I'm creeping my way out
so you can see me
I'm crawling my way around a thousand cities
You all stop and stare
I don't need your pity
I'm living my life in this hell.

Now I'm crawling away 'cause the stress has killed me
I feel like I fell from a ten story building
You best try and hide before the devil starts her bidding
I'm living my life in this hell.

I'm not one for the crowd to see.
It's just me...
it's just..

Just a little more,
C'mon and sastify me
Just a little more
C'mon let's terrify me
Just a little more
And I'll be done with it
Take my life and then I'll feel okay.

Coming out of my mouth from my tongue on the floor
I won't sing anymore
I'm losing control.
Cut it out of my mouth, put my tongue on a pole
Taking air from my lungs,
taking my heart from my soul.

I'm not one for the crowd to see.
It's just me...
it's just..

Just a little more,
C'mon and sastify me
Just a little more
C'mon let's terrify me
Just a little more
And I'll be done with it
Take my life and then I'll feel okay.

Okay.
I'll feel okay.
Okay.

Coming out of my mouth from my tongue on the floor
I won't sing anymore
I'm losing control.
Cut my tears of the sound
The erosion of my soul
I won't sing anymore.

I'm creeping my way out
so you can see me
I'm crawling my way around a thousand cities
You all stop and stare
I don't need your pity
I'm living my life in this hell.

Just a little more,
C'mon and sastify me
Just a little more
C'mon let's terrify me
Just a little more
And I'll be done with it
Take my life and then I'll feel okay.

Just a little more,
C'mon and sastify me
Just a little more
C'mon let's terrify me
Just a little more
And I'll be done with it
Take my life and then I'll feel okay.

    uhm, .. no fucking thank YOU, thrwmyhrtawy.

    this is an awesome song.. it goes to show that theyre not the same as every other post-hardcore band.. they have variety, which is a good thing..

    i reckon this could possibly be about ..

    how they constantly have to do the same shows over and over again, ''I'm creeping my way out so you can see me I'm crawling my way around a thousand cities''

    and how the living conditions are really terrible [constant bad food, bad sleeping patterns, hangovers,etc..], ''I'm living my life in this hell.

    Now I'm crawling away 'cause the stress has killed me I feel like I fell from a ten story building''

    ''cut it out of my mouth, put my tongue on a pole'' could refer to how he [Craig] is constantly, singing the same [awesome] things over and over again..

    ''Take the air from my lungs, take my heart from my soul.'', discusses how tiring performing is when constantly done day after day after day...

    anyway, thats my take on it..

    Alot of incorrect lyrics here. The top first set of lyrics are incorrect while the second are correct.

    The best way to before the devil starts her bidding You best try and hide before the devil starts her bidding

    Coming out of my mouth from my tongue on the floor Cut it out of my mouth, put my tongue on a pole

    Tears at the sound? ??? Cut my tears of the sound The erosion of my soul

    I have a weird feeling that it could be about being in the circus? Wouldn't it make sense, with the way the music sounds and what it's saying?

    "I'm crawling my way around a thousand cities." May be about a traveling circus.

    I honestly don't know why they would write a song about being in one, but ya never know.

    He has no legs, no wheels, no other mode of transportation other than himself and cant do handstands.

    No seriously, i think its about getting fuckin trashed on tour. If you listen to whats said at the end of the song, when the music cuts off. He's puking a little bit and he says "Oh My God dude, im bouta pass out, i want you to pass out." or somethin like that and the other guy says either "Understood" or "Then its good" then he says in response "I fuckin like it" i think thats what he says, and the other guy says" Its just not my, flavor."

    It gives me a vibe of a really crazy night where you just popped, ate, or smoked somethin crazy and your going nuts.

    Pretty fun song actually.

    this song sounds like its about touring and just partyin every night like when he says "I feel like I fell from a ten story building " could b like a hangover I just figured its about getting really fucked up and tourin around everywhere that's wat I get from the song

    I love this song. I don't really know what it means but I'm kinda leaning towards stev0xtrem0's idea. cuz at the end of the song when they're talking they're saying how the feel like they're gonna pass out or something. but who knows thats just what I think

    I think Escape The Fate sound perfectly fine the way they are. I liked them before Craig and I like them alot still with Craig.

    i think its about someone that isnt really accepted by society and is called a freik and shizz like that bye random reasons and has lots'o stress and thinks ppl are just watching him and poking him to see what the friek does nexa and hes fuking wishing he could die cuz hes being treated like shit in a hellhole

    Just a little more, C'mon and sastify me Just a little more C'mon let's terrify me Just a little more And I'll be done with it Take my life and then I'll feel okay.

    and the title says its just me kind of like saying im just me not a fukingmutated monkeydog in display on a desk

    but thats just my idea......

Step
Ministry
Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
