71 notes in 24 hours…..
who knew…
And this week the trend
Was to not wake up till 3pm
I picked the few conscious hours that I chose to spend
And slept away the rest of them
And this week the trend
Was to crash and burn and then return again
To practice the life that I pretend
Provides enough to get me through the weekend
So I say
Get me a solution
And watch me run with it
And then you gave
You gave me a solution
What have I done with it
Cause I was absolutely sure I had it all figured out
Way back then
And now it’s this minute, this hour, this day
And this week the trend
Was to backstab every single one of my friends
And leave a voicemail message trying to make amends
All the while hoping things work out in the end
And this week the trend
Was to borrow all the strength that you could lend
To keep my head above the water and not descend
Back to where I said I’d never go again
So I say
Give me a solution
And watch me run with it
And then you gave
You gave me a solution
What have I done with it
Cause I was absolutely sure I had it all figured out
Way back then
But after this day it’s this week all over again
And I just want to get mugged at knife-point
To get cut enough to wake me up
Cause I know that I don’t want to die
Sitting around watching my life go by
And what we take from this is what we’ll get
And we haven’t quite figured it out just yet
Because all of us are all too stuck
Strapped to a chair watching our lives blow up
Stuck watching our lives blow up
Relient K — This Week The Trend
I talk to absolutely no one.
Couldn’t keep to myself enough.
And the things bottled inside have finally begun
To create so much pressure that I’ll soon blow up.
I heard the reverberating footsteps
Synching up to the beating of my heart,
And I was positive that unless I got myself together,
I would watch me fall apart.
And I can’t let that happen again
‘cause then you’ll see my heart
In the saddest state it’s ever been.
He’s the guy that you should feel sorry for
He had the world but he thought that he wanted more
I owe it all to the mistake he made back then
I owe it all to my girl’s ex-boyfriend
Relient K — My Girl’s Ex-Boyfriend
Relient K — My Girl’s Ex-Boyfriend
THIS IS THE LAST ONE!!! I PROMISE!!!
And it holds to me a lot right now because of my girlfriend (: I can vouch for and sing every word in this song. He doesn’t know what he’s missing.
Hey taxi, send me straight to the heart of it
The nucleus of politics where somebody
Somebody started it
Cause they taxed me with a scalpel piece by piece
they cut me deep and bled me dry until there was nothing left to bleed
And this is how I choose to live
As if I’m jumping off a cliff
knowing that you’ll save me
knowing that you’ll save me
and after all the stupid things I did
there’s nothing left that you’d forgive
because you already forgave me
yeah you already forgave me
Keep driving
leave this deceit miles behind me
so far back I’d have to wrap my mind in
just remind me
I keep trying to pick myself up
and then move on
think about the life I’ll have
when this fragile one is gone.
And this is how I choose to live
As if I’m jumping off a cliff
knowing that you’ll save me
knowing that you’ll save me
and after all the stupid things I did
there’s nothing left that you’d forgive
because you already forgave me
yeah you already forgave me
Never forget
there’s life after death and taxes
Forgiveness come
and all of the rest
is what passes away
Death and decay can’t touch us now
Every breath that I inhale is followed by exhaling traps the one who never fails
I know you’ll never fail me
Never forget
there’s life after death and taxes
Forgiveness come (forgiveness come)
and all of the rest
it just passes away
Never forget
there’s life after death and taxes
Forgiveness come
and all of the rest
it just passes away
Death and decay can’t touch us now.
