Bonus Mosh Pt. II Lyrics

So, scream I heard about your message
And how it reeks of your indifference
Simply tied horizontal straight from your wrists
(So scream louder now)
I'm bound to come around about
(Bound to come around)
But can't you, can't you feel it rolling off your lips
Tensing up your shoulders
C'mon say it...

Well, it's love (It's love)
Make it hurt (I deserve it)
Well, it's love (It's love)
Make it hurt (I deserve it)
Well, it's love, it's love, it's love...
Make it hurt.

I said I use the inconsistencies
That undress the machine
You're the poster boy, their selling point, the focus for their new campaign
(Something has to be done)
Bound to come around about
(Bound to come around)
Oh, but can't you, can't you feel it rolling off your lips
Tensing up your shoulders, c'mon...

Well, it's love (It's love)
Make it hurt (I deserve it)
Well, it's love (It's love)
Make it hurt (I deserve it)
Well, it's love, it's love, it's love...
Make it hurt.

The keys to the castle
Are right where I left them
The princess walked in just to take more attention
Cause after all, well isn't that all that I've been after
And after all, well isn't that all that I'm after
You're so...

(No way out) I give up in you, well, I give up in you
(No way out) I give up in you
(No way out) Well, I give up in you, I give up in you
(No way out) Well, I give up in you

I wanted you for nothing more
Than hating you for what you were
If that's what you wanted to hear
(Well, if that's what you wanted to hear)
I wanted you for nothing more
Than hating you for what you were
(So leave, leave) If that's what you wanted to hear
(If that's what you wanted to hear)
I wanted you for nothing more
Than hating you for what you were
(So leave, leave) If that's what you wanted to hear
(If that's what you wanted to hear)
(It's love, it's love) I wanted you for nothing more
(Make it hurt, I deserve it) Than hating you for what you were
(If that's what you wanted to hear)
That's what you wanted to hear
(To hear) If that's what you wanted to hear
(If that is how you'll let it burn)

The Things We'll Never Know Lyrics

The Things We'll Never Know

This song is about a guy who is reminiscing on his past relationship, presumedly with his girlfriend. He realizes the relationship would have never worked, but he regrets not making her stay: "Sorry that I couldn't make you stay." "Puddles in the rain" is an analogy of him falling apart after this relationship has ended.

Great Romances Of The 20th Century Lyrics

September never stays this cold
Where I come from
And you know
I'm not one for complaining,
But I love the way you'd roll
Excuses off the tip of your tongue
As I slowly fall apart (slowly, quietly, slowly)
Fall apart

This won't mean a thing come tomorrow
And that's exactly how I'll make it seem
Cause I'm still not sleeping,
Thinking I've crawled home from worse than this

So please, please (please)
I'm running out of sympathy (I'm running out of sympathy!)
And I never said I'd take this
I never said I'd take this lying down

She says
"Come on, come on, let's just get this over with [Repeat x2]
(I never said I'd take this lying down, let's just get this over with,
And I've crawled home from worse than this)
She says
"Come on, come on, let's just get this over with
She says
"Come on, come on"

You always come close but this never comes easy,
I still know everything [Repeat x3]
You always come so close
I still know everything, I still know everything, I still know

You always come close but this never comes easy [Repeat x2]
You always come, you come in close

I never said I'd take this lying down [Repeat x3]
But I've crawled home from worse than this

If it's not keeping you up nights
Then what's the point [Repeat x4]

I'm in your room
Now is this turning you on
Am I turning you on?

I'm in your room
Are you turned on?

I'm on the corner of your bed,
I'm practically naked,
Are you turned on,
Are you turned on?

Great Romances Of The 20th Century

This is about a guy who loves this girl but is picking up flaws in their relationship. He wants to stay with her but he us running out of sympathy for her, while she just wants it to be a quickie in general. He finds it hard to be with her and realizes that he shouldn't be with someone who takes advantage of him, but he still would do anything to be with her.

The title is a reference to a television show that profiled celebrity couples. Like many Taking Back Sunday songs, it is not mentioned in the lyrics.

Set Phasers To Stun Lyrics

Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes (say yes, say yes, say yes, say)

I'm sorry it took me so long,
I'm sorry it took me so long,
(to come around, to come around)
I'm sorry it took me so long

Your famous last words started once your
Fingers hit the snooze,
"Just nine more minutes please" (and they)
They all know where to find me
And the word that I said
"what a big mistake"
And the words you let out ("keeping me away")
Well I will never make another promise
(without you)
Well I will never make another promise
(with you in mind)

So pace the stairs to your apartment
Like its where you want to be
(where you want to be)
Where you want to be
(where you want to be)

I'm sorry it took me so long
I'm sorry it took me so long
(to go around, to go around)
I'm sorry it took me so long
I'm sorry it took me so long

Well there's a secret I've been perfecting,
That's what I wondered "would you let me"
I'm comfortably confused (and you)
You've gotten so removed
You know I, I could take the friends of those filth
Ocean blue, paint em white now
(ohh you're gonna fall tonight)
Well I will never make another promise
(without you)
I will never make another promise
(with you in mind)

So pace the stairs the stairs to your apartment
Like its where you want to be
(where you want to be)
Where you want to be
(where you want to be)
So pace the stairs to your apartment
Like that's where you want to be
(where you want to be)
Where you want to be
(where you want to be)

Oh we would paint your sins on the ceiling
I keep them glued to my chest
It keeps me close like a promise kept
(say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes)
If I talk in my sleep, then you just keep trying
I like it enough if you just keep trying
If I choke in my sleep
If I choke in my sleep
(say yes say yes say yes say yes)
I'm sorry it took me so long
(say yes say yes say yes say yes)
I'm sorry it took me so long

So pace the steps to your apartment
Like its where you want to be
(where you want to be)
Where you want to be

Set Phasers To Stun

This is about a relationship that has just ended. The guy in the song has suspected it all along but he didn't dare confront his girlfriend about it until she told him. The chorus is him saying, "Fine, you go hang around your apartment like you really want to be there, but you're really miserable."

The title is a phrase often said on Star Trek when they needed their weapons, but didn't want to use deadly force.

The album title comes from the line in this song, "So pace the stairs to your apartment, like it's where you want to be."

This Photograph Is Proof (I Know You Know) Lyrics

Well, I'll wait till you listen
I won't say a word
To follow your instincts
Just never worked for me
Your silent but strong, (yeah, I'm playing that card)
And your noticing nothing again

Now I'm lying on the table
With everything you said
Keeping mind the way that it felt
When the most I could do was to just blame myself

(yeah, I'm playing that card)
When the most I could do was to just blame myself
And I know you know, everything
I know you didn't mean it
I know you didn't mean it

I know you know, everything (drop everything)
I know you didn't mean it (start it all over)
I know you didn't mean it (remember more then you'd like to forget)

So, we're talking forever
And you almost feel better
But, betters no excuse for tonight
You see, it's never been enough
Just to leave all you gave up
But, its never good enough to feel right

Now I'm lying on the table
With everything you said
It will all catch up eventually
Well, it caught up and honestly
The weight of my decisions
Were impossible to hold

They were never yours
They were never yours
Well I, know you know, everything
I know you didn't mean it
I know you didn't mean it

I know you know, everything (drop everything)
I know you didn't mean it (start it all over)
I know you didn't meant it (remember more then you'd like to forget)

Drop everything, start it all over
Remember more then you'd like to forget [Repeat: x2]

Would you like to forget
Would you like to forget
Drop everything, start it all over
Well, drop everything start it all over (would you like to forget)
Drop everything start it all over
Start it all

Well I, know you know, everything
I know you didn't mean it
I know you didn't mean it

I know you know, everything (drop everything)
I know you didn't mean it (start it all over)
I know you didn't meant it (remember more then you'd like to forget)

I know you know
I know you know, you know, you know, you know

This Photograph Is Proof (I Know You Know)

This song is about relationships. It's about how it sucks when you break up with a girl because you have to go through the whole process of looking for a new girl and "Drop everything start it all over."

New American Classic Lyrics

You've got to get better,
Said, it's all in your head,
We could live through these letters
Or forget it altogether,
See the months they don't matter
Its the days I can't take
When the hours move to minutes
And I'm seconds away,

Just ask the question come untie the knot
Say you won't care,
Say you won't care,
Retrace the steps, as if we forgot,
Say you won't care,
Say you won't care,
You try to avoid it, but there's not a doubt
And there's one thing I can do nothing about

When all that we need is just a reaction,
Its too much to ask for when there's no attraction anymore,
Chasing our dreams is just a distraction
I want to remember what I know
That I can't go back,

Just ask the question, come untie the knot
Say you won't care
Say you won't care
Retrace the steps as if we forgot
Say you won't care
Say you won't care
You try to avoid it (try to avoid it)
But there's not a doubt
And there's one thing I can do nothing
There's one thing I can do nothing
There's one thing I can do nothing about

Just ask the question (just ask the question)
Come untie the knot
Say you won't care
Say you won't care
Retrace the steps (retrace the steps)
As if we forgot
Say you won't care
Say you won't care
You try to avoid it (try to avoid it)
But there's not a doubt
And there's one thing I can do nothing
There's one thing I can do nothing
There's one thing I can do nothing about

You Know How I Do Lyrics

So sick, so sick of being tired.
And oh so tired of being sick.
We're both such magnificent liars.
So crush me baby, I'm all ears.
So obviously desperate, so desperately obvious.
I'll give in one more time and feed you stupid
Lines all about "cleaning up my act"

We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.(4X)

So sick, so sick of being tired.
And oh so tired of being sick.
Willing and ready to prove the worst
Of everything you said about.
So obviously desperate, so desperately obvious.
So good at setting bad examples.
Listen, chic, I've had all I can handle.

We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore. (4X)

Think of all the fun you had.
The finest line divides a night well spent from a waste of time.
Think of all the days you spent alone with just
Your T.V. set and "I can barely smile" (2X)

Let's go
He's smoked out in the back of the van, says he's held up with holding on and on and on. (2X)

Little Devotional Lyrics

Well I'm blowing smoke out of your window,
And you're slippin' back into your dress,
You know you were always such a lady,
I've always been impressed,
But gentlemen they don't ask questions,
Just keep quiet, pay attention, gentlemen,
They don't ask questions, we could pay attention

I said I'm gonna have myself in shambles,
Phone your folks they're up and lookin' for some answers,
Said I'm gonna have myself in shambles,
Phone your folks they're up and lookin' for some answers

Well I pictured you in blue, but I have to say,
I'm impartial to the red, deep, dark, and devastating,
Leaving no question as to where you've been,
I calm the crowd, by keeping quiet, move like a shadow, up to your matress,
Gentlemen don't ask questions, we could pay attention

Do you think he'd be better,
Doing what I do best?

I said I'm gonna have myself in shambles,
Phone your folks they're up and lookin' for some answers,
Said I'm gonna have myself in shambles,
Phone your folks they're up and lookin' for some answers

Do you think he'd be better,
Doing what I do best?

I said I'm gonna have myself in shambles,
Phone your folks they're up and lookin' for some answers,
Said I'm gonna have myself in shambles,
Phone your folks they're up and lookin' for some answers

Little Devotional

This song starts just after the singer and the girl in the song have had sex. She has been cheating on him and he knows it, he just won't confront her about it because, as he puts it, "Gentlemen don't ask questions. they just keep quiet and pay attention." He's worried because once her parents find out what's going on they're going to be mad. He's lost because he thinks he's the nicer guy and he can't understand what she sees in him.

There's No I In Team Lyrics

Well I can't regret,
Can't you just forget it?
I started something I couldn't finish
And if we go down,
We go down together
Best friends means,
Well best friends means

And I've got a twenty-dollar bill
That says you're up late night starting
Fist fights versus fences in your backyard
Wearing your black eye like a badge of honor
Soaking in sympathy
From friends who never loved you
Nearly half as much as me

Broken down in bars and bathrooms
All I did was what I had to
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's just what anyone would do
Take the time to talk about it
Think a lot and live without it
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's something unforgivable oh oh

Well I can't regret,
Can't you just forget it?
I started something I couldn't finish
If we go down,
We go down together
Best friends means,
Well best friends means

You never knew
Well I never told you
Everything I know about breaking hearts
I learned from you, it's true
I've never done it with the style and grace you have
But I've made long term plans
Based on these mistakes

Broken down in bars and bathrooms
All I did was what I had to
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's just what anyone would do
Take the time to talk about it
Think a lot and live without it
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's something unforgivable

Is this what you call tact?
I swear you're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back
So let's end this call,
And end this conversation
There's nothing worse
(That's right he said, that's right he said it)
I swear, you have no idea
The jealousy that became me thinking
(That's right he said)
That you always had it way too easy

Broken down in bars and bathrooms
All I did was what I had to
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's just what anyone would do
Take the time to talk about it
Think a lot and live without it
Don't believe me when I tell you
It's something unforgivable

Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve
Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve
Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve
Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve
Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve

Best friends means I pulled the trigger
Best friends means you get what you deserve

There's No I In Team

This song is a response to Brand New's song "Seventy Times 7." Jessie Lacey of Brand New's girlfriend cheated on him with John Nolan of Taking Back Sunday. John called Jessie to tell him and Jessie said, "Is that what you call tact? You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back. So let's end this call, and end this conversation." That's why these lyrics are in both of the songs. The two have now made up and are friends again and even perform these two songs together.

Cute Without The E (Cut from the Team) Lyrics

Your lipstick, his collar don't bother Angel
I know exactly what goes on

When everything you'll get is
Everything that you've wanted, princess
well which would you prefer
My finger on the trigger, or
(Meet face down, down across your floor)
My face down, down across your floor
(Meet face down, down across your floor)
Well just so long as this thing is loaded

And will you tell all your friends
You've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin',
This all was only wishful thinkin'

And will you tell all your friends
You've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin'
This all was only wishful thinkin'
Let's go

Don't bother trying to explain Angel
I know exactly what goes on when you're on and
How about I'm outside of your window
How about I'm outside of your window
Watchin' him keep the details covered
You're such a sucker for a sweet talker, yeah

And will you tell all your friends
You've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin'
This all was only wishful thinkin'

And will you tell all your friends
You've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin'
This all was only wishful thinkin'

Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me

Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know

Why can't I feel anything
From anyone other than you?

And all of this was all your fault
And all of this

I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
For this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
As something larger than life

I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
For this simple reason is true
I just need to keep you in mind
As something larger than life

I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
For this simple reason is true
I just need to keep you in mind
As something larger than life
