Alkaline Trio - 100 Stories

You're in the next room sleeping and I'm shouting out a song for you
I shouldn't wake you over the furnace, but I should swear to someone you'd have loved every note
So dream a good one tonight

Alkaline Trio - 5-3-10-4

schoolyard freaks are freezing, down getting teased again. i'm looking back and down and watching it go by. down at the stockyards cattle screaming, the trains squeak by again. i can feel my breath and i'm so thankful i'm not one of them. the sound of the ground freezing is pounding once again. it comes with the wind that once wiped off our smiles. alarm clock bells are screaming out the same routine again. scrape open your eyes, rise and fucking shine, 7 a.m. sit down, dead weight, and wonder. unsure, unslept, uncovered. the new light of dawn discovered by ungrateful eyes, through 5-3 eyes. schoolyard freaks are freezing, pushed to the ground again. i'm looking up and west for black to fill the sky. the sound of bottles breaking, still breaking in my ears. they opened just in time to empty out and gouge away the years. sit down, dead weight, and wonder. unsure, unslept, uncovered. the new light of dawn discovered by ungrateful eyes, through 5-3 eyes. schoolyard freaks are bleeding, down getting kicked again. i can taste the earth and feel it in my eyes. the sound of cattle screaming, still screaming in my ears. they came in metal coffins, chained me up and hacked me off my years. sit down, dead weight, and wonder. unsure, unslept, uncovered. the new light of dawn discovered by ungrateful eyes, through 5-3 eyes.

Alkaline Trio - 97

I've got it now, a thorn in my side the size of a Cadillac.
Drive it through, cause backin' up now would be next to impossible.
I had it all.

Alkaline Trio - All On Black

I put it all on black, no color you're all dressed in
And a stab in the back left you bleeding on the floor
And I'm mourning the death, the recent passing of your insides

Alkaline Trio - Another Innocent Girl

He likes to act like he's all grown up
He wanted to grow up to be an actor
But he never told anybody

Alkaline Trio - Armageddon

I wrote the words to this song on the back of a photograph
Behind your back it goes
A little something like this is way to big to miss

Alkaline Trio - As You Were

stale as a 2 day half full beer. cigarette boats float around in here. a field in my gut lacking sunshine. put down like a teenagers first drink. i cough up compliments. i think you're better off walking away while you still can. she was passing through to climb a hill. as you slipped and slid on my gut spill. my better half was praying for you to fall. rotten like a 3 week half full glass of breast milk. drunken off my ass. i would give anything to erase the past nine years of my life. put down like a prostitute in court. all liberty soon to abort like my sanity, like thoughts of you. she was passing through to climb a hill. as you slipped and slid on my gut spill. my better half was praying for you to fall. praying for you to fall. so pitiful. praying for you to fall. i'm fuckin' pitiful. praying for you to fall. so pitiful. praying for you to fall. so fuckin' pitiful.

Alkaline Trio - Back To Hell

Like the pills in your hand, I'll never let you down
And like the bugs in your bed, under my skin now
Devouring all that's left of me

Alkaline Trio - Blackout

[Originally by The Damned]

Don't you ask me to come out

Alkaline Trio - Bleeder

you came to me like a dream, the kind that always leaves.
Just as the best part starts, it ends so abruptly.
And leaves you stunned and naked in your bedroom all alone.

Alkaline Trio - Bloodied Up

You don't say much of anything
When questioned of your whereabouts
And I just can't see through the evidence

Alkaline Trio - Blue Carolina

It's everything that I can do right now
To not think about you moving further off with every passing second
And every night of this lonely summertime
