Adored Lyrics – The Bravery

Louisiana, in the Bucket of Blood
That's where they met, his eyes were like mud
Cause his whole life he had nothing to see
But he held on to her and he found peace

He'd take her walking down by North Shore
And he always told her
we're meant for much more
We outta go off somewhere so pretty
And then a storm came and fucked up the
Crescent City

And then they were left with nothing
She said nothing's not so bad
It could be the best time that we ever had

Every single day
I can feel them chip, chip chipping away
If only we could run, run from these swine
Oh baby we are wasted in this time
Someday if we try
I know we could fly, fly, fly, fly, fly
We shine like gold
Oh baby we were born to be adored

And I can feel them staring in my face
Like they're dig, dig, digging me,
digging a grave
It's like these people are dead they're so weak
And someone dug them up and gave them
words for their lips to beat

And then they were left with nothing
She said nothing is not so bad
It could be the best time we ever had

Song For Jacob Lyrics – The Bravery

I saw Jacob, he lay in the street
He said the air out here is like amphetamine
And I never ever wanna sleep again
I wanna live till I die

The took all his money and all that he had
But he smiled with his eyes
and his face was bright red
And spit would run from his mouth when he said
I wanna live till I die

'Cause I am alive and there's blood in my arms
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
I will live till I die
Till I die

There's more inside of me than skin and bones
I am born again today and
all my sins are washed away
There's more inside of me than skin and bones

Jacob sat on the roof and he said
Some day the earth will cast out its dead
If you dwell in the dust then wake up and sing
I will live till I die

Jacob smiled when he said to me
I am not waiting on the Red Sea
To open up and rain pearls on me
I will live till I die
Till I die

There's more inside of me than skin and bones
I am born again today
and all my sins are washed away
There's more inside of me than skin and bones

As long as I live and there's blood in my arms
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
This is a day that is brighter than bombs
This is a day that is brighter than bombs.

Slow Poison Lyrics – The Bravery

Burn burn, house on fire
I'm so sick and tired
I can still remember your sound
And it's cut cut cutting me down
I'm locked and loaded
You're so milk and roses
And i am just a letdown of your hound
And It's cut cut cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down like slow poison

Sing me one more hymnal
I have found my angel
Ah-ah-oh
She walks upon the ground
And it's cut cut cutting me down
I'm an the empty can
I'm a stranger in a strange, strange land
Gone, gone, just gone without a sound
And it's cut cut cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down, like slow poison

And all my dreams are only dreams
And all my schemes are only schemes
And if this is my punishment
Then I want my crime to fit

Burn burn house on fire
I'm so sick and tired
I can still remember your sound
And it's cut cut cutting me down
Like slow poison
Cut down, like slow poison
It's cutting me
Like slow poison

Hatefuck Lyrics – The Bravery

If I put my hands around your wrists, would you fight them?
If I put my fingers in your mouth, would you bite them?
So many things that I would do if I had my way with you

I can keep secrets that I know that you want me
You could dig your nails into my skin and you won't stop me
You could twist and scream into the air but no one can hear you here

And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you,
you had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly

While your shouting friends that despise you to your face
What would they say now if they saw you in this place?
Naked and breathless, could you live with this disgrace?
Could you live? Could you live? Could you live with this?

And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you,
you had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly

If I put my hands around your wrists, would you fight them?
If I put my fingers in your mouth, would you bite them?
So many things that I would do if I had my way with you

And there will be no tenderness, no tenderness
There will be no tenderness, no tenderness
I will show no mercy for you,
you had no mercy for me
The only thing that I ask, love me mercilessly
Love me mercilessly

I Am Your Skin Lyrics – The Bravery

And you know me now
like a mother knows a child
And you know me now
like I came from your own body
I can feel your pulse like a moth inside a jar
And even this is still too far
Even this is still too far

I wanna be your skin
I wanna feel everything you feel
I wanna be your covering

So let them come like an army against us
I know you won't be afraid
Because I am the armor upon you now
And we are never betrayed
There is no ending between you and me

I wanna be your skin
I wanna feel everything you feel
I wanna be your covering
And I will hide you inside of me
With every breath in harmony
I wanna be your skin
I wanna be your covering.

She's So Bendable Lyrics – The Bravery

Ain't a soul who's seen
A loser like me
it was she, it was she
She put the devil in me
Wasn't me, wasn't me
I don't have it in me
(That remains to be seen)

Girls like you
Don't need a thing
Cause girls like you
Hate everything

You're gonna kill me
When you hear this song
Does she still love me
Or was I wrong
(I'm losin' track, please take me back)

She's so bendable
She's so bendable
She's so bendable
She's so bendable.

The Spectator Lyrics – The Bravery

The birds are up when he collapses through the door
Spilling out in constellations on the floor
Soaked in liquor he's soft as bread
And everything that's left of him to beckon to his bed

He is a nocturnal always alone
But you'll speak in secret codes
That he has never known
In this world, but not of it
So he watches from above it
A visitor here, this is not home

[Chorus]
I am the spectator
I can see the world passing by from here
I am just a child, to a man
Back to the dust where i began
I was never even here at all
I am the spectator
I am the spectator

His eyes, like two cats, scratching in his head
Begging him for sleep, starving for a bed
But sleep, it never comes
so he ticks the time away
Hour after hour, hear them play their bells go

Chime chime chime, ticking ticking time [x2]

[Chorus]
I am the spectator
I can see the world passing by from here
I am just a child, to a man
Back to the dust where i began
I was never even here at all
I am the spectator
I am the spectator
I am the spectator

And the bells go
Chime chime chime, ticking ticking time [x3]

[Chorus]
I am the spectator
I can see the world passing by from here
I am just a child, to a man
Back to the dust where i began
I was never even here at all
I am the spectator
I am the spectator
I am the spectator

I Have Seen The Future Lyrics – The Bravery

We are faster, faster than pain
We are a nerve ending without a brain
We have evolved, we have no feeling at all
It is a brave new world

Raise a glass in salutation
We'll drink to our annihilation
Was and will just make me ill
It is a brave new world

And we are faster than pain
We are dogs without a name
We are marching soldiers off to claim
The brave, brave, brave new world

I want to dream it all the way
And take a soma holiday
I take a gram and I only am
It is a brave new world

Raise your glass in salutation
We'll drink to our annihilation
Was and will just make me ill
It is a brave new world

And we are faster than pain
We are numbers in a chain
We are marching soldiers off to claim
The brave, brave, brave new world

And we are faster than pain
We are numbers in a chain
We are marching soldiers off to claim
The brave, brave, brave new world

Red Hands And White Knuckles Lyrics – The Bravery

She could be found out dancin'
At ludlow st. and stanton
Oh, you should've seen her
Shake it up like Orangina.
And even though she's a liar
We got on like a house on fire.
Even though she's my friend
We never knew when to say when
Every little move she made was a ticker tape parade
And everything she'd say was a national holiday
And even though she's a liar
No one ever got me higher
And even though she's my friend
We never knew when to say when

With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on

She was at thompkin square
Staring at the grass
Trying to make her eyes turn green
But it never last
And even though she's a liar
No one ever got me higher
Cuz we never knew when to say when
Even though she was my friend

With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on

Over on 5th and C
She got her beers for free
And every time I came in there
She always laughed at me
She said, "Who let this child in here?"
You look like you teach math
Your appled eyes betray
You've never known loneliness

With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on
With red hands and white knuckles
I tried to hold on, I tried to hold on

Jack-O-Lantern Man Lyrics – The Bravery

Oh jack-o-lantern man
We will see who's laughing then
Someday when push comes to shove
We will see who's laughing then
Oh jack-o-lantern man
If you could see the rage inside of me
I could cut my veins and drown you in the flames
and I'd know, I'd know
I would know ecstasy

And I was only seventeen
Stir the blood spill the seed
Psilocybin all the time
Dirty water spill the wine
The birds outside, they never stop
Shut the window call the cops

Oh jack-o-lantern man
I wanna see that smile turn cold surprise
We will see who's laughing then
When I piss in your hollow eyes
I wanna drown you like a kitten in the sink
I wanna see you bleed amethyst
Oh jack-o-lantern man
We will see who's laughing then
with a skull full of piss

And I was only seventeen
Stir the blood spill the seed
Psilocybin all the time
Dirty water spill the wine
Kenneth Anger colored dreams
Underwater hide the screams
The birds outside, they never stop
Shut the window call the cops

Sugar Pill Lyrics – The Bravery

Come, come like sugar my love
Until the bitter taste is gone
These images then burn my eyes
Like the thumbprints of the sun
Come, come everything to please me
Candy canes on parade
Lay me in the sun till every trace is gone
I am bleached away, bleached away
Oh sugar pill I believe you
Oh sugar pill I wanna eat you up up up up
Now I am blissed out
I have kaleidoscope eyes
I'm light as cotton
I am wide as the sky
This is where my thoughts come to die
And I am happy
Oh sugar pill I believe you
Oh sugar pill I wanna eat you up up up up.

"The Sun And The Moon" (2007)

Believe Lyrics – The Bravery

The faces all around me they don't smile they just crack
Waiting for our ship to come but our ships not coming back
We do our time like pennies in a jar
What are we saving for [x2]

There's a smell of stale fear that's reeking from our skins.
The drinking never stops because the drinks absolve our sins
We sit and grow our roots into the floor
But what are we waiting for? [x2]

[chorus:]
So give me something to believe
Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe

Something's always coming you can hear it in the ground
It swells into the air
With the rising
Rising sound
And never comes but shakes the boards and rattles all the doors
What are we waiting for [x2]

[chorus]

I am hiding from some beast
But the beast was always here
Watching without eyes
Because the beast is just my fear
That I am just nothing
Now its just what I've become
What am I waiting for
Its already done

Oh

[chorus]

This Is Not The End Lyrics – The Bravery

Tell me
Come on tell me what you can
Even as you wait for death you're wiser than I am
Tell me what does it mean to exist
I am not a scientist I must believe in more than this
And I can not accept
That everything is real
Is only what our eyes can see
And our hands can feel

[chorus:]
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
Are just as real the time we spent
You always be close to me
My friend
This is not the end

I see
I can see you're so afraid
You wear it like a silver hood on you even fear looks good
I wish I wish I had some words to give
But all I can think to say
Is I'll be with you everyday

[chorus]
Not even earth can hold us
Not even life controls us
Not even the ground can keep us down
The memories in my head
I just realized the time we spent
You'll always be close to me
My friend
This is not the end

La la la la la
This is not the end
La la la l al la
This is not the end

I don't care
I don't care what you believe
As long as you are in my heart
You're just as real as me
Maybe even more
Someone has touched so many lives
Can never never die

[chorus]

Every Word Is A Knife In My Ear Lyrics – The Bravery

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear

Like a snake in a suit spitting into the air
With a tongue like a needle and we're shot full of fear
White picket teeth and a big red alert
The life of the party and we pulled up our skirt

It's like poison
It's like poison

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear

A fool is a devil and a devil's a fool
With a fork-tongue needle and you got us all fooled
A monkey doing tricks and we couldn't resist
If this isn't evil then I don't know what is

It's like poison
It's like poison

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear
Every thought in your head is like poison to hear

Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear

Bad Sun Lyrics – The Bravery

We are lies like the summertime
Like the spring we are such fools
Like fall we are false prophets
Like winter we are cruel

I don't know what's wrong with us
They just made us this way
There's a hole in you and me
That pulls us together

And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me we grew, under a bad sun

Every day you bring me pain
And we savor it like rain
We hold it on our tongues
Just like wine

Someday back when we were young
I guess something just went wrong
The two of us are hung
From the same twisted rope

And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me we grew under a bad sun [2x]

You and me we grew under a bad sun

Time Won't Let Me Go Lyrics – The Bravery

Whenever I look back
On the best days of my life
I think I saw them all on T.V.
I am so homesick now for
Someone that I never knew
I am so homesick now for
Someplace I will never be

Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If I could do it all again
I'd go back and change everything
But time won't let me go

I never had a 'Summer of 69'
Never had a Cherry Valance of my own
All these precious moments
You promised me would come in time
So where was I when I missed mine?

Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If you gave me back those years
I'd do it all better I swear
Time won't let me go

Ba ba ba ba ba...

If I could go back once again
I would change everything, yeah
If I could go back once again
I'd do it all so much better

Time won't let me go
Time won't let me go
If I could do it all again
I'd go back and change everything
But you won't ever let me go

Ba ba ba ba ba...

Tragedy Bound Lyrics – The Bravery

Tragedy Bound
Looking for clues
I'm starting to suspect she likes abuse
I'm starting to feel like she doesn't feel
Is there anybody in there?

Tragedy Bound
She is a mess
Her daddy was a demon watching her dress
He shriveled her down, wore her like a crown
Is there anybody in there?
All her life, she's bound to lose

Tragedy Bound
I feel sick
Her daddy was killed, her feelings were mixed
He wore a hole in her skin, now all the boys look in
Is there anybody in there?

Tragedy Bound
Now she's stuck
She can't even care enough to fuck
She's cutting herself just to see if it works
Is there anybody in there?

All her life, she's bound to lose
Tragedy bound
If I met this man
Whout would I say? How could I speak
How could I speak

Fistful Of Sand Lyrics – The Bravery

Every morning I wake up and you are home
But in your eyes I see that I'm alone
You've left me with your body in my arms
But I can't feel you anymore - You are gone

I can touch your skin but you aren't there
Frustration burns in me, it's more than I can bear
I wanna take you in my fists and squeeze the life back into you
But there is nothing I can do - You are gone
And I can hold you in my hands
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone

You've slipped away like a fistful of sand
You are gone, you are gone, you are gone

I am staring straight into your eyes
You never turn away or tell me lies
But you are with some other man while I am lying next to you
And there is nothing I can do, you are gone

Angelina Lyrics – The Bravery

Oh Angelina
You are the sun and the moon
Every song I ever sang, I stole it from you
I knew that nothing could tear us apart, I never even gave it a second thought
I was so sure and I was wrong, Now every single thing I ever had is gone

Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away

Oh Angelina
I learned my lesson this time
I took you for granted for so long And now I just wanna die
Every thing I ever got, I never even gave it a second thought
I was so sure, I was so sure - Now there's only one thing I know for sure

Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away

[Solo]

Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away

Nothing here is set in stone
Nothing's ever set in stone
Everything I have some day will fall apart and fade away

Nothing here is ever set in stone

Split Me Wide Open Lyrics – The Bravery

Split me wide open and look right inside
There's so many things that I tried to hide
Oh you see right through me
You always see right through me

Split me wide open, and cut me in two
There's nothing that I could ever hide from you
Oh you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me

Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open, you look right through
I give it all to you

Split me wide open, and cut it at all
My hands on your body like a blind man's on a wall
Oh you always show me, you're the only one who shows me

Pinned to a wall, I am hung from a tree
For all these drooling faces that can look up and see

But you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me

Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open and look right through
I give it all to you

Split me wide open
Split me wide open

Is nothing sacred, is nothing saved?
Your gentle eyes like a razor blade
They cut me open, you look right through
I give it all to you

Split me wide open
Split me wide open

Oh you always knew me, you're the only one who knew me

Split me wide open
Split me wide open

Oh you see right through me, you always see right through me

Above And Below Lyrics – The Bravery

Ooowwww
Ooowwww

Sometimes I feel
Like I wanna leave this place for good
Under the ground
I'll live down there without a sound
And never hear
These hissing voices all the same
I'll disappear
Cause living makes me feel ashamed

Ooowwww
Ooowwww

I must believe
There's more above us and below
I must believe
Stranded with this bitch called hope
It keeps me here
When all I wanna do is go
It keeps me here
When all I wanna do is disappear

If this is it
When all we have and ever will
If this is it
Time is running out and standing still
I'll leave today
Cause there's nothing left to keep me here
I'll fade away
I'll turn my back and disappear

The city moves
Lunges up right from the ground
The seething Earth
It opens up and spits us out
This vicious child
Nature never wanted us
This vicious child
A cancer burning black into its heart

If this is it
When all we have and ever will
If this is it
Time is running out and standing still
I'll leave today
Cause there's nothing left to keep me here
I'll fade away
I'll turn my back and disappear

Ooowwww
Sometimes I feel
Like I wanna leave this place for good
Under the ground
I'll live down there without a sound
And never hear
These hissing voices all the same
I'll disappear
Cause living makes me feel ashamed

If this is it
When all we have and ever will
If this is it
Time is running out and standing still
I'll leave today
Cause there's nothing left to keep me here
I'll fade away
I'll turn my back and disappear
I'll turn my back and disappear

The Ocean Lyrics – The Bravery

I climbed up a mountain, and looked off the edge
At all of the lives that I never have led
There's one where I stayed with you across the sea
I wonder do you still think of me
I carry your image always in my head
Folded and yellowed and torn at the edge
And I've looked upon it for so many years
Slowly I am loosing your face

[chorus:]
Oh the ocean rolls us away, away, away
The ocean rolls us away

Sixes and sevens we live on jet planes
So many faces I don't know the names
So many friends now and none of them mine
Forgotten as soon as we meet
All of these moments are lost in time
You're caught in my head like a thorn on a vine
To forever torment me and I wonder why
Do I wish I'd never known you at all

[chorus x2]
Oh the ocean rolls us away, away, away
The ocean rolls us away

The sun and the moon
An ocean of air
So many voices
But nothing is there
The ghost of you asking me why
Why did I leave

[chorus]

Oh the ocean rolls us away away away

And I lose your hand through the waves

Rat In The Walls Lyrics – The Bravery

I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.

(Ohh. Ohh)

Every single night when you're lying in bed,
you can hear a scratchin' in the back of your head.
I don't know what I did, but I'm under your skin;
I'm on your mind and you can't get me off.

You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away, but you keep coming back.

I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.

Just like a horse coming back to the stable,
I know you want to leave me, but you are unable.
It's instinct now just like ringing a bell; Pavlov would be proud.

You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away, but you keep coming back.

I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.

(Ohh. Ohh)

You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away.
You try to get away, get away, get away, but you keep coming back.

I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh.

I'm in your head like a rat in the walls.
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls
I'm in your head like a rat in the walls. Ohh. Ohh. Ohh. Ohh.

Faces Lyrics – The Bravery

When I hold you I am just trying to feel
That thing inside of you that I once thought was real
To see that light I thought I saw, but it was never there at all

I put these things in you I wanted to believe
But they aren't real it seems I made them in my dreams
I see allusions of the things I wanted you to be

And I see faces in the darkness, I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me, but no one's there
No one's there
I see faces, I see faces

You are speaking, but your're lips don't match the words
Are these just voices in my head?
I want somone one to love so badly I don't know what is real, anymore

And I see faces in the darkness I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me, but no one's there
No one's there
I see faces, I see faces

I see faces in the darkness, I hear voices in the air
I see shadows all around me, but one's there, no one's there, on one's there

Who Left Me Out? Lyrics – The Bravery

Everyone knows what to do
But nobody told me
Looking at me like I knew
So nobody told me
Everyone knows where to go
But nobody told me
Been walking around like I know
Something no one told me

But I wanna know
Who left me out
I wanna know
Who let me down
And I wanna know
Who left me out

Who left me out

Everyone knows what to say
But nobody told me
Everyone around with a smile on their face
But nobody told me
Everyone knows what to do
But nobody told me
Looking at me like I knew
Something no one told me

But I wanna know
Who left me out
I wanna know
Who let me down
And I wanna know
Who left me out

Everyone knows what to be
But nobody told me
I wish I could see what they see
But nobody told me
So maybe it's just me
It must have been me

And I wanna know
Who left me out
I wanna know
Who let me down
And I wanna know
Who left me out

The Dandy (Rock) Lyrics – The Bravery

All the games the dandy plays,
All the things he never said,
Multiplies a thousand ways
And ends up wishing he were dead.

He fires away, he fires a miss,
Ignites a fire in his walls.
It chokes the breath, chokes the life,
While no one hears him as he calls.

Going alone, sometimes you know
You're gonna feel that no one's around.
Chances you take while everything
You face is always bringing you down.
None ever knows why they are here
Until they're braced and head for the ground,
Always in need of standing tall.

And to most, he's just a ghost
In a world he never chose.
Is there hope for such a fool
With a past that can't be closed?

He fires away, he fires a miss,
Ignites a fire in his walls.
It chokes the breath, chokes the life,
While no one hears him as he calls.

Going alone, sometimes you know
You're gonna feel that no one's around.
Chances you take while everything
You face is always bringing you down.
None ever knows why they are here
Until they're braced and head for the ground,
Always in need of standing tall.

Going alone, sometimes you know
You're gonna feel that no one's around.
Chances you take while everything
You face is always bringing you down.
None ever knows why they are here
Until they're braced and head for the ground,
Always in need of standing tall.

"The Bravery" (2005)

An Honest Mistake Lyrics – The Bravery

People
They don't mean a thing to you
They move right through you
Just like your breath
But sometimes
I still think of you
And I just wanted to
Just wanted you to know
My old friend...
I swear I never meant for this
I never meant...

Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
An honest mistake

Sometimes
I forget I'm still awake
I fuck up and say these things out loud

My old friend...
I swear I never meant for this
I never meant...

Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
An honest mistake

Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
Don't look at me that way
It was an honest mistake
An honest mistake

No Brakes Lyrics – The Bravery

No brakes this time
I slit the line
But if you want me, it's cool
You can take me for a fool
I could slow down if you want me to
But just for you, just for you, just for you...

Carry me home, put me to bed!
Leave me alone, it's all in my head!
It's out of my hands, over the wheel
My only chance, my only appeal

What if you're here to save me from this?
If I disappear will I be missed?
I never know what I should do
Can I leave it up to you?

No brakes, it's true
No brakes, just you
Something to move me instead
Of this rolodex in my head

I never meant anything I said
When I see red, I see red, I see red...

Carry me home, put me to bed!
Leave me alone, it's all in my head!
It's out of my hands, over the wheel
My only chance, my only appeal

What if you're here to save me from this?
If I disappear will I be missed?
I never know what I should do
Can I leave it up to you?

Can I leave it up to you?
Can I leave it up to you?
Can I leave it up to you?

Fearless Lyrics – The Bravery

Too many fingers, too many thumbs
Something wicked this way comes
The best time I've ever had
Waiting around for something bad
Fearless, fearless, ohh
And I know that's why you love me
Fearless, fearless, come on
And I know that's why you love me, chica
And I know that's why you love me, chica
And I know that's why you love me, chica

Oh, so fearless
Oh, so fearless
Oh

This is what it's all about
Take me in and eat me out
Pins and needles in my arms
Lucky eyes and lucky charms

Fearless, fearless, ohh
And I know that's why you love me
Fearless, fearless, come on
And I know that's why you love me, chica
And I know that's why you love me, chica
And I know that's why you love me, chica

Oh, so fearless
Oh, so fearless
Oh, so fearless
Oh, so fearless
Oh, yeah

Tyrant Lyrics – The Bravery

Everytime you come around
There's a bouquet for me
A corsage of promises
And I am pinned
Like a butterfly on a card
I'm naked and I'm scarred
And you're so perfect to me

Violent ties with hands like a steeple
Tell me lies with a tongue like a needle
I let the words shot down my throat
A face like an iron fist
That I can never resist
I learn the ...

Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth

I'm stuck just like a pig
Roasting in your eyes
I'll believe anything that you want
You gotta teach me how to live
Cause you make me wanna die
You took it all, now you're all I've got

Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth

There's noises in my head
Just noises in my head
If I could I'd drown them all out
I'd bury all of these noises
From your tyrant mouth

You're just a noise in my head
You're just a noise in my head
I'll drown you out
And I'll bury all the noises
From your hateful little mouth

Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Words of wisdom
Words of wisdom
Words of wisdom from your tyrant mouth
Yeah...

Give In Lyrics – The Bravery

All I want is everything
Everything that I'll ever be
Everyone that's coming for me
Nothing happens and everything is changed
All I want is everything to stay the same

Will you give in?
Will you give in?

All I want is everything
All the words and the truths between
All I want is everything
Everything you're keeping from me
Nothing happens and everything is changed
All I want is everything to stay the same

Will you give in?
Will you give in?

I've been staring back in my eyes for a while
I think they never stop moving

All I want is everything
All the things that you think of me
All that you've tricked yourself to believe
Nothing happens and everything is changed
All I want is everything to stay the same


Will you give in?
Will you give in?

Will you give in?
Will you give in?

Swollen Summer Lyrics – The Bravery

Downtown in the shade
Staring at the sunshine in my face
Telling me to come and hide, come and play
I'm telling you the sun never goes away
And all i do is talk, talk, talk all day
I'm talking my life away
I'm staring at the sun again
Till everything's fading

[chorus:]
It's like a swollen summer
What if I'm getting dumber?
What if I'm just in denial?
What if they come and cop my style?

Downtown in the clear
All I know is nothing ever changes here
And I know there's no excuse and no defense
But my summertime never ends.

[chorus x2]

Swollen summer
Swollen summer
Swollen summer
Swollen summer

Public Service Announcement Lyrics – The Bravery

All this time I should have known
One of these days you'd follow me home
Mess up my room and proceed to tempt me
And no matter how good I am you learn to resent me

[Chorus:]
Stop, drop and roll
Stop, drop and roll
Stop, drop and roll
You're on fire

I'm stingy with words
All binge, no purge
You put the broke in broken hearted
You put the art in retarted

[repeat chorus x2]

Out Of Line Lyrics – The Bravery

It's sweet Eliza
Remember me
I'm a liar
But not a cheat, no...
I think it's safe to say
That I got carried away
Eliza, it's fooling anyone

Forgive me if I'm out of line
I can't control myself sometimes
I think I'm sick but I might be well
I think I'm broke but it's hard to tell
I think I feel like I've never felt for you

It's sweet Cassandra
Remember me
You are no longer
The one I need, mmm...

I find it hard to tell
That I'm finally be an angel
And silence isn't fooling anyone

Forgive me if I'm out of line
I can't control myself sometimes
I think I'm sick but I might be well
I think I'm broke but it's hard to tell
I think I feel like I've never felt for you

ooh-oooh-oooh
ooh-oooh-oooh

I think I'm sick but I might be well
I think I'm broke but it's hard to tell
I think I feel like I've never felt for you

Forgive me if I'm out of line

Unconditional Lyrics – The Bravery

I've spent my whole life surrounded
and I've spent my whole life alone
I wonder why I never wonder why
The easiest things are so hard
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want something
Something for nothing
Something, something for nothing

I'm a beggar and I'm a chooser
I'm accused, I'm an accuser
But nothing's unconditional

I hold the whole world accused
I've only got myself to blame
I wonder why, I never wonder why
The easiest things are so hard

I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want something
Something for nothing
Something, something for nothing

I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want, I just want love
I just want something
Something for nothing
Something, something for nothing

I'm a beggar and I'm a chooser
I'm accused, I'm an accuser
But nothing's unconditional

The Ring Song Lyrics – The Bravery

Me and the ocean
Me and the sea
I don't think so
I don't think it was meant to be
Take me off, somewhere cold
Gradually just growing old
And someday maybe make of me an honest man

Yeah, well

I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke

Down by the ocean, walk by the sea
All these people
They look so, they look so happy to me

What if all, I want want in this world
Turned out just to be an honest girl
Turned out just to make of me an honest man

Oh Yeah, well

I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke

I don't see no ring on these fingers
I don't see no ring on these fingers
Love in this town, makes it hard to see
Things that aren't right in front of me

Oh yeah
Ba ba ba bada, ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba bada, ba ba ba ba

In this town, it's like a joke
I must have had fun, cause now I'm broke
I'm blind in this town, it's hard to see
Things that aren't right in front of me

Yeah

Rites Of Spring lyrics - the bravery

You’re the women who made me a man
I was down you taught me to stand

I was made up of nothing
You put something inside
You opened my chest
And put that hurt in my eyes
Now I’ve got pain that I can turn to
When I wonder if I’m still alive

I was dead in the water
That left me dead in the water

I was made of nothing
You put your hands on my heart
Stained your fingers inside me
And you took me apart

You’re the woman who made me who I am
Everything I’ve got I got it from you

Ours lyrics - the bravery

[from "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" soundtrack]

After tonight, who knows where we'll be tomorrow
What if we're never here again?
After tonight, this will be a lifetime ago
So let's stay up until the sky bleeds red

And we'll stop, stop, stop the world from moving
Stop, stop, stop the clocks from turning
Stop this night from fading away

This time is ours
If I could hold this moment in my hands
I would stop the world from moving
I'd stop the clocks from turning
This time is ours
Inside a frozen memory of us
And we are motionless, motionless

You're like a dream
That I have just awoken from
Fading away, just out of reach
And we are here
But I already miss you
Even as you're lying next to me

We're gonna stop, stop, stop the world from moving
Stop, stop, stop the clocks from turning
Stop this night from fading away

This time is ours
If I could hold this moment in my hands
I'd stop the world from moving
I'd stop the clocks from turning
This time is ours
Inside a frozen memory of us
And we are motionless, motionless
And we are motionless, motionless
And we are motionless, motionless

We're gonna stop, stop, stop the world from moving
Stop, stop, stop the clocks from turning
Stop this night from fading away, fading away

This time is ours
If I could hold this moment in my hands
I would stop the world from moving
I'd stop the clocks from turning
This time is ours
Inside a frozen memory of us
And we are motionless, motionless

This time is ours
This time is ours
This time is ours
This time is ours
This time is ours.
