One Hundred Stories Lyrics
You're in the next room sleeping and I'm shouting out a song for you
I shouldn't wake you over the furnace, but I should swear to someone you'd have loved every note
So dream a good one tonight
I'll listen to the bad ones when they come
Get up in my ear 'till I hear every word
Every turn of your tongue, I will tighten my grip
No one could tell even if I fell 100 stories straight down, down, down
No one could tell even if I fell 100 stories down
I was getting bored with hurting myself
If you fall down enough, well soon enough, you will find hell
It can't be as… as pretty as we hoped it would be
It's not even warm here, not even ten degrees
This bed is too big to sleep in, and I'm dying just to feel you breathe
You couldn't see across the ocean, but I was turning over 'till the vampires sleep
So dream a good one tonight
I'll listen to the bad ones when they come
Get up in my ear 'till I hear every word
Every turn of your tongue, I will tighten my grip
No one could tell even if I fell 100 stories straight down, down, down
No one could tell even if I fell 100 stories down
I was getting bored with hurting myself
If you fall down enough, well soon enough, you will find hell
It can't be as… as pretty as we hoped it would be
It's not even warm here, not even ten degrees
Dream a good one tonight
Dream a good one tonight
Dream a good one tonight
Dream a good one tonight
I was getting bored with hurting myself
So dream a good one tonight
I was getting bored with hurting myself
So dream a good one tonight
I was getting bored with hurting myself
So dream a good one tonight
I was getting bored with hurting myself
I shouldn't wake you over the furnace, but I should swear to someone you'd have loved every note
So dream a good one tonight
I'll listen to the bad ones when they come
Get up in my ear 'till I hear every word
Every turn of your tongue, I will tighten my grip
No one could tell even if I fell 100 stories straight down, down, down
No one could tell even if I fell 100 stories down
If you fall down enough, well soon enough, you will find hell
It can't be as… as pretty as we hoped it would be
It's not even warm here, not even ten degrees
You couldn't see across the ocean, but I was turning over 'till the vampires sleep
So dream a good one tonight
I'll listen to the bad ones when they come
Get up in my ear 'till I hear every word
Every turn of your tongue, I will tighten my grip
No one could tell even if I fell 100 stories straight down, down, down
No one could tell even if I fell 100 stories down
If you fall down enough, well soon enough, you will find hell
It can't be as… as pretty as we hoped it would be
It's not even warm here, not even ten degrees
Dream a good one tonight
Dream a good one tonight
Dream a good one tonight
So dream a good one tonight
I was getting bored with hurting myself
So dream a good one tonight
I was getting bored with hurting myself
So dream a good one tonight
I was getting bored with hurting myself

a girl he cares a lot for is being hurt, and it's happening right in front of his face, but the only way he can explain to her how he feels without coming on too strong...so the only time he can tell her how he feels is when she's sleeping and the words hit her ears, but don't really listen (ie the references to the bed; "you're in the next room sleeping and I'm shouting out a song for you", "this bed is too big to sleep in, and I'm dying just to feel you breathe"). when he talks about being bored with hurt himself and finding hell, he's basically saying that he's waited too long to tell her how he feels, and he's in hell, and the only way to get out of it is to open up. but basically the bedroom and the dreaming is all metaphorical and in for interpretation "so dream a good one tonight, I'll listen to the bad ones when they come. get up in my ear till I hear every word." that basically is him saying that he only wants the best for her, but if she does fall into a rut, he'll be there regardless of the situation, and she doesn't have to worry about him leaving.
man this is my best friends song.... i didnt like it too much til we were on the way to the concert april 24 and we played it like 100 times... and then they played it that night .... i have a d/led version that i like better than the cd version...
"this bed is too big to sleep in, and Im dying just to feel you breath" ... thats one of my fravorite lines in the song, becuase who hasnt been there before?
