WORTHLESS UNITED LYRICS - Nothing

WORTHLESS UNITED LYRICS



"Nothing"






Too old to die, too young to stay alive.

Nothing matters yet I've got my whole life to regret,

just give me time and I'll let life pass me by

and I can close my eyes to opportunity,

to responsibility, to what I don't want to see.

I'll burn my bridges if I want to.

You can't tell me what to do cause I won't listen to you,

to anyone, to anything because I know nothing.

Twenty-four thousand dollars and four years down the drain

and I'm still working for a slave wage.

Oh yes, I know that I'm a worthless piece of shit,

that I should get off my ass and start making it.

But I'm lazy.

I'm a spoiled little brat with a silver spoon that I keep spitting back in your face.

I'm your little disgrace that you can smack back in to place

and treat me wrong because I know nothing.

How many times will you tell me that I know nothing?

Nothing comforts me.

Nothing comes from me and nothing is what will become of me.

Now you see.

Now you don't and it's better that way.

I'd hate to disappoint you for nothing.

D. B.S. LYRICS - Will You Accept The Charges?

D. B.S. LYRICS



"Will You Accept The Charges?"






I just want one night to tell you I'm sorry because I miss your bad days and I miss your morning.

Now I sleep accross this land with no more problems than an empty heart and empty hands.

But one night I'll write you, maybe from California. And I'll want to go back to the rain and cold.

And one night you'll call me looking for a cup of coffee and I'll sleep deeper knowing that you've been told.

But one night I'll write you, maybe from Arizona. I'll wait for you to call.

JUST SURRENDER LYRICS - She Broke My Heart, So I Broke His Jaw

JUST SURRENDER LYRICS



"She Broke My Heart, So I Broke His Jaw"






Take apart every piece of this machine,

Leave my broken body in the street,

I'll stammer drunk and hallow to your doorstep



You'll say

Don't even breathe his name

You'll say

Don't you dare



One shot is all that I would need

Tonight I'll have you on your knees

I'll make you see

(I'll have you begging for his life tonight)

One shot is all I'd ever need

Tonight I'll have you on your knees

I'll make you believe

I'll make you believe



And now you'll see

Just how desperate that we both can be

And now you'll see

That you could never live

Live without me



One shot is all I that I would need

Tonight I'll have you on your knees

I'll make you see

(I'll have you begging for his life tonight)

One shot is all I that I would need

Tonight I'll have you on your knees

I'll make you believe [x3]

COHEED AND CAMBRIA LYRICS



"The End Complete V: On The Brink"






The worlds have now learned of the worst yet to come.

On the brink of an end, a boy learns to run.

How you love, or could you, Mr. Man of the Year?

Walking tall with nothing to fear.



Don't pass up this chance,

Oh, go tear down the walls.

No Gods will be watching, no one cares enough at all.



These words need now an ending, as they did at the start.

But I'll keep on pretending,

I won't go.



Don't cry no more, boy.

You've got the other side of your life, so enjoy.

I'll move out the front door,

And take out your trash,

But I'll no longer be haunting here,

I'm not coming back.



The world must know my story,

So long Amory.

Please drive me home one last time.



Hail! [x57]

NAKED RAYGUN LYRICS - I Don't Know

NAKED RAYGUN LYRICS



"I Don't Know"






Listen now to what I say

About the kids of today

Subscribe to them all your fears

'Til they become like you



What poor gods we do make

What poor gods we do make

What poor gods we do make

What poor gods we do make

I don't know

I don't know

I don't know

I don't know



So listen now to what I say

About the kids of today

Subscribe to them all your fears

'Til they become like you



Teach them all your fallacies

Contain them in reality

Subscribe to them all your fears

'Til they become like you



Then a slippage happens

In your ranks

And causes all... Your morals sank

For us to create our own

And we became like you



What poor gods we do make

What poor gods we do make

What poor gods we do make

What poor gods we do make

I don't know

I don't know

I don't know

I don't know



What poor gods we do make

What poor gods we do make

I don't know

I don't know

NO USE FOR A NAME LYRICS - Pride

NO USE FOR A NAME LYRICS



"Pride"






I see you clinging, stereotyping

Just to feel comfort, just to belong.

Desperate for meaning to make sense of your life.

Let me try to make you understand, you got it wrong.



You're not going to catch me waving flags over my head,

Looking straight and standing tall.

I refuse to build the wall by adding my own bricks

That separate us all.



I'd rather die

Than be a part of your pride.



This ain't the homeland they've written books on.

Never have been there, how would you know?

Following footsteps that will get you nowhere

And living by some rules that were made up one-hundred years ago.



You're not going to find me digging through my family-tree

Just to find out who I am.

I don't need to know that I'm linked to some murderer

To live on the same land.



I'd rather die

Than be a part of your pride.

Than be a part of your pride.



So it looks like I'll be here for a long time now.

Some things are better left mysteries.

Can't change the future when living in the past,

So do what you want, I'll decide my own history.

JET LAG GEMINI LYRICS - The Bad Apples

JET LAG GEMINI LYRICS



"The Bad Apples"






You've got nothing to live for you're a plague

A filthy fucking drain on the world

And everything it holds.

So I stopped talking to myself it's getting old

I'm getting old like this song.

So fall in line or fall apart and die.



Just go give up hope,

Sink your boat along with you.

So what are you gonna do?



Oh is it me or is your status sold at the mall

Or in your favorite store

Where adolescent hypocrites would go to get clothed

And then get laid, as they creep their way

Into some girl that would feel vain if she said:



Go give up hope and sink your boat along with you.

So what are you gonna do when you lose control?

You'll get it.

When you lose it all.

You'll get it, get it.

LINK 80 LYRICS - Intolerance

LINK 80 LYRICS



"Intolerance"






despite the past and what's taken place you bring back the notion of a master race. the years you've preached, the children you teach. pushing for a world of hate and moral breach. your mind is blind. i just can't relate. you block out the truth when you focus on hate. i hope that you can change and learn you're wrong about this life. no tolerance for racial strife. get the fuck away from me. i'm sick of your desperate pleas. please try and come back to the sane. and stop using race to blame. despite the scars left by hate, you push the wave of racism and hope it's gonna break. you've learned bullshit for such a long time. the disease has spread. now you won't change your mind. let me tell you something that i hope you can grasp. your delusions of granduer, they will not last. and you'll soon understand the truth about this life. no tolerance for racial strife.

SQUIRTGUN LYRICS



"Liar's Corner"






Well my hair is cryin'

In wild mist of liar's corner

Tearin' fruit apart with my bare hands

My hands are cryin' lately

Well, the snow is blowin'

In this war and liar's corner

Tearin' fruit apart with my bare hands

The pears are frozen

And they're fallin' in this liar's corner

Beatin' down Egyptian daughter

Tearin' fruit apart with my bare hands

My hands are sad and lazy

I'm trying to get out of here

Out of my fear

Swallowed up as liar's corner burns

I'm trying to get out of here

Out of last year

Swallowed as liar's corner burns

HORRORPOPS LYRICS - Who's Leading You Now?

HORRORPOPS LYRICS



"Who's Leading You Now?"






Doing everything blind

always need a guide

Someone to make your excuse

Needing someone

To hold your hand

It's always easier when you don't

Need to take the blame

Admitting to something you did,

Just ain't in your capacity

Nothing is easy

But you're telling lies

To place to blame

On someone else



Naive, blind, dumb and totally gone

I'm lost for words, describing how

You're wrong



Who's leading you now....



Sucking everyone dry

You don't how to stop

Leaving me tired and confused

Emotional vampire, attacking all

And leaving emptiness behind

Do you feel wrongly accused

Reading this,

You know it must be you

Demanding, commanding

Is all you do

What makes you above the rest?



Who's leaving you now



Naive, blind and dumb and totally gone

I'm lost for word describing

Just how gone you are

And i'm tired of explaining just how

Wrong you are

Naive, blind, wrong and totally gone

PANDA LYRICS - So Violento, So Macabro

PANDA LYRICS



"So Violento, So Macabro"






Te voy a hablar con la verdad

Me cuesta tanto imaginar

Me cuesta tanto aceptar que el tu y yo ya no se va a usar



Y aprendo una vez más, las cosas que realmente amas te apuñalan la espalda

Y sabes de lo que soy capaz

Tengo un complejo muy crudo y psicópata

Te quiero para mi, sola para mi

Que no ves que conmigo es puro frenesí



Estoy elaborando un plan

Para hacerte enojar

Quiero que te quede claro que si no es conmigo con nadie vas a estar



Confía en mi, amor. lo tengo calculado

Si algo sale mal, pido perdón de ante mano, pues así soy yo



Te tengo amor obsesivo, un poco tétrico

Te invito a sentir malestar sin fin

Dame tu mano, pongámosle fin al sufrir



Y sabes de lo que soy capaz

Tengo un complejo muy crudo y psicópata

No lo hagó por mi, sino por los dos

Será macabro peró salvará nuestro amor

Me tienes que creer, tienes que confiar

El sentimiento es profundo y también real

ALKALINE TRIO LYRICS - While You're Waiting

ALKALINE TRIO LYRICS



"While You're Waiting"






There's a hope in my head

That's been cut and bled

Dry as your bloodshot eyes

And there's smoke in the air

And it's soon to clear

Revealing our demise

There are some who say

That it's a-okay

If it makes you feel alright

It's just way too bad

Now you're worse than sad

All locked up there inside



And I don't know how you feel

But I'll make you a deal

If you make it out alive

My shoulders and ears

Are all yours my dear

I hope it comes as no surprise

You've been known to say

That you're a-okay

When you're feeling sick inside

I just want you to know

I got no place to go

Until the day you die



While you're waiting

Be thankful for your fingers

I'll be fading

With the colors of your pictures

"I'm not crying wolf," you whisper,

"I'm really dead this time...

I'm really dead this time"



There's a hope in my head

That's been cut and bled

Dry as your bloodshot eyes

And there's smoke in the air

And it's soon to clear

Revealing our demise

You've been known to say

That you're a-okay

When you're feeling dead inside

I just want you to know

I got no place to go

Until the day you die



While you're waiting,

Be thankful for your fingers,

I'll be fading

With the colors of your pictures

"I'm not crying wolf," you whisper,

"I'm really dead this time...

I'm really dead this time"



They locked you up

They threw away the key

Sutured your mouth shut

Murdered your family

Right before your eyes

What could you do?

Right before your eyes

They took it all from you



Your contemplating

You hanging from your ceiling

Can't help hating

You for having that feeling

I'm not joking when I tell you

I'd miss you all the time

I already miss you all the time

[chorus] around again, around again going in circles, spinning constantly. i wish i would, i wish i could tell you things would turn out differently. here we go again you always wind up at the beginning in the end. you say it won't happen any more i heard that story a million times before. i can see it in your eyes it's not what you want to do so stop with the lies. you're not a fucking prostitute you don't gain my respect when you let them walk all over you.

CHICOSCI LYRICS



"A Promise"






Now you are my beloved ghost

And here I'll wait for you to sing

Then we will have eternity

A promise to keep haunting me



This wine (this wine)

From my veins (from my veins)

These gifts (these gifts)

We'll take



The sky is ours to keep tonight

Together in this silent sleep

We are the mist that fills the air

Lie still, just be with me



This wine (this wine)

From my veins (from my veins)

These gifts (these gifts)

We'll take



I'll be

The kiss

The gun

We'll be draining their blood again



Embrace the rest of me

We'll be racing through the night

Again, embrace the rest of me

Then feast on them, celebrating



I'm not alone

I can feel your eyes on me

I'm not alone

Your soul for all the world to see



Denied another day

Life took you away

I'll love you just the same



'Cause you are my beloved ghost

And here I'll wait for you to sing (wait for you to sing)

Then we will have eternity

A promise to keep haunting me



The sky is ours to keep tonight (ours to keep tonight)

Together in this silent sleep

We are the mist that fills the air

Lie still, just be with me



I'm not alone

I can feel your eyes on me

I'm not alone

Your soul for all the world to see

To see

DOGWOOD LYRICS - Grease

DOGWOOD LYRICS



"Grease"






Ee-Ai!



Every other hour floating through life,

Everyone says your not the type,

You life's a Christ like life and never were a hellion,

Yet now you teach lessons on the art of rebellion.



We used to make fun of people who were two faced,

So now you mock your parents who preach until they're blue faced,

Some say it aint over till the fat lady sings,

Well boy your saran wrap has lost its cling.



Your light has lost its ferver,

You've got no self control,

You've dwindled down to nothing,

You're just stuck in that filthy black hole.



But there's always a guy who will welcome you back,

He'll get your life on the narrow track,

Doesn't take much except a broken soul,

He'll warm you up and bring you in from the cold.



Your light has lots of ferver,

You've got much self control,

You sir have definatly become someone,

You're not stuck in that filthy black hole.

BURY TOMORROW LYRICS - Seven Stars

BURY TOMORROW LYRICS



"Seven Stars"






This trip will be my last, her bones buried in the sand.

This night will live inside our hearts.

Until these seven stars, set her free from her struggle.

These lies will drag her under, suicide.



This is my suicide, This is my last goodbye.



With your hands behind your head, I'll do whatever I please.

Your Tears Won't even reach the floor, your life won't even reach the door.



Run for your life, under these stars watching you, you can't escape me.

Hold your breath, close your eyes, 'cause I'm finding another way out.



To watch you die, to make you bleed.

I'll take my time 'till you can' see.

To hear you scream, to see you cry,

soon I'll be alone without you.



I'll set the record straight tonight,

scream this from the other side.

Can you not just see through their lies.

I need to make a stand, tell him to stop those lies,

drink a potion to bring me back to life.



This is my suicide, This is my last goodbye.



With your hands behind your head, I'll do whatever I please.

Your Tears Won't even reach the floor, your life won't even reach the door.



Run for your life, under these stars watching you, you can't escape me.

Hold your breath, close your eyes, 'cause I'm finding another way out.



To watch you die, to make you bleed.

I'll take my time 'till you can' see.

To hear you scream, to see you cry,

soon I'll be alone without you.



With your hands behind your head,

I'll do whatever I please,

Your tears won't reach me.

With your hands behind your head,

I'll do whatever I please, whatever I please.



To watch you die, to make you bleed.

I'll take my time 'till you can' see.

To hear you scream, to see you cry,

soon I'll be alone without you.

THE SNAKE THE CROSS THE CROWN LYRICS - Hot Anger, Soon Cold

THE SNAKE THE CROSS THE CROWN LYRICS



"Hot Anger, Soon Cold"






We all know,

That the tension,

Is getting higher,

Well it's getting harder,

For us to get along.

And the problems we're having with each other,

Are ones we shouldn't have at all.



Cause we're letting get to us,

What we should be,

Letting go,

But it's setting in,

And it's harder,

To know.



What we want from this life,

Cause we're in it now,

And we can't get out.

And no matter how we feel,

We're committed to this life.



Cause we're letting get to us,

What we should be,

Letting go,

But it's setting in,

And it's harder,

To know.



I choose to let it go cause I know,

That we can work this out,

If honest friends take solid oaths,

And keep their word with sincere faith,

Then take my trust and count on it

Then take my trust and count on it.



Cause we're letting get to us,

What we should be,

Letting go.

THE TOSSERS LYRICS - I've Pursued Nothing

THE TOSSERS LYRICS



"I've Pursued Nothing"






It's three o'clock at the end of the day.

It's three o'clock in the morning gray.

I'm alone and I'm very, very worried.



All the bottles of wine have ravaged my mind.

Another day's gone by and I'm worried.



And the night, and the night, it is bitter and short.

For I know that a new day is coming.

Another day, another day, all alone and blue.

But for you I've pursued nothing.



I dropped out of school to dwell on a dream,

And now all that guilt is engulfing me.



I can't concentrate, I'm failing.

Oh, were can she be?

I'm alone and I'm very, very worried.



I know that I've always felt this way.

God, I know that it's always been this way.

Since I was young, I've always felt this way.

Well, do I fuck myself for the consistency?



I know that I have stumbled, and I know I've not been sharp.

And when I'm leaving this world behind,

I won't bring another soul here to fall flat on their face,

or leave this world unkind.

BRAZIL LYRICS - It Keeps The Machine Running

BRAZIL LYRICS



"It Keeps The Machine Running"






we are born

from one institution

into another

falling asleep

listening to the poetry

of steel



and we are chained

arm to arm

pulling each other down



the irony of quitting time

can you really stop?

inhale deeply because it’s your last breath

so enjoy what’s left



and we are chained

arm to arm

pulling each other



seasons change

from green to red

seasons change

inside my head

VENDETTA RED LYRICS - Run

VENDETTA RED LYRICS



"Run"






Shoot to kill, she wrapped her legs around my face.

Stripped down when she went down and that's all.

And where is art?

It's in the tears of the retarded children,

when you tell them there's no God.



You'll fall asleep forever,

but never close your eyes.

'Cause every day you're wishing

you could hold her through the night.

She'd have you sing the chorus

then watch the years go by

but I don't mind.



The meat talks back, divorce my head off of my neck

to dine on hot organs, and that's all.

And where is love?

It's on the blade of this old knife,

your lover took your life and took off.



"Lay them on the lawn like dead virgins.

Goddess of the grove."

NAKATOMI PLAZA LYRICS - I Wish Everyone Was As Smart as Alison

NAKATOMI PLAZA LYRICS



"I Wish Everyone Was As Smart as Alison"






So if we're up all night again, and we're talking about my friends, remind me to tell Jesse he was right. I don't think Brook would like to hear that the drawings in his wallet were not clear. Those watermelons are way too big for me. We're driving, I'm singing, "The world is really 20 miles away." And she says, without hesitation, "Why can't everyone be as smart as me?" So that night I'm on her couch, it's almost morning light again. Didn't this happen last Tuesday? I remember the Promise Ring. I'm never sleeping anymore, I'm always listening and talking to you. So what the hell, it's 5am again. So I'm guessing that I am sick all the time 'cause I'm scared to be alone. If I ride this out, and I do not say a word, then maybe we can still be friends.

Oh, the line at the welfare line is way outta line

All the folks in the street, in the cold, in the heat, it's a crime

Looking like a line or mourners stretching down the block and around the corer

Yes, the line at the welfare line is way outta line



Well they say cutting AFDC isn't too race

All those welfare moms getting fat on all that cash

Well, I heard a welfare mother's son say

"When I grow up, I'm gonna get me a gun

and I'm off to Sacramento in a flesh"



Now all the folks who used to call us "welfare bums"

Now are on that line mooching cigarettes and sniffing for crumbs

And as sure as the sky is blue sooner or later it's gonna be me or you

Cause what comes around is familiar when it comes



Now the poorest folks I know, just to eat

Have to short the landlord and not pay the heat

For the crime or being poor

They get a three-day notice and a sheriff at the door

Yeah, the line at the welfare line is way outta line



Oh, the line at the welfare line is way outta line

For a meal or a taste, or a bite, it's a waste of time

For the want of cash to borrow, they'll tell you

"Sorry boy, come back tomorrow,"

In a game designed to drive you out of your mind!



Oh, the line at the welfare line is way outta line

All the folks in the street, in the cold, in the heat, it's a crime

Looking like a like of mourners

Stretching down the block and around the corner

Yes, the line at the welfare line

The line, like the rate of crime

The line, like a creeping vine

Oh, the line at the welfare line is way outta line!

7 SECONDS LYRICS - This Is Temporary

7 SECONDS LYRICS



"This Is Temporary"






The troubles have fallen around me

and nobody seems to respond

what's will I take from this situation?

what will work when my goals are all gone?



[Chorus]

I believe this is temporary

it wont last forever, it's alright

I have faced bigger challenges and bigger set backs in my life



A knee jerk reaction is waiting

for any who dare to oppose

talk of war, always praised, conversations

quickly turn closets friends into foes

THE PINKERTON THUGS LYRICS - The Times

THE PINKERTON THUGS LYRICS



"The Times"






Well some kid got the lock down

'Cause he got flip with an officer

No you don't do that in this town

Unless you can bail yourself out

Some kids got the kick down

Fightin' straights from Fenway Park

But who was in the right now

And who still feels the scars?



Whoah, pick yourself up now, lets go



Now when we come to your town

Ain't no one gonna be a thug

But we're gonna have a lot of words now

So ya tough hoods listen up

I seen ya drinkin' down the river

I seen ya fightin' at the shows

I seen em crawl from every niche around

And then I've seen em go



These are the times

And I don't care how it happens

Things just gotta change



Are you in it for a lifetime

Are you giving back what you take

Is what I'm saying sinking in

Or is it just another wasted day

Theres one thing that they got that we ain't got

Its the long arm of the law

When the mace came out I clutched the ground

Then they kicked me up some more



Pick it up punk

THE BLOOD BROTHERS LYRICS - Cecilia And The Silhouette Saloon

THE BLOOD BROTHERS LYRICS



"Cecilia And The Silhouette Saloon"






murder = white out.

cancer = birth blouse.

mirror = perfect glass spouse.

oil = sex paint.

shower = water saint.

Death decodes the howls from our hands.

skull = noise nest.

TV = fuck test.

mirror = siamese gun kiss.

sugar = birth bait.

murder = loves fate.

death distills the camouflage from our dance.

death inverts the red from romance.

Death x-rays the angels of chance.

death; the anti mirror of infants.

Like a picture hiding beneath the digital Avalanche.

When cecilia's grave cracked like a dirt cacoon,

she pulled up a stool at the silhouette saloon.

The player piano mumbling crippled jigs,

black widows knitting victimless wigs.

When cecilia's throat slit like a second set of lips

she drooled braille bibles onto the brothel bed spread,

like an egg whose yoke defies child bearing hips.

Like a ghost who fears all of the deceased and dead.

(time eats the flesh and spits out the shadow like a useless wishbone.)

But that locket spinning around her neck,

whose hearth heats a dead valentine,

you know the phantom trail leads way to a muted grave.

Where is his voice now?

A dead tone in the flutter of drunken wings,

Where is his blushed cheek now,

A face unraveled in shadow, veiled in blind laughter.

Where are those sex ripened lips,

his kiss print still warm on several necks.

Where is love now?

AREA-7 LYRICS - Can't Be Happy

AREA-7 LYRICS



"Can't Be Happy"






Turn off the tv, put the paper away,

I can't take it anymore today,

Turn off the radio, and close the door

I know I can't be happy anymore

(because) the world... is getting harder every day...

and none of us will get a say....

but soon enough we're gonna pay...

We'll Pay One Day!



Why can't the world be more emotional,

'Cos economics isn't rational,

And everybody's out for number one

But when they stop you know they've come undone



Now I now exactly what's in store,

Greed and selfishness I can't ignore,

Every life becomes a closing door

And so I can't be happy anymore

I can't ignore what I once used to

Turn away from what we all go through

Not happening far away it's at my door

And now I can't be happy anymore

FILMMAKER LYRICS - Goodnight Suicide

FILMMAKER LYRICS



"Goodnight Suicide"






So this is it.

This will be the last song.

That I write.

I've finally run out of things to say.

And rewrote these sad songs.

About 400 different ways.

Sleep away the afternoon.

Dream of cities on the sea.

You can go.

Just take me with you.

Say goodnight, suicide.

I'll see you in the morning.

If I get up on time.

Say goodnight, suicide.

I'll see you in the morning.

A little after nine.

4 am.

Awake again.

Feeling unkempt and underslept.

It's hard to get a good night's rest.

This pile of bones beneath my bed.

All the skeletons that wouldn't fit in my closet.

Sleep away the afternoon.

Dream of cities on the sea.

You can go.

Just take me with you.

Say goodnight, suicide.

I'll see you in the morning.

If I get up on time.

Say goodnight, suicide.

I'll see you in the morning.

If I get up on time.

Say goodnight, suicide.

I'll see you in the morning.

If I get up on time.

Say goodnight, suicide.

I'll see you in the morning.

If I get up on time.

So one last time, Goodnight.

So one last time, Goodnight.

I'll say goodnight. (i'll see you in the morning.)

I'll say goodnight. (i'll see you in the morning.)
