The New York Times Lyrics

It Makes no Sense To Me
I Was Living in a different world
when i heard the news

i keep on having the same bad dream
and it makes me want to hurt all the peeople
who have done this thing to you

when i see your face
i can see you smile
i read all about you in the new york times

when i see your eyes
i can see your life
when i think about what happened
it just makes me crazy

this makes no sense to me
this eye for an eye thing
it has gone too far
i don't know anyone who doesn't hurt inside
i would like to believe we can learn from this
and maybe someday we can
make things right

i want to believe in this world
i want to believe in this life
i want to believe in a world
that does not seem real
when you read between the lines

when i see your face
i can see you smile
i read all about you in the new york times

when i see your eyes
i can see your life
when i read the words about you
it just makes me crazy

i want to believe in this world
i want to believe in this life
i want to believe in a world
that does not seem real
when you read between the lines

you got to read between the lines

you got to read between the lines

i really want to believe...
i can make things right

i want to believe i can learn
how to feel all right inside

i want to believe i can learn
how to make things right

i want to believe in this world
i want to believe in this life
i want to believe in a world
that does not seem real
when you read the new york times

i see your face
i can see your smile
i read all about you in the new york times

i can see your eyes
i can see your life
when i think about what happened
it just makes me crazy

when i close my eyes... you seem so alive
wjen i think about you
i want to believe... we can make things right

i want to believe
(i want to believe)

i want to believe in this world
i want to believe in this life
i want to believe in a world
that does not seem real
when i read the new york times

Everclear is a rock band formed in Portland, Oregon, USA, in 1992. For most of its existence, Everclear consisted of Art Alexakis (b. 12 April 1962, Los Angeles, California, USA; vocals, guitar), Craig Montoya (b. 14 September 1970; bass, vocals) and Greg Eklund (b. 18 April 1970; drums). Eklund replaced original drummer Scott Cuthbert in 1994. Montoya and Eklund departed the band in 2003, but Alexakis has continued performing as Everclear with a new lineup.

After a solo tour in the fall of 2003, Alexakis decided to continue with Everclear, organizing a new band that made its debut in March of 2004. The new lineup consisted of bass player Sam Hudson, guitarist Dave French, and drummer Eric Bretl. In the summer of 2004, the band added keyboard player Josh Crawley, and swapped Bretl for former Everclear drum tech Brett Snyder. The new lineup released its first recording, a cover of Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land, that summer. A self-released EP of performances recorded for XM Satellite Radio called Closure was given out at shows in the fall of 2004.

Free of a major label, Alexakis spent the ensuing year and half slowly recording material for a new Everclear release. He admitted that the time after the breakup of the original lineup served as a "wake up call", during which he suffered his third divorce and a filing for bankruptcy. Alexakis announced the completion of the album in early 2006,titled Welcome To The Drama Club. The new band is now on Eleven Seven Music.

In August of 2008, drummer Brett Snyder left the band after four years. He was then replaced by Tommy Stewart, who previously played in bands Fuel and Godsmack. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
