"Suicidal Evangelist" lyrics
"Suicidal Evangelist"
I can read the paper in a thousand different ways
And I can tell you how I'm feeling, but only when I'm on stage
And I can tell it's understood, 'cause I can hear it in your smile
Curving round your words and downwards in a spiral
Those big container ships, you never see 'em move
But you turn away to talk and they're right in front of you
I cherry picked the fights I was willing to ignite
A suicidal evangelist took me for a ride
It's not what I wanted, but I think this will do
I flew like an anvil before I found you
I was sick of the comforts the stains on my hands
But when I crawl up beside you I start to make plans
And I think of myself now as what you tell me you see
I don't cry in the morning and I smile when I sleep
The cold snap of those lights as I walk through the dark
I forget all those old lines 'cause I got a new part
Now when I see that old stranger he goes to tip his hat
Looks around to check the time and disappears just like that
I get to cherry pick the nights I extend the invites
Dear suicidal evangelist, you're full of shit and I won't die
It's not what I wanted, but I think this will do
I flew like an anvil before I found you
I was sick of the comforts the stains on my hands
But when I crawl up beside you I start to make plans
And I think of myself now as what you tell me you see
I don't cry in the morning cause I like what I see
The cold snap of those lights as I walk through the dark
I forget all those old lines 'cause I got a new part
Look, suicidal evangelist, there's no more room in my heart
There's no more room in my heart
There's no more room in my heart
There's no more room in my heart
There's no more room in my heart
There's no more room in my heart
There's no more room in my heart
There's no more room in my heart
There's no more room in my heart

Allday - "You Always Know The DJ" Don't you know going crazy
Almost certain it's just your age
Don't you know going crazy
Wash the goodness down the drain
Just like a singer
A singer in your favourite band
Feel like a winner
But I...
Thornhill - "Lily & The Moon" You're so sweet
I was in the deep
Under the moonlight
In the wind
I made my escape
To come and find you
All for you
I lost it all when I lost you
Take me to the moon
So I can get away
There must...
Luca Brasi - "This Selfish Love" In the small place when I'm feeling up to it
When I'm not choking up, not completely fucking it
Maybe it's best not to know what's next?
When the cheap retreat from the August breeze
Could blow me...
Jack River - "Infinity Roses" Infinity roses as she walks by
And all the angels surround her tonight
Light years and a thousand heavy miles
And every piece of salty water
That runs from your eyes
They can hold you down
But they...
Yours Truly - "Funeral Home" Oh, look, yeah, we're back here again
It's the same shit, saying bye to a friend
With a tight throat and oh, we're crying again
And oh, we're crying again
It's grown so old, but we all still pretend...
