Song lyrics
This is where I say I've had enough
No one should ever feel the way that I feel now
A walking open wound, a trophy display of bruises
And I don't believe that I'm getting any better
Any better

Waiting here with hopes the phone will ring
And I'm thinking awful things
Pretty sure that few would notice
And this apartment is starving for an argument
Anything at all to break the silence

Wandering this house like I've never wanted out
And this is about as social as I get now
And I'm throwing away the letters that I am writing you
Cause they would never do, I would never do
Never

Waiting here with hopes the phone will ring
And I'm thinking awful things
Pretty sure that few would notice
And this apartment is starving for an argument
Anything at all to break the silence

So don't be a liar
Don't say that everything's working when everything's broken
And you smile like a saint but you curse like a sailor
And your eyes say the jokes on me

Well, I’m not laughing
You’re not leaving
Who do I think I am kidding
When I’m the only one locked in this cell

Waiting here with hopes the phone will ring
And I'm thinking awful things
Pretty sure that few would notice
And this apartment is starving for an argument
Anything at all to break the silence

So don't be a liar
Don't say that everything's working when everything's broken
And you smile like a saint, but you curse like a sailor
And your eyes say the jokes on me

well its not quite like all other emo. D/C is kind of like Emo Light. Cuz i mean look at Alkaline Trio. They're emo but they have a lot harder sound but yea D/C still has the yearning lyrics its just acoustic strumming instead of guitar noise.

there are lots of different styles of emo, just like there is different styles of rock. you can have acoustic emo, screamo, emocore, etc. but basically both alkaline trio and dc are emo.

I'm so emo it's sad. I'm sad. This music makes me even more sad. Why do I listen to it? It seems to tear the wound up more than heal it. AHHHHH It sucks being EMO! Someone kill me or something. "This girl..." you know that whole deal is bugging me. I'ma get some tattoos all along my arm like DC and write songs about my feelings and about PMS (they have a song about that I know it) and cry. wow looks like a poured too much of my emotions out (see this poetry thing is taking me over) I'll shut up. what a retard...
