The Weak's End
Album - 27 gennaio 2004 - Debaser id 116553

Are you listening?
We write a thousand pages, they're torn and on the floor
Headlights hammer the windows, we're locked behind these doors
And we are never leaving, this place is part of us
And all these scenes repeating are cold to the touch

My hands seem to deceive me
When I'm nervous or when I'm healthy
The scenery's all drawn

They hang here from the walls dear
Painting pictures, bleeding colors
Blank at the windows

Sometimes it gets so hard to breathe
Your eyes see right through me

These fights with your arms left beside
One thing and one more says goodnight
You've got the map come get to me
These knuckles break before they bleed

Tear out these veins that own my heart
This skin that wears your lasting marks
I've built these walls come get to me, come get to me

Is this your lesson, a slight discretion?
The lines that keep you, the lines that sweep you
Lock the doors from the inside

Your face is so contagious, it wears announcements
It leaves me breathless, I won't forget this
I won't forget

Sometimes it gets so hard to breathe
Your eyes see right through me

Let the walls have their say
(Let the walls have their say)
(Let the walls have their say)
Let the walls have their say
(Let the walls have their say)
Have their say

There's no conversation, words without remorse
And this television drowns the only source
Wake from these dreams of you in my arms
To the staircase where you hold my heart

This place, these walls mean everything to me

Three sleepless nights
this isn't how isn't supposed to be
but you're so good at taking your time
to get back to me

I will wait for you forever
if you would just ask me
I thought that I could change you
but you changed me

But it doesn't feel right holding someone else's hand
Together on phone lines and living at two opposite ends

It scares me to think that you could find takers
other than me and better than me
But your head is elsewhere
And i'm talking enough for both of us
When will you see it's not so easy for me

You're careless and whispered
insulting and bruising
And I thought that you said
things were improving
These laces are untied
but my feet are still walking away
(I fall from your eyes. Your eyes I trusted. You said forever)

i never thought that you could say these words
is this really happening?

i never thought that you could say these words
is this really happening?
(don't say...)

i never thought that you could say these words
is this really happening?
(don't say that we can...)

i never thought that you could say these words
is this really happening?
(don't say that we can still be...)

i never thought that you could say these words
is this really happening?
(don't say that we can still be friends)

Erase my name from this page
How can you take all these days (What is inside me? What have I done?)
And throw them away (is this the only way that you will notice me?)
as i sit here waiting for you (Dead words for closed ears all this is sung for you)
I stay up nights (If you are still pretending this is what's right)
until stars leave the sky (why can't you look at me can you only see)
Knowing what my dreams can take away (sides, your side, can take away)

Walk away from me this night is done.

just take it back (I feel)
they're only words (your hair)
we hold the tethers (through my)
we're here together (fingers)

we paint the night (every)
only to find (silk stand)
it's cracked and peeling (takes my)
each face revealing (breath a-)
what we don't say (-way)

let's take these lines and
draw ourselves out of here
this shipwreck
from set-sail
we'll map the stars
tonight they help to find a way
when all is said
words can breathe more life than death

the innocence that people share
touching on secrets and letting down hair

over and over let's not forget last time
i've kept the best parts and play them in my mind
this is tomorrow so take it or leave it

empty diaries
there's nothing to say
and we'll take the right steps
to keep these pages clean
you want the answers
i see them on your face
you need to know this is where the promise breaks

i can give you my answer
i can give you my answer
i can give you my answer
i can give you my answer

i know (i know)
if you stay (if you stay)
this will be (this will)
ours to take (be ours to take)

inside i (i feel)
am overwhelmed (so good)
from holding back (i want)
but know that this won't be forever (you for all my days, but tonight...)

i can't stay here
you can't ask me
just so you would know

One and three, you are here
(One and three, you're here)
To tell me we can't do this
(To tell me we can't do this)
(Three for three, I'll disagree)

Anymore

Your hair and face against the mirror
As I take the steps to save what's left of me
Someone's out when it's over

People steal from you
And they take anything they choose

It's good to see you
I missed you last night
That's such a lovely color
It goes with your eyes
Before we fall asleep
I just wanted to say
This all seems so easy
But there's choices to make

Can't decide, then look at the faces
(Candlelight)
We're burning the pages
(Ask us why)
And hurting ourselves with this false start
(Resign yourself)
And we pretend (and always be)
It simply gets easier (Without the one)
But it doesn't get easier (thing you need)
(Reading words with no replies)

When we have these mornings where we can't say goodbye

I wanted to mean everything to you
But this isn't right
You keep coming back disassembled and I
Keep losing this fight

I won't
Answer

Dancing under starlight glow
No one in the city knows
Confidence can take you
Nerves try to shake you
From going all the way

It's not that far

We watch the tide roll in
With cold air and coffeecakes
Holding our words at lips
Stopping the sounds they make
We know the way to go
We know each step to take
To be here

These words with no replies
Stopping we's and starting i's
This need is killing me
And taking me over

I wanted to mean everything to you
But this isn't right
You keep coming back disassembled and I
Keep losing this fight

You have always seen the best part of me

With my uncovered eyes
Loose from lenses, absorbing light
Your hand is wrapped in mine
The sun set for the last time

Carpet stains from coffee cups
Thrown to stop from hurting so much
Paralyzed I thought I'd fail
You somehow, and let you down
But you saved me from death

We came alive for the first time
Joining as voices sing, together
The same song

Take me (far from all the wrongs)
Let these (fears collapse inside)
Take me (back to when I)
believed

And as a little boy they tried to hide his eyes
with reeds and rituals. The paper and the knife.
But fire will always burn through skin and forgery
and answer when you won't, the bloodless hands of fear

He didn't know (5x)
He was hungry
Didn't know (5x)
He was hungry.

Someone had a knife and took away my eyes.
The last time is right now,
This choice will take or make everyting.
Your face is fading out.

Wash those days from your eyes
and let them fall away.
Drown the fears that own you.

He felt the wake of torrid days
ushered through by warm mistakes.
Suddenly his broken feet
took their rest on bended knee.

He didn't know (5x)
He was hungry
Didn't know (5x)
He was hungry.

Someone had a knife and took away my eyes.
The last time is right now,
This choice will take or make everyting.
Your face is fading out.

I wont stand here.
This dance won't stop the music.
Your promise will help me lead
until the end.

What words have you to say (If this is the last time, I won't forget you)
before we spill (exhale the last breathe, tear down the statue)
this blood? (this scar will remain here to mark where we've severed)
This time you will be afraid (my life from your hands)
You have lost me, your plans failed (your hands from my heart)

This is the last time.

you've taken this too far
now it has to stop
once again, the table has turned and i'm behind
picking up the pieces form the night
my face is scarred
sometimes i feel that i can't trust myself at all

everytime the sky
breaks open with sunshine
and streaming swords collide
it takes me back in time
i float away
to another place
where heaven is waiting right outside

this is war.
can i take it anymore?
i'm falling faster and bleeding more then i have bled before.
certain death ( this blade will carve a purpose ).
lingers on the other hand ( and make you feel defeated).
but i will fight you and victory will be mine in the end .
circumstances mean nothing.
when its over we will be heros
constantly pushing foward without any fear
if i erased the line between forgotten days and memories i'd never change
resolutions made ( in vain ) to face ( play out ) the day
life is yours to save ( save it ) or take ( take it ) away

Somebody please tell me
What am I suppose to do?
You've died and I'm here
Thinking that I hear your voice
But it's somebody else
It's always somebody else

Why did you die?
Don't leave me please
I beg You, God, tonight, bring me peace
I'll never sleep without
The dreams of you alive here with me, alive here with me

The brightness left your eyes
As I held your face
Don't tell me it's the right time
And your last words will sustain me
Until my end…until I see you again

Tears of change
Onto my hands
My face
I am left wanting
Why is this happening?
Why have you been taken away?
I'm tired
I just wanna go home

While words (your life) evade me (but a moment)
I'll wait to (I'll cling to) remember you (forever)
And what you had (your words) meant to me (on my blood)
Could never be forgotten

The chains (why) of death (don't take)
Are falling (away), but my heart still bleeds
It longs for (why) the day (did you die)
When we will be as one, one, one
