Verse 1
Beat changes
from slow to fast
So strange i remember you
in protest of a prayer
and falling back from seas
we fear to sail
i swear i saw the shooter
gold deep and double dare
postmortem warnings
seem inclined to fail
Verse 2
feigning an apology
those words they
never left your lips
those 5 years in Bermuda slide
by like the lights of passing ships
so strange that i remember you
kneeling deep in Nietzsches lies
my throat was an open grave i
drank your stained glass eyes
Chorus
and they taste like dead cathedrals
that are crumbling beneath a
weight ten thousand
jaded tourists
whove traded in their
hearts and hands for
disposable cameras
set to document decay
set to capture just enough of life
to catalogue the things we throw away
Verse 3
(breathing the fumes
of our machines)
weve lost our way
(breathing through
television dreams)
Verse 4
if we could only see us now
if we could only see us now

Outro
the words of the
dead ring in our ears
but its only a lie
the voice in your head
brings you to tears
but you dont know why
the words of the
dead in our ears
but its only a lie
the voice in your head
brings you tears
but its only a lie
yes its only a lie
isnt it?
