Boxing off the fireworks
Cancel my parade
The street is empty tonight, tonight
Everything is quiet now
The city holds its breath for me
Their spirit has died, it died
Running my whole life to reach this place
And just when I arrive, the moment fades out
Will you let me?
Stop time
Your hand in mine
Bring me closer as it all gets ripped away
And I say goodbye to the clearest eyes
I won't be with you
But I won't be far away
I don't need an answer
But if you rewrote the past
You think you'd just leave me out, leave me out?
Or will you spin your head around in every crowded room
To see if I can be found, be found?
Every single plan you will forget
So do what makes you happy
No regrets now
I won't let you
Stop time
Your hand in mine
Bring me closer as it all gets ripped away
And I say goodbye to the clearest eyes
I won't be with you
But I won't be far away
I remember when you asked me how far
that I could throw this love I found
Then I heard you say you'd wait around
I won't let you
Stop time
Your hand in mine
Bring me closer as it all gets ripped away
And I say goodbye to the clearest eyes
I won't be with you
But I won't be far away
And this is goodbye, goodbye
This is goodbye, goodbye
The street is empty tonight
The street is empty tonight
"Yellowcard - Rest In Peace" lyrics:
It was the best that you could be for me
I think we were lucky just to stay alive
Even when you had only fire to breathe
I know you were only trying to make it right
Change everything I've ever known
Try once again to let you go
If you could go back now would you say it differently
If there was no one there would you open up for me
If this was the last time that we would ever speak
Could we forgive somehow could we let it rest in peace
Stories are lost somewhere behind your eyes
You are a dying breed you stand alone
I couldn't get through no matter how I tried
You tore me apart but still I love you so
Change everything I've ever known
Try once again to let you go
If you could go back now would you say it differently
If there was no one there would you open up for me
If this was the last time that we would ever speak
Could we forgive somehow could we let it rest in peace
If you could go back now would you say it differently
If there was no one there would you open up for me
If this was the last time that we would ever speak
Could we forgive somehow could we let it rest in peace
If you could go back now would you say it differently
If there was no one there would you open up for me
If this was the last time that we would ever speak
Could we forgive somehow could we let it rest in peace
"Yellowcard - Only One" lyrics:
[ar:Yellowcard]
[al:Ocean Avenue]
[ti:Only One]
[00:12.21]Broken, this fragile thing now
[00:16.69]And I can't, I can't pick up the pieces.
[00:23.48]And I've thrown my words all around,
[00:28.64]But I can't, I can't give you a reason.
[00:33.50]I feel so broken up (so broken up),
[00:37.70]And I give up (I give up),
[00:41.22]I just want to tell you so you know..
[00:46.01]Here I go,
[00:49.25]Scream my lungs out and try to get to you,
[00:54.84]You are my only one.
[00:58.13]I let go,
[01:01.33]There's just no one that gets me like you do
[01:07.09]You are my only,
[01:08.95]My only one.
[01:21.72]Made my mistakes, let you down
[01:28.03]And I can't, I can't hold on for too long.
[01:34.17]Ran my whole life in the ground
[01:39.79]And I can't, I can't get up when your gone.
[01:45.61]And something's breaking up (breaking up),
[01:48.66]I feel like giving up (like giving up),
[01:51.84]I won't walk out until you know..
[01:57.47]Here I go
[02:00.51]Scream my lungs out and try to get to you,
[02:06.01]You are my only one.
[02:08.70]I let go
[02:12.19]There's just no one that gets me like you do
[02:17.55]You are my only,
[02:19.47]My only one.
[02:48.06]Here I go,
[02:50.38]So dishonestly.
[02:52.78]Leave a note
[02:56.32]For you my only one.
[02:59.05]And I know,
[03:01.66]You can see right through me.
[03:04.40]So let me go
[03:07.82]And you will find someone.
[03:11.28]Here I go,
[03:13.57]Scream my lungs out and try to get to you,
[03:19.48]You are my only one.
[03:22.65]I let go,
[03:25.80]There's just no one, no one like you
[03:31.47]You are my only,
[03:33.36]My only one.
[03:39.96]My only one
[03:45.64]My only one
[03:51.23]My only one
[03:55.69]You are my only,
[03:56.99]My only one.
"Yellowcard - Shrink The World" lyrics:
If I could then I'd,
Shrink the world tonight,
So that I would find,
You and me inside.
A life in love,
A picture of,
A place I'm nowhere near.
A bleeding heart,
A good head start,
To anywhere but here.
Just let me out,
Please let me out,
Before I turn into a box of things,
Reminding me,
How much I'm missing out. (I am missing you.)
If I could then I'd,
Shrink the world tonight,
So that I would find,
You and me inside.
Of the last good scene,
A film that changes things.
Breaks us, makes us sing,
Leaves us wondering.
And through the wall my fist you call and then you always run.
So what's it for, the love and war, it's only fair for some.
You saved the girl you saved the world,
Well that's not true it seems.
A lesson learned, speak out of turn,
I bite my tongue it bleeds. (Bite my tongue it bleeds)
If I could then I'd
Shrink the world tonight
So that I would find
You and me inside.
Of the last good scene,
A film that changes things.
Breaks us, makes us sing,
Leaves us wondering. Are you wondering?
If I could then I'd
Shrink the world tonight
So that I would find
You and me inside.
Of the last good scene,
A film that changes things.
Breaks us, makes us sing,
Leaves us wondering.
If I could shrink the world tonight.
If I could...
"Yellowcard - Fighting" lyrics:
Said I'd move on and I'd leave it alone
But before I walk out there's something that I need you to know
I got lost in a blink of an eye
And I can never get back
No I never got back
You were not there when I wanted to say
That you were everything right and it wasn't even me to change
Now I got to go there alone
But I will never give up
No I'll never give up
What am I fighting for?
There must be something more
For all these words I sing
Do you feel anything?
Said I'm okay but I know how to lie
You were all that I had
You were delicate and hard to find
Got lost in the back of my mind
And I can never get back
No, I never got back
You were not there when I needed to say
I hit the bottom so fast
That my head was spinning around for days
Now I got to go there alone
But I will never give up
No I will never give up
What am I fighting for?
There must be something more
For all these words I sing
Do you feel anything?
What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for?
Never give up, on this [x4]
Said I'm okay, but I know how to lie
I will never give up
No I'll never give up
What am I fighting for?
There must be something more
For all these words I sing
Do you feel anything?
What am I fighting for? (No, I'm never going to give up, give up)
What am I fighting for? (No, I'm never going to give up, give up)
Said that I'd fight for the one that I found
I'm going to stay here while I wait for you to come around
I'll fight, you're apart of me now
And I will never give up
No I'll never give up
"Yellowcard - Way Away" lyrics:
I think I’m breaking out
I’m gonna leave you now
There’s nothing for me here
It’s all the same
And even though I know
That everything might go
Go down hill from here
I’m not afraid
Way away away from here I’ll be
Way away away so you can see
How it feels to be alone and not believe [It feels to be alone and not believe]
Feels to be alone and not believe
Anything
You can’t stop me now
You can’t hold me down
You can’t keep me here
I’m on my way**
I made it this far now
And I’m not burning out
No matter what you say
I’m not afraid
Way away away from here I’ll be
Way away away so you can see
How it feels to be alone and not believe [Feels to be alone and not believe]
Feels to be alone and not believe
Anything
Letting out the noise inside of me [Letting out the noise inside of me]
Every windowpane is shattering [Every windowpane is shattering]
Cutting out my words before I speak [Cutting out my words]
This is how it feels to not believe
Letting out the noise inside of me [Letting out the noise inside of me]
Every windowpane is shattering [Every windowpane is shattering]
Cutting out my words before I speak [Cutting out my words]
This is how it feels to not believe
Way away
Away from here I’ll be
Way away
Away so you can see
How it feels to be alone and not believe [Feels to be alone and not believe]
How it feels to be alone and not believe
Anything
"Yellowcard - Breathing" lyrics:
Eyes are feeling heavy but they never seem to close
The fan blades on the ceiling spin but the air is never cold
And even though you are next to me I still feel so alone
I just can't give you anything for you to call your own
And I can feel you breathing
And it's keeping me awake
Can you feel it beating?
My heart's sinking like a wave
Something I've been keeping locked away behind my lips
I can feel it breaking free with each and every kiss
I couldn't bear to hurt you but it's all so different now
Things that I was sure of, they have filled me up with doubt
And I can feel you breathing
And it's keeping me awake
Can you feel it beating?
My heart's sinking like a wave
I can feel you breathing
It's keeping me awake
Could you stop my heart? It's always beating.
Sinking like a wave
How am I supposed to feel about the things I've done?
I don't know if I should stay or turn around and run
I know that I hurt you, things will never be the same
The only love I ever knew, I threw it all away
And I can feel you breathing
And it's keeping me awake
Can you feel it beating?
My heart's sinking like a wave
I can feel you breathing
It's keeping me awake
Could you stop my heart? It's always beating.
Sinking like a wave
"Yellowcard - Surface of the Sun" lyrics:
This is a story full of restless nights
Of do or do not 'cause there is no try
Across a decade we flew high and we fell low
And getting up when we're dragged down is all we've known
We were born to be the ones
To show the faithless what we've done
And there's a fire inside
We were born to be the ones
To show the faithless what we've done
And there's a fire inside
It burns like the surface of the sun
Here in this Angel City lights will shine
(Lights will shine)
And for a while we let ourselves go blind
(Inaudible)
But now we know who loves and loves us not
And they're worth every good thing we have lost
We were born to be the ones
To show the faithless what we've done
And there's a fire inside
(Born to be)
We were born to be the ones
To show the faithless what we've done
And there's a fire inside
It burns like the surface of the sun
We were born to be the ones
And burn like the surface of the sun
(Oooh!)
To show the faithless what we've done
(Oooh!)
And burn like the surface of the sun
And all the million miles to go
Not over yet, not even close
We were born to be the ones
To show the faithless what we've done
And there's a fire inside
We were born to be the ones
To show the faithless what we've done
And there's a fire inside
It burns like the surface of the sun
We were born to be the ones
(Oooh!)
And burn like the surface of the sun
(Oooh!)
To show the faithless what we've done
(Oooh!)
And burn like the surface of the sun
"Yellowcard - hollywood died" lyrics:
Accidents out on the highway to somewhere,
They tell us about when we're young,
Rescuers working to clean up the crashes
Before she can see what they've done ,
Nobody told her she'd lose in the first round,
The last fight was fixed from the start,
Names on her sidewalks they move through her body,
Like razors they cut through her heart
Like razors they cut through her heart
Hey let go of all you know,
You're flying away now
What have you got to lose
Say out loud these words I've found
I'll be there when you come down
I'll be waiting for you
Night life the highlife she just wants a good life
So someone remembers her too
But somewhere she heard there was someplace to go
When you die when you live like we do
Die when you live like we do
Hey let go of all you know,
I'm finding a way now
What have you got to lose
Say out loud these words I've found
I'll be there when you come down
I'll be waiting for you
Hey let go of all you know,
You're flying away now
What have you got to lose
Say out loud these words I've found
I'll be there when you come down
I'll be waiting for you
(Accidents out on the highway to somewhere
They tell us about when we're young,
Rescuers working to clean up the crashes
Before she can see what they've done ,
Nobody told her she'd lose in the first round,
Hey let go of all you know,
You're flying away now
What have you got to lose
Say out loud these words I've found
I'll be there when you come down
I'll be waiting for you
"Yellowcard - View from Heaven" lyrics:
I'm just so tired
Won't you sing me to sleep
And fly through my dreams
So I can hitch a ride with you tonight
And get away from this place
Have a new name and face
I just ain't the same with out you in my life
Late night drives
All alone in my car
I can't help but start
Singing lines from all our favorite songs
And melodies in the air
Singing â??life just ain't fairâ??
Sometimes I still just can't believe you're gone
And I'm sure the view from heaven
Beats the hell out of mine here
And if we all believe in heaven
Maybe we'll make it through one more year
Down here
Feel your fire
When it's cold in my heart
And things sort of start
Reminding me of my last night with you
I only need one more day
Just one more chance to say
I wish that I had gone up with you too
And I'm sure the view from heaven
Beats the hell out of mine here
And if we all believe in heaven
Maybe we'll make it through one more year
Down here
You won't be coming back
And I didn't get to say good bye
(good bye)
And I really wish I got to say
Good bye
And I'm sure the view from heaven
Beats the hell out of mine here
And if we all believe in heaven
Maybe we'll make it through one more year
I hope that all is well in heaven
(I'll be singing in heaven?)
'Cause it's all shot to hell down here
(We need you here)
I know that I'll find you in heaven
(Singing in heaven)
'Cause I'm so lost with out you
Down here
You won't be coming back
And I didn't get to say good bye
I really wish I got to say good bye
"Yellowcard - Telescope" lyrics:
I've been here a while
Staring at this screen wondering what I'll write
Things I can't explain
But should've tried to say when I had the time
You were inspiration
When no one else believed
You showed me strength in my skin
That no one else could see
Let's just keep driving on
All the stars jumping in through the windows
Let's go where we belong
Headed fast as we can for the unknown
I remember how
Like a telescope you could always find
(You could always find)
Something worth a wish
You said every day's a gift and we'll be alright
(We'll be alright)
And something took you from me
I can't understand why
But wherever you're resting
(I'm carrying)
I'm carrying your line
Let's just keep driving on
All the stars jumping in through the windows
Let's go where we belong
Headed fast as we can for the unknown
You can stay there
And it's not fair
Those were the days when we laughed all the while
When the fireflies
Lit up our skies
Those were the nights when the world made us smile
My only hope
You're my telescope
My only hope
You're my telescope
My only hope
You're my telescope
My only hope
You're my telescope
(Let's just keep driving on)
(Let's go where we belong)
Let's just keep driving on
All the stars jumping in through the windows
Let's go where we belong
Headed fast as we can for the unknown
You can stay there
And it's not fair
Those were the days when we laughed all the while
When the fireflies
Lit up our skies
Those were the nights when the world made us smile
My only hope
You're my telescope
(My only hope
You're my telescope)
My only hope
You're my telescope
(My only hope)
My only hope
You're my telescope
"Yellowcard - Rough Landing, Holly" lyrics:
Left the ground
In black and white
And when the plane went down
The colors all around
I know by now
The margins slight
And still I can't get out
She's all I think about, can't let her go
It's who you know
We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she found was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
Let her go
Let her go
She moves fast, takes control
And like a heart attack, I know I can't turn back
And time just passed, nights move slow
And she was all I had
I thought I'd never last, can't let her go
It's who you know
We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she found was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
Let her go
Let her go
We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she found was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
She calls out the farther that I fly
I love that sound, so give me one more line
And from the sky she pulled me down tonight
Let her go
Let her go
Let her go
Let her go
"Yellowcard - Paper Walls" lyrics:
Let's burn a hole, so we can climb out
Of these paper walls, and this empty house.
Don't listen too close, their words are like guns.
With bullets that fly and kill what you've won.
Let's burn a hole, so we can climb out
Of these paper walls, and this empty house.
We're the only thing that's real.
These visions we have of ten years ago,
Of stars in the sky and us down below.
In streets and east coast lines,
We kept this scene alive.
Here I am, still hold on to this,
Dream we had, won't let go of it,
Hear me now, you will never be alone.
Don't listen too close, their words are like guns.
With bullets that fly and kill what you've won.
Some love to hate, and some tell you lies.
So lets make a toast, and kiss them goodbye.
We'll kiss them all goodbye.
Here I am, still hold on to this,
Dream we had, won't let go of it,
Hear me now, you will never be alone.
Here I stand, won't turn back again.
Won't leave you, know how hard it's been
Hear me now, you will never be alone.
Let's take what hurts, and write it all down.
On these paper walls, and this empty house.
And when our ink runs out, we'll burn it to the ground.
Here I am, still hold on to this,
Dream we had, won't let go of it,
Hear me now, you will never be alone.
Here I stand, won't turn back again.
Won't leave you, know how hard it's been
Hear me now, you will never be alone.
Yeah.
"Yellowcard - Cut Me, Mick" lyrics:
I can't keep this together
And I might lose this year
I can't get through December
And you know all my fears
Some place somewhere behind me
I walked right through the truth
The truth is that you're the one thing
That always pulls me through
This troubled life I choose
You are the one that I need
You know that I can still bleed
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
You bring me down from my cloud
You keep my feet on the ground
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
When I thought that I might be invincible
It wasn't long before I was invisible
To your eyes, and I swear
There's nothing left in here
And the more you say you don't care
The more I know you're there
You are the one that I need
You know that I can still bleed
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
You bring me down from my cloud
You keep my feet on the ground
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
I can't keep this together
(You are the one that I need)
I can't stay sick forever
(You know that I can still bleed)
I can't stop this disaster
(You bring me down from my cloud)
I can't fall any faster
You are the one that I need
You know that I can still bleed
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
You are the one that I need
You know that I can still bleed
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
You bring me down from my cloud
You keep my feet on the ground
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
You are the one that I need
You know that I can still bleed
You bring me down from my cloud
You keep my feet on the ground
"Yellowcard - Believe" lyrics:
Think about the love inside the strength of heart
Think about the heroes saving life in the dark
Climbing higher, through the fire
Time was running out
Never knowing you weren't going to be coming down alive
But you still came back for me
You were strong and you believed
Everything is going to be alright
Everything is going to be alright
Everything is going to be alright
Be strong, believe
(Be strong, believe)
Think about the chance I never had to say
Thank you for giving up your life that day
Never fearing, only hearing voices calling out
Let it all go, the life that you know
Just to bring them down alive
And you still came back for me
You were strong and you believed
Everything is going to be alright
Everything is going to be alright
Everything is going to be alright
Be strong, believe
Want to hold my wife when I get home
Want to tell my kids they'll never know
How much I love to see them smile
Want to make a change right here, right now
Want to live a life like you somehow
To make your sacrifice worth while
Everything is going to be alright
Everything is going to be alright
Everything is going to be alright
Be strong, believe
"Yellowcard - Sure Thing Falling" lyrics:
He likes Vampires and hitless radio
Turns it off when he hears this one song he knows
And you breathe, the window's down
You're driving I4 as you make your way back home
You ride in silence because he will not let go
And you breathe, the window's down
It's a new place that you have found
I've been up late writing books
All about heroes and crooks
One of them saves you from this
The other one steals you and then
Sure things fall
And all sure things fall
Do you remember how we used to get so high?
It didn't work at first, we tried it two more times
And we could breathe, the window's down
I was thinking of the temperature outside
Cool like the water that was running through our eyes
And you breathe, the window's down
It's a new place that we have found
I've been up late writing books
All about heroes and crooks
One of them saves you from this
The other one steals you and then
Sure things fall
And all sure things fall
He could take you all the way to Church this time
But don't forget you summed it up in fifteen lies
I've been up late writing books
All about heroes and crooks
One of them saves you from this
The other one steals you
Of all of the places I looked
And all of the pictures I took
One of them's here with me now
I'm finally finding out how
Sure things fall
All sure things fall
"Yellowcard - Hide" lyrics:
Haven't heard from you in days
I'm spreading thin what I've got taped.
And I've come down from your highest ties.
Now what the hell am I supposed to say.
Whoa. I know it feels like I let you down.
But I'm still around.
If you can't find a way to reach me,
Take your time I could be underneath you
And looking up to see you from where we used to hide.
From where we used to hide.
Busy writing thoughts tonight.
A message sent with no reply
You used to hang on my every word.
Now they never come out right.
Whoa. I know it feels like I let you down.
But I'm still a round.
If you can't find a way to reach me,
Take your time I could be underneath you
And looking up to see you from where we used to hide.
From where we used to hide.
You are invisible in this. (so invisible in this)
Your too caught up in what you missed. (caught in what you missed)
So spend what I gave, I give you more.
You are invisible in this.
If you can't find a way to reach me,
Take your time I could be underneath you
And looking up to see you from where we used to hide.
From where we used to hide.
If you can't find a way to reach me,
Take your time cause I am underneath you,
Looking up to see you from where we used to hide.
From where we used to hide.
"Yellowcard - Lights And Soundz" lyrics:
Hello you, how was the rest,
You made it through but never the less,
I got you out on a wire, you be love and ill be a liar.
Tell it all and fill up the air, but make it loud cause nobodies there
Nobodies there, nobodies there
Stop, turn, take a look around,
At all of the lights and sounds,
Let them bring you in
Slow, burn, let it all fade out
And pull the curtain down,
Wonder where you've been
Make it new but stay in the lines, just let go,
Keep it inside, smile big for everyone, even when you know what they've done.
They gave you the end but not where to start, not how to build, how to tare it apart,
So Tell it all and fill up the air, but make it loud cause nobodies there,
Nobodies there, nobodies there
Stop, turn, take a look around,
At all of the lights and sounds,
Let them bring you in
Slow, burn, let it all fade out,
And pull the curtain down,
Wonder where you've been
I've got a way to work this out, I got a way and you know how
I've got a way to work this out, I got a way and you know how
I've got a way to work this out, I got a way
I've got a way to work this out, I got a way and you know how
I've got a way to work this out, I got a way and you know how
I've got a way to work this out, I got a way
I've got a way to work this out, I got a way and you know how
I've got a way to work this out, I got a way and you know how
I've got a way to work this out, I got a way
Stop, turn, take a look around,
At all of the lights and sounds,
Let them bring you in
Slow, burn, let it all fade out
And pull the curtain down,
Wonder where you've been
You've earned everything you've found and painted faces frown,
I'll say I knew you when
"Yellowcard - Awakening" lyrics:
Bottoms up tonight
I drink to you and I
'Cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass
I will break the past
'Cause with the morning I can open my eyes
I want this to be my awakening
I give this one to you
An anthem full of truth
I tell you now an epic tale of what you put me through
And even though you don't
Deserve one of your own
A melody, a song about the life that you let go
I can't believe that I still care enough to write
Bottoms up tonight
I drink to you and I
'Cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass
I will break the past
'Cause with the morning I can open my eyes
I want this to be my awakening
Yes I miss you still
And probably always will
I'm living with a busted heart that I will have until
I find the strength I know
It's somewhere in my bones
To pull the curtain up again and get on with this show
At least you know that I still care enough to write
Bottoms up tonight
I drink to you and I
'Cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass
I will break the past
'Cause with the morning I can open my eyes
And maybe I will see
A different destiny
Like knowing you at all
Was only a bad dream
I want this to be my awakening
No rest for the wicked they say
Forgive me if I try to change
No rest for the wicked they say
Forgive me if I try to change
Bottoms up tonight
I drink to you and I
'Cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass
I will break the past
'Cause with the morning I can open my eyes
And maybe I will see
A different destiny
Like maybe knowing you at all
Was only a bad dream
I want this to be my awakening
"Yellowcard - The Takedown" lyrics:
I feel things changing when I move
(Its a distance, Its a difference)
I'll cross this planet without you
(and you might call this a downfall)
Its one long night that I'm passing through
(Its a dark one what have I done)
Its one long night...
Don't turn your back on me now
You can't do this
Don't say you can live without
You can't do this alone
How did I end up like this, the lonely one,
Your greatest take down?
You take me down
Left last night with a long goodbye
(We cement why, through a phone line)
I told you thoughts that multiply
(That I don't know how to let go)
We've been here many times before
(I am empty, when you leave me)
What's one more?
Don't turn your back on me now
You can't do this
Don't say you can live without
You can do this alone
How did I end up like this, the broken one,
Your greatest take down?
You take me down
You take me down
I won't get by
I won't heal in time
I won't get by
Don't turn your back on me now
You can't do this
Don't say you can't live without
You can do this alone
How did I end up like this, the chosen one,
Your greatest take down?
