billy talent - billy talent

Constant quick fixes, don't make no sense
Hop on bandwagons, you make me sick

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
(When you're living in the shadows)
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
(When you're living in the shadows)
[x2]

Distant loud chuckles, keep me awake
Awkward instances won't make you hip

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
(When you're living in the shadows)
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
(When you're living in the shadows)
[x2]

We've said this all before, your shadow's at the door
We've said this all before, your shadow's at the door
There's darkness in the hall and we won't take the fall!
And we won't take the fall!

Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
(When you're living in the shadows)
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
(When you're living in the shadows)
[x4]

billy talent - beach balls

"Do it again"
She said to me.
So I nailed my hand to the baseboard floor.
Hysterically,
Laughing at me,
She begged the question and I begged for more.
Now I water,
The thorn you rammed,
Deep into my side watch it fertalize.
'Cause you shoved your finger,
Right down my throat,
And you made me puke up all of my pride.

Pop the beach balls,
Burn the photos,
C-4 your safe,
And you'll never grow old.
So get out of dodge,
And become a thought,
Cause once you?re a thought, hopefully you're forgot.

If we break up,
Don?t write a song that would,
Drag my name through the shit, the mud.
'Cause I?ve seen some solid swimmers who drowned,
When you unleashed the dam and cause the flood.
But with free choice,
There comes freewill.
And I?m so happy she decided to leave,
'Cause now I?m alone.
The demons come home
And now my pen is rolling up it?s sleeve.

Pop the beach balls,
Burn the photos,
C-4 your safe,
And you'll never grow old.
So get out of dodge,
And become a thought,
'Cause once you?re a thought, hopefully you're forgot.

Pop the beach balls,
Burn the photos,
C-4 your safe,
And you'll never grow old.
So get out of dodge,
And become a thought,
'Cause once you?re a thought, hopefully you're forgot.

Because my morals have begun to decay,
And all my friends have the same thing to say.
They say that good times have faded away.
They say that their all worried about me.
'Cause I feed birds in the cemetery,
And I rake leaves off the grass in my grave.
Because my memory lane is now paved.
(Nothing wrong)
My memory lane is now paved.
(There?s nothing wrong)
My memory lane is now paved.
My memory lane is now paved.
(There?s nothing wrong)
But now my memory?s back and there?s nothing wrong!
There?s nothing wrong.
There?s nothing wrong.
There?s nothing wrong.
There?s nothing wrong.
I said there?s nothing wrong!
There?s nothing wrong.
There?s nothing wrong.
There?s nothing wrong.

billy talent - bird in the basement

Well Maybe it's us but I really think that it could be you
We were head over feet it was ironic that our dreams had come true
So I packed up all my luggage and headed for the coast
Spandex, peanut butter, and more jam on my toast

We don't mean no harm
It's just honesty's priority
And we just broke our break
Handshakes
The more we give the more you take
But it's so hard when everything's fake

Tell us that we blow and we'll tell you, 'You suck!'
Throw another battery at us and we'll duck
Unpack all my luggage
Nothing else to do
There's a method to our madness and it stems from you

We don't mean no harm
It's just honesty's priority
And we just broke our break Handshakes
The more we give the more you take
But it's so hard when everything's fake When everything's fake
We'll be okay
I will wonder
We will be okay

billy talent - bloody nails and broken heart

Lay down, lay down with your drunken fools,
I never thought you could be so cruel.
And all the rumours I heard were true,
You had another man in the room.
Peel off the banner just from the wound,
I still have plenty of scars to prove.
I'm sick of coverin' up the truth,
So now I'm takin' it back from you.

From the start, drew a target on my heart,
So you can throw your poison darts.
You'll never kill, never kill.

You left a trail right from the start,
Of bloody nails and broken hearts.
And you keep tearin' them apart,
With bloody nails and broken hearts.

Yeah!

Now I know fairy tales don't come true,
And Cinderella don't fit the shoe.
Some day I'll get back the love I gave,
Some day you'll pay for the mess you've made.

From the start, drew a target on my heart,
So you can throw your poison darts.
You'll never kill, never kill, never kill.

You left a trail right from the start,
Of bloody nails and broken hearts.
And you keep tearin' them apart,
With bloody nails and broken hearts.

You left a trail right from the start,
Of bloody nails and broken hearts.
And I bet you thought I'd miss your bitter kiss.

Your bitter kiss, your bitter kiss,
I'll never miss your bitter kiss.
Your bitter kiss, your bitter kiss,
I'll never miss your bitter kiss.

So now I'm takin' it back from you,
(So now I'm takin' it back from you)
Yeah now I'm takin' it back from you.

You left a trail right from the start,
Of bloody nails and broken hearts.
And you keep tearin' them apart,
With bloody nails and broken hearts.

You left a trail right from the start,
Of bloody nails and broken hearts.
And I bet you thought I'd miss your bitter kiss.

Your bitter kiss, your bitter kiss

billy talent - burn the evidence

In a garage, beside a house, there is a luxury Sedan
And for his next monthly installment,
He?s gonna go out with a bang!
Boy who always did what he was told,
Was promised to be king when he was old

Hit the brakes, hit the glass,
Time to shake the hands of fate
The mistakes of the past,
Flashed before his face

There is a man, intensive care
When he awakes he will declare,
?I?ve been dead for 20 years!
I won?t let 20 more go by??
Boy who always did what he was told,
Bought the only dream that he was sold

Hit the brakes, Hit the glass,
Time to shake the hands of fate
The mistakes of the past,
Flashed before his face

Burn the evidence? of my existence,
Clear the ashes on the ground
Burn the evidence? of all these things,
That pull my spirit down

Ever feel like you?ve been cheated,
Following what they believe?
Don?t shake the hands of fate,
Don?t shake the hands of fate,
There?s no more time to waste!

Burn the evidence? of my existence,
Clear the ashes on the ground
Burn the evidence? of all these things,
That pull my spirit down

Burn the evidence!
Don?t shake the hands of fate,
There?s no more time to waste!

billy talent - covered in cowardice

Twisted tongues will place you in their category
Face to face you'll hear them tell a different story
Loose lips may sink ships, but honesty's forever
Eyes of envy try to cut and try to sever

Cowards that hide behind their words
Don't care if feelings will get hurt
Beware the voice without a face
That's hidden underneath them...

(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you see them?!

Can't you hear them?!
Beware the voice without a face
That's hidden underneath a...

(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you see them?!
(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you hear them?!
Cowards that hide behind their words
Don't care whose feelings will get hurt
Their eyes are blinded by their rage
Beware the voice without a face

When your insecure, they'll find the fuel to start a fire
They're bitter pricks with only hatred to inspire
Level heads pray their revenge will make it better
Trust your instinct like you trust what's in the mirror

Cowards that hide behind their words
Don't care if feelings will get hurt
Beware the voice without a face
That's hidden underneath them...

(Covered In Cowardice)
Can't you see them?!

billy talent - cut the curtains

Oh my girl
Your so hot when you walk you melt snow
And now that disco has finally grown old
Lets buy back our souls
So lets see
Ya we've got 5 bucks between you and me
My mental dishes are finally clean
So cleared are we

Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
The intermission's a mission on it's own
The intermission's a mission on it's own

Now here seems our wax wings have melted away
And we've only been here for one day
My faith fades away
So don't be a grey cloud when there's none in the sky
We found theres no hidden treasure to find
At least we tryed

Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home
The intermission is a mission on it's own
The intermission is a mission on it's own
So dry your raincheques you cant put time on them
So dry your raincheques you cant put time on them
Grab your suitcase we don't have time to fold
Grab your suitcase we don't have time to fold

There is no doubt you throw your inbox out
There is no doubt you throw your inbox out
There is no doubt you throw your inbox out
There is no doubt you throw your inbox out...

Cut the Curtains the actors have gone home

Grab your suitcase you don't have time to fold
Grab your suitcase you don't have time to fold
We don't have no time to fold
We don't have no time to fold
we don't have no time to fold...

billy talent - definition of destiny

Won't you stop, take a breath
Find a moment to reflect
On the pure and simple choices that we fail to see

From the worst to the best
From the east coast to the west
On a never-ending quest to end our misery

So cut to the chase, it's time to escape
Before it's too late
Yeah pick up the pace, catch up with fate
It's slipping away
So get off my road, no I won't be told
'Cause I got my own (definition of destiny)
Yeah take back control, and don't let it go,
The future's unknown (definition of destiny)
(definition of destiny)

Punch the clock to a own
While our lives are put on hold
When did all our childhood dreams begin to disappear?

Well a long time ago
We had passion, we had goals
Why is life so set in stone it doesn't have to be?

So cut to the chase, it's time to escape
Before it's too late
Yeah pick up the pace, catch up with fate
It's slipping away
So get off my road, no I won't be told
'Cause I got my own (definition of destiny)
Yeah take back control, and don't let it go,
The future's unknown (definition of destiny)

o get off my road, no I won't be told
'Cause I got my own (definition of destiny)
Yeah take back control, and don't let it go,
The future's unknown.

Along the way, we lost our way
So will you change or stay the same?
So in between, reality
And fantasy is destiny

So cut to the chase, it's time to escape
Before it's too late
Yeah pick up the pace, catch up with fate
It's slipping away
So get off my road, no I won't be told
'Cause I got my own (definition of destiny)
Yeah take back control, and don't let it go,
The future's unknown (definition of destiny)

Yeah take back control, and don't let it go,
The future's unknown (definition of destiny)
'Cause I got my own
Yeah I got my own
Yeah I got my own(definition of destiny)
(definition of destiny)

billy talent - devil in a midnight mass

A devil in a midnight mass,
He prayed behind stained glass
A memory of Sunday class
Resurrected from the past

I was told and the world wouldn't believe me!
And the cold, tainted walls are decieving.

Hold your breath and count to four
Pinky swears don't work no more
Footsteps down the hallway floor
Getting closer to my door
I was alive but now I'm singing

Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night till they find the knife(Guilty, Guilty!)
Won't make it right
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night till they find the knife(guilty guilty!)
Won't make it right
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night till they find the knife (you're guilty!)

A devil in a midnight mass,
the temple he trespassed.
Attempt a dozen hits,
pulls a serpent from the sands.

I was told and the world wouldn't believe me!
And the cold, tainted walls are decieving.

Hold your breath and count to four
Pinky swears don't work no more
Put my trust in God that day
Not the man that taught his way
I was alive but now I'm singing

Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night till they find the knife(Guilty, Guilty!)
Won't make it right
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night till they find the knife(guilty guilty!)
Won't make it right
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night till they find the knife (you're guilty!)

Whisper, whisper, don't make a sound.
Your bed is made and it's in the ground

Whisper, whisper, don't make a sound.
Your bed is made and it's in the ground
Silent night at the edge of your knife. (forget the healthy!)
Won't make it right.
Silent night for the rest of my life.
Silent night at the edge of your knife. (you're guilty!)

Whisper, whisper, don't make a sound.
Your bed is made, it's in the ground. (x2)

Whisper, whisper, don't make a sound.
Your bed is made and it's in the ground. (x4)

billy talent - devil on my shoulder

As I get closer, my dreams get farther
I climb that ladder, but you kick it over
Thirsty for water, you give me vinegar
When I drink your medicine, it just makes me sicker

I dug a hole so deep
I'm gonna drown in my mistakes
Can't even sell my soul
'Cause it ain't worth shit to take

I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower)
The hounds of hell are getting closer (closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)

Follow the rainbow, my lucky omen
There ain't no pot of gold, just copper tokens
I found the key to life, the lock was broken
All my accomplishments, are best left unspoken

I dug a hole so deep
I'm gonna drown in my mistakes
Can't even sell my soul
'Cause it ain't worth shit to take

I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower)
The hounds of hell are getting closer (closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)

My horror story is nearly over
I said I'm sorry, but I was sober
I beg for mercy from my infernal friend
The one that drops the nails into my coffin

I got the devil on my shoulder
I got the devil on my shoulder

I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower)
They come to take me, take me over (closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)

billy talent - diamond into the landmine

Slapped my face, slammed the door
A dozen roses lay on the floor
I saw her friends and I was told
She blocked my number from her cell phone
You said we were meant to be
Now this obsession is killing me
Until I have a heart attack
I'll keep on trying to win you back

Alone at last,
I can't wait till we're alone at last
All i wanted was a second chance, second chance
To hold you in my arms at last

Forever, forever
I'll walk a thousand miles
Just to tell her, to tell her
Our love is still alive
And I'll never, I'll never
I'll never let it die
Well you'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine

I'm not so sure about this word
But she kept calling me insecure
I tried to quit but there's no use
Cause I'm addicted to her abuse
She's in control of everything
I'm just a puppet, she pulls my strings
Denying truth, I'll test my fate
And keep on playing this wicked game

Alone at last,
I can't wait till we're alone at last
All i wanted was a second chance, second chance
To hold you in my arms at last

Forever, forever
I'll walk a thousand miles
Just to tell her, to tell her
Our love is still alive
And I'll never, I'll never
I'll never let it die
Well you'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
Better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
Better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
Waiting to explode

We're dancing on thin ice before
Frozen from the winter's cold
And if it were to crack below
I'd never let you go

Alone at last,
I can't wait till we're alone at last
All i wanted was a second chance, second chance
To hold you in my arms at last

Forever, forever
I'll walk a thousand miles
Just to tell her, to tell her
Our love is still alive
And I'll never, I'll never
I'll never let it die
Well you'd better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
Better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
Better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
Waiting to explode

Better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
Better watch your step
She's a diamond on a landmine
Better not touch
She's a diamond on a landmine
Better to forget
She's a diamond on a landmine
Waiting to explode

billy talent - ever fallen in love

You spurn my natural emotions
You make me feel like dirt
And I'm hurt
And if I start a commotion
I run the risk of losing you
And that's worse

Ever fallen in love with someone?
Ever fallen in love?
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love? (LoveÂ?)
In love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

I can't see much of a future
Unless we find out what's to blame
What a shame
And we won't be together much longer
Unless we realize that we are the same

Ever fallen in love with someone?
Ever fallen in love?
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love? (LoveÂ?)
In love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

You disturb my natural emotions
You make me feel like dirt
And I'm hurt
And if I start a commotion
I'll only end up losing you
And that's worse

Ever fallen in love with someone?
Ever fallen in love?
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love? (LoveÂ?)
In love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

Ever fallen in love with someone?
Ever fallen in love?
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love? (LoveÂ?)
In love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

Ever fallen in love?
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love? (LoveÂ?)
In love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

Fallen in love with
Ever fallen in love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

billy talent - fallen leaves

In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves? on the ground

I hitched a ride, until the coast
To leave behind, all of my ghosts
Searching for something, I couldn?t find at home

Can?t get no job, can you spare a dime?
Just one more hit, and I?ll be fine
I swear to God, this?ll be my one last time!

In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves? on the ground
Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves? on the ground

When it gets dark, in Pigeon Park
Voice in my head, will soon be fed
By the vultures, that circle round the dead!

In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves? on the ground
Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves? on the ground

I never once thought, I?d ever be caught!
Staring at sidewalks, hiding my track marks!
I left my best friends, or did they just leave me?

In a crooked little town, they were lost and never found
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves? on the ground
Run away before you drown, or the streets will beat you down
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves? on the ground

Run away before you drown!
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves, fallen leaves? on the ground

billy talent - how it goes

Every body is tired and poor and sick of trying!
If you see me on a corner will you stop or will you splash me?
Take a look at what we've become, nothing more than silhouettes of
A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don't want it!

So I hold my breath till my heart explodes,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!
You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!

Shitty weather, bad timing, lucky penny glues to the ground,
dirty look from total stranger, hope you get lost and your not found!
Take a look at, what we've become, nothing more than silhouettes of
A pretty family on postcard picture perfect, I don't want it!

So I hold my breath till my heart explodes,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!
You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!

This is, how it, it goes!

So unscrew my head, and then rinse it out,
Polish my thoughts, turn into doubts!

So I hold my breath till my heart explodes,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!
You can steal my body but you can't steal my soul,
Cause this is how it is and this is how it goes!
