haha thats so funny, i'm actually listening to that right now, and i was just gonna come and post the lyrics, i'm completely serious. what it is to burn is also a great song by finch.

She burns

Today's on fire
The sky is bleeding above me, and I am blistered
I walk these lines of blasphemy, every day
And still

Like a bad star, I'm falling faster down to her
She's the only one who knows, what it is to burn

I feel diseased
Is there no sympathy from the sun?
The sky's still fire
But I am safe in here, from the world outside

So tell me
What's the price to pay for glory?

Like a bad star, I'm falling faster down to her
She's the only one who knows, what it is to burn

Today is fire, and she burns
Today is fire, and she burns
She burns
She burns
She burns
She burns
She burns
She burns


Like a bad star, I'm falling faster down to her
She's the only one who knows, what it is to burn

lol thats good!!!!! Have you heard the acoustic version of that it is so freakin awesome you gotta hear it

jibber

ya i know, its amazing i love it. another great song is perfection through silence.

Alone at last together in a photograph
Our eyes are always open devoted to perfection
through silence

What am I supposed to do?
Should I sit wait for you?
Listen to me screaming more

This story is old only to those that have no mold
The truth can be bought or sold
What are we buying?
Nothing but silence.

What am I supposed to do?
Should I sit wait for you?
Listen to me screaming more

Fold the Corners,
Break the silence,
Fold the corners,
just for tonight.
WHEN WEAKENED, WHEN WILL YOU RISE?!

what am I supposed to do?
Should I sit wait for you?
Listen to me screaming more

ill make my way across the frozen sea
beyond the blank horizon
where i can forget 'you and me'
and get a decent night's sleep
-saves the day

paint my face in shades of blood and grey and take the seat right next to me
well i should've known that you were a killer.
but now i'm dead.
-senses fail

flickerstick yes!!

heres the lyrics to that song:

And if i couldn't attain
All i need to explain
Would she even look me in the eye again
She sits back and ignores
My need to adore
Intimidations got me down again
She's only 18 but such a beautiful dream
All she needs is some chloroform
And she'll be mine
Chloroform the one, the one that you love
And take her back

Every once in a while
I catch a strut and a smile
Maybe rejection is the high
That keeps me coming here
I need some compassion but she's
Laughing at the nervousness
I feel whenever she is around
And i can't see just how real
Is the charm no i don't mean
Her no harm despite my heart
And the challenge while she's lying here

Chloroform the one, the one that you love
And take her back
(repeat 1 more time)

So just walk on by
I can see today is like any other day
But it seems brighter than it was before
I just can't believe that its
Not the same no it's not the same
It will never be the same for me again

Chloroform the one, the one that you love
And take her back
(repeat 3 more times)

and here's beautiful, my favorite flickerstick song:

You could be the devil in my bed
You could be the angel in my head
You could be the voices that i hear
I'm singing along because it sounds just like you're near
Cause you're so beautiful
You're beautiful today
You're so beautiful
Beautiful in every little way
Cause when you're coming around
I'm off the ground
I've got to say
You're so beautiful
You're beautiful today

I could be the drug you can't resist
I could be the antidote you missed
I could be the love you hate to fear
You're filling the hole inside your heart with feeling near to me

Cause you're so beautiful
You're beautiful today
You're so beautiful
Beautiful in every little way
Cause when you're coming around
I'm off the ground
I've got to say
You're so beautiful
You're beautiful today

Can we make it through
Together we got to fly
Don't you know i got to fly
Cause when you're coming around i got to fly
Don't you know i want to fly

And i know
And i feel
That i could learn to hate just like you
And i know
And i feel
That you could learn to love just like me

(repeat above 6 lines)

(repeat chorus w/above 3 lines in background)

Can we make it through together
I've got to fly

I got the accoustic version of that finch song from a friend, if somebody could figure a way for me to post it or something, I'd upload it for anyone that wants it. Maybe I could put it on my ftp and just give a password. PM me if you want it, we'll work something out. That song rocks.
