Over Exposure Lyrics
I have seen ten roses bleed,
seen new petals fall,
I have felt my soul tear.
I have felt nothing at all.
Watched what was vibrant fade as shadows fall.
I can see it's been done,
all that was pure has been eradicated.
I can see, it's all done.
Nothing can erase the damage done.
I have seen ten liars love,
seen two lovers lie, seen youth, blinded, smiling.
I have seen deceit handed down.
From the highest height,below the lowly.
I can see it's been done, all that was pure has been eradicated.
I have seen beasts bathed in glory, tread across the angels as they crawl.
Take it all away.
Regress to nothing.
Can someone please take these images from my mind?
seen new petals fall,
I have felt my soul tear.
I have felt nothing at all.
Watched what was vibrant fade as shadows fall.
I can see it's been done,
all that was pure has been eradicated.
I can see, it's all done.
Nothing can erase the damage done.
I have seen ten liars love,
seen two lovers lie, seen youth, blinded, smiling.
I have seen deceit handed down.
From the highest height,below the lowly.
I can see it's been done, all that was pure has been eradicated.
I have seen beasts bathed in glory, tread across the angels as they crawl.
Take it all away.
Regress to nothing.
Can someone please take these images from my mind?

Everything is tainted by the evil in this world.

He is saying that the world went from being pure to being scorn with evil in every escense of life. he wants it all to go away.
Yep, Mallues couldn't have said it better myself.
yep, I think Malleus got it right. This is a cool song, and theline "Nothing can erase the damage done." is also the line that is under the CD in the CD case of the A Fire Inside EP.
love love love this song
seen two lovers lie, seen youth, blinded, smiling.
think how straightedge davey feels when there is youthful sex going on everyday...
Very gay song. Sounds like he's telling us his life experiencing. Wake up and smell the bleeding roses: NO ONE CARES!!!
I'm sorry Malleus, but the world has never been pure. Remember back in the Garden of Eden, when Eve ate of that forbidden fruit? Call that pure?
Think about the title... he's saying that he's seen too much of the way the world really works and that it's impure and it sickens him.
Sweetnspicy, first of all, don't take religious material as fact on the history of the world. The world, however, as you basically said, has never been pure. But technically, if you say Eden existed, then at a time to you, there was only purity.
As for this awesome song, I agree with punkpirate.
He's been exposed to everything; a little too much. I love how this song is screamed. Yeah sweetnspicy you can't randomly force your religion down our throats. That's fucking random and inaccurate.
