Epitaph

insides out
there never was a trace of doubt
but now i hear my stomach shout
it's calling me a liar
one last stab
now everything is up for grabs
this might just be my final stand
i'm living in denial
but i i i i i'm
def i i i iant
bring on your iron giants
darkness fade
the promises that i have made
require that the debt be paid
i have to force a smile
shades of gray
the facts that make it hard to say
that black is white but not today
a fear that fuels the fire
but i i i i i'm
def i i i iant
bring on your iron giants
they said the war was won
when the battle only just begun
but they only see
what they wanna see
wanna see
scared to laugh
i think i failed the polygraph
they're typing up my epitaph
i guess i must be dying
angels pray
for all that's made of blood and clay
but heaven seems so far away
for those of steel and wires
but i i i i i'm
def i i i iant
bring on your iron giants
they said the war was won
when the battle only just begun
but they only see
what they wanna see
they set your precious flag on fire
cause it doesn't seem to mean anything at all

Call To You
03:29

gone
on your own now
just let 'em say that your too proud
lost
all alone now
you're better off far from the crowd
chose a path that i could not follow
took the road as far as it traveled
and i
i called to you
but the world was in the way
i never thought i'd see the day
when i'd hear you say
i'm sorry i was in a rage
long
for your own song
just like fay wray for ol' king kong
chose a path that i could not follow
took the road as far as it traveled
and i
i called to you
but the world was in the way
i never thought i'd see the day
when i'd hear you say...

Eye For An Eye
04:29
|

long before the season
treason ruled the day
at the dawn
it was right there in the clay
judas loved his brother
killed him with a kiss
when he died
he cried
if it's an eye for an eye
we'd all get swept away
sell the kids their candy
shove down their throats
and in time
they'll be putting it up their nose
fill my cup with ashes
of all the burned up sighs
watch them rise
into the light
if it's an eye for an eye
we'd all get swept away
see them cast their stones
those in big glass homes
when it crumbles then the fault will be their own
see them cast their stones
those in big glass homes
then they'll say it's an eye for an eye
yeah they'll say it's an eye for an eye
measure me by moon beams
catch me in a jar
i will shine
all through your nights
if it's an eye for an eye
we'd all get swept away
if it's an eye for an eye
we'd all get swept away

Dinner with Andre
02:28
|

i heard a voice come from a field
there it told me something i had to hear
my minds a highway headed south
tried to speak but only blue little birds
flew out my mouth
ah ah ah ah ah ah
now she's talking in symbols
what a sweet waste of time
so good
somewhere hiding in the trees
lies the poetry of dancing bees
run and hide or face the fear
landing somewhere between pleasure and pain
laughter and tears
ah ah ah ah ah ah
now she's talking in symbols
what a sweet waste of time
so good
if this city is a cell
it's a prison that we built ourselves
we the inmates and the guards
hands chopped off by subway cars,
no back yards,
why?
ah ah ah ah ah ah
now she's talking in symbols
what a sweet waste of time
so good

Falling Down
04:02
|
|||
remember
all the days we had
but memories don't last
they're echoes of the past
and echoes fade away
desires
you don't understand
but with a heavy hand
you slowly lose command
and let it slip away
now you beat your brain
convince yourself it's all the same
try and fight it yeah you solemnly complain
but it does no good
try to hide it but it signals like a flame
yeah it does no good
i'm a witness to my own execution
they fire away
till you're falling faster, falling faster
they fire away
till you're falling faster, falling faster
till your down
you're falling down
surrender
and you just may see
you know you cannot hide
the emptiness inside
it just won't go away
it's brighter than a burned out son
and slowly you succumb
you can't undo what's done
and throw it all away
now you beat your brain
convince yourself it's all the same
try and fight it yeah you solemnly complain
but it does no good
try to hide it but it signals like a flame
yeah it does no good
i'm a witness to my own execution
they fire away
till you're falling faster, falling faster
they fire away
till you're falling faster, falling faster
till your down
you're falling down
