Deadbeat Holiday Lyrics
And the cat’s caught in the dryer
Philosophy’s a liar when
Your home is your headstone
“icon” is the last chance for hope
your faith lied in the ditch that
you dug yourself in
nothing but hell to pay
when the lights are going down
there’s a vacant sign that’s hanging high
on a noose over you home
there’s a vacant sign that’s hanging high
but at least you’re not alone
Grudges comes back to haunt us
Your oldest allies are you long lost enemies
Grounded in a duplex to find that
You’re living on a landmine
Vacation hotspots is a cemetery drive
Nothing but hell to pay
When the lights are going down
there’s a vacant sign that’s hanging high
on a noose over you home
there’s a vacant sign that’s hanging high
but at least you’re not alone
Nothing but hell to pay when all you
Want to do is… not to…give up…

How good is that opening line?

"Celebrate your own decay" basically means, I think, that it's okay if you're going on the wrong track...it's possible to get back, and don't give up on yourself. It may be considered a very "pop" beat, but the message is more "punk" than punk itself...and i hate using labels

good song...but the lyrics here is missing a line: in the beginning after the line "icon is last chance for hope" right after its supposed to say "when theres no such thing as heros"

Is it just me, or does the beat of the chorus remind anyone of Nice Guys Finish Last, just slowed down a bit?
Yea
Yea

This is the best song off warning, and this song is awsome. Great lyrics.

Well it seems to be about suicide but i think the meaning is about being stuck in a dead end in life

This song is about, 'the ship is going down' and lets all have a good time on our way down. I mean 'Philosophy’s a liar when Your home is your headstone' says it all it's about releazing that one day we're all going to die and we only get so little time while we're here. I think it's about fuck all the pre madonnas and goodie goodies trying to look good and make everything last and stay the same forever, it's about likeing who you are and make the most of what you can on the ride down.

i think this song even though life may suck....live it up!!

i agree with quicksilver but i also think its sort of a redemption song for the band talking bout how drugs have effected their lives

This is a sad song if you realy listen to it, "theirs a vacant sign that's hangin high on a noose over your home".
