The Equation Lyrics
We were safe
Now we're paralyzed
Suspended in time
At this speed it makes no difference
We're all starting just to end
Suspened in emergency arm
We could be dead
Complete the equation
Corners are exitting
We have no value in these calculations
Faced by the dead
Point us straight down
Traveling at...
Five hundred feet per second
Five thousand feet from the ground
How long will it take us to hit?
How fast will we start the disintegration?
Don't stop, no
Just keep moving
Don't stop, no
Just keep moving
How long will it take us to hit?
How fast will we start the disintegration?
We could be safe
We're forever floating in the clean blue air
Between the sun that gives us light
And the brand that burns it out
An enemy in the aisles
Press our hands together
And close our eyes
Speak these words so softly
To the blackhawks and the doves
Now we're paralyzed
Suspended in time
At this speed it makes no difference
We're all starting just to end
Suspened in emergency arm
Complete the equation
Corners are exitting
We have no value in these calculations
Point us straight down
Traveling at...
Five hundred feet per second
Five thousand feet from the ground
How fast will we start the disintegration?
Just keep moving
Don't stop, no
Just keep moving
How fast will we start the disintegration?
We're forever floating in the clean blue air
Between the sun that gives us light
And the brand that burns it out
Press our hands together
And close our eyes
Speak these words so softly
To the blackhawks and the doves

Ah, if you want me to send you this song and the other four on the EP, add me on MSN. These lyrics are pretty inacurate, but It'd be nice if someone could else could post some corrections, and take the time to post the lyrics to the other songs.
EP tracklist:
1.The Equation. 2:51 (has some screaming.. similar to Concealer, or mabye For The Workforce Drowning in a way)
2.Unconditional. 3:54 (this song could be a single, reminds me of Signals Over The Air.)
3.Awake. 4:07 (mentions a car crash, pretty cool chorus. "I'm covering up my eyes, before they cover up your eyes and wrap your body all in white" Not sure what it's about really.)
4.On Your Knees. 5:50 (absolutely beautiful. different from most Thursday songs. the lyrics are amazing.)
5.We Fall Apart. 4:00 (similar to Asleep In The Chapel, has the whole choir singing thing or whatever. great song.)
This "EP" you speak of are merely demos; are these the official names for the tracks or did you just make them up?
according to thursday's website, this song must be "At This Velocity", about a "plane crash on the other side of the world" The only one of the recently leaked demos which is actually close to the final version.
it's not an ep as nolight said, just demos that leaked. still, they're pretty cool. this one's definitely a good one.
I want to know how this dude wound up with the names for the songs because the first one is supposted to be called "At This Velocity", unless he/she/whatever just named the songs themselves because I think the Thursday boys can think of better song titles than those. These are not on an EP, they're just leaked demos. This song is the song that's most likely to appear on the CD that's being released in spring '06. The other 4 are not definate yet.
lyrics are wrong suspended in flight
and x and y sir try again
We were safe Now we're paralyzed Suspended in FLIGHT At this speed it makes no difference WHERE I START OR WHERE I END OR IF YOU'RE SITTING IN AN EMRGENCY AISLE
We could be dead Complete the equation WHAT IS OUR X AND N? We have no value in these calculations
Faced by the dead Point us straight down Traveling at... Five hundred feet per second Five thousand feet from the ground
How long will it take us to hit? How fast will we start the disintegration?
Don't LOOK NOW Just keep moving Don't stop NOW Just keep moving
How FAST will it take us to hit? How LONG will we start the disintegration?
We could be safe NOW, FOREVER. Floating in the clean blue air SOMEWHERE, between the sun that gives us light And the GROUND THAT PUTS it out
An KNEEL in the aisles Press our hands together And close our eyes Speak these words so softly To the blackhawks and IT GOES:
BEAUTIFUL LITTLE KELLY ?, I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT I
After the I, thats all I could figure out.
and done.
"Faced by the dead"
PLEASE LET IT BE
We were safe Now we're paralyzed Suspended in flight At this speed it makes no difference Where I start or where I end or if you're sitting in an emergency aisle.
We could be dead Complete the equation OUR NAMES ARE X AND N We have no value in these calculations
PLACED ON A PLANE POINTED straight down Traveling at... Five hundred feet per second Five thousand feet from the ground
How long will it take us to hit? How fast will we start the disintegration?
Don't DIE now Just keep moving Don't stop now Just keep moving
How fast will it take us to hit? How long will we start the disintegration?
We could be safe now, forever. Floating in the clean blue air somewhere, between the sun that gives us light And the ground that puts it out
An KNEEL in the aisles Press our hands together And close our eyes Speak these words so softly To the BLACKBOX and IT GOES:
MOTHER, FATHER, KELLY AND FRIENDS, I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR SWEETNESS
