God Send Conspirator

Coheed And Cambria · The Second Stage Turbine Blade (Re-Issued) [2005]

Hold in your last breath and stare

Assure me your metronome's left arm stick shift

Is stuck on the right words in your ear



Did you hear me loud and clear?

In sight and out of mind



Cautiously avoiding the cracks

Not to disturb

Your steadied arm straight line



The facts before a climb

A plan before a crime



Tired in the days that passed away

Sporadically arranged across the floor when you've got it made



Dear Mariah

The world's not big enough

For the both of us

When we live in the same town



Fight on fire

(fight on fire)

Burn my hands 'till I got nothing left

To count my numbers on



Your wise ass comments could cheer you up

The emotional disturbance

Relax

Deep breath

Sit back

From the space in which you stand



Here and in demand

Don't touch a fresh wound that bleeds

All over your carpets

The stains

The story book remains

And the page that states you've lied



Accept and then reply

Acknowledge the other guy

Tired in the days that passed away

Sporadically arranged across the floor when you've got it made



Dear Mariah

The world's not big enough

For the both of us

When we live in the same town



Fight on fire

(fight on fire)

Burn my hands 'till I got nothing left

To count my numbers on



Don't change your mind

When all's been won

Your words in time

With the loss that you'd let them go



Don't let them fall

If your grip's not strong

In time decide

With the words you let go



Don't let them fall

If your grip's not strong



Dear Mariah, come sleep in your own

Dear Mariah, come sleep in your own

Dear Mariah, come sleep in your own

Well dear Mariah, come sleep in your own



When eye meets eye be calm

We'll lie here alone

Locked the children in the floor



When eye meets eye be calm

We'll lie here alone

Locked the children in the floor



When eye meets eye be calm

Your dreams can't last forever

We'll lie here alone

Locked the children in the floor



The floor, whoa oh



Father figure wraps his footsteps

Be coming home to you



(who sat down here?)



Your dreams can't last forever



Locked the children in the floor



(who sat down here?)



When eye meets eye be calm

Your dreams can't last forever



We'll lie here alone

Locked the children in the floor



(who sat down here?)



When eye meets eye be calm

Your dreams can't last forever



We'll lie here alone

Locked the children here



(who sat down here?)



When eye meets eye be calm



Your dreams can't last forever



We'll lie here alone

Locked the children in the floor ::fades off::



::no music for appoximately six seconds::



::piano plays for approximately fourty-six seconds::



::no music for approximately fifty-six seconds::



::changes into acoustic::



The days we've worn insignias

The passing glance, unstoned

We've rendered ourselves powerless, unfortunate

The useless men, the fixed

And our every hour

It detonates

My courage goes unlooked

The ride home, through perilous

The land it goes

I will



You've been a bad boy

You broke all the rules



You've been a bad boy

You'll get yours paid in full



I Robot will never die

My robot will never die



You look

Down but far from out

And the paper reads you lose



I Robot will never kill



::no music for appoximately three seconds::



::tune changes::



A favor captain

A word with you

My system's gone and lost it's mind

My right eye has done shed a tear

My God I've left behind



Systems take me home and assemble me

Will I be terminated with you near

Alongside the others that I hold so close?

If I'm to be killed

Then when?

By whom?



You've been a bad boy

You broke all the rules



You've been a bad boy

You'll get yours paid in full



I Robot will never die

My robot will never die



You look

Down but far from out

And the paper reads you lose



I Robot will never die
