I've got the gift of one liners
So I started listening to this cd lisa's sister gave to me a long time ago and it has some of the most amazing bands on it i never knew i had, i need to post these so i never forget about them they are now apart of my heart and fill that void inside the memories i never had a soundtrack for. There is many more on that cd but for right now these are the only ones i can find, the first band is amazing sounds like the weakerthens but better.
"I DONT CARE IF IT'S THE MOON, WE WENT" (this one i constantly repeat over and over the piano in it's out-fuckin-standin)
If I act like I own the place it’s because I do
You put strikes through your zeros
And you go faster than signs aid you to
You see my left side is my strong side
And it’s pumping the song of a long night
And a chorus for this weekend
This is for you and them
I’ve got 76 inches and 88 keys
To get me where I want to be
It’s not enough
But now please cover these keys
Because I am putting shame to porcelain
I can’t just breathe now
Cause I’m loosing the battle between thick and thin
So many nouns and so many hateful things
You directed to them
These lines are from you in case you forgot
Because I already know you do
I’ve got 76 inches and 88 keys
To get me where I want to be
It’s not enough
This is cruelty in melody
This is the bouclé I never gave
Now this conversation is over
So grab that cell phone and do it quick
You gotta look busy
You gotta look more important than me
I’ve got 76 inches and 88 keys
To get me where I want to be
It’s not enough
"THE CURSE OF CURVES"
I've got the gift of one liners
And you've got the curse of curves
And with this gift I compose words
And the question that comes forward
Are you perspiring from the irony
Or sweating to these lyrics
And this just in
You're a dead fit
But my wit won't allow it
The inside lingo had me at hello
And we go where the money goes
The inside lingo had me at hello
And we go where the money goes
I want someone provocative and talkative
But it's so hard when you're shallow as a shower
And from what I've heard with skin you'll win
Her bone structure screams
"Touch her! Touch her!"
And she's got the curse of curves
So with the combination of my gift with one liners
And my way
My way with words
It seems I'm too hip to keep tight lips
And you're on the gossip team
You're making something out of nothing
And jealousy is the cause the causing of grieve
The inside lingo had me at hello
And we go where the money goes
The inside lingo had me at hello
And we go where the money goes
I want someone provocative and talkative
But it's so hard when you're shallow as a shower
And from what I've heard with skin you'll win
Her bone structures screams (I want someone)
"Touch her! Touch her!"
And she's got the curse, the curse of: (I want someone)
From what I heard with skin you'll win
We All have teeth that can bite underneath
To where the reality grows
Yeah, that's where mine go
that's where mine go
We all have teeth that can bite underneath
To where the reality grows
Yeah that's where mine go
The reality grows:
From what I've heard with skin you'll win
And From what I've heard with skin you'll win
I want someone provocative and talkative
But it's so hard when you're shallow as a shower
And from what I've heard with skin you'll win
Her bone structures screams (I want someone)
"Touch her! Touch her!"
And she's got the curse, the curse of: (I want someone)
From what I heard with skin you'll win
With skin you'll win
Skin you'll win
"LYRICAL LIES"
A old man gave me a tip he said
“don’t waste your time with politics” he said
“just chase skirts instead”
“life is too short, and your almost dead” he said
“I met a woman once, I gave her my best shot”
“but never did I talk”
“if I had her back I’d be as real as my age”
“I so don’t blame them, I wouldn’t do the same”
“but I can blame them, I’d Sing her this”
you want to be dressed in poetry
but imagery doesn’t fit
and you want resizing
but darling dear get a grip
and I think what I just wrote is going over my head
I’m stealing lines from myself
And what I said was never said
Its just a lyrical lie
Made up in my mind
And you want to be dressed in poetry
but imagery doesn’t fit
and you want resizing
but darling dear get a grip
you’re moving but not aware
your’re drowsy without a care
except keeping your whites behind your lids
and your lids are your best canvas
I can only imagine what your painting
And your body on my mattress is proof
And your makeup on your pillow is proof
But do you think I am telling you the truth
And you want to be dressed in poetry
but imagery doesn’t fit
and you want resizing
but darling dear get a grip
"MY HEART IS THE WORST KIND OF WEAPON"
I spent most of last night dragging this lake
for the corpses of all my past mistakes
sell me out - the joke's on you
we are salt - you are the wound
empty another bottle
and let me tear you to pieces
this is me wishing you
into the worst situations
I'm the kind of kid
that can't let anything go
but you wouldn't know a good thing
if it came up and slit your throat
Woah[x2]
Ooo
Woah[x2]
Your remorse hasn't fallen on deaf ears
rather ones that just don't care
cause I know
that you're in between arms somewhere
next to heartbeats
where you shouldn't dare sleep
Now I'll teach you a lesson
for keeping secrets from me
Take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while
[x2]
And did you hear the news?
I could dissect you
and gut you on this stage
not as eloquent as I may have imagined
but it will get the job done (you're done)
every line is plotted and designed
to leave you standing
on your bedroom window's ledge
and everyone else that it hits
that it gets to
is nothing more than collateral damage
Take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while
[x2]
"Love Will Tear Us Apart"
When routine bites hard
and ambitions are low
And resentment rides high
but emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways,
taking different roads
Love, love will tear us apart again
And love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Why is this bedroom so cold?
Turned away on your side.
Is my timing that flawed,
our respect runs so dry?
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
And love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Do you cry out in your sleep?
All my feelings exposed.
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just can't function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
And love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
"Nobody Puts Baby In The Corner"
Drink down that Gin and Kerosene,
And come spit on bridges with me,
Just to keep us warm.
Light a match to leave me be.
Light a match to leave me be.
I keep my jealousy close,
'Cause it's all mine.
And if you say this makes you happy,
Then I'm not the only one lying.
[Chorus: x2]
Keep quiet,
Nothing comes as easy as you.
Can I lay in your bed all day?
I'll be your best kept secret
And your biggest mistake.
The hand behind this pen relives a failure every day.
And I keep my jealousy close,
'Cause it's all mine.
And if you say this makes you happy,
Then I'm not the only one lying.
Drink down that Gin and Kerosene,
And come spit on bridges with me,
Just to keep us warm.
Light a match to leave me be.
Light a match to leave me...
[Chorus x2]
So wear me like a locket around your throat.
I'll weigh you down.
I'll watch you choke.
You look so good in blue.
You look so good in blue.
[x3]
[During 3rd repeat:]
(Keep quiet,
Nothing comes as easy as you.
Can I lay in your bed all day?
You look so good in blue.
You look so good in blue.)
[Chorus x3]
[comes back in during chorus 2nd time:]
(So wear me like a locket around your throat.
I'll weigh you down.
I'll watch you choke.
You look so good in blue.
You look so good in blue.)
I wish my old phone would turn on so i can get lisa's number out and call her and tell her thank you for exposing me to good music her and her sister both. and find out whats she listening to now.
