The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot Lyrics
Artist(Band):Brand New
Review The Song (77)Print the Lyrics
If it makes you less sad
I will die by your hand
I hope you find out what you want
I already know what I am
And if it makes you less sad
We'll start talking again
And you can tell me how vile
I already know that I am

I'll grow old
And start acting my age
I'll be a brand new day
In a life that you hate
A crown of gold
A heart that's harder than stone
And it hurts a whole lot
But it's missed when it's gone

Call me a safe bet
I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad you that can forgive
Only hoping as time goes
You can forget

If it makes you less sad
I'll move out of the state
You can keep to yourself
I'll keep out of your way
And if it makes you less sad
I'll take your pictures all down
Every picture you paint
I will paint myself out
It's as cold as a tomb
And it's dark in your room
When I sneak to your bed
To pour salt in your wounds
So call it quits
Or get a grip
Say you wanted a solution
You just wanted to be missed

Call me a safe bet
I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive
I'm only hoping as time goes
You can forget
So you can forget
You can forget

You are calm and reposed
Let your beauty unfold
Pale white like the skin
Stretched over your bones
Spring keeps you ever close
You are second hand smoke
You are so fragile and thin
Standing trial for your sins
Holding onto yourself the best you can
You are the smell before the rain
You are the blood in my veins

Call me a safe bet
I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive
I'm only hoping as time goes
You can forget

Review about The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot

music saves | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/21/09

i think the most heart breaking ending to a relationship is when the feeling isnt mutual, in this song, he has to make the hard decision to end the relationship, and it hurt the girl alot, but rather than hold on to love that has faded, he had to end things, and he dosent like himself for it, and tries to make it as easy as possible on the girl, letting her make the desicions, most of them except the fact that hes made up his mind and its over, she can talk to him if she wants, she can tell him to leave and he will, hes trying to spare her more torment, "if it makes you less sad i will die by your hand", it would never be on her terms but, it will soften the blow, he hates himself for having to do it, "tell me how vile i already know that i am" also she might have been more insecure in herself than him, i went through something similar, thats why i was attacted to the song i think, i have always been a little insecure, and my girlfrind was very confident and strong, it must have been hard for her to have to hurt someone so sensitive, like it must have been hard for the boy in the song. She still loving him forgave him, not being bitter and understanding that sometimes you have to let go of someone is very hard, but honestly for the best, in time he wants her to forget, may be abit of a hope to far but it shows how desperatly sorry he is. x



just some babble. | Reviewer: katie | 11/4/09

This song is so self descriptive. Even with out reading the lyrics, it's almost hard not to dive into the emotion of the piece. It's such a torn heart that seems to come through. It's that feeling of knowing how much you care for someone, and how badly you would love to fix their life, and to make them happy, yet you can only find yourself hurting them more.

"If it makes you less sad
I'll move out of the state
You can keep to yourself
I'll keep out of your way"

Clearly this is stating what I mentioned above. Just that even though you don't want to leave or be away from someone, you know that you are going to have to come up with the strength to leave them because it is for the better. That in itself can hold so much more meaning than holding on to a relationship that is hopeless. This song was recently 'dedicated' to me by this kid. I chose to let him keep pouring salt in my wounds.' Its a sucky situation on both ends when you have someone that you care so deeply about, yet are rendered helpless to the feelings of misery that come along with the relationship.



Learn a little bit more about the song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/3/09

For all you dumbasses who think that this is about Lacey and an ex, you're wrong. Lacey didn't write the lyrics. He and Brian Lane, did indeed write the music to it, and bought the lyrics from a man that attended Cornell with them named Eric Bolin. It's about a girl that Bolin was dating, but wanted to break up with. He snuck to her house one night to break up with her, hence the line "as I sneak to your bed to pour salt in your wounds". She told him that he was only making it worse by coming over and breaking up with her. That he just needed to leave. Not ever bother her again. There. Now you can have a little taste of the background of the lyrics. Talk about that.



great lyrics | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/22/09

this reminds me so much of a girl i dated. always on n off, it expresses exactly how i felt "if it makes you less sad we'll start talking again", and i felt like she always knew she could get back with me, but i knew i was gonna get fed up with it soon enough "call me a safe bet im betting im not", "you are second hand smoke" just poisonous



everything | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/6/09

this song reminds me of my life.
I come from a small town and people only know me for my past, I can't escape it or live my life with everyone judging me like this.
"Call me a safe bet
I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive
I'm only hoping as time goes
You can forget"

those lyrics are me.



closer | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/8/09

this song reminds me of this boy whom i had loved so much. he came on to me first after both of us feeling the attraction for quite a while being next to somebody else. he was decisive, he loved me. i couldn't show him anything although i loved him too much. i knew i would be hurt so much some how, and things would be so much better for both of us, and for some other people involved too, if we weren't togehter. the biggest reason why i couldn't express my emotion towards him was to protect myself before the hit gets larger. he was tired of it, and eventually left me. he's with another girl now. i still love him alot. for better or for worse, i don't regret what i did.



Close | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/22/09

This song makes me think of me and my boyfriend everytime i hear it, more of a song from him to me. In our 3 year relationship on and off hes cheated on me twice he always says he wishes i could forget, and my response is but atleast i forgave. Every word of this song makes me think about him, and some reason makes me sad. i love brand new and their lyrics. Evrytime i hear it ill always think of him



To me | Reviewer: Chris | 9/17/09

This makes me feel like there's some things a guy knows that he doesn't tell a girl. He just hopes they'll forget. He may feel bad, but he still is tired of knowing that you haven't let it go. He hopes you'll forget the good you both had together, so that everything right now won't feel so bad. He wants to stop caring about your feelings, so he can move on. Because he can't move on until you forget. You hold him back. Just forget.



lettin ya know | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/11/09

nah that kid up there had it right it is intended to be sarcastic...he broke this girls heart but its for the better...she thought she had it made with him but "hes not a safe bet" and now he is mocking her in a sarcastic way because he knew she wasnt the one for him. he didnt intentionally mean to hurt her and wants her "to forget" but he plays it off with sarcasm cause he realizes that he shouldnt take pity on the weak and insecure and do whats right for him. hes basically telling the girl he will do what it takes to not hurt her anymore but he just has to do whats best for himself witch everyone can relate to...great song and clever lyrics



a quiet reflection for what has ended and begun | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/27/09

i cant find the words.. but, this song stirs up so many emotions inside me. so many emotions that one person had caused and, although i had them and i have moved on, they seem to crawl back and churn inside me everytime i listen to this. i miss you but im so much better off without you. thankyou for what you showed me but, i have something so much better then what you ever could have given me.
