Tell Them That She's Not Scared

Her delicate mist underneath her chest This is the moment I live for You'd kill for the angels one time for And with a subtle wink and a flutter of wings They whisper Whisper

i think thats it

Wake, wake, wake her… From this sea of white linens and Extract the drugs from her dreams, And sew her seams, With delicateness, ‘Cause beneath her chest Sits the heart that I live for, you’d kill for, The angels would die for. And with a subtle wink, And the flutter of wings, They whispered, they whispered…

I’ll hold your tears as a ransom, (only the second pre-chorus) Within the palm of my hand, And tell you once again, Don’t tell me that you’re scared…

(note to self: harmonies in chorus) Alert the sawbones Tell them that she’s not scared She’s got an army of saints armed with her prayers.

(This is only a test she said, broadcasted from hospital beds)

Wake the angels Tell them that she’s not scared She won’t be taking the next flight out of here

With a relic in her right hand, She’s rushes to the front line, Stricken by the wounds across her chest. The angels swear she’s blessed with this medical test That unlocks the gates to the place that we live for We die for, I know that she’s bound for.

And with a subtle wink and a Mother’s instinct, She whispered, she whispered…

The angels dressed for the wake But she sent them home. With a handful of bullet shells. With a handful of bullet shells.

(Go tell them that she’s not scared)

this song rocks so hard!! the lyrics are amazing, i think its about a girl going into a life aor death heart surgery and odds are against her. but her faith and strength helped her overcome almost certain failure. i thing the hand full of bullets line is interesting cause i think the bullet shells are the rosery beads that she used as amunition.

envy rocks the guys are awsome and the cd is mind blowing

Ryan once said at a show that this song is about his mom, who, i am guessing, had cancer.

i know his mom, i dont think she has cancer but i could be completley off

Yes, it's about Ryan's mom, she got breast cancer, you silly kids. :/// He said so himself. :((( Makes me sad, but that's why I love this song.

It sounds like to me, the doctor had saved her, but she wanted to die and so she did. Mainly because of the line:

"The angels dressed for the wake, but she sent them home."

i saw a video on youtube of ryan saying his mom had cancer bt she fouht it! im really sure!

i saw a video on youtube of ryan saying his mom had cancer bt she fought it! im really sure!

This is most likely my favorite Envy on the Coast song tbh. Lapseused to be, but then it bored me (:

Anything yeah, this song is about his mother having Cancer and beating it,
