Velvet Covered Brick Lyrics
Cyclical, stuck inside a never ending ride
But you're comfortable
Just another decomposing alibi
Sing yourself to sleep
Count the days gone by
But outside of your walls passes real life
So here's a velvet covered brick
Death comes to us all too quick
Here's your chance to live, but I heard you say oh
"We're heading nowhere
It's my cross to bear
Even horizons can fade
Hope says she's never estranged
There aren't wings or a prayer
If we're heading nowhere"
Turbulence, am I causing you to think outside a cell for once
You're still comfortable
Dissolving years like no one else before
And I said, lead the way you are
Lead your way through this
But fear and fail has made you its captive, it's passive
So here's a velvet covered brick
Death comes to us all too quick
Here's your chance to love, but I heard you scream, oh!
"We're heading nowhere
It's my cross to bear
Even horizons can fade
Hope says she's never estranged
There aren't wings or a prayer
If we're heading nowhere"
Even horizons can fade
Hope says she's never a saint
There aren't wings or a prayer
"We're heading nowhere
It's my cross to bear
Even horizons can fade
Hope says she's never estranged
There aren't wings or a prayer
If we're heading nowhere"
But you're comfortable
Just another decomposing alibi
Sing yourself to sleep
Count the days gone by
But outside of your walls passes real life
So here's a velvet covered brick
Death comes to us all too quick
Here's your chance to live, but I heard you say oh
It's my cross to bear
Even horizons can fade
Hope says she's never estranged
There aren't wings or a prayer
If we're heading nowhere"
You're still comfortable
Dissolving years like no one else before
And I said, lead the way you are
Lead your way through this
But fear and fail has made you its captive, it's passive
So here's a velvet covered brick
Death comes to us all too quick
Here's your chance to love, but I heard you scream, oh!
It's my cross to bear
Even horizons can fade
Hope says she's never estranged
There aren't wings or a prayer
If we're heading nowhere"
Hope says she's never a saint
There aren't wings or a prayer
It's my cross to bear
Even horizons can fade
Hope says she's never estranged
There aren't wings or a prayer
If we're heading nowhere"

Favorite song off Anberlin's final record. Pure energy and, in my opinion, just quintessential Anberlin sound.
It is such a shame though that this site changed so much (haven't been here for a while so this is probably old news) because these are not the lyrics I submitted. They run it through another site who's lyrics are wrong. Oh well, not going to come back cause of this. Bye SongMeanings.
