This is the starting of my greatest fear
I'm all packed up, getting out of here
But then you call and tell me not to go
that i'm the one who put the rock n roll
in your life

This is the starting of a brand new day
I never liked this town much anyway
I need this city like I need the rain
I know that somewhere there's a north bound train

Oh I'll make it without you...
make it without you
and though my body's laying here,
It's my mouth that must be lying now

Ahhh ahhhhhhh
Ahhh ahhhhhhh

This is the starting of my fall from grace
My self esteem, oh It's seen better days
But you know I'll never let this go to waste
I'll keep this memory on the map I trace...
back to home

My friends go out, but I've been staying in
I know I should but that's the way it's been
I never cared much for the taste of gin
I still don't now, oh, but it's been helpin

Oh I'll make it without you,
in my life
Oh I'll make it without you
and though my bodies laying here,
it's my mouth that must be lying now

    Hi all,

    I just got dumped by reading this song's lyrics on my boyfriend's blog.

    Nice. I could have had an email telling me so but that wouldn't be artistic enough I guess.

    And he never put any "rock n' roll" in my life, so it's not very accurate.

    If he wants his freedom, here it is. If he prefers staying at work all the time being used, it's his choice. I wonder if he'd keep his so-called fiends if he'd stopped covering their holidays all the time... Or paying them taxi rides...

    Anyway, I don't like this song. But it's one of the very few songs my ex likes whose lyrics make sense. Sad it says that.

    I might miss him a day or two. Then I'll be too busy sorting out my life to think about it.

    Oh yeah, I'll make it without you. I'll make it BIG without you. And then I'll look down on you.
