A "new" pop-punk-emo that nonetheless seems to rehash sentiments, lyrics, and cliches from a million other older, better emo/
indie bands.
Deep if you've got an IQ of 50 or less or are a 13 year old
girl.
Original if all you listen to is Good
Charlotte.
Horrible if you have ears.

<Until the Day I
Die> (beginning)
As years go by
I race the
clock with you
But if you
die right now
You know that I'd
die to
I'd
die too
You remind me of the times
When I knew who I was
But still the second
hand will catch
us
Like it always does
We'll make the same mistakes
I'll take the fall for you
I hope you need this now
Cause I know I still do
Until the day I
die
I'll spill my heart for you
<Watermark> (middle)
I've got this store-bought way of saying I'm okay, and you've learned how to cry in total silence. We're talented and bright. We're
lonely and uptight. We've found some lovely ways to disappoint, but the airport's always almost empty this
time of the year, so let's go play on a baggage carousel. Set our watches forward like we're just arriving here from a past we left in a place we knew too well. (Hold on to the corners of today, and we'll fold it up to save until it's needed. Stand still. Let me
scrub that brackish line that you got when soemthing rose and then receeded.)
One of these is full of cliches and platitudes and sounds like it was written by a twelve-year old. The other has fairly original lyrics. *hint* the first one is SOTY the second one is the Weakerthans
