Try It 03:02
Maybe we'd have gotten on / Maybe if I had been your pet / Got me all tied up until / Til you need a fix / Til you need a fix / You wanna talk about work / When I got more in the bank / Well maybe work on your attitude / Try it, tell me what you think / Yeah we could have been something / You with your teeth and me with this set / But I'm not too dumb to fall / Fall for your tricks / Fall for your tricks / You wanna talk about work / When I got more in the bank / Well maybe work on your attitude / Try it, tell me what you think

All The Best 02:56
Your stepping stone has found someone / Found somebody to love / I wish all the best for you, but oh it's like it came from above / All the best for me / Don't waste your breath on me / Only the best for me / One little page in your little black book / It came to life for me / I was just a page in your little black book / But that's what they call destiny / All the best for me / Don't waste your breath on me / Only the best for me / Ooh ooh ooh ooh / All the best for me / Don't waste your breath on me / Only the best for me

I said a lot of things I didn't mean yesterday / And I've been trying hard to take them away / You said a lot of things you didn't mean yesterday / And I've been thinking about them all day / But the more that I think about it / I'm starting to think / That I meant every word that I said / Yeah the more that I think about it / I'm starting to think / That I meant every word that I said / I tried to take it back / But you were too pissed to listen / So I said "go fuck yourself" and drove away / There's nothing I can do except to say I'm really sorry / But I might've really screwed myself today / And the more that I think about it / I'm starting to think / That I meant every word that I said / Yeah the more that I think about it / I'm starting to think / That I meant every word that I said / If I start again / Would she forgive what I've done? / Could I start again / With this one, or another one? / And the more that I think about it / I'm starting to think / That I meant every word that I said / Yeah the more that I think about it / I'm starting to think / That she meant every word that she said

Broken 03:10
Why couldn't you just stick around? / Why couldn't I pin you down? / It happened so suddenly / Where'd you go? / What's wrong with me? / You make me feel like my love's broken / You make me feel like my love's broken / I know we both had hearts stolen / But I felt mine start growing / It happened so suddenly / Where'd you go? / What's wrong with me? / Did I say it too soon? / Did I use the wrong line? / Should I have waited til noon? / Is now a bad time? / You'll move along with someone better than me / But he'll never love you like I do, you'll see / Why couldn't you just stick around? / It happened so suddenly / Where'd you go? / What's wrong with me? / You make me feel like my love's broken / You make me feel like my love's broken / You make me feel like my love's broken / You make me feel like my love's broken
5.
Pretenders 03:52
Thanks for pretending / Now I've got the real thing / It took a love in disguise / To find the light in my eyes / I'm done with sad songs / I've done all my wrongs / Thanks for the memories / I'll keep them for a while / But this one brings me flowers / And good reason to smile / I'm over bad times / I'm over love crimes / Sometimes it takes a bad move / To break through your heart / Sometimes it takes sad news / To find your way through the dark / So here's to pretenders / Still leading us on / For letting us find the answers / In a feeling so wrong / I've done some bad things / In pursuit of a happy ending

In a lonely corner cafe, sits a man / He's got lines and scars and blisters on his hands / 40 years, give or take / Just jumping trains / Oh, a day in the life / It would blow your brain / What's a life spent on the run? / But, how can I judge / If I'm not having fun / Cos the mystery train / Might run me over again / But don't fear the unknown / Cos this train is taking us home / He's worn and tired from years and lost desire / Though we all jump cars when our bridges catch fire / Some men wear their years on the outside / While the rest of us are just afraid to die / What's a life spent on the run? / But, how can you judge / If you're not having fun / Cos the mystery train / Might run me over again / But don't fear the unknown / Cos this train is taking us home / What's a life spent on the run? / But, how can I judge / If I'm not having fun / Cos the mystery train / Might run me over again / But don't fear the unknown / Cos this train is taking us home
7.
Mary 03:09
Mary says she’s running around with every boy in town / And I believe her, yes I believe her / Mary says she’s through with you for always bringing her down / I could just be her, I might just be her / Oh, when her love runs out / Oh, there will be no doubt / If you couldn't be true / Oh, then she's through with you / Mary says you’ve given her shade for every friend she’s made / And I believe her, yes I believe her / Mary says she can’t unwind, cos you keep crossing her mind / I might just be her, I might just be her / Oh, when her love runs out / Oh, there will be no doubt / If you couldn't be true / Oh, then she's through with you / Oh Mary, I’ve been burned / But those are just lessons learned / We live and love through scars / And see who we really are / Mary says she’s out of the haze, she’s gonna change her ways / And I believe her, yes I believe her / And Mary says to love and live, you need to learn to forgive / I could just be her, I might just be her
8.
I heard you don't wanna say goodbye / But I see you can't look me in the eye / What do you want me to see? / Who do you want me to be? / And what do you I have to do to change your mind? / You slipped out without a word to me / And my friend saw you catch the 5:15 / What do you want me to say? / How could you do me this way? / And what do I have to do to change your mind? / Everything was going grand, it seemed / It was like we stepped out of a dream / You should know what you meant to me / I thought that we were meant to be / What do you want me to say? / How could you do me this way? / And what do I have to do to change your mind?

2 AM, the bar is closed / I don't want to go home / I could stay out every night with all the pretty ones / Visited by visions / Time to make decisions / Working with a hangover is not as easy as it used to be / I make decent money and I have many responsibilities / You look so carefree / You're the ghost of me / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do / When I ask you to help me / You sweep your arm and smile / Every answer is equal / Everyone is right / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do / Look around you, all you see are happy little smiles / Looking out their window, they can see for miles and miles and miles / I want something new / I want something true / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do / When I ask you to help me / You sweep your arm and smile / Every answer is equal / Everyone is right / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do / Everything worthwhile was done by one with too much time to kill / When you sign your name on the line / Just be certain that it's worth the will / I can't face the fear / Anywhere but here / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do / There's no right thing to do

Stay Down 04:52
Just when you thought you learned your lesson / Another kick in the teeth / When you're down and life's handing you lemons / It just gets harder to breathe / Love brought the war to my front door / You drafted me, you bested me / Love brought the rain into my brain / But I came around, you best stay down / Just when you feel you're in the clear / Another bomb will drop / And again you're down / When does love come around? / I feel my heart may stop / Love brought the war to my front door / You drafted me, you bested me / Love brought the rain into my brain / But I came around, you best stay down / Love brought the war to my front door / You drafted me, you bested me / Love brought the rain into my brain / But I came around, you best stay down / I thought I'd write it down / Let myself be honest for a start / I may be a lot of things / But at least I wasn't trying to break your heart / No, at least I wasn't trying to break your heart
