Alien Ant Farm Truant Lyrics
1.1000 Days

Eyes,
They burn,
From sting--
..ing travel.
And miss--
..ing you,
Is hard,
To handle.

Stayed away a thousand days
And things have changed like a decade.
Made the most of all my days,
And still I'm on the wrong page.
Now,
I'm home
And feeling more alone.
It's in,
Your tone,
So maybe I should go.

Why'd,
It turn,
From sweet,
To bitter?
Now,
No cure,
Can make,
It better.

Stayed away a thousand days
And things have changed like a decade.
Made the most of all my days,
And still I'm on the wrong page.
Now,
I'm home
And feeling more alone.
It's in,
Your tone,
So maybe I should go.

Ahh oh,
Ahh oh,
Speeding faster,
Towards disaster.
Ahh oh,
Ahh oh,
This house is cancer,
I won't last here.
Ahh oh,
Ahh oh,
The years go by and still no answers.
Ahh oh,
Ahh oh,
No answers

Now,
No cure,
Can make,
It better.

Stayed away a thousand days,
And things have changed like a decade.
Made the most of all my days,
And still I'm on the wrong page.
Now,
I'm home,
Speeding faster,
Towards disaster.
It's in,
Your tone,
Years go by and still no answers.
Still no answers.


2.Drifting Apart

We'll take a trip for two,
Around the world,
We'll have a birdseye view,
Of every single nation.
I could be what you wanted,
I could be what you needed.

Chorus:
We're drifting apart like people do,
We're drifting apart 'cause we all do.
And skies seem blue.
Time has two separate hands,
I wonder where we stand.
We're drifting apart like people do,
We're drifting apart 'cause we all do.

I gravitate toward,
The only girl.
So with the wind we blew,
And now we're on a mission
I could be what you wanted,
I could be what you needed.


Time has two separate hands,
And I wonder where we stand.
We're drifting apart like people do,
We're drifting apart like people do,
We're drifting apart 'cause we all do.


3.Quiet

I'll be the bumble bee behind you baby.
I'll tear up everything inside you, well yeah.
And it stings, and it stings
Sun shines through your openings.
I'll tear up everything inside you.

Hold up, don't say what I think you're gonna say.
Take your time cause I can wait.
It's all on you and I'm not sane.

And if you see my girl could you bring her to me?
She don't like a life with a rock n' roll singer, well yeah.
But we'll spend the rest of our lives in happiness.
I'll wrap this ring around her finger.

Hold up, don't say what I think you're gonna say.
Take your time cause I can wait.
It's all on you and I'm not sane.
You won't see what you mean to me
And you don't feel that you're everything.
For now I'll live with you
Quiet, quiet.

You don't see what you mean to me.
You don't feel like you're everything.
You can take all the time you need.
I hold my breath but I have to breathe.

Hold up, don't say
Hold up, don't say
Hold up, don't say what I think you're gonna say.
Take your time cause I can wait.
It's all on you and I'm not sane.
You won't see what you mean to me
And you don't feel that you're everything.
For now I live with you
Quiet.
Quiet.


4.Glow

I never thought that you'd find out I did it
I was so scared that you'd leave so I hid it
I know we said that we'd always be honest
So now I went out and messed up our nest
It finally seems like we've turned into strangers
It's gotten so bad there's just no more anger
So now it seems like we can't get no further
I can't believe I'll be bright for another

I'll be the switch she turns on
She'll be mine too, I'll get off
I'll be the fuse that she blows
And even with the lights out we'll glow

So where's the sun it shone no love on your face
Under the moon and with the girl that's in your place
And even Edison has no idea
Of all the blackouts I've caused you and me

I'll be the switch she turns on
She'll be mine too, I'll get off
I'll be the fuse that she blows
And even with the lights out we'll glow

I'll be the switch she turns on
She'll be mine too, I'll get off
I'll be the fuse that she blows
And even with the lights down real low
We'll glow
We'll glow
We'll glow


I'll be the switch she turns on
She'll be mine too, I'll get off
I'll be the, I'll be the fuse she blows
And even with the lights out we'll glow

I'll be the switch she turns on
She'll be mine too, I'll get off
I'll be the fuse she blows
And even with the lights out we'll glow

I'll be the switch she turns on
She'll be mine too, I'll get off
I'll be the fuse she blows
And even with the lights out we'll glow

I'll be the I'll be the fuse
I'll be the I'll be the fuse


5.These Days

Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah

Making all these waves and
I wonder where the days went.
I sit and think of you I
Hope the feeling's mutual
I'm seeing all you gave and
It somehow don't seem even
Close to what I'd do
To break in two seems natural.

These days are great, there's work to do
Would you like to work with me? I'd love to work you
These days are great and so are you
I think it's something positive, and negative too

Playing all these games and
I wonder who's to blame it
I sit and think it's you
I'm sure the feelings mutual
We're growing cold
Its getting old
We should have known it's over

These days are great, there's work to do
Would you like to work with me? I'd love to work you
These days are great and so are you
I think it's something positive, and negative too

Ah ah ah ah ah
We'll be a real team
Ah ah ah ah ah
We'll be a real team

These days are great, there's work to do
Would you like to work with me? I'd love to work you
These days are great and so are you
I think it's something positive, and negative too

These days are great, there's work to do
Would you like to work with me? I'd love to work you
These days are great and so are you
I think it's something positive, and negative too

These days are great, there's work to do
Would you like to work with me? I'd love to work you
These days are great and so are you
I told you...


6.Sarah Wynn

Remember when we were young?
We'd smoke cigarettes behind the store.
Pimpin' beers for fun.
Back then I loved you.

Making you almost cry
under Louisiana sky.
Never thought you'd fly.
We all miss you.

What the hell were you thinking of?
I can't help you now, Sarah.
Why the hell were you shooting up?
Now you're coming down, Sarah!

I know it's been some time
But now you're back.
I'll try to help.
It seems like wasted time,
'Cause only you can help yourself.

A calm and collected mind,
I talked to your parents yesterday.
It seems they're doing fine.
They're worried about you.
Habits are hard to break.

I don't know how much I can take from you.
I guess that I'll never relate.
I really don't know what to make of you.

We're worried about you.


7.Never Meant

I threw a rock at window,
missed and hit the light.
And now it's hard to see you,
without illuminite.
I punched a knock on your door,
not to cause a fight.
And now I'd pay to see you,
just for one more night.

Never meant to do you wrong.
Never meant to cause you harm.

Find a heart to break in.
Maybe yours tonight.
Throw a Molotov in,
just to make it bright.
Here's to every cocktail,
that we drank tonight.
Here's to making up,
and cheers to one more fight.

Never meant to do you wrong.
Never meant to cause you harm.


8.Goodbye

All that you so is steps above
Anthing else we could dream of
My tabloid girl, you miracle
God's gift to earth but cynical
Wannabe's gather around you
Walking on eggshells behind you
Spit on your face I'd love to
If only I didn't love you

And then your friends will say
That you look good today
Goodbye, goodbye
And then to your dismay
You turned your head one day
Goodbye, goodbye

Humbleness taught me to share the love
But you never caught that drift, did ya?
My little girl, you'll see the world
A dismal place where you're the thrill
My sweet you certain in state of grace
Larger than life to all human race
If I could just pull back your reins
Make 'em tight
My sweet, there's nothing larger than life

I hear my conscience say
That you look good today
Goodbye, goodbye
And then to disbelief
You turn your pretty cheek
Goodbye, goodbye

You never caught that drift, did ya?

And then your friends will say
That you look good today
And in your special way
You knew before they told ya
And then with no delay
You turned you head one day
Goodbye x10


9.Tia Lupe

She traps a velvet moth between her harmless hands,
Then builds an Atrium to perch on her night stand,
She lays to watch her fly, atracted towards the light,
She it all mine.

It's now another day in search for anything,
She'll take advantage of any human being,
She loves to watch me fly, attracted towards the light,
She's all mine, if she'd only leave the light on.

She breathes under my velvet wings,
If she'd only leave the light on.
She brings all that she used to be,
If she only left the light on.

I swear it's hard to tell if I'm the only one,
I fount a photograph next to the Arium,
It's faded black and white, he's holding her so tight,
She's all mine, if she'd only leave the light on.

She breathes under my velvet wings,
If she'd only left the light on.
She brings all that she used to be,
If she only left the light on.

All the powder on your wings, make me feel I'm everything,
And every single evening I love you with the way I sing.

I sing.


10.Rubber Mallet

Chemicals run, free my mind
Think of north on Valentine
Maybe we drink, to old friends
You should go, she's on my mind again
I lost my only enemy

So I reminisce thoughts
Tried be true
Takes me back, when I had to choose
And I don't ever lose
Someone's making me love, and I don't think it's you
Sleep, and I don't ever dream
Someone's got me in line and I don't ever dream

Indecision breaks my vision
And I don't give a damn
Indecision breaks my vision
And I don't give a damn
So I reminisce thoughts, tried be true
Then played you out, was not good
Reminisce thoughts, tried be true
Then I play you out like a rubix cube
And I don't ever lose
Someone's making me love and I don't think it's you
Free from disease now I'm clean
You just punch your hole, and it won't seem to bleed

Only, only two of us, only the two of us

When I had to choose, and I don't ever lose
Someone's making me love and I don't think it's you
Free from disease now I'm clean
You just punch your hole and it won't seem to bleed


11.S.S. Recognize

And back to the ebb came, in fact and full of rain
And two the flow went, I think the vessel bent
Now time is precious, rocky waves we're nauseous
I think everything is wet, from us the ocean fed
What made us try to have done what we do, let's dream of dry
To not tremble in the nightfull sky, fuel shy

Don't you recognize, I'll rock the boat again
I'm getting scurvy bad

Now it's been days, and the sun won't show her face
She will blame mistakes on me, now the cold becomes obscene
Will you just bend, and think of saving my life again
This ship has made me cry, I think the next time we should
flyfull sky, fuel shy

Don't you recognize, I'll rock the boat again
I'm getting scurvy bad

We're bringing up all the sharks cause all the whales have gone
Mas Surr,
you fail to recognize all the things that we do,
check yourself, the boat just about to sink
You're gonna choke on the salt if you try to drink

We're bringing up all the sharks cause the whales have gone Mas
Surr,
you fail to recognize all the things we do,
check yourself the boat just about to sink, we don't need

You bitch, you think you are the missed link
All the prism in the world couldn't make hue
All the rescue that I've seen don't bring you
Stand up, sit back or walk the plank, kiss the deck and recall

All the prism in the world couldn't make hue...

Don't you recognize, I'll rock the boat again
I'm getting scurvy bad


12.Hope

Hope is the thin I'm feeling today.
Walking a mile out of the way,
I still might make it though.
Turn on your street
And See a car.
One where I thought mine should be parked
Finding our home a house of pain
See in an instant
things can change
And never feel the same.
Turn on your street and see a car.
One where I thought mine should be parked.

If that's what you demand,
Then that's what I'll deliver..
If that's what you demand,
Then that's just what I'll give you.

Trenches dug out the side of the road.
Remember the smell of earth in piles.
And there was nothing else to do
But walk for miles.
So I walked for miles.

If that's what you demand,
Then that's wht I'll deliver.
If that's what you demand,
Then that's just what I'll give you.

Turn on your street
And see a car.
Someone I thought was a friend
to me has ripped a hole in my life.
Someone I thought was a friend
to me has gone and married my wife.

If that's what you demand,
Then that's wht I'll deliver.
If that's what you demand,
Then that's just what I'll give you.

If that's your master plan,
Then I wish you two the best together.
