Song lyrics
maybe we, why don't we sit right here for half an hour?
we'll speak of what a waste I am and how we missed your beat again.

I swear we need to find some comfort in this run down place.
to bridge the gap of this concious state that we live in.
I'm short on time.

how come you try and fit the shape of what they tell you.
but mostly what they show you.
I'm taking back all the things I said.
keep me filled in, I swear I'll come.

we walk alone, back home.

you're almost gone and I'm okay to give you time to be afraid.
I still see your shadow but never your face again.
I remember your presence.

I hope to God you come down.
I hope to God you feel this now.

I know there must be some way out of here and all of them will be
waiting there.

My favorite part is definately the introduction. The beginnings of their songs are always wonderful.
but, yet another fabulous song.

kstrel, the lyrics are mixed up because when the album leaked, whoever leaked it didn't know which song titles went with which songs, underoath released a statement about this. so, its the song titles that were mixed up, not the lyrics.

To reply to your question.... The idiots mixed up the lyrics with Moving For The Sake Of Motion. Just like the other idiot that mixed up There Could Be Nothing After This with Returning Empty Handed on this site.... the guy wont answer my flipping correction *rollseyes*

im so confused.. some lyrics sites have.. diff lyrics to this song? i duno i have both versions... anyone know which the real lyrics are for the right song? heres the other lyrics

So I pleed side by myself
I've been wanting it for days
Some think I could fix this
Some think I could change
Buts that's the problem
We never speak to well
My closing walls that keeps us in
I cant quite remember
This was the first time I didn't say enough
This was the victim I kept it close enough
Brace yourself, come on and brace yourself
Then Ill wake it
Then Ill wake it up
Then Ill wake it (x2)
Oww! my god I cant believe that ive become
This sinning useless gameboard
Truthfull lies (x2)
I cant be the man
This means i've washed up to plan
Don't stop breathing
The walls are just beginning to spin
Just let the water calm you this time
Its all around you just open your eyes
And take a look
They ll never kill you not this time
Don't stop breathing
Just let the water calm you
Don't stop breathing, not this time
Its all around you x2 were surrounded for all I care. Brace yourself, right now
