#124: Stitches - Haste the Day

Haste the Day

Genre: Metalcore



Five words;
Five words is all it would take
Five words to change your heart and mind
In the heat of the sun I know you’re the only one
You still can’t hold yourself together

Alone... Alone...
All alone you have this conversation to satisfy your most intimate inner thoughts
Then you bite your lip when it matters most
A shade of red in sight
Can you taste the blood?
Taste it on your lips

Rip the seam
Then I’ll show you how the strings become the stitches in your mouth
In your silence we are louder
When the strings become the stitches in your mouth

Your growing imagination preparing you for what your heart requires to say
Then you bite your lip when it matters most
A shade of red in sight
Can you taste the blood
Taste it on your lips

Rip the seam
Then I’ll show you how the strings become the stitches in your mouth
In your silence we are louder
When the strings become the stitches in your mouth

Five words, repeating over in your head
That’s all you ever have to do
Five words
Is it really that hard to say you’re worth more than this?
1) You’re 2) worth 3) more 4) than 5) this

Rip the seam
Then I’ll show you how the strings become the stitches in your mouth
In your silence we are louder
When the strings become the stitches in your mouth

#123: I Don't Want to Set the World On Fire


Genre: Vocal

Note: In honor of Fallout 3... I had to.



I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart
In my heart I have but one desire
And that one is you, no other will do.

I've lost all ambition for wordly acclaim
I just want to be the one you'd loved
And with your admission that you feel the same
I'll have the reason to go I'm dreaming of believe me.

I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart

(I've lost all ambition for worldly fame)
I just want to be the one you'd loved
(And with your admission could you feel the same)
I'll have the reason to go I'm dreaming you believe me.

I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart...

#122: The Battle - Living Sacrifice

The Battle
Living Sacrifice

Genre: Metalcore/Death Metal

Note: in light of these lyrics finally surfacing somewhere, I thought I had to make a post.



Heated steel hammered straight
Unified Spirit speaks, implements of life
Destroyer of death
This blade is splattered with red
Symbolic of the spirit of death
This machine cannot take me down

Take my stand Unrelenting
Come and take it, if you think you can
This victory of mine, words that testify
Overcome by blood

Blood let, words are sharp and piercing
Sword of the Spirit cutting
Blood let, divine what’s right through truth
Ripping off the scales that blind you

Take my stand Unrelenting
Come and take it, if you think you can
This victory of mine, words that testify
Overcome by blood

This blade is splattered red
This blade is splattered red
My words are sharp and piercing
My words are sharp and piercing

Take my stand Unrelenting
Come and take it, if you think you can
This victory of mine, words that testify
Overcome by blood

Come and take it, come and take it if you think you can.
I will fight, I will fight.

#121: Taken By You - Staple

Taken By You
Staple

Genre: Rock



Sunlight has shined on me again,
sunlight has shined and washed away my day.
Fallen from Hell and into your arms, blessed mystery; that you held on.
falling from death, landing at your feet, amazing grace so sweet.
You looked in the wrong places and thats right where you found me.
You looked in the wrong places and now that you've taken me away.....
into your arms

#120: Hesitate - Staple

Hesitate
Staple

Genre: Rock/Post-Hardcore



Pleading with open eyes to see into your world tonight.
Bleeding with open cries, on my face
and hoping that you'll prove my faith tonight.
I'll never forget the times you made me wide awake inside,
filling my empty cracks with less of me.

I want you. I want you to know that I'm ready for you and waiting for you today.
Running on caloused knees, you're my cure for my disease.
Gasping to feel you breath,
I'd suffocate because I know that you're worth the wait.
I find your life to be true when I won't hesitate with mine,
filling your arms tonight with all of me.

Wide awake, won't hesitate when I see you there.
You're what I'm waiting for.
Wide awake, won't hesitate.
You're all, and nothing more.
Wide awake, won't hesitate.
You're all I want.
All the mazes through, lengths that I've went to,
to find what I wanted: it's always been you.
I'll be here waiting on you.
