Simon lyrics

Alex: (frustrated) Time and time again, the words are messy and hard
to read...
PC: You Should take your time.
Alex: (reluctant) I'll give it a rest, but I've got plenty of pages left.

Their cold unfeeling pupils are staring back at me
Blink as they've been programmed on and off their pixels flash
The world empire strengthens as voltage powers all

Break It Off lyrics

Take a piece and break it off
Leave the crust; the filling's gone
You take it and run
Now I'm here in the instance of regret
Without you there to save me
Am I the one who's supposed to save you now?
Well I don't remember how

Take a piece and break it off
Leave the crust, but kill yourself
You take it and run
Now I'm here in the instance of regret
Without you there to save me

Candlewax lyrics

cola vida virgin oil

and a crystal chandelier
glass of her don perignon

and my paper cup of beer

i got burned

by the fire we started together

cut the thread

that kept us forever

think of something nice to say

add the mumbling from the singer

everything's a darker shade

as the week now turns to grey

Powered By Scotch lyrics

Drink
Until you forget
Taste the fate of the rest
Won't you have one more glass?

Drink
Until you forget
Taste the fate of the rest
Won't you have one more glass?

Powered by scotch
Alone on a yacht
While the kids run amuck in the house
A bourbon and coke on a table of oak
As the boys lie awake in their beds

Drink
Until you forget
Taste the fate of the rest

Can You See Me Now? lyrics

tell me

what do you see

when you look you the window

a lonely knight
left behind

wonders if he should go

on the horizon tonight

can you see me now?

it's me hoping to beat

this evil cast of thousands

on the horizon tonight

can you see me now?

can you see me now?

can you see me now?

tell me

what do you see

when you look out the window

a lonely knight

left behind

Recently Distressed lyrics

Dear recently distressed,
I am sorry, to inform you,
that I lost your kid's address,
you see my wings are on the fritz,
I can't even get up off the ground,
im really sorry for this mess,
cuz it all came crashing down

[chorus:]
Can I remember,
someone please tell me how to do my job,
or im out of work
speaking frankly, you'll be out of
dear recently distressed.

Can I remember,

So I Fall Again lyrics

I can't say if this feeling coming over me is real,
But I know it's something you cant steal,
So I'll buy another problem to approach,
Sell a virgin lie that cant be touched.

[Chorus:]
So I fall again,
so I fall again,
So I break through this rotten piece of wood,
again

I cant say if this here f*cking subject should be dropped,
But I know its something you can't stop,

Asteroid G lyrics

Just when I needed some time to myself
When I am bothered by nobody else
Sometimes I ponder over what might go wrong
I don't want to wander from where I now belong

Catch the comet and speed off
Catch the comet and speed off today
Leave the earth now and fly free
Go to asteroid G, let's go to asteroid G

So I end up with worse than before
Having to scrape my broken heart off the floor

Lava Light lyrics

this is not who

i want to see

their silent heads

eyeing me
drowning down

into a faceful sea

this is not where i want to be

this is not like the days of old

when i'd come to hide from the cold

but rather a place i visit

often faced with

a mode to the left

clowns to the right

something strange

is here tonight

drifting out

further away from me

Dying of Silence lyrics

So as I stand here dying of silence tonight,
The quiet spell you slung on the ceiling fan
You will return again,

[chorus:]
Why
I ask myself sometimes,
Dine on small talk after school
Why
I ask myself sometimes

So as the mood gets darker and darker tonight,
Can't help but feel a little
uncomfortable alright
you will return again

[chorus]

Why
I ask myself sometimes
Why, why , why

Last Glance lyrics

So the trouble starts as I look up and see I've stopped dead in my tracks
It seems that there is someone watching
She could tell when I was looking at her
I'm not ashamed to say
It was whenever my eyes were open

Her ocean blue eyes once had stared at me before
Time swallows up the sand
She stares in my direction, yeah
I think she's got a guy
That's never stopped me before

Darker Shade lyrics

Oh that the sun shone down today,

Maybe then you'd see me.

Until then there's one more day,

Patiently I'll wait.
Oh that the sky were blue again,

Maybe then I'd smile.

Until then there's one more day,

Patiently I'll wait.

Spotlight on me; Now can you see

there's something wrong?

Tell me that there's something more

than this darker shade of brown.

Bust A Move lyrics

More and more as time goes by your thoughts slip away,
but everywhere I wanna go says I'm under age.
Well how was I to know
that everytime I twist and shout
I must listen to myself, well
come on and bust a move as we dance we loose our innocence.
Well come on, you're only good
just because i fail at everything.
Come on and do what you want to do.
Just shake it loose,

Please Apply Yourself to Me Sweetly lyrics

I am looking for an early warning

Listen to me please

Will you wake me up in the morning?

I am on my knees

Once I said that I had nothing

Misunderstanding

I will try to follow wherever you go

Yeah

Please apply yourself to me sweetly

I am gonna crash

Will you tell me if I am burning?

I was built to lash

Once I said that I had nothing

Misunderstanding

Rise the Setting Star lyrics

1, 2
1, 2, 3

Watching a setting star
I lost myself in orbit
And a comet flew by as I went under

All of this angry space
I'm wasting all my time

I care that you don't know who you are
I can't rise the setting star
And I am looking for a new way out

Watching a burning sun
I lost myself in your eyes
And a comet flew by as I went under

All of this angry space

Devon's Rejection lyrics

Yesterday within the crowded room

He was the king of fools

Everyone loved him just the same
Nothing mattered but the game

Chorus:

Look into the face of a demon

That changes from day to day

Nothing is as pure as good

Except her will to stay

Yesterday within the smoke filled room

He meant nothing to you

Nobody cared to say his name

Everything mattered but the game

Invasion of the Sunlight Snatchers lyrics

All we did was talk about it

And all you ever said to me

Was how the accident was just a big mistake

And so you'll get around it
Making sure I'll never know

I guess we'll laugh about it in a little while

You took it all from me

All I could see

(Ahh, aah, aah)

Now the only scares that didn't stay were skin deep

You took it all from me

All I could see

(Ahh, aah, aah)

She's Gone lyrics

Feel the flow baby..

Ohh yeah.

Gone.
Get gone.

You had your chance to be with me.

So gone.

Get gone.

You had your chance and let it slide.

She's gone, she's gone, she's gone and I don't even care.

Gone.

Get gone.

Go to your droves and manage flies. (?)

So gone.

Get lost.

Go lay some other teenage guy.

Winter Wonderland lyrics

sleighbells ring

are you listening

in the land

snow is glistening
a beautiful sight

we're happy tonight

walking in a winter wonderland

gone away is the bluebird

here to stay is a new bird

he sings you a song

as we go along

walking in a winter wonderland

in the meadow we can build a snow man

and pretend that he is parson brown

he'll ask are you married?

Rise The Setting Star lyrics

1, 2
1, 2, 3

Watching a setting star
I lost myself in orbit
And a comet flew by as I went under

All of this angry space
I'm wasting all my time

I care that you don't know who you are
I can't rise the setting star
And I am looking for a new way out

Watching a burning sun
I lost myself in your eyes
And a comet flew by as I went under

All of this angry space

Grip lyrics

With your black hair smile
And your dark-eye denial
You break me

With your sunglass mirrors
And your tank-top liars
You break me

I won't let you break me down
I won't let you take me down

She's not worth it
She's not worth my time
I gave her everything
I gave her my pride
And now

I'll take it back
And I'll take it all
I'll take it back
And I'll give it to someone else

Nightmare lyrics

There's a nightmare in my closet
Never went away
And all the times I watched it slowly
Growing up afraid
Who was scared to turn and look when I was safe in bed?
Was it there for me that had the ghastly monster's head?

If a nightmare in my closet
Really did exist
Who grew up and noticed that the other one was missed?
Who was scared to turn and look when I was safe in bed?
