I thought this one was pretty hard. Much of this does not make any sense, but since the song is called Pyro, i thought the parts about the matches and cornerstove made sense ...it's all I could come up with - read along while you listen and tell me what do you think? .... I tried to get this from the You Tube video from Cincinatti, but when I listened to another video, it wasn't close, so I have no idea ... See the book of matches, but girl you're standing in the way (rain) Burning down the mountain, (it's not buring, but I don't know what it is) and a hole on the fire began Bury all the pictures and tell the kids that I'm ok. If I'm not forgotten remember me for a day Iiiii... I don't want to cover me your cornerstove (  ) Iiiiiii All the love inside me (or all the blood inside me.. all up love inside me, all above inside me .. it looksl ike it starts a b and ends with a v ... ) is slowly seeping from the bone Everything I cherish is slowing dying or it's gone (I only knew that one because of the article ) The pretty shakin' babies and drunkards seems to all agree If i show the stars it's gonna be a sight to see I iiiii.. I don't want to cover me your cornerstove Iiiiii... I don't want the drama, but you're holding on I iii.. I don't want to cover me your cornerstove Iiiii She wants to Roam ... Can U feel it? Watch your own ... Can U feel it? Watch your own... Can U feel it? Watch your own... Can U feel it? iiiii.. I don't want to cover me your cornerstove Iiiiii... I don't want the drama, but you're holding on I iii.. I don't want to cover me your cornerstove Iiiii In the second verse on the first line kinda sounds like he says .. "like a blanket inside of me its slowly seeping from the bone" .. i dunno .. ha! .. one never does tho when it comes ta caleb!  |

The End
Out on the streetlights
Laughing at the grave
He swears he's gonna give it up
It's never gonna be enough
I just wanna be there
When you're all alone
Thinking about a better day
When you had it in your bones
This could be the end x4
I see you in the evening
Sitting on your throne
And playing with the fireballs
And post it up against a wall
I just wanna hold you
Take you by your hand
And tell you that you're good enough
And tell you that it's gonna be tough
This could be the end x4
Cause I ain't got a home
Running from the streelights
Shining on a grave
Once you had a good ??
Never gonna feel her
I wanna be the one who
Gives him all the world
And gives him all the ??
Just a little taste of it
This could be the end x4
Cause I ain't got a home
And I'll feel all alone
No I ain't got a home
I'll feel all alone
Said I ain't got a home
I'll forever roam
No I ain't got a home
I'll forever room
I ain't got a home
Beach Side
He's got an attitude
Thinking that he's always right
Blowing smoke rings
Making me wanna fight
I never look back
At all the things I ever done
And then I look up
Seeing that he's on the run x2
It's a big thing
Everything the heart desires
And now I have to
Try to outdo the fight
I caught a big break
Waiting for you in the road
I saw you laughing
Even though you know it's old x3
Even when you're on the run x4
Even though you know it's old
Mi Amigo
I've got a friend
Shows me all the good times
Tells me all the better
Chews me up and spits me out
And then walks my ass home
Sings a song, when I'm gone, gone, gone
That little friend
Shoots me up and down town
When I can't get me drunk enough
To pick me out the pieces
Of a place I call home
Just sing a song, till I'm gone, gone, gone
I've got a friend
Helps me to get up again
Showers me and boozes
Tells me i've got a big old dick
And she walks my ass home
Just sing a song, till I'm gone, gone, gone

Yes he does, lol.
The first line of Beach Side is, "He's got an attitude" I believe.

No Money
Won't you give me something I need
Wont you get me off of the street
Don't wet my tongue
Or spit me up and break me a fever
Give me something I can believe in
Give me something to walk me away
I'm wasting time and all along a waste of a living
A waste of a living
Can't you see me walking along
I've been down to the horns and back and im way to tired
Of blowin out the burning candle
I've got no money but I want you so x2
I've got so much I cannot handle
I cannot handle x2
And all this pissing around
I'm cutting loose of this fucking town
I ain't coming back
I got my ticket onto the next one
I got no money but I want you so x2
Birthday
It's in the way she often calls me out
It's in the cut of her pretty gown
Your come on legs and your pantyhoes
You look so precious with your bloody nose
We're gonna come together
We're gonna celebrate
We're gonna gather round like it's your birthday
I don't wanna know just what I'm gonna do
I don't care where you're going
I'm coming along with you
Walking her home with the grassy feel
Falling and laughing at the drinks we spilled
Just one of those nights that I had to share
She's in a death without a care
We're gonna come together
We're gonna celebrate
We're gonna gather round like it's your birthday
I don't wanna know just what I'm gonna do
I don't care where you're going
I'm coming along with you
We're gonna come together
We're gonna celebrate
We're gonna gather round like it's your birthday
I don't wanna know just what I'm gonna do
I don't care where you're going
I'm coming along with you
The Face
Beneath the dancehall lights
You seem a girl so sound
Lights up the ground
If you give up New York
I'll give you Tennessee
The only place to be
The cowboys burning eyes don't like the sight of me
Just straight enough to breed
I like your point of view so don't you shy away
Ride out the wave x3
Ride out the wave x2
You had me holding on another time and place
Ride out the wave
Bury yourself await the one and only face
Ride out the wave x3

Pyro
Single book of matches gonna burn what's standin' in the way
Burnin' down the mountain and we're callin' on the fire brigade
Bury out the pictures and tell the kids that I'm okay
If I'm forgotten, you'll remember me for the day
I won't ever be your cornerstone
I....
All the black inside me is slowly seepin' from the bone
Everything I cherish is slowly dyin' or it's gone
Little shakin' babies and drunkards seem to all agree
Once the show gets started it's bound to be a site to see
I won't ever be your cornerstone
I don't wanna be here holdin' on
I won't ever be your cornerstone
I...
Watch your own...can you feel it? (x4)
I won't ever be your cornerstone
I don't be here holdin' on
I won't ever be your cornerstone
I...

What made me think the other was the 'Just so you know I was thinking of you' bit that follows - bloody tooth didn't seem to fit. But I think you're right now that I've paid more attention to the context. |

Pickup Truck
Walk you home to the scene
Where you're living round
And I know this place
Pour yourself on me
And you know I'm the one
That you won't forget
And in your dim old eyes??
I see somethings right
And I see you're weak
When he comes around
I see you're fixing to shine
And my face won't speak
Hate to be so emotional
I didn't aim to get physical
But when he pulled in and revved it up
I said 'you call that a pickup truck?'
And in the moonlight I fought him down
Kicking screaming and rolling round
A little piece of a bloody tooth
Just so you know I was thinking of you
Just so you know
Trembling misery and as cold as a hole
I hug your bones and skin
The crackling woods gone white
And my eyes swelled up now
I can't see the light
Hate to be so emotional
I didn't aim to get physical
But when he pulled in and revved it up
I said 'you call that a pickup truck?'
And in the moonlight I fought him down
Kicking screaming and rolling round
A little piece of a bloody tooth
Just so you know I was thinking of you
Just so you know x3
Hate to be so emotional
I didn't aim to get physical
But when he pulled in and revved it up
I said 'you call that a pickup truck?'
And in the moonlight I fought him down
Kicking screaming and rolling round
A little piece of a bloody tooth
Just so you know I was thinking of you x2
Just so you know x2

I think the chorus of PICKUP TRUCK is:
Hate to be so emotional
I didn't mean to get physical
But when he pulled in and revved it up
I said "You call that a pickup truck?"
And in the moonlight I brought him down
Oh kickin', screamin' and rollin' round
A little piece of a bloody tooth
Just so you know I was thinkin'-a you

ej is correct! i listened to pick up truck on repeat in my car for four hours today on the way back to nashville trying to figure out all the lyrics! the song made way more sense when i figured out the lyrics!

In Pyro, I always thought it said 'where to run' there at the end.  maybe I'm just delusional. but I'm definitely a big fan of Caleb's lyrics (I'm assuming they're his) on CAS. |

I've decided now that where I previously said:
And in the moonlight I BROUGHT him down
is actually:
And in the moonlight I FOUGHT him down

The Face... The cowboys burning eyes don't like the sight of me Just straight enough to breath I like your point of view so don't you shy away Ride out the wave x3 I think it might be "Just straight enough to breed" - possibly a reference to feeling a bit metrosexual in his fancy new clothes (to the disdain of the 'cowboys' back home)? Just a theory... |
