Quietdrive - What Is What Lyrics

What Is What Lyrics - Quietdrive

Hear me out
Believe me not
To you this is just a game

Got to hide up in the leaves
Get away from what you did
Got to take these mysteries
For a better self live in fear
Choose your plan
Make it right
One more step
You'll slip and fight
Got today
And yesterday
And I remember what is

[Chorus:]
What is what?
And who is who?
And what am I supposed to do
When you say
This charade
Was created for you?

Hear me out
Believe me not
To you this is just a game

I don't understand that selflessness
It doesn't mix with regret
It doesn't matter what you do
You're in it for you
All the time against myself
I think I'm doing the right thing
But eventually it's only so
Interesting

[Chorus]

It's ok
Take away
All my thoughts
That I had proven by myself
You find a way
To confiscate
Back my dreams and destiny

It's ok
Take away
All my thoughts
That I had proven by myself
You find a way
To confiscate
Back my dreams and destiny

What
What
What
What
Hear me out
Believe me not
To you this is just a game

Quietdrive - Voice Of Reason Lyrics

Voice Of Reason Lyrics - Quietdrive

Would you let all your friends down?
Is your love in drugs and money?
Did you care enough?
Not before you said
It's not too late

We have waited all our lives
To become something more than nothing
Did you think more of us now?
I said

Chorus
It's not too late
I'm not that scared
Of it anymore
Oh yeah
That's why
You are the voice of reason
I know the reasons why
We've covered up our treason
Can't seem to find out why

(Can't seem to find out why)

So I'll take all your advice
And I'll check to see if I'm running
'Cause it's not like I can care enough
It's not too late

Chorus
(I'm sick and tired of pulling down)

I'll pinch the mouse trap on this one
I've had the most in on this one
(You'll turn away, you'll turn away)
I'll play my cards out on this hand
I'll separate it while I can
(You'll turn away, you'll turn away, you'll turn away, you'll turn away)

(You are the voice of reason)
(I know the reasons why)
You are the voice of reason
I know the reasons why
We covered up our treason
Can't seem to find out why
(I'm sick and tired of pulling down)

This time I'm not
Shy anymore
Now this time I'm not
Shy anymore
Now this time I'm not
Shy anymore
Now this time I'm not
Shy anymore

Quietdrive - Time After Time Lyrics

Time After Time Lyrics - Quietdrive

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion
Is nothing new
You say go slow
I fall behind
The 2nd hand unwinds

If you're lost you can look
And you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you
I'll be waiting
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time

Sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
Just what you've said
You say go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost you can look
And you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you
I'll be waiting
Time after time


After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows you're wondering
If I'm ok
Then you say go slow
I fall behind
The drumbeats out of time

If you're lost you can look
And you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you
I'll be waiting
Time after time

If you're lost you can look
And you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you
I'll be waiting
Time after time

Time after time
Time after time

Quietdrive - The Season Lyrics

The Season Lyrics - Quietdrive

I'm feeling mixed up
A little bit confused
When everything is left unsaid
I'm feeling left out
A little bit concerned
I'll play it out in my head

But I'm still afraid
That you haven't changed
(Give me a reason)
(To pull off your tshirt)
But I'm still ok
And I don't know why
(Tell me your secret)
(I won't tell your boyfriend now)
When you say that

[Chorus]
You're mixing me up now
You're pulling my teeth out
You're wishing my arguments away
I'll follow directions
I'll stick to your reasons
This isn't the season to go running away

Oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh oh, Oh

I'll leave you untouched
I never understood
I never questioned why you came
I want to hit it up
But you're still in charge
I know you'll be back some day

But I'm still afraid
That you haven't changed
(Give me a reason)
(To pull off your tshirt)
But I'm still ok
And I don't know why
(Tell me your secret)
(I won't tell your boyfriend now)
When you say that
You don't need me to feel

[Chorus]
But you don't understand
You don't
But you don't understand
You don't
But you don't understand
(I can't tell you how to)
You don't
(Feel when)
But you don't understand
(I'm on the outside and)
You don't
(You're all in)

[Chorus]
Whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
You don't understand

Quietdrive - Take Me Now Lyrics

Take Me Now Lyrics - Quietdrive

Why am I angry?
Why am I selfish?
Could it be that I'm
Just trying to destroy us?

So come back down
From where you are
All of your friends will be erased
So come back down
I've waited long enough for you

Take me now
'Cause I won't give up on you
(I won't give up on you)
Take me now
'Cause I thought I'd be the one
You'd come back to

Why am I changing?
Why am I helpless?
This should be my right
But you found out how
And you found a way to save me

So come back down
From where you are
All of your friends will be erased
So come back down
I've waited long enough for you

Take me now
'Cause I won't give up on you
(I won't give up on you)
Take me now
'Cause I won't give up on you
(I won't give up on you)
Take me now
'Cause I won't give up on you
(I won't give up on you)
And I thought I'd be the one
Who would support you

You're the only thing
That drives me crazy
You're the only thing
That brings me down
You're the only one in the world
That can save me
Just take my hand
Don't let me down

Take me now
(Just take me now)
'Cause I won't give up on you
(I won't give up on you)
Take me now
'Cause I won't give up on you
I won't give up on you
Take me now
'Cause I won't give up on you
(I won't give up on you)
And I thought I'd be
And I thought I'd be the one
Who would support you
It's no doubt you'll be the one
Who won't take me

Quietdrive - Take A Drink Lyrics

Take A Drink Lyrics - Quietdrive

I never wanna be part of the herd,
I guess I was in case you haven't heard
Maybe you can tell that I can't stand
the way I want to be the included
I always want to be a mystery,
I always knew that 2 and 2 made three
I wish away the time I'm living in,
I never wanna see a smile again

It's not for sure
and I'm feeling
Like it's not for sure
Come on and take a drink with me
I don't think you can cope with it
I don't think you can handle it
Forgive my un-forgetfulness,
and take a drink with me

I wanted to be 2 but more than one
I only thought that I could be so dumb
Crush my heart with your new heels
I would beg for you but I don't kneel
I understand that you were living there
It never bothered me that I don't care
I wonder if I'll act on my impulse
I wonder if I'll leave when you say go

It's not for sure
and I'm feeling
Like it's not for sure
Come on and take a drink with me
I don't think you can cope with it
I don't think you can handle it
Forgive my un-forgetfulness,
and take a drink with me.

(Come on just take a drink with me)
If it's all you can take then I'll be okay
If it's all I can take then just pull me away...

But it's not for sure
and I'm feeling
Like it's not for sure
Come on and take a drink with me
I don't think you can cope with it
I don't think you can handle it
Forgive my un-forgetfulness,
and take a drink with me.

I never wanna be part of the herd
I guess I was in case you haven't heard
I wanna spend some time to make you see
so why not come and take a drink with me.

Quietdrive - Stones Lyrics

Stones Lyrics - Quietdrive

Another generation
Coming to grips with
Their own assimilation
People are waiting
The difference is in
The way that we look at the world
It makes attention
Lead in the back of our minds
Lead in the back of our minds

Chorus
Race and class distinction
Whatever does that mean
One billion different people thinking
All of the same damn things
Across the world
Minds over enemies
We are throwing stones
We all pick up the pieces
But in the end
We're water under that bridge

Another disintegration
Of the values we
Hold to be in revelation
People always think
They can be a big gun
In this world today
It makes attention
Break in the back of their minds
Break in the back of our minds

Chorus

We've come too far
To let it go and end like this
We've come too far
To let it go and end like this
We've come too far
To let it go and end like this
We've come too far
To let it go, let it go

Go! Go!

Across the world
Minds over enemies
We are throwing stones
We all pick up the pieces
But in the end
We're water under the bridge
Bridge bridge bridge bridge

Quietdrive - Starbright Lyrics

Starbright Lyrics - Quietdrive

Come home to your place
I've got a little while
Till I've gotta leave
You know there's been times
Where I couldn't lie to your face
But right now I'm looking at you
Through the window of your soul
I know those little dark holes are beautiful
But I, I hear the words I should be saying
I just wish that you could know
I just think that you should know

That your star is so bright
I can see your core
And you light up my life
So I can see more
I don't care if you're lost
Or you're scared
Or you never, ever
Never, ever wanna be friends

There's a small step outside your place
I've got a little wine
So I can taste all the bittersweet times
That I have felt again
But it's not too late to repair myself
From the damage done
Since I've been gone
And I know
I see the snow
It starts to fall down
I just think that I should go

'Cause your star is so bright
I can see your core
And you light up my life
So I can see more
I don't care if you're lost
Or you're scared
Or you never, ever
Never, ever wanna be friends

Please, please belong here
Please, please belong here
Please, please belong here
Belong here
You love me, you love me

'Cause your star is so bright
I can see your core
And you light up my life
So I can see more
I don't care if I get lost
And I'll see you again [x2]

Quietdrive - Something That I'm Not Lyrics

Something That I'm Not Lyrics - Quietdrive

Bide your time
And consider that
Whatever you need now
Is whatever you needed to pretend
Whenever the same four words
Fall again on my hand
I start to shake
And tell myself
That this is what it takes
To be that man

[Chorus:]
And I'm starting to remind myself
Of something I'm not
And it's starting to remind me that
I can never change
The way that I am

Pulling back
Remit your false impressions
That never helped you to climb
The taller ladders
But I never feel that right
Or will be ever again
I've started and stopped
And tell myself
That never again
Will I understand

[Chorus]

I never thought that
I would take this bet
Am I living now?
It's too insane
I always thought
I'm here
To follow yours
And that I'd
Take you down
And into my peers
Bring it out
It might exist
Baby the
Simpleness
And tough kids
I always thought I would
Overcome
And live to see the
Tragic fate

[Chorus]

The way that I
The way that I
The way that I am

Quietdrive - Sink Or Swim Lyrics

Sink Or Swim Lyrics - Quietdrive

And we swim forever
Stay the same forever

I talked to you today
You didn't seem depressed
The way I acted was
Nothing for you to test
And I feel so sad
That I've lost control

So many chances I
Feel like I must be wrong
I'm misdirected by
Communication's songs
And I feel so sad
That you wanted more

And we swim forever
Stay the same forever

And we're wasting over
Barren something
Over nothing
Like before
We've been sidelined
Resurrected
Don't deserve it
And what more

And we're wasting over
Barren something
Over nothing
Like before
We've been sidelined
Resurrected
Don't deserve it
And what more

And we swim forever
(And we swim forever)
And we swim forever
(And we swim forever)

Wait until you
Some know
What'd you say

Quietdrive - Seven Lyrics

Seven Lyrics - Quietdrive

Yesterday I spent all my time
Thinking of raising myself
Forever even with you
Now I'm just wasting all this energy
Making sure you're not to blame
Never cursing you
All the people you
Put to shame
Only alone forever
You set me up feeling this way
Deceiving me into or
Blowing my mind away
You're my new worst enemy

[Chorus:]
Maybe you'll see
This is not for me
This is not for me
And the thing of energy
It can't make this right
No please not tonight
And I tried to forget
That by burning these bridges
I'm burning you down
And there's nothing
I won't try
At least I can say
That I'm living my life
And you say to me
What about your own security
And you're throwing it
All away

Seven days being tried
I know I've been faithful
To my own dreams of divide
Wasting our lives together
Waiting 'til you start to break
Your house will come down
And with it all the scars that we've faced
Hopefully time won't be so easy
Check up on another one for me
My industries provided
I'm at the end of my leave
You're my new worst enemy

[Chorus]

Don't stay
Don't stay
Don't stay
(Fall, fall, fall, fall)
Please don't stay

And I tired to forget
That by burning these bridges
I'm burning you down
And there's nothing I won't try
At least I can say
That I'm living my life
And you say to me
What about your own security
And you're throwing it
All away

Quietdrive - Secret Lyrics

Secret Lyrics - Quietdrive

Hey, bride of mine
I love you
So why'd you find another
Who would make
Love with you?

Death do us part
Might be true
Before the doctor asks me
What did I do
What did I do

Hey, here's a crime
If you've got time
I'll tell you just what I'll do
(Can you keep a secret, secret?)

Hey, bow down low
Does it go
When your friends don't even know
(You think I'm innocent)

I'm just an arrogant boy
Now you've found me out
I'm just an arrogant boy
I'm the last one around
How did I get myself
Into this secret?
Into a secret?

Hey, is it real?
Want to feel
Dark regret for what you've done
(Can you keep a secret, secret?)

Hey, bow down low
Does it go
When your friends don't even know
(You think I'm innocent)

I'm just an arrogant boy
Now you've found me out
I'm just an arrogant boy
I'm the last one around
How did I get myself
Into this secret?
Into a secret?

What did I do?
What did I do?

Hey, bow down low
Does it go
When your friends don't even know
(You think I'm innocent)

I'm just an arrogant boy
Now you've found me out
I'm just an arrogant boy
I'm the last one around
I'm not the only one
That can hear you
That can hear you whisper
I should have know
To never trust you
Now I'm sinking deeper
Why did I get myself
Into a secret?
Into a secret?
Why did I get myself
Into a secret?
(Into a secret?)

Quietdrive - Rush Together Lyrics

Rush Together Lyrics - Quietdrive

They grew up in the same old town
Never knowing the other was around
Read from the same damn books
But never caught each other's looks
But one day the sun will shine, I know
For their eyes have told me so
Chasing advice from those who say
I've lost my mind

[Chorus]
Rush together to find each other
No it's too late, you can never wait for luck
Together playing the same instrument
That you still can't hear at all

(At all, at all)

So that's how the story goes so far
I'll tell you the rest, but now
I'm tired of what I think
A situation where I can't sing
But I hate the vagrant life, I know
Nothing has been more sold, 'till now
Living my life after those who say
I've lost my mind

[Chorus]
So what do you say
What do you say
Can we turn this clock back thirteen years
And relate
I won't mind
Can we stay
But isn't it fate
Isn't it fate
That we spilled our guts out
On this very day
I don't mind
I want to
I want to
Rush together to find each other (stay)
No it's too late you can never wait for luck
Together playing the same instrument
Are you listening at all
Are you listening at all

Quietdrive - Rise From The Ashes Lyrics

Rise From The Ashes Lyrics - Quietdrive

I felt this way before
I fell right through the floor
And I am certain I've become
Broken, bruised, and numb
Would you restate your opinion
And hold back your investigation
Do you see the sins you're making
Cause I've made them all before

I will now rise from the ashes
Don't call me pretentious
I'm sitting here making my own rules
And if I fall from the ceiling
You'll be down there waiting
And my only hope
Is falling down

And by my own admission
You'll find that my condition
Is worse than you imagined
You're better off if you know
But every time before that I
Tried to measure pain inside
You can't ignore it
Right now I can't ignore it

I will now rise from the ashes
Don't call me pretentious
I'm sitting here making my own rules
And if I fall from the ceiling
You'll be down there waiting
To finish me

Inside of me (x7)
I'll take my heart
And rip my feelings out
Before they make me doubt
And I'll fall down with flames burning
Alive again
As long as you know that

I will now rise from the ashes
Don't call me pretentious
I'm sitting here making my own rules
And if I fall from the ceiling
You'll be down there waiting
To finish me
Finish me

Quietdrive - Ransom Diaries Lyrics

Ransom Diaries Lyrics - Quietdrive

It's all a waste of my time
To be analyzed by my peers

Its all I can do to break away from anyone
Rips cuts scars across like painting glycerin
But I'll take my heart and brain and fight until I fall

Take your breath and selfish words
Cast the memories aside
Realign what you feel
It's another point to take
Hard to separate the feel
From when I'm awake
Spend time
Spend time on your own
So I'll take my chance with fate
Saying no
Whoaaa
And I'll find that my path fades
After all
Into dust
Before
I can fall

It's all a waste of my time
To be analyzed by my peers

Its all I can do to break away from anyone
Rips cuts scars across like painting glycerin

But I'll take my
Heart and brain
And fly until I
Fall
(Fall away)

It will take my
My whole life time
To be where I
Where I was before
I was this time

It will take my
My whole life time
To be where I
Was before I
Started taking sides
And wasting
Lifetimes
Loves
Like before

Quietdrive - Quite Clear Lyrics

Quite Clear Lyrics - Quietdrive

Evicted from the ocean
So far that I can see that
Evicted from the ocean
So far that I can see that

Passing by
My untrained eyes
Searching for
Your sentiment
Made me see
Six moves ahead
Why can't I
Make since of this

You went away
You went away
You went away
Why didn't you
You went away
I wouldn't stay
I couldn't change

Chorus
But it's not quite clear
And it's not quite dead
What went on that night
In my pain in my head
And I never got
To see you again
Anymore

I've been told
That I was wrong
Why can't we
Be us again

You went away
You went away
You went away
Why didn't you
You went away
I wouldn't stay
I couldn't change

Chorus

You could come stay
What'd you say when
I was lost
But you expected
I would come back home
Would come back home
What'd you think when
I was lost
But you pretended
I was lost
But you pretended I
Would come back home

Chorus

Evicted from the ocean
So far that I can see that
Evicted from the ocean
So far that I can see that

Quietdrive - Promise Me Lyrics

Promise Me Lyrics - Quietdrive

Three billion beating hearts
They want to beat as one
They may make us fake it
But the more the fake
The more we want to stay

Do we really have to take it?
As I step up to this microphone
As I crawl up to the podium
I see

We are the ones
We are the kids
That make them wish
They were alive
The chosen ones
The few, the proud
That make them wish
They never died

Make me an offer I can't refuse
Ask me those questions
That bother you
The stereo is on
It'll play our favorite songs
Promise me you'll always be the one
That makes my dreams come true

I've got this battle plan
We've got this war in hand
It fuels the fire
But this riot will stoke it
Higher and higher
We'll sing

We are the ones
We are the kids
That make them wish
They were alive
The chosen ones
The few, the proud
That make them wish
They never died

Make me an offer I can't refuse
Ask me those questions
That bother you
The stereo is on
It'll play our favorite songs
Promise me you'll always be the one
That makes my dreams come true

Your television says
It'll put love in your heads
We know they have it wrong
We'll put love in the song it sings

Promise me you'll always be the one
Promise me you'll always be the one
Promise me you'll always be the one
That makes my dreams come true
Promise me you'll always be the one
That makes my dreams come true

We are the ones
We are the kids
That make them wish
They were alive
The chosen ones
The few, the proud
That make them wish
They never died

Make me an offer I can't refuse
Ask me those questions
That bother you
The stereo is on
It'll play our favorite songs
Promise me you'll always be the one
Promise me you'll always be the one
Promise me, promise me
Promise me you'll always be the one
That makes my dreams come true

We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones

Quietdrive - Pretend Lyrics

Pretend Lyrics - Quietdrive

I can feel the rhythm of her body change
She listens to the seventies and likes to disco dance, whoa
Watch and see the way she pops a ritalin
I take a minute as I wait for it to settle in, uh oh

[Chorus:]
But this is the end
Of all we have
Of all we'll take
The visions of you will start to fade
And all we'll have will be these memories
When all that's left is self control
Your lies get lost it starts to show
Pretend she doesn't care
Pretend she doesn't care
When all you have are dirty rules
Your mind jumps back to self abuse
Pretend she doesn't care
Pretend she doesn't care

Wait for me to start a fire
You're fucking right I'll start this fire more than Lancelot
Watch and see the the way I move my hairy legs
You know I like to make them stare and make them sweat a bit

[Chorus]

Taste the metal irony
Of this slowly fading symphony
Appreciate my honesty
When I need you to believe that
I can try to forget you

When all that's left is self control
Your lies get lost it starts to show
Pretend she doesn't care
Pretend she doesn't care
When all that's left is self control
Pretend she doesn't care
Pretend she doesn't care
Care, care
When all that's left is self control
Your lies get lost it starts to show
Pretend she doesn't care
Pretend she doesn't care

When all that's left is rock and roll
And music could not save my soul
Pretend that I don't care
Pretend that I don't care

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
Yeah Yeah Yeah

Quietdrive - Perfectly Crazy Lyrics

Perfectly Crazy Lyrics - Quietdrive

Turning around
Is it everything beautiful
You hoped it would be
Does he toy with your fingers now?
Won't he cater to
Every last one of your needs?

It's unjust
I agree
Feed me a taste of you
Before I retreat

Are you eager infatually
Do your bruises speak evidence
Of all you won't be
I'll match all your hostility
Set the tone daily
But no boundaries decrease
And then I said, "I agree"
Are those tears meant for me?

Chorus
Just hold her hand
Don't let it go
Let it slip
Let it begin
Just hold her hand
It's perfectly crazy
You're perfectly crazy
Be crazy like me

Do you feel substantial nothingness?
Is your margin of error
Costing your life
Pharmaceutical happiness
If you knew how bland I made you
Would you open your eyes

Pureness
I agree
How much longer
Will you be drowning me

Chorus

Right about now I'm
Standing in the line
With my face on the track
And my life is on the line
I take a deep breath
Before I get on board
And I let it go, let it go
Let it all go

Just hold her hand
