lyrics
AND MY HEAD AFIRE
THOUGHTS POUR RIGHT OUT OF ME
VEINS WILL BURST
BLOOD POUR RIGHT OUT OF ME
WORDS SOUNDS
ILL THOUGHT AND TOO SOON
PEOPLE SOLD AN ACT OF BETRAYAL
IF YOU STAND AGAINST THE WIND
YOU’LL WEAR THEM ON YOUR SKIN
YOUR WORDS ARE BARBED
BUT YOUR MIND IS FOR SALE
YOU FORCE YOUR FOOT ON MY MEMORIES
AND SPEAK TO GHOSTS IN MELODIES
IF YOU STAND AGAINST THE WIND
YOU’LL WEAR THEM ON YOUR SKIN
YOUR WORDS ARE BARBED
BUT YOUR MIND IS FOR SALE
NOT A THOUGHT OR CARE FOR HEART OR MIND.
JUST THE FRAME YOU’RE RAISED IN
AND ALL THAT YOU’VE BEEN TOLD.
AND IN THE MORNING I TURN MY FACE AWAY
RED FLAGS FLY UP IN MY HEAD
SHOULD I CALL IT OUT OR SAY NOTHING INSTEAD
SHOOT MY MOUTH OFF LAY MY CARDS OUT
SPELL IT ALL OUT FOR YOU.
BUT THE CONTENT BLOCKERS MAKE YOU DEAF
AND NOTHING’S GETTING THROUGH SO I SAY
PULL THE BLINDS BACK, TAKE A BITE OUT
WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO LOSE?
THOUGHTS POUR RIGHT OUT OF ME
VEINS WILL BURST
BLOOD POUR RIGHT OUT OF ME
WORDS SOUNDS
ILL THOUGHT AND TOO SOON
PEOPLE SOLD AN ACT OF BETRAYAL
IF YOU STAND AGAINST THE WIND
YOU’LL WEAR THEM ON YOUR SKIN
YOUR WORDS ARE BARBED
BUT YOUR MIND IS FOR SALE
YOU FORCE YOUR FOOT ON MY MEMORIES
AND SPEAK TO GHOSTS IN MELODIES
IF YOU STAND AGAINST THE WIND
YOU’LL WEAR THEM ON YOUR SKIN
YOUR WORDS ARE BARBED
BUT YOUR MIND IS FOR SALE
NOT A THOUGHT OR CARE FOR HEART OR MIND.
JUST THE FRAME YOU’RE RAISED IN
AND ALL THAT YOU’VE BEEN TOLD.
AND IN THE MORNING I TURN MY FACE AWAY
RED FLAGS FLY UP IN MY HEAD
SHOULD I CALL IT OUT OR SAY NOTHING INSTEAD
SHOOT MY MOUTH OFF LAY MY CARDS OUT
SPELL IT ALL OUT FOR YOU.
BUT THE CONTENT BLOCKERS MAKE YOU DEAF
AND NOTHING’S GETTING THROUGH SO I SAY
PULL THE BLINDS BACK, TAKE A BITE OUT
WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO LOSE?
