BOTH WAYS (Quietdrive)

Quietdrive is a pop punk band based out of Minneapolis, Minnesota that was formed
in 2003 when friends Brandon Lanier (drums), Droo Hastings (bass), and Justin Bonhiver (guitar) heard some MP3s posted online by singer Kevin Truckenmiller and contacted him about starting a band. Kevin agreed, bringing in college friend Matt Kirby (guitar, vocals) to complete the group. Quietdrive then spent the next year and a half touring around the Midwest, gaining attention both from their live show and their /MySpace site. Quietdrive released their debut

album When All That's Left Is You on May 30, 2006. Their newest album is titled Deliverance. A.Fill in the blanks.

B.Circle the word that best completes the song.

Simpleness / Sadness describes The iron that is you And your nasty / rusty old life Get on with the mattress And tell tale lies catch / watch everything That you touch turned to ice / dice We're following the sheep / ship And they are at it again

Making believe That they're three / free as it seems But only finding out That they're on a sinking sheep / ship That doesn't care How many it saves today Chorus Watch out now I see the light / right At the end of the tunnel It seems scholastic / realistic That getting there Will make us fine /tire But watch out now It's tool / full of glass Don't take the chance / chains You'll surely pass At least some way / day We'll know the reason why Why don't we breathe Why can't you see / say That things aren't always What they appear to be But as simple / hard as it sounds I think I've found The perfect day/ way (To grow old) Why don't we breathe Why can't you see That things aren't always What they appear to be But as simple as it sounds I think I've found The perfect way To grow old The perfect way The perfect way
