Poison the Well

[joe52985]

Anyone listen to poison the well? PTW is IMHO the best hardcore emo band out there. they have the most kickass lyrics! heres my fav song NERDY, it will get you hooked, dl them!

Why do your eyes paralyze me
What makes me feel this way
Carry me away with silence and
heartbeats as rapid (and heartbeats as rapid)

Thinking about your embrace
and how it makes me feel
I just want to feel this way forever

Sleep on portraits painted as perfect as you
Why have I been given the chance to fly
When I'm not with you I feel lesser alone
Why have I been given the chance to fly away

I remember your face imprinted on angels
Your voice as beautiful as the sound of waves
Crashing against my heart

Time slows down when
you look at me
I'm infatuated with this
Infatuated with you

I remember
your face
imprinted on angels

It's so hard for me to understand
Why I hadn't found you before
Hold my hand

see see see they rock!

[Memo]

Yes, PTW is an awesome band and Nerdy is a great song. I never get tired of it, I jam it all the time. If you like Hardcore i'm sure you know Shai Hulud and Boy Sets Fire, they're pretty good bands. If not check out the songs

Shai Hulud - Love Is The Fall of Every Man
Boy Sets Fire - Pariah Under Glass

Glassjaw is a pretty good post-hardcore band if you haven't already heard of them. Some other not-so hardcore bands (more screamo) you might want to check out are Senses Fail (sounds like Thursday) and BelovedNC. Here are some good songs:

Senses Fail - Free Fall Without a Parachute
BelovedNC - The Aftermath
