"Addicted To Me"

I woke you up before
You had the chance to dream
You almost missed the dance
But never skipped a beat

You never could admit
We've had a history
Your friends would throw a fit
So you had to smuggle me

Don't give up
I won't give up on you
I've been loyal without having something to prove
I'm not a killer
I'm just killing your doubts

Don't you know that
I'll be here forever
Even if you leave
And if you look for something better
Soon you'll see
That you're addicted to me

The guilt is all on you
But I'm easier to blame
But I can still relieve
Your ordinary pain

Don't give up
I won't give up on you
I've been loyal without having something to prove
I'm not a killer
I'm just killing your doubts

Don't you know that
I'll be here forever
Even if you leave
And if you look for something better
Soon you'll see
That you're addicted

You can love, you can lust, you can use me
All you want
You can lie, you can trust, you confuse me

I'll be here forever
Even if you leave
And if you look for something better
Soon you'll see
That you're addicted

I'll be here forever
Even if you leave
And if you look for something better
Soon you'll see
That you're addicted to me
That you're addicted to me
That you're addicted to me
That you're addicted to me


“all i need is you”

you're scared
it shows
been there
your not prepared to be
in love

'cause you've been through enough to have
something hold you back

if it's real we'll make it through
cause all i need is you

they say

your time
they're obviously blind

forget
the words, the thoughts
they put into your head
don't give up just yet

we dont need to go that far
let's hold on to where we are
if it's real we'll make it through
'cause all i need is you

we dont need the world right now
we've got time to work it out
hold on tight ill hold on too
'cause all i need is...

baby, maybe we should start somewhere
(gotta start somewhere)
and baby, let me in your heart
(let me in your heart)
before we fall apart

we dont need to go to far
let's hold on to who we are
if it's real we'll make it through
'cause all i need is you

we dont need the world right now
we've got time to work it out
hold on tight ill hold on too
'cause all i need is you

all i need is you

"Empty"

Tried to take a picture
Of love
Didn't think I'd miss her
That much
I want to fill this new frame
But its empty

Tried to write a letter
In ink
Its been getting better
I think
I got a piece of paper
But its empty
Its empty

Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty

And I've even wondered
If we
Should be getting under
These sheets
We could lie in this bed
But its empty
Its empty

Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty

Oh oh
Oh oh
Oooooh
Oh oh
Oh oh

Maybe we're trying
Trying too hard
Maybe we're torn apart
Maybe the timing
Is beating our hearts
We're empty

We're empty
We're empty


“Flipside”

It's been a long long time since everything was cool
I shoulda seen it coming but i guess i'm not the only fool
there's something growin on the outside
too much missin on the inside
should i waste my time and let you lead me on and on
and on and on?

waiting for the day when i'm complete
without you i'm
doing what i can to let you be
making sure there's nothing showing on the outside
something's dying on the inside
i'm still broken but i'm free
i'll see you on the flipside

i've got a bruised up heart
but i'm still hanging out
i should take it easy but i'm still gonna get around
there's something growing on the outside
too much missing on the inside
should i waste more time when everything is done
and done and overdone

waiting for the day when i'm complete
without you i'm
doing what i can to let you be
making sure there's
nothing showing on the outside
somethings dying on the inside
i'm still broken but i'm free
i'll see you on the flipside

i'll see you on the flipside
nothing showing on the outside
somethings dying on the inside
waiting for the day when i'm complete
doing what i can to let you be
nothing showing on the outside
somethings dying on the inside
i'm still broken but i'm free
i'll see you on the flipside

"I'm Getting Over You"

I found your picture in my wallet
Still got your sweater in my closet
I'll bring 'em by, maybe tonight

And people asking how I'm doing
But every question still has you in
I say I'm fine
And I never think about you
But you're always on my mind

I'm getting over you, whoa
I'm getting over you, most of the time
If I say it like I mean it
Then maybe I'll believe it
Like it's true
I'm getting over you

Been playing the songs you hated
I called the girl I almost dated
She's not the one
But I'm having fun
And I'm better off without you
And I think it's what I want

I'm getting over you, whoa
I'm getting over you, most of the time
If I say it like I mean it
Then maybe I'll believe it
Like it's true
I'm getting over you

Even if it takes forever
I'll get my shit together
I've been doing so much better
I'm getting over you
I'm getting over you

I'm getting over you, (I'm getting over you) whoa
I'm getting over you, most of the time
If I say it like I mean it
Then maybe I'll believe it
Like it's true

I'm getting over you, (I'm getting over you) whoa
I'm getting over you, most of the time
If I say it like I mean it
Then maybe I'll believe it
Like it's true
I'm getting over you

I'm getting over you



“ Jenny”

She calls me baby, then she won't call me.
Says she adores me and then ignores me.
Jenny, what's the problem?
She keeps her distance and sits on fences.
Puts up resistance and builds defenses.

Jenny, what's the problem?
You leave me hanging on the line.
Every time you change your mind.

First You say you won't, then you say you will.
You keep me hanging on, and we're not moving on.
We're standing still, Jenny. You got me on my knees.
Jenny, it's killing me.

She needs her own space. She's playing mind games.
Ends up at my place saying that she's changed.
Jenny, what's the problem?
I'm trying to read between the lines.
You got me going out of my mind.

First, you say you won't, then you say you will.
You keep me hanging on, and we're not moving on.
We're standing still, Jenny. You got me on my knees.
Jenny, it's killing me. It's killing me. It's killing me.
Jenny.

First, you say you won't, then you say you will.
You keep me hanging on, and we're not moving on.
We're standing still, Jenny. You got me on my knees.
Jenny.

First, you say you won't, then you say you will.
You keep me hanging on, and we're not moving on.
We're standing still, Jenny. You got me on my knees.
Jenny. It's killing me. It's killing me. Jenny.


“Just the girl”

She's cool and she's cruel
But she know what she's doin'
She pushed me in the pool
At our last school reunion

She laughs at may dreams
But I dream about her laughter
Strange as it seems
she's the one I'm after

Chorus
Cause she's bittersweet
She knocks me off of my feet
And I can't help myself
I don't want anyone else

She's a mystery
She's too much for me
But I keep comin' back for more
She's just the girl I'm lookin' for

She can't keep a secret for more than an hour
She runs on 100 proof attitude power
And the more she ignores me
The more I adore her

What can I do?
I'd do anything for her

Cause she's bittersweet
She knocks me off of my feet
And I can't help myself
I don't want anyone else

She's a mystery
She's too much for me
But I keep comin' back for more
She's just the girl I'm lookin' for

And when she sees it's me
On her caller ID
She won't pick up the phone
She'd rather be alone

But I can't give up just yet
Cause everyword she's ever said
Is still ringin' in my head
still ringin'in my head

She's cool and she's cruel
But she know what she's doin'
Knows just what to say
So my whole day is is ruined

Cause she's bittersweet
She knocks me off of my feet
And I can't help myself
I don't want anyone else

She's a mystery
She's too much for me
But I keep comin' back for more

Cause she's bittersweet
She knocks me off of my feet
And I can't help myself
I don't want anyone else

She's a mystery
She's too much for me
But I keep comin' back for more
Oh, I keep comin' back for more
She's just the girl I'm lookin' for
just the girl I'm lookin' for
just the girl I'm lookin' for
She's just the girl I'm lookin' for
just the girl I'm lookin' for
"Long Way To Go"

Was it you
That said that she could never get enough of me
But you confessed
That when we were alone you had to tell yourself to breathe
So maybe I
Should feel a little more like I've been living in a dream
Well I'm asking you should I stay

Even though I love you
(I can't help thinking about if I'd be better without you)
If we stay together
(it could get worse, then again, maybe it could get better)
Even though I love you
(I can't help thinking about if I'd be better without you)
Somethings wrong we both know
That you and I still got a long way to go

a long way to go

Why would you?
Wanna be with me instead of other guys
Oh make me feel
Like something special
God I think I've heard a million times
So would it be enough
To buy you everything and call you mine
'Cause it won't last long if I do

Even though I love you
(I can't help thinking about if I'd be better without you)
If we stay together
(it could get worse, then again, maybe it could get better)
Even though I love you
(I can't help thinking about if I'd be better without you)
Somethings wrong we both know
That you and I still got a long way to go

If I would leave tomorrow
You'd be the last to know

Even though I love you
If we stay together

Even though I love you
(I can't help thinking about if I'd be better without you)
If we stay together
(it could get worse, then again, maybe it could get better)
Even though I love you
(I can't help thinking about if I'd be better without you)
Somethings wrong we both know
That you and I still got a long..long way to go

Long way to go
Long way to go
Still got a long way to go


“Pop princess”

Close myself at your show last night
Looking at the sparkling eyes
In the middle of a fresher crowd

You keep living
like you're a movie star
But tell me who you really are
When the lights go down

Baby you're a glitter doll
On the radio
I dissolve
In the stereo
You've got me
You've got me coming back for more

Pop princess hold my hand
Pop princess I'm a fan
Pop princess I need you now
Freak me out turn me inside out

Pop princess make me smile
Pop princess drive me wild
Pop princess I need you now
So baby turn your love up loud

You were hiding in a darkened stall
Waiting on your curtain call
Getting your piece of mind

But I was looking past the glossy stare
I knew who was really there
And I'd like to spend sometime

Baby you're a glitter doll
On the radio
I dissolve
In the stereo
You've got me
You've got me coming back for more

Pop princess hold my hand
Pop princess I'm a fan
Pop princess I need you now
Freak me out turn me inside out

Pop princess make me smile
Pop princess drive me wild
Pop princess I need you now
So baby turn your love up loud

Baby girl I think you're radical
But you're a star and I'm a fanatical
Can we start
something new
just between
me and you

Pop princess hold my hand
Pop princess I'm a fan
Pop princess I need you now
Freak me out turn me inside out

Pop princess make me smile
Pop princess drive me wild
Pop princess I need you now
So baby turn your love up loud

Pop princess ohh
Pop princess ohh
So baby turn your love up loud
Pop princess ohh
Pop princess ohh
So baby turn your love up loud
Pop princess I need you now
So baby turn your love up loud


"Mary Jane"

I didn't cry the day you moved away
I didn't think that I could feel this pain
Until I saw the stranger that was you
Whatever happened to our innocence
And the somethin' that you said about being friends
Tell me how
Help me say the words out loud

Could it be
That nothings gonna change
Cause time has got a way of taking back
Everything you thought you had
Can you see
The girl you used to be
The one I lost when I let go of you
Oh whatever happened to
Mary Jane
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh

I need to wake up from this state of mind
The situation is the same kind
I gotta get your memory out of my head
Would you catch me if I had to fall
Would you even find the time for that at all
Tell me how
Help me say the words out loud

Could it be
That nothings gonna change
Time has got a way of taking back
Everything you thought you had
Can you see
The girl you used to be
The one I lost when I let go of you
Oh whatever happened to
Mary Jane
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh

Cause time has taken back
Everything I thought we had

Mary Jane..

Could it be
Nothings gonna change
Cause time has got a way of taking back
Everything you thought you had
Can you see
The girl you used to be
The one I lost when I let go of you
Oh whatever happened to
Mary Jane
Ooh ooh
Oh whatever happened to
Ooh ooh
Mary Jane


"Reason Why"

Yesterday
I waited for your friends to walk away
So I could say just what I mean

I know we're moving fast
We're running from the past
I'm holding on before it fades away

(chorus)
Could it be that maybe it's our first mistake
And baby that's alright
It's crazy how we lost ourselves tonight
There's a Reason Why they
Say that we should give it time
But time is not enough
And that's The Reason Why
When you're young you fall in love

Standing Still
I'm waiting round to see if this is real
Because I feel like I'm asleep

I opened up my eyes
'Cuz you might be the type
Of girl that makes me dream when I'm awake

(chorus)
Could it be that maybe it's our first mistake
And baby that's alright
It's crazy how we lost ourselves tonight
There's a Reason Why they
Say that we should give it time
But time is not enough
And that's The Reason Why
When you're young you fall in love

So tell me can this really work?
Or will we end up getting hurt?
Is this love...
Or myth?

So tell me are you ready for this?
There's so much more than we can see
More than you
More than me
It takes two to believe

Maybe it's our first mistake
And baby that's alright
It's crazy how we lost ourselves tonight


"When I'm Gone"

Dear love
Better sit down
Bad news
Get the word out
Accidents come with conclusions

I'm numb
On the asphalt
Don't cry
Wasn't your fault
I can't feel
It's just confusion
Keep on, keep on, keep on, when I'm gone

When the lights are out
Don't be sad for long
When I'm gone
And the lights are out
I'll be shining on
I'm just gonna let my life bleed on this letter
Let my song sing on forever
I'll still love you when I'm gone

Tear drops
Paint the faces
Despair
Is contagious
Dressed in black
Clutching a red rose
Hold on, hold on, hold on, my love goes on

When the lights are out
Don't be sad for long
When I'm gone
And the lights are out
I'll be shining on
I'm just gonna let my life bleed on this letter
Let my song sing on forever
I'll still love you when I'm gone

When the lights are out
Don't be sad for long
When I'm gone
And the lights are out
I'll be shining on
I'm just gonna let my life bleed on this letter
Let my song sing on forever
I'll still love you when I'm gone

When the lights are out
Don't be sad for long
When I'm gone
And the lights are out
I'll be shining on
I'm just gonna let my life bleed on this letter
Let me song sing on forever
I'll still love you when I'm gone

interview

Ben Romans of The Click Five on The One Love
"Love life. Love music. Love communication. Love one another. Love progress. Love companionship. Love art. Love passion. Welcome to The One Love. " - Ben Romans
image

Although some of us may not always remember, there are things in life that transcend music. However, this doesn’t mean that those things can not be supported hand in hand with music and the people that make it. The One Love personifies this idea. Started by Ben Romans of The Click Five and his business partners Cassie Petrey and Jade, The One Love is an project that reaches out to various charitable organizations based on the musicians, artists, producers, and fans that take part. Essentially, the more that people participate, the more that the charities involved benefit. It’s a win win all around, creating a community that everyone can be proud to be a part of.

One may wonder, with a successful band under his belt, how does Ben find the time to dedicate to this project, but it’s not about finding the time, it’s about making the time. That is the common theme throughout, we all have the power to help within us, what we do with it, is in our own hands. With the new year fast approaching, what better time to make that decision than now!

Ben recently took some time during this busy holiday season to talk to TWRY Staffer Stacie about The One Love and of course The Click Five!

Interviewed by: Stacie Caddick-Dowty | December 2007


Ben, we are talking to you today regarding a new community you are part founder in. It’s called “The One Love” and it’s about bringing back relationships, and helping those in need. Will you elaborate on this for us?

It’s a great opportunity for our bloggers to write about what their passions. Everyone got into this (music) for one reason or another, and I think the hardcore fans wouldn’t mind reading about it, meanwhile getting involved with charity at the same time.
Now anyone who has already checked the website out knows that this started as the result of a “late night conversation” can you tell us what sparked this marvelous idea and what transpired to make this a reality?

Cassie and Jade and I were out after a show in Nottingham, England, and they recommended that I start blogging… and at the time I was unsure of it, but we all realized that artists can have a good amount to say, a lot more than what marketing and the media can give credit for, so the idea was planted. Later on, after wanting to somehow start a charity with the band perhaps, that idea fused with the idea of a blogging site, and bam, the idea turned into a reality… thanks to the web wizard skills of Cassie and Jade.
Tell us a little bit about your partners Jade and Cassie…

We met way back when the band was starting to tour, and they helped the band in many ways trying to get the stuff out. As I said, they SPECIALIZE in new media amongst other bizzare and amazing ideas, so we tried to put our heads together to create something unique, artist friendly, and passionate.
So each time a blog is clicked on, and viewed we are donating to a charity?

You got it… this makes it easy for people to get involved just by checking out what bloggers have to say.



image
Do you have a select list of charities that a blogger chooses from? Or does the blogger add any charity he or she wishes?

We have left the choices up to the blogger, as some charities may be close to them for one reason or another.
You’ve got Chap Stique from the Family Force 5, Tyler Hilton and others. How did these and other bloggers get involved?

Friends. Friends through friends, and so forth and so on. It’s a great little community.
What does one have to do to join your blogging community? Is it open to anyone?

Contact us! We’re interested in new bloggers, and will slowly add as we move forward.
Do you plan to get more sponsors or other donations? What are your long term goals?

Perhaps yes. As this is new for all of us, we only hope that it can grow into something special. In the long term, possibilities could be fantastic, as a group of artists together could mean events, concerts, fundraisers, etc… and a whole lot of fun doing it!
On January 21st at the Bitter End in NYC, you have “The One Love” ready to rock the city. Tell us about this upcoming show and tell us what this concert adds to your mission?

We’re looking forward to this show. We will pick one of the charities from our site to donate to. What’s great about this show in a musical sense, is that we’re going to have a Nashville style songwriter’s round with artists that you wouldn’t quite expect to play in that type of setting. It is focused on the song, and focused on the different artist coming together to make a unique night of music… which is another premise of The One Love, bringing together different
musicians/genres. If you’re in NYC, come check it out!



You also have some upcoming shows with your band The Click Five with Damone in Boston at the end of January. How did you and Damone get together? Your fan bases aren’t exactly alike.... Was this on purpose to get people together?

The Click Five is very much looking forward to this show, as Biil’s Bar is the first venue that we EVER played… ANND Damone ROCKS! Mike Woods is a friend of mind, and a fantastic songwriter/producer. Though our fan bases may be different, both bands share a love for crazy hooks in songs and musicianship. I love the idea of throwing people off a little, but at the same time making folks realize that there are similar undercurrents… it wasn’t put together necessarily to get different people together, but it definitely was done on purpose to put on a hell of a show with two Boston bands!
At the recent Boston Music Awards you snagged Outstanding Pop Act, and were nominated in two other categories: Song of the Year (Jenny), and
National Male Vocalist of the Year (Kyle Patrick)…You also performed. Tell us about your experience.

More than anything, it was just great to be back in Boston, we had be gone for months, and see our friends and music community.
Speaking of Kyle, how has he helped the band grow?

It’s a simple as this. Kyle’s very passionate, very musical, and a kind person. He shares many similar interests with the band personally and musically. We’re psyched to have him on board.
What can we expect in ‘08 from The Click Five?

We plan on returning to Asia for an awesome tour. Meanwhile… we plan to figure out some sort of way to make some things happen on American soil… so stay posted.
Thank you Ben for speaking with us today and Good luck in ‘08 with the Click and with this great community!!

Thank you, and happy new year to you!

[edit] History

Four of the five original members attended the Berklee College of Music and participated in many other rock bands before coming together to form The Click, which later became The Click Five. The band lived together in Boston in a rented house on Imrie Road, which gave name to their debut album's title. The group played their first venue at the KISS 108 FM Hatchshell Concert on the Charles River in July 2004. They were signed to Lava Records that autumn. The band began recording their first album at QDivision Studios in Somerville with Mike Deneen, veteran producer for artists such as Aimee Mann, Fountains of Wayne, Letters to Cleo, and many other notable bands.

Following the completion of the recording, the band began touring, starting at smaller venues around the Boston area to larger ones across North America. The music video for the first single, "Just the Girl", an homage to A Hard Day's Night, was released in the summer and autumn of 2005 to MTV, VH1, and other outlets. Their debut album, "Greetings from Imrie House", was released 16 August 2005. After a rigorous nine month US Tour, the Click Five toured Asia in 2006, visiting Singapore, Malaysia, and Japan, and later toured the British Isles that autumn with McFly.

In early 2007, the band replaced their lead singer with Kyle Patrick, another Berklee student. The band recorded their second album, "Modern Minds and Pastimes", in the early months of 2007 and released it on 26 June 2007. The release was followed by a small United States tour. The band returned to Asia in autumn 2007 with a significantly larger itinerary.

The band are planning to tour the world again in 2008.
