I Lied My Face Off Lyrics
well, it's not fair, it's not even close.
you tied me down,
where i'm forced to watch as you poke holes in every part of me
containing something secretly.
something sacred to me.
i lied my face off when i said that i would be okay,
it's never fine when you go away.
these cuts run deep, these scars are permanent, and always on display.
this makes things difficult for me.
it's not fair, it's not even close.
you fed me the sun,
burned me up inside and watched me choke on everything we did.
on everything we lived.
let's see if i can live again.
i lied my face off when i said that i would be okay,
it's never fine when you go away.
these cuts run deep, these scars are permanent, and always on display.
this makes things difficult for me.
head like an empty, sterile room.
somehow i made a mess.
like watching newborn babies crack from work-related stress.
head like an empty sterile room.
somehow i made a mess.
like watching newborn babies crack from work-related stress.
i'm bad luck, can't fuck got no reflection today.
maybe i'll stay down next time i get hit by a train.

yea awsome song. but i wouldnt consider them emo. i meen the get up kids. thats emo. this is punk. 3 man punk the way it should be. but whats in a name. ur very lucky u havnt had to deel with feeling like crap. i have. for a while and their lyrics help alot. i love all the things about drinking cause i'm a border line alcohilic my self. lol. not really but still shouldnt drink half as much as i should. good to see them in the warped tours line up this year.
This is a brilliant song about, well, a breakup like just about every song by Alkaline Trio. The lyrics of their songs are just... quite possibly the ebst in emo, but then again it's a good genre. I mean, come on, "like watching newborn babies crack from work related stress", that's BRILLIANT!
I'd want to listen to this song at a point where I felt like crap. Thankfully that hasn't really happened yet.
alkaline trio rocks. their lyrics get to me. "its never fine when you go away." very meaningful and very true.
Ehh... I would consider this emo but you may be right. After all most AT songs rock pretty hard and emo is usually melancholy.
Punk? you've got to be kidding me, what has the media and society done to PUNK. blahhhhhh, punk is political not emotional like this. I'd consider alkaline Emo over Punk any day. mm and I <3 this song
yeah but what is considered punk and emo these days? its alla bout the screamo tho. but i like this band some.
that's what was hinted at in part of my post.
i know you were but i was kinda replying more to the others :)
you have to love this
"these cuts run deep, these scars are permanent, and always on display." This is what I listened to [along with NIN's "hurt" -hence the username-] when I cut and was suicidal. I felt like everyone was leaving and everything was worthless.. and all efforts to be happy were futile.
"head like an empty sterile room. somehow i made a mess." hehe... makes me think of the good ol' prozac days.
