"Vital Signs" lyrics
"Vital Signs"
This building is barely standing
On its own foundation
On its own foundation
I've collapsed its lungs
Calloused its heart and sucked the life out of this
For all of Sunday to see
For all of Sunday to see
I've collapsed its lungs
Calloused its heart and sucked the life out of this
For all of Sunday to see
For all of Sunday to see
I've taken the breath out of everything they believe
Everything they hold true
Everything they hold true
Preaching to the deaf and blind, no one sees my effort
Preaching to the deaf and blind, no one gets the point
No one sees my effort
No one gets the point
Welcome to my dying home (Dying home)
Welcome inside these crumbling walls
A meaningless handshake greets them all with smiles of false hope
Welcome to my dying home (Dying home)
Welcome inside these crumbling walls
Do I even care as I watch a sea of people
Dwindling into an audience of skin and bones
An audience who doesn't have the strength to walk out on a man
Who has tarnished their faith?
Out of everything they believe (They believe)
I've taken the breath out of everything they believe
Preaching to the deaf and blind, no one sees my effort
Preaching to the deaf and blind, no one gets the point
Thanks to Jonah for correcting these lyrics.

You radiate in your self-love
I am the life you're afraid to charm
My dear I mean no harm
You have little and you have taken too much
It's time I call your...
For Today - "Flesh And Blood" I won't go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I'd walked away from everything that could save me.
I won't go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I once was blind, but now I see...
Between The Buried And Me - "Mordecai" Asleep mid-sentence- the words fell apart
No one is listening anyway
This day will soon turn black and my "wants and needs" will spill on my burning ashes
I learned to be selfish today
I learned to...
Norma Jean - "Memphis Will Be Laid To Waste" Waltz around the room, with a glaze in your stare.
In your tuxedo suit. I'll give it a name. Lower
defenses. I'll lower the casket. Open the door.
Open the grave. Murder. Now you're doing the waltz...
