Альбом Four Year Strong

start the take over
this is your last warning
our time has come and we're going straight on till morning
just turn up our soundtrack
and we'll keep singing out loud
we're going straight on till morning
start the take over

Ladies and gentlemen, open up your eyes and ears
And listen up! Listen up!
Calling all cars! Calling all cars! Calling all cars!
Let's put an end to the charade

Show me what you're living for
You think it's obvious. You're so oblivious.
I spit my teeth out on the floor.
Don't tell me - I don't want to know!

I breathe revenge tonight. It never tastes too sweet
And baby, if I choke things down for a second,
Then maybe I can starve this tragedy.
Don't tell me - I don't want to know!

So get your story straight.
I can think of one reason for you to call home tonight.
If I had my way, you would find out the hard way.
Causing trouble is my business and the business is good.

So now I'm
Calling all cars! Calling all cars! Calling all cars!
It's time to show you my battle scars
And let you know that I'll be coming back for more

I breathe revenge tonight. It never tastes too sweet
And baby, if I choke things down for a second,
Then maybe I can starve this tragedy.
Don't tell me - I don't want to know!

I breathe revenge tonight. It never tastes too sweet
And baby, if I choke things down for a second,
Then maybe I can starve this tragedy.
Don't tell me - I don't want to know!

(I'll let you know that I'll be coming back for more.
It's too late for me, kid.
These words are too true
When your heart beats only lies, you're dead inside.

And God forbid when you find yourself off and remembering on
And God forbid when you can't find the switch in the words
To a song
But it's too late to see me through, kid.)

I breathe revenge tonight. It never tastes too sweet
And baby, if I choke things down for a second,
Then maybe I can starve this tragedy.
Don't tell me - I don't want to know!

I breathe revenge tonight. It never tastes too sweet
And baby, if I choke things down for a second,
Then maybe I can starve this tragedy.
Don't tell me - I don't want to know!

don't make a sound
it's time to throw it into lockdown
watch me knock down this mess that i got myself into
for a small commission i'll show you how
if you just get off the ground
you gotta move a little faster
faster make it out of this disaster before you get factored out

turn, turn the page
another line i should have saved
but who's to say that you would've been blown away
cause you've always been blown away

anchor come and drag me down
before i take a dive
(i'll take what i can't get)
leave me for dead i've always said you'd find me in over my head
now you can take it literal instead
so now i'm bringing it back
(i'll take what i cant get)
anchor drag me down before i take the dive

call off the search
there's been no sign for days and there's no way to save the shore
if less is more
i'm sweating up a fever that's been spreading on the dance floor
pick your feet up off the ground
you gotta move a little faster
faster to make it out of this disaster
on your last hope when you fall to your knees

turn, turn the page
another line i should have saved
but who's to say that you would've been blown away
cause you've always been blown away

anchor come and drag me down
before i take a dive
(i'll take what i can't get)
leave me for dead i've always said you'd find me in over my head
now you can take it literal instead
so now i'm bringing it back
(i'll take what i cant get)
anchor drag me down before i take the dive

at first let the weight of all this pressure i was fine
but now i feel like i have buried myself alive

drag me out and push me down
but hurry up before the surface freezes over now
i'm gonna go
i'm going down without a sound

anchor come and drag me down (4x)
before i take the dive

anchor come and drag me down
before i take a dive
(i'll take what i can't get)
leave me for dead i've always said you'd find me in over my head
now you can take it literal instead
so now i'm bringing it back
(i'll take what i cant get)
anchor drag me down before i take the dive

before i take the dive
(i'll take what i can't get)
anchor drag me down before i take the dive

Oh, something tells me
I'm never gone live this one down
But I'll try
I'm gonna need a quick hand,
A sharp eye, a smooth talker
Just to play this one out to the very end.

And this is where you come in
I know, that I could count on you to walk me through
And I'm making sure that anyone who's anyone
Can be the someone that they've always wanted to.

If I couldn't get away with anything
Then how in the hell did I get here
Say something. Say anything.
You were never the one to have something to say.
Say something. say something. say anything.

I've seen the best and worst of you
But we're sticking through
Because without all of the ups and downs
We've been through
You know that its true
That I could get really sick and tired of you.

Oh, something tells me
I'm never gonna live this one down
But I'm down and out
Cause if the tensions light as a feather
Then I'd be bored stiff
We gotta mix things up a bit to keep up my interest

Sad enough to say that
Alone I could barely light a match
But together we can burn this place down.

Sorry about the mess
But when we team up
We always seem to bring this place to the ground

And this is where you come in
I know, that I could count on you to walk me through
(count on you to walk me through)
And I'm making sure that anyone whos anyone
Can be the someone that they've always wanted to.

I've seen the best and worst of you
But we're sticking through
Because without all of the ups and downs
We've been through
You know that its true
That I could get really sick and tired of you.

Sad enough to say that

Sad enough to say that
(I won't ever lower my standards)
Alone I could barely light a match
But together we can burn this place down.

Sad enough to say that
Alone I could barely light a match
But together we can burn this place down.

Oh! (teh mad breakdownz!!1)

She's one in a million
Which makes my chances about a million to one
Like finding all the answers to every single question you've ever asked yourself
While you're starring down the barrel of a loaded gun
Life throws a punch and I hit the floor bruised and broken
But still I'm begging for just one more
Call it compassion or satisfaction
But she keeps my heart beating for one beat more

She don't give me anything to breath about
But safe to say, and in contrast to point
She's not someone I want to breath about
Don't go running away from
All the things you're feeling inside
That's right, I don't care if she leaves me gasping for air
But she keeps me coming back for more

She's harsh in manifold perfectly promising and that's all that counts
Head over heels -heart over odds
Do you want to know the secret about her?
Yeah, but can you speak up just a little louder?
So come on- Check! Check! Can you hear me now?

And I'll start fighting my way to the top
I've got a long way to go
But I know that I just won't stop until I'm over and done with
Cold, rotten and gone stiff
Six feet under those sic inch heels

She don't give me anything to breath about
But safe to say, and in contrast to point
She's not someone I want to breath about
Don't go running away from
All the things you're feeling inside
That's right, I don't care if she leaves me gasping for air
But she keeps me coming back for more

So come on- Check! Check! Can you hear me now?

then youll know what to do and well pick it up
pick it up and give it right back to you

i never thought it would be this easy
to spread you like a disease
and this scene should be shreddin up your dignity
youll always be sucha catastrophe

and im making a list of all your so called big plans
and im really having trouble cuz
its longer than the strech of my attention span
wait what were we talkin about again

youve gotta build it and then breakdown
give it a daze to drop your jaw to the ground
then youll know what to do and well pick it up
pick it up and give it right back to you

save your breath and get down with me
i never thought it would be this easy
to spread you like a disease
and this scene should be shreddin up your dignity
youll always be sucha catastrophe

and do you have what it takes to raise the stakes
and show you have it in you to just pick up and go

untill the end because im on to you
im gonna need a shovel to dig myself outta this one

save your breath and get down with me
i never thought it would be this easy
to spread you like a disease
and this scene should be shreddin up your dignity
youll always be sucha catastrophe (2x)

Keep it up (like you even know how to stop)
Call me up if you think that you've had enough
I'll show you two ways to bleed
If you just show me those teeth
Under those famous lips of yours

Now show me what you're working with (not that it's a secret)
Dance your way from bed to bed
And try not to make it so obvious
You always make it too obvious
I'm finding that all of the things that you've thrown away
Have found their way back to my door
You're like a fever I can't get over
I'm finding that all of the things that you've thrown away [x2]
And I'm beating my self up over this

Are you ready for some good news?
I had you two made from the start
You thought you wouldn't get caught
It'll be my time to shine
The next time the clock strikes 12:34
On the bell until then I'll see you in hell

Now show me what you're working with (not that it's a secret)
Dance your way from bed to bed
And try not to make it so obvious

You always make it too obvious

I'm finding that all of the things that you've thrown away
Have found their way back to my door
You're like a fever I can't get over
I'm beating myself up over this
You're like a fever I can't get over
I'm beating myself up over this

Roll with the punches
Because you know that it's inevitable
Soon to be unforgettable, yet, totally unpredictable
I'm either calling it quits or you're calling me out
Its not who or what you know because you're better with nothing at all.

Sing it back to me; this is your life story
You didn't even know it you're trying not to blow it
Because you're kicking back a death wish and here I am just riding out the storm
Believe me when I say that I want to give up
I want to give up but its bad enough to keep me hooked
just to watch you curse my name and toss and turn

Turn around and cross the line you so casually walk between function and fashion
Are you dressed to kill or dressed to impress?
Don't act like you can do better than this.

Let me see you put your hands upon the stereo
Its spitting out a ridiculous frequency
But turn it up turn it up
Break a sweat
Cause were just burning up and hitting up the scene that was ours to hit up
Take take me out because I'm ready for your best shot
Make make me out to be a bullet from the pulpit
Or anything that would make you believe
All that we've seen would be just another scene
That was our to hit up

Play it back for me, if you feel you've got to
Do you want to call it intuition
Cause after intermission we'll be flashing the house lights
To let you know that we're back in action
Simply for your satisfaction

Turn around and cross the line you so casually walk between function and fashion
Are you dressed to kill or dressed to impress?
Don't act like you can do better than this

(you're better with nothing at all.)

Hit the pavement and drive for the first time in a long time
And pray that everything works out fine
She said try to have a good time
And get your fill of cheap thrills
And try anything to save a dime
So lets get moving, and lets get grooving
To every single word weve grown to know
Until we get car sick, play our hands quick
And try to save ourselves along the way

Youre a gamble
And Ive got nothing left to lose or prove
You think you got me in the back of you pocket and you do
So take a breath and try to keep it down
Cuz I love these girls but I hate this town
But Im positive that theres nothing about you to get to know

Hit the lights and get down for the best time in a long time
And try to think of every last line
She said, Try to have a good time,
Dont put up with the hard hits,
Theyll just hit you harder every time
That you get moving, youll just keep losing
What little but of mind that you have left.
So try and please me, and take it easy
And try to keep your thoughts above the belt.

Youre a gamble
And Ive got nothing left to lose or prove
You think you got me in the back of you pocket and you do
So take a breath and try to keep it down
Cuz I love these girls but I hate this town
But Im positive that theres nothing about you to get to know

Take it or leave me behind because you know that you never did care at all.
My poor ears have had it, you're coming in static.
Face down on the floor, tuned out across the board like a million times before.
You're living it up now, just wait until it goes down.
How did you get everything you want
When you never did a thing to deserve what you got?
You've got it made, got it all for yourself because that's the only thing
You really seem to care about.

Something tells me I'm in for something good, then the bottle opens
And here we go again.

I won't let you drag me down, no
Not one bit to get yourself back up.
I hope that, for your sake, you make it out in time.
So leave the light on or you'll never make it out alive.

Save it for someone who cares.
You should know that I never did care at all.
And now my sore eyes have had it, I'm kicking this habit.
So pick it up just like you said you'd do, because you've always got a point to prove.
It's win or lose, it's time to choose
You play it like you're hard, but I think I'm on to you.

YOU'RE BEARING LIES ON YOUR CHEST!
THE BOTTLE OPENS AGAIN AND HERE WE GO AGAIN!!
Something tells me I'm in for something good.
Tell me how you like it.

Something tells me I'm in for something good, then the bottle opens
And here we go again.

I won't let (won't let) you drag me down, no
Not one bit to get (to get) yourself back up.
I hope that, for your sake, you make it out in time.
So leave the light on or you'll never make it out alive.

Won't let (won't let) you drag me down, no
Not one bit to get (to get) yourself back up.
I hope that, for your sake, you make it out in time.
So leave the light on or you'll never make it out alive.

All you have has been falling down around you
And I found a way to get along without you

You gave it up, to give it down
What it was that gave you definition
You'll say for what?
Besides the will to give in to temptation
Think of what your asking for
It's only right that it hurts more than it should
To remain select and understood

So let me tell you it's cold out there at the top of the world
You look alone and scared with nothing to hold
You're being black and blue when your coulda been gold
So let me tell you it's cold out there at the top of the world

Here at the top of the world.
I've always heard that the good die young
There's little time left to prove them wrong
You burnt the bride that your walked here on
Here at the top

Tonight we save the world
Today we have to save ourselves
We have to save ourselves from losing on what we pride ourselves on choosing
It's all that's left that we can depend on
But it gets to hard to have an opinion
on the loyalties unspoken and the thoughts that can't be broken

So let me tell you it's cold out there at the top of the world
You look alone and scared with nothing to hold
You're being black and blue when your coulda been gold
So let me tell you it's cold out there at the top of the world

Here at the top of the world.
I've always heard that the good die young
There's little time left to prove them wrong
You burnt the bride that your walked here on
Here at the top of the world.

Waahhhh

Tonight
Here at the top of the world
Tonight
Here at the top of the world

Rise or die
Here at the top of the world
Rise or die
Here at the top of the world

Here at the top of the world
Here at the top of the world

Rise or die
Here at the top of the world
Rise or die
Here at the top of the world

Im not a kid you would call a tradition
I dont live my life by the human condition
Or regard warnings or lurking suspicions
Of a life lead after dark
Im not one to think that half the suspense is
Knowing what action has consequences
Or knowing what day is the week it really is
Not that it ever mattered.

Im sure Ill see you around
But I dont get up until the sun is down
So if you think you can wait around
Ill be back to see you off in the morning

Ive got this thing its call having a goodtime
The only difference is I dont rock sunshine
Or rainy day getaways that always make me stay in the same place
Now let me candid
I know you cant stand it when I push the subject
But you push the rhythm
Of speech

Im stuck in a town thats not enough for me
Dont tell me that its easy
Some say that Im bad news
But Ive got some new for you
We live a life that nobody knows
Were having fun and Im sure that it really shows
Obnoxiously and selfishly
But we have our way of keeping ourselves busy

Were always off and on
Dont tell me Im wrong
Im only making and breaking
The ties that did not belong in the first place
But in your case
Really you should brace yourself
And trace your steps
Back to the time we thought that
Hanging on sidewalks would never be second best
But we would find out soon that
We were never as good as the rest.
So I said

Is this what you wanted?
A friend less motivated
Tell me this is what you wanted
A friendless situation.
Is this what you wanted?
A friend less motivated
Tell me this is what you wanted
A friendless situation.
Because who needs enemies
When youve got friends like these

If you think were staying strong
Youre totally wrong
If you were worth all the worship
I wouldnt write you this song in the first place
Heres a small taste
Of all the things youve brought upon
Yourself because of the
Way you think the
Entire world is out to get you
So try to remember that we
Could never compare to the rest. So I Said

Is this what you wanted?
A friend less motivated
Tell me this is what you wanted
A friendless situation.
Is this what you wanted?
A friend less motivated
Tell me this is what you wanted
A friendless situation.
Because who needs enemies
When youve got friends like these

Im just passing time
And its complicating but captivating
Every little thing youve come to trust
And its just the thing that makes us what we are.
Im just passing time
And its complicating everything
And Im complicating everything because of the
Way you think the
Entire world is out to get you
So try to remember that we
Could never compare to the rest. So I Said

Is this what you wanted?
A friend less motivated
Tell me this is what you wanted
A friendless situation.
Is this what you wanted?
A friend less motivated
Tell me this is what you wanted
A friendless situation.
Because who needs enemies
When youve got friends like these

I just wanna save myself
I don't care about anyone else.
Bet you're gonna be just fine,
And I just might
Sweat it out, sweat it out.

'Cuz I'm not going anywhere
I've gotta get outta here
I've gotta get outta here
I've gotta get out.

I'm singled out
I couldn't be anymore related
When I'm sitting around
Conjuring up a stronger offense.

I'm watching out
Before myself, 'cuz this is all I have,
I should be runnin' around,
Sweating out hits

Ever since this is my last chance
To sweat for you (say it isn't true)
What's about time for me
And I gotta kick it
Kick it up, a little bit
A little bit.

'Cuz I'm not going anywhere
I've gotta get outta here
I've gotta get outta here
I've gotta get out. [x2]

I'm breakin' out
This couldn't be anymore related
So I'm runnin' around
Covering up some blanks to tell you

My luck's run out
Tonight I haven't tried
I should be runnin' around,
Sweating out hits

Ever since this is my last chance
To sweat for you (say it isn't true)
What's about time for me
And I gotta kick it
Kick it up, a little bit
A little bit.

'Cuz I'm not going anywhere
I've gotta get outta here
I've gotta get outta here
I've gotta get out. [x2]

I will sweat for you
If you really want me to
I will sweat for you
If you really want me to

'Cuz I'm not going anywhere
But I've gotta get outta here
I've gotta get outta here

I gotta get out (of here)
I gotta get out (of here)
I gotta get out
I gotta get out (I've gotta get outta here)
(I will sweat for you)
(I've gotta get outta here)
I've gotta get out
