Ok, before we get started, I must explain something to you...Midtown is my most favoritest band ever! You must understand and accept my insane obsession with them. Just listen to their music, and you'll know what I'm talking about. Let me also inform you that I am officially Gabe's Babe! Thank you and goodbye :o)
News About the Band:Midtown is releasing it's second full-length album, "Become What You Hate", due out April 16th. They're currently on tour with Face to Face. Check 'em out!
Here are some selected chunks of lyrics from Midtown...
Recluse
"i've heard advice that anger soon subsides, and you go on with your life and gain new insight, but inside i'm thinking that just wont suffice. cause i'm sure i'd like to take it back and kill it at the start. yeah we're going far. yeah it's from the heart. yeah we're taking care of every single one of us. who do you trust? if we could be recluse and i could inflict a lifetime of abuse anywhere, i'd be killing you. my anger still persists and it will not desist until i manifest on you. it will not desist until i manifest. wouldn't it be swell to test how thin i wear when i remember you?"
Just Rock and Roll
"you can never tell me i shouldn't walk away. its foolish to assume that i'll be coming back another day. you were never right and i was never wrong. does truth lie in sincerity of another sullen song? cause you were right then, i should have been the one to release it. its coming back to tease me, but i was just born and you're pride was too strong. can you change it? are you willing to face it? you can tell your story and coat it any way, but you will never change. who you trying to play now? your friends are falling out. they know you just don't care. they know you never did...God I wish I could hate you for the rest of my life..."
No Place Feels Like Home
"regrets are worthless, they misconstrue the past in sight and sound. and as lines recede, no one speaks a word of his lust, a word of dreams that've been left to rust. the tv's on and everyone stays calm. as time has passed no one understands. and to say the least, the years have been unfair. i wanted to tell you i miss it. i just wanted to let you know, the last year has helped me grow. i want to take you on the road. where we'll go i'll never know. will you come along? it's easier when no place feels like home."
Come On
"...and when you leave it all and you finally fall, i'll be coming down with you. i'm waiting for you. something is wrong, but i just can't put my finger on it. you never listened and you'll never listen now. you know what i'm about, is that sufficient? you never listened and you'll never listen now, do you hear the words i say? it hurts when you talk that way..."
Fraying All the Ends
"...you're always exchanging peace of mind for everything, you want everything. you want it all, i can see it in your eyes. i can see right through you. there's nothing to you. you conjure lies and you'll surround yourself with everyone who says what you need to feel all right, everyone who speaks the words that make you perpetually contrived. they say what you want to hear, say what you want to hear, what you want to. why can't you be strong?..."
Faulty Foundation
"this plan is only surface
and i do not deserve this. i'm wondering if i'll withstand to stand alone, and stand to scream to the world: i'm through and now i've come to mend
these wounds that were gored by you through all of them. it's too sad that i've got to mediate these faulty sides of you, and i'm wondering whatever did i do. the only reason that i still remain to you
is i go on repeating the excuse..."
