UNSUNG ZEROS LYRICS - Broadcast

UNSUNG ZEROS LYRICS



"Broadcast"






She flips on the light

And looks in the mirror

She cries to herself

Its becoming much clearer

That he's not where he says

When he's not hanging with her

Flips off the light

And then turns with a shiver



And when he comes home

His embrace is so cold

It's like being caught in a rough strangle hold

Now her resolve's gaining strength

To tell him so long

But for now she'll just keep hanging on



[Bridge]

'Cause the little things remind her

Of the good times they have had

Whenever she thinks of those things

It's hard to think that he's so bad



[Chorus]

It seems no matter where she goes

she can hear their song on the radio (radio)

And when she does she smiles to it

But no matter how hard she tries

she can't turn it off or let it die (let it die)

Even though she knows he's driving her to ruin



She's falling in love with a new boy and his smile

But she can't admit to herself her heart's run wild

Cause storybook dreams of a fairy tale life

Are holding her back to keep fighting this lost fight



Where she still holds on to the hope he might change

but one hundred percent of the time he's the same

And now her heart has been smashed

Her will has been broke

But she clings to the end of that rope



[Bridge]

'Cause the little things remind her

Of the good times they have had

Whenever she thinks of those things

It's hard to think that he's so bad



[Chorus x2]

It seems no matter where she goes

she can hear their song on the radio (radio)

And when she does she smiles to it

But no matter how hard she tries

she can't turn it off or let it die (let it die)

Even though she knows he's driving her to ruin

ROOKIE OF THE YEAR LYRICS - Don't Tear Me Apart

ROOKIE OF THE YEAR LYRICS



"Don't Tear Me Apart"






Will you roll with me tonight?

See the city lights

Talk about angels

Talk about you and me



So this is what I know

And it's San Fransisco gold

And all this shows

As we watch the street lights glow



And we wait around for love

And we wait till we can't wait no more

Don't tear me apart



You pressure me to speak

As we walk on down these vacant streets

Are you feeling alright?

Are you feeling alright?

Yeah, I'm feeling alright



And this is where we go (What's this you're planning?)

Is there something I should know (I hope you're understanding me)

If I had more time (had more time)

For you to decide (for you to decide)

I'd probably be more in your life

Hands by your side



We wait around for love

And we wait till can't wait no more

Not gonna fight it, believe it

Have to find it and receive it

Don't tear me apart

Don't tear me apart



Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh (don't tear me apart)

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh



And you wait around for love

And we wait till we can't wait no more

Not gonna fight it, believe it

Have to find it and receive it

Please, just don't tear me apart.

ELEVEN FIFTY SEVEN LYRICS - For The Kids

ELEVEN FIFTY SEVEN LYRICS



"For The Kids"






It's crazy how you grow,

I helped you tie your shoes,

And I've learned to love something so much,

So beautiful.



If there is one thing I can't fail that's raising you,

You can't make the same mistakes that I did,

I never meant for it to be this way,

You're the hope I hold the future,

You're the world to me my son,

You're the world to me my son.



I sit and watch you where you sleep,

You're the peace in all this chaos,

I only hope to provide the shelter,

To calm the storm that follows growing up,

The battles that I fought myself,

Son I swear to you I'll be, better than my father was to me.



If there is one thing I can't fail that's raising you,

You can't make the same mistakes that I did,

I never meant for it to be this way,

You're the hope I hold the future,

You're the world to me my son,

You're the world to me my son.



It breaks my heart to see you sad,

I'll kiss the tears away you have,

Be your comfort, be your best friend,

And when the world comes crashing down,

I'll hold your hand and say the words you need to hear.

You're the best thing that i've done,

I'm so proud of you my son.

CITIZEN FISH LYRICS - Refugees Go West

CITIZEN FISH LYRICS



"Refugees Go West"






It's all-channel mindset in Western World style, between TV and work we all roam. While mad politicians cause wars and divisions in places a long way from home. Political, power-crazy, Generals on hills are bombing the people they know and making demands, claming rights over land, until their ain't nowhere safe left to go. "This is religion and so is this too, and one of them, therefore, is wrong." It is the same old excuse to support fascist views: "You may live here, but you don't belong." Family gathered to see what was left on the borders of what was once home. The country next door said, "You're welcome, I'm sure, but the law says you'll soon have to go." The phrase "ethnic cleansing" is dressing in words: racist, oppression, and death. When the last refugees have come out of the east, how far will they have to go west? The refugee's story gets lift in the cold as we turn off the TV and go. Easy to ignore until it is at your front door, then it is time to "stay" and not "go."

PAINT IT BLACK LYRICS - Bliss

PAINT IT BLACK LYRICS



"Bliss"






Underneath our feet; broken glass and concrete.

These kids don't walk alone; they own these city streets.

Of course they know that freedom sometimes stings.

Halogen halos, two wheels for wings.



Cranes loom like gallows overhead,

and the setting sun paints the sky blood red.



But outside it's exactly how I want it to be.

We're finally free.



The squeal of brakes and the last strains

of "That's How I Escaped My Certain Fate."

These are the sounds that keep our mothers up late.

THIS ROMANTIC TRAGEDY LYRICS



"Sound The Horns, The Spartans Are Coming"






We'll proceed with a look of the major trap

And hold the unwary traveler.

How his next move we see right through

Making the same one over.



He still makes the wrong mistakes,

Chosen wrong, he would say

That this is all wrong,

I am here to say

That you've all been cursed, my way.

This cant be undone, you are far too late,

Now we must go your way.



We'll proceed with a major trap

And hold the unwary traveler.

How his next move we see right through

Making it over.



Lets proceed with a major trap

And hold the unwary traveler.

How his next move we see right through

Making it over.

Next time we try to move

Make sure you're on it.



I've fallen, to my death,

I've fallen, to my death,



Make the same mistake again

Try and listen to what we've said

Its all wrong, and you're to blame

Its all wrong



I wont come back

I wont come back



We'll proceed with a look of the major trap

And hold the unwary traveler.

Cause this one's the last one

I've been waiting by the phone,

But you never called.

DEAR WHOEVER LYRICS - Breaking The Silence With Your Last Breath

DEAR WHOEVER LYRICS



"Breaking The Silence With Your Last Breath"






Was that you saying something.

I probably heard wrong.

You couldn’t have spoken more clearly

to help me along

but now it seems complicated,

lacked simplicity,

and it all will finally

will finally be over.



I would have believed in anything that you could have told me.

But I couldn’t even understand what was under your breath.



I would have believed anything you told me.

But you couldn’t speak at all.

All I heard was the sound of breathing,

your attempt to stall.



Silence means nothing,

silence be nothing,

silence is nothing,

so we could be alright.

Silence means nothing,

silence be nothing,

silence means nothing.



I would have believed in anything that you could have told me.

But I couldn’t even understand what was under your breath.



Take this for what you’re worth,

your day is over [x6]

And you never knew

in the ways that I

tried showing you, tried showing you.
