No Brakes Lyrics
No brakes this time, I slit the line
But if you want me, it’s cool, you can take me for a fool
I could slow down if you want me to
But just for you…
Carry me home, put me to bed
Leave me alone, it’s all in my head
Out of my hands, over the wheel
My only chance, my only appeal
What if you’re here to save me from this?
If I disappear will I be missed?
I never know what I should do
Can I leave it up to you?
No brakes, it’s true--no brakes, just you
Something to move me instead
Of this Rolodex in my head
I never meant anything I said
When I see red, I see red, I see red…
(CHORUS)
Can I leave it up to you?
Can I leave it up to you?
Can I leave it up to you?
But if you want me, it’s cool, you can take me for a fool
I could slow down if you want me to
But just for you…
Leave me alone, it’s all in my head
Out of my hands, over the wheel
My only chance, my only appeal
What if you’re here to save me from this?
If I disappear will I be missed?
I never know what I should do
Can I leave it up to you?
Something to move me instead
Of this Rolodex in my head
I never meant anything I said
When I see red, I see red, I see red…
Can I leave it up to you?
Can I leave it up to you?

It's like when you are into someone so much that you finally don't even care that you make yourself vulnerable to being hurt. Leave it up to you - Letting her know how you feel even when they might not be into it.
Is it a crush?
aww first comment! cool cool song! im listing to it now on the bravery website.. i think this song is about questioning yourself or someone you love 'if i disappear will i be missed?'
no wait i think this song is about a relationship ending and desperately wanting to get back with that person and saying things like i never meant anything i said..the more i read the lyrics the more meanings this song has...so im more than likly to be wrong
Sounds like The Offspring song No Brakes
I thought this song sounded slightly reminiscent of Pulp. Like an American Pulp or something. I never thought The Bravery were any good, but I heard this song and I thought it was brilliant.
This is my favourite bravery song they are are so good! The singer Sam said this songs about wishing someone else could sort out all the stuff going on in ur head so u wouldnt have to worry and make decisions urself! its brilliant :-)
this is my fav bravery song 2!! its quite upbeat 4 depressing lyrics: If I disappear will I be missed?....they r totally awesome!!!!!
whne i just wanna chill out man i put this on and in an instant im out, im asleep and dream good you know.soothing so when i skateboard no frustration. awesome album to listen to on the road as well.
i think this song is about starting a new relashinship with somone and not wanting to move to fast and scare them away so u want them to controll how fast things go because your really not to shure about the whole thing
abstract_dam - go away.
the lyrics to this song are immense. definately about a new relationship and not wanting to move too fast into anything.. wanting the other person to make decisions for you so you dont have to worry and stuff.
lush!
