Tag: Every Time I Die

Letra & VideoClip Oficial da Musica:
Am I the only one that saw the sun burn out?
The locusts keep their rhythm
My watch is broken down

I wake up and take on water
Sink to the peak of despair
What I need is a cigarette

No more prayers. The planets unaligned
We are saints without a shrine
A storm comes and the city’s abandoned
The ship is going down with the captain

I am the man that sank atlantis
The bottom is not the lowest we get
Further down still the dark’s absolute
Further down than that, it’s only me and you

I assure you that hell is not a myth
We both vacation there
Hell is not a myth
We spend each winter there
No one can prepare

A storm comes and the city’s abandoned
The ship is going down with the captain

I am the man that sank atlantis
The bottom is not the lowest we get
I thought I knew the best part of the secret
The truth is the thing we forget

The glory I had witnessed was just a sleight of hand
These hearts cannot be salvaged
These bones cannot withstand
I have either been forgotten or I was never seen
Now I’m in the negative space between

I’ve weighed down the earth
Through the stars to the pavement
I’ve weighed down the earth
No use trying to save it

I’ve weighed down the earth
Through the stars to the pavement
I’ve weighed down the earth
Not sure I can take it

I’ve fallen out of frame
A strangled, distant flame
Clenched in the jaws of anguish are only godless men
Chaos is drawn to silence like life is drawn to death

The dusk is so much clearer
Than the dawn had ever been
I’m a ghost, and yet I’ve weighed down the earth
Through the stars to the pavement
I’ve weighed down the earth
No use trying to save it

Letra & VideoClip Oficial da Musica:
Melt the glaciers inside my veins
Thaw my eyes, crack the glaze
Trapped under ice at a fathomless depth
But I know I exist I can see my breath

Come up to the surface, the ice age has past
Hallelujah it is over at last
A new day will follow a nuclear blast
Hallelujah it is over at last

Crossed the great divide to sleep
Where most would die

I’m on the lam for a fire theft
I wasn’t here, we never met

Our shadows spread forever
But they don’t weigh anything

Shake it off
I can’t ever go back but I will take it when I leave
Shake it off
I’ll be waiting with a suitcase
When the devil comes for me
Shake it off
One if by land, two if by sea

Life isn’t ours, we are property of life
Take what you can when you can while you can
Stare at the sun. Look directly into the sun
It’s over at last

Letra & VideoClip Oficial da Musica:
I can’t continue on without a sign
One wing to haul the weight of only one third of an eye
The voice I’m leaning into has been thrown
When all the meat is stripped away I’m chewing on the bone

I’m condemned until the moment I forget
That I haven’t learned a goddamn thing yet
My soul is sticking out like a talon through a shell
You can wait until the rapture I will hightail it to hell

Water everywhere but no water fit to drink
I’ve got endless proof and I don’t know what to think
Nothing but time, not a minute left to spare
Gallons of fuel I can’t get anywhere

When all I am is a stone that says
The name I had and the years that I had been
The quiet depths and the measured steps
Won’t echo like the shriek of riot did

Sever the anchor you drag or be frozen at the stake
Choke down all the prey in your path
Before you become the prey
No one likes a company man
Nothing but a snake

Look at my war it’s the prettiest thing alive
I traded it for sanity now all you see is mine
Open the throttle, feel the thunder in the sails
Pick up the scent of fear and follow the trail

When all I am is a stone that says
The name I had and the years that I had been
The quiet depths and the measured steps
Won’t echo like the shriek of riot did

I can’t move the dredge without heat
Stillwater of a puddle and the ocean never meet
I’ve wandered off a path into a storm
A trance into a fury, a mantra for a sword

Doomed until I recall how to fire up an engine that has stalled
I would trade what I have lost for the things that I have left
Some clarity just to see darkness best?
My flower in your barrel hasn’t stopped the slaughter yet

So spent, we can’t be saved
We lost sleep but we found our way
Sharpen your axe against the road
Don’t hold out hope

Such courage pulls us down. We ride on

Our songs refuse a grave
These beating hearts make violent waves
Push the pedal right through the floor
Want so much more

When all I am is a stone that says
The name I had and the years that I had been
The quiet depths and the measured steps
Won’t echo like the shriek of riot did

Letra & VideoClip Oficial da Musica:
Explosion from the bottom of a well
Thin walls harsh winds
I tried to tap a deeper, brighter vein
But I’m back in old skin again

Pale stone
I am out of blood
Left in the chapel by a thousand other things
I could’ve loved but barely touched

We used to talk to God with acid on our tongues
We were divine when we were drunk
Before the world put out the fire and fed us crumbs

Chasing bended light, I went missing on the roads
That wind through the corners of your eyes

Barbarians. Guard yourself with laughter
Numb the meaning with the word
Barbarians. We tamper with a down machine
But know it cannot work
Barbarians

We had such promise until we broke our promises

Why can’t it be the year two thousand?
I want to live in the year two thousand
When I was dumb enough to truly believe

Why can’t it be the year two thousand?
I want to live in the year two thousand
When having nothing meant having everything

No one is taking my calls anymore
I can never get through
Acknowledge me you motherfuckers
I am cold and I’m blue

You savages. Barbarians

Letra & VideoClip Oficial da Musica:
I have widowed every woman
From the waitress to the queen
Been in and out of wedlocks with an exoskeleton key
I may perish unwept but at least I’ll never swing

I ain’t in your crystal ball

You won’t remember me but you’ll remember our song
You got premonitions, talked to spirits, they approved
That just might mean you’re lying or them spirits lied to you
Nothing more is perfect, yeah, but nothing less will do

I ain’t in your crystal ball

You looked at what the light shined on
Not where it’s shining from, didn’t you?
You find what you need only when you need to find it
Yea, I did it too

I knew I was alive because I used to want to die but not anymore
Now I’m trying to be but old hearts won’t let me sleep
I hear them in the floor
Standing at the altar with your leather jacket on

Fucked up on some new pills
Got you feeling twenty-one
My friends are always pissed off
All your friends dance just for fun

I ain’t in your crystal ball

I won’t be here for that hangover
But I’ll come running to raise a glass
Where’d I get my nerve?
I thought you’d never ask

We clean the slate just to write mistakes
An old flame you can’t blow out
You filled the cup, you picked me up
Now you’ve got to put me down

Letra & VideoClip Oficial da Musica:
So long to young love I’ve anchored my heart
Farewell to small joys I’ve burned down the bar
I’m changing my name so I don’t do no harm
Some say it’s vanity, some say it’s charm

No levels, still the same old devils

Frightened of fear, a servant of time
Kidnapped the queen, I have angered the hive
Snuffed out the star with celestial winds
Ended a cycle that started again

I stopped going out, they kept coming in
Was I saving my soul are saving my skin?

No levels, still the same old devils

Can’t hold it close, can’t let it go
Prisons in basements in slick model homes

I’m just a day-tripper on sacred terrain
My transformation went from mangled to tame
I don’t feel different but I don’t feel the same
I’m afloat with an ear to the ground

I built a fortress with some books and a phrase
I felt some heat so I came out of the haze
I saw the end and I was truly afraid
I have begged but I’m still not allowed

It’s a trap
Lay the bait, catch the rat

Flew home and left the unknown in the lurch
Kept finding bodies, I called off the search
Went to a hymn from a funeral dirge
Church in the hospital, dog in the church

No levels, still the same old devils

Shepherd me back
This time I know I don’t know nothing
I’m not in control

Mindful but gutless
There’s no need to panic

Letra & VideoClip Oficial da Musica:
Though it may haunt us
And break our hearts
Death cannot tear us apart

I’ll wait for an omen
A sign that I’m chosen
Then I’ll crack that reaper safe with my bare hands
A trespass
My horror was holy
When I robbed two early graves I was sick with grief
Bruised deep
The desert was lonely
I either took a leap of faith or I jumped ship
I admit I offered my only just to crash those pearly gates
Hands up
Heaven’s been raided
Creator, created

I am sorry, it’s not right
But you are mine to sacrifice.
I was hopeless, I was tired
And we all kill to survive.
Sacrifice
Kill to survive

Though it may haunt us
And break our hearts
Death cannot tear us apart
