Say the Words Lyrics
Plastic eyes surrounded by a suicidal urge
To lose control now and let this go
You're paralyzed trying just to find a way
To learn sleep alone now that you're on your own
Say the words
Say the words out loud
Let them out of your soul
And as it is you're hidden underneath this fight
But sinking like a stone love so far below
The streets are paved with black and yellow lines
That never lead you back to home love
Cause you're on your own
Say the words
Say the words out loud
Let them out of your soul
We build our dreams
And then burn them down
To the ground
Till they're gone
We gotta find a way to love again
While the words are still there ringing in our heads
The prophets sang the anthems left for dead
While the words are still there
They're ringing in, they're ringing in
We gotta find a way to love again
While the words are ringing in our heads
They're ringing in our heads
The prophets sang the anthems left for dead
Thile the words are ringing in our heads
They're ringing in our heads
So say the words
Say the words out loud
Let them out of your soul
To lose control now and let this go
You're paralyzed trying just to find a way
To learn sleep alone now that you're on your own
Say the words out loud
Let them out of your soul
But sinking like a stone love so far below
The streets are paved with black and yellow lines
That never lead you back to home love
Cause you're on your own
Say the words out loud
Let them out of your soul
And then burn them down
To the ground
Till they're gone
While the words are still there ringing in our heads
The prophets sang the anthems left for dead
While the words are still there
They're ringing in, they're ringing in
While the words are ringing in our heads
They're ringing in our heads
The prophets sang the anthems left for dead
Thile the words are ringing in our heads
They're ringing in our heads
Say the words out loud
Let them out of your soul

i think this song is about losing love because of mistakes we make hurting ourselves, and being hurt, and being crippled by the pain.
"We build our dreams And then burn them down To the ground Till they're gone"
But then there is this challenge to find a way to move on and learn from our past mistakes. The whole EP seems to have a theme about loss, pain, depression, and brokenness, and finding love in the midst of this mess and being able to rise above it to something better.
"We gotta find a way to love again While the words are ringing in our heads"
It reminds me of the Sherwood song "My Dear Friend" which says "my attemts at love are not worth speaking of but my dear friend i'll try again." I think this song shares a similar sentiment. It's about finding hope and wholeness in the middle of being heartbroken, and not giving up on love because LOVE is the answer to healing the pain and brokenness. Whether it is love for yourself, or for another person, LOVE is the answer, not giving up.
