Smile You’ve Won Lyrics
[Verse 1: Leighton Antelman]
Once because we always were there
I'm impressed you've never seemed so scared
And you still don't know
But I found comfort in this bottle and you out of sight
Out of mind and nowhere close to being
Sober straight I've seen that look in me
Don't ever let me see those words on your lips
It's just me, it's just me
So yeah, yeah well now it's peace in the form of a dove
And yeah, yeah it's peace and love or just whatever goes down
Easily, consuming our bodies; it's your fight this night
[Hook]
What the hell's it to me? You still are what I think
(Sky and buildings, lay so neatly)
Keep those pictures around just to stay awake
(Calm that leaves me safely dreaming)
And we wait for winter
And now we wait forever
And now we wait forever
[Verse 2: Leighton Antelman]
It was desire represented by a ring with an angel
I stayed until you fell asleep, but yeah, you fell for me
And lost the ring, so I hope there's still
A piece of me upon your bedroom floor
Where you curl up at night
This nicotine is your air, is your air
Stay to the face but feelings go over your head
Once the sleep comes, it's over
So both of us saw what it was
Everything you were, everything
A favorite of my dreams
You've seen all that is me
So sure you should take that
It's one more mile, just the same
A favorite of my dreams
You've seen all that is me
Some say that
Kings fall from grace
So now we sit like kings amongst this
Crowd is gone so speak to me
[Hook]
What the hell's it to me? You still are what I think
(Sky and buildings, lay so neatly)
Keep those pictures around just to stay awake
(Calm that leaves me safely dreaming)
[Outro: Maria Sais De Sicilia]
So, some nights she still charms her way out
And hopes to leave with a morning of sleep
It’s in Your Blood Lyrics
4 ContributorsIt’s In Your Blood LyricsI can't stay over you
It seems we drive forever
But can never get away from here
Just one more try
I'm guessing you are over me
I guess it's bravery
Because it's black out the window
While you sleep in the passenger seat
It's gone
When it's always on your mind
But you never speak the name
It's in your blood and face
And I'm certain it's fame
(So I stayed in the car
Because the weather had gotten to me
But it's really these road signs and freeways
That I can't take)
This can't be how you live
It's like a ball and chain around your waist
Or a simple state
Your mind is sick again
I'm tasting nothing but four words
("Please don't leave me")
And it's dark in the winter
So your ideas will start to sleep
Well, your head is spinning like that carousel
And I know you're a mess after three or four
But if you make it different
Then we'll make our way to the surface
And your favorite place
(We sit and we breathe
Because I know all the words
And I sing you everything
Well they're just thoughts
So go ahead and speak)
So pick out what you like
And call me when you're on the way
You can spend the night
And hope to sleep all day
For me it's just another week
Twenty-eight was once how I dreamed
With your scent on my face
I can leave and have you for days
(I still can't see you
The summer came
And we got lost, all of us)
You are nothing without her
I still won't remember your face
The features mix too well with this alcohol
So we covered ourselves in your fear
And stayed to watch that moon
Disappear under these lights
This city, this city's screaming at me
And as you breathe the words "I'd better go"
The sun is up and taking back all the shadows
That covered this ground and our feet
Like a blanket of coal
A Story for Supper Lyrics
1 ContributorA Story for Supper LyricsThis place is going dead
Snap our picture, let's go
Down outside
You're so perfect in pink
A black bracelet, I could never forget
So let's drink up tonight
You say, you say it
It's running through my veins
Well please stay safe, you're seventeen
Limousine will take us to meet the crowds
Never seen room for mistake
But your best way out was her
(So what's this day after day?)
Dresses and alcohol join
(And your emotions so dull)
Ill bring you back to your
(So what's the drugs have to say?)
Car first. So why we cry?
(And we will soon forget)
Now we're safe, and so sound
"I can hear your heartbeat", she whispers in the car
Well travel east until you see Ironwood
Now it's understood: it's finally kicked in
And as we stop by this gathering of fire at the rocks
I've forgotten this whole world, and here's to one more
A story told to scare, a tale to replace
Words of no real meaning, and such awful taste-
Less lips
(So what's this day after day?)
Dresses and alcohol join
(And your emotions so dull)
I'll bring you back to your car first
(So what's the drugs have to say?)
So why we cry?
(And we will soon forget)
Let's say we were better than our bodies were found
And I saw her. There she goes, and there she goes
Her bright face, her bright smile, can't change that
I never knew that a night could end so, so, so, so
So there we were minutes from making it
Celebrate we're finally done and gone
And though this highway is all too long
One more mile to the hotel
This music's soft and it sounds so good to me
But you taste of liquor and who will care
I almost fought to the death
Yet death had come to this fight
Look, look, now let's see who
One twenty-two
I softly worried not saying a word to the driver
Just sing your favorite verse out of key
I still think it sounds so good to me
Let it go!
I bet you love me now, now that you've had your drinks
Oh it's been fun but it's ooo--
This girl
Loves fear
Well this can wait, I can stay, he said it's up here on the right
Wait no I don't know, it's safe
Where did you go when
Now all I see are faces
Pale to the touch
Close your eyes and sing
We're lost
But the car had too much force to it
And the road is so unforgiving
Windows shatter like dust and make
Glass streets and something for our feet
But she asked can we slow down
Traffic is time, so we drove and we drove and we drove
Cause all we lost was years
Oh well
Think of this, think of me
And we will
(And we will soon forget)
We'll say we were better than our bodies were found
And I saw you, but there she goes and there she goes
Her bright face, her bright smile, we can't change that
We'll say we were better than our bodies were found
And I saw you, but there she goes and there she goes
Her bright face, her bright smile, we can't change that
There she goes and there she goes
Her and Haley Lyrics
2 ContributorsHer And Haley LyricsFollow me down to fake streets so far
We were way to young, but now they're stars
Cause someone's talking of blood
Standing so cold in photography, their faces knew
And clearly showed every word that nothing comes true
I'm here stuck in this town no more
I hoped you would say, "Scratch the paper
And pass a moment, making us both around your shoulders
Let's go for the walls, never mind who was there
Just think, the night is guilty and my view of the past."
So now it's obvious I've learned to see your bet
Her favorite place to sit, to forget
Cause no one watched or would care
They smile just to be safe, making sure nobody saw
Two dancing girls with their grins, painted on
Cause new years night's to yourself, oh, now it's '73
But you didn't see it, did you?
Minutes call for longer
Finger prints show loss of blood
But being perfect was always hard, wasn't it?
Wasn't it? Wasn't it, to you?
The motivation is hard to find
The screams were heard but never cried
So tell me how do you go through
Tell me what brings us to this place
They will not be afraid
Only two know how sad this gets
The stage is set for them both
And on the bathroom floor, glass ready
There's no turning back now
So when the crowds take the credit all away from you
You broke fate, so wait. I can't stay. I'm gone
Being perfect was always hard, wasn't it?
Wasn't it? Wasn't it, to you?
So pack your bags, I think we're better off on our own
Only for this. I guess I don't mind
Stay safe and you'll be fine
Now and there. It's time to go, let's run
That's enough
Because I bet you wished
Because I bet you wished
(Run away. Kill me tonight) Because I bet you wished
(Run away. Kill me tonight) Because I bet you wished
(Run away. Kill me tonight)
For the better days to come back over you
Now we're dead. I bet you wished
(Run away. Kill me tonight)
For the better days to come back over you
Now we're dead, I bet that you can say you wished
Minutes call for longer
Finger prints show loss of blood
But being perfect was always hard, wasn't it?
Wasn't it, to you?
The screams were heard but never cried
So tell me how do you go...
Tell me what brings us to this place
Only two know how sad this gets
The stage is set for them both
And on the bathroom floor, glass ready...
A Camera Lens and Careful Days Lyrics
2 ContributorsA Camera Lens and Careful Days LyricsIt's always blue and black or breaking skin
Well, cover up, girl, we'll finally leave again
And you breathe me in so well
In your room under the cover of this night
We are safe; we are, as long as you whisper
But my eye was caught by your picture
That's hanging from your mirror, like something you forgot
I'll say we couldn't sleep just staring at the clock
But when numbers seem to blur and the reflection is lost
Anything is love as you stare into your box
So now we're used to the rain
We can swim and I'll say we were never worried
Because the floods will only bring the coast and Atlantic closer
I thought I told you, girl
I thought that I showed you the reason;
All I truly want is to get in your head
And steal your imagery
So we can both go to your second story house
You would never believe this snow
It gets so heavy on our lungs
But it's been creeping up your walls and closing down the roads
But I swear I'm loving while
I swear I still will hide away from the cold
"I think that for me, everyday would be the last day of summer
Or I'd be left out in the cold, with no place to go
Because, there are very few people that I can relate to
To every day of my life, forever, that will understand me
Because I've gone places where very few people ever go
I mean, I played the ultimate gamble of all; I gambled my life."
"You're fine, go back to work and we'll let you know when she comes."
I swear we're almost there and we'll be safe inside
Down those stairs to your room where I could stay for days
Substance is over us, please don't do this
'Cause this may never change, oh, but I'm still here, here
It's all the same
December Lyrics
3 ContributorsDecember LyricsSo it was four or five of everything, as you are no good
I saw it through the frame and through my face
Covering my eyes, because we are nothing
And never quite the same from a black and white summer
With photographs that showed our rails and razorblades
I think it cured my pain, again
Promise you will go down my neck
Just like those pills and your cigarette
So as my fingers curl
I move my lips just so you won't have to
Dammit, you're clever girl
Your style is keeping us from sleep
It's one more and I'm free
Oh we've been so lucky
Yeah we've been so likely to lose
So give in (let's give in)
It's all suicide if I hide
Because you are everywhere I look and in my skin
I taste your neck and lips just from breathing in
Let's call it off kid
But through the window you reach for the cold
But the door is so much closer
And the sun has sold itself to the land
And all over my skin. No! No!
Stop it, stop him
So what, so what, we all were afraid
(So what, so what, we all were afraid)
So what, so what, we all were afraid
(So what, so what, we all were afraid)
So what, so what, we all were afraid
(So what, so what, we all were afraid)
So what, so what, we all
(So what, so what, we all were afraid)
So this I swear I know, it's not the chemicals
You are off my mind I finally got away (away)
You said it's such a life to remember
So come on, and we'll sleep away
December
December
December
I finally saw it's face
It was you
Bringing your white company
Oh, bringing the night so it seemed
(And we will never sleep again)
So as you walk through the door
And yell I'm never coming back here
It's over we are still nothing
