LETLIVE LYRICS

1. Adjectives Might Work

Now what do I find in these readings?
The ink that my pen is bleeding
As the words dance on my tongue I'm reminded to stop
Regress all this talk and depression in thought
As I let you know now that I feel
I said what I meant (finally meant what I said)

Say it again to you
These words are bleeding through my heart
These words can kill, yes it's true
What keeps you alive is my healing art

Now what do you say to someone
When all of the damage has been done?
As the words form this fine blade I'm reminded to stop
Express all this thought and depression in thought
As I let you now that I feel
I said what I meant, finally meant what I said

As much as I would love to, I simply cannot learn to hate you

2. With A Mouth Sewn Shut (You're Pretty Well Spoken)

Speak silent you don't have to say a word
Because I already know what you want to say
Just as in greek violence you don't have to say a word
The coliseum was given a good show today

A picture's worth thousands of words
Just as the one you paint
The canvas is lacking the verbs
You hold your breathe and I faint
A picture's worth thousands of words
Photography which you hate
An allowance to alleviate the verbs
Your silence determines my fate

Mute guidance I map out your every word
I'll follow you blindly till the end of days
Meek violin please learn to play my song
The worlds smallest instrument played for me today

For someone with a mouth sewn shut you are pretty well spoken

3. Comprehension Is Overrated

Bewildered unbridled you're granted one touch
Of course it's not all what it seems
I look down at the hand of sin or what you may call it
At these hands that will never burn clean
Ms. understood now you take a look,
Because things aren't as clear now are they?
Mr. everything's good you
Practice this skill like every single day
I'm ok, I practice this skill everyday,
And I'm ok in an everything's fucked kind of way

Ready, aim, liar

The pen is mightier than the sword, so these words are better to kill you with
These words cannot be stopped, for if they were
I wanted a decent funeral, six feet under in my ebony box
Take the silver lining and wrap it around your neck
Words are expressive so when I say "bang" you're dead and when I say please
You'll love me, and when I say stop it means that I've taken enough

I'll destroy your path(to)logical lying
As long as you explain this to me,
I'm sure I won't mind dying on my own

Words expressive say bang, words expressive say stop,
Words expressive I love you
...I loathe you
...I fucked you

This static communication, this broadcast radio trans.

4. Showcase Heart

Passion, ask this question to love, 'how tall is my faith?'
Since it's all been run out by this tear to the left of my chest
It was quickly occupied by a few of my old friends,
Who quickly express themselves in four letter words

Bad mouth in my taste, it's all for you

Introduce yourself hate, just remember you only get one chance at first impression make it good
When you try your best and they're not impressed, take it like you should
You stand in front of one of the greatest plans ever to be executed
And low and behold ironically posed behind it all was you

Bad mouth in my taste, it's all for you

The day I decided to wear my heart on my sleeve
I came home, shirtless, bareback wondering why it was so cold in here
With marks on my wrist from those swipes at the heart,
Or was it at the sleeve? Taking your own again, so cold in here
And I'll take you at the wrist
Those rather lion esque characteristics could result in death,
Those are the ones that can swipe at your heart

I'll take you, wrist at the wrist and we'll do it again

So cold in here

5. Heroic Suicide

I know about hurting and hatred, but cliche kills the heart
And I know you're looking for some release
Some things are said and some things are done
While this is the best worst thing you can become

Within you they'll sin it's true

And I'll be your hero, and I'll take my life
In exchange for your knife so I can finish what you have started
And don't push it through, and I don't need you,
I'll take this knife and stab an inch or two further than you

I have found, I know exactly just what I must do
Sit back and be strong in disbelief that what you've done is actually true
So remember you'll never amount
To nothing short of the one you doubt

Within you they'll sin it's true

And I'll be your hero, and I'll take my life
In exchange for your knife so I can finish what you have started
And don't push it through, and I don't need you,
I'll take this knife and stab an inch or two further than you

I'll try my best and when I fail
You've succeeded to provoke this fall

And I'll be your hero, and I'll take my life
In exchange for your knife so I can finish what you have started
And don't push it through, and I don't need you,
I'll take this knife and stab an inch or two further than you

Cry show me how much you care

6. Nightmare For Care

Magistrate please compensate your love for me
Blood's not thick enough
Don't frustrate, just demonstrate your love for me and the rest
You open up and you will let them in
I don't hate
We hate you

Punch, scratch, then kiss, three points you can't make a fist
You know I'm the only one you can count on to keep up this list
Do all that you can, lift your fist, become a man,
And you say fuck those family ties preventing redemption's demand

Even atop of your soapbox you'll strain your neck,
Lie in a field of dead crops, I'll still gain respect

You're born into greatness by blood but not red and you get what they ask for
You're born into greatness, blood but not red, the ones you rape are the ones I adore
Fuck hierarchy it's seems that we have domesticated class war

We run the only course we know, we win race, it's for you
We run this seesaw battle, it's not fair? Poor you

7. Cigarette

(I know that) I have now seen the way
(Face this fact) manipulate till this day
(Disgrace this act) I have now find my own way
(I will rise) you will not bring me down
(Defeat demise) to somewhere beneath these grounds
(Reject these lies) simply because I have found

Now I have realized that this still the same
Now I will divide my heart in two
Since I have realized that this is still the same
No longer will I give my heart to you

(I know that) I have now seen the way
(Face this fact) manipulate till this day
(Disgrace this act) I have now found my own way
(I will rise) I hate you in every way
(Defeat demise) my love for you's still the same
(I pound and I pound) painfully force this change

I will not follow you into your hell
I will find solace in your hatred (I will confide in your hatred)
I will not follow you into your hell
I will find solace in your hatred (your hatred)

8. October 30th Syndrome

Take my picture, draw my face,
And make me over with purple's grace
If you pass inspection, while wearing lace,
You've now acquired your personal taste

There's nothing left for you to show...
Turn out the lights
It's your time to shine

There comes a time in every young man's life,
Where you realize you're a woman
There comes a time in every young man's life
Where you fight, so let's fight

Say 'wow', you're gray

On the day we get dressed up there's nothing left for you to wear
You've picked out the same design for the last ten years
You cannot hide behind plastic wrap, because clearly it's clear
You cannot hide behind make up, it runs with the tears
