"The Music Or The Misery" - Fall Out Boy

I got my stitches stitched,
I got my fixes fixed,
In my aching head, I got my kisses slit.
Our gossip lips stuttered
Every word I said, I said,
I got your love letters,
Corrected the grammar and sent them back.
It's true romance is dead,
I shot it in the chest then in the head.

And if you wanna go down in history
Then I'm your prince,
Because they've got me in a bad way
I've never seen a heart I couldn't break.
It was never about the songs, it was competition.
Make the biggest scene, make the biggest...

Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.
Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.

I'm casually obsessed and I've forgiven death,
I am indifferent, yet (I am a total wreck)
I'm every cliche, but I simply do it best.

And if you wanna go down in history
Then I'm your prince,
Because they've got me in a bad way
I've never seen a heart I couldn't break.
It was never about the songs, it was competition,
Make the biggest scene, make the biggest...

Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.
Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.

(Go!)

I went to sleep a poet, and I woke up a fraud,
To calm your nerves
I'm feeling for my clothes in the dark.

Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.

Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.
Which came first, the music or the misery?
We're high-fashion, we're last chances.

Some random anonymous quotes I hijacked:

x My day is not complete until I scare the living hell out of a complete stranger.

x A stranger stabs you in the front. A boyfriend stabs you in the heart. a false friend stabs you in the back, but real friends don’t carry knives.

x Best friend is ten letters but so is lying bitch.

x Whoever said 'words cannot hurt me' never got hit in the head with a dictionary!

x If drama was beer, our whole school would be wasted.

x If life is like a box of chocolates, how come I always get the one laced with anthrax? -- AP author A Common Psychosis
