lyrics

RUMBLE

well you could have won a medal, for all the shit you pulled
raise a glass for all things you killed
stubborn as the weather, or the wicked or the dead
you left orphaned hearts, and tons of time to fill
so
why are you still talking, when I can see your heart's breaking
the toys in your attic, got stuck playing your heartstrings

every day I'm flirting with disaster,
every night my thoughts rumble in the dark
in life you'll find some are princes, some are bastards
I'm just talking trash, with ghosts out in the park

with these keys to dead cities, half asleep, but well fed
with homemade scars as maps to avoid the coming storm
“when moments stutter with beginnings, you leave a trail of bread”
the only words you said that ever kept me warm
so tell me
how are you still sleeping, with all the sound and the fury
I may not know what the day brings,
but let's hope it's not more of the same thing

every day I'm flirting with disaster,
every night my thoughts rumble in the dark
in life you'll find some are princes, some are bastards
I'm just talking trash, with ghosts out in the park

you said you can see the bird hung around my neck
but look on the bright side, it's what helps me to forget
takes me too long to explain, cause I always start to digress
I've waited a lifetime to get this weight up off my chest
yeah, yeah, yeah

why do you keep talking, when I can see your heart's breaking
I may not know what the day brings,
but let's hope it's not more of the same thing

every day I'm flirting with disaster,
every night my thoughts rumble in the dark
in life you'll find some are princes, some are bastards
I'm just getting high, with ghosts out in the park
with ghosts out in the park, with ghosts out in the park,
with ghosts out in the park

Better Living Through Chemistry image

Better Living Through Chemistry Ottawa, Ontario

Better Living Through Chemistry are a straight up rock band, with clever lyrics and catchy hooks.

They have a bad case of broken strings, cracked cymbals, and buzzing mics. Schooled in the alternative music scene of the 80s and 90s, this band wears their influences (The Replacements, Faith No More, R.E.M., & Soul Asylum, (among many others) on their collective sleeves...like badges of honour. ... more
