Goo Goo Dolls


Long Way Down


Oh here you are, there's nothing left to say
You're not supposed to be that way
Did they push you out? did they throw you away?


Touch me now and I don't care
When you take me I'm not there
Almost human, but I'll never be the same


Long way down, I don't think I'll make it on my own
Long way down, I don't want to live in here alone
Long way down, I don't think I'll make it on my own


I never put you down, I never pushed you away
You're not supposed to be that way
And anything you want, there's nothing I could say


Is there anything to feel?
Is it pain that makes you real?
Cut me off before it kills me


Chorus


I never put you down, I never pushed you away
Take another piece of me
Give my mind a new disease
And the black and white world never fades to gray


Chorus


Slide


Could you whisper in my ear
The things you want to feel
I'll give you anything
To feel it comin'
Do you wake up on your own
And wonder where you are
You live with all your faults
Chorus:
I wanna wake up where you are
I won't say anything at all
So why don't you slide
Yeah we're gonna let it slide
Don't you love the life you killed
The priest is on the phone
Your father hit the wall
Your ma disowned you
Don't suppose I'll ever know
What it means to be a man
Something I can't change
I'll live around it
Chorus
And I'll do anything you ever
dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of nothing that fall
May put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are
And what you are is beautiful
May do you wanna get married
Or run away
Chorus


Iris


And I’d give up forever to touch you
’Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be
And I don’t wanna go home right now


And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later it’s over
I just don’t wanna miss you tonight


Chorus:
And I don’t want the world to see me
’Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am


And you can’t fight the tears that ain’t coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
And you bleed just to know you’re alive


Chorus


Black Ballon


I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you’re not thinking about tomorrow
’Cause you were the same as me
But on your knees


A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon
That was your womb


Comin’ down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone’s prayer


You know the lies they always told you
And the love you never knew
What’s the things they never showed you
That swallowed the light from the sun
Inside your room


Comin’ down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder


And there’s no time left for losin’
When you stand they fall


Comin’ down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you grow colder
All because I’m
Comin’ down the years turn over
And angels fall without you there
And I’ll go on to bring you home
All because I’m
All because I’m
And I’ll become
What you became to me


Broadway


Chorus:
Broadway is dark tonight
A little bit weaker than you used to be
Broadway is dark tonight
See the young man sitting
In the old man’s bar
Waiting for his turn to die


The cowboy kills the rock star
And Friday night’s gone too far
The dim light hides the years
On all the faded girls


Forgotten but not gone
You drink it off your mind
You talk about the world
Like it’s someplace that you’ve been


You see you’d love to run home
But you know you ain’t got one
And you’re livin’ in a world
That you’re best forgotten around here


Chorus


You choke down all your anger
Forget your only son
You pray to statues when you sober up for fun
Your anger don’t impress me
The world slapped in your face
It always rains like hell on the losers day parade


You see you’d love to run home
But you know you ain’t got one
’Cause you’re livin’ in a world that you’re best forgotten
And when you’re thinkin’ of a joke
And nobody’s gonna listen
To the one small point
I know they been missin’ round here

Chorus


You see you’d love to run home
But you know you ain’t got one
’Cause you’re livin’ in a world
That you’re best forgotten
And if you’re thinkin’ of a joke
Do you think that they’ll listen
To the one small point
I know they been missin’ round here


Chorus


Here Is Gone


You and I got something
But it's all and then it's nothing to me
And I got my defenses
When it comes to your intentions for me
And we wake up in the breakdown
Of the things we neer thought we could be


I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
What do you got to move you darling
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all


Chorus:
And I want to get free talk to me
I can feel you falling
And I wanted to be all you need
Somehow here is gone


I have no solution
To the sound of this pollution in me
And I was not the answer
So forget you ever thought it was me
I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
What do you got to move you darling
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all


CHORUS


And I don't need the fallout of all the past
That;s here between us
And I'm not holding on
And all your lies weren't enough to keep me
here


CHORUS


And I want to get free talk to me
I can feel you falling
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
I can feel you falling
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
Somehow here is gone
