All Time Low - The Irony Of Choking On A Lifesaver Lyrics






Stop fucking around with my emotions
I like you better when you're numb
I'm sick and tired of false devotion
Devote yourself to moving on
Or suck it up and let it go

But you're always out to get me

You're the snake hidden in my daffodils when I'm picking flowers
That's just my luck these days
Why can't you just be happy for me?
You're the brake lights failing as my car swerves off the freeway
It kind of feels like sabotage
Why can't you just be happy for
Why can't you just be happy for me?

You think opinions make you savvy
(Like you're some kind of "expert")
Your running mouth falls on deaf ears
(I tried to get you to understand)
You say you're winning 'cause you're laughing
(get it all into the last time)?
While I'm crying crocodile tears
Just suck it up and let it go

But you're always out to get me

You're the snake hidden in my daffodils when I'm picking flowers
That's just my luck these days
Why can't you just be happy for me?
You're the brake lights failing as my car swerves off the freeway
It kind of feels like sabotage
Why can't you just be happy for,
Why can't you just be happy for me?

(Why can't you just be happy for)

Why can't you just be happy for me?
(I'll never be good enough no, I'll never be good enough)
Why can't you just be happy for me?
(I'll never be good enough no, I'll never be good enough)

But you're always out to get me

You're the snake hidden in my daffodils when I'm picking flowers
That's just my luck these days
Why can't you just be happy for me?
You're the brake lights failing as my car swerves off the freeway
It kind of feels like sabotage
Why can't you just be happy for,
Why can't you just be happy for me?

All Time Low The Irony Of Choking On A Lifesaver Comments
  1. l.... ....

    2019 anybody?

    l.... ....

    I believe comments like this come from the scum of the earth.

    Ok, just kidding, don't take seriously

  2. P.... S....

    Nice Video... good work.. A song you can play around your kids...No cussing...

  3. g.... ....

    1.25x daaaaaammmmnnn

  4. P.... ....

    When you know someone that has choked on a lifesaver

  5. S.... P....

    I got a friend at school to like ATL after she listened to The Edge Of Tonight

  6. f.... a....

    Why do i always read "The irony of cchoking on a lightsaber"?

  7. B.... O....

    Oh the irony- I was wonder whether or not it was even possible to choke on lifesaver candies ad I get a catchy song from a band I've never seen before!😂

  8. I.... ....

    I’m just sat over here being all British like wtf is a lifesaver and how can u choke on it?

    I.... ....

    Its a candy with a whole thriugh it to prevent choking

  9. m.... m....

    i’ve loved these guys for at least 3 years and i’m seeing them live for the first time on monday and i’m so pumped

  10. i.... w....

    I never realised that whatever i was singing was completely wrong

  11. B.... B....

    NANANANANANANANANANA

  12. B.... S....

    I forgot about this song OMG

  13. I.... D....

    I keep singing ‘you’re the brake lights failing as my car swerves off the freeway’ and that’s the only part I can sing until I play the song, so my family thinks I’m a little fucked up but okay

  14. S.... S....

    and the award for best song title goes to...

  15. M.... S....

    Such a solid breakup song, I've been blasting this for the past week ever since I broke up with my boyfriend

  16. P.... A....

    I always think about my ex and first love 2009 really sad song for me and bad relationships.

  17. T.... ....

    i love the title

  18. E.... B....

    I told my friend how ironic it was that i started choking on a lifesaver and she sent me this

  19. M.... H....

    *Seems like half my life, That what This Song is*

  20. S.... n....

    I choked on a long fe saver when I was like ten and now I find this song the universe is fucking around with me

  21. C.... M....

    What a bop

  22. C.... F....

    People making comparisons... tschh.. All Time Low is on an entire different level then some of the comparisons. Their not even my favorite band and please stop underrating them.

  23. F.... M....

    First of all I love the title and second WHY THE HELL WAS JACK'S PIZZA NOT GETTING SMALLER? I need to know

  24. K.... ....

    Someone on the bus the other day asked their friend if they'd ever choked on a lifesaver and I had to fight the urge to scream out this song

  25. V.... L....

    I choked on a lifesaver in kindergarten. While walking to the nurse the teacher kept shushing me. I was choking and crying. What can she expect

  26. t.... t....

    "Or suck it up and let it go" Well no one at my school can do that.

  27. [.... m....

    Parents: why don’t you get off your phone and go outside for once?
    Me: at least I’m not doing drugs
    Parents: great, but you should really get out of your room and go out with your friends or something! All this emo stuff is taking over your life!
    Me: WHY CAN’T YOU JUST BE HAPPY FOR ME!?

  28. [.... m....

    I’m surprised the title of this song wasn’t already taken by Fall Out Boy

  29. a.... L....

    oml the boner shirt😆😆

  30. I.... J....

    I told my mom this song title and she just stared blankly at me spitting out the candy she was eating

  31. i.... h....

    This song is helping me through so much, I’ve been listening to it on repeat for the past day. There’s a lot of stuff going on in my life right now and they always seem to have a song that helps me out

    i.... h....

    ma chérie I hope that your doing okay and that life gets better for you. Have a good day and keep on listening to the good tunes

  32. T.... B....

    When you're in a band and start listening to Fall Out Boy and then this happens
    This is how I imagined this title coming about 😂

  33. d.... ....

    atl's songs have such amazing titles no matter what album you look at

  34. D.... B....

    Somebody described this song to me as the counterpart to Marianas' Trench's 'So Soon' and that just adds like six layers to both songs holy shit.

  35. N.... D....

    Who else is watching this in 2017?

  36. S.... ....

    Whenever Alex Gaskarth, or anyone else, tells me not to share my opinions on their later albums if I don't like them, which he has on Twitter, I will point to this song & say, "but YOU are judgemental in your past songs & are telling people what to do, you fucking hypocrite."
    Long live _Don't Panic!_

  37. T.... P....

    this song makes me feel something I haven't felt in a while...
    not Shure that it exactly is, but I've been without it for a long time :3

  38. H.... M....

    This song is super old now. But fun fact, when I was 3 years old I choked on a life saver. To this day I do not suck on any type of candy.

  39. I.... R....

    This is probably my favorite song from this album. <3

  40. B.... ....

    don't you ever hear a song that's so good it makes your heart skip a beat? This is that song for me.

  41. T.... O....

    BRASIL 2018

  42. L.... :....

    When I first heard this album I was like "hah I'm never going to relate to this"

    But now I relate to dis...

  43. F.... A....

    I have to thank teen wolf for showing this band to me!! (The poster in stiles bedroom)

  44. W.... ....

    Jack reading a book?

    W.... ....

    It must really be the end of the world if he’s reading lol

  45. J.... R....

    So fuckin catchy I LOVE IT

  46. J.... R....

    I'm relatively new to All Time Low and I can't decide what my favorite song is. SO MUCH GREAT MUSIC

  47. D.... ....

    Why do I enjoy the same music as teenage girls. What the fuck.

    D.... ....

    DarknessCalling Hey, at least this isn't One Direction.
    This stuff is better.

  48. A.... ....

    All Time Low deserve to win an award for most creative title ever

  49. L.... ....

    "Stop fucking around with my emotions"

    sums up my life and each time I read a sad fanfiction, or listen to a sad song....

  50. C.... ....

    It's my birthday so I'm having an atl marathon 'cause their music makes me happy :)

  51. s.... t....

    I've been a fan since I was 7 (my dad likes all time low so I kind of grew up listening to them) and this is still by far by favorite song

  52. P.... A....

    ya'll I thought I was over this stage in life🙁

  53. W.... B....

    what have I been doing in my life for it to take me this long to find them?!??!?!

  54. B.... B....

    My friend was the first one to introduce me to All Time Low in 6th grade(years ago) I remember us sneaking her Ipod to recess(yes we had recess) and whenever I heard this song go on I would scream the first 6 words across the school.

  55. S.... F....

    I love this song so much xD

  56. D.... H....

    esta musica le sentì una esencia como de Timbiriche-Muriendo Lento

  57. D.... H....

    me gustò la musica :D Like, a favoritos y descargada

  58. R.... L....

    Emos and zombies combined XD

  59. D.... G....

    The greatest mystery here is who the fuck is taking the pictures?

  60. C.... A....

    that's a lot of not panicking. nothings happening to them because they're not panicking so you survive cataclysms by not panicking? oh, screw it. This is one of my favorite songs by all time low.

    C.... A....

    5 years and still strong

  61. P.... P....

    i'm so close to crying because all the memories just coming along.

  62. M.... ....

    The comments have a lot of edge.

  63. K.... ....

    STOP FUCKING AROUND WITH MY EMOTIONS

  64. J.... J....

    Shout out to all the insufficient jealous mentally incompetent miserable girls that still try and poison me your hate is my progressional drive to be better at everything 😀

  65. S.... D....

    i want to blast this song at my school for all the people who get annoyed by their exes or any other school for that matter

  66. J.... J....

    This is tight.

  67. N.... ....

    I like how the apocalypse is happening around them and they're kinda just like "eh."

    N.... ....

    Basically Tumblr users if the Apocalypse did ever happen. Nobody cares, especially the SPN fandom, just 'eh, we beat it once, what can a second time do to us?'

    N.... ....

    Daily Dose Of Stupid the theme is 'don't panic'

    N.... ....

    typically my bf.. ;)

    N.... ....

    A real life metaphor, if you will.

  68. p.... h....

    this is my jam

  69. B.... F....

    jacks shirt lmao

  70. M.... K....

    I would love this song if it didn't bring up bad memories from an abusive relationship

    N.... ....

    Idk if he does now but he always used to wear it.. Lmao

  74. B.... R....

    "boner"

  75. I.... B....

    "What are you some kind of expert?" this part gets me everytime

  76. S.... V....

    the strider brothers would be proud of this title

  77. P.... U....

    o.o a girl named Brianna in 5th grade choked on a life saver.... XDDD such irony!

  78. L.... ....

    Can we just talk about the dude waving the sign that says "That's All Folks" in the backround at 2:32

    L.... ....

    basically

  79. F.... A....

    when you choke on water in the middle of an exam

    F.... A....

    The water kills you in the exam therefore you are saved

    F.... A....

    I have high respect to anyone that drowns themselves in the middle of an exam to avoid failing.

    F.... A....
