Thrice - So Strange I Remember You

So Strange I Remember You in protest of a prayer,

and falling back from seas we fear to sail

i swear i saw the shooter, gold deep and double dare,

postmortem warnings seem inclined to fail,feigning an apology.

those words they never left your lips,

those 5 years in Bermuda slide by like the lights of passing ships,

So Strange that I Remember You,

kneeling deep in Nietzsche's lies

my throat was an open grave i drank your stained glass eyes



and they taste like dead cathedrals

that are crumbling beneath a weight ten thousand jaded tourists

who've traded in their hearts and hands for

disposable cameras, set to document to decay

set to capture just enough of life to catalogue the things we throw away(whispered)

(breathing the fumes of our machines)

we've lost our way-Dustin sings

( breathing through television dreams)-whisperedif we could only see us now

if we could only see us nowthe words of the dead ring in our ears

but its only a lie

the voice in your head brings you to tears

but you don't know why

the words of the dead ring in our ears

but its only a lie

the voice in your head brings you to tears

but its only a lie,

yes its only a lie,

...isn't it?
