.BAXTER. LYRICS - I've Watched You

.BAXTER. LYRICS



"I've Watched You"






Now that I have made it out to be your fault

I've choked in bitter words for far too long.

Try to resist this, I try to not look back.

Our eyes have never met, our words unsaid.

And I kick myself to sleep.

I have watched you, did you know?

I wish I had a reason to hate your guts

because then I would be right and you'd be wrong.

I can't remember a time when I was free

of these thoughts that entangle me.

This is the best time I have ever known thus far.

AWAY FROM HERE LYRICS - Anatomy Of A Broken Heart

AWAY FROM HERE LYRICS



"Anatomy Of A Broken Heart"






...Perfectly failing, sleep is overrated

And as words march across an empty screen

I scream, I'm scared, that it is gone, tonight

Never say those words

We shared, I'm scared, that it's gone, tonight

Leave me hanging, three words to save the day

I'll cling to those words

If you ever utter them again

Over and over maegan

Winters set in, and you're chilled to the bones

Anti freeze to thaw out your heart

or July, these skies are, like my open eyes

With no disguise

Perfectly failing, to sleep is overrated (morning after the worlds collide)

And as words march across an empty screen

I scream



The morning after...the worlds collide

Will you be standing on the brink?

The brink of starvation of an empty heart

Cluttered with the remains of a useless boy

You wont wake up from this again (from this again)

Until the sun rears its head (you always said "depression falls with the snow")

And when you said that you loved me (this is what you wanted)

Did it ever occur that was a blatant lie (lies are color blind, there is no white)



So the pens run out, all that's left white markers

Broken lead, torn paper maybe this knife is sharper

Introduce a new way

A new way to suffer

Please welcome now

Hi, my name's your worst nightmare

First step to recover is to make sure it's over

Words like rope around my neck

Ensure this end is somber (GOODBYE!)

Second step is distance well that's already covered

And the last step is best

Kill this pain with another drink for better times

Drink for suicide

Notes in the trash

Drink for what we have past and I know (I know)

(You always said you would not run away, but you're gone today)

that's its gone (that its gone)

Say goodnight to old times (GOODBYE!)...

FRANK TURNER LYRICS - Sunday Nights

FRANK TURNER LYRICS



"Sunday Nights"






Sunday nights are slow surrender.

It never lasts and we never learn.

We can still make this one to remember.

It’s Sunday night and we’ve time to burn.

Tomorrow morning can wait its turn.

So charge your glasses and raise a toast to the memory gained,

to the sleep that we lost.

Another weekend run to ground,

another passing coat of red painted across our town.

Work is shallow, cuts are deep, but who would waste two days respite?

You can’t catch up on sleep.

So here we are, last chance saloon,

the ticking clock and a slow defeat, it’ll all be over soon.

Once more friends unto the breach, bleary-eyed,

the stuff of dreams always slips out of reach.

Defiance dressed in crumpled clothes,

protest played out with a headache, starting late and going slow.

So though we know we have to be here,

we have tasted freer air, so we don’t have to care.

All our days will fade away in hazy nights and clear mistakes.

So here’s to us and needs that must.

Let’s raise a toast for one last boast

because it’s Sunday night and we’ve time to burn.

Tomorrow morning can wait its turn.

DEATH IS NOT GLAMOROUS LYRICS - Compassion

DEATH IS NOT GLAMOROUS LYRICS



"Compassion"






This isn't culture, it's an industry,

living creatures, barely alive, chaines up in factories.

And you can tell yourself that you do enough to warrant a slip from time to time,

but your conscience knows better and you know it tastes wrong, so open your eyes.

Born into this mess, and they painted us a prettier picture,

we swallow everything we're fed, the food, the lies and the fiction.

But we don't have to live by history books, we can write and illustrate our own.

Just realize that every meal is a choice, and you only reap what you have shown.

And yet they call it culture, millions slaughtered by the day.

And it's easy to just not care when you're 1000 miles away.

But think twice next time it's on your plate;

environmental repercussions, a higher taste.

Born and raised in a fucking cage,

how can we keep making this mistake?

So many reasons, the list is so long.

All this cruelty in our lives, it just feels wrong.

There's a better way, so much more than just fashion.

A better diet for a more caring world, one word...Compassion.



You say you care, I say you're scared....Prove me wrong!

NEVER HIT AGAIN LYRICS - Alone In A Hallway With Only A Shirt On

NEVER HIT AGAIN LYRICS



"Alone In A Hallway With Only A Shirt On"






Sometimes life seems bigger than it is

It's up to you to rearrange your views

And we all know something better exists

You just don't see it from the blues

(But you know)



There's no use in leaving all alone

I need you, I need you

Destination's unknown

I need you, I need you



Everyone's got their own problems to deal with

And most of them find a way

Answers aren't given up like gifts

You've got to work them away

(But you know)



There's no use in leaving all alone

I need you, I need you

Destination's unknown

I need you, I need you



All this hate and despair blinding me

So many times that I've been feeling through my veins

But there's no devil that is too strong to be slayed

It's about time that we start breaking our chains



So when you'll cross the final exit on your road

Will you take it?

Or will you just feel stupid to have slowed

I know for sure that there's a sunnier exit



So pump the gas and head on towards some better skies

Your life means so much more

Look straight ahead there is a brighter sun that rises

It's yours, yours to explore



Answers aren't given up like gifts

You've got to work them away

(But you know)



There's no use in leaving all alone

I need you, I need you

The destination's unknown

I need you, I need you



I need you [2x]

ALLI WITH AN I LYRICS - Up North

ALLI WITH AN I LYRICS



"Up North"






What are you doing while I'm gone? It's colder in July, colder than it has ever been this time of year. Do you feel the cold breeze? Driving, hoping, wishing. Driving, hoping, wishing. Driving. What are you doing? Where are you going? Your lost and I am gone. These feelings still showing, but I'm not going anywhere. Tonight I'll sit alone and wonder if your alright and how you are getting home. The sound of your voice it gives me comfort and I don't have to wonder any fucking more. Driving, hoping, wishing. Driving, hoping, wishing. Driving. What are you doing? Where are you going? Your lost and I am gone. These feelings still showing, but I'm not going anywhere. Up north. Up north. When the words are all wrong and those thoughts never even crossed your mind. Up north. Up north. This time is the last time that you'll hear the words "I'll be fine." Up north. Up north for nothing. (Driving, hoping, wishing for nothing).

ELEVEN MINUTES AWAY LYRICS - Breakup Anxiety

ELEVEN MINUTES AWAY LYRICS



"Breakup Anxiety"






now i know, i was wrong, you were right, all along. all those times, i spent with you, were so good, now what to do? i was standing on the sidewalk, as i was watching you drive away. i wanted to yell "stop", and tell you the things that i wanted to say. i can't believe that after all this time, it just ended like this, i'll never forget all those times, that you'd hold me and give me a kiss. and i guess that we won't be talking now for a while, cause i know, that when i look at you, i will always miss your smile. you'll come down on yourself, i'll come down on myself, regretting things we said and did, i know that it'll be good, but we need time to forgive. so now it's over, i never pictured this as the end. you tell me that you don't hate me, and you only want to be friends. i'm sorry if i can't do this, it seems that i've been hurt too much. by girls who tell me they love me, but always seem out of touch.
