Motion City Soundtrack - Heavy Boots Lyrics

Motion City Soundtrack Lyrics

"Heavy Boots"

Long live the echoes of my despair
Dissolving into nothing
I swear they'll never take me alive
They'll never pull my strings again

Sometimes I think I just need to vent
A million little pieces
Other times the feelings get too intense
I want to cut them out

I see the evidence piling up
That we are nothing special
Shrapnel just hurdling through the void
Soon to be history

Staring at the ocean
Waiting for the world to end
Skating on the surface
Trying hard to comprehend
Wishing on a moment
Searching for the answer

Most days I really don't have a clue
Everything's overrated
Each night ends looking for things to do
A pathetic mystery

Bright lights devouring every sound
That says the truth is out there
But I can't see anything through
The blue, the black, the in-between

Staring at the ocean
Waiting for the world to end
Skating on the surface
Trying hard to comprehend
Wishing on a moment
Searching for the answer

Destiny is finally erased
Hope for me and I don't care

No. I don't care

I see the evidence piling up
That we are nothing special
I swear they'll never take me alive
They'll never pull my strings I'm

Staring at the ocean
Waiting for the world to end
Skating on the surface
Trying hard to comprehend
Wishing on a moment
Searching for the answer

Destiny is finally erased
Hope for me
Erased hope for me
Erased hope for me
And I don't
