Away We Go lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

She is her own worst enemy
Her heart a landmine calamity
Waiting for someone to set her off

Morse code a clicking out an SOS
Life raft releasing her last breath
Tonight she's going to drown

Without me, will she reach the great beyond?
Believe me, take my word, I'll never break your heart...
And away we go
My little Jersey girl

If we could escape this innocence
Trapped between the fears and the words we kept
We'll live out our later years

Here in our dreams, we'll reach a great beyond
Believe me, take my word, I'll never break your heart...
And away we go

Sinking in this beautiful undertow, together with you

We're giving up
You can leave what little we believe
Our flaw, discard, come give me what I need
My thoughts won't go away, you are my holiday

Together we'll receive and reach that great beyond
Believe me, take my word, I'll never break your heart...
And away we go
My little Jersey girl

Iron Fist lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

The wish you plead and the things you sought
We all think, we all thought
The things I've done, in the world I've seen,
Don't measure up to you my queen
Oh, I take one for the other, and work my way through this machine

God damn this cursed iron fist
When I lose control
Oh no
God damn this cursed iron fist
When I lose control
Oh no

The first train's out while the last one drones
We'll all sing; "We're going home"
As the curtain swings in to cover all, our secrets kept, our love enough

God damn this cursed iron fist
When I lose control
Give me the strength I know, and please believe me
Oh girl, this is what I've become
And I'm going to leave it up to you
What are you going to do?

Cause I don't want to lose your hold on me
Cause I don't want to lose your hold on me

God damn this cursed iron fist
When I lose control
Oh, give me the doubt oh no, please believe
Oh girl, this is what I've become
And I'm going to leave it up to you
What are you, what are you

Just remember
Pay no attention to this iron... this iron fist
Just remember
Pay no attention to this iron... oh this iron fist

This iron... this iron fist
God damn... this cursed...
God damn... this cursed...
God damn...

Dark Side Of Me lyrics - Coheed and Cambria

In those discouraging days
I always missed the mark
When we were comfort and close
I would neglect to keep

Ooh, you safe and unexposed
A portrait of time repeats
This moment now replaced
With an empty wish to give
I give, I gave

I gave my everything
For all the wrong things
In this cold reality I made
This selfish war machine

Oh, this has become hell
How can I share this life
With someone else?
I promise you
There is no weight that can bury us
Beneath the ghosts of all my guilt

Here in the dark side of me
Here in the dark side of me

Now in your absence I wade
Through the coursing, lonely, lost
And in this tragic dismay
I never could believe what I became

I gave my everything
For all the wrong things
In this cold reality I made
This welcomed war machine

Oh, this has become hell
How can I share this life
With someone else?
I promise you
There is no weight that can bury us
Beneath the ghosts of all my guilt

[4x]
Here in the dark side of me
Here in the dark side of me

Ooh, I couldn't give you
What you needed
It's all my fault
Too coward to believe I lost it all

I gave my everything
For all the wrong things
In this cold reality I made
This selfish war machine

Oh, this has become hell
How can I share this life
With someone else?
I promise you
There is no weight that can bury us
Beneath the ghosts of all my guilt

[4x]
Here in the dark side of me
Here in the dark side of me

2's My Favorite 1 lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Two hearts beat as one
Disguise your mind and feel the hold
This drone, the buzz of our love

In time we move
This churning factor feel the groove
Release the touch that moves you

Oh this is her
No regrets
I embrace your defects
To confess
You were my every wish
I admit that I will never feel alone
Once I call, oh, you home

Oh...

Push towards the dance floor
And together we'll show them who's boss
We'll set a fire once more

Oh this is her
No regrets
I embrace your defects
To confess
You were my every wish
I admit that I will never feel alone
Once I call, oh, you home

Oh...

Oh, maybe it's not now or later
Till you save the best for last
I want to be everything you need

Oh...

Oh this is her
No regrets
I embrace your defects
To confess
You were my every wish
I admit that I will never feel
No I will never feel alone
I stumbled in monotone
While the record spins around
Please turn me over
Slide me into sleeve
Oh girl
Please bring me home

Carol Ann lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

These are the words for my Carol Ann
The girl I broke in half.
Oh I'm afraid there's nothing left
No pieces to put back in place.
I was a monster, the things that I did
I regret, I dismiss.

Oh it's a shame about Carol Ann
And all she could have been.
She soared with such grace
As her body sailed through the windshield
From the passenger seat
I was a monster, through neglect I replaced
Her love for these lonely days

Oh she'll be forgotten
Oh she'll be forgotten

Young hearts belong
To a love that everybody wants.
But we can't have it all
So we take what little we can

Oh mother did you see him coming
Did you see him?
Mother did you see him sneaking
Through the back door?
Still in the time we wish we spent but lost it all
Oh oh
Oh oh
the time we wish we spent but lost it all
Oh oh
Oh oh
the time we wish we spent but lost it all
mother did you see him coming
Did you see him?
Mother did you see him sneaking
Through the back door?
This time we'll reinforce the wall

Don't turn the page love
It's words don't hold your fate
The suit will become one
And from their world you will escape

Through the walls of your heart
I will tear you apart
Through the walls of your heart
I will tear you apart
Through the walls

Random Reality Shifts lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

This little runaway
Against the golden cusp
She screams words of distrust
To tease me
As the motor turns to thrust
Her skin the tone of rust
Her eyes burning with lust

Pray in disbelief
This day be done
A little switchblade, sister
A dreaming of guns
Your courage a disease
It's strengthening me
Oh I'll pull the trigger hun, oh girl, and watch it blow up

Oh this I have wanted it more
While I live in the blank
I wish the past could come take it back
So I could start it all over
Oh this I have pushed to endure
Just to find out it's breaking me
Disgustingly fit into unhappily
With the absolute questions
"Is this what I need? Do I even feel this?"

This burden's mine alone
This world will never know
As I live with it in tow

Oh this I have wanted it more
While I live in the blank
I wish the past could come take it back
So I could start it all over
Oh this I have pushed to endure
Just to find out it's breaking me
Disgustingly fit into unhappily
With the absolute questions
"Is this what I need? Do I even feel this?"

Oh I need a break
From these random reality shifts
And mood swings

All good boys run home to mommy
But you're not afraid no more
Go in through the front door
And give em hell, buddy

All good boys run home to mommy
But you're not afraid no more
Go in through the front door
And give em hell, buddy

Oh I think I made a mess, I made a mess

Oh this I have wanted it more
While I live in the blank
I wish the past could come take it back
So I could start it all over
Oh this I have pushed to endure
Just to find out it's breaking me
Disgustingly fit into unhappily
With the absolute questions

I can't find the answers to this life
I can't find the answers to
I don't think there any when there is just nothing
I don't think there any when there is just nothing
Hold on to what you have, never let go
I'll find out what happens in the truth glow below

Oh I think I made a mess, I made a mess

"The Afterman: Ascension" (2012)

The Hollow lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

All-Mother, are you awake?
I am always awake, what do you require of me?
You'll stay with me, won't you?
I'll be there every step of the way...

Key Entity Extraction I: Domino The Destitute lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

La la la, la la la la [x4]

If you had the courage to stop me from turning
Into what would be the worst in everybody's eyes
Hey, I'm no angel, or the devil of your conscience
To tell you who to be. Good, bad, ugly or otherwise
If you had good common sense, your choices would be gleaming flawless
I want no part in this self-deprecating, worthless, chemistry

We made our beds to lie in them proud, proud of our great mistakes
This warring knife, the flash of it's blade, turn about-face

I implore you, brother
Don't walk away, don't walk away from me
'Cause this is our war

Oh, you think they have it all while you were left with nothing
Oh, oh, you've taken the fall for them to walk all over
You made your bed, so soft and comforting
These dreams await the grey good morning

We made our beds to lie in them proud, proud of our great mistakes
This warring knife, the flash of it's blade, turn about-face

I implore you, brother
Don't walk away, don't walk away from me
'Cause this is our war

Oh, we've got you by the throat
Oh!
All you wanna be...

Welcome all to the everlasting all time low
Please put your hands together
For the ever-failing one man show:
Domino!

Ladies
And broken gentlemen,
The undisputed champ
Of misery
-
Oh and in this corner
We find his challenger
The pride of utopia
The greatest thing ever

Oh, oh oh oh oh Ohh oh oh oh
Ha ha haha hahahaha
[x2]

If you could recall one moment of your past that defined you to be
That made you the man we've come to love, all of the above

This disaster binds us absolute
A thousand lies
You tell yourself
That no one ever loved you right
Ooh, but I would do anything for you
The question fits the question mark
Your signals crossed, your message lost!
Haha!

[Announcer part]

La la la, la la la la! [x4]

This wall won't hold forever
Your time has come, it's now or never

We made our beds to lie in them proud, proud of our great mistakes
This warring knife, the flash of it's blade, turn about-face

I implore you, brother
Don't walk away, don't walk away from me
'Cause' this is our war

One by one, we are together, we fall together!
One by one, we are together, we fall together!

Now my brother
Don't be afraid
We are together, we are together!

Brother!
We are together! We fall together!

The Afterman lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

She gave her heart to a falling star
When news filtered through of his tragedy all the walls went up
Around a world she declines
As the tears from her eyes fall
No one understands, and no one will
All she has lost

If he's not here, then where?
If he's not here, then where?
If he's not here then where?
If he's not here then where?

When she found it there in the cold, blue glare
The words distressed and unfamiliar where the feelings seared

An emptiness had hung, and in her chest, she clenched
Reality settled as the memories raced while on the screen he lived

She teared; "Your selfishness has robbed you of the man you could've been
I wouldn't change a thing about you. I love you dearly, my friend"

If he's not here then where?
If he's not here then where?

My love, Been searching for my Afterman

If he's not here then where?
If he's not here then where?

My love, Been searching for my Afterman

Mothers Of Men lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

In this space where nothing will seem too right
Our voice unheard in this quiet fight
This march we lead will breed our song
To them we're nothing, to them we're pawns
Oh, a desperate play to feel like we belong

Now as we take up into these streets
Remember, I depend on you as much as you on me
Don't try to fake it, let's not pretend
We made you mothers, we made you men
We made you mothers, we made you men

Oh, it's no surprise nobody listens anymore
To what we're saying, to what was said
And in your absence we promised you
Oh, we'll behave, oh, we'll behave
So just keep running, everything will look better once you look away
Oh, I agree, cause' what's the difference?
Oh, is there a difference we make?

Your day will come

The rain starts dancing across our backs
These ardent words seize this heart attack
Belief still strong, we can make this change
The stage is set to occupy the brain
The stage is, we made this, we made this, WE MADE IT

Oh, it's no surprise nobody listens anymore
To what we're saying, to what was said
And in your absence we promised you
Oh, we'll behave, oh, we'll behave
So just keep running, everything will look better once you look away
Oh, I agree, cause' what's the difference?
Oh, is there a difference we make?

Between the dapper villain in a Sunday serial at the podium,
Or another cog in the wheel, just another cog in the wheel
They're both capable of making life hard,
But no bandage can mend all these parts
So why do I give?

Between, between, between
Between, between, between
Between the dream, the dream

Oh, it's no surprise nobody listens anymore
To what we're saying, to what was said
And in your absence we promised you
Oh, we'll behave, oh, we'll behave
So just keep running, everything will look better once you look away
Oh, I agree, cause' what's the difference?
Oh, what's the difference?

Of making life hard,
But no bandage can mend all these parts
So why do I live with this?
No difference...

Goodnight...

Goodnight, Fair Lady lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
I have a story to tell you, of one's slow decline
When a girl yanked on the strings to break this man's heart

Oh lord I think I deserve a little better than this
I think I've earned it
So I'll just keep humming this song and hope you follow

Turn me over, roll me 'round
To find the truth that I don't want found
Oh, don't believe everything you hear
I'm the snake waiting for you, dear
And eventually you'll come to me
I know you will

Oh, I know you will

You're lipstick crazy, I'll make my pass
The drink turns over, the glass smashed
And with a kindness and my smarts I replaced your pleasure
With a friend at the bottom

Turn me over, roll me 'round
To find the truth that I don't want found
Oh, don't believe everything you hear
I'm the snake waiting for you, dear
And eventually you'll come to me
I know you will

Oh, it's my fate to be your biggest mistake
Oh, I tell you all you want to hear until you sleep
I know you will

Oh, goodnight
Oh, goodnight, fair lady

Oh, turn me over, roll me 'round
To find the truth that I don't want found
Oh, don't believe everything you hear
I'm the snake waiting for you, dear
And eventually you'll come to me
And eventually you'll come to me

Oh, we can agree to disagree
Well maybe that was you, then, and now this is me
Eventually you'll come to me, baby
I know you will

Key Entity Extraction II: Holly Wood The Cracked lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Pick a number, wait in line
There's no medicine to fix that mind

Holly Wood, Holly Wood
Watch out here she comes
Holly Wood, Holly Wood
Fucking a loaded gun

Message panicked, naked waste
There's no help to give this one to keep her sane

Holly Wood, Holly Wood
Watch out here she comes
Holly Wood, Holly Wood
Fucking a loaded gun

Look out boy!

Shes a few cards short of a full deck, a joker in the game
Oh, shes got a bullet with your name on it
No doubt shes a mental case

Better keep that girl away!

Oh, Poor Holly Wood
She is cracked goods
Poor Holly Wood

This may be the last time I say
This may be the last time I say

Oh, poor Holly Wood
She is cracked goods
Poor Holly Wood

Oh, she's cracked, she's cracked
And where she's gone, there's no coming back
Ah, watch her finger, she's gonna pull the trigger
Then the party's over

Holly Wood, Holly Wood
Watch out here she comes
Holly Wood, Holly Wood
Fucking a loaded gun

Key Entity Extraction III: Vic The Butcher lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

You made this harder than it had to be
The absolute martyr, etching into me
You flashed your colors at me way prematurely
And now I know what you're up to, and it feels so good
It's right

We've got your number written
Reset the system screaming
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now

These sitting ducks in season
The march of little children
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now

The truth will cut you down to pieces
One-eighty-four, let's burn it down
And if I can't keep from living with this regret
I'll need to change the way I think about us

I listened to them chuckle as they eat
Their judgment hiding behind eyes and dirty teeth
You think I care for all these phony pleasantries
When I want nothing to do with, I want nothing to do with your life

We've got your number written
Reset the system screaming
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now

These sitting ducks in season
The march of little children
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now

The truth will cut you down to pieces
One-eighty-four, let's burn it down
And if I can't keep from living with this regret
I'll need to change the way I think about us

Bye, bye, bye

Baby I'm bad company,
And you don't have a mark
You're the prettiest thing I've ever seen
Come with me, I want to make you dirty

This will cut you down to pieces
One-eighty-four, let's burn it down
And if I can't keep from living with this regret
I'll need to change the way I think

Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now...

Key Entity Extraction IV: Evagria The Faithful lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

This sinking warmth through obscurity,
Beyond the sweet in between where and what you're doing,
There is a view of an uncharted place,
Where you're the brunt of a joke and everyone's laughing,
I am not who I seem, who you thought I could be,
The support you could lean up against when you need,
I'm the dark when you want, the lights out at all costs,
This is mine, that is yours, I'm the bricks in your wall.

Goodbye forever, my darling, whether
I was everything you thought I'd be or not,
I was a bad man, oh, to stop you girl from loving me.
Goodbye forever, my darling, whether
I was everything you thought I'd be or not,
I was a bad man, oh, to stop you girl from loving me.

A yearning loss to silence me,
The struggle breaks the black and white, calling, transmitting,
The echo breaks, electric air,
Her pulse it stretches from never to everywhere.

And from the other side she'll save me,
Her courage, strength and heart beyond,
I wish she'd stay mine
But her place is in some other time.

Goodbye forever, my darling, whether
I was everything you thought I'd be or not,
I was a bad man, oh, to stop you girl from loving me.

Body separating, ascend and release,
This tragedy is all my fault,
Reaching, desperately to salvage any piece,
This tragedy is all my fault.

This hurt won't, won't go away
This hurt won't, won't go away
This hurt won't, won't go away
This hurt won't, won't go away
This hurt won't, won't go away
This hurt won't, won't go away
This hurt won't, won't go away
This hurt won't, won't go away

And from the other side she'll save me,
Her courage, strength and heart beyond,
I wish she'd stay mine
But her place is in some other time.

Goodbye forever, my darling, whether
I was everything you thought I'd be or not,
I was a bad man, oh, to stop you girl from loving me.

Goodbye forever, goodbye forever (You won't be forgotten)
Goodbye forever, goodbye forever (You won't be forgotten)
Goodbye forever, goodbye forever (You won't be forgotten)
Goodbye forever, goodbye forever (You won't be forgotten)

Subtraction lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

The hurt across your face, your word against mine,
The rhythm you repeat, the beat a hair behind,
Were you on my side?

You gave your all, but you gave it once, a lesson that you thought,
You could teach it when you want, subtract me from your heart,
Little take away girl.

One step at a time,
You made us angry,
All your love could hide,
But we knew you were afraid.

We accept, we unaccept, we made up, we're breaking up,
You've thought you had enough, but maybe you didn't know,
That this stage holds a show.

One step at a time,
You showed us angry,
All your love could hide,
But we knew you were afraid.

Misery, I digress,
No recourse, no remorse,
Let it be, I confess
To every song that brought you back.
Misery, I digress,
No recourse, no remorse,
Let it be, I confess
To every song that brought you back.

The Homecoming lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

We are a living absolute
Stuck in an anguished innocence
This moment loved
I greet the sun
And wake from a war i could have won
Well in your arms I'll keep this memory to me
This kitchen floor won't reveal all the things I felt for you

Please level with me
Understand, I'd do anything for you
Seize any moment while you can
This void's coming after you
Cause loneliness is why you hurt
Just don't kill the messenger

The dust a-dance against my breath
The world awaken slowly dressed
A life unanswered in the light
With questions scattered in the night

And now my heart feels heavy
The weight will drag me down
You were the only reason
They'd find me here tonight

Please level with me
Understand, I'd do anything for you
Seize any moment while you can
This void's coming after you
Cause loneliness is why you hurt
Just don't kill the messenger

The Broken lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

I'll follow your every move in a stride that wills disguise
Little markings clue the find
Your red lips speak of painted figures
The teeth of mangled little listeners
The thoughts that hide your rusty scissors there
And hooded men are swinging honesty across this violence
Obscurity has no hero

The world looks better when you’re falling
Grace to comfort enough to crawling
Divided we must
Pray for the broken
No one could fix us
We are, we'll always be
The wronged

Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah

Your touch seethes of emptiness
The callous tips against the brush
The world's now breaking off to crust

The world looks better when you’re falling
Grace to comfort enough to crawling
Divided we must
Pray for the broken
No one could fix us
We are, we'll always be
The wronged

We’re conspiring

Where was your heart
When we needed it most?
Live in denial
And I'll be your ghost
There is nothing to let go
Only time will let you know
If you're worth anything
and you know then
That I'm giving up way too early
Let the axis turn you free
And destroy everything you love

The world looks better when you’re falling
Grace to comfort enough to crawling
Divided we must
Pray for the broken
No one could fix us
We are, we are
We are, we are
We are, we'll always be
The wronged

Guns Of Summer lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

If this is my last chance, keep it
I don't need your jokes
I'm better off without the misunderstanding
If I am displeasing, then leave me
The reason to all our worth
Would I truly care if we truly mean nothing?

Oh, have we been fed crazy?
or will the curtain save me
from my final pun?

No one will save us
You think that somebody cares
while the water is rising up?
Let the cleansing begin
Mother will they ever thank you?
Instead we hide behind these foolish lies
Ambitions have told us otherwise

Cold as winter, Guns of summer
Point and watch them run
Summer's will and debris in their son
This is your last chance, will you give up?

But in our turning towards the new
And disregarding these old ways
Will we gain some truth or suffer again?

Allow it as it breaks and showers our soul
Rain down fire and burn us all!

No one will save us
You think that somebody cares
while the water is rising up?
Let the cleansing begin
Mother will they ever thank you?
Instead we hide behind these foolish lies
Magicians have told us otherwise

Cold as winter, Guns of summer
Point and watch them run
Summer's will and debris in their son
This is your last chance, will you give up?

There is only one judge...it is yourself

Cold as winter, Guns of summer
Point and watch them run
Summer's will and debris in their son
This is your last chance, will you give up?
Run, summer's will and debris in their son
This is your last chance, will you, this is your last chance

(Cold as winter, guns) This is your last chance, will you give?
(Cold as winter, guns) This is your last chance, will you?
(Cold, cold) This is your last chance, will you give?
(as winter, guns) This is your last chance, will you?

Here We Are Juggernaut lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Keep your secrets in the dark
Nothing matters anymore
Body's breaking, drive me crazy

Oh this is not your place, no this is not your playground
It's my heart!
We were stupid, we got caught
But nothing matters anymore
So what? Here we are, juggernaut

Courage broken, lashed to scars
Can this love be what I want?
Body's breaking, driving me crazy (driving me crazy)
It's your fault!

We were stupid, we got caught
But nothing matters anymore
So what? Here we are, juggernaut,
Juggernaut

So let's hang us a hangman, we'll bury our burdens in blood
(Oh no) Oh so hang us a hangman, we'll bury our burdens in blood
Become stronger, juggernaut.

Answer me (did we take this too far?)
You've given all I could need (did we take this too far?)
Oh, but your kiss won't leave me be (did we take this too far?)
'Cause your teeth just won't stop
Chewing out my heart!

We were stupid, we got caught
Nothing matters anymore
So what?

Here we are, juggernaut!
Here we are, juggernaut!
Here we are, juggernaut!
Why? Why? Why?

Far lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

I welcome this pain
beating down on me
Is it your eyes
that choose not to see?

All I would do
if only you knew
All of my trust
was given to you

Oh, please, this is what I can give
What else do you need from me?
I might be sick, broken, torn to pieces
So, whatever this is, this thing that now I've become,
you hate it so much, you keep on running from it
No matter the distance, no matter how,
no matter how far

I buried this hurt,
concealed in this heart
Go lock all your doors,
these cold steps will warm

Oh, please, this is what I can give
What else do you need from me?
I might be sick, broken, torn to pieces
So, whatever this is, this thing that now I've become,
you hate it so much, you keep on running from it
No matter the distance, no matter how,
no matter how far

No matter how far

(Flies)
This is what I can give
What else do you need from me?
I might be sick, broken, torn to pieces
So, whatever this is, this thing that now I've become,
you hate it so much, you keep on running from it
No matter the distance, no matter how,
no matter how far

No, no matter how far
No, no matter how far
No, no matter how far
No, no matter how, no matter how far

This Shattered Symphony lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Oh, I'm giving up the one I love
I'll conduct the great disaster
To scar my skin to own this hurt

They offered their hearts
and we tore them apart
They offered their blood
and we left them so parched
I don't know if I can give you anything you want

Go on and give me the gun!
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice,
oh, they left me no choice

Go on and give me the gun!
Let me blow them open
It's out of my reach,
Never mind what they think about me

I don't want to say
that with mercy we decay
Converging closer and faster
Does all I touch turn to dust?

And she confessed her love
Only I shut her up
as I took all her words
and allowed them to rust
I don't know if I'm the man you truly want to love

Go on and give me the gun!
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice,
oh, they left me no choice

Go on and give me the gun!
Let me blow them open
It's out of my reach,
Never mind what they think about me

Little have they learned anything about me
Meddling eyes that judge mistakes
What awful things they say
when backs are turned
and no one's looking?

Go on and give me the gun!
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice,
oh, they left me no choice

Go on and give me the gun!
Let me blow them open
It's out of my reach,
Never mind what they think about me
In this shattered symphony
In this shattered symphony

Give me the gun!

World Of Lines lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

This is the hidden truth,
The world between the lines
Where there is no understanding us
These lines have marked divisions,
The weaker seek to malign
With this looming precious ending
There's no more room for reprimanding.

Oh, when the words are lightly thrown
In a world that's caught in a writer's web,
Humiliation reigns.

Just leave us alone,
If it's not worth the letting go,
It's trouble, woah, woah
Just leave us alone,
If it's not worth the letting go,
It's trouble, woah, woah

Communications breaking up,
The static cutting the lines
This lying liar's had his turn
You've managed nothing more
Than a pathetic attempt at attack,
But this heart is everlasting,
Pushing forward, never crashing.

Just leave us alone,
If it's not worth the letting go,
It's trouble, woah, woah
Just leave us alone,
If it's not worth the letting go,
It's trouble, woah, woah

State your case and go hide,
Leave us to your worst
I will never give in,
To the hurt of your lies
Cause there is no hope
For all your jokes.
And your plaguing insecurity
Now I'll play your enemy,
The only word you can find for me.

Just leave us alone,
If it's not worth the letting go,
It's trouble, woah, woah
Just leave us alone,
If it's not worth the letting go,
It's trouble, woah, woah

Just leave us alone, (In this world of lines)
If it's not worth the letting go, (the strong will decide)
It's trouble, woah, woah
Just leave us alone, (In this world of lines)
If it's not worth the letting go, (the strong will decide)
It's trouble, woah, woah

Made Out Of Nothing (All That I Am) lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Never mind all the lines, I'm coming
and there is no better part of me...you'll see
The darkest light, the blind I'll be
I accept that you chose to forget
the horrid thing you made of me, my dear
It is alright, it is so

The laughing feels so good
but the world misunderstood all I said,
there was no joke in what I meant

Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story
Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story

I've given up on all I loved, for
an honest moment of clarity
Well I need to feel alright, please let me breathe
In a life I made out of nothing
to cleanse this useless identity
Will you hear all the world and its whys? Just wait...

Will the latter half be as good?
Well if only I misunderstood
I weigh all this judgment, I've been blamed

Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story
Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story

I failed you, I fail
There's no understanding in miracles
when the worst, it always comes true
Ha-ha, I am the nothing you have saved

Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story
Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story

It eats us like cancer, we're hoping for something
Maybe an answer with all that you've done for me
I'll give you nothing
It eats us like cancer, we're hoping for something
Maybe an answer with all that you've done for me
Made out of nothing

Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing

Pearl Of The Stars lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Each night I wish to God he'd let her rest
Oh, this hurts me more than any man can bear
She's my angel from the west
There will never be one to take her place

When you go I will know
Follow you to the stars
And when the world burns apart
There'll be a place for your car

I'd give you everything
If only I'd have known you'd take it
But you don't, cause you're you
That's why I'll always love you
My Pearl of the stars

The pills she takes, the pain of which she drowns
Our baby sleeps, next door, she's new in town
I tell her how wonderful you were
I'll remember everything you were to me

When you go I will know
Follow you to the stars
And when the world burns apart
There'll be a place for your car

I'd give you everything
If only I'd have known you'd take it
But you don't, cause you're you
That's why I'll always love you
My Pearl of the stars

When you go I will know
Follow you to the stars
And when the world burns apart
There'll be a place for your car

I'd give you everything
If only I'd have known you'd take it
But you don't, cause you're you
That's why I'll always love you
My Pearl of the stars

In The Flame Of Error lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

I hate everything I am becoming.
This change is torture
There is never enough to give
only plenty to take, and this I wage

When the ground parts from below
Will it feel so?
How can I gain from another when the other goes?

This hand, this hurt, my heart
I'll flirt with disaster
Just know now man, the deal is off

I'll be no good
This time defines
I'll put my touch around the grip of this knife
These dirty hands just won't come clean
I'm a murderer, the worst these worlds will see

Mercy
Please leave her just a little bit longer
She's all my world
My love
I apologize
With that you will see the end of days
Just rest assured

'Cause they won't let her go and I remain so
Alone to work out a clever way to get her home
I will do what I must

I'll flirt with disaster
Just know now boy you're out of luck

I'll be no good
This time defines
I'll put my touch around the grip of this knife
These dirty hands just won't come clean
I'm a murderer, the worst these worlds will see

Oh, save me from defeat again
This is war
Murder the one so close
While she trusts, you curse
Die, my darling

If only you know now
how lovely you glow
in the flame of error

Oh, I ask too much
please turn back the clock and take me instead

How have you come to lose?
The only thing, the other 1 to your 2
I've become the wrong in everyone's sleep

Please burn me a God

I'll be no good
This time defines
I'll put my touch around the grip of this knife
These dirty hands just won't come clean
I'm a murderer, the worst these worlds will see

Oh, save me from defeat again
This is war
Murder the one so close
While she trusts, you curse
Die, my darling

I'll be no good
This time defines
I'll put my touch around the grip of this knife
These dirty hands just won't come clean
I'm a murderer, the worst these worlds will see

Oh, save me from defeat again
Oh, save me from defeat again

When Skeletons Live lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

She wheezes out her dying wish.
Come closer. One more moment, one more kiss
And I love her, I give her all I can
Her body sinks, her heat released
The curtain swings, this time she leaves
I will remember all she's done for me
But only I forgot that I'm not ready to let her go
As all time moves, you'll be riddled with doubt
You'll mourn to pull through, but love is dangerous

When skeletons live inside your closets, thick and thin
you'll fear that no one will hear us sing our songs
The truth is relevant, but not for long
'Cause love is our downfall

I'm sorry this life cuts out everything
and leaves you to scrounge for nothing (give us the monster)
There's no chance to try and mend,
whats been broken can't be bent
So the past remains the past until present
The cradle sways this black disguise
This chained coffin breathes our time's demise
All these shackles deceive just how long I've grieved

I made my move with no worry or doubt
Let them live as they do, my eternal reminder!

When skeletons live inside your closets, thick and thin
you'll fear that no one will hear us sing our songs
The truth is relevant, but not for long
'Cause love is our downfall

I'm sorry, but the hurt's not going away
I'll bury all the past,
Everything in it's place,
Give us the monster.

When skeletons live inside your closets, thick and thin
you'll fear that no one will hear us sing our songs
The truth is relevant, but not for long
'Cause love,

When skeletons live
When skeletons live
When skeletons live inside your closets, thick and thin
you'll fear that no one will hear

Ooh, I'm sorry this life cuts out everything
and leaves you to scrounge for nothing (give us the monster)
Cuts out everything and leaves you to scrounge for nothing (give us the monster)
Cuts out everything and leaves you to scrounge for nothing (give us the monster)

The Black Rainbow lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

You were all that we needed
To believe in our doubt
The hurt we allowed
We had sworn to believe them
And scattered across our memories found

You were all that we needed
To believe in our doubt
The worst I'm afraid
The hurt we allowed
We defined the lines and crossed
Into a great unknown to read all
The words we left out

In all, we all,
are truly afraid
In all, we are,
of the one thing we can't be
In all, we all,
are truly afraid
Wishing one day we could be strong

It's over, it's over
It's all coming apart
While you were sleeping, we were stealing your heart
It's over, it's over
It's all coming apart
Now I never let this go... I sang
It's over, it's over
It's all coming apart
While you were sleeping, we were stealing your heart
It's over, it's over
Coming apart
Now I never let this go... I sang
It's over, it's over
(Coming apart, coming apart)
While you were sleeping, we were stealing your heart
It's over, it's over
(Coming apart, coming apart)
Now I never let this go... I sang
It's over, it's over
Coming apart, I know, I know, you know, you know
It's over, it's over
Coming apart (it's over, it's over)

Chamberlain (Demo) lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Worlds are burning out to the endless shame of this mistaken way
We wither on and on in this game we play
Go ring on the bells of war and head straight into the lion's cage
You went and told your secrets here

So you can take to the grave
cause there is no stopping me, so long
Lungs hang in this dead man's curtain
Believe in me cause I won't believe in this

The end is now starting
oh, so please just take your seat
and live your last moments waving goodbye, desperately
Having a nice day while we're
swinging from gallows perched atop
Fool sit still, watch them, please take your number

Spill on through killing fields, the blood of desperate men can change
The thirst of a boy who breathes again

So you can take to the grave
but there is no stopping me
Lungs hang in this dead man's curtain
Believe in me cause I have been holding you back

The end is now starting
oh, so please just take your seat
and live your last moments waving goodbye, desperately
Having a nice day while we're
swinging from gallows perched atop
Fool sit still, watch them, please take your number

There is no room for words against them now
Cause you're my guiding light, they couldn't make a sound
Is there a way to say, to incriminate, oh, listen to me
Oh, well baby, open that door

So you can take to the grave
cause there is no stopping me, so long
Lungs hang in this dead man's curtain
Believe in me as I won't believe in this

The end is now starting
oh, so please just take your seat
and live your last moments waving goodbye, desperately
Having a nice day while we're
swinging from gallows perched atop
Fool sit still, watch them, please take your number

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Halle--

The Lost Shepherd (Demo) lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Heaven saves me a place at the window
I'm on my march to the end of me
I've buried cold within this heart
I lost the cure, the plague, the start
Oh, my lover I ache (I can't stand much)

I've done all of these things for you
Stain my soul to bleed with you
(Help us, help us, someone. Help us, help us)

Now wallow with sick and disease
To measure out a man I know I can't be
Go learn your turn and swallow a shepherd if they follow
Please grieve them as they grave goodbye

Here is my blood cause you will use up no other
I've hollowed this heart to hide you within (I can't stand much)

I'm so sick of these things I do
We're so... we're so... I blame you
(Help us, help us, someone. Help us, help us)

Now wallow with sick and disease
To measure out a man I know I can't be
Go learn your turn and swallow a shepherd if they follow
Please grieve them as they grave goodbye

You didn't, you could but there's nothing left oh no more after all
Shame you, you know that the secrets kept would one day kill us all.

I wallow through sick and disease
To measure out a man I know I can't be
Go learn your turn and swallow a shepherd if they follow
Please grieve them as they graze goodbye

Now wallow with sick and disease
To measure out a man I know I can't be
Go learn your turn and swallow a shepherd if they follow
Please grieve them as they grave goodbye

Hush lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Is there something I can do?
Given mistakes I caught you through
There's no limit to this,
just give us what we need

Should you stagger, should you fall
Remember this and remember them all
Your wretched design
and this is all your fault

They're going to press you
to leave now, we'll look through
and find you're no better when you left to go

Cause' there's just no one in this word like you, my darling dear
Can I go living on this life without you?
Let this be my dying wish, please give me more than this
You hurt so, please, I paid my price, my penance

Hush
There is no love or just
Enough to murder us
I am your ghost

Disturbed, you ponder these tainted dreams
No questions unanswered, your future sings
There are limits to love, now learn to fear it sting

You will shatter, you will fall,
lending help as your world dissolves
you can push on these walls
but help wont hear your call

They're going to press you to leave now
We'll look through
and find you're no better when you left to go

Cause' there's just no one in this word like you, my darling dear
Can I go living on this life without you?
Let this be my dying wish, please give me more than this
You hurt so, please, I paid my price, my penance

Hush
There is no love or just
enough to murder us
I am your ghost

"No matter what you tell yourself, ladies and gentlemen,
there is no end to the rainbow,
no greater good or purpose that you or I serve on this surface.
There is one thing that we can all look forward to doing, certainly, and that's dying.
Why waste your time wondering who you are
when there are plenty of things you aren't?
Let's give our evils a rest and put our hearts to work shall we?"

Cause' there's just no one in this word like you, my darling dear
Can I go living on this life without you?
Let this be my dying wish, please give me more than this
You hurt so, please, I paid my price, my penance

There's just no one in this word like you, my darling dear
Can I go living on this life without you?
Let this be my dying wish, please give me more than this
You hurt so, please, I paid my price, my penance

Hush
There is no love or just
enough to murder us
I am your ghost

Always And Never lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

If beauty sits the child's kiss
Of laughter I amend
Can you catch her if she runs?

With this I would share with you
All of this count to no end

Behind your sealed eyes you miss
All that I've done for you
Will you catch me when I run?

If timing play evident
What will you say when you're late?

Stay with me and fall asleep
Pray to God for no bad dreams

Stay with me and fall asleep
Pray to God for no bad dreams

Here... I'm still waiting here, my dear
For one kiss from you
So here... I'm still waiting here, my dear
To kill all of you
To kill all of you

Welcome Home lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

You could've been all I wanted
But you weren't honest
Now get in the ground
You choked off the surest of favors
But if you really loved me
You would've endured my world

Well if you're just as I presumed
A whore in sheep's clothing
Fucking up all I do
And if so here we stop
Then never again
Will you see this in your life

Hang on to the glory at my right hand
Here laid to rest is our love ever longed
With truth on the shores of compassion
You seem to take premise to all of these songs

You stormed off to scar the armada
Like Jesus played martyr,
I'll drill through your hands
The stone for the curse you have blamed me
With love and devotion, I'll die as you sleep
But if you could just write me out
To neverless wonder... happy will I become
Be true that this is no option,
So with sin I condemn you
Demon play, demon out!

Hang on to the glory at my right hand
Here laid to rest is our love ever longed
With truth on the shores of compassion
You seem to take premise to all of these songs

One last kiss for you
One more wish to you
Please make up your mind girl...
I'd do anything for you
One last kiss for you
One more wish to you
Please make up your mind girl...
Before I hope you die

Ten Speed (Of God's Blood And Burial) lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

I can feel it in the way your blood and heart beats
My body's cold and it thinks that I'm already gone
Or is it in the way your body moves
I'd like to tell you
But I think that you already know
The words I drag out from your mouth speak
So listen up world, listen up world
In her vision I have given company
They see no evil in leading their bodies from home

Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all
No but I don't buy it
Like anything you do, as anyone you are
Ten Speed, if I must... then I must

Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all
No but I don't buy it
Like anything you do, as anyone you are

If written wrote me even chance
And the choice to save you
I wouldn't answer if it even had to ask
In her figure I've instilled a taste of my own
So listen up world, listen up world
To make it easier to take what life I'm owed
As the curse has returned from the hell of your
Heart and your soul

Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all
No but I don't buy it
Like anything you do, as anyone you are
Ten Speed, if I must... then I must

Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all
No but I don't buy it
Like anything you do, as anyone you are

Nobody knows but you
Nobody knows but you
'Cause I don't want to ride tonight...
No I don't want to go
I don't want to ride tonight...
Or maybe I don't want to go

[Spoken:]
"But are you going to kill her off?"
"It's not your decision. I love the character, she stays."
"Yeah, well the only thing love's done is put you in this position; I say kill her off!"
"Yeah, but you say a lot of things... and how does that work? You're a bicycle"

Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all
No but I don't buy it
Like anything you do, as anyone you are
Ten Speed, if I must... then I must

Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all
No but I don't buy it
Like anything you do, as anyone you are

Cause I'm...
Ten Speed, of God's Blood & Burial [x7]
Ten Speed, of God's Blood

Crossing The Frame lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Home... a silence between glares
That stutters words misleading
Here... give me all you got
With one shot sent to lend me
No... here across the grass,
Between the glass
I know... you're not the one
I left to wait here, helping

I... I left in a sudden rush
And never said why
You... couldn't know
That I had no goodbyes

But I wish that you were
I'm spying on you, Newo
The way that you would've been if
I stayed here at home
I'm giving it up, Newo
How important I could've been to you

Press the steps I take to cross your door frame if
You decide to answer when my fist rings hello

I... I left in a sudden rush
And never said why
You... couldn't know
That I had no goodbyes

But I wish that you were
I'm spying on you, Newo
The way that you would've been if
I stayed here at home
I'm giving it up, Newo
How important I could've been to you

Casting quarters into wells that hold our dreams
You won't believe me... if I told you so
Casting quarters into wells that hold our dreams
You won't believe me... I wouldn't if you told me so

But I wish that you were
I'm spying on you, Newo
The way that you would've been if
I stayed here at home
I'm giving it up, Newo
How important I could've been to you

Apollo I: The Writing Writer lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

In these words that crash my ears
I now stomach this in fear
With the turn I gathered name as the bastard's son
Who by fire I would come
Through this wire I might cut
Atop this tower of loss and lust

I'll gravitate towards you
I will, in the now, hate you

I'll make you wish you hadn't burned our time before
I'll live through this in a manner cursed at my own accord

If my shame spills our worth across this floor
Then tonight, goodnight... I'm burning Star IV
Only I don't even think of you
No I don't wanna think of you anymore
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye

In my presence you might wake
Through this fiction I must fake
Your death to grace the face of my character
With these lessons he might learn
That all worlds from here must burn
For as God demands in the end we miss

If my shame spills our worth across this floor
Then tonight, goodnight... I'm burning Star IV
Only I don't even think of you
No I don't wanna think of you anymore
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye

[Spoken:]
There is no room for mistakes, my children.
for as I have been told....today is the day I die.
I'm sorry I never played the part as your father, as I should have,
and from the looks on your faces...it seems that's all you've ever asked of me
it is time for you to go into these worlds alone... with all of my love.
I'm sorry.
But I love you all so very much.

I'll make you wish you hadn't burned our time before
I'll live through this in a manner cursed at my own accord

I don't want to go
So come on bitch, why aren't you laughing now?
You left me here to fend on my own
So cry on bitch, why aren't you laughing now?

If my shame spills our worth across this floor
Then tonight, goodnight... I'm burning Star IV
Only I don't even think of you
No I don't wanna think of you anymore
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye

Only I don't even think of you
No, girl, I don't wanna think of you anymore
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye

Once Upon Your Dead Body lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

If hello could only drop its "O"
And it stayed in the front door's way
Of your home, would you live there still?
Could that make you everything I hate?
Wait...

Do you remember why you did it? (No, I don't)
Do you remember why she left?

No, I hope you die right now,
Will you drink my chemical?

Is there price to burn this paradise?
Where you left all parts that hurt to mend
If I don't stay awake
Will she come here again?
For my wish of only one last kiss

Do you remember why you did it? (No, I don't)
Do you remember why she left?
(Unless you did what you thought would be friend)
Do you remember why you did it?
Do you remember why she left?

No, I hope you die right now,
Will you drink my chemical?
And if you cry out loud,
It'll only make me feel too good
(Once upon your dead body)
[repeated w/ ad-libs]

Wake Up lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

I'm going to ride this plane out of your life again.
I wish that I could stay but you argue.
More than this I wish you could've seen my face
In backseat staring out the window.

I'll do anything for you,
Kill anyone for you.

So leave yourself intact
'Cause I will be coming back.
In a phrase to cut these lips,
I love you.

The morning will come
In the press of every kiss
With your head upon my chest
Where I will annoy you
With every waking breath
Until you decide to wake up.

I've earned through hope and faith
The curves around your face
That I'm the one you'll hold forever.
If morning never comes for either one of us,
Then this I pray to you wherever.

I'll do anything for you.
This story is for you.
('Cause I'd do anything you want me to... for you.)
I'll do anything for you,
Kill anyone for you.

So leave yourself intact
'Cause I won't be coming back.
In a phrase to cut these lips,
I loved you.

The morning will come
In the press of every kiss
With your head upon my chest
Where I will annoy you
With every waking breath
Until you decide to wake up.

The morning will come
In the press of every kiss
With your head upon my chest
Where I will annoy you
With every waking breath
'Til you decide to wake up.

The Suffering lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Is there a word or right to say
Even in this old fashioned way?
Go make your move, girl
I'm not coming home

Would things have changed if I could've stayed?
Would you have loved me either way?
Dressed to the blues.
Day to day with my collar up.

Decision sits so make it quick
A breath inhaled from an air so sick
I cursed the day I had learned
Of the web you spun...
You had your hold till bleeding

Hey, Hey!
If it was up to me
I would've figured you out
Way before the year clocked out
Oh, I hope you're waiting

Hey, Hey!
If it was up to me
I would've never walked out
So until the sun burns out
Oh, I hope you're waiting

Would we have lived as a child would care?
With this vial to drink I dare
(Oh where have you been, oh where have you been)
Only to cry all alone with your taste on tongue
(Oh where have you been if it hurts to be forgiving? Bye)

Should we try this again with hope? (Bye, bye)
Or is it lost, give up the ghost
And should I die all alone as I knew I would...
Then burn in hell young sinner

Hey, Hey! (Ha ha)
If it was up to me
I would've figured you out
Way before the year clocked out
Oh, I hope you're waiting
Oh, I hope you're waiting

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in

Hey, Hey!
If it was up to me (you had your hold)
I would've figured you out
Way before the year clocked out
Oh, I hope you're waiting

Hey, Hey!
If it was up to me (give up the ghost)
I would've never walked out (Oh where have you been, oh where have you been)
So until the sun burns out (Oh where have you been if it hurts to be forgiving?)
Oh, I hope you're waiting

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in
And you're not coming in

The Lying Lies & Dirty Secrets Of Miss Erica Court lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

They move too fast to be words behind your teeth
The give and go of most of your memories
But I'm not the one that they need pray for
If I've got it all then what does do
Leave it alone
Oh that once little boy we used to know
Are you willing... well?

Help!!!
Now off to the hell your God has sold
To find
That never again will you rely

On the words of your friends
In the unwritten end
For when you go they won't be following
Now sell all your friends
For the unwritten end
Cause when you go they won't be following him

I'll move the knife to show you of my cut
With the worst of truth from here
I drew no blood
So you're not as real just what I thought up
You're just a page I'll burn from a book
That has nothing to show
Of that once little boy we used to know
Am I killing you?

Help!!!
Now off to the hell your God has sold
To find
That never again will you rely

On the words of your friends
In the unwritten end
For when you go they won't be following
Now sell all your friends
For the unwritten end
Cause when you go they won't be following

No, no, I said "When you go they won't be following"
Whoa, no, I said "When you go they won't be following him"

Believer... believe it or not you'll know
When it ends and how it goes
[x2]

Mother May I lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Did you ever really think that you'd
Expose the truth that pains the page?
And in their asking, did you see their lie,
The motive true and earnest side
Four in the morning, should they wake up?
Or see them precious in this sleep?
Every step should break the same
With every move and every need

So run little children, play
I'll leave the light off to turn your mother on
So run little children, play
I'll leave the light off to turn your mother on

Could you ever really wish of them?
One of your games and counts of truth
With every moment you'll trace the doubt
And of the premise what about?
Will they ever really see an end
Or does it matter now from then?
What of their love for once pronounced
And of this love a loss without

So run little children, play
I'll leave the light off to turn your mother on
So run little children, play
I'll leave the light off to turn your mother on

I should have known

God only knows when your word isn't pure
And the blood on your hands isn't yours
I won't believe any word that you tell
And I won't drink the blood if it spills

So give them the story they want...
You too
So give them the story they want...
A kiss to you girl before you fall down and leave me
[x2]

So give them the story they want...
You too, before you leave me
[x4]

God only knows when your word isn't pure
And the blood on your hands isn't yours
I won't believe any word that you tell
And I won't drink the blood if it spills
[x2]

The Willing Well I: Fuel For The Feeding End lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Is this what I wish for those and all they know?
Could depend on how cowardly I should act
If she won't give me the love I came here for
With pen I am armed here to react

Hey now, hey now what is it boy?
All the things that trouble you
So visit your mirror image
Of what might have once behaved
Hey now, hey now what is it boy?
But I won't rest till dead, till dead do you part

This is how I feel my God from what's been dealt
The flies that flutter fight tonight
Is it love that I'm feeling or is this hate the same
The emotion's enough to kill the sane

Hey now, hey now what is it boy?
All the things that trouble you
So visit your mirror image
Of what might have once behaved
Hey now, hey now what is it boy?
Besides, I only hope you know that I love you.
Oh I hope.

Feed little maggots off the Westside of your sin
Run little maggot do they learn of what you did
Feed little maggots off the Westside of your sin
Run little maggot do they learn of what you did

(Feliz sería que hora) [x4]

From start to finish I've made you feel this
Uncomfort in turn with the world you've learned
To love through this hate to live with its weight
A burden discerned in the blood you taste

Why would you deny me answers?
If I'm just a boy on the break of being
Horror and hell through its fires
Be brutally honest, was it better before me?

In the curve of your body
How I want, how I want her with me
The truth of the story
The Vishual, I wish you all

The better end of all to come
The truth be now here one by one
I am to you extend to none
The memory that fuels the fire

Watching his tale with the words he unfolds
Conscience and cold we'd never know
They scream as he laughs off the dust from his eyes
These words will now learn of the dreams in his mind

Could this be that hard for me?
To configure a new love in vain
To my new entity or banish it home to the grave
No one is safe

With the quickness strike out for the less of us doubt
Mercy of the man who put the pen in our mouth
Word write us well signed, "Forgiveness for sale"
I'm through being full
Of all the might you want killed
The fiction will see the real
The answer will question still
In your body to blood as your parents once went
You will follow their lead one by one, every step

Could this be that hard for me?
To configure a new love in vain
To my new entity or banish it home to the grave
I will not save...
Your world
Your world in the end and you.
Your world
Your world

The Willing Well II: From Fear Through The Eyes Of Madness lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

What is this that I feel and what is this that I fear?
In these arms that whored out amongst the worms
That mate in these fields, oh
From pressure to pain I wish to stay awake
In the measure I test with your love for me
So shout against these walls
With hope that one will break free
So hear me...

What is this that you keep selling me, boy?
I'm not gonna hold your hand here when you walk
You'll burn in hell while they're digging you out
You'll burn in hell while they're digging you out
I'm not gonna hold your hand here when you walk
You'll burn in hell while they're digging you out
You'll burn in hell while they're digging you out

So picture this face and burn it to flake
To shelter it at home at the fireplace
And all but memory will fade
With the flick of the flame
So I have a secret that no one should know
That I shouldn't tell
But of all the... but of all the worlds
This one won't feel...
This one just won't leave me well

What is this shit you keep selling me, boy?
I'm not gonna hold your hand here when you walk
You'll burn in hell while they're digging you out
You'll burn in hell while they're digging you out
I'm not gonna hold your hand here when you walk
You'll burn in hell while they're digging you out
You'll burn in hell

In the press of your back
Do you feel the shore swell?
Oh boy, I'm eating my way back home
[x2]

As father told son in the make of his final escape
Should all good boys die with God at their side,
At the grace of His gates?
No, the Robot holds none with the mind
And a heart to comply
Then I will disguise and grieve of those dead
When I'm given the time

Run, little rabbit...
Go hide in the blades of that grass...
Run, rabbit, run

Should capture be our earnest fault?
Breathe up through lust and I'll find your cure
In there I'll kill, kill
In there I'll kill, kill, kill

With your last breath of air
As the Earth comes trembling down
Would you give her this last night
And give up your life

With your last breath of air
As the Earth comes trembling down
Would you give her this last night
The love of your life

No one runs faster than you can
No one runs faster than you
No one runs faster than you eat
(To the end with you... to the end with you)
[x5]

The Willing Well III: Apollo II: The Telling Truth

In the worst of all your fears
You have come so far to hear
That in turn they've showered your name
As the laughing stock
Now by fire you must hang
As my word holds course through vein
You will walk to the end of days
I'll gravitate towards you
I will, in the now, hate you
These days are numbered
This close encounter
To the heartland, through the madness

I'll make you wish
You hadn't burned our time before
I'll live through this
In a manner cursed at my own accord

I don't want to go
So come on bitch
Why aren't you laughing now?
You left me here to fend on my own
So cry on bitch,
Why aren't you laughing now?

In my presence
You will make sure the fiction meets its fate
That death will grace your face my dear character
Through these lessons you have learned
All the worlds from here must burn
For as God demands that the end we miss

I'll make you wish
You hadn't burned our time before
I'll live through this
In a manner cursed at my own accord

I don't want to go
So come on bitch
Why aren't you laughing now?
You left me here to fend on my own
So cry on bitch,
Why aren't you laughing now?

If my shame spills our worth across this floor
Then tonight, goodnight, I'm burning Star IV
Only, I don't even think of you
No, I don't wanna think of you... anymore
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye

If, then should they come home
With failed attempt we'll know
I won't leave a stone unturned
These worlds will surely burn

Wait
But what did I do to... to deserve all of you

Jesse, bad boy
Just come look at what your brother did,
To that girl's precious little whore of a body
[x4]

I'll make you wish
You hadn't burned our time before
I'll live through this
In a manner cursed at my own accord

I don't want to go
So come on bitch
Why aren't you laughing now?
You left me here to fend on my own
So cry on bitch,
Why aren't you laughing now?

If my shame spills our worth across this floor
Then tonight, goodnight, I'm burning Star IV
Only, I don't even think of you
No, I don't wanna think of you... anymore
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye

Well, I don't wanna think of you
No girl, I don't wanna think of you... anymore
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye
Goodnight, tonight, goodbye

The Willing Well IV: The Final Cut lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

In the final curtain call
You left me here with the coldest of feelings
Weight, kind, depression
Blessing the floor with the places you've stepped in

Will they ever measure up
To the way you left me?
Here by the roadside
The bloodiest cadaver
Marked in your words:
I'm the joke,
I'm the bastard

Here wait, so I guess that you knew
That you're a selfish little whore
I'm the selfish little whore
If I had my way I'd crush your face in the door

This is no beginning, yeah yeah
This is the final cut, open up
This is no beginning, yeah yeah
This is the final cut, I'm in love

The Ring In Return lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

[phone rings]
[woman walks to phone and picks up]

[woman:]
Hello.

[music begins]

[Man:]
Hello Apollo.
Where should I begin?

In Keeping Secrets Of Silent Earth: 3 lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

A broad incision sits across the evening
The victim to our fathers lost war
The restless children sit and mourn the graves
Of those they've never seen before
Will they be buried here among the dead?
In the silent secret

[Chorus:]
The pioneers
In dealing with it they march for dawn, of Will and worthy
The truth be told the child was born
Man your own jackhammer
Man your battle stations
We'll have you dead pretty soon
And now
Sincerely written from my brother's blood machine
Man your battle stations
We'll have you home pretty soon
And now

Awake through motion with curiosity to curtain your first move
Over arms length they'll break protocol
Jealous envy for the youngest one
To be the hero is all I'll ask
Can I be buried here among the dead?
With room to honor me here in the end
You'll be better off too soon
You'll be better off when you get home

[Chorus]

For you,
I'd do anything just to make you happy, hear you tell me that you're proud of me
For them,
I'll kill anything cut the throats of babies for them break their hearts for they were them
Waiting for you to say: I love you too

The navigator
The pilot
Her favorite
The one they call the vision that bears the gift
[x2]

Will,
Do the children really understand the things you did to them?
And why oh why...
Should they conjure up the will for you my love I would kill him
We're coming home pretty soon
Coming home

In the seventh turning hour
Will the victims shadow fall?
Should the irony grow hungry?
With the victory and all they sought for
We were one among the fence
One among the fence

[Guitar riffs and vocalizing]

We're coming home

Man your own jackhammer
Man your battle stations
We'll have you dead pretty soon
And now
Sincerely written from my brother's blood machine
Man your battle stations
We'll have you home pretty soon
'Til then...

Cuts Marked In The March Of Men lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Listen to the world out on the outside pressing in
are you ready on my mark?
fingers given names and with the last word they ascend
on the comfort of their well being...in arms
into something they can't stop but wish that they could kill
you're the answer to their prayer

[Chorus:]
in your last hour stand
you'll notice the one that you had loved in dreams is here among the others
chase it's you I want but if I can't have her
then why should I spend any more time in a world that's going to end pretty soon?
I need you now more than I ever did
I'll hand myself over for you
this comlink's lost its frequency and I feel that we're coming home short
here take me instead I'd rather not see her off alone

scattered amongst the killing streets the children slate defense
is god's work to have us fail?
rivered blood streams out the dead as bodies foul the air
I'll make peace when this is done
in arms...we storm
slowly the streets begin to fill with new flesh bound to bone
armed and ready it begins again...

[Chorus]

tonight we storm
tonight...

deliver a favor to my love [x4]

[Chorus]

Three Evils (Embodied In Love And Shadow) lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Across the floor in the hand of where we drove the drill
A cautious ear to the mouth of your confession
Think of all the things we put him through
In the face of his god would he tell the truth?

Still recorded were the words that dribbled out his kiss
When eyes go blind in this man of what could once become
Sever the limbs off his torso in sleep
And burn what remains so the world may now see
No longer...will we wait for your answers
Back to the hell where you've come from
Think of all the times you once had
Write them in a letter that says "goodbye"

You'll listen to reason while you're face down in the dirt
You'll stomach the hurt and break for him here just how much he's worth

Slowly discarded were the remains of his lonely youth
Among the alley where the dwellers scare to notice
Picture a young boy in pieces and streets with leveled malfunctions
No name to be called redeemer
We'll fix him restore him...with the love is no other
Think of all the things you did before
Write them in a letter that says reborn

You'll listen to reason while you're face down in the dirt
You'll stomach the hurt and break for him here just how much he's worth

Following you across the interstate walking away...I'll fire on
Following you across the interstate walking away...I'll fire on
Following you across the interstate walking away...I'll fire on

On the wrong way out
On the causeway to neverwhere
On the wrong way out
On the causeway to neverwhere
On the wrong way out
On the causeway to neverwhere

Dear my friends in the time we've spent forever
after beyond this when will our nightmare ever end?
Dear my friends in the time we've spent forever
after beyond this when will our nightmare ever end?

Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops...
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops...
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops...
Forever you will, forever you will learn
[3x]

The Crowing lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

I fed the clues of a lost day killed in motion
But I thought of it so like there's no other way it could've been done
Will they size my fit for a puzzle I wish not to play a part in it.
A heart stained in hate, a feeling of fear will play circles.

But you, you were my favorite
But you, you know, you were my favorite

I severed my ties to shroud this body under the streets of this city
And wait for the day when I am summoned to walk across the face
Well, slowly but clearer now, in visions that play and plague memories
I loved them with all as the son should to mother and father

But you, you were my favorite
But you, you know, you were my favorite

Would I walk through the door, shedding the light of all life?
With the rise and reform, would I come as before?
Pray you're not the only one
Pray you're not the only...
If given mistakes, would I take them back?
If erasing them could, if erasing them would
But would they be the words that I would say?
Your face and a door between
I've parted three ways
For you, the Newo that I love... love...

Did you ever really know before my face shamed to break?
Did you ever really know before my mind scared to think?
Did you ever really know before my name son to these?
Did you, did you, did you come clean in the end from the start?

Dear Ambellina, the Prise wishes you to watch over me
Dear Ambellina, the Prise wishes you to watch over me

I fought the decisions that call and lost
My mark has the revelant piece in this
I will come reformed
In short, for the murders of those I court
I bless the hour that holds your fall
I will kill you all!!

I will call you out from shelter (I will call you out)
burn your wings you'll know no better (burn your wings)
I will call you out from shelter (I will call you out)
burn your wings and learn their letters (burn your wings)

I will call you out from shelter (Dear Ambellina, the Prise wishes you to watch over me)
burn your wings you'll know no better (burn your wings)
I will call you out from shelter (Dear Ambellina...) (I will call you out)
burn your wings and learn their letters (...to watch over me)

Blood Red Summer lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Faint white figures paint my sleep
please don't tell my secrets keep them hidden (you got it, you got it, you got it)
if the words that matter reach your face from floor
will you be wondering if, or (do I need what is given or honest)
does it cost me scarring if the words stay true
even number your nephew (I don't want it, don't want it, don't want it anymore)

[Chorus:]
and when the answer that you want
is in the question that you state
come what may
come what may
[x2]

in a pain that buckles out your knees
could you stop this if I plead (you got it, you got it, you got it)
so destined I am to walk among the dark
a child in keeping secrets from (will they know what I've done in the after)
in the sought for matter when the words blame you
in a blood red summer I'll give you (I don't want it, don't want it, don't want it)

[Chorus]

what did I do to deserve
what did I do to deserve
this? this?
[x2]

[ad libs]
wa oh wa ooooh
wa oh oh oh woah

what did I do to deserve
what did I do to deserve
this? this?
[x3]

what did I do to deserve
what did I do

The Camper Velourium I: Faint Of Hearts lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

With the worries that I'd give her in they told the worst of me
With my wanting just to hold your neck in my arms and feel me squeeze
No I'm not going to give you what you want so if you please
The sin that shapes your voice carries my ears this new disease

[Chorus:]
Did somebody take your tongue?
In worries of the words that you couldn't say if they could've saved them from
But I don't want to sleep without so I bid to you goodnight
Tonight, sleep tight, my love

The anxious through the calming storm you'll sit as you pray for rain
I'll touch it if you ask me to but how is up to you
No I'm not going to let you get up if you struggle willingly
I'll favor all your form to show you how its been done to me

[Chorus]

With all the words you say...you'll save

You were so well behaved
As you arched and made your way
This gift for you engraved
The shift as you stretch your legs
You were so well behaved
You were so well
Who taught these tricks that make...you were so well behaved

If the world stops turning girl you better not stop when I say
If there was nothing you could do to stop it why'd you try
Then the ground starts parting through the silence as you woke up the dead
Everything here dies alone...

But I'm not quite sure what you've been told
On labor day, Uh, I'm not starting with you but the faint of heart
While worries wait
But I'm not quite sure what this unfolds
On labor day, Uh, I'm not starting with you but the faint of heart

[Chorus]

(With all the words you say)
Did somebody take your tongue?
In worries of the words that you couldn't say if they could've saved them from
(With all the words you say)
But I don't want to sleep without so I bid to you goodnight
Tonight, sleep tight, my gun

The Camper Velourium II: Backend Of Forever lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Rocked silent in a soft lullaby
panic stirred me awakened by a ringing phone in time
where and when would I see her?
Crazy were the words that scribbled out your mouth
I stuttered replacing your face to those words
where and when would I kill her?
I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this
I, I'll wish... to the bitter end of my day
Well, where were you?

[Chorus:]
So you had your turn and you made it work
now I'm the laughing stock of your joke
as crazy as it may seem I cried for you when you
told me to date all of the things that made you end up in my life
and I'll believe anything I have no luck with girls
I overheard that you were unhappy too
misleading toss into a relationship that makes no sense
over and out Connecticut
but you had your back turned there as you faded away
to the end of my day I found out
you weren't worth what I thought of you
what I thought of you

write this down in your diary you abuse
can we make plans can I just get through to you
is this weird...do I scare her?
I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this
I, I'll wish... that you could share the love you'd shared with others, with me

[Chorus]

This isn't love so forever let it go...forever let it burn
This isn't love there on the backend of forever
I wish I would never hurt again [w/ ad libs]

The Camper Velourium III: Al The Killer lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

At birth given scars along tender heart liberties
injustice for awkward living situated casualties
they lay dead along your floor
careful not to wake them they're sleeping
in the morrows good mourning
the dying will discard the wish to live

Let this colony know in the name of the dead we're coming

When I kill her, I'll have her
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name
Die white girls, die white girls
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon the graves of the dead

You'll get nothing for something
arise the hidden war of a dead song, unsung
the night of your children's day
beneath the surface sealed by the floors boarded up
seal the lips of your voice with haste
and cower at the sounds as they make their way
surprise speed and malice
the opposing break the surface hold ready

Let this colony know in the name of the dead we're coming

When I kill her, I'll have her
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name
Die white girls, die white girls
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon the graves of the dead

Will the killing veil love should the heroes play dumb
but killing's no fun when the heroes are none

Let this colony know in the name of the dead we're coming

Bye, bye world, bye, bye world
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name
Die white girls, die white girls
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon the graves of the dead

Bye, bye world, bye, bye world
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name
Die white girls, bye, bye world
Dance upon the graves of the dead, upon the graves of the dead,
Upon the graves of the dead, upon the graves!

A Favor House Atlantic lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Your eyes tell the stories of a day you wish you could
Recall the moments that once have
Retract the footsteps that brought us to this favor
I wouldn't ask this of you

Good eye, sniper
Here I'll shoot, you run
The words you scribbled on the walls
With the loss of friends you didn't have
I'll call you when the time is right
Are you in or are you out?
For them all to know the end of us all

Run quick, they're behind us
Didn't think we'd ever make it
This close to safety in one piece
Now you wanna kill me in the act of what could maybe
Save us from sleep and what we are

Good eye, sniper
Now I shoot, you run
The words you scribbled on the walls
With the loss of friends you didn't have
I'll call you when the time is right
Are you in or are you out?
For them all to know the end of us all

Bye bye beautiful
Don't bother to write
Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars
Face step, let down.
Face step, step down.

The words you scribbled on the walls
With the loss of friends you didn't have
I'll call you when the time is right
Are you in or are you out?
For them all to know

Bye bye beautiful
Don't bother to write
Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars
Face step, let down.
Face step, step down.

Bye bye beautiful
Don't bother to write
Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars
Face step, let down.
Face step, step down.

The Light & The Glass lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

Slowly the pen touches paper in the guidance of the words that you write.
Memories roll in; of the things you once did
and who you had shared them with is somebody thinking of you.
Did I bother telling you this, with the words that cross teeth and jump lips?
A poor choice of words, in wanting to tell you anything.
But words don't come with ease. They're forever my hurt.
Would it really matter, if you were to count the days left with your hands?
Your focus secure and the loves you left; well
smiles staged in photographs here until...

You, you left the light on.
There's a chance I might have tripped, girl
You were there to hold on.

[Chorus:]
Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother;
kill or be killed spilled the words from your mother.
I'll lay awake for a while.
I'll leave the light on a while.
But you couldn't last a lifetime. Caught between here and the days of it;
carving her name across your arm with every wish. It's hit or miss... her.
I told you so. I measured distance in lines departing the rest of my life.

But you, you, you... you had better things to do [x2]
Liar, liar, liar, liar. [x6]

[Chorus]

If you get put to sleep, like an old dog, you're better off.
If you get put to sleep;
I've been cautious with the words I extend.
Allow this year before the world starts to end.

Your father's dead. He passed in his sleep,
and I woke to the sounds of her crying.
[x3]

Your father's dead. He passed in his sleep.

Pray for us all. [to fade]

2113 lyrics - Coheed And Cambria

In our sleep, there's more to this nightmare.
Will she beg for your mercy?
Slowly but sure, I'm hoping what comes in the absence of love.
At night, she'll kick and she'll fight, should they fill in his sight?
At night, I'll worry from all, the end of us all.

Please mom, they're coming for me.
Please mom, run lock your door, they're coming for me.

When the clock reads 21:13.
All work will stop,
And the ground will relieve.

Please mom, they're coming for me.
Please mom, run lock your door, they're coming for...

When I fall asleep,
Your face is all I see...
Dear momma I love.
I fall asleep,
Your face is all I dream...
Dear momma I love.

Ohhhhhhh...
In your frame you'll be this well.
In the face you miss the most,
You'll see them soon...stop.
I bid you fair warning,
Stay up 'til you...
When the memories occur,
Of a life you haven't lived.
Stay still, you will.
I've got a secret to hide,
And I've got a secret to hide...

In the words,
Of father to son.
Thy Kingdom Come.

Whoa whoa whoa..
Whoa whoa whoa..
Whoa whoa whoa..
Whoa whoa whoa..

Please mom, they're coming for me.
Please mom, run lock your door, they're coming for...

When I fall asleep,
Your face is all I see...
Dear momma I love.
I fall asleep,
Your face is all I dream...
Dear momma I love.

Whoa whoa whoa.
Whoa whoa whoa.
When I fall asleep.
Whoa whoa whoa.
Whoa whoa whoa.
When I fall asleep...

Those days we lost our dignity,
The eager dare to stand.
The ride home through victory,
On the innocent they tread.

But IRO-Bot will never die.
IRO-Bot will never die.
But IRO-Bot will never die.
But IRO-Bot will never die...
