MXPX - Secret Weapon (2007) by MXPX (보컬) on maniadb.com

You always had some trouble with authority
And that's the way
that growing up's supposed to be.
But you can make it through.
You gotta believe.

You are your own secret weapon.
It's all up to you.
To come out swinging.
It's all up to you.

Take back the stolen years.
The truth will set you free.
Don't lay down and lie.
Shut down the fallacies.
Throw all of your fears into the sea.

(후렴반복)

So call all your cars.
And take to the streets.
Raise up your voice and sing.
You can't change the past.
Nothing will last.
Embrace what tomorrow brings.
You can't change the past.

(후렴반복)

Now that I'm awake
I'm never sleeping again
Cause I don't wanna miss the life I should be living
So break me off a piece of those candy coated good times.
I need a high
I'm serious
It's do or die

Whoa
I'm serious It's do or die
Whoa

Shut it down.
Before we're all out time.
Shut it down.
This is the end of the line.
This is the end of the line.
This is the end of the line.

Throw away your cell phone.
You can talk to yourself.
You need a real friend.
Not some digital image.
So what's it gonna be?
A chat room or your family?
Don't let the TV screen turn into your reality.

Whoa.
Turn into your reality.
Whoa.

Shut it down.
Before we're all out time.
Shut it down.
This is the end of the line.
This is the end of the line.
This is the end of the line.

I don't wanna die.
No I don't wanna die.
But I'm having trouble living.
I don't wanna die.
No I don't wanna die.
But I'm not taking what they're giving

Whoa.
Turn into your reality.
Whoa.

Shut it down.
Before we're all out time.
Shut it down.
This is the end of the line.

I have always tried to find
a little place that I could get away for a while.
And now,
I'm noticing that there's no clear frequencies.
No empty space left on the dial.

You just gotta make a little place for yourself.
You just gotta take a little time to yourself.

Here's to the life,
that we always never wanted.
And somehow we've forgotten
the road we've traveled on.
Here's to the life.

I have to know that you're ok.
And know you're here to stay.
To know this isn't a trial.
And now, I take a breath to breathe.
I turn around to leave and get away for a while.

You just gotta make a little place for yourself.
You just gotta take a little time to yourself.

Here's to the life,
that we always never wanted.
And somehow we've forgotten
the road we've traveled on.

I'm so easy to forgive.
Except the way I live.
And everything I do.
And everything I do to you.

(후렴반복)

They said we need to kick it harder.
They said, rewrite the lyrics smarter.
We can't quite smell platinum yet.

Cause everybody wants to be a big celebrity.
Everybody wants to win the lottery.
From the bottom of our hearts to the top of the charts.

They said we need to play it better.
They said, just sing like Eddie Vedder.
And bring us something we can sell.

Cause everybody wants to be a big celebrity.
Everybody wants to win the lottery.
Cause everybody wants to be like the people on TV.
Everybody wants to see the show for free.
From the bottom of our hearts to the top of the charts.

Somebody said it right when they said this life ain't easy.
Maybe tonight's the night when it all comes down and we get it right.

Cause everybody wants to be a big celebrity.
Everybody wants to win the lottery.
Cause everybody wants to be like the people on TV.
Everybody wants to see the show for free.
From the bottom of our hearts to the top of the charts.
From the bottom of our hearts to the top of the charts.
From the bottom of our hearts to the top of the charts.

You wake up in the morning, don't remember a thing
And now your face is staring back from magazines
This is everything you've ever dreamed
Rapid hearts are beating, faster breathing
Punk rawk celebrity is, oh so fleeting.

Don't push that red button, it'll blow up your face
You feel like your whole life you've been running a race
Is there anybody with you in this place?
Rapid hearts are beating, faster breathing
Punk rawk celebrity is, oh so fleeting.

Punk rawk celebrity is an oxy moron
To be a PRC, a Punk Rawk Celebrity,
Put all your best clothes, put your best make up on

You've made such a big mess, let's call it success
You've made such a big mess, let's just call it success
We all know, we all know, we all know you
We all know, we all know, we all know you
We know, it just isn't true

We all know, we all know, we all know you

This is a fight, broken bottles, bloody walls
There was a time when a fist could solve it all
But those days are gone along with many murdered lives

Hey, contention
Hey, it's killing us

This is a war, complete with a body count
This ain't the past, this ain't the future, this is now
When will we stand up and refuse to be put down?

Hey, contention
Hey, it's killing us

In a room without a window
Your head starts caving in
Your mind takes you to places
that it's never been
In a house without a hall way
There's nothing more to see
4 walls full of pick up
sticks and atrophy
Where the sun shines bright and
I don't have to lock my door
Where the moon is full and
I'm not tired anymore
Where angels carry
me along the way
Where I can close my
eyes at night and pray
Where angels sit and
watch me while I
look up to the sky
Where angels carry
me along the way
In a grave without a body
the worms lay all alone
This room is a tomb
It is my home
In a song without a meaning
Your mind starts going blank
Send in reinforcements
We need a tank
Where the sun shines bright and
I don't have to lock my door
Where the moon is full and
I'm not tired anymore
Where angels carry
me along the way
Where I can close my
eyes at night and pray
Where angels sit and
watch me while I
look up to the sky
Where angels carry
me along the way

Spread your wings around me
Take me high into the air
Free prisoners from shackes
Teach them they should not despair
In time we all will know
Our destination
Which way we will go
Where angels carry
me along the way
Where I can close my
eyes at night and pray
Where angels sit and
watch me while I
look up to the sky
Where angels carry
me along the way

Switch the light off, go to bed
There's no more room inside my head
The world around me slowly fades away
As I close my eyes and think, the shadows blot my memories
Of all the thing I've tried and failed today

Please don't go
First I need to know, if all the lies you said to me were true
And the face that I saw wasn't really you
I feel like drowning, deep down in the sea
I feel like drowning, don't bother coming after me
I feel like drowning, way down in
My false memories, I feel like drowning

With blankets wrapped around so tight
That in my dreams my hands are tied
Now I'm slow-mo running for the door
I've got no clue where it leads, but my lungs need some air to breathe
My eyelids shutter then fall to the floor

Please don't go
First I need to know, if all the lies you said to me were true
And the face that I saw wasn't really you
I feel like drowning, deep down in the sea
I feel like drowning, don't bother coming after me
I feel like drowning, way down in
My false memories, I feel like drowning

We all reach that dark and fragile destination sometimes
Looking for direction for the light to fill our eyes
Fill our eyes

Please don't go
First I need to know, if all the lies you said to me were true
And the face that I saw wasn't really you
I feel like drowning, deep down in the sea
I feel like drowning, don't bother coming after me
I feel like drowning, way down in
My false memories, I feel like drowning

He's got the cops, they're knocking down his door
He left the murder weapon lying on the floor
The sister's finally gone, now he's the only son
It was a bloody day in Bremerton

One stop, chop shop
Somebody call the cops
One stop, chop shop
Somebody call the cops

In a studio apartment, his axe wouldn't stop
So many pieces everywhere he had to mop
She should have paid him back last week for all the meth
That still small voice told him, "Axe her to death"

One stop, chop shop
Somebody call the cops
One stop, chop shop
Somebody call the cops

I hope they put this guy away until the end of time
He must be messed up in the head to have committed this sick crime
His confession to the police it painted such a gruesome scene
The apartment was more red than they have ever seen

It's so sad to see that chalky outline
B town murders happen all the time

One stop, chop shop
Somebody call the cops
One stop, chop shop
Somebody call the cops

You're old enough to know it's not your fault
You're strong enough to face your darkest conflict
Now you've woken from your nightmare, and now you're fighting back
And nothing can survive when you attack
This road to healing, hurts more than anything

Now that you're on fire, you're voice is like the wind
Now that you're on fire, let life begin again
Now that you're on fire, a new day has begun
Now that you're on fire, you are like the sun
Now that you're on fire

You've spent some time along this lonesome road
With no one waiting for you back at home
Just breaking hearts and living free and easy
Times have changed and now you're not alone
This road to healing, hurts more than anything

Now that you're on fire, you're voice is like the wind
Now that you're on fire, let life begin again
Now that you're on fire, a new day has begun
Now that you're on fire, you are like the sun
Now that you're on fire

More than anything I'd like to see
Better brighter days for you, for you and me

Now that you're on fire, you're voice is like the wind
Now that you're on fire, let life begin again
Now that you're on fire, a new day has begun
Now that you're on fire, you are like the sun
Now that you're on fire, now that you're on fire

I'm breaking through computer screens
And running in your living room
A via-tele-digi wretch like me
Chasing all my dreams into a cable
Where they beam them out into a billion homes across the see

Take to the street tonight
To live your life to do what's right
Sometimes you gotta stand and fight

Do you hear the bass so low?

I haven't had the pleasure of experience
until I me the master of the never ending promises
Cause everytime I look into the mirror
all I'm seeing is a parody and image laughing back at me

Take me out when you go
Cause I don't wanna miss the chance to be part of the show

Do you hear the bass so low?

The signal's fading fast
And I just don't know what to do
I'm waiting for a message on the radio from you
I'm waiting here for you
Waiting here for you

You got a sad, sad song.
So sing it without me.
You got a sad, sad song.
So sing it without me.

Stab out my eyes,
Cut off my ears.
Cause I don't wanna hear what you say.
And now you're blaming me for all your bad memories.
When you're the one that threw'em away.

You got a sad, sad song.
So sing it without me.
You got a sad, sad song.
So sing it without me.

Cause I don't wanna sing along.
No, I don't wanna sing your sad sad song.
You get a good thing going.
Then you turn it around.
I'm beginning to think you went nuts.
To tell you the truth, I don't really care.
Ok. I really hate your guts.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

You got a sad, sad song.
So sing it without me.
You got a sad, sad song.
So sing it without me.

Cause I don't wanna sing along.
No, I don't wanna sing your sad sad song.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

The ballast has come down, it's left me aimless and afraid
That's not how I was made, my head inside my knees
If I can't think, than I can't breathe
I just want to leave this place at last
When you live, you gotta live large
Let the world know who's in charge

There will never be a better time than now,
Never better than now, never better than now
There will never be a better time than now

Finally changed my number, keep the calls from coming in
I'm just not interested, the medicine's not working
But I'm feeling the effects from all the side effects warned on the box
When you live, you gotta live large
Let the world know who's in charge

There will never be a better time than now,
Never better than now, never better than now
There will never be a better time than now

I've left you wondering
Was there poison in the sting that pierced my heart
Cause I feel momentarily paralyzed
But I get back on the horse and correct my current course
Cause when I have run aground, yes I have let you down
Cause when I have run aground, yes I have let you down

When you talk, you gotta talk fast
Your next breath may be your last
The road's been winding down for a while

Never better than now, never better than now
There will never be a better time than now

She said 'there's nothing you can say to me that hasn't been said
There's nothing you can do to me that hasn't been done inside my head,
done inside my head'
'Well what else do you have up there that isn't tied down?
You make a lot of noise for a girl from south of town'
She's so calm, yet so confused
She don't know she's being used
She tries so hard, but it makes no difference
Cause biting the bullet is bad for business
She pretends to be so interested in current affairs
Pretends she doesn't notice when she sees so many people stare
She counted 39 steps from her door to her car
39 thousand more just to get herself out of the dark
Now she sees a spark, and now she sees a spark
She's so calm, yet so confused
She don't know she's being used
She tries so hard, but it makes no difference
Cause biting the bullet is bad for business
The pretty picture she tried to find
Were only real inside her mind
She broke a window inside her soul
It hurts more than you'll ever know
She's so calm, yet so confused
She don't know she's being used
She tries so hard, but it makes no difference
Cause biting the bullet is bad for business

Do you find pleasure in the pain?
Or something I haven't seen
You're so sad and you're a sadist
I'm not the only one to say this

You're not nothing, you're less than nothing
I trusted much too easily
You're not nothing, you're less than nothing to me
Nothing to me...

I can't believe that I believed all the lies you conceived
I just cant see how you can't see the plague that you brought on me

You're not nothing, you're less than nothing
I trusted much too easily
You're not nothing, you're less than nothing to me
Nothing to me...

Goos-fraba, Goos-fraba, I've got to calm myself down <i>[x4]</i>

You're not nothing, you're less than nothing
I trusted much too easily
You're not nothing, you're less than nothing to me
Nothing to me, nothing to me, nothing to me

The dim city light would serve as our guide
Like gypsies making off with the moonlight
It always seems to come right down to this
A heavy hitter swings, but seems to miss
You cant help hoping you'll be the next one, and you'll be winning

We're tightly wound, going round and around
We're tightly wound, going round and around
We may break on the way up or on the way down
We're all going down, going down

So face the breaks and we'll be better for it
Like an executioner on death row
It always seems to come right down to this
A heavy hitter swings, but seems to miss
You cant help hoping you'll be the next one, and you'll be winning

We're tightly wound, going round and around
We're tightly wound, going round and around
We may break on the way up or on the way down
We're all going down, going down

So don't cling to desperation
Just use your imagination
Your thoughts are what get you everything
But don't think you've got it coming

It always seems to come right down to this
A heavy hitter swings, but seems to miss
You cant help hoping you'll be the next one, and you'll be winning

We're tightly wound, going round and around
We're tightly wound, going round and around
We may break on the way up or on the way down
We're all going down, going down
