The Foreboding Sense of Impending Happiness Lyrics
By your heart strings I'm hanging from a dream,
Gently swinging in the warm autumn breeze
Come look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up, no more
Tip toeing along a strand of your hair suspended between,
These thoughts and actions miles above reality
Come look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Come look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Opening up, opening up, opening up, opening up
Look at the scars, You're open me up, open me up
Smother a heart, Opening up, opening up
Look at the Scars, You're open me up, opening up, open me up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up...
Gently swinging in the warm autumn breeze
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up, no more
These thoughts and actions miles above reality
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up
Look at the scars, You're open me up, open me up
Smother a heart, Opening up, opening up
Look at the Scars, You're open me up, opening up, open me up
Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up

I believe the lyric is actually "Come Look at the Scars, Smother our hearts, opening up no more...." at least that's what Ville says it is :) Great song though. Definitely one of my faves off of "Screamworks" :) I think it's a generally uplifting song, surrealistic in nature, but nevertheless about making small romantic gestures count in a time where most people believe Chivalry is dead. At least that's what I get from it.
The title pretty much says it all. It's about being closed.. afraid to love and trust again. Look at the scars, smother a heart, opening up (no more) Like when you're really falling for someone, and it's new, and it feels so good. You just want to hold on to this feeling. But you're afraid it's all a dream, and you'll wake up alone. I really love this song. It's definately one of my favorites from the new album.
