Hoobastank - You're the One Lyrics

You're the One Lyrics - Hoobastank

Tonight I'm letting go
Of all the old excuses
The fears I built so close
Cause inside I've always known
That no one else could ever do
Or ever feel like home

There's so many things I'll never know
But this I know for sure

You're the one
I need you more than ever
It's taken too long
Taken to long to say

My life began
The night we spent together
Now I cannot live
I'd die any other way

I'm not afraid

You're the one

It's hasn't always been
The best of times
But if you'd ask
I'd do it all again

(Are you ready to begin)

I'm ready to begin
A brand new chapter of our lives
Just tell me where and when

(A brand new chapter in our lives)

Cause there's so many things I'll never know
But this I know for sure

You're the one
I need you more than ever
It's taken too long
Taken too long to say

My life began
The night we spent together
Now I can not live
I'd die any other way
I'm not afraid

You're the one

(Instrumental)

You're the one
Who understands
Who makes me better than I am
I do it all because of you
When all we had
Had come undone
You stood and fought
And didn't run
You're the one who
Pulled us through

You're the one
I feel it more than ever
It's taken too long
Taken too long to say

Our lives began
The night we spent together
Now I can not live
I'd die any other way

I'm not afraid
You're the one

Hoobastank - You Need To Be Here Lyrics

You Need To Be Here Lyrics - Hoobastank

(Whispering) I feel the wind rush across my face

I feel the wind rush across my face
Like an invisible wave crashing over me
I started holding my breath the moment I left
Wondering what the day was gonna bring for me

But there is no way that I could ever prepare
For the scope of it all for the chill in the air
The cold of the rain the warmth of the day
I'm never gonna be the same

The whole world's racing by
And no words can describe
How this feels inside
You need to be here
You need to be here with me
They come and go so fast
These moments never last
So you need to be here
You need to be here with me

It's something new and beyond every corner is a mystery
Cause every road that I have taken can never be mistaken
For the one that is now under my feet
And I realize with open eyes
Every second that we have is once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime

The whole world's racing by
And no words can describe
How this feels inside
You need to be here
You need to be here with me
They come and go so fast
These moments never last
(They never last)
So you need to be here
You need to be here with me

Cause something is incomplete
Not quite how is should be
And I try and I try just to live in the moment
But everything I do
Just leads me back to you
Cause there is no substitute

The whole world is racing by
And no words can describe
How this feels inside
You need to be here
You need to be here with me
They come and go so fast
These moments never last
So you need to be here
You need to be here with me

Hoobastank - You Before Me Lyrics

You Before Me Lyrics - Hoobastank

Tell me everything you need
All the secrets that you keep
Even if it takes all day
Even if it takes all night
I can put the world on hold
So you and I can be alone
Even if it takes all day
Even if it takes all night
I would do anything for you
I always will put you before me
You before me
And everything I'll ask of you
I always will put you before me
You before me
Lay your head down next to mine
By your side I feel alive
Tell me that you'll stay all day
Tell me that you'll stay all night
I would do anything for you
I always will put you before me
You before me
And everything I'll ask of you
I always will put you before me
You before me
Say the word and I'll be there
Say the word and I'll be there
Tell me everything you need
All the secrets we can keep
Even if it takes all day
Even if it takes all night
I would do anything for you
I always will put you before me
You before me
And everything I'll ask of you
I always will put you before me
You before me
Say the word and I'll be there.

Hoobastank - Without A Fight Lyrics

Without A Fight Lyrics - Hoobastank

WHOOHOOW

WAKE UP, Our life is calling! We're smoking, but not on fire!
Give us a sign that we're alive!

STEP OUT of indecision! How we've been hypnotized!
To think that everything's all right!

The clock is counting down... The clock is counting down!
The seconds tick away... The seconds tick away!

This is our time! Without a doubt!
Time to ignite! We're not going down!
(Without a fight)

This is our time! Get up off the ground!
Take what is mine! We're not going down,
Without a fight!

LET'S GO, the curtain's open! Get this show on the road!
I want to feel my heart explode!

NO MORE pro-crastination! Tracking my feet below! ?
Now I want everyone to know!

The clock is counting down... The clock is counting down!
The seconds tick away... The seconds tick away!

This is our time! Without a doubt!
Time to ignite! We're not going down!
(Without a fight)

This is our time! Get up off the ground!
Take what is mine! We're not going down,
Without a fight!

YEAH! COME ON! COME ON! COME ON!

COME ON! COME ON! COME ON!

We must pick up the pace! No time to play it safe!
Before you know it's much too late!

This is our time! Without a doubt!
Time to ignite! We're not going down!
(Without a fight)

This is our time! Get up off the ground!
Take what is mine! We're not going down,
Without a fight!

FIGHT! [16x]

WHOOOOOOOOOOO-hoow... hahaha

Hoobastank - Who The Hell Am I_ Lyrics

Who The Hell Am I? Lyrics - Hoobastank

*Screams yeah*

No more lying to myself
Pretending to myself
And now I'm hiding how I feel behind a smile
Living in constant self denial

There's something I need to say

No more running from my fights
And no more giving up when I know I'm right
Sick of trying to fit in
Wondering what I could have been

There's something I need to say
It's growing everyday
Things are going to change

I wont apologize
For who I've come to be
'Cause who the hell am I
If I can't be me?
I've wasted too much time
On insecurities
'Cause who the hell am I
If I can't be me?

No more need to justify
Everything I do, everything I like
No more blood from biting my tongue
Too afraid to upset anyone

There's something I need to say

No more guilt for what I see
You're the mirror staring back at me

There's something I need to say
It's growing everyday
Things are going to change

I wont apologize
For who I come to be
'Cause who the hell am I
If I can't be me?
I've wasted too much time
On insecurities
'Cause who the hell am I
If I can't be me?

And it feels like I am naked
Stripped for you to see
My scars and imperfections

But you don't seem to notice
'Cause you're too busy covering up your bruises and cuts
From who knows what
Just like me

So why apologize
For who I've come to be
'Cause who the hell am I
If I can't be me?
I've wasted too much time
On insecurities
'Cause this is who I am and that's fine with me.

Hoobastank - What I Meant To Say Lyrics

What I Meant To Say Lyrics - Hoobastank

Come and watch the sunrise, watch the sunrise with me
Forget about the last night and the whole ordeal
'Cause I can say some dumb things, some fuckin' dumb things true
But sometimes what I say isn't how I really feel...

Let's go take a walk babe, take a walk to nowhere
Somewhere we can talk babe, Only you and me
Don't know what I was thinking, I guess the drinking got me
'Cause sometimes what I say isn't how I really feel...

What I meant to say last night is I never want to be without you
Whoa! that's what I meant to say
When you walked away last night I knew I couldn't make it without you
That's what I meant to say...

I know it's not the first time that I drove you crazy
It's probably not the last time that you'll want to leave
'Cause I can say some dumb things, say some fuckin' dumb things true
But sometimes what I say isn't how I really fell...

Hoobastank - What Happened To Us_ Lyrics

What Happened To Us? Lyrics - Hoobastank

I thought it was too good to be true
I found somebody who understands me
Someone who would help me to get through
And fill the emptiness I had inside me
But you kept inside and I just denied some things that we should have both said
I knew it was too good to be true
'Cause I'm the only one who understands me...
[Chorus]
What happened to us? We used to be so perfect, now we're lost and lonely
What happened to us? And deep inside I wonder, Did I lose my only?
Remember they thought we were too young To really know what it takes to make it But we had survived off what we had done
And we could show them all that they're mistaken But who could have known, the lies that would grow, until we could see right through them
Remember they knew we were too young We still don't know what it takes to make it.
[Chorus]
What happened to us? We used to be so perfect, now we're lost and lonely
What happened to us? And deep inside I wonder, Did I lose my only?
We could have made it work, we could have found a way We should have done our best to see another day
But we kept it all inside Until it was too late and now we're all alone, the consequence we pay for throwing it all away, for throwing it all away...
[Chorus]
What happened to us? We used to be so perfect, now we're lost and lonely
What happened to us? And deep inside I wonder, Did I lose my only?

What Happened to us?(repeat 4x)

Hoobastank - Waiting Lyrics

Waiting Lyrics - Hoobastank

I don't care what you think or say,
It does'nt matter what yo think it takes
I'am going to do what I came here to do so you better move.

Cause I'am prepared to lose it all
I'am not afraid of how far I might fall
as long as I've done everthing i could.

Cause I've waited so long for my time to come
And I've waited so long to open the door,

And now it's finally opened up
And all this time I thought it was dark shut
Cant wait around to see when it will close
I don't want to know
I know that I've gotta make a move I did'nt to come this far to not go through
I know exactly what I have to do.

Cause I've waited so long for my time to come
And i've waited so long to open the door
And I know in the end I may never be here again
So i'am not going to wait anymore.
No!!

One shot is all I've got,
One shot is all I've got
So I'll hope that my aim is straight and true.

Cause I've waited so long for my time to come
And I've waited so long to open the door,
And I know in the end I may never be here again,
So I'am not going to wait anymore,
No I'am not going wait anymore

One shot is all I've got, One shot is all I've got.

Hoobastank - Up And Gone Lyrics

Up And Gone Lyrics - Hoobastank

Staring at the white above
Can't tell if I'm alive or am I dead
Or is it in my head?
Where'd I go wrong
Staring at the white above
One day I closed my eyes and here I am
A cold, unhappy man
I've come to realize the life I have I hate
The pulse I need is slowly fading
Until I've lost it all
I've been waiting for an inspiration
For a chance I never got to take
Before it's much too late
Where'd I go wrong
Where's the boy that used to run?
Could it be he's up and gone away?
He seems so far away
And all the things I could have done
Could it be they've up and gone away?
They seem so far away
It feels as if the boy in me
Has left and been replaced with a cheap and bitter
Imposter of myself
I must find the one that used to be
Approach him slow, don't be afraid to say
"Can he come out and play?"
Where'd I go wrong
Staring at the sky above
I've found a chance I'm finally going to take
I've learned from my mistakes
Where'd I go wrong

Hoobastank - Unaffected Lyrics

Unaffected Lyrics - Hoobastank

[1st verse:]

There never seems to be
Because what i believe
A moment i'm not trying
To show them who i am
Why can't they understand
The things that they're denying?

They're denying.....

[chorus:]

So what should i do
Just lay next to you
As though i'm unaffected
And who should i be
When they're judging me
As though i'm unaffected?

[2nd verse:]

A chance they'd never give
To ever want to live
The life that i am made of
There's nothing left to prove
My heart's forever true
What is it they're afraid of?

Afraid of.....

[chorus:]

So what should i do
Just lay next to you
As though i'm unaffected
And who should i be
When they're judging me
As though i'm unaffected?

Before they even say my face
The knew that i was not the same
And decided i was not the one for you
For you.....

So what should i do?
I'm not unaffected
And who should i be?
I'm not unaffected

[chorus:]

So what should i do
Just lay next to you
As though i'm unaffected
And who should i be
When they're judging me
As though i'm unaffected?

Unaffected...[repeat 4 times]

Hoobastank - Too Little Too Late Lyrics

Too Little Too Late Lyrics - Hoobastank

I've been so long in waiting
Putting my life on hold for this
Chance to live out my dreams
You think you know what I should
Do with the choices I now have
Make them benefit you
What if I don't wanna hear the things you say
Where were you when I was needy yesterday
You want in with me, now that it's good
But it's too little, too late
Time and again I've asked you
Just for some light to show the way
I was in total darkness
You act like I owe you something
But I don't owe anything to anyone but me
Have you no dignity?
What if I don't wanna hear the things you say
Where were you when I was needy yesterday
You want in with me, now that it's good
Where were you yesterday?
What if I don't wanna hear the things you say
Where were you when I was needy yesterday
You want in with me, now that it's good
But it's too little, too late
You're too late
I know exactly what I'll
Do with the advice that you gave
Watch me throw it all away
What if I don't wanna hear the things you say
Where were you when I was needy yesterday
You want in with me, now that it's good
Where were you yesterday?
What if I don't wanna hear the things you say
Where were you when I was needy yesterday
You want in with me, now that it's good
But it's too little, too late
But it's too little, too late
But it's too little, too late

Hoobastank - To Be With You Lyrics

To Be With You Lyrics - Hoobastank

Make me feel again
Slide across my skin again
Let me uncover you to rediscover you
And I will open up
If you promise to give in
On this perfect night
Let the two of us be one
We will be again another time
No matter what all the others say
Cause I would leave it all so far behind
Just to be with you today
So make me feel again
Feel your every breath again
Nevermind everyone
There's only me and you
We will be again another time
No matter what all the others say
Cause I would leave it all so far behind
Just to be with you today
Just to be with you today
Just to be with you today
Just to be with you
We will be again another time
No matter what all the others say
Cause I would leave it all so far behind
Just to be with you today
So we will be again another time
And I will do all I need to do
To leave the others all so far behind
Just so I can be
Just so I can be....
....With you, with you, with you, with you....

Hoobastank - Tin Walls Lyrics

Tin Walls Lyrics - Hoobastank

There was a vacancy in the place
Where my dad should be
Do other children feel this way
I cried out so loud for him
Who knows where he could have been
I know that I will not be the same
Take me away from all this pain
Just give me chance to escape these tin walls
Cause I know these walls won't last forever
Some day I'll escape these tin walls
Surrounded but all alone
And trapped by this rootless home
Where will the wind take me today
Cause I was just so confused
With nothing that I could do
I'll show them all I could one day
Take me away from all this pain
Just give me chance to escape these tin walls
Cause I know these walls won't last forever
Some day I'll escape these tin walls
And someday we'll leave this park of decay
When's that day
When will we go
When will I laugh
What will I do
Where will I go when all this is through
When will I laugh
What will I do?
I know it won't last
Know it won't last forever

Hoobastank - This Is Gonna Hurt Lyrics

This Is Gonna Hurt Lyrics - Hoobastank

I've been living for too long
With a feeling something's wrong
Like a thorn stuck in my side
Just out of reach for me to pull it out
Now the picture's crystal clear
I can see that the end is near
We no longer to have pretend
All things have got to come to an end

[Chorus:]
This is gonna hurt
This is gonna hurt you
This is gonna hurt you
More than it hurts me.
And I don't wanna hurt
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be.

And they say what doesn't kill you
Well, I'm sure you know the rest
If you'd shut up for a second
I could get this off my chest
Cause I've been though way too much
And we've grown so out if touch
Now we can't see eye to eye
It's time to kiss it goodbye.

[Chorus:]
This is gonna hurt
This is gonna hurt you
This is gonna hurt you
More than it hurts me.
And I don't wanna hurt
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be.

This is gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be
This is gonna hurt you

Can't you see the writing on the wall?
One more step before I end it all.
Closing my eyes, holding my breath,
Finish it now, get it over with.
Can't you see the writing on the wall?
One more step before I end it all.
Closing my eyes, holding my breath,
Finish it now, get it over with.

[Chorus:]
This is gonna hurt
This is gonna hurt you
This is gonna hurt you
More than it hurts me.
And I don't wanna hurt
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be

The Rules Lyrics - Hoobastank

All you people listen up!
You are incapable of rational thought!
You will not think!
You will not move!
You will not clinch!
You will not have random synapse in your brain housing group! ?
Is that clear?
Sir, yes, Sir!
If I give the word, you will move!
If I do not give the word, you will not carry on random thoughts, is that clear?
Sir, yes, Sir!
You will not tell me what you think!
I don't care what you think!
What you think is irrelevant!
Lock your bodies, and stand by for command!

Hoobastank - The Reason Lyrics

The Reason Lyrics - Hoobastank

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do

But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found out a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear

I've found out a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is You [x4]

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found out a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

I've found out a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

Hoobastank - The Pressure Lyrics

The Pressure Lyrics - Hoobastank

I can still remember when
At the tender age of ten
Mother told me I could be anything at all
Then when I was seventeen
Someone made that choice for me
And if I disagreed
I would end up on the street
Out on the street

We've been told for all our lives
This is who you have to be
Close your eyes, go back to sleep
Don't ask questions
Don't ask why
Just do exactly as they say
But I don't think that I can take
The pressure
The pressure

Looking back at twenty-one
I just wanted to have fun
But first I had to go make a name for myself
Now lately everywhere I go
Somebody wants to know
If something's wrong with me
Because I'm not like them
I'm not like them

We've been told for all our lives
This is who you have to be
Close your eyes, go back to sleep
Don't ask questions
Don't ask why
Just do exactly as they say
But I don't think that I can take
The pressure
The pressure
The pressure
The pressure

Tired of justifying who I am
I long to ask for something
More than what we've all been told to
Do you think there's something wrong with me

We've been told for all our lives
This is who you have to be
Close your eyes, go back to sleep
Don't ask questions
Don't ask why
Just do exactly as they say
But I don't think that I can take
The pressure
The pressure
The pressure
The pressure

Hoobastank - The Mirror Lyrics

The Mirror Lyrics - Hoobastank

Is it shame?
Is it greed?
Is it something that I need?
To make me feel so strong to the other ones
Is it real?
Is it true?
All the trouble I go through
Is it just a way, to show
(trying so hard, but still I get nothing)
That I don't have the strength to show
But the mirror will always know
I've got to let go
Is it them?
Is it me?
I'm just too occupied to see
Afraid to look within to the real one
Can it be that I am scared
To share the parts I've never shared?
Or is it just a way, to show
(trying so hard, but still I get nothing)
You won't get inside my head cause I won't let you go
To see that I'm crying out for you to
Know what I want to say
I've got to let you know
That I want to say
I've just got to tell you

Hoobastank - The Letter Lyrics

The Letter Lyrics - Hoobastank

Meet me there at midnight
Same place we always go
You're absolutely sure he doesn't know
Those words jump off the letter
That I found behind our bed
Haunting me they echo in my head
In my head.

It's too late to try and work it out
There's no way to turn this thing around
It's all there in the letter that I've found
I've memorized it line for line
Too bad that letter isn't mine, no

When can I then see you
I've been counting the days
I promise you our secret will be safe
No I just can't continue
Reading thru my tears
The meaning of the letter is so clear
So clear

It's too late to try and work it out.
There's no way to turn this thing around
It's so hard, there in the letter that I've found
I've memorized it line by line
Too bad that letter isn't mine.

U wanted me to find it
Never tried to hide it
The writing never fades those words are here to stay
I hope u find this letter
Writing you today
These will be the last words that I say

It's too late to try and work it out
There's no way to turn this thing around
It's all here in this letter that you've found
It's too late to try and work it out
There's no way to turn this thing around
It's so hard, there in this letter that you've found.
So memorize it line for line
I wont be there to say goodbye.
