Shark Attack Lyrics
I spent the last year
Paying a stranger to listen
To childhood thoughts
About the love i am missing
I'd fallen for one of the oldest tricks in the book
The hooks were baited up with fear
Because i wasn't thinking clear
Just save yourself
Cause it's to late for me
Just save yourself
Cause i've lost everything
Lying on the couch
Spilling all of my guts out
And walking out with nothing
But a head full of self doubt
I take back every good thing
I ever said
Cause it was all so meaningless
It didn't help clean up my mess
Just save yourself
Cause it's to late for me
Just save yourself
Cause i've lost everything
Now i see
You ripped me open, Ripped me up
Ive spent the last full year of my life
Asking the questions just to find out it was all a lie
Just save yourself
Cause it's to late for me
Just save yourself
Cause i've lost everything
Now I See
Now I See
Paying a stranger to listen
To childhood thoughts
About the love i am missing
I'd fallen for one of the oldest tricks in the book
The hooks were baited up with fear
Because i wasn't thinking clear
Cause it's to late for me
Just save yourself
Cause i've lost everything
Spilling all of my guts out
And walking out with nothing
But a head full of self doubt
I take back every good thing
I ever said
Cause it was all so meaningless
It didn't help clean up my mess
Cause it's to late for me
Just save yourself
Cause i've lost everything
You ripped me open, Ripped me up
Asking the questions just to find out it was all a lie
Cause it's to late for me
Just save yourself
Cause i've lost everything
Now I See

It's (I think anyway) obviously about Buddy going to see a psychologist during his crisis of faith and realising it's a waste of time.
I'm waiting for the album.
But I don't really like the lyrics of this song.
However, the clip on Vagrant's site sounds awesome, so I have hope yet.
These lyrics are wrong. Here are the corrected lyrics. =]
I spent the last year paying a stranger to listen, to childhood thoughts about the love I am missing.
I've fallen for one of betrayal, Distraced and the book holds.
We made it out of here. (Cause we made it out of here) Cause I watched it dimly clear.
(So save yourself) Cause it's too late for me. (Just save yourself) Cause I lost everything.
Lying on the couch and spilling all of my guts out. Walking out with nothing but a head full of self doubt.
I take back every good thing that I ever said to you.
It was all so meaningless. (Cause it was all so meaningless) It didn't help clean up my mess.
(Just save yourself) Cause it's too late for me. (Just save yourself) Cause I lost everything.
Now I See (You rip me open, rip me up) Now I See (You rip me open, rip me up)
I spent the last full year of my life, Lost in the question, searched to find out, it was all a lie.
(Just save yourself) Cause it's too late for me. (Just save yourself) Cause I lost everything.
Now I See (Now I See)
You are all mistaken. I think it is:
Senses Fail - Shark Attack
I spent the last year paying a stranger to listen To childhood thoughts about the love I was missing I've fallen for one of the oldest tricks in the book The hooks were baited I was speared Because I wasn't thinking clear
Chorus: To save yourself Because it's too late for me To save yourself Because I've lost everything
Lying on the couch spilling all of my guts out walking out with nothing but a head full of self doubt I take back every good thing that I ever said to you It was all so meaningless, it didn't help clean up my mess
Chorus
Now I see, you ripped me open, ripped me up Now I see, you ripped me open, ripped me up I spent the last four years of my life I was scared, the quest, the search to find out it was all a lie
Chorus
Now I see, now I see
This song (Like the rest on the album) ties into the theme of "still searching". Buddy is trying to get some answers for his life and his childhood, and in the end realizes a shrink can't do anything for him but make money off his agony.
Your all wrong the correct lyrics are:
I spent the last year Paying a stranger to listen To childhood thoughts About the love i am missing I'd fallen for one of the oldest tricks in the book The hooks were baited up with fear Because i wasn't thinking clear
Just save yourself Cause it's to late for me Just save yourself Cause i've lost everything
Lying on the couch Spilling all of my guts out And walking out with nothing But a head full of self doubt I take back every good thing I ever said Cause it was all so meaningless It didn't help clean up my mess
Just save yourself Cause it's to late for me Just save yourself Cause i've lost everything
Now i see You ripped me open, Ripped me up
Ive spent the last full year of my life Asking the questions just to find out it was all a lie
Just save yourself Cause it's to late for me Just save yourself Cause i've lost everything
Now I See Now I See
~Idk wat ur talkin bout Bnrocks i think this song has allot of meaning
~if u got thoe bonus DVD with the album he even explains how much more meaning he has put into this album than their first.
i dont get how you can say this has no meaning its so obvious hes going to a pshycitrist(uhhhh sp!?!#?^#&) yeah well its pretty obvious and i think hes talking about how he wasted his time with the uh talking doctor thing.. idk it just seems obvious to me..
This song's definitely about depression. He wants everyone to just forget about him because he thinks he's become worthless and it's all too late for him. It's basically about how he's lost all hope. He went to a therapist but it didn't help him. The whole album tells the story of this guy who's life is just spiraling downward and who kills himself in the end (All The Best Cowboys Have Daddy Issues (He's jumping from a building)/Negative Space (He's Falling down)/The Priest And The Matador (He's lying on the ground and dying)).
Ive spent the last full year of my life Asking the questions just to find out it was all a lie
this sounds right to me.
