May 2010
I’ve got a house in the back of my head, but I can’t find a permanent resident ‘cause the market’s down and the area’s not so good these days. I’ve got a watch, but I don’t have time. I’ve got a road and it leads to decadence, but a dead-end sign waits down the line. I’ll leave my footprints for the evidence. So, take my life, I’ll hand it to you. And you can try on my clothes, but you can’t fill these shoes. On a silver platter your wish came true. See, your heart of gold turned platinum. You can take my life, but you can’t take it with you. More long days and fleeting nights. I tell them, “Wake me under flashing lights ‘cause I’m a brand name bought and sold.” They say a face for fame is a crying shame because to face the crowd is to play their game. And I can play a little too rough now and again. You drank the poison and I let you in to take my life. I’ll hand it to you. And you can try on my clothes, but you can’t fill these shoes. On a silver platter your wish came true. See your heart of gold turn platinum. You can take my life, but you can’t take it with you. You drank the poison and I let you in. Would you trade that heart of gold for a minute in my skin?

Hey, girl, you know you drive me crazy. One word puts the rhythm in my hand. Still I’ll never understand why you hang around. I see what’s going down. Cover up with make-up in the mirror. Tell yourself it’s never gonna happen again. You cry alone and then he swears he loves you. Do you feel like a man when you push her around? Do you feel better now, as she falls to the ground? Well, I’ll tell you my friend, one day this world’s going to end. As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found. A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect. Every action in this world will bear a consequence. If you wade around forever you will surely drown. I see what’s going down. I see the way you go and say you’re right again. Say you’re right again. Heed my lecture. Face down in the dirt she said, “This doesn’t hurt.” She said, “I’ve finally had enough.” One day she will tell you that she has had enough. It’s coming ‘round again. Do you feel like a man when you push her around? Do you feel better now, as she falls to the ground? Well, I’ll tell you my friend, one day this world’s going to end. As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found. Face down in the dirt she said, “This doesn’t hurt.” She said, “I’ve finally had enough.”
“Hey, Beau. You are a fucking liar. You are worthless. I never want to ever talk to you or see you again. So, go fuck yourself. Fuck you.”
(Does anyone else really want to punch something - preferably this madwoman’s face - every time they hear this, or is it just me? Yeah, I didn’t think so. Kudos to Beau for putting this on the album. Made her so mad she want to sue him. She want’s to sue him for what exactly? for breaking up with him? I don’t think that’s his fault. End of rant. Don’t mean to hurt anyone’s feelings with this thing.)
I watched the sun again. It’s leaving now. I’ve spent all night long trying to figure out what I’ve lost and what I’ve failed when my feet won’t hit the ground. Trying to make it starting over. And will we ever love again? Hey baby, are you alone tonight? How can we make it? Hey baby, looks like you were wrong. It’s never too late. Too late. So, here we are again, to make some sense of it all. All these sudden changes. Maybe things are not so different. Rearranging pieces like it’s all we know. It’s all we know, let it go. I can’t put it together, what we’ve lost. The pieces keep falling one by one. ‘Cause this life has us holding on for tomorrow then it’s gone. Fall tomorrow, then I’m gone. Hey baby, it looks like you were wrong. How can we make it? Take it all, leave this place behind. There’s no one else tonight. Tonight.
(Note: I may have changed these a bit, as I do with most of the lyrics that I post on here, but I write them up so they make sense to me and so I can relate to them better. So if I change a word or two I know I’m doing it.)
Look into my eyes. Tell me you’re alive. Look into my eyes. Can you hear me now? Can you hear us now? Speaking the words that would never cross your mind. Can you see us now? Hope you fail and are forced to bury the bodies. And you can’t live without it. I’m in your head. I won’t forget. Your love is dead and you’ve got nothing left. Your promises have all been broken. Surely as day, we’re so better off. Surely as day, you’re on. Can you hear us now? Speaking the words that would never cross your mind. Can you see us now? Hope you fail and are forced to bury the bodies. And you can’t live without it. And you can’t breathe without it. Don’t try so hard. You’re a liar, you don’t need to breathe. You said “we’re done.” We see right through you. Can you hear us now? Speaking the words that would never cross your mind. Can you see us now? Hope you fail and are forced to bury the bodies. And you can’t live without it. And you can’t breathe without it.
I’ll say “Hi”, but not reply to the letters that you write because I’ve found some piece of mind. You’re only as tall as your heart will let you be and you’re only as small as the world will make you seem. When the going gets tough and you think that you may fall. Just look on the bright side you’re roughly six feet tall.
Love those lyrics. Except, I’m roughly five feet tall…
I’ve been trying to write songs for years and have gotten nowhere. Recently, I have made some progress. Now, to come up with some half-decent melodies and put it all together :)
Just thought I’d tell you.
