Song Lyrics

 |
|
I didn't know what else to put on my final page so I decided to type out the lyrics to three of my favorite
songs. Two are Good Charlotte and the other one is Broken Yoke. The first one is called "Emotionless" by Good Charlotte
(The Young And The Hopeless), "WorldWide Waldorf" by Good Charlotte (Good Charlotte) and "Broken Wings" by Broken Yoke (Destiny)

Hey dad I'm writing to you. Not to tell you that I still hate you. Just to ask you how you feel. And how we fell apart
how this fell apart. Are yo happy out there in this great wide world? Do you think about your sons? Do you miss your little
girl? When you lay your head down how do you sleep at night? Do you even wonder if we're alright? We're alright, we're alright.
It's been a long hard road without you by my side. Why weren't you there all the nights that we cried. You broke
my mother's heart, you broke your children for life. It's not okay but we're alright. I remember the days you were a hero
in my eyes. But those are just a long lost memory of mine. I spent so many years learning how to survive. Now I am writing
just to let you know I'm still alive. The days I spent so cold, so hungry, were full of hate. I was so angry, the scars run
deep inside this tattooed body. There's things I'll take to my grave. But I'm okay, I'm okay. It's been a long hard
road without you by my side. Why weren't you there all the nights that we cried. You broke my mother's heart, you broke
your children for life. It's not okay, but we're alright. I remember the days you were a hero in my eyes but those are just
a long lost memory of mine. Now I am writing just to let you know I'm still alive. And sometimes I forgive, yeah and this
time I'll admit. That I miss you, said I miss you. It's been a long hard road without you by my side. Why weren't yuo there
all the nights we cried. You broke my mother's heart you broke your children for life. It's not okay but we're alright. I
remember the days you were a hero in my eyes. But those are just a long lost memory of mine. Now I am writing just to let
you know I'm still alive. And sometimes I forgive, yeah and this time I'll admit. That I miss you, I miss you...hey Dad.

Listen up 'cause there ain't nothin' funny. I wanna hot girl and a little bit of money. I wanna little house where my
band can live 'cause we're tired of movin' every other weekend. I wanna go to parties where they got no guns, I wanna rock
with my band I wanna have a little fun, Where thugs and punks and any other type. Can sing this song and up sing it all night.
Everything's gonna be alright now, Everything's gonna be alright. Get down stay up all nigth now, Let's do this one more time.
Everything'll be alright, Everything will be alright, alright. All I wanna do it get my share. All I wanna do is kick the
welfare. All I wanna do is get my share. All I wanna do is kick the welfare. And I don't wanna run for the president, I just
want an honest way to pay my rent. And I'm tired of the man always shuttin' us down, Tired of my old man cause he's never
around. And I'm tired of eating off of other people's plates. And I don't look important so they're telling me to wait. Police
records said they wouldn't exist. I wanna know the meaning of a Christmas list. Said all I wanna do is kick the welfare, All
I wanna do is get my share. All I wanna do is make somethin' from nothin', It's GC baby and we're workin' with somethin'.
We'll be self-made millionaires, These lives we'll lead without a care, oh yeah, and we'll see what we'll be. Everything's
gonna be alright now, Everybody say ah yeah that's right. Everything's gonna be alright now, now. Everybody say it one more
time. Everything will be alright, alright. We'll see you when we get there. We'll see you when we get there. On the video,
or the radio, In the magazines, on the movie screens.

Another heartbreak closes in on me. Disappointment clouds my destiny. I am confined by what lives inside of me. I am a
prisoner, come and set me free. I can't fly with these broken wings. I will no longer live inside. Live inside these dreams.
When fear surrounds me. And doubt consumes my soul. I will lift my eyes. And look unto the one who's in control. This situation
has got the best of me. These circumstances can't be what they seem. Understanding, I'm trying to believe. But I must hold
fast to what I cannot see. God, sometimes I try to understand you. Sometimes I try to analyze you. But just when I think that
I've come. To the point that I've comprehended. The course is changed. And my mind's suspended. I want to know you. I need
to know you. But still I feel I'm all alone. How can I be so far from you. Help me understand. Mend this broken man. Take
me to your land. Let me live again. Cause where you take me I may not see. And how I get there, Lord, it ain't up to me. Cause
I will go where you lead. With no doubt or hesitation. Cause soon I'll be there. And I'll complete my destination. So
take this mortal man and give direction. Give me the very strength I need. To press on toward the resurrection. Give me fait
to kepe my soul. As I look to the one who's in control.

Benji- There is nothing I could write to show you how lucky I feel to be here and how much I appreciate all of this.
God is good to me even when I stray away and my friends are more like family. There are people I would take a bullet for and
people I would like to put a bullet in. I guess I can only say that the past few years have been the best of my life. The
good, the bad, all of it. If it all ends today I'm still one of the luckiest guys alive. I love my band, I love my dogg, I
love my family, I love my friends, I love punk rock, I love my life ...thanx.
Paul- The people who contributed to the "growing up" I've gone through with this album. God, you never cease
to amaze me. My family, you are everything to me. Eric Valentine, a true mentor. California, for all the wonderful things
that exist there. And all my boys at home for still making fun of me and keeping me in check. Benji, Joel and Billy, you are
my brothers. Steve, Mike, Gart & Frankie- we make a sick team! Lastly, all the fans that come out to the shows and rock
out with us ...we would not be here without ya'll...Thank you.
Billy- God, my mom and dad, Sarah and the rest of my family and extended family. Eric Valentine for his talents
and dedication to this album..Benji, Joel and Pual, for being a part of one of my proudest accomplishments in my life, so
