BOWLING FOR SOUP LYRICS - Other Girls

BOWLING FOR SOUP LYRICS



"Other Girls"






It only takes a minute

Yeah a minute or two

Just like stubbing your toe

Or slamming the door on your finger

Pull out the stinger

And then move on the the next little drama queen

Then go and get some sleep

And dream

Yeah lay your head back and dream

About the girl you had

That broke your broken heart

The one that said she'd love you from the start

And when the nightmares over

Call and thank her for

All the



Memories

Injuries

Flowered sheets and hypocrisies

All the picture frames

The carpet stains

And say thank you for your time



That's what other girls are for

If we run out somebody will make some more

No need to pick yourself up off the floor

Cause that's what other girls are for



It doesn't make a difference

It doesn't matter at all

She's just another chapter

Another song you loved, then hated

She's overrated

So send her flowers

Saying thank you for all the



There's just something about 'em you know

They're like top 40 radio

And if you're having trouble letting go

Then maybe you should move to Canada now

REEL BIG FISH LYRICS - The New Version Of You

REEL BIG FISH LYRICS



"The New Version Of You"






When did you quit pulling all of the stops for me

And when did your one hundred and ten per-cent

Become under fifty

There you are phoning it in

Going through the motions with an artificial grin

You say that you're getting better

You say that you're getting better



You say you're becoming a better person

One that isn't so lame

You say you're becoming a better person

But I still feel the same



It's the new, it's the new, new version of you

It's the new, it's the new, new version of you

It's the new, it's the new, new version of you

If there's one thing I'd like to do

It's kill the new version of you



When did you start wearing all of those clothes to be cool

And when did you start using all that slang?

I can't understand you

I bet you'd forget to say "I love you"

If the teleprompter hadn't told you

You say that you're getting better

You say that you're getting better



You say you're becoming a better person

One that isn't so lame

You say you're becoming a better person

But I still feel the same



It's the new, it's the new, new version of you

It's the new, it's the new, new version of you

It's the new, it's the new, new version of you

If there's one thing I'd like to do

It's kill the new version of you



Who are you?

I don't know now

You got me wondering I wonder

How you got to be so different now



You say you're becoming a better person

One that isn't so lame

You say you're becoming a better person

But I still feel the same

I still feel the same



It's the new, it's the new, new version of you

It's the new, it's the new, new version of you

It's the new, it's the new, new version of you

If there's one thing I'd like to do

It's kill the new version of you

SUGARCULT LYRICS - Hiatus

SUGARCULT LYRICS



"Hiatus"






The distance between the sheets

When chemicals compete

The friction of skin is deathly unbearable, yeah

The basics of war are near

The coward's in you and me

There's no turning back

We walked into this

Don't confuse it



Love

Wasted on the young

Detonate it run

Never wanted all the hard, the breaks at all



Bodies with no remorse

Clothing lines the floors

The red on the skin is fading slowly

Dancing lonely



Love

Wasted on the young

Detonate it run

Never wanted all the hard, the breaks at all

Taken by it fast

Sacred in the moment

I can feel your breath

You couldn't save me

Taken by it fast

Sacred in the moment

I predict the worst

You're going to hate me



(Wasted on the young)



I could leave all of this behind

I should leave all of this behind



Love

Wasted on the young

Detonate it run

Never wanted all the hard, the breaks at all

Taken by it fast

Sacred in the moment

I can feel your breath

You couldn't save me

Taken by it fast

Sacred in the moment

I predict the worst

You're going to hate me



(Wasted on the young)

You couldn't save me

(Wasted on the young)



I can't live this way forever

I cannot live this way forever

TAKE IT BACK! LYRICS - Rise Above

TAKE IT BACK! LYRICS



"Rise Above"



Originally by Black Flag






Jealous cowards try to control

Rise above

We're gonna rise above

They distort what we say

Rise above

We're gonna rise above

Try and stop what we do

Rise above

When they can't do it themselves



We are tired of your abuse

Try to stop us it's no use



Society's arms of control

Rise above

We're gonna rise above

Think they're smart

Can't think for themselves

Rise above

We're gonna rise above

Laugh at us

Behind our backs

I find satisfaction

In what they lack



We are tired of your abuse

Try to stop us it's no use



We are born with a chance

Rise above

We're gonna rise above

I am gonna have my chance

Rise above

We're gonna rise above



We are tired of your abuse

Try to stop us it's no use



Rise above

Rise above

We're gonna rise above

We're gonna rise above

We're gonna rise above

THE PROMISE DRIVE LYRICS - A Mid-Summer Nights Waltz

THE PROMISE DRIVE LYRICS



"A Mid-Summer Nights Waltz"






The suns sets and the street lights flicker on.

Another night on the town without you.

I'll write a hundred songs about her that she will never hear.

She will never hear me say "I love you. I miss you.

Without you...I'll be lonely.", but that's the story of my life.

I guess I could sing about how I'm sorry that I never took the time

to tell you how I feel, but that would be a lie.

I have no regrets and we both had our chance to say

"I love you. I miss you. Without you...I'll be lonely."

No, everything's not alright. It's 4 AM and I'm lying in bed.

Three hours until the sun will rise and dry the dew off

the windshield of the car I used to pick you up on Saturdays.

It's 4 AM and I'm lying in bed dreaming of you.

I don't want to wake up or say goodbye.

WAR OF WORDS LYRICS - Full Circle

WAR OF WORDS LYRICS



"Full Circle"






now order is restored by the ones

dissatisfied with the order from before

civilization is such a chore

so we saw the end of war but just the end for now

if we've learned anything before

it's such a bore



who stands where the new leaders stood before

just on the other side of that thin dividing door



and it's a sound so familiar

as the new voices of discontent

rise up from the wartorn streets

VANILLA SKY LYRICS - Nightmare

VANILLA SKY LYRICS



"Nightmare"






What am I doing here?

What happened before?

Did I mess up?

Someone is calling me

Someone is whispering

Daniel wake up



And it makes me feel bad

When I find that you're not here

And it makes me so scared

When I find that I'm alone



I can't remember

I was holding your hand tight

Lost in that light

Suddenly I'm here

Darkness around me

Should I wake up



And it makes me feel bad

When I find that you're not here

And it makes me so scared

When I find that I'm alone



Please save me



I can't remember

what happened before

Should I wake up and call your name loud and on?



And it makes me feel bad

When I find that you're not here

And it makes me so scared

When I find that I'm alone

ASTERIA LYRICS - A Second Chance To Make A First Impression

ASTERIA LYRICS



"A Second Chance To Make A First Impression"






wish upon a shooting star

for heightened contemplation of suicide

kiss of death with a birth defect

or eulogy gets the best of me

in this dark and scary world

these fucked up images control everything

controlling my passion to lose it all

if you know what i mean



and i want you in my room

and i want you in my bed

girl don't turn the lights off

i want to see your eyes

and i want you on my floor

and i want you one time more

cause i can't get enough

you're so indiscreet so anonymous



loaded words weigh down phrases

holding too much clout

this conversations turned to rambling

this relationship has turned to nothing

so keep screaming baby

cause i am wrong

and two can make it right



and i want you in my room

and i want you in my bed

girl don't turn the lights off

i want to see your eyes

and i want you on my floor

and i want you one time more

cause i can't get enough

you're so indiscreet so anonymous



and she's all mine



and i want you in my room

and i want you in my bed

girl don't turn the lights off

i want to see your eyes

and i want you on my floor

and i want you one time more

cause i can't get enough

BEYOND POSSESSION LYRICS - Vengeance

BEYOND POSSESSION LYRICS



"Vengeance"






Alive despite ridiculous odds

I've had a wretched life

My body's scarred I'm nearly blind

And I seek revenge for this grisly crime

Okay



Searching the world for this evil man

Who put me in this state?

My body seethes in frenzied rage

I can almost smell his bloody fate



One day I swear I'll have my revenge

I'll bring this monster to his end

Edging closer, manhunt, revenge

Living for my vengeance



Sitting alone in his house waiting

His presence fills the room

Flick the switch, the wash of light

Reveals his morbid doom



Screams of pain and suffering

Are lost out in the light

Laughing as he cries and begs

I carve away his fucked up life



One day I swear I'll get my revenge

I'll bring this monster to his end

Edging closer, manhunt, revenge

Living for my vengeance

COHEED AND CAMBRIA LYRICS - The Camper Velourium II: Backend Of Forever

COHEED AND CAMBRIA LYRICS



"The Camper Velourium II: Backend Of Forever"






Rocked silent in a soft lullaby

panic stirred me awakened by a ringing phone in time

where and when would I see her?

Crazy were the words that scribbled out your mouth

I stuttered replacing your face to those words

where and when would I kill her?

I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this

I, I'll wish... to the bitter end of my day

Well, where were you?



[Chorus:]

So you had your turn and you made it work

now I'm the laughing stock of your joke

as crazy as it may seem I cried for you when you

told me to date all of the things that made you end up in my life

and I'll believe anything I have no luck with girls

I overheard that you were unhappy too

misleading toss into a relationship that makes no sense

over and out Connecticut

but you had your back turned there as you faded away

to the end of my day I found out

you weren't worth what I thought of you

what I thought of you



write this down in your diary you abuse

can we make plans can I just get through to you

is this weird...do I scare her?

I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this

I, I'll wish... that you could share the love you'd shared with others, with me



[Chorus]



This isn't love so forever let it go...forever let it burn

This isn't love there on the backend of forever

I wish I would never hurt again [w/ ad libs]

ARMOR FOR SLEEP LYRICS - Remember To Feel Real

ARMOR FOR SLEEP LYRICS



"Remember To Feel Real"






So here's the truth

you were right all along

they were never my friends

and I was living a lie

but I won't fall for it next time



You figured me out

I'm like a leaf in the wind

I try to find who I am

but wind up lost in the end

sometimes it's hard to know what's real when your not



'Cause you know I change myself

to impress whoever happens to be next to me

but I'm sick of trying so hard

waste all your time with me

I know I'm a mess right now

don't give up believe

I'd wait it out for you

waste all your time with me

I know I'm a mess right now

don't give up believe

I'd wait it out for you



Everyday I'm just making my rounds

just digging a home six feet underground

sometimes it's hard to know what's real when you're not



'Cause you know I change myself

to impress whoever happens to be next to me

but I'm sick of trying so hard

waste all your time with me

I know I'm a mess right now

don't give up believe

I'd wait it out for you

waste all your time with me

I know I'm a mess right now

don't give up believe

I'd wait it out for you



Nothing's here for me

Nothing's here for me

But you

Nothing's here for me

But you



Waste all your time with me

I know I'm a mess right now

don't give up believe

I'd wait it out for you

waste all your time with me

I know I'm a mess right now

don't give up believe

I'd wait it out for you



I'd wait it out for you!

I'd wait it out for you!

THE HUSH SOUND LYRICS - Lighthouse

THE HUSH SOUND LYRICS



"Lighthouse"






Take what you need while there's time

The city will be earth in a short while

If I'm not mistaken it's been in flames

You and I will escape to the seaside



There is a storm in the distance

The wind breathing warning of its imminence

There is a lighthouse five hundred yards down

You and I will be safe there



There is a girl who haunts that lighthouse

She saved me, I was swimming

So young I almost drowned

Under the water she sang a story

Of losing her lover

She calls a warning



Love, you are foolish, you're tired

Your sleeplessness makes you a liar

The city is burning

The ocean is turning

Our only chance is the lighthouse



Her lover was a sailor

She went and she waited there

The door locked from the outside

Lover never arrived so she sings there

Soft as a siren luring the ships off their course, how alarming



We went in, we climbed up and looked out

The door locked from the outside

Three ghosts in a lighthouse

NORTHSTAR LYRICS - For Anyone But You

NORTHSTAR LYRICS



"For Anyone But You"






When the shadows fall behind

I pick them up to carry on my way

I looked up and you looked so kind

Looked back down when you were falling behind



When shadows fall behind

Picked you up to carry on my way

I looked up and you looked so kind

Looked back down when you were falling behind



How can I pick you up?

(With no hands of my own?)

Whew!



Well, I love the way your hands touch mine

Like a gift from god, worth a lifetime

In case tomorrow doesn’t find its way

Just stay love is forever don't throw it away



How can I pick you up?

(With no hands of my own?)

Whew!

SCAPEGOAT LYRICS - The Hurricane

SCAPEGOAT LYRICS



"The Hurricane"






Stride forth as you would in last days

It's time to wake up, get up and get out

Or get the fuck out my way

Yea I'm hell bent on a mission

I'm steadfast for a cure

I aim to shake the beasts foundation

To it's very core

I'm coming for ya, that whore

To make a change



Question authority

Question the government

Question all you assume to be true

We made our money off the towers we tombed

We made our money off our land on the moon

Question the government

I want some fucking proof

I want the God damn truth

Was there ever a man on the moon?



Come on baby tell me come on



Hey you down below

You may not have a stage but you have stone

So let us be your rock, to rock and roll

And dance the way you do

Dance the way you do



Change your ways

Question authority

Question the government

Become a staple for your peers through the end of days

Question all you assume to be true

Cause these days they send you to the gallows for questioning

(We made our money off the towers we tombed)

(We made our money off our land on the moon)

(Question the government)

I want some fucking proof

I want the God damn truth

Was there ever a man on the moon?



R.!

F.!

I.!

D.!

Chips in every single person that you see

Overtaxed, overworked, underpaid

Now we're tagged with a radio frequency

It's time to wake up and smell the shit

(We're not that far off)

We're neck deep in it



Let us be your rock, to rock and roll

And dance the way you do

Dance the way you do



Their lies were formed to slowly eat at you

The bugs under my skin are on the creeping again

Join in hands or let us remain

An accomplice in the shadows of our government's gain



Change your ways

Question authority

Question the government

Become a staple for your peers through the end of days

Question all you assume to be true

Cause these days they send you to the gallows for questioning

(We made our money off the towers we tombed)

(We made our money off our land on the moon)

(Question the government)

I want some fucking proof

I want the God damn truth

Was there ever a man on the moon?



Was there ever a man on the moon?

Was there ever a man on the moon?

NEKROMANTIX LYRICS



"Bloody Holiday"






Running through the night,

The moon is shining bright,

Yeah man, trapped,

I want to get away,

I wanna leave this hell,

It's evil I can tell,

Oh what a Bloody Holiday.



What a bloody, bloody,

Summer holiday



7 Days vacation,

Worse than mama said,

Monsters all around this pad,

Even in my bed,

Trying to escape quietly,

I saw all hell break loose,

A nightmare

I want to go home



Evil creatures everywhere,

This is more than I can bear,

13 channels worth of pain,

Oh no, no they're back again



I watched the blood dripping

From the knife in my hand,

Running from the real me,

Man understand,

Now I realize what I'll forever be,

Visit our summer camp,

And then you will see

KARATE HIGH SCHOOL LYRICS - The Empire State

KARATE HIGH SCHOOL LYRICS



"The Empire State"






No matter how far

No matter, I fall apart

Remember, you came from the stars

and you're perfect just the way you are

Once underground, light never hit my face

I took the staircase up and into your embrace

The concrete is hot, warmed by the rays of a thousand suns

I let the memory burn before the moment is gone

On a night somewhere in the big city air

With a scientist in an ambulance

Remember you came from the stars,

and you're perfect just the way you are

The lights are flashing

We'll run and never stop

It's only five flights up until we reach the top

So delicate, the gentle truth of our memory

And in the darkest night, I feel your light shining down on me

No matter how far we're apart

No matter, I fall apart

No matter how far, and no matter how long

that we are apart, I will always be true
