As Cities Burn

"oh how sweet the sound

I know it saved but is it changing a wretch like me

oh my God how sweet is the sound

I once was blind but now I just look away" - Thus From My Lips, By Yours, My Sin Is Purged

 

"we will wear compassion

we will wear it on our chests

and sing with love at our throats

like a child, it's all I know" - Love Jealous One, Love

 

"Father, hide our hearts in you

lest we steal them back

and lay them at the feet of men

I know now that glory has not a place

near my hands or any man" - Love Jealous One, Love

 

"part my ribs like the sea and change me

'cause stone doesn't beat

and rock hearts don't pump anything

but I've grown not to mind because at least

stone doesn't sling like blood

or spill like guts across the floor

where the bloodsuckers want more and more and more" - Incomplete Is A Leech

 

"and stretch me out across the table

and turn my insides out

turn me into someone else

someone more like yourself

and stretch me out

but bother not with ties, I promise to lie

perfectly still

And I swear, I swear not to scream

at my becoming part of the machine" - Bloodsucker Pt. II

 

"are you the man now that you got what you wanted?" - Bloodsucker Pt. II

 

"forgive me darling, but love had nothing to do with this." - Terrible! How Terrible For The Great City!

 

"do you feel as empty as the lungs of those waiting

to come into this world

where being beautiful means being used?" - Terrible! How Terrible For The Great City!

 

"Dead man, were you ever alive?

Or was I just a seed you buried deep inside

Some woman you wed

Right before you crawled out of her bed and crept down the hall?

Did you think of me?

Did you even for a second hesitate in the doorway?

It's just something that I'd like to know

Though I'd still love you if told me

You just walked away

 

My God, what a world you love

Where men bury their sons

And without thought just walk away

 

And my mother's heart breaks

Like the water inside of her

[x2]

 

Dead man, is it being high that makes you alive?

It makes you leave behind three boys and a wife in '89

As the track marks inched their way up your arm

My mother taught my brothers and I not to call you daddy

But to call you father

 

But I believe there is something here to be learned of grace

'Cause I can't help but love you

Even with a heart that breaks

Like the promises that you made

Like the promises that you made

The promises that you made

 

My God, what a world you love" - The Widow

 

"Love, what is love without trust?" - Wake Dead Man, Wake

 

"Son, I Loved You At Your Darkest." - Wake Dead Man, Wake

 

"shame is the anchor tied around my ankle

shame keeps me low and close to the bottom

where I am the least

at the bottom" - One: Twentyseven

 

"how can I call this love when all that I am

is because your love endures my back to it?" - One: Twentyseven

 

"I watched you float away on a wave of want and misery

now I've got to find you

I watched you float away on whatever caught your eye

now I've got to find you

'cause I've got to keep your head above the water

while the current pulls me under

 

I will hang my life in the space between the noose and your neck

I won't let you die just yet

 

I will love you even when you won't let me

and you will kill me by doing nothing

but I know it's not you, my dear,

I know it's not you

I know it's not you, my dear,

it's the nothing that kills

 

I can't save you

control is something out of mine

no, I can't save you

control is something out of my control

 

I will love you even when you won't let me

and you will kill me by doing nothing

but I know it's not you, my dear,

I know it's not you

I know it's not you, my dear,

it's the nothing that kills

 

I can't save you but I will love you

no, I can't save you but I will love you

I'd like to think that this is love

lost in second chances without end

this is romance" - Of Want And Misery: The Nothing That Kills

And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged.

I'm sorry honey, but I'm passing up, now look this way.

Well there's a million other girls who do it just like you.

Looking as innocent as possible to get to who,

They want and what they like it's easy if you do it right.

Buried beneath it all and

Hiding beneath it all, and

Growing beneath it all, and..." - Let The Flames Begin

"cupid found his mark,

shot his arrow through our hearts.

said he planned if from the start,

my valentine...

i'll kiss every scar,

that's been planted on your heart.

i love you for who you are,

my valentine..."

 

"forget to breathe when you're around,

heart skips a beat and falls right out.

okay this is officially my favorite song everrr.

 

Supernatural - Flyleaf

 

Her headaches are constant,

Increasing in pain

With each passing day.

She can't even manage

To stand on her own, it's gotten so bad.

 

Now you think of saying

There's no use in praying.

And still, she bows her head.

So she can say

Thank You for just one more day.

 

Supernatural patience

Graces her face

And her voice never raises.

All because of a love

Never let go of, never let go of

 

He has every reason to throw up his fists

In the face of his God

Who let his mother die.

Through all the prayers and tears,

She still passed in pain anyway.

 

Now you think of saying

There's no use in praying

And still, he bows his head.

So he can say

Thank You for ending her pain.

 

Supernatural patience

Graces his face

And his voice never raises.

All because of a love

Never let go of.

 

Never let go of...

 

He is teaching me...

What love really means...

 

Supernatural patience

Graces his face

And his voice never raises.

All because of a love

Never let go of.

Yes it's Supernatural patience

Graces his face

And his voice never raises.

All because of a love

Never let go of. Never let go of

 

He is teaching me...

What love really means...

right now its from a song called Miniature Disasters by KT tunstall

 

"and i need to be patient

and i need to be brave

i need to discover

how i need to behave

and i'll find out the answers

when i know how to ask

but i speak a different language

and everybody's talking too fast"

"You are the earth beneath my feet,

You are my gravity.

Cause lately I've been tired and uninspired.

Cause lately I've been tired, oh-so tired.

 

Oh, they're not frame,

Oh, it went away.

You knew you had to leave and couldn't stay.

Be strong for me, I'll be strong for you.

Be strong for me, I'll be strong for you..."

 

Tired&Uninspired by My American Heart

the way she feels - between the trees

 

"She's upset

Bad day

Heads for the dresser drawer to

drive her pain away

Nothing good can come of this.

She opens it theres nothing there

is only left over tears

Mom and dad had no right she screams

as the anger runs down both of her cheeks.

 

Then she closed her eyes

and found relief in a knife

the blood flows as she cries

 

All alone the way she feels

Left alone to deal with all the pain-drenched sorrow relief

Bite the lip just forget the bleeding

 

Curled up shes on the floor

relief left her she had hoped for something more

from it

He leans down to comfort her

She is weeping and He

wraps His arms around

and around and around and...

The deeper you cut

the deeper I hurt

The deeper you cut

it only gets worse

 

Now shes slowly opening...

new eyes...

 

Then she opened her eyes

and found relief through His life

and put down her knives

 

Then she opened her life

and found relief through His eyes

and put down

she put down her life"

 

this is the most amz song i've ever heard.

Not one of them involving you

Just watch my wildest dreams come true

Not one of them involving - Misery Business

This is what will be oh glory. - Let the Flames Begin

When this memory fades

I'm gonna make sure it's replaced

With chances taken

Hope embraced

I'm not going

cause I've been waiting for a miracle

And I'm not leaving

Let you give up on a miracle

All of We Are Broken.

 

I'm sitting in a room,

Made up of only big white walls and in the hall

There are people looking through

The window in the door

they know exactly what we're here for. - Fences

 

Don't look up

Just let them think

There's no place else

You'd rather be. - Fences

 

Yeah, yeah well you're just a mess

You do all this big talking

So now let's see you walk it.

I said let's see you walk it. - Fences

 

All of Born for This

 

FLYLEAF

 

I'm so sick,

Infected with where I live

Let me live without this

Empty bliss,

Selfishness

I'm so sick

I'm so sick - I'm So Sick

 

Telling Layla's story spoken

'Bout how all her bones are broken

Hammers fall on all the pieces

Two months in the cover creases - Fully Alive

 

Perfect in weakness

I'm only perfect in just your strength alone

Perfect in weakness

I'm only running in just your strength alone - Perfect

 

Do you believe in God

Written on the bullet

Say yes to pull the trigger

Do you believe in God

Written on the bullet

And Cassie pulled the trigger - Cassie

 

Sorrow lasts through this night

I'll take this piece of you

And hold for all eternity

For just one second I felt whole

As you flew right through me - Perfect

 

I close my eyes and brace myself

I only noticed your face

No matter what you're gonna build my shell

No matter what you're gonna build my shell - I'm Sorry

 

My hands are searching for you

My arms are outstretched towards you

I feel you on my fingertips

My tongue dances behind my lips for you - All Around Me

 

I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me

Thickening the air I'm breathing

Holding on to what I'm feeling

Savoring this heart that's healing - All Around Me

 

Take my hand

I give it to you

Now you owe me

All I am

You said you would never leave me

I believe you

I believe - All Around Me

 

The warmth of your embrace

Melts my frostbitten spirit

You speak the truth and I hear it

The words are I love you

And I have to believe in you - Red Sam

 

I wanna be there for you

Someone you can come to

Runs deeper than my bones

I wanna be there for you

I wanna be there for you - There for You

 

Swirling shades of blue

Slow dancing in your sky

Sun kisses the earth

And I hush my urge to cry - There for You

 

Only one thing

Big enough to fill the void thats inside of you

It's just a breath away.

You can breathe today - Breathe Today

 

All your twisted thoughts free flow

To everlasting memories

Show soul

Kiss the stars with me

And dread the wait for

Stupid calls returning us to life

We say to those who are in love

It can't be true 'cause we're too young

I know that's true because

so long I was

So in love with you

So I thought - So I thought

umm, anything Circa Survive. it helps that Anthony's voice makes pretty much everything sound beautiful. even when he says things like "so f**ing bored all of a sudden, so f***ing scared, i'm not scared."

 

"both we and our words are overproduced by influence." like that one a lot

"Calcium waste, litter and falling like icicles." yeahyeah!!! The Glorious Nosebleed in general is great. Along with In Fear and Faith.. favorite of mine out of their songs. although basically everything they do is awesome.

 

"And the amplifier screams out loud for the last time.

Wave your hands at the audience as you sink on in.

First chance to hide, you need desperately so, find me, so."

 

and We're All Thieves

sample: "I long to find a cure for the feeling I find in these chords.

I smile as it burns."

 

"But we won't be saved

We'll live as slaves to love

What God takes away

Let's refill all your holes with mud

"Purchase your tickets; I'm kicking your crosses down" "

 

basically Circa Survive owns me. they're awesome.

'how we survive is what makes us who we are' - survive by rise against

 

'Heaven's not a place that you go when you die, it's the moment in life that you actually feel alive - so live for the moment. Take this advice, live by every word, love is just a hoax so forget everything that you have heard - and live for the moment now' - the tide by the spill canvas

I have too many to list.

 

But 'Go With the Flow' by QOTSA has some of my fav lyrics ever.

 

She said I'd throw myself away

They're just photos after all

I can't make you hang around

I can;t wash you off my skin

Outside the frame

Is what we're leaving out

You won't remember anyway

 

I can go....with the flow

I can say it doesn't matter...matter anymore

I can go...with the flow

You believe it in your head...

 

It's so safe to play along

Little soldiers in a row

We're falling in and out of love

For something sweet to throw away

But I want something good to die for

To make it beautiful to live

I want a new mistake

Lose is more than hesitate

You believe it in your head...

 

You believe it in your head....

You believe it in your head....

 

Awesome.
