Song lyrics

Send "Points of Authority" ringtones to your cell

Forfeit the game, before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame, puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you can’t run the race
The pace is too fast, you just won’t last

You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life, my pride is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong
(You live what you learn)
You have to act like you’re someone
(You live what you learn)
You want someone to hurt like you
(You live what you learn)
You want to share what you’ve been through
(You live what you learn)

You love the things I say I’ll do
The way I’ll hurt myself again just to get back at you
You take away when I give in 
My life, my pride is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong
(You live what you learn)
You have to act like you’re someone
(You live what you learn)
You want someone to hurt like you
(You live what you learn)
You want to share what you’ve been through
(You live what you learn)

Forfeit the game, before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame, puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you can’t run the race
The pace is too fast, you just won’t last

Forfeit the game, before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame, puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you can’t run the race
The pace is too fast, you just won’t last

You like to think you’re never wrong
(You live what you learn)
You have to act like you’re someone
(You live what you learn)
You want someone to hurt like you
(You live what you learn)
You want to share what you’ve been through
(You live what you learn)

You like to think you’re never wrong
(Forfeit the game)
(You live what you learn)
You have to act like you’re someone
(Forfeit the game)
(You live what you learn)
You want someone to hurt like you
(Forfeit the game)
(You live what you learn)
You want to share what you’ve been through
(You live what you learn)

52 posts	Okay. Now tell me what's relly weard. In one song the words go in correctly, but in the other one it's how I said - not right. So? Who will explain? I ment about that I downloaded two songs from the same place. Now THAT'S weard. So? Who will try to explain THIS?

6 posts	Pts.Of.Athrty is the first version I lstened to and when I got Hybrid Theory I thought Huh? This it different. and then I figured it out. Anyways, my brother said, and I agree, that it would be kind of unsportsmanlike, but the beginning would be good to play at a football game or something.
