COMMON CHOIR LYRICS

1. Negation Delirium (Self Inflicted Famine)

As cold accumulates on your skin
You stand tall, yet so frail, so very thin
In your mind this virus is feeding
Your strength is receding
Into a void

I'll pull you back
I'll bring you fucking back
I'll pull you back
I'll pull you fucking back

Cut these scarlet threads
Pull this scarlet thread
Before you're fucking dead
Before you're fucking dead

Pull this scarlet thread
Cut this scarlet thread
Unstitch all this dread
Before you're fucking dead

As cold accumulates on your skin
You stand tall, yet so frail, so very thin
In your mind this virus is feeding
Your strength is receding
Into a void

I'll pull you back
I'll bring you fucking back
I'll pull you back
I'll pull you fucking back

Cut these scarlet threads
Pull this scarlet thread
Before you're fucking dead
Before you're fucking dead

Pull this scarlet thread
Cut these scarlet threads
Unstitch all this dread
Before you're fucking dead

Your weary bones
Puncturing, puncturing, puncturing
Your flesh
Your weary bones
Exaggerate, exaggerate, exaggerate
Your end

I decide who will live and who will die
I decide when you die
I decide when you die

2. Dive Bar Knight Life

I've heard it said that
Living is like licking honey from a thorn
And it makes me wonder
How often these thorns would adorn
My memories of you

I've heard enough in my day about idealistic romances
Held in high regard
I've seen enough in my day to know what you really are
What you really are

I've heard it said that
We accept the love we think we deserve
And it makes me wonder
What he ever did to deserve
A hell like you

I've heard enough in my day about
Idealistic romances
Self absorbed, over saturated
I've seen enough in my day to know what you really are
Under diagnosed, over medicated

I've seen enough in my day
Under diagnosed

With you it seems like, I'm always breaking oysters but never finding pearls

No matter what you say
You never try to find you way home at night
It seems like no matter what I say
My words will always pass you by

For you affection, is a violent infection
Burning through your flesh and bone
Ruining your home
For you, affection, is a violent infection
Ruining your home

3. Coastal Feeding (B.T.V.B.)

I've lost everything I've invested in you
In a moment
I could speak in volumes, on all the times I've heard you lie
Oh I could speak in volumes, but your own words will do just fine

You're loosing your grip
You're loosing your sight
You're loosing your grip
You're loosing your sight

Go back to California
Run back to your golden coast
Like that that could ever heal
These salted wounds or broken bones

Your words could never last
You built them on pillars of salt and sand
With neuropathetic hands
With neuropathetic hands
Sharks smell blood from the depths of this shallow water

You're loosing your grip
You're loosing your sight
You're loosing your grip
You're loosing your sight

Go back to California
Run back to your golden coast
Like that that could ever heal
These salted wounds or broken bones

Sharks smell blood in shallow water
This coastal feeding has become a coastal slaughter
The sharks smell blood
This feeding is a coastal slaughter

As you slip away
Slip softly into the sea
Your body bleeds, as it sinks

For once this coastal feeding won't be on me
And I've lost everything that I've invested in

You're loosing your grip
You're loosing your sight
You're loosing your grip
You're loosing your sight

Go back to California
Run back to your golden coast
Like that that could ever heal
These salted wounds or broken bones

4. Low Hide / White Wash

I have seen the modern man
Mixing scripture into his vomit
I have been at the edge
Of my own existence
And it's hard to say that my perception
Will allow me to be blinded by your
White washed lies
Blinded by your white washed lies

The age of true emotion is dead
Corroding from the seams of everything I see
Lay this down to bed, rotting away
Lay this down to bed

Write a catchy hook, sink it deep
Who gives a fuck what it means
Sing the words, keep it clean
Never mind what they fucking mean
Who gives a fuck, it's all you'll ever be

From the seams of everything I see
Lay this down to bed, rotting away
Lay this down to bed

Write a catchy hook, sink it deep
Who gives a fuck what it means
Sing the words, keep it clean
Never mind what they fucking mean
Who gives a fuck, it's all you'll ever be

It's all you'll ever be
It's all you'll ever be

Write a catchy hook, sink it deep
Who gives a fuck what it means
Sing the words, keep it clean
Never mind what they fucking mean
Sing the words, keep it clean
Never mind what they fucking mean
Who gives a fuck, it's all you'll ever be
