Some kids try too hard to be what their friends say they should
Take the case of Jodie, who did all that she could
Tried so hard she gave up her own personality
But Jodie knew exactly who she wanted to be
DK shirt and Converse shoes, chains and studs too
Patch-covered little jacket, and a beanie colored blue
Pushing, shoving, now Jodie's rockin' in the pit
Such a dramatic change in her it makes me sick
CHORUS:
(But then the)
Next thing you know, Jodie's out gettin' a tattoo
It'll go with all her piercings, now she's up to two
Then she's ditchin' school and spikin' up her hairdo
But all she says is 'I'm a punk and that's what punks do.'
BRIDGE:
Just be yourself, that's good enough for you
Don't give us another thought, do what you're gonna do
Just be yourself, that's good enough for you
Don't give us another thought, do what you're gonna do
And now she's a fixture at all of the punk shows
Showin' off her tattoo and the piercing in her nose
Jodie's got her pink hair and a bad attitude
But that's okay 'cause she's a punk and that's what punks do.

Human Race

Well here I go, I'm just a girl
On a road to a far away place
Nobody knows just where it goes while I'm here
I just want to say
You gotta pace human race or you'll lose control
Do you see what I mean when you hear what I say?
You want to get through the door, but you can't find the key
Hey friends please listen to me
Cause everybody's all the same
And everybody wants to know
Who they are
And where they're gonna go
It's not who wins, It's how you play the game
I raise the flag
I give the call
But now I see
That no one's listening at all
I can't see ahead
I won't look behind
Now all I've got
Is what's in front of me

Same Friends

Yeah, I remember when I was young
You used to hold my hand
And when I felt like giving up
You'd always understand
I never had to figure out
Why you raised me up that way
So, now I want to let you know
Right now, I want to say
Look at you, look at me
It's hard to believe
We're still the same friends
That we always used to be
Time slips away but we move on
As if we'll never part
And I hope things stay this way forever
Yeah, we just can't lose that spark
As I recall the days gone by
The story doesn't change
And if we closed the book today
Life would seem so strange
So, now I stand here looking up
Proud to bear this name
The way I want to show my gratitude
Is to exclaim

Another Night

Another night I fall asleep while waiting for your call
You had always promised me you'd give this your all
But now I lie asleep without you by my side
Another night of lonely dreams, another night of lies
Strangle your thoughts and gouge out your eyes
Silence is a welcome friend when all you've got are lies
Dismantle your whole world and open your mind
Find yourself a new place, but don't follow me into mine
Show me a better you. Give me some truth
Hope has long been defeated. I've given up on you
Your life is nearly destroyed and lies in ruins at your feet
Spread your wings and leave this place and don't follow me
What are you crying for?
This is what you wanted.
What are you crying for?
This is what you wanted.
You left me, now
I thought you didn't care
Don't you cry for me
Like you wish I were there
What are you crying for?
What are you crying for?
What are you crying for?
This is what you wanted.
