No Hardcore Dancing In The Living Room lyrics - Chiodos

I've resolved upon this course, which has no need of you
Denying this day, didn't stop it from coming
Promise me, that you won't be consumed when you realize
We're screaming at the same moon

Shredded by state lines
Press my face up against the glass
With both eyelids shut and
Baby, this won't get any easier
Baby, this won't get any easier
Baby, this won't get any easier

Don't let this die, we may never fall in love again
It's hard but worth the wait when it's over
...this die, we may never fall in love again
It's hard but worth the wait when it's over

Now open up wide, fist first down your throat
Where no beauty lies, and rip out what should've been mine

Comfort always made the rescue, we always hoped 'for the best'
I'll burn this with torches, and drown in my consideration

I'll burn this with torches, and drown in my consideration

Who's Sandie Jenkins? lyrics - Chiodos

Forget I even called
Why even try to end things on a good note
I should've left with no reply
These next few days you're only a stranger
Our demise awoke the same time that I did

Pull the hair from my scalp
Peek through bloody holes
Witness thoughts I can't describe

From behind, whisper in your ear, 'stop screaming'
Taste my knife
Tears scatter red, you're still bleeding

Tend to me tonight

May it be the last of our alliance

To Trixie And Reptile, Thanks For Everything lyrics - Chiodos

This is it, our one chance to make things right
Post love affliction
Our hearts nightmares won't let this happen again
Name the last time I wrote about something other than you

I'll keep dreaming
Not another word sweetheart
Nothing is perfect, but it has to be someday
So I'll keep dreaming
We have to be someday

When I'm the reflection in her sun bright eye
Knees go weak, and lips quiver
The split second before they meet

I'll keep dreaming
Not another word sweetheart
Nothing is perfect, but it has to be someday
So I'll keep dreaming
We have to be someday

This is our annual

If you believed what you felt you would be in love

This is our

If you believed what you felt you would be in love

If we believe

Queen Of Diamonds lyrics - Chiodos

Look at all that rain
Let it keep on rain
What light is for lovers
High on their seats undercover
So get up and leave the room
So get up and leave the room
And lose what you love
So get up and leave the room
So get up and leave the room
And lose what you love
What light is for lovers
High on their seats undercover
I caught the queen of diamonds
I caught the queen of diamonds
I caught the queen staring back at me
I caught the queen of diamonds
I caught the queen of diamonds
I caught the queen staring back at me

Compromise Of 1984 lyrics - Chiodos

Came to compromise for all of me that has withered up and,
Faded like a fallen sunset.
Came to compromise and let this music paint our silence,
Like a fallen sunset.

And it's each beat pounding in my head.
This too familiar sound of failure
This song I can't get out of my head.
This too familiar sound repeating
Every note making up for words unsaid.
This too familiar sound
We've all sang this same hymn of infatuation.

We're making up for each bitter tongue,
Letting the world know in different ways.
Taking our feelings we can't express,
And showcasing them as if, as if they really mattered.

Here we go
Save me (Save me)

These strings are the only ones connected to my heart,
That no one can play with.
These are the only strings connected to my heart,
That no one can play with.
We're letting the world know

We're making up for each bitter tongue,
We both are letting the world know in different ways.
Taking our feelings we can't express,
And showcasing them as if, as if they really mattered.

Rainclouds For Eyeballs lyrics - Chiodos

It's safe to come out now,
No one is around,
This sugar coated donut lost its flavor long ago.
And I just don't know what to think,
When your disguise begins to show.
Now I know,
I always think to slow.

'Cause I never
Thought I would miss
Our sweet forever
Of passion violence
But I can't forget
The wretched torment
It's on its noose
And hung beneath my ribs

You're hung beneath my ribs...

Can't you see,
Can't you see,
Why can't you see?

My heart is branded,
It's all your fault.
You're hanging from my ribs,
And I hope you fall.
My heart is branded,
It's all your fault.
You're hanging from my ribs,
And I hope you fall...

'Cause I never
Thought I would miss
Our sweet forever
Of passion violence
But I can't forget
The wretched torment
It's on its noose
And hung beneath my ribs

Ravishing Matt Ruth lyrics - Chiodos

This melody never seemed quite right
Nothing you could ever sing along to
Eerie rhythms creeping through doors

If I close my eyes
Count to ten you will never see me
You won't ever see me
You won't ever see me

Hide in sanction
I'll show you how I bury myself tonight
This fear runs through my veins

Run run as fast as you can
Never look behind and never turn around
Run run till I find who I am
Never look behind and never turn around

Run run as fast as you can
Never look behind and never turn around
Run till I find who I am
Never look behind and never turn around

As I fall face down
I was young and now I still remember, still remember
Everything and all the pain you caused
But now I can't resist these evil thoughts
I still remember
I still remember everything
All the pain you caused
I'm living in this misery resisting evil thoughts
I still remember everything
All the pain you caused
I'm living in this misery resisting evil thoughts

This is what's been haunting me
Beaten tossed around blatantly
I scream out loud
I scream out loud
I can't scream any louder

Vacation To Hell lyrics - Chiodos

Let's let the memories drift away
Let's let the memories drift away

I'm taking down these pictures of you on my wall
These scars still bleed and I'm letting them drip on our past
I'm torn between decision and dead reckoning
If I'm not fair then tell me, why do you still care?

"Get out the car and walk away"
I said with dried tears in my eyes hoping you'd ignore my words
You slammed the door and spun around as fast as you could
To get away from all this mess

So take this night
(So take this night)
And search for your answers
I know you'll find what's right and you'll still put me through hell

I'm taking down these pictures of you on my wall
These scars still bleed and I'm letting them drip on our past
I'm torn between decision and dead reckoning
If I'm not fair then tell me, why do you still care?

These scars run deep and they cover me
Like an open wound without breathing room
I can't heal like this but it's you I miss
This war won't end

These words are coming out slowly and I mean it when I say I need you
This war won't end
You keep your heart where I can barely reach it and yet it's right in front of me
This war won't end
It'd be better off for the both of us if we'd took these truths and walk away
This war won't end

I'm taking down these pictures of you on my wall
These scars still bleed and I'm letting them drip on our past
I'm torn between decision and dead reckoning
If I'm not fair then tell me, why do you still care?

The Lover And The Liar lyrics - Chiodos

[Whispers if you play backwards:]
How does it feel to know that you've taken someone's smile

We're on a search to find the feeling for which we all die
It appeared the answer to the problem
And a reason to smile

Two lost hearts and one caught in the middle
They came together and the other fell apart
It appeared the answer to the problem
I have no reason to smile

The connection... eyes meeting
Lips touching... screaming "Sweet sayonara"
And the other gracious sounds of Claudio
Sweat, spit, and tears exchanged alike
Mistakes made and forgiveness but the eyes still met
And the lover still loved and the liar still lied

Then came the downfall to one's heaven stuck in a world where nothing is beautiful
The nail was in the coffin...it hadn't been buried yet
Nothing but an open casket for him to kneel and weep
(A lover and liar the pain finally stopping for him to try and take his own life)
(And the blood of a body that was once so pure)

It's come together, it's time to change what the script reads
There's no such thing as happy endings
This masterpiece is finally ending slowly
Microphone psychiatry...good-bye for good

It's come together, it's time to change what the script reads
There's no such thing as happy endings
This masterpiece is finally ending slowly
Microphone psychiatry...

Two lost hearts and one caught in the middle
They came together and the other fell apart
It appeared the answer to the problem
I have no reason to smile

Cravings fulfilled hate on oneself...good-bye for good.

Hathaway Lane lyrics - Chiodos

Why don't you use your knives,
Continue to stick them in my face
Leave them to be our memories
That I plan to lose
Just like I lost you

I guess I'll just cope with what I can't control
After all it means the best for the both of us

At night when you hear me breathing
Under the covers is where you'll find me
Trying to escape your endless reign of terror
Stale sweat running all over my body
I'm drowning in my dreams
I'm drowning in my dreams
I can't wake now
I'll sleep forever
I can't wake now

What if tomorrow never comes
How will I know you loved me?
I just need something to live for
So I'll never die again.
What if tomorrow never comes
How will I know you loved me?
I just need something to live for
So I'll never die again. Again.

Bulls Have Horns lyrics - Chiodos

Last night your taste was beautiful
But my tongue doesn't know the truth
Cause when it's drown in poison chemicals I see the better side of you
Our promise was that we would save ourselves before our minds lost all control
But then our clothes hit the floor
Now today you called and told me that it only hurts more

The phone's been off the hook for three hours now
My heart beats fast as the pulse of the tone
Blocking conversation I'm hiding from your lies
Lies that make you take back what's been said
I'm so angry it's hard to even talk anymore
With words as my weapons
I would say to you
Now it's over

No shields can prevent these sharp syllables
I tell myself you'll never let go (you will never let this go)
Still I'm the one who is blamed for this

Lies depicted a remainder of trust
Something deeper than a story

Will you hold my eyelids open as I paste your blood on my pupils
Then teach me to see with my ears
So I'll find out what true beauty really is

Why can't I take back all the time that I wasted on you
And use on friends that won't bring me down
Because everytime it seems the same way
And I know that they're there for me and they hate to see I'm ruined
So give me one good reason why you're still in love

I see you standing all alone
And if that one good reason is not enough
I want to be let go
Just give me on good reason why you're still in love

Quantum Mechanics (And Hydrodynamics) lyrics - Chiodos

It's been so long it seems since summer's captivation.
Entranced in nightly dreams, you can't escape these memories.
Reasons turned into excuses, the one's that I abused.
Spinning you round in circles, out of breathe and leaving you confused.
The miles in between us. forcing different worlds apart.
Exposing these lost feelings I know now where you stand.
Now that I see you never really had my heart.
Stop doubting what was said and just know that I am right.
Cause im losing all my strength and I cant take another fight.
If we wait until then we would know that time was on our side.
But you had to act to quick on the feelings you can't hide.
Your voice was broken cracking from the need for air.
The noise that soothes me to sleep.
Your tears came falling, grasping black and writing, my name upon your cheeks.
And as I open this letter, I skim the words bathed in your perfume and they said, "why cant we see forever.
Our differences will bring us together hiding truths that made us unstable now I regret every moment I forgave you".
And that's all I have to remember cause that's all I found

Roger's And Holland's Feelings lyrics - Chiodos

There is no trace of a healing.
Your falling tears ignite this selfish feeling.
It keeps me warm to know you're not content.
A quick reminder of our winters spent.
As we consume our last moments together, a lesson learned that will haunt us forever.
It took an ending for me to realize, to face these pacts and retract our growing lies.
Don't tell me I was a mistake and you regret every choice we made.
And think of nothing every time you hear my name and if you don't bow your head and feel ashamed.
When our eyes last met I knew that you were not ok, but nothing matters when your surfing on these vibes.
I have these thoughts of holding hands with you another day.
There is no cure, there is no cure.
For the sickness that you bring, with what you bring.

Deserving An Explanation lyrics - Chiodos

This seam is splitting, torn apart.
Lacerations from the thoughts of you.
Choking me, your words shoved down my throat.
And I'm still bleeding from our first kiss.
The taste so painful I'm forced to clench my fists.
Every time you turn around, you'll feel my presence.
And when you glance up at the stars.
Everyone will be crashing down on you, whoa, you'll see me, the sky, calling out your name.
And yet for some reason, I still absent mindedly come back for more.
Maybe someday I'll realize that this storm will someday pass me by.

Lindsay Quit Lollygagging lyrics - Chiodos

Bite my tongue, right now the perfect time
Do anything to make her happy
Even if it means my being miserable
As long as she's loving life

I will be able to sleep at night
With a smile upon her face
I will be able to sleep at night
With a smile upon her face

Thought of a smile not being there
My inner feelings would be shattered
A piece of glass puncturing my heart
I'm bleeding from the inside

I will be able to sleep at night
With a smile upon her face
I will be able to sleep at night
With a smile upon her face

As long as she's perfectly fine
I hope she's perfectly fine
And some day she will be mine

I will be able to sleep at night
With a smile upon her face

As long as she's perfectly fine
I hope she's perfectly fine
And some day she will be mine

Ode To The Second Hour lyrics - Chiodos

Look at those fears we share,
It seems to be nothing,
But we had a heart attack,
And I find myself making a puddle, oh no.
Your immaculate eyes connecting with mine
Was enough to make me crave my feelings to intertwine.

But you're too beautiful,
I can never compare with your picture perfect smile,
And flowing brown hair.
No one will be able to give you what you deserve.
(No one will be)

In the meantime, I sit around,
Thinking of you, dreaming of your touch,
And what it must be like
Stuck in my dreams, night and day,
I'm not even working at all.
Maybe I'll have the gall to walk up and say

You're too beautiful,
I can never compare with your picture perfect smile,
And flowing brown hair.
No one will be able to give you what you deserve.
(No one will be)

Why can't you get out of my dreams,
And into my life?
Why can't you get out of my dreams,
And into my life?
And everything we'd go through,
I'll be right by your side.

Open The Fridge lyrics - Chiodos

These tears run down my face tasting of salt
As feel my heart begin to break
Your love for me comes to a screeching halt
The service that your preaching makes me quake

Please I'm begging you to woo me
Falling in love
Please I'm begging you to make me suffer
Falling in love with you

I could spend forever with you
But that's the last thing that would make you happy
You want to spend forever alone
Or at least I hope you do

Please I'm begging you to woo me
Falling in love
Please I'm begging you to make me suffer
Falling in love with you

Just stay oh so far away from me
Keep your distance and stay alone forever
Just stay oh so far away from me
Keep your distance and stay alone forever

Lindsay Quit Lollygagging lyrics - Chiodos

Bite my tongue, right now the perfect time
Do anything to make her happy
Even if it means my being miserable
As long as she's loving life

I will be able to sleep at night
With a smile upon her face
I will be able to sleep at night
With a smile upon her face

Thought of a smile not being there
My inner feelings would be shattered
A piece of glass puncturing my heart
I'm bleeding from the inside

I will be able to sleep at night
With a smile upon her face
I will be able to sleep at night
With a smile upon her face

As long as she's perfectly fine
I hope she's perfectly fine
And some day she will be mine

I will be able to sleep at night
With a smile upon her face

As long as she's perfectly fine
I hope she's perfectly fine
And some day she will be mine

Thursday lyrics - Chiodos

Weekend day,
To Hell goes the phone.
I must have heard that story a million times before.
No more wake up calls,
At least not for a week or two.
The plainest feeling, love,
Ya know we'd daze a few.

No, I don't have the time of day.
There's just not enough time in a day for me.

And this is for the best,
Me seeing you less.
Sleeping in is what you call the best.
God I knows I'm plenty hurt,
And better off alone.
I know I can do it,
But I'm not sure how.

No, I don't have the time of day.
There's just not enough time in a day for me.

No, I don't have the time of day.
There's just not enough time in a day for me.
(For me)

Adrienne lyrics - Chiodos

This happiness surpasses me.
Just running up and down my spine
Whenever I'm around you
My smile beings to shine.

The love I feel for you
is quite hard for anyone to find.
You're the one that I want to
wake up next to,
and just give us
Your beautiful blue eyes.

Please never, ever leave me.
Just stay right here,
Always by my side.

Your beauty radiates
just like the sun.
When I'm around you,
I tend to lose my breath.
There's no doubt
that you're the one.
Your great smile makes me feel alive.
Your flawless personality,
combined with your godly looks,
makes you more than perfect.

Please never, ever leave me.
Just stay right here,
Always by my side.

Please never, ever leave me.
Just stay right here,
Always by my side.

Flagpole Sitta lyrics - Chiodos

(originally by Harvey Danger)

I had visions I was in them I was looking into the mirror
To see a little bit clearer
The rottenness and evil in me Fingertips have memories
Mine can't forget the curves
of your body And when I feel a bit naughty
I run it up the flagpole and see who salutes
(But no one ever does) ...
I'm not sick, but I'm not well
and I'm so hot 'cause I'm in hell

Been around the world and found
That only stupid people are breeding
The cretins cloning and feeding And I don't even own a TV
Put me in the hospital for nerves
And then they had to commit me You told them all
I was crazy They cut off my legs now I'm an amputee
Goddamn you

I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And it's a sin, to live so well

I wanna publish 'zines And rage against machines
I wanna pierce my tongue It doesn't hurt, it feels fine
The trivial sublime I'd like to turn off time
And kill my mind You kill my mind Mind...
Paranoia, paranoia Everybody's comin' to get me
Just say you never met me
I'm runnin' underground with the moles
Diggin' holes Hear the voices in my head
I swear to God it sounds like they're snoring
But if you're bored then you're boring
The agony and the irony, they're killing me, whoa!

I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And it's a sin to live this well (One, two, three, four!)

Pirates And Rebels lyrics - Chiodos

(Keep me warm!)
It existed and come to we're meant together
Nothing could keep you warmer
What I wanna know is why your jabbing these feelings
Make me lose control
So lets take out the goblet
Point this straight ahead
We'll hang them in admit they're wrong
The girls giving jealousy
This is killing me
(this is killing me)
For worth your twelve inch
Show that you still care
(stop this flame thrower)
(stop this flame thrower)
Show that you feel
Confusing thoughts with ceiling tiles
Crashing fists of both grown solid
Confusing thoughts with ceiling tiles
Classic fists applaud
Ceiling tiles from solid walls
It existed and come to we're meant together
Nothing could keep you warmer
What I wanna know is why your jabbing these feelings
Make me lose control
So lets take out the goblet
Point this straight ahead
We'll hang them in admit they're wrong
The girls giving jealousy
This is killing me
(this is killing me)
For wroth your twelve inch
Show that you still care
(stop this flame thrower)
(stop this flame thrower)
Show that you feel
This is spending me
This is eating me alive
The knife hits the ground
A corpse is laying cold
The ending hurts
(the ending hurts)
In stained water
(the end)

Thermacare lyrics - Chiodos

We all know, we all know by now,
that you're the only thing you talk about.

So forgive me for bragging out loud.
I tried to reason with myself.
Tell me what could I have done?

Maybe I should have asked you to stay
like I was gone, then just get up and hand it away.
Well babe, like they say about some things,
well I guess something never changed.

We all know, we all know by now
that you're the only thing you talk about.
We all know, we all know by now
that things won't work out, no.
You've got nothing to say.

You've got nothing,
you've got nothing to say.

Some day I hope you see
the consequences of your actions.
I know that I can do so much more without you.
Well babe, like they say about some things,
well I guess something never changed.

We all know, we all know by now
that you're the only thing you talk about.
We all know, we all know by now
that things won't work out, no,
I never really had a doubt
that things would end up to be this way.
And I never meant to make them seem that way.

You've got nothing to say.
You've got nothing to say.
You've got nothing to say.
You've got nothing to say.
You've got nothing.

I knew as soon as I'd left,
that you'd go and fuck someone else, you whore.

You've got nothing to say.
We all know, we all know by now
that you're the only thing you talk about.
We all know, we all know by now
that things won't work out, no,
I never really had a doubt
that things would end up to be this way.
And I never meant to make them seem that way.

You've got nothing to say.
You've got nothing to say.
You've got nothing to say.
You've got nothing.
