Gravemakers and Gunslingers Lyrics

So draw, little piggy, better watch out for number one
(I fear there's a bad wind blowing through here!)
You better put up the shudders cause Lord knows
Now I ain't stoppin' ?till the worst gets alive
Little strutter don't you creep out that fuckin' rut
(It's best that you don't go walking through there)
Now please a don't bother knockin'
Cause God knows I ain't now stopping 'till you breathe none

Hey!
What I miss?
We're one and the same

Just give it the push while I kick-start
(There?s just no time for this)
Come on! Its just the hurt I'm looking for
I don't wanna live no more
You've got the gun, I've got the bullets
Don't wanna live no more
Oh baby, be my lover
Go on and pull that trigger!

You're the sin of this city, now repent for the wrong you've done
(I'm not sorry for this, not sorry at all)
You're a snake under cover
No room for another just these bad motherfuckers'
Leave a long trail of nothing, little bad boy with gun in hand
(Its best that you don?t go walking through there)
Now please a come boy a poppin'
Cause God knows I ain't now stopping 'till you breathe none

Hey!
What I miss?
We?re one and the same

Just give it the push while I kick-start
(There's just no time for this)
Come on! Its just the hurt I'm looking for
I don't wanna live no more
You've got the gun, I've got the bullets
Don't wanna live no more
Oh baby, be my lover
Go on and pull that trigger!

Let flood out the weasels hole, (Oh, Christ will you bury my body?)
To choke out all the lies it's told, (Oh, Christ will you bury my body?)
With time, hope the hurt gets old, (Oh, Christ will you bury my body?)
Let's fuck out the weasel's hole, (Oh, Christ will you bury my body?)

We'll keep marching to the top of this tower
As God isn't at home, no
There's nothing in the way that could stop us
It's your time to go

Hey!
What I miss?
We?re one and the same

Just give it the push while I kick-start
(There's just no time for this)
Come on! Its just the hurt I'm looking for
I don't wanna live no more
You've got the gun, I've got the bullets
Don't wanna live no more
Oh baby, be my lover
Go on and pull that trigger!

I don't wanna live no more
Go on and pull that trigger!
Don't wanna live no more
Be my lover go on and pull that trigger!

This song is fast, so I'm gonna be slowing it down on audacity, and I'll be on aim if anyone wants to help figure out the lyrics with me for a while.

Cover art for Gravemakers and Gunslingers lyrics by Coheed and Cambria

This is what I hear for the first part, more or less:

So go. Little piggy, better watch out for number one. I'm feeling there's a bad wind blowing through there. You better pull up the shutters because lord knows now I ain't stomping through the woods, it's alive. Little darling, don't you creep out that fucking runt. It's best that you don't go walking through there. Now please, don't bother knocking because God's knows I ain't now stoping until you breathe no Hey Would I miss you, one and the same?

Just give it the push while I kick start There's just no time for this, Come on, it's just the herd I'm looking for. Don't want to live no more. You've got the gun, I've got the bullets Don't want to live no more. Well baby be my lover, go on and pull that trigger.

I see lots of typos in that now. Ick.

Here's the complete parts I got.
Chorus: "What I need is (one in the same?) Just give it a push while I kick-start Theres just no time for this Come on, it’s just the ???? I’m looking for Don’t want to live no more You’ve got the gun, I’ve got the bullets Don’t want to live no more Baby be my lover go on and pull that trigger"

And the final verse/outro, whatever you want to call it (after the last solo).

"We’ll keep marching to the top of this tower As god isn’t at home There’s nothing in the way that can stop us It’s your time to go"

This song is BITCHIN'!

heh, sorry S0S, didn't see you got there 3 minutes before me. I like you're interpretaton of the chorus more than mine. And damn good job on the first verse.

Cover art for Gravemakers and Gunslingers lyrics by Coheed and Cambria

That's alright. I'm not sure I have the first verse 100%, but I'm confident on most of it. Anyway. . . yeah. I think this is the second versey bit:

You’ve sinned another city Now you’ll pay for the wrong you’ve done I’m not sorry for this, I’m not sorry at all

Are you a snake undercover With the wolf or another Just these bad motherfuckers

Leave a long trail of nothing Little bad boy with gun in hand It’s best that you don’t go walking through there

Now please, a convoy or your papa Because God knows I ain’t now stopping until you breathe no more Hey

Cover art for Gravemakers and Gunslingers lyrics by Coheed and Cambria

Good job on the lyrics everyone, they look pretty good from what I can hear. Anyway I can't tell if I love or hate this song.

Cover art for Gravemakers and Gunslingers lyrics by Coheed and Cambria

I'm so disappointed in this and The Running Free both. I mean, they're good, but not by Coheed standards.

Cover art for Gravemakers and Gunslingers lyrics by Coheed and Cambria

outside of the context of the rest of the album I can definately see why people wouldn't like The Running Free...I think it's going to be the "Blood Red Summer" or "The Suffering" of NWFT - the poppy radio single. However, when you put play it as part of the album as a whole I'm sure it will blend much better just like the previously mentioned songs do. Such is the way of concept albums. This song, however, I think is great. It's definately got a different feel to it - a little more of a groove than most Coheed songs. Overall the release of these two songs has completely reignited my excitement for this new album just like "Welcome Home" did before Good Apollo came out. I think No World for Tomorrow is going to be brilliant and can't wait to hear what Chris Pennie brings to the mix.
