I Am Trying Very Hard To Be Here Lyrics

Source: workings out from my brain

Before you came, what was your name
Did you look like me?
No-ones from here, no-one my dear
Not even the trees.
So change your name, just keep your face
We're temporary anyway
Before you came,we played this game in our masquerade

(FLASH FLASH CAR CRASH)
We're not fixtures
(QUICK NOW QUICK)
Take our picture
(FLASH FLASH CAR CRASH)
We're not fixtures
(WHAOH)
Whaoh

What was your past
When was your last time that you recall
Someone you knew
Was someone who asked nothing of you?
So lose your past.
I'm sure you'll find it's in the way all the time
Before you're through
you're someone who looks a lot like you.

(FLASH FLASH CAR CRASH)
We're not fixtures
(QUICK NOW QUICK)
Take our picture
(FLASH FLASH CAR CRASH)
We're not fixtures
(WHAOH)
Whaoh.

We can't remember the seasons
We chant in the manmade snow.
We can't recall the feelings that we cannot show.
Oh!

(WHAOH)
(FLASH FLASH CAR CRASH)
We're not fixtures
(QUICK NOW QUICK)
Take our picture
(FLASH FLASH CAR CRASH)
We're not pictures
WHAOH
Whaoh
(FLASH FLASH CAR CRASH)
We're not fixtures
Quick now quick
Take our picture
(FLASH FLASH CAR CRASH)
We're not fixtures
(WHAOH)
Whaoh

(HEY)
(HEY)

End Transmission Lyrics

Source: Metro Lyrics

Pull the top down,
use your knees to drive
I'll make it worth your while,
just let me taste the sky
You pressed your mouth on mine
and fed me a star
And said " We never, can truly, know who we are "
Know who we are
With the lights out and the night inside
The broken radio was playing suicide
I felt myself falling,
I confess to you I saw a body,
you said you'd seen a few

This night has only just begun
If there's discretion that you'd not abandon,
now's the time
We'll burn against the morning sun
Go grab your bag,
I'll bring the gun, the gun

Keep the top down,
use your knees to drive
I'll hide these words,
they're only yours to find
You pressed your mouth on mine
and said they'd call us stars Then said
"We never can truly know who we are"

This night has only just begun
If there's discretion that you'd not abandon,
now's the time
We'll burn against the morning sun
Go grab your bag, I'll bring the gun

Everything was burning bright,
Everyone was frightened, You, said "Stay strong"
Everybody knowing that what we'd invited,
still,
Remains when we're gone

This night has only just begun
If there's discretion that you'd not abandon,
now's the time
We'll burn against the morning sun
Go grab your bag, I'll bring the gun
Oh!
This night has only just begun
If there's discretion that you'd not abandon,
now is the time
We'll burn against the morning sun
Go grab your bag, I'll bring the gun,
the gun I'll bring the gun Oh.

Darling, I Want To Destroy You Lyrics

SOURCE: Metro Lyrics

Were you dying to go?
You just looked so exposed,
demure through the dark dancing lights.
I glided by.
I can't deny that the shadows betrayed you
and I on that night.

Oh, I must confess I am overdressed.
Are you not impressed? Darling I want to.
I'll confess this too,
must you know the truth this is all for you.
Darling I want to destroy you.

As you reached for my hand did you then understand?
It was I who would lead you that night.
When you begged to know I was glad to show that I needn't be scared,
either way I still bight.

Oh, I must confess I am overdressed.
Are you not impressed?
Darling I want to.
I'll confess this too,
must you know the truth this is all for you.
Darling I want to destroy you.

So here's the final scene when I finally come clean.
I've watched you for years.
And here's my favorite part,
where you beg for my heart and I disappear.

Oh, I must confess I am overdressed.
Are you not impressed?
Darling I want to.
I'll confess this too,
must you know the truth this is all for you.
Darling I want to destroy you.

Veronica Sawyer Smokes Lyrics

Source: Metro Lyrics


Oh my story is not the oldest of it's kind.
I was too touched to see you clearly,
far too young to realize
I had loved so dearly you,
who's world I had designed, but
the sweet smoke came with mirrors
and it brought tears
to my wide eyes.

Dying just to see you...dying since I misconstrued
your blue heart, black eyes, feigning falling, words I won't forget.
I died right when I saw you while you shared that cigarette.

Oh I saw you every time I closed my eyes,
in the Hughes film I had scored,
produced and starred in, in my mind.
I could recite you, well, I'd written every line... but you
strayed far from my flawless script on which I'd spent a
lifetime!

Falling over dead. Dying since I had misread
your blue heart, black eyes, feigning falling, words I won't forget.
I died right when I saw you while you shared that cigarette.
Falling over dead. Dying since I had misread
your blue heart, black eyes, feigning falling, words I won't forget.
I died right when I saw you while you shared that cigarette

LA The Roxy theatre Release party for Crash Love & Live Show

On September 29th, the US release date of Crash Love, there will be a Crash Love Release Party at The Roxy Theartre in LA. At this party, AFI will be performing live, probably they will be performing the entire tracklist of Crash Love aswell as a few of the Concert faves such as Days Of The Phoenix, Miss Murder, Love Like Winter, A Single Second and Girl's Not Grey. This release release party will be at night. If anyone achieves to get to this party, could they please send me an email of the setlist with photos and maybe even a few videos, as I cannot go as I live in the UK and am not a DF member yet. I also believe KROQ are hosting a competition to win three passes for this release party, Paramore's and another band. for more info about the competiton, head over to AFI News HQ or KROQ's offical site.
