Astoria Lyrics - Marianas Trench

Astoria, I'm warning ya, not ready yet, not for you

Don't wanna know my darkest lows

My blackest pitch, murder of crows

Feels far from home, close to the vale

Goodbye mother's fairy-tale

Never After will suffice when star-cross'd lovers take their life

Now we begin a harlequin, kaleidoscope in spite of when

Top of the world to lowest worth, from blackest pearl to slower birth

Don't remind me what the price is when left to my own devices

'Cause I'll find out in all due time what happens to never say die

Oh yeah

I'll see whatever doesn't make me stronger kills me

But it's gonna to be a long year till the hospital can find hope in me

(Tell me I survive)

Do I survive you, Astoria?

(Tell me I survive)

Do I survive you, Astoria?

You know everything happens, it happens in threes

A fevered blur, through names obscured, and speeches slurred

What's another bridge burned?

I'm on my own, you came alone

All dressed up in bad news

(I know you can hurt too)

This would be the wrong move

(Maybe we should leave soon)

You can lay with me while you think of him

Drowning sorrows deep in each other's skin

I touch your face while I think of her

I won't raise my lips to the way we were

Bite my neck till you say his name

I will scratch your back to forget her face

Our regret tastes sweet through a soft liqueur

We can raise our lips to the way we were

On a good day I'm the bad news for the wrong girl with the right wounds

On a good day I'm the bad news for the wrong girl with the right wounds

Hey, ever just say fuck it?

Maybe I'll drink this all away in buckets

Oh hey, might as well say fuck it

I wanna hurt myself until I love it

I should've known you're not alone when you take somebody home

And the little death are a little less, even if just for a moment

Hey, let's all say fuck it

(On a good day I'm the bad news for the wrong girl with the right wounds)

I'm gonna make my mother so proud of it

(On a good day I'm the bad news for the wrong girl with the right wounds)

Yeah

(Hope fades away in Astoria)

I'll see whatever doesn't make me stronger kills me

But it's going to be a long year till the hospital might find hope in me

(Astoria)

Astoria

(Astoria)

Let the melody save me, Astoria

Let the melody save me, Astoria

The quid pro quos that we'll compose from esoteric to common prose

Astoria.

POP 101 (Barely Feat. Anami Vice) Lyrics - Marianas Trench

Pop music 101

Some simple instructions

For a good first impression

Now let's start with verse one

A minor chord, tensions grow

Fade in the bass like so

Now with momentum go "stop"

And bring the beat back

It's called 4 on the floor

A beat you can't ignore

I bring sexy back once more (yeah)

They love that (yeah) for sure

The chords are 1-4-6-4

Now I'm talking familiar

Harmony in thirds not fourths

Will take you into the pre-chorus

Real quick now, don't you bore us

Hurry up and get to the chorus

Dumbed down, they won't ignore us

Get to the floor

And hear some words you should know

Like "DJ never let me go"

Or "Shots and then we'll lose control"

Or "baby, baby, baby, baby, baby"

How about one more last word like

"Hey girl, we've only got tonight"

Some things just go together like

Higher, desire, and fire

Higher, desire, and fire

Guitar and strings like these

To sound like Black Eyed Peas

This one's a filter sweep

This one's Imogen Heap

Hipster music on cassette

But you probably don't know them yet

808's... (hey, ho) Hell yeah

Heartfelt pub anthems from Mumford and his sons

Gang vocals here we come

Been thinking, "I will always wait."

(Wobble Bass)

Real quick now, don't you bore us

Hurry up and get to the chorus

Dumbed down, they won't ignore us

(Tape slow down

Take 'em to the chorus)

Whoa

And hear some words you should know

Like "DJ never let me go"

Or "Shots and then we'll lose control"

Or "baby, baby, baby, baby, baby"

How about one more last word like

"Hey girl, we've only got tonight"

Some things just go together like

Higher, desire, and fire

Higher, desire, and fire

(I can pitch shift my voice if I want [3x]

I can make my voice low)

The bridge is

The part when

You bring in

A rapper friend ('Sup?)

You simplify, and slow the beat

Abbreviate "feature" to "feat"

[Anami Vice:]

Quick now, fill in the gaps (Okay!)

Water it down, eliminate that which you really would rap and

Give 'em a classic like

Get-get-get (cash, money) to the floor

And hear some words you should know

Like "DJ never let me go"

Or "Shots and then we'll lose control"

Or "baby, baby, baby, baby, baby"

How about one more last word like

"Hey girl, we've only got tonight"

Some things just go together like

Higher, desire, and fire

Higher, desire, and fire

(Dance)

One Love Lyrics - Marianas Trench

I wake up tonight, feeling paper thin and I'm paper white

You say, "Just come back to bed"

Voice sounds strange, but I soon forget

And your sad blue eyes, like mine

Full of pity now, but I don't know why

The light dims without regret

'Til now you're nothing more than a silhouette

But just hold quick, you're fading right

In a cold trick of the light

I'm just so sick, I thought you might be here

But you di-disappear

Now I wake up and I forget that you were gone

A phantom limb is all that I am hanging on

So don't stop, no stopping it yet

What if the one true love's the only one that you get?

And you've been wishing but you don't know how to stay

And I've been broken but I'm better every day

So don't stop, no stoppin' it yet

What if the one true love's the only one that you get?

One love (one love), one love you get

One love (one love), one love you get

One love (one love), one love you get

One love (one love), one love you get

Lost and gone so fast

You get me every time

But I live with that

I might do this to myself

Only made it worse but I just can't help

You know I get so attached

Listen everyday 'til the dark is back

Now I pine for phantom pain

It's the only time that I see your face

So just hold quick you're fading right

In a cold trick of the light

I'm just so sick, I thought you might be here

But you di-disappear

Now I wake up and I forget that you were gone

A phantom limb is all that I am hanging on

So don't stop, no stopping yet

What if the one true love's the only one that you get?

And you've been wishing but you don't know how to stay

And I've been broken but I'm better every day

So don't stop, no stoppin' it yet

What if the one true love's the only one that you get?

One love, one love, one love you get

One love, one love, one love you get

One love, one love, one love you get

One love, one love, one love you get

What if you still feel me too, still?

What if there was still a way of taking care of this?

What if I wake up tonight and you are real?

What if we could find a way to try to heal?

What if there's no stoppin' us yet?

What if the one true love's the only one that you get?

What if there was still a reason not to go?

What if there was still a little bit of hope?

So don't stop, no stoppin it yet

What if the one true love's the only one that you get? (Love you get)

One love, one love you get

One love, one love you get

One love, (one love) one love you get (One love)

One love, (one love) one love you get

One love, one love you get

One love, one love you get

One love, (One love) one love you get (one love)

One love, (one love) one love you get.
