Year Of The Black Rainbow (Deluxe

Coheed And Cambria Year Of The Black Rainbow (Deluxe Lyrics
1.One


2.The Broken

I followed your every move
in a stride that wills disguise.
A little markings clue defined.
Your red lips speak of painted figures,
the teeth of mangled little listeners,
the thoughts that hide your rusty scissors in,
and hold them in.
Swinging honesty across this violence,
obscurity has no hero.

The world looks better when you're falling
Grace to comfort enough to crawl in
Divided we must pray for the broken, no one could fix us.
We are, we'll always be the wrong.

Your touch seeds of emptiness.
The callous tips against the brush,
The world's now breaking off to curse

The world looks better when you're falling
Grace to comfort enough to crawl in
Divided we must pray for the broken, no one could fix us.
We are, we'll always be the wrong.

We are conspiring.

Where was your heart, when we needed it most?
Live in denial and I'll be your ghost.
There is nothing to let go, only time will let you know.
If you're worth anything, you'll know that I'm
Giving up way too early, Let the axis turn you free,
and destroy everything you love.

The world looks better when you're falling
Grace to comfort enough to crawl in
Divided we must pray for the broken, no one could fix us.
We are, we are...
We are, we are...
We are, we'll always be the wrong


3.Guns Of Summer

If this is my last chance, keep it,
I don't need your jokes,
I'm better off without the misunderstanding
If I am displeasing then leave me
the reason to all our worth,
Would I truly care if we truly mean nothing?

Have we been fed crazy?
Will the curtain save me
from my final pun?

No one will save us,
you think that somebody cares
while the water is rising up?
Let the cleansing begin
Mother, will they ever thank you?
Instead, we hide behind these foolish lies,
ambition has told us otherwise

Cold as winter, Guns of Summer,
point and watch them run.
Summer's will and debris in their son
This is your last chance, will you give up?

But in our turning towards the new
and disregarding these old ways,
will we gain some truth or suffer again?
Allow it as it breaks
and shower our soul
Rain down fire and burn us all.

No one will save us,
you think that somebody cares
while the water is rising up?
Let the cleansing begin
Mother, will they ever thank you?
Instead, we hide behind these foolish lies,
magicians have told us otherwise

Cold as winter, Guns of Summer,
point and watch them run.
Summer's will and debris in their son
This is your last chance, will you give up?

Cold as winter, Guns of Summer,
point and watch them run.
Summer's will and debris in their son
This is your last chance, will you?
Summer's will and debris in their son
This is your last chance, will you?
This is your last chance

(Cold as winter's guns) This is your last chance, will you give?
(Cold as winter's guns) This is your last chance, will you?
(Cold, cold) This is your last chance, will you give?
(as winter's guns) This is your last chance, will you?


4.Here We Are Juggernaut

Keep your secrets in the dark
Nothing matters anymore
Bodies breaking
Drive me crazy
This is not your place,
No this is not your playground,
it's my... heart!

We were stupid, we got caught
Nothing matters anymore
So what
Here we are, juggernaut

A courage broken: lash to scar.
Can this love be what I want?
Bodies breaking
Driving me crazy
It's your fault!

We were stupid, we got caught
But nothing matters anymore
So what?
Here we are, juggernaut
Juggernaut

So let's hang us some hangmen
They'll bury our burdens in blood
So hang us some hangmen
They'll bury our burdens in blood
Become stronger, juggernaut

Answer me
(Did we take this too far?)
You've given all I could need
(Did we take this too far?)
Your kiss won't leave me be
(Did we take this too far?)
Cause your teeth just won't stop chewing out my heart!

We were stupid, we got caught!
And nothing matters anymore!
So what
Here we are, juggernaut
Here we are, juggernaut
We are juggernaut!
Why, why why?!


5.Far

I welcome this pain
beating down on me
Is it your eyes
that choose not to see?

All I would do
if only you knew
All of my trust
was given to you

Oh, please, this is what I can give
What else do you need from me?
I might be sick, broken, torn to pieces
So, whatever this is, this thing that now I've become,
you hate it so much, you keep on running from it
No matter the distance, no matter how,
no matter how far

I buried this hurt,
concealed in this heart
Go lock all your doors,
these cold steps will warm

Oh, please, this is what I can give
What else do you need from me?
I might be sick, broken, torn to pieces
So, whatever this is, this thing that now I've become,
you hate it so much, you keep on running from it
No matter the distance, no matter how,
no matter how far

No matter how far

Oh, please, this is what I can give
What else do you need from me?
I might be sick, broken, torn to pieces
So, whatever this is, this thing that now I've become,
you hate it so much, you keep on running from it
No matter the distance, no matter how,
no matter how far

No, no matter how far
No, no matter how far
No, no matter how far
No, no matter how, no matter how far


6.This Shattered Symphony

Oh, I'm giving up
the one I love
I'll conduct the great disaster
to scar my skin to own this hurt

They offered their hearts
and we tore them apart,
They offered their blood
and we left them so parched
I don't know if I can give you anything you want.

Go on and give me the gun!
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice,
oh, they left me no choice,

Go on and give me the gun!
Let me blow them open
it's out of my reach,
nevermind what they think about me

I don't want to say
that with mercy we decay,
Converging closer and faster,
does all I touch turn to dust?

And she confessed her love,
only I shut her up
as I took all her words,
and allowed them to rust
I don't know if I'm the man you truly want to love

Go on and give me the gun!
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice,
oh, they left me no choice,

Go on and give me the gun!
Let me blow them open
it's out of my reach,
nevermind what they think about me

Little have they learned anything about me
Meddling eyes that judge mistakes
What awful things they say when backs are turned
and no one's looking.

Go on and give me the gun!
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice,
oh, they left me no choice,

Go on and give me the gun!
Let me blow them open
it's out of my reach,
nevermind what they think about me
in this shattered symphony.
In this shattered symphony.


7.World Of Lines

This is the hidden truth,
the world between the lines
There is no understanding us

These lines have marked divisions,
the weaker seek to malign
With this looming precious ending
there's no more room for reprimanding

Oh, when words are lightly thrown
In a world that's caught in a writer's web
humiliation reigns

Just leave us alone
If it's not worth the letting go
it's trouble, woah, woah

Just leave us alone
If it's not worth the letting go
it's trouble, woah, woah

Communications breaking up,
the static's cutting the line
This lying liar's had his turn

You've managed nothing more
than a pathetic attempt at attack
This heart is everlasting,
pushing forward, never crashing

Just leave us alone
If it's not worth the letting go
it's trouble, woah, woah

Just leave us alone
If it's not worth the letting go
it's trouble, woah, woah

State your case and go hide
Leave us to your worst,
I will never give in
to the hurt of your lies

Cause' there is no hope
for all your jokes
and your plaguing insecurity

And now I play your enemy,
the only word you could find for me

Just leave us alone
If it's not worth the letting go
it's trouble, woah, woah

Just leave us alone
If it's not worth the letting go
it's trouble, woah, woah

Just leave us alone
If it's not worth the letting go
it's trouble, woah, woah

Just leave us alone
If it's not worth the letting go
it's trouble, woah, woah


8.Made Out Of Nothing (All That I Am)

Nevermind all the lines, I'm coming
and there is no better part of me you'll see
The darkest light the blind I'll be
I accept that you chose to forget
the horrid thing you made of me, my dear
It is alright, it is so

The laughing feels so good
but the world misunderstood all I said,
there was no joke in what I meant

Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story
Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story

I've given up on all I loved for
an honest moment of clarity
Well I need to feel alright, please let me breathe
In a life I'm made out of nothing
to cleanse this useless identity
Will you hear all the world in it's whys?
Just wait,

Will the later half be as good?
Well if only I misunderstood
I'll weight all this judgment I've been blamed

Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story
Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story

I failed you, I fail
There's no understanding in miracles
when the worst, it always comes true
Ha-ha, I am the nothing you have saved

Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story
Someone please come shelter me from
all that I am and never again
will I believe the same old story

It eats us like cancer, we're hoping for something
Maybe an answer with all that you've done for me
I'll give you nothing
It eats us like cancer, we're hoping for something
Maybe an answer with all that you've done for me
Made out of nothing

Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing
Made out of nothing


9.Pearl Of The Stars

Each night, I wish to God he'd let her rest.
Oh, this hurts me more than any man can bear.
She's my angel from the west.
There will never be one to take her place.

When you go, I will know.
Follow you to the stars.
And when the world burns apart,
There will be a place for your car.

I'd give you everything,
If only I'd have known you'd take it.
But you don't, 'cause you're you.
That's why I'll always love you.
My pearl of the stars.

Oh, the pills she takes, the pain of which she drowns.
A baby sleeps next door, she's new in town.
I'll tell her how wonderful you were.
I'll remember everything you were to me.

When you go, I will know.
Follow you to the stars.
And when the world burns apart,
There will be a place for your car.

I'd give you everything,
If only I'd have known you'd take it.
But you don't, 'cause you're you.
That's why I'll always love you.
My pearl of the stars.

When you go, I will know.
Follow you to the stars.
And when the world burns apart,
There will be a place for your car.

I'd give you everything,
If only I'd have known you'd take it.
But you don't, 'cause you're you.
That's why I'll always love you.

When you go, I will know.
Follow you to the stars.
And when the world burns apart,
There will be a place for your car.

I'd give you everything,
If only I'd have known you'd take it.
But you don't, 'cause you're you.
That's why I'll always love you.
My pearl of the stars.


10.In The Flame Of Error

I hate everything I am becoming,
this change is torture
There is never enough to give,
only plenty to take, and this I wage.

When the ground parts from below,
will it feel so?
How can I gain from another
when the other goes?

This hand, this hurt, my heart,
I'll flirt with disaster,
just know now man,
the deal is off.

I'll be no good this time defines,
I'll put this touch around the grip of this knife
These dirty hands just won't come clean.
I'm a murderer, the worst these worlds will see.

Mercy
please leave her
just a little bit longer,
she's all my world

My love, I apologize,
with that you
will see the end of days
just rest assured

Cause they won't let her go
and I remain so
alone to work out a clever
way to get home

I will do what I must
I'll flirt with disaster,
I just know now,
boy you're out of luck.

I'll be no good this time defines,
I'll put this touch around the grip of this knife
These dirty hands just won't come clean.
I'm a murderer, the worst these worlds will see.
Oh, save me from defeat again, This is war
Murder the one so close, while she trusts you curse
Die, my darling!

If only you'd know
how lovely you glow in the flame of error
Oh, I ask too much
Please turn back the clock, better take me instead.

How have you come to lose the only thing,
the other one to your two?

I've become the wrong
in everyone's sleep,
please burn me your God

I'll be no good this time defines,
I'll put this touch around the grip of this knife
These dirty hands just won't come clean.
I'm a murderer, the worst these worlds will see.
Oh, save me from defeat again, This is war
Murder the one so close, while she trusts you curse
Die, my darling!

I'll be no good this time defines,
I'll put this touch around the grip of this knife
These dirty hands just won't come clean.
I'm a murderer, the worst these worlds will see.
Oh, save me from defeat again
Oh, save me from defeat again


11.When The Skeletons Live

She wheezes out her dying wish.
Come closer, one more moment, one more kiss
And I love her, I give her all I can
Her body sinks, her heat released
The curtains swing, this time she leaves
I will remember all she's done for me
But only I forgot that I'm not ready to let her go
As all time moves, you'll be riddled with doubt
You'll mourn to pull through, but love is dangerous

When skeletons live inside your closets thick and thin
you'll fear like no one will hear us sing our songs
The truth is relevant, but not for long
cause love is our downfall

I'm sorry this life cuts out everything
and leaves you to scrounge for nothing

There's no chance to try and mend,
whats been broken can't be bent
So the past remains the past until present
The cradle says this black demise
this chained coffin breathes our time's demise
All these shackles deceive just how long I've grieved

I made my move with no worry or doubt
Let them live as they do, my eternal reminder

When skeletons live inside your closets
they can make you fear
that no one will hear us sing our songs
The truth is relevant, but not for long
This love is our downfall

I'm sorry but the hurts
not going away
I'll bury all the past,
everything in it's place

(Give us the monster!)

When skeletons live inside your closets thick and thin
you'll fear like no one will hear us sing our songs
The truth is relevant, but not for long
cause love...

When skeletons live
When skeletons live
When skeletons live inside your closets thick and thin
you'll fear that no one will hear

Ooh, I'm sorry this life cuts out everything
and leaves you to scrounge for nothing
Cuts out everything
and leaves you to scrounge for nothing
Cuts out everything
and leaves you to scrounge for nothing


12.The Black Rainbow

You were all that we needed
To believe in our doubt
The hurt we allowed
We swore to believe them
And scattered across our memories found

You were all that we needed
To believe in our doubt
The worst I'm afraid
The hurt we allowed
We defied the lines enclosed
Into a great unknown to read all
The words we left out

In all we are
But you were afraid
In all we are
The one thing we can pay
In all we are
But you were afraid
Wishing one day we could be strong

It's over, it's over
It's all coming apart
While you were sleeping,
we were stealing your home
It's over, it's over
It's all coming apart
Now I never let this go, I say
It's over, it's over
It's all coming apart
While you were sleeping,
we were stealing your home
It's over, it's over
Coming apart
Now I never let this go, I say
It's over, it's over
(Coming apart, coming apart)
While you were sleeping,
we were stealing your home
It's over, it's over
(Coming apart, coming apart)
Now I never let this go, I say
It's over, it's over
Coming apart, I know, I know,
you know, you know


13.Chamberlain (Demo) (Bonus Track)

Worlds are burning out to the endless shame of this mistaken way
We wither on and on in this game we play
Go ring on the bells of war and head straight into the lion's
cage
You went and told your secrets here

So you can take to the grave
cause there is no stopping me, so long
Lungs hang in this dead man's curtain
Believe in me cause I won't believe in this

The end is now starting
oh, so please just take your seat
and live your last moments waving goodbye, desperately
Having a nice day while we're
swinging from gallow's perched atop
Fool sit still, watch them, please take your?

Spill on through killing fields,
the blood of desperate men can change
The thirst of a boy who breathes again

So you can take to the grave
but there is no stopping me
Lungs hang in this dead man's curtain
Believe in me cause I have been holding you back

The end is now starting
oh, so please just take your seat
and live your last moments waving goodbye, desperately
Having a nice day while we're
swinging from gallow's perched atop
Fool sit still, watch them, please take your?

There is no room for words against them now
Cause you're my guiding light, they couldn't make a sound
Is there a way to say, to incriminate, oh, listen to me
Oh, well baby, open that door

So you can take to the grave
cause there is no stopping me, so long
Lungs hang in this dead man's curtain
Believe in me as I won't believe in this

The end is now starting
oh, so please just take your seat
and live your last moments waving goodbye, desperately
Having a nice day while we're
swinging from gallow's perched atop
Fool sit still, watch them, please take your?


14.The Lost Shepherd (Demo) (Bonus Track)

Heaven save me a place with a window,
I'm on my march to the end of me,
I've buried a cold within this heart,
I lost the cure that plagued the start
Oh, My lover I ache.

I've done all of these things for you
Stained my soul to bleak refute

Now wallow in sick and disease
to measure out a man I know I can't be
Go learn your turn and swallow a shepherd if they follow,
Please greet them as they graze, goodbye.

Here's my blood, cause you will accept no other
I've hollowed this heart to hide you within

I'm so sick of these things I do
Worse off, worse off, I blame you

Now wallow in sick and disease
to measure out a man I know I can't be
Go learn your turn and swallow a shepherd if they follow,
Please greet them as they graze, goodbye.

You did all you could but there's nothing left, no, no more
after all
Shame you, you know that the secrets kept would one day kill us
all

Wallow through sick and disease
to measure out a man I know I can't be
Go learn your turn and swallow a shepherd if they follow,
Please greet them as they graze, goodbye.

Now wallow in sick and disease
to measure out a man I know I can't be
Go learn your turn and swallow a shepherd if they follow,
Please greet them as they graze, goodbye.
