Nobody else could ever know

The part of me that can't let go

And I would give everything I own

Give up my life, my heart, my home

I would give everything I own

Just to have you once again

Just to have you once again

Is there someone you know

You're loving them so

But taking them all for granted

You may lose them one day

Someone takes them away

And they don't hear the words

you long to say

I would give everything I own

Give up my life, my heart, my home

I would give anything I own

Just to have you

I gotta have you

I would give everything I own

Everything I own

Give up my life, my heart, my home

I would give everything I own

Everything, everything I own

-Just to have you

-Just to have you

I would give everything I own

Give up my life, my heart, my home

I would give everything I own

Give up my life, my heart, my home

I would give

Everything, everything I own

Everything, everything I own

Everything, everything I own

Everything, everything l

Own

(ALL CHEERlNG)

(WHOOPING)

Dude! That was sick!

The whole thing with Ben singing

the song, I swear, I didn't know.

I know. I know.

That... They were ridiculously good!

Who are you? You are...

-Mom.

-Where do you come from?

Cute lead singer I hope to make

my girlfriend is actually laughing at me.

All right. Fine.

It's time to leave.

And the winner of this year's Bandslam is...

From Greenwich High School in

Greenwich, Connecticut, The Daze!

MAN 1:
Over here, please.

MAN 2:
Can we get a smiley one right here?

MAN 3:
One more.

WOMAN:
$10,000.

(SlNGlNG) The part of me that can't let go

Forget The Daze,

these guys rocked harder than anybody.

GlRL:
You should post it.

(SlNGlNG) Give up my life,

my heart, my home

(WHAT LlGHT PLAYlNG)

If you feel like singing a song

And you want other people to sing along

Then just sing what you feel

Don't let anyone say it's wrong

And if you're trying to paint a picture

But you're not sure which colors belong

Just paint what you see

Don't let anyone say it's wrong

Hey!

Kyra17-1, what's up?

I told you, the dash is silent.

Or stung awake in the night

It's all right to be frightened

When there's a light

What light?

There's a light

What light?

There's a light

White light

There's a light

White light

Well, there's a light

One light

There's a light

White light

And there's a light

DAVlD BOWlE:
Dear Will Burton,

it says on your MySpace page

that you manage I Can't Go On, I'll Go On.

Nice name.

I really like your band.

You know, I'm starting an indie label.

Are you signed to anyone?

Maybe we can sit down and have a chat.

Oh, my God!

(WHOOPING)

(DOGS BARKlNG)

All the best,

David Bowie.

White light

Well, there's a light

White light

There's a light

White light

There's a light

White light

There's a light

-Hey.

-Hey.

CHARLOTTE:
Smile.

-Hey.

-Hey.

-You look great.

-Thanks.

It's my new makeup,

"l Can't Wear Blush, I'll Wear Blush."

BEN:
Hey, you got room for one more?

BUG:
No!

BEN:
Shotgun.

BUG:
No way.

I called shotgun like an hour ago.

(CORVETTE PLAYlNG)

Don't it blow your mind?

Don't it blow your mind like the first time?

Circle of voices

in a crowded room

Plays in my head

so out of time

Kill me with kindness

never enough I find

Don't it blow your mind?

Don't it blow your mind again?

Don't it blow your mind for the third time?

The dream is never over

The dream is never over

Envision a future still in black and white

Colors of youth run into gold

Blue is for sorrow,

red is for sadder light

Don't it blow your mind?

Don't it blow your mind again?

Don't it blow your mind for the third time?

The dream is never over

The dream is never over

(WHERE ARE YOU NOW PLAYlNG)

To my favorite teacher

Told me never give up

To my fifth grade crush

Who I thought I really loved

To the guys I miss

and the girls we kissed

Where are you now?

To my ex-best friends

Don't know how we grew apart

To my favorite band

And sing-alongs in my car

To the face I see

in my memories

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

'Cause I'm thinking of you

You showed me how

How to live like I do

If it wasn't for you

I would never be who I am

To my first girlfriend

I thought for sure

was the one

To my last girlfriend

Sorry that I screwed it up

To the ones I loved

Didn't show it enough

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

'Cause I'm thinking of you

You showed me how

How to live like I do

If it wasn't for you

I would never be who I am

I know we'll never see

those days again

And things will never

be that way again

But that's just how it goes

People change but I know

I won't forget you

To the ones who cared

And who were there

from the start

To the love that left

And took a piece of my heart

To the few who'd swear

They'd never go anywhere

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

'Cause I'm thinking of you

You showed me how

How to live like I do

If it wasn't for you

I would never be who I am

If it wasn't for you

I would never be who I am

If it wasn't for you

I'd be nothing

Where are you now?
