Drop like the needle
Today I felt the drain
I’ll climb back up to you
On ladders of the rain
Break them down, shake up their beliefs
I’ll show them, show them a believer
300,000 amps
And I’m your warm receiver
When they kill the lights
You’ll remain my conductor
And if they didn’t drain your life
I’ll become your conductor
Don’t cut the connection
Bleed in to black clouds
And I will lick them clean
Turn to a tourniquet
And cinch yourself to me
Strike down now, shake their frail beliefs
And make them new born believers
300,000 amps
And I’m your warm receiver
When they kill the lights
You’ll remain my conductor
And if they didn’t drain your life
I’ll become your conductor
When they kill the lights
You’ll remain my conductor
You’ll remain my conductor
You’ll remain my conductor
Heart Stops lyrics - AFI
Oh, my pretty precious stone
Just left me in ribbons
With my heart sliced carefully
You wear it like a cheerful bow
There's a light that you now adore
But the bringer is cast down
I have never been before
So unhappy in my whole life
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
You were my first faith, made of lies like all the others
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
I found my last light but it died like all the others (all the others)
Oh, my painful fatal flaw
May your cruelty find you
May the scars you left in me
Dig into you twice as deep
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
You were my first faith, made of lies like all the others
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
I found my last light but it died like all the others
I know you'll look away while I'm crying
I know you'll wear that bow with a smile
Everything I gave you, it was wasted
Love further down, adore that denial
I stopped feeling numb, now I have to be
Because I trusted you I cannot trust another
Heart stops beating, what was brutality?
You were my last light so I'll die like all the others
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
You were my first faith, made of lies like all the others, all the others
Just left me in ribbons
With my heart sliced carefully
You wear it like a cheerful bow
There's a light that you now adore
But the bringer is cast down
I have never been before
So unhappy in my whole life
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
You were my first faith, made of lies like all the others
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
I found my last light but it died like all the others (all the others)
Oh, my painful fatal flaw
May your cruelty find you
May the scars you left in me
Dig into you twice as deep
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
You were my first faith, made of lies like all the others
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
I found my last light but it died like all the others
I know you'll look away while I'm crying
I know you'll wear that bow with a smile
Everything I gave you, it was wasted
Love further down, adore that denial
I stopped feeling numb, now I have to be
Because I trusted you I cannot trust another
Heart stops beating, what was brutality?
You were my last light so I'll die like all the others
Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day
You were my first faith, made of lies like all the others, all the others
Rewind lyrics - AFI
Lie awake, keep your cold eyes closed
Feel it crawl upon your chest
Bear it's teeth and steal your breath
Stay awake as its creeping close
If you're brave enough you'll see
As it stares it looks a lot like me
It looks like me
Though there's no way I will materialize
Let the ghost that meets your eyes still haunt you, remind you
There's no way to apologize
Your selfish words must float denied like your crime
I float now. We rewind
Draw a line that cannot be crossed
Make a circle out of salt
Knowing it was all your fault
Hide inside, call your doting dogs
As their weak servility
Feeds your emptiness, remember me
In solitude you will sense me
Though there's no way I will materialize
Let the ghost that meets your eyes still haunt you, remind you
There's no way to apologize
Your selfish words must float denied like your crime
I float now. We rewind
Forever feel it as it's gnawing
Forever crawling, ever crawling
Never caring always smiling
Here to feed when you are falling
There's no way I will materialize
Let the ghost that meets your eyes still haunt you, remind you
There's no way, you can't apologize
Your selfish words must float denied like your crime
I float now. We rewind
We rewind
I float now, forever
You did this. We rewind
Feel it crawl upon your chest
Bear it's teeth and steal your breath
Stay awake as its creeping close
If you're brave enough you'll see
As it stares it looks a lot like me
It looks like me
Though there's no way I will materialize
Let the ghost that meets your eyes still haunt you, remind you
There's no way to apologize
Your selfish words must float denied like your crime
I float now. We rewind
Draw a line that cannot be crossed
Make a circle out of salt
Knowing it was all your fault
Hide inside, call your doting dogs
As their weak servility
Feeds your emptiness, remember me
In solitude you will sense me
Though there's no way I will materialize
Let the ghost that meets your eyes still haunt you, remind you
There's no way to apologize
Your selfish words must float denied like your crime
I float now. We rewind
Forever feel it as it's gnawing
Forever crawling, ever crawling
Never caring always smiling
Here to feed when you are falling
There's no way I will materialize
Let the ghost that meets your eyes still haunt you, remind you
There's no way, you can't apologize
Your selfish words must float denied like your crime
I float now. We rewind
We rewind
I float now, forever
You did this. We rewind
The Embrace lyrics - AFI
Watching it crumble
Might have eased the hurt
Feeling it disappear
Only made worse
Pulling it piece by piece
Slicing up ribbons could dismiss
To slowly disintegrate
Could have been the perfect gift
May you feel this, while you sleep
Push the poisonous thorns in you
May you feel this while you wake
Bear your poisonous thorns
Walk into traffic
Running with open knives
Searching for mercy here
That I'm too weak to find
To take my deepest breath
I walk into the raging sea
To drown out this emptiness
It's all you have left for me
May you feel this, while you sleep
Push the poisonous thorns in you
May you feel this while you wake
Bear your poisonous thorns
I hope you feel this
I hope that you can feel this
As it's fading the darkness shifts (the darkness shifts)
This may be the perfect gift
May you feel this, while you sleep
Push the poisonous thorns in you
May you feel this while you wake
Bear your poisonous thorns
May you feel this, may you feel this while you wake
May you feel this, may you feel this while you wake
Might have eased the hurt
Feeling it disappear
Only made worse
Pulling it piece by piece
Slicing up ribbons could dismiss
To slowly disintegrate
Could have been the perfect gift
May you feel this, while you sleep
Push the poisonous thorns in you
May you feel this while you wake
Bear your poisonous thorns
Walk into traffic
Running with open knives
Searching for mercy here
That I'm too weak to find
To take my deepest breath
I walk into the raging sea
To drown out this emptiness
It's all you have left for me
May you feel this, while you sleep
Push the poisonous thorns in you
May you feel this while you wake
Bear your poisonous thorns
I hope you feel this
I hope that you can feel this
As it's fading the darkness shifts (the darkness shifts)
This may be the perfect gift
May you feel this, while you sleep
Push the poisonous thorns in you
May you feel this while you wake
Bear your poisonous thorns
May you feel this, may you feel this while you wake
May you feel this, may you feel this while you wake
Wild lyrics - AFI
Every one of my words, not worth believing
Every promise I kept, kept you deceiving
Gave golden years that you erased. I split my heart and watched you take
Every drop of my soul and leave me bleeding
Yeah, you taught me this
True love wont' be remembered
My regret will last forever
Because I thought you'd never
Yeah, you brought me here
I was painfully true you were pretending
You told me this was heaven then you ascended
I gave you life, now pray for death, breathed into you, you stole my breath
You told me right from the start, we started ending
I believed in you
True love wont' be remembered
My regret will last forever
Because I thought you'd never
Yeah, you brought me here
Now I'm singing ashamed
That all my words are the same
Because I'm singing
Betrayed
Now I'm singing ashamed
That all my words are the same
Because I'm singing
Betrayed
Yeah, you brought me here
True love wont' be remembered
My regret will last forever
True love wont' be remembered
My regret will last forever
Because I thought you'd never
Every promise I kept, kept you deceiving
Gave golden years that you erased. I split my heart and watched you take
Every drop of my soul and leave me bleeding
Yeah, you taught me this
True love wont' be remembered
My regret will last forever
Because I thought you'd never
Yeah, you brought me here
I was painfully true you were pretending
You told me this was heaven then you ascended
I gave you life, now pray for death, breathed into you, you stole my breath
You told me right from the start, we started ending
I believed in you
True love wont' be remembered
My regret will last forever
Because I thought you'd never
Yeah, you brought me here
Now I'm singing ashamed
That all my words are the same
Because I'm singing
Betrayed
Now I'm singing ashamed
That all my words are the same
Because I'm singing
Betrayed
Yeah, you brought me here
True love wont' be remembered
My regret will last forever
True love wont' be remembered
My regret will last forever
Because I thought you'd never
Greater Than 84 lyrics - AFI
There's an open sky and an empty city
Where the rain falls of the night.
Upon precious flames, we once found so pretty
Our frail and only light.
Love is all that's left,
And I'm emotionless.
You won't read it in the papers
In this time.
Keep your hands clean
Just read my mind.
We're trapped between the nightmares,
And I fear
The future's here it's 1985,
It's 1985.
Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?
Oh...
All the emptiness overfills this city
So you'll be queen tonight.
As you overthrow looking pale and pretty
I welcome your requite.
They told us love can save,
So we prepared our graves.
You won't read it in the papers
In this time.
Keep your hands clean
Just read my mind.
We're trapped between the nightmares
And I fear
The future's here it's 1985,
It's 1985.
Can you read my mind?
Will you hold my hand as we count the hours?
The hours?
Will you hold my hand as we count down the hours?
The hours?
Standing beneath the meteor showers.
Oh!
You won't read it in the papers
In this time.
Keep your hands clean
Just read my mind.
We're trapped between the nightmares,
And I fear
The future's here it's 1985,
It's 1985.
Can you read my mind?
Where the rain falls of the night.
Upon precious flames, we once found so pretty
Our frail and only light.
Love is all that's left,
And I'm emotionless.
You won't read it in the papers
In this time.
Keep your hands clean
Just read my mind.
We're trapped between the nightmares,
And I fear
The future's here it's 1985,
It's 1985.
Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?
Oh...
All the emptiness overfills this city
So you'll be queen tonight.
As you overthrow looking pale and pretty
I welcome your requite.
They told us love can save,
So we prepared our graves.
You won't read it in the papers
In this time.
Keep your hands clean
Just read my mind.
We're trapped between the nightmares
And I fear
The future's here it's 1985,
It's 1985.
Can you read my mind?
Will you hold my hand as we count the hours?
The hours?
Will you hold my hand as we count down the hours?
The hours?
Standing beneath the meteor showers.
Oh!
You won't read it in the papers
In this time.
Keep your hands clean
Just read my mind.
We're trapped between the nightmares,
And I fear
The future's here it's 1985,
It's 1985.
Can you read my mind?
Anxious lyrics - AFI
Tear into silence, my ears begin to ring
Begin to ring in the new sound anxiously
Oh, I am anxious and aching, breathing the burning air
Caring for something that is not there
Knowing what's fated, begin my fatal flight
Flying obscenely into the light
But the light will evade me to bring down punishment
Punishing soundly it lets me live
Swing the serenade (I heard it swing)
Swing love down and find the saddest song
I heard you swing the promises (You'll watch me swing now)
Swing love now and choke what we've become
Black without blindness, my eyes begin to sting
As my lips part to poison, sweet poisoning
Oh god, I feel like I'm dying. I've found death finally
And it feels like heaven, I'll never reach
Swing the serenade (I heard it swing)
Swing love down and find the saddest song
I heard you swing the promises (You'll watch me swing now)
Swing love now and choke what we've become
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Turn it down. Drown it slowly
Is it off? I'm still listening
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Turn it down. Drown it slowly
Is it off? I'm still listening
Swing the serenade (I heard it swing)
Swing love down and find the saddest song
I heard you swing the promises (You'll watch me swing now)
Swing love now and choke what we've become
(I'll bite your lips though I know better than this)
(This is a death I cant resist)
Begin to ring in the new sound anxiously
Oh, I am anxious and aching, breathing the burning air
Caring for something that is not there
Knowing what's fated, begin my fatal flight
Flying obscenely into the light
But the light will evade me to bring down punishment
Punishing soundly it lets me live
Swing the serenade (I heard it swing)
Swing love down and find the saddest song
I heard you swing the promises (You'll watch me swing now)
Swing love now and choke what we've become
Black without blindness, my eyes begin to sting
As my lips part to poison, sweet poisoning
Oh god, I feel like I'm dying. I've found death finally
And it feels like heaven, I'll never reach
Swing the serenade (I heard it swing)
Swing love down and find the saddest song
I heard you swing the promises (You'll watch me swing now)
Swing love now and choke what we've become
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Turn it down. Drown it slowly
Is it off? I'm still listening
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Swinging now, will you watch me?
Turn it down. Drown it slowly
Is it off? I'm still listening
Swing the serenade (I heard it swing)
Swing love down and find the saddest song
I heard you swing the promises (You'll watch me swing now)
Swing love now and choke what we've become
(I'll bite your lips though I know better than this)
(This is a death I cant resist)
The Face Beneath The Waves lyrics - AFI
Someone said they saw me fall apart
Part of me collected and destroyed
Tell me what it's like to hold a heart
When it shatters
Someone said that they ran into her
Asked if there was any word of me
And she swore that everything we were
Never mattered
(There is a face beneath the waves)
I will return again
I will return to you
I will return again
I am part of you
I am
Are you somewhere listening to me?
Have these whispers finally found the cracks?
White walls won't forever keep these screams
They will shatter
Secretly, you know that I'm still here
While you're being held you're so alone
For you killed the only one who cared
Let it shatter.
(There is a voice within the walls)
I will return again
I will return to you
I will return again
I am part of you
I am
What do you do
When my soul invites you?
Oh, you'll see me again
You know this will never end
What do you do
When your heart reminds you?
Oh, you'll put me to death
But I will return again
I will return again
I will return to you
I will return again
I am part of you
I will be with you again, with you again
I am
Part of me collected and destroyed
Tell me what it's like to hold a heart
When it shatters
Someone said that they ran into her
Asked if there was any word of me
And she swore that everything we were
Never mattered
(There is a face beneath the waves)
I will return again
I will return to you
I will return again
I am part of you
I am
Are you somewhere listening to me?
Have these whispers finally found the cracks?
White walls won't forever keep these screams
They will shatter
Secretly, you know that I'm still here
While you're being held you're so alone
For you killed the only one who cared
Let it shatter.
(There is a voice within the walls)
I will return again
I will return to you
I will return again
I am part of you
I am
What do you do
When my soul invites you?
Oh, you'll see me again
You know this will never end
What do you do
When your heart reminds you?
Oh, you'll put me to death
But I will return again
I will return again
I will return to you
I will return again
I am part of you
I will be with you again, with you again
I am
Carcinogen Crush lyrics - AFI
Speechless
Read the words between your lines
In isolation
Silence separates of what design?
I heard you speak
Words I know you didn't write
But I believe you, believe them
'Cause you spoke them again in my dreams last night
I swear to you I'm not the one
I swear so I'll become
Your only desire
Take a bow
You've performed exquisitely
Though the millions scream
I know you'll see
Each subtlety's understood by me
I
I would be as devout
As the high school sweetheart
That I never had, I s-s-s-s-s-s-swear!
I swear to you I'm not the one
I swear so I'll become
Your only
So if you are confined to me
I swear that you will be
So lonely (dreaming)
Your airs of grace, your airs of grace will fill me
Your airs of grace, your airs of grace will fill me
Your airs of grace, your airs of grace will fill me
Your airs of grace, your airs of grace just killed me
Oh!
I swear to you, I'm not the one
I swear so I'll become
Your only
So if you are confined to me
I swear you will be
So lonely (dream-like)
Dream-like
Dream-like
Read the words between your lines
In isolation
Silence separates of what design?
I heard you speak
Words I know you didn't write
But I believe you, believe them
'Cause you spoke them again in my dreams last night
I swear to you I'm not the one
I swear so I'll become
Your only desire
Take a bow
You've performed exquisitely
Though the millions scream
I know you'll see
Each subtlety's understood by me
I
I would be as devout
As the high school sweetheart
That I never had, I s-s-s-s-s-s-swear!
I swear to you I'm not the one
I swear so I'll become
Your only
So if you are confined to me
I swear that you will be
So lonely (dreaming)
Your airs of grace, your airs of grace will fill me
Your airs of grace, your airs of grace will fill me
Your airs of grace, your airs of grace will fill me
Your airs of grace, your airs of grace just killed me
Oh!
I swear to you, I'm not the one
I swear so I'll become
Your only
So if you are confined to me
I swear you will be
So lonely (dream-like)
Dream-like
Dream-like
Fallen Like The Sky lyrics - AFI
Flee today with me and we can hide
Until they want you
Where the strange creatures play
Mystic games of strength. Disassociate.
Seal my fate, seal my, seal your
Until they eat their own young
This is a lonely war tonight and I'm forsaken
Are you a lonely one, too? OH
This is a lonely war tonight, with soldiers breaking
They were the lonely once too.
Leave your stain and laugh. My wounds innate.
Leave like they all do.
We the strange creatures play
Endless games of hate, we the reprobate
Seal our fate, seal our, seal your
Till we eat our own young
This is a lonely war tonight and I'm forsaken
Are you a lonely one, too? OH
This is a lonely war tonight, with soldiers breaking
They were the lonely once, too
This is a lonely war tonight and I'm forsaken
Are you a lonely one, too? OH
This is a lonely war tonight, with soldiers breaking
They were the lonely ones, too
This is a lonely war tonight and I'm forsaken
Are you a lonely one, too?
Are you a lonely one, too? with soldiers breaking
Are you a lonely one, too?
Until they want you
Where the strange creatures play
Mystic games of strength. Disassociate.
Seal my fate, seal my, seal your
Until they eat their own young
This is a lonely war tonight and I'm forsaken
Are you a lonely one, too? OH
This is a lonely war tonight, with soldiers breaking
They were the lonely once too.
Leave your stain and laugh. My wounds innate.
Leave like they all do.
We the strange creatures play
Endless games of hate, we the reprobate
Seal our fate, seal our, seal your
Till we eat our own young
This is a lonely war tonight and I'm forsaken
Are you a lonely one, too? OH
This is a lonely war tonight, with soldiers breaking
They were the lonely once, too
This is a lonely war tonight and I'm forsaken
Are you a lonely one, too? OH
This is a lonely war tonight, with soldiers breaking
They were the lonely ones, too
This is a lonely war tonight and I'm forsaken
Are you a lonely one, too?
Are you a lonely one, too? with soldiers breaking
Are you a lonely one, too?
The View From Here lyrics - AFI
So softly spoke the sky, tonight the city dies
(You'll be safe alone)
And then he did confide, black flowers blooming lies
(You'll be safe alone)
So softly I returned, a bow for all I've learned
(You'll be safe alone)
I hung myself up high, where I watched it burn
I'm still alone
I'm still alone
(You'll be safe alone)
I'm still alone
I know, this is, what you wanted
I'd go, just go away
I know, your heart, is my haunted
This ghost will fade away
(So softly spoke the sky, tonight the city dies)
I'm still alone
I'm still alone
(You'll be safe alone)
I'm still alone
(You'll be safe alone)
And then he did confide, black flowers blooming lies
(You'll be safe alone)
So softly I returned, a bow for all I've learned
(You'll be safe alone)
I hung myself up high, where I watched it burn
I'm still alone
I'm still alone
(You'll be safe alone)
I'm still alone
I know, this is, what you wanted
I'd go, just go away
I know, your heart, is my haunted
This ghost will fade away
(So softly spoke the sky, tonight the city dies)
I'm still alone
I'm still alone
(You'll be safe alone)
I'm still alone

Oh
I saw you. Angels came to light your path.
I heard you keep their wings pressed under glass.
Now am I so enthralled that I might die?
I saw you, sweetly smile, and say "do try".
(anything)
I'd tear out my eyes for you, my dear
(anything)
To see everything that you do.
I saw you so bereft so pale and weak
When I looked through
You and I declined to speak.
I won't say
(anything)
I'd tear out my eyes for you, my dear
(anything)
To see everything that you do. I'd do
(anything)
I'll tear out my soul for you, my dear. oh my dear

To feel everything as you do. I do
Anything

Leave me to grieve that nothing's lost. nothing's lost

Beautiful Thieves - afi lyrics
My dear there is no danger
Can't you see they turn blind eyes
To we swift and spotlight strangers?
Oh before the rush is over
We will be revered again
While the victims still recover
Oh!
If we run this light
Take a little life
No one will care at all
Oh!
We can burn it and leave
For we are the beautiful Thieves
No one suspects at all
No one suspects
Ah
Oh,
Are we running toward death?
I have met him times before
He adores us like the rest
Oh even if we're discovered
Just be sure to wear your best
We will surely make the covers
Oh!
If we run this light
Take a little life
No one will care at all
Oh!
We can burn it and leave
For we are the beautiful thieves
No one suspects at all
No one suspects
Who would run for cover?
Who would run from us?
Who would run for cover?
Who would run from us?
Oh!
If we run this light
Take a little life
No one will care at all
Oh!
We can burn it and leave
For we are the beautiful thieves

No one suspects at all
No one suspects at all
If we run this light
Take a little life
No one will care at all
Oh!
We can burn it and leave
For we are the beautiful thieves
No one suspects at all
No one suspects
