Scars and Souvenirs

Theory of a Deadman Scars and Souvenirs Lyrics
1.So Happy

Put the bottle down,
finally got somethin' to say
Take another look around
and find someone else to play
Needless to say ..
That you've got problems
There's no f#kin' way ..
that I'm gonna solve them
It's never the same ..
every time you slip,
then you fall down, down, down

Ever wonder what
I been thinkin' about?
I been thinkin' bout
throwin' you out

I'm so happy about you ..
I'm fed up, so get up and get out
I'm so happy now we're through ..
I'm fed up, so get up and get out
I was so afraid, now you're gone away
Sent you packing,
look who's laughin' now
I'm so happy that I feel this way
I'm so happy that I threw you away

Put your problems down and
pick up what's left of the pain
Take a good look at yourself
and see who's really to blame
Needless to say .. you got issues
There's no f#kin' way ..
hat I'm gonna fix you
It's never the same ..
ever since you went fallin' down,
down, down

Ever wonder what I been
thinkin' about?
I been thinkin' bout
throwin' you out

I'm so happy about you ..
I'm fed up, so get up and get out
I'm so happy now we're through ..
I'm fed up, so get up and get out
I was so afraid, now you're gone away
Sent you packing,
look who's laughin' now
I'm so happy that I feel this way
I'm so happy that I threw you away

I'm so happy about you .. I'm fed up,
so get up and get out
I'm so happy now we're through ..
I'm fed up, so get up and get out
I was so afraid, now you're gone away
Sent you packing,
look who's laughin'now
I'm so happy that I feel this way
I'm so happy that I threw you away


2.By The Way

A note by the door
Simply explains
It's all that remains
It's no wonder why
I have not slept in days
The dust on the floor
Piled up from the years
All those scars and souvenirs
Now that you're gone
It's easy to see
But so hard to believe

By the way
You left without saying
Goodbye to me
Now that you're gone away
All I can think about is
You and me
You and me

It's not like before
You left nothing here
It's all disappeared
It hurts me to see
That we've been a lie
Would it have hurt you to try?

By the way
You left without saying
Goodbye to me
Now that you're gone away
All I can think about is
You and me
You and me

It's sad to say that
This pain is killing me inside
But it's time to say
That this pain is keeping me alive
Twisting and turning
It rips through my heart
It's been tearing me apart

By the way
You left without saying
Goodbye to me
Now that you're gone away
All I can think about is
You and me
You and me

All i think about now
Is you and me
You and me
All i think about now
Is you and me
You and me

By the way
By the way
By the way


3.Got It Made

No time for a suitcase
Just grab a quick change of clothes
You ask where we're going now honey
Well I'd tell you but nobody knows

So sneak out the back door
Cause you know they'll
try to make you stay
Make sure you got a seat belt on
Cause were headed for the interstate

Were having the best time,
living the fast life
Thinking were just
too damn young to die
Can't wait for next time
to see all the bright lights
To see it all
Driving the fast lane
out on the freeway
Tell us to slow down,
start the car chase
As long as we got each other
we've got it made
We've got it, we've got it,
we've got it made

Pulled over on the side to the road
Going skinny dippin in the dark
Musta left the radio on
We had to push the car
to get it to start

Crusin down on the sunset bend
Went racin on ???? drive
Then we stopped
on the top of the world
Oh I never felt so alive

Were having the best time,
living the fast life
Thinking were just
too damn young to die
Can't wait for next time
to see all the bright lights
To see it all
Driving the fast lane
out on the freeway
Tell us to slow down,
start the car chase
As long as we got each other
we've got it made
We've got it, we've got it,
we've got it made

Now were running on empty
We got nowhere to go
We've been sleeping in the backseat
Just waiting for the sun to show

Blowing cash, explode
Thinking I'm heading home
I can tell by the smile on your face
We still got miles to go

Were having the best time,
living the fast life
Thinking were just
too damn young to die
Can't wait for next time
to see all the bright lights
To see it all
Driving the fast lane
out on the freeway
Tell us to slow down,
start the car chase
As long as we got each other
we've got it made
We've got it, we've got it,
we've got it made
We've got it, we've got it,
we've got it made
We've got it, we've got it,
we've got it made


4.Not Meant To Be

It's never enough to say I'm sorry
It's never enough to say I care
But I'm caught between
what you wanted from me
And knowing that if I give that to you
I might just disappear

Nobody wins when everyone's losing

It's like one step forward
and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, I can't change your mind
I know it's like trying to
turn away one way street
I can't give you what you want
And it's killing me
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be

It's never enough to say I love you
No, it's never enough to say I try
It's hard to believe
That's theres no way out for you and me
And it seems to be
the story of our lives

Nobody wins when everyone's losing

It's like one step forward
and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, I can't change your mind
I know it's like trying
to turn away one way street
I can't give you what you want
And it's killing me
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be

There's still time to turn this around
You could building this up
instead of tearing it down
But I keep thinking
Maybe it's too late

It's like one step forward
and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, I can't change your mind
I know it's like trying to
turn away one way street
I can't give you what you want
And it's killing me
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be

It's like one step forward
and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, baby I'm sorry to see
Maybe we're not meant to be


5.Crutch

Please can I go home now,
I can barely stay awake
But you sit there
with your pride and kill us all.
You have so much fun now
trying to bend me till I break
And I just set myself up
to take the fall.
Your eyes are black as tar
and to look at you is hard
But I'm just too afraid to look away.
Misery loves company and
here you stand in front of me.
Just please don't ask me to stay

So, who do you trust?
Now that you need me to
get through the day
I'm asking too much.
To have you hear what I have to say
So I say

Help me help you,
I'm down on my knees
If you need me so much
then why did you leave
You needed a reason,
you needed too much.
You can lean on me,
but don't lean
On me like I'm your crutch.

You never started loving me
so you could never quit
I could rule this f**kin world
and you'd still think I'm shit
You've turned your back on me,
have no family
In the end the devil gets
what he deserves

So, who do you trust now that you
Need me to get through the day?
I'm asking too much,
To have you hear what I have to say

So I say

Help me help you,
I'm down on my knees
If you need me so much
then why did you leave
You needed a reason,
you needed too much.
You can lean on me,
but don't lean
On me like I'm your crutch.

Please help me. please help me
Please help me. please help me

So, who do you trust now that you
Need me to get through the day?
I'm asking too much,
To have you hear what I have to say

So I say

Help me help you,
I'm down on my knees
If you need me so much
then why did you leave
You needed a reason,
you needed too much.
You can lean on me,
but don't lean
On me like I'm your crutch.

Don't lean on me like
I'm your crutch


6.All Or Nothing

When i first saw you standing there
You know it was
a little hard not to stare
So nervous when i drove you home
I know being apart is
a little hard to bare.

Send some flowers to your work an home
So that i will have you
in my arms again
We kissed that night before i left
And now thats something
I could never forget

You've got all that i need
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it`s you and i
With you i know that
I am good for something
So lets go give it a try
We got our backs against the ocean
It`s just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it`s you and i
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it`s you and i

Lets take a chance go far away today
And never look back again
Since i said i loved you in Las vegas
It`s never been the same since then

You've got all that i need
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it`s you and i
With you i know
I am good for something
So lets go give it a try
We got our backs against the ocean
It`s just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it`s you and i
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it`s you and i

This is it nothing to hide
One more kiss never say goodbye
This is it babe your all mine
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it`s you and i
I know that i am good for something
So lets go give it a try
We got our backs against the ocean
It`s just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it`s you and i
With you i know that
I am good for something
So lets go give it a try

We got our backs against the ocean
It`s just us against the world
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it`s you and i
Looking at all or nothing
Babe it`s you and i
Babe it`s you and i


7.Heaven (Little By Little)

Now don't you be afraid
We can always talk about
No need to medicate
cuz I know you're strong without it
You got me through the days
When I thought I couldn't face it
Let me count the ways
The love we have you can replace it

Just hold on, I'm not that strong

There's a little piece of heaven
Right here where you are
the fact that you keep trying
is what sets you apart.
Help me find the reason
and I'll help you find the way
to get rid of all your pain
little by little, day by day

Now, you're far away
and I'm alone to cry about it
It's not a better place,
when you die and leave me here to say

Hold on, I was never that strong

There's a little piece of heaven
Right here where you are
he fact that you keep trying
is what sets you apart.
Help me find the reason
and I'll help you find the way
to get rid of all your pain
little by little, day by day

You'll get stronger
if you need me, I'm not far away
So, just hold on
I'll help you find a way
I'll help you find the way

There's a little piece of heaven
Right here where you are
the fact that you keep trying
is what sets you apart.
Help me find the reason
and I'll help you find the way
to get rid of all your pain
little by little, day by day


8.Bad Girlfriend

My girlfriends a dick magnet
My girlfriends gotta have it
She's hot, cant stop,
up on stage doing shots
Tip the man he'll right the bell,
get her drunk she'll scream like hell
Dirty girl, gettin' down,
dance with guys from outta town
Grab her ass, actin' tough,
Mess with her, she'll f**k you up
No on really knows if she's drunk
or if she's stoned, but she's comin'
back to my place tonight!

She likes to shake her ass
She grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair
when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down
She's naughty to the end
You know what she is,
no doubt about it
She's a BAD BAD GIRLFRIEND

Red thong, party's on,
love this song, sing along.
Come together, leave alone,
see you later back at home
No one really knows if
shes drunk or is she's stoned
but she's coming back
to my place tonight
I say
No one really knows just
how far shes going to go
but I'm gonna find out later tonight
She likes to shake her ass
She grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair
when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down
She's naughty to the end
You know what she is,
no doubt about it
She's a BAD BAD GIRLFRIEND
Doesn't take her long
to make things right
But does it make her wrong
to have the time of her life
The time of her life
(My girlfriends a dick magnet)
(My girlfriends gotta have it)

Shes a gold digger
Now you figure out its over,
pull the trigger
Futures finished, there it went,
savings gone,
The money spent

I look around and all I see is no good,
bad and ugly, man shes hot fixed to be,
the future ex-Miss Connolly!
She likes to shake her ass
She grinds it to the beat
She likes to pull my hair
when I make her grind her teeth
I like to strip her down
She's naughty to the end
You know what she is,
no doubt about it
She's a BAD BAD GIRLFRIEND

She's a BAD BAD GIRLFRIEND
She's a BAD BAD GIRLFRIEND


9.Hate My Life

So sick of the hobos
Always beggin' for change
I don't like how I gotta work
And they just sit around and get paid

I hate all of the people
Who can't drive their cars
Bitch you better get out of the way
Before I, start falling apart

I hate how my wife
Is always up my ass
She always wants to buy brand new things
But I, don't have the cash

Well I hate my job, all my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end
Nothing turns out right,
there's no end in sight
I hate my life

How come I never get laid?
Nice guys always lose
How could she have another headache?
There's always some kind of excuse

I still hate my job
My boss is a dick
I don't get paid nearly enough
To put up with all of his shit

Well I hate my job, all my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end
Nothing turns out right,
there's no end in sight
I hate my life

I hate that I can't tell
When a girl's underage
And how when I tell her
she's a nice piece of ass
Then her daddy punches me in the face

So if you're pissed like me
Bitches here's what you've gotta do
Put your middle fingers up in the air
Go on and say 'F**k you'

Well I hate my job, all my rich friends
I hate everyone to the bitter end
Nothing turns out right,
there's no end in sight
I hate my life
So much at stake
Can't catch a break
I hate my life

No there's nothing new
And it sucks to be you
I f**king hate my life


10.Little Smirk

If heaven is a place where the angels go,
Well then I've got a story to tell,
If heaven is a place where the angels go,
Then I guess you're
going straight to hell!


Don't wanna leave you now or never,
Cause we're perfect together,
Never wanna be apart,
Dead to take on the simple life.

There was trouble for us
when I came home early,
Never would expect to see this,
Its fit to say
I could not believe my eyes,
You cracked a smile but
had nothing to say,
So I made a list of on
how you're going to pay!

I Locked you out,
Left you naked in the front yard,
Burned all of your clothes,
Having nothing can't be really hard,
Now I'm on the run,
I'd do it all again,
So Catch me if you can,
Cause, I took your car,
With your baby in the back seat,
Cracked your credit card,
Doing ten to deadbeat,
Baby now you know how much it hurts,
When I caught you in the act
wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!

Now I feel better,
But its hard to forget,
I never think about looking back,
Cause time has no meaning
when your free,
This is what you get,
Come on bitch,
Now I see who you really are,
Cause happiness is the best we've had,
But caught red daddy
with a grin on your face,
Didn't think you'd be easy to replace!

I Locked you out,
Left you naked in the front yard,
Burned all of your clothes,
Having nothing can't be really hard,
Now I'm on the run,
I'd do it all again,
So Catch me if you can,
Cause, I took your car,
With your baby in the back seat,
Cracked your credit card,
Doing ten to deadbeat,
Baby now you know how much it hurts,
When I caught you in the act wearing
nothing but a Little Smirk!

Again and again and again
and again and e-yeah....

If heaven is a place
where the angels go,
Well then I've got a story to tell,
If heaven is a place
where the angels go,
Then I know I'm going straight to hell!

I Locked you out,
Left you naked in the front yard,
Burned all of your clothes,
Having nothing can't be really hard,
Now I'm on the run,
I'd do it all again,
So Catch me if you can,
Cause, I took your car,
With your baby in the back seat,
Cracked your credit card,
Doing ten to deadbeat,
Baby now you know how much it hurts,
When I caught you in the act
wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!
Wearing nothing but a Little Smirk!

12.Wait For Me

You are not alone tonight
Imagine me there by your side
It's so hard to be here
so far away from you
I'm counting the days till
I'm finally done
I'm counting them down,
yeah, one by one
It feels like forever
till I return to you
But it helps me on those lonely nights
It's that one thing that keeps me alive

Knowing that you wait for me
Ever so patiently

No one else knows the feeling inside
We hang up the phone
without saying goodnight
Because it's the sound of your voice
that brings me home
It's never been easy to say
But it's easier when I've gone away

Knowing that you wait for me
Ever so patiently
Yeah, you're everything
I've ever dreamed of having and
It's everything I need from you
just knowing that you wait for me

What I'd give
What I'd do
Knowing I'm not there for you
Makes it so hard to leave
What I'd give
What I'd do
Anything to get me home to you
And this time I'll stay

And you wait for me
Ever so patiently
Yeah, you're everything
I've ever dreamed of having and
It's everything I need from you
just knowing that you wait for me


13.Sacrifice

No I don't need a reason
to be breathin
Just here doin what I can
No I don't want a family
who would damn me
and resent everything I am
I don't need to prove to
all the ones who
Feel that I need to fit in
No I won't ever tell you
that i failed you
I'd rather start life over again

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today

No I can see it clearly
Why you feel me
Why you got to bring me down
No I don't want to fight you
Just to spite you
But I'm not afraid to take you out

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today

Everybody expects me to break
but i'll never break down again
Everybody expects me to give up
but you'll never see me givin in
Everybody wants me to lose
but i'll never lose who I am

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today

Everybody expects me to break
but i'll never break down again
Everybody expects me to give up
but you'll never see me givin in
Everybody wants me to lose
but i'll never lose who I am

No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today
No I'm sorry to say
There'll be no sacrifice today
