"A Fine Mess" Lyrics Survivor - Round Seven 11/21/09

"A Fine Mess" Lyrics Survivor

This is the "A Fine Mess" Lyrics Survivor, one set of lyrics from each song on the album has been chosen and compiled to form the survivor. Please vote for your least favorite set of lyrics in each round, with no consideration of the song as a whole, just the individual set of lyrics here. Lyrics will be eliminated when they have the most votes after eight people have voted (or five for one lyric), or four days have past without any votes.

Round One

#01 - I’m in the corner of the street café
My heart is warmer since I heard from you today
Like a shallow creek, I am gleaming
No chance of keeping any secrets
Have I lost enough security yet?



#02 - So, you see
You’ve got me back again for more
And it seems your song is in my head
This is war
Mystery; how I could feel you breathe me
I was sure you would keep
Every promise; you would keep every word



#03 - Put me up on a pedestal
I’ve got nowhere to go but down
You expect the impossible
And it’s too much to carry around
Well, you tell me I’m beautiful
It feels empty and I don't know why
But it seems that you’re searching me
For something you’re not gonna find



#04 - I ain't got no sob story to write
But just like everyone else, I'm living this life
And you don't need to win me over
And there ain't no other side
To shelter me from
I'll belong where I decide



#05 - Most days I try my best to put on a brave face
But inside my bones are cold and my heart breaks
But all the while, something’s keeping me safe and alive



#06 - Every good girl’s got a real good reason
To believe in breaking all the rules sometimes
I’m that girl, baby you’re that reason
And your scheming has caused me to cross the line



#07 - I know you want me to see; don’t lie to me
So why you gotta go be so shy to me?
I ain’t buying the false anxiety, let your fortress fold
What is it gonna take to get you there?
If fear was money, you’d be a millionaire
All alone in a leather swivel chair
Counting stacks of gold



#08 - Your performance deserves an academy award
And it’s a double-edged-sword ‘cause I sure feel adored
Just between us, I’d rather see you slip up
Don’t you know, it’s those less than perfect words
I can’t get enough of



#09 - Somewhere, everybody starts there
I’m counting on a small prayer,
Lost in a nightmare
But I’m here, and suddenly it’s so clear
The struggle through the long years
It taught me to outrun my fears



#10 - We could still save these tattered pages
What do you say we start over, baby?
This is our chance, and you’re all I have
Don’t let me slip through your hands



#11 - I never meant most of those pretty words I said
But I wanted you to think I did
‘Cause telling you all this makes no difference; it’s useless
‘Cause those who get to know our hearts the most
They always seem to be the ones we’ll never hold



#12 - So the story goes on down the less-traveled road
It’s a variation on the one I was told
And although it’s not the same, it’s awful close
In an ordinary fairytale land
There’s a promise of a perfect happy end
And I imagine having just short of that
Is better than nothing



#13 - So, I’ll buy myself a cheap apartment
And I’ll buy my heart a secret compartment
And when your memory starts to surface
I’ll toast to mistakes made on purpose
Now, I’ll always miss you
And I’ll always wish you’d been mine


*Don't forget to vote for your least favorite lyrics*

I sent Mel a message on AIM last night even though she was offline, telling her she needed to come vote
