Beautiful Rose / Morning Star:
"All My Friends Are In Bar Bands" - The Wonder Years
These Car Keys Laying To My Left Are Just The Muddled Symbol Of Hope That God Knows That I Would Understand:
"Hoodie Weather" - The Wonder Years
Lyrics
It smells like it should be snowing
And I've been frequenting a diner on Main Street
Where the waitresses are girls who graduated with me
Have problems with oxy and can't recall what I had to drink
No one knows where they're going
They just know they want out of here badly
Like cigarettes dropped on a highway, they'll smash and scatter and burn out
Somewhere else without knowing
I've got my grandmother's veins in the back of my hands and
Just a hint of a South Philly accent
I was born here, I'll probably die here
Let's go home
This town's got lots to tell
I'll wait around to hear you out but
I can't keep from digging up these bones
Forever
At least for now we'll settle down
I'll try to find some solid ground
I lost my footing trying to get home
Last winter
The kids in the graduating class
Have got their eyes set west
And California on their lips
But I left some blood there that I'm never getting back
Well, Lock is in the deep south
I don't think he's coming back now
It's sinister
But it's not like we'll tell
I've got my grandmother's veins in the back of my hand and
Just a hint of a South Philly accent
I was born here, I'll probably die here
Let's go home
This town's got lots to tell
I'll wait around to hear you out but
I can't keep from digging up these bones
Forever
At least for now we'll settle down
I'll try to find some solid ground
I lost my footing trying to get home
Last winter
Growing up means
Watching my heroes turn human in front of me
And the songs we wrote at 18
Seem short-sighted and naive
So when the weather breaks
I'll pull my hoodie up over my face
And we'll run away, run away
Cuz as f***ed as this place got, it made me me
This town's got lots to tell
I'll wait around to hear you out but
I can't keep from digging up these bones
Forever
At least for now we'll settle down
I'll try to find some solid ground
I lost my footing trying to get home
Last winter
This town's got lots to tell
Let's Have A Moment Of Noise For The Dead Mime:
"MH 4.18.2011" - blink-182
Lyrics
Coming in, coming in, kill the radio silence
Break down in L.A.
Giving up, giving in to a feeling of violence
There's hell to pay
So, let's light another match, stop living in the past
Where nobody can hear me now
Blow the lock off the cage, watch the children come of age
When their parents stop to take a bow
Nothing takes root in this barren soil
Nothing takes root in this barren soil
Maybe there's no one there at all
Hold on, the worst is yet to come
Save your money for hired guns
Hold strong when everything you loved is gone
Slow down, stop living in the shadow of a helicopter
Line 'em up on the wall, coming out with their hands up
Give 'em all the chair
Let 'em burn, let 'em fall, let the end of the world come
Who's left to care?
Nothing takes root in this barren soil
Nothing takes root, but we bend and toil
Maybe there's no one there at all
Black Friday:
"Man Overboard" - blink-182
Lyrics
So sorry it's over, so sorry it's over
There's so much more that I wanted and
There's so much more that I needed and
Time keeps moving on and on and on
Soon we'll all be gone
Let's take some time to talk this over
You're out of line and rarely sober
We can't depend on your excuses
Cuz in the end it's fricking useless
You can only lean on me for so long
Bring the ship about to watch a friend drown
Stood out on the ledge, begged you to come down
You can only lean on me for so long
I remember shots but not a chaser
After my thoughts now you're a stranger
Cover up your scars, put on your game face
Left you in the bar to try to save face
Man on a mission
Can't say I miss him around
Insider information
Hand in your resignation
Loss of a good friend
Best of intentions I found
Tight-lipped procrastination
"Yeah, later. See you around."
Happy Thanksgiving:
""What If We [Swam] Into Nothing?"" - The Wonder Years
Lyrics
We fell asleep last night watching TV
And the images worked their way into my dreams
We were watching turtles climbing the beach
The way she's looking at him is how you're looking at me
So if you miss me or you get lonely
Then you can swim back, just swim back
You'll swim back to me and I'll be watching the sea
For when you dance over the breakers and waltz up the beach
Swim back to me cuz you've been gone since spring
You know that we can't breathe alone in the Gulf Stream
It's you with those sleepy eyes and heart-shaped shell that
Keep me awake at night so
Meet me in the shallows off of Cozumel
We'll live our lives covered by moonlight
Maybe we were brought together by the ebb tide
It pulled the world beneath me and left you by my side
"What if we swam into nothing?"
At least you'd still be beside me
So if we swam into nothing
I'd still be smiling
"First!":
"Start The Reactor" - Set Your Goals
If you don't need a thing from me, I'll get out of here - I'll leave
Cuz I've never cared what they think
And I've never been afraid but if I wanna learn how to be
I won't need to look far to see
It's just the way I feel
I wanna break things, I wanna break rules
I don't do this to fit in or feel cool
I do this because it's what I love
I always want to feel this young
Take back what's yours, don't let it slip away
Feel the fear and know it's here and disregard it anyway
Looking back at, looking back at your life
If you know yourself then you can trust when it's right
So we strive to do the best that we can
With the cons that have been placed in our hands
Don't forget about the things that you said
All we wish for is gone in the end
(Don't let) Just remember what matters the most
(Fantasy) Is the "why" of the "do"s and the "don't"s
(Blind you from) There are reasons behind all the rules
(Reality) Don't forget or you'll fall
So when you look back will you let go?
Learn from the past or you will never know
