-yellowcard
It was in the march of the winter I turned seventeen that I bought those pills I thought
I would need. And I wrote a letter to my family. Said it's not your fault and you've been good to me. Just lately I've been
feeling like I don't belong...Like the ground's not mine to walk upon. I'd prefer to be remembered as a smiling face, not
this wreck that's taken its place. So please forgive what I have done. No you can't stay mad at the setting sun. Cause
we all get tired, I mean eventually there is nothing left to do but sleep.
-bright eyes
it feels like I'm falling through a hole in my heart falling through a hole in my
heart. don't try to reach for nothing at all.

a bunch of bad songs

"Lover I Don't Have To Love"-
Bright Eyes
I picked you out Of a crowd to talk to you Said
I liked your shoes You said thanks can I follow you? So it's up the stairs And out of view No prying eyes I
poured some wine I asked your name you asked the time Now it's two o'clock, the club is closed we're up the block Your
hands on me Pressing hard against your jeans Your tongue in my mouth Trying to keep the words from coming out You
didn't care to know Who else may have been you before I want a lover I don't have to love I want a girl who's to
sad to give a fuck Where's the kid with the chemicals? I thought he said to meet me here but I'm not sure I got
the money if you got the time You said it feels good I said I'll give it a try Then my mind went dark We both forgot
where your car was parked Let's just take the train I'll meet up with the band in the morning Bad actors with bad
habits Some sad singers They just play tragic And the phone's ringing And the van's leaving Let's just
keep touching Let's just keep keep singing I want a lover I don't have to love I want a boy who's so drunk he doesn't
talk Where's the kid with the chemicals I got a hunger and I can't seem to get full I need some meaning I can memorize The
kind I have always seems to slip my mind But you but you You write such pretty words But life's no story book Love
is an excuse to get hurt And to hurt "Do you like to hurt?" "I do! I do!" "Then hurt me."
"Konstantine" -Something
Corporate
I can't imagine all the people that you know And the places that you go When the lights are
turned down low And I don't understand All the things you've seen But I'm slipping in between You and your big...
dreams it's always you and my big dreams
And you tell me That it's over Wake up lying in a patch of four leaf
clover And your restless And I'm naked You've got to get out You can't stand to see me shaking no, could you
let me go I didn't think so
and you don't want to be here in the future So you say the present's just a pleasant Interruption
to the past And you don't want to look much closer 'Cause you're afraid to find out all the hope That you had sent
into the sky by now had... crashed and it did because of me
And then you bring me home Afraid to find out that
you're alone, no And I'm sleeping in your living room But we don't have much room To live
And I had these
dreams, in them I learned to play guitar Maybe cross the country Become a rockstar And there was hope in me That
I could take you there But damn you're so young But I don't think I care and if I hurt you then i'm sorry please
don't think that this is easy
And then you bring me home 'Cause we both know what its like to be alone, no And
I'm dreaming in your living room But we don't have much room To live
And Konstantine is walking down the stairs Doesn't
she look good Standing in her underwear? And I was thinking, what I was thinking But we've been drinking And it
doesn't get me anywhere
My Konstantine came walking down the stairs And all that I could do Was touch her long
blond hair And I've been thinking It hurts me thinking That these nights when we were drinking No they never got
us anywhere, no
This is because I can spell konfusion with a K And I can like it It's to dying in anothers arms and
why i had to try it It's to jimmy eat world and those nights in my car when the first star you see may not be
a star I'm not your star? Isn't that what you said what you thought this song meant you thought this song meant
And
if this is what it takes just to lie with my mistakes and live with what I did to you All the hell I put you through I
always catch the clock it's 11:11 And now you want to talk it's not hard to dream You'll always be my Konstantine My
Konstantine
They'll never hurt you like I do No, They'll never hurt you like I do No, No, No, No, No, No, No,
No
This is to a girl who got into my head with all these pretty things she did Hey Baby, You know that you keep
me up in bed It's to a girl who got into my head with all the fucked up things I did Hey Maybe Baby, You could keep
me up in bed My Konstantine
Spin Around me like a Dream We played out on this movie screen And i said, did
you know I missed you Did you know I missed you Did you know I missed you Did you know I missed you Did you know
I missed you Did you know I missed you Did you know I missed you
I miss you
And then you bring me home And
we'll go to sleep but this time not alone, no No, And you'll kiss me in your living room, oh I know you miss me in your
living room Cause these nights I think maybe that I miss you in my living room We don't have much room I said, does
anyboy need that room? Because we all need a little more room To live
...My Konstantine
