The What's On Your Mind Thread and the Battle of Hogwarts

Who do you carry the torch for, my young man?
Do you believe in anything?
Do you carry it around just to burn things down?

Meet me tonight on the turnpike, my darling
'Cause we believe in everything
If we sweat all these debts then we're sure to drown
So we strap ourselves up to this engine now
with a God that we found, laying under the backseat
 

What did you learn tonight?
you're shouting so loud you barely enjoy this broken thing
you're a voice that never sings, is what I say
You were freezing over hell
You were bringing on the end, you do so well
You can only blame yourself, it's what I say

Order your daughters to ignore me, think that will sort me
and sweep me under the rug
And a beating with a book everyone
the book tells you to love
There is an ember in the heart of the kiln
And its burning hot with love
Burning out my sins until there's nothing but dust
holding me with care into your cigarette
Cause the God I believe in never worked on a campaign trail

Do you carry it around just to burn things to the ground?

Feels like we could escape this
I might throw it away for fear of the silver sun
If you try running a maze of your lies
It's too hard to save you've thrown out everyone
 
I'd arrest you if I had handcuffs
I'd arrest you if I had the time
I'd throw you down in the backseat
As if you committed a terrible crime

We break into towns worth of houses
And rob whole families blind
I'd do it to you like you do it to me
If I knew you would get away fine
 
I'd drown all these crying babies
If I knew that there mothers wouldn't cry
I'd hold them down and I'd squeeze real soft
And let a piece of myself die

It's hard to be the better man
When you forget you're trying
It's hard to be the better man
 
I'd arrest you if I had handcuffs
I'd arrest you if I had the time
I'd wait for you outside the courtroom (and taunt you)
As all of your appeals were declined

I'd drive my car off of the bridge
If I knew that you weren't inside
Put the pedal to the floor, who could ask for more
A fantastic way to kill some time
 
If you could lay on your back and be beaten
You could put up your fists and fight
(You could try anyway)

It's hard to be the better man
When you forget you're trying
It's hard to be the better man
When you're still lying
 
It's hard to be the better man
When you forget you're trying
It's hard to be the better man
When you're still lying
You're still lying
 
You know something's up when everything works but Google...
 
Maybe I can try to get more into Daisy. One or two listens over a year ago, maybe I'll like it more now.
 
Myspace doesn't have Deja Entendu, so I'll just listen to Daisy.
 
"Far away from any road,
Froze my heart in solitude,
Where your passerby can see,
Our life's highway guard within,
Knowing when our last does fail,
Our compassion shall be met,
Everything, let me be,
Our life's highway guard within."

We need vices (oh),
We need vices (oh),
Where's all my hope and my marriage license,
(where's my head?)

Those days are dead
(forgive me)
Those days are dead
(forgive me)
Those days are dead
(forgive me)
We need vices at fifty thousand degrees

She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
And jumped

I got creative (oh no),
To try to kill the major,
Where is my trigger?
My mind eraser
(we sing that so subtle...)

And that forest burned
(you see smoke...)
That forest burned
That forest burned
(a halo...)
We need ten years, everyone, so we can return

She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
And jumped

We need vices (oh),
We need vices (oh),
We've done nothing but brandish our disguises

Those days are dead
(forgive me)
Those days are dead
(forgive me)
Those days are dead
(forgive me)
We need vices to wave to the good old days

She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
She said goodbye to the ground
And jumped

This song scared me the first time I listened to it...
