accident prone

i wanted to post this. this is my favorite jawbreaker song.





What's the furthest place from here?
It hasn't been my day for a couple years.
What's a couple more?
And if I go, don't forget the one good thing I almost did.
I learned your name without words.
I used my eyes, not my hands.
What's the closest you can come to an almost total wreck and still walk away,
All limbs intact?
And when I go, you'll be there crying out, begging me.
I won't hear.
I'll just go fast into this night on broken legs.
A near miss or a close call?
I keep a room at the hospital.
I scratch my accidents into the wall.
I couldn't wait to breathe your breath.
I cut in line,
I bled to death.
I got to you, there was nothing left.
What's the meanest you can be to the one you claim to love
And still smile to your new found friends?
In the same confusing breath,
You pull away and draw me in.
I wanted you. You wanted more.
I built this life and now it's mine.

Redemption For The Innocent

this is my favorite all out war song. i've been listening to them a lot recent. in a close second would be "claim your innocence".




Victims of damnation, drowning in the lies.
Fallen angels of torment, father cease the cries.
In our time we've slaughtered the innocent,
Raped the world in our discontent.
God's creation in disarrary, by the father we have betrayed.
Need proof, just look to our past, strangled life amidst our grasp.
Self destruction we're lost to see, take and take for all our needs.
In a time of innocence, we have poisoned the Earth.
Destroyed the innocent, disgraced our birth.
Revenge upon us by the father's hand.
Witness to apocalypse, and the downfall of man.
All out war, war. All out war, redemption for the innocent,
And the seekers of peace. Ignorance,
Tomb of the masses reaping the piles inside.
Wreaking to divine intervention, by the father's hand.
Welcome to the days of affliction, and the downfall of man.
Sky's are burning, as blood flows.
Lost in torment, our lost souls, creation is in flames.
Man's existence, is to blame





8/11/08

yes i've listening to saves the day(a.k.a. saves the gay.. haha) a lot in the last few weeks. i know this is totally on the opposite side of the music spectrum from all out war but i like a lot of different music. i decided to choose to songs that are 4 of my favorites. you can make fun of me for liking them but it's all good. i'm not afraid to admit it..

rocks tonic juice magic




Let me take this awkward saw
And run it against your thighs
Cut some flesh away
I'll carry this piece of you with me
Because all I can say tonight
is that I hate you
But it would be all right
If we could see each other sometime
If I could somehow make you mine
And if not I'll take my rusty spoons
And dig out your blue eyes
I'll swallow them down to my colon
They're gonna burn like hell tonight
Because you're beautiful
Just not on the inside
Light comes from within
And your beaming eyes don't seem so bright
My heart is on the floor
Why don't you step on it?
When I think of all the things you've done
Boardwalks and breaking waves
Made our Saturdays
I'd buy you lemonade right now
if you were here
But then I'd throw it in your face
And I'd listen to you cry
And I'd remember how I miss
our nights under ocean skies
You and I are like when fire
and the ocean floor collide.


shoulder to the wheel


And I say, "Just go.
Please, Dave, just drive.
Get us as far as far can be.
Get us away from tonight."
And I say, "Oh, Dave, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to yell,
But I'm having quite a bad week
And I miss my mom."
And we drive
Dave steps on the gas
The world that's flying by is slick and smooth
Just big waves of light
The radio is playing Queen
And we're rocking out
We're going now
'Cause, hey, this is it
This is where we are
Out here where silence is
Seventy miles an hour and the windows up tight
And I am home.

freakish



As I'm talking my words slip to the floor
and they crawl through your legs and slide under the back door
rendering me freakish and dazed.
Well here I am. I don't know how to say this.
The only thing I know is awkward silence.
Your eyelids close when you're around me to shut me out.
So I'll go walking in the streets until my heels bleed
and I'll sing out my song in case the birds wish to sing along.
And I'll dig a tunnel to the center of the universe.
Well here I am. I don't know how to say this.
The only thing I know is awkward silence.
Your eyelids close when you're around me to shut me out.
I'll make my way across the frozen sea, beyond the blank horizon,
Where i can forget "you and me" and get a decent night's sleep.
Well here I am. I don't know how to say this.
The only thing I know is awkward silence.
Your eyelids close when you're around me to shut me out.
Don't shut me out.


take our cars now - all the songs off of i'm leaving are great but my personal favorite.



Don't you remember the last time we were speeding down this highway?
Anna slept in the back seat, dreaming in the autumn heat.
We turned up the country radio.
I said, "if you want me just say so."
I slicked back my hair in the wind.
I told you I didn't want my picture taken but you snapped it anyway.
Now I guess you won't have trouble remembering me someday.
So I floored it and swerved around the lanes.
I kept wishing it were you instead of me behind the wheel
so maybe with my camera I could steal a shot of you
and go home to put it in my room.
Maybe you'll never remember me.
Maybe my face will lose these scars,
'cause sometimes they keep me home at night
where I duck under the covers and wince when I see the light.
