Billy Talent

A devil in a midnight mass,
He prayed behind stained glass.
A memory of Sunday class,
Resurrected from the past.

Hold your breath and count to four
Pinky swears don't work no more
Footsteps down the hallway floor,
Getting closer to my door
I was alive, but now I'm singing...

Silent night... for the rest of my life.
Silent night... for the rest of my life.
Violent knight... till at the edge of your knife.
"Forgive me Father"... won't make it right.
Silent night... for the rest of my life.
Silent night... at the edge of your knife.
You're guilty!

A devil in a midnight mass
Killed the boy inside the man
The holy water in his hands
Can never wash away his sins

Hold your breath and count to four
Pinky swears don't work no more
Put my trust in God that day
Not the man that taught his way
I was alive, but now I'm singing...

Whisper, whisper... don't make a sound.
Your bed is made; it's in the ground
Whisper, whisper... don't make a sound.
Your bed is made; it's in the ground
Whisper, whisper... don't make a sound.
Your bed is made; it's in the ground
Whisper, whisper... don't make a sound.
Your bed is made; it's in the ground
Whisper, whisper... don't make a sound.
Your bed is made; it's in the ground
Whisper, whisper... don't make a sound.
Your bed is made; it's in the ground

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag wavin' never meant the same,
The kids of tomorrow don't need today,
When they live in the Sins of Yesterday.

Well I've never seen us act like this,
Our only hope is in minds of kids,
And they'll show us a thing or two.

Our only weapons are the guns of youth,
It's only time before they tighten the noose,
And then the hunt will be on for you.

We dont need them
(Music break 10 Seconds)

(Chorus x2)
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag wavin never meant the same,
The kids of tomorrow don't need today,
When they live in the Sins of Yesterday.

Like the smallest bee packs a sting,
Like the pawn checkmates a king,
We'll attack at the crack of dawn.

Build a ladder if there's a wall,
Don't be afraid to slip and fall,
Speak for yourself or they'll speak for you.

We dont need them.
(music break 10 seconds)

(Chorus x2)
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag wavin never meant the same,
The kids of tomorrow don't need today,
When they live in the Sins of Yesterday.

(Music Break 11 seconds)

Like a fire,
Don't need water,
Like a jury,
Needs a liar,
Like a riot,
Don't need order,
Like a madman,
Needs a martyr.

We don't need them.(x8)

(Chorus x2)
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag wavin never meant the same,
The kids of tomorrow don't need today,
When they live in the Sins of Yesterday.

(Chorus x1) with "We don't need them."(x9)

Like a dagger drawn across my chest,
Shoots a bullet in Russian roulette,
You said you'd never turn your back on me,
Rescue me, rescue me,
Would you stand by me and bury me?
Bury me,
Why don't we end this lie,
I can't pretend this time,
I need a friend to find my broken mind,
Before it falls to pieces!!

Every time you try to leave me blind,
You'll never close my eyes,
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die!!

And when she spins the bottle round and round,
Every time it leaves me kept and bound,
You said you'd never turn your back on me,
Rescue me, rescue me,
Would you stand by me and bury me?
Bury me,
Why don't we end this lie,
I can't pretend this time,
I need a friend to find my broken mind,
Before it falls to pieces!!

End this lie I cant pretend,
This time I need a friend to find my broken mind,
Before it falls to pieces,
Every time you try to leave me blind,
You'll never close my eyes,
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die!!

Misery won't get the best of me,
Cause now I'm calling, yes I'm calling on your bluff!!

Misery won't get the best of me,
Cause now I'm calling, yes I'm calling on your bluff!!

Don't tell your lies I've had enough!!!

Why don't we end this lie,
I can't pretend this time,
I need a friend to find my broken mind,
Before it falls to pieces,
Every time you try to leave me blind,
You'll never close my eyes,
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die,

End this lie I cant pretend,
This time I need a friend to find my broken mind,
Before it falls to pieces!!

Every time you try to leave me blind,
You'll never close my eyes,
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die!!

March on, worker bees!
Know your enemy!

We take our orders given by the queen
We're not the killers, we're the worker bees
If you resist us you will feel our sting
Surrender now before the swarm sets in

Protect the hive from enemies!
Protect the hive from enemies!
Follow the herd mentality!
Can we fight to save our souls?

March on, worker bees!
Know your enemy!

A pollination coming from the west,
And in a flash we will invade your nest
Supply of honey flowing bottomless
Play by our rules or you'll be powerless

Protect the hive from enemies!
Protect the hive from enemies!
Follow the herd mentality!
Can we fight to save our souls?

And we'll march... along, with our blindfolds on
And we'll ride... the rails, with our pistols drawn
Can the Lord... above, forgive what we've done?
Can we fight to save our souls?

And we'll march... along, with our blindfolds on
And we'll ride... the rails, with our pistols drawn
Can the Lord... above, forgive what we've done?
Can we fight to save our souls?

Can we fight to save our souls?
Will we die to save our home?

Never understood how she could,
Mean so little to so many
Why does she mean everything to me?

Is it worth the pain, with no one to blame?
For all of my insecurities
How did I ever let you go?

Questioning her good intention
Jealousy’s a bad invention
When you push on glass, it’s bound to break

Even when she was defensive,
It just gave me more incentive
The more you squeeze, the more it slips away

I never walked so far on a lonely street
With no-one there for me
Is it worth the pain, with no one to blame?
For all of my insecurities
How did I ever let you go?

Accept this confession! …I’m walking on pins and needles
You’re not my possession! …I’m walking on pins and needles
My conscience is vicious! …I’m walking on pins and needles
And I’m begging forgiveness! …I’m walking on pins and needles

I never walked so far on a lonely street,
With no one there for me
It took too long to see her in misery
And now it’s clear to me

That it’s worth the pain, always take the blame
For all your own insecurities
How did I ever let you go?

In a crooked little town
they were lost and never found
Fallen leaves fallen leaves
fallen leaves on the ground

I hitched a ride until the coast
To leave behind all of my ghosts
Searching for something
I couldn't find at home
Can't get no job
can you spare a dime
Just one more hit
and I'll be fine
I swear to God this
I'll be my one last time
In a crooked little town
they were lost and never found
Fallen leaves fallen leaves
fallen leaves on the ground
Run away before you drown
or the streets will beat you down
Fallen leaves fallen leaves
fallen leaves on the ground

When it gets dark in Pigeon Park
Voice in my head will soon be fed
By the vultures
that circle round the dead
In a crooked little town
they were lost and never found
Fallen leaves fallen leaves
fallen leaves on the ground
Run away before you drown
or the streets will beat you down
Fallen leaves fallen leaves
fallen leaves on the ground

I never once thought
I'd ever be caught
Staring at sidewalks
hiding my track marks
I left my best friends
or did they just leave me

In a crooked little town
they were lost and never found
Fallen leaves fallen leaves
fallen leaves on the ground
In a crooked little town
they were lost and never found
Fallen leaves fallen leaves
fallen leaves on the ground
Run away before you drown
or the streets will beat you down
Fallen leaves fallen leaves
fallen leaves on the ground
Run away before you drown
Fallen leaves fallen leaves
fallen leaves on the ground
Run away before you drown
Fallen leaves fallen leaves
fallen leaves on the ground

Urban Hipster, the new gangster... frontin' by the club
New wave mannequins packin' haircuts, instead of packin' guns
Magazines form overseas, won't teach you how to feel
They trade in their hearts for indie rock charts to tell them what is real

When did they assume... putting on a costume?
Gave them a right to... ostracize
Out of the woodwork... art aficionados
Answer one question...

Where is the line? Where is the line?
Between your fashion and your mind
Where is the line? Where is the line?
'Cause some of us aren't blind!
Where is the line? Where is the line?
To be your self is not a crime
Where is the Line? Where is the line?
'Cause some of us aren't blind!
She sells street cred with no smile, at the local record store
She's acting the role and dressing the part, pretending to be bored
The truth about conformity, is it bites without a sting
Trends come and go, but when your alone it doesn't mean a thing

When did they assume... putting on a costume?
Gave them a right to... ostracize
Out of the woodwork... art aficionados
Answer one question...

Where is the line? Where is the line?
Between your fashion and your mind
Where is the line? Where is the line?
'Cause some of us aren't blind!
Where is the line? Where is the line?
To be your self is not a crime
Where is the Line? Where is the line?
'Cause some of us aren't blind!

Here today, but forgotten tomorrow!
Here today, but forgotten tomorrow!
Here today, but forgotten tomorrow!

Twisted tongues will place you in a category
Face to face you'll hear them tell a different story
Loose lips may sink ship, but honesty's forever
I solve and think pull and try to sever

Cowards! They hide behind their words!
Don't care if feeling will get hurt
Beware the voice without a face
That's hidden underneath a

[Chorus:]
Covered In Cowardice! (Can't you see me?!)
Covered In Cowardice! (Can't you hear me?!)
Beware the voice without a face
That's hidden underneath a
Covered In Cowardice! (Can't You see me?!)
Covered In Cowardice! (Can't you hear me?!)
Cowards! They hide behind their words!
Don't care if feeling will get hurt

There eyes are blinded by there rage
Beware the voice without a face

When your insecure, they'll find a fuel to start a fire
Better pricks? with only hatred to inspire

Level heads pray there revenge will make it better
Trust your instinct like you trust what's in the mirror

Cowards! They hide behind their words!
Don't care if feeling will get hurt
Beware the voice without a face
That's hidden underneath a

[Chorus:Repeat x2]

A voice without a face!
A voice without a face!

She reads a book from across the street,
Waiting for someone that she'll never meet
Talk over coffee for an hour or two,
She wonders why I'm always in a good mood

Killing time before she struts her stuff,
She needs support and I've become the crutch
She'll never know how much she means to me,
I'd play the game but I'm the referee

Surrender창?짝 every word, every thought, every sound
Surrender창?짝 every touch, every smile, every frown
Surrender창?짝 all the pain we've endured until now
Surrender창?짝 all the hope that I lost, you have found
Surrender창?짝 yourself to me

Even though I know what I'm looking for,
She's got a brick wall behind her door
I'd travel time and confess to her,
But I'm afraid she'd shoot the messenger

Surrender창?짝 every word, every thought, every sound
Surrender창?짝 every touch, every smile, every frown
Surrender창?짝 all the pain we've endured until now
Surrender창?짝 all the hope that I lost, you have found
Surrender창?짝 yourself to me

I think I found a flower in a field of weeds,
I think I found a flower in a field of weeds
Searching until my hands bleed,
This flower don't belong to me
This flower don't belong to me
Why can't she belong to me?

Surrender창?짝 every word, every thought, every sound
Surrender창?짝 every touch, every smile, every frown
Surrender창?짝 all the pain we've endured until now
Surrender창?짝 all the hope that I lost, you have found
Surrender창?짝 yourself to me

I never had the nerve to ask,
Has my moment come and passed?

All we shared was a mattress, and a lie, and an address
Baby I don't need you, well baby I don't need you
Once occupied by a goddess, now it's a room full of boxes
She said, "it's time to leave you" but baby I don't need you!

In a perfect world... her face would not exist
In a perfect world... a broken heart is fixed
In a perfect world... I'd see no therapist
In a perfect world... this wouldn't make me sick

I never got the whole story, not 'til after she left me
Baby I don't need you, well baby I don't need you
Word on the street is she fucked him, while we were playing in Cleveland
Well baby I don't need you, you're fading in my rearview

In a perfect world... her face would not exist
In a perfect world... a broken heart is fixed
In a perfect world... I'd see no therapist
In a perfect world... this wouldn't make me sick

She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click!
She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click!
In a perfect world... her face would not exist
In a perfect world... this wouldn't make me sick!

Control-Alt-Deleted
Control-Alt-Deleted
Control-Alt-Deleted
Reset my memory!

In a perfect world... her face would not exist
In a perfect world... a broken heart is fixed
In a perfect world... I'd see no therapist
In a perfect world... this wouldn't make me sick

She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click!
She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click!
She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click!
She pulls the trigger until the gun goes...

A slap in the face,
And I can't erase,
These things that you say,
Don't make it all okay, it's not okay

When push comes to shove,
I'll put on the gloves,
Intentions are cruel,
I ain't nobody's fool you know

It hurts, my pride, step aside,
'Cause I don't need your...

Sympathy
Won't get the best of me!
Misery
That's what you're giving me!
Sympathy
It's just like trickery!
Breaking me down

A fistful of lies,
Dressed up in disguise,
And make no mistake,
I know they're all so fake, they're all so fake
My self-righteous friend,
I just can't pretend,
Your words are the truth,
Sincere only when they suit you

It hurts, my pride, step aside,
'Cause I don't need your...

Sympathy!
Won't get the best of me
Misery!
That's what your giving me
Sympathy!
It's just like trickery
Breaking me down

Sympathy
Won't get the best of me!
Misery
This shit is killing me!
Sympathy
It's just like trickery!
Breaking me down

Breaking me down

In a garage, beside a house, there is a luxury sedan
And for his next monthly installment,
He's gonna go out with a bang!

Boy who always did what he was told,
Was promised to be king when he was old

Hit the brakes, hit the glass,
Time to shake the hands of fate
The mistakes of the past,
Flashed before his face

There is a man, intensive care
When he awakes he will declare,
"I've been dead for twenty years!
I won't let twenty more go by"
Boy who always did what he was told,
Bought the only dream that he was sold

Hit the brakes, hit the glass,
Time to shake the hands of fate
The mistakes of the past,
Flashed before his face

Burn the evidence, of my existence,
Clear the ashes on the ground
Burn the evidence, of all these things,
That pull my spirit down

Ever feel like you've been cheated,
Following what they believe?
Don't shake the hands of fate,
Don't shake the hands of fate,
There's no more time to waste!

Burn the evidence, of my existence,
Clear the ashes on the ground
Burn the evidence, of all these things,
That pull my spirit down

Burn the evidence!
Don't shake the hands of fate,
There's no more time to waste!

Everybody is tired and poor and sick of trying
If you see me on the corner
Will you stop or will you splash me
Take a look at what we've become
Nothing more than silhouettes of
A pretty family on a postcard
Picture perfect, I don't want it

So I hold my breath 'til my heart explodes
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes
You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes


Shitty weather, bad timing
Lucky penny glued to the ground
Dirty look from total stranger
Hope you get lost and you're not found
Take a look at what we've become
Nothing more than silhouettes of
A pretty family on a postcard
Picture perfect, I don't want it

So I hold my breath 'til my heart explodes
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes
You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul
Cause this is how it is and this is how it...

This is, how it, it goes
This is, how it, it goes
This is, how it, it goes
This is, how it, it goes

So unscrew my head
And rinse it out
Polish my thoughts
Turn into doubts
Unscrew my head
And rinse it out
Polish my thoughts
Turn into doubts
Turn 'em into, turn 'em into doubts

So I hold my breath 'til my heart explodes
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes
You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes

Constant quick fixes, don't make no sense
Hop on bandwagons, you make me sick

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
(When you're living in the shadows)
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
(When you're living in the shadows)
<i>[x2]</i>

Distant loud chuckles, keep me awake
Awkward instances won't make you hip

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
(When you're living in the shadows)
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
(When you're living in the shadows)
<i>[x2]</i>

We've said this all before, your shadow's at the door
We've said this all before, your shadow's at the door
There's darkness in the hall and we won't take the fall!
And we won't take the fall!

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
(When you're living in the shadows)
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
(When you're living in the shadows)
<i>[x4]</i>

<i>[Note: There are (at least) 2 versions of this song, one seems to be a demo version, the other the CD version. This is the actual CD version lyrics:]</i>

Well I tripped, I fell down naked
Well I scratched my knees, they bled
Sew up my eyes, need no more
In our game there is no score

Forgive me father, why should you bother?
Try honesty, Try honesty
Hop in your dumptruck, reverse for good luck
Ride over me, Ride over me
Take on the whole world, fight with the young girls
Die tragedy, Die tragedy
Call me a cheapskate, come on for pete's sake
Cry Agony, Cry agony

I'm insane, it's your fault, so sly
Your well of lies ran dry
And I cut the cord, free fall
From so high we seem so small'

Forgive me father, why should you bother?
Try honesty, Try honesty
Hop in your dumptruck, reverse for good luck
Ride over me, Ride over me
Take on the whole world, fight with the young girls
Die tragedy, Die tragedy
Call me a cheapskate, come on for pete's sake
Cry Agony, Cry Agony

I talk to you

I'm insane, it's your fault
Try
I'm insane, it's your fault
Cry
I'm insane, it's your fault
Cry

Forgive me father, why should you bother now?
Forgive me father, why should you bother now?

Forgive me father, why should you bother?
Try honesty, Try honesty
Hop in your dumptruck, reverse for good luck
Ride over me, Ride over me
Take on the whole world, fight with the young girls
Die tragedy, Die Tragedy
Call me a cheapskate, come on for pete's sake
Cry Agony, Cry Agony

Cry Agony, Cry Agony
Try honesty, Try Honesty
Cry Agony, Cry Agony

<i>[The demo version is pretty much the same except for the part "I'm insane, it's your fault" is instead "Insane, Assault", and the part "I cut the chord, free fall", is "I pulled the chord, free fall". As well in the first chorus, only the first 2 lines are said.]</i>

What you see is what you get (don't ya know)
(Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker)
Look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
(Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers)
What you see is what you get (don't ya know)
(Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker)
Look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
(Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers)

Today I don't feel pretty
And I'm tired of trying to fit right in
Don't think that your so great
'Cause being great must suck

We don't always see the bright side
We all need ego suicide
You hung my head today
But I have licked my wounds and carried on

Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss my chimney
Reality is truly scaring me
So stand up straight and firmly say

What you see is what you get (don't ya know)
(Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker)
Look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
(Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers)
What you see is what you get (don't ya know)
(Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker)
Look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
(Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers)

My heart is in the right place
So wipe that smirk right off your face
Don't make me feel like that
Cause that's just plain not nice

We don't always see the bright side
And I lied when I said I was fine
You slapped my face today
But I have licked my wounds and carried on

Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss my chimney
Reality is truly scaring me
So stand up straight and firmly say

What you see is what you get (don't ya know)
(Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker)
Look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
(Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers)
What you see is what you get (don't ya know)
(Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker)
Look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
(Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers)

Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss my chimney
You stole my luck from me
And now my fortune cookie's empty!
Cause you came and you stole it all from me!
So stand up straight and firmly say

What you see is what you get (don't ya know)
(Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker)
Look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)
(Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers)
What you see is what you get (don't ya know)
(Fishing for the answer with a line and sinker)
Look at me and don't forget (don't ya know)

False Conversation
Hidden agendum
You think we're stupid, how dare you
The rug has not been pulled
Over our eyes you fool
We can see right through

Tip-toeing villian
Eyes in the ceiling
Your false intentions have warn thin
But we've been in your room and in your closet too
We've got one on you

Lies make it better
Lies are forever
Lies to go home to
Lies you wake up to
Lies from the alter
Lies make you falter
Lies keep your mouth fed
Lies till your death bed
Lies

Inside an office, a fallen angel
A smilin boomer with snake eyes
Creates the latest trends
And i just cant pretend
Dont call me your friend

When all these
Lies make it better
Lies are forever
Lies to go home to
Lies you wake up to
Lies from the alter
Lies make you falter
Lies keep your mouth fed
Lies till your death bed

Lies they make it better
Lies they are forever
Lies to go home to
Lies you wake up to
Lies from the alter
Lies make you falter
Lies keep your mouth fed
Lies till your death bed
LIES!

Lies will come back to haunt you
Bulletproof your limosine
Lies will come back to haunt you
Hit and run, a broken dream

Lies make it better
Lies are forever
Lies to go home to
Lies to wake up to
Lies from the altar
Lies make you falter
Lies keep your mouth fed
Lies till your death bed

Lies they make it better
Lies they are forever
Lies to go home to
Lies you wake up to
Lies from the alter
Lies make you falter
Lies keep your mouth fed
Lies till your death bed

Lies

when i looked at her face
and i know that she'd changed
your my all time plack
then the sky turned grey
your my all time plack
then the sky turned grey

and so i sat in my room for 27 days
no she never called
i had somethin' to say
but no she never called
i had somethin' to say

well i don't know much and i don't know how
why would she put me threw such torture
i would have given my life for her
she was the one that left me over
now i'm lovesick and i'm not gonna call her

[Chorus]

will i bet she's great
another boyfriend's lame
she could go to hell
it'll never be the same
she could go to hell
it'll never be the same

we'll my open worms
well they time i'd say
your my all time plack
then the sky turned grey
your my all time plack
and the sky turned grey

[Chorus x2]

Rejected...since day one
My name is...bastard son
I've been damned...so many times I've lost count!
Blue collar...working man
Devices...masterplan
Bi-polar...with a mental side arm

I'm sick and I'm twisted
I'm broken and you can't fix it
Don't make me, cause I'll do it
Red button and we'll all go

Into the river below...running from the inferno...
You'll think I'm insane but you'll all know my name!
Into the river below...running from the inferno...
I'll take all the blame, the front page and the fame!

Contraption...made up of
Nuts and bolts...creates the
New monster...to burn your family tree down!
Tick-tocking...times up now
Split second...the world frowns
Lonely heart...never had nobody!

I'm sick and I'm twisted
I'm broken and you can't fix it
Don't make me, cause I'll do it
Red button and we'll all go

Into the river below...running from the inferno...
You'll think I'm insane but you'll all know my name!
Into the river below...running from the inferno...
I'll take all the blame, the front page and the fame!

I'll take all the blame
The front page and the fame
Into the river below
Into the river below
Into the river below
Into the river below

Into the river below...running from the inferno...
You'll think I'm insane but you'll all know my name!
Into the river below...running from the inferno...
I'll take all the blame, the front page and the fame!

Yeah I'll take all the blame
The front page and the fame
But you'll all know my name
And you'll think I'm insane
But you'll all know my name
But you'll think I'm insane
