Dead To The World Lyrics
So, so what happens in your room
When you're all alone with me at home
Going crazy over you?
Behind these bedroom walls
Every night I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
Until my lungs are bleeding
Tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
And that you're not in love
Take this stupid heart
(Take this stupid heart)
I know it's all you ever wanted me for
(All you wanted me for)
And I hope you keep it close
So everyone knows that it's all because of you
That I'm dead to the world
I hate, hate the way you look at me
Where's the pills that cure that thing that you call
'Sweeping me off my feet'?
It's girls like you that keep open graves for boys like me
That keep themselves locked up for days
Behind these bedroom walls
Every night I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
Until my lungs are bleeding
Tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
And that you're not in love
Take this stupid heart
(Take this stupid heart)
I know it's all you ever wanted me for
(All you wanted me for)
And I hope you keep it close
So everyone knows that it's all because of you
That I'm dead to the world
I won't wait, I won't wait, I won't wait
I won't wait for you to make me stop
Behind these bedroom walls
Every night I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
Until my lungs are bleeding
Tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
And that you're not in love
Take this stupid heart
(Take this stupid heart)
I know it's all you ever wanted me for
(All you wanted me for)
And I hope you keep it close
So everyone knows that it's all because of you
That I'm dead to the world (x2)
When you're all alone with me at home
Going crazy over you?
Every night I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
Until my lungs are bleeding
Tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
And that you're not in love
(Take this stupid heart)
I know it's all you ever wanted me for
(All you wanted me for)
And I hope you keep it close
So everyone knows that it's all because of you
That I'm dead to the world
Where's the pills that cure that thing that you call
'Sweeping me off my feet'?
It's girls like you that keep open graves for boys like me
That keep themselves locked up for days
Every night I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
Until my lungs are bleeding
Tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
And that you're not in love
(Take this stupid heart)
I know it's all you ever wanted me for
(All you wanted me for)
And I hope you keep it close
So everyone knows that it's all because of you
That I'm dead to the world
I won't wait for you to make me stop
Every night I sing along with all her favorite songs
I sing until my voice is gone
Until my lungs are bleeding
Tell me you don't miss these brown eyes
And that you're not in love
(Take this stupid heart)
I know it's all you ever wanted me for
(All you wanted me for)
And I hope you keep it close
So everyone knows that it's all because of you
That I'm dead to the world (x2)

it was so amazing i went to one of there shows a while back and they played this song and jamison stopped singing and the whole crowd finished up the song .... amazing
aw. this song only has one comment? i love the line "tell me you don't miss these brown eyes and that you're not in love" god. i get this great visual image too great thats the point of music from an artist aspect though, to bring up emotions and memories for other people jamisonparker did a great job with this song.
i really love the part where they say
"I hate hate the way you look at me where's the pills for that thing that you call "sweepin' me off my feet" it's girls like you that keep open graves for boys like me that keep themselves locked up for days."
I get the impression that this song is about a breakup that basically left him "dead to the world", because he's locked up in his room thinking about what could have/should have been.
i think so too
i dont understand how girls can be into JamisonParker when its us guys that really connect to the lyrics
but as Jamison says in his new song "Paper Flowers Never Die:" "Nothing real should make sense anyway"
anybody can connect to lyrics that are this deep and accurate.
To me, this song means that this girl and him had an awful breakup and he's still crazy about her and he wants her to know it. Also he's trying to make her feel guilty for it becasue he knows she does everything for superficial reasons (hence the lyric "take this stupid heart, I know it's all you wanted me for"
