*NOTE TO SAM* Yes, I am aware of the fact that New Found Glory did not write "That Thing You Do" and I know it's a movie (only thanks to Charlie) I just never knew who did the original. I just knew NFG did a cover cuz I have a CD with it on it. Hahaha. Yeah. I'm a loser. fun times... I think its all self-explanatory...and I know NO ONE in this whole world will read it all, i dunno why i put so much work into it. maybe i just seriously needed to vent...maybe i'm just crazy

*oh yeah..and the one bad thing about being a girl and liking punk rock...is that all the song-writers are guys. so if there are any girls out there who are as crazy as i am and have done somehting like this, you know what i'm saying. anyway, all these guys sing about girls. well just change all the feminine pronouns to masculine pronouns...and then it all works out. yayness...i think. (i know i changed it in "between you and me")*



Bad Religion: You

There's a place where EVERYONE can be happy. Its the MOST .b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l. place in the WHOLE xFxUxCxKxExNx WORLD. Its made of |c|a|n|d|y|c|a|n|e|s| and planes and bright red choo-choo trains and the xMxExAxNxExSxTx .l.i.t.t.l.e. boys and the MOST INNOCENT .l.i.t.t.l.e. girls. And you know I WISH that I could go there. Its a |road| that I have not found. And I wish you the best of §.l.u.c.k.§, dear. Drop a .c.a.r.d. or .l.e.t.t.e.r. to
| my| side| of town. Because there's no time for ï.f.u.s.s.i.n.g.ð and N.f.i.g.h.t.i.n.g.N my friend. But baby, I'm ».a.m.a.z.e.d.» at the xHxAxTxEx that you can send. And you painted my entire world. But I dont have the turpentine to clean what you have soiled..And I wont forget it. There's a place where everyone can be RIGHT even you remain determined to be |o|p|p|o|s|e|d| Admittence requires no qualifications. Its where everyone has been and where everybody goes. So PLEASE try not to be impatient for we all xHxAxTxEx |standing|in|line| And when the farm is good and bought, you'll be there without a thought, and .e.t.e.r.n.i.t.y. my friend, is a l o n g fucking .t.i.m.e.


Green Day: Why Do You Want Him?

I saw you standing ALONE with a .::SAD::. look on your face. You call him on the phone. Looks like HE LEFT without A TRACE. .t.e.a.r.s. falling out of your eyes. He's living IN A DISGUISE. You've been FEELING BAD for s o l o n g. You WONDER if its RIGHT or WRONG. WHY do you WANT HIM? Now MANY DAYS have .g.o.n.e. by. STILL you JUST SIT there and CRY. Youre FEELING BAD for yourself. His memory will ALWAYS DWELL. You're SO OBSESSED with his love. That's why PUSH came to SHOVE. You've been FEELING BAD for s o l o n g. You WONDER if its RIGHT or WRONG. WHY do you WANT HIM? You find a WAY OUT to THROW it ALL AWAY. But you can bet YOU GOT SOMETHING TO SAY.


Dashboard Confessional: The Best Deceptions

I HEARD about your .t.r.i.p. I HEARD about your .s.o.u.v.e.n.i.r.s. I HEARD about the .c.o.o.l. .b.r.e.e.z.e. in the .c.o.o.l. .n.i.g.h.t.s. and the .c.o.o.l. .g.u.y.s. you spent them with. I GUESS I SHOULD have heard of that FROM YOU. Don't you SEE that this .::charade::. is over. And all the BEST DECEPTIONS and the CLEVER COVER STORY awards go to YOU. So .k.i.s.s. me HARD cuz this will be the LAST time that I let you. You will be back someday, and this AWKWARD .k.i.s.s. that tells of OTHER PEOPLE'S .l.i.p.s. will be of service to keeping you AWAY. I heard about your REGRETS. I heard that you were FEELING SORRY. I heard from SOMEONE that you wish you could SET THINGS RIGHT between us. I GUESS I SHOULD have heard of that FROM YOU. Don't you SEE that this .::charade::. is over. And all the BEST DECEPTIONS and the CLEVER COVER STORY awards go to YOU. So .k.i.s.s. me HARD cuz this will be the LAST time that I let you. You will be back someday, and this AWKWARD .k.i.s.s. that tells of OTHER PEOPLE'S .l.i.p.s. will be of service to keeping you AWAY. I'm .w.a.i.t.i.n.g. for blood to ~f~l~o~w~ to my fingers. I'll be all right when my hands get warm. Ignoring the phone. I'd rather SAY NOTHING. I'd rather you'd NEVER heard my voice. You're calling TOO LATE to be gracious and you do not warrant l o n g goodbyes. You're calling TOO LATE.


The Ataris: Between You And Me

Wont you .c.o.m.e. over? You KNOW that you want to. How does it feel to know I STILL WANT you? Why do we ALWAYS seem to want what we cant CANT HAVE? LESSONS LEARNED. But then I listened to my Y.h.e.a.r.t.Y and it says STILL run BACK for MORE. I'm happy for you. I'm sure that she REALLY LOVES you. But it |b|r|e|a|k|s| my Y.h.e.a.r.t.Y to know I CANT hold you. Its just HARD to think I'll NEVER get that chance to say youre mine. But EVERYTIME you hear this song you'll know you've made a .m.a.r.k. on my Y.h.e.a.r.t.Y and my MIND...


Bail Out: Overcast Skies

WHERE did you go? Now I...now I have lost my way running from the overcast in me. I STILL think about you EVERY |s|i|n|g|l|e| day and the way life's SURE TO BE. The time moves .s.l.o.w.l.y. I'm feeling LONELY on these .::rainy::. days. I'm DROWNING in mud, SWIMMING in floods, SPLASHING life away. But I'm .l.o.o.k.i.n.g. out my |window| to see you *dancing* in the .::rain::. You LEFT me such a l o n g time ago. But I guess I'll have to WAIT to see you. NEXT time we meet, I'll say...I'll say I LOVE the way...the way that heaven *shines* |i|n|s|i|d|e| your .e.y.e.s. You'll look back at me and smile happily as i begin to CRY. The time moves .s.l.o.w.l.y. I'm feeling LONELY on these .::rainy::. days. I'm CALLING for R.s.u.n.R, FAKING I've won. Time to xKxIxLxLx the pain. But I'm .l.o.o.k.i.n.g. out my |window| to see you *dancing* in the .::rain::. You LEFT me such a l o n g time ago. But I guess I'll have to WAIT to see you again. WHY did you leave on that...on that .::rainy::. day? I know its over but I BLAME IT ALL on ME. Dont wanna say I told you. Just need to stand and ::hold:: you. I'd DO IT ALL. I'd even DIG my OWN grave.


Blink-182: 21 Days

My mind .w.a.n.d.e.r.s. as I'm trying NOT to fall in love wit you, cuz .e.v.e.r.y.t.i.m.e. I awake I PONDER on my mistakes of what I said. It is ALWAYS my ESTEEM that I sure lose .p.l.a.y.i.n.g. those STUPID games as I ALWAYS end up c h a s i n g you. I CANT help myself anymore. I'm REHEARSING my .t.h.o.u.g.h.t.s.as I'm TOO SCARED to come to your door. I PUSHED it all |aside| just to |stand|next|to|you.| But now you wont talk to me for something I DIDNT DO. ITS NOT GONNA WORK! And I'm trying not to .t.h.i.n.k. of you. I'm all ~CONFUSED~ as I think of the .t.h.i.n.g.s. I would do. I'm all SHOOK UP as I get NEVERVOUS |i|n|s|i|d|e.| My emotions are something that I will ALWAYS HIDE.


The Ataris: Not A Worry In The World

Do you REMEMBER all the things we did? And what its like to be a KID? Being YOUNG and .s.k.i.p.p.i.n.g. school. I guess we MUST have |b|r|o|k|e|n| every rule. I NEVER thought those times would last forever. But now that theyre .g.o.n.e. I'm pretty sure we grew up WAY TOO FAST. I had my wishes on a «.s.t.a.r.« I hope that yours came TRUE. Now all I've got is a MEMORY of you. Not a worry in the WORLD. I remember when you MOVED AWAY. You promised me that you'd be BACK one day. But times have .c.h.a.n.g.e.d. and SO HAVE I. It SUCKS that friendships end with a goodbye. I NEVER thought that friendshipls last forever. But now that you're .g.o.n.e. I'm pretty sure we |end| up ALL THE SAME. Still I WONT say goodbye. Won't EVER say goodbye. And know that I'll ALWAYS be your friend.


Green Day: In The End

All xBxRxAxWxNx and no brains and all those .n.i.c.e. things and you FINALLY got what you want. |someone| to LOOK GOOD with and .l.i.g.h.t. your |c|i|g|a|r|e|t|t|e| is THIS what you REALLY WANT? I .f.i.g.u.r.e.d. out what you're ALL ABOUT and I DONT think I like what I see. SO I HOPE I WONT be there |in|the|end| if you come around. How l o n g will he LAST |b|e|f|o|r|e| he's a .c.r.e.e.p. in the | PAST | and you're ALONE ONCE AGAIN? Will you pop up AGAIN and be my .s.p.e.c.i.a.sl. friend til the |end| and WHEN WILL THAT BE?


Bail Out: Nash Bridges

Said I told you so, so many times you xSxLxAxPxPxExDx me in my face and .w.a.l.k.e.d. .a.w.a.y. People cant understand just WHY I TRY to help you though this life today. But I know if I dont do it, then no one will and you'll have to LEARN LIFE HARD. Smoke a cigarette and you know it xKxIxLxLxSx but it sums up who you are. Cuz today, as we're standing face|to|ecaf with our Y.h.e.a.r.t.s.Y turned kcad|to|back, I TRY to fill the | SPACE | with ALL the THINGS you LACK. I always THOUGHT we'd be together. I always THOUGHT you were the one. And everything you say is said in the PAST and now your |bridge| is BURNED. So dont come crying, whining back to me cuz its OBVIOUS you haven't learned. And I'm not mad, pissed, or filled with hate. I'm just a LITTLE BIT discontent. And I know you'll be spending the rest of your days trying to figure out WHAT THAT MEANT.

The time has come to say .g.o.o.d.b.y.e. to all our past xRxExGxRxExTxSx I'm sorry to inform you, but I doubt you'll REALLY ever .u.n.d.e.r.s.t.a.n.d.

So many .t.h.i.n.g.s. are left unsaid but I won't even xWxAxSxTxEx my time for us to go our |s|e|p|a|r|a|t|e| ways. I xHxOxPxEx you miss me when I'm .g.o.n.e.

Blink-182: Lemmings

A freight train to the |right| Feeling that xSxTxIxNxGx of .p.r.i.d.e. Its fucking with me. Its fucking with you. All is fair in Y.l.o.v.e.Y and xWxAxRx until you say it isnt, but YOURE WRONG. |w|o|r|d|s| on the |backs| of flyers. My clothes are in the dryer. It means NOTHING. Nothing is changing. La familia is xDxExAxDx and xGxOxNxEx The .c.h.i.l.d.r.e.n. grew up and m o v e d on. Is it TOO MUCH to ak for the things to work out this time? I only ask for what is MINE. I wanted |e|v|e|r|y|t|h|i|n|g| I GOT IT. Now I'm gonna throw it .a.w.a.y. I'LL THROW IT AWAY. Prime select and a |box| of .g.l.a.z.e. Pulling fly-bys on days when we were .y.o.u.n.g. and innocent. Elbow drop Sundays when Mark Eaton got N.b.e.a.t.N to xSxHxIxTx .l.a.u.g.h.i.n.g. at the bands we hate. All the -.s.p.o.t.s.- we used to skate, well they're STILL there. But we've gone our|own|ways. I know it's for the best but |s|o|m|e|t|i|m|e|s| I .w.o.n.d.e.r. will I EVER have friends like you again? Is it TOO MUCH to ak for the things to work out this time? I only ask for what is MINE. I wanted |e|v|e|r|y|t|h|i|n|g| I GOT IT. Now I'm gonna throw it .a.w.a.y. I'LL THROW IT AWAY. You're gonna S.d.r.o.w.n.S in the xMxExSxSx you've made. Your SELF-INFLICTED xHxAxTxEx You turn|your|back on the friends you lose when they dont |follow| ALL YOUR .r.u.l.e.s. But people are what they wanna be and NOT lemmings to the .s.e.a. Maybe it's time that you look|at|yourself. Ä.s.t.o.p.Ä BLAMING life on SOMEONE ELSE.


Fenix TX: Jolly Green Dumbass

Well ALL THE THINGS I've said to try and make it .w.o.r.k. have been bent or .m.i.s.u.n.d.e.r.s.t.o.o.d. |e|v|e|r|y|t|h|i|n|g| was taken the xWxRxOxNxGx WAY. Now you're .ma.k.i.n.g. things SO HARD. Now when you .t.h.i.n.k. of me you get bent |out|of|shape| xPxIxSxSxExDx xOxFxFx at all the .c.h.o.i.c.e.s. that you've made. |e|v|e|r|y|t|h|i|n|g| is going the xWxRxOxNxGx WAY and its .ma.k.i.n.g. things SO HARD. You always .k.i.c.k and SCREAM SO HARD. WHAT can I DO to .c.a.l.m. you down? WHY do you make things SO HARD? You gotta Ä.s.t.o.p.Ä .s.n.e.a.k.i.n.g. •a•r•o•u•n•d• I guess for you a new life HAS BEGUN. I'll sit at |home| and watch re-runs. So I'm .g.o.n.e. all the time. What DIFFERENCE does it make? |togetherness| doesn't seem to amount to xAxNxYxTxHxIxNxGx |e|v|e|r|y|t|h|i|n|g| is ALL SCREWED UP and now I'm .m.a.k.i.n.g. things SO HARD. .s.o.m.e.t.i.m.e.s. I think about the way it USED TO BE. You're not the same person that you .s.t.a.r.t.e.d. out to be. I haven't talked to you in .d.a.y.s. I guess it's not so hard...


Face To Face: Disappointed

.r.e.a.l.i.t.y. is what you wanna xSxExEx It SHOULDNT make a difference to me. I put my xTxRxUxSxTx in what you had to say. It DIDNT make a difference .a.n.y.w.a.y. I know you’ve TRIED your very BEST And I’m SO glad Thank you SO much .d.i.s.a.p.p.o.i.n.t.m.e.n.t. is what you’ve MADE THIS .e.x.p.e.c.t.a.t.i.o.n.s. OVERRATED. .d.i.s.a.p.p.o.i.n.t.m.e.n.t. is what you’ve MADE THIS My .a.m.b.i.t.i.o.n. is so | DEFLATED | .r.e.a.l.i.t.y. is DIFFERENT FOR ME. My .e.y.e.s. are o p e n WIDE ENOUGH to xSExEx I’ve LISTENED to your explanations why. The more you fail the harder that I TRY. A case of xMxIxSxTxAxKxExNx .o.p.p.o.r.t.u.n.i.t.y. I guess I REALLY got it WRONG IDENTITY is INSIGNIFICANT ...or is it xExVxExRxYxTxHxIxNxGx?


Green Day: She

SHE... she SCREAMS in SILENCE. A SULLEN RIOT PENETRATING THROUGH HER MIND. Waiting for a .s.i.g.n. to SMASH the SILENCE with a |b|r|i|c|k| of SELF CONTROL. Are you |LOCKED|UP| in a world thats been xPxLxAxNxNxExDx OUT for you? Are you .f.e.e.l.i.n.g. like a SOCIAL TOOL WITHOUT A USE? SCREAM at me until my EARS BLEED. I'm TAKING HEED JUST FOR YOU. SHE... she's xFxIxGxUxRxExDx OUT all her DOUBTS from SOMEONE ELSE'S |point|of|view| waking up this time so SMASH the SILENCE with a |b|r|i|c|k| of SELF CONTROL.


Blink-182: Apple Shampoo

She DIDNT MEAN to deceive you, BELIEVE me. But .s.o.m.e.t.i.m.e.s. the HARDEST |p|a|r|t| is conceiving. The good .i.n.t.e.n.t.i.o.n.s. that you had now only came to |this| and ALTHOUGH she saw the |m|a|r|k| the ï.a.r.r.o.w.ð xMxIxSxSxExDx It ISNT exciting reciting the .s.t.o.r.i.e.s. of kind words turned xHxUxRxTxIxNxGx when routine gets .b.o.r.i.n.g. Both getting tired of xPxUxNxKx xRxOxCxKx clubs and both playing in xPxUxNxKx xRxOxCxKx bands. The |s|t|a|r|t| was .s.o.m.e.t.h.i.n.g. good. But SOME good things must xExNxDx And she said "It could NEVER survive with such |d|i|f|f|e|r|i|n|g| .l.i.v.e.s. One |home| One out on tour AGAIN. We may xNxExVxExRx come back. The |s|t|r|i|k|e| of a .m.a.t.c.h. The '.c.a.n.d.l.e.' is xBxUxRxNxIxNxGx at both|ends. Now she knows TOO MUCH and I'm too fucked up. Its .a.w.k.w.a.r.d. tyring to make my |move| I'll PRETEND that I'm fine. Show up right on time. But I know I'll xNxExVxExRx be that cool. I never wanted to |hold|you|back| I just wanted to HOLD ON. But my .c.h.a.n.c.e. is GONE. I know JUST WHERE I |s|t|a|n|d| a .b.o.y. | TRAPPED | in the |body| of a |man| I'll take what you're willing to give and I'll teach myself to live with a walk-on |p|a|r|t| of a .b.a.c.k.g.r.o.u.n.d. .s.h.o.t. of a movie I'm not in. She's so .i.m.p.o.r.t.a.n.t. and I'm so SHOULD HAVE .k.i.s.s.e.d. you in LA. But I drove home all | ALONE | AS IF I had a choice anyway. WHERE are you coming from? WHAT are you running from? Is it SO hard to xSxExEx And if you're .f.e.e.l.i.n.g. scared, remember the .t.i.m.e. we shared. You know that it meant xExVxExRxYxTxHxIxNxGx to ME.
