Fall Children - afi lyrics
As the cries start to penetrate still air, this day we celebrate.
The wait now ends.
From four corners smoke plums into reddened sky.
In the face of latern light, my destiny flies.
This day so hallowed, from here to forever its will I will follow.
Tonight will come to life.
Deadened branches stirred by whispers in the wind.
Fall children fill the streets at dusk, at last, it all will begin.
The wait now ends.
From four corners smoke plums into reddened sky.
In the face of latern light, my destiny flies.
This day so hallowed, from here to forever its will I will follow.
Tonight will come to life.
Deadened branches stirred by whispers in the wind.
Fall children fill the streets at dusk, at last, it all will begin.
The Boy Who Destroyed The World - afi lyrics
Once there was boy who had vibrant glow, but as it goes, someone took it from him.
One day through the rain I heard him meekly moan, he said
"Will you wrap your arms around me as I'm falling?"
Remember when Remember when Remember when we were all so beautiful? Never
Again Never Again But since then we've lost our glow.
They said it hurt their eyes but he would never know that they were filled with
regret as their own dissipated.
He said, "I now feel more desperately alone, even though they wrapped their
arms around me as I'd fallen."
Remember when Remember when Remember when we were all so beautiful? Never
Again Never Again But since then we've lost our glow.
Remember when Remember when Remember when we were all so beautiful? Never
Again Never Again But since then we've lost our glow.
They said it hurt their eyes, but he would never know that they were claiming
regret as their own...
their own dissipated.
One day through the rain I heard him meekly moan, he said
"Will you wrap your arms around me as I'm falling?"
Remember when Remember when Remember when we were all so beautiful? Never
Again Never Again But since then we've lost our glow.
They said it hurt their eyes but he would never know that they were filled with
regret as their own dissipated.
He said, "I now feel more desperately alone, even though they wrapped their
arms around me as I'd fallen."
Remember when Remember when Remember when we were all so beautiful? Never
Again Never Again But since then we've lost our glow.
Remember when Remember when Remember when we were all so beautiful? Never
Again Never Again But since then we've lost our glow.
They said it hurt their eyes, but he would never know that they were claiming

Halloween - afi lyrics
[The Misfits Cover Song]
Bonfires burning bright
Pumpkin faces in the night
I remember halloween
Dead Cats hanging from poles
Little Dead are out in droves
I remember Halloween
Brown Leafed Vertigo
Where skeletal life is known
I remember Halloween
This day anything goes
Burning bodies hanging from poles
I remember Halloween
Halloweeeeen
Halloweeeeen
Halloweeeeen
Halloween!
Candy apples and razor blades
Little dead are soon in graves
I remember Halloween
This day anything goes
Burning bodies hanging from poles
I remember Halloween
Bonfires burning bright
Pumpkin faces in the night
I remember halloween
Dead Cats hanging from poles
Little Dead are out in droves
I remember Halloween
Brown Leafed Vertigo
Where skeletal life is known
I remember Halloween
This day anything goes
Burning bodies hanging from poles
I remember Halloween
Halloweeeeen
Halloweeeeen
Halloweeeeen

Candy apples and razor blades
Little dead are soon in graves

Totalimmortal - afi lyrics
Hope unknown. Sometimes just waking is surreal.
I walk right through the nameless ones.
I know that hope's unknown.
Sometimes the water feels so real.
As I walk through it fills my lungs, my god, I'm drowning.
This day never seems to end.
This pain, never.
The rage I can not let go.
I hear them calling my name.
I feel them gnawing out holes through flawless souls.
So alone. Sometimes I swear that I can hear the taunting of the voiceless ones.
I fear that I alone fear those who finally ceased to feel that they're alone
inside this place.
I am the misplaced.
Now every face, it looks familiar...
then every face would melt away until...
now everyone, do you know, I know your deception?
I walk right through the nameless ones.
I know that hope's unknown.
Sometimes the water feels so real.
As I walk through it fills my lungs, my god, I'm drowning.
This day never seems to end.
This pain, never.
The rage I can not let go.
I hear them calling my name.
I feel them gnawing out holes through flawless souls.
So alone. Sometimes I swear that I can hear the taunting of the voiceless ones.
I fear that I alone fear those who finally ceased to feel that they're alone
inside this place.
I am the misplaced.
Now every face, it looks familiar...
then every face would melt away until...
now everyone, do you know, I know your deception?

3 1/2 - afi lyrics
why am i this way?
tell me why?
why am i this way?
why?
open wounds in the palms of my hands,
festering through infections time.
I feel so faint as my life spills over you.
back step over glass as I repent.
I fear I cannot prevent myself
from spilling your life all over me.
go! I'm so sick, so sick of myself.
Mother, say you'll pray for me.
I'm so sick, so sick of myself.
I'm premature in my decay.
I'm so sick, so sick of myself.
Mother, say you'll pray for me.
I'm so sick, so sick of myself.
Shards of glass swimming in my eyes.
A small voice in the back of my mind
that's whispering words I never want to hear.
I pray that you won't hesitate,
as you watch me degenerate, to reach
in my wounds and extract all of my fear.
yeah! I'm so sick, so sick of myself.
Mother, say you'll pray for me.
I'm so sick, so sick of myself.
I'm premature in my decay.
I'm so sick, so sick of myself.
Mother, say you'll pray for me.
I'm so sick, so sick of myself.
My suffocation, asphyxiation.
I've been choking on my own blood.
My suffocation, asphyxiation.
I've been choking on my own blood.
I'm so sick, so sick of myself.
Mother, say you'll pray for me.
tell me why?
why am i this way?
why?
open wounds in the palms of my hands,

I feel so faint as my life spills over you.

Over Exposure - afi lyrics
I have seen ten roses bleed,
seen new petals fall,
I have felt my soul tear.
I have felt nothing at all.
Watched what was vibrant
fade as shadows fall.
I can see it's been done,
all that was pure has been eradicated.
I can see, it's all done.
Nothing can erase the damage done.
I have seen ten liars love,
seen two lovers lie,
seen youth, blinded, smiling.
I have seen deceit handed down.
From the highest height, below the lowly.
I can see it's been done,
all that was pure has been eradicated.
I can see, it's all done.
Nothing can erase the damage done.
I have seen beasts bathed in glory,
tread across the angels as they crawl.
Take it all away.
Regress to nothing.
Can someone please take
these images from my mind?
seen new petals fall,
I have felt my soul tear.
I have felt nothing at all.
Watched what was vibrant
fade as shadows fall.
I can see it's been done,
all that was pure has been eradicated.
I can see, it's all done.
Nothing can erase the damage done.
I have seen ten liars love,
seen two lovers lie,
seen youth, blinded, smiling.
I have seen deceit handed down.
From the highest height, below the lowly.
I can see it's been done,
all that was pure has been eradicated.
I can see, it's all done.
Nothing can erase the damage done.
I have seen beasts bathed in glory,
tread across the angels as they crawl.
Take it all away.
Regress to nothing.
Can someone please take
these images from my mind?
The Hanging Garden - afi lyrics
[The Cure cover song]
Creatures kissing in the rain,
shapeless in the dark again.
In the hanging garden, please don't speak.
In the hanging garden, no one sleeps.
In the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
Catching haloes on the moon,
gives my hands the shapes of angels.
In the heat of the night, the animals scream.
In the heat of the night, walking into a dream...
Fall, fall, fall, fall into the walls.
Jump, jump out of time.
Fall, fall, fall, fall out of the sky.
Cover my face as the animals cry,
in the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
Creatures kissing in the rain,
shapeless in the dark again.
In a hanging garden, change the past.
In a hanging garden, wearing furs and masks...
Fall, fall, fall, fall into the walls.
Jump, jump out of time.
Fall, fall, fall, fall out of the sky.
Cover my face as the animals die.
In the hanging garden.
as the animals die.
Cover my face as the animals die.
In the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
Creatures kissing in the rain,
shapeless in the dark again.
In the hanging garden, please don't speak.
In the hanging garden, no one sleeps.
In the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
Catching haloes on the moon,
gives my hands the shapes of angels.
In the heat of the night, the animals scream.
In the heat of the night, walking into a dream...
Fall, fall, fall, fall into the walls.
Jump, jump out of time.
Fall, fall, fall, fall out of the sky.
Cover my face as the animals cry,
in the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
Creatures kissing in the rain,
shapeless in the dark again.
In a hanging garden, change the past.
In a hanging garden, wearing furs and masks...
Fall, fall, fall, fall into the walls.
Jump, jump out of time.
Fall, fall, fall, fall out of the sky.
Cover my face as the animals die.
In the hanging garden.
as the animals die.
Cover my face as the animals die.
In the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
In the hanging garden.
Demonomania - afi lyrics
[The Misfits cover song]
Look upon me, I am the beast...
Demonomania, demonomania, demonomania, my father was a wolf.
Demonomania, Demonomania, Demonomania, my mother was a whore.
you check and see we aren't like other wolves.
It's in the blood, I wanna be the fucking savior.
Humans are weak, what else you fucking do?
Humans are weak, I want your blood.
Demonomania, Demonomania, Demonomania, my father was a wolf.
Demonomania, Demonomania, Demonomania, my mother was a whore.
Demonomania, Demonomania, Demonomania, my mother was a whore.
Demonomania, Demonomania, Demonomania, My father was a wolf.
Look upon me, I am the beast...
Demonomania, demonomania, demonomania, my father was a wolf.
Demonomania, Demonomania, Demonomania, my mother was a whore.
you check and see we aren't like other wolves.
It's in the blood, I wanna be the fucking savior.
Humans are weak, what else you fucking do?
Humans are weak, I want your blood.
Demonomania, Demonomania, Demonomania, my father was a wolf.
Demonomania, Demonomania, Demonomania, my mother was a whore.
Demonomania, Demonomania, Demonomania, my mother was a whore.
Demonomania, Demonomania, Demonomania, My father was a wolf.

Keeping Out Of Direct Sunlight (An Introduction) - afi lyrics
We are the ones with the radiating eyes.
We are the Ones who have a fire inside.
We are the ones only we can recognize.
We've been rejected (we've been rejected)-
Suffered the ignorance, suffered the selfishness,
been pushed so far down now comes our time to surface.
Turn from the light, that made them all go blind.
We've been protected (we've been protected)
ALL ARISE TO WHAT WE BRING,
OUTSTRETCHED HANDS, UNFOLDED WINGS.
We've hurt ourselves, and I feel the sting of
broken hearts and burning wings...
We are the Ones who have a fire inside.
We are the ones only we can recognize.
We've been rejected (we've been rejected)-
Suffered the ignorance, suffered the selfishness,
been pushed so far down now comes our time to surface.
Turn from the light, that made them all go blind.
We've been protected (we've been protected)
ALL ARISE TO WHAT WE BRING,
OUTSTRETCHED HANDS, UNFOLDED WINGS.
We've hurt ourselves, and I feel the sting of
broken hearts and burning wings...
Three Reasons - afi lyrics
Where were you? Say you were gone?
Well, ask me and I'll swear you were there all along.
Another place? Another state?
At any rate, I can't relate.
There's no two ways, you're a disgrace.
Drown down your fear, suffocate every spark of clarity.
Your weakness: sickens me, saddens me, strengthens me.
There's no way to free responsibility.
Who's to blame? Who's in the wrong?
The truth from which you hide - it was you all along.
You were there, you didn't care,
and your heart and mind were self impaired.
Now, all that's left is our despair.
Well, ask me and I'll swear you were there all along.
Another place? Another state?
At any rate, I can't relate.
There's no two ways, you're a disgrace.
Drown down your fear, suffocate every spark of clarity.
Your weakness: sickens me, saddens me, strengthens me.
There's no way to free responsibility.
Who's to blame? Who's in the wrong?
The truth from which you hide - it was you all along.
You were there, you didn't care,
and your heart and mind were self impaired.
Now, all that's left is our despair.
A Single Second - afi lyrics
Oh my God! My God this can't be happening!
God tell me, tell me this isn't real!
I can't believe all that I have
foreseen is finally happening.
I cannot for a single second stand the way I feel.
I always knew. I always saw it coming.
Enveloped now, encased by my worst fear.
I've never felt the nausea of longing to feel nothing,
I never wanted to cease to
exist, just disappear. Fear memories are all that lie ahead.
Never have I felt so lost. Memories dull my senses.
Fear tragedy is all that lies ahead.
Never have I felt so dead.
Once felt so warm, now I'm fucking freezing.
I am the once embraced abandoned one.
I raised my eyes up to the light in hopes of finding healing;
no relief was mine, I was burnt, by the sun.
God tell me, tell me this isn't real!
I can't believe all that I have
foreseen is finally happening.
I cannot for a single second stand the way I feel.
I always knew. I always saw it coming.
Enveloped now, encased by my worst fear.
I've never felt the nausea of longing to feel nothing,
I never wanted to cease to
exist, just disappear. Fear memories are all that lie ahead.
Never have I felt so lost. Memories dull my senses.
Fear tragedy is all that lies ahead.
Never have I felt so dead.
Once felt so warm, now I'm fucking freezing.
I am the once embraced abandoned one.
I raised my eyes up to the light in hopes of finding healing;
no relief was mine, I was burnt, by the sun.
PH Low - afi lyrics
So quickly draining away.
If you could only hear all the things you used to say.
Consumed now by what you knew
was poisonous, quenching your thirst for life (for life.)
Will you die for me?
Will you live for me?
Kill aspirations away.
Embrace a dream that was a nightmare only yesterday.
True friends forgotten and all hopes been traded in,
exchanged for what.
For what?
All at once, all is lost.
All is lost.
If you could only hear all the things you used to say.
Consumed now by what you knew
was poisonous, quenching your thirst for life (for life.)
Will you die for me?
Will you live for me?
Kill aspirations away.
Embrace a dream that was a nightmare only yesterday.
True friends forgotten and all hopes been traded in,
exchanged for what.
For what?
All at once, all is lost.
All is lost.
Let It Be Broke - afi lyrics
I live in truth, complacently.
Where's the threat you see in me?
Am I the cause of your self consciousness?
You scream at me
'cause I can't ignore the destructiveness that you support,
'cause my life's contrary to yours.
No soft words from my mouth.
A glazed look in your eyes.
I live in the world of reality, you comfort yourself with lies.
I will release myself, I will detach myself from you.
I will detach myself from your kind.
I've seen your life but I can't see how it is
that you can be so content in your own ignorance.
Its been so dark for so long now a new light has come along,
illuminating all, so shut your eyes.
I won't tell you what you want to hear,
I will show you what's real. i will, will defy.
Where's the threat you see in me?
Am I the cause of your self consciousness?
You scream at me
'cause I can't ignore the destructiveness that you support,
'cause my life's contrary to yours.
No soft words from my mouth.
A glazed look in your eyes.
I live in the world of reality, you comfort yourself with lies.

Third Season - afi lyrics
It's gonna take you by surprise as it rises.
Can you feel the pulse?
Can you feel the heat rising from below?
Can you feel the energy gaining strength, oh so slowly?
But i'll wait...i'll wait...till the seasons change.
i'll wait...i'll wait... till the fall comes.
And i'll give you a mirthless laugh.
Can you see the signs?
Can you see the changing of the winds?
Can you sense the stillness in the air?
Calm will remain...oh so shortly.
But i'll wait...till the seasons change.
i'll wait...till the fall comes.
Can you feel the pulse?
Can you feel the heat rising from below?
Can you feel the energy gaining strength, oh so slowly?
But i'll wait...i'll wait...till the seasons change.
i'll wait...i'll wait... till the fall comes.
And i'll give you a mirthless laugh.
Can you see the signs?
Can you see the changing of the winds?
Can you sense the stillness in the air?
Calm will remain...oh so shortly.
But i'll wait...till the seasons change.
i'll wait...till the fall comes.
Lower Your Head And Take It In The Body - afi lyrics
Drowned in flames is where I can be found,
my nose broke from being smashed into the ground.
What a waste, this place I call my home.
Escape this place and break out on my own! I'm still reaching.
Try to slap me down, but I'll still
hold. In the fray is where I can be found.
My head is bruised from always being knocked around.
What a fight, this life I call my own!
Escape this life, and break out on my own! I'm still reaching!
Try to slap me down, but I'll still hold.
I'll hold my own.
my nose broke from being smashed into the ground.
What a waste, this place I call my home.
Escape this place and break out on my own! I'm still reaching.
Try to slap me down, but I'll still
hold. In the fray is where I can be found.
My head is bruised from always being knocked around.
What a fight, this life I call my own!
Escape this life, and break out on my own! I'm still reaching!
Try to slap me down, but I'll still hold.
I'll hold my own.
Coin Return - afi lyrics
I have slipped and I have fallen so far down I can't get out.
Overwhelmed by my doubt.
Things I said I'd never do I've done.
Those I said I'd never be I've become.
I have broken - I'm still breaking - cracked and wrecked, beyond repair.
I can see that no one cares. Forgotten.
Recalled. Smacks me in the face every time I fall.
I cannot disregard, with each new fall I hit twice as hard.
Would you be there for me? I would.
I would be there for you. I would.
Would you look up to see?
I would. falling forward and looking up.
Overwhelmed by my doubt.
Things I said I'd never do I've done.
Those I said I'd never be I've become.
I have broken - I'm still breaking - cracked and wrecked, beyond repair.
I can see that no one cares. Forgotten.
Recalled. Smacks me in the face every time I fall.
I cannot disregard, with each new fall I hit twice as hard.
Would you be there for me? I would.
I would be there for you. I would.
Would you look up to see?
I would. falling forward and looking up.
The New Patron Saints And Angels - afi lyrics
I've seen the light that emanates from you,
and it makes me feel proud, a voice of reason above the muffling crowds.
Such will to live and you've got so much to give, long lost sincerity.
Lost in a world that's been scorched to black.
Lost in myself until I finally find.
A guide in you, and gratitude is mine, I admire the way you shine.
Stare down the day from which others shield their eyes,
with complete clarity, and no trace of apathy.
So positive, and your heart you freely give, long lost vivacity.
Lost in a world that's been scorched to black.
Lost in myself until I finally find.
A guide in you, and gratitude is mine, I admire the way you shine.
and it makes me feel proud, a voice of reason above the muffling crowds.
Such will to live and you've got so much to give, long lost sincerity.
Lost in a world that's been scorched to black.
Lost in myself until I finally find.
A guide in you, and gratitude is mine, I admire the way you shine.
Stare down the day from which others shield their eyes,
with complete clarity, and no trace of apathy.
So positive, and your heart you freely give, long lost vivacity.
Lost in a world that's been scorched to black.
Lost in myself until I finally find.
A guide in you, and gratitude is mine, I admire the way you shine.
Three Second Notice - afi lyrics
Submission- My back hurts from bowing down.
Attraction - Was once so strong now can't be found.
Affection - One gift i wish you would return.
Frustration - as i accede.
i do not deserve your frigidness, such callousness, yet i persist.
What's wrong with me?
I told you "you can't be replaced", you showed me I'm disposable.
Spit in my face, as I submit, so I quit!

Salt For Your Wounds - afi lyrics
There's a tear in my heart where the blood ran out.
There's a tear in my heart where the love ran out. I thought
we worked, pushed toward the same ends,
I'll never be so quick to trust again.
Disenchanted, disgusted, I regret that I trusted.
I put my faith.
My faith in you, you poisoned me through and through.
I though we both shared the same injuries.
Now I've found it's you who injures me.
My heart is cracked from being left out in the cold.
I know you'll pay for what you've taken - tenfold.
Disenchanted, disgusted, I regret that I trusted.
I put my faith.
My faith in them, they twisted the knife further in.
There's a tear in my heart where the love ran out. I thought

You hate yourself you do,
You hate yourself you do.
That’s why, right now I love you
Soo fuck you.
The Devil Loves You - afi lyrics
Do you understand what I'm trying to say? Have you ever felt?
Ever felt this way? Tainted with rage you can't
drain away or it will cost you your life. I couldn't care more.
Do you ever absorb what shouldn't be touched? Have you ever
cared? Ever cared this much?
Do you think it is I who is out of touch, or are you too scared to think at all?
I couldn't care more.
As your friends fall does it tear your heart?
Do tears fill your eyes as your world falls apart?
Do you notice at all,
or are you sailing sublime? Am I completely alone?
Ever felt this way? Tainted with rage you can't
drain away or it will cost you your life. I couldn't care more.
Do you ever absorb what shouldn't be touched? Have you ever
cared? Ever cared this much?
Do you think it is I who is out of touch, or are you too scared to think at all?
I couldn't care more.
As your friends fall does it tear your heart?
Do tears fill your eyes as your world falls apart?
Do you notice at all,
or are you sailing sublime? Am I completely alone?
Triple Zero - afi lyrics
It burns! It burns! It burns my eyes and throat, but I need no antidote.
Gnawing and tearing at my insides -
seething, keeping me alive - hatred poisons me through and through -
a sustenance - keeping me true. It's not too late.
It's never gonna be too late.
Embrace your hate. The pain! The pain!
The pain it crushes me. I gain animosity. Acid sweat and
bloody tears, through it all I preserve.
Some sedate through indifference but I withheld zero tolerance.
Gnawing and tearing at my insides -
seething, keeping me alive - hatred poisons me through and through -
a sustenance - keeping me true. It's not too late.
It's never gonna be too late.
Embrace your hate. The pain! The pain!
The pain it crushes me. I gain animosity. Acid sweat and
bloody tears, through it all I preserve.
Some sedate through indifference but I withheld zero tolerance.
Last Caress - afi lyrics
[Misfits cover]
Well I got something to say,
I killed your baby today,
And it, doesn't matter much to me,
as long as it's dead.
Well I got something to say,
I raped your Mother today,
And it, doesn't matter much to me,
as long as she's spread.
Sweet lovely death, i've been waiting for your breath,
oh sweet death, one last caress.
Go!
Sweet lovely death, i've been waiting for your breath,
oh sweet death, one last caress.
Well I got something to say,
I killed your baby today,
And it, doesn't matter much to me,
as long as it's dead.
Sweet lovely death, i've been waiting for your breath,
oh sweet death, one last caress.
One last caress sweet death, one last caress sweet death,
Ohh, ohh, whoah, ohh.
Go!
Well I got something to say,
I killed your baby today,
And it, doesn't matter much to me,
as long as it's dead.
Well I got something to say,
I raped your Mother today,

Sweet lovely death, i've been waiting for your breath,

One last caress sweet death, one last caress sweet death,
Ohh, ohh, whoah, ohh.
Go!

No trust can be given freely, it's a valuable commodity,
but obviously this is something you've never learned.
Faith is something that you put in friends, and had I excess morals to lend,
I'd let you borrow them, but my trust you haven't earned.
We've got a problem? First of all there is no "we", I'm detached from you completely.
I've got a problem. You tell lies to my friends and think it won't get back to me.
No bond can ever seem to make a stable fit in our relationship,
but one thing that never comes between us is honesty.
When you have something to say, you always seem to find a way to avoid the truth or instead, avoid me.
We've got a problem? First of all there is no "we", I'm detached from you completely.
I've got a problem. You tell lies to my friends and think it won't get back to me.
Straight up is how you'll see me stand, but it is never in your plans to be straight forward,
so instead, you use deceit.
Now I would like to take apart what you've been breaking from the start.
I'll remain intact, I won't be broken in defeat.

Wake-Up Call -afi lyrics
If I had my way I'd wish them away,
but I can't find the magic inside of me.
I'll give my best, cause I can give no more,
but your problems aren't solved so easily.
I'm not someone that you should run to.
I've been, often, as broken as you,
more often than you'd like me to.
If I could heal all the pain that you feel,
I'd gladly cure all that ails you inside.
Unfortunately, I have no degree and I can not anesthetize.
I'm not someone that you should run to.
I've been, often, as broken as you,
more often than you'd like me to.
whoa!
I wish that I could help you.
whoa!
I can't even help myself.
whoa!
It seems you need a saving grace and a savior's something I'm not.
right! whoa!
I wish that I could help you.
whoa!
I can't even help myself.
whoa!
It seems you need a saving grace and a savior's something I'm not.

Cult Status - afi lyrics
I'll turn you on and switch you right off.
I'll make sure you like what you see.
Forget all that you once believed.
Now you will believe in me.
Do you believe you make the choice, decide what you hold most dear?
In all opinions that you voice, it's my voice that they all hear.
I'll take your ideas and your values, I'll make you turn them all around.
I'll break you individuality, I'll take you down.
I'll seal shut your open eyes.
I'll give you a taste of the bland.
Intoxicated you take me in.
You'll never feel the touch of my hand.
I'll take your ideas and your values, I'll make you turn them all around.
I'll break you individuality, I'll take you down.
I'll turn you on and switch you right off. I'll soothe your troubled mind.
You'll never have to think again, it's just a matter of lost time.
I'll take your ideas and your values, I'll make you turn them all around.
I'll break you individuality, I'll take you down.
I'll take you down. I'll take you down.
I'll make sure you like what you see.
Forget all that you once believed.

Perfect Fit - afi lyrics
What was it I was thinking, or was I even thinking at all?
When I think of what I thought back then, then I'm ashamed,
and I'm appalled that I gave up all I was so easily.
Living your life is not for me.
I won't be sedated, I won't be sedated!
Give me a little taste and I know I won't want more.
I won't be sedated, stability is overrated.
Give me the disorder I adore.
What was it you were thinking, or were you even thinking at all?
When I think of what you thought of me, I take offense,
and I'm appalled that you could discount all I love so easily.
Living your life is not for me.
I won't be sedated, I won't be sedated!
Give me a little taste and I know I won't want more.
I won't be sedated, stability is overrated.
Give me the disorder I adore.
I can't be a part, be a part, I can't be a part.
I can't be a part, be a part of your modern world.
I've gotta be apart, be apart, I've gotta be apart.
I've gotta be apart. I don't grasp the values that you hold.
I can't be a part, be a part, I can't be a part.
I can't be a part, be a part of your modern world.
I've gotta be apart, be apart, I've gotta be apart.
I've gotta be apart. I don't grasp the values that you hold.
I can't be a part, be a part, I can't be a part.
I can't be a part, be a part of your modern world.
I've gotta be apart, be apart, I've gotta be apart.
I've gotta be apart. I don't grasp your values!

Advances In Modern Technology - afi lyrics
Every night I walk the streets, awake while everyone else sleeps.
I'm giving unease to anyone I meet.
My generosity can never run out, because I give a gift from what's within myself.
No hope at all. Take nothing from nothing and you'll have nothing left.
I can't recall. I can't recall a moment in my life when life was at it's best.
Everyone avoids my stare and no one cares to ever dare to look into the eyes of what they most fear.
And they're taught to fear, to fear no evil.
And they know no fear, they've learned to love themselves.
No hope at all. Take nothing from nothing and you'll have nothing left.
I can't recall. I can't recall a moment in my life when life was at it's best.
Forever unlucky, cause I'll own tomorrow. Forever unwanted, outcast today.
I'm not mislead, I've got no one to follow. Everywhere to go, no place to stay.
No hope at all. Take nothing from nothing and you'll have nothing left.
I can't recall. I can't recall a moment in my life when life was at it's best.

Theory Of Revolution - afi lyrics
Don't want to think about it, but I see it every day.
Corrupted innocence just doesn't seem to fade away.
Spoiled so young, you know it's bound to last,
but when you're living in the city, you've gotta grow up fast.
And it makes me sick.
God, it makes me sick.
And it makes me sick.
God, it makes me sick.
Don't want to think about it, but I see it every day.
If you want to buy affluence, your soul you'll have to pay.
Wasting away the prime of your life,
but it's been done that way for years, so you know it must be all right.
And it makes me sick.
God, it makes me sick.
And it makes me sick.
God, it makes me sick.
It's just not right!
Don't wanna think about it, but I see it every day.
With every sip and every shot, mind and bodies fade away.
Friends are all gone, and memories don't last,
but when you've fallen off the wagon, you seem to fall so damn fast.
Corrupted innocence just doesn't seem to fade away.
Spoiled so young, you know it's bound to last,
but when you're living in the city, you've gotta grow up fast.
And it makes me sick.

This Secret Ninja - afi lyrics
Just like cellophane, you try to cling so tight to me,
but your attempt's in vain. You've less sincerity than the plastic.
Paper in the rain. The print appears so bright to me.
The words remain. I hold it to the light, I see right through.
So eager to say, "hello", but you don't know me.
You just know what you see. Pay the price to see the show but you don't own me.
Before you knew would you have felt the same?
Just when I'm inspired, you drain the drive right outta me,
and even when I'm tired you push me to perform for your amusement.
Just like raging fire, you burn what's left inside of me and to fulfill your desire,
I'd give you light till I burned out.
So eager to say, "hello", but you don't know me.
You just know what you see. Pay the price to see the show but you don't own me.
Before you knew would you have felt the same?
No!
Just when you start to smile, I look into your eyes
and see your veiled denial to express any real emotion.
Just wait around a while, you'll lose what you once had for me.
I'll be out of style, I'll be discarded with the warmth you once feigned.
So eager to say, "hello", but you don't know me.
You just know what you see. Pay the price to see the show but you don't own me.

Soap-Box Derby - afi lyrics
I'm not angry, I'm just amused at your quest for attention through your self abuse.
The only response that you get for your plea is sorely less than sympathy.
What reason is there to be alive? When the word is against you how can you survive?
All your friends are apathetic at best, and your entire life is a total mess.
Give it a fuckin' rest.
You can't, you can't feel me.
I feel I'm scarred so deep.
No one could ever need me.
Could you please leave me alone?
I'm sorry to hear that your world's sinking fast and you've lost your stable ground
and I'm sorry to add to your disappointment, but I won't be brought down.
I'm not angry, I'm just amused at all the dramatics you love to use,
but one thing I have noticed that is strange to me is that not happy unless you're unhappy.
you're not content until you're brought down,
and you're always so alone because you can't be found.
You're soul is black and you're filled with hate.
Home much more can you possibly take?
Give me a fuckin' break.
You can't, you can't feel me.

Aspirin Free - afi lyrics
There's no hope of helping us, we've only just begun.
We're youth eternal, nothing more to become.
A thousand lights are burning bright.
Give day a darkened light.
Always burning from both ends.
We're proud of reputations we all own.
Together forever. Rejected but never alone.
Together forever.
I'd purify the world with one primal scream, but no one would listen.
Keep dark secrets to myself, because no one else will talk to me.
It's hard for me to comprehend, they couldn't understand
all the thoughts going through our heads.
With a smile they tore us up, now look what we've become.
Finally we are numb. We're proud of reputations we all own.
Together forever. Together forever alone.
Together forever.
I'd purify the world with one primal scream, but no one would listen.
Keep dark secrets to myself, because no one else will talk to me.
I'd purify the world with one primal scream, but no one would listen.
Keep dark secrets to myself, because no one else will talk to me.
No need to. No! No need to feel.
I've got a nothingness and that's all that's real.
No need to cut the numbness inside.
No need to. No! No need to hear.
What you've got to say means nothing at all.
I've got no distance left to fall.
I'd purify the world with one primal scream, but no one would listen.
Keep dark secrets to myself, because no one else will talk to me.

Fishbowl - afi lyrics
I'm here today, just like every yesterday.
Heavy heat, and the sheets stick to my skin.
Can't get away from nothingness.
I try to get up, but I have to give into the force that is keeping me down.
I overcome gravity, I look outside.
A cat cries out, trapped upon a window sill,
but its crying's drowned out by my screaming inside.
What will it take? I wonder what it's like exposed outside,
would I be safe? When will it break.
Try to look out, I see reflection I just want to break.
Sirens moan. They're forever crying... someone's probably dying.
The sound sticks inside my head. Talk to myself, I'm company,
but who is to say if nothing is said?
Two windows stare back at me.
Three stories high and nothing is new.
I may sit, but someday I'll stand.
I'll muster up the will and fire myself through.
What will it take? I wonder what it's like exposed outside,
would I be safe? When will it break.
Try to look out, I see reflection I just want to break.
What will it take? I wonder what it's like exposed outside,
would I be safe? When will it break.
Try to look out, I see reflection I just want to break.
Heavy heat, and the sheets stick to my skin.

would I be safe? When will it break.
Try to look out, I see reflection I just want to break.
Charles Atlas - afi lyrics
You've seen it all a thousand times (you've seen it all a thousand times),
you've heard it all before (you've heard it all before).
You've danced the steps, you wrote the rhymes.
So passe, too many times, but you're hollow at the core.
Two generations passed you by (two generations passed you by).
You think there's nothing left (you think there's nothing left).
But look around and you will see what our world has grown to be.
We are the now, not the past.
Can't you even try to see the strength with which we've built ourselves to be.
I know that you will never be able to destroy what it's meant to me.
You've never seen the likes of us (you've never seen the likes of us).
We are your novelty (we are your novelty).
A brand new trend with mass appeal, don't like the truth, don't like what's real.
You're jumping into something you'll never understand.
You think that it's a passing phase (you think that it's a passing phase).
It's our entire life (it's our entire life).
You revel in rebellious ways, rebellion that the media made.
When you change your channel, we'll smash your t.v.
Can't you even try to see the strength with which we've built ourselves to be.
I know that you will never be able to destroy what it's meant to me.
Can't you even try to see the strength with which we've built ourselves to be.
I know that you will never be able to destroy what it's meant to me.
you've heard it all before (you've heard it all before).
You've danced the steps, you wrote the rhymes.
So passe, too many times, but you're hollow at the core.
Two generations passed you by (two generations passed you by).

Crop Tub - afi lyrics
Fuck you very much.
You say you want to be friends, start over, try again?
Well, things will never be the way they were back then.
Things were never how you wanted, I couldn't think of you that way.
Now, if you take one step closer I will take two steps away.
Maybe you need affection,
I'd like to help you but I can't stand when you're around.
Fuck you very much.
Maybe you need to talk, but you betrayed my trust.
Friends was not good enough?
Fuck you very much.
You can always claim you're straight-edge, go ahead and dye your hair.
You won't get more attention from me, cause I will never fucking care.
I try to remain secret, shooting away and hiding out, but you always track me down.
Open your eyes and figure it out.
Maybe you need affection, I'd like to help you but I can't stand when you're around.
Fuck you very much.
Maybe you need to talk, but you betrayed my trust.
Friends was not good enough?
Fuck you very much.
I'm not trying again.
I'm sick of seeing you.
Don't wanna be your friend.
I wish you'd go away.
Fuck you very much.
You say you want to be friends, start over, try again?
Well, things will never be the way they were back then.

Maybe you need affection, I'd like to help you but I can't stand when you're around.

Consult My Lover - afi lyrics
You've got something to say, or so you say to me, then you receive a blank stare.
You've got something to say of importance and gosh, that's really good to hear.
I'm proud of you, so proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm very proud of you.
I'm proud of you, so proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm very proud of you.
You've got some S.P. Something to show to me. Well, I have seen it before.
I can't compete, I can't impress you. I guess I'll show you the door.
I'm proud of you, so proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm very proud of you.
I'm proud of you, so proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm very proud of you.
I'm proud of you, so proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm very proud of you.
I'm proud of you, so proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm very proud of you.
You've got something to say of importance and gosh, that's really good to hear.

I'm proud of you, so proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm very proud of you.
I'm proud of you, so proud of you, I'm proud of you, I'm very proud of you.
Take The Test - afi lyrics
When it comes the time that you have recognized your line
and you realize the path that you will travel through your life.
be sure that what you want is exactly what you're trying to get,
or you'll be speeding toward a cliff without realizing that...
Before you know, the haze makes you slow.
Ignore your future, forget your past.
before you know, cars start to crash.
There are so many choices, the opportunities abound.
Just be sure to keep things straight and be sure to stand your ground.
Let nothing shade your vision, even fight to keep it clear.
Let no one change what's right for you, for when you start to veer.
Before you know, the haze makes you slow.
Ignore your future, forget your past.
before you know, cars start to crash.
Before you know, the haze makes you slow.
Ignore your future, forget your past.
before you know, cars start to crash.
Cars start to crash.
Before you know, the haze makes you slow.
Ignore your future, forget your past.
before you know, cars start to crash (Cars start to crash).
and you realize the path that you will travel through your life.
be sure that what you want is exactly what you're trying to get,
or you'll be speeding toward a cliff without realizing that...
Before you know, the haze makes you slow.
Ignore your future, forget your past.
before you know, cars start to crash.
There are so many choices, the opportunities abound.
Just be sure to keep things straight and be sure to stand your ground.
Let nothing shade your vision, even fight to keep it clear.
Let no one change what's right for you, for when you start to veer.
Before you know, the haze makes you slow.
Ignore your future, forget your past.
before you know, cars start to crash.
Before you know, the haze makes you slow.
Ignore your future, forget your past.
before you know, cars start to crash.
Cars start to crash.
Before you know, the haze makes you slow.
Ignore your future, forget your past.
before you know, cars start to crash (Cars start to crash).
Shatty Fatmas - afi lyrics
Don't care to hear what you heard.
I won't believe a single word.
Don't care to hear what you say.
I won't believe it anyway.
You relay fiction, facts you avoid.
You're just like a fucking tabloid,
you can never seem to get your information straight.
Tell me something I don't know.
Your information's fucking faux.
Don't you have somewhere to go?
Your mouth is quick, your mind is slow.
Don't want to know what you know.
I just want you to fucking go.
Don't want to know what you believe.
I just wish that you would leave.
You try to cajz everyday, I wish that you would get away.
You can never seem to get your information straight.
Tell me something I don't know.
Your information's fucking faux.
Don't you have somewhere to go?
Your mouth is quick, your mind is slow.
Go! When you try to hang around,
I'd really like to push you down.
When you try to understand,
I don't really think that you can.
You relay fiction, facts you avoid.
You're just like a fucking tabloid,
you can never seem to get your information straight.
Tell me something I don't know.
Your information's fucking faux.

Yurf Rendenmein - afi lyrics
You keep on sayin' that you want to know me
but you never show me your true self.
How can you ever expect someone else to know you
when all you're going to do is just pretend that you're someone else?
You keep on sayin' that you want to show me
that you're really different, but your just the same.
If you're really mindless then there is no way
that I can win, maybe you're just one of them, or maybe it's just a game.
You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself and remain alone.
You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself and remain alone.
Remain alone. Remain alone. I'm not exactly sure of your motivation.
I'm not exactly sure what you're tryin' to do.
All I'm really sure is that you're not too
impressive and you're wearin' a mask that I can't see through.
Maybe you're not looking for acceptance.
Maybe you're striving for something more.
If it's status that you lust then why try to be one of us?
You're someone we'll never trust cause we know the score.
You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself and remain alone.
You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself and remain alone.
Remain alone. You remain alone. Oh!
I can't see through. I can't see you. I can't see through. I can't see you.
but you never show me your true self.
How can you ever expect someone else to know you
when all you're going to do is just pretend that you're someone else?
You keep on sayin' that you want to show me
that you're really different, but your just the same.
If you're really mindless then there is no way

You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself and remain alone.
You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself. You lie to yourself and remain alone.

I'm not exactly sure what you're tryin' to do.
All I'm really sure is that you're not too

Remain alone. You remain alone. Oh!
I can't see through. I can't see you. I can't see through. I can't see you.
Cruise Control - afi lyrics
I will never want to date you while I can learn to hate you.
If you somehow learn to love me, well, that's just my luck.
I would never care if you only wanted my friendship,
but somehow you're disappointed that I'm not a slut.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you, so fuck you.
In my mind there is no doubt that you've been in
and out of many different backseats, many times before.
I can always see your defeat when I won't leave the front seat.
And it seems your disappointed that I'm not a whore.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you, so fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you, so fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you, so fuck you.
If you somehow learn to love me, well, that's just my luck.
I would never care if you only wanted my friendship,
but somehow you're disappointed that I'm not a slut.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you, so fuck you.
In my mind there is no doubt that you've been in

I can always see your defeat when I won't leave the front seat.
And it seems your disappointed that I'm not a whore.

I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you, so fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you.
I don't want to fuck you, so fuck you.
Modern Epic - afi lyrics
Yeah I can see it coming.
I've seen it all before.
I've seen it once or twice
and now I hear it call to board.
This train is moving fast
but how long is it gonna last.
I guess that we'll find out
as well go in through the out door.
Don't, don't ever let go.
Don't, don't ever let go.
Is this the start?
Is this the end?
New faces ask, "what's happening?"
I bite my tongue and hold my breath
and tell them, "the same old thing."
I don't know what's going on,
but I don't wanna do it wrong.
Don't wanna contradict myself
with all the words I sing.
Don't, don't ever let go.
Don't, don't ever let go.
Let's go! Don't, don't ever let go.
Don't, don't ever let go.
Don't ever let go.
Don't ever let go.
I've seen it all before.
I've seen it once or twice
and now I hear it call to board.
This train is moving fast
but how long is it gonna last.
I guess that we'll find out
as well go in through the out door.
Don't, don't ever let go.
Don't, don't ever let go.
Is this the start?
Is this the end?
New faces ask, "what's happening?"
I bite my tongue and hold my breath
and tell them, "the same old thing."
I don't know what's going on,
but I don't wanna do it wrong.
Don't wanna contradict myself
with all the words I sing.
Don't, don't ever let go.
Don't, don't ever let go.
Let's go! Don't, don't ever let go.
Don't, don't ever let go.
Don't ever let go.
Don't ever let go.
Who Said You Could Touch Me? - afi lyrics
You don't know I am so,
you can not get close to me
and I don't know who you are,
so just leave me alone.
I know you can't believe
the anxiety you're causing me
and I know you can't believe
your fake compassion I don't need.
Get away from me, You're standing too close.
Keep your hands off of me.
Keep away from me, Just leave me alone,
who said you could touch me anyway?
Don't try to rub my shoulders
and don't try to hold my hand.
Don't try to give me a fucking hug.
You crawl on me as if I were your very best of friends.
I don't even know your name.
Get away from me, You're standing too close.
Keep your hands off of me.
Keep away from me, Just leave me alone,
who said you could touch me anyway?
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. ah!
you can not get close to me
and I don't know who you are,
so just leave me alone.
I know you can't believe
the anxiety you're causing me
and I know you can't believe
your fake compassion I don't need.
Get away from me, You're standing too close.
Keep your hands off of me.
Keep away from me, Just leave me alone,
who said you could touch me anyway?
Don't try to rub my shoulders
and don't try to hold my hand.
Don't try to give me a fucking hug.
You crawl on me as if I were your very best of friends.
I don't even know your name.
Get away from me, You're standing too close.
Keep your hands off of me.
Keep away from me, Just leave me alone,
who said you could touch me anyway?
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. ah!

Rolling Balls - afi lyrics
Bowling is my life and it has always been my dream
to be a member of the local bowling team, but I'm not very good.
The guys won't accept me, I guess I try the girls team
and lose a part of my anatomy then balls will roll.
I think I want to be...
Balls will roll, I think it's time,
it's time for me to be a girl.
It's a very big decision, it's going to change my life.
I'll have to make all new friends, I'm gonna lose my wife.
But that's okay with me. There's something in my soul.
It doesn't matter who's the better man, it the man who gets to bowl.
Balls will roll. I think I want to be...
Balls will roll, I think it's time, it's time for me to be a girl.
Go! I've made my decision, I'm gonna make the change.
There will be rolling balls, I'm gonna play my game.
It's gonna be so great. It's gonna be the best,
besides, I've always told myself I look good in a dress.
I'm gonna cut 'em off, I'm gonna cut 'em off, I'm gonna cut 'em off.
I'll never have to cough.
Now I've made my change and I've fulfilled my dream.
I'm now a member of the women's bowling team.
I hope I throw a strike, cause I'll never score again.
My first game is tomorrow, I will go to play and then...
Balls will roll. I think I want to be...
Balls will roll, I think it's time, it's time for me to be.
to be a member of the local bowling team, but I'm not very good.
The guys won't accept me, I guess I try the girls team
and lose a part of my anatomy then balls will roll.
I think I want to be...
Balls will roll, I think it's time,
it's time for me to be a girl.
It's a very big decision, it's going to change my life.
I'll have to make all new friends, I'm gonna lose my wife.
But that's okay with me. There's something in my soul.
It doesn't matter who's the better man, it the man who gets to bowl.
Balls will roll. I think I want to be...
Balls will roll, I think it's time, it's time for me to be a girl.
Go! I've made my decision, I'm gonna make the change.
There will be rolling balls, I'm gonna play my game.
It's gonna be so great. It's gonna be the best,

I'm gonna cut 'em off, I'm gonna cut 'em off, I'm gonna cut 'em off.

I'm now a member of the women's bowling team.
I hope I throw a strike, cause I'll never score again.
My first game is tomorrow, I will go to play and then...
Balls will roll. I think I want to be...
Balls will roll, I think it's time, it's time for me to be.

If it's status that you lust then why try to be one of us?
You're someone we'll never trust 'cause
we know the score.
Two Of A Kind - afi lyrics
Hangin' out and lingerin' around, cause you know where
I'll be found and I don't know how you do it.
This obsession I must admit has me shaken up a bit.
My solidarity now only comes in pairs.
I'd like to see you before you see me.
I'd like to see you leave.
Showered by torrential praise, why it is I can't explain.
Attempts to leave yeild no avail.
For me I don't know what's in store.
All I want is nothing more.
I don't deserve what I get, I have nothing to return.
I'll be found and I don't know how you do it.
This obsession I must admit has me shaken up a bit.
My solidarity now only comes in pairs.
I'd like to see you before you see me.
I'd like to see you leave.
Showered by torrential praise, why it is I can't explain.
Attempts to leave yeild no avail.
For me I don't know what's in store.
All I want is nothing more.
I don't deserve what I get, I have nothing to return.
Half-Empty Bottle - afi lyrics
The ends don't always justify the means,
but I know what it takes to get what I
need, I've got the cure when passive protest just won't do...just flick my
Bic as I hold it to the fuse.
Smash it up.
Break it down.
Bring it down, down to the ground.
Tear it up.
Burn it down.
Burn
it down, down to the ground.
How long have we waited for the day when they tighten their grips
and we slip away?
The sound of breaking glass drives me back up.
It makes me whole, when I've been down on my luck.
but I know what it takes to get what I
need, I've got the cure when passive protest just won't do...just flick my
Bic as I hold it to the fuse.
Smash it up.
Break it down.
Bring it down, down to the ground.
Tear it up.
Burn it down.
Burn
it down, down to the ground.
How long have we waited for the day when they tighten their grips
and we slip away?
The sound of breaking glass drives me back up.
It makes me whole, when I've been down on my luck.
I Wanna Get A Mohawk (But Mom Won't Let Me Get One) - afi lyrics
I may be ten years old but I still know what's up.
I wear my Cramps shirt almost
every single day. I want to sag my pants.
I want to pogo dance, but Mom won't let me so I might just run away.
I wanna ride my skate. I wanna stay out late.
I wanna mohawk but mom won't let me get one.
I wanna go to shows.
Don't wanna pierce my nose.
I wanna get a mohawk but mom won't let me get one.
I may be in fourth grade, but I know what's going on.
I listen to the Misfits almost every single day.
Don't want to take a nap, I want a TV tat,
but Mom won't let me so I might just disobey.
I wear my Cramps shirt almost
every single day. I want to sag my pants.
I want to pogo dance, but Mom won't let me so I might just run away.
I wanna ride my skate. I wanna stay out late.
I wanna mohawk but mom won't let me get one.
I wanna go to shows.
Don't wanna pierce my nose.
I wanna get a mohawk but mom won't let me get one.
I may be in fourth grade, but I know what's going on.
I listen to the Misfits almost every single day.
Don't want to take a nap, I want a TV tat,
but Mom won't let me so I might just disobey.
Brownie Bottom Sundae - afi lyrics
Into the dark is where you're draggin me
and into your dark is where I never want to
be. I know I'm not alone and I really want to leave.
Into the dark is where you want to watch me bleed.
I'm feeling kinda trapped, I gotta go.
I'm feelin' kinda trapped don't you know. I'm feelin
kinda trapped I gotta go.
I gotta go.
I'm being dragged down, for how long, I don't know.
I'm being dragged down and I rise up way
too slow. I know I don't belong here and I think I ought to go.
I hope that I can leave here, leave here with my soul.
and into your dark is where I never want to
be. I know I'm not alone and I really want to leave.
Into the dark is where you want to watch me bleed.
I'm feeling kinda trapped, I gotta go.
I'm feelin' kinda trapped don't you know. I'm feelin
kinda trapped I gotta go.
I gotta go.
I'm being dragged down, for how long, I don't know.
I'm being dragged down and I rise up way
too slow. I know I don't belong here and I think I ought to go.
I hope that I can leave here, leave here with my soul.
The Checkered Demon - afi lyrics
Too much to find, so much so little time.
So many images persist to shade my mind.
Will I ever come around or will I just hit the ground?
Will I still be standing when it all comes down?
Why can't I seem to sort it out?
Why am I always filled with doubt
So many people everywhere,
so self-absorbed without a care of their viral lves.
I'd like to bleed them all, when all is drained who shall hold?
When mindless bodies screw tortured souls,
will somebody be there to catch me when I fall?
Why can't I seem to sort it out.
Why am I always filled with doubt.
How could I always be so
blind? Why can't I figure it out?
I could always hope for change, could always hope to rearrange.
But why not just abandon hope
and tear it all apart, now?
So many images persist to shade my mind.
Will I ever come around or will I just hit the ground?
Will I still be standing when it all comes down?
Why can't I seem to sort it out?
Why am I always filled with doubt
So many people everywhere,
so self-absorbed without a care of their viral lves.
I'd like to bleed them all, when all is drained who shall hold?
When mindless bodies screw tortured souls,
will somebody be there to catch me when I fall?
Why can't I seem to sort it out.
Why am I always filled with doubt.
How could I always be so
blind? Why can't I figure it out?
I could always hope for change, could always hope to rearrange.
But why not just abandon hope
and tear it all apart, now?
Cereal Wars - afi lyrics
Get up early in the morning, going to the store.
Post, Kellogs, General Mills?
It's the cereal war.
Fucking store never has the monsters and they never get more.
Post, Kellogs, General Mills?
It's the cereal war.
I hope sexual chocolate is in stock, it's got a condom in the box.
I'll try some cocoa puffs
today who the fuck is Sonny anyway?
Some say Dino's are the best, they've got more marshmallows than the rest.
There's not a lot of cocoa in Cocoa Krispies, and always stay away from
Wheaties.
Now it's dinner time and I'm going back to the store.
I had some Erkles, liked 'em a lot. It's
the cereal war.
I wish I were Calvin or Hobbes, and then I could try Sugar Bombs.
The soggies will never get
Cap'n Crunch, I guess I'll have Crunch Berries for lunch.
Breakfast cereals need to be sweet, that's the only kind I'll eat.
Give me sugar, not nuts and twigs!
Do I look like a fuckin' squirrel to you?

The Mother In Me - afi lyrics
Caught in a world that's plagued by something they call love.
A paradigm of illness
is the beast I have become.
The sights that I have seen could nearly bring me to my knees.
I've seen exactlty what it is I never want to be,
But I keep it deep inside myself.
It's within me.
Keep it deep within yourself and sink with me.
Last night I had the misfortune to see it all first hand.
"Evacuate the premises" was the innate first command.
What drives the need for all of this?
And will I ever understand?
Has someone failed to tell me of this master plan?
But I keep it deep inside myself.
It's within me.
Keep it deep within yourself and sink with me.
A paradigm of illness
is the beast I have become.
The sights that I have seen could nearly bring me to my knees.
I've seen exactlty what it is I never want to be,
But I keep it deep inside myself.
It's within me.
Keep it deep within yourself and sink with me.
Last night I had the misfortune to see it all first hand.
"Evacuate the premises" was the innate first command.
What drives the need for all of this?
And will I ever understand?
Has someone failed to tell me of this master plan?
But I keep it deep inside myself.
It's within me.
Keep it deep within yourself and sink with me.
Rizzo In The Box - afi lyrics
I'm always around you to show you that I care, but I don't know what for.
It seems
to me that you couldn't care less so I'm not gonna do it anymore.
I see no reason why I've placed such a value on you,
but my thoughts have changed now,
I've opened my eyes and now I'm through.
Looking back at my short life, the few pleasures that I've found,
all your misconceptions pummel me to the ground.
Now, I look at your small life and it doesn't mean a bit. I pick myself
up off the ground 'cause I don't give a shit.
They say all good things come to an end, I wish this didn't apply.
You were once someone I called my friend but that's all changed now
and I don't know why.
Things are very different now.
You've got nothing to say.
It's sad when someone you know very well decides to fucking die and go away.
It seems
to me that you couldn't care less so I'm not gonna do it anymore.
I see no reason why I've placed such a value on you,
but my thoughts have changed now,
I've opened my eyes and now I'm through.
Looking back at my short life, the few pleasures that I've found,
all your misconceptions pummel me to the ground.

Kung-Fu Devil - afi lyrics
It's said and done, there is no turning back.
I've made my choice, now I've gotta face the facts.
Within myself, the hunger won't be subdued,
because I can't have my cake and eat it too.
I'm worn down from fighting with myself.
I'll save my life and lose my mental health.
I'm wigging out, everything is turning round.
A bitter taste-no comfort can be found.
An emptiness wells inside of me, there's no filling the void that will always be.
A self-control is all I have to hold.
It's been too long.
Maybe I have been to bold.
When you're by your own
conviction discipline can be your addiction.
I'm worn down from fighting with myself.
I'll save my life and lose my mental health. I've gone
this far so I'll keep trying.
Continue to fight, I hope that I don't end up dying.
I've made my choice, now I've gotta face the facts.
Within myself, the hunger won't be subdued,
because I can't have my cake and eat it too.
I'm worn down from fighting with myself.
I'll save my life and lose my mental health.
I'm wigging out, everything is turning round.
A bitter taste-no comfort can be found.

Your Name Here - afi lyrics
It's the same old situation, it seems it's coming around again.
I won't play the fool, I'm not screwing around.
I only play to win. I only want what I deserve so who are you
trying to kid? You can call it like you see it,
but I call it like it is. I'm sick of shrugging off your petty little ways.
The names are always changing, in the end it's just a game.
We're running in a circle, a never ending chase.
You keep on stepping out of reach, but you never win the race.
No more waiting around, no more hanging around,
no more dragging me down.
Everything's so easy for you,
but I've struggled to get this far. I'm all alone in the fight.
What's wrong, who's right? I take it all to heart.
Your true colors start to show, you call yourself a friend.
The teams are drawn, you chose your side, you'll get yours in the end.
You play along to the same old song just as long as you can win.
When someone better comes along,
you're too cool to let them in.
So now I've got you wondering if I've got it in for you.
I'd like to tell you different, but I can't because it's true.
I won't play the fool, I'm not screwing around.
I only play to win. I only want what I deserve so who are you
trying to kid? You can call it like you see it,
but I call it like it is. I'm sick of shrugging off your petty little ways.
The names are always changing, in the end it's just a game.
We're running in a circle, a never ending chase.
You keep on stepping out of reach, but you never win the race.
No more waiting around, no more hanging around,
no more dragging me down.
Everything's so easy for you,
but I've struggled to get this far. I'm all alone in the fight.
What's wrong, who's right? I take it all to heart.
Your true colors start to show, you call yourself a friend.
The teams are drawn, you chose your side, you'll get yours in the end.
You play along to the same old song just as long as you can win.
When someone better comes along,
you're too cool to let them in.
So now I've got you wondering if I've got it in for you.
I'd like to tell you different, but I can't because it's true.
Ny-Quil - afi lyrics
Sleep. I want to stay in bed all throughout the day, no one bother me.
I don't wanna open my eyes.
I'll lie here in my room. I have no need to see.
No one wake me, I just want to stay right bed.
No one move me, I just want to lie right here, right in my warm bed,
because I don't want to see tomorrow.
Here I am so happy, so just leave me be.
I just want to stay.
I do not bother you, so don't you touch me.
Get the fuck away!
I don't wanna open my eyes.
I'll lie here in my room. I have no need to see.
No one wake me, I just want to stay right bed.
No one move me, I just want to lie right here, right in my warm bed,
because I don't want to see tomorrow.
Here I am so happy, so just leave me be.
I just want to stay.
I do not bother you, so don't you touch me.
Get the fuck away!
Don't Make Me Ill - afi lyrics
Right now we're got a reason to live, but it's got nothing to do with you.
We've got a lot of places we're gonna go,
a lot of things that we're gonna do.
In your world we may be no
one, but what makes you think you're someone?
We have got just what we need and we don't need you.
No one.
I can tell where our future lies, and you can tell we've got nothing to hide.
The way things seem to me right now, everything will be just time.
We're gonna do it our way.
We don't need you to darken our day.
We've never given up before and this stand won't be our first time.
No one's gonna tell me, I'm gonna do it my way.
No one's gonna tell me how to get it done.
We've got a lot of places we're gonna go,
a lot of things that we're gonna do.
In your world we may be no
one, but what makes you think you're someone?
We have got just what we need and we don't need you.
No one.
I can tell where our future lies, and you can tell we've got nothing to hide.
The way things seem to me right now, everything will be just time.
We're gonna do it our way.
We don't need you to darken our day.
We've never given up before and this stand won't be our first time.
No one's gonna tell me, I'm gonna do it my way.
No one's gonna tell me how to get it done.
High School Football Hero - afi lyrics
I wanna be a highschool football hero.
With an S.A.T. score less than zero. I wanna
try to drink my weight in beer-o. I wanna be a highschool football hero.
I wanna score a touchdown so I can score after the game.
I don't care about my future 'cause it is just another day.
I'll rush for forty yards and drink four forties later on. I'm done with
this brunette someone pass me another blonde.
Coach tells me to drink my milk and wash it down with 'roids.
I've gotta get my rest so I can
party with the boys.
My brain is upside-down, so I'm just a little slow.
I'll change my name to
Bubba so that everyone will know...
With an S.A.T. score less than zero. I wanna

Self Pity - afi lyrics
I'm always short on cash and my mind is in the trash,
can't find a way to get my head outta my ass.
I'm gettin' skinny as a bone 'cause I'm always stuck at home,
I'm livin' my life all fucked up and alone.
So once again, alone in my room,
only apparent future is my unhappy and doom.
So I just whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine,
whine, whine, whine, all the fuckin' time.
Hooked on bad caffeine, unless I get it I'm mean,
can't remember last when I was chipper and clean.
Goin' insane all I do is complain,
the only traits I show are depression and disdain.
So once again, alone in my room,
only apparent future is my unhappy and doom.
So I just whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine,
whine, whine, whine, all the fuckin' time.
The girl I love is going away, there is no way that she'll stay,
don't know how I'm gonna live my life this way.
Don't wanna have to try, I'll just sit around and cry,
maybe if I get lucky, I'll just fuckin' die!
So once again, alone in my room,
only apparent future is my unhappy and doom.
So I just whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine,
whine, whine, whine, all the fuckin' time.
And I whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine,
whine, whine, whine, all the fuckin' time.
can't find a way to get my head outta my ass.
I'm gettin' skinny as a bone 'cause I'm always stuck at home,
I'm livin' my life all fucked up and alone.
So once again, alone in my room,
only apparent future is my unhappy and doom.
So I just whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine,
whine, whine, whine, all the fuckin' time.
Hooked on bad caffeine, unless I get it I'm mean,

Goin' insane all I do is complain,
the only traits I show are depression and disdain.
So once again, alone in my room,

So I just whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine,

Don't wanna have to try, I'll just sit around and cry,
maybe if I get lucky, I'll just fuckin' die!
So once again, alone in my room,

So I just whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine,
whine, whine, whine, all the fuckin' time.
And I whine, whine, whine, whine, whine, whine,

Key Lime Pie - afi lyrics
KEY LIME PIE, infatuation that shouldn't exist,
KEY LIME PIE, indulge and I am in your debt.
KEY LIME PIE, inspire me with foolish love,
KEY LIME PIE, your green filling makes me inept.
Flaky crust is what I lust,
your fresh lime scent is a must.
Take me with coffee, never with tea,
you're the pie that pleases me.
People gawk, "Is that pie green?"
Ask for a bite, "Fuck you, i'm mean."
KEY LIME PIE, cheapest hooker I've ever had,
KEY LIME PIE, last slice gleaming, if you're out I'm mad.
KEY LIME PIE, poke fun and laugh and jest,
KEY LIME PIE, don't bother me digest, KEY LIME PIE.
KEY LIME PIE, indulge and I am in your debt.
KEY LIME PIE, inspire me with foolish love,
KEY LIME PIE, your green filling makes me inept.
Flaky crust is what I lust,
your fresh lime scent is a must.
Take me with coffee, never with tea,
you're the pie that pleases me.
People gawk, "Is that pie green?"
Ask for a bite, "Fuck you, i'm mean."

A Winter's Tale - afi lyrics
A chilling silence.
A world of violets.
My breath materialized again.
Immaculate.
Inanimate.
A comfort cutting time I see... a string of white lights.
Forever walking through December.
Forever longing for a sign of life, a bringer of light.
Forever wandering together through a world of violets.
Ice everlasting.
A full moon casting a purple veil enshrouding all.
I perambulate, somnambulant.
A solace piercing time I see... a string of white lights.
If only one for night, if only for one night, if only for one night remember.
If only for one night, if only for one night, if only for one night together.
A world of violets.
My breath materialized again.
Immaculate.
Inanimate.
A comfort cutting time I see... a string of white lights.
Forever walking through December.
Forever longing for a sign of life, a bringer of light.
Forever wandering together through a world of violets.
Ice everlasting.
A full moon casting a purple veil enshrouding all.
I perambulate, somnambulant.
A solace piercing time I see... a string of white lights.
If only one for night, if only for one night, if only for one night remember.
If only for one night, if only for one night, if only for one night together.
But Home Is Nowhere (Demo Version) - afi lyrics
Twenty-six years and, seems like i've just begun,
to understand my, my intimate is no one.
When the director sold the show, who bought its last rights?
He cut the cast, the music, and the lights.
This is my life, this is eternal.
(How did I ever wake up here?)
Discarnate, pre-natural.
(My price to disappear.)
Absent of grace, marked as infernal.
(Ungrated in dead time, and left me disowned.)
To this nature, so unnatural.
(I remain alone.)
Twenty-six years and, still speaking in these tounges.
Such revelations, went understood by no one.
When the new actor stole the show, who questioned his grace?
Please clear this house, of ill aquired taste.
This is my life, this is eternal.
(How did I ever wake up here?)
Discarnate, pre-natural.
(My price to disappear.)
Absent of grace, marked as infernal.
(Ungranted in dead time, and left and me disowned.)
To this nature, so unnatural.
(I remain alone.)
Give me, something,
Give me, something,
Give me, something,
Give me, something,
Give me, something,
Give me, something,
real.
I Lay strewn, across the floor, can't solve this puzzle.
Everyday, another small piece, can't be found.
I lay strewn, across the floor, pieced up in sorrow.
The pieces are lost, these pieces don't fit,
pieced together incomplete and empty.
This is my life, this is eternal.
(How did I ever wake up here?)
Discarnate, pre-natural.
(My price to disappear.)
Absent of grace, marked as infernal.
(Ungrated in dead time, left me disowned.)
To this nature, so unnatural.
(I remain alone.)
This is my life, this is eternal.
(How did I end up here?)
Discarnate, pre-natural.
(These are the prayers to disappear.)
Absent of grace, marked as infernal.
(Ungrated in dead time, and left me disowned.)
To this nature, so unnatural.

Chicken Song - afi lyrics
Chicken's good for the body
Chicken's good for the mind
Chicken's good for the funny bone
Chicken's easy on the eyes
Here we go
Yum-Yum chicken bone
Bock Bock Chicken
Yum-Yum chicken bone
Tell all your friends
Granola bar - nice and chewy
Granola bar - my best friend
Granola bar - how I love you
Granola bars don't beat the kids
Yum-Yum granola bar
Chew-Chew-Chewy
Yum-Yum granola bar
Tell all your friends
Chicken and granola bars make a nice meal
Especially when you're all alone
It's something to eat when your wife's in the shelter

Don't Change - afi lyrics
[Originally by INXS]
I'm standing here on the ground
The sky above won't fall down
See no evil in all direction
Resolution of happiness
Things have been dark
For too long
Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
I found a love I had lost
It was gone for too long
Hear no evil in all directions
Execution of bitterness
Message received loud and clear
Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
I'm standing here on the ground
The sky above won't fall down
See no evil in all directions
Resolution of happiness
Things have been dark for too long
Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
I'm standing here on the ground
The sky above won't fall down
See no evil in all direction
Resolution of happiness
Things have been dark
For too long
Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
I found a love I had lost
It was gone for too long
Hear no evil in all directions
Execution of bitterness
Message received loud and clear
Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
I'm standing here on the ground
The sky above won't fall down
See no evil in all directions
Resolution of happiness
Things have been dark for too long
Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me
Ether - afi lyrics
Wear your tears tonight my dear.
I'd say they truly suit you,
unimpressed and moistly dressed.
I may decide to keep you.
I open my mouth
and drink down the sea.
You'd drown in me.
If savior sleep
would cease to evade.
I'd dream it all away.
I'm caught in the fall,
when I'm awake.
I'd cede my soul to take.
I'm no one at all
and nothing's changed at all.
I open my eyes
To lovers in flames
Praying
sleep will provide
us a cool escape
I'd dream it all away.
I'm caught in the fall,
when I'm awake.
I'd cede my soul to take.
I'm no one at all
and nothing's changed at all.
I close my eyes
I close my eyes
I close my...
I'd dream it all away.
I'm caught in the fall,
when I'm awake.
I'd cede my soul to take.
I'm no one at all
and nothing's changed at all.
At all.
I'd say they truly suit you,
unimpressed and moistly dressed.
I may decide to keep you.
I open my mouth
and drink down the sea.
You'd drown in me.
If savior sleep
would cease to evade.
I'd dream it all away.
I'm caught in the fall,
when I'm awake.
I'd cede my soul to take.
I'm no one at all
and nothing's changed at all.
I open my eyes
To lovers in flames
Praying

I close my eyes
I close my...
I'd dream it all away.
I'm caught in the fall,
when I'm awake.
I'd cede my soul to take.
I'm no one at all
and nothing's changed at all.
At all.
Head Like A Hole - afi lyrics
[Originally by Nine Inch Nails]
God money i'll do anything for you.
God money just tell me what you want me to.
God money nail me up against the wall.
God money don't want everything he wants it all.
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
Bow down before the one you serve.
You're going to get what you deserve.
Bow down before the one you serve.
You're going to get what you deserve.
God money's not looking for the cure.
God money's not concerned with the sick amongst the pure.
God money let's go dancing on the backs of the bruised.
God money's not one to choose
God money i'll do anything for you.
God money just tell me what you want me to.
God money nail me up against the wall.
God money don't want everything he wants it all.
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
No you can't take it

Hearts Frozen Solid, Thawed Once More By The Spring Of Rage, Despair And Hopelessness - afi lyrics
Whoa!
I will die screaming!
Whoa!
Scream my last breath in useless anguish.
Tear the sun from the sky.
Whoa!
I will die screaming.
Whoa!

I will die screaming!
Whoa!
Scream my last breath in useless anguish.
Tear the sun from the sky.
Whoa!
I will die screaming.
Whoa!
Die screaming!
Jack The Ripper - afi lyrics
[Originally by Morrissey]
Oh, you look so tired
Mouth slack and wide
Ill-housed and ill-advised
Your face is as mean
As your life has been, so
Crash into my arms
I want you
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you
And I know a place
Where no one is likely to pass
You don't care if it's late
And, you don't care if you're lost
And oh, you look so tired
But tonight you presume too much
Too much, too much
And if it's the last thing I ever do
I’m gonna get you
Crash into my arms
I want you
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you
[2x]
Oh, you look so tired
Mouth slack and wide
Ill-housed and ill-advised
Your face is as mean
As your life has been, so
Crash into my arms
I want you
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you
And I know a place
Where no one is likely to pass
You don't care if it's late
And, you don't care if you're lost
And oh, you look so tired
But tonight you presume too much
Too much, too much
And if it's the last thing I ever do
I’m gonna get you
Crash into my arms
I want you
You don't agree
But you don't refuse
I know you

Just Like Heaven - afi lyrics
[Originally by The Cure]
Show me show me show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream she said
The one that makes me laugh she said
And threw her arms around my neck
Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I’ll run away with you
I’ll run away with you
Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
Why are you so far away? she said
Why won’t you ever know that I’m in love with you
That I’m in love with you
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You’re just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven
Show me show me show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream she said
The one that makes me laugh she said
And threw her arms around my neck
Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I’ll run away with you
I’ll run away with you
Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
Why are you so far away? she said
Why won’t you ever know that I’m in love with you
That I’m in love with you
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You’re just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven
Mini Trucks Suck - afi lyrics
Mini trucks suck. Cross the street in your mini truck. Mini trucks suck. Stupid piece of shit. Hip-hop fuck. Mini trucks suck. Cross the street in your mini truck. Mini trucks suck. Stupid piece of shit. Hip-hop... Cruising with my new whore. I'm out of beer and I need more. Marijuana has got me high. Can only be heard when I need pot. Look at me, I said you're a prick. Flip off me. You wanna suck dick? Stand right there, I'll fucking hit you. I'll take this. Hit you back, hit you back and slam right into a pole. Mini trucks suck. Cross the street in your mini truck. Mini trucks suck. Stupid piece of shit. Hip-hop fuck. Mini trucks suck. Cross the street in your mini truck. Mini trucks suck. Stupid piece of shit. Hip-hop... Like to cruise when I know I'm poor. I'm a regular at the liquor store. Max out the stereo, pump up the bass. I buy girl shit. Wanna drive in a race. Think I'd rather fuck a chump. Need my beer and a little joint. Friends are easy, don't know shit. Going down and suck, down and suck, down and suck... at least I'm getting laid. Mini trucks suck. Cross the street in your mini truck. Mini trucks suck. Stupid piece of shit. Hip-hop fuck. Mini trucks suck. Cross the street in your mini truck. Mini trucks suck. Stupid piece of shit. Hip-hop... Yeah, boy. Mini trucks suck. Cross the street in your mini truck. Mini trucks suck. Stupid piece of shit. Hip-hop fuck. Mini trucks suck. Cross the street in your mini truck. Mini trucks suck. Stupid piece of shit. Hip-hop... fuck.
Man In A Suitcase - afi lyrics
[Originally by Police]
I know something I won't tell, I won't tell, I won't tell, I know something i won't tell.
I'd invite you back to my place
I know its mine because it holds my suitcase
It looks home to me all right
But it's a hundred miles from yesterday night
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Another key for my collection
For security I race for my connection
Bird in a flying cage you'll never get to know me well
The world's my oyster, a hotel room's a prison cell
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
Must I be the man in a suitcase
I'd invite you back to my place
I know its mine because it holds my suitcase
It looks like home to me all right
But it's a hundred miles from yesterday night
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man in a suitcase
I know something I won't tell, I won't tell, I won't tell, I know something i won't tell.
I'd invite you back to my place
I know its mine because it holds my suitcase
It looks home to me all right
But it's a hundred miles from yesterday night
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Another key for my collection
For security I race for my connection
Bird in a flying cage you'll never get to know me well
The world's my oyster, a hotel room's a prison cell
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
Must I be the man in a suitcase
I'd invite you back to my place
I know its mine because it holds my suitcase
It looks like home to me all right
But it's a hundred miles from yesterday night
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man with the stranger's face
Must I be the man in a suitcase
Is it me, the man in a suitcase
My Michelle - afi lyrics
[Originally by Guns N' Roses]
Your daddy works in porno
Now that mommy's not around
She used to love her heroin
But now she's underground
So you stay out late at night
And you do your coke for free
Drivin' your friends crazy
With your life's insanity
Well, well, well you just can't tell
Well, well, well my Michelle
Sowin' all your wild oats
In another's luxuries
Yesterday was Tuesday
Maybe Thursday you can sleep
But school starts much too early
And this hotel wasn't free
So party till your connection call
Baby I'll return the key
[Chorus:]
Well, well, well you just can't tell
Well, well, well my Michelle
Well, well, well you never can tell
Well, well, well my Michelle
Everyone needs love
You know that it's true
Someday you'll find someone
That'll fall in love with you
But oh the time it takes
When you're all alone
Someday you'll find someone
That you can call your own
But till then ya better...
Now you're clean
And so discreet
I won't say a word
But most of all this song is true
Case you haven't heard
So c'mon and stop your whinin'
'Cause we both know money burns
Honey don't stop tryin;
An you'll get what you deserve
[Chorus]

On The Arrow - afi lyrics
He said, "Who truly belongs here?"
Not I she said, I'll lie here with you
He knows no one shines forever
They change with the weather
He said, "I've now stayed too long here"
Good bye she said, I'll wait here for you
He knows the winds carry sorrow
As they leave she'll follow
They leave tomorrow
Fragments of joy torn apart
A freshly drained heart that beats
Disguise themselves through him
He'll say that it's nothing new
And swear this is true,
for you, I'll swallow the ocean
I'll swallow the ocean
He said, "Who truly belongs here?"
Not I she said, I'll lie here to you
I know the sorrow is sacred
And I'll never break you
I'll softly save you
Fragments of joy torn apart
A freshly drained heart that beats
Disguise themselves through him
He'll say that it's nothing new
And swear this is true,
for you, I'll swallow the ocean
I'll swallow the ocean
Not I she said, I'll lie here with you
He knows no one shines forever
They change with the weather
He said, "I've now stayed too long here"
Good bye she said, I'll wait here for you
He knows the winds carry sorrow
As they leave she'll follow
They leave tomorrow
Fragments of joy torn apart
A freshly drained heart that beats
Disguise themselves through him
He'll say that it's nothing new
And swear this is true,
for you, I'll swallow the ocean
I'll swallow the ocean
He said, "Who truly belongs here?"
Not I she said, I'll lie here to you
I know the sorrow is sacred
And I'll never break you
I'll softly save you
Fragments of joy torn apart
A freshly drained heart that beats
Disguise themselves through him
He'll say that it's nothing new
And swear this is true,
for you, I'll swallow the ocean
I'll swallow the ocean
Paper Airplanes (Makeshift Wings) (Demo Version) - afi lyrics
Raise high, monolithic, statues so fragile as they fall.
(I am, ever enthralled)
Gaze, lie and smirk in time, your arrogance will suit you well.
('Till fashion is dispelled)
As waves of plastic fame go out of fashion,
You're going out, going out forever unknown.
These waves of plastic fame go out of fashion.
(These waves of plastic fame are drying up and I smile)
You're going out, going out forever unknown
(Because you're dying to become forever unknown, unknown)
From above a rain of ashes descends
Anathema I will remain, forever will remain
From below, in my seclusion
Look up to the sky to see paper wings and watch them burn
Without habitation, you'll never find a soul inside
No life, but nothing's died
No lights, but quite the show (Just as long as no one ever knows
All motion is pantomime)
As waves of plastic fame go out of fashion
You're going out, going out forever unknown
These waves of plastic fame go out of fashion
(These waves of plastic fame are drying up and I smile)
You're going out, going out forever unknown
(Because you're dying to become forever unknown, unknown)
From above a rain of ashes descends
Anathema I will remain, forever will remain
From below, in my seclusion
Look up to the sky to see paper wings and watch them burn
Dancing in the rain of descending ash
Dancing on your grave, I'll see you all falling
Dancing in the rain of descending ash
Dancing in your dust, I'll see you all falling
I'd stop it, had you a heart (your heart)
I'd stop it, had you a heart (your heart)
From above a rain of ashes descends
Anathema I will remain, forever will remain
From below, in my seclusion
Look up to the sky to see paper wings and watch them burn
From above a rain of ashes descends
Anathema I will remain, forever will remain
From below, in my seclusion
Look up to the sky to see paper wings and watch them burn
(I am, ever enthralled)

Rabbits Are Roadkill On Rt. 37 - afi lyrics
What once did exist, now is meaningless
And doesn't it seem funny, how soon you did forget
([ECHO:] how soon you did forget)
All the words have now lost their weight
But I remember, I remember
Desperation, devastation
All I truly know (all that I know...)
Is isolation
Self damnation
All life that I'd own
WAS SHED AND WORTHLESS NOW!
What I knew was wrong
One who lived is gone
Guess it was just an echo
When you would sing my song
(ECHO: you would sing my song)
All the notes you'd forgotten now
You left abandoned, I remember
Desperation, devastation
All I truly know (all that I know...)
Is isolation
Self Damnation
All life that I'd own
WAS SHED AND WORTHLESS NOW!
I can
hate myself
more...
more than anyone
WILL YOU JOIN ME!?
I KNOW YOU KNOW THAT THIS
TORTURES ME!
HAVE I CREATED THE SUFFERING!?
SHOW ME!
Or do you happily cut, further in?
to sever what's left inside, that binds me.
Now all i feel is
Desperation, devastation
All I truly know (all that I know...)
Is isolation
Self damnation
All life that I'd own
WAS SHED AND WORTHLESS NOW!
Desperation, devastation

Red Hat - afi lyrics
I'm on the sea so bargain with me, so I can be home once again.
to lose ways, to sing, an odd time of death, to lose and not to win.
Why must I, always have to lose with an easy life?
Why cant I, just pretend to fall asleep? No longing goes through the night.
Caroline was greater for breaking down the set, wanting to find a look.
Can’t remember days, the days we posses, only the day she left.
I see her in the crucifix, my mind begins to slip.
My love had fallen right to a T.
Then I close my eyes and the tears begin to run, the nightmare has just begun.

[Spoken Intro]: "Last night...last night, Mom fainted. I sat there watching,
I sat there waiting, and cringing. And I cried, I cried at the sound, the
sound of whispering white Angels. Oh, where only I seem innocent."

Your heartbreak please let me be, enjoying your pain.
Some day, I will be, i'll be the common voice for community.
Because I may well forever be, the lonelyness you feel.
Please let me haunt as scent on your pillow,
letters of past, so distant and wrinkled.

letters of past, so distant and wrinkled.
Please let me haunt as scent on your pillow,
letters of past, so distant and wrinkled.
Just say,
say you will, follow me.
(follow me)
Invite me to your memory.
Just sing,
sing again, for me.
(for me)
That long forgotten song.
Heartbreak, incarnate, i'm nothing if not your memories.
Your heartbreak, please let me be, enjoying your pain.
Someday I will be, i'll be that what you want from a failing dream.
Because I may, I may at best, feel as low as you feel.
Please let me haunt as scent on your pillow,
letters of past, so distant and wrinkled.
Please let me haunt as scent on your pillow,
letters of past, so distant and wrinkled.
Just say,
say you will, follow me.
(follow me)
Invite me to your memory.
Just sing,
sing again, for me.
(for me)
That long forgotten song.
Just say,
say you will, follow me.
(follow me)
Invite me to your memory.
Just sing,
sing again, for me.
(for me)
That long forgotten song.
Let me be all the words, let me be all the words,
let me be all the words, let me be all the words.
Let me be all the words, echo in comoft.
Let me feel the words, that you'd unsay.
Let me be all the words, echo in comfort.
comfort, comfort, comfort.
Let me feel the words, that you'd unsay.
unsay, unsay, unsay.
Let me be all the words, echo in comoft.
Let me feel the words, that you'd unsay.
Let me be all the words, echo in comfort.
comfort, comfort.
Let me feel the words, that you'd unsay.
unsay, unsay, unsay.
The Great Disappointment (Demo Version) - afi lyrics
I can remember, a place I used to go.
Crysanthemums of White, they seemed so beautiful.
I can remember, searched for the Amaranth.
I'd shut my eyes, to see.
Oh how I smiled then, so near the cherrished ones.
I knew they would appear, saw not a single one.
Oh how I smiled then, waiting so patiently.
I'd make a wish, and bleed.
While I waited,
I was wasting away.
While I waited,
I was wasting away.
I can remember, dremt them so vividly.
Soft creatures draped in white, light kisses gracing me.
I can remember, when I first realized,
dreams were the only place, to see them.
While I waited,
I was wasting away.
While I waited,
I was wasting away.
While I waited,
I was wasting away,
hope was wasting away,
faith was wasting away,
I was wasting away.
Never never wanted this, always wanted to believe, never never wanted this.
(I will not live on)
Never never wanted this, from the start i'd been decieved, never never wanted this.
(I will not live on)
Never never wanted this, always wanted to believe, never never wanted this all.
Never ever wanted this, from the start i'd been decieved, never never wanted this all.
Inside a crumbling effigy.
(But you promised)
So died all innocence.
(But you promised)
Me.
While I waited,
I was wasting away.
While I waited,
I was wasting away.
While I waited,
I was wasting away,
hope was wasting away,
faith was wasting away,
I was wasting away.
Crysanthemums of White, they seemed so beautiful.
I can remember, searched for the Amaranth.
I'd shut my eyes, to see.
Oh how I smiled then, so near the cherrished ones.
I knew they would appear, saw not a single one.
Oh how I smiled then, waiting so patiently.
I'd make a wish, and bleed.
While I waited,
I was wasting away.
While I waited,
I was wasting away.
I can remember, dremt them so vividly.
Soft creatures draped in white, light kisses gracing me.
I can remember, when I first realized,
dreams were the only place, to see them.
While I waited,
I was wasting away.
While I waited,
I was wasting away.
While I waited,
I was wasting away,
hope was wasting away,
faith was wasting away,
I was wasting away.
Never never wanted this, always wanted to believe, never never wanted this.
(I will not live on)
Never never wanted this, from the start i'd been decieved, never never wanted this.

The Leaving Song (Demo Version) - afi lyrics
Walked away, heard them say, "poison hearts will never change, walk away, again."
Turned away, in disgrace, felt the chill upon my face, cooling from, within.
Hard to notice, gleaming from the sky, when you're staring at, the cracks.
Hard to notice, what is passing by, with eyes lowered.
You, walked away, heard them say, "poison hearts will never change, walk away, again."
All the cracks they lead, right to me.
And, all the cracks, they'll crawl right through me.
All the cracks, they'll lead right to me.
And, all the cracks, they'll crawl right through me.
And I fell apart.
As I, walked away, heard them say, "poison hearts will never change, walk away again."
Turned away, in disgrace, felt the chill upon my face, cooling from within.
Turned away, in disgrace, felt the chill upon my face, cooling from, within.
Hard to notice, gleaming from the sky, when you're staring at, the cracks.
Hard to notice, what is passing by, with eyes lowered.
You, walked away, heard them say, "poison hearts will never change, walk away, again."
All the cracks they lead, right to me.
And, all the cracks, they'll crawl right through me.
All the cracks, they'll lead right to me.
And, all the cracks, they'll crawl right through me.
And I fell apart.
As I, walked away, heard them say, "poison hearts will never change, walk away again."
Turned away, in disgrace, felt the chill upon my face, cooling from within.
This Celluloid Dream (Demo Version) - afi lyrics
Calling tears from deep inside, oh, you're so exquisite.
And in the mirror, all midnight eyes.
Oh, if I could remain, but it's just a visit
All midnight eyes, read "vacancy."
Twisting,
twisting.
To the lovely dancing lights, I begged, "May I cut in?"
But they never stopped, playing their song.
Of a joyous song they sing, I've heard whispers.
On a freezing note, I resonate.
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end,
just like a memory, it twists me.
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end,
twist.. twisting me.
You land as lightly, as the new snow,
(Cinematic)
onto the melting boy.
(and melt away)
You light as gently, you're so.
(Cinematic)
Bathed in your radiance, I melt.
Oh.
In the glitter, in the dark, sunk into velvet,
Praying this will never end.
In the shadow of a star, in static pallor,
I realized I never began.
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end,
just like a memory, it twists me.
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end,
twist.. twisting me.
You land as lightly, as the new snow,
(Cinematic)
onto the melting boy.
(and melt away)
You light as gently, you're so.
(Cinematic)
Bathed in your radiance, I melt.
All the colors, upon leaving, all will turn to Grey.
All the colors, upon leaving, all will turn to Grey.
(All Grey)
All the colors,
(All Grey)
upon leaving,
(All Grey)
all will turn to Grey.
(All Grey)
All the colours,
(All Grey)
upon leaving
(All Grey)
all will turn to Grey.
Grey.
Twisting me
You land as lightly, as the new snow,
(Cinematic)
onto the melting boy.
(and melt away)
light as gently, you're so.
(Cinematic)
Bathed in your radiance.
You land as lightly, as the new snow,
(Cinematic)
onto the melting boy.
(and melt away)
You light as gently, you're so.
(Cinematic)
Bathed in your radiance, I melt.
And in the mirror, all midnight eyes.
Oh, if I could remain, but it's just a visit
All midnight eyes, read "vacancy."
Twisting,

Transference - afi lyrics
No room for doubt
accusations one to ten,
You've got my number boy
you've got my number boy,
No wasting time
now, you've got me dialed,
I'm one hundred eleven
less than perfection
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (keep your disease)
sealed lips will not cease the calling (your disease),
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (no shame)
sealed lips will not cease the calling
Pathetic eyes
complimenting what's inside,
I've got your number boy
I've got your number boy,
So appalled
as I watch you purge,
Now see if your fiction
reads salvation
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (keep your disease)
sealed lips will not cease the calling (your disease),
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (no shame)
sealed lips will not cease the calling
No room for doubt
no pity is deserved,
You've got my number boy
you've got my number boy,
Coincidence
you've assessed correct,
I'm one hundred eleven
less than perfection
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (keep your disease)
sealed lips will not cease the calling (your disease),
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (no shame)
sealed lips will not cease the calling
accusations one to ten,
You've got my number boy
you've got my number boy,
No wasting time
now, you've got me dialed,
I'm one hundred eleven
less than perfection
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (keep your disease)
sealed lips will not cease the calling (your disease),
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (no shame)
sealed lips will not cease the calling
Pathetic eyes
complimenting what's inside,
I've got your number boy
I've got your number boy,
So appalled
as I watch you purge,
Now see if your fiction
reads salvation
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (keep your disease)
sealed lips will not cease the calling (your disease),
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (no shame)
sealed lips will not cease the calling
No room for doubt
no pity is deserved,
You've got my number boy
you've got my number boy,
Coincidence
you've assessed correct,
I'm one hundred eleven
less than perfection
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (keep your disease)
sealed lips will not cease the calling (your disease),
Pride has faltered now you're left crawling (no shame)
sealed lips will not cease the calling
Values Here - afi lyrics
[Originally by Dag Nasty]
What'd you say
When I said we'll be here through tomorrow
In my heart and in my head
Fear of failure
Fear of reprimand
Two big problems
I've never had
I never doubted what I had inside...what I have inside
Values here in my heart
And we'll be here through tomorrow
Every day's a brand new start
Fear of failure
Fear of reprimand
Two big problems I've never had
I never doubted what I had inside...what I have inside
Fear of failure
Fear of reprimand
Two big problems I've never had
I never doubted what I had inside...what I have inside
What'd you say
When I said we'll be here through tomorrow
In my heart and in my head
Fear of failure
Fear of reprimand
Two big problems
I've never had
I never doubted what I had inside...what I have inside
Values here in my heart
And we'll be here through tomorrow
Every day's a brand new start
Fear of failure
Fear of reprimand
Two big problems I've never had
I never doubted what I had inside...what I have inside
Fear of failure
Fear of reprimand
Two big problems I've never had
I never doubted what I had inside...what I have inside
Who Knew? - afi lyrics
Every single notion burned indelibly.
Every motion leaving scars behind.
All sincere emotion received skeptically with no preparation for life eternal.
Every tear that's fallen brings one thousand floods.
Paper cuts are leaving blood behind.
All the silent laughter ringing piercingly.
I blink making my eyes mine.
Words in their worthlessness, they should be weighted down, but do I truly wish their cessation?
Every motion leaving scars behind.
All sincere emotion received skeptically with no preparation for life eternal.
Every tear that's fallen brings one thousand floods.
Paper cuts are leaving blood behind.
All the silent laughter ringing piercingly.
I blink making my eyes mine.
Words in their worthlessness, they should be weighted down, but do I truly wish their cessation?
