- all on black
I put it all on black, no color you're all dressed in
And a stab in the back left you bleeding on the floor
And I'm mourning the death, the recent passing of your insides
I smile in regret every time I think of how I spoke to you
I put it all in back of my mind where I hold you
I'm just trying to keep track how far back it really goes
And I'm living in lack of the blood sent from the heavens
- Back to Hell
Like the pills in your hand, I'll never let you down
And like the bugs in your bed, under my skin now
Devouring all that's left of me
Devouring all that's left of me
In the palm of your hand, a resting place
All the guilt in the land resting on me
And we're crushing beneath it, falling beside ourselves
- Balanced On A Shelf
A somewhat inviting, very different of kind of hell.
To live, without ever looking at yourself.
You see life is so much simpler when it's balanced on a shelf.
That's been unperfectly placed there in the sun.
Now look at how your admired by everyone,
Who sees you.
Now they know your name.
But is it real?
- Blue Carolina
It’s everything that I can do right now
To not think about you moving further off
With every passing second
Every night of this lonely summertime
I feel it missing from my heart
A part was kicked back from my soul
Well I can hardly wait
Until I get the sun and your lips both pressing on my skin
- Blue In The Face
It's about time that I came clean with you
I'm no longer fine, I'm no longer running smooth
I thought that I found myself under something new
Just one more line I repeat over and over again
'Till I'm blue in the face with a choking regret
Because I talk in circles 'round you on my bed
Can't say I blame you one bit when you kept it all inside
When you left that night
- Buried

- Burn
Alkaline Trio - Burn
Альбом: Crimson, Underworld Evolution
There's a lightning storm each and every night
Crashing inside you like motorbikes
We toss and turn, sleep so loud
Grind the teeth in our empty mouths
- Calling All Skeletons
Here it is again, yet it stings like the first time
Seems it never ends, double nickels on your dime
I thought we were friends, I guess it just depends who you ask
These feelings tend to leave me with a hole in my chest
A hole, a hole in my chest
Yeah, hole, a hole in my chest
- Clavicle
Been on top of the world since about six months ago,
Marking the first time I laid eyes on you.
I lost all train of thought as I entered the room,
Saw what looked like really good food then I saw you and so did you.
I wanna wake up naked next to you,
Kissing the curve in your clavicle.
Kissing your clavicle.
- Cooking Wine
Sorry I'm late
I was out spoiling my liver
I couldn't wait
The sun was up for far too long today
And I can't see straight
But the two of you look awfully pretty
And I couldn't wait
I've been awake for far too long today
- Crawl
Waking up zeroed in on
medicine
Am I waking up at all today
Seeing lights, feeling pain
There's my cure on ice
I can walk but I will crawl there
I will crawl there
Sitting straight, feeling faint
- Cringe
Wide eyed.
Knee deep in surprise.
Just below your thighs the temperature drops 5 degrees.
Your stand-by flight has just arrived.
Tongue-tied bleeding from your eyes.
even Christ himself would cringe at the sight of your scars
While you're counting sheep,
I'll count my lucky stars.
- Dead End Road
I've got a regular problem
So my standard break from life is in order
I'm having trouble making sentences
I'm older but I don't feel any smarter
You see I don't know what I said to you
And now you're pissed at you know who
And I guess I deserve it
I wish I could waste my time without wasting all your time
- Dead On The Floor
Like two ships in the night we're
colliding and sinking
Into the black sea of our love
Navigated past the point of logical
thinking
Lost sight of the stars up above
Now my heart is a mess, murder
scene in my chest
- Dethbed
Calling all cars, all coroners, we've got a dead one here
And anybody else receiving this, the west coast is far from clear
Like a time bomb or sudden death
It's gonna find you when you least expect
It's gonna leave you with the emptiest feeling inside (over analyzed)
They found me face-down in the street on the night you left to find,
Another place to sleep in rain and regret
- Dine, Dine My Darling
Don't leave me alone,
I'm waiting for this to be,
The last thing that i see.
Well if the drugs were good,
Then I probably could, get a couple
more days,
But the drugs are lame.
So I'm looking for you to be,
- Do You Wanna Know
So hello where are we today
Still fighting, still running in place
Now the outline of this lake
Seems to be pointing me away
Honestly I've never lied more to myself
All over the floor, right through my teeth I've showed you
Just how weak my knees can get so
- Don't Say You Won't
it's a girl in here, not as sweet as you
it's a guy like me, some bad tattoos
an empty bar filling up with smoke
and i cry in the ashes, I'm 3 days old
so please don't say you wont be going out today
cause anywhere i go, wont be anything,
if your not hanging around
- Dorothy
Like the flutter of your fingertips,
Like the flickering of lights,
They've got their bright ideas but
we've got bigger fish to fry.
Found you out there on your
doorstep,
Undressed to the nines.
From your Sunday best, black and
- Draculina
What ever happened to Wonderland
Where'd Alice go? Oh
I took a night dream with knife in hand
And cut out to the next show,
back in her living hell.
I wish to dwell, I long to be,
in the blood and the guts with the
Birds of prey and the stinging of bees
- Eating Me Alive
Well I found you outside like a sunrise.
It melted my eyes from my skull.
As I turned into ash before my sweet demise,
The end of me was so beautiful.
Now you're stuck in my head like a lovesong
That climbed to the top of the charts.
How the fuck could something be so right and so wrong?
All the wrong words but all the right parts.
- Emma
Emma appeared like an angel
Emma fell like rain
Into my lap like a heart attack, like lightning from her name
I'm running dry of bad excuses
Don't want to lie or seem intrusive
But time hasn't told me anything, and neither has she
A poinsettia in poison rain
- Enjoy Your Day
so where'd you go?
how was your vacation home?
well obviously you were busy,
too busy for me.
so this is how you leave me?
i'm broken hearted on the floor.
my tears seep through the crack under my door.
where i am locked in, shut down.
- Every Thug Needs A Lady
I know it's dark here, you know that I'm scared too
For some reason right now, of everything but you
Right now you're all that I recognize
You know I came here when I needed your soft voice
I needed to hear something that sounded like an answer
Now I wait here, and sometimes I get one
It's nothing I'll forget when the moon gets tired
You are stuck to me everyday
- Exploding Boy
i couldn't hear a word you said,
i couldn't hear at all.
you talked until your tongue fell out
and then you talked some more.
i knew if i turned
i knew if i turned,
i'd turn away from you.
- Fall Victim
Not sure how this is supposed to feel
Cutting like a red hot knife of surgical steel
Brought fresh from the autoclave
She came, she came with sterile warnings screaming from her blade
Singing, I wanna make you bleed
I watched them fall in line, as I fell victim
To double suicide on your television
- Fine
It's gonna rain like this for days,
I'm gonna drown in my old ways,
But I'm fine.
I'm fine.
It's gonna hurt like hell
When you pull back the hammer and fire,
But I'm fine
- Fine Without You
Well I'll sit here to convince myself it's true.
If you keep on telling your friends that we're through.
I've got nothing here but loneliness
Holes in walls and bleeding fists.
My head is pounding like a pillow, like a big black song.
Well my friends and I try to tell me you're gone.
Won't listen to myself or anyone.
- Hating Every Minute
Sit down, please make yourself comfortable...
I might need some time
to dance around what I need to say,
I love you to death, I think I need a break.
I spend my days worried out loud,
I gag in my head, I choke it back down.
It hurts me inside to save you inside,
- Hell Yes
I gave up on you a long time ago
How can you blame me?
We made plans to meet and you never showed
You kept me waiting
They said everything would work out just fine
They said you'd help me
But as it turns out it was all a lie
And they're off someplace far away laughing at me
- Help Me
Here you find me in between
Heaven and Hell my dear
Where nothing's what it seems
It's just as well I fear
I'm giving you the creeps
And a farewell kiss to go into the unknown
Saw you standing there
- I Found A Way
Storming through the dark with a broken heart
All alone at it once again
Seeping in like a feeling
You haven't felt since way back when
In the dead of that night
Like the summer of Sam
I got word of the promotion
You caused me a telegram
- I Wanna Be A Warhol
I wanna be a little piece of history
Let’s go!
I wanna be a painting for all to see
Let’s go!
Take a trip, take a big hand full of these
And swallow
Just a headache, a fuzzy memory tomorrow
- I, Pessimist
I give thanks to the waning moon
'Cause I'm working for a total blackout
The sun used to be one of my favorite drugs
Looks like that one's gonna kill us all
Disappear, disappear
I don't need this body
It's so clear, way too clear
- I'm Dying Tomorrow
I'm dying tomorrow
In this house, this street, Chicago
I'm dying tomorrow
Did I, did I do it right?
Did I remember to sleep in
Take lots of pills
Commit Irreversible sins?
- I'm Only Here To Disappoint
I'm hurtin'
For someone else to feel this pain
Are you hurtin' too?
I'm desperate
So desperate
But I won't get my hopes up
I'll just get all my ropes taught
After all
- In Vein
My point of reference makes me afraid to begin convincing,
But you might as well just change your name.
'Cause I only recognize this shadow,
Kinda blackened superhero with nobody's best interests in mind.
Now there's blood in the water, that heart bleeds from this stone here,
And we turned into our cheap wine.
And I swallowed every drop, yes, I could feel my stomach rot,
- Into the Night
We'll never know which way this road is gonna turn
and can't be sure how quick your wick is gonna burn
so sing to me your darkest secrets
time to leave behind your regrets
before we get lost in a blink of an eye
This carrion has been forgotten
left for dead in the sun rotting
- Jaked On Green Beers
It's been a long time since I've been close to you
It's been a long time since I've been sad.
It's been a while since I've really spent time with you
Wish I could take back the times that I had.
The only thing that you ever really did for me
Was make me oh so miserable.
And the hope that I never see your face again
Is anything but questionable.
- Kiss You To Death
I'm takin' a ride down to your place
I'll be droppin' by tonight
You'll hear me coming from miles away
Screaming banshees haunting my motorbike
Takin' a ride down to your place
Be droppin' by in just a little while
And I don't care if we f*ck or we talk or we cry
- Lead Poisoning
Choking slowly, brokenhearted
Don't look now, here's what you
started
I swore I'd be there 'til the end,
we're bitter now but better friends
I climbed out limbless to the ledge
to bask in my last true regret
Lay my heavy head here down to
- Live Young, Die Fast
It's not big surprise
We turned out this way
It's in our eyes
Like shallow graves
But we are one with
the larva and dirt
We don't discriminate at all
For what it's worth
- Lost And Rendered
Found out the hard way
That you were lost and rendered
All alone in the dark forest of your thoughts
Forever following a trail of fear that seems to lead
To more dead ends and mysteries
I'm losing hope of ever solving
Can anybody hear me?
- Love Love, Kiss Kiss
Take a look, you see I painted you a picture
It's black and white, except the blood's a little richer
Down in the corner where I gave it my signature
Then I titled it, "This one's for the winter"
Check it out you see it's just a big disaster
I'll dedicate it to the fact that it's so hard for you to dream
A million heartbeats all around you make it hard to sleep
- Love Love, Kiss Kiss ,Bla Bla.
Take a look, you see I painted you a picture
It's black and white, except the blood's a little richer
Down in the corner where I gave it my signature
Then I titled it, "This one's for the winter"
Check it out you see it's just a big disaster
I'll dedicate it to the fact that it's so hard for you to dream
A million heartbeats all around you make it hard to sleep
- Madam Me
The sunrise fills your eyes.
Cannot hear your cries.
Pleading, please just go away.
I can't take another day of this.
No surprise.
A surplus of lies.
Freed from the skies.
Is there something that I missed?
- Maybe I'll Catch Fire
This house is full of ears,
But I can't talk to anyone.
They've heard this one a thousand times.
Most exciting thing I do,
Hang half way out a third floor window,
Maybe throw lit cigarettes down.
And maybe I'll catch fire.
- Mercy Me
It's been a long day living with this
It's been a long time since I felt so sick
I took a long walk straight back home
I could've walked back to San Francisco
I used to long for time alone
I used to long for a place of my own
now I'm losing faith in everything
I'm lost, so lost, i'm lost at sea, you'll see
- Mr. Chainsaw
When was it that you lost your youth or traded
It for something more for them to use so jaded
Why is it that you never said
I love you more than just a friend
I pray this gridlock never ends
And when we get there just depends
I found out recently that you are leaving
For good I hope I softly tell my ceiling
- My Standard Break From Life
"My Standard Break From Life"
I've got a regular problem
So my standard break from life is in order
I'm having trouble making sentences
I'm older but I don't feel any smarter
You see I don't know what I said to you
And now you're pissed at you know who
- Nose Over Tail
Crack my head open on your kitchen floor
To prove to you that I have brains
Meanwhile tin men are led by little girls
Down golden roads that lead to nowhere
Fine time to fake a seizure
Feel your mouth on mine, you're saving me
- Off The Map
I needed more wine, you needed
more sleep
We just fought two hours and
seven minutes, honestly I'm
surprised we made it
I retire to my chair, I grab my new
guitar
But I can't make a sound, you could
- One Hundred Stories
You're in the next room sleeping and I'm shouting out a song for you
I shouldn't wake you over the furnace, but I should swear to someone you'd have loved every note
So dream a good one tonight
I'll listen to the bad ones when they come
Get up in my ear 'till I hear every word
Every turn of your tongue, I will tighten my grip
No one could tell even if I fell 100 stories straight down, down, down
No one could tell even if I fell 100 stories down
- Only Love
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh
How young are you gonna be when you die?
I guess I never really thought about that
You're dying when you start thinking like that
All I know is time is undefeated so far
Get right with god before it's time
- Piss And Vinegar
Well, I'm piss and vinegar again
And I hiss and I rattle and shed
And I encircle you like a bird on a
school
As you slowly fight your way to
shore
Well, I'm piss and vinegar again
And I needed this like a new hole in
- Prevent This Tragedy
Here we are again with handguns for hearts
They had a master plan, wanted to tear us apart
Nothing to hold. I'll hope to lead it
Our demise has been completed now
Nowhere left to go but
Down, the flames of hell they give me hope
I drowned in oceans of this tragic part of
- Private Eye
I dragged this lake looking for corpses
Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards
Pieces of planes and black box recorders
Don't lie
And I've been preoccupied with these sick, sick senses
That sense dna on barbed wire fences
Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect
That has no alibi
- Queen Of Pain
There's a fire forming, not too far from here
Along the east coast maybe, it resides in you, my dear
Worn out on our courtesy, we've made our curtain calls
Like vampire bats deprived of blood, into the New York city that we crawl
And you've got a funny way of showing off your bathroom surgery
You said you were just cooling down from plans of leaving me
There's something I should tell you, for we may not have much time
- Radio
ALKALINE TRIO LYRICS
"Radio"
Shaking like a dog shittin' razorblades,
waking up next to nothing after dreaming of you and me
I'm waking up all alone, waking up so relieved
while you're taking your time with apologies,
- Rooftops
I got the scars to remind me
Of watching the clocks go round
Worked myself through somedays
But it put me where I am
in another time, In another place
Loving might have been in place
But for now, I'm finding myself
- Sadie
You're on your own my little nightmare you cannot stay here
It's far too bright for you
If they attack you just lay there,
Play dead dear, it's your only hope of pulling through.
And seconds they seem like a lifetime.
A dream, recurring, a dream that can't come true.
And they'll pin it all on you
- Settle For Satin
it's not so much a storm,
but just a cloud that lives inside of me
he doesn't stir so easily these days,
but when he wakes he goes the distance
in a marathon of days too long
open containers that sing songs,
"you'll never dream again,
but you can pray"
- She Took Him To The Lake
Do you remember the story of the boy and his first date?
She took him to the lake and he fell in love.
She spent one summer waking up between his arms.
She told him how good that felt, told him he was the one.
And then she went away, his calls were not returned.
He went to see her but her eyes were burning a different stare.
The focus was somewhere else.
- Sleepyhead
All you've been asking for's been placed in front of you.
The headaches, the shaking, the boredom the boardroom brings.
You're scratching at itching brought by the spiders beneath your skin.
The answer in question is over before it begins.
Hey there sleepy smile,
I see you've brought your bedroom eyes.
Not assuming you wanna keep 'em,
- Smoke
Over and out of it for one more plane ride out
Not sure, and never was if this will all head south, or what
Wait her a month or two will pass, I'm sure I won't
Faith dear, enough to get you by until we're home
I wish I don't wish I still smoked
I wish I wrote you one original note
Take me home, tuck me in,
- Sorry About That
it hasn't been that long
since we drank to the sunset,
until it was gone.
and down with it went our pain and fear,
as we slowly broke contact more and more,
with every beer.
and we passed out in each other's arms,
both admitting we'd never felt better.
- Southern Rock
I can't believe my heart's still pounding
I can't believe how close I came
And meanwhile heaven's falling
The fallen angels flown away
And that'll be me someday
With stolen wings and evil ways
Straight south with the keys to the pearly gates
- Steamer Trunk
Why you turned out the way you did
That thunderstorm is still crashing in
Your cranium
Find that all these funny faces look the same
I know who's to blame
But I swore I wouldn't say
It's time that I got moving on
- Stupid kid
There are things that used to make me smile
One of them was you for just a little while
You left me for dead so far away
I replaced you with fear and shame
You'll be happy on the day I die
There are things that used to make me laugh
But now they're deeply buried in the past
- Take Lots With Alcohol
Hello what the hell am I doin' here
That's a really nice suit
This is a really comfortable chair
See I don't know if you can help me or not
Cause I don't feel sick
But the pains in my head have almost put me
Underground
I don't really care if I'm healthy or not
- The American Scream
Well they tied that yellow ribbon round the oak tree.
They've worn out all the prayer in their hearts.
All along thought they were routing for the home team,
As they're sent to the game and torn apart.
With twists this turn a kid up on the pipeline,
He carries all the pain in the world.
As we blindly clap and cheer from the sidelines
- The KKK Took My Baby Away
She went away for the holidays
Said she's going to L.A.
"But she never got there, she never got there
She never got there", they say
She went away for the holidays
Said she's going to L.A.
- The Poison
It's not just the pain, the pain in my back
That laughs in my face, my face every night
Or the poison that took my lungs
That keeps me from feeling warm.
But how could a rooftop view in London
Look just the same as one in Brooklyn?
Nothing has changed but now I fight with words
- The Torture Doctor
The torture doctor is in
Back here to confess his sins
Knowing damn well he was dead wrong
And I can't believe my eyes
Trouble and regret haunt my mind
I'll let you take the whole thing down brick by brick
Tonight
And there's a devil dancing in my head
- This Addiction
You hit me just like heroin.
I feel you coursing through my
veins.
I once tried to kick this addiction.
I swear I'll never kick again, won't
ever kick again, no.
This addiction.
Can't seem to live without you.
- This Could Be Love
I've got a book of matches
I've got a can of kerosene
I've got some bad ideas involving you and me
I don't blame you for walking away
I touched myself had thoughts of flames
I shat the bed and laid there in it
Thinking of you wide awake for days
Wide awake for days
- This Is Getting Over You
Today I woke up,
Younger than I've been in years.
Not concerned with what's outside
And peers, I don't have any.
No one is my equal because I'm the king of rain.
Controlling with my moodswings,
Throw a thunderstorm your way, way.
Drowning girls is a game I play.
- Time to Waste
There's someone down below blowing you a kiss.
They watch from their windows
as all arms fall to their sides,
and all eyes fix on the death of tomorrow.
And you found everything you need
to make a life complete,
completely revolting and they have safety and relief
For sale down the street.
- Trouble Breathing
You told me that you want to die.
I said I've been there myself more than a few times.
And I go back every once in a while.
You called me lucky, you... you called me lucky.
You said tonight is a wonderful night to die.
I asked you how you could tell,
You told me to look at the sky.
Look at all those stars,
- Trucks And Trains
These days go by like trucks and trains
Some hit so hard you barely feel a thing
Lights out right now back then and forevermore
Lights out left now these robots marching
To the nearest liquor store
There's something green that's leaving town
Always thought it was blue
Always knew I was wrong
- Warbrain
[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
- Wash away
Sad memories the gathering rain brings
I loved her but I'll never see her again
Clouds raise their heads in the morning
the way I once walked on by her
But now she's gone and I'll never raise my face again
White horses dragged my lover from me
the clouds rushed in and drowned my sorrow with the rain
- weak week
Eleven eleven said the clock as a fool made a wish
For escape and understanding
A way out would be nice,
I'll have no good advice
When the clock begins to scream "12 after"
Some days the walls look greener
Caught on these fish hook eyes (I'll stay in bed all day)
- While You're Waiting
There's a hope in my head
That's been cut and bled
Dry as your bloodshot eyes
And there's smoke in the air
And it's soon to clear
Revealing our demise
There are some who say
That it's a-okay
- You've Got So Far To Go
Soon ends our stay here and it's been fun.
So tonight I'll raise my glass to us.
'Cause we've talked so much I think we filled this ashtray twice,
And I'm pretty sure we emptied every bottle in the place...
So let's walk home, let's be afraid.
I wanna grab you by the arms and kiss you so hard.
Let's do it right, under the streetlight.
- Your Neck
We're the things that go bump in the night that you can't see
How were the mishaps that always have burdened threes
They say no rocket science, no big mystery
Why the light of day is shown to us is absolutely meaningless to me
Well first things first, we've gotta find a way
To make the beauty of the nighttime last all day
We'll do our very best to keep our appetites in check
