	i love this song! to me i just think about how everyone's trying to grow up to fast. when all you really need to do is calm down, enjoy life, and take it 1 step at a time.

No Picture kyle Average	#5 by kyle burnett at Sep 29, 2007 at 2:00 AM EST
	is it math or man, because math doesn't really make sense since she wouldn't get A's if she couldn't get help

	it's math, and yeah she could get an A every now and then just not that often

	I think this song is about how we need sometimes to be confronted "head on collision" to wake us up from our own lives. We can get in such a rut and its time to shake it up!

	He was a simple boy, he just liked to have fun He never wanted to be just like his dad was He was a dreamer but he had never had none Who made the most of his life but never had one He was a single boy he could never slow down He always wanted to leave but didn't know how He was a dreamer who seemed to never break ground Who spent most of his life in a small town Shake up my life Lets go... Back to the days when we were young and all restless We still believed in having built up offenses I'll tell you one things for sure Till we make the decision We'll never take this world Unless we make a head on collision A head on collision And daddy told her she could never have Late night out with her man So she sits crying by the window Every time she gets another A She makes it another day And it’s just that simple Shake up my life Let’s go... Back to the days when we were young and all restless We still believed in having built up offenses I'll tell you one things for sure Till we make the decision We'll never take this world Unless we make a head on collision A head on collision Here they come now Will you come down? Make ‘em run now On to the next town Here they come now Let’s make ‘em run now No time to fake now Everything breaks down (Here they come now Will you come down? Make ‘em run now On to the next town Here they come now Let’s make ‘em run now No time to fake now Everything breaks down) (He was a simple boy he just liked to have fun He never wanted to be just like his dad was He was a dreamer but he had never had none Who made the most of his life but never had one) Here they come now Will you come down? Make ‘em run now On to the next town Let’s go... Back to the days when we were young and all restless We still believed in having built up offenses I'll tell you one things for sure Till we make the decision We'll never take this world Unless we make a head on collision Let’s go... Back to the days when we were young and all restless We still believed in having built up offenses I'll tell you one things for sure Till we make the decision We'll never take this world Unless we make a head on collision Don't you know ????? Well we thought ‘cause we were never listening Knew it all ????? Well all we needed was a head on collision Don't you know ????? Well we thought ‘cause we were never listening Knew it all ????? Well all we needed was a head on collision

	I think thats pretty much right. Any lyrics that might be wrong, or needs to be added, just let me know. Anyways, I think this song is about having an impact on our own lives, as well as the world. Tackling those problems we face each and every day.

	He was a simple boy, he just liked to have fun. He never wanted to be just like his dad was. He was a dreamer but he had never had none. Who made the most of his life but never had one. He was a single boy, he could never slow down, He always wanted to leave but didn't know how. He was a dreamer who seemed to never break ground, Who spent most of his live in a small town. Shake up my life, Let’s go back to the days when we were young & not restless, When we still believe & hadn’t built up defenses I’ll tell you one thing for sure till we make the decision, we’ll never take this world unless we make a head on collision And daddy told her she could never have Late night help with her math So she sits crying by the window Everyime she gets another ‘a’ She makes it another day, And it’s just hat simple Shake up my life, Let’s go back to the days when we were young & not restless, When we still believe & hadn’t built up defenses I’ll tell you one thing for sure till we make the decision, we’ll never take this world unless we make a head on collision a head on collision here they come now will you come down make em run now onto the next town here they come now lets make em run now no time to fake now everything breaks down here they come now will you come down make em run now onto the next town here they come now lets make em run now no time to fake now everything breaks down here they come now will you come down make em run now onto the next town Let’s go back to the days when we were young & not restless, When we still believe & hadn’t built up defenses I’ll tell you one thing for sure till we make the decision, we’ll never take this world unless we make a head on collision Let’s go back to the days when we were young & not restless, When we still believe & hadn’t built up defenses I’ll tell you one thing for sure till we make the decision, we’ll never take this world unless we make a head on collision don’t you know that theres more to this than what we thought cause we were never listening we’ve heard it all before but we missed it when all we needed was a head on collision don’t you know that theres more to this than what we thought cause we were never listening we’ve heard it all before but we missed it when all we needed was a head on collision

	the lines "everytime she gets another A she makes it another day and its just that simple" makes me think of myself in school... thats all there is for me... as weird as that is... this is totally my favourite song by HN

No Picture Daniel Wanna Be	#13 by Daniel Phillips at Oct 4, 2007 at 3:20 AM EST
	i don't really understand the verse about the girl either.... i really like the overall meaning of this song, i think its pretty much summarized in that one line... "we’ll never take this world unless we make a head on collision a head on collision" i like the word plays in the first verse. "He was a dreamer but he had never had none. Who made the most of his life but never had one." 1
