"I Will Play My Game Beneath The Spin Light" lyrics
"I Will Play My Game Beneath The Spin Light"
The time has come for colds and overcoats
We're quiet on the ride
We're all just waiting to get home
Another week away, my greatest fear
I need the smell of summer
I need its noises in my ears
If looks could really kill
Then my profession would be staring
Know we do this cause we care
Not for the thrill
Collect calls to home
Tell them that I realize
That everyone who lives will someday die
And die alone
And we won't let you in
Though we're down and out
No we won't let you in
You win, you win, you win
I wrote more postcards than hooks
I read more maps than books
Feel like every chance to leave
Is another chance I should have took
Every minute is a mile
I've never felt so hollow
I'm an old abandoned church with broken pews
And empty aisles
My secrets for a buck
Watch me as I cut myself wide open
On this stage
Yes, I am paid to spill my guts
I won't see home till spring
Oh, I would kill for the Atlantic
But I am paid to make girls panic
While I sing
And we won't let you in
Though we're down and out
No we won't let you in
And we won't let you in
We don't want what isn't ours
We won't let you in
You win, you win, you win
And the coastline is quiet
While we're quietly losing control
And we're silent but sure
We invented the cure
That will wash out my memories of her
"The harpoon is loaded. The cage is lowered
The water is red."
Like you, like you
And we won't let you in
Though we're down and out
No we won't let you in
And we won't let you in
We don't want what isn't ours
We won't let you in
You win, you win, you win...

Saves The Day - "Freakish" As I'm talking
My words slip to the floor
And they crawl through your legs
Slide under the back door
Rendering me freakish and dazed
Well, here I am
Don't know how to say this
Only thing I know is...
Armor For Sleep - "Car Underwater" Believe the news, I'm gone for good.
Call off the search, no one will know that I'm down here
Believe the note I left for you
You can't turn back the clocks, you can't pull me up from here, so don't...
The Used - "All That I've Got" So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me
Off guard, red handed
Now I'm far from lonely
Asleep I still see you lying next to me
So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me, ahh
I need...
Death Cab For Cutie - "Crooked Teeth" It was one hundred degrees,
As we sat beneath
A willow tree,
Whose tears didn't care,
They just hung in the air,
And refused to fall, to fall.
And I knew I'd made a horrible call,
And now the state...
