Lyrics for My Heart Is the Worst Kind of Weapon as interpreted by sweetness855

My Heart Is the Worst Kind of Weapon Lyrics
spent most of last night
dragging this lake
for the corpses of all my past mistakes
sell me out, the jokes on you
he is salt and you are the wound
empty another bottle
and let me tear you to pieces
this is me wishing you into the worst situations
i'm the kind of kid that can't let anything go
but you wouldn't know a good thing if it came up and slit your throat

whoa whoa oooh whoa whoa

your remorse hasn't fallen on deaf ears
rather ones that just don't care
cause i know
that you're in between arms somewhere
next to heartbeats where you shouldn't be asleep
now i'll teach you a lesson for keeping secrets from me

take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while
take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while

and did you hear the news
i could dissect you and gut you on this stage
not as elequent as i may have imagined
but it will get the job done
you're done

every line is plotted and designed
to leave you standing on your bedroom windows ledge
and everyone else that it hits
that it gets to
is nothing more than collateral damage

take your taste back
peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you should try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while
take your taste back peel back your skin
and try to forget how it feels inside
you try saying no once in a while
oh once in a while

Patrick's voice on the "ooh" gives me shivers.

I always saw it being about cheating, mostly because of this part,
"cause i know
that you're in between arms somewhere
next to heartbeats where you shouldn't be asleep
now i'll teach you a lesson for keeping secrets from me"

This song is too amazing, it pisses me off because nothing I've ever written will ever be that amazing.

This song means so much to me. I guess i cant really connect to the whole thing, but fall out boy means the world..well at least they do to me. This song is definately the best song on the My heart will always be the b-side to my tongue. Patrick's voice is amazing in that song. Sometimes i find that i like the softer stuff better than the dark and hardcore kind of music. But then again...when i'm feeling depressed i can really listen to the more dark stuff and feel just a little bit better. When i listen to this song, its like i drift off into another world and forget all my worries.

(Just so u know, the person who posted these lyrics, some of them are wrong)

oh FOB tara. when someone going missing or is assume dead the police will 'drag' all places like lakes and canals to make sure that the missings person hasn't been dumped in the water. im not really sure how they drag a lake/canal/river/any form of water but thats the term used.

i love this song it was my fave but ive over done it a tad and replaced it with 'chicargo is two years ago'!

i relate to it so much that listening to it makes me feel like im dying inside-its that powerful


Every line is plotted and designed to leave you
standing on your bedroom windows ledge and
everyone else that it hits that it gets to is
NOTHING MORE THAN COLLATEROL DAMAGE

umm...it ts definitely lake because you drag lakes for corpses...that are at the bottom...cause they died...

you know.

and also...this is WAY better as the original, acoustic version...

and so is the acoustic version of "nobody puts baby in the corner"

whoever said the acoustic versions aren't as good, obviously can't read the emotion that HAS to come out because its just you , an acoustic, and your lyrics.

Not a band, a studio, some producers. Just your heart.

I wish FOB released a cd with acoustic covers of all their songs, since everybody knows that ALL their songs start as acoustic songs anyways.

Anyone else hear the new version of this yet?

It's pretty sick.

I love how fob keep it real. Like they have all this success but still don't forget their roots. Like the drummer was on mtv the other day with a 7 angels 7 plagues hoodie. And there's definitely a breakdown at the end of the electric version of this song, just tacked on.

And pete mentioned his dogs circle pitting to hatebreed on the q and a of their site one time. it's just so cool how they are hardcore kids making pop punk for the masses, but still staying down with the scene. Even if I could take or leave their fuct era material, I still really dig their older stuff.

Eh, I'm just rambling now..

i thought the first line was: 'spent most of last night
dragging this leg over corpses of all my past mistakes'....

i wish i could write lyrics that were even half as good as FOB's

Love that line "you should try saying no once in a while". It makes me think of say, a girl who just goes through loads of guys and hooks up with randoms at parties and is a general all-round slut, and it's like telling her:

"hey, how bout not being a whore? How bout not being an evil manipulative bitch? It might do you good"

the dragging the lake thing is like just a general murder scene reference i guess.

places i've heard it are in the alk3 song, this song, and the atticus compilations.

"but you wouldn't know a good thing if it came up and slit your throat"

I can relate, he is saying, You keep looking for something good in your life, someone to love you and I'm right here, you don't have to look any further. And he resents that she can't see that good in him so he says do I have to kill you to make you realize how much i could be for you. Odd but just awesome.

i think this song is about a girl cheating on him and he is just completely tearing her apart, and he explaining it in this song by saying things, "you should try saying no once in awhile", "now i'll teach you a lesson from keeping secrets from me" hes saying how she cheated on him and its fucked up and hes gonna make her regret every second of it, what a song ladies and gentlemen.
