From Let Go (2002) by Avril Lavigne

Losing Grip (Lavigne, Magness) - 3:54

Are you aware of what you make me feel, baby?
Right now I feel invisible to you, like I'm not real
Didn't you feel me lock my arms around you?
Why'd you turn away?
Here's what I have to say

I was left to cry there
Waiting outside there
Grinning with a lost stare
That's when I decided

Why should I care?
Cause you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone
You, You need to listen
I'm starting to trip
I'm losing my grip
And I'm in this thing alone

Am I just some chick
You placed beside you
To take somebody's place?
When you turn around
Can you recognize my face?
You used to love me
You used to hug me
But that wasn't the case
Everything wasn't okay

I was left to cry there
Waiting outside there
Grinning with a lost stare
That's when I decided

Why should I care?
Cause you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone
You! You need to listen
I'm starting to trip
I'm losing my grip
And I'm in this thing alone

Crying out loud
I'm crying out loud
Crying out loud
I'm crying out loud

Open your eyes
Open up wide

Why should I care?
Cause you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone

Why should I care?
Cause you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone

Why should I care?
If you don't care
Then I don't care
We're not going anywhere

Why should I care?
Cause you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone

Why should I care?
If you don't care
Then I don't care
We're not going anywhere

Complicated (Lavigne, Matrix) - 4:05

Uh huh, life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh, that's the way it is
Cause life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh that's the way it is

Chill out whatcha yelling' for?
Lay back it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see
I like you the way you are
When we're drivin' in your car
And you're talking to me one on one but you've become

Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're tryin' to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
And promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No no no

You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you're somethin' else
Where you are and where it's at you see
You're making me
Laugh out when you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes
You know you're not fooling anyone
When you've become


Somebody else round everyone else
Watching your back, like you can't relax
Trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And You fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into
Honesty
Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No no no

Chill out whatcha yelling for?
Lay back, it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see

Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back, like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool, you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And You fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into
Honesty
Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No no

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?

Life's like this you
You fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
No no no

Sk8er Boi (Lavigne, Matrix) - 3:24

He was a boy,
She was a girl,
Can I make it any more obvious?
He was a punk,
She did ballet,
What more can i say?

He wanted her,
She'll never tell secretly she wanted him as well,
But all of her friends,
Stuck up their nose,
They had a problem with his baggy clothes.

He was a sk8er boi,
She said see you later boy,
He wasn't good enough for her,
She had a pretty face,
But her head was up in space,
She needed to come back down to earth.

5 years from now,
She sits at home,
Feeding the baby she's all alone,
She turns on TV,
Guess who she sees,
Sk8er boi rockin up MTV.
She calls up her friends,
They already know,
And they've all got
Tickets to see his show.
She tags along,
Stands in the crowd,
Looks up at the man that she turned down.

He was a sk8er boi,
She said see you later boy
He wasn't good enough for her.
Now he's a super star,
Slamming on his guitar,
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?

He was a sk8er boi,
She said see you later boy,
He wasn't good enough for her,
Now he's a super star,
Slamming on his guitar,
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?

[[music]]

Sorry girl but you missed out,
Well tough luck that boy's mine now,
We are more than just good friends,
This is how this story ends.
Too bad that you couldn't see,
See the man that boy could be.
There is more than meets the eye,
I see the soul that is inside.

He's just a boy,
And I'm just a girl,
Can I make it anymore obvious?
We are in love,
Haven't you heard,
How we rock each others world?
(sing 2X)
I'm with the skater boy,
I said see you later boy,
I'll be back stage after the show,
I'll be at the studio,
Singing the song we wrote,
About a girl you used to know.

I'm With You (Lavigne, Matrix) - 3:43

I'm standing on the bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now

There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening, but there's no sound

Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you, take me by the hand, take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I, I'm with you
I'm with you

I'm looking for a place
I'm searching for a face
Is anybody here I know
Cause nothing's going right and
Everythings a mess
And no one likes to be alone

Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you, take me by the hand, take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I, I'm with you
I'm with you

Oh, why is everything so confusing
Maybe I'm just out of my mind
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah
Yeah

It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you, take me by the hand, take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I, I'm with you
I'm with you

Take me by the hand, take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I, I'm with you

I'm with you

Take me by the hand, take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are but I, I'm with you

I'm with you
I'm with you.

Mobile (Lavigne, Magness) - 3:32

Went back home again
This sucks, gotta pack up and leave again
Say goodbye to all my friends
Can't say when I'll be there again
Its time now, I turn around
Turn my back on everything
Turn my back on everything

[chorus]
Everything's changing when I turn around
All out of my control
I'm a mobile
Everything's changing when I turn around
All out of my control
I'm a mobile
Hmmmmmm, yeah (yeah)

Start back at this life
Stretch myself back into the vibe
I'm waking up to say I've tried
Instead of waking up to another TV Guide
Its time now, I turn around
Turn and walk on this crazy ground oh oh oh

[chorus]
Everything's changing when I turn around
All out of my control
I'm a mobile
Everything's changing
Out of what I know
Every where I go
I'm a mobile
I'm a mobile

Hanging from the ceiling
Life's a mobile
Spin around with MiXeD fEeLiNgS
Crazy and wild
Sometimes I wanna scream out loud

Everything's changing everywhere I go
All out of my control
Everything's changing everywhere I go
Out of what I know

Yeah yeah yeah
La la la la la la la la la...

[chorus]
Everything's changing when I turn around
All out of my control
I'm a mobile
Everything's changing
Out of what I know
Every where I go
I'm a mobile

Everywhere I go
I'm a mobile

Unwanted (Lavigne, Magness) - 3:41

All... i did was walk over
Start off by shaking your hand
That's how it went
I had a smile on my face
And I sat up straight

Oh, yeah, yeah
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you

[chorus]
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out!
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up.

Make me go away...

(I'm so unwanted)

No, I just don't understand, why
You won't talk to me

It hurts...
That I'm so unwanted for nothing
Don't talk words against me

I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you

[chorus]
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up
Make me go away
Make me go away

I tried to belong
It didn't seem wrong
My head aches
Its been so long
I'll write this song
If that's what it takes
Yeah

[chorus (2x)]
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You'd just shut me out
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up

Make me go away
Make me go away
Make me go away...

Tomorrow (Breer, Frasca, Lavigne) - 3:48

And I Wanna Believe You
When You Tell Me That It Will Be Okay
Ya, I Try To Believe You
But I Don't

When you say that it's gonna be
It always turns out to be a different way
I try to believe you
Not today, today, today, today, todaaay

[chorus]
I don't know how I'll feel
Tomorrow (tomorrow)
Tomorrow (tomorrow)
I don't know what to say
Tomorrow (tomorrow)
Tomorrow is a different day

Its always been up to you
It's turning around, it's up to me
I'm gonna do what I have to do
Just don't

Give me a little time
Leave me alone a little while
Maybe its not too laaate
Not today, today, today, today, todaaay

[chorus]
I don't know how I'll feel
Tomorrow (tomorrow)
Tomorrow (tomorrow)
I don't know what to say
Tomorrow (tomorrow)
Tomorrow is a different day

Hey, yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah, yeah
And I know I'm not ready
Hey, yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah, yeah
Maybe tomorrow
Hey, yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah, yeah
I'm not readyy
Hey, yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah, yeah
Maybe tomorrow

And I wanna believe you
When you tell me that it will be okay
Ya, I try to believe you
Not today, today, today, today, today
Tomorrow it may change
Tomorrow it may change
Tomorrow it may change
Tomorrow it may change...

Anything But Ordinary (Lavigne, Matrix) - 4:12

Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep
It's my lullaby
Sometimes I drive so fast
Just to feel the danger
I wanna scream
It makes me feel alive

Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

To walk within the lines
Would make my life so boring
I want to know that
I Have been to the extreme
So knock me off my feet
Come on now give it to me
Anything to make me feel alive

Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please.

Let down your defenses
Use no common sense
If you look you will see
That this world is
A beautiful, accident, turbulent,
Succulent, opulent, permanent
No way
I wanna taste it
I don't wanna waste it away

Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep
It's my lullaby

Is it enough?
Is it enough?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please.

Is it enough?
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary please.

Things I'll Never Say (Lavigne, Matrix) - 3:44

La la la la la
[Verse 1]
I'm tugging at my hair
I'm pulling at my clothes
I'm trying to keep my cool
I know it shows
I'm staring at my feet
My cheeks are turning red
I'm searching for the words inside my head
'Cuz I'm feeling nervous
Trying to be so perfect
'Cuz I know you're worth it...you're worth it...yeah

[Chorus]
If I could say what I want to say
I'd say I want to blow you... away
Be with you every night
Am I squeezing you too tight?
If I could say what I want to see
I want to see you go down on one knee...
Marry me today!
Guess I'm wishing my life away...
With these things I'll never say

[Verse 2]
It don't do me any good
It's just a waste of time
What use is it to you, what's on my mind?
If it ain't comin' out
We're not goin' anywhere
So why can't I just tell you that I care?
'Cuz I'm feeling nervous
Trying to be so perfect
'Cuz I know you're worth it...you're worth it...yeah

[Chorus]
If I could say what I want to say
I'd say I want to blow you... away
Be with you every night
Am I squeezing you too tight?
If I could say what I want to see
I want to see you go down on one knee
Marry me today!
Guess I'm wishing my life away...
With these things I'll never say

[Bridge]
What's wrong, with my tongue
These words keep slippin' away...
I stutter...I stumble
Like I've got nothin' to sa-ay...
I'm feelin' nervous
Tryin' to be so perfect
'Cuz I know you're worth it...
You're worth it...yeah

La la la la la la la la la...
La la la la la la la la la...

Guess I'm wishing my life away
With these things I'll never say

If I could say what I want to say
I'd say I want to blow you... away
Be with you every night
Am I squeezing you too tight?
If I could say what I want to see
I want to see you go down on one knee
Marry me today
Guess I'm wishing my life away
With these things I'll never say

With these things I'll never say

My World (Lavigne, Magness) - 3:27

Please tell me what is takin' place,
Cuz I can't seem to find a trace,
Guess it must have got away somehow
Probably cause I always forget,
Everytime someone tells me their name,
It's always gotta be the same.
(In My World)

Never wore cover up,
Always beat the boys up,
Grew up in a five thousand population town,
Made my money by cutting grass,
Got fired by a fried chicken ass,
All in a small town, NAPANEE.

You know I always stay up without sleepin',
And think to myself,
Where do I belong forever,
In whose arms, the time and place

Chorus:
Can't help it if I space in a daze,
My eyes tune out the other way,
I may switch off and go in a daydream,
In this head my thoughts are deep,
Sometimes I can't even speak,
Would someone be and not pretend
I'm off again in my World!

I never spend less than an hour,
Washin' my hair in the shower,
It always takes five hours to make it straight,
So I'll braid it in a zillion braids,
So it may take a friggen day,
There's nothing else better to do anyway.

When you're all alone in the lands of forever,
Lay under the milky way,
On and on it's getting too late out,
I'm not in love this time, this night.

Chorus:
Can't help if I space in a daze,
My eyes tune out the other way,
I may switch off and go in a daydream,
In this head my thoughts are deep,
Sometimes I can't even speak,
Would someone be and not pretend
I'm off again in my World!

(la la la la)

Take some time,
Mellow out,
Party it up,
Don't fall down,
Don't get caught,
Sneak out of the house!

[Chorus:]
Can't help if I space in a daze,
My eyes tune out the other way,
I may switch off and go in a daydream,
In this head my thoughts are deep,
Sometimes I can't even speak,
Would someone be and not pretend
I'm off again in my World!

Can't help if I space in a daze,
My eyes tune out the other way,
I may switch off and go in a daydream,
In this head my thoughts are deep,
Sometimes I can't even speak,
Would someone be and not pretend
I'm off again in my World!

Nobody's Fool (Lavigne, Zizzo) - 3:57

Step up step up (step up)
Step up step up (step up)
Step up step up
Step up

Fall back, take a look at me and you'll see
I'm for real, I feel what only I can feel
And if that don't appeal to you
Let me know and I'll go cuz I flow
Better when my colors show,
And that's the way it has to be.
Honestly, cuz creativity could never bloom in my room
I'd throw it all away before I lie,
So don't call me with a compromise
Hang up the phone I've got a backbone stronger than yours.

(step up) la la... (step up) la la... (step up) La la...
Yeah...
If you're tryin' to turn me into someone else
It's easy to see I'm not down with that
(Not nobody's fool) I'm not nobody's fool
If you're tryin' to turn me into something else
I've seen it enough and I'm over that
(Not nobodys fool) I'm not nobody's fool
If you wanna bring me down
Go ahead and try
Go ahead and try.

Don't know you think you know me like yourself,
But I fear that you're only telling me what I wanna hear
But do you give a damn?
Understand that I can't not be what I am.
I'm not the milk and cheerios in your spoon.
It's not that simple here we go not so soon.
I might have fallen for that when I was fourteen
And a little more green,
But it's amazing what a couple of years could mean.

If you're tryin' to turn me into someone else
It's easy to see I'm not down with that
(Not nobody's fool) I'm not nobody's fool
If you're tryin' to turn me into something else
I've seen it enough and I'm over that
(Not nobodys fool) I'm not nobody's fool.

If you wanna bring me down
Then go ahead and try
Go ahead and try.

Oh...
Go ahead and try
Try to look me in the eye but you'll never see inside
Until you realize (realize)

Things are tryin' to settle down
Just try to figure out
Exactly what I'm about
If it's with or without you I don't need yor doubt in me

If you're tryin' to turn me into someone else
It's easy to see I'm not down with that
(Not nobody's fool) I'm not nobody's fool
If you're tryin' to turn me into something else
I've seen it enough and I'm over that
(Not nobody's fool) I'm not nobody's fool
If you wanna bring me down
Then go ahead and try...

(Go ahead and try) La la... (Go ahead and try) La la...
Yeah...Go ahead and try
You'll be laughing out loud when I'm playin' to my own crowd
Try...

Too Much to Ask (Lavigne, Magness) - 3:46

It's the first time I've ever felt this lonely
I wish someone could cure this pain
It's funny when you think it's gonna work out
'Til ya chose weed over me, you're so lame

I thought you were cool until the point
Up until the point
You didn't call me
When you said you would
Finally figured out you're all the same
Always coming up with some kind of story

Every time I try to make you smile
You're always feelin sorry for yourself
Every time I try to make you laugh,
You can't
You're too tough
You think you're loveless
Is that too much that I'm askin for?

Thought you'd come around when I ignored you
Sorta thought you'd have the decency to change
But babe, I guess you didn't take that warning
'Cause I'm not about, to look at your face again

Can't you see that you lie to yourself?
You can't see the world through a mirror....
It won't be too late when the smoke clears
'Cause I, I am still here

But every time I try to make you smile
You always go on feeling sorry for yourself
Every time I try to make you laugh
You stand like a stone
Alone in your zone
Is that too much that I'm askin for?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Can't find where I am
Lying here
Alone in fear
Afraid of the dark
The one to claim
Alone again

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Can't you see that you lie to yourself?
You can't see the world through a mirror...
It won't be too late when the smoke clears
'Cause I, I am still here

But every time I try to make you smile
You're always feeling sorry for yourself
Every time I try to make you laugh
You can't
You're too tough
You think your loveless
It was too much that I asked him for

Naked (Breer, Frasca, Lavigne) - 3:30

I wake up in the morning,
Put on my face.
The one that's gonna get me,
Through another day.
Doesn't really matter,
How I feel inside.
Life is like a game sometimes...

Then you came around me,
The walls just disappeared.
Nothing to surround me,
Keep me from my fears
I'm unprotected
See how I've opened up
Oh, you've made me trust

Cause I've never felt like this before
I'm naked... around you
Does it show?
You see right through me
And I can't hide
I'm naked... around you
And it feels so right...

I'm trying to remember
Why I was afraid
To be myself
And let the-the covers fall away
Guess I never had
Someone like you
(To help me) To help me fit
In my skin

I've never felt like this before
I'm naked
Around you
Does it show?
You see right through me
And I can't hide
I'm naked
Around you
And it feels so right

I'm naked
Oh oh yeah
Does it show?
Yeah, I'm naked
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh oh
I'm naked around you
Does it show?

I'm so naked around you
And I can't hide
You're gonna, you're gonna see right through....... (see right through
Me and I cant hide)
You're gonna see right through...
Oh yeah

I'm so naked around you
And I can't hide.........
You're gonna see right through baby...
