Coheed & Cambria The Light & The Glass [DVD] Lyrics

Slowly the pen touches paper
In the guidance of the words that you write
Memories roll in of the things you once did
And who you had shared them with
Is somebody thinking of you?

Did I bother telling you this
With the words that cross teeth and jump lips?
A poor choice of words in wanting to tell you anything
But words don't come with ease
They're forever my hurt

Would It really matter
If you were to count the days left with your hands?
Your focus secure and the loves you left well
Smiles staged in photographs here until

You, you left the light on
There's a chance I might have tripped, girl
You were there to hold on

Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother
"Kill or be killed," spilled the words from your mother
I'll lay awake for a while
I'll leave the light on a while

But you couldn't last a lifetime
Caught between here and the days of it
Carving her name across your arm
With every wish it's____ or miss her
I told you so
I measured distance in lines
Departing the rest of my life

But you, you, you
You had better things to do
But you, you, you
You had better things to do

Liar, liar, liar, liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar

Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother
"Kill or be killed," spilled the words from your mother
I'll lay awake for a while
I'll leave the light on a while

But you couldn't last a lifetime
Caught between here and the days of it
Carving her name across your arm
With every wish it's____ or miss her
I told you so
I measured distance in lines
Departing the rest of my life

If you get put to sleep
Like an old dog, you're better off
If you get put to sleep

I've been cautious with the words I extend
Allow this year before the world starts to end

Your father's dead, he passed in his sleep
(And I woke to the sounds of her crying)
(And I woke to the sounds of him dying)
(And I woke to the sounds of them dying)

Pray for us all . . .
