Sum 41 - What Am I To Say Lyrics






What am I to say?
I'm all wrapped up in apathy
and I don't want to stay this way
There's nothing left to do
now that I am onto you
All I want to know is the truth

And I don't want to go
but I feel like I should
Cause' I'm falling apart
and I die, and die, and die

How could you be the better part of me
when we're only half of what we used to be?
Today, could you see, this isn't what we need
and I'm leaving all the pieces how they fell
So goodbye, farewell

What am I to say?
I still remember everyday
and memories don't fade away
And it all falls apart
in the shadows of the past
It can seem to be so hard but it's time the feelings pass

How could you be the better part of me
when we're only half of what we used to be?
Today, could you see, this isn't what we need
and I'm leaving all the pieces how they fell
So goodbye, farewell

To pull the trigger is now what you've waited for
I stand accused myself, sometimes I'm wrong, God help me
And hear beneath my lie, what am I praying for?
I don't believe in hell but I just might be there tonight

How could you be the better part of me
when we're only half of what we used to be?
Today, could you see, this isn't what we need
and I'm leaving all the pieces how they fell
So goodbye, farewell
Goodbye, farewell

    Gage brown Kinsel I know what screamo is i have listened to it in the past oh you might know suiside silence or stuff like that I have listened to screamo it’s just what my mom thinks I don’t really consider this screamo my mom does my mom won’t listen to anything with screams so this is what she considers screamo I and my dad used to listen to screamo so I know what it is. I was just saying okay an opinion is when you don’t agree with something. And a fact is when it is true so I know screamo okay so don’t be smart about it. Cause I know I am just saying so please stop argueing with me about it because you are starting to start up an opinion because you are arguing with me about it. Sorry if I sound rude but I don’t mean to I’m just saying okay.

    J.... M....

  31. C.... 8....

    So goodbye farewell my love ...

  32. J.... D....

    I absolutely love this album but this song is the best track on it

  33. E.... S....

    Sum's next album had better have more of these amazing power ballads like this and Crash and With Me. I feel like 13 Voices was incomplete without at least one.

    E.... S....

    13 Voices was a bit of a let down for me, personally. There were a few solid tracks, though. 100% my least favorite Sum 41 album.

    E.... S....

    @Matt McSherry yeah it is trying to be depressing yet triumphant, but songs like twisted by design sound kinda bland, and lacks power.

  34. R.... ....

    How could you be the better part of me?
    It'll remain in my mind forever

  35. R.... ....

    Now that I've felt the song ends up the depressing past, I'll repeat it many times when I'm sleepy or feel blues

  36. s.... l....

    this song is so painful

  37. N.... D....

    the bridge is unreal

  38. R.... L....

    Sounds like mcr helena

  39. e.... b....

    siete troppo powa

  40. F.... ....

    2:59 I don't believe in hell yet I might.... be there tonight

  41. K.... ....

    Love this song !!!

  42. M.... H....

    Check out my cover of this song

    M.... H....

    Marshall Haring No.

  46. P.... G....

    This song brought back so many memories the first time i listened to it. It's like i've been listening to it forever..

  47. D.... V....

    S.... G....

    it's true man, I hate 99% of my generations music taste.

    S.... G....

    same here... my friends just listen to doop doop di di di bah bah aaand... hip hop, dubstep, all of them can't be considered as music... "When we're only half of what we used to be..." :'(

    S.... G....

    C.... T....

    +Casper Tuxen Same here, I'm 23 and heavily into metal but I will always love Sum 41 and enjoy their music as the first time i heard them

  52. M.... M....

  55. S.... D....

    SUM 41 YOU´RE STILL ONE OF THE BEST... I LOVE YOUR SONGS

  56. F.... ....

    Is this the best Sum 41 song? And I have heard them all

  57. T.... A....

    And I'm leaving all the pieces how they fell. So goodbye, farewell.

  58. p.... r....

    this my song , jackie i never forgot u

    p.... r....

    Amanda, miss u too, baby

    p.... r....

    Dear Piers and Manoel, the nights only seem to grow colder without the warmth of your bodies lying next to mine

  59. T.... G....

    I personally think, this album is at the pinnacle of genius. SUM41 is utterly the most under-rated Band, of the last 15 years.. easy.

    T.... G....

    Under-rated? These guys were super popular when I was in School years ago. Shit Fat-Lip was played a crap ton on the Radio, so idk about them being "under-rated". When I think under-rated I think of bands or artists who didn't make it on a Top 50 chart.

    T.... G....

    @Kiddo VRSum 41 was a NORMIE band basically. Thank God I don't have kids going Fat Lip is the best Sum 41 song and trying to sing it.

    T.... G....

    It really isn't. There must be many bands you haven't heard

    T.... G....

    I love sum 41, they're one of the few bands that I havent found a single bad song from.
    But come on, they're not underrated compared to a lot of other bands that don't even get 10k monthly listeners, these guys get millions.

    T.... G....

    Haha yea man they're an every hit wonder

  60. A.... ....

    "How could you bae...the better part of me..."

    A revelation I had while being bored af at work...and for the record I think "bae" is a stupid term.  Nonetheless it is what it is, it works.  End scene

    A.... ....

    I know you idiots. Re read what I actually wrote. Morons

    A.... ....

    @Alternative88D wow.

    A.... ....

    @Alternative88D You still have bae down you liar.

    A.... ....

    haha yeah. sorry for being an idiot

  61. R.... P....

  67. D.... R....

    Why do I miss the old Sum 41? Because Deryck is the only founding member left. Thats why.

    D.... R....

    +Dewayne C he wasnt exactly an original member. they kept going thru bassist after bassist then they met cone then released half hour of power

    D.... R....

    We got 3 founding members now. :D If only Steve-o would come back.

    D.... R....

    My Favourite Song from Sum41 ... !

  77. Z.... L....

    I could tell that you just had some, considering that you couldn't spell alcohol right.

  78. D.... E....

    Why do you miss the old Sum 41? They are still an awesome band.

  79. V.... ....

    I alway get a gooseflesh at 1:45 ! "When it all fells apart.... in the shadows of the past" ....

  80. s.... ....

    Alcohol helps in the moment when you are drunk. But when you are sober it all comes back.

  81. D.... E....

    How do you do that?

  82. j.... ....

    saby..

  86. A.... C....

    I want a video clip for this!!

  87. a.... c....

    I still remember every day ... the memories don't fade

  88. O.... G....

    La letra esta mal en algunas partes, podrias corregirla con etiquetas encima. Ejemplo: "And here beneath my light" es "And here beneath my lie". Gracias ^^

  89. S.... ....

    "I don't believe in hell, but I just might be there tonight."

    exactly.

    S.... ....
