Dance Gavin Dance - Burning Down The Nicotine Armoire Lyrics

Still hits the same! DGD is always breathtaking, old and new!

Forreal tho

Where the fucks my laptop Jonny??

This song kinda makes me hate todays music (mainstream music i guess). This track is pure.

Dude I feel that so much, I listen to DGD almost every day at some point. True talent during a talented era!

2:19 ❤️🔥🥋

Jonny why you gotta be a dick and keep fuckin up THIS IS CLASSIC DGD

People of the future take note, this EP is important for the genre.

I wish I could sign like that

Man those were the days back in 06 . Morgan Hill was a lit show and got to hang out after the show also. Nice to you guys blow up since those little shows

Not a big fan of JC but this album maaannn, idk why so many people hate on this album.

myspuuc curse iz hur gurlpants r out ruunun

this song is proof that the human race was meant for something greater

this isnt even a band anymore this is like looking into the eyes of god

back when dance gavin dance made songs that will never be forgotten

3:33 will always destroy me

People like this trash?

Lyrics in the description are wrong
Here's the real ones:

(And they would follow you home)
(Until we wind up dead)
(Checking your pulse)
(We'd wait across the street)
(Under our tree)
(Outside the front door)
(In autumns blind embrace)
(But you wouldn't let her anyway and we run)
(And we framed these moments)
(Till one remaining cold calculated thought)
Today your dream is dead
And when you wake it won't be there
Today your dream is dead
And sew that smile up with threads
Embrace this hope
And let it flow
You failed it
To shy to know your worth
Hurt from insensitive behavior
You're scared of what this really is
And where this might lead us next
Don't let me go I feel it
Don't let me go

(Prescribe the drug)
(Prescribe the drug)
It's how I feel about love
(Try to sleep)
(Try to sleep)
(Here I go)
That it's not worth it
(Prescribe the drug)
(Prescribe the drug)
That's how I feel about love
(Try to sleep)
(Breathe, try to sleep)
(You're not dead)


In failure dreams fall
Pushing nightmares over pavement
Walking these streets like a victim
Writing death threats in the wet cement
You say that I will lie
And let me win this life
You won't regret my love

(Prescribe the drug)
(Prescribe the drug)
It's how I feel about love
(Try to sleep)
(Try to sleep)
(Here I go)
That it's not worth it
(Prescribe the drug)
(Prescribe the drug)
That's how I feel about love
(Try to sleep)
(Breathe, try to sleep)
(You're not dead)

My goal was
To make you happy at your best
you'd noticed all of this meaningless
I destroy you
Even through
The only things that I have left for your
Condescending eyes looking at each others
White lies my heart ache is useless
So quickly we'll address the shadows Running from light
You take this breath
Denying what is left of us

(Crying)
(Crying under pressure)
(Crying)
(Pressure)
Bless this cold
(Crying)
(Crying under pressure)
(Pressure)
(Crying)
(Pressure)
(Crying under pressure)
(Crying)
(Crying under)
(Under pressure)
If you could just wake up tonight
I'd be with you under the sky with you tonight

-my heart ache is useless-

I agree with Alex beneath me completely. And not enough people realize that this album is still to this day one of their bests. A masterpiece that society will never truly appreciate fully.

Jeff Bell This album is like if Alexisonfire fans didn’t appreciate their self-titled album. Total waste.

"Burning Down The Nitotine Armoire"

Johnny is cool and all but damn that is a stupid haircut lol

Burning Down the Nitotine Armoire?

Really Rise?

Wish Dgd was still like this. Tilan sucks lmao.

Cindi Yadao Nah

fuckin love them!!

My favorite album

The demo version of this song is 1000x better.

Gia Jaymes hold on there’s demo versions of these songs? fuck me.

RIP AUGUST AMES

0:13 one direction?

2:53 fits perfect to the tone of the ending of part 2

Craig named the band. Never forget craig. Never forget... #WWJCD

I don't hear Jon saying "and we continue to breathe." I can make out the rest of the screaming lyrics but that just doesn't sound right to me. Are those official lyrics on the video?

Yeah I'm trying to figure out what he's saying too it doesn't sound right sounds like, it's grabbed us by the throat, tried to breath, tried to change, breath

The original line up is the best. No doubt.

People don't know good music only 200k views people are stupid as fuc linkin park is garbage compaired to this

This song belongs in a museum

Patrimonium of humanity.

brax10808 yea because its ancient now lmao amazing song though

A library?

Okay Ezreal

hahahaha I agree

this song is so beautiful i literally teared up explains my sitch exactly wow i never new 16 year old me was so deep haha

ill be with you under this sky , with you tonight

Spell icup Ni🅱🅱a

if they repeated the part from 9 seconds to 29 seconds, and used it after the part at 2:27 to 2:40, before they get all crashy again, this would be a fantastic song. its a good song, but it could be way better. someone should remix it somehow

Come on man, people that play bass need their solos too lol

This is some of Jonnys and DGDs best work .

and they would follow you home)

One of my favorite displays of Jonny's vocal talent. Like hot damn, the scene must've went wild when this album dropped.

Man Whore silent bruh, DBM had them all over MySpace. Easily over 20 million plays on their stuff back then.

This IS "Dance Gavin Dance". After Kurt joined, and then after Tilian joined, they should've renamed the band to "Still Dance Gavin Dance but like... its some new shit"

jigyoda. No it's not

Get over yourself

If a band doesn't change their sound a little bit with each album, they will never get anywhere. Ever. Listening to a band that always sounds the same gets old, fast.

That's like saying Green Day should've changed their name from the album Warning and going forward. It makes no sense to say that, Warning was a drastic change while keeping their song writing style and then Shenanigans/American Idiot brought the pop-punk back a bit while maintaining that initial change with each album release thereafter, and that boosted their career into being one of the most successful bands in music history. If they kept making the same 90's album over and over again, they'd have died quickly.

Same evolution goes for Dance Gavin Dance - DBM refined their sound, Kurt's albums gave them a change of pace, DBM2 was their return to original sound but it was honestly an amazing mistake [amazing because the album IS amazing, but the band was literally on the verge of breaking up because they weren't moving forward either, they weren't changing enough for anyone to care about them except for the diehard fans]. Luckily, they found Tilian who brought a new change of sound and inspiration that brought them back from the brink of a break up. And now they are at their most successful point in their career, ever.

A band evolves over time, particularly, SUCCESSFUL bands, and a band changing it's name is a stupid fuckin' idea when your name has established who you are in the music scene - the only reason to change it is if there isn't a single original member in the lineup and the music is a totally different genre at that point.

Another great example [since most people hate on Greenday], is Thrice. Their first album versus they're latest; if it was for the singer's iconic voice and the guitarist's style, you probably wouldn't recognize them. But that sonic difference was a slow transition over a 9 albums.... if they stayed as metalcore, they'd have died along with Funeral For A Friend years ago.

Sit Gavin sit

Dance Tilian Dance

This and the Robot With Human Hair Part 1 are still the best.

I like Robot pt.2 more

@Bunku Part 2 is good, too.

will never never never never get over this album

Jon fucking Mess, Will fucking Swan and Matt fucking Mingus. Gods among men.

dance Gavin dance was Johnny Craig, dude kills it.

FUCKING FEELING ITT

Absolutely love this band during this time. This song relates to what I'm going thru right now and speaks right thru my soul. The lyrics are pure poetry.

Absolutely know what you mean. Going to see them today, so excited.

Still amazing

olympics 2016

Best of Johnnys vocals on this album 10/10 perfect

For me, the best DGD era.

sacramento is the shit

Brasil 2006

como assim? hahahahah

4.23 melts me every time!

what i dont want to dance

This album is what soul vibrations would sound like.

I have this songs title tattooed discreetly on my chest as I love it and it represents a time in my life
But I fucking hate having to explain what it means everytime I take my shirt off haha

31 psychopaths have watched this video

One hell of a way to burst onto the scene, granted this band's sound has almost completely changed from this they have failed to put out a terrible album thus far, too talented for their own fucking good

Seriously. I can listen to their entire discography without feeling the need to skip a single track!

Especially Craig...shame what fame did to him

Okay. We get it guys. Jonny is great. But holy fuck. Matt Mingus (the drummer) was only 15 or 16 when this was recorded. What pure talent. And the screamer Jon Mess? The way he makes the lyrics to pt. 2 relate with this is pure art. Get off Jonny's dick and appreciate the other 5 dudes who helped make this great music. Eric Lodge on bass. Will Swan on guitar. Jonny is my favorite singer, but he is not what makes this band. Fucking A. xD

+Shilo Murphy duuuuuuuuuuuuuuude matt is my favorite drummer of all time. its insane how intricate his parts are.

Swan, Mingus, and Mess are like the backbone of this band or something.

Shilo Murphy take this W

Technically craig did name the band so... he did make it lol

I mean they're all wonderful but the appeal totally went away when Jonny left imo he tied it all together and now its just chaos

RA CHA CHAAAA
RA CHA CHAAAAA
RA CHA CHAAAAAA
please tel me im not the only one who thinks this when he's screaming half the time

+veronika vega BOOM DIGGA DIGGA DIGGA BWOM WWOM WWOM WWOMPPPPPP

lmaooooo I'm fucking dying

Lmfaoo whyyyyy
Got that in my head now , it's all i can hear lmao

hahahahhaha wtf now when I listen to his voice I remember it. fuck lol

if you could just wake up tonight

honestly, I want to see more comments about how amazing the drummer is.

+rece1234 and to think he was only 15 at the time

Seriously. Matt is a legend. He deserves so much more recognition.

I know your comment is over 2 years old but he was actually 16 (17 when it was released)

i feel like everyone in the band was at their peak

I personally don't give a fuck if Jonny is a shitty dude. He has the best cleans of all time in my opinion. He could rip off fans for millions of dollars and I honestly won't give a shit as long as he puts out more music.

@The Logician You preach about opinion, but shun it. That makes sense.
If you're going to be contradictory, don't say anything.

You offer an opinion on my comment and I nicely tell you I disagree and that each person is his own person and can like what he wants yet you still persist. Your opinion doesn't matter to me in the same way mine doesn't matter to you. Please don't argue with me just for the sake of arguing. You are entitled to like what you like and so am I. I do shun your opinion because I disagree with it but it isnt like that means I'm telling you not to have it. Come on man this is so irrelevant to either of our lives.

@The Logician
You're right. I'm sorry.

It is a shitty thing to say, but yeah, I listen to Craig all the time still. It is a damn shame he did what he did.

"Burning Down The Nitotine Armoire"......?

4:20-4:50 just make this song great

+Gabrielle Davis i dint even click. I just knew what part you were talking about. chills every time.

I disagree. 0:00 to 5:48 make this song great. XD

+Gabrielle Davis its definitely the climax but the whole song is amazing.

So deep. Love this album & Jonny Craig.<3

Some songs I can't tell who's who. I usually stick with the good ol' instincts and I'm usually on point. Jonny gotta scratch but strength to his voice. Both are equally as beast tho

are you tone deaf? huge difference in vibrato and pitch

+Mace naw im not tone deaf just couldn't tell the difference before. and vibrato huh?? wow alright

@Aaron Alcaraz idk man it just bothers me as a vocalist when people can't make the distinction. It's worse in that side project he did with Isles and Glaciers, some people just can't tell. It's like equating a Big Mac to a steakhouse burger.

nah its was just difficult to determine before. I thought tree village was jonny for some reason for the longest then I figured the different tones like I said before Jonny sings stong. you can hear it in his voice

Probably the most epic DGD song

Easily the best song on this record.

Probably the best DGD album and one of the most overlooked.

Yes sir.  This then dbm1

+DarkOmen68 completely different era, difff time, different generation...

@Patrick Bateman id say heat seeking ghost of sex on battle mtn 2 takes the cake

Oh wait that's part 2 I was talking about I never noticed that

Easily one of the best albums ever recorded. Jonny is one of the best singers ever recorded. I don`t mind his Michael Jackson moments either. That's what gets him the pussy you virgins!!!

uh dude this isn't burning down the nicotine armoire, burning down the nicotine armoire  is off the self titled album and its not this one I don't know which one this is I wanna find out what song it is and put it on my phone immediately but its not burning down the nicotine armoire

The self titled album has Burning Down the Nicotine Armoire pt. 2

yeah I realized that 10 minutes after I posted that lol

Garrett McMillen wrong

excuse me, who sings? kurt travis or jonny craig?

@winter kurt travis had a ginger mullet 

obviously its jonny lol kurt looks like a doughboy

+XxDogaxX RedStar No. Jonny is in the pictures.

Thanks ^^

LeaXxDoGa just look at this haha
dgd clean vocalist time line

2006-2008- Johnny Craig

That pop vocal part blew it for me. Ew

u look like an egg

I suppose, this still blows so its whatever. what a great way to "offend"

Top ten anime showdowns
*fight*

The songs over, but I dont want to stop listening :/.

Johnny <3

Jonny* <3

Yeah, I've kinda know how to spell his name now. Thank you tho!

Will always be my favorite.

This is and will always be my favourite band of all time regardless of vocalist.

Sk8erfroggy2 I would 100% prefer Johnny or Kurt over tillian... but I’ll take what I can get.

I'm glad somebody feels the same way!

All time favorite song

Too shy to know your worth
