DevotedToYou Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 I've always thought it was "breaking"... So now I had to listen the song again and it definitely sounds "lonely".
manilla Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 i've been always singing here ''lazy'', i've never realized there's something else now i'm gonna shut my mouth and listen to check what are the real lyrics :lol:
GreenDay41 Posted February 8, 2011 Author Posted February 8, 2011 Haha I was listening to it again just now and I keep hearing either Breaking or Lonely... It sounds like a B AND an L every time -_- haha. It bugs me XD
Hermione Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 It's lonely. It says breaking in the booklet but they changed it by the time they actually recorded the song. I think the fact it says that in the booklet is the only reason for confusion over this because it SO CLEARLY says lonely if you listen to the song, there's really no question about it
Uva Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 i always think it is lonely.... looks like it's really "lonely")))
Rage & Love. Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Lonely. The song is about lonelyness. makes more sense.
Zelda Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 I've always heard lazy... Poor Billie...he writes such amazing songs and has a great voice, but we can't understand what the fuck he's saying half the time.
oda Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 can't somebody with rockband listen to the acapella version if thats possible?
koolkev Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Pretty sure it's lonely.... Mebbe? I've always heard lazy... Poor Billie...he writes such amazing songs and has a great voice, but we can't understand what the fuck he's saying half the time. What? Lol

I honestly hear lonely sometimes but then other times I hear something completely different haha.
Hermione Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 Haha unfortunately it's not that "CLEAR" to me D: .. I honestly hear lonely sometimes but then other times I hear something completely different haha. Well then clean your ears out haha . I'm on team lonely!
EvanAsFuck Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 Well on GD Rock Band it says "lonely" in the lyrics for vocals... I've personally always sayed "lazy" cause I think it rounds better and makes more sense, but I'm not sure what it actually is... EDIT: After listening to it closely, I now also think it's "lonely"
minority_defeats_majority Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 it sounds like lazy to me
-Billiejoezee- Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 This is why i wouldn't like to get on stage to sing longview... i wouldn't like saying the wrong thing.
ScatteredPictures Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 I really dont get how you guys can understand "breaking"
in_your_face Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 This is why i wouldn't like to get on stage to sing longview... i wouldn't like saying the wrong thing. I laughed my ass off at that. Same here. I'm sticking to the lyrics book. Most probably, it should be breaking. Maybe i'll listen to it one more time.

agrizotti Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 I just can't hear anything else other than "lazy"!
-Billiejoezee- Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 I just can't hear anything else other than "lazy"! that too.
heyohbilliejoe Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 i'm pretty certain it says lonely. loaded is a possibility which i didn't think of until today though. annd in BIAB you can't tell cos the crowd sings "and your fuckin' looogbhagbvalbafbgabfg..." It is definitly lonely. Im sure of it. also in the lyric but it says that in the last chorus he says "Im slipping away to paradise" but for the life of me I KNOW he says tripping away. Sorry to sound so over overzealous but it really always bugged me that the booklet was wrong. but yes. he DEFINITELY says tripping. you can especially hear it on BIABbillie always changes the lyrics too soooooo. my opinion - there is not answer to this.
solongfromthestars Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 I sing "breaking". That's what it says in the ISH lyric book, but I always thought it didn't particularly make sense and that Billie sang something else My friend thought it was "pervert"...
Katarina. Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 I always sing 'lonely'. I think that's right. Well actually I'm sure of it And what? Tripping? I've never heard that. I just always sing 'slipping away to paradise'. I'll pay more attention to that part then, now I might hear different things, haha.
