The Choke Lyrics
Don't leave yet
it's still early and I haven't even said a word
and I'm hoping that I might upset you by saying what I want to
'cause it's not like you don't know who I've fallen for
but it's in my head and that's where you can't see it
and I thought that maybe if I had to bite the tips of my fingers I could stumble over words
and tell you just how far before I hit the ground
and I'm the type to think of all the wrong things to say
and I will shut myself up and I'll never come out-
I'll close all my doors and only show you the black spots where my eyes once were-
I can say this-
I can collect myself deep down and then come out punching
and I'll scream out loud.

this is the punkiest song saves the day has... i like it.
i think this is a song about how he has trouble telling someone how he feels. he knows he has feelings for the person, but keeps them in his head because he can't tell her, at the end of the song hes telling himself that he can tell her, and that he will. i dunno how to explain but this is like just how i feel sometimes, its one of my favourite saves the day song
This is the very first Saves The Day song I heard, and this song is what made what made me like Saves The Day, so...
what freakish said. the song's pretty self explanatory and straight forward, he can't bring himself to tell the girl what he feels about her. and i guess it drives him crazy keeping it to himself, not being able to let it out.
yes the song is self explanitory but i would like to point out how phat the rhythm guitar is to this song. I learned to respect power chords much more because of Saves the day... and this song in particular. if youre a guitar player... just learn this song and sing to it... it'll make your day.
this song is the jam......playin it on the guitar is fun too , your right.....its all over the place - peace-
I can relate to this song so much, its exactly how I feel..its defintly a great song.
Saves the Day is just the best ever...I love them. They're awesome.
this is the first saves the day song i heard. i can relate to it sooo much. like you have feelings for that person but it's in your head and you dont know how to tell them. like shattered said, it just drives you crazy not being able to let it out.
this song doesnt need a explaination
