Anyone, Anyone lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
I'm not sure of anyone, anyone
But I've got plans
I'm not asking for everything but sure I could use a hand
Get a little anxious
Sometimes you'll be gone and I'll be left behind
Get a little nervous
Sometimes it'll be my cue and I'll forget my lines
Get a little lost look
And some staring from the corner of my eye
Never really mastered disinterest
I can't see how
The way that you leave me alone makes us close
I must be out of touch
I won't ask you
To give up on the things that seem to keep you gone
But I can be gone too
Feel a little sorry
Sometimes you're not here when I am writing
Feels a little awkward
Sometimes you won't talk but we're not fighting
You hold on to your secrets
And I'm not privy to what is on your mind
But I can't help but feel tired
So tired, so tired, so tired
So tired
But I've got plans
I'm not asking for everything but sure I could use a hand
Get a little anxious
Sometimes you'll be gone and I'll be left behind
Get a little nervous
Sometimes it'll be my cue and I'll forget my lines
Get a little lost look
And some staring from the corner of my eye
Never really mastered disinterest
I can't see how
The way that you leave me alone makes us close
I must be out of touch
I won't ask you
To give up on the things that seem to keep you gone
But I can be gone too
Feel a little sorry
Sometimes you're not here when I am writing
Feels a little awkward
Sometimes you won't talk but we're not fighting
You hold on to your secrets
And I'm not privy to what is on your mind
But I can't help but feel tired
So tired, so tired, so tired
So tired
Awake lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
Awake
Through the years it takes to see you
'Til I almost lose my mind
'Cause I'll never be alright
And I'm sorry you had to see this
But I'm such a mess
And I never could forget
I'm scared I'll miss the way we use to talk
And if its all forever lost don't wanna know
I'm scared that you're the one that got away
And I want you here with me tonight you never come
I'm scared I'll miss the way we use to talk
And if its all forever lost don't wanna know
I'm scared that you're the one that got away
And I want you here with me tonight you never come
Through the years it takes to see you
'Til I almost lose my mind
'Cause I'll never be alright
And I'm sorry you had to see this
But I'm such a mess
And I never could forget
I'm scared I'll miss the way we use to talk
And if its all forever lost don't wanna know
I'm scared that you're the one that got away
And I want you here with me tonight you never come
I'm scared I'll miss the way we use to talk
And if its all forever lost don't wanna know
I'm scared that you're the one that got away
And I want you here with me tonight you never come
Broken Hearts And Concrete Floors lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
I'm always assuming the worst
But you're going on none the less
And there's nothing to cushion your heart
Let it fall
Letters from further away
Keep pulling me close to home
And there's something to cushion
My callous eyes
And I know that you hope for longer goodbyes
Embracing for forever
And falling in your eyes
In your eyes, your eyes
Pouring over photographs, I'm living in your letters
Breathe deeply from this envelope it smells like you
And I can't be without that scent, it's filling me
With all you mean to me, to me
Continually failing these trials
But you stand by me none the less
And you won't let me sink though I'm begging you
I'm begging you
Phone calls from further away
And messages on my machine
But I don't ever tell you
This distance seems terrible
There's no need to test my heart with useless space
These roads go on forever
They'll always be a place
For you, in my heart
So I'll hit the pavement it's gotta be better then waiting
And pushing you far away 'cause I'm scared
So I'll take my chances and head on my way up there
'Cause turning to you is like falling love when you're ten
But you're going on none the less
And there's nothing to cushion your heart
Let it fall
Letters from further away
Keep pulling me close to home
And there's something to cushion
My callous eyes
And I know that you hope for longer goodbyes
Embracing for forever
And falling in your eyes
In your eyes, your eyes
Pouring over photographs, I'm living in your letters
Breathe deeply from this envelope it smells like you
And I can't be without that scent, it's filling me
With all you mean to me, to me
Continually failing these trials
But you stand by me none the less
And you won't let me sink though I'm begging you
I'm begging you
Phone calls from further away
And messages on my machine
But I don't ever tell you
This distance seems terrible
There's no need to test my heart with useless space
These roads go on forever
They'll always be a place
For you, in my heart
So I'll hit the pavement it's gotta be better then waiting
And pushing you far away 'cause I'm scared
So I'll take my chances and head on my way up there
'Cause turning to you is like falling love when you're ten
Crazy lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
(originally by The Afghan Whigs)
Whatever did happen to your soul?
I heard you sold it
To some old boy who lived uptown
Who could afford it
So what's gonna happen to you now?
Therapy? The pharmacy?
Crazy, that's what you'd like to believe
But it ain't easy
When you're going crazy
Over the rainbow
I think your story's jive, she said
There ain't nothing wrong with me
If I use it to get me some sympathy
Some ecstasy, a memory, I wanna remember me
Crazy, that's what you'd like to believe
But it ain't easy
When you're going crazy
Over the rainbow
Crazy, crazy over you
Crazy without you
Crazy without you
Crazy over you
Whatever did happen to your soul?
I heard you sold it
To some old boy who lived uptown
Who could afford it
So what's gonna happen to you now?
Therapy? The pharmacy?
Crazy, that's what you'd like to believe
But it ain't easy
When you're going crazy
Over the rainbow
I think your story's jive, she said
There ain't nothing wrong with me
If I use it to get me some sympathy
Some ecstasy, a memory, I wanna remember me
Crazy, that's what you'd like to believe
But it ain't easy
When you're going crazy
Over the rainbow
Crazy, crazy over you
Crazy without you
Crazy without you
Crazy over you
Drowning lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
Am I drowning you out?
Boasts of defection
If everything was up to me,
I would be gone by the first sight
The first sight of hope I'd be packed up and out on my way.
Time has been spread so thin
And it's just hours 'fore the day begins.
And the things that are keepin' you here are not keepin' me here.
The things that are keepin' you here
will keep me away.
And "You'll be sorry", isn't that what they'll say?
Don't follow your heart 'cause it just seems to get in your way.
And don't ever leave here
and mope at your leisure and straighten out your crease dear
and truth is in a tall beer
Are you drowning your fears?
Pasts of deception
When everything is hazy then everything will be OK
When everything is hazy then you won't be sad that you stayed.
Time has been spread so thin
And it's just hours 'til the day begins.
And the things that are keepin' you here are not keeping me here.
The things that are keeping you here will keep me away
And "You'll be sorry", isn't that what they'll say?
Don't follow your heart 'cause it just seems to get in your way
And don't ever leave here
and mope at your leisure and straighten out your crease dear,
and truth is in a tall beer...
That's the end
That's the end
That's the end...
Boasts of defection
If everything was up to me,
I would be gone by the first sight
The first sight of hope I'd be packed up and out on my way.
Time has been spread so thin
And it's just hours 'fore the day begins.
And the things that are keepin' you here are not keepin' me here.
The things that are keepin' you here
will keep me away.
And "You'll be sorry", isn't that what they'll say?
Don't follow your heart 'cause it just seems to get in your way.
And don't ever leave here
and mope at your leisure and straighten out your crease dear
and truth is in a tall beer
Are you drowning your fears?
Pasts of deception
When everything is hazy then everything will be OK
When everything is hazy then you won't be sad that you stayed.
Time has been spread so thin
And it's just hours 'til the day begins.
And the things that are keepin' you here are not keeping me here.
The things that are keeping you here will keep me away
And "You'll be sorry", isn't that what they'll say?
Don't follow your heart 'cause it just seems to get in your way
And don't ever leave here
and mope at your leisure and straighten out your crease dear,
and truth is in a tall beer...
That's the end
That's the end
That's the end...
El Scorcho lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
(originally by Weezer)
Goddamn you half-Japanese girls
Do it to me every time
Oh, the redhead said you shred the cello
And I'm jello, baby
But you won't talk, won't look, won't think of me
I'm the epitome of public enemy
Why you wanna go and do me like that?
Come down on the street and dance with me
I'm a lot like you so please, hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me
I asked you to go to the Green Day concert
You said you never heard of them (how cool is that)
How cool is that?
So I went to your room and read your diary:
Watching Grunge leg drop New-Jack through a presstable...
And then my heart stopped:
Listening to Cio-Cio San, fall in love all over again.
I'm a lot like you so please, hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me
How stupid is it? I can't talk about it
I gotta sing about it and make a record of my heart
How stupid is it? Won't you gimme a minute
Just come up to me
And say hello to my heart
How stupid is it? For all I know you want me too
And maybe you just don't know what to do
Or maybe you're scared to say: 'I'm falling for you'
I wish I could get my head out of the sand
Cos I think we'd make a good team
And you would keep my fingernails clean
But that's just a stupid dream that I won't realize
Cos I can't even look in your eyes without shaking, and I ain't faking
I'll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon
I'm a lot like you so please, hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me
I'm a lot like you
I'm a lot like you
I'm a lot like you
And I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me
Goddamn you half-Japanese girls
Do it to me every time
Oh, the redhead said you shred the cello
And I'm jello, baby
But you won't talk, won't look, won't think of me
I'm the epitome of public enemy
Why you wanna go and do me like that?
Come down on the street and dance with me
I'm a lot like you so please, hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me
I asked you to go to the Green Day concert
You said you never heard of them (how cool is that)
How cool is that?

Everybody Hurts lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
(originally by R.E.M.)
When the day is long and the night
The night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough
Of this life to hang on
Don't let yourself go
'Cause everybody cries
Everybody hurts sometimes
Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone
If you feel like letting go
When you think you've had too much
Of this life, to hang on
'Cause everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
And everybody hurts
Don't throw your hand
Oh no, don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone
No, no, no, you're not alone
If you're on your own in this life
And the days and nights are long
When you think you've had too much
Of this life, to hang on
Everybody hurts, sometimes everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes
So hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on
When the day is long and the night
The night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough
Of this life to hang on
Don't let yourself go
'Cause everybody cries
Everybody hurts sometimes
Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone
If you feel like letting go
When you think you've had too much
Of this life, to hang on
'Cause everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
And everybody hurts
Don't throw your hand
Oh no, don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone
No, no, no, you're not alone
If you're on your own in this life
And the days and nights are long
When you think you've had too much
Of this life, to hang on
Everybody hurts, sometimes everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes
So hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on
Finishing School lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
[from "Jennifer's Body" soundtrack]
Oh, alright dear, have a nice year
Teach the mean girls how to be feared
And turn the weak ones into servants
You can't be satisfied
You just want what you can't have
Oh no, not again, the shudders, the shaking
Oh no, not again, the faint and the faking
Oh no, oh no, love, it's not what you're thinking
I've just had enough of your finishing school
Oh, alright love, here's the good stuff
You can have it if you want it
But you want what you can't have
Oh no, not again, the shudders, the shaking
Oh no, not again, the faint and the faking
Oh no, oh no, love, it's not what you're thinking
I've just had enough of your finishing school
Oh no, not again, the shudders, the shaking
Oh no, not again, the faint and the faking
Oh no, oh no, love, it's not what you're thinking
I've just had enough
Oh no, not again, oh no, not again, oh no, not again
I've just had enough of your finishing school
Oh, alright dear, have a nice year
Teach the mean girls how to be feared
And turn the weak ones into servants
You can't be satisfied
You just want what you can't have
Oh no, not again, the shudders, the shaking
Oh no, not again, the faint and the faking
Oh no, oh no, love, it's not what you're thinking
I've just had enough of your finishing school
Oh, alright love, here's the good stuff
You can have it if you want it
But you want what you can't have
Oh no, not again, the shudders, the shaking
Oh no, not again, the faint and the faking
Oh no, oh no, love, it's not what you're thinking
I've just had enough of your finishing school
Oh no, not again, the shudders, the shaking
Oh no, not again, the faint and the faking
Oh no, oh no, love, it's not what you're thinking
I've just had enough
Oh no, not again, oh no, not again, oh no, not again
I've just had enough of your finishing school
For Justin lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
It's been a year now, since you were here now
And I've been trying to heal inside
Dedications have all been placed
And I see your resemblance in my face
And on our birthday I said an extra wish for you, for you
And I have learned so much since you've been gone
And I have done so little for so long
So now I'll settle up these grievances and focus on the savory
And wave all these discrepancies away
And I'll peter out these misconceptions, give out faith at my discretion
Live a life that you would think was sane, sane
Displaying changes, being made
And I wonder if you ever really wanted it this way
And in your memory they even hung a plaque for you, for you
And I have learned so much since you've been gone
And I have done so little for so long
So now I'll settle up these grievances and focus on the savory
And wave all these discrepancies away
And I'll peter out these misconceptions, give out faith at my discretion
Live a life that would think was sane, sane
And I've been trying to heal inside
Dedications have all been placed
And I see your resemblance in my face
And on our birthday I said an extra wish for you, for you
And I have learned so much since you've been gone
And I have done so little for so long
So now I'll settle up these grievances and focus on the savory
And wave all these discrepancies away
And I'll peter out these misconceptions, give out faith at my discretion
Live a life that you would think was sane, sane
Displaying changes, being made
And I wonder if you ever really wanted it this way
And in your memory they even hung a plaque for you, for you
And I have learned so much since you've been gone
And I have done so little for so long
So now I'll settle up these grievances and focus on the savory
And wave all these discrepancies away
And I'll peter out these misconceptions, give out faith at my discretion
Live a life that would think was sane, sane
Heart Beat Here lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
Come on home let yourself heal
You could sleep for a thousand years
And I won't let you disappear
Let your heart beat here
You've been running far and wide
Chasing what you feel inside
Doing what you hope is right
Well, I will take your path as mine
I feel it in my ribs
I feel it in my soul
The pulse just grows
So loud and so clear
Let your heart beat here
Let your heart beat here
Winters come to take me away
I wear my ring to know what's at stake
And when the days work at their own pace
You'll remain my time and place
I feel it in my ribs
I feel it in my soul
The pulse just grows
So loud and so clear
Let your heart beat here
Let your heart beat here
We found our way past our youthful fears
And fought our way through the pain and tears
And we drove our stakes in the place most dear
And our hearts beat here
I feel it in my ribs
I feel it in my soul
The pulse just grows
So loud and so so clear
Let your heart beat here
So loud and so clear
Let your heart beat here
Let your heart beat here
Let your heart beat here
You could sleep for a thousand years
And I won't let you disappear
Let your heart beat here
You've been running far and wide
Chasing what you feel inside
Doing what you hope is right
Well, I will take your path as mine
I feel it in my ribs
I feel it in my soul
The pulse just grows
So loud and so clear
Let your heart beat here
Let your heart beat here
Winters come to take me away
I wear my ring to know what's at stake
And when the days work at their own pace
You'll remain my time and place
I feel it in my ribs
I feel it in my soul
The pulse just grows
So loud and so clear
Let your heart beat here
Let your heart beat here
We found our way past our youthful fears
And fought our way through the pain and tears
And we drove our stakes in the place most dear
And our hearts beat here
I feel it in my ribs
I feel it in my soul
The pulse just grows
So loud and so so clear
Let your heart beat here
So loud and so clear
Let your heart beat here
Let your heart beat here
Let your heart beat here
I Need A Sure Thing lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
You are a razor blade
You are precision-cut
You are a stare sharp as the tack in my eye?
At rest in my veins
[Your pulse in my neck?]
As sharp-edged as questions the time I have left
And so you are on my mind.
I need a burning stake
I need a piercing dart
I need something as hot as it is sharp
And I need to bleed
I need to burn
I need a sure thing
I need a sure thing
And you are a mystery to me
You are a paper bird
Folded and folded and creased
And bent and shaped from a five dollar bill
It's priceless to me
And never spent
It hangs from a ceiling fan over my bed
And so you are on my mind
I need a burning stake
I need a piercing dart
I need something as hot as it is sharp
And I need to bleed
I need to burn
I need a sure thing
And you are a mystery to me
I'll hang my hopes all at once on a rope
There's a possibility that this is happening to someone who's not me
I'll hold my head
Keep it still and pretend
That these spins and the webs
Are actually desirable
I need a burning stake
I need a piercing dart
I need something as hot as it is sharp
And I need to bleed I need to burn
I need a sure thing
And you are a mystery to me
You are precision-cut
You are a stare sharp as the tack in my eye?
At rest in my veins
[Your pulse in my neck?]
As sharp-edged as questions the time I have left
And so you are on my mind.
I need a burning stake
I need a piercing dart
I need something as hot as it is sharp
And I need to bleed
I need to burn
I need a sure thing
I need a sure thing
And you are a mystery to me
You are a paper bird
Folded and folded and creased
And bent and shaped from a five dollar bill
It's priceless to me
And never spent
It hangs from a ceiling fan over my bed
And so you are on my mind
I need a burning stake
I need a piercing dart
I need something as hot as it is sharp
And I need to bleed
I need to burn
I need a sure thing
And you are a mystery to me
I'll hang my hopes all at once on a rope
There's a possibility that this is happening to someone who's not me
I'll hold my head
Keep it still and pretend
That these spins and the webs
Are actually desirable
I need a burning stake
I need a piercing dart
I need something as hot as it is sharp
And I need to bleed I need to burn
I need a sure thing
And you are a mystery to me

Jamie, what you doing now?
What you doing now girl?
Please, please tell me
Cause I need to know, I need to know now
When I was down, you came to me
And promised you'd always be
By my side, now you're gone
And I'm waiting patiently

This Old Wound lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
I've been bleeding well from this old wound,
Cleaning it with salt, so it will still feel new.
Sometimes eyes turn black, and sometimes scars are tracks.
But everytime you're gone,
I wish that you'd come back.
And everyone watched me waste myself,
and everyone cheered at last.
And all of them found it comforting.
It's better it's me, than them.
I think I'm doing well from what they say,
They've taken both my belts
And shoelaces away.
But I believe in luck...
I think I do.
Well I believe for sure,
If ever I see you.
I've been fanning flames from these old coals.
Feeding them with tender, and hoping they will grow.
And I've been savoring what I can't hold.
A blind belief in goodness
That doesn't seem to show.
And I've been bleeding well from this old wound.
Cleaning it with salt, so it will still feel new.
Cleaning it with salt, so it will still feel new.
Sometimes eyes turn black, and sometimes scars are tracks.
But everytime you're gone,
I wish that you'd come back.
And everyone watched me waste myself,
and everyone cheered at last.
And all of them found it comforting.
It's better it's me, than them.
I think I'm doing well from what they say,
They've taken both my belts
And shoelaces away.
But I believe in luck...
I think I do.
Well I believe for sure,
If ever I see you.
I've been fanning flames from these old coals.
Feeding them with tender, and hoping they will grow.
And I've been savoring what I can't hold.
A blind belief in goodness
That doesn't seem to show.
And I've been bleeding well from this old wound.
Cleaning it with salt, so it will still feel new.
Vindicated lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
[from "Spiderman 2" soundtrack]
Hope dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
Winding in and winding out
The shine of it has caught my eye
And roped me in
So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing
I am captivated
[Chorus]
I am Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
So clear
Like the diamond in your ring
Cut to mirror your intentions
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me so isolated, so motivated
I am certain now that
[Chorus]
So turn
Up the corners of your lips
Part them and feel my finger tips
Trace the moment, fall forever
Defense is paper thin
Just one touch and I'd be in
Too deep now to ever swim against the current
So let me slip away [3x]
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away [4x]
[Chorus]
Slight hope
It dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption...
Hope dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
Winding in and winding out
The shine of it has caught my eye
And roped me in
So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing
I am captivated
[Chorus]
I am Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I'm right
I swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
So clear
Like the diamond in your ring
Cut to mirror your intentions
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me so isolated, so motivated
I am certain now that
[Chorus]
So turn
Up the corners of your lips
Part them and feel my finger tips
Trace the moment, fall forever
Defense is paper thin
Just one touch and I'd be in
Too deep now to ever swim against the current
So let me slip away [3x]
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away [4x]
[Chorus]
Slight hope
It dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption...
Warmth Of The Sand lyrics - Dashboard Confessional
Relax and stand in the warmth of the sand
the day is long
and here for us to take for granted.
We find ourselves to our knees
Water clear, a tender breeze upon our faces
as we bask in our good graces
Yeah, we all are golden here.
And summer, and summer,
where night belongs to lust and lovers.
And summer, and summer,
and I am here to win you over.
You will be mine this year. (this year that's right this is the one this year, this year)
The sun is set and the moon is high,
The night is long and here for you and I to capture (it's for us)
And flood ourselves to the gills with icey drinks
With bolstering wills and we are braver for the moment
Yeah, we all are golden here
And summer, and summer,
where all the girls bare olive shoulders,
and summer, and summer,
and I am here to win you over.
You will be mine this year. (this year)
The courtyard where the garden stands,
Behind the beach, in crystal and sands, we shed our clothes,
And felt romantic, tinted by the moon fantastic.
Bright and warm, and hours alone absolve us of the sins we own.
And from one year into another I think of you when I feel summer.
And summer, and summer, where all the girls bear olive shoulders
And summer, and summer, where all you hope for is another
And summer, and summer, where night belongs to lust and lovers
And summer, and summer, and I am here to win you over
You will be mine this year. (This year)
the day is long
and here for us to take for granted.
We find ourselves to our knees
Water clear, a tender breeze upon our faces
as we bask in our good graces
Yeah, we all are golden here.
And summer, and summer,
where night belongs to lust and lovers.
And summer, and summer,
and I am here to win you over.
You will be mine this year. (this year that's right this is the one this year, this year)
The sun is set and the moon is high,
The night is long and here for you and I to capture (it's for us)
And flood ourselves to the gills with icey drinks
With bolstering wills and we are braver for the moment
Yeah, we all are golden here
And summer, and summer,
where all the girls bare olive shoulders,

and I am here to win you over.
