Cover art for Keep Watch For The Mines lyrics by Dashboard Confessional

Here are my corrections to the lyrics, and I'm 99.9% sure these are correct. I capitalized all the corrections.


Don't act like you've been silent I know how you spread that web of contradictions Wide, like so much cover FIRE

Keep watch for the mines. Keep watch for the mines.

Be careful who you wave that tongue at 'round here. I've seen smarter acts than yours GET disappeared. If you keep swinging that knife ALL over this town You are bound to get your OWN back stabbed

Keep watch for the mines The concealed dangers. The traps and the COILS of the wires With their sharp razors. The ditches and the trenches and the smiles Of the gravediggers. And if YOU'RE told "the answer needs no questioning," The answer is a lie.

Keep watch for the mines. Keep watch for the mines. Keep watch for the mines. (will they bleed everyone out?) (will they bleed everyone out?) Keep watch for the mines. (will they bleed everyone out before they die?) Keep watch for the mines. (will they bleed everyone out?) (will they bleed everyone out?) Keep watch for the mines. (will they bleed everyone out before they die?) Keep watch for the mines.

The concealed dangers, The traps and the COILS of the wires With their sharp razors. The ditches and the trenches and the smiles Of the gravediggers. And if YOU'RE told, "the answer needs no questioning" The answer is a lie.

Keep watch for the mines. Keep watch for the mines.
