On My Own from The Used


See all those people on the ground,
Wasting time...
I try to hold it all inside,
Just for tonight,
On top of the world,
I'm sitting here wishing,
The things I've become,
But something is missing,
Maybe I...
What do I know.

And now it seems that I have found,
Nothing at all,
I wanna hear your voice out loud,
Slow it down, slow it down,
Without it all,
I'm choking on nothing,
It's clear in my head,
that I'm screaming for something,
Knowing nothing is better than knowing it all.

On my own
On my own
On my own
On my own

(On my own, YAH!!)
(On my own, YAH!!)

Without it all,
I'm choking on nothing,
It's clear in my head,
that I'm screaming for something,
Knowing nothing is better than knowing it all.

On my own
On my own
On my own
On my own
 
Pieces Mended from The Used


Being faced with what I'm faced with I feel
Like I can't rock
Like a rock hit my heart
Started to chain the day
And exploded into pieces

Marry me
Stay the same
Lie to me and try to say you never will

Marry me
Stay the same
Lie to me and try to tell me

I've got a feeling in my gut now fills me
With so much hope
Said "**** it" I'm fine
Dine and dashed
The pianist peddled into morning
Morning

(scream)

Marry me
Stay the same
Lie to me and try to say you never will

Marry me
Stay the same
Lie to me and try to say you NEVER
Morning, MORNING

Being faced with what I'm faced with I feel
Like I can't rock
Like a rock hit my heart
Started to chain the day
And exploded into pieces

Pieces, pieces, pieces, pieces, pieces, pieces, pieces

Being faced with what I'm faced with I feel
Like I can't rock
Like a rock hit my heart
Started to chain the day
And exploded into pieces
(This verse is played in the background wile pieces is repeated)
 
Failure By Design from Brand New

Watch you on the one's and two's
Through a window in a well lit room
Become a recluse
And I blame myself 'cause I make things hard
And you're just trying to help

And when I wake up you're the first to call
This is one more late night basement song
And I'm so sore
My voice has gone to hell
This is one more sleepless night because we

Don't believe in filler, baby
If I could, I'd sit this out

(This is over when I say it's over)
This is a lesson in procrastination
I kill myself because I'm so frustrated
And every single second that I put it off
Means another lonely night, I gotta race the clock

(And I ignore it and it ignores me too)
Let's say we go and crash your car?
And every time I leave you go and lock the door
And I walk myself pickin' at a chip on my shoulder
I'm another day late and one year older
It's failure by design

And we just want sleep
But this night is hell
I'm sick and sunk and I blame myself
'Cause I make things hard
And you were tryin' to help

I got no gas windin' out my gears
(No gas)
This is one more day on the verge of tears
And now my head hurts
(Head hurts)
And my health is a joke and now I gotta stop
Because the headphones broke

We don't believe in filler, baby
If I could I'd sit this out

(This is over when I say it's over)
This is a lesson in procrastination
I kill myself because I'm so frustrated
And every single second that I put it off
Means another lonely night, I gotta race the clock

(And I ignore it and it ignores me too)
Let's say we go and crash your car?
And every time I leave you go and lock the door
And I walk myself pickin' at a chip on my shoulder
I'm another day late and one year older
It's failure by design

I'm out of everything
No one sleeps till we get this ****
Out on the shelves
It's late, I'm faltering
This time, I got nothin' to say besides...

Do do do, do do do.
(Nothin' else matters today)
Do do do, do do do.
Do do do, do do do.
(Nothin' else matters tonight)
Do do do, do do do.

Do do do, do do do.
(Nothin' else matters today)
Do do do, do do do.
Do do do, do do do.
Nothing to say besides...

(This is over when I say it's over)
This is a lesson in procrastination
I kill myself because I'm so frustrated
And every single second that I put it off
Means another lonely night, I gotta race the clock

(And I ignore it and it ignores me too)
Let's say we go and crash your car?
And every time I leave you go and lock the door
And I walk myself pickin' at a chip on my shoulder
I'm another day late and one year older
I'm a failure by design
 
Here I am again
Talking to myself
Sitting at a red light
Both hands on the wheel
How am I supposed to feel?
So much running through my mind
First you wanna be free
Now you say you need me
Giving mixed signals and signs
It's so hard to let you in
Thinking you might slam the brakes again

Put the pedal down
Heading out of town
Gotta make a getaway
The traffic in my brain's
Driving me insane
This is more than I can take
You tell me that you love me first
Then throw your heart into reverse
I gotta get away

I can't keep coming back to you
Every time you're in the mood
To whisper something sweet in my ear
It's so hard to move on
Cause every time I think you're gone
You show up in my rearview mirror

Is this just a detour?
Cause I gotta be sure
That you really mean what you say
It's so hard to let you in
Thinking you might slam the brakes again

Put the pedal down
Heading out of town
Gotta make a getaway
The traffic in my brain's
Driving me insane
This is more than I can take
You tell me that you love me first
Then throw your heart into reverse
I gotta get away
To a place where I can be redefined
Where you're out of sight
And you're out of mind
But the truth is I can't even say goodbye

Here I am again
Talking to myself
Sitting at a red light
Both hands on the wheel
How am I supposed to feel?
So much running through my mind

Put the pedal down
Heading out of town
Gotta make a getaway (a getaway)
The traffic in my brain's
Driving me insane
This is more than I can take (I can take)
You tell me that you love me first
Then throw your heart into reverse
I gotta get away
 

GLINDA
(spoken) Elphaba - why couldn't you have stayed calm for
once, instead of flying off the handle!
(sung) I hope you're happy!
I hope you're happy now
I hope you're happy how you
Hurt your cause forever
I hope you think you're clever!

ELPHABA
I hope you're happy
I hope you're happy, too
I hope you're proud how you
Would grovel in submission
To feed your own ambition

BOTH
So though I can't imagine how
I hope you're happy right now

GLINDA
(spoken) Elphie, listen to me. Just say you're sorry:
(sung) You can still be with the Wizard
What you've worked and waited for
You can have all you ever wanted:

ELPHABA
(spoken) I know:
(sung) But I don't want it -
No - I can't want it
Anymore:

Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes: and leap!

It's time to try
Defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you can't pull me down!

GLINDA
Can't I make you understand?
You're having delusions of grandeur:

ELPHABA
I'm through accepting limits
''cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But till I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love
It comes at much too high a cost!
I'd sooner buy
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
And you can't pull me down:
(spoken) Glinda - come with me. Think of what we could
do: together.

(sung) Unlimited
Together we're unlimited
Together we'll be the greatest team
There's ever been
Glinda -
Dreams, the way we planned 'em

GLINDA
If we work in tandem:

BOTH
There's no fight we cannot win
Just you and I
Defying gravity
With you and I
Defying gravity

ELPHABA
They'll never bring us down!
(spoken) Well? Are you coming?

GLINDA
I hope you're happy
Now that you're choosing this

ELPHABA
(spoken) You too
(sung) I hope it brings you bliss

BOTH
I really hope you get it
And you don't live to regret it
I hope you're happy in the end
I hope you're happy, my friend:

ELPHABA So if you care to find me
Look to the western sky!
As someone told me lately:
"Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly!"
And if I'm flying solo
At least I'm flying free
To those who'd ground me
Take a message back from me
Tell them how I am
Defying gravity
I'm flying high
Defying gravity
And soon I'll match them in renown
And nobody in all of Oz
No Wizard that there is or was
Is ever gonna bring me down!

GLINDA
I hope you're happy!

CITIZENS OF OZ
Look at her, she's wicked!
Get her!

ELPHABA
:Bring me down!

CITIZENS OF OZ
No one mourns the wicked
So we've got to bring her

ELPHABA
Ahhh!

CITIZENS OF OZ
Down!
 
I Caught Fire by The Used


Seemed to stop my breath
My head on your chest
Waiting to cave in
From the bottom of my...
Hear your voice again
Could we dim the sun
And wonder where we've been
Maybe you and me
So kiss me like you did
My heart stopped beating
Such a softer sin...

(I'm melting, I'm melting)
In your eyes
I lost my place
Could stay a while

And I'm melting
In your eyes
Like my first time
That I caught fire
Just stay with me
Lay with me
Now

Never caught my breath
Every second I'm without you I'm a mess
Ever know each other
Trust these words are stones
Why cuts aren't healing
Learning how to love

I'm melting (I'm melting)
In your eyes
I lost my place
Could stay a while
And I'm melting
In your eyes
Like my first time
That I caught fire
Just stay with me
Lay with me
(Stay with me lay with me now)

You could stay and watch me fall
And of course I'll ask for help
Just stay with me now
We could take our heads off
stay in bed and just make love that's all
Just stay with me now

I'm melting (I'm melting)
In your eyes
I lost my place
Could stay a while
and I'm melting

In your eyes
Like my first time
That I caught fire
Just stay with me
Lay with me
(I'm melting)
In your eyes
I lost my place
Could stay a while
and I'm melting
In your eyes
Like my first time
That I caught fire
Just stay with me lay with me
(Stay with me, lay with me)

In your eyes
Let's sleep till the sun burns out
I'm melting in your eyes (I'm melting)
In your eyes
Let's sleep till the sun burns out
I'm melting in your eyes
 
Let It Bleed by The Used


This poison’s my intoxication.
I broke the needle off in my skin.
Pick the scabs and pick the bleeding.
And assume that it was all in vain.
Positive a scab that's never healing.
Calloused hit me in the face.
A burning bridge thats's so misleading.
Poison’s more potent now with the flame.

Let it bleed.
And take the red for what it's worth, whoa.
Watch the fire.
Fill your lungs with smoke for the last time.
If you feel like dying, you might wanna sing.

The fire department couldn't drown the city.
They didn't even try to wash it clean.
[And what did you think that I was sober?] Worried to think that I was sober.
Put me out cause I'm on ****ing fire.
A positive scab that's never healing.
Regret that I kept this clean.
The most that I can do for you is keep on lying.
It's not a lie if you can let it sing.

Let it bleed.
And take the red for what it's worth, whoa.
Watch the fire.
Fill your lungs with smoke for the last time.
If you feel like dying you might wanna SING!

OH, OH, OH, OH YOU MIGHT WANNA SING!!
HA, HA, HA YOU MIGHT WANNA SING!!
HA, HA, YOU MIGHT WANNA SING!!
HA, HA SING!!!!!!!
YOU MIGHT WANNA SING!!
YOU MIGHT WANNA SING!!
YOU MIGHT WANNA SING OR SCREAM IT!!

This poison’s my intoxication.
I broke the needle off in my skin.
Picked the scabs and picked the bleeding.
Yeah, assume that it was all in vain.

Let it bleed.
And take the red for what it's worth, whoa.
Watch the fire.
Mamma fill your lungs with smoke for the last time.
If you feel like dying.
If you feel like dying.
If you feel like dying, you might wanna’ SING!
HA, HA, HA YOU MIGHT WANNA SING!!
HA, HA, YOU MIGHT WANNA SING!!
YOU MIGHT WANNA SING OR SCREAM IT!!!!

All That I've Got by The Used


So deep, that it didn't even bleed and catch me
Off guard, red handed
Now I'm far from lonely
Asleep, I still see you lying next to me
So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me, I...
I need something else
Would someone please just give me
Hit me, knock me out
And let me go back to sleep
I can't laugh
All I want inside I still am empty
So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me, I...

I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

I guess, I remember every glance you shot me
Unharmed, I'm losing weight and some body heat
I squalled so hard
I stopped your heart from beating
So deep that I didn't even scream **** me
I..

I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

And it's all that I've got
Yeah, it's all that I've got
It's all that I've got
It's all that I've got
It's all that I've got

So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me
So deep that I didn't even scream **** me

I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

And it's all that I've got
Yeah, it's all that I've got
 
Cut Up Angels by The Used


If we cut out the bad
Well then we'd have nothing left
Like I cut up your mouth
The night I stuffed it all in
And you lied to the angels
Said I stabbed you to death
If we go at the same time
They'll clean up the mess

I lost my head
You couldn't come
This lust to my brain almost feels like a gun

Watched you bite into the bottle
Watched me kick out the chair
Let you chew up the glass
And laughed as you just hung there
I had thought of rose petals most perfectly pure
Then I thought of your petals
And the abuse they've been through

I lost my head
You couldn't come
This lust to my brain almost feels like a gun
You lost your head
I couldn't come
This lust to my brain almost feels like a (like a)...
Almost feels like a (like a)...
Almost feels like a gun
Woah woah

I told the angels
Can't stay in heaven
I asked the devil, the devil, the devil
If we cut out the bad
Well then we'd have nothing left
Like I cut up your angels
Yeah you stabbed me to death

I lost my head
You couldn't come
This lust to my brain almost feels like a gun
You lost your head
I couldn't come
This lust to my brain almost feels just like a gun, yeah!

I lost my head
You couldn't come
Lust to my brain almost feels like a gun
I lost my head
You couldn't come
Lust to my brain almost feels like a (like a)...
Almost feels like a (like a )...
Almost feels like a gun
Feels like a gun,
Feels like a gun,
Feels like a gun,
Feels like a...
 
Listening by The Used


Your skin attached
(Your skin attached)
This fragile cliche
Of my broken heart attack
(Of my broken heart attack)
You should swallow your teeth and hang out and stay for a while
If your heart's still beating it must be the blood
If your lungs are still working it must be the mud
If it's still light out than a kick in the ribs today's worth
living

I don't see anything now
So just say what you wanna say
It's kind of funny how I'm not listening anyway
[laughter]

(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)

LIGHTS OUT, I CAN'T STAND TO HEAR YOU SCREAM
WHILE WE WERE MAKING LOVE I WAS FAST ASLEEP
AND THE NIGHT SKY BETTER, GIVE SOMETHING UP
GIVE SOMETHING UP

I don't see anything now
So just say what you wanna say
It's kind of funny how I'm not listening anyway

I don't see anything now
So just say what you wanna say
It's kind of funny how I'm not listening anyway (listening anyway)

Lights out
Lights out
Lights out
Lights out
LIGHTS OUT, I can't stand to hear you scream
While we were making love I was fast asleep
If your heart's still beating, it must be the blood
If your lungs are still working, it must be the mud
If it's still light out than a kick in the ribs if today's worth
living it probably IS...

I don't see anything now
So just say what you wanna say
It's kind of funny how I'm not listening anyway
I don't see anything now
So just say what you wanna say
It's kind of funny how I'm not listening anyway
I'm not listening anyway
I'm not listening anyway
I'm not listening

LISTENING
I'M NOT LISTENING
I'M NOT LISTENING
I'M NOT LISTENING
I'M NOT LISTENING...
 
Sound Effects And Overdramatics by The Used


When the shirt came off, it was all in time
When a m-m-m-minute turned into a mile
And I broke that grin, and I cut it out
And you got all turned on by the taste of your sin
When I mention blue, all I thought was color
When you mention drugs, all I thought was sober
When your pants came off and I turned you over
When you mention blue

Kill
Smile
Cut it out for me this time
Smile, I haven't seen him smile in a while

Keep the mask aligned
Cut it up in time
There's a space between valleys
And try and catch a vibe
Make a circle square
A rectangle curve
Use a smile as a noun and I think like a verb

Run quick switch sides
Spill the filled up canister
And the room is shaking
Now you're changing places
And I switched my pace
And my breathing races when you mention blue

Kill
Smile
Cut it out for me this time
Smile, haven't seen him smile in a while

Kill
(This is not, this is not)
Smile
(This is not)
Cut it out for me this time
(This is not, this is not)
Smile, haven't seen him smile in a while
(This is not a smile)

[lots of talking...]

Kill
Smile
Cut it out for me
Cut it, cut it out
Smile
Kill
Cut it out for me
Cut it, cut it out

We cut it out

Kill
Smile
Cut it out for me this time
Smile, haven't seen him smile in a while

Kill
(This is not, this is not)
Smile
(This is not)
Cut it out for me this time
(This is not, this is not)
Smile, haven't seen him smile in a while
(This is not a smile)

[???]
Get down and stay awake

Maybe Memories by The Used


As we trudged along through the mud
And we tried to call it home
But we weren't alright, not at all
Not for one, for one, for one second

Never have
been one to write it down
Now I think I can
I know I'm stronger now
Who's looking south
Not me I'm not looking back
I'm done denying the truth to anyone
Cause I'm alive

And we trudged along through the mud
We tried to call it home
But we weren't alright, not at all
Not for one, for one, for one second

You showed me how
You seemed to find a hole
But I just laughed and smiled
Begged and rolled my eyes
Even cried
And denied the truth to you
Just like the truth to me
Mostly lied

I'm not going to look back
I'm not going to look back
I'm not going to look back
I'm not going to look back

White it out
(like) glittering
wax butterflies, (butterflies, butterflies)

Never have
been one to write it down
Now I think I can
I know I'm stronger now
Who's looking south
Not me I'm not looking back
I'm done denying the truth to anyone
Cause I'm alive

I'm not going to look back
I'm not going to look back
I'm not going to look back

I'm not going to look back
I'm not going to look back
I'm not going to look back
I'm not going to look back
 
Alone This Holiday by The Used


Maybe light a candle
Don't say a prayer for me
Feel alone
'Cause I'm gone
I left you
Make Christmas your own

You throw the thought of us away
You'll be alone this holiday

Said, it's cold in this town
And there's snow on the ground
Far from home
Not alone
I left you with nothing
And that's what you own

You throw the thought of us away
(Throw the thought of us away)
You'll be alone this holiday

Maybe light a candle
Don't say a prayer for me
Feel alone
I left you at the best time
Now make christmas your own

You throw the thought of us away
(Throw the thought of us away)
You'll be alone this holiday

You'll be alone this holiday
You'll be alone this holiday
You'll be alone this holiday
You'll be alone this holiday
You'll be alone this holiday
You'll be alone this holiday
You'll be alone this holiday
 
Seize The Day - Avenged Sevenfold

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
These's streets we traveled on will undergo our same lost past

I found you here, now please just stay for a while
I can move on with you around
I hand you my mortal life, but will it be forever?
I'll do anything for a smile, holding you 'til our time is done
We both know the day will come, but I don't want to leave you

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
(a melody, a memory, or just one PICTURE)

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

Newborn life replacing all of us, changing this fable we live in
No longer needed here so where do we go?
Will you take a journey tonight, follow me past the walls of death?
But girl, what if there is no eternal life?

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
(a melody, a memory, or just one PICTURE)

Seize the day or die regretting the time You lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over
Trials in life, questions of us existing here
Don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

So what if I never hold you, yeah, or kiss your lips again? Whooooah
So I never want to leave you and the memories OF us to see
I beg don't leave me

Seize the day or die regretting the time You lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over
Trials in life, questions of us existing here
Don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)
(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)
I stand here alone
Falling away from you, no chance to get back home

(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)
(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)

Things appear gone, things appear gone, things appear gone

Where'd you go?

Seems like your better half said it all
You're wonderful
(You're wonderful)
Seems like your better half said it all

Where'd you go?
Seems like your better half said it all
You're wonderful
Seems like your better half said it
 
Standing In The Rain from Billy Talent


My head, it hurts, each day it's getting worse,
My looks and smile have now become my curse,
Tight lips, red skirt the never ending street,
Big car, little man, my lover for a fee...

So if ya see me will ya just drive on by
Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye?
And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you
Oh pretty baby how could you!

Standing in the rain...
Milk carton mug shot baby missing since 1983,
Standing in the rain...
20 years of dirty needles rain drops running through my veins!

My head, it hurts, each day it's getting worse,
No sun, my room has now become my hearse,
Cold sores, I'm beat got bruises on my feet,
My pride, these men have taken it from me!

So if ya see me will ya just drive on by
Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye?
And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you
Oh pretty baby how could you!

Standing in the rain...
Milk carton mug shot baby missing since 1983,
Standing in the rain...
20 years of dirty needles rain drops running through my veins!

Standing in the rain...

And if ya want me, well, I guess I want you
Oh pretty baby how could you!

Standing in the rain...

Standing in the rain...
Milk carton mug shot baby, mother I have lost my way

Milk carton mug shot baby missing since 1983,
Standing in the rain...
20 years of dirty needles rain drops running through my veins!

Standing in the rain...
Mother I have lost my way

Cut The Curtains from Billy Talent


My girl, you're so hot when you walk you melt snow
And now the disco has finally grown old
Let's buy back our souls

So let's see, we've got five bucks between you and me
My mental dishes are finally clean
So cleared are we

Cut the curtains, the actors have gone home
Cut the curtains, the actors have gone home
Intermission's a mission on it's own
Intermission's a mission on it's own

Now here, seems our wax wings have melted away
And we've only been here for one day
My faith fades away

So don't be, a gray cloud when there's none in the sky
We found there's no hidden treasure to find
At least we tried

Cut the curtains, the actors have gone home

Scars - Papa Roach

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
And my scars remind me that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel

Drunk and I'm feeling down
And I just wanna be alone
I'm pissed cause you came around
Why don't you just go home
Cause you channel all your pain
And I can't help you fix yourself
You're making me insane
All I can say is

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
And our scars remind us that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel

I tried to help you once
Against my own advice
I saw you going down
But you never realized
That you're drowning in the water
So I offered you my hand
Compassions in my nature
Tonight is our last stand

I'm drunk and I'm feeling down
And I just wanna be alone
You shouldn't ever come around
Why don't you just go home?
Cause you're drowning in the water
And I tried to grab your hand
And I left my heart open
But you didn't understand
But you didn't understand
Go fix yourself

I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
 
Seize The Day - Avenged Sevenfold

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
These's streets we traveled on will undergo our same lost past

I found you here, now please just stay for a while
I can move on with you around
I hand you my mortal life, but will it be forever?
I'll do anything for a smile, holding you 'til our time is done
We both know the day will come, but I don't want to leave you

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
(a melody, a memory, or just one PICTURE)

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

Newborn life replacing all of us, changing this fable we live in
No longer needed here so where do we go?
Will you take a journey tonight, follow me past the walls of death?
But girl, what if there is no eternal life?

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
(a melody, a memory, or just one PICTURE)

Seize the day or die regretting the time You lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over
Trials in life, questions of us existing here
Don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

So what if I never hold you, yeah, or kiss your lips again? Whooooah
So I never want to leave you and the memories OF us to see
I beg don't leave me

Seize the day or die regretting the time You lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over
Trials in life, questions of us existing here
Don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)
(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)
I stand here alone
Falling away from you, no chance to get back home

(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)
(Silence, you lost me-- no chance for one more day)
 
the first song on one of the greatest cds ever (in my opinion), The Ugly Organ, by Cursive.

Art is Hard by Cursive

Cut it out, your self-inflicted pain is getting too routine
the crowds are catching on to the self-afflicted song
well here we go again, the art of acting weak
fall in love to fail, to boost your CD sales
and that CD sells yeah what a hit, you got to repeat it
you gotta sink to swim

First you dont, you dont succeed
you gotta recreate your misery
cause we all know art is hard
young artists have gotta starve
try and fail and try again
the comforts of repetition
keep churnin out those hits
till its all the same old ****

Oh, a second verse
well color me fatigued
im hiding in the leaves
in the CD jacket sleeves
tired of entertaining
some double-dipped meaning
a soft served analogy
those drunken angry slur
in 31 flavours
you gotta sink gotta sink gotta sink to swim
immerse yourself in rejection
regurgitate some sorry tale
about a boy who sells his love affairs

Gotta fake (fake) fake (fake) fake the pain
gotta make (make) make (make) make a scene
gotta break (break) break (break) break a leg
when you get on stage and they scream your name
oh cursive is so cool!

You gotta sink gotta sink gotta sink to swim
impersonate greater persons
cause we all know art is hard
when we dont know who we are

hey hey
hey hey
