The Broken Lyrics
I followed your every move
in a stride that wills disguise.
A little markings clue defined.
Your red lips speak of painted figures,
the teeth of mangled little listeners,
the thoughts that hide your rusty scissors in,
and hold them in.
Swinging honesty across this violence,
obscurity has no hero.
The world looks better when you’re falling
Grace to comfort enough to crawl in
Divided we must pray for the broken, no one could fix us.
We are, we’ll always be the wrong.
Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah
Your touch seeds of emptiness.
The callous tips against the brush,
The world's now breaking off to curse
The world looks better when you’re falling
Grace to comfort enough to crawl in
Divided we must pray for the broken, no one could fix us.
We are, we’ll always be the wrong.
We are conspiring.
Where was your heart, when we needed it most?
Live in denial and I’ll be your ghost.
There is nothing to let go, only time will let you know.
If you’re worth anything, you’ll know that I’m
Giving up way too early, Let the axis turn you free,
and destroy everything you love.
The world looks better when you’re falling
Grace to comfort enough to crawl in
Divided we must pray for the broken, no one could fix us.
We are, we are...
We are, we are...
We are, we'll always be the wrong
in a stride that wills disguise.

Thanks for the lyrics! Where did you get them from cause I've been looking for them everywhere!
This song is epic. Can't wait for YotBR to be released.
Haha great song. Can't wait for April.
I'm hearing "the teeth of mangled little listeners," and right after "the thoughts that hide your rusty scissors in," I hear it as, "Hold them in, swinging honesty across this violence,"
Or is that just me?

Ya i agree i knew there were some missing things.. also fixed "Your red lips speak of painted figures," instead of "Your red lips they speak of painted figures,"

another thing I was thinking of was "let the axes turn you free," instead of axis. but i'm not really sure on that one. the words sound basically the same, but axes just makes more sense to me.

Not really. As the story behind the music references a solar system. A planet turns on an axis. Nothing turns on axes.

Yeah it's possible there's mistakes, I tried to do it by ear.
Is this more writer/story drama a la GAIBSIV? I get the feeling this is more personal, like Claudio dealing with his die hard fans of SSTB and IKSSE3 and trying to move on but placate them as well. "swinging honesty across this violence"- taking personal stories and aadapting them into story. "Where was your heart heart when we needed it most?" -dialogue of the die hards... "Live in denial, I'll be your ghost"- Claudio's response... just a thought
I don't think it's a continuation of the thought process of the Writer. Considering that this is the beginning of the saga, I would think that it has something to do with the betrayal of the Mages or possibly the coup staged by Mariah Antillarea against the URA or something. We'll just have to wait and see, I guess.

The album is the prequal to the entire story. I think it covers Ryan's rise to power, and the beginning of the resistance as well as the KBI program.

This song is epically beautiful! I'm very, very impressed. To be honest, I thought that this album was not going to turn out very great because of the short amount of time between records, but that fear has definitely subsided. Chris has made a great first impression. Claudio's vocals and returning guitar riffs are dark and moody. It's classic Coheed with that new metal-like spin from No World For Tomorrow. I reallly like it.
Am I the only one who thinks that this has to do with the Mages or Mariah Antillarea's coup against the URA or is my chronology messed up?
I think he says "black black black ..." instead of "blah blah blah..."
It makes sense with the album name too.
I'm starting to think the chorus is:
'The world looks better when you're falling Graced to comfort and not to crawling' instead of 'grace to comfort, enough to crawl in.' Any input?
That makes a lot more sense, I think.
