BILLY TALENT LYRICS
"Voices
Of Violence"
Don't wait for, a knight in shining armor
Your savior's, reflected in the mirror
These flowers,
have grown from bloodstains on the ground
Go rake them, leaves off your grass and my grave
The fact is, everyone bleeds
when they shave
There's no use, so dont deny we're just the same
We'll take it back (Broken Dagger! Southern Swagger!)
Voices
of violence, voices of violence
We'll take it back (Broken Dagger! Southern Swagger!)
Voice of violence, voices of violence
These
cowboys, will ride off in the sunset
Once their toys, have turned another profit
Backfire, these smoking guns will
never rest
Unleash the, skeletons from the closet
These strangers, are friends that you've never met
They'll send
them, sympathies with a hallmark card
We'll take it back (Broken Dagger! Southern Swagger!)
Voices of violence,
voices of violence
We'll take it back (Broken Dagger! Southern Swagger!)
Voice of violence, voices of violence
Even
after im dead and buried
I'll still remember, I'l still remember
Even after im dead and buried
I'll still remember,
I'l still remember
Even after im dead and buried
I'll come back for fighting, I'll come back fighting
We'll
take it back (Broken Dagger! Southern Swagger!)
Voices of violence, voices of violence
We'll take it back (Broken Dagger!
Southern Swagger!)
Voice of violence, voices of violence
Voices of violence will always be heard
Voices of violence,
voices of violence
voices of violence will always be heard
Voices of violence, voices of violence
"Standing In The Rain"
My head, it hurts
Each day it's
getting worse
My looks and smile
Have now become my curse
Tight lips, red skirt
The neverending street
Big
car, little man
My lover for a fee
So if you see me will you just drive on by?
Or will I catch the twinkle inside
your eye?
And if you 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
Raindrops runnin' through
my veins
My head it hurts
Each day its getting worse
No sun, my room
Has now become my herse
Cold sores,
im beat
Got bruises on my feet
My pride, these men
Have taken it from me
So if you see me will you just drive
on by?
Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye?
And if you 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
Raindrops runnin'through my veins
Standing in the rain
Milk carton mug-shot baby
Missing
since 1983
Standing in the rain
20 years of dirty needles
Raindrops runnin' through my veins
So if you see
me will you just drive on by?
Or will I catch the twinkle inside your eye?
And if you want me well I guess i want you
Oh
pretty baby how could you?
Standing in the rain
Standing in the rain
Standing in the rain
Milk carton mug-shot
baby
Mother, I have lost my way
Standing in the rain
Milk carton mug-shot baby
Missing since 1983
Standing
in the rain
20 years of dirty needles
Raindrops runnin' though my veins
Standing in the rain
Mother, I have lost
my way
Standing in the rain
Mother, I have lost my way
"Line And Sinker"
What you see is what you get (don't you
know)
Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker
Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)
Hard to get a grip
with all these broken fingers
Today I don't feel pretty
And i'm tired of trying to fit right in
Don't think they're
just so great
Cause being great must suck
We don't always see the bright side
We all need ego suicide
You
hung my id today
But I have licked my wounds and carried on
Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss
my chimney
Reality is truly scaring me
So stand up straight and firmly say
What you see is what you get (don't
you know)
Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker
Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)
Hard to get
a grip with all these broken fingers
My heart is in the right place
So wipe that smurk right off your face
Don't
make me feel like that
Cause that's just plain not nice
We don't always see the bright side
And I lied when I
said I was fine
You slapped my face today
But I have licked my wounds and carried on
Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa
seemed to miss my chimney
Reality is truly scaring me
So stand up straight and firmly say
What you see is what
you get (don't you know)
Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker
Look at me and don't forget (don't you know)
Hard
to get a grip with all these broken fingers
Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss my chimney
You
stole my luck from me
And now my fortune cookie's empty
Cause you came and you stole it all from me
So stand up straight
and firmly say
What you see is what you get (don't you know)
Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker
Look
at me and don't forget (don't you know)
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
"River Below"
Rejected...since day one
My name
is...bastard son
I've been damned...so many times I've lost count!
Blue collar...working man
Devices...masterplan
Bi-polar...with
a mental side arm
I'm sick and I'm twisted
I'm broken you can't fix it
Don't make me, cause I'll do it
Red
button and we'll all go
Into the river below...I'm running from the inferno...
They'll think i'm insane but you'll
all know my name!
Into the river below...I'm running from the inferno...
I'll take all the blame, the front page and
the fame!
Contraption...made up of
Nuts and bolts...creates the
New monster...to burn your family tree down!
Tick-tocking...times
up now
Split second...the world frowns
Lonely heart...never had nobody!
I'm sick and I'm twisted
I'm broken
you can't fix it
Don't make me, cause I'll do it
Red button and we'll all go
Into the river below...I'm running
from the inferno...
They'll think i'm insane but you'll all know my name!
Into the river below...I'm running from the
inferno...
I'll take all the blame, the front page and the fame!
I'll take all the blame
The front page and the
fame
Into the river below
Into the river below
Into the river below
Into the river below
Into the river

They'll think i'm insane but you'll all know my name!
Into the river below...I'm
running from the inferno...
I'll take all the blame, the front page and the fame!
Yeah I'll take all the blame
The
front page and the fame
But you'll all know my name
And they'll think I'm insane
But you'll all know my name
But

"The Ex"
Well, I looked at her face and then I knew she changed,
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
So
I sat in my room for 27 days,
No she never called, I had something to say!
No she never called, I had something to
say!
I don't know much and I don't know how...
Why would she put me through such torture,
I would have given
my life for her,
She was the one that knocked me over,
Now I'm alone sitting on the corner
Well, I heard she's
great and her new boyfriend's lame,
She can go to hell I'll never be the same!
She can go to hell I'll never be the
same!
And these open wounds will heal with time they say,
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
My
heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
I don't know much and I don't know how...
Why would she put
me through such torture,
I would have given my life for her,
She was the one that knocked me over,
Now I'm alone
sitting on the corner
"Hands Down"Dashboard
confessional
Breathe in for luck,
breathe in so deep,
this air is blessed,
you share with
me.
This night is wild,
so calm and dull,
these hearts they race,
from self control.
Your legs are smooth,
as
they graze mine,
we're doing fine,
we're doing nothing at all.
My hopes are so high,
that your kiss might
kill me.
So won't you kill me,
so I die happy.
My heart is yours to fill or burst,
to break or bury,
or wear
as jewelery,
which ever you prefer.
The words are hushed lets not get busted;
just lay entwined here, undiscovered.
Safe
in here from all the stupid questions.
"hey did you get some?"
Man, that is so dumb.
Stay quiet, stay near, stay
close they can't hear...
so we can get some.
My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me.
So won't you
kill me, so I die happy.
My heart is yours to fill or burst,
to break or bury, or wear as jewelery,
which ever you
prefer.
Hands down this is the best day I can ever remember,
I'll always remember the sound of the stereo,
the
dim of the soft lights,
the scent of your hair that you twirled in your fingers
and the time on the clock when we realized
it's so late
and this walk that we shared together.
The streets were wet
and the gate was locked so I jumped it,
and
I let you in.
And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist
and you kissed me like you meant it.
And I knew
that you meant it,
that you meant it,
that you meant it,
and I knew,
that you meant it,
that you meant it.
"The Reason"Hoobastank
I'm
not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things
to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change
who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something
I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one
who catches all your tears
Thats why i need you to hear
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A
reason to start over new
and the reason is You [x4]
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those
things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To
change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you
I've found a reason to show
A side
of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you
"Beautiful Soul"Jesse McCartney

"Amazed"Lonestar
Every time our eyes meet
This feeling inside
me
Is almost more than I can take
Baby when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me
away
I've never been this close to anyone or anything
I can hear your thoughts
I can see your dreams
I don't
know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With
you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you
The smell of your skin
The
taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me
Baby you surround me
You touch every
place in my heart
Oh it feels like the first time every time
I wanna spend the whole night in your eyes
I don't
know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With
you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you
Every little thing that
you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever
and ever
Every little thing that you do
Oh, every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you
Bad Religion"The Empire
Strikes First"
We strike first
And we're unrehearsed
Here we go again
To stage the greatest show
on heaven and earth
Come on, get your money's worth
Don't wanna live
(can't live)
Don't wanna give
(can't
give)
Don't wanna be
(won't be)
E-M-P-I-R-E
Don't wanna live
Don't wanna be
E-M-P-I-R-E
We're
comin on fast
And we're built to last
We stumbled once in 'Nam
Now we're glad to finally say
Those days have
passed
Tell me how long can it last!
Don't wanna live
(can't live)
Don't wanna give
(can't give)
Don't
wanna be

E-M-P-I-R-E
Don't wanna live
Don't wanna be
E-M-P-I-R-E
We just started out
You don't need to be afraid
Yeah you deserve two minutes hate
Well, we spit and we cursed and our bleeding
hearts burst
But even ten million souls
Marching in February couldn't stop the worst,
Couldn't reverse
Don't

Don't wanna give
Don't wanna be
E-M-P-I-R-E
Don't wanna live
Don't wanna be
E-M-P-I-R-E
I can't live

Bad Religion"Social
Suicide"
Right now
Well it's finally time to face my fears
Gunna get the hell out of here
And create
a fresher atmosphere
But the consequences clear
There's a furnace set on high
And a yearning undefined
But
it's time to turn the tide
It's social suicide
Like you
Perserverence is a useless tool
Just a patron on a
ship of fools
Feigning interest in the cast and crew
Why you've broken every single rule
There's a furnace set
on high
And a yearning undefined
But it's time to turn the tide
It's social suicide
Shadows entertain the
unwashed masses
Scholars explain their numb reactions
I don't even know if I can ever find truth
but I'm sure it
won't come from following you
There's a furnace set on high
And a yearning undefined
But it's time to turn the
tide
It's social suicide
A.F.I."The Last Kiss"
Hung
in your room, swaying, hoping only that you'll see.
All by myself, I'm alone in such poor company.
The deeper I think,
the deeper I seem to sink, I can't stop the insects that are feeding,
pull the needles from beneath my skin. I broke myself,
shattered, tied a bow around every piece.
You'll love the eyes. Have they always shown so vacantly? The more I show the
less you'll want to know.
I can't stop the insects that are feeding, pull the needles from beneath my skin.
Now I'm
on display. I am becoming. Hurt myself today. It's all for you.
Do you like what I'm becoming? Cut myself today. It's all
for you.
I part the night, flashing, approaching as I watch you flee.
Pushed through your panes. Seems I've landed quite
uncomfortably.
But as I pass through souls of broken glass I can't stop the insects that are feeding.
Pull the needles
from beneath my skin.
Daniel Bedingfield"Gotta
Get Thru This"
If only I could get through this
I get through this
I gotta get through this
I
gotta get through this
I gotta make it, gonna make, gonna make it through
I'm gotta get through this
I gotta get
through this
I gotta take my, gotta take my mind off you
Give me just a second and I'll be all right
Surely one
more moment couldn't break my heart
Give me 'til tomorrow then I'll be okay
Just another day and then I'll hold you
tight
When your love is pouring like the rain
I close my eyes and it it's gone again
When will I get the chance
to say I love you
I pretend that you're already mine
Then my heart ain't breaking every time
I look into your eyes
If
only I could get through this
If only I could get through this
If only I could get through this
God, God gotta help
me get through this
I gotta get through this
I gotta get through this
I gotta make it, gonna make, gonna make
it through
Said I'm gonna get through this
I gotta get through this
I gotta take my, gotta take my mind off you
Give
me just a second and I'll be all right
Surely one more moment couldn't break my heart
Give me 'til tomorrow then I'll
be okay
Just another day and then I'll hold you tight
When your love is pouring like the rain
I close my eyes
and it it's gone again
When will I get the chance to say I love you
I pretend that you're already mine
Then my heart
ain't breaking every time
I look into your eyes
If only I could get through this
If only I could get through
this
If only I could get through this
God, God gotta help me get through this
If only I could get through this
God,
God gotta help me get through this
If only I could get through this
God, God gotta help me get through this
If
only I could get through this...
Dashboard Confessional"Screaming
Infidelities"
I'm missing your bed
I never sleep
Avoiding the
spots where we'd have to speak,
And this bottle of beast
Is taking me home
[1.]
I'm cuddling close
To
blankets and sheets
But you're not alone, and you're not discreet
Make sure I know who's taking you home.
I'm
reading your note over again
There's not a word that I comprehend,
Except when you signed it
"I will love you always
and forever."
[2.]
Well As for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs
And sit alone and wonder
How you're
making out
But as for me, I wish that I was anywhere with anyone
Making out.
I'm missing your laugh
How did
it break?
And when did your eyes begin to look fake?
I hope you're as happy as you 're pretending.
[1.]
I
am alone
In my defeat I wish I knew you were safely at home
I'm missing your bed
I never sleep
Avoiding the
spots where we'd have speak, and
This bottle of beast is taking me home.
[2.]
Your hair, it's everywhere.
Screaming
infidelities
And taking its wear.
[Repeat Four times]

Milian"Dip It Low"
Says he wants you
He says he needs you
It's real talk, then why not make him
wait for you
If he really wants you
If he really needs you
Really got to have you
Take your time and feel him

When he's a good boy
I mean a really really good boy
Why not let him lay with you
That's when you give it
to him good

Growin' old

3 doors down"Here without you"
A hundred days have
made me older
Since the last time that i saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And i don't think
i can look at this the same
But all these miles that seperate
Disappear now when i'm dreaming of your face
I'm
here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And i dream about you all the time
I'm
here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it's only you and me
The miles just keep
rollin'
As the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life was overrated
But i hope that it gets better
as we go
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And i dream
about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl its only
you and me
Everything i know,and anywhere i go
It gets hard but it wont take away my love
And when the last one
falls
When it's all said and done
It gets hard but it wont take away my love
I'm here without you baby
But
you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And i dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But
you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl its only you and me
