Sharks and Danger Lyrics


St. Catharine's Psychiatric Help Line, this is NancyI'm sure this is all gonna sound really ridiculous
And I don't exactly expect anyone to believe all this
For after a while I've been kinda keeping
Correspondence with my sanityAnd I really get the feeling that Im starting
To lose interest in the letter writing process
The pieces of the letters
They just get progressively shorter and shorter
Until its not even a replyI, the whole thing makes me really nervous
I just wish I could show you
What a huge problem this isAs life hangs beside me
I gather all that I can
You were never one for confrontation
But now it lies all in your handsI kind of have this really terrible habit of
Asking myself all these stupid questions right?
Like what if, what if there's a spot on my body
That I can touch to keep my heart from beating?Or like what if, what if theres this stray bullet
Out there thats gonna come through my window
And take me out?Like what if, what if theres this huge unstoppable comet

Thats just gonna like, destroy the earth and all of us?
Like what, what if thats happening right now?
Like how can I avoid all these questions if I don't have that?Like, who is gonna be here? Why?
Who is gonna be there in the hospital?
Who is gonna tell me that all this is bullshit?
It's a dream, just a dream
This is not a joke and I'll never sleepWho will be there to
Tell me how stupid I am
Who will be there to
Tell me how stupid I amWho will be there to
Tell me how stupid I am
Who will be there to
Tell me how stupid I amWho will keep me from lashing out?
(Lashing out)
Anxiety chokes me like razor wire
(Razor wire)Who will keep me from lashing out?
(Lashing out)
Anxiety chokes me like razor wire
(Razor wire)Now it's all in your hands, it now ends
Now it's all in your hands, it now ends
Now it's all in your hands, it now ends
Now it's all in your hands, it now endsAnxiety chokes me like razor wire
Anxiety chokes me like razor wireRazor wire
Razor wire
Razor wire
Razor wireRazor wire
Razor wire
Razor wire
Razor wire

Alexisonfire (pronounced 'alexis-on-fire') was a band from St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada. Their music was characterized by turbulent and explosive dynamics with intricate guitar melodies. Consisting of five friends, they formed in late 2001 as the result of a three-band break up. In August 2011, it was announced on their website that they had broken up as members expressed interests in other projects.

The band’s name is inspired by a lactating contortionist stripper named Alexis Fire. This caused problems when she discovered that they were using her website name (alexisonfire.com) as their band name, and threatened to sue. However, since she had never trademarked the title nothing became of these threats. In the end, the band decided to change their website’s URL in spite to theonlybandever.com

Alexisonfire’s lyrical topics range from relationship troubles to go-karting. They have two primary vocalists, screaming duties carried out by George Pettit, and singing by Dallas Green, with support from Wade MacNeil.

While their largest fanbase was in their home country of Canada, they also became more popular in other parts of the world, including Japan, Australia, Europe and the US. In the second half of 2010, they toured Australia with Break Even, Europe with Chickenhawk and The Computers and then Canada with Norma Jean and La Dispute.

The band was nominated for "ugliest rock band ever" at the CASBY awards (held by local Toronto radio station) but lost out to another Canadian born band, Sum 41. In 2010 they then won the "Best New Single" Award for their track The Northern.
