hey hey

You've got to move it (move it)

Who took the first shot?
Who started the riot?
I thought we were marching peacefully
We got the music
But we've got to use it, oh
Shouldn't we be dancing in the street?

I want to know (oh oh) what choice you're going to make
Every good debate has a bad solution

What you choose to see
Might define your fate
Every good debate has a bad solution, whoa-oh
A bad solution, hey hey hey
(Whoa-oh)

A bad solution, a bad solution
You've got to move it, move it
A bad solution, a bad solution
You've got to move it, move it
A bad solution

What I want to know is what choice you're going to make
Every good debate has a bad solution, hey hey hey
Bad solution
It's a bad solution
It's a bad solution
Yeah
It's a bad solution
Whoa-yeah

Ordinary Words lyrics - Hanson

Listen to me now
And try to hear my words
I'm gonna tell the truth
Even if it hurts
And you don't understand me
And I cant make you whole
I've been too demanding
That's why I've got to go

Oh
Still we keep on pushing, pushing til there's nothing left
And everything you say is something we will soon regret

Well there's a world beyond these walls
Yeah, I know it, feel it every day
And the love we used to have
Well it's gone, it's gone away
And the life I think I need
Isn't this one and it's breaking me
But there's no time for ordinary words

Give it to me straight
So I can feel your pain
Nothing lasts forever
Life don't work that way
I know you love to hate me
But it's too late for that

Oh
Still we keep on pushing, pushing til there's nothing left
And everything we say is something we will soon regret

Well there's a world beyond these walls
Yeah, I know it, feel it every day
And the love we used to have
Well it's gone, it's gone away
And the life I think I need
Isn't this one and it's breaking me
There's no time for ordinary words

Oh
Still we keep on pushing, pushing til there's nothing left
And everything we say is something we will soon regret

Well there's a world beyond these walls
Yeah, I know it feel it every day
And the love we used to have
Well it's gone, it's gone away
And the life I think I need isn't this one and it's breaking me
But there's no time for ordinary words
No, there's no time for ordinary words

Too Young To Kill lyrics - Hanson

It was only a case of passion spurned
We were only sixteen when the crime occurred
We fled the scene in a stolen truck
And we got away, beginner's luck

We hit the road as the sun came up
Seven hundred miles by the time we stopped
After that night it was all downhill
I was too young to kill

Her father said our love would never last
And what you're feeling now soon will pass
And Jenny's got a plan to finish school
So you better give it up now, you little fool

Well, he timed his fist and my face he struck
Jenny yelled "No!" as I tried to get up
I pulled my gun and his face went pale
Son, you're too young to kill

So we got away Scott-free
So we thought
And outside Santa Fe is where we got caught
And as Jenny stepped in front of me
Well a shot rang out
She fell to her knees

Got my diploma at the county jail
Only eighteen but I've written my will
Headline read in the Daily Mail, he's too young to kill
He's too young to kill

Live Forever lyrics - Hanson

You won't live forever
And this won't last very long

A life begins with lust
Light is on, you must
And on that day you are a child
But nothing else above
Find the ones you love
They might save you when you're old

Live the way you must
But it's twenty-one or bust
You only get one chance at bat
Even great men crash
But they take the unworn path
Never speaking of the loss

Don't ask for much
'Cause you won't live forever
And this won't last very long
You won't live forever
For all your time and trouble
You won't amount to much
You're gonna end up on the sand, dust

Stand Up, Stand Up (2009)












These Walls lyrics - Hanson

These walls, too hard to climb
And that ladder is too hard to find
I don't want to be here anymore

These roads, too hard to walk
With the things you've been saying
I don't even want to talk
I don't want to wind up on the floor

I don't want to be here anymore

Fair amount of disbelief
These walls are killing me
I don't want to be here anymore

Speak your mind or speak your peace
I swear we're sinking deep
I don't want to wind up on the floor

I don't want to be here anymore

The sky is falling all over again
Just another dis-conclusion
Another disillusion
The sky is falling all over again
Am I losing my composure?
Way too much exposure to compromise
I can't take on these walls

You've been yelling up into the red
But you haven't heard a word I've said
I don't want to be here anymore

"Give it all I've got" can be bittersweet
You think everyone's beneath your feet
I don't want to wind up on the floor

I don't want to be here anymore

The sky is falling all over again
Just another dis-conclusion
Another disillusion
The sky is falling all over again
Am I losing my composure?
Way too much exposure to compromise
I can't take on these walls

They're too hard to climb
These walls
I can't take on these walls [x2]

Carry You There lyrics - Hanson

Well I don't care what you say
Don't have use for words anyway
You don't need a Cadillac
'Cause I'll be waiting with my bare back
To carry you there

Try
You don't have to be afraid to just rely
On someone to hold the weight part of the time
It's alright
It can get too much to handle by yourself
If you can't do it alone I know you will say
I don't know what's at stake or what it takes

'Cause I don't care what you say
Don't have use for words anyway
You don't need a Cadillac
'Cause I'll be waiting with my bare back
To carry you there

Turn around
And you just might see the good you've left behind
But you're all caught up with words still left to find
It's never enough

So slow down
And the root of what you're feeling might appear
All the pushing up the hill has brought you here
And you're used up, but you lie
You tell me you are fine

But I don't care what you say
Don't have use for words anyway
You don't need a Cadillac
'Cause I'll be waiting
Well I'll be waiting
To carry you there

So don't be too proud
I'm holding my hand out
You've been my friend on darker days
I'll still be there
Despite your despair
I don't really care what you say

I'll carry you there
I will carry you there [x10]

Use Me Up lyrics - Hanson

Somebody let me down
Somebody show me love
I wouldn't care much either way

I'd rather the sticks and stones
Than dragging the ball and chain
Of what if the world won't take me

Even if the hole should crack
Even if the blood flows red
Nothing could be worse than numb
So please, use me up

I just want anyone
To use me up
'Cause no one ever does
Use me up

I've carried it all too long
The fear of the pain it brings
Feeling the panic building up

I'd rather the broken heart
Than live in the emptiness
Of what if the world won't take me

Even if the bow should break
Even if the blood runs cold
Nothing could be worse than numb
Please, use me up

I just want anyone
To use me up
'Cause no one ever does
Use me up
Use me up

Treat me some way cruel
You could throw me away
As long as I feel it
Show me something real
You can't deceive me
I am yours to use

Use me up [x3]

Waiting For This lyrics - Hanson

Without a doubt girl you're ahead of your time
Let's go out on the town
Give it a piece of your mind
You've been going round and round in your head
So don't think twice
You'll end up worse than you've been

Cause I know that you've been thinkin' bout it
And I know they think you're out of your mind
All of this time
I know that you've been waiting for this

So come on shout it out so everybody can hear
There's no need to rhyme it The message is clear
You know I can't ignore
So I don't know what you're waiting for
But you're trying hard not to show it

Cause I know that you've been thinkin' bout it
Well I know they think you're out of your mind
All of this time
I know that you've been waiting for this
Come on come on
I know that you've been waiting for this

Can't figure out how we made it this far
If you don't mind me sayin',
there's no sense in waiting so
Shout it out, shout it out
Shout if out, shout it out
You can't deny it, you can't deny it

Cause I know that you've been thinkin' bout it
And I know they think you're out of your mind
All of this time
I know that you've been waiting so
You can't deny
I know that you've been waiting for this
I know that you've been waiting for this

World's On Fire lyrics - Hanson

Standing cold and scared on top of the hill
Then came the moment when I lost my will
I prayed for mercy, please don't take me away
Voices in the distance, beautiful
Somebody's calling beyond control
Have you ever felt desperation?
This whole world is filled with loss
We will regret it when we sleep
Promises never meant to keep
When all of the shadows lead
As a good man's hiding a dream
Do they know that the world's on fire?

Time has a price we can't afford
An empty glass and an open door
You get what you paid for in sweat
And a voice says please don't forget

Do they know that the world's on fire?
Do they know that the time is now?
Do they know that you gotta stand up, stand up
Let your voice speak out
Do they know that it's time?

Caught in a maze you can't escape
The flickering lights, and the colored lens
The walls that we build just close in
Until we decide to begin
Are we distracted by the sun?
The gleaming jewels, and the beating drums
Is it going the distance we fear?
Have you heard that we're already here?

Do they know that the world's on fire?
Do they know that the time is now?
Do they know that you gotta stand up, stand up
Let your voice speak out
Do they know that the world's on fire?
Do they know that the time is here?
Do they know that you gotta stand up, stand up
Let your voice be clear
Do they know that it's time?

Some will say we've gone too far
We're on the edge and in too deep
Some will say we're too far gone
You can't erase the tragedy

I Can't Wait lyrics - Hanson

I can't wait
Well, I can't wait
Said, I can't wait
I won't miss you when you're gone
When you're gone

I've done my time, I've served it well
I didn't want to speak my mind
I held my tongue until the last shoe fell
I'm gonna put it on the line, oh
I'm not the only one

Saying, I can't wait
To be the one to knock you back off your feet again
So pack your bags and be on your way
I won't miss you when you're gone
I won't miss you

You made the rules of your dirty game
And you break them way too easily
You're always cruelest when you aim
The insults in your quiver at me
I'm not the only one, come on now

Saying, I can't wait
To be the one to knock you back off your feet again
So pack your bags and be on your way
I won't miss you when you're gone
Oh, I won't miss you when you're gone
When you're gone

I'm saying, I can't wait
To be the one to knock you back off your feet again
So pack your bags and be on your way
I won't miss you when you're gone, yeah
I can't wait
To be the one to knock you back off your feet again
To be the one to kick you down in the street again
So pack your bags and be on your way
I won't miss you when you're gone, yeah
Well, I won't miss you when you're gone, yeah
I won't miss you when you're gone
Said, I can't wait
Well, I can't wait
Well, I can't wait
Well, I can't wait
Oh, I won't miss you when you're gone

Wait Here For You lyrics - Hanson

Woke up early
To try and catch the rain
Across Pennsylvania
On a western bound train
All our pictures can't replace the things we've said
I don't know where we're going yet or where the tracks lead

I can't say what is waiting for you
At every stop
You blow my mind and change direction
The simple fact is I've fallen now so if you get off
I'm gonna wait here for you

I'm in Seattle
You're down in New Orleans
But that doesn't change much about the way I see things
I'll take the south bound
And meet you in between
There's no destination except where the tracks lead

I can't say what is waiting for you
At every step
You blow my mind and change direction
The simple fact is I've fallen now so if you get off
I'm gonna wait here for you

I can't get enough
It's only a touch
But it's breaking my heart
It's tearing me up
Are you in are you out
Are all of your doubts?
Taking you further
And further away

All I Have To Give lyrics - Hanson

Sitting here in a hotel room
Waking up in the afternoon
Its November 22nd so I've heard
We just talked 12 hours ago
But now I'm half way to New Mexico
Selling out our story for a dime

These words are all I have to give you
Tell me and I'll be just what you want
This is not a choice that I'm making
My life is all I have to give up

I recall our last conversation
Late last night in college station
Now Texas seems like a promise I can't keep
I told you I'd be home by Thanksgiving
But if I can't tell you what I'm feeling
When I show up it's not really me

These words are all I have to give you
And baby, I am wrong for what I've done
My heart once was yours for the taking
My life is all I have to give up
My life is all I have to give up

I recall like yesterday, the zydeco an the trumpets played
As we danced all night long in New Orleans
As I pulled you close to me, you said don't let go but now I see
That there's nothing left for us to go back to

These lies are all I have to give up
My life is all I have to give up

So as I say my last goodbye
In a letter that is hard to write
I think of all the things I never said
Like I'm sorry for all of the lies
And never seeing all that times
You kept me holding on to what we had

This life is all I have to give you
Tell me and I'll be just what you want
This is not a choice that I'm making
These words are all I have to give up
My life is all I have to give up

Take My Time lyrics - Hanson

I've never had a true obsession
But that's what you turned out to be
Spent hours reeling the days you're stealing
Well they might be the death of me

So take me alive, hold my breath, my heart beat inside
If you'll let me, I'll give you all that's worth taking
Take my time
Oh... to take my time, take my time

I'll never needed conversation
To feeling empty afternoon
Your touch, it wakes me
Your love, it makes me
Every moment with you ends to soon

So take me alive, take my breath, my heart beat inside
If you'll let me, I'll give you all that's worth taking
Take me alive, hold my breath, my heart beat inside
If you'll let me, I'll give you all that's worth taking
Oh... just take my time
To take my time...
Take my time...
Won't you take my time...

Devil's Nachos lyrics - Hanson

I met the devil at the Taco Bell
Said how ya doing, how's it burning in hell?
He said hot damn, give me a chance
I'll show you boy why the demons dance
Stop short and give me your price
I see the fire that is burning your eyes
He said listen son I'll sell it to you cheap
Sell you a bowl for the price of your soul

Devil's nachos
Too hot
Devil's nachos
Way too hot
Devil's nachos
They're not your nachos

He put the bowl on the table
Said take a bite if you think you're able
To bear the heat of a burning sun
In your stomach 'til the kingdom come
Right then
I stood straight
And took a chip
In my hand
And put the thing
On my tongue
And felt the tingle of my taste buds

Devil's nachos
Too hot
Devil's nachos
Way too hot
Devil's nachos
They're not your nachos
Devil's nachos
Too hot
Devil's nachos
Way too hot
Devil's nachos
They're not your nachos

I leaned close
So he could hear
Every word
Very clear
It's not hot
It's not warm
It don't sting
It don't burn
I won't sign on the dotted line
'Cause the contract says that I'll burn 'til the end of time
Hell must be frozen through
'Cause you're not the devil that I thought I knew
Devil's nachos
Too hot
Devil's nachos
Way too hot
Devil's nachos
They're not your nachos
Devil's nachos
Too hot
Devil's nachos
Way too hot
Devil's nachos
They're not your nachos

Take The Walk (2008)












Lay Me Down lyrics - Hanson

I'll never walk away from this
I'll pull you closely to my chest
With a father's breaking heart
I'll walk you one last time into the dark
There are no reasons to explain
A silent killer bears no blame
There are no answers though I pray
I die though this is not my grave

And I lay you down
Lay you down

I'll carry you child to a place where you can rest
Sweet tears that seep into the linens as I put you down to bed
It tears me into pieces watching you fight to fill your lungs with breath
There's no need to struggle
There's no need to struggle

I lay you down
Lay you down
Don't you cry no more
I'll lay me down
Lay me down

Mmm... Oh...
Well I'm not ready
I'm not ready for this
Oh, I'm not ready
I'm not ready for this

There are no branches from this soil
(There are no branches)
My broken spirit steals my voice
(My broken spirit)
I have no secrets to my name
(Secrets to my name)
Only the shadows hide my shame
(Only the shadows hide my shame)
And so if I lift you upon my shoulder
Inside a splintered wooden chest
To Avalon we line the streets
I only hope that you'll finally rest

I'm not ready for this

I'll lay you down
Lay you down
Don't you cry no more
I'll lay me down
Lay me down
I'd gladly lay me down
Lay me down

Follow Your Lead lyrics - Hanson

Oh, I'll follow your lead
Oh, I'll follow your lead
Oh, I'll follow your lead
Oh, I'll follow your lead
Oh, I'll follow your lead
Oh, I'll follow your lead
You know, I'll follow you
Through the crossroads

Pick up your shoulders
You are not a child
Don't need no natural born soldiers
It's not that kind of fight
There is no water
That can wash off this disease
If you'll just stand up
Then I'll follow your lead

So, get up and make it known
Never take a chance alone
I'll be there whatever your crossroads
I know it will take some time
I know it's gonna take its toll
All you gotta do is show me

And I'll follow your lead
Oh, I'll follow your lead
Oh, I'll follow your lead
You know, I'll follow you
Through the crossroads

So pull off your blinders
And pick up the pieces
It only gets harder
The longer you deny
You will discover
You got all that you need
Leave fear where you're standing
And I'll follow your lead

So, get up and make it known
Never take a chance alone
I'll be there whatever your crossroads
I know it will take some time
I know it's gonna take its toll
All you gotta do is show me

And I'll follow your lead
Oh, I'll follow your lead
Now, I'll follow your lead
Oh, I'll follow your lead
I'll follow your lead
Oh, I'll follow your lead
Now, I'll follow your lead
You know, I'll follow your lead
No, no

We can build it up
Build it up
Build it up until it's strong
And we can build it up
Build it up
Build it up when you're wrong
We can build it up
Build it up
Build it up until it's strong
We can build it up
Build it up
Build it up when you're wrong
Build it up, build it up
Build it up, build it up
Build it up, build it up
Build it up, build it up

You know, I'll follow your lead, no, no
So, get up and make it known (well, I'll follow your lead, oh)
Never take a chance alone (I'll follow your lead, you know)
I'll be there whatever your crossroads (I'll follow your lead, I'll follow your lead)
I know it will take some time (oh, I'll follow your lead, oh)
I know it's gonna take its toll (I'll follow your lead, oh)
All you gotta do is show me (I'll follow your lead, I'll follow your lead)
So, get up and make it known (well, I'll follow your lead, oh)
Never take a chance alone (I'll follow your lead, you know)
I'll be there whatever your crossroads (I'll follow your lead, I'll follow your lead)
I know it will take some time (oh, I'll follow your lead, oh)
I know it's gonna take its toll (I'll follow your lead, oh)
All you gotta do is show me (I'll follow your lead, no, no)
Oh

Where Did It Start lyrics - Hanson

Where did it start? Why?
What does it matter?
We're far beyond
The place that we started
No time of mind
To chase after fault
We know that time is so
Much of what's lost
To a child born
With something so wrong in his blood
A sickness that pumps through his veins
Through his heart
It's shameful if we only start when
We know that he sleeps in
A box in the third drawer

Where did it start?

Dare we try and wade
This muddy water
Fill this ocean of need
Bottle by bottle
Hallowed we stand
And watch this parade
Saturday morning
Down to the graves

Oh, somebody save us
Somebody stand up
It's carried away
Something must change
Somebody save us
How many more does it take?

Somebody save us
Somebody stand up
It's carried away
Something must change
Somebody save us
How many more will it take?

Oh...
Where did it start?
When does it stop?

I don't wanna get this wrong
Don't you see what's going on
I don't wanna turn you away
Until you know what's at stake

Oh, I don't wanna get this wrong
Don't you see what's going on
I don't wanna turn you away
Until you know what's at stake

Wake up!

Oh, oh...

Wake up!

Where did it start? Why?
What does it matter?
We're far beyond
The place that we started
No time of mind
To chase after fault
We know that time is so
Much of what's lost
Yeah, we try and wade
This muddy water
Fill this ocean of need
Bottle by bottle
Hallowed we stand
And watch this parade
Saturday morning
Down to the graves

Oh...
Where did it start?
When does it stop?
Where did it start?
When does it stop?

Hope It Comes Soon lyrics - Hanson

Getting by with just enough
Or are you ready to start trying?
Say, somehow we've been making it by
But I'm tired of toeing the line
Feels like a change is gonna come (feels like change is gonna come)
Feels like a change is gonna come (feels like change is gonna come)

Change In My Life lyrics - Hanson

Standing cold and scared On top of Blue Hill There came one moment When I lost my will I prayed for mercy Please, Lord, take me away Give me sunshine When I only see gray The past had a hold on me It can't be denied And the changes don't come easily Don't you know I've been lonely I've been cheated Been misunderstood I've been washed up Put down And told I'm no good But with you I belong 'Cause you help me be strong There's a change in my life Since you came along Woah, woah... Woah, woah, yeah Now, I don't mind working So hard everyday And I don't pay no mind To what people say, no, no Because after all The pain I've been through I'd give up everything Just to love only you All my life, I've held my Head bent in shame But now I've found you And with you I remain Don't you know I've been lonely I've been cheated Been misunderstood I've been washed up Put down And told I'm no good But with you I belong 'Cause you help me be strong There's a change in my life Since you came along Now, a man gets crazy When his life is all wrong And a heart gets weary Where it doesn't belong When the road gets rocky, Lord You've got to keep on Let the new light come Shining on through Don't you know I've been lonely I've been cheated Been misunderstood I've been washed up Put down And told I'm no good But with you I belong 'Cause you help me be strong There's a change in my life Since you came along Woah, woah... Woah, woah, yeah Woah, woah... Woah, woah, yeah...

The Walk (2007)












Great Divide lyrics - Hanson

The earth is shaking under siege
And every breath will meet it's fate
Still we hunger for a moment of freedom
Even though the hour is late

I find hope and it gives me rest
I find hope in a beating chest
I find hope in what eyes don't see
I find hope in your hate for me
Have no fear when the waters rise
We can conquer this great divide

When every eye is on the fortune
It can only breed contempt
They say blood is thicker than oceans
Still we box our brothers in

I find hope and it gives me rest
I find hope in a beating chest
I find hope in what eyes don't see
I find hope in your hate for me
Have no fear when the waters rise
We can conquer this great divide

Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
And we're gone
And we're gone
And we're holding on
And we're holding on
And we're holding on

I find hope and it gives me rest
I find hope in a beating chest
I find hope in what eyes don't see
I find hope in your hate for me
Have no fear
Have no fear when the waters rise
We can conquer this great divide

Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo
Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo
Whoa, ooo, ooo, ooo

Been There Before lyrics - Hanson

There's a down town corner
People down town know
And a back beat rhythm on the radio
And the girl who listens to a young man's song
On the block i live on
In the place i'm from

Well the young man sitting
On the dock of the bay
He took a long-term trip on a first class plane
How the whole world listens
To that one man's song
On the block i live on
In the place i'm from

Tell me does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll
Does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart
And soul with the
Roots of rock and roll

Well the man in black sits
On a screened in porch
Making birthday wishes, 71 almost
You can hear him singing chariot
Swing low
On the block i live on
In the place i know

Tell me does it move youo
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll
Does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll

Tell me does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll
Does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul with the
Roots of rock and roll

Na na na na na na, I've been there before
Na na na na na na, I've been there before
Na na na na na na, I've been there before
Na na na na na na, I've been there before

When you can't get through it
You can listen to it
With a na na na na
Well I've been there before

When you can't get through it
You can listen to it
With a na na na na
Well I've been there before

Georgia lyrics - Hanson

Georgia, you know that you've been on my mind
Georgia, we've both learned to compromise
I'll be there for you
When everybodys coming unglued
Ill be there for you
I wont say you have to choose

I dont want to let you go
And i dont want to lose you slowly
I just want to let you know
That it's only just a little back and forth lately

Georgia, i'll be chasing you the rest of my life
Georgia, welcome to the roller coaster ride
When i come to you
I know that youll help me get through
I'll be there for you
We both know we could never choose

I dont want to let you go
And i dont want to lose you slowly
I just want to let you know
That it's only just a little back and forth lately
It's only just a little back and forth lately

You carry it like a heavyweight champ
It's hard to say i can't but i know i can't be right
There standing

I dont want to let you go
And i dont want to lose you slowly
I just want to let you know
That it's only just a little back and forth lately

I could never let you go
After all that you've been to me
I just want to let you know
That it's just a little back and forth
It's only just a little back and forth lately

A little back and forth lately
A little back and forth

Watch Over Me lyrics - Hanson

She wakes and takes her place in line
And never bothers to ask why the mirror sheds no light at all
The days turn into lesser days until there's only night
The light it wouldn't help she's too far gone

Her time is up it's five o'clock
It never stops

And she says please, and she says please
And she says please, watch over me

I watch her slowly make her way
Down on a road she shouldn't take
She always ends where she began

The years go by, they're adding up
She clicks her heels but she's still stuck
She's giving in but won't give up she'll never stop

And she says please, and she says please
And she says please, watch over me
And she says please, and she is,
On her knees and she begs and she pleads

Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na

She counts the time 'til her heart breaks
Just waiting for her next mistake

And I said please, and she says please
And she says please, watch over me

On her knees and she begs and she pleads she says
Please, and she says please and she says please watch over me

She counts the time 'til herr heart breaks
Just waiting for her next mistake
Don't give up i know you've stopped believing
And you're down and you're begging you're pleading
Don't give up cause you're not too far gone

Running Man lyrics - Hanson

Waiting up all night
There's something on my mind
I need to tell you why
He's playing you for a fool
He's fooling 'round on you
And i just lost my cool
Feeling so sad

Too bad for the running man
Cause he waits too long so he can't
Come back again
Too bad for the running man
Cause i'm rright here waiting to make
That girl forget
Too bad for the running man, goodbye

Life isn't what it seems
Or something in a dream
That's not quite what i mean
I need to say goodbye
You think i didn't try
I'm not that other guy
I'm feeling so sad

Too bad for the running man
Cuase he waits too long so he can't
Come back again
Too bad for the running man
Cause I'm right here waiting to help
That girl forget
Too bad for the running man goodbye

Too bad for the running man
Cause he waits too long so he can't
Come back again
Too bad for hte running man
Cause i'm right here waiting to help
That girl forget
Too bad for the running man goodbye

It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad
It's too bad
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad for the running man
It's too bad
It's too bad

Go lyrics - Hanson

For all the love we've made
Just one thing stays the same
The lamp gets dusty
The pipes get rusty
But I don't want to wash my hands clean

You say you love me too
Then why won't you go through
With the nightly kisses
With the hits and the misses
If you can make it on your own then

Go if you want to go
But stay if you want to know
The way through the mess we've made
And lie in a bed you know
Or go

I heard your moving van
But I didn't take a stand
You can't leave with them
You can't live without them
I never thought I'd want to let you

Go if you want to go
But stay if you want to know
The way through the mess we've made
And lie in a bed you know
Or go

For all the love we've made
Just one thing stays the same
The lamp gets dusty
The pipes get rusty
But I don't want to wash my hands clean

You say you love me too
Then why won't you go through
With the nightly kisses
With the hits and the misses
If you can make it on your own then

Go if you want to go
But stay if you want to know
The way through the mess we've made
And lie in a bed you know
Or go

Fire On The Mountain lyrics - Hanson

We sit secure in time-honored traditions made
Never wondering where or when the sickle may come
If we don't seek our knowledge to be greater men
When the rain starts falling gonna drown before we get our feet wet

We build our ivory towers to protect us from the flood
A fleet of vessels made of wood so they won't rust
But can we see the bottom of the bottle when we start to drink?
There's fire on the mountain fire and it's coming our way

Can we pick the pieces up
We're mending Babylon
Tryin' to right the wrong
Can we pick the pieces up

Live learn life love die dust gone

There's fire on the mountain

Can we pick the pieces up
We're mending Babylon
Tryin' to right the wrong
Can we pick the pieces up

Live learn life love die dust gone

One More lyrics - Hanson

I sit here by myself
Just staring into space
I thought I knew you well
Well who can ever say

It seems I've spent so long
I can't define my right from wrong

One more for the night
One more for the pain and
One more, long goodbye
And one shot to the brain
And one more takes the knife
And one more takes the train
Who do I name today

A dream of better days
Was long gone by the way
Is there a better place
Well who can ever say

It seems I've spent so long
I can't define my right from wrong

One more for the night
One more for the pain and
One more, long goodbye
And one shot to the brain
And one more takes the knife
And one more takes the train
Who do I name today
Who do I blame today

Nothing's over 'til it's over
And if it's over I don't
Want to hear it
Look into my eyes I told her
Holding onto what is gone won't heal it

It seems I've spent so long I can't
Define my right from wrong

One more for the night
One more for the pain and
One more, long goodbye
And one shot to the brain
And one more takes the knife
And one more takes the train
Who do I name today
Who do I blame today

Blue Sky lyrics - Hanson

I'm blind with eyes wide open
My body's tired and broken
I want a taste of something, that doesn't leave me dry
This hope for answered questions
As rare as true conviction
I stare into the distance, there is no truth in sight
Who can tell me why

Everybody's looking for a blue sky
Searching for an answer on a satellite
I know that there's got to be a blue sky out there to see
A blue sky waiting for me

I've seen the main attraction
I've felt the moment's passion
I won't be no soap box teacher, just taking your time
Just taking your time
Who can tell me why

Everybody's looking for a blue sky
Searching for an answer on a satellite
I know that there's got to be a blue sky out there to see
A blue sky

Everywhere I go, it feels like I'm always searching for something
'Til I know for sure, I'll be right here waiting for something
More, more, for something more, for something more

Everybody's looking for a blue sky
Searching for an answer on a satellite
I know that there's got to be a blue sky out there to see
Somewhere there's a blue sky waiting
Everybody's looking for a blue sky
Searching for an answer on a satellite
I know that there's got to be a blue sky waiting for me
A blue sky

Tearing It Down lyrics - Hanson

I am, taking a chance
Walking with my laces loose
Wrapped up, taking the maze
That everybody's running through
I'm sick of, black tie
Nickel and dime
We're going through the roof

I'm not a wise man
But I see the haze
And this is what I'm gonna do

Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo

Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo

There's a fine line
You walk everyday
'Cause somebody told you to
A white lie
You can't erase
Now you're gonna have to choose

You know a blind man
Won't show the way
But he can tell you
What it's coming to

Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down

Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni
Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni now
Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni
Ni ni ni now
Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni
Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni now

I'm not a wise man
But I see the haze
And this is what I'm gonna do

Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo
Tearing it down
Tearing it down
Whoo, whoo

Something Going Round lyrics - Hanson

Are you falling asleep at the wheel
Maybe there is a feeling, you've been brushing off
Asking reason, what's left for me here
Well he's all out of answers
You're not out of luck

I've got this something
That's been going round
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it
I've got this something
That's been going round
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it now

Are you hungry?
Won't you come get your fill
We could put this thing in motion
If you'd stop acting tough
Superstar you sit up high on your hill
I know why you're running
Only you know what you've lost

I've got this something
That's been going round
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it
I've got this something
That's been going round
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it now

When the sun goes down
It's here waiting
It is still right here for you now
And when the sun comes out
It's still waiting
It is still right here for you now

Doo doo doo doo doo,
Doo doo doo doo doo,
Doo doo doo doo

I've got this something
That's been going round
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it

I've got this something
I've got this something, yeah
I've got this something
You don't know it
But you need it
Yeah yeah, you don't know it
Yeah, you don't know it
But you need it
I've got this something
I've got this something, yeah
You need this something now

Your Illusion lyrics - Hanson

You say you want to kill yourself
It might make it just a little bit easier
You think you're the only one who hurts
Try looking just a little bit harder
I don't know why you're holding on
To the damage that's been done

'Cause you've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on trying to change your conclusion
But you've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on dying 'cause you're busy wasting life

Don't disguise your emptiness
By placing blame on me and everyone else
Protected by your safety nets
But you can't put the heart of your fears at rest
All I feel is deep regret for what you have become

You've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on trying to clear the confusion
But you've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on dying 'cause you're busy wasting
I keep on trying 'cause you're busy wasting life

You're busy wasting life
You're busy wasting life

I cannot go on this way
I bring no consolation for you and your pain
No one else can change your fate
You'll have to do it for yourself

You've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on trying to clear the confusion
But you've got me wrapped up in your illusion
I keep on dying 'cause you're busy wasting life

You're busy wasting life,
You're busy wasting life, you've got me wrapped up
You're busy wasting life, 'cause I keep on trying
You're busy wasting life, you've got me wrapped up
You're busy wasting life, and I keep on dying
