There's something I find so hilarious about how the dancer just bumps the mic stand and the whole thing just jams into his mouth XD oh man thank you Dana

on another note...

It's in the air you breathe and it's also in the water
It's something you can't see, you've been warned of by your mothers
You've had enough deceit, You know enough to see
Join the others
When you could hardly breathe, you were wondering why you bothered

And they gave us seven days to renounce our wicked ways
Too late to make amends because we both know how this ends

So do the right thing or do nothing
(What will you do when they come for you?)
Or just do what is easier
(What will you do when they come for you?)
That is what I read what I swear they said to me
Nine times out of ten they lied to me
And after all they had the gall to say
"Son, no one will save you now"

We want it, they got it
They claim we'll die without it
But something tells me they are wrong

So what will you do when they call your name and you're not ready to go?
Everyone will stare at you and tell you what you know
That you're in too deep and you can't quite keep your secrets, one and all
We might just make it after all, on our own
We might just make it after all

But we had one foot on the gas and one foot in the grave
Everyone was laughing when we said we had it made
-"One Foot On the Gas, One Foot In the Grave", Streetlight Manifesto

idk, I really like Streetlight Manifesto lyrics. haha

"so hey: i don't care if you go now or if you stay
oh your back is bleeding, you're bleeding on me
that'll be the day when the sun falls down
the angels may weep but i'll hear no sounds but hey"
-"That'll Be the Day", Streetlight Manifesto

"And when we fall we will fall together
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
And where we roam we will roam forever
No one will understand what we meant"
-"We Will Fall Together", Streetlight Manifesto

She said it hurts too much
I said it will never hurt enough
No one will ever see these cuts
No one will ever call this bluff
But that's just the way that it goes

And when he left us he said, "It's not so bad"
That motherfucker he took everything we had
And when I'm thinking back, I'm counting all the ways
Nobody helped us so we dreamt of better days
And we sang: "Yeah that's just the way that it goes"

Yeah, we used to be in love (my love!), but now we're just in like
And we broke all our promises and baby that ain't right
Because you don't know what it's like to lose it all
Take it back, take it back because you don't know what it's like
to be on the receiving end of it all

No! no! You were not on the receiving end of it all

You beg and plead, but no one here can save you
Why would they try when they can't quite save themselves?
-"The Receiving End of It All", Streetlight Manifesto

Yeah, and also when Tomas was doing a lil acoustic set during Bamboozle all alone he kept forgetting the lyrics to "That'll Be the Day" and it was SO CUTE like aw-ness. the end. bye.
