Why Are You Still Here?

She's headed back home to the west coast
Silhouette lingers like an old ghost
Dancing in the hallway
There's a house key sitting next to goodbye note
"California Girls" on the radio
The irony is not lost
So, if people come and go
why are you still here?
In the back of my mind is a memory
Blinded by the death of you and me
I wish I could erase it
So I think I might drive tot he left coast
Cigarettes, coffee and No-Doz
Gotta get you out of me
So, if people come and go
why are you still here?

I can't find the meaning of this
Just another question to figure out
And I'm a book you'll never read
But somehow my spine's broken and wearing out
It's wearing out, yeah it's wearing out
So won't you call my name, illuminate the night
If it's all the same we may have won the fight
If you feel the same, I wonder where you are tonight,
tonight, tonight tonight
Take me with you anywhere you want
Cuz I will follow you into the night
So won't you call my name, illuminate the night
if it's all the same we may have won the fight
If you feel the same, I wonder where you are tonight

Save Your Prayers

This could be heaven but it's hot as hell
Chasing my heart down a wishing well
I gave my soul but it wasn't for sale
I'm on again, I'm of again.
Give every inch but you take a mile
Must be the devil behind that smile
Always looking for an alibi
I'm on again, I'm off again
If you jump maybe I won't catch you
Save your prayers for
Someone else don't
Save them all for me
Waste your breath on
Someone else don't
Waste it all on me
Head full of brains and beating desire
Singing along to a devil's choir
Out of the pan back into the fire
I'm on again I'm off again
Another place and another time
Another face, another line
Another lie from a friend of mine
I'm on again, I'm off again
If you jump maybe I won't catch you
If you leave maybe I'll just let you
Save your prayers for
Someone else don't
Save them all for me
Waste your breath on
Someone else don't
Waste it all on me

Better Off Alone

I know you better
than the back of my own hand
Fairest of weather
quickest of the sand
So paint no illusion
when you're out there on your own
If you never loved me
why'd you take me home?
I think I'm better off alone
I think I'm better off
Something's always wrong when we meet in the dark
Something that you say's gonna tear me apart
Someone's always saying we should let this go
I think I'm better off alone
How did it feel
to keep me crawling on the floor
Blacked out the windows
Locked behind your door?
I'd hate your guts if you had some
You'd spill em all but you got none
So your words keep cutting
right down to the bone
I think I'm better off alone
I think I'm better off
Something's always wrong when we meet in the dark
Something that you say's gonna tear me apart
Someone's always saying we should let this go
I think I'm better off alone
I think I'm better off alone
I think I'm better off
Something's always wrong when we meet in the dark
Something that you say's gonna tear me apart
Someone's always saying we should let this go
Come on tell me something I don't already know
Something's always wrong when we meet in the dark
Something that you say's gonna tear me apart
Someone's always saying we should let this go
I think I'm better off alone
