sweet quote
 
those are great lyrics...that whole song was written to the lead singer of taking back sunday because he was the lead singer of brand new's best friend and ended up screwing his girlfriend...which brings me to some other good lyrics..."in truth, you could slit my throat, and in my one last gasping breath, i'd apologize for bleeding on your shirt" -taking back sunday

CO&CA4EVER 07-15-2004 12:38 PM

That quote is played out by now, every emo kid and their mom knows that one.

<Verse 1>
I'm starting to fashion an idea in my head
where I would impress you
with every single word I said.
Would come out insightful, or brave, or smooth, or charming
and you'd want to call me..
And I would be there every time
you'd need me
I'd be there every time...

<Chorus>
But for now I'll look so longingly
waiting...
For you to want me, for you need me, for you to notice me

Im a trendy pussy boy, who likes to cry and follow fads, and can only play power chords and i like only bands with stupid ass names that are just a bunch of words cobbled together to sound peotic and artsy, and I think I can get chicks, but most likely other emoboys, if i dress and act emo-coheed..no wait i think its Taking back...no, it's American Fo...wait it aint... well i cant remeber but its a beautiful lyric

:ar_15s: bring on the flamers, yeh u guys are flamers in more way than 1

Tekron 07-26-2004 12:18 PM

1. im not ***
2. obviously you don't know what you're talking about
3. im not a pussy, ive never lost a fight, and ive been in at least a dozen
4. i like poetry...the music you're speaking of is pop-punk
5. emo actually has a lot of meaning, waht emo is portrayed as to you is not what emo really is, its pop punk...which consists of power chords...
6. the bands that are emo taht i listen to dont have power chords, granted their might be some in the backround or something, but the lead guitars are very talented, as well as the lyrics which make sense AND ARE POETIC. So learn what you're talking about before you decide to think you know what emo is and contradict your stupidity.

Kitten 07-26-2004 05:22 PM

Get a little anxious
Sometimes you'll be gone and I'll be left behind
Get a little nervous
Sometimes it'll be my cue and I'll forget my lines
Get a little lost look
And some staring from the corner of my eye
Never really mastered disinterest

I can't see how
The way that you leave me alone makes us close
I must be out of touch
I won't ask you
To give up on the things that seem to keep you gone
But I can be gone too

awww, is someone overcompensating for something? does insulting random annonymous people over the internet fill the void in your empty little life? don't worry, how about we all pretend to get all offended, so you can have the attention you so obviously crave, and we can all be greatly amused at yet another pathetic little boy thinking he's clever and original by coming on a music board and insulting its members with cliche generalizations. Anything else we can do for you? maybe a hug? mommy didn't hug you enough as a child, is that it?

Tekron 07-26-2004 10:10 PM

jibber, hes just ignorant, maybe he'll learn whats really goin on around him and grow up

jibber 07-26-2004 10:29 PM

^ no, i know he's ignorant, i'm just drawing attention to the fact that he finds it amusing to post generalizations about people over the internet, to get a rise out of people, getting him more attention, maybe because he doesn't have alot in his life and feels the need to resort to this petty sort of entertainment. and he's definitely not the first to do so.

I really like the song Jumper by Third Eye Blind, he sings about all the bad things thats happened to his friend, and all the bad qualities his friend has, but that it should never be the right thing to kill yourself, just really makes me think about how strong the bonds of friendship can be...

-chrous-
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend.
You could cut ties with all the lies.
That you've been livin in.
And if you do not want to see me again.
I would understand.
I would understand.

The angery boy, a bit to ashamed.
Icing over a secret pain.
You know you do not belong.
Your the first to fight.
You're way too loud.
You're the flash of light.
On a burial shroud.
I know somethin's wrong.
Well everyone i know has got a reason.
To say.
Put the past away.

-chorus-

Well he's on the table.
And he's gone to code.
And i do not think anyone knows.
What they are doing here.
All your friends have left.
And you've been dismissed.
I never thought it would come to this.
And i.
I want you to know.
Everyone's got to face down the demons.
Maybe today.
We can put the past away.

-Chorus-

jibber 07-28-2004 03:31 AM

my favorite song right now, finch - ender

Here I am beside myself again.
I'm torn apart by words that you have said.
And all in all,
I know we're falling apart.
Where did you run to so far away?
Here we are to sing you a song.
There you are asleep against the window pane
just like always.
You said you like to hear the rain sometimes.
And all I can do is tell you the truth.
And oh, my eyes will tell you the same.
Here we are to sing you a song.
There you are asleep again.
Grasp our hands together,
we feel we are one result.
And here we are to sing you a song.
And there you are asleep again...

The whole song "Aside" by the Weakerthans is the best lyrics I've ever heard. I love this song. It describes a lot of me.

Measure me in metered lines
And one decisive stare
The time it takes to get from here to there
My ribs that show through t-shirts
And these shoes I got for free
I'm unconsoled
I'm lonely
I am so much better than I used to be
Terrified of telephones
And shopping malls and knives
Drowning in the pools of other lives
Rely a bit too heavily
On alcohol and irony
Get clobbered on by courtesy
In love with love and lousy poetry
And I'm leaning on this broken fence
Between past and present tense
And I'm losing all those stupid games
That I swore I'd never play
But it almost feels okay
Circumnavigate this body
Of wonder and uncertainty
Armed with every precious failure
And amature cartography
I'm breathing deep before
I spread those maps out on my bedroom floor
And I'm leaning on this broken fence
Between past and present tense
And I'm losing all those stupid games
That I swore I'd never play
But it feels okay
And I'm leaving with goodbye
And I'm losing but I'll try
With the last ways left
To remember sing
My imperfect offering

felix 08-05-2004 01:04 AM

So paint your face up something elegant
And this time maybe a darker shade of red
Cause a long night means a fist fight
Against your pillow and my pearly whites
I want to hear you scream you like me better on my knees

I really like the the last line.

My chemical romance have really inspired me lately.. so all these lines are from them.. check it...



I never said I’d lie and wait forever

At the end of the world or the last thing i see you are never coming home

And all the things that you never ever told me and all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me

All alone and i remember now at the top of my lungs in my arms you died

I miss you, and the collision of your kiss that made it so hard

When you go just know that I will remember you

If you were here I'd never have a fear. So go on live your life. But I miss you more than I did yesterday.

Walk away from the choice you made and say goodnight to the hearts you break

We could be perfect one last night and die like star-crossed lovers when we fight

Stand up tall don’t let them see your back Take my hand and never be afraid again

You'll invest yourself in me, we're not working out and you can cry all you want to, I don't care how much

or how about they are rediculusly heavy with clean parts, in no way emo dude, lol. Although Shevanal Cut A Flip, the song you quoted from, the most emo part on the album is "These old eyes keep all these tears inside". Most definitly metal-core

A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life
But love can break your heart

hot water music-driving home
<i know the sink and the rot got feeling "is this happening to me" and i know what it's like to want to end it all. driving home between the lines in the road i swear that i've been through this before when nothing makes much sense except for doing yourself in razor blades are hard to hold. when we're hit in the heart with problems that won't shift it's hard to admit that we're afraid when we're hit in the head with unanswered questions that repeat "how could i ever live after this day" we can take the hits and grow tougher collect ourselves to live longer and find there is no need to be afraid because we all have more to offer when we struggle to cope with whatever it takes to make the says we all have what it takes to make it home>

Zealious 10-07-2004 05:49 PM

I find I will not miss...
clandestine heartaches buried years deep in stagnant days.
Writing lullabies across the moon
I have rescued dreams dying on yesterday's embers
fashioning flowers from fancy.
Skipping stones across april showers.
We will dance upon days time has forgotten.
To let dawn's drapery enfold us.
Gazing at angels through the eyes of a second

-Saetia, Endymion (on of their best songs)

I bleed onto a page for you where diction has lost all its meaning,
and secrets fall from lips like dying petals in a forgotten garden.
Believing language we speak in tongues deceiving ourselves,
my heart whispers in forms that twenty years of reason and cognition have rendered useless.
If only you could hear what I have seen for aeons before this zero.
To see our system as a void, to believe ourselves immune--
To never feel our wings melting.
We are all spirits trapped and dying.
Trapped and dying.
-Saetia

Brand New~Okay i believe you but my Tommy gun don't

I am heavensent.Don't you dare forget.I am all you ever wanted. What the other boys all promise.Sorry i told.I just needed you to know.Pretty much all of brand new's lyrics are pretty awesome (Sic Transit Gloria).But it has particular significance for me because my Ex sung it to me once and i never forget it...

_field_of_screams_ 10-17-2004 08:35 PM

When you're only left with a bullet, I'l bring a trigger and a promise to pull it.
I'll be the end of everyone who's ever entered your life and taken pieces out of it.
I'll give you enough time to regain your composure. To reconstruct a heart that's been torn apart from over-exposure.
