Disarm
vs.
Tear



"Disarm"

Disarm you with a smile
And cut you like you want me to
Cut that little child
Inside of me and such a part of you
Ooh, the years burn
I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my choice
What's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you
Disarm you with a smile
And leave you like they left me here
To wither in denial
The bitterness of one who's left alone
Ooh, the years burn
Ooh, the years burn, burn, burn
I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my voice
What's a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you

"Tear"

The lights came on fast
Lost in motor crash
Gone in a flash unreal
But you knew all along
You laugh the light I sing the songs
To watch you numb
I saw you there
You were on your way
You held the rain
And for the first time heaven seemed insane
'Cause heaven is to blame
For taking you away
Do you know the way that I can?
Do you know the way that I can't lose?
Do you know the things that I can?
Do you know the things that I can't do?
Where is your heart?
Where is your heart gone to?
Tear me apart
Tear me apart from you
You laugh the light I cry the wound
In grey afternoons
I saw you there
You were on your way
You kissed me cold
And for the first time heaven seemed insane
For taking you away
'Cause heaven is to blame
For taking you away
The lights came to pass
Dead opera motor crash
Gone in a flash unreal
In nitrous overcast
Do you know the way that I can?
Do you know the way that I can't choose?
Do you know the things that I can?
Do you know the things that I can't lose?
Tear me apart
Tear me apart from you
Where is your heart?
Where has your heart run to?

disarm for god's sake!!!

[_________]

I'm going to say... Tear.

[afroguy10]

Disarm

[ShamanO]

as of right now I choose Disarm

[oryann]

this is probably the toughest one yet honestly.

I'm going to have to go with Tear just because it's the underdog.

Disarm is one of the most emotionally powerful songs ever written though. Tear is as well, just in a completely different light.

[Feriluce]

Disarm

[Carrie]

Disarm, for all the reasons above...

Tonight, Tonight
vs.
Blank Page



"Tonight, Tonight"

Time is never time at all
You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth
And our lives are forever changed
We will never be the same
The more you change the less you feel
Believe, believe in me, believe
That life can change, that you're not stuck in vain
We're not the same, we're different tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight
And you know you're never sure
But you're sure you could be right
If you held yourself up to the light
And the embers never fade in your city by the lake
The place where you were born
Believe, believe in me, believe
In the resolute urgency of now
And if you believe there's not a chance tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight
We'll crucify the insincere tonight
We'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight
We'll find a way to offer up the night tonight
The indescribable moments of your life tonight
The impossible is possible tonight
Believe in me as I believe in you, tonight

"Blank Page"

Blank page was all the rage
Never meant to say anything
In bed I was half dead
Tired of dreaming of rest
Got dressed, drove the state line
Looking for you at the five and dime
Stop sign told me stay at home
Told me you were not alone
Blank page was all the rage
Never meant to hurt anyone
In bed I was half dead
Tired of dreaming of rest
You haven't changed, you're still the same
May you rise as you fall
You were easy, you are forgotten
You are the ways of my mistakes
I catch the rainfall through the leaking roof
That you had left behind
You remind me of that leak in my soul
The rain falls, my friends call
Leaking rain on the phone
Take a day, plant some trees
May they shade you from me
May your children play beneath
Blank page was all the rage
never meant to say anything
in bed I was half dead
tired of dreaming of rest
Got dressed, drove the state line
Looking for you at the five and dime
But there I was picking pieces up
You are a ghost of my indecision
No more, little girl

[crepe]

Blank page

[LostSoul]

Blank Page. If only for this gem of a line:

"Take a day, plant some trees
May they shade you from me
May your children play beneath"

[keija]

Blank Page

[_________]

Really hard choice, but Blank Page.

[ShamanO]

neither. :shocked:/>

[oryann]

"But there I was picking pieces up
You are a ghost of my indecision
No more, little girl "

Holy hell this is such an utterly powerful and depressing song. This sums up the heartbreak of losing a loved one so well. Just the utter shock and sadness. And it's beautiful.

Tonight Tonight is full of gems and it has incredible lyrics. But Blank Page gets my vote for being so unique and genuinely dark.

Beautiful
vs.
Today



"Beautiful"

Beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sun
Wonderful, you're wonderful, as wonderful as they come
And I can't help but feel attached
To the feelings I can't even match
With my face pressed up to the glass, wanting you
Beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sky
Wonderful, it's wonderful, to know that you're just like I
And I'm sure you know me well, as I'm sure you don't
But you just can't tell
Who you love and who you won't
And I love you, as you love me
So let the clouds roll by your face
We'll let the world spin on to another place
We'll climb the tallest tree above it all
To look down on you and me and them
And I'm sure you know me well, as I'm sure you don't
But you just can't tell, who you'll love and who you won't
Don't let your life wrap up around you
Don't forget to call, whenever
I'll be here just waiting for you
I'll be under your stars forever
Neither here nor there just right beside you
I'll be under the stairs forever
Neither here nor there just right beside you

"Today"

Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't live for tomorrow,
Tomorrow's much too long
I'll burn my eyes out
Before I get out
I wanted more
Than life could ever grant me
Bored by the chore
Of saving face
Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long
I'll tear my heart out
Before I get out
Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings
Today is
Today is
Today is
The greatest day
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you
Today is the greatest
Today is the greatest day
Today is the greatest day
That I have ever really known

[oryann]

Beautiful for sure

Stand Inside Your Love
vs.
Spaceboy



"Stand Inside your Love"

You and me
Meant to be
Immutable
Impossible
It's destiny
Pure lunacy
Incalculable
Inseparable
And for the last time
You're everything that I want and asked for
You're all that I dream
Who wouldn't be the one you love
Who wouldn't stand inside your love
Protected and the lover of
A pure soul
And beautiful
You
Don't understand
Don't feel me now
I will breath
For the both of us
Travel the world
Traverse the skies
Your home is here
Within my heart
And for the first time
I feel as though I am reborn in my mind
Recast as child and mystic sage
Who wouldn't be the one you love
Who wouldn't stand inside your love
For the first time
I'm telling how much I need and bleed for
Your every move and waking sound in my time
I'll wrap my wrap my wire around your heart
And your mind
You're mine forever now
Who wouldn't be the one you love and live for
Who wouldn't stand inside your love and die for
Who wouldn't be the one you love

"Spaceboy"

Feel it
Break your bones
Mr. Jones
Taste me
As I bleed
Taste my need
And spaceboy I've missed you
Spinning round my head
And any way you choose me
You'll break instead
Watch me
Death defy
Defile my life
I don't need
I don't care
Please
I want to go home
I want to go home
I want to go home
I want to go home
'cause when a lover aches
That's when a lover breaks
I want to go home
I want to go home
And spaceboy they'll kill me
Before I'm dead and gone
And any way you choose me
It won't be wrong
And anyway you choose me
We won't belong
We won't belong
We won't belong
We won't belong
We won't belong
We won't belong
