Album | Somewhere At The Bottom Of The River Between Vega And Altair
You still cross my mind from time to time. And I mostly smile. Still so set on finding out where we went wrong and why. So I retrace our every step with an unsure pen, trying to figure out what my head thinks, but my head just ain’t what it used to be. And then again, what’s the point anyway? I remember you ascending all the stairs up to the balcony to see if you could see me - hidden quietly away. And I remember the skin of your fingers, The spot three quarters up I’d always touch when I was out of things to say. You held my hand, but you were too afraid to speak and I could never understand. I remember when you leaned in quick to kiss me, and I swear, that not a single force on earth could stop the trembling of my hand. And I remember how you smiled through the smoke in a crowded little coffeehouse and laughed at all my jokes. And I remember the way that you dressed and, how we wasted all the best of us in alcohol and sweat. And I remember when I knew that you’d be leaving, how I barely kept up breathing. And I bet if I had to do it all again, I’d feel the same pain, and I remember panicked circles in the terminal in tears. How I wept to god in fits. I’ve hated airports ever since. It must be true what people say, that only time can heal the pain. And every single day I feel it fade away, but - I still remember how the distance tricked us,
and lead us helpless by the wrist into a pit to be devoured. I still remember how we held so strong to this, though we had never really settled on a way out. I still remember the silence, and how we’d always find a way to turn and run to our mistakes. I still remember how it all came back together just to fall apart again. My dear, I hear your voice in mine. I’ve been alone here, I’ve been afraid, my dear. I’ve been at home here. You’ve been away for years. I’ve been alone.
I breathed your name into the air; I etched your name into me. I felt my anger swelling; I swam into it’s sea. I held your name inside my heart, but it got buried in my fear. It tore the wiring of my brain; I did my best to keep it clear. So, dear, no matter how we part, I hold you sweetly in my head. And if I do not miss a part of you, a part of me is dead. If I can’t love you as a lover, I will love you as a friend. And I will lay a bed before you; keep you safe until the end.

The faith in me runs thinner than the water rising to my eyebrows, slowly but surely I am drowning in the wistful body I call my own. New days bring new dreams to there knees searching for something, nothing, anything. Hands clenched together in praise while the rhythm pulls away,
there are no walls that can hold this. There is no voice that can save my soul. There are no words that can breathe life into the worthless skin, bones I have grown to call my home.
Descendents - Nothing With You
Song | Nothing With You
Band | Descendents
Album | Cool To Be You
I don’t wanna move, I’ll just sit here in my living room and see what’s on the tube while I’m hanging out with you. People knock on my door, ringing my phone telling me the things I gotta get done today. To satisfy them, but what about me? Lately I’ve been wishing I was brain dead, no responsibilities in my head today. Baby let’s see what’s on the TV. Doing nothing having fun
off to bed to get things done. I’m not lazy, I’m in love, I don’t wanna move. I’ll just sit here in my living room and see what’s on the tube while I’m hanging out with you. People pressing my flesh
Taking my time, they don’t know a thing about my life with you, I’m trying real hard. Hard not to care, cause all I ever really want to do is sit around doing nothing with you. Because nothing’s only fun when you’re there. “Mad About You” at dinnertime, “Seinfeld”, “Simpsons”, “So-Called Life”, seen the reruns 20 million times. I don’t wanna move, I’ll just sit here in my living room and see what’s on the tube while I’m hanging out with you. All I wanna do is just sit here in my living room and see what’s on the tube while I’m hanging out with you. All I wanna do, all I wanna do,
all I wanna do Is do nothing with you. All I wanna do, all I wanna do, all I wanna do is do nothing with you.

Album | Las Menos Macabras De La Vida
Han pasado veintinueve años desde que me conocí. No sé quién soy, quién fui y quién seré. ¿Y cómo fue? ¿Qué pasó? ¿Por qué no puedo decirme adiós? ¿Por qué? ¿Por qué? ¿Por qué? Han pasado casi treinta años desde que me descubrí. ¿Sabré quién soy, quién fui, y quién seré?
¿Y cómo fue? ¿Qué pasó? Y nadie sabe lo que fui y a nada sabe lo que soy. E impredecible lo que seré. ¿Y cómo fue? ¿Qué pasó?
More Than Life - Love Let Me Go
Song | Love Let Me Go
Band | More Than Life
Album | Love Let Me Go
Breath in and cut shorter. Don ‘t let your heart sink lower. I know we had differences but this love will last a lifetime. If we put our heads together and trace back this history, it won’t take long to realize how much you mean to me. Old photographs still stuck to the door, smoke stained teeth and damp cold floors. The first time your kiss seemed softer, that one time when your heart broke harder. It’s this love we never had, sometimes think that I’m glad this hate I miss being by your side, I need a place to hide. I’ve tried to forget your name but every night seems the same. Disintegration will follow, I’ve never felt a pain in life so hollow, I’ve given up. I’m letting go, I’m so scared of what will follow. I’ve never felt a pain in life so hollow. Letting go of everything I used to know, love let me go.
Pentimento - Words With Friends
Song | Words With Friends
Band | Pentimento
Album | Wrecked (Unplugged EP)
Every year, I am brought back to the same places. It’s like my mind begs me to catch up to the thoughts I’ve had a billion times already. So-long. So-long to better days. So afraid, too afraid to face the road of failure I’ve paved to find my way back home. I’ll leave a trail of stones to prove I’ve had my prouder moments. Suddenly, my time alone means so much more. I know this heart is well known for falling apart, but I’ll learn to rely on the sunshine and the weather. To forget all our time together. I’ve got that itch again. To make things worse in steady increments. When the walls caved in, I was left to my own devices. And I learned that day that I’m more real than concrete.
And now I know… I’m not afraid.
Black Breath - Black Sin (Spit On The Cross)
Song | Black Sin (Spit On The Cross)
Band | Black Breath
Album | Heavy Breathing
Nothing is left, only the mask of the goat. Releasing death. Imprisoned inside of the host. Death lust. Darkest of sin, black sin. Rapture in blood, symbols on the breast. Chanting the name of the one who has no breath. Death lust. Darkest of sin, black sin. Come take this knife and slip it in the breast of the babe. Drink the blood from the cup. Reject christ, spit on the cross. Black sin.
Song | The Great Pan Is Dead

Album | Cherish The Light Years
Tell me when the world is ending. You won’t be there still pretending. I was just someone you would love to love but never love. I know people without substance will fill themselves with substance. But then, honey child, there was us. There still is. I will come running, running through the years, hunting heart, crushing fear. I am still haunting down the road I know of the hell that that begs and burns below. Tell me how the stars exploded. Heaven caved In, Earth corroded. I was still breaking my boy in when you first touch me. I know people will say we’ve thrown our lives away. But is there a trail to salvation or salvation anyway? Their love laughs at locksmiths, we’re smashing through the windows of delicate dream homes. I feel so crowded alone. The empathy of breaking chains, the sympathy in crashing waves. Careful boy, caution girl, I do not think we’re meant for this world. Forever haunted by the roads I know and if not above I’ll see you below.

Whatever happened to all those little lies? Whatever happened to all your little lies? Whatever happened to all those little lies? You wrapped yourself too tight this time. Whatever happened to all your little lies? They cover you up and now you’re screaming at the sky.Who asked to be born and who wants to die? What are we other than ships just passing in the night? Stay with me tonight. I won’t make a sound. Won’t you stay with me tonight? I won’t make a sound. Whatever happened to all those little lies? You wrapped yourself too tight this time. Whatever happened to all your little lies? They cover you up and now you’re screaming at the sky. Whatever happened to all those little lies? You wrapped yourself too tight this time. Whatever happened to all your little lies? They cover you up and now you’re screaming at the sky. Who asked to be born and who wants to die? What are we other than ships just passing in the night? Stay with me tonight I won’t make a sound. Won’t you stay with me tonight? I won’t make a sound. Stay with me tonight. I won’t make a sound. Won’t you stay with me tonight? I won’t make a sound. Whatever happened to all those little lies? Whatever happened to all your little lies? Stay with me tonight. I won’t make a sound. Won’t you stay with me tonight? I won’t make a sound. You fed them til they grew. And then they covered up the best of you. They covered up the best you. So don’t make a sound .

Album | Some Kind Of Cadwallader
Porcelain seat reading that keeps me up to my eyes in covers at night. But the one that scared the shit out of me. Followed Frankenstein. And the walking dead, Drake Douglas depicts. The African, slave trade and blunts Dracula’s teeth. Wolfman loses his wolf. The dead alive walk back to their graves and crawl inside The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and all of these, just baby brother of
American history.
Song | Save Your Scissors
Band | City and Colour
Album | Sometimes
So go on and I will refrain. And I’ll keep on running this neverending race, maybe next time will be the right time and maybe next time will be your time. So save your scissors for someone else’s skin. My surface is so tough I don’t think the blade will dig in. Save your strength, save your wasted time. There’s no way that I want you to be left behind. Go on save your scissors, save your scissors. So why does it always seem that every time I turn around somebody falls in love with me? This has never been my sole intention and I have never claimed to have patents on such inventions. Just save your scissors for someone else’s skin. My surface is so tough I don’t think the blade will dig in. Save your strength, save your wasted time. There’s no way that I want you to be left behind. Go on save your scissors, save your scissors. There is something that I must confess to you tonight, to you tonight and that is I expect nothing less from you tonight, from you tonight. Go on save your scissors, save your scissors, save your scissors.

So far we’ve lost focus. Lets just concentrate on words that could mean everything. On nights like this, we drink ourselves dry and make promises without intention. So fortunate that this was brought up, the last time. As I recall, I can’t hold up your every expectation. On nights like this,
we drink ourselves dry and make promises without intention. My God, is this what we’ve become?
Living parodies of love and loss, can we really be all that lost? So fortunate that this was brought up, the last time. As I recall, I can’t hold up your every expectation. One moment to another I am restless. Seems making love forever can often risk your heart. And I cannot remember when I was this messed up. In service of another I am beautiful.

Song | Lipstick

Album | Get Better
When you wear lipstick, I always want to kiss you, but you use your lipstick as an excuse not to kiss me. You prefer to do it in the morning, when you have morning breath, or at noon when you have coffee breath. Maybe I should wear lipstick too, maybe I should wear lipstick too, maybe I should wear lipstick too. Maybe I should, maybe I should,

Band | The Story So Far
Album | Under Soil And Dirt
Say what you need to say for the last time. State all the premises figuring you’ll be just fine. So I’ll get mine you get yours and if we’re both happy it’s settled forevermore. Holding the impression of a man when I was still a boy. Said no regrets but it’s hard not to feel any remorse. I’m still debating whether I have even found the source. Of all my discomfort and blunt discourse. But I know what I want and don’t need what I get. I invest my ideas but get swallowed in debt. And the only release is to yell and to sweat. Until my clothes are soaking wet. Stay under my skin. Tear me limb from limb. Plague me to an end. I can’t believe I always thought I would be there for you. For now I’ll learn and settle for less. Shut my eyes and get some rest. Feel the pulse beneath this sunken chest. And maybe one day I can be there for you. Isn’t it true that if it hadn’t been for me you’d still have no place to fall. And all this time I thought I knew. When I had no idea at all. All is fair in love and war. You have your gifts some say they’re poor. But I don’t care about any of that anymore. Let us depart and return when we have grown some more. I wish I could say that I’ve seen this before. The depth of the bottom the taste of the floor. It leaves me restless and tired and sore. But you won’t break my mind just yet. I battle this alone. I don’t want to haunt you. I just want to grieve. I don’t want to haunt you. I just want to leave.
