di Underoath

Held captive, I’m a prisoner
In the back room where the water leaks
and I’m oh, so cold
Command me on what to do, but we both
know neither you or I are in control

There’s nothing left for me here
I’m grabbing on to what’s left of this hole.
It’s all too real this can’t be happening

Never again, ever again, will I say I’m Ok
I’m scared of the fate that will become
mine

No time to talk you know the drill
Under my desk this can’t be it
I’m only dreaming, I’ve got to be dreaming
But I can’t get up. No time to talk, not this
time, this is my place
This is where I arrange

It’s so funny how we see things so clear
when we have no time left to live

So lay back now and take it in
I won’t say a word. I won’t say anything

I can’t believe how it feels
To stand here in this room
and feel like it’s going to blow
I think we're all going to blow

I’ve got to be dreaming
We've got to be dreaming
Please don’t wake me up
This is the end
Il tuo voto:
In the end we tend to think of how it
began
I could never explain the picture it painted,
and how it made me feel
Now the ceiling is in motion
The light centered and overlooked
You want to see me disappear? Well, so do I
Such a quiet evaporation

We’re nothing but hollow vessels in search
of what makes us alive
I never said this was my revolution when
you looked me in the eye
Oh, how I’ve walked this white line so
many times before
What a feeble attempt just to feel alive

This is for you and your hopeless case
You never would leave me in your wish to
fail every time
Every time I try

So talk about it
At least it makes you feel something inside

Who have I become
Oh God, everything all around me is
crumbling at my feet

I stare so delicate and ashamed
at the shell I’ve shed myself from

In the eyes of my ghost
and I will never look back again
Il tuo voto:
The time has come for you
to sit this out
To fit inside your mold
would be to sell myself short

This ground we tread upon
is now filling up to our necks
We turn the pages left to right
We see everything

Oh,my story’s growing, it is
on my last request
Don’t make me feel so contradicting
There’s no room for cheating and being
yourself
Failure leaves such a bitter taste in their
mouth

And on the last hour
we write so many new chapters again
And on the outside
where there are no surprises

Oh, it’s getting longer
to see it through their eyes
would bring me so much closer
You can do this night after night

Failure leaves such a bitter taste in my
mouth

Taste and see, I swear I know what’s good
Be still and know that they won’t lie to you
every
single time you’re facing lies
I know why you never take your eyes off
me
I’ve used my lungs for everything but
breathing

I find myself dried up in this conversation
So pull me out, pull me aside
Il tuo voto:
(Psalm 50:1-6, in Russian)

PS 50:1 Бог Богов, Господь возглаголал и призывает землю, от восхода солнца до запада.

PS 50:2 С Сиона, который есть верх красоты, является Бог,

PS 50:3 грядет Бог наш, и не в безмолвии: пред Ним огонь поядающий, и вокруг Его сильная буря.

PS 50:4 Он призывает свыше небо и землю, судить народ Свой:

PS 50:5 'соберите ко Мне святых Моих, вступивших в завет со Мною при жертве'.

PS 50:6 И небеса провозгласят правду Его, ибо судия сей есть Бог.

The mighty one, God the Lord, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to the place where it sets
Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines forth
Our God comes and does not keep silent, a devouring fire is before him, and a mighty tempest all around him
Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines forth
He calls to the heavens above and to the earth, that he may judge his people:
Gather to me my faithful ones, who made a covenant with me by sacrifice!
The heavens declare his righteousness, for God himself is judge
Il tuo voto:
Speak up
My ears are growing weary
I’ll sing this to the end
and watch the waves crash over me

Not too much to overcome with enough
time to turn it all around
In a picture perfect scenery I’ve become a
stick figure illustration

My eyes roll back and focus on what’s
ahead
I can still stand if you lend the hand to
brace me

I’ll take this on my own
Il tuo voto:
Someone please turn the lights back on
I've been wandering here for days, disconnected,
And in search for new air to breathe in

I don't think I can fix this
Don't think I could change

But that's the problem
We never speak to Him
Our closing walls have caged us in
And I can't quite remember

This was the first time I didn't say enough
This was the only time I kept it close enough

Brace yourself!
Come on and brace yourself!

They're not waking
They're not waking up
They're not waking
They're not waking

Oh, my God

Oh, my God
I hate the me that I've become, this needy useless forgetting one
Truthfully I can't be the me, the me that I've washed up to be

Don't stop breathing
the walls have just begun to spin
Just let the water calm you this time
It's all around you, just open your eyes and take a look
It will never kill you; not this time

Don't stop breathing
Just let the water calm you
Don't stop breathing
Not this time

It's all around you
It's all around you
We're surrounded for all I care

Brace yourself right now
Lights out I'm not breathing
I can't keep swimming, can't keep my head up
Il tuo voto:
Maybe we
Why dont we
Sit right here for half an hour
We'll speak of what a waste I am

And how we missed you beat again

I swear we need to find some comfort in this run down place
To bridge the gap of this concious state that we live in
And I'm short on time

How come you try
To place us all
And fit the shape of
And I break
What they tell you
You to move on, move on!
But mostly what they show you
At this rate we can't give up
I'm takin back all the things I've said
I'm takin back all the things I've said
But I sure can't just sit still
Keep me filled in and I swear I'll come

We walk alone
We walk alone
We walk alone
We walk alone
We walk alone
We walk alone
Back home
Alone, back home

You're almost gone and I'm okay
I still see your shadow
To give you time to be afraid
But never your face again
I remember your presence

I hope to God you come down
I hope to God you feel this now
I hope to God you come down
I hope to, God

I know there must be some way out of here
And all of them will be waiting there
Il tuo voto:
In a deep breath it all starts to change.
Flip my world inside out, honestly I like it better this way
When I mesh the night through the back of my eyes

I have put myself here
I'm the culprit, I am the culprit

I've been swallowed up alive
Shut down, building from the inside out
I can finally walk through the walls
(X2)

I swear I've slipped right through the cracks in the floor
It's so easy when it's pulling me under (X3)

Now I can see things from the outside, and I will sit here with no place in mind

I swear I've slipped right through the cracks in the floor (X2)

I can't escape from this place,
I can't escape from

This is so unfamiliar (X2)

to me (to me) (X2)

I can hear the unsatisfying silence
My mouth is open but none of you can hear me
Il tuo voto:
So hold your head high and know it's not the end of the road
Walk down this beaten path before you pack your things and head home
At the end of the road you'll find what you've been longing for
You'll find what you've been longing for

I know 'cause my feet have the scars to show
I was lost with vague direction and no place to call home

YEAH!!!!!!

It's time for you to press on
This is not your war
Set your sights, set your sights to North
PRESS ON!! PRESS ON!!
UH!!
This is not your escape (X2)
Wash away what they thought of you, and press on, PRESS ON!!
Because in this place, we're all as good as dead...end cycle (X2)

PRESS ON!!

Behind the mask you'll find yourself alone
It's not the end of road, the end of the road for YOU!!

At the end of the road you'll find what you've been longing for
you'll find what you've been longing for
you'll find what you've been longing for
