I really love blasting this song on my stereo and singing to it, it just feels so exhilarating. Taking Back Sunday, one of my favorite bands ever. Released as the first single from their third album, "Louder Now," "MakeDamnSure" was released to radio on March 14, 2006. It has experienced much more success than the band's other singles on the Billboard Hot 100 and Alternative Songs chart. It is their most successful single to date, peaking at #48 on the Hot 100 and #8 on the Alternative charts. This song is ranked at #52 on Rolling Stone's "The 100 Best Songs of 2006". LYRICS [Verse 1] You've got this new head filled up with smoke And I've got my veins all tangled close To those jukebox bars you frequent The safest place to hide A long night spent with your most obvious weakness, you start shaking at the thought You are everything I want 'Cause you are everything I'm not [Pre-Chorus] And we lay, we lay together Just not too close, too close (How close is close enough?) And we lay, we lay together Just not too close, too close [Chorus] I just wanna break you down so badly Well I trip over everything you say I just wanna break you down so badly In the worst way [Verse 2] My inarticulate store-bought hangover hobby kit it talks And it says "You, oh, you are so cool"' Scissor-shaped across the bed You are red, violent red You hollow out my hungry eyes You hollow out my hungry eyes [Pre-Chorus] And we lay, we lay together Just not too close, too close (How close is close enough?) And we lay, we lay together Just not too close, too close [Chorus] I just wanna break you down so badly Well I trip over everything you say I just wanna break you down so badly In the worst way I just wanna break you down so badly Well I trip over everything you say I just wanna break you down so badly In the worst way Worst way [Bridge] I'm gonna make damn sure That you can't ever leave No, you won't ever get too far from me You won't ever get too far from me I'll make damn sure That you can't ever leave No, you won't ever get too far from me You won't ever get too far from me You won't ever get too far from me (Ever get too far) You won't ever get too far [Chorus] I just wanna break you down so badly Well I trip over everything you say Well I just wanna break you down so badly In the worst way Worst way [Outro] I'm gonna make damn sure I just wanna break you down so badly I just wanna break you down so badly (Down so) In the worst way Worst way

@@oaky5803 the music itself isn't considered "emo", but in early 2000, average emo kids listened to punk/emo/screamo music, hence the emo hair of these bands members.
