Matches, The - Papercut Skin Lyrics

MYSPACE ROMANCER ♥;;;;;

reminds me of mcr a little bit

2019 - still kicks ass

I love this song so goddamn much

I remember showing this to my best friend in high school and he gave me so much crap for how emo it was.

Here in 2018

2019 :)

2018. Still love this track.

Otto Wood sent me here

Its funny cause as i got older i realized what this song was about.

why is this such bad quality !!! @epitaph 😒😒😒

The singer reminds me of Gerard Way!

i used to play this cd driving my black pontiac in La , loud as possible :D

Still my favorite band and one of my favorite songs ❤️

To this day I still piss myself laughing at Shawn's face when he screams "VIIICODIN!!!!!!!!!" @ 3:00 !
Hahaha I love they just go ape all the time.

watching this in 2015 almost a decade later and still so good

+eleno lmao they dropped a new single >.>

lol remember Fuse? SURS?

Yes dumbass... You're not the only one who watched fuse back in the day. STFU

Hey Epitaph you think we can have better quality than 240p?

right? this is sad.

+1 pretty bad when the record label can't do better than 240p

god i forgot about them! used to listen to them all the time!

Aww this band was so great as well...! :(

Does anyone know if this is the same guy as the Doctor in Razia's Shadow?? There is definitely some......differences.

Yeah, Shawn Harris. Same guy. He did a lot of artwork for it too.

Okay, thanks! :)

Oh man that shit was so good, wasn't say anything on there too? I gotta go listen to that again.

if this was filmed in HD it might have actually gotten some notoriety 

Ever since I saw them at the Warped Tour I've been a huge fan. They sound amazing live!

thank you once again, epitaph records, for amazingness <3

someone please tell me where i can find and listen to borderline creep from their first album.

Ruubinnn They have the full album E Von Dahl killed the Locals on YouTube you can listen to.

Love it so much.

miss them soooooooo much

It's high school all over again!! Loved The Matches :)

This looks like it was soo much fun to make :) epic!

One of my favorites by the matches. They change a lot. But stay good.

Day in day out I call Timeout I call TIMEOUT!!!!

Love this song!

@iOscartheGrouch Afro-pop meets bouncy indie rock? Not exactly the same sound as the Matches, and far too restrained for my taste. Also, what the hell's up with the yacht club look?

@SkeltonKid Vampire Weekend.

ashame the split :(

the singer reminds me of Jack White a little bit. like, the way he acts. and kind of how he sings.
sick band :)

I think in years to come The Matches will be remembered as one of the most unique and innovate artists of the aughts (2000s). They were able to blend pop-punk, screamo, post-punk and electronica and still make something that's wholly their own. Can you name any other band that sounds like The Matches from the last ten years? I sure can't. I'm excited to see what Shawn and the guys do on their own, but I hope they do reunite at some point.

SkullyD um.. No, but they're good.

@LordLegless I saw them both the same night and fell in love with them both

@seidfric for sure!!! Matt's the bomb!

man the drumming in this video is genius, its hard to appreciate the drumming till you've learned yourself. The Matches are toe greatest, to state the obvious

This must have been the "screamo" of the 80's or 90's

"There was an old man called Michael Finnigan,
He grew whiskers on his chinigan.
The wind came along and blew them in again,
Poor old Michael Finnigan begin again. "

i forgot about this song...i love it :)

totally awsome

saw this band live a few years back. amazing live performance. :]

that little backwards part at the beignning of the song, does anyone know what it says?

Still Matt Whalen

The verses sound like something straight out of '80s New Wave. I don't know what to make of that.

such a good song!!

The Matches will forever be my favorite band :)

why does this band remind me of vendetta red?

he has such an expressive voice.
I loved him in Razia's Shadow, only one crazy enough for the doctor XD

why why whyyyy do they have to be on indefinite hiatus D:

i <3 the matches

this song is amazing ^_^

I love this song, but this has to be the worst film clip ever. Lmao.

Great song, great video. Perfect to rock out to : )

Myspace Romancer :)

You're right, it is an awesome song but I think this and What Katie Said are their best ones - still. :)

It doesn't sound like Shawn Harris singing in Sick Little Suicide! That's one of the main reasons I like The Matches so much, Shawn Harris has such a cool voice...

I wonder how tall he is... *sighs*

the crowd always goes off to it ive but i think its far from thier best song.
Sick Little Suicide!

Their best song! I love this so much!

I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ PAPERCUT SKIN!

eurgh lucky bitch,
someone make em come to london =/ x

olly olly oxen freee is a old school game lol

i freaking love this band / this video / this song.

<3333333

la daa daa daa daa daaaaa!!!

day out, day in, we begin again!

Love this song!

THE BEST SONG EVER!!!!
OMG I WANNA DANCE!!!
hehe

there was a flash of a fat guy in a towel...LOL!

they might be, punk rock really just means rebelious rock, and they kinda rebel. punk rock is sweet

1 :56 to 2:05 HOLY SHIT

What is he saying at the beginning of the song? Is it a subliminal message?

i think its alternative rock hmmmmm who noes the best is to leave them wif out a genre cuz their great this way

LOVE THIS SONG!!
The Matches are the best! <3

xx

the best band ever.:)

i dont think theyre punk rock at all and i love these guys. thats really sad if people think they are punk rock

ok i eed everyone that is a fan to tell me. do u think they are punk rock? i was told they were but they most certainly arnt.

!!!!!!!!CrAZy HOT!!!!!!!!

im pretty sure its not about coke.......

are you dumb? sunburn is about sniffing cocain, thus the "i had a bad day at the beach" aka, getting "wet" or high and blowing your brain out through your nose. and this song is about how hard it is to write good music and doing your best to do so

The songs about having a cold at the beach. Which is pretty funny.

oh man you laugh at massive knife wounds and you're telling people over the internet, you're cool.

too bad you're fucking queer.

holy crap... i'm about to ruin this song for everybody.. do you think The Matches got the guitar / Bassline from The Knacks - My Sharona?

haha cool! Still love Wake The Sun better :)

WHERE IS YOUR HEAAARRRRTTTT
oh god

yeah, i doubt they'd be as good.

I remember mcr when they weren't big, and I saw them at a small venue a LONG time ago. They were really good then, but now they have changed so much i cant really stand them.

its depressing to me that justin is gone

me too.

They have a very retro 80's sound.

I'm goin see them with Bayside, Valencia, and The Status in November.

:]

This music video would be acceptable if the lead singer was being gang bang'd by a legion of circus clowns.........

its about the mediocridy of the working life
just the utter repeditiveness of it...

Am I not seeing the point of this video?
Im not calling it stupid. I jsut don't see it :S. anyone wanna try explaining without
Cussing me out and calling me stupid? :F
Greatly appreciated.

ahahahahahaha
all alternative band music videos are like that
but there kool, lol

I was just about to type out dr manhattan but you have beaten me to it
Do you have their album its is f**king amazing

tbh.. most of the bands below aren't much like the matches so plz can someone else give us some bands similar :)
appreciated

the yeah yeah yeahs are only one of the awesome-st alternative punky bands in the world, songs you mightve heard from them include 'cheated hearts', 'maps', and 'gold lion'. not to mention the lead singer's my hero.

..you should check 'em out.

youre an idiot if you didnt know that members from the locust, yeah yeah yeahs, and blood brothers did a side project together..

mind your own business, and burn in hell you worthless piece of shit.

Yeah yeah yeahs and The locust are nothing like The Matches or Blood brothers. You Fail as well.

Blood Brothers are absolutly nothing like The Matches. You fail.
