Blackout, The - I Love Myself And I Wanna Live Lyrics






You drink, you drink alone
So alone, you're waiting for life to begin
Leave now and I'll follow you home
I wake you up to live how you wanted to live
Black eyes and broken bones
Because i know you'll spill my blood by the end of the day
Dirty kisses and filthy lies
I can't help, you're leaving

Those were the days
He's gone and blown them away

I love myself and I wanna live
I love myself, I love myself
I love myself and I wanna live
I love myself, I love myself

You think, you think out loud
Speaking tones you cant speak under control
With what you got you should be proud
You taken you life and filled it with hurt
Stop now and save us all
Because i know you'll be gone by the end of the day
You paint your brains all over the wall
Because i'm tired of waiting

Those were his days
Now he's blown them away

I love myself and I wanna live
I just wanna be awake for your kiss
I love myself and I wanna live
I'll do anything, I'll do anything

Just get up, get up, get up,
Come on get it up
Get up, get up, get up

ahhhh come on

Don't give up, give up, give up,
Give it up, give up, give up, give up

ahhhh

Just get up, get up, get up
Come on, just get it up
Get up, get up, come on

ahhhh

I love myself and I wanna live
I love myself and I wanna live

I love myself [x4]

Yeah!

  1. N.... R....

  2. M.... D....

    Pathetic attempt.

  3. C.... D....

    nirvana did it better

  4. R.... J....

    I locked myself in a portaloo.

  5. S.... ....

    I WANNA LIVE NISAM NISTA PROBO NI PICKE NI SALATE, NI VRUCE RAKIJE, KUVAM CAJ TEA

  6. G.... R....

    Well doesn't sound like it
    If you would really love yourself you wouldn't listen
    what others think about you
    thats the issue

  7. A.... D....

    God, this song is lame.

  8. T.... M....

    i think he was the first -_-...

  9. W.... ....

    Thank you; it's a bit annoying people have been pointing it out for nearly three years :/ like 20 people have told me something I knew of in the first place xD outgrew the band's later stuff, but their first two albums and EP were epic.

  10. W.... ....

    Lesson here is; never try to be witty in Youtube...You'll get flooded with comments about it being a parody almost three years later...

  11. T.... M....

    for 2 years people have been correcting you XD

  12. Z.... S....

    It's a parody of Nirvana's song: "I Hate Myself and Wanna Die"

  13. A.... ....

    This man gets it.

  14. E.... R....

    hey this is a parody of Nirvana

  15. S.... W....

    Jesus fucking christ, give that "WarlockAshlii" guy a break. Having a dig at him for putting some thought into a song, get over yourselves.

  16. 1.... ....

    It's a mock of Nirvanas song "I hate myself and I want to die"

  17. W.... ....

    It means Emotive Hardcore. And I'm aware....I was an emo during my teen years....

  18. w.... ....

    Erm emo means emotional music and not all emos want to kill them selfs :L

  19. H.... D....

    Nirvana kicks ass.

  20. S.... B....

    @WarlockAshlii lol

  21. I.... ....

    @WarlockAshlii also Nirvana did a song called I Hate Myself And Want To Die

  22. W.... ....

    @Banderbear200 It stands for emotive hardcore. Which was emotional hardcore punk, there's actually some happy songs which are emo like Jodie by Saves the Day, a lot of the Get Up Kids stuff. I know it isn't depressing and self harming but that's what people's perceptions of it are. Not saying it's right but it was just a stereotype. I didn't know it was a reference to a Nirvana song at the time as I only had their last two albums.

  23. B.... ....

    @WarlockAshlii they are a sterotypical "emo" band.. and also "emo" stands for emotional.. not depressing and self harming. reserch stuff before you say it please.

  24. S.... B....

    @WarlockAshlii Emo is about emotion, not suicide and self harm hence "emo".

  25. i.... ....

    i love The BlackOut!! :_ that it

  26. C.... D....

    I bloody love this song!!!!!

  27. e.... ....

    @TKLawThunder Totally.

  28. R.... M....

    I think they just love themself and want to live 8-)

  29. r.... ....

    one of the best songs x3

  30. S.... P....

    saved my life.

  31. S.... ....

    Saw them on the 5th of April :')
    Seriously one of the best days of my life, considering we met them ^^ The signing was amazing, I hugged all of them, and we even met Sean a few hours before! Funny story actually (it was outside the dentist)

  32. S.... ....

    @WarlockAshlii MCR is a good example of that! They've saved hundreds of kids lives, and they focus on helping people :'D

  33. m.... g....

    @feeder33 maybe so ;D but i can see both peoples reasons for writing both songs

  34. A.... J....

    @WarlockAshlii
    lol
    not really, the title's a parody of the nirvana song 'i hate myself and i want to die'

  35. T.... ....

    Oh the irony of this song

  36. T.... S....

    i love the blackout's fans.♥

    children of night; we are the best in town.. and if anyone tells you any different you tell them to STFUPPERCUT.♥♥

  37. B.... ....

    They wrote this song because of the Nirvana song 'I Hate Myself And I Wanna Die' or something along those lines. They wrote it because they wanted to give off a positive vibe. However, they don't actually mentioning anything to do with Nirvana in this song. They DO have a sound of their own, as you cannot compare them to any other band, they're too unique.. I'm a hugee fan of The Blackout and was lucky enough to see them live at Sheffield last saturday!
    They are amazing!
    Stacie <3

  38. S.... W....

    @halo1221 killing yourself is emo? what kind of stereotypical fuck up are you?

  39. S.... W....

    @TeamABJCJK they dont have 'a sound of their own' at all

  40. T.... ....

    farrrr from punk, punk its dead bands like sex pistols and the clash, it was about their anarchy. not this modern stuff good but not punk

  41. m.... ....

    @halo1221 all i can to you is ShutTheFuckUppercut :D

  42. m.... ....

    @poppunksteveo Kurt Cobain may have been a miserable but you cannot possibly deny the fact he is an idol that would just be naive

  43. T.... ....

    hahaha i love The Blackout! they have a sound of their own that no one can compare them too! haha i got to hang out with the band earlier this year when they were in the states haha it was bad ass!

  44. j.... k....

    @xRosaSimmonsx ok, killing yourself isnt emo? wow you are dumb. haha and yes he was emo. he killed himself cause he couldnt make good music. plain and simple...
    no other words are needed.
    but i have more, if you want

  45. H.... ....

    erection :)

  46. A.... ....

    this is awesome tbh.

  47. W.... ....

    I think it's meant to be ironic. Emo music is associated with suicides, self harming and depression. So what does an emo group do? Sing about how they love themselves and life. it's merely challenging people's preconceptions of emos.

  48. G.... M....

    @motionlesspictures Agreed!

  49. H.... ....

    well sorry i cant give the link but just look up i hate myself and i want to die if you want to hear it

  50. H.... ....

    at this link theres a song called i hate myself and i want to die, idk why but the ppl commenting there are so defensive of it they are pretty touchy i just said it must be emo anthem and someone sent me a reply loaded with profanities this song sounds a whole lot better to me...link:

  51. P.... ....

    they're taking the piss.

  52. J.... H....

    their new album is a bit of a let down :/

  53. m.... ....

    who cares about nirvana its obvious these two bands are completely different so shupp :)

  54. j.... w....

    Wow, great band, they joined lostprophets on stage at the wolverhampton civic hall, it was amazing!

  55. a.... a....

    I (L) the blackout

  56. a.... ....

    this song is just taking the piss out off kurt cobain :P
