Dashboard Confessional - I need a sure thing

Tekst :

You are a razor blade
You are precision-cut
You are a stare sharp as the tack in my eye?
At rest in my veins
[Your pulse in my neck?]
As sharp-edged as questions the time I have left
And so you are on my mind.

I need a burning stake
I need a piercing dart
I need something as hot as it is sharp
And I need to bleed
I need to burn
I need a sure thing
I need a sure thing
And you are a mystery to me

You are a paper bird
Folded and folded and creased
And bent and shaped from a five dollar bill
It s priceless to me
And never spent
It hangs from a ceiling fan over my bed
And so you are on my mind

I need a burning stake
I need a piercing dart
I need something as hot as it is sharp
And I need to bleed
I need to burn
I need a sure thing
And you are a mystery to me

I ll hang my hopes all at once on a rope
There s a possibility that this is happening to someone who s not me
I ll hold my head
Keep it still and pretend
That these spins and the webs
Are actually desirable

I need a burning stake
I need a piercing dart
I need something as hot as it is sharp
And I need to bleed I need to burn
I need a sure thing
And you are a mystery to me

  • Rapid hope loss
  • For Justin
  • Again i go unnoticed
  • Anyone, anyone
  • The places you have come to fear the most
  • So beautiful

    Theres a party house i know of and its far outside of town
    a den of vice and sickness, of infamy and renown
    Its a million dollar mansion with graffitti on the walls
    (this song is way too hard to decifer, and i dont want to get it wrong)

    Dragging me down

    I would search this world for you
    Even though you can’t imagine
    I want to take you to China
    I want to kiss you in Rome
    I use rocket ships and mine sweepers
    Transistor radio receivers
    I want to hold you want to hold...

    Road rules apply

    Well I m back from the road,
    And you re out on it,
    And I m tired of this distance,
    And I believe it s over,
    It s over
    I m waiting..

    And this phone tag game is endless,
    The novelty is wearing,
    I m hoping time will pass,

    Be my girl

    You know best nothing I won t do for you
    When you get down, just call me
    I ll come around, and make it ok, yeah, ooh ooh

    And there s just one thing you should know
    That you will never be alone
    If you need me, I ll be your friend
    Just say you ll...

    The final chapter

    During some abductions
    I m aware of them.
    Of they re taking spermsamples
    in many different ways.
    They ve done it in many different ways.
    With tubes, with a... like catheters.
    There s one way I not been able to deal with.
