Teddy
Geiger - Better Now lyrics
You've been driving down
Down to Buffalo
Like you don't care no
more
And it's aright
If you tell me before
you're gone
I asked you to your face
You weren't listening
You say it's nothing
but
Now you won't call
We can't talk anymore
You found someone else
I thought you never would
I can't say that I like
it better now
Yes, you found someone
else
I thought you never would
I can't say that I like
it better now
Do you remember when
Oh, the sun would rise
Through your window
And I'd be waiting to
say hello
Good morning
Oh and I was spoken so
soft spoken
But you helped me out
Now were falling
Never to be heard about
Yes, you found someone
else
I thought you never would
I can't say that I like
it better now
Yes, you found someone
else
I thought you never would
I can't say that I like
it better now
I don't like it better
now
I don't like it better
now
I don't like it better
now
These Walls
I can't believe what
is in front of me
The water's rising up
to my knees
And i can't figure out
How the hell i wound
up here
Everything seemed okay
when i started out the other day
Then the rain came pouring
down
And now im drowning in
my fears
And as i watch the setting
sun
I wonder if im the only
one
[Chorus]
Cause everyobody tries
to put some love on the line
And everybody feels a
broken heart sometimes
And even when i'm scared
i have to try to fly
Sometimes i fall
But ive seen it done
before
I got to step outside
these walls
I've got no master plan
to help me out
Or make me stand up for
All the things i really
want
You had me to afraid
to ask
And as i look ahead of
me
Cry and pray for sanity
[chorus]
These walls can't be
my haven
These walls can't keep
me safe here
Now i guess i got to
let them down
Cause everybody tries
to put some love on the line
And everybody feels a
broken heart sometimes, yeah
Even when i'm scared
i have to try to fly
Sometimes i fall
But i've seen it done
before
I got to break out...
I got to break out...
I got to step outside
these walls
Love outside these walls
I feel my heart breaking
But its a brand new day
Im going down
Im stepping out
Im stepping outside
These walls
(I've seen it done before..
i'm walking on, i'll walk it off, oh i'm moving on)
Night Air
The night air breathes
But not so easy as before
Did you notice
Did you take the time
to listen
To my breath or to my
words
When I spoke I explained
my feelings
And my reasons for the
way I love you
I'm getting to the point
And I feel like I do
Even more now that I'm
leaving
Well, I feel just like
I do when I'm with you
And she's so sweet and
I'm leaving thinkin
how I'm barely breathin
Notice how your every
look gives me tingles
And I wonder if your
listening to what I'm thinking
We won't fade away
And I feel like
I do even more now that
I'm leaving
Well, I feel just like
I do when I'm with you
And I feel like I do
even more now that I'm leavin you
I'm leaving you
So what am I to do
My feelings have not
fallen away
Your my every thought
here
Everything will go on
it's own way
Everything is ok we can
try to make it
Everything will go, it's
alright baby
My feelings have not
passed away
You're my every thought
here, everything will
(chorus 2)
Look Where We Are Now
I need a break it's all
the same
Under the sweet December
rain
Just a crack of yellow
light
To shine on my head
You'll find that I fought
for the right
To laugh with my eyes
till tears would fall
And the salt would hit
my lips
With some love to help
me survive
Don't you want it?
I've never seen anyone
who wants it this bad
You said games were much
more fun
I'd rather play than
get things done
Well look where we are
now
Look where we are now
You said games were much
more fun
I'd rather play than
get things done
Well look where we are
now
Look where we are now
So the pencils change
to pens
I just want to hang out
with my friends
We can give it our all
Time after time but it
just keeps getting harder
And getting hotter to
the touch
I need the hot and simple
sun
I wanna just let go
With someone to help
me survive
Don't you want it?
I've never seen anyone
who wants it this bad
You said games were much
more fun
I'd rather play than
get things done
Well look where we are
now
Look where we are now
You said life happens
too fast
I'd rather play and make
it last
Well look where we are
now
Well look where we are
now
I guess if I change up
this direction we could
Start it all over, my
dear, yeah
If I could just move
in this direction we could, yeah
You said games were much
more fun
I'd rather play than
get things done
Well look where we are
now
Look where we are now
You said life happens
too fast
I'd rather play and make
it last
Well look where we are
now
Well look where we are
now
You said it, you said
it
Games were much more
fun
Well look where we are
now
Seven Days Without You
Sitting here counting
the hours
Waiting for the sun to
kiss the sea
Paralyzed by the fragrance
of the flowers
They remind me of you
and me
Chorus
There's one love in a
lifetime
Our two hearts of a kind
These three reasons you'll
be mine
Four and five and six
are through
Seven days without you,
Seven days without you.
Making plans just to
stop the aching
Chasing thoughts from
a million miles away
Hypnotized as another
dawn is breaking
I rehearse the words
I want to say
Chorus
Well I will find a way
into your heart
So let me try and sleep
before we know
Chorus
A Million Years
Caught up in what's in
Caught up in the things
that everyone wants
Caught up in what's out
Caught up in the things
that you could do without
Well what if I was one
of them
Don't let me be
Well if I live for a
million years
I would be right there
to catch your tears
Will you get over it
this time
And is this the last
time
On this night we breathe
air
What makes it so different
What makes you not care
Well I wish that we could
be the same
And I wish that you could
give up this game
Don't want to be one
of them
Don't let me be
Well if I live for a
million years
I would be right there
to catch your tears
Will you get over it
this time
And is this the last
time
Will you say goodbye
before you leave
Will you say goodnight
just one more time please
Will you call my phone
out of regret
And will you love again
With other than me, Other
than me
And will you speak of
me with other than me
And will you remember
me
And will you remember
me
Will you remember me
Well if I live for a
million years
I would be right there
to catch your tears
Will you get over it
this time
And is this the last
time
Is this the last time
Oh, is this the last
time, my dear
Oh, is this the last
time
Yeah, is this the last
time my, dear
Oh, is this the last
time
Is this the last time,
my dear
Is this the last time
I
think it's the last time
for us |
For
You I Will (Confidence)
Wondering the streets,
in a world underneath it all
Nothing seems to be,
nothing tastes as sweet
As what I can't have
Like you and the way
that you're twisting your hair
round your finger
Tonight I'm not afraid
to tell you
What I feel about you.
Oh, I'm gonna muster
every ounce of confidence I have
and cannon ball into
the water
I'm gonna muster every
ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
For you I will
Forgive me if I st-stutter
From all of the clutter
in my head
Cuz I could fall asleep
in those eyes
Like a water bed
Do I seem familiar, I've
crossed you in hallways
a thousand times, no
more camouflage
I want to be exposed,
and not be afraid to fall.
Oh, I'm gonna muster
every ounce of confidence I have
And cannon ball into
the water
I'm gonna muster every
ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
You always want what
you can't have
But I've got to try
I'm gonna muster every
ounce of confidence I have
For you I will (x3)
For you
If I could dim the lights
in the mall
And create a mood I would
Shout out your name so
it echos in every room
I would
That's what I'd do, That's
what I'd do to get through to you, yeah
Oh, I'm gonna muster
every ounce of confidence I have
And cannon ball into
the water
I'm gonna muster every
ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
You always want what
you can't have
But I've got to try
I'm gonna muster every
ounce of confidence I have
For you I will (x4)
Thinking Underage
So soon to say it's over
Lets see what happens
later on
I'm 16 the world just
opened wide
I've got a pocket full
of change
I'm tired of thinking
underage
Just cut this string
and let me fly
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Chorus
Forgive me mom and dad
If the music makes you
sad
Nothing can prepare us
for the day
When little boys grow
old
And don't do as they're
told
But I will find my way
I'm just tired of thinking
underage,
Tired of thinking underage,
I'm not thinking underage
anymore
I'm first in line at
the DMV
I'll sweet talk you,
just give me the keys
I don't have a curfew
in my mind
Little Katie and me like
Rolling Stones
She keeps me still by
letting go
It's not like were running
out of time
Cause you will find,
yeah you will find
Chorus
Just like gravity, the
ups and downs
Will always be ok with
me
I am over all that underage
can be so…
Chorus
(Forgive me mom and dad)
I'm not thinking underage
anymore (2x)
(If the music makes you
sad)
I'm not on that page
anymore, no
I'm not thinking underage
anymore (2x)
Air Dry
Well, I kiss the rain,
I waited up
You're pouring dragons
in my cup
Don't try it, I can't
cope with it
We'll get over it, yeah
I'm over it
I'm tired of night and
I can't breathe
You blew me off so easily
It's different between
you and me
And I'm over it, you'll
get over it
Chorus
I'm not the jealous type
that doesn't sleep at night
You got your karma, I
know I got mine
And all of my tears will
air dry with just a little time, Air dry.
Well, I heard you played
behind my back
Was I a fool to not react
Lets go to tape and play
it back
I was out of it, I was
under it
Your little spells worked
quietly
Your good-byes left me
wondering
Now that I'm gone you
contemplate
If you're over me, well
you used to be
Chorus 2
I'm not the jealous type
that doesn't sleep at night
You got your karma, I
know I got mine
And all of my tears will
air dry with just a little time
Only wanted it once I
was over it
You go your way, I know
I'll go mine
And all of my tears will
air dry with just a little time
How was I supposed to
know
You never told me baby
what you want
I can't read your mind
You never bothered to
look inside of mine
I used to wake up every
morning
And all I could do was
think of you
It was all a lie, it
was all a lie
Chorus 2
Try Too Hard
Well love life one speaks
for the other one here
And love life one speaks
for the other one now
We'll try to get by
Did anyone try to too
hard
Well I guess I did
I guess i did alright
Well she'll break my
heart
Did anyone try too hard
Well I guess I did
I guess I did alright
She'll break my heart
She'll break my heart
Cause ever since the
minute I saw your face
Well I knew I wanted
to be in that place next to you
And now I'll spend my
whole life trying
To be the one that's
inside your arms
And I'll try to give
back
Did anyone try too hard
Well I guess I did
I guess I did alright
She'll break my heart
Did anyone try too hard
Well I guess I did
I guess I did alright
She'll break my heart
She'll break my heart
Well isn't it alright
Why can't it be
Just this once alright
It will be you and me
Did anyone try too hard
Well I guess I did
I guess I did alright
She'll break my heart
Did anyone try too hard
Well I guess I did
I guess I did alright
She'll break my heart
She'll break my heart
Possibilities
I'm walking on clouds
now
And the sky is falling
on down
I don't wanna wake up
if I'm dreaming
Don't think I'll ever
get out of my bed
And every moment brings
a surprise
And my eyes won't open
I feel something's different
I'm growing out of my
skin
Chorus
Goodbye my fears
I feel that we have parted
The possibilities keep
walking in on me
It feels so strange,
I guess that's change
It's alright
The possibilities keep
walking in on me
I always said that I
needed a girl
One to hold and who I'd
give the world
Well that's alright
But it's so hard to decide,
yeah
Sometimes I find pictures
of me left behind
Things in life happen
twice, the first is in my mind
Chorus
Sometimes I can't (3x)
See what's right in front
of my eyes
Sometimes I can't (3x)
Believe that I believe
Chorus
Love Is A Marathon
You love to run
Into the arms Of anyone
Take off your shoes and
socks
And stay awhile
You like the adrenaline
rush
Just a little too much
You go from day to day
Hand to mouth
And wonder why You're
unsatisfied
Chorus
Cause love is a marathon
That's why you get tired
so fast of everyone
Slow down and pace yourself
Cause when it's good
It's a long open road
You think still
You'll find a soul behind
a thrill
You're just a cat chasing
your tail
Round and round
What if you relax
Something might last
[Chorus]
You're exhausted always
coming down
Trying to come up for
air
Trying to act like you
just don't care
La da da, de da da
[Chorus]
Gentlemen
I was blinded by the
lights
I saw the reflecting
in their eyes
It blinded me from the
sea
Of everybody's smiles
And I was young and best
So I'd thought I'd test
the night
Yeah I thought that we
can leave before the lights fell down
I wasn't listening
So carry on young young
gentleman
I have done all that
I can
I have done all that
I'll stand for..
Carry on young young
gentleman
I have done all that
I can
I have done all that
I'll stand for..
We left after dark, the
sun had fallen for the moon and all the moments race
It's going way tot fast
its way tot soon
So I sat alone
Just for a moment they
came back and now I'm stuck right here
Reeling in the slack
now from my previous nights
So carry on young young
gentleman
I have done all that
I can
I have done all that
I'll stand for..
Carry on young young
gentleman
I have done all that
I can
I have done all that
I'll stand for..
Deliver me now from everything
we should not do..
It's so unpredictable
But still you know just
what your gonna do
And even no more is there
for flag
Something is different
even though it's hard to meet that it wasn't listening
So carry on young young
gentleman
I have done all that
I can
I have done all that
I'll stand for..
Carry on young young
gentleman
I have done all that
I can
I have done all that
I'll stand for..
I stand for something
I stand for something
I will stand for something
yeah
So carry on young young
gentleman
I have done all that
I can
I have done all that
I'll stand for, yeah |
