I've been dancing alone for so long Can't believe that all my money is gone Will it rain and stop the rain Or will the rain remain? Old habits die young, die hard, die tragic, Die stupid on the clothesline in the yard, like magic This scent, these shoes, this heart, and this bruise I said I hate you last night, but I hope you know the truth I don't know where I am today Still getting over our yesterdays Give it to me slow, give it to me right Save my tomorrow, come dance tonight I've been acting like I'm out of my mind So when I text you on a Saturday night I wanna hear from you right away Don't let me bleed out from all the pain We've been dancing on a dream Babe, it ain't the way it seems Faking it between the sheets We've been hanging on the night Ooo, but it don't seem right Hanging on the satellites Dancing on a dream tonight Sad eyes in the bedroom (and I don't know why) I'll never forget you (and I don't know why) I'm sorry I never let you (and I don't know why) Sad eyes in the bedroom (and I don't know why) When I looked in the mirror last night (and I don't know why) I couldn't stare at the awful sight (and I don't know why) So I inform you regretfully (and I don't know why) I will always hate that part of me (and I don't know why) I can't eat and when I do sleep (when I do sleep) The night is quite and the silence runs deep (silence runs deep) And now I pray for the break of day (and now I know why) To make the bad dreams go away (and now I know why) Is there something that I can believe? (and now I know why) Nothing is real, and neither is he (and now I know why) We've been dancing on a dream Babe, it ain't the way it seems Faking it between the sheets I've been wishing on the sky But I know the stars don't shine They are just these little lights Dancing on a dream tonight

Hey Mr. DJ, hook hook me something good I wanna hear something real I can give it up to It's been so long since I turned up the radio I'm ready to die and give you all my money Ashes to ashes, give me some dust to dust And I wish and I wish but it's not enough There is no star, there is no sky, I have no home Cause party people, we're so alone All I wanna do is have some fun We can blow the sun to kingdom come All I wanna do is have some fun tonight All I wanna do is have some fun tonight All I wanna do is have some fun tonight All I wanna do is have some fun If there was a god I'd pray to him too But there's nothing beyond the sky Nothing but black inside Just look at the moon All I wanna do is have some fun We can blow the sun to kingdom come All I wanna do is have some fun tonight All I wanna do is have some fun tonight All I wanna do is have some fun tonight All I wanna do is have some fun When I was a little boy It was my dream To be everything Now that I'm here And I've given my love And I've done my job And I've kissed my mother And I've shaken hands With three silver ghouls And I've been taken down Seven dark roads And I've done all that's true And some of what's good Love vs. love vs. hate vs. pain X vs. X Little boy When the party's over, where do we go? What will I be when I die? And when will I get to sleep Safely and eternally In the arms of my mother In the eyes of my father And into the doom of the new morning Get up Get down Love is hate is pain is heaven is god is love is hate is pain is heaven is god

No matter where I go No matter what I do There's one thing I know I'm not enough for you No matter what I see No matter what I find When I close my eyes And I shut the blinds Everyone is here Is anyone here? I shake all morning long And cry all afternoon I feel a million eyes In an empty room When the sun goes down And the moon comes up I can feel the beasts Trying to eat me up Everyone is here Is anyone here?

I'll always love you I'll never let you down I'll always love you Even when you're in the ground They know our secrets We gave them everything But this is one song that they will never sing It's just the outside That causes so much pain So we're staying inside Til the morning stops the rain Let it rain down on me Look up to heaven When you get out of bed Something inside you Will never let you rest It's in the ocean It's growing on the trees It's in the fire But dollars are all they see Where ever we go That's where we'll always be No matter how caged We will eventually Be free And live forever Hey! Hey! Now can I pray? Give it up, kid, get your money Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Stick 'em up high You know we don't need nothing and we're never gonna die Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Never gonna die Never gonna die Never gonna die Never gonna die
