Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture That cool mate Average	#1 by That cool mate named Juan Carlos at Jun 9, 1970 at 7:23 PM EST
	I absolutely love this song! Its so powerful... the music, the words, everything. He is willing to do anything to ensure the person that he loves doesn't hurt anymore... wow, amazing

No Picture Th3Tempest Average	#2 by Th3Tempest at Nov 8, 1971 at 9:15 PM EST
	Its Neon Hurt. It's electric the neon hurt inside your phone call The layered sadness and the madness it revolves Bringing down the walls where you found her No http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/somethingcorporate/breakmyself.html

No Picture Natalie Average	#3 by Natalie at Feb 4, 1973 at 8:06 AM EST
	i thought it was the 'neon HURT inside your phone call'... and 'I'm willing to bleed for days MY reds and grays ' i must be way off

No Picture Justin Average	#4 by Justin Allen at Nov 23, 1975 at 11:57 PM EST
	Good health will be yours for a long time.

No Picture Tyler Wanna Be	#5 by Tyler Wood at Dec 22, 1976 at 8:16 PM EST
	i'm going to start out by saying i heart this song. especially this part: "never again will i fire this gun no never again you're the only one no never again but you're already gone" wow, beautiful

No Picture luke Rhythm Player	#6 by luke dont play bass with a pick! at Dec 24, 1977 at 12:00 AM EST
	This song is one of my favorites and it basically is about being in a place where you are unable to help anyone. So what would you do when you're so far away from someone who needs you, and you wanna be there but you can't? This song is beautiful.

No Picture ben Average	#7 by ben bell at Nov 20, 1979 at 7:03 AM EST
	This song is sooo good and so catchy! It will be stuck in my head for the rest of the day now but anyways, best part: I'm on fire And the day is feeling hopeless You'd see me burning but the burning's turning smokeless Soon I won't feel at all Best fuckin part. SC ownes!

No Picture Sir Stuff Professional	#8 by Sir Stuff at Feb 2, 1981 at 10:14 PM EST
	I get kind of a different vibe... I mean I agree with a lot of what has been said by everyone... I mean about being in a relationship where you want to help a person and be there for them but you cant for some reason, like you're too far away or something... I mean it makes sense to me... but in a way, I think that from the liner's point of view, he is talking (well, more or less singing...) about how he's in a relationship that is starting to fall apart, in a way, and that he doesn't want to hurt the other person involved and wishes he could protect the other person from any pain that will be caused... also... "Never again will we fire this gun No never again you're the only one No never again but you're already gone." this part of the song makes me think that he did something to hurt the other person, like cheat on her or something, and he regrets it and all the pain that it has caused her... and he is saying throughout the entire song that he is willing to do anything for her, basically... but at this part you see that he messed up and that she is gone for good because of what he did... does that make annny sense? well anyway, absolutely beautiful song... SoCo rocks... and the North album really shows how they have all grown up and junk... brilliant.

No Picture RANDOM Lead Player	#9 by RANDOM Doom at Mar 14, 1981 at 6:40 PM EST
	How could it be "neon HURT inside your phonecall" that doesn't even make sense..You hear out of a phone..So natuarally it woul dbe "heard" but I do agree it does kind of sound like hurt. But, it's not. Anyway, I love this song, and band. SOCO rocks! It's electric The neon heard inside your phone call The layered sadness and the madness it revolves Bringing down the walls where you found her No Awsome. Just awsome.

No Picture JO3H Average	#10 by JO3H 3VAN2 at May 23, 1981 at 8:42 AM EST
	its so kickass in its own little way . . . gotta love it.

No Picture Benjamin Average	#11 by Benjamin Nield at Dec 22, 1982 at 9:48 AM EST
	I dont know guys... i think this could actually be about suicide... and that hurting himself is the only way to keep himself from hurting her again... makes sence to me... kinda scary actully... but definetly more significant then just hurting himself... thats where "Never again will we fire this gun" comes into the meaning

No Picture Martin Lead Player	#12 by Martin Endara at Feb 8, 1983 at 5:40 AM EST
	"Well, I'm willing to break myself To shake this hell from everything I touch I'm willing to bleed for days more reds and grays So you don't hurt so much" He's willing to go to any lengths to make sure the other person isn't in pain. This song is really beautiful.

No Picture Sarah Average	#13 by Sarah Bates at Aug 8, 1983 at 10:52 AM EST
	i agree with socoyouknow.. i totally thing it's "neon HURT" for the exact reason she gave. i love this song.. because it explains someone's love for another without be sappy and totally obvious, you have to look a little deeper. i like that.

No Picture guido Average	#14 by guido at May 5, 1986 at 5:42 PM EST
	God.this song reminds me so badly of my ex.I broke up with him but he still really likes me.i just don't feel the same.i'd do anything to stop putting him through all this pain 'cos we're still really good mates.I told him to download this..... I love the line- Well, I'm willing to break myself To shake this hell from everything I touch but it basically reminds me of what i've caused

No Picture Chris Rhythm Player	#15 by Chris Marcoux at Jul 25, 1987 at 2:05 AM EST
	This song is TOTALLY about trying the best you can to succeed and doing everything in your power to make it happen but in the end constantly failing "Im learning that the further that I crawl, The farther that I fall, Is that ok? no" This is were I know what this song is about...the further that I crawl (the harder that I work), the farther that I fall (the more I fail).....I believe EVERY line in this song is just a bunch of metaphors meaning the same thing!! Listen to it carefully and you will see it too

No Picture Satan SAF! Rhythm Player	#16 by Satan SAF! Lucifer at Dec 5, 1989 at 1:43 PM EST
	i LOVE this song to death... i can relate to it so well, and yeah. it's amazing. correction though, it's "bringing down the walls where you found love" not "found her"

No Picture chris Average	#17 by chris - at Aug 24, 1990 at 4:00 AM EST
	To ma It's like you willing sacrafice yourself just to end what you did to hurt people.

No Picture *+♥+hazz Wanna Be	#18 by +♥+hazzy+♥+ at Jun 21, 1995 at 7:46 AM EST
	Andrew told me that he wrote it while he and Kelly were at a "weak point" from him being gone on tour.. hence.."You've got no shelter I'm a thousand miles away"

No Picture Tyler Average	#19 by Tyler Stewart at Jun 30, 1996 at 5:40 AM EST
	I think it is "neon HURT" I dont know for sure but neon lights are very visible and hes saying how obvious her hurt is in the phone call. "Neon HEARD" does not make sense at least from the way I look at it.

No Picture Randy Professional	#20 by Randy McKagan at Aug 5, 1996 at 5:39 PM EST

No Picture Chris Wanna Be	#21 by Chris Shaw at Sep 27, 1999 at 6:03 AM EST
	i dont want to hurt so much soco rules

No Picture Aaron Rhythm Player	#22 by Aaron Wagner at Feb 16, 2003 at 12:00 PM EST
	Sweet sweet song "To shake this hell from everything I touch" Heh, and who has never felt like that before. I definitely think this song is about loving someone who is self destructive, when you yourself are the same way-and nothing can cure either of you.

No Picture Ryan Wanna Be	#23 by Ryan Ell at Aug 15, 2003 at 10:22 PM EST
	i'm agreeing with comalies, it's about the willingness to do anything to relieve someone of their pain & hurt, but being in a situation where they can't do anything... or, anything they do is futile

No Picture [ash] Wanna Be	#24 by [ash] at Apr 2, 2006 at 3:08 PM EST
	this is such a beautiful song! i'm sort've repeating what others have said...but to me, this song is of a guy who is totally in love with some girl and will go to the end of the earth, just to have her and keep her happy. it has emotion without the sappy stuff. it's great!

No Picture Lance Average	#25 by Lance at Jan 19, 2007 at 3:13 AM EST
	this is one of their most amazing songs. Its so well written, so much truth that i think we can all relate too. Beautiful, something corporate never fails to amaze me.
