Текст песни:

Pregnant teens on the Barton street bus
Hard-up people living off crust
And there’s a beat-up town car - it’s starting to ruse
Hard soles are kicking up dust
Half a million people living in the corpse of the brown brick 50’s
To the north, all the small town outcasts are now big city bourgeoisie

All the boys in the halfway houses
Wave to the girls of Emerald Street

Our calloused fingers, blood red on the brick - but we hold on
We’ll never falter, though they want us to slip - we hold on

The desperate, downtown stealing bikes
Drunks in the village are picking fights

So, police like the streets to read them their rights
No controlling hot summer nights
The sun goes down on the edge of town, at the end of everyday
We sit and watch the stacks, on fire, to the east across the bay

All the boys in the halfway houses
Wave to the girls of Emerald Street

Our calloused fingers, blood red on the brick - but we hold on
We’ll never falter, though they want us to slip - we hold on

There’s something in the church belfry
On the corner of Victoria and king
And it screams out into the night
It sings this city’s plight

All the boys in the halfway houses
Wave to the girls of Emerald Street

Our calloused fingers, blood red on the brick - but we hold on
We’ll never falter, though they want us to slip - we hold on

Текст песни:

Hey kids, we got a new white devil
And it goes in your fucking nose

Story goes

Watch Out!

Glorify, glamorize
Try to forget your sunken eyes
Your dead fad is a disaster
Your fashion is my fucking cancer
Not so fun, nose is sore
Bloody Kleenex all over the floor
But don′t worry, who gives a shit?
All your friends will think you′re really hip

GOOOO!
GOOOO!

Your dead fad is a fucking disaster

GOOOO!

Addiction is in, I guess addiction is in, yeah [7x]
Addiction is in, I guess addiction is in this year

You look so good
Convulsing on the floor, ya sugar!
And the blood from your nose
Matches your lipstick shade!

GOOOO! [3x]
what a fucking nightmare
GOOOO! [3x]

Look what you have become
White devil, white devil, white devil [3x]

White devil [8x]

GOO!

Текст песни:

"So make sure you love like you′ve never been hurt
and when you dance, dance like there′s no one watching you"

′Cause you can waste your time, redefining the day that music died
Or you can spend your life, guilt free and ostracized
′Cause all the fashion in the world can′t save you now
It′s something, I′ll write it down for you

′Cause this shit is not about pants
And this shit′s not about shirts
And this shit is definitly not about hair
This shit is having a good fucking time
Maybe music isn′t dead
Maybe music isn′t dead
Maybe we all just forgot what it fucking sounded like
They forgot!
They forgot!

′Cause you can waste your time, redefining the day that music died
And you can spend your life, guilt free and ostracized
′Cause all the fashion in the world can′t save you now
It′s something, I′ll write it down for you

My greatest gift to you
is a dance floor
free from insecurity

Текст песни:

Go!
Strange things happen in the nighttime hour
Yesterday′s buds are tomorrow′s flowers
Those who speak numbers, refuse the great forgiver
And powerful men raise their hands and deliver
All the superstitions to which we all cling
While high minds in Geneva ponder e8 vs. string
The sun hides itself concealing its grin
And waits for the dawn to reveal itself again.

Oh young cardinals
Nesting in the trees
Oh hear our songs
Reign your innocence on me

One, two, three, four!

Strange things happen in the nighttime hours
White tails graze and wolves devour
Ghosts of old loves are blowing through the pines
Nicotine babies being born with no spines
The god of the sea is swinging his trident
We stoke our fires with the bones of tyrants
The sun, it retreats through the dust and the din
And waits for the dawn to reveal itself again

Oh young cardinals
Nesting in the trees
Oh hear our songs
Reign your innocence on me

Young cardinals take flight
Return to nest in the black of night
There are things you were not meant to know

Young cardinals take flight
Return to nest in the black of night
There are things you were not meant to know

Oh young cardinals
Nesting in the trees
Oh hear our songs
Reign your innocence on me

Oh young cardinals
Oh young cardinals
Oh young cardinals
Oh young cardinals
Oh

Текст песни:

So this is continuous happiness
You know, I always
Imagined it something more
With the right drapes, the right paints
The right frames, this could really work
What a great day to spend indoors

Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up

In a hail of sparks
And a tangle of wires
Everything went wrong

So where has all the day gone?
And why are my lungs aching when I breathe?
Is there something wrong with the heat?
Why am I so cold?
And my heart feels sick
And it hurts when I speak
And this is not what I hoped for

Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up
Wake, wake up, wake, wake up

Was this what we hoped for?

Was this what we hoped for?
Was this what we hoped for?

Was this what we hoped for?

Was this what we hoped for?
Was this?

Текст песни:

I said, "cover me if there is a fire,
′Cause I want you to burn first"
She screamed at me, "I want to be desired"
I said easy girl, "I know it hurts"

Let′s all give thanks That I am a liar,
′Cause I′ve got a feeling I just might get worse
Now there′s nothing wrong with you
I′m just tired
And im in a mood for a brand new curse

You burn first,
You burn first,
You burn first,
You burn first

Cover me if there is a fire,
′Cause I want you to burn first
She screamed at me "I want to be desired"
I said easy girl, "I know it hurts"

Let′s all give thanks That I am a liar
′Cause I′ve got a feeling I just might get worse
Now there′s nothing wrong with you
I just grow tired
And im in the mood for a brand new curse

Текст песни:

They are the nameless victims of a generation lost
Searching for somewhere to exist
Held captive by our mistakes
Weak and unable to resist

Resentful minds have ruled too long
You and old, weak and strong

We will drag our hindsight through the twilight of this era
To where our freedom reigns and the old thought is laid to dust
Let the philistines wallow in their decadence
While the enlightened minds usher in the dawning of a new

We are heading for the sun
We are
We are heading for the sun

Time will come when we are all condemned
For the damage we have done
Held accountable for all
Battles lost, battles won

We are heading for the sun
We are
We are heading for the sun
And the earth will coil each year, getting closer to its end
What will our lesson be, when we are all ablaze?
That our benevolence was the start of our decay
Or that we did not learn from the mistakes of the past?

We are heading for the sun
We are
We are heading for the sun

Текст песни:

I, I guess, the only thing cheap to you was your friends
You can always make new friends
Oh well oh well
But when you sell them out will they be worth as much? (oh no)

Now this bridge is ashes
It might as well have never been built
It might as well have never been built
And the river that it crossed
Looks like an ocean now, looks like an ocean now

Times change and people change with them
Some people love to play the victim
(Love to play the victim)
You threw caution to the wind
Washed away these few last years for nothing
(Was it all for nothing)
Keep it on wax

Your not the only one
Who′s had to make sacrifices
Who′s had to make sacrifices
And time won′t heal shit
When you got your hands in my pocket
When you got your hands...

Kick, Kick, Kick
Scream, Scream, Scream
It wont change a goddamn thing
It don′t change a god damn thing
Kick, Kick, Kick
Scream, Scream, Scream

Kick, Kick, Kick
Scream, Scream, Scream
It wont change a goddamn thing
It don′t change a god damn thing
Kick, Kick, Kick
Scream, Scream, Scream

I, I guess, the only thing cheap to you is your friends
I guess, the only thing cheap to you is your friends
I, I guess, the only thing cheap to you is your friends
I guess, the only thing cheap to you is your friends

OOOHHH, what a fucking shame
OOOHHH, that you had to mess things up this bad

Times change and people change with them
Some people love to play the victim
(Love to play the victim)
You Threw caution to the wind
Washed away these few last years for nothing
(Was it all for nothing)

It′s gone, it′s gone
There′s nothing left
Keep it on wax
It′s gone, it′s gone
There′s nothing left
Keep it on wax

Текст песни:

Your mail′s not safe in this town
Your mail′s not safe in this town
Your mail′s not safe in this town
Your mail′s not safe in this town

I strike a red bird on your face
And pour the kerosene in your mouth
I watch the match fall down your throat
I burn all your precious bowels
I watch the smoke pour from every crack
And breathe in your secret lives
All your bills, pay, and welfare cheques
But I don′t think I can stay for long
There′s lots more mail that′s not yet ash

Your mail′s not safe in this town
Your mail′s not safe in this town
Your mail′s not safe in this town
Im taking this town back

I watch the smoke start to rise
One hundred homes
One hundred fires
Everything you own now burns away

This town is no longer mine
It′s fucked with me for the last time
How I wish that I could see your face

When the sky is streaked with plumes
Know that it′s my signature
Upon this wretched fucking city

Mailbox Arson
My sweet revenge

Mailbox Arson
My sweet revenge

I′ll strike a match and burn away-
Every tie that binds me to this place

I′ll strike a match and burn away-
Every tie that binds me to this place

I will strike a match and burn away-
Every tie that binds me to this place

Strike a match and burn away-
Every tie that binds me to this place

When the smoke clears,
You can consider us even

Your mail′s not safe in this town
Your mail′s not safe in this town
Your mail′s not safe in this town
Im taking this town back

I watch the smoke start to rise
One hundred homes
One hundred fires
Everything you own now burns away

This town is no longer mine
It′s fucked with me for the last time
How I wish that I could see your face

Текст песни:

ALRIGHT NOW!
Won′t you listen?

When I first met you, didn′t realize
I can′t forget you, for your surprise
you introduced me, to my mind
And left me wanting, you and your kind

I love you, Oh you know it

My life was empty, forever on a down
Until you took me, showed me around
My life is free now, my life is clear
I love you sweet leaf, though you can′t hear

Come on now, try it out

Straight people don′t know, what you′re about
They put you down and shut you out
you gave to me a new belief
and soon the world will love you sweet leaf

@ Alexisonfire

Текст песни:

I find myself concerned
For the common man, these days
Evil are the minds
That push the divide
Forced to live a life
In fear that his future is on the wane
Midnight regulations
Midnight regulations
Burns his candle down
Working to make ends meet
Old hearts, we need to mend
It’s time to start again
Fingers to the bone
Ready to admit defeat
Midnight regulations
Midnight

Brother! There is no charity
For the common man
When he is in need of relief

And now he’s hanging on
To his final stitch of faith
So, here’s to all the years
Of deaf ear fallen prayers
Rich men behind closed doors
Try to keep him in his place
Midnight regulations
Midnight regulations
Oh, all you common men
You need to fight for a new way
But what can be done
About the way things have become?
Palace walls dismantled
Brick by brick, you will have your day
Midnight regulations
Midnight

Brother! There is no charity
For the common man
When he is in need of relief

They say just hold onto your hope
But you know if you swallow your pride
You will choke

Brother! There is no charity
For the common man
When he is in need of relief

Midnight regulations

Текст песни:

Sifting through weathered photo albums
(Does it make a difference?)
Looking for gloriously aged polaroids
(This is the way it is)
(You think it really would make a difference? Would I hang on the beach in perfect black and hide?)
Of places you′ve never been.
(I broke through this hollow shell that once held me so tight I couldn′t breathe)
A place to accept you don′t exist
(Come with me, jump off the edge)

"Smile for the camera sweetheart. I really wanna immortalize the moment."
Just remember the first step in forgetting
Is destroying all the evidence.
With friends like you,
Who needs subtext?
Sub. Text. Sub. Text.

This is a .44 caliber love letter straight from my heart.

With a gun, make your shot.
Let′s hope for better shit.
(Straight {straight!} from {from!} my {my!} heart {heart!})
That reason for separation.
(Straight {straight!} from {from!} my {my!} heart {heart!})
Straight from... my... heart.
Christened by your bullet.
I′m losing patience.
Well I guess...
It′s my own fault.

Don′t re-mem-ber
Don′t re-mem-ber
Don′tttt
remember
Don′t!

Текст песни:

We greet each day with bloodshot eyes
The dirt of our labor still clingin’ to our hands
Filled with our warped intentions
The tread of our shoes filled with foreign sands
The sun laughs in all our faces
It shows a world that we can’t save
So now, armed with blades in hand
We cut a path from birth to grave

We don’t know where we’re going
But we know that we’re getting there

No rest for the blessed
Long life for the wicked

We don’t think like you think
And we move like no one moves
With a song on our lips, across the land
Born to traverse
We don’t think like you think
And we move like no one moves
With a song on our lips, across the land
Born to traverse

We don’t know where we’re going
But we know, we’re getting there

No rest for the blessed
Long life for the wicked

Like a car crash
Like a landmine
Like mixing drugs, we are dangerous

Like a snake’s tooth
Like thin ice
Like mixing blood, we are dangerous

No rest for the blessed
Long life for the wicked

Текст песни:

I′m not sure what′s worse
The waiting or the waiting room
"You′re next sir" becomes a cruel taunt to you
recycled air, the smell of sleep and disinfectant
Your god is a two door elevator

Do they even cure you
(cut me open drug me)
Or is it just to humour us before we die
(repair all my defects)
If only we could heal ourselves
We wouldn′t.. need to be hooked up to these machines

Whoa whoa whoa...

Let′s redefine (6x)
What it means to heal

Do they even cure you
(cut me open drug me)
Or is it just to humour us before we die
(repair all my defects)
If Only we could heal ourselves
We wouldn′t.. need to be hooked up to these machines

Whoa whoa whoa...

Текст песни:

I′m in a constant state of getting cut
So why don′t I feel anything?!

This is a violation

Maybe I forgot what it was like
Before it entered me

So this is what they call
Another endless night
So tired of believing
If this is wrong or right
I think this cause is lost
I wish that I could sleep
I feel like some kind of shadow
Another slave to the weak
Imagine if we lived
Under the weather
We would never be found
Never discovered
If everything goes wrong
If it′s one more endless night
You know there always tomorrow
And tomorrow (x8)
you know there′s always tomorrow
Tomorrow

And this knife, this knife
This is my most
This is my most
This is my most
Important appendage
This is my most
This is my most
This is my most
Important appendage

Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Tomorrow

So now that your whole world
Has gone up into flames
This night is still never ending
Do you think you′re still safe?
Since everything went wrong
We were discovered
But this time there′s no tomorrow
And tomorrow(x4)
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
And this knife! This knife!

Текст песни:

Everybody on the count of three
Accept crime 1-2-3
Bethlehem to Galilee
Accept crime 1-2-3

Between the sheets, the voyeur watches you
And each caress takes us one step further from his tired truth
Say, we will be free to use our bodies as we please
We will be free to use our bodies as we please

Say hey! There′s no police!
Hey, there′s no police between two beating hearts
Hey! There′s no police!
Hey, there′s no police between two beating hearts

Let the clergy damn our every emotion
Until every impulse is a revolution
And will we know to bring good, we′ll let it carry us through
It′s your chance to use your disobedience
We will say:
We will be free to use our bodies as we please
We will be free to use our bodies as we please

Say hey! There′s no police!
Hey, there′s no police between two beating hearts
Hey! There′s no police!
There′s no police, no police between two beating hearts

I′ll feel no guilt
I won′t repent
Day to day I accept crime
And that′s for me to confess

Hey! There′s no police!
Hey, there′s no police between two beating hearts
Hey! There′s no police!
Hey, there′s no police between two beating hearts
Between two beating hearts [x4]
I know
