Blurred Vision lyrics - New Found Glory

 When we first met, I doubted myself

Could someone love to the level you do?

Or are you just excited for a fresh start?

Had reservations, I was dumb to assume

But it's all that I knew

It's all that I knew

Had blurred vision from all my head wounds

A victim of my own bitterness

A life I almost missed

I kick myself when I think of it

I'm giving up love

I'm giving up love

You're the one, love

You're the one, love

When I think back, I still get a feeling

I'm so ashamed of all the time that it took

For me to open my eyes

You brought me back when I was lost and confused

But it's all that I knew

It's all that I knew

Had blurred vision from all my head wounds

A victim of my own stubbornness

A life I almost missed

I curse myself when I think of it

I'm giving up love

I'm giving up love

You're the one, love

You're the one, love

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one, love

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one, love

I'm giving up love

I'm giving up love

There's no grass greener on the other side

I planted my roots deep

This is for life

If there comes a time where your leaves might die

I'll water them

I'll water them for you

I'll water them

I'm giving up love

I'm giving up love

You're the one, love

You're the one, love

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one, love

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one, love

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one, love

You're the one

You're the one, love

You're the one, love

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one, love

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one, love

I'm giving up love

I'm giving up love

Say It Don't Spray It lyrics - New Found Glory

 You're speaking the loudest

But you'll fall the hardest

'Cause you know you're just flesh and blood

Like all of us

You're speaking the loudest

You'll fall the hardest

'Cause you know what you're doing

When no one's looking

State your case

Your voice proud and bold

You lost soul

Dead to your own ways

On your pedestal

You pat yourself on your own back

You tie bricks to your legs

Who are you to make demands?

You can't even shake my hand

You're speaking the loudest

But you'll fall the hardest

'Cause you know you're just flesh and blood

Like all of us

You're speaking the loudest

You'll fall the hardest

'Cause you know what you're doing

When no one's looking

No one's safe

We all fall victim to our own ways

Why don't you start there?

At your age, I don't see bags yet under your eyes

You haven't reached the hardest part

Who are you to make demands?

You can't even shake my hand

You're speaking the loudest

But you'll fall the hardest

'Cause you know you're just flesh and blood

Like all of us

You're speaking the loudest

You'll fall the hardest

'Cause you know what you're doing

When no one's looking

Who are you to make demands?

You can't even shake my hand

You're speaking the loudest

You're speaking the loudest

You're preaching the loudest

But you'll fall the hardest

'Cause you know what you're doing

When no one's looking

When no one's looking

You're speaking the loudest

But you'll fall the hardest

You're speaking the loudest

But you'll fall the hardest

Barbed Wire lyrics - New Found Glory

 We made blood boil

Turned many eyes red

They felt the earth shake the second our lips connected

We built our own house

It got rat infested

Set it on fire 'cause everything's replaceable

But you and our memories

No one can touch them

Because we're barbed wire

Two strands twisted to one

Razor sharp

No one will ever touch us

Yeah, we're barbed wire

Two strands twisted to one

Razor sharp

No one will ever touch us

Tripped over ourselves

We slept in the gutter

We rolled around in broken glass

Self-inflicted, but we had each other

To stop the infection from spreading throughout all our veins

With you, through the hardest moments

No one can steal them

Because we're barbed wire

Two strands twisted to one

Razor sharp

No one will ever touch us

Yeah, we're barbed wire

Two strands twisted to one

Razor sharp

No one will ever touch us

Got enough in our lives

Got enough, got enough in our lives to worry about

To worry about

Been through enough in our lives

Been through enough, through enough in our lives

Don't worry about

Don't worry about everyone else

With you, through the hardest moments

No one can steal them

We're barbed wire

Two strands twisted to one

Razor sharp

No one will ever touch us

Yeah, we're barbed wire

Two strands twisted to one

Razor sharp

No one will ever touch us

No one will ever touch us

Got enough in our lives

Got enough, got enough in our lives to worry about

To worry about

No one will ever touch us

Short And Sweet lyrics - New Found Glory

 I'm gonna make it easy

Because I haven't had much time to think

And figure out clever words to sing

Accurate enough for you

I'm gonna dumb this down

'Cause it's not even about me

I'll shout it out even though they'll say they've heard this all before

I don't deserve someone as beautiful as you

I don't deserve much of anything

I don't deserve someone as beautiful as you

Forgiving me and giving me as much as you do

I'm gonna take it easy

And not get too many details

Some moments better kept for you and I

But I'll keep up the pace

Not trying to overcompensate with savvy lines

It's as real as it can get

It's as real as it can get

I don't deserve someone as beautiful as you

I don't deserve much of anything

I don't deserve someone as beautiful as you

Forgiving me and giving me as much as you do

I don't deserve someone as beautiful as you

I don't deserve much of anything

I don't deserve someone as beautiful as you

Forgiving me and giving me as much as you do

As much as you do

As much as you do

As much as you do

I don't deserve much of anything

The Cheapest Thrill lyrics - New Found Glory

 I was a teenager, delusional

With such an awkward build

That's why the first time she sent me a look

I swore she was my world

A week later, got cheated on

A pay-by-hour hotel

I guess she thought that's what my future's worth

A twenty dollar bill

I damn the world, shooting fire from my eyes

But behind them I was burning

Now I'm the lie

I'm the cheapest thrill

I'm the cheapest thrill

And everyone can tell that I'm the cheapest thrill

And I can barely stand myself

Clearly I was crazy

The first to give advice

Played it up like I was noble

But I was feeding my own pride

The lengths I'd go for a fix

Tacky charm got me far

Must have hurt so many feelings

While stabbing my own heart

I damn the world, shooting fire from my eyes

But behind them I was burning

Now I'm the lie

I'm the cheapest thrill

I'm the cheapest thrill

And everyone can tell that I'm the cheapest thrill

And I can barely stand myself

Suddenly I can see through my own eyes again

But I don't like what I'm feeling

You can't help your thoughts

But you can change your actions

If I don't I'll be consumed

Now I'm the cheapest thrill

I'm the cheapest thrill

And everyone can tell that I'm the cheapest thrill

And I can barely stand myself

I know now I'm not going back

I know my own worth now

(And I can barely stand myself)

I know now I'm not going back

I know my own worth now

(And I can barely stand myself)

I know now I'm not going back

I know my own worth now

(I'm the cheapest thrill)

I'm the cheapest thrill

Heaven Sent lyrics - New Found Glory

 The architecture in Barcelona

The night time view of Budapest

I've seen beauty in modern marvels

And your picture sits atop my list

They wanna take you away

They wanna take you, wanna take you away

They wanna take you, wanna take you away

They wanna take you, wanna take you away

From me

You must have fallen from the sky

You're an angel in disguise

I won't expose your wings

You're heaven sent

The vibrant leaves of Kyoto Temple

Rain falling down over the Kremlin

I've seen beauty in modern marvels

Even better when you stand in them

They wanna take you away

They wanna take you, wanna take you away

They wanna take you, wanna take you away

They wanna take you, wanna take you away

From me

You must have fallen from the sky

You're an angel in disguise

I won't expose your wings

You're heaven sent

You must have fallen from the sky

You're an angel in disguise

I won't expose your wings

Cause you're heaven sent

There are many mysteries

That remain unsolved

But I know the biggest will be

Why you chose me when

I'm a dead weight and everyone can see

You're keeping me afloat

They want you for their own

They want you for their own

They wanna take you, wanna take you away

They wanna take you, wanna take you away

They wanna take you, wanna take you away

They wanna take you, wanna take you away

From me

You must have fallen from the sky

You're an angel in disguise

I won't expose your wings

You're an angel in disguise

You're an angel in disguise

You're an angel in disguise

You're heaven sent

Vacation Day lyrics - New Found Glory

 I don't need to escape or fly to an island far away

I wanna stay at home, bath water's fine

Beach sand's too frustrating anyway

I'd rather wash the stresses off your back

And lay on our backs

And never leave again

For anywhere or anything

You're my vacation day, my little getaway

Where I can shutdown and put my insecurities behind me

You're my vacation day, my little getaway

When you're lying here beside me

Please don't make me go

I have no interest to travel to a little bungalow in a foreign town

I see the post cards still a beautiful view

But not like you, in the morning when the sun comes in our bedrooms

Through the cracks

And never leave again

For anywhere or anything

You're my vacation day, my little getaway

Where I can shutdown and put my insecurities behind me

You're my vacation day, my little getaway

When you're lying here beside me

When you're lying here beside me

Please don't make me go

It just seems a distraction

Just prolonging real connection

From what matters most

You and I evolving

Melting into one just talking

Bout what matters most

And never leave again

And never leave again

For anywhere or anything

You're my vacation day, my little getaway

Where I can shutdown and put my insecurities behind me

You're my vacation day, my little getaway

When you're lying here beside me

When you're lying here beside me

When you're lying here beside me

Please don't make me go

20 Years From Now lyrics - New Found Glory

 I'm starting to wonder about my luck

When it'll run out

Sooner or later

I'll be hit by a bus any day now

Are your eyes blocked by cataracts

You can't see how good you have it

You're taking a smile for granted

You're gonna wake up twenty years from now

Wishing you gave two shits about

All the lost moments you can never get back

You'd trade it for anything

Look back twenty years from now

Wondering why you cared about

Getting all the last words

Just to hear your own voice

But you weren't saying anything

When all goes your way

Your thoughts dissolve to nothing

We learn to walk from falling

So I'll kiss the curb

You're gonna wake up twenty years from now

Wishing you gave two shits about

All the lost moments you can never get back

You'd trade it for anything

Look back twenty years from now

Wondering why you cared about

Getting all the last words

Just to hear your own voice

But you weren't saying anything

No longer I worry about a future I can't figure out

(This days sufficient enough for me)

You're gonna wake up twenty years from now

Wishing you gave two shits about

All the lost moments you can never get back

You'd trade it for anything

Look back twenty years from now

Wondering why you cared about

Getting all the last words

Just to hear your own voice

But you weren't saying anything

Never get back, you'd trade it for anything

Connect The Dots lyrics - New Found Glory

 It was my persistence, wasn't it

A lack of trust you won't admit

I'll never settle now or before

I wrote a thousand songs because of it

Curse my choices, bite my lip

A hundred ripped up notes

I'm living with your ghost

This is a cold hard punch to the chest

This is the worst, the worst that it gets

Feels like a cheap shot right to the jaw

A perfect time for you to take what you came here for

I can't connect the dots

Won't connect them to you anymore

It was my lack of charm wasn't it

Or the guilt I wrap around my neck

I'm running out of ways to move on

It's my heart that burns of wickedness

I stole your youth and ran with it

I'm hearing on repeat, the sounds of defeat

A cold hard punch to the chest

This is the worst, the worst that it gets

Feels like a cheap shot right to the jaw

A perfect time for you to take what you came here for

I can't connect the dots

Won't connect them to you anymore

And this all would've worked

If I just would admit

Open my cuts deep enough

When the trust is broken

We go far enough

Build a life for us

You can't be, can't be over it

A cold hard punch to the chest

This is the worst, the worst that it gets

Feels like a cheap shot right to the jaw

A perfect time for you to take what you came here for

It was my persistence, wasn't it

A lack of trust you won't admit

I'll never settle now or before

It's my heart that burns of wickedness

I stole your youth and ran with it

It's time for you to take what you came here for

I can't connect the dots

Won't connect them to you

I can't connect the dots

Won't connect them to you anymore

First Bite lyrics - New Found Glory

 Whatever happened to forgive and forget?

I can admit that I'm a letdown, mostly out of step now

I can't move on until I fully admit

That the ship that I ran aground will never come back around

It's foolish for me to think it's for the best

With one hand on my mouth and the other ripping out my chest

We started over but you'll never forget

I was the first and I was sleeping in our…

Past tense, I can't think about it all night

You could eat me up with the taste of the first bite

Past tense, I can't think about it all night

I would rather wake up alone than be with you tonight

I'll never learn to shut my mouth and move on

I will admit to my mistakes now forget about common ground

I started over but I'll never forget

I was the first now I'm sleeping in her… not your…

Past tense, I can't think about it all night

You could eat me up with the taste of the first bite

Past tense, I can't think about it all night

I would rather wake up alone than be with you tonight

Be with you tonight

Past tense, I can't think about it all night

I would rather wake up alone than be with you tonight

Hold on, I regret

Folding in the heat of the moment

There's no way to go back

The knife you turned can't heal, you know that

Hold on, I regret

Folding in the heat of the moment

There's no way to go back

The knife you turned can't heal, you know that

It only hurts cause I let it,

You use the past as a weapon

And now I'm sleeping in our bed

Past tense, I can't think about it all night

You could eat me up with the taste of the first bite

Past tense, I can't think about it all night

I would rather wake up alone than be with you tonight

Be with you tonight

Past tense, I can't think about it all night

Heaven Isn't Too Far Away lyrics - New Found Glory

 (originally by Warrant)

Got a picture of your house

And you're standing by the door

It's black and white and faded

And it's looking pretty worn

See the factory that I worked

Silhouetted in the back

The memories are gray but man

They're really coming back

I don't need to be the king of the world

As long as I'm the hero of this little girl

Heaven isn't too far away

Closer to it every day

No matter what your friends might say

How I love the way you move

And the sparkle in your eyes

There's a color deep inside them

Like a blue suburban sky

When I come home late at night

And you're in bed asleep

I wrap my arms around you

So I can feel you breathe

I don't need to be a Superman

As long as you will always be my biggest fan

Heaven isn't too far away

Closer to it every day

No matter what your friends might say

We'll find a way

Silence

Now the lights are going out

Along the boulevard

The memories come rushing back

And it makes it pretty hard

I've got nowhere left to go

And no one really cares

I don't know what to do

But I'm never giving up on you

Heaven isn't too far away

Closer to it every day

No matter what your friends say

I know we're gonna find a way

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

I Want To Believe lyrics - New Found Glory

 Feels like I'm panicking, exploding in my head

I think it's time I gave it some attention

Silhouettes back at your expense

Forgetting all the soul in their expressions

Let's face it, you're a business man

Who has a way with his words

Put your money where your mouth is

Give me something that I can sing

It's in your eyes: you're lacking honesty

You traded in your heart and emotion

You barely break it open

I wanna believe but believing is not for me

So put your money where your mouth is

It's a revolving door, you're always wanting more

But there's no room for truth in their intentions

It should be something more

Than bright lights and crowds for you

Something more, something that I hold true

Don't break me until you finally have direction

Red Light Kisser lyrics - New Found Glory

 My red light kisser

Friday I'm going to pick her up, she said 7:30!

If I get out of work in time, that'll be alright! (that'll be alright!)

I'll wear the studded belt you like

And tee shirt from Taking Back Sunday

If you're late I can wait outside

I will wait forever!

My hands are sweating now

Turned off the heater

But I feel cool in my favorite tee shirt

She's my red light kisser, looking in the mirror

Stopping traffic, but it's alright (wa oh woah)

If she pulls me closer

I'm gonna pull over and just stare at her all night (oh oh oh oh)

So let me just pretend that you're all mine

Silverstein comes on at the right time - my red light kisser

It's your turn baby you pick a song

And we'll drive till 6 in the morning!

I'll hold your hand if that's alright

That'll be alright! (that'll be alright)

My heart (my heart) skips skips a beat

Just like that warped tour mix CD

Damn

The one that you made me

My hands are sweating now

I turned off the heater

But I feel cool in my favorite tee shirt

She's my red light kisser, looking in the mirror

Stopping traffic but it's alright (wa oh woah)

If she pulls me closer, I'm gonna pull over

And just stare at her all night (oh oh oh oh)

So let me just pretend that you're all mine

New Found Glory plays at the right time

My red light kisser

My heart is beating fast, the music's faded

But will the moment last (ugh) - it's complicated

At least just for tonight we'll be together

Can we stay at this red light forever
