"My Life For Hire" lyrics
"My Life For Hire"
Somebody give me a sign,
That everything's going as planned,
And then everything falls away,
Into the darkness of this shallow place.
The detail is striking,
The room's cold and frightening,
You'll kick and you'll scream,
You'll try everything to survive,
But you should know your fate by now.
They told me (they told me)
How I should be,
But I broke the mold somehow!
It's too late, too late.
You keep trying to resolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done to me!
You, you know you gotta assert yourself,
Leave what you need for now,
It's not the time or place you're searching for.
All I can give them's my worst of intentions.
You're nothing to me and everyone can see that
Your life's a lie, there's nowhere left to hide.
They told me (they told me)
How I should be,
But I broke the mold somehow!
It's too late, too late.
You keep trying to resolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done
It's too late, too late.
You keep trying to resolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done to me!
Watch your back, you'll lose yourself!
This is a battleground!
When will they know,
Your life's a lie.
It's too late, too late.
You keep trying to resolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done
It's too late, too late.
You keep trying to resolve the past right now,
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done
They told me (they told me)
How I should be,
But I broke the mold somehow!

Yellowcard - "Way Away" I think I'm breaking out
I'm gonna leave you now
There's nothing for me here, it's all the same
And even though I know
That everything might go
Go downhill from here, I'm not afraid
Way away away...
Anberlin - "Paperthin Hymn" When your only friends are hotel rooms
Hands are distant lullabies
If I could turn around I would tonight
These roads never seemed so long

Leaving me suddenly...
Of Mice & Men - "Second & Sebring" I believe it's time for me
To be famous and out of place.
I believe it's time for me
To move forward when I break through.
When I break through.

When I break through.

Funeral For A Friend - "Roses For The Dead" Just to say we're sorry,
For the black eyes and bleeding lips.
And it's hard to forget
How many lies we've told.
Or how old we'd grow,
Before I said goodbye.
So let's scrape our knees on the...

Traded in his misery for the lonely life of the road
The years were cruel to him
No, he won't let them go
Lays awake tryna' find the man inside to pack his...
