Off With Their Heads - Clear The Air Lyrics






I wanted to tell you, I wanted to share
Some important details that you're unaware of
I want you to listen, I want you to care
I'll choke to death if I don't clear the air
It's not a secret that I obsess
And then I get angry, and then I get stressed
And you can't imagine and you can't compare
You have no frame of reference and then you get scared

I'm doing my best to help make you see
That it's not your fault, when I'll beg and I'll plead
It's much easier just to go back to sleep
But we gotta find a place to start because I'm falling apart

I never feel happy, I never feel safe
I can't let myself ever stay in one place
I look in the mirror and I see the face
Of a failure who will never be significant
The face that you see from the morning to night
Is the mask that I put on to hide what's inside
I don't take it off until you fall asleep
I don't want you to see what lives inside of me

I thought I'd get older and it'd go away
But it only gets worse and causes more pain
And being alone is getting so hard
I just got to tell you

God damnit, I'm falling apart
I'm down on my knees in the dark
Feeling for whatever is left
But the pieces are falling too far

God damnit, I'm falling apart
(I'm falling apart) I'm down on my knees in the dark
(I'm falling apart) Feeling for whatever is left
But the pieces are falling too far

Don't leave yet
I haven't got to the part that explains it all
Don't leave yet
I need somebody there to catch me before I fall
To catch me before I fall
God damnit, I'm falling apart

I wanted to tell you, I wanted to share
Some important details that you're unaware of
I want you to listen, I want you to care
I'll choke to death if I don't clear the air right now

Off With Their Heads Clear The Air Comments
  1. B.... H....

    Fuck. This song destroys me every single time.

  2. K.... K....

    Some pussy is getting drunk, crying like a bitch, sucking the binky while listening to this.


    I'm such a hypocritical douche.

  3. S.... g....

    Now this is the perfect mix of punk and emo that I live for, definitely considering seeing these guys in Belfast.

  4. W.... D....

    This song screams BPD

  5. D.... ....

    How much glitter and confetti did that dude drink with his wine?

  6. U.... ....

    thanks. I needed this.

  7. R.... F....

    I'm fucking pissed, why is this guy talking like he doesn't give a fuck he should be breaking shit and yelling he's falling apart for fucks sake, self destruct, blame everyone, fuck them

  8. D.... S....

    Wish I found these guys sooner.

  9. C.... H....

    this is probably one of the most relatable and well written song that i have ever heard

  10. E.... A....

    Why is this literally woody from toy story

    E.... A....

    It's random but true

  11. M.... I....

    Relate to this I’m 60 years old LOVE this song Thanks Guys

  12. U.... H....

    This song got me through everything I’d been feeling while dealing with brain cancer. As you are reading this, I’m nearly 3 years in remission and still going🖤 I like to think this song was written just for me.

  13. K.... D....

    This song I strongly identify with.

  14. V.... H....

    Not gonna lie the first time I lost this video I was really confused... now that I’m watching it again a while later it just makes so much sense for absolutely no reason at all.

  15. J.... ....

    I never cry and I just did for the first time in months and I gotta admit listening to this was so cathartic

  16. L.... W....

    Is it bad that these lyrics are pretty much my mindset down to a T. So depressed I can barely operate, always on the edge of falling with no one to catch me. OWTH is keeping me going so far but it’s getting damn hard to keep it up

  17. D.... D....

    As someone with intimacy issues as well as massive self esteem problems this song is extremely relatable.

  18. o.... ....

    This song has helped me so much. I wanted to just say thank you for writing and sharing it. All the best.

  19. c.... m....

    I wore a mask for years. Convinced I was the only one who wore one. That everywhere I went...I was the only one dying hurting empty yet full on the inside. Years. Then one day I tried....my hardest damn it. Work up to beeping and told I’m going to be ok tho that’s not what I wanted. This happy go lucky face that I had protected could not be worn anymore. This song feels like the day when I had to face my family and friends and say....I feel apart.

  20. D.... ....

    I was two and a half years sober when I took my 5 year old daughter to see you guys at Darkness Day. I was so overwhelmed. When you got done playing I went across the street to buy some whiskey. I haven't been sober since.

    D.... ....

    Sorry Brother. Sorry Dad. Sorry Grandma. Sorry Ovie. Sorry Natalya. I am so sorry.

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

    this was my brother in laws suicide song to explain to his wife and 3 beautiful kids what was in his head ! , hopefully others that listen to it make a better choice than he did, ..........suicide doesn't take the pain away it passes it to someone else!!

  22. K.... n....

    Some important details that you're unaware of

    I know people warn others about listening to OWTH when depressed but oddly I feel better when I listen to them, like someone understands how I feel when I can't talk to family or friends because I'm scared of what they'll say or think.

  26. A.... S....

    Muppets kickass

  27. t.... ....

    I count this in my top 10 songs of all time.

    I just heard it, and thank you to all who helped create it.

  28. L.... A....

    Still going on on this song, masterpiece.

  29. J.... F....

  30. S.... S....

    Goddammit I'm falling apart

    Blood to the verse... Epic.

    If you want to know what it feels like
    This is what it feels like...

  33. P.... D....

    Just recognized you guys today. Why? Missed you without knowing all these years!

    This song is outstanding! One eye is crying, one is laughing.

    Because I can feel and hear it.

    Captain we're Sinking, PUP, Off with their Heads...

    Punk's not dead! Punk evolved!

    Love it

  34. P.... M....

    I absolutely hate myself when I listen to this song and I love it.

    Resource Based Economy anyone? 'The end of kings' video sent me here :) We need a new economic system such as proposed by the Venus Project, we need to wake up soon, we must build a system that is ruled bu compassion and equality instead of greed and competition, or we will vanish.

  54. R.... K....

    Off with their heads writes the best lyrics I can relate so much to all of their songs if anyone knows more bands that that write similar depressed songs let me know I never get tired of all of their music

  55. A.... C....

    God damn this shit just blew my head off,saying everything I have inside and probably everyone else

  56. M.... N....

    Thid band got me excited about music again.i love them from the first time i heard em.

  57. E.... ....

    I hate the fact I come back to this song weekly.

  58. s.... ....

    Never heard of these guys until this morning. It's EXACTLY what's going on in my head right now. Just got out of the hospital for a suicide attempt after coming clean about throwing 13 years of sobriety out of the window and hiding it from my friends and family for the last 8 months. I'm going to have to check out more of these guys.

  59. A.... ....

    Fuck Yeah!!!

  60. R.... M....

    God damn. This song. My life. Ugh.

  61. M.... ....

    Goddammit does this song sum things up for me. It’s pure magic. And yes the muppet is like icing on the cake. I love the lines, “don’t leave yet, I haven’t gotten to the part that explains it all. Don’t leave yet, I need somebody to catch me before I fall.” Been there, done that. It’s reassuring to hear someone else say it all so perfectly. Keep your hopes up high and your heads down low, ya’ll.

  62. i.... ....

    Song > video

  63. o.... ....

    Goddamnit, I'm falling apart!!!!

  64. U.... ....

    Still one of the greats.

  65. s.... c....

    Did you write this song about me, or you? I can't tell.

  66. N.... _....

    I'M TOO FUCKING YOUNG TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSELY WHEN I LIKE THIS MUSIC YAY LOL

  67. V.... ....

    1:55 xDDD

  68. J.... T....

    theme song for my life

  69. M.... C....

    Great song!F'IN awesome video!GREAT BAND!!

  70. M.... F....

    This songs hits to close to home i suffer for mental issues and damn what this guy says is spot on

  71. J.... F....

    I heard these guys on spotify two weeks ago and instantly fell in love with them. I feel like I'm under a rock sometimes missing great bands like this. Also this song though the lyrics and all it just something that so many people can understand. Even today this song my mood after work. <3

  72. M.... F....

    Thank you Spotify. I've finally discovered these guys and seeing em in North Jersey in November.

  73. A.... S....

    inspired by u2s numb video

  74. L.... E....

    So horrible that almost every year im only listening to this song because it fits (again) to my life...

  75. S.... A....

    this video made me feel "numb"

  76. F.... G....

    🎶🎵🎼🎸🎤👏👏👏🍻👍✌

  77. t.... k....

    This song speaks to the core of my being

  78. P.... C....

    I don't think it was intentional, but this song captures what it's like to live with Aspergers damn near better than anything I've ever seen/heard. What a beautifully tragic accomplishment.

    P.... C....

    Prank Calls From Outer Space I dont have it but i hear that man, seen a lot of different interpretations of this song but that clicks funnily enough. I dont think it's intentional either

  79. T.... M....

    this is the best video i have ever seen in my life and im old enough to remember where i was when video killed the radio star first played on mtv

  80. k.... m....

    epitaph is the best label by far

  81. M.... V....

    gone to see them everytime there here, it'd hard to get out of bed even tho I know they're here. I hate it all, bout to be 27 and it's gotten worse, I hate it all. I like their music tho. I hate everything else tho..

  82. M.... V....

    I am so alone

  84. A.... ....

  97. B.... V....

    Can't believe the Nihilist Arby's dude makes punk rock. What's even stranger is that the guy from Nihilist Arby's makes GOOD punk rock. What's even stranger is that the guy from Nihilist Arby's makes GOOD punk rock that got a deal WITH MOTHERFUCKING EPITAPH!

  98. E.... M....
