Lyrics Anberlin – Velvet Covered Brick
Text:
Cyclical, stuck inside a never ending rhyme
But you’re comfortable, just another decomposing alibis
Sing yourself to sleep, count the days gone by
But outside of your walls passes real life
Here’s your chance to live, but I heard you say….
«We’re heading nowhere
It’s not close to them
Even horizons can fade
Hope says she’s never a saint
they’re all waiting on a prayer
If we’re heading nowhere»
Turbulence, am I causing you to think outside a cell for once
Just feel comfortable, dissolving years like no one else before
And I said, lead to where you are, lead your way through this
But fear and fail has made you its captive, it’s passive
So here’s a velvet covered brick, death comes to us all too quick
Here’s your chance to love, but I heard you scream!
«We’re heading nowhere
It’s not close to them
Even horizons can fade
Hope says she’s never a saint
they’re all waiting on a prayer
If we’re heading nowhere»
