Avondale - Lyrics - Yellowcard

Yellowcard is an American pop punk alternative rock band formed in Jacksonville, Florida, in 1997 and based in Los Angeles since 2000. Their music features the use of a violin, which brings a melodic element to the genre. They are best known for their singles "Ocean Avenue", "Lights and Sounds", and "Light Up the Sky". The band went on a two-year hiatus from 2008 through 2010 and they returned with their seventh studio album, When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes, in March 2011, and then Southern Air in August 2012. Their most recent album, Lift a Sail, was released October 7th, 2014, with lead single "One Bedroom."

If you're gonna rip my heart out, Could you use a knife that's dull and rust in color. (Once I die) there will be no way that you can cover, That scar. It's hard. I know. And if I get a little blood on you, Finally the world will know you're guilty, (Know you're wrong) Of taking everything you've gotten from me No heart, its hard. I know. Mighty king of Avondale I just can't let this go. Real life ain't no fairy tale I just thought you should know. When you're finished with the surgery I really hope that you will turn to me And tell me all about the fun you had When you were cutting up, you were cutting up. Mighty king of Avondale I just can't let this go. Real life ain't no fairy tale I just thought you should know. Living like a fairy tale the Mighty king of Avondale It all went to his head, this royalty. I stuck a knife into his back. Inventiveness is what I lack. He's always hanging up on loyalty. Mighty king of Avondale I just can't let this go Real life ain't no fairy tale I just thought you should know.
