Best song of 2003?
What do you guys think?

It's been a crazy ass year. I am biased but I have a tie. (b/t the bolds)

311 "Other Side of Things"
Houston we have a problem
all this TV has made us dumb
anxious is what we've become
too much prozac in our systems
it's our mental condition
it's our mental condition
one thing lacks is education
institutions fuck with our

Emotions are elastic
they stretch out and back
stretch out and back
sometimes they just snap
they don't go back
they never go back

What if it were true
that you weren't so blue
and you felt like you
could just do anything
but we're facing the sunset
and for a moment it
looks like it's rising
and we are on the other side of things

There's no procrastination maybe I should do it get to it straight
I see people wasting time with so much pointless debate
I can't wait for the over analytical politically correct
Upset by threats to the national mindset
I bet we'd let reverse psychology mob mentality over our ecology
A college we could learn but we usually we burn and then we waste it
Taste it time and time again it's time to take your medicine
Emotions are elastic
they stretch out and back
stretch out and back
sometimes they just snap
they don't go back
they never go back

What if it were true
that you weren't so blue
and you felt like you
could just do anything
but we're facing the sunset
and for a moment it
looks like it's rising
and we are on the other side of things

<bridge>

What if it were true
that you weren't so blue
and you felt like you
could just do anything
but we're facing the sunset
and for a moment it
looks like it's rising
and we are on the other side of things
side of things




Zebrahead "Alone
I broke down on a Japanese street
Words unsaid they scar so deep
Bullshit, Palanuik both make me choke
Too much JD too much coke
She says speed up I want to go faster
She holds on but I outlast her
Build it up but what does that matter
We can build it up but we always watch it shatter
Get up the house is on fire Get up I want to get higher
Get up you mother fucking liar
You make me feel alone
I burned out in Shibuya station
Lost all my friends hazard occupation
Manic Compression like quicksand slip
Ate too many mushrooms I'm gonna be sick
She says slow down you're going through the motions
I start to crash like a plane in the ocean
Build it up but what does that matter
When the shit goes down we all fucking scatter
Repeat Chorus
I never said I wanted to try
Never said I wanted to live this lie
All you said was good-bye
All I ever said was to get me out of here
I focus on the flame
Set it off
Wasted what a shame
Set it off
Focus on the flame
Set it off
We were once the same
Repeat Chorus

note about the song:

Scott Lucas joked in an interview that the song was them "imagining what it would be like to have Macaulay Culkin as President, little did we know, we'd end up with Macaulay Culkin as president" (not an exact quote)
