THE NEW AMSTERDAMS LYRICS - From California

THE NEW AMSTERDAMS LYRICS

"From California"

Uncommon amount of the time at home, hardly a word on the telephone. Finally find the time to get to know you. Still mapping it out like a master plan, something to do with my idle hands. Write you a letter addressed from California. It's vivid and strong in my memory, an absence that smacks of abandoning. It let to the battle that ultimately destroyed us. I'm nothing if I don't know your mistakes, the pill is as bitter as I can take. It twists like a blade when I leave for California. I hope that you know this is killing me, it's all in the name of the family. We only can play the cards the dealer dealt us. The end of the cycle is closing in, with you I see new hope begin again. There suddenly seems to be promise in California. As heavy as all this is weighing me, believe in the words I am promising. I'm still here for her. The distance is only an obstacle, hardly a match for a miracle. I'm finally ready to go to California.

GOLDFINGER LYRICS - Faith

GOLDFINGER LYRICS

"Faith"

I ask myself

Where has passion gone? Have I grown up?

Am I too old?

I don't feel like I did

I need to feel, there's nothing else

Nothing left

But your taste in my mind

Where have I gone?

Where have I gone?



And you come along to sing this song

Restore my faith like nothing's wrong

You come along to sing this song

Restore my faith like nothing's wrong



But I

Sing a new song



I feel sick

I need more than this

Where have I gone?

Where have I gone? What shuts me down, tears me apart?

I don't know

What I am

Where's the man, the man with dreams? One man alone

I haven't changed a thing



And you come along to sing this song

Restore my faith like nothing's wrong

You come along to sing this song

Restore my faith like nothing's wrong

And you come along to sing this song

Restore my faith like nothing's wrong

You come along to sing this song

Restore my faith like nothing's wrong



But I

Sing a new song

THE REUNION SHOW LYRICS - Star Training

THE REUNION SHOW LYRICS

"Star Training"

she wants to be in magazines and be beautiful for everyone to see

it's raining in her room again

so she turns off the TV

she wants to be on movie screens

so she practices her lines

(and her kisses)

she's sleeping in a broken car

that she borrowed from her best friend

she knows one day she'll make me proud

and all the world will look at her now

she smiles politely as she steps out of her dreams and wakes up

her eyes are open

the dream is over

the sky is falling

it's broken, it's broken

training to be a star, you know that you are...

he writes books of poetry

though he hasn't read any since he read e. e.

drinking himself to sleep

pretending that he's boring

(not to sound deep)

he knows one day he'll write his book

and all the world will have a look

he smiles politely as he steps out of his dream and wakes up

she wants to be in magazine

he wants to act on movie screens

he sees those girls

but they look the other way

Training to be a star.

you know that you are.

THE MIDNIGHT LIFE LYRICS - Dangerous Maneuvers

THE MIDNIGHT LIFE LYRICS

"Dangerous Maneuvers"

Involve yourself in this moment

We've got ourselves in the movement

Evolve your sound with our music

We've got you trapped in this moment



Just walk a little slower dear

Put one foot in front of the other

And listen just a little closer

To the sounds that we enact

A promise as sure as the sun

You've already had your little run

Look up and squint those eyes

We've already torched the skies



React react

(Its a dangerous maneuver)

Pick up the slack that you left

Where's your motive?

(To stick to the same rhyme scheme)

Reenact reenact.

(I will not be caught dead)

The sounds that we attract

The sounds that we have tracked



Living in this shadow

You call creativity

the sun has set

This is our time



We have got

To keep on

Moving straight

Through these walls



If music is your weapon of choice

Then your gun is jammed

So try to fire away

You`re writing the same cliche lines

And no one understands



React react

(Its a dangerous maneuver)

Pick up the slack that you left

Where's your motive?

(To stick to the same rhyme scheme)

Reenact reenact.

(I will not be caught dead)

The sounds that we attract

The sounds that we have tracked



Reenact

the sounds

of the past

Just move forward



Lets turn a

New leaf

In this book

We call music

history

PENNYWISE LYRICS - Gone

PENNYWISE LYRICS

"Gone"

I'm falling down, I'm staggering

I'm here and then I'm gone

And if you try to find me

I'm nowhere to be found

I'm in somebody's shadow

In someone else's dream

I'm in your girlfriend's mind

As funny as it seems

I'm here and then I'm gone

Sometimes I pass right through you

When you're down at memory lane

Sometimes it's only me in there

That causes you great pain

When you gonna realize

When you gonna face

All you and me went through was

A pleasant little phase

I'm gonna find you

When you least expect me to

You'll never find me

Unless I want to be

THIS TIME NEXT YEAR LYRICS - Calling In Dead

THIS TIME NEXT YEAR LYRICS

"Calling In Dead"

I want to sleep for days

When my heart's sick

She's calling and calling

She's pouring salt in my wounds

You'll be alone someday

That's a promise

It's shameful to know

Little girls grow up to be you

Never mind your best intentions

I've come to find these situations

Never cease to rest,

They always get the best of me

You know that it's true

Fair weather, go figure

Calling it quits had its run

So I'm calling in dead

Fair weather, go figure

Some things are better unsaid

So I'm calling in dead

I want to sleep for days

When my heart's sick

She's calling, she's calling

She's pouring salt in my wounds

Never mind your best intentions

I've come to find these situations

Never cease to rest

They always get the best of me

You know that it's true

So pray to God it's all in your head

That I never told a lie or never will again

I'm not your friend, in fact

Why don't you hang yourself

You're a blatant contradiction

To your heart felt confessions

MEG & DIA LYRICS - Roses

MEG & DIA LYRICS

"Roses"

Turn around there's those eyes again.

Turn around fake indifference and I.

Watch their cold, dark silhouettes disappear.

A hundred bodies fill this room.

And all their faces overdone.

Pain is foreign, foreign to us.

I don't even know you.

You won't even know I'm gone.

Was it something I did wrong?

Roses, roses cold.

Roses, roses sold out.

Turn around reds and whites again.

I'd sell my kicks for one more low tar.

Fevers hand in hand with shoelace bracelets.

Why are some girls so naive?

He didn't unbutton your blouse to see.

A better view of your heart.

Oh yeah, can't blame you for trying.

Sing it soft.

Make it slow.

Apples parachute the boys back down.

Fill it up.

Overflow.

A new, improved modern way to feel.

I don't even know you.

You won't even know I'm gone.

Was it something I did wrong?
