Big Wreck--In Loving Memory Of

THE OAF

Who'd you drag around my door?
If I keep it cracked it won't be here no more
Who'd you leave along the way?
Well leave him there and don't come back today (yeah)

Now who's the one who treats you right?
Well leave him there and don't come back to fight
Who's the lad who wants to be?
It never was and it just can't be me

My luck is wasted..I'm on the run somewhere
My luck is wasted..I'm on the run somewhere

Throw the rocks and break the glass
I'll get down on my knees and kiss your ass
'Cause you dont wanna be in my dreams
It never was and isn't what it seems

My luck is wasted..I'm on the run somewhere
My luck is wasted..I'm on the run somewhere

Who's a-draggin' at my door?
Well I shot it now it don't come back no more

       (Come on and find out some day)
My luck is wasted...I'm on the run somewhere
       (Here I come wrap it around)
My luck is wasted...I'm on the run somewhere


THAT SONG

So I always get nostalgic with that song
But in my room its forced

It has to be in some car across the street

And I always catch the back of your head in the crowd
Please don't turn around
It's never you and it ruins those memories

And those photos look great if I catch 'em with the side of my eye
But if I stare it just turns into you and me
We're just standing there

And now it's over..
Would you hear me scream at the top of my lungs?
And when you go there..
Would you hear me scream at the top of my lungs?

So I always fool my friends when we head down there
They think that we aren't ruined
We just drove past your house and you were in there

And I'm always great when I'm hangin with your buds and they lie
They think that I'm just fine
It's always been that way.. just a pocketbook Brando

And when you hold him..
Would you hear me scream at the top of my lungs?
You love my whisper..
But did you hear me scream at the top of my lungs?

Yes when you crank that song
And it might sound doom
So just leave the room
While I sit and stare
And cuz this is rare
I really love that tune
Man I love that song
I really love that song
I love that song

So when you go there..
Would you hear me scream at the top of my lungs?
And when you hate him..
Would you hear me scream at the top of my lungs?

(chorus)

Yes when you crank that song
And it might sound doom
So just leave the room
While I sit and stare
And cuz yeah that's rare
I really love that tune
Man I love that song
I love that song
I love that song


Fall Through The Cracks
==================
So I won't hear..
Unless you tell me to
And I won't see..
Unless I look for you (oh)
-
Cuz my opinions..
They don't mean that much to me
So if they're clashing..
I'll trash them happily
-
(chorus)
Let me fall through your cracks again
But you only notice now and then
Cuz I've made this mistake before
I was only comin' back for more
-
So close your door
I'm back for more (ohh)
-
So don't be fooled
By what you see
Cuz I fully realize
What's happening to me (yes)
-
Apologies
Well I don't know what else to say
It was never meant to be
But I had fun anyway
-
(chorus)
Let me fall through your cracks again
And you only notice now and then
Well I've made this mistake before
I was only comin' back for more
-
So close your door
I'm back for more (ohh)
-

(chorus)
(Yeah) Let me fall through your cracks again
But you only notice now and then
So I've made this mistake before
I was only comin' back for more
-
So close your door
I'm back for more
Close your door
I'm back for more
Close your door
I'm back for more


LOOK WHAT I FOUND
==================

It's solely operational
And we don't even have to sell
I roped it but what the hell
It's someone elses oh oh well
-
Stolen but it's okay
If integrity says no way
Well now it's here to stay
So let's go outside and play
-
Well I suppose so
Well I never did really wanna know
-
(chorus)
How can you walk around..
With your feet up off the ground? (yeah)
How can you steal their sum?
Keep your ears below the ground
And take a look around
Look what I found
-
No one will ever notice
That all your shit is bogus
And never go for the fear
That someone like me might hear
-
Your shtick is gettin' thinner
But you'll come out a winner
Check's already in the bank
And you've forgotten who to thank
-
And fake is what you bring
And what I need is the real thing
-
(chorus)
How can you walk around..
With your feet up off the ground? (yeah)
How can you steal their sum?
Keep your ears below the ground
And take a look around
Look what I found
-
Well I suppose so
And no one will ever know
-
(chorus)
How can you walk around..
With your feet up off the ground? (yeah)
How can you steal their sum?
Keep your ears below the ground
And take a look around
Look what I found



OVEREMPHASIZING
=================
Once was a man.. a rage
All foreigns tales onstage
It turns a page
-
All through this time.. not grown
She'll go through life.. alone
Don't answer the phone
-
(chorus)
Overemphasizing
The time we spent
Oh the time you lent
-
(chorus)
Overemphasizing
Oh the less you gave
The less you got to save
-
Not long ago.. we moved
Still much was left to prove
I was removed
-
(chorus)
Overemphasizing
Oh the love we made
Well I forgot to save
-
(chorus)
Overemphasizing
All the locks you gave
That I forgot to save
-
Once was a man.. a rage
All foreign tales on stage..




BLOWN WIDE OPEN (not 100% sure on these lyrics! Sorry)
=================

So I'm surrounded..
By the things I thought I'd put away
And I'm surrounded..
By the things I thought I'd put away
-
And there's a pile in the closet
That's where I threw some yesterday
Maybe under the rug
That's where I swept some the other day
-
So the mess is drawing forces
Outside I hear them say
Just come out with your hands up
So we can blow you away
-
(chorus)
And I walk out the door..
Get blown wide open
By the things I'd put away
And I wasn't even warned..
Just blown wide open
Now the mess is where I lay
-
So I'm surrounded..
By the things I thought I'd put away
So I'm surrounded..
By the things I thought I'd put away
-
And if I'm a slob
Well I never looked at it that way
Irresponsible
Well you're not the first to say
-
But I told her I'm sorry
I never wanted it this way
Yeah I still need her
But the mess wont go away
-
(chorus)
And I walk out the door..
Get blown wide open
By the things I'd put away
And I'm out on the porch..
Just blown wide open
By the mess is where I lay
-
Yeah Blown Wide Open
Blown Wide Open
Blown Wide Open
Blown Wide Open
The gun's still smokin'..
Blood keeps flowin'..
Blown Wide Open
Blown Wide Open
-
Would she go there?
-
Ohh I'm surrounded..

PRAYER
=======
Farewell old friend
A season ends
And your conscience lends
All your lies at hand
-
Because you're a star
And you'll go far
You stand in the flame
Just to make a name
-
(chorus)
You glance at the ceiling
Buy another round
Lonely but for feeling
I can hang around (yeah)
I can hang around (yeah)
-
The clock I know
It takes time to fall
As the fall I'll do
If only for you
-
And the chance to run
Has left me spun
Run around the core
Of what I need you for
-
The disaster
And after all I need you to remind myself
-
But it's my fault
It's not my fault
I can't hear the pain
Well pause no more
I've never prayed before (yeah)
Never prayed before
-
(doo doo doot doo doo doo)
-
(chorus)
Ya glance at the ceiling
Buy another round
Lonely but for feeling
That I can hang around
I can hang around



BETWEEN YOU AND I
===================
So now she's on her way
Home from work alone for dinner
Close the door to the microwave
Underneath that phone that just won't ring
-
Sittin' on the bus
Stare a hole right through the floor
Listening to the squeaky door
Open and close at a stop that's never fine
-
They say if it's well enough
Just leave it alone and they would never
Think to call your bluff
The lie believed 'til your standing all exposed
-
(chorus)
Oh you'll confide
And all those fools will slide
Between you and I
(yeah) Between you and I
-
I've seen that look before
On someone else
Years ago and it's come
Around again
-
Excuse me while I place
A blame on you the game has conjured now
-
And it never was your fault
The wind just seemed to carry the spit your way
-
(chorus)
My time is spent
So all those years can blend
Between you and I
-
(chorus)
Why'd you confide?
Then all your friends can slide
Between you and I
Between you and I
Between you and I
Between you and I
-
Well the effort to forget
And nature's moving far too slow
The effort to forget
I still recall the effort to forget


UNDER THE LIGHTHOUSE
=======================

Down here under the lighthouse
Upstairs you see for miles
Keep my name under the white out
And just let me miss you all the while (yeah)
-
now i sit here with your letter
It's pushin' hard on my brain
You think they should shrink it
Well baby I think that's insane
-
(chorus)
No you woulda left me anyway
Well I'll just bow my head
I swear you might've left me anyway
So I'll leave you instead (yeah)
-
When I told you that I'm sorry
You told me that I'm full of fear
But when the music is just too loud
Well it's not your voice I hear (yeah)
-
(chorus)
Well you woulda left me anyway
So I'll just bow my head
I swear you might've left me anyway
So I'll leave you instead
-
Be alone
Let me bow my head
Cuz I'd rather be alone
Be alone
Be alone
Be alone

-

BY THE WAY

Lyrics not available.


OH MY
=======
You say I'm obsessive..
I don't wanna hear
Overly posessive..
Who, when, and where?
When your arms go around another..
Well I'll turn my back why bother? (yeah)
-
Forget the importance
Of what I mean to you
I'll drown all the rodents
And chase after you
Well I've made my mistakes and know it
And I need a chance to blow it
-
(chorus)
Oh oh my!
Who's stolen my right? (yeah)
-
Am I gettin' greedy..
..for what's already mine?
I need all the rations
I don't stand in line
And I'll scale the wall
Only if you feed the rope
But I'll slip and fall

-
(chorus)
Oh oh my!
Who'll ever believe and why?
-
Oh oh my!
I'm the last in line..
-
You say I'm obsessive..
I don't wanna hear
Overly posessive..



HOW WOULD YOU KNOW?
========================
 I want you in the wrong way
What's tomorrow if you've got today
And if you subscribe to my way
You erase all of this anyway
Out in the mountainss and granola
That lies a little bit east of all ya
-
Hold out your hands
Oh such little hands
Lie to your man
Stay wise to the plan
-
'Cept drivin makes no sense
Since I don't even have a license
And we could walk and get as far
It just might take a little bit longer
There's your dealer on the corner
Just giving himself a boner
-
Hold out your hands
Stay wise to the plan
-
(chorus)
Cuz what you got is what you need
Here then I don't wanna hear the rest
And if you ever had a thing to sell
Then you know what you got
-
Why would you care
If it's everywhere
And dont leave me here
I'm always alone
But how would you know?
-
I fall down the shaft
Nothing to grab
On to pull me up

Just like long ago

But how would you know?
-
How would you know?
-
So you need me for the wrong things
But now you've got yourself a bird who sings
And you left me for your owner
And the mountains and granola
-

So hold out your hands
Oh such little hands
-
(chorus)

If what you got is what you need
Here then I don't wanna hear the rest
And if you ever had a thing to sell
Then get rid of the lie
-

If what you got is what you need
Here then I don't wanna hear the rest
And everybody's got a thing to sell
I don't need what you got
