ARMOR FOR SLEEP LYRICS - Smile For The Camera

ARMOR FOR SLEEP LYRICS

"Smile For The Camera"

What if you find out

Everyone that's in your life

Is only being paid off

By a T. V. studio

And every conversation

Everyone's had with you

Was scripted by the writers

Living in Los Angeles



Smile for the camera



Put on a show for the viewers back home

Hide the truth so they'll never know

You hate what you got

Can't you love what you got?

So smile for the cameras that keep rolling



What if you find out

Everything that's in your life

Was only put in front of you

By people waiting for you to fall

And every time you trip up

It's all just a game

Nothing's really mattered

Nothing was as bad as you thought it was



Smile for the camera



Put on a show for the viewers back home

Hide the truth so they'll never know

You hate what you got

Can't you love what you got?

So smile for the cameras that keep rolling



The banquet the reception, it was all for you

Affectionate obsession from the masses grew

But little do they all know

You're just scared

You're just scared of when they'll write you off your own show



Put on a show for the viewers back home

Hide the truth so they'll never know

You hate what you got

Can't you love what you got?

So smile for the cameras that keep rolling



Love what you got, can't you love what you got?

TROUBLEMAKERS LYRICS - Jag Sålde Mina Tasker

TROUBLEMAKERS LYRICS

"Jag Sålde Mina Tasker"

Har slagit min skalle

i en vägg av cement

kvar av min löning

finns inte en cent



För jag har supit en vecka

får aldrig nog

nu ligger jag här och svettas

spyr galla och blod



Jag gav bort min klocka

för att få tiden att stå still

jag sålde mina tasker

nu äger jag ingenting



Inga pengar till hyran

stereon har jag sålt av

nu har jag levt på makaroner

i över fjorton dar



Men om igår kunde vara imorgon

och imorgon kunde vara idag

då skulle allt bli bättre

mycket bättre än bra

I AM GHOST LYRICS - Those We Leave Behind

I AM GHOST LYRICS

"Those We Leave Behind"

I've suffered more in this city, where ashes fall

a living tombstone that takes your mind

in bliss tattooed voices where we all fall down...

broke down the door to masks and stairs

dropped in the toxic ugly air, like gasoline it stings my face

and lungs, pulled back the red sheets from her eyes

i never said my last goodbye and it rips my heart out...

i'm half the man without you so take the missing pieces from my heart!

hold me like you did when we were younger, your eyes speak to

me it's the truth, our haunting; the days of my surrender

i kissed you head and said goodnight, i raised the dead and said goodbye

hid all the knives that killed the sun, cut all the wires and now i'm done

and picked apart the soul, just leave the skin and bones

this one and only where time steals you, drink up and hold me down

i'm half the man without you so take the missing pieces from my heart...

hold me like you did when we were younger, your eyes speak to

me it's the truth. out haunting; the deays of my surrender

i kissed your head and said goodnight, i raised the

dead and said goodbye, goodnight... goodbye!

let go, let go of me... now!

hold me like you did when we were younger. your eyes speak to

me its the truth...

hold me like you did when we were younger. your eyes speak to

me its the truth. our haunting; the days of my surrender

i kissed your head and said goodnight, lets raise the dead and say

goodbye

SWINGIN' UTTERS LYRICS - Smokestack Dreams

SWINGIN' UTTERS LYRICS

"Smokestack Dreams"

The smokestack's blowing off my last few dreams and isn't that the way its always been? she pours into the sky and chokes the trees then disappears from view, like empty streams

And the second step from heaven disappeared and then I took to crying on my bed and the second step from madness disappeared on a rainy day in august every year

The denizen of sad and awful days has visited my home with all her grace she's taught me worlds of knowledge through disgrace she's given me a taste of the misplaced

And I've taken to revising my diaries, modifying the more adament entries and the second step from madness disappeared on a rainy day in august every year

What's missing is the scent of salted air and a song sung by your sweetheart, and you're there as a twilight breeze sifts slowly through her hair and the angels take a split of the devil's share

A FACE FOR RADIO LYRICS - It's Official, I'm Over It

A FACE FOR RADIO LYRICS

"It's Official, I'm Over It"

What this scene needs is a savior



All the money's in the melody, of course the ladies come for lyrics

If music was anything it used to be, there would still be meaning in it.

(sell your soul)

Stay true when waiting on the world to come to

Strong roots will unearth themselves to move you



Sell your soul as you sign the rest of your life away

Know your role and just do as they say(with no delay)

These times are so tough to be (tough to be) a starving artist

chasing a dream



Don't ever come to terms with settling, always agree to (settle things yourself)

Pen in hand paints the big picture of your new found wealth



Sell your soul as you sign the rest of your life away

Know your role and just do as they say(with no delay)

These times are so tough to be (tough to be) a starving artist

chasing a dream



Chasing a dream



Send us a savior



Sell your soul as you sign the rest of your life away

Know your role and just do as they say(with no delay)

These times are so tough to be (tough to be) a starving artist

chasing a dream



What this scene needs is a savior

BOY SETS FIRE LYRICS - Empire

BOY SETS FIRE LYRICS

"Empire"

Here I am with my empire, I’ll bring you to your knees

ebb and flow with my desire, cause its all that you’ve been taught to be



yeah I’m the bastard son of what’s been overcome, and again we plant the seed

so place your fork to mouth, eat, consume, be proud of what I let you see

cause we’ve made quite sure you can never leave



I speak you throw parades ignore the sense of rage welling up inside

Pay no mind to what we do cause we’ll sell it all to you in modern luxuries

And we’ve made quite sure you believe you’re free



From the cradle to the grave we try not to be saved from what we own

For next to nothing spent turn your dollars into cents

Fighting for the right to die alone

(just believe… believe you’re free) – cause you’re on your own

it doesn’t matter just be sure that this is our empire this is war

forgotten heroes chessboard roles to make you think you’re something more

but you’re on your own…

DENVER HARBOR LYRICS - Pop Manifesto

DENVER HARBOR LYRICS

"Pop Manifesto"

Just another day of washing out the taste

Counting up the times you let me down

I'm walking through this hell and talking to myself

And every day just wondering if you're missing me around



And every open door leads me nowhere I've not been before

Standing on the edge of sanity reaching out for you

There's no hope for me



Suffering from truth and dying for abuse

Against my better judgment I regress

I'd give you one more chance without a second glance

This might be the end of me but I will take that test



You diagnose my misery while empathy just fills your eyes

Another reason I am so far gone

I'm stuck here in the in between swimming in your sea of lies

And I know this pain it will go on and on

PIEBALD LYRICS - Sex Sells And (Unfortunately) I'm Buying

PIEBALD LYRICS

"Sex Sells And (Unfortunately) I'm Buying"

I don't mean this like it sounds.

I can't stand up and can't sit down.

I'm only half as fast as I was yesterday.

The tighter the shirt the better it is.

A carrot and stick type of thing.

I have already got my hands in the pig farm.



Cut the kid some slack.

Cut the kid some cake.

There was nothing to feel, nothing to hold - yeah.



Nasty habits rule this place.

And of course the walk of shame.

It's something that you may or may not understand.

All out at once clean and compact.

Flipping through the stations.

I heard some rapper once say there's a message in everything.



It's just like liquor stores, mailboxes and pay phones.

Whenever you need them they are impossible to find.

It's just like liquor stores, mailboxes and pay phones.

Whenever you need them they are impossible to find.



Cut the kid some slack.

Cut the kid some cake.

There was nothing to feel, nothing to hold - yeah.

RAISED FIST LYRICS - The Models On TV

RAISED FIST LYRICS

"The Models On TV"

Using money to convey power.

Using money to convey dominance.

We will restrict our intake of lies until we are completely innocent.

When media constructs the norms and values of a culture and you're following them blind and stupid.

Let them fill your head with more garbage.

Low self-esteem the perfect sellers dream let us all look like the models on TV when you believe that you're worth nothing.

It's for commercial functions to work.

By lowing your self-esteem you'll put more money in their purses.

SOMEHOW HOLLOW LYRICS - One Final Swan Song

SOMEHOW HOLLOW LYRICS

"One Final Swan Song"

sometimes when i push this pain out of my ribs it reminds me of your heart, should i tell him about the time i threw his card out of the car? but whats the point in grieving when i still have reasons to hate you? but who is by your side tonight? and maybe one day i will come to your window and steal all my songs back, steal all my songs back. it's somehow hollow these days, remembering the fun we had, the good times they're all gone. it's just a moment in time, now that moment's gone. the five seconds they pass me by so fast, but what's the point in grieving when i still have reasons to hate you? but who is by your side tonight? and maybe one day i will crawl through your window and steal all my songs back.

CHILDREN 18:3 LYRICS - Search Warrant

CHILDREN 18:3 LYRICS

"Search Warrant"

I thought I told you not to run down on the one way track

There's a man with a train and he's coming fast

We could ask him how to turn it around

He'll weep for your life and then run you down



Don't ask me why, It's hard to explain

But you'll only get wet if you play in the rain



I'm not trying to run from you

I just don't like the way we're pretending

If this already becomes untrue

I'm searching



And then they brought me to a mountain of the highest peaks

there's a heavenly view but it's hard to reach

It's an island high above the ground

I climbed halfway but I turned around



Don't ask me why, it's hard to explain

But you'll never get wet staying out of the rain



I'm not trying to run from you

I just don't like the way we're pretending

If this already becomes untrue

I'm searching

NOMEANSNO LYRICS - Canada Is Pissed

NOMEANSNO LYRICS

"Canada Is Pissed"

Well, we settled in and all lived hand to mouth

Pooled our guns and beat the boys down south

Felt so proud, we got our own country

We got it on sale from a bloody company



[Chorus]

Canada is Pissed

We'll fade and won't be missed

Our country got so poor

When the people are so rich



Well, we bribed the west and the north was in the bag

Can't see why we all don't love our flag

Varies immigrants and the native plea

To the anglos and the francos we're one big minority



[Chorus]



We're pissed, we're tanked, we're smashed on all the glut

We've chug-a-lugged ourselves into a rut

We got lots and sell it oh, so cheaply

Then buy it back and pay it through the teeth



[Chorus]

GUTTERMOUTH LYRICS - Camp Fire Girl #62

GUTTERMOUTH LYRICS

"Camp Fire Girl #62"

She's got the healing powers of medicinal marijuana

And she feeds herself the same ole crap she feeds to her iguana

And she won't go to the bar

God forbid that she drive a car

And of course she will protest the war

And even though she's an idiot



[Chorus:]

I get excited when I see her

You better pass me the saltpeter

Like a sailor on shore leave

Like a recent parolee

I want to date her but first bathe her

She always eating echinacea

On her feet are birkenstocks

I guess my head is filled with rocks



Most of her friends are never happy

That is unless they're bitchin'

She looks down upon my comrades like they're carcinogen

She doesn't know what she's fighting for

Like a modern day conquistador

And of course she will protest the war

And even though she's an idiot



[Chorus]



She doesn't know what she's fighting for

Like a modern day conquistador

And of course she will protest the war

And even though she's an idiot

Even though she's an idiot



[Chorus]



I guess my head is filled with rocks rocks rocks

THE SUICIDE MACHINES LYRICS - Insecurities

THE SUICIDE MACHINES LYRICS

"Insecurities"

Held back by walls of security, that

I just could never see, held people at arms length

devoid of human contact

Cannot express emotion

I try with all my strength

What is the matter with me?

It seems that no one even cares

I'm blinded by my innocence

will no one be there for me?

When I dont understand.

Covered in blankets of Imagination

Where I can talk to people without a

second thought

What if they're laughing at me

I know I'm not good enough

so I won't even try.....

God only knows what'll keep us from dying

because eveytime I look around I see Life as a big lie

Yeah everybody's saying "yeah I'm the one" yeah

"everybody came running to me"

But thats not how it works and it never did

you know I'm sorry it had to be this way

things got fucked up but thats okay....

...I'm sorry....

...I'm sorry....

MAD CADDIES LYRICS - Mum's The Word

MAD CADDIES LYRICS

"Mum's The Word"

well approximation of the situation tends to bend

when you have too much to drink

and you piss off your friends

you cant talk,

and you cant walk,

and you dont know you're name,

you find yourself attracted to a very ugly dame,



the booze just kills your conscience

and your dick is in your hand

and you dont know who the fuck is in your bed
