Track Lyrics

Burnin' Up Lyrics

[Verse]
Said you're burning up inside and no one seems to tell
You're living from a personalized manual from hell
Life seems pretty easy when it's from my easy chair
And you're burning up inside and no one cares
Said you had enough this time cuz time don't treat you well
You always cried coincidence, while I drew parallels
[Chorus]
Life, it seems so easy when it's from my easy chair
And you're burning up inside, burning up inside
Burning up inside and you hurt me
(Really hurt me)
(Oh, you hurt me)
[Bridge]
Try to take my hand tonight, I'll show you where to start
Cuz every word that left your lips is like a needle through my heart
[Chorus]
And life, it seems so easy when it's from my easy chair
And you're burning' up inside, burning' up inside
Burning up inside and you hurt my eyes
(Cuz you're burning up inside)
Hurt my eyes
(Cuz you're burning up inside)
Hurt my eyes
(Cuz you're burning up inside)
Hurt my eyes

Only One Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'll open up my head awhile
Its been dead for years
Must've been a victim of my peers
One is for my happiness
The other for my health
The last is something bigger than myself
[Chorus]
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say
[Verse 2]
I'm talking to myself again
I'll just start a fight
And nobody can prove me wrong, I'm right
Anti-hero idol with a suicide excuse
A thousand other suckers who try and fill your shoes
[Chorus]
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say
[Bridge]
Little pictures in my head, turning inside-out again
'Cause fucking up takes practice, I feel I'm well rehearsed
Because the past is a bully and the future's even worse
Tell me what you fear cuz I can feel it like a curse
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, you used to be a folk singer, now you're just a joke singer
Ain't no smoking dope singer, swinging from a rope singer
[Chorus]
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one
I ain't the only one to say

Somethin' Bad Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, they're shutting all the shops up on the avenue
And they're holding up for cheaper Chinese food
If I'm old then I would have a tainted attitude
Why'd those neon lights all lose their common blue?
[Chorus]
And it's not like me to feel so important
And it's not like me to go and wreck your day
And I never thought I'd see it so exploited
Ah, but I know that something bad has got to change
Oh yes, I know that something bad has got to change
[Verse 2]
Well I see her walking round the block till six a.m
The thermometer's at minus five degrees
And I'm wondering where all that hard earned money goes
To her head or towards a shred of dignity
[Chorus][x2]
And it's not like me to feel so important
And it's not like me to go and wreck your day
And I never thought I'd see it so exploited
Ah, but I know that something bad has got to change
Oh yes, I know that something bad has got to change
[Outro]
Yes, I know that something bad has got to change
Oh yes, I know that something bad has got tochange

So Long Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't take much looking back to know I took my coffee black then
Nothing's different now, but nothing seems the same and it's alright
Your optimistic views, your hundred dollar running shoes and
Carpel tunnel syndrome, we all had a laugh about it
[Chorus]
I'd love to stick around but I got to tell you all
So long
Oh so long
Oh so long
But I didn't want to tell you all so long
[Verse 2]
Don't take much looking back to know I faked that heart attack then
Nothing's different now, but nothing seems the same and it's alright
You always spoke the truth from circa disco Abba boots and
All that showbiz talk, oh we all had a laugh about it
[Chorus][x4]
I'd love to stick around but I got to tell you all
So long
Oh so long
Oh so long
But I didn't want to tell you all so long

Disconnected Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't remember
It doesn't ring a bell
And when you call me everything is swell
I tend to forget about the times we had
And now it doesn't matter cuz I feel so sad
[Chorus]
I've been disconnected
Someone pulled the plug
Oh, you're so distant
Nothing's come along, yeah
[Verse 2]
We've paid the price and now we're both alone
And if you call me, you'll find me home
I've found another, someone to take your place
Now if you don't mind, please get outta of my face
[Chorus][x2]
I've been disconnected
Someone pulled the plug
Oh, you're so distant
Nothin's come along, yeah
