collision
i'll be a star and you can quit your job
we'll take the car and leave the rest behind
she's holding on to everything that i've done wrong
slowly drowning in procrastination
you've become my only inspiration
i've never felt so alive
and it's a head-on collision
in my decision to go on
when you're gone you'll be the only one that goes
a changing season, a changing tone
and you've been the reason that i've been alone
increasing solace, increasing scorn
a sweet dream that you can never remember
inside this storm
and someday she might change her tone
when she sees me on the cover of the rolling stone
but until then i'll subside
and it's a head-on collision
in my decision to go on
when you're gone you'll be the only one that goes
my poor decision
misread precision
from now on, when you're wrong you'll be the only one that knows
thinking about the things i only think about when i'm feeling down
while little girls with poetry and diaries are all over town
with labels telling fables giving me the rock n roll runaround
but another slip, he's pussy-whipped
but that's the kind of thing that sends me running and running
just another contact held up by a thumbtack
i don't wanna be that

flashing yellow lights
she's a tennessee girl but she's got california style
and she stumbles through forever
that's what makes it all worthwhile
and the one thing that keeps tearing me apart
is how she won't let me forget her
although that wouldn't make it better
after all
and i keep trying to let go
although i know i don't know how
so i'll keep lying to myself
pretending things are different now
and i've had my fill of these flashing yellow lights
and i know the drill, i rehearse it every night
with the stars in the sky
and the flashing yellow lights in my eyes
these bright yellow lights in my eyes
another telephone call, god i hate to hear you cry
even more so when i know that i'm the only reason why
all these tears fall. and i feel so far apart
it seems like everybody knows you
god i really wish i knew you right now

you won't hold my hand (and so i have to hold yours)
i’ll be impatiently waiting
until you turn it around
it seems you’re only my friend when there’s no one else around
i saw you there at a party
baby’s shootin' the breeze
i can’t walk and i can’t think and i can’t breathe
do you remember when we used to say that
rock and roll can heal this pain and take us far away?
i’ll be the stars and you’ll be the sky and
we’ll make believe that we would never say goodbye
uh oh
it feels like i’m always gonna let you
make sure i don’t getchoo
i don’t wanna let you down
and when we’re finally moving
is when you’re wanting to go
i’ll be saying "i love you" and you just say "ditto"
and still the world revolves for you
and all the things that you’ve been through
and all the things we want to do
i never wonder how i could feel nothing now

charleston
and the stars in carolina must be beautiful tonight
i wouldn't know cause where i'm standing, they're all out of sight
and when i dream she changes and it's perfect from afar
and life's alright in charleston under carolina stars
so won't you tell me baby are there methods to the madness?
will there ever be a smile behind the sadness?
i'm so sick of this ticker-tape parade that i've been marching in
increase the distance, follow the footprints alright
and the stars in carolina must be beautiful tonight
