Paralyzer - Finger Eleven

I hold on so nervously, to me and my drink
I wish it was cooling me
But so far has not been good
It's been ****ty, and I feel awkward as I should
This club has got to be the most pretentious thing
Since I thought you and me
Well, I am imagining a dark lit place
Or your place, or my place

Well I'm not paralyzed but I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move because you're standing still
If your body matches what your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through me on my way to you

I hold out for one more drink, before I think
I'm looking too desperately
But so far has not been fun
I should just stay home, if one thing really means one
This club will hopefully be closed in three weeks
That would be cool with me
Well, I'm still imagining a dark lit place
Or your place, or my place

Well I'm not paralyzed but I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move because you're standing still
If your body matches what your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through me on my way to you

Well I'm not paralyzed but I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move because you're standing still
If your body matches what your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through me on my way to you

Not paralyzed but I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move because you're standing still
If your body matches what your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through me on my way to you

You'll probably move right through me on my way to you
You'll probably move right through me on my way to you.

Blue Monday from Greeley Estates


I'm not a monster, I'm just a sick man.
Who would give anything to have his soul back.
I'm not a monster, I'm just a sick man.
Who would give anything to have his soul back.

You should probably just shoot me in the head now,
Or otherwise, I'm gonna kill you.
I'm sick, really sick.
I'm one of them now.

Quarantine me.
I'm infected.
Quarantine me.
Don't you just love what I've become.

I'm not a monster, I'm just a sick man.
Who would do anything, to get his soul back.
I'm not a monster, I'm just a sick man.
Who would do anything, to get his soul back.

You should probably just cover your eyes now.
I'll have to warn you, this is gonna hurt, really hurt.
I'm one of them now.

Quarantine me.
I'm infected.
Quarantine me.
Don't you just love what I've become.
Don't you just love what I've become.

I don't blame you for wanting me dead.
I don't blame you for wanting me dead.
I don't blame you for wanting me dead.
I'm one of them now.

I don't blame you for wanting me dead.
I don't blame you for wanting me dead.
I don't blame you for wanting me dead.
I'm one of them now.

I feel it in my blood now it's turning me, it's turning me.
I feel it in my blood now it's turning me.

I feel it in my blood now it's turning me, it's turning me.
I feel it in my blood now it's turning me, it's turning me.
I feel it in my blood now it's turning me, it's turning me.

You better lock the doors and hide.
You better lock the doors and hide.
You better lock the doors and hide.
You better lock the doors and hide.
You better lock the doors and hide.
You better lock the doors and hide.

Falling On - Finger Eleven

When you feel so close to some resolve
you write the words that you were writing for
but your courage gets dissolved
into what i don't know
when you feel that way again
you have to stop your thinking
think of what you're here for
and let the rest of your feelings go

you've got to find your balance
you got to realize
you've got to try to find what's right before your eyes oh
and if you find you're fallen
and all your grace is gone
just scream for me and i'll be what you're falling on oh

when you feel so close to some resolve
you say the things that you're standing for
don't let your courage get dissolved
cause it's then that the fear grows

you've got to find your balance
you've got to realize
you've got to try to find what's right before your eyes oh
and if you find you're fallen
and all your grace is gone
just scream for me and i'll be what you're falling on oh-ho

whoa
whoa-ho
just give me the word and i'll be there
just tell me the words that i've been living for
Just give me the word and I will be there
Just tell me the words that I've been living for
Just tell me the things you might have said before
It's do or die, this is either or
Just give me the word and I will be there
Just give me the word and I will be there

You've got to find your balance
you've have to realize
you've got to try to find what's right before your eyes oh
and if you find you're fallen
and all your grace is gone
just scream for me and i'll be what you're falling on oh

you've got to find your balance
you've got to realize
you've got to try to find what's right before your eyes oh
and if you find you're fallen
and all your grace is gone
just scream for me and i'll be what you're falling on oh-ho

I'll Keep Your Memory Vague - Finger Eleven

This wont break your heart
but i just think it could
cause i haven't tried as hard as i should
to seperate you from everything i do
but i would never wanna come between us two

I'll keep your memory vague
so you wont feel bad about me
i'll say the things that you said
sometimes the wind reminds me
i'll keep your memory vague
so you wont feel bad about me
i'll say the things that you said
sometimes the wind reminds me

Now i'm thinking back
to what i said before
i hope your heart wont have to hurt anymore
cause it's really not that sad
from here
because the moments i can feel you near
they keep you close to me my dear
and if they ever become to clear

I'll keep your memory vague
so you wont feel bad about me
i'll say the things that you said
sometimes the wind reminds me
i'll keep your memory vague
so you wont feel bad about me
i'll say the things that you said
sometimes the wind reminds me

Now you're gone away
don't worry it's okay
that you're gone away
now you're gone away
further then yesterday
but you'll never leave these scenes
my mind replays

I'll keep your memory vague
so you wont feel bad about me
i'll say the things that you said
sometimes the wind reminds me
i'll keep your memory vague
so you wont feel bad about me
i'll say the things that you said
sometimes the wind reminds me

I'll keep your memory vague
so you wont feel bad about me
where in the world have you gone now?
i'll say the things that you said
sometimes the wind reminds me
where in the world have you gone now?
i'll keep your memory vague
so you wont feel bad about me
where in the world have you gone now?
i'll say the things that you said
sometimes the wind reminds me

Lost My Way - Finger Eleven

I'm bound to wander where
All of your glitter's going
But I'm so far from knowing
And none of my instincts showing
Kick in, kick in
I'm screaming from outside in
Tell me where I've been
There's nowhere to return to out there

I think I've lost my way
But that's just not news today
Because the story's old
The black and white
Have gone to grey
The story's old
The black and white
Have gone to grey
And you were right
Cause I finally lost my way

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Ice by Lights


My mouth is frozen so I can't even speak
What a disappointment, I had it perfectly
What I was going to bring up suddenly
Stood like a stone as you stood quietly
You're making it hard for me
And all I can do is freeze

What I mean is, all I need is,
Just a little emotion
'Cause all I see is you not feeling
And you're giving me nothing nice
I tried to do you right, why'd you have to go and turn to ice, ice

I don't think you're knowing how hard this is for me
I'm not the type to say sorry constantly
So I swallowed my pride and I got on my knees
But still you just stood there as you stared at me
Your ego is getting old
How did you get so cold

What I mean is, all I need is,
Just a little emotion
'Cause all I see is you not feeling
And you're giving me nothing nice
I tried to do you right, why'd you have to go and turn to ice, ice

I'm looking at you looking at me, what can I do but say sorry
It's a little late but you know I just want you to be happy.
What I got to say to make you let me get away with it this time.
I know you're upset and that you're happy just to sit and hate me,
But I'll make a bet that you'll be better to forget about me,
Even better yet I'll let a little light melt the ice, ice baby

My mouth is frozen so I can't even speak
I'm not the type to say sorry constantly

What I mean is, all I need is,
Just a little emotion
'Cause all I see is you not feeling
And you're giving me nothing

What I mean is, all I need is,
Just a little emotion
'Cause all I see is you not feeling
And you're giving me nothing nice
I tried to do you right, why'd you have to go
I tried to do you right, why'd you have to go and turn to ice

So-So Suicide - Finger Eleven

I felt the blisters
Below the words
A universe waiting to explode

And I felt the words crawl out of my skull
And now you know
Exactly what you should

Don't bother pretending I seem fine
I like that I'm a mess
I can't stand it much longer in my head
I think it's time for bullets

Became so-so suicidal
And now I know the ugly from the good

Don't bother pretending I seem fine
I like that I'm a mess
I can't stand it much longer in my head
I think it's time for bullets

Don't bother pretending I seem fine
I'm trying to confess
I can't stand it much longer in my head
But it's not time for bullets

Trouble Breathing from Alkaline Trio

You told me that you want to die
I said I've been there myself more than a few times
And I go back every once in a while
You called me lucky, you...you called me lucky.

You said tonight is a wonderful night to die
I asked you how you could tell you told me to look at the sky
Look at all those stars,
Look at how ******* ugly the stars are.

It's one or another
Between a rope and a bottle
I can tell you're having trouble breathing

'Cause you'll never be okay
You'll never be okay
(You'll always be in pain)
You'll always feel this way
'Cause things they never work out right
(The wrong way the lonely way)
You'll always be in pain

You told me that the daylight burns you
And that the sunrise was enough to kill you
I said maybe you're a vampire
You said it's quite possible I feel truly dead inside.

It's one or another
Between a rope and a bottle
I can tell you're having trouble breathing

'Cause you'll never be okay
You'll never be okay
(You'll always be in pain)
You'll always feel this way
'Cause things they never work out right
(The wrong way the lonely way)
You'll always be in pain

Don't forget to let your life rot you inside out.
Don't forget to let your life rot you inside out.
Don't forget to let your life rot you inside out.

Window Song - Finger Eleven

All the windows are playing their game
Where I won't see outside again
Till I write all the fog away
I'm putting words in their place
Between me and the window's pane
From my inarticulate brain
But all of the fog is erased
When I write all the words that I never said
To you

Now the impulse won't go away
"Distracted by something?" you'd say
Cause you don't see anything
It's just between windows and me
Wait till it rains again
And I write all the words that I never said
To you

Will you try to read these lines?
Focus hard and give it time
Who you are in my life
Reads as the water washes

Now the dirt on the window is showing
I should have drawn something instead
The dirt on the window is showing
I should never have written my head
I should never have written what I never said
To you

Sense Of A Spark - Finger Eleven

let other words fail
i don't find it fair
but anyway
this little string keeps on pulling
so i gotta pull myself down some different path
inside my mind
needs out
i wanna trip myself away
but i better wait, i better wait, i better wait i

i get the sense of a spark so i follow
"i don't believe that she knows something i know"
i tell myself i stay in the shadow
i tell myself not to go but i go

needing to see
which ever way she's going
if there's anyway
so far from here
there's little fear her words could ever hurt me
i don't want to wait, don't want to wait
don't want to wait i

i get the sense of a spark so i follow
"i don't believe that she knows something i know"
i tell myself i stay in the shadow
i tell myself not to go not to go but i go
not to go not to go but i go

don't look don't talk don't yell just close your eyes
this may or may not come as some surprise
i've found obsessions which to live or die by
don't look don't talk don't yell just close your eyes

i get the sense of a spark so i follow
"i don't believe that she knows something i know"
i tell myself i stay in the shadow
i tell myself not to go not to go

i get the sense of a spark so i follow
"i don't believe that she knows something i know"
i tell myself i stay in the shadow
i tell myself not to go not to go but i go
not to go not to go but i go

Allegoria from She Screams Remedy


I'll be erased and only time can tell how it will happen
Someone will replace a childlike with naive imperfection

And "cast away your sins and you'll be saved"
The tales that you've been told, in search of all that's gold
Or so they say

Falling from grace is something that I wish could really happen
It's only for the taste, a reassuring play on how it all began

And "cast away your sins and you'll be saved"
The tales that you've been told, in search of all that's gold
"Cast away your sins and you'll be saved"
Or so they say
The tales that you have told in search of all that's gold
Or so they say

Talking to the Walls - Finger Eleven

No hostage has been held
Like I've been holding mine
But I'm just fine...
Since I've been without you

No prisoner could climb the walls
That I've built up in my mind
Since I've been without you

But I'm holding down and out.
I'm desperate without you

Look at the shape I'm in...
Talking to the Walls again
Just look at the state I'm in...
Bent and broken is all I've been

No universal truth is time

No world or universe, but mine
Could ever feel as under line
Since I've been without you

No instances from time to time
Feel like things will turn out right
Since I've been without you

But I'm holding down and out.
I'm desperate without you

Look at the shape I'm in...
Talking to the Walls again
Just look at the state I'm in...
Bent and broken is all I've been

No universal truth is time

There's no universal You & I

There's no one to make me read or write (?)

Look at the shape I'm in...
Talking to the Walls again
Just look at the state I'm in...
Bent and broken is all I've been (x2)

(No, universal truth is time)
Look at the shape I'm in...
Talking to the Walls again
Just look at the state I'm in...
Bent and broken is all I've been

No universal truth is time

Gather and Give - Finger Eleven

I would give anything that's worth giving
I would say any line
To try to get you nearer to me
But you've never been one
To love being lied to
And this artificial side
Just makes me disappear from you

So I'm gathering up the truth
And I've giving it all to you
If it's the last thing I do
Cause I won't be free till I give it all to you

Heavy as it seems
All I'm saying
You don't have to drag it out
Kicking and screaming
When it finally comes
I hope you hear me
Then whatever chains us down
Becomes whatever sets us free

So I'm gathering up the truth
And I'm giving it all to you
If it's the last thing I do
Cause I won't be free till I give it all to you

Yeah I'm gathering up the truth
And I'm giving it all to you
There's nothing more I can do
Cause I won't be free...

It's not as easy as you make it sound
Not even when I try to sound it out
I try my best to make it come around
But it's not that easy for me

But I'm gathering up the truth
And I'm giving it all to you
If it's the last thing I do
Cause I won't be free till I give it all to you

Chaos In Concert from She Screams Remedy


Panic, disaster
Your heart's beating faster and you can't sleep
Breathing, convulsive
It all seems impulsive, and you're too weak
Now you're in too deep to fold

Oh, wouldn't it feel the same if I told you
What you try to hide will wear away the inside?
And you can feel your hands tied
Do you feel alive?
Break away the binds, free what's on the inside

When your world stops revolving
What will you do to remedy?
And when it all comes falling
It becomes hard to disagree why you don't see

Oh, wouldn't it feel the same if I told you
What you try to hide will tear away the inside?
And you can feel your hands tied
Do you feel alive?
Break away the binds, free what's on the inside

This shaking can't last much longer
This shaking can't last much longer
This shaking can't last much

Oh, wouldn't it feel the same if I told you
What you try to hide will tear away the inside?
And you can feel your hands tied
Do you feel alive?
Break away the binds, free what's on the inside

And oh, wouldn't it feel the same?
(This shaking can't last much longer)
Wouldn't it feel the same if I told you
(This shaking can't last)
And now, wouldn't it feel the same?
(This shaking can't last much longer)
Couldn't it feel the same if I told you?
So save yourself

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Travesty from She Screams Remedy


Sit with your plastic smile
Surrounded in the bars you made (the bars you made)
Waiting for someone to save you
But you'll never change, you'll never change

Time and time again you let them tell you, who you would be
Your shallow eyes are the reason you no longer see
This is the last time (this is the last time)
Your whole life is a travesty

Sit with you plastic smile
Surrounded in the bars you made (the bars you made)
Waiting for someone to save you
But you'll never change, you'll never change

You're telling your story, will you be able
Able to feel real
You're digging your grave so burn your casket (burn your casket)
This is the last time (this is the last time)
Your whole life is a travesty

Sit with your plastic smile
Surrounded in the bars you made (the bars you made)
Waiting for someone to save you
But you'll never change, you'll never change

Who am I today
You allowed them to build you while preaching
Individuality

Tell me now what do you see
They tore it away
Will I find out the real me
And you won't feel this again
Tell me now what do you see
Don't let them let you
Fade

Easy Life - Finger Eleven

If I were the betting kind I bet you thought the easy life
Was the one you thought you'd live by
And all you had to do was decide
A swimming pool size
Well, you're right

I wish there was an ending to spoil
So as long as I'm thinking
How about a great tragedy?
Where I imagine fire and glass and taillights blinking
We'll see.

And if I was the betting kind I bet you thought the easy life
Was the one you thought you'd live by
All you had to do was decide
A swimming pool size
Well, you're right

I wish there was an ending to spoil
So as long as I'm thinking
About a horrible scene
Where I can watch your hopes and your dreams
Just blow into pieces
Before me?

Is there something to learn
Or something to see?
Because nothing to lose
Is not nothing to be

Haven't you
Heard the messages
Haven't you
Read the passages
There's a ghost who
Is going to haunt me for all my life
I'll bet he never touches you

I guess the differences
Between us 3-
They make our open books awful hard to read

Maybe I've
Been painting you
With all the wrong brushes too
Maybe you
Really know
What too much is, well...
Well maybe you do

I wish there was an ending to spoil
So as long as I'm thinking
How about a great tragedy?
Where I imagine fire and glass and taillights blinking
We'll see.

Because nothing to lose is not nothing to be
Because nothing to lose is not nothing to me

Measures And Marks from She Screams Remedy


A timeline made the difference
The holes of measures and marks
Heart on your sleeve, no concious to reside
No need to cover the scars

And are you hanging on by a thread?
But you seem reluctant
And is it any wonder why you can't see or believe?
Believe in me

Face to the floor, mind absent from all thought
And your stare is vacant and lonely
And you're still the only one who won't help yourself

And are you hanging on by a thread?
But you seem reluctant
And is it any wonder why you can't see or believe?
Believe in me

Bear patiently young heart
For you've seen heavier things
When fate tears you apart I will mend you at the seems
Mend you
And as for fate, I'm sure that no one can escape it

Are you hanging on?
Are you hanging on?

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Efflorescent from She Screams Remedy


Are you to grow?
No roots in the ground, acid rain falling down
You're drowning
Don't make a sound
Fear what you say next, words are put to the test
You're hollow and bleeding out
Tear away the foliage, the soil is watered out
Planted all these hopes and dreams without seeds in the ground
This pollution's gotten under your skin
The fear of faith in beauty keeps you withering

Come back again
Support's falling down, everything that surrounds you
It's failing
Invaded ground
The enemy's near, it is so sad to hear
Your actions caught up to you now

Tear away the foliage, the soil is watered out
Planted all these hopes and dreams without seeds in the ground
This pollution's gotten under your skin
The fear of faith in beauty keeps you withering

It's too late, "give into us," they said
Never was worth it
Now they're stealing the air
Gasping for breath, the color is siphoned from you
From you

Such ugly beings with siren voices
Causing a choir of rotted seeds
Singing songs of lost desire
Growing through cracks in the concrete

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

A Formal Apology from She Screams Remedy


These men, they turn their sails
Shut your ears
Fixed upon the lies of bells
These songs I sing will end you all
Still you fall
Temptation has taken over
Untie me now so I may leap
From this ship and out to sea
The sirens call is begging me
Though death is all that awaits

Persephone shall hear our cries
Sending her souls from the other side
Debt paid in full when we meet again, until then
Temptation has taken over

Untie me now so I may leap
From this ship and out to sea
The sirens call is begging me
Though death is all that awaits
I know it's not for men to see
"How could you run away when I can give what you need?"
This ***** is calling me to sleep

But why is it passing by?
Come and find me
Don't leave
Oh, my charm must never fail
So open up your ears
If you listen you will love me
With my last words I am begging
Turn your ship and come back to me
Swallow gallons before you leave (Untie me now so I may leap)
Tonight my bed is the bottom of the sea
