Megadeth - Burning Bridges

You give up on yourself
Somehow you got betrayed agin
Thin ice and luck runs out
Who will you blame it on this time?

Due to lack of interest in you
The light at the end of the tunnel
Was turned off
And something I noticed
Beating you is thrilling me
I′ve got a secret for you

If you took your own direction
If only you practice what you preach
If you follow your advice
You wouldn′t be burning bridges all the time

Don′t close your eyes to injustice
Listen, being brave ain′t chicken shit
A man without any valor
Has nothing worth living for

Due to lack of interest in you
The light at the end of the tunnel
Was turned off
And something I noticed
Beating you is thrilling me
I′ve got a secret for you

If you took your own direction
If only you practice what you preach
If you follow your advice
You wouldn′t be burning bridges all the time

If you took your own direction
If only you practice what you preach
If you follow your advice
You wouldn′t be burning bridges all the time

If you took your own direction
If only you practice what you preach
If you follow your advice
You wouldn′t be burning bridges all the time

Megadeth - Dawn Patrol

Thermal count is rising
In perpetual writhing
The primordial ooze
And the sanity they lose

Awakened in the morning
To more air pollution warnings
Still we sleepwalk off to work
While our nervous systems jerk

Pretending not to notice
How history had forebode us
With the green house in effect
Our environment was wrecked

Now I can only laugh
As I read our epitaph
We end our lives as moles
In the dark of dawn patrol

Megadeth - Elysian Fields

Uneasy feeling, burning out my eyes
I hope the end is less painful than my life
I stand on trial before the gods
On judgement day
A blink of an eye between
The cradle and the grave

One last look at visions of flesh
The last best hope of man on Earth
Pontius Pilate still washing his hands
The world don′t want to be saved
Only left alone

Elysian Fields...
We are storming the heavens
We raise the swords and shields
We ascend to our destiny
To the Elysian Fields

Soaring to the sun
With blood upon their wings
Superstitious dust left twisting in the wind
Man still has one belief,
One decree that stands alone
The laying down of arms
Is like cancer to their bones

Megadeth - Psychotron

Assassin in stealth
Assailant from Hell
Impervious to damage
Computer on-board
Engaged in a war
Non-stop combatant
Maybe not a mutant, maybe a man

Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Call him Psychotron

Burning inside
Godspeed in glide
Battle plan running
A killing machine
Just downright mean
And forever gunning
Maybe not a mutant, maybe a man

Target to destroy
Arms in employ
Full assault fire threat
Sensors indicate
You will terminate
Life systems disconnect

Psychotron

Megadeth - Seven

Full of greed you sell your soul
Full of pride a heavy load
You eat yourself gluttony
Resent yourself you envy me

Everything turns into wrath
You lust yourself to death

Deep fears that drive us
Hid beneath disguises
Judge the world within
Forgive my deadly sins

Procrastination always giving up
Something better comes to interrupt
Cast your verdict down to me
Spare me your bleeding sympathy

Only care how you appear
Clearly see you can′t see clear

Deep fears that drive us
Hid beneath disguises
Judge the world within
Forgive my deadly sins

Greed, gluttony, pride, envy, wrath, sloth, death, deadly seven
Seven deadly sins of mine

On every street
And corner lie
These seven deadly sins of mine

Megadeth - FFF (Fight For Freedom)

Looking for a cure within the human race
Eliminate the poor, how much longer will it take?
Burning up the tents of the rank and file
Exterminate their lives, crack a demon smile

Crushing down, caving in our will to live
Getting rid of man′s mistakes
To take a lost life, lock it up break it down
How much more can we take?

Fight for freedom, fight authority
Fight for anything, my country ′tis of me

Cry for absolution, it′s not the end for me
A last minute pardon, one final reprive
Resist the war machine, don′t get in it′s path
Fight to die a free man, and reap the aftermath

I don′t know how much more I can take

Fight! It′s my country

Megadeth - Set The World Afire

Red flash clouds choking out the morning sky
They said it′d never come, we knew it was a lie
All forms of life die now the humans all succumb
Time to kiss your ass goodbye the end has just begun

Distorted figures walk the street, it′s 1989
Weeds once underneath your feet have grown into vines
Bodies melted like a candle, a land without a face
No time to change your fate, no time left, it′s too late

The arsenal of Megadeth can′t be rid they said
And if it comes, the living will envy the dead
Racing for power, and all come in last
No winning first stone cast
This falsehood worldly peace
It′s treaties will soon cease
No one will be left to prove that numbers existed
Maybe soon the children will be born open fisted
We all live on one planet it will all go up in smoke

Too bad they couldn′t see this lethal energy
and now the final scene, a global darkening

Dig deep the piles of rubble and ruins
Towering overhead both far and wide
There′s unknown tools of World War III
Einstein said "We′ll use rocks on the other side"
No survivors set the world afire

Megadeth - Youthanasia

Who′d believe with the way things are here
We′d be going anywhere telling people
How to live?
Who′d believe we′d spend more
Shippin′ drugs and guns
Than to educate our sons? Sorry but
That′s what they did

I can′t help but think,
Someone′s foresaken you and me

Luck deserted me and the truth
Beat out my brains
Men rise on stepping stones of their
Selves to higher things
I′ve stepped over lots of bodies on my way
Thanks for the information don′t need no
More anything

We are the damned of all the world
With saddness in our hearts
The wounded of the wars
We′ve been hung out to dry
You didn′t want us anyway
And now we′re making up our minds
You tell us how to run our lives
We run for youthanasia

Megadeth - Tornado Of Souls

This morning I made the call
The one that ends it all
Hanging up, I wanted to cry
But dammit, this well′s gone dry
Not for the money, not for the fame
Not for the power, just no more games
But now I′m safe in the eye of the tornado
I can′t replace the lies, that let a 1000 days go
No more living trapped inside
In her way I′ll surely die
In the eye of the tornado, blow me away

You′ll grow to loathe my name
You′ll hate me just the same
You won′t need your breath
And soon you′ll meet your death
Not from the years, not from the use
Not from the tears, just self abuse

Who′s to say, what′s for me to say...be...do
Cause a big nothing it′ll be for me
The land of opportunity
The golden chance for me
My future looks so bright
Now I think I′ve seen the light

Can′t say what′s on my mind
Can′t do what I really feel
In this bed I made for me
Is where I sleep, I really feel
I warn you of the fate
Proven true to late
Your tongue twist perverse
Come drink now of this curse
And now I fill your brain
I spin you round again
My poison fills your head
As I tuck you into bed
You feel my fingertips
You won′t forget my lips
You′ll feel my cold breath
It′s the kiss of death

Megadeth - When

No hears a word I say
And my prayers are never answered
But you′ll never see the pain inside of me
Stabbing me over and over and over
I trusted you and I loved you
And you spit back in my face
How could you do this to me?
When will you stop trying to hurt me?
I′ve walked a minefield for you
A career in hell with you
I have made it through the things
Others would surely die just watching
And the oath I take on this day
Is to know that you will be repaid
One day the the sun will die and the night will crawl
Until then, until I see your world implode
I wish you death and suffering
Misery to spare
Time to release your pain
Face the last enemy
I am the last thing you will know
The last thing you will see
I see your death surrounding me
I know you, yes I do
I know you

When no words are spoken and please are ignored
Your tears go unnoticed, will you say enough?
When prayers are unanswered and your calls are unheard
The pain cuts right through you, have you seen enough?

It all seems so deceitful and the verdict is lies
A black cloud of indecision compromised your life

When judgement has failed you
When your own heart′s impaled you
Your wandering mind has destroyed you
Will you ever know when?

When you give everything and the feeling is gone
All the giving is fake, did you fake enough?
When you take everything and you stay too long
When there′s nothing left, did you take enough?

It all seems so deceitful and the verdict is lies
A black cloud of indecision compromised your life

When judgement has failed you
When your own heart′s impaled you
Your wandering mind has destroyed you
Will you ever know when?

Megadeth - Go To Hell

I′m not going to wake up today
They′ve pulled my plug the picture fades
And as my body decays mold begins to fill my grave
The smell of death permeates the silk within my coffin lays
Go to hell

As they bury me now six feet there my body lies
Still feel like I′m giong down I hear a distant wailing cry
God something must′ve gone wrong
And much too late I realize
Go to hell

I saw my funeral that day
I know who didn′t show to mourn
My judgement was life in hell
Pillars of pain and thorns
My only friend′s the goat
With 666 between his horns
Go to hell

Place all your trust here in me
Rest assured these things I know
And as Charon sails the sea
Your journey too shall end below
Ah yes you′re all sitting ducks
It′s true you reap what you sow
Go to hell

Now I lay me down to sleep
Blah, blah, blah my soul to keep
If I die before I wake
I′ll go to hell for heaven′s sake

Megadeth - Rattlehead

Well, Here I come
Stand up and plant your feet
Listen I′m letting off steam
Now throw your hands in the air
Let loose I don′t fuckin care

Rattle Head
A dose of metal you need
To bang your head til you bleed
It′s time for snapping some neck
Slashing, thrashing to Megadeth

Rattle Head
You, Your head, is pounding with pain
Winning, sinning, beginning
Feeding, the needing for bleeding
Bashing, smashing, crashing
Fraying, annhilating you!

There′s someone back in the shadows
You feel though you can′t see his eyes
He′ll bash your head if you cross him
Ain′t quite your average guy
Don′t wear no leather to "fittin"
Don′t wear no spike to be "cool"
Don′t want no woman beside him
Just make it fast, Loud and Rude
Rattle Head

I′m a Rattle Head
Rattle your Goddamn Head!

Megadeth - 1000 Times Goodbye

The tides of change pulled us apart
I feel a familiar pain
It seems like years since we′ve loved
Or even liked and that′s a lonely way to be

Drifting alone in a sea of agony
Your face I can′t recognize
Don′t make this hard on us
I will miss you if you just go away

I did no right you did no wrong
Nothing left but wasted days
I regret you leaving
But I will never take you back

You know what? It′s over
I just don′t feel the same way as I used to
We′ve been together forever, but it′s over

Goodbye 1000 times goodbye
The thought never crossed my mind
That this would be my last goodbye
Let me put pennies on your eyes
And kiss your lips one last goodbye
My love 1000 times goodbye

It seems nothing good is free
A good thing cost much more than the price
You were good but not that good
Don′t kid yourself now it′s time to beak up

Drifting alone in a sea of agony
Your face I can′t recognize
Don′t make this hard on us
I will miss you if you just go away

I did no right you did no wrong
Nothing left but wasted days
I regret you leaving
But I′ll never take you back

Don′t call me anymore. It′s just not.
I don′t feel the same way about you
Its not as good as it used to be

Goodbye 1000 times goodbye
The thought never crossed my mind
That this would be my last goodbye
Let me put pennies on your eyes
And kiss your lips one last goodbye
My love 1000 times goodbye

I′ll always love you but just not like that
Like what?
I want to be honest with you I met someone else
You did what?
And I really, I really love him like I used to love you
Remember the time that I told you that
I was going out of town for business?
Well I went to see him
You know what? You suck!

Goodbye 1000 times
You′ll always have a special place
In my heart you know that
It′s just I can′t be with you anymore it′s over
Goodbye 1000 times
Things may not work out with him
Goodbye 1000 times
And if they don′t
Goodbye 1000 times
Then I′ll certainly call you
Goodbye 1000 times
You mean a lot to me
I still really want to be friends with you
I love you like you′re my brother

Megadeth - Peace Sells

What do you mean, "I don′t believe in God"?
I talk to him every day.
What do you mean, "I don′t support your system"?
I go to court when I have to.
What do you mean, "I can′t get to work on time"?
I got nothing better to do
And, what do you mean, "I don′t pay my bills"?
Why do you think I′m broke? Huh?

If there′s a new way,
I′ll be the first in line.
But, it better work this time.

What do you mean, "I hurt your feelings"?
I didn′t know you had any feelings.
What do you mean, "I ain′t kind"?
I′m just not your kind.
What do you mean, "I couldn′t be president, of the United States of America"?
Tell me something, it′s still "We the people", right?

If there′s a new way I′ll be the first in line, But, it better
work this time. Can you put a price on peace?
Peace,
Peace sells...,
Peace,
Peace sells...,
Peace sells...,but who′s buying?
Peace sells...,but who′s buying?
Peace sells...,but who′s buying?
Peace sells...,but who′s buying?
No, peace sells...

Seven deadly sins of mine

Megadeth - Countdown To Extinction

Endangered species, caged in fright,
Shot in cold blood, no chance to fight.
The stage is set, now pay the price.
An ego boost, don′t think twice.
Technology, the battle′s unfair,
You pull the hammer without a care.
Squeeze the trigger that makes you Man,
Pseudo-safari, the hunt is canned...
The hunt is canned.

All are gone, all but one.
No contest, nowhere to run.
No more left, only one.
This is it, this is the Countdown to Extinction.

Tell the truth, you wouldn′t dare.
The skin and trophy, oh so rare.
Silence speaks louder than words.
Ignore the guilt, and take your turn.
Liars anagram is "lairs,"
Man you were never even there.
Killed a few feet from the cages,
Point blank, you′re so courageous...
So courageous.

One hour from now,
another species of life form
will disappear off the face of the planet
forever...and the rate is accelerating.

Megadeth - Trust

Lost in a dream
Nothing′s what it seems
Searching my head
For the words that you said

Tears filled my eyes
As we said our last goodbyes
This sad scene replays
Of you walking away

My body aches from mistakes
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
That in nothing we trust

Time and again
She repeats, "Let′s be friends."
I smile and say, "Yes."
Another truth bends,
I must confess

I try to let go, but I know
We′ll never end ′til we′re dust
We lied to each other again
But I wish I could trust

My body aches from mistakes
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
That in nothing we trust

God, help me please, on my knees
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
Now there′s nothing we trust

How could this be happening to me?
I′m lying when I say, "Trust me."
I can′t believe this is true.
Trust hurts.
Why does trust equal suffering?

Absolutely nothing we trust.

Megadeth - Angry Again

The more of you that I inspect
The more of me I see reflect
The more I try to read your lips
The more the mask you′re wearing rips
But when I seek out your voice
My ears are overcome with noise
You show and tell with greatest ease
Raving impossibilities

Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry ow

And when the story takes a twist
If folds like a contortionist
Slight of hand and quick exchange
The old tricks have been rearranged

Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry

The searing of the sinew
My body fights for air
The ripping of the tissue
My lungs begin to tear
Gravity′s got my bones
It pulls my flesh away

The steam finally dissipates
I make out my sweaty face

Association that I choose
Game I inevitably lose
Governed by laws set up by me
Fracture it′s jaw to let me be
A cut-out cardboard condo maze
Filled with an insubordinate race
Irrational youths stop to stare
As music rubber hosed the air

Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry again
And again and again, again

Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry ow

Megadeth - Blood Of Heroes

Walking stiff let me tell ya
Better left for dead
And now we are on a mission
Well it′s full speed ahead
My legion′s when we do the crime
Let′s get one thing straight
To get there early is on time
And showing up on time is late

Ladies and gents, we′re still alive
By the skin of our teeth, now it′s killing time
Angel in our pocket, devil by our side
We ain′t going nowhere cuz′ heroes never die

Still alive
Blood of heroes
Never die
They never die

We′ve been run down every hill
Chased up all the dead end streets
But if you try to cut us out
You′ll get a kick in the teeth

Ladies and gents we′re still alive
By the skin of our teeth, now it′s killing time
Fasten up your head belts,
Time to ride the skies
It′s time to be immortal, ′cuz heroes never die

Imagine you were at my station
And you brought your motor to me
Your a burner yeah a real motor car

Made me shiver when I put it in
Pumping just won′t do ya know luckily for you
Whoever thought you′d be better
At turning a screw than me
I do it for my life
Made my drive shaft crank
Made my pistons bulge
Made my ball bearing melt from the heat
We were shifting hard when we took off
Put tonight all four on the floor
When we hit top end you know it feels to slow
I′m giving you my room service
And ya know it′s more than enough
Oh one more time ya know I′m in love

Megadeth - Kill The King

Broken down, feeling naked
Leaving me unfulfilled
Promising compromise
Championing mediocrity

Time and time again
What you said ain′t what you mean
Even if all my bones are broken
I will drag myself back from the edge to

Kill the King, The King is dead, Long live the King

Kill the King, The King is dead
I am the King, Long live the King
Kill the King, The King is dead

I reveal a deceiver
In the highest seat in the land
His idle hands the Devil′s workshop
Generate more smoke than heat

Time and time again
What you said ain′t what you mean
Even if all my bones are broken
I will drag myself back from the edge to

Kill the King, The King is dead,
Long live the King Kill the King,
The King is dead, Long live the King,

Kill the King, The King is dead
I am the King, Long live the King
Kill the King, The King is dead
I am the King, Long live the King

A new precedent in pain, a new precedent in pain
Mankind is blown to dust, mankind is blown to dust
An explosion of the Brain, an explosion of the Brain
Spontaneously combust, spontaneously combust

Kill the King, The King is dead, Long live the King,
I am the King Kill the King, I, The King is dead, I am, Long live the King,

Forgive me father for I have sinned
I′m a child of the air, I′m a witch of the wind
And I′m still awake... Mary Jane

From the earth, up through the trees
I can hear her calling me
Her voice rides on the breeze
Oh, it′s haunting me

No, I can′t get away
No, there′s no escape
If I know I′m going crazy
I must not be insane

Beware my friends, as you pass by
As you are now so once was I
As I am now so you must be
Prepare my friends to follow me

Forgive me father for I have sinned
I′m a child of the air, I′m a witch of the wind
Fingers gripped around my brain
No control, my mind is lame
I′m in the astral plane, and I′ll never be the same
Never, never, never, never, never, never
Never, never, never

It hurts so bad I can′t breathe
Prepare to follow me

Megadeth - A Tout Le Monde

Don′t remember where I was
I realized life was a game
The more seriously I took things
The harder the rules became
I had no idea what it′d cost
My life passed before my eyes
I found out how little I accomplished
All my plans denied

So as you read this know my friends
I′d love to stay with you all
Please smile when you think of me
My body′s gone that′s all
A tout le monde/To all the world
A tout mes amis/To all my friends
Je vous aime/I love you
Je dois partir/I have-to/must leave
These are the last words
I′ll ever speak
And they′ll set me free

If my heart was still alive
I know it would surely break
And my memories left with you
There′s nothing more to say

Moving on is a simple thing
What it leaves behind is hard
You know the sleeping feel no more pain
And the living are scarred

You take a mortal man,
And put him in control
Watch him become a god,
Watch peoples heads a′roll
A′roll...

Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes,
Swaying to the Symphony...
Of Destruction

Acting like a robot,
Its metal brain corrodes
You try to take its pulse,
Before the head explodes
Explodes...

The earth starts to rumble
World powers fall
A′warring for the heavens,
A peaceful man stands tall
Tall...

Right now
I am an Anti-Christ,
and I am an anarchist.
Don′t know what I want, but I know how to get it,
I want to destroy, possibly?

Cause I want to be Anarchy. No dog′s body.

Anarchy for the U.K.
It′s coming sometime it maybe.
I give a wrong time, stop a traffic light.
Your future dream is a shopping spree.

Cause I want to be Anarchy, in the city.

Of many ways to get what you want
I use the best, I use the rest.
I use the enemy,
I use anarchy.

Cause I want to be Anarchy, it′s the only way to be.

Is this the M.P.L.A.?
Is this the U.D.A.?
Is this the I.R.A.?
I thought it was the U.K., or just another country
and other cunt-like tendencies.
Cause I want to be Anarchy, cause I want to be Anarchy,
you know what I mean?

Cause I want to be an Anarchist, again I′m pissed, Destroy!

Well I′m happy to report,
My long standing last resort,
Ended by just stopping short,
Of me burning like a torch.
Step off, stand back.

And all my fingers crossed behind my back.

Cause there′s something that I need to prove.
Give me some breathing room.
Cause I′m breathing fumes I′ll light the fuse,
And I′m gonna make the evening news.

With a flare gun in my hand.
Kerosene soaked through my pants,
The last words of my last stand.

Give me some breathing room.
Cause I′m breathing fumes I′ll light the fuse.
Give me some breathing room.

i wonder if anyone is just like me
a walking talking catastrophe
another story of dependency
i neve thought the face in the mirror would be me

hey 911 to everyone [x3]
im in a state of emergancy

like a shot, a shot without a chaser
life′s in a flash it moves way to fast
the most bitter pill you′ve ever tasted
i wonder if anyone is just like me
a walking talking catastrophe
another story of dependency
i neve thought the face in the mirror would be me

im afraid of growing up and growing old
afriad of the past and present
and what my future might hold

hey 911 to everyone [x3]
im in a state of emergancy

hey 911 to everyone [x3]
im in a state of emergancy

Less Than Jake - That′s Why They Call It A Union

There′s a black cloud over this house
That′s been around for 3 years now
There′s a thunderstorm inside
And it won′t go away

That′s why they call it a union
That′s why they call it a union
So both of you please forgive me tonight
That′s why they call it a union
So please forgive me tonight

I remember him turning around
He said, "Son, I′ll be leaving now,
I can′t be the person that you want me to be
And then she said, "So things aew finally ending now,
I knew you′d be walking out,
You can′t be the person that you want me to be."

3 years of all the arguments
3 years of all this silence
Has been enough to last me a lifetime
3 years of all the arguments
3 years of all this pain

That′s why they call it a union
That′s why they call it a union
So both of you please forgive me tonight
That′s why they call it a union
So please forgive me tonight

I can′t look at the pictures anymore
Because i know how it′s run its course
And i know hoe the story ends
I know it ends

There′s a black cloud over this house
That′s been around for 3 years now
There′s a thunderstorm inside,
And another fight tonight

There′s a black cloud over this house
That′s been around for 3 years now
There′s a thunderstorm tonight
And it won′t go away, no it won′t go away

Less Than Jake - We, The Uninspired

Hey Miss "Die A Little"
Cuts and bruises will always heal
But you still pick your poisons
When you dream of alcohol and pills
Hey Miss "Die A Little"
How do you expect yourself to live?

Punch me awake.
We′re the uninspired
There′ll be no white flags over the heads
Of the sick and tired
This world is for the living not the dead
But we′re still the uninspired

Hey Mr. "Always Wonder"
Why′s the inside of your head so filled?
You can′t see your future
Through all the walls that you′ve ever built
Hey Mr. "Always Wonder"
How do you expect yourself to live?

Punch me awake.
We′re the uninspired
There′ll be no white flags over the heads
Of the sick and tired
Maybe its the standing still that kills
What′s alive inside us?
This world is for the living not the dead
But we′re still the uninspired

March me in with the rank and file,
Bury me in deep denial,
I′ll sit here and gladly smile,
With the rest of the uninspired

Punch me awake.
We′re the uninspired
There′ll be no white flags over the heads
Of the sick and tired
Maybe its the standing still that kills
What′s alive inside us?
This world is for the living not the dead
But we′re still the uninspired

Less Than Jake - Motown Never Sounded So Good

[Roger:]
So you say, all your white flags are up and that you′ve had enough and that you were tired of
collecting dust, you say everything always looks the same and you made your brand new face to match
your brand new place, you say all your distress calls have gone out and your ship is going down

[Pre-chorus]
[Chris:]
Well I say it to myself all the time,
"Stop living half and a life and stop feeling like I′m half alive."

[Chorus]
[Roger:]
I can′t get enough, I′m not satisfied, I′ve wasted my time with this daily grind, in single file
line, is this real life, I′ve been telling myself sometimes, what matters is on the inside.

[Roger:]
Do you remember when we had all the answers, and can you really remember when we wished for anything
better, just to feel like it′s been forever, does it feel like a broken record, a head full of
yesterdays, you keep wishing your life away, you can′t keep looking over you own shoulder, things′ll
never look up unless you start to move forward.

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus]

[Chorus 2]
[Roger:]
I can′t get enough, I′m not satisfied, I′ve wasted my time with this daily grind, I can′t get
enough, I′m just getting by, I can′t stand this design for our bitter lives, I keep feeling lost and
I′m not satisfied with traffic and turnpikes and these tired eyes

Less Than Jake - Look What Happened (Last Time)

And I swear it′s the last time and I swear it′s my last try
and we′ll walk in circles around this whole block
walk on the cracks of the same old sidewalks
then we′ll talk about leaving town
yeah we′ll talk about leaving
I swear it′s the last time, and I swear it′s my last try

We rode across that bridge all night
we talked our way through city lights
traced all the lines, we′re killing time
under those buzzing signs
from downtown to anywhere but here
tonight, yeah, I swear to these rooftops
and just hoped that car would never stop

[Chorus:]
And I swear it′s the last time and I swear it′s my last try
and we′ll walk in circles around this whole block
walk on the cracks of the same old sidewalks
and we′ll talk about leaving town
and we′ll talk about leaving
I swear it′s the last time and I swear it′s my last try

We drove around this place all night
past closed signs and familiar sights
we′re moving by, passing time
counting those center lines
with 20,000 lines left to go
that lead to somewhere I don′t know
it might be the time that we leave this all behind

[Chorus]

And there′s been a few times
that we thought it felt right
to take all the westbound signs
and just leave town tonight

And I swear it′s the last time and I swear it′s my last try
and we′ll walk in circles around this whole block
walk on the cracks of the same old sidewalks
and we′ll talk about leaving town
yeah we′ll talk about leaving
I swear it′s the last time and I swear it′s my last try
and I swear it′s my last try
and we′ll talk about leaving town
and we′ll talk about leaving town

Less Than Jake - She′s Gonna Break Soon

[Chorus:]
She’s gonna break soon
Gonna break soon
Gonna break soon
She’s gonna break soon
Gonna break soon
Gonna break soon
With so many problems in her life it really comes as no surprise
She’s gonna break soon
Gonna break soon
She’s gonna break

Welcome to her busy dizzy life
Of going out and getting high
And following all the latest trends
While shedding all her oldest friends
It’s been weeks worth of weekends
when fake I.D.s and fake passions are her best friends.

[Chorus]

She’s been thinkin’ wishin’ she could hide
From the girls with the comments passing by
It’s the boys in bars on Friday night
That replace the emptiness inside
She’ll be spending her whole weekend
Faking laughs and faking smiles with her fake friends

[Chorus]

Promises you made back home
Are crumpled like the goodbye notes
And last night’s dirty clothes
Were on the floor next to the phone
And it’s been disconnected months ago
No calls from your friends back home
You lost your point of view and now
It’s got the best of got the best of got the best of you

[Chorus]

Less Than Jake - Best Wishes To Your Black Lungs

By this time tomorrow
You′ll be out on the streets of Chicago
Walking all the way home from commuter trains

By this time tomorrow
You′ll be back home in Chicago
At the bars until they close
Back at the places that you′ve known and
It′l be skylines and rooftops
And it′s gunna be crowded tourist stops

So it′s goodbye
To your brand new life
So it′s good luck
Best wishes to your black lung

By this time tomorrow
You′ll be walking home thru Chicago
Past the nine to five crowds and underneath
Those unused fire escapes
By this time tomorrow
You′ll be at the bars in Chicago
Back with people that you know
Going places you used to go
It′s gunna be skyline and rooftops
And it′s gunna be crowded tourist stops

So it′s goodbye
To your brand new life
So it′s good luck
Best wishes to your black lung
So when you′re leaving the party just to beat the crowd
Just make sure that you′re the first one out

Less Than Jake - Don′t Fall Asleep On The Subway

I could hear all the plans we had when the wind hits me just right
and i′m so sick of wanting all the things i′m haunted by
my sympathy goes to the oldest joke that′s survived another year
i wonder where i′m going from where i′m at i wonder why i′m still here.
the writing on the subway walls reminds me why your words don′t
console me anymore while i′m lying wide awake on my bedroom floor.
i′m the lucky one, i′m getting out of here this is my last chance to disappear.
i′m the lucky one, i′m getting out of here, i think i may freeze on the last
days of summertime. the local papers always opened up to obituaries
and engagements cause i keep track of all the fresh starts and he dying famous
and there′s a hate of second-hand smoke underneath the summer stars
along with conversations we had on this subway car. the writing on the subway
walls reminds me why your words don′t console me anymore while i′m lying
wide awake on my bedroom floor. i′m the lucky one, i′m getting out of here
this is my last chance to disappear, i′m the lucky one, i′m getting out of here,
i think i may freeze on the last days of summertime. remember when, when you said,
you said take these words and do what you want with them. the writing on the subway
walls reminds me why your words don′t console me anymore, while i′m lying wide awake
on my bedroom floor. i′m the lucky one, i′m getting out of here this is my last
chance to disappear. i′m the lucky one, i;m getting out of here, i think
i may freeze on the last days of summertime.

Less Than Jake - This One′s Gonna Leave A Bruise

This blood that′s in our veins it,
Carries all of these mistakes that we′ve ever made,
When we′re not thinking straight.
Don′t remember every name,
But it seems like every face is back at the place,
The same place they′ve tried to escape.

Tonight′s a party for the misfits doing time. (woah)
Not giving up, just getting by.
Sticking it out through hardest times.
Tonight′s a party for the misfits doing time.
Just standing in this crowded room,
Still makes me feel alive.

These thoughts stuck in our brains were,
Were razor sharp but all the years made them fade,
Or wrote them in a way.
It′s years of sleeping late and drinking everyday and,
It′s the same things we blamed,
The same things we′ve tried to escape.

Tonight′s a party for the misfits doing time. (woah)
Not giving up, just getting by.
Sticking it out through hardest times.
Tonight′s a party for the misfits doing time.
Just standing in this crowded room,
Still makes me feel alive.

This smokey crowded and cloudy room,
Flashes me back to my misspent youth.
So when i walk home drunk and I wake up bruised,
I′d like to thank each of you. [x2]

I′d like to thank each of you...
You.. you..
I′d like to thank each of you...
You.. you..
I′d like to thank each of you.

Less Than Jake - The Upwards War And Down Turned Cycle

All my friends always talk about
The stories of moving on and getting out
Then packing up and heading south
Their heads full of hopes and dreams
They’re just like me

My friends aren’t going anywhere
My friends all act so unaware
Now that they have to face
Their best plans have all gone up in flames

They’re just looking for something to take
To break up the day to day and all its
Loneliness, vacant space
The tragedy of minimum wage

All my friends always talk about
The stories of moving on and getting out
Then packing up and heading south
Their heads full of hopes and dreams
They’re just like me

My friends are worried about last calls
And working jobs at shopping malls
Because they’re in between
A mixed up pride and apathy
So tonight they’ll talk of call in
Calling in with bitter grins
Laughing at the state they’re in
What a mess, I’m just like them

All my friends always talk about
The stories of moving on and getting out
Then packing up and heading south
Their heads full of hopes and dreams
They’re just like me

So they’re sleep walking their way through life
Sitting there and getting by
Like all the other friends of mine
Wishing for something more
Wishing for something more

All my friends always talk about
The stories of moving on and getting out
Then packing up and heading south
Their heads full of hopes and dreams
They’re just like me

Less Than Jake - The Space They Can′t Touch

So you′re feeling like you′re just a waste of space now.
And you keep feeling like you′re always out of place.
Don′t you think it′s strange you always feel the same now?
So you′re feeling like you′re just a waste of space now.
And you keep feeling like you′re always out of place.
Don′t you think it′s strange you always feel the same now?
Who measure the desperate measures,
When it gets too much remember.

There is a space, they just can′t touch.
And this pressures on to be good enough.
It′s all the words,
That add weight trying to drag you down.

So you′re feeling like you′re just a powder keg now?
And you keep feeling like you′ve been a cast away.
Don′t you think it′s strange that it won′t go away now.
So you think you′re feeling like you can′t be saved now?
And you keep feeling like everyone′s taking aim,
Do you feel you′re pushed and pulled and forced to change now?
Who measure the desperate measures,
When it gets too much remember.

There is a space, they just can′t touch.
And this pressures on to be good enough.
It′s all the words,
That add weight trying to drag you down.

So remember you′re still bulletproof,
Remember the face stares back at you.
No matter what they say,
No matter what they do.
It can′t be taken away from you.
It can′t be taken away and that′s the truth.

So you′re feeling like you′re just a waste of space now?
And you keep feeling like everyone′s taking aim.
Don′t you think it′s strange you always feel the same now?
Who measure the desperate measures,
When it gets too much remember.

There is a space, they just can′t touch.
And this pressures on to be good enough.
It′s all the words,
That add weight trying to drag you down.

It′s all the words,
That add weight trying to drag you down.

It′s all just words that add weight,
Trying to drag you down.

Less Than Jake - Antidote For The Underdog

Stop the car and let me out
I′ve got a bad case, I can′t stay here right now
Condition; my small town, Prognosis; let′s get out
What′s left except interstates and out-of-town plates

I′m more than all the cell phone towers
I′m more than all these warning baring streets
I′m more than all these small town skylines
More than they thought I′d turn out to be

Let me get this off my chest
Every bad idea I′ve had is starting to make sense
Feel emotionless, becoming powerless
What′s left except making lists and late night double shifts

I′m more than all the cell phone towers
I′m more than all these warning baring streets
I′m more than all these small town skylines
I′m more than they thought

It′s always I want more and what I wish for
It′s the never-ending cycle of always being bored
Finding an antidote for the underdog
And an anthem for the idling side

I′m more than all the cell phone towers
I′m more than all these warning baring streets
I′m more than all these small town skylines
I′m more than they thought I′d turn out to be

Less Than Jake - Surrender

[Originally by Cheap Trick]

Mother told me, yes, she told me I′d meet girls like you.
She also told me, "Stay away, you′ll never know what you′ll catch."
Just the other day I heard a soldier falling off some Indonesian junk that′s going round.

Mommy′s alright, Daddy′s alright, they just seem a little weird.
Surrender, surrender, but don′t give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.

Father says, "Your mother′s right, she′s really up on things."
"Before we married, Mommy served in the WACS in the Philippines."
Now, I had heard the WACS recruited old maids for the war.
But mommy isn′t one of those, I′ve known her all these years.

Mommy′s alright, Daddy′s alright, they just seem a little weird.
Surrender, surrender, but don′t give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.

Whatever happened to all this season′s losers of the year?
Ev′ry time I got to thinking, where′d they disappear?
When I woke up, Mom and Dad are rolling on the couch.
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out.

Mommy′s alright, Daddy′s alright, they just seem a little weird.
Surrender, surrender, but don′t give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.

Away.
Away.

Less Than Jake - Does The Lion City Still Roar?

I’ll keep my faith alive
Cause this is paradise or parricide
I can’t believe this sight
Streets full of blank faces and junky eyes
The streets won’t sleep tonight
A lullaby for the half-alive
The city swings and whines
To the double crime of drugs and hard times

Lion city sirens sing the night away, night away
Lion city sirens sing the night away
The city feels like a cage
Feels like a powder keg
That’s almost set to explode

Lion city’s begun to rot
It’s a matter of time until the roaring stops
The scene from the ground up
From the painted walls to the rooftops
My city’s closed and locked
While the hop of the beat crack our sidewalks
The haves and the have-nots
Paint the backdrops of drugs and gunshots

lion city sirens sing the night away, night away
Lion city sirens sing the night away
There’s an overdose on me
And he does the cocaine shake
Cause the lion city sirens sing the night away

The city seems like it’s trapped
Between its future and its past
Life or death of a city not coming back
The city feels like a cage
Feels like a powder keg
And now it’s gonna explode

Lion city sirens sing the night away, night away
Lion city sirens sing the night away
There’s an overdose on me
And it’s wearing out good things
Cause lion city sirens sing the night away
Sing the night away
Sing the night away
And I won’t be long

Less Than Jake - The Brightest Bulb Has Burned Out

You told me that your 20 years have gone by much too fast
And you′ve been hoping this year will be better than the last
You said you′ve been waging a war against the loneliest of nights
With the strongest drinks and longest lines
It′s not that big of a surprise
That you′re feeling more dead than alive
You′re feeling more dead than alive

So I′ll let you know
If you need, somewhere to go
I′ll be listening when you call
And I′ll be there if you fall off
If you need someone to believe in you,
I′ll let you know I will

You said the hole in your head has gotten bigger than the hole that′s in your chest
And you′re stuck between the past and the present tense
You said you′ve been waging a war against so many years of lies
With stronger drinks and stronger lines

That you′re feeling more dead than alive
You′re feeling more dead than alive

And I was voted the first one to crumble and break

Less Than Jake - Fall Apart

Frustration that I′ve been facing
I don′t remember how but I′ve lost motivation
I can′t stop this sinking feeling from creeping over me
I can′t stop myself seeing the darkness in front of me

It′s not that hard to just fall apart, fall apart.
It′s not that hard to just fall apart, I′m falling apart.
It′s not that hard to just fall apart, from the start.
It′s not that hard to just fall apart, I′m falling apart.

Repeating, I keep retreating,
I don′t remember how, but I lost all my meaning.
Can′t stop mistakes I′m making from hanging over me,
Can′t stop myself from facing the darkness in front of me.

It′s not that hard to just fall apart, fall apart.
It′s not that hard to just fall apart, I′m falling apart.
It′s not that hard to just fall apart, from the start.
It′s not that hard to just fall apart, I′m falling apart.

I remember when I′m reaching my breaking point,
Pressure pushing on me till I lost my voice,
I don′t think I ever had a choice,
With this every day decay and destroy.

It′s not that hard to just fall apart, fall apart.
It′s not that hard to just fall apart, I′m falling apart.
It′s not that hard to just fall apart, from the start.
It′s not that hard to just fall apart, I′m falling apart.

The cycle circles, stalls, then spins.
Describes the current state I′m in.
It′s like a nose dive then a crash,
With all my blackouts and scraped hands.

It′s in the how did I get home?
I′d like to sleep my life away.
But I′d just wake up years too late.

Less Than Jake - Goodbye In Gasoline

My lungs are aching
From the cold from being outside.
And the windows in my car
Have started to fog up.
And it′s colder then I remember it ever being in Florida.

My stomach′s burning
And the stereo in this car is screaming so loud.
It′s 3 in the morning
I′m just starting to wake up.
And it′s darker then I remember it ever being in Florida.

The saddest song always plays
On the radio on the worst days,
So I′m saying goodbye in gasoline.
It′s the only way I know

My head in spinning
And this engine is humming and clicking in time.
To the pounding in my head
And this heart on my sleeve
And it′s quieter then I remember.
And it can go on forever.

Do you know how many times
How many times I′ve counted the signs of State lines
and roads I′ve known.
I know, this time, feels like goodbye.

My lungs are aching
From the cold from stading outside.
And it′s no surprise that we′re fucked up.
But you′re colder then I remember
you ever being in Florida

Less Than Jake - Sleep It Off

I might as well just sleep it off
wishful thinking′s got my wires crossed (whoa ho)
when i am desperate and alone
i know i know i know how low i go

so i′ll drive and disapear
and maybe if i′m luck by this time next year
no one i know will know my name
it′s either change or go or i′ll explode today
i′ll leave a note on my machine
unplug the phone and finish packing all my things
i found a photograph of me
its been such a slow decay
day to day i don′t even recognize my own face

i had another breakdown
and i′m floating face down
i might as well just sleep it off
wishful thinking′s got my wires crossed (whoa ho)
when i am desperate and alone
i know i know i know how low i go

i′m going to sleep it off
this sinking feeling of always feeling lost
hasn′t been that long
six years worth of always being wrong
i met an old friend out on the street
trade stories and out of date memories
and she has a photograph of me it′s been such a slow decay day to day
did we seem much happier in those days

Less Than Jake - City Of Gainesville

We have our master plan bottled and canned living in the 352

So sleep tight in this smoky room still buzzed from this afternoon and I
I may be going broke but I’m never broken down
