She'd rather repair her face with the lights turned off.
The door wide open in an empty house.
The frozen minutes are melting slow
as she watches from the window.
The street light's flickering like a tongue that can't stop licking.
Like the cat that caught the cream,
she's never gonna be.
She's never gonna be quite satisfied.
Just like a hundred dollar bill
folded up and tearing at the crease.
There's not much left inside your chest,
but it's worth much more than what you see.
Every burden has a version in somebody else.
She smokes her smokes outside to avoid the fight.
She'd rather be enjoying the silent stillness of the suburbs.
After midnight, what's the point.
Don't try to hide, don't justify a thing.
She's so naive to think she'd be capable.
Like the cat that got the cream,
she's never gonna be quite satisfied.
Just like a hundred dollar bill
folded up and tearing at the crease.
There's not much left inside your chest,
but it's worth much more than what you see.
Just like a hundred dollar bill
folded up and tearing at the crease.
There's not much left inside your chest,
but it's worth much more than what you see.
And this will be the last time she hides her eyes behind her hair.
And this will be the last time, this will be the last time.
And this will be the last time she hides her eyes behind her hair.
And this will be the last time, this will be the last time.
Just like a hundred dollar bill
folded up and tearing at the crease.
There's not much left inside your chest,
but it's worth much more than what you see.
Just like a hundred dollar bill
folded up and tearing at the crease.
There's not much left inside your chest,
but it's worth much more than what you see.
And this will be the last time she hides her eyes behind her hair.
And this will be the last time, this will be the last time.
And this will be the last time she hides her eyes behind her hair.
And this will be the last time, this one last chance to say goodbye.
The lyrics EVERY BURDEN HAS A VERSION of THE ACADEMY IS... is also present in the album Fast times at barrington high (2008)
The Academy Is... sono stati un gruppo alternative rock/emo-pop statunitense originario di Barrington, Illinois, un sobborgo di Chicago. Fondati nel 2003, la band ha inizialmente utilizzato il nome "The Academy", ma nel 2004 hanno aggiunto il suffisso "Is...". per evitare controversie legali con altri gruppi musicali che utilizzavano lo stesso nome. La formazione originale comprendeva William Beckett (voce), Andy Mrotek (chitarra), Adam Siska (basso) e Mike Carden (batteria). 2005 ha visto la pubblicazione del loro album di debutto, "Almost Here", seguito da "Santi" nel 2007. Il gruppo è noto per il suo sound energico e melodico, influenzato dall'emo rock e dal pop punk. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "The Phrase That Pays", "Slow Down", e "Heartbeat". The Academy Is... hanno annunciato lo scioglimento nel 2011, ma si sono riuniti per esibirsi al Riot Fest di Chicago nel 2015.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
