Music Monday

It’s Monday, the start of another working week and to distract us from the humdrum of work I’m bringing you another song I love. This was started by the Drew over at The Tattooed Book Geek make sure you check him out.

1997 – 14yrs old and this song spoke to the broken, angry, angsty me. I hadn’t met metal yet, so this was about as hard as I got, but I fucking loved it then and I love this song just as much now.

Lyrics –
Leave me lying here
‘Cause I don’t want to go
Leave me lying here
‘Cause I don’t want to go
Leave me lying here
‘Cause I don’t want to go

Tell me, tell me, what you really want from me
You’ve got to let me know
I’m falling off and I need you terribly
One down and one to go

Volcano girls, we really can’t be beat
Warm us up and watch us blow
But now and then, we fail and we admit defeat
We’re falling off, we are watered down and fully grown

Leave me lying here
‘Cause I don’t want to go
Leave me lying here
‘Cause I don’t want to go

A million miles of running and I hit the wall
I bounce back and run some more
But this is it, I’m giving up, I’m calling quits
So get down and meet me on the floor

Way to go, way to flip off everyone
I steal your thunder, then I try to bolt
But I could stand a little pity now and then
I’m falling off, I am watered down and fully grown

Go
I don’t wanna go
I don’t wanna go
I don’t wanna go
I don’t wanna go

I told you ’bout the Seether before
You know the one that’s neither or nor
Well, here’s another clue if you please
The seether’s Louise

1, 2, 3, wow
Leave me lying here
‘Cause I don’t want to go
Leave me lying here
‘Cause I don’t want to go
Leave me lying here
‘Cause I don’t want to go

Leave me, leave me, leave me
Go
I don’t wanna go
I don’t wanna go
I don’t wanna go
I don’t wanna go
