Bullet ProofThe Goo Goo Dolls

Songwriter: John Rzeznik

[Verse 1]
Do you listen to yourself?
Never live for someone else
Do you like the way you feel?
Nothing hurts when no one's real
She wants to shake this scene
Yeah, she wants to shake with me
She's not looking for the holes in all their lies

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to bullet proof your soul
Would you like to lose control?
I won't let you fall until you tell me so

[Chorus 1]
What are we?
(What you want to be?)
Everything
(That you want to be)
All I need
(Right in front of me)
I've know before

[Chorus 2]
Would you come my way
Or did you burn out to the end?
Would you come my way
Should have listened when you called my name

[Verse 2]
Yeah, she wants to tear you down
And she leaves without a sound
It's like falling backwards into no one's arms

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2] [x2]

[Outro]
Should have listened when you called my name [x2]

The Goo Goo Dolls

The Goo Goo Dolls are an American rock band formed in 1986 in Buffalo, NY, during one of Buffalo’s most prolific underground music phases. The band was formed by John Rzeznik (Also known as Johnny Rzeznik), lead singer and songwriter for the band, with bassist/vocalist Robby Takac, and drummer George Tutuska. Mike Malinin later replaced Tutuska as the band’s drummer.

The band has released twelve studio albums between 1986 and 2017, but they are best known for platinum-selling A Boy Named Goo (1995) and Dizzy Up the Girl (1998). These mid- to late 1990s albums contain the Goo Goo Dolls' biggest hits to date – Name and Iris most notably, but also Slide, Black Balloon, and Dizzy

These hits made the Goo Goo Dolls a household name for radio-friendly “prom night power balladry” (as one Rolling Stone review put it), but the band’s early output was often far rougher musically, melding the band’s edgier punk influences with an often soft sensibility in the mold of the band’s early heroes, The Replacements. One can hear these influences on many songs on A Boy Named Goo though these affinities would fade after Dizzy Up the Girl.
