The reason

by Hoobastank

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

{Refrain:}
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why I need you to hear

{au Refrain}

You, you, you

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

{au Refrain, x2}

Crawling in the dark
by Hoobastank
I will dedicate
And sacrifice my everything for just a second's worth
Of how my story's ending
And I wish I could know if the directions that I take
And all the choices that I make won't end up all for nothing

{Refrain:}
Show me what it's for
Make me understand it
I've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer
Is there something more than what I've been handed?
I've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer

Help me carry on
Assure me it's ok to use my heart and not my eyes
To navigate the darkness
Will the ending be ever coming suddenly?
Will I ever get to see the ending to my story?

{au Refrain}

So when and how will I know?
How much further do I have to go?
How much longer until I finally know?
Because I'm looking and I just can't see what's in front of me
In front of me

{au Refrain}
Did you
by Hoobastank
Would you say everything you could
Do the things that you thought you would
Did it ever occur to you that this could be your final day
Did you go where you wanted to go
Learn about what you wanted to know
Did you ever really give something back instead of always taking it

Did you find what you're looking for
Did you get your foot in the door
Can you look at yourself and feel proud of all the things you've done
Did you inspire the ones that you knew
Make a difference to those who knew you
Did you finally figure out what it is that makes us who we are today

Don't waste another day
You never know when you'll get one
Don't waste another day
To do anything you haven't done

Did you always give it your best
Is there anything you regret
If you could have another shot at it all would you do it just the same
Was it all that you thought it could be
Are you the person you thought you would be
Or did it feel like you were spinning your wheels instead of moving forward everyday

Don't waste another day
You never know when you'll get one
Don't waste another day
To do anything you haven't done
Don't waste another day
You never know when you'll get one
Don't waste another day
To do anything you haven't done

Did you
Da da da did you
Did you
Da da da did you

Don't waste another day
You never know when you'll get one
Don't waste another day
To do anything you haven't done
Don't waste another day
You never know when you'll get one
Don't waste another day
To do anything you haven't done

Did you
Da da da did you
Did you
Da da da did you
Did you
Da da da did you
Did you
Da da da did you
 
Out of control
by Hoobastank
I've done everything as you say, I followed your rules without question
I though it would help me see things clearly
But instead of helping me to see, I look around and it's like I'm blinded
I don't wanna live like this so can you tell me?

where should I go? What should I do?
I don't understand what you want from me
'Cause I don't know if I can trust you
Or all of the things you've said to me
And I may never know the answer to this endless mystery
Where should I go? What should I do?
I don't understand what you want from me

I feel like i'm spinning out of control, try to focus but everythings twisted
And all along I thought you would be there
To let me know I'm not alone but in fact thats exactly what I was
All alone and spinning out of control. out of control...
 
Ready for you
by Hoobastank
Go on
make me feel it's useless
when in fact it's you that
needs to have me near
So now
keep me at safe distance
and with a little persistance
we'll make it crystal clear

And I'll be around
only if you want me to
be there by your side
I'm ready for you
And I'll be around
cause I know what you're going through
so when you think it's time
I'm ready for you

Now you
seem to be content with
a one sided freindship
you have got to change
Slow down
so I can smell the roses
but the road you've chosen is twisted and unclear

I'll be around
only if you want me to
be there by your side
I'm ready for you
And I'll be around
I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
I'm ready for you

I'll be around
only if you want me to
be there by your side
I'm ready for you
And I'll be around
I know what you're going through
So when you think it's time
I'm ready for you
I'm ready for you
Right before your eyes
by Hoobastank
When the door shuts, don't worry about me
It's not attention that I want from you
I need you to trust who I'm gonna be
And in everything I'm going to do
Cause I'm not afraid of what I don't know
For understanding is all that I earn
But what is for sure is I'm going to go
I'm going to live and I'm going to learn

And I know there will be mistakes that I will make
But I know none are worse than chances I don't take, take

Right before your eyes, I am changing
Changing
You laugh on the inside, I am changing
Changing

When the door shuts, it shuts finally
A new person that I have become
I'll follow my heart to my destiny
Living in fear and the sorrow is done

There will be no more feeling that I'm all alone
I will surround myself with things that help me grow

Right before your eyes I am changing
Changing
You laugh on the inside, I am changing
Changing

Right before your eyes I am changing
Changing
You laugh on the inside, I am changing
Changing

Right before your eyes I am changing
Changing
You laugh on the inside, I am changing
Changing

Right before your eyes
Right before your eyes
Running away
by Hoobastank
I don't want you to give it all up
and leave your own life collecting dust
and I don't want you to feel sorry for me
you never gave us a chance to be

And I don't need you to be by my side
and tell me that everything's all right
I just wanted you to tell me the truth
you know I'd do that for you

So why are you running away?
why are you running away?

I did enough to show you that I
was willing to give and sacrifice
and I was the one who was lifting you up
when you thought your life had had enough
and when I get close you turn away,
there's nothing that I can do or say
so now I need you to tell me the truth
you know I'd do that for you

So why are you running away?
why are you running away?

Is it me? Is it you?
nothing that I can do
to make you change your mind

Is it me? Is it you?
nothing that I can do
is it a waste of time?

Is it me? Is it you?
nothing that I can do
to make you change your mind

So why are you running away?
why are you running away?
(what is it I have to say?)
so why are you running away?
(to make you admit you're afraid)
why are you running away?
Unaffected
by Hoobastank
There never seems to be
Because what I believe
A moment I'm not trying
To show them who I am
Why can't they understand
The things that they're denying?

They're denying...

{Refrain:}
So what should I do
Just lay next to you
As though I'm unaffected
And who should I be
When they're judging me
As though I'm unaffected?

A chance they'd never give
To ever want to live
The life that I am made of
There's nothing left to prove
My heart's forever true
What is it they're afraid of?

Afraid of...

{au Refrain}

Before they even say my face
The knew that I was not the same
And decided I was not the one for you

For you...

So what should I do?
I'm not unaffected
And who should I be?
I'm not unaffected

{au Refrain}

Unaffected... {x4}
