The Used

Kids round here got a different way of doin' it lock into a dream and insist on pursuin' it Times are getting tougher and the choice is do or die We play it fuckin loud, how we want and reply So turn up the stereo and grab the mic cause I know I'm alright got...

It's our time to shine through the down glorified by what is ours We've fallen in love We've fallen in love It was the best idea I ever had Today I fell and felt better Just knowing this matters I just feel stronger and SHARPER!!! Found a box of sharp objects...

A Burningbush the Bay of Pigs the CIA. I guess if daddy helped the Nazis it's okay. Booked an expensive flight with buildings in the way. A different Burningbush exact same things to say. God bless the USA We're saying no way, no way USA By declaring war on...

So deep, that it didn't even bleed and catch me Off guard, red handed Now I'm far from lonely Asleep, I still see you lying next to me So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me, I... I need something else Would someone please just give me Hit me, knock me...

Maybe light a candle Don't say a prayer for me Feel alone Cuz I'm gone I left you Make Christmas your own You throw the thought of us away You'll be alone this holiday Said, It's cold in this town And it's so underground Far from home Not alone I left you wi...

The worms they crack like words and Turn your teeth up and run,leave. I´m all drinks. So i clean I fall down. Should i fit these. So politely. All praises suger coated. Looking between her mouth and mine. I got scars from dirty scratches. Scabs and ashes. The...

You felt the coldness in my eyes. and it's something I'm not revealing. Though you got used to my disguise, you're can't shake this awful feeling. It's the me that I let you know, Cause' I'll never show I have my reasons I hate to say that I told you so, but...

And it's all in how you mix the two, And it starts just where the light exists. It's a feeling that you cannot miss, And it burns a hole, through everyone that feels it. Well you're never gonna find it, If you're looking for it, won't come your way, Well you'...

Exercise the demon that is living up inside you, after all you think you've been through, just what have you been through. Try to get beside yourself this tearing at your insides, if you end up on the wrong side, always standing so strong. Sharpen up your t...

From the way that you acted To the way that I felt it It wasn't worth my time And now it's sad cause all I missed Wasn't that good to begin with And now I've started you begging Saying things that you don't mean It isn't worth my time A lines a dime a millin t...

You almost always pick the best time, to drop the worst lines. You almost made me cry again this time. Another false alarm, red flashing lights. Well this time I'm not going to watch myself die. I think I made it a game to play your game and let myself cry. I...

Watch out; You might get what you're after. Cool babies; Strange but not a stranger. I'm-an-or-din-a-ry-guy. Burning down the house. Hold tight; Wait till the parties over. Hold tight; We're in for nasty weather. There-has-got-to-be-a-way. Burning down the ho...

As of now I'm down straight up and I can turn to the box for some peace or a box for a piece or a box for a smoke but they're all gonna choke me you're so crazy enough in a way that I'll probably say you destroyed me for awhile I was cleaner than now...

Opened up my failure, when you refused to go insane. I felt you get excited, when I whispered all the things you love to hate. Like you're the one who kills, could kill me with a drug, your weapon. Let's pretend there's nothing wrong with my direction. Hate...

You'll never know what it feels like til you're there. When love changes, faces appear from nowhere. When beautiful, lovely is ugly alone. You need me back bad, just can't be on your own. Love is not a battle, it's a ticking time bomb. Love is not a batt...

If we cut out the bad Well then we'd have nothing left Like I cut up your mouth The night I stuffed it all in And you lied to the angels Said I stabbed you to death If we go at the same time They'll clean up the mess I lost my head You couldn't come This lust...

I see the way that the sun spits in your face Our love is too big for us to break You got me wishing for the stars in outer space I'm holding on to this life and love, and for... The possibility, you and me, let me be I need to find a way To put this trouble...

Just by the look of it As in the way you wrote me off I'm not supposed to see Your eyes tell lies you mouth can never spill I wasn't feeling it I don't even need to shake your hand I guess you were born equipped Your eyes tell lies you mouth can never spill Yo...

If you need me I'll be out with the night. If you need me I'll be up with the moon. Watch me changing as you turn out the light. Watch me changing as I leave your cocoon. I'm like a ghost, a vampire in the mirror, You're the beast that's waiting to feed. Lord...

She had an earthquake on her mind I almost heard her cry out as I left her far behind and knew the world was crashing down around her I sink now to the ocean floor because I know we are more but I've made this mess I've built this fire, are you still mine? ca...

Stuff your pockets stuff your mouth Much more than feeding your bloated god your bank account Your empathy's fleeting Now that you bought the cure, you own the truth, still you want more Down on your knees you bleed it out This type of believing Hold on wait...

I haven't lost anything except my mind, (except my mind) expect a thousand confessions that you will not find. I try to take off my head sometimes, because I can't escape the memories. I haven't lost anything except my mind. (except my mind) You could be emp...

Call me a traitor for changing my mind Call me a criminal if thinking's a crime Call me an animal, it's hard to define I don't care what you say. I came to defy. I've come so far Everything changes. With the way that I feel Seems impossible I'll stay the same...

Lay your head down just for now Space fills your mind and you dream awhile The sun floods your room as you drown your lungs full of breathing Your true love believe One more time to say I love you always and keeping faith letting love find a way Move l...

Our voices steal silence the plans that we've made The dead cannot hear all the prayers that we beg Is there force without violence Is there a catch with no hook Believing the lies while they fix all the books. Things will never change. If we remain the same....

Generation throwaway Get watched as We dig in the dirt While the pretty ones climb the trees With the keys to the cage Get caught as we're making it worse As we break our backs we barely notice the pain Yea we're taking it back. We're only moments away. Bra...

I still remember all the back and forth you couldn't stay away and I couldn't take it, like a cold wind blows you're calling out my name and now it haunts me, softly fading are the memories of your face I should have listened when you whispered my name, still...

I lived out more than a little, give my insides out til there's nothing left to see stepped down, left in the middle of the mess you made the mess I used to be so give me love give me every little bit of your broken heart my heart skips a beat so give me love,...

You took it back How could you go and do something like that My fingernail phase Worst has got the best of you I ask you and I know I need to change Change You took it back You ripped my heart out of my then you put it back I'm pulling my hair I let you just...

How can I not taste it, when it's right there put it in my hand. And let's not put it in their faces. Hide the obvious just a little bit, It's coming to this. You'll know they'll never face it, They're just a face all covered with a rag. And they can't stop t...

The singer finished singing And she's walking out The singer sheds a tear, fear of falling out And it's hard to say how I feel today For years gone by and I cried It's hard to say that I was wrong Its hard to say that I miss you Since you've been gone...

This feeling never leaves you alone You pull the trigger on your own You're hiding in your safe place Hiding with your eyes shut tightly all the way to the hospital Now will you ever rest your head You end up feeling mostly dead Pretending you're the last one...

I never meant to hurt no one Nobody ever tore me down like you I think you knew it all along And now you'll never see my face again I never meant to hurt nobody And will I ever see the sun again? I wonder where the guilt had gone I think of what I have become...

Seemed to stop my breath My head on your chest Waiting to cave in From the bottom of my... Hear your voice again Could we dim the sun And wonder where we've been Maybe you and me So kiss me like you did My heart stopped beating Such a softer sin... (I'm melti...

Breathing in now, I start counting my blessings. Picturing the last time I said. Beg forgiveness, With some words that mean nothing, Illusions like smoke in my breath. I come alive, When I’m falling down. I let myself go, Till I hit the ground. When I’m there...

Small, simple, safe price. Rise the wake and carry me with all of my regrets. This is not a small cut that scabs, and dries, and flakes, and heals. And I am not afraid to die; I am not afraid to bleed and fuck and fight, I want the pain of payment. What's left...

I'll take 1 for the money Cause I've already paid I'll take 2 for the lava Under shifting of plates I'll take 3 for South America; Get snorted in Gondwana; Call me up down under When they kill Captain America I'm out OK, I'm back, I'll take the fourf...

I wasn’t made to understand I’ve given up my name Forgotten where I stand Sometimes I don’t know who I am I used to feel so scared I used to hold your hand I’m so sick of playing favorites So sick of being scared They would rather see you all alone (Imaginar...

You've given me, nowhere to go. Yeah, you finally have control. And if there's a cure I don't wanna know. Cause this poison in me's so intoxicating. I was right when I thought you would be back for my health, Keep on telling myself that it's alright. But now...

Whoaaa oh, oh. Whoaaa oh, whoa. Whoaaa, whoa, whoa oh, oh I stopped to call you my little girl. I meant more. So much more. That I'd like to push it half to death. They want to, they watch you. Silence turning heads and breaking necks. Past time, we'...

Blind on a ledge, not a thing, not a... Road of broken heart, not a thing. Not at at all. You know... Of things we hear, nothing's there.. nothing. She said "Why do you watch me?" said 'why?' You know.. Maybe a good excuse not to give a fuck. But I... Care....

The singer finished singing and she's walking out The singer sheds a tear fear of falling out And it's hard to say how I feel today For years gone by And I cried It's hard to say that I was wrong It's hard to say I miss you Since you've been gone it's not the...

You surprise me, i'm looking out, looking out Surprise me you jump back up onto your feet somehow You surprise me, i'm looking out, looking out Surprise me you jump back up onto your Things appear... gone. things appear... gone. Where'd you go? Seems like yo...

Can a song Shine a light on what we think? Can a song Move the people to their feet? Can a song Leave us brave enough to fight? Can a song Give us strength to do what's right? We have the right to let our voices be heard. Hear us now, hear us screaming out....

Come on come on come on Your love shows many colours Roses will show their thorns You showed me signs of silence, Showed me my way back home. I break my back right over, I dance on broken glass. I hold my breath half to death, You can't forget the past. Unle...

Cut yourself in conversation, cut the line to make me feel alive, 'cause u know I'm not alive, and leave me with your complications. Take your life, you feel like taking mine. Meeting God, we stand in line, not alone. Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, not g...

This poison’s my intoxication I broke the needle off in my skin Picked the scabs and pick the bleeding And assumed that it was all in vain A positive scab that's never healing Calloused hit me in the face A burning bridge thats's so misleading Poison’s more po...

Liar, liar, pants on fire And the pills go down and get you higher Baby bottle's burning, motherfucker And the mother hates him like the daughter Only god and maker gripping tighter Saying you will burn in hell, they say You will burn in hell Liar, liar, pant...

Free from the torment of sin All this I'm giving up Much as the sun would decide to give in Explode into orange And hear all the voices sing praises with hymns Mark the birth of a change Free from the torment of sin All this I'm giving up It's not me Buried w...

Your skin attached This fragile cliche Of my broken heart attack You should swallow your teeth and hang out Stay for a while If your heart's still beating it must be the blood If your lungs are still working it must be the mud If its still light out than a kic...

Wake up, my love Never thought you'd make me, break me Now I'm up, from below Such a brilliant star you are And will your love keep burning baby? Burn a hole right through my eyes You saw that short times feel like no time And I thought you oughta know I'm s...

Can't watch with mechanical eyes, we say ahh-oh. You light a match but can't see in the dark, you say ohh-no. Don't even laugh as you fight to survive, say ahh-oh. Run out of time. Save your life. Ohh, whoa, oh. Backfire. Shut your mouth. You got nothing to s...

I can't see What it is that you want me to see Let alone could I ever believe there is only one way to be And somehow you were given the key I was just a little kid I put my trust in you You never meant to lie You didn't know the truth You don't get to tell me...

As we trudge along the mud And we tried to call it home But we weren't alright Not at all Not for one second Never have been one to write it down Now i think i can I know i'm stronger now Who's looking south Not me i'm looking back I'm done denying...

Past midnight, breathing in the dark. Same strange friend comes to visit, never intend to open the door. You take it to places that no one's ever been, you let it, you let it, your insides caving in. You pushed and pulled, still wanting some more. This time...

Always safe to know what is good for, taking blood stains from your clothes. Like I said before, when I bite your tongue out of your mouth, you'll know. Just what am I supposed to say, and tell you why I turned out this way? Don't make me, don't make me. I...

Money Monster You put your money where your mouth is for the last time, sugar Besides, it's filthy where those dollar bills have been You think it's worth it to keep pulling that trigger No one tells you if you win, you end up dead You're not a monster,...

First start out with the wrong place at the right time And that's where you'll find me. Next add in all the fucked up shit I've done But somehow kept inside me. Cause while you were waiting for the sun I was turning away, You try avoiding death by kneeling to...

I might have so far to go and the moments left behind i started gasping for air got that, i’m still breathing swallow the pain, i thought i didn’t need it, didn’t need it at all when i watch the cut heal, i know my heart is still beating it’s safe to say that...

Stuck sitting in your own mess sinking Call up arms to search for a better word A mess you made, a smell you chose I wont break in front of you Better off on your own you said I’ve seen that look in your eye its embarrassing one know cold And make this quite...

Look in my eyes I'm jaded now Whatever that means By sharing these things I rip my heart out It's worth my time whatever that means... so... Hard to see up My neck feels stiff Until I wake up The orange I choked And back to my neck It's worth my time Whateve...

I began to float, up, away from my body, my brain's holding the grip of a giant vice It was all very good Floating higher and higher, a wonderful feeling..." DIE! DIE! DIE! DIE! I'm watching closely just to see So I can rest in peace I put my face close, mak...

See all those people on the ground Wasting time I try to hold it all inside But just for tonight The top of the world Sitting here wishing The things i’ve become That something is missing Maybe i... But what do i know And now it seems that i have fo...

"We kill the faggots, we kill the lesbians, I said goddammit we kill them all!" We were taught to kneel and bow our heads, I tried simply standing up instead. Heard rumors of transparent legs and walks for days and days. These days we reach for so much more...

It called me, I shoulda known As the fever sweat through the dream Told mamma that I couldn't go So I could stay home just to watch him dancing And you could not tell me then Like you could never ever tell me now That this is not who I am Plans...

(It goes back before the cross The myth of Adam and Eve Or all the gods of the Greeks) Does it start all at once? Or come as slow as can be. It's not about you and me And never mind what it costs At least it's not make believe We can get it for free But to ge...

Fade away So you don’t make a scene close your mouth and try keeping it closed forever Afraid of what you are Afraid of how you Learn to close your mouth and try keeping it closed forever If you had the mind to just check out Its something better that nothing...

Before I could ever let you go, gonna beg until I drive you mad And say something you could understand I'm a statue baby, knock me out Oh how these moments fade away, you say you never loved me We say things we didn't mean to say I take it back, I take it all...

Being faced with what I'm faced with I feel Like I can't rock Like a rock hit my heart Started to chain the day And exploded into pieces Marry me Stay the same Lie to me and try to say you never will [x2] I've got a feeling in my gut now fills me With so mu...

The cup is not half empty as pessimists say as far as he sees nothing's left in the cup A whole cup full of nothing for him to indulge since the voice of ambition has long since been shut up A singer, a writer, he's not dreaming now of going no where he heeds...

Your dream vacation, smile hostage refuge A work in progress you bleed just like you puke while running a mile I beg to differ, make me an offer Warm summer rain, you bleed just like you puke while running a mile Hey are you okay? You look pretty low Ve...

You bought your smile in a corner You paid a pretty little penny, you did. You paint yourself in a picture As you deny the kind of person you've been You get what you feel, what you wish to be You can't live sarcastic sincerity You sharpen your guilt like a g...

A tic tack toe in the pavement It's her birthday. The baby smoked Didn't need it, Cut to pieces. A second chance She bought a boat, Tried to feed it. Her capsize dance, But like the desert-wooden fetus. Facedown her liver's out in proper livery And tak...

It's not enough to kill the past, be blind to history. And all at once there's a black cloud coming made of gasoline. I see that you have set the price, made sure that nothing's free. One way to move forward is to learn who's stopping me. Yeah! this is th...

I still remember a year ago The times we spent I feel that I'm happier now I'm up from the down By all means It's strange 'cause I feel the same way I think of what it looks like I think of what it tastes like I think of what it looks like I think of what it...

How long was I sleeping? Did you wake me? Didn't feel like all that long. Do I see the morning? No it can't be Happened to me. I've been stuck in the quicksand, more the pavement colours black and white too long I could black out completely, but I made me,...

Call this a mask, call me strong; Call me a mess, call me wrong. 'Cause sick hearts do fine With wasting their time. (Yeah!) Make up two words on the spot for the moment, Acting like it's what you meant to say. Calling to angels, that slow dance with you- You...

I've gotta take this moment just to push you down, Spin you around with the foot on the back of your neck, Up on the curb, with the pressure on your teeth. (Not gonna take this, not gonna take this!) I watch the rain make a puddle to get you soaked, This fall...

Let me be the one who calls you baby all the time Surely you can take some comfort knowing that you're mine Just hold me tight, lay by my side Let me be the one who calls you baby all the time I found my place in the world Could stare at your face for...

I think of the worm that I've become, left blind from the brightness of your halo. No-one shines like you do. My filthy mouth and broken words, this small disease that leaves me crawling, crawling to you. Crawl underground for comfort, stay close to the dirt...

Been hanging desperate and hoping for a break. Black metal heavy till it goes against my brains. Why do I disgrace those things that spreads right off my face, All this for you. He almost thought he had a chance for something safe, But she can't let go, she w...

When the shirt came off, it was all in time When a m-m-m-minute turned into a mile And then I broke that grin, and I cut it out And you got all turned on by the taste of your sin When I mention blue, all you thought was color When you mention drugs, all I...

And it all falls down at once And I try to get some sleep And the comforts of this bed Have all been shattered to pieces I have a knack for feeling lost All those times I couldn't eat Like I couldn't yell enough But getting tired of screaming The sun...

Started out as a feeling But the feeling it started to grow I get stuck in the meaning And the answer's beyond my control I could walk to the edge in the middle of the dark Hold my breath, take a step, feel it all fall apart 'Cause I know exactly who you are...

Get down Wooooooo! Get down I'm lying to myself And this dagger's my excuse I'm a pawn I Should have paid up And I left an hour late I was laid up I must abuse myself I'm against all that I've made up Set in stone the sun will come And I hate lig...

Is it worth the can you even hear me Standing with your spotlight on me Not enough to feed the hungry I'm tired and I felt it for awhile now In this sea of lonely The taste of ink is getting old It's four o' clock in the fucking morning Each day gets more and...

I could forget your name I could forget your face forever I could forget about the smile you always faked The one you thought I bought but never I could forget your lies I could forget the hype for always I could forget how desperately you tried But flattery...

He wears his heart safety pinned to his backpack His backpack is all that he knows... Shot down by strangers whose glances can cripple The heart and devour the soul... Chorus: All alone he turns to stone While holding his breath half to death! Terrifie...

I see that face, that look in your eyes It's so hard to hide that look in your eyes You've been kicked down so many times Yeah you've tasted the dirt And you know what it's like Fill up your cup Fill it up to the top Take a sip, spit it out And fill it back u...

The war is over if there was a war I hope we won A little boy waits with a lever on his own So I craft a ship to fly my way back home When the ocean of the sky swallows me whole I’ve never felt so far from home and I like it Never been so left alone for so lo...

Time kills, go ask Jesus I'm done, makes no difference Stare straight, stare at the sun I'm done, makes no difference Time takes us all So why am I not just living for today Time takes us, time takes us all Will I die right now, I'm only seconds away...

I set out alone, Crawl through the tunnel, My eyes can hardly see the other side, No longer cold, Or feeling in trouble, I realize that I am just alive.... So let it shine, Cause we are, the light in the tunnel, We are the living and dying, See how we are, al...

In my eyes, coarse and jaded, it's no surprise the lights have faded. I always walk away, you'll always hear me say: ‘I don't need this.’ I've been given such a gift, shame to take advantage of it. Wanted wasting leaves you wanting more, be careful what you'...

The way I broke your heart very literally This ghost haunts me more than it should be I'm not gonna walk away or turn my head in shame I never thought it could kill me A clean slate, one more day further away I want you, you don't want me My mistake for wast...

Close my eyes and move to the back of my mind The worries are washed out to sea See the changes, people's faces blurred out Like sunspots or raindrops... Now all those feelings, those yesterdays feelings will all be lost in time. but today ive wasted awa...
