"Letterbomb" lyrics
"Letterbomb"
"Nobody likes you
Everyone left you
They're all out without you having fun."
Where have all the bastards gone?
The underbelly stacks up ten high
The dummy failed the crash test
Collecting unemployment checks
A flunky only along for the ride
Where have all the riots gone
As the city's motto gets pulverized?
What's in love is now in debt
On your birth certificate
So strike the fucking match to light this fuse!
The town bishop is an extortionist
And he don't even know that you exist
Standing still when it's do or die
You better run for your fucking life
It's not over 'til you're underground
It's not over before it's too late
This city's burnin'
It's not my burden
It's not over before it's too late
There's nothing left to analyze
Where will all the martyrs go when the virus cures itself?
And where will we all go when it's too late?
And don't look back
You're not the Jesus of Suburbia
The St. Jimmy is a figment of
Your father's rage and your mother's love
Made me the idiot America
It's not over 'til you're underground
It's not over before it's too late
This city's burnin'
It's not my burden
It's not over before it's too late
Well, she said, "I can't take this place
I'm leaving it behind."
Well, she said, "I can't take this town
I'm leaving you tonight."

All Time Low - "Weightless" Manage me, I'm a mess
Turn a page, I'm a book
Half unread
I wanna be laughed at
Laughed with, just because
I wanna feel weightless
And that should be enough
But I'm stuck in this fucking rut...
The Longshot - "Love Is For Losers" I'm riding shotgun
In a car that's broken down
Nowhere to run in this city's like a ghost town
And I'm feeling like a stranger
And I'm stranded in the dark
Hey kid, love is for losers now
Alright...

Social Distortion - "Ring Of Fire" Love is a burning thing
And it makes a fiery ring
Bound by a wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire I fell into a burnin' ring of fire

And the flames went higher
