3 Doors Down The Greatest Hits Lyrics
1.Kryptonite

Lyricist:Brad ArnoldTodd HarrellMatt Roberts
Writer(s):Brad ArnoldTodd HarrellMatt Roberts

I took a walk around the world
To ease my troubled mind
I left my body laying somewhere
In the sands of time
But I watched the world float
To the dark side of the moon

I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah

I watched the world float
To the dark side of the moon
After all I knew it had to be
Something to do with you
I really don't mind what happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend at the end

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be
There a-holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side
With my superhuman might
Kryptonite

You called me strong, you called me weak,
But still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times
I never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head,
If not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you back
On solid ground

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well,
Will you be there a-holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side
With my superhuman might
Kryptonite

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be there
Holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side
With my superhuman might
Kryptonite
Yeah!!

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well,
Will you be there a-holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side
With my superhuman might
Kryptonite
Yeah!!


2.When I'm Gone

Lyricist:Brad ArnoldMatt RobertsChris HendersonTodd Harrell
Writer(s):Brad ArnoldMatt RobertsChris HendersonTodd Harrell

There's another world inside of me
That you may never see
There're secrets in this life
That I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness
There's a light that I can't find
Maybe it's too far away...
Or maybe I'm just blind...

Or maybe I'm just blind...

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone

Love me when I'm gone...

When your education X-Ray
Cannot see under my skin
I won't tell you a damn thing
That I could not tell my friends
Roaming through this darkness
I'm alive but I'm alone
Part of me is fighting this
But part of me is gone

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone

Or maybe I'm just blind...

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one
You wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone

Love me when I'm gone...

Love me when I'm gone
When I'm Gone
When I'm Gone
When I'm Gone


3.Here Without You

Lyricist:Brad ArnoldMatt RobertsChris HendersonTodd Harrell
Writer(s):Brad ArnoldMatt RobertsChris HendersonTodd Harrell

A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same
But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face

I'm here without you, baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you, baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you, baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it's only you and me

The miles just keep rollin'
As the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as we go

I'm here without you, baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you, baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you, baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight, girl, its only you and me

Everything I know, and anywhere I go
It gets hard but it won't take away my love
And when the last one falls
When it's all said and done
It gets hard but it wont take away my love

I'm here without you, baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you, baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you, baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight, girl, its only you and me


4.It's Not My Time

Lyricist:Brad ArnoldMatt RobertsTodd HarrellChris Henderson
Writer(s):Brad ArnoldMatt RobertsTodd HarrellChris Henderson

Looking back at the beginning of this
And how life was
Just you and me loving all of our friends
Living life like an ocean
But now the current's only pulling me down
It's getting harder too breath
It won't be to long and I will be going under
Can you save me from this?

Cause it's not my time I'm not going
There's a fear in me it's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
Oh but I won't go

I look ahead to all the plans that we made
And the dreams that we had
I'm in a world that tries to take them away
Oh but I'm taking them back
Cause all of this time I've just been too blind to understand
What should matter to me
My friends this life we live, it's not what we have
It's what we believe in

Cause it's not my time I'm not going
There's a fear in me but it's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
But it's not my time I'm not going
There's a will in me and now I know that
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
Oh but I won't go
I won't go

There might be more than you believe
(There might be more than you believe)
There might be more than you can see

But it's not my time I'm not going
There's a fear in me it's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
But it's not my time I'm not going
There's a will in me and now it's gonna show
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
Oh

There might be more than you believe
(There might be more than you believe)
There might be more than you can see

But I won't go
No I won't go down
Yeah


5.Let Me Go

Lyricist:B. ArnoldR. HarrellM. RobertsC. Henderson
Writer(s):B. ArnoldR. HarrellM. RobertsC. Henderson

One more kiss could be the best thing
But one more lie could be the worst
And all these thoughts are never resting
And you're not something I deserve

In my head there's only you now
This world falls on me
In this world there's real and make believe
And this seems real to me

You love me but you don't know who I am
I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand
And you love me but you don't know who I am
So let me go
Let me go

I dream ahead to what I hope for
And I turn my back on loving you
How can this love be a good thing
When I know what I'm goin through

In my head there's only you now
This world falls on me
In this world there's real and make believe
And this seems real to me

You love me but you don't know who I am
I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand
You love me but you don't know who I am
So let me go
Just Let me go...
Let me go

And no matter how hard I try
I can't escape these things inside I know
I knowww..
When all the pieces fall apart
You will be the only one who knows
Who knows

You love me but you don't know who I am
I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand
And you love me but you don't know Who I am
So let me go
Just let me go

And you love me but you don't
You love me but you don't
You love me but you don't know who I am
And you love me but you don't
You love me but you don't
You love me but you don't know me


6.Be Like That

Lyricist:Brad Arnold
Writer(s):Chris HendersonBrad Arnold

He spends his nights in California, {He spent his whole life
being to young,}
Watching the stars on the big screen, {To live the life that's
in his dreams,}
Then he lies awake and he wonders, {At night he lies awake and
he wonders,}
Why can't that be me
Cause in his life he is filled
With all these good intentions
He's left a lot of things
He'd rather not mention right now
But just before he says goodnight,
He looks up with a little smile at me,
And he says,

If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that,
what would I do,
What would I do

Now and dreams we run
She spends her days up in the north park,
Watching the people as they pass
And all she wants is just
A little piece of this dream,
Is that too much to ask
With a safe home, and a warm bed,
On a quiet little street
All she wants is just that something to
Hold onto, that's all she needs
Yeah!

If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do,
What would I do

I'm falling into this, dreams,
We run away

If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do,
What would I do

If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do,
What would I do

If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes

If I could be like that, what would I do,
What would I do
Falling in
I feel I am falling in, to this again.


7.Loser

Writer(s):Raymond ScottBrad ArnoldTodd HarrellMarco EnnisMatt
RobertsJohn BynoeJeffrey NealAnthony Grant

Breathe in right away,
Nothing seems to fill this place
I need this every time,
Take your lies get off my case
Someday I will find a love
That flows through me like this
This will fall away,
this will fall away
You're getting closer to pushing me
Off of life's little edge
Cause I'm a loser
And sooner or later
You know I'll be dead
You're getting closer,
You're holding the rope,
I'm taking the fall
Cause I'm a loser, I'm a loser, yeah
This is getting old,
I can't break these chains that I hold
My body's growing cold,
There's nothin left of this mind
Or my soul
Addiction needs a pacifier,
The buzz of this poison is taking me higher
This will fall away,
This will fall away
You're getting closer, to pushing me
Off of life's little edge
Cause I'm a loser and sooner or later
You know I'll be dead
You're getting closer,
You're holding the rope and
I'm taking the fall
Cause I'm a loser
You're getting closer, to pushing me
Off of life's little edge
Cause I'm a loser and sooner or later
You know I'll be dead
You're getting closer,
You're holding the rope
And I'm taking the fall
Cause I'm a loser


8.Away From The Sun

Lyricist:Brad ArnoldMatt RobertsChris HendersonTodd Harrell
Writer(s):Brad ArnoldMatt RobertsChris HendersonTodd Harrell

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
Can anyone tell what I've done
I miss the life
I miss the colours of the world
Can anyone tell where I am

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun again
Away from the sun again

I'm over this
I'm tired of living in the dark
Can anyone see me down here
The feeling's gone
There's nothing left to lift me up
Back into the world I know

And now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines to light the way for me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
And now I can't tell what I've done

And now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines to light the way for me

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines to light the way for me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again

Oh no...
Yeah...
I'm gone...


9.Duck And Run

Lyricist:Todd HarrellMatt RobertsBrad ArnoldChris Henderson
Writer(s):Todd HarrellMatt RobertsBrad ArnoldChris Henderson

To this world I'm unimportant
Just because I have nothing to give
So you call this your free country
Tell me why it cost so much to live
Tell me why
This world can turn me down
But I won't turn away, oh no
I won't turn around
All my work and endless measures
Never seem to get me very far
Walk a mile just to move an inch
Now even though I'm trying so damn hard
I'm trying so hard
This world can turn me down but I
Won't turn away
And I won't duck and run, cause
I'm not built that way
When everything is gone there is
Nothing there to fear
This world cannot bring me down
No cause I'm already here, oh no!
I am already here,
Down on my knees
I am already here, on no, I am
Already here
I must have told you a thousand times,
I am not running away
I won't duck and run
I won't duck and run
I won't duck and run
No pass away
This world can turn me down but I
Won't turn away
And I won't duck and run, cause
I'm not built that way
When everything is gone
There is nothing there to fear
This world cannot bring me down
No cause I'm already here
This world can turn me down
But I won't turn away
And I won't duck and run
Cause I'm not built that way
When everything is gone there
Is nothing there to fear
This world cannot bring me down
No cause I'm already here


10.One Light

Lyricist:Brad ArnoldChris HendersonMarti Frederiksen
Writer(s):Brad ArnoldChris HendersonMarti Frederiksen

Standing humble, a fist of rage
A silent army, they call my name
See that firmly, and not in dismayed
I'm never broken, and I'm not afraid

So come with me, let's take this world and make a change
And we'll give this, more than we can take away
And we'll see this, through eyes we always thought were blind
If we could find, just one light to shine
Just one light to shine

Walls will crumble at our feet
All we know we will finally see
We'll fight for hope, and we'll kill this doubt
Angels of war, let me out

Come with me, let's take this word and make a change
And we'll give this, more than we can take away
And we'll see this, through eyes we always thought were blind
If we could find, just one light to shine
Just one light to shine

So come with me, let's take this word and make a change
And we'll give this, more than they can take away
And we'll see this, through eyes we always thought were blind
If we could find, just one light to shine
Just one light to shine

12.Goodbyes

Lyricist:Brad ArnoldChris HendersonMarti Frederiksen
Writer(s):Brad ArnoldChris HendersonMarti Frederiksen

That's so much I would say, if I could see you one last time.
Now I can't but you're not here but your always on my mind.
I look up when you're not there, but when I lie awake at night
All these things I ask myself I don't why.

When it's the first time you don't see someone again.
When it's the last time you weren't ready for it to end.
When will I leave you standing alone here in the dark
There is a reason but sometimes, goodbyes are so hard, there so
hard.

Look ahead, can't move on, I look but I cant stay.
I keep tryin to be strong, but there's pain it won't go away.
And I hope this will heal in time, 'cause I can't go on like
this,
And right now Id give my life for one last kiss.

When it's the first time you don't see someone again.
When it's the last time you weren't ready for it to end.
When will I leave you standing alone here in the dark
There is a reason but sometimes, goodbyes are so hard, there so
hard.

You'll be there on my mind, standing in the sunshine.

When it's the first time you don't see someone again.
When it's the last time you weren't ready for it to end.
When will I leave you standing alone here in the dark
There is a reason but sometimes, goodbyes are so hard, there so
hard.
