Get Scared : Cheap Tricks and Theatrics B-sides
Lyrics
1. DANCE WITH THE DEAD
Where the band never sleeps
The dead waltz through the streets
And I'm slowly falling
There's a voice in my head
Whispering softly it says
"Join me, dance, dance, dance with the dead!"
Where the band never sleeps
The dead waltz through the streets
And I'm slowly falling
There's a voice in my head
Whispering softly it says
"Join me, dance, dance, dance, dance with the dead!"
Whisper me a miracle
Or think of something logical
It's all too hard to deal
And if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
And if there's none, oh well.
Where the band never sleeps
The dead waltz through the streets
And I'm slowly falling
There's a voice in my head
Whispering softly it says
"Join me, dance, dance, dance, dance with the dead!"
You're screaming out a melody
You're ignorant but still you scream
You've given up on hell
And if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
And if there's none, oh well
Where the band never sleeps
The dead waltz through the streets
And I'm slowly falling
There's a voice in my head
Whispering softly it says
"Join me, dance, dance, dance with the dead!"
2. SO MUCH TO LOSE
Let's call to cut me up now
I'm at the bottom of a bottle
Searching for a love I cannot take
Tick tick, time to relieve
And maybe I'd just slow down
(slow down)
I've had enough to turn my inside out
I said I need to save myself
So tell me I'm okay
Before I hurt somebody
Hurt somebody oh whoaaah
Oh! I've got nothing to lose
I'm okay, but I need somebody
Need someone like you
Whoaaah oh!
To show me I've got so much to lose
My body's breaking down now
I've had enough, I'm giving up
And I'm checking out
Tick tick time to relieve
I said I need to save myself
So tell me I'm okay
Before I hurt somebody
Hurt somebody oh whoaaah
Oh! I've got nothing to lose
I'm okay, but I need somebody
Need someone like you
Whoaaah oh!
To show me I've got so much to lose
Yeah!
When it all comes crashing down
I sourt out my pieces
Chew me up and spit me out
'cause I know what I've become
So tell me I'm okay
Before I hurt somebody
Hurt somebody oh whoaaah
Oh! I've got nothing to lose
I'm okay, but I need somebody
Need someone like you
Whoaaah oh!
To show me I've got so much to lose
So tell me I'm okay
Before I hurt somebody
Hurt somebody oh whoaaah
Oh! I've got nothing to lose
Whoaaah oh
To show me I've got so much to lose.
3. NOT AT ALL
Maybe it takes some time for me to open up your eyes, but I don't have that long.
I doubt it takes a lot to be the everything you're not but trust me I'll be strong.
No more, give up, enough of this torment.
I've had enough of you
Do you know how I feel? No you don't, no not at all.
Don't act like you're here cause you're not, no not at all.
Why don't you stay, can't suck the life outta me?
There's no need to leave cause you're not here, not at all.
Sit back and take a breath, can't you see the noose around this neck?
I can't believe that I could last this long.
Another talk, get back, I'm about to have a heart attack.
I need to empty out these lungs.
No more, give up, enough of this torment.
I've had enough of you
Do you know how I feel? No you don't, no not at all.
Don't act like you're here cause you're not, no not at all.
Why don't you stay, can't suck the life outta me?
There's no need to leave cause you're not here, not at all.
Take time, waste time, my body starts to breakdown
Take time, waste time, my body starts to breakdown
Take time, waste time, my body starts to breakdown
Take time, waste time, my body starts to breakdown
No more, give up, enough of this torment.
I've had enough of you
Do you know how I feel? No you don't, no not at all.
Don't act like you're here cause you're not, no not at all.
Why don't you stay, can't suck the life outta me?
There's no need to leave cause you're not here, not at all.
So, so why don't you go, cause you're not here not at all.
Not here not at all, not here not at all.
4. MISFORTUNATE (LET'S TALK)
So let's talk
Sit down darling let's talk
Those green eyes could only get you so far
And I'm wrong
You know darling I'm wrong
My mind is weak and now it's wandered off
Hello Miss Unfortunate it seems you've lost it all
You've got the saddest eyes the world has ever known
Darling wipe those tears away
And let the liquor course through those veins
Ssshhh...
You stumble to the bed
Your eyes are soaking wet
You better wipe the makeup from the lovely dress
Dream soft, no nightmares
You tiptoed round everyone who cares
So let's talk
Come on darling, let's talk
Those green eyes could only get you so far
Yeah, yeah
Hello Mister Fortunate it seems you've got it all
You've got the best disguise the world has ever known
Drink up your nightmares
And let the liquor drown out your shame
So let's talk
Come on darling let's talk
Those green eyes could only get you so far
And I'm wrong
I know darling I'm wrong
My mind is weak and now it's wandered off
Yeah, yeah
Give up on love I'm trust-less
Give up on trust I'm loveless
And now it's time to let you go
Give up on love I'm trust-less
Give up on trust I'm loveless
And now it's time to let you go, yeah
So let's talk
Come on darling let's talk
Those green eyes could only get you so far
And I'm wrong
You know darling I'm wrong
My mind is weak and now it's wandered off
5. DEAD OR ALIVE
Under these covers I feel comfortable,
You call me crazy but I'm not alone.
It's the way you crawl, up and down these walls.
To sink your teeth into my bones.
You're creeping up my spine,
Can't take me dead or alive.
This time I'm gonna put up a fight.
Can't take me dead or alive
Dead or alive.
Under these walls I feel uncomfortable,
They creep, they crawl and I can hear it all.
When I close my eyes I start to realize
That there's something here that wants me gone.
You're creeping up my spine,
Can't take me dead or alive.
This time I'm gonna put up a fight.
Can't take me dead or alive.
Dead or alive
Dead or alive
You're creeping up my spine,
Can't take me dead or alive.
This time I'm gonna put up a fight.
Can't take me dead or alive.
Dead or alive
Dead or alive
This time I'm gonna put up a fight,
Can't take me dead or alive.
6. WE WON'T GIVE UP
So pack your bags
I think it’s time you leave
And I don’t have much to do with the way you’re thinking
There must be something wrong
But what’s that something wrong with me?
And I want to be told
Give up, give up
And let this go
You hold my heart
Tighter than a crutch
You’ve had enough
And it’s all too much for me
There must be something wrong
But what’s that something wrong with me?
And I want to be told
Give up, give up
And let this go
We’ve come too far
To let you down
We’ve come too far
To turn back now
And the stars are calling out for me
Just let me give you the best of me
And I can tell that this is overdrawn
Can’t you tell that this is all too hard for me?
There must be something wrong
But I can’t see what’s wrong with me
And I want to be told
Give up, give up
And let this go!
We’ve come too far
To let you down
We’ve come too far
To turn back now
And the stars are calling out for me
Just let me give you the best of me
We won’t, won’t
Let this go
We won’t, won’t
We won’t let this go
(Give up, give up and let this go)
(Give up, give up and let you go)
Whoa, Whoa
We won’t let this go
(Give up, give up and let this go)
(Give up, give up and let you go)
We’ve come too far
To let you down
We’ve come too far
To turn back now
And the stars are calling out for me
Just let me give you the best of me
We’ve come too far (Whoa...)
To let you down (We won't give up, give up and let this go)
We’ve come too far (Give up, give up and let you go)
To turn back now (Whoa...)
And the stars are calling out for me (We won't give up, give up and let this go)
Just let me give you the best of me (Give up, give up and let you go)
(We won't give up, give up and let this go, give up, give up and let you go)
I will let you go.
