Good to Know That If I Ever Need Attention All I Have to Do Is Die Songtext

von Brand New

Am I correct to defend the fist that hold this pen?
It's ink that lies
The pen, the page, the paper
I live; I learn
You will always take what I have earned
So aid my end
While I believe I'm winning

Our friends speak out in our defense
I pay ten deaf ears for two months' rent
We burn the gallows they erect
And cut the nooses they tie for our necks

You constantly make it impossible
To make conversation
We're comatose; we're audible
And I like it the further I get out
We passed it off but it's all on us
Common conversation, it took everything I got
And I like it the further I get out

Once said, always said
I will hold the past over your head
I'll speak my mind whenever I feel slighted
I am hellbent
I'm extracting all of my revenge
So take heart, sweetheart
Or I will take it from you

We slip, concealed, back to the keep
Concede to do the work for free
We pray as wolves among the sheep
And slit the necks of soldiers while they sleep
