Live In A Dive[Live]

No Use For A Name Live In A Dive[Live] Lyrics
1.Intro


2.Invincible

This conversation sickens me
Please let me out, I'll take the bus
And though I try to understand,
I didn't know
How can you say that I'm a fool
When all I do is help?
Well, I guess I'm a fool
But I know that I'm not your pawn
That feeling is dead and gone
Pretend you're invincible
And no one can save you from yourself
Pretend you're a super hero
A fucking zero trying to save the world
Please don't remind me of the past
It's much too late to work it out
And though I see the positive, I hear the doubt
Go off and hide your life away
These words are obsolete
And I'm crazy to think that you'll wake up and come around
The silence is made with sound
Pretend you're invincible
There's no one to tell you that it's wrong
They're all just as scared as I am
Lt's over someday
Soon it won't be long
Invincible


3.Coming Too Close

There was a time when you would come and go
Now there's no time left to react
Just as it starts to heal in comes a bitter end
Well you were already to leave my side and then...
You're coming too close and I can't pretend
That I'll pick you up or let you come in again
We've been through this before, so please understand
That nothing in this heart can save you from the pain you seek
If you pick up the phone please don't call on me
No one can save you from the undertow
Nobody can blame you for the past
Just as I started thinking 'Everything's alright'
You showed us surely that your tenth time was your last
You're coming too close and I can't pretend
That I'll pick you up or let you come in again
We've been through this before, so please understand
That nothing in this heart can save you from the pain you seek
If you pick up the phone please don't call on me
Yesterday I saw you falling to the ground
Seems like things get worse when no one is around
It's not okay
You're coming too close and I can't pretend
That I'll pick you up or let you come in again
We've been through this before, so please understand
That nothing in this heart can save you from the pain you seek
If you pick up the phone please don't call on me


4.Chasing Rainbows

Just heard the news today
Let yourself down once again
Trusted your feelings in a place that no one goes
Will you do anything to satisfy your so-called friend?
There's something you ought to know
Before you explode
All I want to do is make sure you stop chasing rainbows
Trusting those around you is an easy thing to do
I'm not saying don't believe in someone that you don't know
Just don't go on thinking that the whole world tells the truth
It's all fucked up
Being reserved and quiet
She doesn't understand the message that you send
Don't give it all away somewhere, someday, there's someone
Who can replace that state of mind
You never give it time (Never)
All I want to do is make sure you stop chasing rainbows
Letting everybody crawl inside your heart and mind
Kicking you is easy when you're down
That's when the weak know
To release their anger on someone who will not try
To stand up and give them a fight


5.On The Outside

I'll see you on the outside
And we'll never be the same
After all that's happened what is it that we've gained?
Well, I've made mistakes before and never lived them down
After all you've done for me I'm bound
(Don't say another word)
To see you on the outside where we can both be sane
(You're speaking for yourself)
I'm bleeding on the inside
A place you might have been
But now I know I'll (Never be the same)
Well I heard you got a place and it's far away from here
Reality has sunken in now confirming all my fears
I'm not gonna track you down and it's too late to stop
Thinking 'bout the time that we have lost
(I'm happy without you)
I'm trying to forget you and everything we had
(We didn't stand a chance)
We're miserable and it's true I haven't learned a thing
But now I know I'll trust no one else
(There was a time when we were back and forth, it wasn't easy)
I guess that we're back where we belong
One thing is for sure, it wasn't strong
I'll see you on the outside where we can both feel shame
(You've never been more right)
I'm dying on the inside, you're never coming back
And now I know whatever we go through
My heart is stuck with you


6.Straight From The Jacket

So sorry son you're worrying your mother
No explanation's gonna make it seem alright
Young boy, listen to your father
It's more than just your life, it's more than suicide
How does it feel?
When you're looking down the barrel of a loaded gun
Tell me how it feels
Did you see your life flash right before your eyes?
Stop playing games and get yourself up off the floor
Young boy we're going to send you to the lions
The men all dressed in white, when you became undone
How does it feel when I might have brought you up
But you are not my son
So many times I tried to bring you up you brought me down
I won't consider you again stop looking at me like you care
I worked my fingers to the bone
I'm not your father or a friend
You might have lived here once but this is not your home
Tell me how it feels
You didn't mean much to me I didn't plant the seed
I'm not your father cause you didn't turn out right
Young boy we're gonna feed you to the fire
How does it feel?
When you're looking down the barrel of the loaded gun...


7.Soulmate

Monday morning, you woke up crying
The outcome of a stupid line
Said by some punk-ass on the street
It wasn't me, it wasn't you
It wasn't anybody you knew
Is it your old friend insecurity?
The one companion that stuck by your side since you were born
Tuesday night you were in a fight
The same old argument, black and white
It's something that's eating your inside
It's not the food, it's not the booze
It isn't anything consumed
So, is it becoming a problem you can't hide?
So, every time you thought that you were wrong you were right
The devil on your shoulder gives you strength in paranoia
The countless times you called a few
Your best friend 'til the end of time
They'll always be there by your side
Solidify conditions you've abused
What that means you'll never have a clue
More than just a life long friend
No social life I guess we can pretend
It's not like I care but anyway
You always wanna leave, you never wanna stay
Cause you think if you drink too much then you will lose it
You'll drink your security away
The one companion that stuck by your side since you were born
The little voice inside your head, annoying and confusing
That somehow tells you what to do
Socially you've lost your mind and basically you're out of time
You try to build so much it breaks on you
What that means you'll never have a clue


8.Not Your Savior

Unlucky seventeen, already handed plans for the future
Glamour obsessed, told how to dress
And shown how to think
And I don't have a job
But I can show you how to be a slob
So many days, wasted and glazed
Sometimes, I laugh aloud
As I think about you asking me, 'Please can you help?'
Can't help myself
I'm not your savior
I'm not who you want me to be
A cowardly mistake I've made so many times before
Refusing to break
Cut my losses, ties them with you
Like a good boy, I'll pretend
And promise not to do it again
Do you remember when life was so simple and permanent?
Everyone's changed, 'Everyone's cool,' everyone sucks
But I can't seem to complain
Exciting and new is just not there
You're getting scared
I'm not your savior
Never thought I was anyway
I'm a void with empty promises that backs out late
Never said I'd change
Taking back the words that we spoke
Like a fuel tank running dry, you'll believe it when I choke


9.Don't Miss The Train

So many different things you can do with your life
So many different things if you have the time
Give a little more, give it your best shot
On the right track you can't be stopped
All the things I said that I would do
All the brilliant ideas that slipped right through
Sometimes we got to get on and climb aboard
But I was one day late and a dollar short
Don't miss the train, don't miss the train
Don't miss the train, don't miss the train
Don't miss the train, don't miss the train
Don't miss the train, don't miss the train
It could be the only chance we have
Have you ever sat and thought about other things?
Living on the street, hanging by a string
Letting people take away your name
Letting people push you into your grave
What you gotta do is stand up for what is yours
Breaking all the barricades, smash the doors
If the chance comes around to save your life
Remember, opportunity doesn't always knock twice
The decision is ntirely up to you
So don't watch the train just pass right through
There is another time that you will meet in life
But the second visit won't be nice
So now you're walking in your sorrow on lonely tracks
Hoping for the day the train will come back
Light on in the tunnel just up ahead
The train is back but now you're dead...TOO LATE


10.Justified Black Eye

She was confused and abused in this life
Emotional and violent moments
Seemed to take the longest time
Every single knockout dragout
Fight they ever had. Apologies and
Dignity denied he starts to
Laugh he starts to lie with
Suddenly psychotic eyes.
Every night she cried herself
To sleep she didn't recognize
Her own face in the mirror
Black and blue, so afraid
Intimidation like a child she
Hides away he would always
Try to justify what wasn't true
Justified black eye
Taken for granted she sleeps by
The phone waiting for a call
From him but it seems he's never
Coming home, 14 beers later
He is there without an answer
Once again she questions his
Lies he goes to bed with no reply
Tomorrow morning, different story
And he'll be a different guy
He'll justify her black eye with another lie
She packs her bags in great temptation
He's on his knees again he cries
A hug a kiss and a don't know why
As a tear drops from her swollen eye
Apologies until tonight and another
Justified black eye

13.Room 19

It's been so long since you've been here, and I'm dying
Is there something you would like to say?
Just drop the present on the shelf, by the flowers
And make the feeling go away
Looking back I can't recall, who was listening
When I used to walk the streets at night
Like a bird that used to sing, I was flying
I was happy all the time, and it's hard to look back
Better days and different ways I can't explain
Another song to sing it all was simplified
Don't know what it's about, what have I learned to live without?
It takes a day to live a life
I can't believe the way the world is so different
Look what the lines in my face have made
Living in my bed I'm right next to the road
The one that goes the other way, takes me to a different place
Did you know, that I was just as young as you
I had a job, a home, a family, and a car
Did you say that yesterday or just right now?
You'll never know the feeling of my bleeding heart
Did you say that yesterday or just right now?
You'll never know the feeling of my bleeding heart


14.The Answer Is Still No

I couldn't understand why you left me standing here
Flickering out like a candle in the wind
The memories are laced with shame
There's no intention of working out the problem that remains the
same
Little children standing in the hall
Never taught them anything at all
If you were young again, would you do it different?
Or make your way just trying to find the fiction in the fact of
life?
Try to believe the words that you said to me are true
But something else assures me I'm not through
Been denied so many times
And so I'm told to sit back and ignore the truth,
Enjoy the ride
Never took a hand with her to school
Take a guess then tell us who's the fool
And you're not supposed to be my responsibility
One day you'll regain your pride
And realize life is too short not to try...
Does anybody care?
Does anybody...?
Does anybody care?

16.Hail To The King

She loves him just enough, to be laid there
Spread eagle exposing her love
Her sighs and moans meant nothing to him
But a girl must do what she must do.
Hail To The King
And his court of love
Was it love? Or self-imposed lust.
Hey, it's not your duty to me
I'm just a boy, not a king
It never felt right from the start
Speak to me, I'll understand
Now it's over and in the past
About the future, should we laugh?
Regret it, try hard to forget it
Learn by our mistakes and try not to forget.


17.Feeding The Fire

It used to be easy to listen to people
And take everything with a grain of salt
But now that I'm older I still hear voices
I do not wish to be involved
I don't want to be involved
With the incinerator anymore
That lifestyle is such a bore
Find the door
I want to leave this place
Can't take it anymore
Locked in a room and
The flames are burning down around me
And now I see the door
But I won't find a key
It's kinda sad but i'll never find
A better place to be
I'm not feeding the fire anymore
It makes me want to keep it locked inside
You got the gasolene but I don't have a light
I wanna hang out it's not a good time
I'd rather be somewhere that I could find
People that don't live off the words
That are said by someone else
Cause talking shit is so bad for your health


18.Exit

Yesterday becomes tomorrow leaves you wanting more
So intricate becomes the bathroom floor
And even though you're in a ditch you dig a deeper hole
And I feel like I'm a shovel cause it's out of my control
Promised a change, didn't hear a word from you
Don't hold me back
The exit isn't somewhere in my heart
A promise of pain...we're back to the start
The reason that I still persist it's obvious I care
Been waiting by a door with no one there
It seems like you are locked inside my key don't fit no more
And you're walking on the land mines you laid down before
Promised a change I didn't hear a word from you
Don't hold me back
The exit isn't somewhere in my heart
A promise of pain...we're back to the start


19.Six Degrees From Misty

When you were little she sold you out
Out be the ounce the drugs and alcohol was free
Or maybe it was your imagination
Friend of the family but now the foe
She gets inside your mind with everything you smoke
That's why your conspiracy comes from some words she spoke
The rain is controlled by misty
Who's one but feels like three
She always has to be behind every little problem I face
I'd drive to Ireland but there's a lake between the land
She hired private eyes to follow me
Maybe I'll go to Paris and France
And meet the Pope and someone to be with for life
A place far away where she could never find us here
Everything bad is a 'misty'
She's hiding in that tree
I'm swimming at the beach and she's got submarines and high
technology
She runs my life and in my dreams at night
And everywhere I go I'm always six degress, from misty


20.Redemption Song

Old pirates yes they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly
All I ever had, is songs of freedom
Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
Cause all I ever had, redemption songs
Redemption songs
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fullfill the book
Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
Cause all I ever had, redemption songs
Redemption songs, redemption songs
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but oursekves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Yes some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the book
Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
Cause all I ever had, redemption songs
All I ever had, redemption songs
These songs of freedom, songs of freedom
