renegade speeds liberate me
the asphalt melts
my blood is seething
lets go
the road has called and i must follow
come with me and break the cycle
let's go

let's take a ride
and put the car in overdrive
and disappear
go far away
where no one has a thing to say
about our lives

spinning wheels are spinning freely
leave the suburbs
for the city lights are calling us in
and speed so fast we'll get so dizzy
and celebrate our new beginning
three two one and go

how long will i go on
turning my back and closing my eyes
wishing you were here but pretening you're dead
it's not so bad here in mediocraty
no one expects much of me
but i think of you and your thoughts of me
i hurt so badly but i can't leave

you kiss me when i'm sleeping
when i have no will to wake
it's will that keeps me from you
it's a change i'll have to make

will i ever be able to do the things my heart feels for you?
am i able to stop the things i do not want to do?
i want to hold the hand that guides me and loves me
but this stubborn will has its hold on me
misery is my cradle, i'm dying in my needs
will providence shine his face on me?

pick me up off this floor out of this mess i've made for myself
my flesh is weak but my spirit is willing
river's bridge of stones i'll fall water deep
your whirlpool love will hold me still
i'm safe in the cradle when i'm in your light
spirit come and make everything alright

i wear it so well,
no one else can tell
what is inside
once i was a servent,
once i was a sucker
i was such a sellout
but i don't want to tell you twice
but were you lost or were you found?
and do you know just where you're going?

was it something i said
that it went to your head
that you can't buy
cause i'll teach you right
i'll teach you right
get into the light it'll be so nice
it'll be so kind
cause i'll teach you right
i'll teach you right

you know everything
and everything's a lie
until it's proven true by you
but can you escape
the passions moving out of place
and turning your world upside down
cause i don't want to point the blame
so come out from your prideful game
and take my hand and come inside now

will you ever learn
the ways of the world
will you ever learn
the ways of the world
cause i want to win your heart
and take you to another place
you never thought or could dream of
and i don't want to point the blame
so come out from your prideful game
and take my hand and come inside now

Your eastcoast smile
Wasn't worth my while
Boy I'm afraid
You're coming back again

Just fade out
Just fade away
Into my past
Like acid wash

Look out now
Here he comes
Look out girls
Cuz he's a clown

Just when he was stylin'
Now he's out like acid wash
 

why are you so cruel
when you pick up the phone
when i come to your home
what did i do wrong?

do you remember back then
when we were good friends
but now you pretend
just to be nice

now i know who you are
you're just a big clown
with a big fake smile
and a big fake laugh

i just wanted to be your friend
but you wanted a kiss
all the fun and laughter we had
i will miss

don't you go around town
just putting me down
telling all yor friends
that i'm a fool

cuz i don't need your friends
and i don't need your jokes
i never wanted to be
more than your friend

but you think you're so cool
you can't handle the truth
your motives mislead
yet you call me a tease
why are you so mean?
you never call me back
you're giving me attitude
how'd you get so rude?
can't we just get along?
i didn't do you wrong
get over yourself
and let's be friends

cuz i don't want to go on
feeling this way
i wanna say hi
without you walking away

but if you want to stay mad
you just go right ahead
one day you'll grow up
and you'll be a man
