Take This To Your Grave

Fall Out Boy Take This To Your Grave Lyrics
1.Tell That Mick He Just Made My List Of Things To Do Today

light a smoke for giving up on me and one more just cause
they'll kill you soon.
to my favorite liar (to my favorite scar):
'i could have died with you'
i hope you choke on those words and that bottle.
ash out your insides. 'when i said i loved you,
i swear to god i lied'. lately i've been thinking
i hope you catch fire cause i wouldn't piss to put you out.
i'm sunk so. hang yourself. his smile is your rope.
wrap it tight around your throat.
on the drive home with him joke about the kid
you used to see (and his jealousy)
breaking hearts has never looked so cool.
as you wrap your car around a tree.
your make-up looks great on the steering wheel.
right next to his teeth.
the accident scene is called 'you get what you deserve'


2.Dead On Arrival

i hope this is the last time
'cause i'd never say no to you
this conversation's been dead on arrival
and there's no way to talk to you
this conversation's been dead on arrival

a rivalry goes so deep between me
and this loss of sleep over you

this is side one
flip me over
i know i'm not you're favorite record
the songs you grow to like never stick at first
so i'm writing you a chorus
and here is your verse

no, it's not the last time
'cause i'd never say no to you
this conversation's still dead on arrival
and there's no way to talk to you
when you're dead on arrival

a rivalry goes so deep between me
and this loss of sleep over you

this is side one
flip me over
i know i'm not you're favorite record
the songs you grow to like never stick at first
so i'm writing you a chorus
and here is your...

whoo!
this is side one
flip me over
i know i'm not you're favorite record
so-o-o-o

this is side one
flip me over
this is side one
flip me over
i know i'm not you're favorite record
the songs you grow to like never stick at first
so i'm writing you a chorus
and here is your verse
here is your...


3.Grand Theft Autumn(Where Is Your Boy)

When I wake up,
I'm willing to take my chances on the hope you hate him more
than you notice
I wrote this for you.
You need him. I could be him...I could be an accident but I'm
still trying.
That's more than I can say for him.
Where is your boy tonight? I hope he is a gentleman.
Maybe he won't find out what I know:
you were the last good thing about this part of town.
Someday I'll appreciate in value,
get off my ass and call you...but for the meantime
I'll sport my brand new fashion of waking up with
my clothes on at 4:00 in the afternoon.


4.Saturday

I'm good to go
And I'm going nowhere fast
It could be worse
It could be talking you there with me
I'm good to go
But it looks like I'm still on my own

I'm good to go
For something golden
Though the motions I've been going through have failed
And I'm closing on potential towards the wall
At a 100 miles an hour

When I say
Two more weeks
My foot is in the door (yeah)
I can't sleep
In the wake of Saturday (Saturday)
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended

Pete and I attacked
And lost the story
Oh we promised them decisions
The mass of youthful innocence
And I read about the afterlife
But I never really lived more than an hour (more than an hour)

When I say
Two more weeks
My foot is in the door (yeah)
I can't sleep
In the wake of Saturday (Saturday)
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended

And I read about the afterlife
But I never really lived
And I read about the afterlife
But I never really lived

Two more weeks
My foot is in the door
Me and Pete
In the wake of Saturday
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended
Saturday
When these open doors were open-ended
Saturday
Saturday


5.Homesick At Space Camp

Landing on a runway in Chicago and
I'm grounding all my dreams of ever really seeing California,
because I know what's in between is
something sensual in such non-conventional ways.

Tonight the headphones will deliver you the words that I can't
say.
Tonight I'm writing you a million miles away.
Tonight is all about 'We miss you.'

And I can't forget your style or your cynicism,
somehow it was like you were the first to listen to everything
we said.
My smile's an open wound without you...
and my hands are tied to pages inked to bring you back.

These friends are, new friends are golden.

There's a sick little suicide in all that we do--The Matches


6.Sending Postcards From A Plane Crash(Wish You Were Here)

I am such a sucker
And I'm always the last to know
My insides are copper
And I'd kill to make them gold
Conversation got me here:another night alone in the city
So make my bed the grave and shovel dirt onto my sheets

Every friend we ever had in common
I will sever the tie with you
You can thank your lucky stars
That everything i wish for will never come true

When you go, I will forget everything about you

I've seen sinking ships go down with more grace than you

Turn this up I'll tune you out
Another night alone in the city
Fake it like you matter- cause that's the biggest secret you
have to keep


7.Chicago Is So Two Years Ago

my heart is on my sleeve
wear it like a bruise or blackeye
my badge, my witness
that means that i believed
every single lie you said (and learned from the best)

cause every pain of glass that your pebbles tap negates
the pains i went through to avoid you
and every little pat on the shoulder
for attention fails to mention i still hate you

but there's a light on in chicago
and i know i should be home
all the corners of the street signs..
they remind me of the pickup truck out in front of your
neighbor's house

she took me down and said:
'boy's like you are overrated. so save your breath.'
loaded words and loaded friends
are loaded guns to our heads

cause every pain of glass that your pebbles tap
negates the pains i went through to avoid you
and every little pat on
the shoulder for attention fails to mention i still hate you

but there's a light on in chicago
and i know i should be home
all the corners of the street signs..
they remind me of the pickup truck out in front of your
neighbor's house

you want apologies
girl, you might hold your breath
until your breathing stops forever, forever
the only thing you'll ever get
is this curse on your lips:
i hope they taste of me forever

but there's a light on in chicago
and i know i should be home
all the corners of the street signs..
they remind me of the pickup truck out in front of your
neighbor's

with every breath i wish your body will be broken again


8.The Pros And Cons Of Breathing

Bury me standing under your window with the cinder block in hand
Yeah cause no one will ever feel like this again
And if I could move I'm sure it would only be to crawl back to
you
I must have dragged my guts a block... they were gone by the
time we (talked)...

I want to hate you half as much as I hate myself
But you know that I could crush you with my voice

Stood on my roof and tried to see you forgetting about me
Hide the details I don't want to know a thing

I hate the way you say my name like it's something secret
My pen is the barrel of the gun. Remind me which side you should
be on

I wish that I was as invisible as you make me feel.


9.Grenade Jumper

My heart ticks in beat with these kids that I grew up with.
living like life's going out of style.
You came to watch us play...like a 'Big shot talent,'
but at the end of the day you know where we come from
and where we call home.

Hey Chris, you were our only friend.
I know this is belated, but we love you back.

They'll say it's not worth it.
So we'll leave this town in ruin.
living like life's going out of style.
You came to watch us play...like a 'Big shot talent,'
but at the end of the day you know those busted lips
we take back home.

I know you would be there either way.
I'm so glad it seems like these times will never fade.
So I'll tell everyone how much this means to me.


10.Calm Before The Storm

sat outside my front window
this story's going somewhere
'he's well hung' and i am hanging up
well theres a song on the radio that says
'let's get this party started, let's get this party started'
what you do on you own time's just fine
my imagination's much worse than i ever wanted to know
and what meant the world implodeded...
inflated then demoted all my oxygen to product gas
and suffocated my last chance you said between your smiles and
regrets
'dont say it's over'
dead and gone calm before the storm
set it off, and the sun burnt out tonight
reception less than warm
set it off and the sun burnt out tonight
the next time the phone can wring my neck it gets no answer
and of the time that i've spent telling it my roots
i'm shaking in my boots
and still it looks at me like an old friend i've betrayed
the darkside of the doormat is the one your shoes have frayed
the sun burnt out tonight


11.Reinventing The Wheel To Run Myself Over

I could walk this fine line between elation and success,
but we all know which way I'm going to go strike the stake
between my chest.
Well 'You have to prove yourself'. You'll have to prove it to
me.

So now you're waiting up for him... you're wasting time every
time

I can't do it by myself.

I can't wake up to these reminders of who I am:
A failure of everything... 18 going on extinct.
I know my place it's nowhere you should roam.


12.The Patron Saint Of Liars And Fakes

I'm holding out and I'm holding on to every letter and every
grudge.
I pulled myself out of the day we ever had to meet.
Are you through with me?

When it all goes to hell, will you be able to tell me sorry with
a straight face.

I'm all ears and I'm all scars to hear you tell me
'Boy's like you you try so hard to not look desperate'.
I'm hanging on. But i still know the way to make your makeup
run.

Take this to your grave and I'll take it to mine.
