BRIGHT EYES LYRICS - Mushaboom

BRIGHT EYES LYRICS



"Mushaboom"



Originally by Feist






Helping the kids out of their coats

But wait the babies haven't been born

Unpacking the bags and setting up

And planting lilacs and buttercups



But in the meantime I've got it hard

Second floor living without a yard

It may be years until the day

My dreams will match up with my pay



Old dirt road

Knee deep snow

Watching the fire as we grow old



I got a man to stick it out

And make a home from a rented house

And we'll collect the moments one by one

I guess that's how the future's done



How many acres how much light

Tucked in the woods and out of sight

Talk to the neighbours and tip my cap

On a little road barely on the map



Old dirt road

Knee deep snow

Watching the fire as we grow old

Old dirt road

Rambling rose

Watching the fire as we grow well I'm sold

STREET DOGS LYRICS - Jakes

STREET DOGS LYRICS



"Jakes"






It started back in '94 with the passing of a Boston Jake

And all it took to grab my heart was the sound that the bagpipes made

So on with my life I go with experiences gained through work

But the dream to get on the job in my heart and mind always keeping me focussed



It was a tribute to a fallen brother and from across the nation

Peers showed up to show their appreciation



Boston Jakes are on duty and they're ready

At a blaze or incident, so focussed and real steady



In double zero the job came in, the dream was realized

I felt a sense of purpose, pride and complete fullfillment

But with the job comes real life danger, sacrifices that's the code spoke

The territory that goes with my decision to take the job



Boston Jakes are on duty and they're ready

At a blaze or incident, so focussed and real steady

Boston Jakes committed to the people they serve

Never hesitating to jump to action or lend a hand

THE ATARIS LYRICS - The Saddest Song

THE ATARIS LYRICS



"The Saddest Song"






Only two more days, until your birthday

Yesterday was mine

You'll be turning five

I know what it's like, growing up without your father in your life

So I pretend, I'm doing all I can

And I hope someday you'll find it in your heart



To understand

Why I'm not around

And forgive me for not being in your life



I remember waiting

For you to come

Remember waiting

For you to call

Remember waiting there to find nothing at all

I remember waiting

For you to come

Remember waiting

For you to call

Waiting there to find nothing at all



Maybe someday

you'll really get to know me

not just the letters read to you

I pray I get the chance

To make it up to you

We got a lot of catching up to do



So I pretend, I'm doing all I can

And hope someday you'll find it in your heart



To understand

Why I'm not around

And forgive me for not being in your life



I remember waiting

For you to come

Remember waiting

For you to call

Remember waiting there to find nothing at all

I remember waiting

For you to come

Remember waiting

For you to call

Waiting there to find nothing at all



Forgive me!

I'm so sorry!

I will make it up to you....

GREEN DAY LYRICS - Scumbag

GREEN DAY LYRICS



"Scumbag"






You come around every now and then

Your clothes are different,

but you're still the same

Why else would you come here?

Scumbag on a mission



You're telling me that it's been a while

Shit-eating grin and a brand new life

Somebody let you come here

Scumbag with permission



Never thought I'd see the likes of you around this place

What's the special occasion?

Did you run outta friends?



Here you are comin' 'round again

And things are different but you still pretend

You gotta reason to come here

Scumbag with ambition



And now you're telling me that things have changed

And you'll leaving in a couple days

You're gonna change the world someday

Scumbag with a vision



It must be nice to know you got it all figured out

But from where I'm sitting,

It's the same thing again and again



Have you ever stopped to think

before you opened up your mouth?

Because everytime you do,

It's the same thing again and again

THE BIGGER LIGHTS LYRICS - Apocalypse!

THE BIGGER LIGHTS LYRICS



"Apocalypse!"






Take my hand and don't let me go

An till the sun is swallowed

And darkness comes to sing us all to sleep



Face to face without waking graves

Is this the best we've got

Is this the most we could

Have made of our homes disarray



Pick up the bottles

And nip up the air waves

We're going down

We're going down in flames



If this is it

We're dead set and ready for it

With refusing hands and bomb shelters

We're better brave then bashful and sing it



We are the beat that soldiered on

The acky eyes that made it to dawn

To kiss and wait to yesterday



Pick up the bottles

And nip up the air waves

We're going down

We're going down in flames



If this is it

We're dead set and ready for it

With refusing hands and bomb shelters

We're better brave then bashful and sing it

BRIGHT EYES LYRICS - Lime Tree

BRIGHT EYES LYRICS



"Lime Tree"






I keep floating down the river but the ocean never comes

Since the operation I heard you're breathing just for one

Now everything is imaginary, especially what you love

You left another message said it's done,

It's done



When I hear beautiful music it's always from another time

Old friends I never visit, I remember what they're like

Standing on a doorstep full of nervous butterflies

Waiting to be asked to come inside

Just come inside



But I keep going out

I can't sleep next to a stranger when I'm coming down

It's 8 a. m. my heart is beating too loud

Too loud

Don't be so amazing or I'll miss you too much

I felt something that I had never touched



Everything gets smaller now the further that I go

Towards the mouth and the reunion of the Known and the Unknown

Consider yourself lucky if you think of it as home

You can move mountains with your misery if you don't

If you don't



It comes to me in fragments, even those still split in two

Under the leaves of that old Lime Tree I stood examining the fruit

Some were ripe and some were rotten, I felt nauseous with the truth

There will never be a time more opportune



So I just won't be late

The window closes, shock rolls over in a tidal wave

And all the color drains out of the frame

So pleased with a daydream that now living is no good

I took off my shoes and walked into the woods

I felt lost and found with every step I took

JESUS WEPT LYRICS - Against The Grain

JESUS WEPT LYRICS



"Against The Grain"






Well I'm standing on my last leg

Dejected world heed what I say

Caught up in lies and material gain

In given time the pleasure turns to pain

Won't crawl on all fours for you

I admit I've made some mistakes

Won't believe your truth is a lie

Determination: a creed to live by

Against the grain I try

Again I believe the lies

I won't cave to condescending ways

The sands of time is more than I can take

The war I wage within myself

I must find a way

To take control

Vow to never fall again

But I'm holding, holding on to pain

Although I know its all mundane

The creeper I must sow, protecting

Won't crawl on all fours for you

I admit I've made some mistakes

Won't believe your truth is a lie

Determination: a creed to live by

Against the grain I try

Again I believe the lies

Can't stand it for another day

I know its an illusion

Against the grain

DOGWOOD LYRICS - Sanctuary

DOGWOOD LYRICS



"Sanctuary"






Listen to all the people cheer

with empty tears in their eyes

a nation cries

for the sake of themselves

Opportunism deals with pain



yet we still try to change our wicked ways

that we just can't seem to break

it's all on me

nothing to offer from here.



and I never thought I'd see the day arrive,

heroes who revise,

won't be recognized.

this world was given one last chance,

to make this right in time.



the next time that we fall, into ourselves

we should be sure that we won't deviate

Self sufficiency: the solution to sanctuary.



and I never thought I'd see the day arrive,

heroes who revise,

won't be recognized.

this world was given one last chance,

to make this right in time.



Structure, this is my own dysfunction.

Are you listening?



Now that you know, you can't deny,

Because the truth is I never thought I'd see the day arrive,

heroes who revise,

won't be recognized.

this world was given one last chance,

to make this right in time.

GOLDFINGER LYRICS - The Upper Hand

GOLDFINGER LYRICS



"The Upper Hand"






Since you've been fifteen you were confused,

at that age it's so hard to just be you

you've got your friends, your records,

the only thing that makes you feel whole

you're trying to figure it all out

sometimes you realize the fight is oh-so futile

someone else is telling you you're wrong



[chorus]

you know you're right

but no one seems to listen,

they say you're just a child,

so you turn and fight,

for me that is the only way

to step to what they say is the upper hand,

don't let them take the upper hand

don't let them take the upper hand



You wanna go out and forget the day

go out and just make your life seem real

forget your mom and dad

forget about your job, your home, your school

you take so much shit,

your girl said it's over

you think about giving up

but don't you dare give up without a fight



you know you're right

but no one seems to listen,

they say you're just a child,

so you turn and fight,

for me that is the only way

to step to what they say is the upper hand,

don't let them take the upper hand

never let them take the upper hand

the upper hand

STAY LYRICS - The Great American Hustle

STAY LYRICS



"The Great American Hustle"






I miss all of the world

that I knew as a boy scrape my knees on the streets where we cool never coy.

Played along to the ballad that summer wrote. You took our bikes to a place

where our folks never knew.



Felt the wind in my face.

Man, I felt so alive,

racing you through the woods.

Man, we tried.

All of the nights that we laughed 'til we cried,

I won’t forget, forget part of my life.



To begin, to begin love.

I’ve been losing sleep again.

'Til I’m seeing you, I miss everything.

Just go back to the way that it’s been, that it's been.



Wind in my face.

Man, I felt so alive,

racing you through the woods.

Man, we tried.

All of the nights that we laughed 'til we cried,

I won’t forget, forget part of my life.



Take me home, take me home.

I am lost in a world I feel I don’t belong. [x2]



Wind in my face.

Man, I felt so alive,

racing you through the woods.

Man, we tried.

All of the nights that we laughed 'til we cried,

I won’t forget, forget part of my life.

AUTOMATIC LOVELETTER LYRICS - My Goodbye

AUTOMATIC LOVELETTER LYRICS



"My Goodbye"






You’ve got me where you want me

Falling on the ground

I hold you in the highest place,

So I’m getting out



‘Cause you’ve got me so strung out

When you leave and come around

Yeah

How am I supposed to breath

The more I live its killing me

And now I’ll be glad to see

Every time you leave



This is the last time

This is the last fight

Sunsets to sunrise

This is my goodbye

From morning till midnight

With or without you

This is my goodbye.



You were trouble since the day we met

I can see that now

I take back everything I said

Everything ‘till now



‘Cause you’ve got me so strung out

When you leave and come around

Yeah

How am I supposed to breath

The more I live is killing me

And now I’ll be glad to see

Every time you leave



This is the last time

This is the last fight

Sunset to sunrise

This is my goodbye

From morning ‘till midnight

With or without you

This is my goodbye.



I’m writing you out,

I’m crossing my T’s

And I want back the necklace that you said you did keep

You miscomprehend

I’ve sworn you to dead

And my words are as strong as my last gasp for breath.



This is the last time

This is the last fight

Sunset to sunrise

This is my goodbye

From morning ‘till midnight

With or without you

This is my goodbye.



Goodbye [repeated until end]

PROPAGANDHI LYRICS - Anchorless

PROPAGANDHI LYRICS



"Anchorless"






They called here to tell me that you're finally dying,

through a veil of childish cries.

Southern Manitoba prarire's pulling at the pant-leg of your bad disguise.

So why were you so anchorless?

A boat abandoned in some backyard.

Anchorless in the small town that you lived and died in.

I've got an armchair from your family home.

Got your P. G. Wodehouse novels and your telephone.

I've got your plates and stainless steel.

Got that way of never saying what you really feel.

I don't want to live and die here where we're anchorless.

I FARM LYRICS - Tough But Fair

I FARM LYRICS



"Tough But Fair"






"The time has come," the Wiener said,

"To talk of many things.

Of popes and dope and kings.

And why the sea is boiling hot,

And whether cops have wings."

Remember five long years ago?

Those were good times that may never come again

Now everything is justified

Is that tough but fair?

The time has come to look me in the eye

And tell me all the things

That I have told you

You can claim to have invented them

It might even be true

I guess we failed, at least we tried

Things could be worse, we might have died

I guess we failed

SAVES THE DAY LYRICS - An Afternoon Laughing

SAVES THE DAY LYRICS



"An Afternoon Laughing"






You aren't the kind of person that I couldn't fall in love with, rather you are the kind of person that I could. And I'd like to spend an afternoon of laughing at ourselves, and hear all the wonderful things you might tell me. I'd watch your eyes gleam during that time of day when you can't really tell if it's day or night. I'd like to think of us in twelve years having a place and a daughter. I think she would look a lot like you. We'd be all the time smiling. Someone once asked me who I'd most like to be with. I said, "There's this really great gal that I'd like to hang out with sometime."

FENIX TX LYRICS - Pasture Of Muppets

FENIX TX LYRICS



"Pasture Of Muppets"






It won't be long

Until you learn about this one

Is there any reason you can't say?

I must be wrong

Thought I was the perfect son

And all I want it room to breathe

Say what you want, But I'm running again

Do what you want, But I'm running again

Say what you want, But I'm running again

You can do what you want, But you'll never breathe like me,

Bleed like me, Walk the talk or think like me

Breathe like me, Bleed like me,

You'll never be like me

Can't hold me down

Scream and I won't hear a sound

There's a lot about me you don't know

Throw in the towel

Give it up, you've lost this round

I think it's time for me to go



[Chorus]

BEAR VS. SHARK LYRICS - The Employee Is Not Afraid

BEAR VS. SHARK LYRICS



"The Employee Is Not Afraid"






Came to me on icebergs and bonded cell ties

and write up these letters to question your reasons

for coming and leaving to carry the summer

in allies and basements you washed yourself clean



My sockets are swimming, my sockets are empty

My sockets are swimming, my sockets are empty



They claim that wire had covered your heart

and they claim that water had entered your lungs

they called you a martyr, and they cut off your ties to the city

they called you a traitor, and they cut off your ties to the south



Came to me in paintings that highlight the sun

it branded the concept of living and lying

to forgive the layout and rewrite the history

a four sided story, a moundbuilders dream



My sockets are swimming, my sockets are empty

My sockets are swimming, my sockets are empty



They claim that wire had covered your heart

and they claim that water had entered your lungs

they called you a traitor, called you a traitor, called you a traitor

called you a martyr, and they cut off your ties to the city

said they cut em off, cut em off

THE MUFFS LYRICS - The Whole World

"The Whole World"






You never know what you wanna do, feeling sad and feeling blue

And they all say you're happy too

when I come around there's nothing to do



You went away I don't care you spend the day in your underwear



Mr crazy what are you doing when they're talking to you

Mr crazy what do you do when the whole world is looking at you

Ooh the whole world is looking at you



A lovely poinsettia in your place better than your funny face

I see you're down this time I know maybe you will never ever go



You went away I don't care you spend the day in your underwear



Mr crazy what are you doing when they're talking to you

Mr crazy what do you do when the whole world is looking at you

Ooh the whole world is looking at you



You did what you wanted to slower than slow

You are a lovely creature but they don't care it doesn't matter at all



[solo]



You went away I don't care you spend the day in your underwear



Mr crazy what are you doing when they're talking to you

Mr crazy what do you do when the whole world is looking at you

Ooh the whole world is looking at you

Ooh the whole world is looking at you

Ooh the whole world is looking at you

CANCER BATS LYRICS - Ghost Bust That

CANCER BATS LYRICS



"Ghost Bust That"






These ghosts we have, alive and well

These ghosts have passed, right through your hands

You'll never know, what's really here

You'll never know what's come before

We'll make these graves, unearth these tombs

These ghosts will haunt again

We'll make these graves, unearth these tombs

These ghosts will haunt again

History locked away

Memory locked away



You'll never know what brought us here

These ghosts we asked to lead the way

We'll make these graves, unearth tombs

These ghosts will haunt again

We'll make these graves, unearth tombs

These ghosts will haunt again



All this will be

All this will be forgotten, just give it time

All this will be forgotten

All of us dead and buried

Our breathless phantoms songs

All of us dead and buried, as your attention falls

Left only whispers carried, our breathless phantoms songs

These lambs will slaughter us

These lambs will make us living ghosts

SUBB LYRICS



"Blind Leading The Blind"






The blind leading the blind

They're all standing in line

They're voting for the one who lied

And committed senseless crimes



I cannot believe your lies

You went on for far too long

We could have save some lives

You're singing the same old song



The blind leading the blind

Same story every time

Corruption is leading the way

And there's a price to pay



I cannot believe your lies

You went on for far too long

We could have save some lives

You're singing the same old song



I cannot believe your lies

You went on for far too long

We could have save some lives

You're singing the same old song

VOODOO GLOW SKULLS LYRICS - I Shot The Sheriff

VOODOO GLOW SKULLS LYRICS



"I Shot The Sheriff"



Originally by Bob Marley






I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot the deputy.

I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot the deputy.



All around in my hometown,

They're tryin' to track me down.

They say they want to bring me in guilty,

For the killing of a deputy,

For the killing of a deputy.



But I say...



I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot the deputy.

I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot the deputy.



Sheriff John Brown always hated me,

For what I don't know.

Every time that I planted a seed,

He said, "Kill it before it grow."

He said, "Kill them before it grow."



But I say...



I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self defence.

I shot the sheriff, and they say it was a capital offence.



Reflexes got the better of me,

And what is to be must be.

Every day the bucket goes to the well,

But one day the bottom will drop out

Yeah, one day the bottom will drop out



But I say...

but me, I just like scaring you

you wonder what goes on, in my head

don't try to find out, or you'll be dead

LIFETIME LYRICS - Somewhere In The Swamps Of Jersey

LIFETIME LYRICS



"Somewhere In The Swamps Of Jersey"






I keep on laughing and you're keeping track and tonight I'll go back to the place I first knew that I'd wait for you always on streets and in doorways where engines they die near the northeastern line and you mentioned a record that reminded me of a week that you couldn't get things out of your head I'm truly sorry I missed that night it could have been the best time but it's just timing she showed up unexpected and I the train into town I put my collar down and pushed through the door but if it's smiles you want talk to the kid with the boy eyes and wake up dreaming next to him

INKED IN BLOOD LYRICS - Somewhere Familiar

INKED IN BLOOD LYRICS



"Somewhere Familiar"






The wind has changed-I feel warmth from somewhere familiar. And it's all flooding back to me. This is what I've longed for-this is what we've longed for. Something so small, like a look in the eyes, reminded me of what it meant to follow my heart; and now I'm never looking back. Laying our burdens down-there's so much we need to let go of. This reflection is ringing true and it looks like I'm almost there. What matters most is who we are to the ones that we love. I am so glad to have your hand in mine. A lack of you would mean less of what I hope to be. If only you knew of the refuge you have given me. This has only made us stronger-this has only made us strong. Laying our burdens down-there's so much we need to let go of. This reflection is ringing true and it looks like I'm almost there. What matters most is who we are to the ones that we love. Everywhere I go I feel you're here with me. I'll be with you tonight, just like I said I'd be.

BAYSIDE LYRICS - How To Fix Everything

BAYSIDE LYRICS



"How To Fix Everything"






The sharper the edge, the cleaner the wound

So I'll be keeping it dull tonight

For I deserve to hurt

Disfigure the outside

To show how ruined I am

There's no pain and no pleasure when you're

Too numb to feel



There's a pedestal across the room

And if I try to climb again

This time the fall is fatal

Now, I don't deserve such an easy exit

So maybe my

Spine can snap on impact and I'll

have to crawl away.



I'm ready to take that big step

Start tearing off the layers I put up

Or is it too late to be

Anything but what I am

Identify the problem

Now let's see

If we can fix anything.



Just close the door and let me do what I need

Cause it's better for us

If you just let me leave.



I'm ready to take that big step

Start tearing off the layers I put up

Or is it too late to be

Anything but what I am

Identify the problem

Now let's see

If we can fix anything



How to fix everything

MISERY SIGNALS LYRICS - One Day I'll Stay Home

MISERY SIGNALS LYRICS



"One Day I'll Stay Home"






I surrender whole to one

Night by night, day by day

The blur of cities twisting us to severance

Your static voice over a thousand satellite hours

In Chrysalis my darling

Until our time

I'll flood my eyes in light

The road underfoot is certain to become the road behind

One day I'll stay home



Confide in me, this is my promise

This is and has to be

Never fraction or ephemeral

The gift of self, given completely

The way I will be given to you



From everything I've chosen to stray

But never with contempt

For every mile a moment missed

My absence not in vain

This choice is passion, this path is tension

I feel the pressure clenching me

This is now and not forever

Until our time

My ears will ring

The road underfoot is certain to become the road behind

One day I'll stay home

Night by night, day by day



Confide in me, this is my promise

This is and has to be

Never fraction or ephemeral

The gift of self, given completely

The way I will be given to you

Until our time my ears will ring

Until our time I'll flood my eyes

IGGY POP LYRICS - Dead Rock Star

IGGY POP LYRICS



"Dead Rock Star"



Featuring The Stooges






They think that I've got the bread

They want to read my head

The position show his cool

Like football star in school



Someone to sell me

Someone to tell me

I'm a dead rock star

in a dead rock car

I'm a dead rock star



I'm so afraid of failing

I hang onto the railing

This cold hard graduation

Kills all infatuation

I took the hazing

They said "amazing"

I'm a dead rock star

in a dead rock car

I'm a dead rock star



I gathered awful knowledge

You cannot get in college

Would you like Cain or Abel

I'll bring them to the table



They try to rope me

They try to grope me

I'm a dead rock star

in a dead rock car

I'm a dead rock star

What can I hope for?

What can I hope for?

Nothing to live for

Nothing to live for

I'm a dead rock star

in a dead rock car

I'm a dead rock star

NO RELAX LYRICS - Al Matadero

NO RELAX LYRICS



"Al Matadero"






ríos de sangre, muertos en vida van

avanzando por la autovía cuerpos deshechos

por la agonía son alimento, cierra los ojos

y a comer



horas y horas de sufrimiento penetra el

frío hasta los huesos triste mirada de

desconsuelo es un producto que ofrece rentabilidad



¿cómo puedes aprobar este macabro

ritual? piensa un poco ¿qué hay

detrás? ¿quién es hoy el

animal?



llegan exhaustos a su destino van desfilando bajo

el cuchillo son estridentes sus alaridos olor a

sangre, listos para descuartizar



ya no hay salida, pobrecitos la mejor carne para

los niños sí hay salida, pobrecitos

no seas cómplice de asesinos

FUGAZI LYRICS - Long Distance Runner

FUGAZI LYRICS



"Long Distance Runner"






The farther I go the less I know

One foot goes in front of the other

It all boils around to not hanging around

To keep moving in front of the gravity

The answer is there the answer is there

but there is not a fixed position

It keeps moving along so I keep coming along

and that's why I'm a long distance runner

and if I stop to catch my breath

I might catch a piece of death

I can't keep your pace if I want to finish this race

My fight's not with it

It's with the gravity

Long distance runner

THE SIDEKICKS LYRICS - The Island

THE SIDEKICKS LYRICS



"The Island"






When this horrid sea started boring me

thats when I knew these days would get longer.

When my own inventions became common place

I realized I had become a bit ordinary.

When out of breaking clouds, came a brighter sky

I realized I should probably look up more often

When my instincts order me, I always give in.

Cause no matter how much I dress myself up, I'm still an animal.



And I inch myself towards let go

I inch myself like a wrecking ball into shadows.



When missing you became normal state

Thats when I knew these days would get much longer.

When you come to stay and then you go away

I usually only remember the goodbye.

But I've got years to waste and I'm plenty wasteful.

I've got a bomb for every structure that I've crafted.

And I'm thankful, I'm plenty cynical

With a giant question mark placed after my every statement.



So on this island

I hold close to me

a few things that I won't let go.

Clutching them so they won't wash away.

SCISSORS FOR LEFTY LYRICS - Lay Down Your Weapons

SCISSORS FOR LEFTY LYRICS



"Lay Down Your Weapons"






The sound of numbers

Last Time, 5-4-3-6-2-1-8-9

It's over, I've served, my time

Certainly am ready to walk the straight line



Ive been a locked up a long time baby,

since I was nine

Paid the piper for naughty naughties

Now I'm ready to kick start my life



Combing the sand

Lay down, lay down, oh women

They'll be scoping me with my six pack frame

Fly me a first class, I be off to Hawaii,

Lay down, lay down, the island

Welcoming me, with a coconut honey



Sure a lotta people here at the airport

Lotta people be waiting in line

I think I'll light me up a Cuban cigar

One for now, then one for the ride



Ive been a locked up a long time baby,

since I was nine

I just got out yesterday man,

bought myself this New York steak knife



Here comes the badge

Lay down, lay down your weapons,

Or well bag you here at the baggage claim

Hey, you've got the wrong man,

please stop dealing in absolutes

Lay down, lay down your weapons

I saw handcuffs then it clicked in me



They're never ever gonna gonna catch me

I never once did anything wrong

Instead of pleasantly asking a question

You threaten me, and say I am wrong



Make your demands

Lay down, lay down your weapons,

Or this loved one here gets it in the head

I was a baby born into hard times

You ain't taking me, you ain't taking me,

You ain't taking me, you ain't taking me

PENNYWISE LYRICS - Every Single Day

PENNYWISE LYRICS



"Every Single Day"






See all the people longing to be

Living their lives regretlessly

Trying to repress the pain in their lives

Reassuring themselves living with lies



No way to break through not on my own

Can't push away all the sorrow I've known

Have to release every thought or care

And take control life is a dare



[Chorus:]

I can start over today

Live my life a different way

Can't find a way to erase bad times to make

Everything OK

I'll start over and live every single day



Regrets and memories no remorse no apologies

No reason for me to despair no future at all

Ask if I care

I got time on my side twenty four hours in my life

Can't hang on to what's in my past

Full speed ahead hard and fast



[Chorus]



At the end with each dropping sun

Can't erase what has been done who cares

What happened long ago I don't want to know



[Chorus]



Can't face tomorrow with these thoughts

Of yesterday

I can't escape the lies and make them go away

Wish I had the answers to make it through

Can't shake these images no matter what I do

I guess I'll use them to make me a stronger man

I'll use each

Twisted tortured memory to help me understand

And I will learn

From mistakes

To find a way

I guess I'll have to live with them every single day

THE LIVING END LYRICS - Staring At The Light

THE LIVING END LYRICS



"Staring At The Light"






Times up heading for a brighter light

The foreign waters put the fire out

No one ever asked you

Wasn't meant to end this way

To end this way



You're not alone now

You're closing in now



Staring at the light so easily denied

Staring at the light released before your time

Staring at the light look on the other side

You never knew why it wasn't up to you



Some may relish in the afterlife

Dancing slowly on the edge of a knife

Sipping wine of the poisonous kind

Overdose on loneliness



Have no fear now we're on the case

Beyond there lies a better place

Where knowledge ends and faith begins

A hell to stand by and a heaven within



Not alone now

You're closing in now



[Chorus]



You're not alone now

You're closing in now



[Chorus]



You never knew why it wasn't up to you, to you

Times are heading for a brighter light

BEAT CRUSADERS LYRICS



"Supercollider"






I don't know reasons why you cry

I don't know reasons why you hide



Forget the nightmare

Forget the nightmare

Baby, your call's close to my heart

Dreaming the night away



We don't need to escape

We all need the sunshine to believe



Don't go falling down

Nothing fears you anymore

Don't go going down

Nothing's gonna fear you anymore again

JOEY CAPE LYRICS - Mission Unaccomplished

JOEY CAPE LYRICS



"Mission Unaccomplished"






Rainy day, I'm counting sheep in May

Woke up dreaming of the sun and the work you could have done

Mid-life lent, I've come here to repent

I'm a time-lapse document, meaningful as when we met

Through the laugh-track I'm still wailing for you

Mission Accomplished

hey man, hey man, I'm alive

This is the only place you still arrive on time

Tumble down white hills in blue background

Even in this dream sequence you won't explain, nor confess

Mission Unaccomplished [repeat]

DEVOTCHKAS LYRICS - Transparent Creed

DEVOTCHKAS LYRICS



"Transparent Creed"






you preach with such conviction

but your life mirrors contradiction

daddy foots the bills

as you live a life of priveleged frills

buying hair dye with mommy's visa card

yet you bitch that life is so hard

with a punker-than-thou attitude

you hide behind a facade to elude



[Chorus:]

You're a simple book to read

with your transparent creed

Your facade recedes

to your front-we do heed.



sent to an ivy league school

only to come out a corporate fool

one day sporting daddy's benz

next day your politi-punk stance condescends

your opinions are ineffectual

you're a phoney pseudo-intellectual

out to prove yourself with verbal affrays

but your prescence here is just a phase



[Chorus]



you make attempts to theorize

with motives contrived to criticize

you'll find ways to falsly justify your guise

to explain to yourself your lies

you'll be gone in two years-an accurate prediction

and elsewhere you'll live out a life of fiction

family money affords your fleeting radical views

but nothing can buy you true virtues



[Chorus]

[Repeat 1st Verse]

[Chorus x2]

THE NEW AMSTERDAMS LYRICS - Your Ghost

THE NEW AMSTERDAMS LYRICS



"Your Ghost"






Your ghost is haunting the alleyways

Pacing the tracks where you tread

Seeking the solace of sleep

Maybe you don't know you're dead



Witness the worst of your history only to chase it again

Discreet but curiously

Repeating the act in the end



Lonely and grieving

Will your god take me too

This won't be the memory I will carry of you



I watch the sea, you lied to me

I will wait but the day never comes



Tempt me to change things because I've got the will and the blade

but my sins have cursed me

So I wander the rest of my days



Lonely and grieving

Will your god take me too

This won't be the memory I will carry of you

I believed it killed me

It's too late for the truth



I watch the sea, you lied to me

I will wait but the day never comes



Your ghost is haunting the alleyways

Maybe you don't know you're dead

WAITING FOR AUTUMN LYRICS - Leaving Me Tonight

WAITING FOR AUTUMN LYRICS



"Leaving Me Tonight"






You left me down, with not a chance to fall

My heart was on the line and I can't explain

To everyone that I, that I fell so in love with you

You left me waiting on the line



Waiting for you

That day was so difficult to cry myself to sleep

I knew that you would wait for me, but I was wrong

But I was wrong



Why, leaving me tonight

I pray it's only a while 'til she'll be back again

No, it's only in my head, it's everything you said

Tonight alone again, why



You came, the days grew dim for me

I knew we would be, but I thought we would see it out

For what we had was stronger than the things they knew

We knew



Why, leaving me tonight

I pray it's only a while 'til she'll be back again

No, it's only in my head, it's everything you said

Tonight alone again



Righteous, righteous

Leaving me tonight

Righteous, righteous

Don't leave me

No, don't go tonight



You'll see me walking away, I see you wanting to say

I pray that you would see me for me, don't walk away



And I will know that you are so true

To all that I am, finding you



And I want to get right, 'cause I don't walk around

And I want to see tonight, and I know your sound

It's like I've got to know, and I don't walk around

If I could only get right, this time I know I could



Why, leaving me tonight

I know it's only a while 'til she'll be back again

No, it's only in my head, it's everything you said

Tonight alone again, why



Righteous, righteous

Leaving me tonight

Righteous, righteous

Don't leave me tonight



Right, right, right

Righteous now, we pray

CRIME IN STEREO LYRICS - Small Skeletal

CRIME IN STEREO LYRICS



"Small Skeletal"






As they laid

my bones down at the crossroads, I saw my ghost

sell my soul to the inferno for petrol to get home.

Now each day

I sink a bit faster into my father's fate.

Four packs a day. Four decades straight.

Right to an unmarked grave.



I used to think it would sleep [x3]



As I laid

My cross down at the bones beneath my feet

She came. The face of a saint. The voice of a symphony.

She says "The future will be devoid of weaknesses."

Free cigarettes for all the kids to make small skeletons.



I used to think it would sleep [x3]



I used to think as I aged with time that it would shut it's eyes and just let me be.

Then I'd seen it's designs to kill and hide deceitfully inside my skin.



I've been hunting it ever since.

C. I.A. LYRICS - Seelenkiller

C. I.A. LYRICS



"Seelenkiller"






Sie sind in unseren Köpfen, sind in unseren Herzen

Sind in unserem Körpern, sie haben uns geschafft

Sie sind unbesiegbar, sind in uns drin

Fressen die Liebe, zerstören unsern Sinn



Wir haben uns geliebt, doch sie haben uns besiegt



Das ist nicht die Welt in der wir unsere Feinde schonen

Das ist die Welt in der die Seelenkiller wohnen



Ich hab sie im Herzen hab sie im Blut

Gut ist schlecht, schlecht ist gut

Ich sehe sie tanzen im Spiegelbild

Ihr Mörderdurst ist längst nicht gestillt



Wir haben uns geliebt, doch sie haben uns besiegt



Das ist nicht die Welt in der wir unsere Feinde schonen

Das ist die Welt in der die Seelenkiller wohnen



Seelenkiller Seelenkiller Seelenkiller

Du kannst sie in meinen Augen sehn

Seelenkiller Seelenkiller Seelenkiller

Du kannst sie in meinen Augen sehn



Wo Liebe war ist jetzt kalter Stein

Was du nicht verstehst muss eben so sein

Hab von dir geträumt, bin aufgewacht

Hätt's wissen müssen:

Die haben dich längst umgebracht



Sie kamen wie gerufen, kamen wie der Wind

Versprachen das Licht machten uns blind

In kalten schwarzen Herzen fühlen wir sie glühn

Im Frühling der Einsamkeit werden sie erblühn



Seelenkiller Seelenkiller Seelenkiller

Du kannst sie in meinen Augen sehn

Seelenkiller Seelenkiller Seelenkiller

Du kannst sie in meinen Augen sehn



Seelenkiller Seelenkiller Seelenkiller

Du kannst sie in meinen Augen sehn

Du kannst sie in meinen Augen sehn

RELIENT K LYRICS - College Kids

RELIENT K LYRICS



"College Kids"






Someone please save us, us college kids

What my parents told me is what I did

They said go to school and be a college kid

But in the end I questioned why I did



I'm poor, I'm starving, I'm flat broke, I've got no cash to spend

Sell all my books for front row tickets to Dave Matthews band

My girlfriends at another school I know this year will test her

I called, found out she had 3 other boyfriends last semester



[Chorus]

And that's why I say

Oh no, not for me, not for me

Call it torture, call it university

No, arts and crafts is all I need

I'll take calligraphy and then I'll make a fake degree



80 grand later I found out that all I had learned

Is that you should show up to take your finals and your midterms

The party scene is kinda mean, I think it's sick and twisted

The navy showed up at my dorm and claimed that I enlisted



[Chorus]



Don't get excited, she'll say "no" without a doubt you see

And I've decided college girls just won't go out with me

They make me nervous and they always catch me off my guard

Like cell phone service I drop out cause college is too hard



It's time to call my father

Cause it's his alma mater

Good grades aren't what they seem

I think he knows the dean

It's time to call my father

Cause it's his alma mater

He said hes proud of me

But college always was his dream

And I would always say it's not for me



[Chorus]



Phi, beta, delta, kappa

Do what will make you happy

Do what you feel is right

Only but one thing matters

Learn how to live your life

NUMBER ONE GUN LYRICS - Wake Me Up

NUMBER ONE GUN LYRICS



"Wake Me Up"






You've got a beautiful temper,

But it gets the best of you, best of you.

When you know your mouth is on the edge of a secret,

And you make adjustments for cover.

But you want to see it through, see it through.

And now you're standing all alone and it's your fault.



And your heart is beating faster

And this isn't what you want



Wake me up.

You know I can't stand this.

I guess I'll find a way

To try to forget it.

Get over this before you breathe.



You say thanks for the notion.

And even know that this is true, this is true

It's funny how I always hear you say that you're okay.

I guess you're keeping it level.

I haven't heard from you, heard from you.

You're probably living in the past,

But it won't last.

It won't last.



Wake me up.

You know I can't stand this.

I guess I'll find a way

To try to forget it.

Get over this

Before you

Up and run away

This is pathetic.

You stand up straight,

I know you can't help it



Get over this,

Control yourself.

You're lost and

Been walking forever.



Something is wrong (something is wrong)

What is this voice inside my head?

How can it be?

When all of these things are falling in line?



Wake me up.

Wake me up.

This is inside your mind.



Wake me up.

You know I can't stand this.

Wake me up.

Just try to forget it.

Get over this,

Control yourself

You're lost and

Been walking forever.



Just be

you...

BODYJAR LYRICS



"Good Enough"






You tell yourself that you're not good enough

You don't deserve it.

And you got plans to keep it underground

I understand it well

Its all, I'm ten foot tall I watch them all revolve around me

Its like I said we make things happen fast but never make them last.



It's always the same

And there's no one to blame

Keep it bold if you want em to be there.



I wanted to say

Here and gone in a day

Now its old now its over repeated.



He tells the world that he's not good enough

He knows he should be

I know it takes some time to underline, its makin sense now

When all along it's just a dream and all I hear means nothin to me.

Don't sell it short you'll make it harder for you

Keep makin things seem right.

DROPKICK MURPHYS LYRICS



"Famous For Nothing"






The barrel fire's fading

My pals are disappearing

Another night is passing but I won't go

It's 2AM at townie

and things are going my way

Three buds, a glove and a foot of snow

There's two little shits

Selling joints on the hill

And the kids down the lot

Are burning cruisers for a thrill

See, we had each other

It was us against the world

Famous for nothing

Yeah, nothing was our world



Well these lies won't save me

Don't you know, don't you know

From the time that made me

Here we go, here we go



The courts are filling up

All the kids are coming down

For a head start on the troubles

Of a long night on the town

Yeah, thank God it's Saturday

And half my problems go away

Sure the big ones on the way

But I know how to handle them

9 to 3 on weekdays

On the hour Sundays

The good lord was calling me

But I wasn't up

From the convent to the rectory

And over in the sacristy

I'm a goddamn travesty

And that's just my luck



Well these lies won't save me

Don't you know, don't you know

From the time that made me

Here we go, here we go



Here we go! Yeah!



Their gang went my way for basketball

My gang went their way for alcohol

When we met it wasn't pretty at all

Still the bells of St. Mary's kept ringing



9 to 3 on weekdays

On the hour Sundays

Jesus Christ was calling me



Here we go! Yeah!



Their gang went my way for basketball

My gang went their way for alcohol

When we met it wasn't pretty at all

Still the bells of St. Mary's kept ringing



Their gang went my way for basketball

My gang went their way for alcohol

When we met it wasn't pretty at all

Still the bells of St. Mary's were ringing

The bells of St. Mary's were ringing

SAOSIN LYRICS - Deep Down

SAOSIN LYRICS



"Deep Down"






I’m seeing the ocean is rising

Let the water wash it all away

Feel like there’s never tomorrow

When there’s no escaping yesterday

Do you ever miss that feeling?

Don’t pretend like you’re the one who’s lost

I can see the ocean is rising

And I keep sinking



Deep down

It’s getting hard to breathe now

I’m reaching out to touch you

And I can’t feel at all

No I can’t feel at all



I watch the waves from underwater

See the ocean push you all the way

Live like there’s no today

Do you ever get that feeling

You’re the only one who ever pays a cost

Well I’m just as lost



Deep down

It’s getting hard to breathe now

I’m reaching out to touch you

And I can’t feel at all

Deep down

It’s getting hard to breathe now

I’m reaching out to touch you

And I can’t feel at all

No I can’t feel at all



Save yourself, if nothing else

You should save yourself, if nothing else

Save yourself, if nothing else

You should save yourself, if nothing else



The oceans rise above me

Will the water help me find my way

Wash it away



Deep down

It’s getting hard to breathe now

I’m reaching out to touch you

And I can’t feel at all

Deep down

It’s getting hard to breathe now

I’m reaching out to touch you

And I can’t feel at all

No I can’t feel at all

NO RELAX LYRICS - Maria

NO RELAX LYRICS



"Maria"






Tengo que escribir esta carta

María no puede estar en su casa

Y nunca dicen si podrá volver

Yo quiero verla aquí, asomada a la ventana.



Y tendrá hacia ti mil detalles

Te dará su amor aunque no hable

Sacara filo a tu imaginación

Debes darle tu cariño y agua no le falte por favor!



Alguien dijo ayer por la tele

Tienes que acatar nuestras leyes

Y ya en tu casa no podrá crecer,

Si algún vecino chivato no paga lo que debe.



Puedes tener 3 fusiles,

Veneno y alcohol en barriles

Y aunque aseguren que es por tu bien…

Consume drogas legales que dejan beneficio.



Nos enredan con sus normas

Sus informes desinforman.

Somos libres para producir.



Agárrate, viene curva y no sabes porque

Quieren prohibir, que decidas como has de vivir

Hoy como ayer, nada cambia aunque cambien de piel

Te quieren ver, numerado y en fila otra vez.



Una cosa se, te lo digo

No hago ningún mal ni busco enemigos

A nadie le obligo a consumir,

Déjame vivir tranquilo, y bébete tu vino.



Legalización es urgente

Quiero decidir libremente

Lo peligroso es que te hará pensar

O se les jode el negocio o es que no lo comprendo.



Yo decido mi destino

Luz o sombra en mi camino

Nací libre y libre he de morir.



Dejarme en paz!

JFA LYRICS - Desert Jewel

JFA LYRICS



"Desert Jewel"






I saw someone today

I'll never see again

she coudl have been a lover

she could have been a friend

I remember things always

like pictures on a wall

so much so randomly

with nothing for me at all



So I'll remember some stupid day

all that I could have done and all I could say

it's the fastest I've ever gone

and the best I can do

and for all its moments it'll never reach you

with all the places I could live

and all the people I could meet

I still don't know what to do

and still I have to eat

you didn't know I was looking

ADOLESCENTS LYRICS - Into The Fire

ADOLESCENTS LYRICS



"Into The Fire"






A single shot then silence springs

An alarm that blew my whole world apart

Infection spread like a hornet sting

The mark of Cain on a bullet



Shot through a poisoned heart

I could feel the taste of bile come up

Then drop like fire washed with gasoline

Too much just ain't enough when bloodied hands come clean



Then we step off the land

Into the fire

Out of the pan

Into the fire

Just grab my hand

And hold on tight

I'll pull you to

The guiding light



The candle flickered, the wind it howled

The waters crashed, the ship set sail at last

I sometimes sense my brothers scowl

Was molded into a smile

By the coroner's wax

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust

Rosetta Stone, no laughter

In the face of mirth

No phoenix rising from the rust

From the earth to the earth

FACTION LYRICS - Tongue Like a Battering Ram

FACTION LYRICS



"Tongue Like a Battering Ram"






With a tongue like a battering ram

the wench is on everyone's scams

Telling stories, telling lies

Causing close friends to divide

A kind word for every face, then puts your words in another place

Twists the tale so she prevails

She's got ways that never fail

Because she's got a tongue like a battering ram

Someone ought to put her in her place

Barging into everyone's space

She's got a tongue like a battering ram

Her best friend is at it too, everyone else plays the fool

Gets her kicks off bathroom walls, she's got them wired, wrote them all

an inquiring mind, she wants to know

Rona Barrett's way too slow

Gonna tell the world someday

Who got drunk and who got laid.

BUCK-O-NINE LYRICS - Few Too Many

BUCK-O-NINE LYRICS



"Few Too Many"






spill your drink on her dress

you see her face she's not impressed

and i think and i guess

that you've had a few to many

go to the bathroom only to find

the door is locked and it's occupied

you spill your guts all over the place



i think you've had one to many

i think i've had one too few

i think you'll find

that the room is spinning

and i think i'll have a laugh on you



your distorted vision and your sweaty palms

isn't helping you keep calm

records are spinning they don't seem to quit

your girlfriend is screaming she's having a fit

broken a window fell off your chair

the gum you were chewin' is now in your hair

you run to the back to get some fresh air

thinking to yourself life ain't fair



an empty bottle on the floor

your passed out cold buy you want some more

you try to speak but your mouth is numb

too much drinking is what you're done

SHERWOOD LYRICS - The Simple Life

SHERWOOD LYRICS



"The Simple Life"






This is the easy life

This is the simple life baby

And you may be just what I

Have always been searching for

A light through an open door, darling

But you're guarding it all night



I will whisper a song in your ear

Oh the things you've been missing my dear

If you remember the tune

It's all I can do

Just remember I wrote it for you



And I carry an open box

Of rusted and broken locks, slowly

Can you show me where to lie?

Cause I'm tired as I can be

My legs aren't a part of me darling

Let us go then, you and I, through the night



I will whisper a song in your ear

Oh the things you've been missing my dear

If you remember the tune

It's all I can do

Just remember I wrote it for you



I will whisper a song in your ear

Oh the things you've been missing my dear

If you remember the tune

It's all I can do

Just remember I wrote it for you

Just remember I wrote it for you

SUBHUMANS LYRICS



"Supermarket Forces"






40 years in the local store

Got forced out by the supermarket

The price of all your favorite meals

Stays low but now you can’t afford it

Send in the supermarket forces

Stick it on a card to save you cash

They know your details in a flash

Streamlined sets the mental tone

Now everyone’s a shopping clone

NOT AVAILABLE LYRICS - Coming Home

NOT AVAILABLE LYRICS



"Coming Home"






This is my home, a special place. Where I can rest my head just hang around a laze.

Where I feel safe and I can hide. And all the people that I like are by my side.

I'm coming home to my old town. The end of loneliness from now on not alone.

I'm driving home, accelerate. Faster and faster, I don't want arrive too late!



[Chorus:]

And I'm rolling and rolling, I'm rolling towards my old town, dirty old town,

I have missed you so much your leafs nearly brown, pretty old town that I searched around.

Yes, I am rolling, I'm rolling, I'm rolling into your heart!



I can't await to see my girl who lives in my green house in this old pretty town.

A tear runs down my dirty face, when I remember all those ordinary days.



[Chorus]

"You're A Turkey"






You're a turkey and I'm in love with you

Gobble Gobble, that's the thing that you do

You're a turkey, you can't even fly

You're a turkey, why would you even try?



You're a turkey and I'm in love with you

Gobble Gobble, that's the thing that you do

You're a turkey, you can't even fly

You're a turkey, why would you even try?



Draw a line around your hand

And add some feathers, a beak and an eye

And take a good look, there you are



(Waahh-oooo-ba-ah)

You're a turkey and I'm in love with you [x4] (Ahh)

UPSTANDING YOUTH LYRICS - Broken Path

UPSTANDING YOUTH LYRICS



"Broken Path"






The railroad tracks reflect the setting sun,

blazing softly around the bend.

The railroad engineer has one last hope,

that those severed rails are just a bad dream.



[Chorus:]

Are we built to last?

Are we built to last?

Our lives lived too fast?

Are we built to last?



This teenager with his heavy mind

contemplates just what he’s done.

Dirty shoes beat down a dusty road.

Here his hopes and fears will never be told.



[Chorus]



Walking through a field,

the weeds and thorns, they cling and tear my skin.

Taking this short cut over again with the same old consequence.

My mind wanders to a familiar thought

a broken path, a burning sky, an engineer

is where this story is forever.

LAME DUCKS LYRICS - Times In Oblivion

LAME DUCKS LYRICS



"Times In Oblivion"






How could I ever understand how this was for you?

And could any of my words linger your pain?

Whenever I see you, I still think about the day you came to get some help.

I stood there with nothing to say.

Why was it so hard for me to tell you that I care about you?

What can be said to comfort you? I din't know what to do..

In the church when you looked at me.

Outside when I cried for you.

What a bittersweet life.

Why did your father have to die?

Now I just can't stop thinking about all the times I wish I had told you.

That time, falls into oblivion.

Try to understand that life is so fucking surreal.

Try to talk to me. Tell me what you feel,

and let me say I care about you.

TEEN IDOLS LYRICS - Porno Shop

TEEN IDOLS LYRICS



"Porno Shop"






Johnny has a dream to make the scene

Where all he has to do is make young girls scream

Unbuckling his belt will surely make them melt

Turning butter into cream



For now, hes an unknown who's content to take orders

Stocking magazines, turning fives into quarters

Soon he'll make them see that hes got what it takes

When they get a look at his 14 inch snake



He's got a job at a porno shop where he mops up for free

Oh, it may suck now

But he knows somehow

He'll see his face on a T. V. screen



Each day he drags a mop

Across the sticky peep show floor

Knowing all the time that there has to be more

Noting all the scenes from his favorite magazines

Starring girls he so adores

THE MOVIELIFE LYRICS - Kelly

THE MOVIELIFE LYRICS



"Kelly"






When Kelly cries, the makeup runs from her eyes

And spills the truth about how she feels inside

When Kelly screams, it usually means I'm not being me

But she's not being her, but anyway



A second chance means nothing,

If nothing's learned from past mistakes

And I'm sure we felt the weight, the weight



Cause three whole years fall on deaf ears

Are these snowflakes or solid tears?

Three whole years fall on deaf ears

If you can't understand our fears, it's not fair to me



Do you remember when? Kelly, do you remember when?

When I figured it was cool, and I figured wrong



A second chance means nothing,

If nothing's learned from past mistakes

And I'm sure we felt the weight



And do you know how I know?

Because all those times we looked in each other's eyes,

And we ignored all the signs



Cause three whole years fall on deaf ears

Are these snowflakes or solid tears?

Three whole years fall on deaf ears

If you can't understand our fears, it's not fair to me



Do you remember when? Kelly, do you remember when?

When I figured it was cool, and I figured wrong

Do you remember when? Kelly, do you remember when?

When I figured it was cool, and I figured wrong



Why do I even try? (I don't know, it's all for nothing)

Why do I even try? (I don't know, it's all for nothing)

I waited for you, will you wait for me too?

Yeah wait for me, yeah wait for me, it's not fair to me



Do you remember when? Kelly, do you remember when?

When you figured it was cool, and you figured wrong

Do you remember when? Kelly, do you remember when?

When you figured it was cool, and you figured wrong

You figured wrong, you figured wrong, you figured wrong

You figured it was cool, and you figured wrong

MXPX LYRICS - Don't Look Back

MXPX LYRICS



"Don't Look Back"






Does it matter to you, does it matter to me?

Does it matter to anybody?

Just when you thought it was safe

Just when you thought you were free

Don't look back



In this life we don't have a lot of time

We don't have the time to waste it

We've got to make the best of what we have

But you don't know what you have

Or what you don't have



It's like being tired but you just can't sleep

Your bed is obsolete

It's like finding out the best things in life are free

After you already paid



In this life we don't have a lot of time

We don't have the time to waste it

We've got to make the best of what we have

But you don't know what you have

Or what you don't have



I want to make a difference in this world

A choice to a change to change the choice

I want to take control of my own life

Treat everybody right

I'm gonna try, I'm gonna try, gonna try



I want to make a difference in this world

A choice to a change to change the choice

I want to take control of my own life

Treat everybody right

I'm gonna try

BAD RELIGION LYRICS - Misery And Famine

BAD RELIGION LYRICS



"Misery And Famine"






so proud a history, replete with sanctity, orbs in their harmony, they

sing their code to me, have you ever heard yourself the orbit that you

are in? the terse, oppressive blanket that's instilled here by our

spin, it's misery and famin, it's a force we cannot see, misery and

famine, it compels us naturally, misery and famine, great ellipse, we

bend to thee, misery and famine, just accept your vagrancy, others who

bear no name, who feel that life's a game, my verse they will defame,

we suffer all the same, they pay no regard to their position or their

speed, but the firmament still covers them with its malevolent seed,

it's misery and famine..., "you look for meaning in things no one

comprehends, you feel no affinity to the rabble we're in", sources of

inquiry have nothing to portend, they will perplex us all until the

coming end, a feeling of despair, hungry and full of care, we resent

everywhere the fortune that we share, "this earth could be a better

place" is a concept i condone, given our pathetic course our destiny

is known, it's misery and famine...

FRANKY LEE LYRICS - Your Complexion

FRANKY LEE LYRICS



"Your Complexion"






Are you lost inside your mind?

You're giving it up and hope you'll find

The reason why you're stuck inside

Wait a minute to close that door

I understand now, you fight this war

You've gotta leave it this time, we will always stay true



Will you live now to understand?

Will you give to this open hand?

Let's play it out now



You gave it all your best to deny

You live it all too fast to know why

I opened up your mind to rewind

All of your thoughts

Don't close it all, just let it out



That's what it's all about

You gotta let it out

To understand what's right

You've gotta take the fight



Now you're lost inside this lie

I've got my reasons to ask why

You put the human behaviour aside

You feel the guilt now, we share the blame

It doesn't matter, it's all the same

This is the end if you'll never be able to bend



Will you live now to understand?

Will you give to this open hand?

Let's play it out now



You gave it all your best to deny

You live it all too fast to know why

I opened up your mind to rewind

All of your thoughts

Don't close it all, just let it out



You gave it all your best to deny

You live it all too fast to know why

I opened up your mind to rewind

All of your thoughts

Don't close it all, just let it out



(You gave it all your best to deny)

You live it all too fast to know why

I opened up your mind to rewind

All of your thoughts

Don't close it all, just let it out

STREET DOGS LYRICS - In Defense Of Dorchester

STREET DOGS LYRICS



"In Defense Of Dorchester"






Staring down Cedar Grove up on Indian Hills

See a skyline littered with triple deckers and gin mills

Years of tot lot pass my eyes

Reflecting faces that have gone by

Adams corner embedded in my soul



In defense of Dorchester

Home to a thousand dreams and Beantown legends

In defense of Dorchester

Historical revelence cemented in her sidewalks



Gather up my thoughts stroll through the observation fields

Think about Dot detractors well up with a rapid anger

Because I can't help but sing for her

It gets real personal when she is slurred

Can't forget Garvey and Hemey Park



In defense of Dorchester

A real community not idle zip codes

In defense of Dorchester

I forged a life on these streets and city roads



This is who I am

This is where I'm from

Wear it on my sleeve

Predictably the fire brand



Never stay silent when she's assailed

Into my heart advocacy nailed

Lower Mills I did not forget you



In defense of Dorchester

Home to a thousand dreams and Beantown legends

In defense of Dorchester

No matter where the gang winds up, you'll always be my home

LIFE ON REPEAT LYRICS - Separation

LIFE ON REPEAT LYRICS



"Separation"






[Verse]

You died, you died

with nothing left to offer but

these lies, these lies

and everything she dreamed for

is lying on the floor.

And when you took her everything

you threw away her faith in you.

So ignore the problem,

yeah ignore the problem.

And then you'll pay for what you did.



[Chorus]

You've been running out the back door baby,

She'd do anything to see that boy again.

And now the thought of separation,

takes the blame away.



[Verse]

This has been unbearable you

can't believe this is happening.

(I beg to differ)(I beg to differ)

I beg to differ.

Woah-ah-oh, woah-ah-oh.

Woah-ah-oh, woah-ah-oh.



[Chorus]

You've been running out the back door baby,

She'd do anything to see that boy again.

And now the thought of separation,

takes the blame away. [2x]



Oh. Is this real?

Is there anyone

that'll save you? [2x]



[Chorus]

You've been running out the back door baby,

She'd do anything to see that boy again.

And now the thought of separation,

takes the blame away. [3x]

POISON IDEA LYRICS - This Thing Called Progress

POISON IDEA LYRICS



"This Thing Called Progress"






Look to see where you've been from standing at the start again,

Stand up backwards, that's a fact, who's gonna follow your attack,

Try to keep what you've got, even if it's not a lot,

Everyday people die and starve but not you,

Crazy, mixed up, screwed up, its all falling apart real fast,

The next thing you hear might be an atomic blast,

Were going straight downhill from here,

Businessmen, politicians, government, stacks it up,

It's vital, punks, radicals, tear it down,

Look to see where we've been from standing at the start again,

Don't believe what you read,

Crazy, mixed up, screwed up, its falling apart real fast,

Have fun this time around because it might be the last,

This thing called progress makes me sick.

MIGHTY MIGHTY BOSSTONES LYRICS - Think Again

MIGHTY MIGHTY BOSSTONES LYRICS



"Think Again"



Originally by Minor Threat






Everybody's right! Everything I've done is wrong wrong wrong! I've tried to keep it short. You Know it took too fucking long. Too much has been said, you think it fucked my head? Think again! Ignorance, it set your standards. Intelligence, that don't work in your brain. You're and adult, but you act like a child. Don't even try to explain. This stupid shit, it's been done. You think you're the only one? Think again! A hand to the mouth, a performing yawn. You think you know what the fuck is going on? You're on top, you're on the ball. You think you've seen it all? Think again! Before you take another crack and slap yourself on the back. Before you tell me what you've heard and sum it up in just one word. Before you start talking shit. Before you throw another fit. Think again!

NOFX LYRICS



"Bang Gang"






We don't care, cause we're in a gang

Parties that we go to end up in a bang

Look at us funny and we'll shoot you dead

While we're there, we'll fill 'em with lead



Of all the gangs, we are the worst

We'll be the last, but we weren't the first

We've been in together for a year and a half

There goes our future, but we live in the past



Let's go out shoot some people tonight

We use guns, cause we don't wanna lose a fight

When we'll fight, it's 20 on 1

Cause fighting that way, is much more fun



Everyone knows that we're so bad

Our nights are long and our days are sad

Cause when we go out, someone might die

But we don't care cause we're in a gang

FIFTEEN LYRICS - Sinseriously

FIFTEEN LYRICS



"Sinseriously"






In this world of changing faces

New ideas from newer places

Come learn from their distant traces

We all have something to give.

In crying for peace for eternal places

Hugs and kisses and good vibrations.

Bring forth to this new celebration

And let the new world begin

Experience the world so you can see

Different kinds of people in different countries

You'll find you're no different from the rest

Laughing at the same jokes crying at someones death

Not to know someone yet trust them.

Without worry or assumption is great, but you better watch out.

Cuz without hate there is no love, and without love

There is no hope to help ourselves.

Break out of our shells.

For we must show who we are

We must show what were made of

We're all special people inside

So let's bring forth to what we've created

And let the new world begin

Experience the world so you can see

Different kinds of people in different countries

You'll find you're no different from the rest

Laughing at the same jokes crying at someone's death

If you try to look inside

You'll find what you need

All the ways to be happy

All the ways to be truly free

You'll find that introverted is not what you wanted to be.

In this world of changing faces

New ideas from newer places

Come learn from them

We all have something to give.

In crying for peace for eternal places

Hugs and kisses and good vibrations.

Bring forth to this new celebration

And let the new world begin

For we must trust each other

To believe in one another

For if we try and we do succeed

We'll find true tranquility

In crying for peace for eternal places

Hugs and kisses and good vibrations.

Bring forth to this new celebration

And let the new world begin

Experience the world so you can see

Different kinds of people in different countries

You'll find you're no different from the rest

Laughing at the same jokes crying at someones death
