Took It Away Lyrics

Five pretty boys for ten shitty years
Five girls next door, I'm up to my ears
I need a reaction, a new revolution
All over the country but they took it awayTook it away, it can't be impossible
Playing the records that they play in hospital
Radio playlist for terminally ill
You can't tell they're miming when you're over the hillAnd it goes on
(On, and on, and on)
It goes on, yeah
(On, and on, and on)And if you put it like that
You'll be dead some day
Set the record straight
They took it all awayThey took it away and left us with nothing
Second-hand hits and a million misses
And nobody means it, they're making up stories
You gotta blame someone, you can't blame the 'toriesI blame myself, I want an easy life
Does it really matter? Ain't worth no suicide
The bigger they come, the harder they fall

I'm kicking myself for wasting it allIt goes on
(On, and on, and on)
It goes on, yeah
(On, and on, and on)And if you put it like that
You'll be dead some day
Set the record straight
Took it all awayThey took it away and left us with nothing
You suffer the pain of your fingers burning
Took it away and left us with nothing
You suffer the pain of your fingers burningTook it away and left us with nothing
Suffer the pain of your fingers burning
Took it away and left us with nothing
Suffer the pain of your fingers burningTook it away and left us with nothing
Suffer the pain of your fingers burning
Took it away and left us with nothingAnd if you put it like that
You'll be dead some day
Set the record straight
Took it all away

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

A

There is more than one artist with this name:

1) A is a British alternative rock band.
2) A [エース] is a Japanese visual rock band

British alternative rock band:
They formed in 1995 in Suffolk, England. The original line up was the three brothers: Jason Perry (Vocals), Adam Perry (Drums) and Giles Perry (Keyboard), with two friends Mark Chapman (Guitar) and Steve Swindon (Bass). Swindon quit the band in 1997 and was replaced by Daniel P. Carter.

After changing their name from 'Grand Designs' and abandoning their early progressive-inspired sound for a more punky feel, they released their début album "How Ace Are Buildings" in 1997.

The second album; "A vs. Monkey Kong", followed in 1999. Monkey Kong was a more poppy record than How Ace Are Buildings and the band toured the world, played festivals and enjoyed a small degree of success worldwide, especially in Germany.
Hi-Fi Serious was their third album, released in 2002. It was preceded by their biggest single to date, "Nothing", which saw the band reach the UK top ten for the first time, eventually hitting number 9. Starbucks was also a top 20 hit, named after the coffee chain.

The tour following Hi-Fi Serious saw the band playing their largest venues to date, headlining the 5000 capacity Brixton Academy as part of the Inner-City Sumo Tour. 'A' finally released their fourth album on June 27th 2005, entitled "Teen Dance Ordinance". The album had been recorded 2 years earlier, but due to Jason Perry's illness and record company squabbles its release was heavily delayed, by which time the group's following appears to be a mere cult once again. In 2006, Warner dropped 'A' from their record label, citing poor sales.

'A' then went on hiatus from 2006-2008, but have now returned, playing a few shows supporting The Wildhearts. They will be writing new material and hope to release an album in 2009. With this new era for the band the lineup has changed with bassist Daniel P. Carter not returning to the band and has been replaced by John Mitchell of It Bites.

The bands official website, A-Communication.com, has been shut down. A substitute forum has been setup by the fans and can be found at A-Communication.co.uk

Japanese visual rock band :
consisting of Shin-ichi on vocals, Seiya on bass, U-SUKE and MORI on guitar, and Tōki on drums.
