Mayday Parade Discussion

All of their lyrics are amazing, but my favorite would have to be:

"Give me any reason to believe 'cause I swear I'm done here, 'cause I've seen a bigger picture, and I'm looking for some answers, tell me that it's worth it 'cause I'm doing all I can to fight it, and I've never been this scared, and my moment's finally here, time's racing, please slow down, I've got to find my way out, I'm hopeless, but hoping, my lungs won't fail me now 'cause I'm Still Breathing."

-From "Still Breathing"

'well i'm thinking of the worst things
that i could say to you
but a promise doesn't mean a thing anymore
and this never will be right with me
and now you're trying to desperately
but i'm tongue tied and terrified of what i'll say

and then we both go down together
we may stay there forever
i'll just try to get up
and i'm sorry
this wasn't easy
when i asked you, believe me
you never let go
but i let go

i could only sing you sad songs
and you could sing along
and you could see the melody
that's been calling out your wrongs
and this never will be right with me
and now you're trying to desperately
but i'm tongue tied and terrified of what i'll say
but i never told you everything
i'm losing hope and fading dreams
and every single memory along the way'

- I'd hate to be you when people find out what this song is about. So much damn love for this particular song.

Also, lately the Amber Lynn lyrics have been stuck in my head,

She said, “boy, you better say you're sorry”
Don't think forgiveness will come easy
‘Cause it’s all that I have to give
And boy, I get the strangest pleasure
Just sitting on these city roof-tops
And see the lights that go on for miles'

(:

The lyrics to 'Oh well, oh well' are absolutely amazing. ♥

I love a lot of lyrics and every single song has at least one phrase that move me. See, Im telling its ONE OF my favourites, I was really shocked about Terrible Things, I mean, this song is too beautiful and tragic and you can't not love it!

But then, there's Your Song, Tree Cheers, Jamie All Over, Save Your Heart ...

*agrees with BrandentonFTW on the "kara" matter*

sunsets never were so bright, and the sky never so blue

jamie all over

@kara: Most of us actually do, and if you like them so much get off MAYDAYPARADE.com! God, why do people argue about stuff even the bands have gotten over. Go Radio and Mayday are friends now, so the war's over! And by the way, Jake wrote some pretty damn amazing lyrics too, if you look at Three Cheers For Five Years, you'll see what I mean.

Anyway, favorite lyric:
"The moral this time is girls make boys cry"
~When I Get Home You're So Dead

" .. I can call you baby doll all the time/ and you'd whisper in you're ears/you'd say 'I missed you boy/ So sing over again and over again.."

^ Your Song.
Love the solo afterwards.

Notice how all the songs that you all love were from Tales Told by Dead Friends and A Lesson in Romantics?! Yah, you should all thank Jason Lancaster for that.. I think it's sick that this band would continue to try and sing fan favorites wrote by Lancaster (which he did not get proper credit for) about his ex wife.. Wake up people, Mayday lost what made them great. Do yourself a favor, listen to Go Radio.. You can then hear Jason Lancaster sing the songs HE actually wrote. Some people have a little honor, wonder what the members of Mayday would think if Go Radio sang a few songs of 'theirs'.. HA.

Easy.
From You Be The Anchor-

And if you sing to me sweet until then
I may never sail Virginia again
And as this current moves slow for me
This much you must know
We'll meet again
And I'll, I'll have you know I'm scared to death

It's a long portion, but I love the whole thing loll

Jersey-
" I'll have you know I'm scared to death
that everything that you had said to me was just
a lie until you left
now I'm hoping just a little bit stronger
hold me up just a little bit longer
I'll be fine, i swear
I'm just gone beyond repair "

Gotta love it. It reminds me that theres other people facing the same battles as I am.

Get your hands, off of my star - Black Cat
Simples ;D

"And if you sing to me sweet until then,
I may never sail Virginia again
And as this current moves slow for me
This much you must know we'll meet again
And I'll have you know I'm scared to death"

absolutely beautiful. :)

well just about every lyric i can find meaning in but i would have to go with
"Please don't tell me that I'm dreaming when all I ever wanted was to dream another sunset with you"♥

I'll never go back to Georgia
Not at least till I have to

My girlfriend is moving to georgia in a couple of months. And these are the lyrics that come to mind when we talk about it.
