Billy Talent – This Suffering

Like a dagger drawn across my chest
Shoots a bullet in russian roulette
Yeah you should never turn your back on me
Rescue me, rescue me
Would you stand by me and bury me?
Bury me, bury me
Why don’t we end this
Why I can’t pretend this time
I need a friend to find my broken mind,
Before it falls to pieces

Every time you try to leave me blind
You’ll never close my eyes
You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die

And when she spins the bottle round and round
Every time it leaves me kept and bound
Yes, you should never turn your back on me
Rescue me, rescue me
Would you stand by me and bury me?
Bury me
Why don’t we end this
Why I can’t pretend this time
I need a friend to find my broken mind,
Before it falls to pieces

And this lie I cant pretend
This time I need a friend to find my broken mind
Before it falls to pieces
Every time you try to leave me blind
You’ll never close my eyes
You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die

Misery won’t get the best of me
Cause now I’m calling, yes I’m calling on your bluff

Misery won’t get the best of me
Cause now I’m calling, yes I’m calling on your bluff

Don’t tell your lies I’ve had enough

Why don’t we end this
Why I can’t pretend this time
I need a friend to find my broken mind,
Before it falls to pieces
Every time you try to leave me blind
You’ll never close my eyes
You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die

And this lie I cant pretend
This time I need a friend to find my broken mind
Before it falls to pieces

Every time you try to leave me blind
You’ll never close my eyes
You’ll never close my eyes and watch me die


Billy Talent – Red Flag

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The Red Flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The Red Flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Well I’ve never seen us act like this
Our only hope is the minds of kids
And they’ll show us a thing or two

Our only weapons are the guns of youth
It’s only time before they tighten the noose
And then the hunt will be on for you

The Red Flag waving never meant the same
No… The Red Flag waving never meant the same

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The Red Flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The Red Flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Like the smallest bee packs a sting
Like a pawn checkmates a King
We’ll attack at the crack of dawn

Build a ladder if there’s a wall
Don’t be afraid to slip and fall
Speak for yourself or they’ll speak for you

The Red Flag waving never meant the same
No… The Red Flag waving never meant the same

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The Red Flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The Red Flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Like a fire
Don’t need water
Like a jury
Needs a liar
Like a riot
Don’t need order
Like a madman
Needs a martyr

We don’t need them [x8]

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The Red Flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The Red Flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday

Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
The Red Flag waving never meant the same
The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
When they live in the sins of yesterday

(we don’t need them) Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
(we don’t need them) The Red Flag waving never meant the same
(we don’t need them) The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
(we don’t need them) When they live in the sins of yesterday

(we don’t need them) Cast off the crutch that kills the pain
(we don’t need them) The Red Flag waving never meant the same
(we don’t need them) The kids of tomorrow don’t need today
(we don’t need them) When they live in the sins of yesterday

We don’t need them!!


Billy Talent – Devil In A Midnight Mass

A devil in a midnight mass,
He prayed behind stained glass
A memory of Sunday class
Resurrected from the past

Hold your breath and count to four
Pinky swears don’t work no more
Footsteps down the hallway floor
Getting closer to my door
I was alive but now I’m singing

[Chorus:]
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night for the rest of my life
Violent knight at the edge of your knife
Guilty, guilty… won’t make it right
Silent night for the rest of my life
Silent night at the edge of your knife
(You’re guilty!)

A devil in a midnight mass,
the temple he just passed.
Attempt a dozen hits,
Can never wash away his sins

I was told that the world wouldn’t believe me.
In the cold, sinners world, tried to see them.

Mother nature, Sister fear.
A place called Hell is close to here.
Put my trust in God that day,
not the man that taught his way.
I was alive, but now I’m singin’

[Chorus]

[Whispered]
Whisper, whisper, don’t make a sound.
Your bed is made and it’s in the ground [x2]

[Screamed]
Whisper, whisper, don’t make a sound.
Your bed is made and it’s in the ground [x4]
