It was Fear of Myself That Made Me Odd
Watch Out!

(Breathe in all the air)

Spinning, arms spread
Crushing the tops of mountains
With my hands
As I dive into the Pacific
I flood the shorelines

And I exhale
Causing the oceans' endless waves
As I emerge
Shaking the wreckage from my hair
With my hands

I want to breathe
Life into the Dead Sea

As this rainforest
Falls beneath my knees
I want to breathe
Life into the Dead Sea

Below, where is your boat?
You are slow, you are slow

I will play until the sky is black (You...)
Breathe in all the air
Exhale and choke the land with carbon (...are so slow, slow)
Burn it all
Looking down
From where I stand
I can see the curvature of the Earth
And I want to make it flat

I will play, the sky is black
I will play, the sky is black.

  • Watch Out! is sadly underrated...

  • After i read the lyrics a rush of imagery came to me. And the way Dallas sings it as well. I think of a giant thats only capable of destruction but wants to preserve life. Instead it embraces its terrible power. And then i think of this song as an analagy for Humans. Although we wish to preserve life, all we're truly capable of is destruction. . .

  • @jakemac08 actualy, the only thing that rivals this album abrs consolations album, but thats a different genera.

  • @jakemac08 Personaly think the best album ever by alexisonfire, and by any band i know. that voice, oh dallas, that voice... <3 swoon

  • @CoryCanDo Midnight regulations turned the last album from maybe 3rd of 4 to tied for first. Such a dope song.

  • @TheFatSteez I feel it is my duty to lecture anyone who makes the mistake lol.

  • @gotosleepfatty agreed

  • favorite album by far, its a toss up between all the rest for second, midnight regulations almost single handedly etched first place for yc/oc

  • i wish the riff went longer before dallas started singing it would compliment dallas so much better

  • KICK ASS

  • Demo > Album version

  • The lyrics are phenomenal, so is this album, the best that's what it is.
