The Neighbor
There's a life right outside of your window
So many eyes, never looked your way
That makes you feel you're ?? in a dream
Believe me it's no dream
It's everything you've seen
Do you know what I mean?
Chorus:
I am the neighbor
I owe you a favor
Human behavior
To look for a savior
I am the neighbor
I owe you a favor
You need a savior
Come on back to me later
We can talk, we can talk about anything
And if you like you can confide in me
With your eyes you will see that I'm listening
To every word you say
And trust me it's OK
To give yourself away
(Chorus)
I'm the one who wrote you all the notes
I'm the one who gave you the fur coat
Yeah I'm the one who wants you from afar
But never showed you
But now you know
I am the neighbor
I am the neighbor
I am the neighbor
Do you need a favor
They Put Her in the Movies
What do you know, they put her in the movies
Next thing you know she'll have no time for me
How long ago she lived her life through me
Now what do you know she's making a movie
I thought I was the only one
Now I wait like everyone
For a glimpse, a fleeting sigh,
A tender look that will remind that she was mine
I sit at home watching the TV
I can see her, it's me that she can't see
Can't stop myself, sometimes I feel dirty
When I sit at home watching the TV
I thought I was the only one
Now I wait like everyone
For a chance to leave behind this wilderness
Of heart and mind I occupy
And I loved her
Yes I loved her
What do you know, they put her in the movies
Next thing you know she'll have no time for me
Not long ago she lived her life through me
Now what do you know she's making a movie
I thought I was the only one
Now I wait like everyone
For a glimpse, a fleeting sigh,
A tender look that will remind that she was mine
She was mine
She was mine, yeah
What do you know they put her in the movies
She was mine
She was mine, yeah
What do you know they put her in the movies
Ah, she was mine
Feeling No Pain
Train of impermanence pulls its way in front of me
A feeling of innocense makes its way inside of me
She spoke with a silver tongue
The kind you read of in magazines
And eyes full of confidence, or is that consequence
I'm feeling no pain
I'm feeling no pain
I was a younger man just a'struggling with the same demands
That pay for my sanity and give me a stronger hand
Some say it's ignorance that turns love into self defense
Contained to a silent rage as any glimpse of common sense
I'm feeling no pain
Yeah I'm feeling no pain
"I was one of the lucky ones" you told yourself
You hide behind the mirrored eye, don't see yourself
You were no friend to me, in fact my enemy as we both agree
In trying to get to me why do you make a scene embarassing?
I hear every poison word, more absurd I've never heard
I keep my sword on back in case of attack
But I'm feeling no pain
Yeah I'm feeling no pain
"I was among the lucky ones" you told yourself
But you hide behind the mirrored eye, you'll see yourself
You were a different one, full of fire and a devil in your eye
You play with others well, good they tell, too hard you try
You treated them all like fools, it's the only tool you knew how to use
You're gonna have to reach in here 'cause now you fear
That you're feeling no pain
You're feeling no pain
You're feeling no pain
You're feeling no pain
"I am one of the lucky ones" you told yourself
But you hide behind the mirrored eye, don't see yourself
"I am one of the lucky ones" you told yourself
But you hide behind the mirrored eye, don't see yourself
See yourself
Now I'm a different man just struggling with the same demands
Moving Up
I'm moving up
I'm moving up
What I want from this world
Is a place in the sun, girl
A smile on your face
I almost can taste it now
Can I be the one who
You give everything to?
Oh why do you wait?
I swear it's never too late
Chorus:
'Cause I want you
And everybody wants you too
And what am I supposed to do?
(What am I supposed to do?)
Yeah I want you
And everybody wants you too
And what am I going to do?
(What am I gonna do?)
Show me eyes that are shimmery
In line with delivery
Ooh, and I'll set you free
Ooh yeah, here I give you the key
Anyway, they say you're no good for me
Tell me who should I believe?
'Cause I don't think they see
Oh no, the girl that's in front of me
(Chorus)
I'm moving up
10x
Can I be the one who
(I'm moving up)
You give everything to?
(I'm moving up)
2x
Lost Myself
Did I hear you say you're on your way?
Don't you get closer every day?
And do you know, do you know what all this means
When you've been living in the inbetween?
Oh man, I wish I took a photograph
Just to remind myself why I laugh
Time to keep track of what goes wrong
Desire's a funny thing 'til it's gone
Chorus:
I was on the verge of something wonderful and you were gonna be a part of it
That is no lie
But I lost myself in you
Yes I lost myself in you
Oh I lost myself in you
And I don't know what to do
Got tired of running with the animals
There's no regard for the status quo
And what I do, what I did, is back away
Seems I get further from you every day
Until I notice there is no one 'round
So unfamiliar, like I'm lost downtown
And now I'm keeping track of what can go wrong
When you put everything in your song
I was on the verge of something wonderful and you were gonna be a part of it
That is no lie
But I lost myself in you
Yes I lost myself in you
Oh I lost myself in you
Do you know what I could do?
Yeah I'm lost without the muse
Yeah I lost myself in you
Did you hear me say I'm on my way
Well I'm closer than yesterday
And I know, yes I know, there's a theme
The realization of the dream
I was on the verge of something wonderful and you were gonna be a part of it
That is no lie
But I lost myself in you
Yeah I lost myself in you
I lost myself in you
Yes I lost myself in you
Oh I lost myself in you
Yeah I know what I should do
Yeah I lost myself in you
Oh I lost myself in you
Oh I lost myself in you
And I know what I should do
But I lost myself in you
Oh I lost myself in you
Yeah I lost myself in you
Now I know what I should do
