>From the minute I turned and laid my eyes on you, I had no eyes of my own
I was blind to the world, you were too good to be true
But you were something to see, so very young and alone
And I still don't believe the way you turned on me
Now where's the girl that I knew?
I gave you somewhere to live and then somebody to love
You gave me nothing but trouble, man, I've been such a fool
You gave me nothing at all, now let me give it to you
You taught me how to be cruel, now let me try it on you
How do you abuse me, let me count the ways
How many hours in how many days
How does it amuse you, let me count the pain
How many rules breaking how many games
 Chorus: [
How do you abuse me, let me count the ways
How many hours in how many 
Backlash lyrics

You said you loved me
And you turned & walked away
What'd you think I'm supposed to do
What'd you think I'm supposed to say
You talk about me & you
Play me as a fool
Y'know it's really kind of sad
That you broke my golden rule
I thought I told you once
I guess that just won't do
Y'know it's really such a shame
That I have to stay away from you
Hey M
days
How does it amuse you, let me count the pain
How many rules breaking how many games
You got your ass out of gear and your soul out of whack
Go on and take all your stuff, don't even bother to pack
In every way I want you out of my life
But I'll kill you if you don't come back, I'll kill you if you don't come back
]
In the pit of the night you used to pull me so close
And then you'd hold me so tight
And in the wink of an eye you used to give me it all
And with a kiss in the darkness you'd deliver the light
And in the pit of the night I hear you laughing so loud
I know you're laughing at me
Oh ain't it funny and sad the way I fell for your lies
The way I fell into love and then I begged to be free
You gave me nothing at all, now let me give it to you
You
Necktie Remedy lyrics


I will not forget the day when the sides were chosen
Me against me against...me
Clothing so drenched with sweat
and the teeth they were clenched
Who can I trust when I...

Grabbed hold my enemy's neck
and choked 'till he ceased
Blistered with disbelief I awake dead
And when I awoke I couldn't believe it was me
All the time it was metaught me how to be cruel, now let me try it on you
chorus
Somebody bless all the girls in the sand on the beach
They're dreamin' of boys and staying just out of reach
Bless all the cheerleaders down on the track
They're glistening like diamonds with sweat on their backs
Bless all the girls in the gangs on the street
They're looking for danger and they're holding their piece
Bless all the girls staying late after school
They're playing with fire and oh they're playing it cool
And bless all the shy girls who're learning to dance
They stare in the mirror and they conjure romance
Bless all the girls who are always alone
They kneel down in prayer and they wait up by the phone
Bless all the homecoming queens of the night
They're looking for magic in gymnasium li
American Girl lyrics


[Verse 1:]
Mmm
I'm watchin' day time TV
I'm young and I'm restless
I'm on no sunset beach
I'm burnin up in here in Texas
Paranoia on day street
Not enuf to eat
Too many burgers and these fries 
Are makin me crazy

[Pre-Hook:]
It's kinda strange growin' up here
Never less safe but don't be afraid
You gotta 
ghts
And bless all the girls who know what love is about
They try not to cry and then they try to put out
And bless all the homecoming queens of the night
They're looking for magic in gymnasium lights
And bless all the girls who know what love is about
They try not to cry and then they try to put out
Somebody bless all these girls that I never have met
But damn you and curse you after all that you've done
You're the one girl I'll never forget
You're the one girl I'll never forget
Somebody bless all these girls and everything that they do
But damn me and curse me for still needing you
And I'll kill you if you don't come back
I'll kill you if you don't come back (repeats out)
