So-So Suicide
by Finger Eleven
I felt the blisters
Below the words
A universe waiting to explode
And I felt the words crawl out of my skull
And now you know
Exactly what you should
Don’t bother pretending I seem fine
I like that I’m a mess
I can’t stand it much longer in my head
I think it’s time for bullets
Became so-so suicidal
And now I know the ugly from the good
Don’t bother pretending I seem fine
I like that I’m a mess
I can’t stand it much longer in my head
I think it’s time for bullets
Don’t bother pretending I seem fine
I’m trying to confess
I can’t stand it much longer in my head
But it’s not time for bullets
Don’t bother pretending I seem fine
I like that I’m a mess
I can’t stand it much longer in my head
I think it’s time for bullets
Don’t bother pretending I seem fine
I’m trying to confess
I can’t stand it much longer in my head
But it’s not time for bullets

I know this is one of their new songs but I recently discovered their old music, because they were on Much Music and I saw them play Good Times, from their self-titled CD from 2003, and I was hooked. So, I went and downloaded all their old albums from iTunes that day. The only CD by them that I had was the new one, Them vs. You vs. Me. I like it but I just never got into it. I really like Paralyzer, and that was the only reason I bought the CD. I like a few other songs on it but I got tired of them pretty fast. I haven’t gotten sick of their old stuff at all yet. I’ve listened to all of them about an average of 10 times (according to iTunes lol) since I downloaded them. Since I have all of Finger Eleven’s music open in iTunes when I’m listening to it, I’ve been listening to their new stuff too. I’m starting to like some of the songs a bit better because of that but I still like the old stuff better.
It’s kind of the same as with Linkin Park. I like their old stuff better than their new stuff. I’m still not sick of their old stuff either, but I got bored with most of the songs on their new CD, Minutes to Midnight. And lately, I’ve been listening a lot to old Linkin Park music, up until I got the old Finger Eleven stuff obviously.
