Buried lyrics - Alkaline Trio
I'm awake
It was a half bad dream
That was way too long
My whole life it seemed
Then someone started digging me up
Turned my headstone into dust
The sun was swallowed by the trees
The night was here for good
You pulled my hair, picked my head up
You put oxygen into my blood
You walked me through the gates like we were visitors for the day
You laid me down in the back seat
And you drove till I woke up to hear you say
You never lie but it's no fun to tell the truth
I guess I never loved but I will see what I can do
Got so much life to waste that I would take my days and hand them to you
I'm awake
It was a half bad dream
That was way too long
My whole life it seemed
Than someone started digging me up
Turned my headstone into dust
I know you never lie but it's no fun to tell the truth
I guess I never loved but I will see what I can do
Got so much life to waste that I would take my days and hand them to you
I know you never lie but it's so square to tell the truth
I guess I never loved but I will see what I can do
Got so much life to waste that I would take my days and hand them to you
To you [x4]
It was a half bad dream
That was way too long
My whole life it seemed
Then someone started digging me up
Turned my headstone into dust
The sun was swallowed by the trees
The night was here for good
You pulled my hair, picked my head up
You put oxygen into my blood
You walked me through the gates like we were visitors for the day
You laid me down in the back seat
And you drove till I woke up to hear you say
You never lie but it's no fun to tell the truth
I guess I never loved but I will see what I can do
Got so much life to waste that I would take my days and hand them to you
I'm awake
It was a half bad dream
That was way too long
My whole life it seemed
Than someone started digging me up
Turned my headstone into dust
I know you never lie but it's no fun to tell the truth
I guess I never loved but I will see what I can do
Got so much life to waste that I would take my days and hand them to you
I know you never lie but it's so square to tell the truth
I guess I never loved but I will see what I can do
Got so much life to waste that I would take my days and hand them to you
To you [x4]
I Remember A Rooftop lyrics - Alkaline Trio
I remember a rooftop making out
Downstairs the carpet screamed so loud
I waited so long for that night
Then I just turned away
And I know every street
On the west side
But I was lost, unfound, not right
Maybe there's something wrong inside
Now I've got nowhere to go
My answer's all that I've got
I'm so sorry for so many things
That I haven't said yet
This is the waiting room I spent my whole life in
They gave me a thousand hands so I could count my sins
If I'm lucky maybe I'll finish before the roof caves in
I lost my life on the first try
You found it miles down the line
A swollen face with
3 first names
You kissed the taste back in my tongue
You sucked the smoke out of my lungs
And then we slept for days and days and days
When we woke up
My heart I choked up
Had to say I love you way too soon
But right there on your couch
You loved me too
Right there on your couch
You loved me too
19 and sober once or twice
I caught some junkie's bad advice
Up to my eyes in others' problems
Couldn't see I never solve them
My Only skin and bone
And this and pills unknown
I took my lousy shot
At public recognition
Could never pull the trigger
If I wasn't shaking
I lost my life on the first try
You found it miles down the line
A swollen face with
3 first names
You kissed the taste back in my tongue
You sucked the smoke out of my lungs
And then we slept for days and days and days
When we woke up
My heart I choked up
Had to say I love you way too soon
But right there on your couch
You loved me too
Right there on your couch
You loved me too
Downstairs the carpet screamed so loud
I waited so long for that night
Then I just turned away
And I know every street
On the west side
But I was lost, unfound, not right
Maybe there's something wrong inside
Now I've got nowhere to go
My answer's all that I've got
I'm so sorry for so many things
That I haven't said yet
This is the waiting room I spent my whole life in
They gave me a thousand hands so I could count my sins
If I'm lucky maybe I'll finish before the roof caves in
I lost my life on the first try
You found it miles down the line
A swollen face with
3 first names
You kissed the taste back in my tongue
You sucked the smoke out of my lungs
And then we slept for days and days and days
When we woke up
My heart I choked up
Had to say I love you way too soon
But right there on your couch
You loved me too
Right there on your couch
You loved me too
19 and sober once or twice

Had to say I love you way too soon
But right there on your couch
You loved me too
Right there on your couch
You loved me too

I drink it daily,
As my liver's failing,
But I don't give a fuck,
Olde English I'm in love with you

Warbrain lyrics - Alkaline Trio
[Spoken:]
"Thoughts are the shadows of feelings, always darker, emptier, and simpler.
I don't care if they're fake or real, I just thank that they're showing up at all.
I have black periods. Who does not? But they are not a part of me; they are not a part of illness, but a part of my being.
Some might say I have the courage to have them. It's four o' clock in the morning. This sucks."
I can't go on
You said my head's too heavy
I need that song
Those trusty chords could pull me through
and early on
they saw the warning signs and symptoms all day long
We sit and dream of better days
Where we'd hit the ground running on empty stories we've been told
And all those nights we spent together never felt this fucking cold
When we let the car run in the driveway kiss you one last time
Before we brought the horses in before the storm of '59, of '59, of '59
I can't go on, these limbs have grown too heavy
I need that song
A night on earth could pull me through
and early on
They saw the warning signs and symptoms all day long
Wonder how far from here we'll fall
Before we hit the ground running on empty stories we've been told
And all those nights we spent together never felt this fucking cold
When we let the car run in the driveway kiss you one last time
Before we brought the horses in before the storm of '59, of '59, of '59 [x3]

We Can Never Break Up lyrics - Alkaline Trio
We can never break up
We can never not show
We can never go home
No, we can never elope
We've only got one choice
So let's keep making it
And making it
Making it
And making it
A lot of things can change
A lot of tears will dry
There's no way out of your head
I can't still drink like I'm trying
I never had to work too hard
Let's keep working it
And working it
Working it
And working it
You're like a test, I can't fuck up
You're like a song in my head, like a la la la la la like a dream
Don't wake me up and if I never see the light again
Well I guess they put me in the ground with this smile on my head, my love
My love
We can never break up
We can never not show
We can never go home
And we can never elope
We've only got one choice
So let's keep making it
And making it
Making it
And making it
You're like a test, I can't fuck up
You're like a song in my head, like a la la la la la like a dream
Don't wake me up and if I never see the light again
Well I guess they put me underground with this smile on my head, my love
My love [9x]
We can never not show
We can never go home
No, we can never elope
We've only got one choice
So let's keep making it
And making it
Making it
And making it
A lot of things can change
A lot of tears will dry
There's no way out of your head
I can't still drink like I'm trying
I never had to work too hard
Let's keep working it
And working it
Working it
And working it
You're like a test, I can't fuck up
You're like a song in my head, like a la la la la la like a dream
Don't wake me up and if I never see the light again
Well I guess they put me in the ground with this smile on my head, my love
My love
We can never break up
We can never not show
We can never go home
And we can never elope
We've only got one choice
So let's keep making it
And making it
Making it
And making it
You're like a test, I can't fuck up
You're like a song in my head, like a la la la la la like a dream
Don't wake me up and if I never see the light again
Well I guess they put me underground with this smile on my head, my love
My love [9x]
