Break Up the Band

What’s this you’re telling me, oh no
Something that they’re selling me all right
Come on give me something to believe
Give me something that you just can’t see
Won’t you give me something that you think I’ll understand
What’s this inside of me all right
Tell you that’s they’ll lie to me all night
Baby give me somewhere I can go
Give me something that I’ll never know
Won’t you try to look at me again and tell me everything you can
I know that so far it’s so low
And you know it’s as far as we go
Why am I walking upside down
Why are you turning me around
Baby won’t you give me one last kiss
Try to pull the trigger just don’t miss
Come on just don’t roll your eyes when I want to make my final stand
How come they’re trying to cut me down
Tell me that I’m loud without a sound
Come on can’t you see that I’m a mess
All I want to do is take off your dress
Why don’t you just you smile at me and try to tell me that you understand
I know that so far it’s so low
And you know it’s as far as we go
Just don’t go and break up the band
When they’re still trying to be
Something only I can understand
Something just for me
Come on baby give me one last kiss
Try to pull the trigger just don’t miss
Come on just don’t roll your eyes when I try to make my final stand
I know that so far it’s so low
And you know it’s as far as we go

Parachute
02:58

This time I’m already gone for the night
The parachute
Just play it loud for while and you’ll
Stay true to your school
Want to turn it on
But it’s over now and seven years have gone
Got to take control
But the band broke up ‘cuz that’s just rock & roll
Her kick drum was already lost for a while
This parachute
Let’s fall and take it for a ride on the mile
And we’re tearing through
Want to turn it on
But it’s over now and seven years have gone
Got to take control
But the band broke up ‘cuz that’s just rock & roll
Locked down you pull the ripcord down again
Let down and taken for a fall
On hardwood floors the moon is yours but I still chase it uh huh
There’s no surprise left in the skies I want to save it uh up
Gonna turn me on
But it’s over now and seven years have gone
Got to take control
When the band breaks up I’m saved by rock & roll

Amplified Alive

I drove a million miles away to get you
And I have never even gone so far
I’d even break my heart this time to let you
The radio takes me home just like my car
I want to tell you something all the same
My speakers blown out even though you’ve changed
She sees me so obsessed and so insane
Amplified alive
I found a million ways to say forget you
And I have never tuned up my guitar
With fuzz and dirt delay ok I fret you
My broken hands will gladly wear the scars
I need to tell you something all the same
My speakers blown out even though you’ve changed
She sees me so obsessed and so insane
Amplified alive
I want to tell you something all the same
My speakers blown out even though you’ve changed
She sees me so obsessed and so insane
Amplified alive
Amplified alive
Amplified alive
Amplified alive

Gaslight
03:45
|

You better say something before she steals a minute
You better say something before she knows
You better say something before she knows what’s in it
And tries to find out where the gaslight goes
And it goes
And it goes
You’d better do something before she starts to spill it
And hits the gas right where the green light glows
You’d better do something ‘cuz she’s a mile a minute
You’d better find out where the gaslight goes
And it goes
And it goes
I want to tell you something with absolutely nothing to say
You locked away your secrets and tried to hail a grievance today
You want to be a victim you tell me while you still get your way
Instead I’ll tell you honey the blue sky isn’t nothing but gray
You better find out where the gray girl goes to fill it
You better find out what the way girl knows
You better find something before she spends a minute
And tries to find out where the gaslight goes
And it goes
And it goes
You better get down where the black heart tries to spill it
You better get down where the green grass grows
You better dig down where the deep dirt tried to mill it
You’d better find out where the gaslight goes
And it goes
And it goes
I want to tell you something with absolutely nothing to say
You locked away your secrets and tried to hail a grievance today
You want to be a victim you tell me while you still get your way
Instead I’ll tell you honey the blue sky isn’t nothing but gray

Lead Singer Mutiny
02:27

With a cold hard stare she takes my guns far away
It’s not for long she starts to say, just for today
Everybody knows I'm insane
The record store is closed so we take it day by day
I can feel my black heart starting to climb and tear away the lines
Every time I stand and complain
You try to turn my mic off on me once again
I can hear the rhythm section starting to sing with all the grief I bring
And everybody knows
When she’s scared she starts to burn to light my way
When it all comes down I wait my turn, she comes to say
Everybody knows I'm insane
The record store is closed so we take it day by day
I can feel my black heart starting to climb and tear away the lines
Every time I stand and complain
You try to turn my mic off on me once again
I can hear the rhythm section starting to sing with all the grief I bring
And everybody knows

Barely There
03:37

Deconstruct the value
Calculate the fall
Another breakdown that she’ll barely survive
Now I've heard it all
Sometimes I think about it
To make sense of it all
The opening act deep into first bloom
Crashing down the hall
Let it go, you’ve gone so low
Just let it go, they’ll never know
The winter sun's the brightest
Now I take the cue
I shield my eyes when morning first arrives
With nothing else to do
With everything demolished
My eyes turned toward the sun
I walked away with nothing to say
And dropped the smoking gun
Let it go, you’ve gone so low
Just let it go, they’ll never know
I write it down but it makes no sense
When you’re standing at the door
I drop my hammer but stand on guard
I never use it anymore
I’m barely there
I’m barely there
I’ve often tried to right this
Reflections of my skull
I only surmised that I merely survived
With nothing left but the lull
Let it go, you’ve gone so low
Just let it go, they’ll never know
I write it down but it makes no sense
When you’re standing at the door
I drop my hammer but stand on guard
I never use it anymore
I’m barely there
I’m barely there
I write it down but it makes no sense
When you’re standing at the door
I drop my hammer but stand on guard
I never use it anymore
I’m barely there
I’m barely there

How Many Times
03:17
|
|||
|
How many times do I have to say I’m sorry?
When I still tried to save it for you now
You never bothered to tell me that you lost it
That’s when I knew that it was coming down
When I try to say that I don’t ever want to waste my time again
That’s when I still thought they’d ask me how it ends
And she comes today to say that it’s all right until the very end
And then she says, at last I’m on the mend
How many times did you tell me that you saw me
All broken down he said without a sound
They only wanted to tell you what the cost is
That’s when I knew they’d take it underground
When I try to say that I don’t ever want to waste my time again
That’s when I still thought they’d ask me how it ends
And she comes today to say that it’s all right until the very end
And then she says, at last I’m on the mend
It goes to show what we all know that somewhere I
Can find it hard to take it all away, so they say
When I try to say that I don’t ever want to waste my time again
That’s when I still thought they’d ask me how it ends
And she comes today to say that it’s all right until the very end
And then she says, at last I’m on the mend

Nothing
03:06
|

|
The present unwrapped today, but you’re so far away
Frozen in time no matter what they ever say
The Wi-Fi is broken and we’re wasting your time
They think this belongs to them but it’s only mine on this day
And you said all along
That the light is so strong
When we sit and we talk about nothing
So far away son, I’ll help you see this through
I locked away all my guns, there’s nothing left for me to do
The sound of the mourning when you stand before the light
You tell me it’s all turning blue but it’ll be all right it’s true
And you said all along
That the light is so strong
So we sit and we talk about nothing
And you said all along
That the light is so strong
When we sit and we talk about nothing

Secrets in Reverse
03:20
|

|
She whispered this but you know their secrets
While baby's breath and washed-up regrets call you
You save it all bunched up inside you
Hide away in time to find it all new
This time I’m never gonna talk
I hide away with nothing to say at all
She laughed and said, You see right through me?
A thousand years means nothing to me at all
You whisper this but oh so softly
And keep your secrets and then you watch me fall
This time I’m never gonna talk
I hide away with nothing to say at all
And in my dreams I run, but I can’t go
Stared into the sun until they’ll know
This time I’m never gonna talk
I hide away with nothing to say at all

My Nightmare
04:01
|
|||
|
When you say that you want to crash my car again
And you try to scream but then you bleed, a vampire ‘til the end
You come to tell me you led me back to fight again
Just when I could see, you blinded me and broke my back for them,
But I know
You close your eyes again, but you’re gone in time for me
My nightmare’s on again, and they’ll never let me sleep
Her knife’s so cold again, and you know it’s gonna sting
It’s almost dawn again, and I know
This time you let me disguise this thing inside again
But you’re telling me what I can see—they’ll rip right through and then
So now it’s fight or flight you say good night in spite of me
But now I can see, blood rained on me and chilled me ‘til the end
To the bone
You close your eyes again, but you’re gone in time for me
My nightmare’s on again, and they’ll never let me sleep
Her knife’s so cold again, and you know it’s gonna sting
It’s almost dawn again, and I know
You close your eyes again, but you’re gone in time for me
My nightmare’s on again, and they’ll never let me sleep
Her knife’s so cold again, and you know it’s gonna sting
It’s almost dawn again, and I know
