I think he says "another loser anthem. whoah."
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

Yeah, well, they still suck in my opinion. Just to let ya know, I wasn't trying to make you look like an ass. But yes, the song still isn't good.

ok seriously, there is no offense intended in this post, i was just reading an article the other day that made me curious about the definition of the word "punk" i was a little surprised at what i found.

punk n.
1.Slang
a.A young person, especially a member of a rebellious counterculture group.
b.An inexperienced young man.
c.Of poor quality; worthless.
d.Weak in spirits or health.
2.Music
a.Punk rock.
b.A punk rocker.
3.Slang-A young man who is the sexual partner of an older man.
4.Archaic-A prostitute.

the article contained the phrase "jailhouse punk" which i guess is used to describe the submissive partner in a jailhouse homosexual relationship
:lol:
just thought it was funny

P.S. i also have nothing whatsoever against homosexuals- all in good fun people

Funny stuff there Steph. I think I just listen to true punk music, and I am pretty sure I am not the bitch in a jailhouse homosexual relationship either....

In other news, my brother really likes Sahara Hotnights. Both my brothers like them, actually.

I myself am not really into punk.

Goldfinger (I think that's the group's name) has a punk cover of "99 Luftballoons" called "99 Red Balloons". I like the cover. :)

99 Kriegsminister
Streicholz und Benzinkanister
Hielten sich fuer schlaue laute

Dass es einmal soweit kommt
Wegen 99 luftballoons
!EMiLY!
