Say Anything - Thoughts On A Liberal Education Lyrics






i've been waiting for years for this to end
but now you're gone and i don't know where i am
put my head in the books i burned for you
they'll revive me, that's what they'll do

i'll silence you with sex and drugs and education
murder you in mind and heart for all you put me through
this is my last song for you
i will not be your number two

and i ate poison growth with my new friends
and it was awkward to watch the colors blend
as i laid on the ground and drooled and sighed
i thought of you love, and how hard i tried

to silence you with sex and drugs and education
murder you in mind and heart for all you put me through
this is my last song for you
i will not be your number two

silence you with sex and drugs and education
murder you in mind and heart for all you put me through
this is my last song for you
this is my last song for you
this is my last song for you
baby i won't be your number two

Say Anything Thoughts On A Liberal Education Comments
  1. P.... S....

    Say anything used to be so good ... now they are just commercial angst pandering towards a young crowd ... oh well I remember them in their prime in the 2000s .

  2. A.... ....

    recently finishing my educational experience, even being 26, I feel I connect with Max's experience, even if he were 18 or 19 when he wrote this, more or less in a greater way than any educational experience could have expressed or taught.

  3. d.... g....

    I felt my soul cry the first time I heard this

  4. P.... S....

    This song is seriously so beautiful. I love max's voice! (:

  5. J.... ....

    is this against liberal education or for it?? Sorry I cant tell.
    Regardless, melody is pretty epic for a lack of drums

    J.... ....

    +JustYouWait So I think he's using Liberal less in the sense of politics and more in a sense of going away to college and partying, and having sex. While still receiving and education. It also seems like this is his payback to either a girlfriend or his parents. So I don't think its for or against anything.

  6. B.... B....

    I love this song so much

  7. R.... A....

    And this should seal it up

  8. W.... ....

    Really like this

  9. s.... ....

    This would be so perfect if it weren't for that awful fucking noise in the background during the last chorus.. I love this song more than most.

  10. I.... ....

    I will not be your number 2.

  11. k.... ....

    an eargasm sir

  12. N.... G....

    This is the most incredible song.

  13. d.... m....

    had more emotion since it was liveeee

  14. d.... m....

    and also e.r. : all my friends are enemies

  15. d.... m....

    i liked colorblind acoustic

  16. T.... E....

    i masturbated to this just 6 seconds ago
    ..im not going to clean up :]

  17. G.... ....

    I think the acoustic versions are good just as songs,but this version uses electric guitar and various effects to really set the mood of the song. You don't here the intense depression and self-loathing in the acoustic versions.

  18. T.... E....

    what albums this on???

  19. W.... D....

    He didn't play anyone... the video to Alive with the glory of love appeared on a television screen

  20. a.... ....

    Who the hell disliked this? :( bastard

  21. i.... ....

    goosebumps, ugh... Max Bemis <3

  22. D.... ....

    This song is so fucking great. Every thing about it is amazing, it has a trippy feel to it.

  23. D.... M....

    This song is so good.

  24. B.... ....

    @Surfrskatrguy Heh, the ears. RIIIGHT.

  25. B.... ....

    @warningjoeter Was he? Who'd he play?

  26. T.... ....

    This song made me realize that I'm still going to be listening to Say Anything when I'm 40.

    T.... ....

    TokenMaGreen are you still listening to them now?

  27. A.... M....

    This song just explains everything... I cant stop listening to it.

  28. B.... ....

    @tekraeckwon I think he's more talking to himself other than to a girl or a personified society.

  29. J.... ....

    \As I listened to this song, a single tear came from my left eye.

    Needless to say, I became her number 2.

  30. J.... L....

    @TheJoeFaulkner what actually is this version because i had the discography pretty much and never heard it ):

  31. J.... L....

    @baysideiscult i cant find it either ):

  32. J.... L....

    This is fucking awesome (: fuuuuuuuuuuck!

  33. B.... J....

    shot of the tv reminds me of when max was on the movie bridge to teribithia :)

  34. J.... G....

    @Surfrskatrguy not just the ears....

  35. e.... n....

    How do you actually download from about falling?

  36. T.... M....

    @XsloanneyX I dunno, I think it's pretty much about losing someone. Just using drugs and sex to forget about them.

  37. K.... C....

    @xzxPsychokinesiSxzx yeah,this particular one doesn't sound like it's about a girl

  38. K.... V....

    @XsloanneyX Most of his songs are about girls, so maybe that is. But you can always relate a song to different things.

  39. K.... C....

    can someone please tell me what this song is about?the government maybe?

  40. C.... M....

    WHERE CAN I DOWNLOAD THIS?? I WILL PAY ANYTHING

  41. r.... ....

    @ratehim dude... this song.. man.

  42. m.... ....

    The conversation between elreid0 and ratehim is awesome, haha

  43. r.... ....

    No sir, not me.

  44. r.... ....

    Weird? I like this version a lot better!
