No Wings To Speak Of

The End Of An Era

Upon Beauty Rests - Lines Full Of Lies And A Thousand Roses

A song with lyrics originally from the song Bug Parade by Polar Bear Club.

Lyrics:
The lips I've been watching are yours
You and your mom are talking about lord knows
Dim lights in the kitchen, the TV's so low
The lips I've been watching are moving slowly
For the first time, I'm glad you're not including me
I couldn't speak if you did, I'm staring at your lips
The bugs at my back porch light, like confetti on my head
This makes me shake, should have stayed at your place
But I have to work, and you've got to study,
this boy is not spent, forever unlucky
Minutes away, but miles apart
For the first time, I'm glad you're not including me
I couldn't speak if you did, I'm staring at your lips
I hope your mom isn't looking at me,
and thinking "What the fuck's he staring at?"
Of course, it's just these late night talks with you,
late night drives alone
And I'm finding I'm losing from straining and confusing
I'm left awake, and I'm dead, defeated and dismissed
I should have stayed with you
Minutes away but miles apart
Minutes away, but miles apart.
I should have stayed with you!
Minutes away, but miles apart....
I should have stayed with you.
defeated; defeated!
defeated and dismissed.
I should have stayed with you

Bug Parade

A song with lyrics originally from "What She Said" by Downtown Singapore

Lyrics:
Believe in what you think is real
The time it takes for her to steal
Its true
Its true
Its true
Its true
Feast your eyes over there
The perfect blunt to keep you undone
you know that she's the one
Believe it or not
you're staring at her hips
A cigarette in between her lips
The prize is in the bag, yeah

She knew before she came
She likes to play the game
She's all the time in the
It's true
It's true
Always

The worlds collide in between your head
The smell of men wanting her instead
Her intent is just to play
She new before she came
She likes to play the game
She's all the time in the world

Believe in what you think is real
The time it takes for her to steal
Its true
Its true
Its true
Its true
Always

She moves like the devil
And knows what is evil
She'll rip your heart out
And find another play
Believe in what you think is real
The time it takes for her to steal
Its true
Its true
Its true
Its true

What She Said

A song with lyrics originally from "Still Breathing" by Stars Hide Fire on the album A Shortcut to Loss.

Lyrics:
Today (These days)
I′m shattered (I'm better)
I feel as if I don′t matter much (I don't want to feel)
Is this the end of me?
And I've got (I have)
This letter (Forever)
Unread, I′m glad I never sent it, but (This is all of me)
You know I′d rather write than speak
It's hard explaining when you′re wrong
It's hard forgiving when you′re strong
As I burn out and rot...
As I burn out and rot...
This fire's burning down these walls
This world′s not meant for you, and...
I'm still breathing
My lung's bleeding
I′m leaving now
Do we always have to end like this?
I′m still breathing
Air through collapsed lungs
Through collapsed lungs
Today (today)
I'm stronger (I'm bitter)
Knowing that I don't belong to her (I just want to feel)
Took you to give me strength
And I use (I have)
Four letters (forever)
To form words that help me to forget her (for you to find me)
You know I only curse when I'm weak
As I burn out and rot...
As I burn out and rot...
This fire's burning down these walls
This world′s not meant for you, and...
I'm still breathing
My lung's bleeding
I′m leaving now
Do we always have to end like this?
I′m still breathing
Air through collapsed lungs
Through collapsed lungs
As time runs out
(As time runs out)
As I burn out and rot
(As I burn out and rot)
As I burn out and rot
(As I burn out and rot)
As I burn out and rot, as I burn out
I'm still breathing
My lung′s bleeding
I'm leaving now
Do we always have to end like this?
And I′m still breathing without you
And I'm still bleeding without you
I′m still breathing
Air through collapsed lungs
(Through collapsed lungs)
Cause I'm still breathing
And I'm still breathing without you
Cause I′m still breathing
...and I′m still yours...

Still Breathing

A song with lyrics originally from "Nothing New To Me" by Burning Years.

Lyrics:
Watch me sink where I lay
Is it obvious I dread the space between?
Unsettled I'll settle with this
I mold myself how you see fit

Sweep away the dust and continuity of me
You trade my place for wealth, security
and wait for me to take the blame for everything
I guess we're not all that you need

Nothing new to me
Your pockets full of apathy

Lie to me
You trace and shape my insecurities
Outlined in the time you never gave to me
Visibly, you sever every opportunity to be a constant to me

With eagerness, you left us both astray
Without a thought or remorse
I'm carrying the weight
Is it wrong to think I'll never feel the same?
I face the fact, there's faith I lack, I'll take the flak
and stay in place

Nothing New To Me

A song with lyrics originally from Got Some Purple Stuff... by Sydney

I've got this trigger finger locked in
Compressed to kill sound and
You're running through my sights
I know I'm always on your mind
So simple everyone is watching and
Every second is another chance to turn this all around
I can say goodbye
[chorus] 
Fight all the pain that brings you down
I've got a lot of things to tell you now
It's just pathetic cause I try to make sense
You're not getting it
Such a sad sound (such a sad sound tonight)
Don't you dare put up a fight!
Such a sad sound (such a sad sound tonight)
You know the worst part was your right!
I've got this trigger finger locked in
Compressed to kill sound and
You're running through my sights
I know I'm always on your mind
So simple everyone is watching and
Every second is another chance to turn this all around
I can say goodbye
She took me outside
Led me to the alley
Spouted some shit I never really could understand
I just swear that I never wanna see you again
It's alright, I'm alright
I take it back now
You know i wanna see you again
I'm so sorry, said I'm so sorry
It's too late because we're never gonna feel it again
But you haunt me like a bad dream
I've got this trigger finger locked in
Compressed to kill sound and
You're running through my sights
I know I'm always on your mind
So simple everyone is watching and
Every second is another chance to turn this all around
I can say goodbye
It's the final chance, final vision
I heard she said she's got her problems
But she's only 17
It's that final glance towards perdition
And I know she's got her problems
I've got this trigger finger locked in
Compressed to kill sound and
You're running through my sights
I know I'm always on your mind
So simple everyone is watching and
Every second is another chance to turn this all around
I can say goodbye. GOODBYE
