Cut Your Ribbon (Wiretap Scars version) Lyrics
Wake Up
Can You Hear Me?
You're so cleaver
Did you find me?
In the backroom
In your closet
In your suitcase
There's no running
I will find you
Like the glacier
Cuts the seabed, leaving Canyons
In your cheekbones
passing through you
in the shadows, scenes undo you
*CHORUS*
Cut Your Ribbon
As it follows you
Everything, Everything
how can you sleep at night
As it falls apart
everything, everything
how can you sleep at night
Face it
Can you hear it?
Violation, You'll remember
It's all harmless
incidental, disengaging
these thoughts break you
concious, vicious
it has found you
monovision, synapse fails you
frequent syndrome
stings and burns through
monovision, then dillutes you
*CHORUS*
Can you escape these motives (x3)
*CHORUS*
Can You Hear Me?
You're so cleaver
Did you find me?
In the backroom
In your closet
In your suitcase
There's no running
I will find you
Like the glacier
Cuts the seabed, leaving Canyons
In your cheekbones
passing through you
in the shadows, scenes undo you
Cut Your Ribbon
As it follows you
Everything, Everything
how can you sleep at night
As it falls apart
everything, everything
how can you sleep at night
Can you hear it?
Violation, You'll remember
It's all harmless
incidental, disengaging
these thoughts break you
concious, vicious
it has found you
monovision, synapse fails you
frequent syndrome
stings and burns through
monovision, then dillutes you

i love this song. not only the lyrics, but the way it makes me want to kick someone's ass.
Don't forget Mars Volta. :-)
haha, i thought i was the only person who wants to beat the shit out of someone when i hear this song.
so i saw sparta live and they didnt sing this version and I really like the old version better.. but oh well it still kicks ass
I like the wiretap scars version much better... anyway Sparta is a great band and they kick ass
ok so at first i liked the older version better but now that i have the album and have listened to it... i like this version better! haha! it makes more sense to me.
this video is intense.
sparta as great as they are just can't touch the sheer genius of atd-i!
this song is brilliant i agree that the newer version is better i like the solo in the quiet bit, its missing from the buddyhead version
its a great paranoid song i love it when jim ward screams "how can you sleep at night?"
atdi still rocked harder than sparta, even though sparta's good
I miss At the Drive in. I like Sparta alot, and I respect Jim Ward and all the work he put into Wire Tap Scars, because it is an amazing album. But c'mon, you know you all want to see these guys back with Cedrick playing "sleeping pills" and going fucking insane. I know I do. Maybe I am alone in this wish, but hell, I don't mind.
