Send "Something In The Way" ringtones to your cell

Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I trapped
All become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
It's okay to eat fish
'Cause they don't have any feelings

Something in the way
mmm
something in the way, yeah
mmm
something in the way
mmm
something in the way, yeah
mmm
Something in the way
mmm
something in the way, yeah
mmm

Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I trapped have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
It's okay to eat fish
'Cause they don't have any feelings

Something in the way
mmm
Something in the way, yeah
mmm
Something in the way
mmm
Something in the way, yeah
mmm
Something in the way
mmm
Something in the way, yeah
mmm
Something in the way
mmm
Something in the way, yeah

10 posts	finally. finally i get to say goodbye. hate to be the bringer of bad news, but i'm going to kill myself today. i'm so relieved... all this will finally be over. this song is going to be part of my note along with the basics "i love my parents and friends and none of this is their fault. it has nothing to do with them." etc. i would also like my friends to tell emma that i love her and that's one of the reasons i have to do this. it is not her fault either, but completely my fault. got that down, max? good. i love you too max. you are one of my best friends. it sounds bad to say "one of" but i just can't leave out emily. you and her have been so helpful... i hate to do this to you but i'm not doing it for you. i'm doing it for myself. for a while i wondered how should i do this? well it seems the easiest way is with a knife to the wrist. i'm used to pain now though, so it shouldn't be hard. i've already found the vain too. i stayed up all night listening to nirvana. and i'm not even tired. this is the best day of my life. goodbye!

39 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Eggz if ur still alive, don't think suicide is an option...everyone feels that way sometimes but you just gotta hang in there...i know im really late on writing this but i just read that right now.. i hope you listen to what i said. please just think about it.

1 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal To quote EGGZ "for a while i wondered how should i do this? well it seems the easiest way is with a knife to the wrist. i'm used to pain now though, so it shouldn't be hard. i've already found the vain too. " Well...thinking the way you do you probably feel that there is nothing for you and you should just kill yourself, but i assure you, thats wrong, i bet you if kurt didnt kill himself you wouldnt be thinking about it right now, but to do this and tell everyone on the internet about it....is pretty fucking twisted. suicide is not what nirvana stood for, you are just a sad post-grunge lackey. CURSED to listen to nirvana all day and be sad because the man who wrote it is dead..which probably does make the songs seem more cryptic, mysterious...whatever, but still, think about it retard. nirvana did not write music in hopes of starting a trend, kurt cobain did not kill himself in hopes of starting a trend, but thats what happened, the trendy grunge thing caught on and so did suicide. you fuckers are all just nuts. on the other hand. yeah, nirvana is a great band. the best thing since the beatles.

8 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I really agree, this song is one of the best songs. It is so relaxing and, well, frankly I don't really know why it's one of my favorites, it just is. And thinking about that it's some serious meaning behind every Nirvana song is just so fucking amazing. I always get the same depressed feeling thinking about this genouis being dead, and most of all it hurts to think that he could still have been one of us if it wasn't for Courtney , That bitch. If you guys haven't read the book by Michael Azzerad "Who killed Kurt Cobain" you should really get you asses up from the chair your sitting in and do so, 'cause it's fucking brilliant. Another thing you should do is watch the film/documentary "Kurt & Courtney" . Rest in peace Kurt, we will always miss you and we will always love you Cheers

8 posts	KillerKurdt: btw, Kurt Cobain did so not commit suicide. I disagree if that is what you stand for, you must be fucking blind if that is what you believe...retard

1,367 posts	. . . a better book then 'who killed kurt cobain' is the book. . 'love and death'. . . it describes everything that happends alot better, and talks more about the incidents that happen during this time period. It also talks about his life, and friends, and what their view are about what happend.
