"Philosopher King" lyrics
"Philosopher King"
Dry crossing up the holy five hate
Your cousin is my hobby, free throw
I'd toss my calling card, but I'd hate to make a baby feel slow
Nope, bro
There's lots of answers to shit
Like the numbing that you feel is real, then pain grows
You'll get for what you asked
Patience is the lane I mate with, case closed
If I fall, will you be there
To catch me now, catch me now?
Or if I fall, will you be there
To show me how, show me how
I've fallen, fallen, fallen, fallen?
All cranky in a blanket with a lazy eye
Same pigeon that was shitting on the other guy
Why yo' fitness need a witness?
I too can cook a bunch of little meals
(Friend, friend, make my life)
(Friend, friend, make my life)
I picked 'em up and clipped their hype
It was the tamest type, the little bitch couldn't listen
I flipped it up and twisted night into a padded white room
Bitch named "Kristen"
I will run laps around you, around you
Go on, try, tug me back to you, but I'll fly
Guess they were right
No way to drag your body and make up the time
So I'll focus on mine, not gonna hold me down
I'm leaving you behind
Won't say that you're better
Won't sell you a better lie
Won't tell you etcetera
Won't say that you're doing fine
If your life never turns around, (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
If you should die tomorrow or the week after next
I know that I will be safe and sound (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I won't be there cleaning up all the mess
All cranky in a blanket with a lazy eye
Same pigeon that was shitting on the other guy
Why yo' fitness need a witness?
I too can cook a bunch of little meals
I felt my body craving
The oxygen from ancient wasteland aching
I wanna be the man with the bacon
Make a light reveal the only stake in fakeness, fucked
I will run laps around you, around you
Go on, try, tug me back to you, but I'll fly
Guess they were right
No way to drag your body and make up the time
So I'll focus on mine, not gonna hold me down
I'm leaving you behind

Coheed And Cambria - "Welcome Home" You could have 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 have endured my world
Well if you're just as I...
Every Time I Die - "Map Change" Am I the only one that saw the sun burn out?
The locusts keep their rhythm. My watch has broken down.
I wake up and take on water, sink to the peak of despair.
What I need is a cigarette. No more...
Too Close To Touch - "Eiley" How can you say this was all part of your plan?
Start explaining
Crafted from hope and hospital beds, she's gone
And honestly
You fed a dose of comatose to what I love most
Death is not a game with...
I The Mighty - "Pet Names" I'm sick. I think I'm on the brink.
Turn the TV up so that I can fall asleep
And drown out all of my thoughts.
The ones in which you love to haunt me...
Stoned, feet on the cement.
Cursing at myself...
Oh, Sleeper - "Oxygen" Oxygen, oxygen, oxygen
Oxygen, oxygen, oxygen
Underestimated and far from the grave
The brighter the fire, the sharper, the blade
And the undertaker awaits me
But this body's for the pyre
So ash...
