Again we're stuck in gear
And lost, but you don't care
How can it be that we've agreed to start again
Agreed that maybe this time it'll be the end

It's just a state of mind
And you are looking at the ground
But it's not raining, look at the sky
But it's hard when you're not looking very high

I wanted everything but this
When all I want is happiness
Alone in life, Alone in love (I wanted more)
You show the side of you that's not
The side of you, you show a lot
All I want is something else
To hold onto

I sit here all alone
Writing words to show
The thoughts and feelings I have towards you
Have we come this far just to figure out there's nothing new
Between us

I used to fall apart
And wait for that fire to spark
But now it's over
I know I lost
It's just so easy to break

I wanted everything but this
When all I want is happiness
Alone in life, Alone in love (I wanted more)
You show the side of you that's not
The side of you, you show a lot
All I want is something else
But you're not letting go


I sit back and watch the sunset
Nothing else could ever calm me down
I write words of so sweet breath
Composed to make your world go 'round
I like things that make me smile
Your personality can't give me that
And when you frown I think of why we'll
Never be the same

It's not cool to play ska music
It's not cool
It's not cool to play ska music
It's not cool

I pulled the microphone from her lips and said, She told me I don't date guys in a band
"I don't ever wanna be like this" And besides

Ska doesn't pay
Ooooo It's not cool
To play ska music
But I do it anyway

Cuz I wanted more than this
Times are changing stop complaining
It's not the person you have left behind
Maybe I'm someone else that you can live without
