ꓘeep calm

Don't confuse neediness for love
Because obsession never lasts
And you're insane by a landslide
I never cared for you much until death do us part
You'll always be distressed

Carry on
With the guise of a sheep in a storm
You're a wolf
And you're losing the ground that you're on

But hey, hey, I've got things to say
I've lost control of life
I don't know how many times I've tried
To undo the knot you've tied
My face is red
And people change
I've changed for good this time

And I've followed you around
I've seen you all over town
I've got a laundry list telling you why
It follows to prove I was right

Carry on
With the guise of a sheep in a storm
You're a wolf
And you're losing the ground that you're on

But hey, hey, I've got things to say
I've lost control of life
I don't know how many times I've tried
To undo the knot you've tied
My face is red and people change
I've changed for good this time

I just can't handle this
I'm just so scared of it
A challenge fit for a man when I'm just a kid
I'm all torn at the seams, just like you said I'd be
If this is love then I don't want a part of it
I just can't handle this, I'm just so scared of it
A challenge fit for a man when I'm just a kid
I'm all torn at the seams, just like you said I'd be

Un autre penny au fond du puit

Hey mom, they left me here alone
Someone save me, someone save me
Hey God, I'm out here on my own
So now will you save me now

I think it's funny you've been quiet for so long (quiet for so long)
When you're quiet no one proves you wrong
And dear your holiness
Your army's safe and sound
Down here dying for you

And I don't know how they found me, found me here
And I don't know how they found me, found me here

Maybe you can trick a lot of them
Maybe if you fool the best of them
The rest will come around

We're all scared
So they dressed you up in all these different names
I've gotta find peace with myself
Before I give you all
Before I give you anything at all

I think it's funny you've been quiet for so long (quiet for so long)
When you're quiet no one proves you wrong
And dear your holiness
Your army's safe and sound
They're down here dying for you

And I don't know how they found me, found me here
And I don't know how they found me, found me here

Maybe you can trick a lot of them
Maybe if you fool the best of them
The rest will come around (around)

Been thinking that there's something more
And that you'd come down and you tell me yourself
Now I realize
It's just a waste of time
Another penny thrown down the well

And I don't know how they found me, found me here
And I don't know how they found me, found me here
And I don't know how they found me, found me here
(Dear your holiness, army's safe and sound)
And I don't know how they found me, found me here

Dear your Holiness - Bayside

Cadeau

It seems like you're keeping me down
And it just seems pointless
To work this thing out and
What's holding me back?
A lifelong friendship's not worth this I'll hide this one deep underground

Convenience can comfort you now but the words that you said you can never take back and
I'm warning you now when you realize you made a mistake
I'll be sure to kick while you're down

I gave you this gift (I gave you this gift)
Now I'm here alone
And I'm paying for it
Our light's almost out (Our light's almost out)
But I'll smile again the day that you figure out
I was all that you had

Hello Shitty - Bayside

Cases vides

Empty fields move me so much more then rooms filled up with friends, the way the trees look dead reminds me that there's more to life then living
Maybe
Giving up's not bad but part of
Letting go of you

If I surrender to this feeling maybe all the aches and pains
Will go
And I can close my eyes
Never again to have them open till I bleed out all I've been
I don't want to be alone no more
No more

Take this razor, sign your name across my wrists so everyone will know
Who left me like this

So take this razor, sign your name across my wrists so everyone will know
Who left me like this

Sew me up, my scars run deep
A reminder not
To forget the times that we've had
I'll never waste another second I have wasted so much time
And I have wasted wasted
So much time
So much time

Take this razor, sign your name across my wrists so everyone will know
Who left me like this

Sew me up, my scars run deep
A reminder not
To forget the times that we've had

Sleepless

Drink up Beautiful
I spiked your cup with angst
And a heart attack
I've got so much trapped
And it's all because of you
So I figured you might like some back...

And when I see her I'll tell her what's been on my mind
All these sleepless nights
She'll recite her excuses, put my tail between these legs of mine
Like I do all the time

Can't live my life
Knowing you'll be in his arms each time I blink my eyes
Know what goes on behind my back every night
Afraid I'll never leave
Afraid I'll never know what's good for me

And when I see her I'll tell her what's been on my mind
All these sleepless nights
She'll recite her excuses, put my tail between these legs of mine
Like I do all the time

And now you say that
You say you love me
Well I may have your heart he has your body
And now you swear that
You're being honest
But you're not honest,
You never could be

And when I see her I'll tell her what's been on my mind
All these sleepless nights
She'll recite her excuses, put my tail between these legs of mine
Like I do all the time

Bayside - Don't call me peanuts

ꓘMG

The sharper the edge, the cleaner the wound
So, I'll be keeping it dull tonight for I deserve to hurt
Disfigure the outside to show how ruined I am
There's no pain and no pleasure when you're too numb to feel

There's a pedestal across the room
And if I try to climb again
This time the fall is fatal
I don't deserve such an easy exit
So maybe my spine can snap on impact
And I'll have to crawl away

I'm ready to take that big step
Start tearing off the layers I put up
Or is it too late to be
Anything but what I am?
Identify the problem, now let's see
If we can fix anything

Just close the door and let me do what I need
'Cause it's better for us if you just let me leave

I'm ready to take that big step
Start tearing off the layers I put up
Or is it too late to be
Anything but what I am?
Identify the problem, now let's see
If we can fix anything

How to fix everything?

Bayside - How to fix everything

60 secondes

This isn't who I am
From confidence to self doubt
In 60 seconds...
Storming stages and stereos
From here to there
Trying to prove that I belong
Trying to win approval
From people that I don't know

And I look so strong
when the weight of all the world
Don't take its toll
And I'd choose my side if I believed in what was right
But I'm all wrong

I'm not larger than life
I'm not taller than trees
Do I mean what I say or is it just this disease?
Will I never go home?

Never telling the truth how this life eats away
Meaning I'm fake
And I'm questioning whether this whole thing was worth it
To die poor and all alone?

And I look so strong
When the weight of all the world
Don't take its toll
And I'd choose my side if I believed in what was right
But I'm all wrong

Just don't tell me
This doesn't mean the World
'Cause my ears would bleed
And my heart would hit the floor

And I look so strong
When the weight of all the world
Don't take its toll
And I'd choose my side if I believed in what was right
But I'm all wrong

They looked like strong hands - Bayside

Bonne Année!

The night sky's black, and I'm awake
Lying on the ground
The grass beneath my feet is hard and cold just like I've come to be
The stars are gone behind the clouds
And I can't see a thing
So I'll just let my eyes stay closed just like me
I can't open up

'Cause I'm all wrong
And I don't see a chance to fix this head
So just give up
Write me off, pretend I don't exist

There's something in an empty bed that makes it hard to close your eyes
It can eat at you 'till they both turn black and blue
And all you want is a reason you should live or a way for you to die
A way for you to die

'Cause I'm all wrong
And I don't see a chance to fix this head
So just give up
Write me off, pretend I don't exist

The ground's opening up
I'm falling down below
An endless fall into a place that I don't think a child should know
And I'm screaming out a name that could never pass my lips
The poison in my veins
That got me through her kiss

'Cause I'm all wrong
And I don't see a chance to fix this head
So just give up
Write me off, pretend I don't exist

The ground's opening up
I'm falling down below
An endless fall into a place that I don't think a child should know
And I'm screaming out a name that could never pass my lips
The poison in my veins
That got me through her kiss
Now I'm too hung up on that
To have anything with you
The poison in my veins
The poison in my veins
The poison in my veins that got me through

Poison in my veins - Bayside

Dualité

I push my fingers into my eyes It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache But it's made of all the things I have to take Jesus, it never ends, it works its way inside If the pain goes on Rrrhaaaaaaaah! I have screamed until my veins collapsed I've waited as my time's elapsed Now, all I do is live with so much fate I've wished for this, I've bitched at that I've left behind this little fact: You cannot kill what you did not create I've gotta say what I've gotta say And then I swear I'll go away But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise I guess I'll save the best for last My future seems like one big past You're left with me 'cause you left me no choice I push my fingers into my eyes It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache If the pain goes on I'm not gonna make it! Put me back together Or separate the skin from bone Leave me all the pieces, then you can leave me alone Tell me the reality is better than the dream But I found out the hard way Nothing is what it seems I push my fingers into my eyes It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache But it's made of all the things I have to take Jesus, it never ends, it works its way inside If the pain goes on I'm not gonna make it! All I've got... all I've got is insane All I've got... all I've got is insane All I've got... all I've got is insane All I've got... all I've got is insane! I push my fingers into my...eyes! It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache But it's made of all the things I have to take Jesus, it never ends, it works its way inside If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it! Duality - Slipknot

Some days I get crazed I don't know why it's so irrelevant I'll take deep breaths And keep control, go on! I've tried brave And you've tried to save I'm proud to keep it bottled up I think I past my prime and lost my mind and I'm torn No telling what tomorrow holds Who let, who let this feeling die, when all I did was try? Who let, you let this feeling die I can't get you out of my head, my head You're the flame that burns me so I know that I'm still alive Some say It's all fate but I say we control our lives And if my destiny should outbest me then that's fine I make believe thrill and apathy co-exist in me fairly equally The truth is doubts are all I've got to call mine No telling what tomorrow holds No telling what voice takes control Who let, who let this feeling die, when all I did was try? Who let, you let this feeling die, I can't get you out of my head, my head You're the flame that burns me so I know that I'm still alive Is there anybody out there (anybody out there) Is anybody calling (anybody calling) What if what I say is really wrong? Is there anybody out there (anybody out there) Is anybody calling (anybody calling) What if what you say is really wrong? I'm not in control, I think I'm out of control Who let, who let this feeling die, when all I did was try? Who let, you let this feeling die, I can't get you out of my head, my head You're the flame that burns me so I know that I'm still alive Duality - Bayside

Rien n'est vrai

Push me out from the darkness
To a sky that's colored blue
Somewhere someone's finding happiness
While I'm still here so hung up on you

Nothing is real
And I want you to know
That I'm not alright
When you tear open my chest
I'll try not to flinch
I won't make promises
I won't make promises
You taught me that

I'm still losing what's left of
My self esteem
And I'm still watching the slow fading
Of all my
Daydreams

The hardest things to say are the words that mean the most
So I'll bite my tongue till it bleeds and I doubt you'll even know
The easiest things to fake are feelings to fool someone else
And I've been tricked for so long by you that I spent these last few months in my own hell

A failed apology
A day too late but now I see
That all you really wants to see me dangle neck first from a tree
But what would you need me for
You've got friends galore
And all you've ever been to me
Is a waste of time and nothing more

Nothing is real (Nothing is real)
and I want you to know (and I want you to know)
That I'm not alright (That I'm not alright)
When you tear (tear open my chest) open my chest
(I'll try not to flinch) I'll try not to flinch
(I won't make promises) I won't make promises
(I won't make promises) You taught me that

I hate myself
For loving you like this
And I hate myself for
Hating myself
Just enough to love you...
Just enough to love you

Du coin de l'oeil dans le miroir

Pound my knuckles hard against the floor
My head against the wall
But I did this to myself
Assume it's just not worth getting back up
So I'll blame it on bad luck
And I'll shake responsibility, yeah

I spent some time in a bad place
At 18
Wishing I could see something through clear eyes
But do you ever wake up to realize
Your life is meaningless?
Does it give you strength or lead you to your grave at a young age?

Pound my knuckles hard against the floor
My head against the wall
But I did this to myself
Assume it's just not worth getting back up
So I'll blame it on bad luck
And I'll shake responsibility, yeah

It seems that when I ran away
From my past
All my dignity, my faith, my pride got left back
But now I think it's time I realize
Self pity's meaningless
Though I'm 10 feet deep
I'll claw my way back out from in my grave

Pound my knuckles hard against the floor
My head against the wall
But I did this to myself
Assume it's just not worth getting back up
So I'll blame it on bad luck
And I'll shake responsibility
And say a hard life did this to me

But now I realize
I'd give anything I have
To walk a day in my old shoes
Wondering what my first smoke would be like,
My first fuck, my next fuck up
The next band that would change my life,
And it changed my life
And it changed my life

Pound my knuckles hard against the floor
My head against the wall
But I did this to myself
Assume it's just not worth getting back up
So I'll blame it on bad luck
I'll shake responsibility
And say a hard life did this to me

Blame it on bad luck - Bayside

Fire At Will

I'm trying to create something that's not there
A spark I saw - A bomb is
just a means to an end

And I was just so happy to be out of my shell again
I don't think that
I really cared for who or what so for now I'll just have to keep it shut

If you're not ready
You're not ready
Please!
Stop acting like you are

How could I know
that everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark
Inside your eyes was just the match I used to set myself on fire

My mouth's shooting blanks
This situation's unbearable
I've gotten vulnerable
Now anyone is free to waltz right in
My temple's been invaded and there's nobody guarding it
All over this lonely life (this lonely life)
But what's so wrong with being all alone
Alone's the only way I've ever known

If you're not ready
You're not ready
Please!
Stop acting like you are

How could I know (How could I know)
That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark (I know the spark)
Inside your eyes was just the match I used to set myself on fire

I'm pleading
'Cause this kills and
It's still bleeding
My darling
I'm taking
My life back
To start healing

How could I know
That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark
Inside your eyes was just the match I used to set myself on fire
Set myself on fire

Devotion and Desire - Bayside

<no comment>

My friend
You're always the last one to leave those dimly lit rooms
Making sure the last glass makes its way to the table empty
And every bottle in the place
Has been upside down at least a few times
What a waste
Is this what's left of you these days?
You're not 18
Anymore five years should have been enough time
For you to grow up and get over this
Not too cool
To be throwing up all morning sick
From what you might have done or done it with

I swear
If I could take your pain and frame it
And hang it on my wall
Maybe you would never have to hurt at all
I'm painting pictures in red and blue
A portrait bruised just like you
Now you're walking away
You're not 18
Anymore five years should have been enough time
For you to grow up and get over this
Not too cool
To be throwing up all morning sick
From what you might have done

When is enough
finally enough?
All the hang-ups and the heartbreaks get you past
All failures and bad breaks
Just accept yourself
Find something that brings you closer to complete

Painting pictures in red and blue
A portrait bruised just like you
And now you're walking away
You're not 18
Anymore five years should have been enough time
For you to grow up and get over this
Not too cool
To be throwing up all morning sick
From what you might of done or done it with

When is enough
finally enough?
When is enough
finally enough?
