Birthday Massacre, The - Goodnight Lyrics






First place on a classroom wall
Every turn of the face can help to break
The fall from a domestic disgrace
Every rumor displaced
Is lost and found

A lack of discipline
One hand to cut the other
So unprofessional
You're not a friend
You're just a lover

Nothing exceptional
This is correctional

Mirror on the wall
Frame the picture
Reflect this kiss
To wish us all goodnight

First day in a victim's chair
Every surface replaced
Can help to keep you
Fair for a corrected gaze
Every feature displayed
Will match your crowd

A loss of innocence
One hand to wash the other
Be a perfectionist
You're nothing if
You're just another

Something material
This isn't personal

Mirror on the wall
Frame the picture
Reflect this kiss
To wish us all goodnight

We're all dancing
To the same sad song
And we're not sleeping
But it won't take long

Illicit conviction
Confessions incomplete
Correction
Submissive restriction
Instructions will repeat
Direction

Mirror on the wall
Frame the picture
Reflect this kiss
To wish us all goodnight

    I've been listening to them about a decade and it's always fresh. No one quite like TBM out there. I'm always looking forward for a new album to buy.

    Great name for a song that would actually keep someone up. Curiously enough, I just learned of the band yesterday and am loving them.

  10. s.... ....

  11. Z.... J....

    One of their more underrated songs & all the better for it.
    I only discovered this great band a few weeks ago!

  12. H.... ....

    Best part is at 2:40 to 3:02. Too bad it's so short....there was brilliance there the way the song transitions like that.

  13. b.... w....

    love it 😘

  14. V.... L....

    Dear gods, the time I listened to this music, I fell in love (my second favorite, after the violet). It's a kind of sadness, but beautiful sadness. I like to feel sad in listening to it. Abstract lyric we understand deep inside, not reason's. An excellent masterpiece 😞💜

  15. h.... l....

    mirror on the wall..frame the picture

  16. J.... L....

    I draw inspiration for horror art from TBM.

  17. S.... ....

    They seriously need to put this band in a movie or TV show, you hear music in everything nowadays, from every Marvel movie to Walking Dead episode.. Birthday Massacre needs its due!

    S.... ....

    funnyshite83 The Vampire Diaries had one of their songs on in the background in the first or second season. Someone's birthday and they were playing, "Happy Birthday" by TBM. I was like, "omg thats TBM!" :)

    S.... ....

    funnyshite83 I heard them once on vampire diaries I was like is that TMB??!! OMG!!! 😁😜 correct me if I'm wrong, might have have been the first season.

    S.... ....

    A video game would be best.

    S.... ....

    @Charles Burnham Just imagine, 8bit versions of their songs; that would be amazing.

  18. H.... W....

    falling more in love with this band with each song i play from them

  52. T.... ....

    It's interesting to see how a person evolves over the years. After 20 years of being in every subculture imaginable, I've become a combination of all my favorite features of each stage in my life. Goth included, but I could never pull off the look.

  53. T.... ....

    Ever since I've heard the chorus to this song....I can't help but hum/sing this song when I'm having dark thoughts

  54. Z.... G....

    Forcsythe-YES! I came on hear to check the comments for that EXCACT reason-listen to Midlife Crisis by Faith No More-chorus is SO similar. Both are great songs in any event.

  55. R.... C....

    I love this song.

  56. F.... ....

    Has anyone else heard Faith No More's "Midlife Crisis" ? (Sorry if anyone already mentioned it.)

  57. M.... ....

    Ugh this song is giving me so much story ideas!!! I'm in love!

  58. m.... ....

    First song I ever heard from TBM...it was from a radio website...and I loved it. Ever since I have been HOOKED and can't get enough!

  59. Y.... M....

    The first song of TBM that I've ever listened to. And everytime I listen to it, I feel it so magical as the first time.

  60. J.... F....

    Good sound

  61. J.... O....

    I loe this song

  62. u.... ....

    I miss this song

  63. D.... D....

    listening to this before bed. :)

  64. T.... Z....

    i love them since 2005 <3

  65. P.... C....

    I used to be a little girl too!

  66. P.... ....

    I like your profile picture by the way..

  67. c.... ....

    I don't think it's such a bad thing.I mean, those guitar parts do not sound exactly the same and i think nobody can accuse TBM for plagiarism or copying other songs. But i really wanted to know other fans oppinion regarding this situation. Thank you for replying ! Have a nice day! PS: Scuze me for my english. :D I hope you understand what i said.

  68. c.... ....

    Hi! Well, no, the lyrics are different for each opposing song. But i heared that they are Deftones fans. The guitar part from the beginning of "Red Stars" and "In the dark" (and during the songs) is very very similar to the guitar part from Deftones's "Bloody Cape" and "Hole in the Earth" . Just open those songs and listen first to Bloody Cape and then Red Stars and after that open Hole in the Earth and then In the dark. They sound very similar.

  69. M.... F....

    One week ago, My boyfriend introduced me to this band from his playlist. This song was the first to play. Since then I cant stop listening to The Birthday Massacre! Thank you my darling! Most epic song. Most epic band!

  70. P.... ....

    But seriously just enjoy it.

  71. P.... ....

    It doesn't matter if you're goth or not, as long as it isn't for popularity or fitting in, and as long as you enjoyed listening to TBM. Be yourself (as anyone would say.....lol?)

  72. S.... ....

    It really depends, dude. Are the lyrics even similar for each opposing song? Because if they're different, it could be coincidence.

  73. V.... I....

    Try out "Diablo Swing Orchestra"

  74. D.... B....

    my favorite song by TBM that got me syked into them was happy birthday :D awesome band ever!!

  75. c.... ....

    Well, yes it seems they sound similar. But i believe that the those "progressions and meter" not only Duran Duran has, many other bands from around the world used that verse line. Hope you know what i meant. :)

  76. D.... 1....

    i lost faith in all humanity when i noticed that tbm had less followers than justin beaver

  77. T.... K....

    Anybody else notice that the verse sounds a lot like Come Undone by Duran Duran? (Obviously the choruses are totally different but the chord progressions and meter are strangely similar...)
    Wonderfully dark song though.

  78. c.... m....

    I love this song. lol

  79. J.... Y....

    I love this band.

  80. j.... h....

    THERES A WHOLE NEW LIFE OF MUSIC OUT HERE JUST HAVE LOVE FOR REALNESS AND DARKNESS AND ACCEPT WHAT IT IS THE TRUTH

  81. c.... ....

    I hope you understand what i was trying to say... Don't get me wrong! I am a huge fan of them and i want to read other oppinions from fans. :)
    Sorry for the long text and for my english...i'm from Roumania. :) Have a nice day!

  82. c.... ....

    but i like to know your personal oppinions regarding those songs. :)

    And did you happen to know other songs that have inspired any other songs of TBM??? Or any of their other songs are perfectly original??? I think that all bands have a source of inspiration and it's not bad to get inspired a little bit from other songs, but i encourage creativity and originality and i don't want them to lose their unique sound and style, just because it may sound different or cooler...

  83. c.... ....

    Hello TBM fans! I am a fan of TBM since 2009. Since then, i listen to all of TBM songs and i enjoy every single one of them, my favorite one is Blue. I know that they have an unique sound and they're a very precious band in this world full of different genres of music but i discovered that their songs "Red stars" and "In the dark" are a bit inspired by two songs from Deftones "Bloody Cape - Red stars" and "Hole in the Earth - In the dark". I'm NOT saying that they plagiarized or anything but

  84. E.... ....

    If you're calling her cis, I'm guessing you're trans. You're hardly helping yourself, other trans people, or allies by calling her out randomly

  85. H.... C....

    easily one of their best tracks =D

  86. T.... ....

    Amazing

  87. T.... ....

    Best 240p I've ever heard. Maybe.

  88. R.... ....

    This song is possibly the most beautiful song ive heard

  89. s.... ....

    "be a perfectionist, your nothing of your just another" kaboom

  90. A.... F....

    Rachel this is not necessary

  91. G.... ....

    There is no answer I can give that wont convince you that you are right. Including this one. Sorry, brother.

  92. H.... ....

    Her voice is beautiful.

  93. S.... O....

    I discovered this song through a halo reach montage.... best bid ever

  94. M.... M....

    I keep getting chills when I listen to this band. OK it's not too warm in this room but I don't get that feeling down my back when I'm not playing one of their tracks here on YouTube.

  95. d.... ....

    Said the guy commenting in the comment section of YouTube :-)

  96. M.... ....

    Beautiful song it had an epic quality

  97. N.... M....

    That´s my favorite song <3
