Awesome!

Another TBM fan!

Was just going to put a song of them this week.

TBM are pretty neat. I wouldn’t let my post hold you back from posting your preferred track!

Thanks, I may post later on, to space it out a bit. I may lose my patience and just post, hahaha.

[Verse 1]

Next phase, next craze, next "nothing new"

Got the pretty boy, beat him up black and blue

Broke the sissy boy's teeny toy heart in two

Turned him into a video kid like you


[Chorus]

I know we're just pretending

There's no window for mistakes

I know you see right through me

There's no promise left to break


[Verse 2]

Shot the pretty boy, killed him on commodore

Need a new game, need a new "something more"

Got a new face, got a new way to score

Got a voice like something I've heard before


[Chorus]

I know we're just pretending

There's no window for mistakes

I know you see right through me

There's no promise left to break


[Bridge]

The message misleading

We're lying, we're cheating

We're only repeating

The motions preceding


[Outro]

I know we're just pretending

There's no window for mistakes

I know you see right through me

There's no promise left to break

This is the one I was thinking of sharing, from Violet (2005) album :

Play Dead - The Birthday Massacre

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAMritvqfRw


[Verse 1]

And boys are so cold; they speak without meaning

The only time they talk is in their sleep

And girls are a bore; their touch without feeling

Their secrets always far too grim to keep

And up until now, you've lived in their shadows

Trying hard to please them

But they'll never change as long as they're breathing


[Chorus]

Thinking hurts and thoughts don't rhyme

To those of us who've never tried

To find a face behind our lipstick smiles

And as our pretty faces die

Our broken hearts will wonder why

The makeup just won't hide the scars of time


[Verse 2]

And boys are so cruel; so don't let them find you tonight

And girls are so vain; so put them behind you tonight

I'll cast you a spell, a magic where everyone plays dead forever

And after tonight they'll never remind you


[Outro]

Thinking hurts and thoughts don't rhyme

To those of us who've never tried

To find a face behind our lipstick smiles

And as our pretty faces die

Our broken hearts will wonder why

The makeup just won't hide the scars of time
