Watching You Lyrics
I've been watching you up in the corner
Watching you from down below
I've watching you dance in the shadows
Watching you I'm falling to pieces
And when everything that you do loses beauty
When everything's taboo and unkind
And the only thing you ever dream of is sharpening knives
Sharpening knives
I've been watching you up in the corner
Watching you from down below
I've watching you dance in the darkness
Watching you I'm falling to pieces
And when everything that you do loses beauty
When everything's taboo and unkind
And the only thing you ever dream of is sharpening knives
Sharpening knives
Sharpening knives [x4]
Sharpening knives (I've been watching you...) [x8]
And when everything that you do loses beauty
When everything's taboo and unkind
And the only thing you ever dream of is sharpening knives
Sharpening knives
Sharpening knives (I've been watching you...)
I've been watching you
Watching you from down below
I've watching you dance in the shadows
Watching you I'm falling to pieces
When everything's taboo and unkind
And the only thing you ever dream of is sharpening knives
Sharpening knives
Watching you from down below
I've watching you dance in the darkness
Watching you I'm falling to pieces
When everything's taboo and unkind
And the only thing you ever dream of is sharpening knives
Sharpening knives
When everything's taboo and unkind
And the only thing you ever dream of is sharpening knives
Sharpening knives
I've been watching you

I love... this band. Matt's voice is so sexy. SO sexy. And Josiah, oman, don't even get me started. The TALENT. Oh THE TALENT.
hmm, mysteriously, this song makes me bobble my head in a strange way..maybe i should stop it..nah..great song:only one post, how can this be??
Doods. This is probably my favorite song off the album;; especially after hearing it live.
It was cool- Matt was thanking the people from the venue for taking care of the band so well and Epitaph and what not, and so to introduce this song he goes:
"This song's for them, because they're always watching us."
And then he sang it and it was fucking great.
True story. xD
somebody help me out here, what does this one mean?
My favorite song from the album.
It kind of reminds me of Depeche Mode.
@alomaxrawwx, it probably reminds you of Depeche Mode because of the fantatastic baseline! You think?
@skiba_junkie, @no_one_really - I really like this song & probably bobble my head to it, too ;)
@skywalker8716 - If you watch the video: http://www.last.fm/music/Heavens/+videos/+1-BYIRJoCdM3s It becomes pretty clear, except for the knives. "I've been watching you" & the rest of the first 4 lines - he's stalking a girl "And when everything that you do loses beauty When everything's taboo and unkind" He realizes she's no angel and just another person? Then moves on to another?
"And the only thing you ever dream of is sharpening knives Sharpening knives" I really don't know. Either she's freaked out and thinking of self defense, or "you" refers to himself and he's doing satanic stuff (see last minute of video) or cutting himself. Either that or it's a figurative way of saying the girl is hurting him (by not accepting his love, which he might not have even ever offered); he sees her as doing it intentionally (but she's probably just not interested)
