THE OFFSPRING LYRICS - Lightning Rod

THE OFFSPRING LYRICS

"Lightning Rod"

I am waiting

On a mountaintop

For the moment that the sky will strike

My apologies

Are forever lost

Soon to ashes in a flash of light



Miles from away from me

Hope is fading soon

Gone forever it's a waste of time

My intentions

Like a sweeter room

Only bring to me a fading light



Locked up forever inside

I look to the stars and ask why

If they could just teach my dark heart to feel

All I've saved - why

Is thrown away



I am waning

Like a single bloom

Lost forever in the storm of life

My intentions

Like a sweeter room

Only bring to me a fading light



Locked up forever inside

I look to the stars and ask why

If they could just show these wounds how to heal

Here I am - oh why

My last stand - oh why

And I know For all the rising and falling there's nothing to show



Throw me down



It's been raining

And now I will pay

Woe is come to me



I am the lightning rod



I am waiting

On a mountaintop

Oh above me

He will strike me!



Locked up forever inside

I look to the stars and ask why

If they could just teach my dark heart to feel

All I am - oh why

My last stand - oh why

And I know

For all the rising and falling there's nothing to show

NO MOTIV LYRICS - So What

NO MOTIV LYRICS

"So What"

Well I just thought about you

And all the things you do

How you're a friend of mine and got stabbed in the back

Taking what belongs to you

Now you're less talkative when I'm around

And something is not right

The things you said before

When you go out the door

Don't forget who your friends are

so now you're either with me or against me

and now you're really showing yourself

well how am I supposed to think good ofyou

when all you do is raise all this hell?

Right about now you can do your best

(like all the rest)

Right now you're rolling your eyes

And you're talking some shit

To all the friends that you're with

Well I have no more to say

Except stay away

And just leave me along because you don't understand

One fucking thing about friends

so now you're either with me or against me

and now you're really showing yourself

well how am I supposed to think good of you

when al you do is raise all this hell?

So what now?

THE WORD ALIVE LYRICS - Epiphany

THE WORD ALIVE LYRICS

"Epiphany"

Go!

You think I'm weak?

It's called honesty.

Believe me, here's your epiphany.

Just let go.

Your inner thoughts betray you.

I need to just let go.

It'll wear me down.

Unless I learn to finally pretend.

But I know that won't happen.



Oh it feeds and feeds.

It breaks down everything.

Destroys the life that I've been seeking.

You try to force your way in so you fight and fight you're battling.

I believe, nothing is what it seems.



There's something you don't know, a place you'll never go.

There's something you don't know, you need to let go.

There's something you don't know, a place you'll never go.

There's something you don't know, you need to let go.



You run from everything you can't control.

Let go of control.

It will wear me down.

Unless I learn to finally pretend, but I know that won't happen.



Oh it feeds and feeds.

It breaks down everything.

Destroys the life that I've been seeking.

You try to force your way in so you fight and fight you're battling.

I believe, nothing is what it seems.



Oh it feeds and feeds.

It breaks down everything.

Destroys the life that I've been seeking.



Oh it feeds and feeds.

It breaks down everything.

Destroys the life that I've been seeking.

Oh it feeds and feeds.

It breaks down everything.

Destroys the life that I've been seeking.

MEG & DIA LYRICS - Santa Barbara

MEG & DIA LYRICS

"Santa Barbara"

Pray for them

I often loose track

So I took a drag

of my first cigarrette

and I found my head

Roll down the dumps

of twenty seventh street



I drew a sketch

with lipstick and sidewalk

of Newports edge

Legoblock cliffs

and an ocean that doesn't

deserve the sounds of silence

I'd swear on a dead artists grave



I found a spot

where the drunk never got to

And it rocks me gently silent, silent

If I never surface

then it doesn't matter

Hold my breath

It's silent, silent, now



Diligent

Escape by the water

Not sick of it

It only gets harder

That's no excuse

to block all the cliches and

reason for kicks



He strokes her hair

both sitting on sand

and her shoulders bare

nothing to demand of them

laying back on a lonely stone wall

and passersby look passed it all



I found a spot

where the drunk never got to

And it rocks me gently silent, silent

If I never surface

then it doesn't matter

Hold my breath

It's silent, silent



[guitar solo]



I found a spot

where the drunk never got to

It rocks me gently silent, silent

If I never surface

then it doesn't matter

Hold my breath

It's silent, silent, now

THURSDAY LYRICS - Panic On The Streets Of Health Care City

THURSDAY LYRICS

"Panic On The Streets Of Health Care City"

The I. V. drips, the days drag on,

The anesthetics now wearing off

Adjust the light switch in the hall.

This is the end.

These are the last days.

These are the last days.



Now take our hands in a roll of red tape,

Genetic information strands are tighter than trip wires.

And we awake in the light of other lives,

This can't be happening, these sirens are for me, yeah.



So what happened to the hospital,

To cut the cost of collected health?

Dying in the shadow of the hospital

We got the city in our blood and it's making us sick.

But you stay alive until their blood fills up your wallet,

Blazing up the sky.



These are the last days

These are the last days.

Where we all wake.

Where we all wake.



The I. V. drips, the days drag on,

The anesthetics now wearing off.

Adjust the light switch in the hall,

Someone has left it on.

And maybe the x-ray screen keeps it from getting dark.

The bulb burns out when it gets too hot.

Are we just a blink in the eyes of a pulse machine?

It's lightning divorcing the storm

Try to shut it off, codeine catch, the windows latched and

The clock keeps circling the room tick, tock.



We lost control.

(White out white out)

In white outs followed magnetic fields to the fire.

(White out white out)

Out of control.

We fight currents in the water, we can't let go to shore.

We lost control.

THE GHOST OF A THOUSAND LYRICS - Nobody Likes A Hero

THE GHOST OF A THOUSAND LYRICS

"Nobody Likes A Hero"

It's just a common cold, brought on by a lack of trust, it's just a small stone hanging from an iron cross, it's just a black mark picked up by a fucking nurse, we walk away, walk away like it's not our fault. Can't see, mouth fills up with tar, black tar, if only you could see. I can't see it, my mouth fills up it's just that we're dazzled in the homes of the magistrates. Tongue, whip, gold, no choice, we're dazzled in the homes of the magistrates. Can't see it, my mouth fills up with tar, black tar, if only you could see, we're dazzled in the homes of the magistrates, we're dazzled in the homes of the magistrates, we're dazzled by the magistrates.
