Yellowcard is een rockband uit Jacksonville, die werd opgericht in 1997. Hun muziek wordt vooral ingedeeld in Pop punk of alternatieve Rock. De muziek van Yellowcard is zo uniek doordat ze een viool gebruiken.
Geschiedenis
Yellowcard werd in 1997 opgericht op de Douglas Anderson School of the Arts, de band bestond toen uit 6 leden: Ben Dobson (zang) Todd Clarry (zang en gitaar) Ben Harper (gitaar) Sean Mackin (viool, achtergrond zang) Warren Cooke (basgitaar) Longineu W. Parsons III (drums).
Yellowcard kreeg hun naam doordat ze, als één van hen iets stoms deed op een feestje, zoals een glas laten vallen, diegene een gele kaart gaven zoals in voetbal. Aan het begin van hun carrière was er verwarring over hoe je de naam moest schrijven (Yellowcard of Yellow Card), de band maakte toen bekend dat het Yellowcard was.
Yellowcard's grote doorbraak kwam met het de single Ocean Avenue van het gelijknamige album. Daarvoor hadden ze maar weinig succes met albums.

Don't know What I was looking for when I went home I found me alone And sometimes I need someone to say "You'll be alright; What's on your mind?"
But the water's shallow here And I am full of fear And empty-handed after two long years
Another sunny day in Californ-i-a I'm sure back home they'd love to see it But they don't know that what you love is ripped away Before you get a chance to feel it
Back home I always thought I wanted so much more Now I'm not too sure Cuz sometimes I miss knowing someone's there for me And feeling free
Free to stand beside The ocean in moonlight And light myself a smoke beneath the dark Atlantic sky
Another sunny day in Californ-i-a I'm sure back home they'd love to see it But they don't know that what you love is ripped away Before you get a chance Before you get a chance to feel it
Everybody here is living life in fear of falling out of line Tearing lives apart, breaking lots of hearts just to pass the time And the eyes get red in the back of your head This place will make you blind Put it all behind me and I'll be just fine
Another sunny day beneath this cloudless sky Sometimes I wish that it would rain here And wash away the West Coast dreaming from my eyes There's nothing real for them to see here
Another starry night in Californ-i-a I'm sure back home they'd love to see it But they don't know that what you love is ripped away Before you get a chance Before you get a chance to feel it
I think i'm breaking out I'm gonna leave you now There's nothing for me here It's all the same And even though I know That everything might go Go down hill from here I'm not afraid
Way Away away from here i'll be Way Away away so you can see How it feels to be alone and not believed (feels to be alone and not believed) Feels to be alone and not believed ANYTHING!
You can't stop me now You can't hold me down You can't keep me here I'm on my way I made it this far now And i'm not burnin' out No matter what you say I'm not afraid
Way Away away from here i'll be Way Away away so you can see How it feels to be alone and not believed (feels to be alone and not believed) Feels to be alone and not believed ANYTHING!
Letting out the noise inside of me (Letting out the noise inside of me) Every wings are paid in shadow ray (Every wings are paid in shadow ray) Cutting up my words before i speak (Cutting up my words) This is how it feels to not believed
Letting out the noise inside of me (Letting out the noise inside of me) Every wings are paid in shadow ray (Every wings are paid in shadow ray) Cutting up my words before i speak (Cutting up my words) This is how it feels to not believed
Way Away away from here i'll be Way Away away so you can see How it feels to be alone and not believed (feels to be alone and not believed) Feels to be alone and not believed ANYTHING!
LUISTER OOK NAAR DEZE SUPERSONG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (via onderstaande link)
There's a place of Ocean Avenue Where I used to sit and talk with you We were both 16 and it felt so right Sleepin' all day stayin' up all night Stayin' up all night
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street Where we'd walk on the beach in our bare feet We were both 18 and it felt so right Sleepin' all day stayin' up all night Stayin' up all night
If I could find you now things would get better We could leave this town and run forever Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
There's a piece of you that's here with me It's every where I go it's everything I see And when I sleep I dream and it gets me by And I can make believe that you're here tonight That you're here tonight
If I could find you now things would get better We could leave this town and run forever I know somewhere somehow we'll be together Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
I remember the look in your eyes When I told you that this was goodbye You were beggin' me not tonight not here not now We're lookin' up at the same night sky Keep pretending the sun will not rise We'll be together for one more night Somewhere somehow
If I could find you know things would get better We could leave this town and run forever I know somewhere somehow we'll be together Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
BELUISTER DEZE SUPERSONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Kids singing:] Let's burn a hole, so we can climb out. Of these paper walls, and this empty house. Don't listen too close, they're words are like guns. With bullets that fly and kill what you've won..
Let's burn a hole, so we can climb out. Of these paper walls, and this empty house.
We're the only thing that's real.
These visions we have of ten years ago, Of stars in the sky and us down below. In streets and east coast lines, We kept this scene alive.
Here I am, still hold on to this, Dream we had, won't let go of it, Hear me now, you will never be alone..
Don't listen too close, they're words are like guns. With bullets that fly and kill what you've won. Some love to hate, and some tell you lies. So lets make a toast, and kiss them goodbye..
We'll kiss them all goodbye..
Here I am, still hold on to this, Dream we had, won't let go of it, Hear me now, you will never be alone..
Here I stand, won't turn back again. Won't leave you, know how hard it's been Hear me now, you will never be alone..
Let's take what hurts, and write it all down. On these paper walls, and this empty house. And when our ink runs out, we'll burn it to the ground..
Here I am, still hold on to this Dream we had, won't let go of it, Hear me now, you will never be alone..
Here I stand, won't turn back again. Won't leave you, know how hard it's been Hear me now, you will never be alone..
Yeah..

Mary belongs, to the words of a song, I try to be strong for her, Try not the be wrong for her, But she will not wait for me, anymore, anymore, Why did I say all those things before, I was sure,
(She is the one) But I have a purpose, (She is the one) And I have to fight this, (She is the one) A villain I can't knock down,
I see your face with every punch I take, And every bone I break, it's all for you, And my worst pains are words I cannot say, Still, I will always fight on for you,
Mary's a light, in the bright New York-sky, A city light shines for her, above they might cry for her, Everythings small on the ground below, down below, what if I fall than where would I go, would she know?
(She is the one) All that I wanted, (She is the one) And I will be haunted, (She is the one) This gift is my curse for now,
I see your face with every punch I take, And every bone I break, it's all for you, And my worst pains are words I cannot say, Still, I will always fight on for you,
I see your face with every punch I take, And every bone I break, it's all for you, And my worst pains are words I cannot say, Still, I will always fight on for you,
