Last Call (Demo) Lyrics
The center cannot hold, the side collapses
Full of broken words, sing the song inside the dark arcade
Color me in city green, the streets are winding,
spitting flames
Cars around the arteries, we scream, and swerve, and fall apart
everything we love, it falls apart
and the architect abandons us
I'll save us from the sky until a feeling burns, you try
it plants a seed of fire that flowers in the corner of your eye
circling, breathing, we'll keep them always moving
heart attack, efficiency, erase the figure as it...
...falls.
Everything we love, it falls apart
and the architect abandons us
the city shakes like tired hands
the light divides what darkness mends
our bodies echo in our plans
everything is falling apart
everything is falling apart (x4)
the wedding starts, the guests seep in
the church bells ringing endlessly
the bride and groom are hand in hand
and everything goes as its planned
the parents smile,
the priest chokes up,
the organ plays 'Amazing Grace'
and underneath the thin white veil...
...everything is falling apart
everything is falling apart (x3)
and the people sing:
"la la la la, da da da, la la la la, da da da, la la
la la, da da da daaaaaaaa" (x2)
the city shakes like tired hands
the light divides what darkness mends
and all the bodies echo in our plans
Everything is falling apart
Everything is falling apart (x4)
la la la la, da da da (x2)
Full of broken words, sing the song inside the dark arcade
Color me in city green, the streets are winding,
spitting flames
Cars around the arteries, we scream, and swerve, and fall apart
and the architect abandons us
it plants a seed of fire that flowers in the corner of your eye
circling, breathing, we'll keep them always moving
heart attack, efficiency, erase the figure as it...
...falls.
and the architect abandons us
the light divides what darkness mends
our bodies echo in our plans
everything is falling apart
the church bells ringing endlessly
the bride and groom are hand in hand
and everything goes as its planned
the parents smile,
the priest chokes up,
the organ plays 'Amazing Grace'
and underneath the thin white veil...
"la la la la, da da da, la la la la, da da da, la la
la la, da da da daaaaaaaa" (x2)
the light divides what darkness mends
and all the bodies echo in our plans
Everything is falling apart
la la la la, da da da (x2)

well finally some one at least attepted this one, but these are definzately wrong. I'll start with the chorus which should probably be "the light divides what darkness mends", considering this is probablty the title track of the new album " A City By the Light Divided. There's more wrong especially that arcade line, that's just blasphemy.
i think these are MUCH closer
The sun it cannot hold The sun collapses Full of broken words Sing the song that is of the darker day Cover me in secrets The streets are winding spinning flicks?
Cancer on the arteries We scream these words And they fall apart
Everything we love IT falls apart And the architect abandons us
The sun falls from the sky into a field and burns it dry The plants they signify the flowers in the corner of your eye
surgery bleeding or breathing (Mouth keep it always moving Heart attack Efficiency The ways to single us out
Falls Everything we love it falls apart And the architect abandons us
The city shakes like tired hands The light defies what darkness mends Our bodies echo in our prayers Everything is falling apart
Everything is falling apart Everything is falling apart Everything is falling apart Everything is falling apart
The wedding starts The guests appear The church bells ringing in my sleep The bride and groom go hand in hand And everything goes as it’s planned The parents smile The priest chokes up The organ plays ‘Amazing Grace’ And underneath the thin white veil Everything is falling apart
Everything is falling apart Everything is falling apart Everything is falling apart
And the people sing
Lalalala dadada Lalalala dadada Lalalala dadada
The city shakes like tired hands The light defies what darkness mends Our bodies echo in our prayers Everything is falling apart
Everything is falling apart Everything is falling apart Everything is falling apart Everything is falling apart
no, those arent closer. Some of that doesnt even make sense. Cancer on the arteries?
You are both not close but have pieces and parts that are correct for example it is: The sun falls from the sky into a field and burns it dry it plants a seed of fire that flowers in the corner of your eye Surgery breathing, Now keep them always moving heart attack, efficiency, erase the figure as it... ...falls. It is definately "defies" sorry bout that. It's "They sing the silent song of darker days" Is it Sun or Center, I have to admit center makes more sense but does not keep up with the theme of light and dark as the rest of the song does
Yeah promiseofdreams, that sucked.
I gave NoLightToSeeBy these lyrics and he made a few tweeks, and it sounds good to me.
Knife2aGunFight is good, too.
Man he pronounces "parents" really strange, for a while I thought it was "palpets" which is also part of the church. I like the double meaning of arteries, sice and arteries can be roadways or part of one's body which brings me to this line: I think it's "Now keep the roadways moving" considering the roads sybolize arteries, if they stopped moving the subsequent "Heart-attack" would follow in the next line. It is Center not Sun. It's Search for our Breathing Now keep the Roadways moving.... and on a humorius note I think most of those la's should be da's
who wants to send these songs to me?
IM me lilLana46
any thoughts that this is that song??
Yeah that's most likely it. Shower of White = the wedding at the end?
This probably has nothing to do with the song, but "the center cannot hold" was a line out of a yates poem called "The Second Coming" and its all about chaos and how anarchy is upon the world, etc.. and its because jesus is coming back but as a monster. Yeah... probably just doesnt make any sense with the song... just somehting to think about lol...
