UnderOath Anthology 1999-2013 Lyrics
1.Sunburnt

Burn out bright
hold the torch while you can
don't fade away
Burn out bright
hold the torch while you can
don't fade

I saw you pointing the finger
it can't be getting clearer
fade, out
well if I have to spend it for you
I guess I'll be your little martyr
fade out fade

We've all been down this road a time or two
and I swear I thought I was never coming home

Patience I know its hard enough for you
we can't stand together
Patience I know its hard enough for you
we can't stand together

I come up empty handed
the ground is falling right where im shrinking
fade out
im just away in the dark
they all talk about the day I fell apart
fade out fade

We've all been down this road a time or two
and I swear I thought I was never coming home

Patience I know its hard enough for you
we cant stand together
Patience I know its hard enough for you
we can't stand together

I stand before the crowd broken
I was once of this
I will never let them in no
wont let them intensify
and I never took my time while i was there
I never took the time

Patience I know its hard enough for you
we cant stand together
Patience I know its hard enough for you
we can't stand together

I never thought I'd see the end
I never thought I'd see you


2.Unsound

my eyes are clearer now so much more than before I took my turn
you'll never tell them where you're going or how to get there
let them fear what they don't understand
I see the changing of hands

whatever makes you whole again
whatever brings you home
I never wanted this, I never wanted this
(x2)

I fear I'm getting older, I know my feet (?) are dirtier now
I watch my youth fly right by like I couldn't stand to have it
any other way
...can see the changing of hands

whatever makes you whole again
whatever brings you home
I never wanted this, I never wanted this
(x2)

(never wanted)

whatever makes you whole again
whatever brings you home
I never said I'd do this on my own

whatever makes you whole again
whatever brings you home
I never wanted this, I never wanted this

I'm the only one still standing here


3.I've Got Ten Friends and a Crowbar That Says You Ain't Gonna Do Jack


Carried out the sound
Past our eyes horizon
I'm standing still, standing still
Waiting for this all to change
Now my hands are up
And I'm walking out, walking out
What do you expect of me?

Did you think that this was all
An excuse for hospitality
I know you think its all because of me.

At first glance, i'll breath in
Leaving myself no room to move at all
My mind is so flooded
And I'm drunk with regret,
Swimming in a sea of hope tonight
I'll find your hand and trace it with mine
As we push away with everything we have,
With everything we have left.

Oh you're acting on my words,
They're acting on my words
We can start the fire that will light up the night
I wouldn't be to sure, sure of you at all.

We'll watch it burn together
On respective sides, yeah.
We look so good, we look so good
As we fall, as we fall, as we fall.

I'll go ahead and re-elect perfection
It's never looked as good
As it does on you right now.
I'll go ahead and make an incision.
I doubt you'll feel anything at all
A fake a fraud forked tongue and I'm nervous
At least I can say I made it out this time
And I'm just fine where you have left me
As for you be sure to cover up, to cover up your mouth.

Oh you're acting on my words, they're acting on my words
We can start the fire that will light up the night
I wouldn't be to sure,sure of you at all
Sure of you at all

Oh you're acting on my words
We can start the fire
I wouldn't be to sure of you at all, sure of you at all

I don't know how to say this
My thoughts have just run out
