1. BREATHING BY WIRES
Addicted to razors
Lashes to saviors
Glued to the monitor
Trained behavior
Reduced to a number
Mechanic enslavement
A virtual prison
Selected detainment
A gradual nightmare
Suicidal impulse
A cycle of habit
Undeniable loss
Breathing by wire
A network of heroes
Processing data of ones and zeroes
Carry me through the wires
Bury me in the screen
Shift me into this fixation
Cling to the machine
This i your world now
And you barely made it
Did you think that i would cradle you
Until you were asleep forever?
Did you?
Carry me through the wires
Bury me in the screen
Shift me into this fixation
Cling to the machine
This is your world
And you barely made it
Did you think i could cradle you
Until you were asleep forever?
Did you?

Songwriters: Christy, Lauren; Spock, Scott; Edwards, Graham; Lavigne, Avril Ramona;
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, what you yellin' 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, talkin' to me one on one
But you become
Somebody else
'Round everyone else
Your watchin' your back
Like you can't relax
You tryin' to be cool
You look like a fool to me
Tell me
Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're actin' like you're somebody else
Gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
You fall and you crawl and you break
And you take what you get, and you turn it into
Honestly, you promised 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 ain't where it's at you see
You're makin' me
Laugh out, when you strike a pose
Take off, all your preppy clothes
You know, you're not foolin' anyone
When you become
Somebody else
'Round everyone else
Your watchin' your back
Like you can't relax
You tryin' to be cool
You look like a fool to me
Tell me
Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're actin' like you're somebody else
Gets me frustrated

4. INNOCENCE
[Songwriters: Taubenfeld, Evan David; Lavigne, Avril Ramona;]
Waking up I see that everything is okay
The first time in my life and now it's so great
Slowing down I look around and I am so amazed
I think about the little things that make life great
I wouldn't change a thing about it
This is the best feeling
This innocence is brilliant, I hope that it will stay
This moment is perfect, please don't go away
I need you now
And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by
I found a place so safe, not a single tear
The first time in my life and now it's so clear
Feel calm I belong, I'm so happy here
It's so strong and now I let myself be sincere
I wouldn't change a thing about it
This is the best feeling
This innocence is brilliant, I hope that it will stay
This moment is perfect, please don't go away
I need you now
And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by
It's the state of bliss you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful, it makes you wanna cry
It's the state of bliss you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful, it makes you wanna cry
It's so beautiful, it makes you want to cry
This innocence is brilliant, it makes you want to cry
This innocence is brilliant, please don't go away
'Cause I need you now
And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by
This innocence is brilliant, it's so beautiful, it's so beautiful
This moment is perfect, please don't go away
I need you now, it makes me want to cry
And I'll hold on to it, don't you let it pass you by

5. LOSING GRIP
[Songwriters: Lavigne, Avril; Magness, Clif;]
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
Waitin' outside there
Grinnin' with a lost stare
That's when I decided
Why should I care?
'Cuz you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone
You, you need to listen
I'm startin' to trip
I'm losin' 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
Waitin' outside there
Grinnin' with a lost stare
That's when I decided
Why should I care?
'Cuz you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone
You, you need to listen
I'm startin' to trip
I'm losin' my grip
And I'm in this thing alone
Cryin' out loud
I'm cryin' out, loud
Cryin' out loud
I'm cryin' out
Open your eyes
Open up wide
Why should I care?
'Cuz you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone
Why should I care?
'Cuz 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 goin' anywhere
Why should I care?
'Cuz 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 goin' anywhere

6. DON'T TELL ME
[Songwriters: Lavigne, Avril; Taubenfeld, Evan;]
You held my hand and walked me home
I know
While you gave me that kiss it was something like this
It made me go, oh oh
You wiped my tears, got rid of all my fears
Why did you have to go?
Guess it wasn't enough to take up some of my love
'Cause you're so hard to trust
Did I not tell you that I'm not like that?
You're the one who gives it all away, yeah
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that I was something I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do
Don't try to tell me what to say
Your better off that way
Don't think that your charming the fact that your arm
Is now around my neck
I got you in my pants I'll have to kick your ass
And make you never forget
I'm gonna ask you to stop, thought I liked you a lot
But I'm really upset
Get out of my head, get off of my bed
Yeah, that's what I said
Did I not tell you that I'm not like that
'Cause you're the one who throws it all away
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that I was something I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do
Don't try to tell me what to say
Your better off that way, yeah
This guilt trip that you put me on won't
Mess me up but you're no wrong
Any thoughts of you and me have gone away
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that I was something I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do
Don't try to tell me what to say
Your better off that way, yeah
Better off that way
I'm better off alone anyway

7. MY HAPPY ENDING
Songwriters: Walker, Butch; Lavigne, Avril;
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
So much for my happy ending
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
So much for my happy ending
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh)
Lets talk this over
It's not like we're dead
Was it something I did?
Was it something you said?
Don't leave me hanging
In a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
You were everything, everything
That I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be
But we lost it
All of our memories so close to me
Just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
So much for my happy ending
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
You've got your dumb friends
I know what they say
They tell you I'm difficult
But so are they
But they don't know me
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me
All the stuff that you do?
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
You were everything, everything
That I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be
But we lost it
All of our memories so close to me
Just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
It's nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one
It's nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done
He was everything, everything
That I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be
But we lost it
All of the memories so close to me
Just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
You were everything, everything
That I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be
But we lost it
All of the memories so close to me
Just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
So much for my happy ending
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
So much for my happy ending
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
