SAOSIN LYRICS
"Seven Years"
Taking on seven years
the holy ghost had left alone
Test my arms, kick like crazy
I've been trying way too long
only push the way off to fight you
Now I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not sure
Getting off my chest
the story ends
I would find a way without...
Tell him his eyes see too clear
I would find a way without you
Tell him his eyes see too clear
That mistake was gold
I know that without you
is something that I could never do
That was why staple the eyes and
seven dates for me to sell machines
and tear on
Seven years you assured me
that I'd be fine if I complied
only push the way off to fight you
(only push the way off to fight you)
Now I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not sure
Getting off my chest
the story ends
I would find a way without...
Tell him his eyes see too clear
I would find a way without you
Tell him his eyes see too clear
That mistake was gold
I know that without you
is something that I could never do
SAOSIN LYRICS
"Translating The Name"
Oh, start send me grieves and before breathing
(I have your voice on tape in a southern accent screaming at me)
I was only one and we weren't prepared for one before dreaming
(I have your voice on tape in a southern accent screaming at me)
Know things look lovely to you
Holding back, now and forever
Sweetheart, things look lovely
Hoping for midnight and I deny
You were walking so peculiar like (Still so deadly)
You were lost in somebody else
You were walking so peculiar like (Still so deadly)
You were lost in somebody else
Sweet penance for a sound
It might explode in our hands
I'm falling in a brown pigmentation of
Where the element guards cut short, turned in, and stopped
I've been watching rose give in and
I wish that I could taper away so
I've been watching rose give in to it
Severing the ties between mother and son
I've been watching rose give in to it
Severing the ties between mother and son
Know things look lovely to you
Holding back, now and forever
Sweetheart, things look lovely
Hoping for midnight and I deny
You were walking so peculiar like (Still so deadly)
You were lost in somebody else
You were walking so peculiar like (Still so deadly)
You were lost in somebody else
Sweet penance for a sound
It might explode in our hands
It might explode
Sweet penance for a sound
It might explode in our hands
It might explode
Oh, I once saw many place the end
I promised the world and a dozen roses
Oh, I once saw many place the end
I promised the world and a dozen roses
That was why staple the eyes and
seven dates for me to sell machines
and tear on
Don't treat me, I'm to blame (sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not sure)
Don't treat me like I ever accused you
[x5]
SAOSIN LYRICS
"3rd Measurement In C"
Taking back, overdone
Free and safely
Souvenirs, out of style
Right in front and right on
do it so, I'll be mad, you'll be gone
And I'm sad that you'll be gold upon
gold in my veins
tango with daddy and separate only
smile my only rights of passage
Only you, mark my words
upon the stage you strike off
to get engaged in California
And I'm sad that you'll be gold upon
gold in my veins
tango with daddy and separate only
smile my only rights of passage
Don't say that I'm the one you want to lose
Don't say that I'm the one you want to lose
I want to know
Don't say that I'm the one you want to lose
Don't say that I'm the one you want to lose
Don't say that I'm the one you want to lose
Don't say that I'm the one you want to lose
SAOSIN LYRICS
"Lost Symphonies"
To install the notion that I divided by I
replace the occasion to speak
I'm not the only lonely boy...
Until I decide to take my watch off, I'll still believe that we
we're just a matter of time, still getting older everyday
(shout for shout sake)
Siren siren, don't do this dance in my ear,
In fact I've already lost him once
I do a deadly dance and all I've asked for so little
I've already lost him
If I decide to sever the plates below
the shore would separate and find only seven placed again.
Until I decide to take my watch off, I'll still believe that we
we're just a matter of time, still getting older everyday
(shout for shout sake)
Siren siren, don't do this dance in my ear,
In fact I've already lost him once
I do a deadly dance and all I've asked for so little
In fact I've already lost him
Before commemorating this anniversary
(ten feet tall and I still have the right to say, I hope you still believe)
"They Perch On Their Stilts Pointing And Daring Me To Break Custom"
I'm not On my face I scratched out something like a silhouette
around the golden ten like lambs on my face I’ve hidden away any embarrassment away from my acquaintances
sold on anything but half a dream
I'm not sensing a thing
I see a blank notebook page
and it's my life and there is
nothing I can think to write
I fear the thought of not sensing a thing
I hope you don't see a thing
I said, smile through everyone you ever see
(so what you gave him the time of day)
twist back and end this suffering
I'll dance around, I honestly give up and de robe
I see a blank notebook page
and it's my life and there is
nothing I can think to write
I fear the thought of not sensing a thing
"Bury Your Head"
Bury your head,
Bury your head,
I was feeling fine, you'll be coming clean tonight
And I'll be falling down with you once again
Call me your valentine, call me once tonight
And I haven't said it's okay
The things you said, I'm rehearsing them,
The things you said, I'm rehearsing them,
They went back on us
(Closed eyes rolled back couldn't step it up)
I could know when to come on to it
It's the thought that emerges
(Take back couldn't step it up)
I could never love the ion vein*
Bury your head, and the child smashed you down
And the psalms will soon recall me again
Fall down below
I'll sleep tonight when you're okay
And I haven't said it's okay
The things you said, I'm rehearsing them,
The things you said, I'm rehearsing them,
They went back on us
(Closed eyes rolled back couldn't step it up)
I could know when to come on to it
It's the thought that emerges
(Take back couldn't step it up)
I could never love the ion vein*
They have been the ones who've seen enough
This is what you call love?
They stole my lies,
Sold right and all,
They wandered around and round my mouth,
They stole my lie,
Sold right and all,
(Stole it all, Stole it all),
They have been the ones who've seen enough
They went back on us
(Closed eyes rolled back couldn't step it up)
I could know when to come on to it
It's the thought that emerges
(Take back couldn't step it up)
I could never love the ion vein*
You'll be coming clean tonight
[In the acoustic version it goes 'change' here]
Right side falls
heavenly grace to you I owe you too
Right side because
heaven and I should be so easy
[to fade]
"I Wanna Hear Another Fast Song"
We are in tune with old, now feel-feel it.
Feel better supposed to
say it was something new, one by one
(all we are is no one)
This won't mean a thing.
I overheard you once, this has gone on before.
kinda like the way you move with me
We are accounted for.
We seem so far away from,
These things we used to know.
We seem so far away from, everything new.
We are in tune with old, now feel-feel it.
They all will say they broke it up
say it was something new
no one needs to know
We seem so far away from,
This won't mean a thing
I overheard you once, this has gone on before.
kinda like the way you move with me
We are accounted for.
We seem so far away from,
These things we used to know.
We seem so far away from, everything new
All we are is no one (no one)
This won't mean a thing.
We seem so far away from, these things we used to know.
We seem so far away from, everything new
"New Angel"
Take back and rewind this tape or
Erase it black and you'll never think of him
But we've had one chance to take back
But over and over again
I'll clean your wounds this time
So we can rewind it all
Till they're gone tonight
I'll tear into another lie (to you)
Cause you wouldn't take me home
Your eyes are yours to be clear now
Cause you wouldn't take me home
You're right and I wasn't listening
I never told you what you were missing
And I will feel the sigh
I will feel the way
And I will feel the sigh
To eternal sin
"It's Far Better To Learn"
You'd better learn that this will not blow over
And over
High above, they're taking over you
And you should know
I will not let you go
(Let you go)
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
There's something greater there
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
It's not gonna change you
We walk along
But never turn to see what we have done
(What we have done)
We choose our moves so carefully for you
(Carefully for you)
I will not let you go
(Let you go)
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
There's something greater there
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
It's not gonna change you
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
It's not gonna change you
Why believe in nothing?
Why believe in nothing at all?
Why believe in nothing?
Why believe in nothing at all?
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
There's something greater there
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
It's not gonna change you
What is my body worth?
What is my body worth?
We are the only ones
We are the only ones
"Sleepers"
What happened to us all?
Have we slept through it?
Taking hits off the surface
It's too hard to swallow when
Their judgements are concentrated
On everything they know.
Was it all enough? (No fair)
Or did it wake you up from your sleeping?
[Chorus]
I've overheard it once
This has gone on before
It's too one in the same
When you're accounted for
We seem so far away from
These things we used to know
We seem so far away from
everything we are
Everyone that moves around me
They're saying nothing
That makes the fight a blur
Say we're something that no one wanted to hear
They know that everything is wrong
Was it all enough? (No fair)
Or did it wake you up from your sleeping?
[Chorus]
I've overheard it once
This has gone on before
It's too one in the same
When you're accounted for
We seem so far away from
These things we used to know
We seem so far away from
everything we are
"It's So Simple"
I never thought you would lose yourself
The hardest part was falling down again
(And getting up again)
I'm a fool to watch you walk away
Are you bothered by the choice you made?
When we fall to the ground
Slowly we're safe and sound
It's so simple to be afraid
It's so simple when you know who you are
It's so simple to be afraid
It's so simple when you know who you are
I caught you lying to yourself
Now everything is spinning 'round and around
(Then standing still again)
Well I'm a fool to watch but never say
Are you bothered by the choice you made?
When we fall to the ground
Slowly we're safe and sound
It's so simple to be afraid
It's so simple when you know who you are
It's so simple to be afraid
It's so simple when you know who you are
But maybe we were wrong..
When will you know
That you can feel belonged
I think you fell in deeper than you imagined
It's so simple to be afraid
(It's so simple)
It's so simple when you know who you are
It's so simple to be afraid
(It's so simple)
It's so simple when you know who you are
All we are is golden
This won't mean a thing
All we are is golden
This won't mean a thing
"Voices"
I miss the part, when we were moving forward now
(On our way down)
But maybe someday, I'll be something more than love
Just know I'll never tell
And when you're on your way down
(Through the clouds)
And you're waiting for your body's re-entry again
We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of
I'm missing parts, now that you've told me everything
(On our way down)
And I was blessed and I've forgotten how to love
You said you'd never tell
And when you're on your way down
(Through the clouds)
And you're waiting for your body's re-entry again
We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of
Not even I will tell...
We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
We say these things to know they're real.
We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of
We speak in different voices
When fighting with the one's we've loved
We speak in different voices
We speak in different voices
To know they're real. Real.
I'll never...
"Finding Home"
If only I had truthfully seen
That night we'll never re-live
But you and I could not go and walk away
Just close your eyes
You'll never see me crashing down
I see where we had come in doubt
I'd be lonely if you weren't so proud
I have seen so many loving faces
They turn back and leave with looks of regret
The road goes and I am finding home in it
But you and I should not play those games
The world is coming to an end
It's just the way I see my face
And I can never believe
(Now I can see it)
Now I see where things are turning 'round
And I'd be lonely if you weren't so proud
I have seen so many loving faces
They turn back and leave with looks of regret
The road goes and I am finding home in it
The road goes and I am finding home in it
I saw him fly
He's never looked this way
I saw in his eyes
He's never coming down
I have seen so many loving faces
They turn back and leave with looks of regret
The road goes and I am finding home in it
The road goes and I am finding home in it
The road goes and I am finding home in it
(And now you're finally home)
And I am finding home
(And now we're finally home)
And I am finding home in it
"Come Close"
Remind yourself
That they are the ones who will hold you still
My thoughts exploding in thousands of pieces (Thousands of pieces)
It looks so beautiful when, I know it's not love cause
I've been trying (As we are waiting)
I've been trying to let you know
So come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can show yourself
So come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can be yourself again
When you notice yourself
as something more than just a reflection
you'll see (you'll see)
it's not me (it's not me)
I guess I'm trying to say,
I know it's not love, but...
I've been trying (As we are waiting)
I've been trying to let you know
So come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can show yourself
So come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can be yourself again
Now you've found love, it's shining through
Come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can show yourself
So come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can be yourself again
Come close, and I will carry you,
Come close, in my arms.
I never wanted to hear
We've had one chance to take back
But over and over again
(I'll clean your wounds tonight)
So we can rewind it all 'til I come inside
I'll tear in two and never lie to you
('Cause you wouldn't take me home)
Your eyes are yet to be clear now
('Cause you wouldn't take me home)
You were right and I wasn't listening
(I never told you what you were missing)
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
This was the only way we knew how to make everything just OK
(I'll make it up tonight)
The sun was two steps too close with his waking eyes
We'll make believe that everything's all right
('Cause you wouldn't take me home)
Your eyes are yet to be clear now
('Cause you wouldn't take me home)
You were right and I wasn't listening
(I never told you what you were missing)
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
We are the only ones we are running from
I want to break it off
We should stop 'cause there's nothing going on
(On)
I never wanted to hear all the things that you told me
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
"Collapse"
So, tell me is it right?
To feel like we're only getting smaller
And if we were to find the feeling
But I'm only treading water
We've made a few mistakes, it's not worth it to say
(we all fall for the sound)
'Cause we are the only ones, we will get up
And we are aware, 'cause we've been through it
And we are the only ones, we will carry each other on our own
Believe the sound when the truth will send you falling
You see the lights but your mind isn't open
Now I hear you calling
We've made a few mistakes, it's not worth it to say
(we all fall for the sound)
'Cause we are the only ones, we will get up
And we are aware, 'cause we've been through it
And we are the only ones, we will carry each other on our own
Open your eyes and let all the light in
Open your eyes up a little more
I'm sure it will soon come out
'Cause we are the only ones, we will get up
And we are aware, 'cause we've been through it
And we are the only ones, we will carry each other on our own
Open your eyes and let all the light in
Open your eyes up a little more
I'm sure it will soon come out
"You're Not Alone"
It's just like him
To wander off in the evergreen park
Slowly searching for any sign
Of the ones he used to love..
He says he's got nothing left to live for
(He says he's got nothing left...)
And this time I think you'll know..
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
You will live to tell
She's just like him
Spoiled rotten
Confused by the lies she's been fed
And she's searching for no one..
(But herself)
Her eyes turn to green and she seems to be happy
That she is here
And this time I think you'll know...
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
You will live to tell
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
(There is more to know)
We're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
You will live to tell..
(So tell me)
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
(Make it out)
You will live to tell
(Live to tell)
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
(And I know)
You can make it out
You will live to tell..
You are not alone.
You're not, you're not alone.
"Some Sense Of Security"
So what have we done?
With X and O's to mark our way home (home)
It seems as though we've forgotten
The way we move
Can we save ourselves?
From the one we're becoming
Please monsieur, remember
Don't tell me how to get somewhere better
Why write with confidence?
Why try to save them?
We try to not forget
It's so much better there
Did you think you could make it on your own?
It was so much better there
So what have you done
To make yourself a little bit happier
I can feel the vibrations
When you said I'd feel nothing
I'm giving up, so give it up
Please monsieur, remember
Don't tell me how to get somewhere better
Why write with confidence?
Why try to save them?
We try to not forget
It's so much better there
Did you think you could make it on your own?
It was so much better there
((This won't mean anything..))
((This won't mean anything...))
This won't mean anything
This won't mean anything tonight
This won't mean anything
This won't mean anything tonight
Why write with confidence?
Why try to save them?
We try to not forget
It's so much better there
Did you think you could make it on your own?
It was so much better
((This won't mean anything))
((This won't mean anything tonight...))
"I Can Tell"
Betray
The Avalon is always beside me
And I'm following it home
Where is my home
Orion glows
And his eyes open up
I once believed that I would set you in line
If only I had the strength you'd be completely accepting something else
If you keep asking me I'll melt away in the summer air
It won't hurt half as much and I'll beg for you to stop it now
If you keep asking me I'll melt away in the summer air
It won't hurt half as much and I'll beg for you just tell me something
The fluid through the alpha waves and power cables everywhere
Exercising self-control
The child calls
And he lies open
I would believe if only I'd been thinking at all
If only I had the strength you'd be completely accepting something else
If you keep asking me I'll melt away in the summer air
It won't hurt half as much and I'll beg for you to stop it now
If you keep asking me I'll melt away in the summer air
It won't hurt half as much and I'll beg for you just tell me something
If you keep asking me (keep asking me) keep asking me
If only I had the strength you'd be completely accepting something else
If you keep asking me I'll melt away in the summer air
It won't hurt half as much and I'll beg for you to stop it now
If you keep asking me I'll melt away in the summer air
It won't hurt half as much and I'll beg for you just tell me something
You swore
Out like my life
You cried
So I'm engaged to smile
I Have Become What I Have Always Hated"
[Performed by Anthony Green & Chris Sorenson]
Holy eyes bring back one
Never if you only trust your separation
I believe and then
I'll try to give in
Is one fall already bad?
Seems far, but it's true
Whoever told you that
We will find a way to be this way
It's true, whoever told you that
It's fine to walk right outta control
It's true, whoever told you that
That's fine I hope the best for you
It's true, whoever told you that
We try the best to be the best but look what you've done
We are respiratory
We take violence in stride
We are respiratory
We are never to fall
We are the only story, intriguing myth
We told it twice before and I
I believe and then
I'll try to give in
We owe the attention for
Seems far, but it's true
Whoever told you that
We will find a way to be this way
It's true, whoever told you that
It's fine to walk right outta control
It's true, whoever told you that
That's fine I hope the best for you
It's true, whoever told you that
We try the best to be the best but look what you've done
We are respiratory
We take violence in stride
We are respiratory
We are never to fall
"Let Go Control"
and i know
that i should let you go

this chance wont be the last one
this chance wont be the last one
we take our lives
we'll never die
and we'll learn what was right
this chance wont be the last one
this chance wont be the last one
i'll give you time to spend alone
and once the pain is gone, your light will let us know
set free, now you can try and speak
the words that you would see
i already know
we take our lives
we'll never die
and we'll learn what was right
this chance wont be the last one

"Mookie's Last Christmas"
From throat and eyes came winter and reasons
I'm told to carry on
Sad overwhelms my senses drown oh I feel dependent
The feeling that you were honest before
I can't shake it...
Make the same mistake twice
Burst of red and green all over me
Brings the things that she'll love
I should let it fold over
We count the days left, 23
And all I know
Honestly, could I be protected
With you suddenly gone
The feeling that you were honest before
I can't shake it...
Make the same mistake twice
Burst of red and green all over me
Brings the things that she'll love
I should let it fold over
Make the same mistake twice
Burst of red and green all over me
Brings the things that she'll love
I should let it fold over
Make the same mistake twice
Burst of red and green covering me
"Penelope"
[Originally by Pinback]
[Performed by Chris and Cove]
Oh Penelope
Are you filled with air
Swallowed oxygen
That makes you float up?
Is it Dropsy?
Will your lungs swell?
It’s depressing me
To see you struggle
Oh Penelope
Are you filled with air
Swallowed oxygen
That makes you float up?
Is it Dropsy?
Will your lungs swell?
It’s depressing me
To see you struggle
I’m treading water with my oars
Glass galleons anchored, oceans floor
I’m diving down with all my gear
In search of treasure, para mi corazon
Take you to the forest
Let you feel the raindrops falling down
Seeping through your redscales
Eliminate the faucet
Eliminate the need for water
Replace it with a safe shell
Don’t wanna see you floating upside down
On the top of the bowl when I
Come round to visit you
Don’t wanna see you floating upside down
No girl
Need you there, Need you there, Need you there
Ooh Release that air
(I’m treading water with my oars
Glass galleons anchored, oceans floor
I’m diving down with all my gear
In search of treasure, para mi corazon)
Take you to the forest
Let you feel the raindrops falling down
Seeping through your redscales
Eliminate the faucet
Eliminate the need for water
Replace it with a safe shell
If they summon the rains now,
Are you gonna rise?
If they summon the rains now,
Are you gonna rise?
Do you feel sick when you read it
Do you think that I can feel it faster
Away with the rose I gave
Do you wear it with confidence
Are you aware that I can feel it faster
Away with the rose I gave
Are you aware that I'm falling faster
Are you aware that I'm falling faster
Just like she said (just like she said)
Behind closed doors (just like she said)
We had said it was still good
We had said
I'll waste it all when I'll be down with it
[Repeat all]
It's been this way for as long as I remember
You'll be safe and sound
It's been this way for as long as I remember
We had said it was still good
We had said
I'll waste it all when I'll be down with
We don't care what we have done and seen
Just close your eyes
For every day
For every day
Please once
Do what it said
I was waiting and I was waiting
And I'll be fine with
I'll be fine again
We don't care what we have done and seen
We gave up everything, we gave up all we had
"Follow And Feel"
Don't let them know you're watching the situation crumble
(situation crumble)
These things, they take time
And they know, yes, they know they should be better now
She's watching me awkwardly from a distance
Should I care?
Is there something more I should have known?
(we know them)
I know that I wonder
They took his crown
There's nothing more left of him now
(but he will be okay)
I appreciate, now that they choose to ignore
I can set her free to go without a payment plan
She's watching me awkwardly from a distance
Should I care?
Is there something more I should have known?
(we know them)
I know that I wonder
Will she go or follow?
Follow, please follow me home
(me home)
Follow, please follow me home
This won't end like last time
The things you swore, they never made me feel anymore
She's watching me awkwardly from a distance
Should I care?
Is there something more I should have known?
(we know them)
I don't need to wonder
