Dance Gavin Dance » And I Told Them I Invented Times New Roman Lyrics

But now you know that I am cold
(Take me out now, I've dropped the mast down)
And now I am found
(Take me out now, I've dropped the mast down)

Duck down, then hide, behind the file cabinet
Duck down, then hide, behind the file cabinet, down
Without ever letting go I knew you'd gone
Duck down, then hide, behind the file cabinet
Duck down, then hide, behind the file cabinet, down
Without ever letting go I knew you'd gone astray
Stranded here in this cold atmosphere.
Waiting for the lifeless words to come from your mouth
Enduring every sound

This is not why the cast is hollow
Sending the rats to follow
Under the weight of all these eyes
Fry

But now you know that I am cold
(Take me out now, I've dropped the mast down)
And now I am found
(Take me out now, I've dropped the mast down)

I lay without understanding
I don't know why I feel this way
Oh lay down girl take my world
I know why I can't see your face
I've placed every mole there is to place on your wasted body
Oh, lay down girl and take my world
I know why I can't see your face

As the window left shattered now
We saw the withered body try to shout
You thought the price of your life was devout
And told us some things you can’t live without
And was this what was best for us
And was this what was best for us

Just let it show (Rest where you ought to be)
(Block out your misery)
I’ll bring you far (Wait for the call)
Well I’ll go for it (You left in the hallway)
I’ll beg you when you know (People they change)
(And I would still be ashamed)
I’ll beg you when it shows (To let the weight of the world)
Well I’ll go for it (Rest on your shoulders)
I don't believe the lies (I’ll fight until the war is over)
I don't believe the lies (I’ll fight until the war is over)
I’ll die for you (I’ll fight until the war is over)
(I’ll fight until the war is over)
I don't believe the lies (I’ll fight until the war is over)
I don't believe the lies (I’ll fight until the war is over)
It’s staged for you (I’ll fight until the war is over)
(I’ll fight until the war is over)

Left at my feet rests the soul of my brother
Vengeance will fall for the deeds of another

Dance Gavin Dance » Antlion Lyrics

[x2]
(Something's wrong, something's wrong)
There's a bomb in my face
Decorated in white lace
(Something's wrong, something's wrong)
When people they look at you
Do you think
Do you think of food?

Stretch yourself (Carving out some lungs with a stake)
as far as this can go at night (Brontosaurus tracks, relax)
(Carving out some lungs with a stake)
Follow when I row (Brontosaurus tracks, relax)

Hey, is that your lady?

[Chorus:]
She gave it willingly
Hey wait, I've got the parts (To fix your head)
(To fix your head)
(To fix…)
She gave it willingly
(Hey wait, I’ve got the parts) To fix your head
Fix your head
Fix your head

Wait right here
I'm going to explode
wait right here
I'm exploding
I've got to be in your car
I'm still shooting even par

Stretch yourself (Carving out some lungs with a stake)
as far as this can go at night (Brontosaurus tracks, relax)
(Carving out some lungs with a stake)
Follow when I row (Brontosaurus tracks, relax)

Hey, is that your lady?

[Chorus]

[x2]
(Something's wrong, something's wrong)
There's a bomb in my face
Decorated in white lace
(Something's wrong, something's wrong)
When people they look at you
Do you think
Do you think of food?

Dance Gavin Dance » Burning Down The Nicotine Armoire Lyrics

(and they would follow you home)
(until we wind up dead)
(checking your pulse)
(we'd wait across the street)
(under our tree)
(outside the front door)
(in autumns blind embrace)
(but you wouldn't let her anyway and we run)
(and we framed these moments)
(till one remaining cold calculated thought)
today your dream is dead
and when you wake it won't be there
today your dream is dead
and sew that smile up with threads
embrace this hope
and let it flow
you failed it
to shy to know your worth
hurt from insensitive behavior
you're scared of what this really is
and where this might lead us next
don't let me go I feel it
(it grabbed us by the throat)
(it grabbed us by the throat and we continue to breathe)
it's how I feel about love
that it's not worth it
(your license) i
n failure dreams fall
pushing nightmares over pavement
walking these streets like a victim
writing death threats in the wet cement
you say I will lie
and let me win this life
you won't regret my love
make you happy at your best
you'd noticed all of this meaningless
I destroy you
even through
the only things that I have left for your
condescending eyes looking at each others
white lies my heart ache is useless
so quickly we'll address the shadows running
from light
It'll take this breathe
denying what is left of us
if you could just wake up tonight
I'd be with you under the sky with you tonight

Dance Gavin Dance » It's Safe To Say You Dig The Back Seat Lyrics

[x2]
I threw her away on the second we met
I couldn't have lied, I tried
I was cashing a check
(The ink was smeared)
(The lines were drawn and scribbled unclear)
(A cancellation, it’s time to learn to fly)

Now that I've decided that you can’t be
Now that I've decided that you can’t be trusted
Now that I've decided that you can’t be
Now that I've decided that you can’t be trusted
Now that I've decided that you can’t be
Now that I've decided that you can’t be

One by one (Wasn't that fun)
This party dies (Fade away)
Late night phone calls that end in surprise

I can't believe you would give up your dignity (Fade away)
Just to take a ride with me
And how does it feel to be used
Climb in the back seat
Like luggage

[x2]
Whores don't trip
They bleed on the tapestry
Whores don't trip
They bleed at the bar

It’s your persistence that makes me sick
It’s not the sight of your face
And now I am so faint, caught up in just this way
I know that you can be more than this
This wasn't what I wanted
You said I sewed that dream alive
Climb farther into hate, is it this back seat making you itch?
Morals become something from a dream
This isn't the way to blow off steam
It’s all in your head

Give up this is making me sick
My patience is wearing thin
I will be leaving you now stay away for long

Drag his body down to the mill (Stationed wit, I believe will go there)
Cut the ice with counterfeit bills
I'll take my share (Stationed wit, I believe will go there)
Like lightning bolts that strike down in pairs (Stationed wit, I believe will go there)

This is all justified
This is all justified (Stationed wit, I believe will go there)
Step aside and watched the lie
This is all justified (Stationed wit, I believe will go there)
This is all justified (Stationed wit, I believe will go there)
Won’t heal in time (Stationed wit, I believe will go there)
This is all justified now

Now we’re all afraid to see why we can’t give it up
But now your shirt comes off
I need something more tonight than your word

Dance Gavin Dance » Lemon Meringue Tie Lyrics

Caught between one thick line
I can never see in the dark
Can you see at all?
Can you see at all?
Can you see at all?

[x2]
And now you go (Slip me the Vicodin)
This world is upside down
Night at the symphony
The bar is closing down (And now you go)
Slip me an antidote
Empty the cashbox out

[Chorus:]
And I don't know why
I don’t know why I fight for you this way
Fight for you this way
Fight for you this way
(Take the call and quickly lie about)
(Who you've been seeing lately)
(Then forget about it all)

Stage lights are burning up
Running faster to this spot
Staring at these faces
Torn from all these places
And I won’t go

Mace yourself, blame someone else
Fall face down, fluid leaking out your eyeballs
Mace yourself, blame someone else
It’s okay, no one will believe you
Mace yourself, blame someone else
Fall face down, fluid leaking out your eyeballs
Mace yourself, blame someone else
It’s okay, no one will believe you now

And I believed you’re not okay
And I won’t go far
And I believed you’re not okay

[Chorus]

Hey girl, you're the best
I'm a sucker, maybe I should fuck her now

Dance Gavin Dance » Open Your Eyes And Look North Lyrics

Sunrise wake up stand up look into red eyes
Stayed up all night thinking of reasons why I cant feel your skin
Is this plaguing your brain?
Couldn't brace yourself in the morphine hallway
lying on the ground with a heart as a ball and chain
message to the bird I know your wings will be fine
spread them on the floor, learn to heal with take time
close the hatch and lock us inside.
Now breath in wide
I'll forgive you later
Come on its time
Just stand aside
Watch this turn to dust I wont know when you've fallen
Now it all takes shape I wont go until you follow
I don't even get the movie
cold ice feels so soothing
I don't feel anything, stuck in the passing lane
break, wait, stop, back off the bitch
Block out the sound of the police beckoning
duck in the back and the lights will shut off again
ration the wine, laughing in revelry
caution I'm drugged, we'll here comes the symphony
You can go for it just don't ignore it
the rapist gives God a hug.

Dance Gavin Dance » She Makes Dirty Words Sound Pretty Lyrics

If you call me at all
Don't tell me that I'm ordinary
Cause I won't be passing you, please don't leave
And if you tell me you're listening to everything you read

Turn off this light, call my name
Don't talk, just ride
Who wouldn't let you be all about,
About me
I'm only trying to work this out

So, if you call me at all
Don't tell me that I'm ordinary
Cause I won't be passing you, please don't leave.
And if you tell me you're listening to everything you read
If you call me at all

Oh, I hear you breathing on the line
Oh baby girl, I'm not your type
I'll leave you hurting every night
So I won't be coming back
Who wouldn't let me be all alone
Who wouldn't let me be all alone
Who wouldn't let you scream ohh to a soft pillow

I'm such an animal
And baby honestly these teeth won't let you go

Don't tell me that I'm ordinary
Cause I won't be passing you, please don't leave
And if you tell me you're listening to everything you read
If you call me at all
Don't tell me that I'm ordinary
Cause I won't be passing you, please don't leave
And if you tell me you're listening to everything you read
If you call me at all
If you call me at all
If you call me at all
If you call me at all
If you call me at all

Dance Gavin Dance » Strawberry Andre Lyrics

Dressed in time to sip the wine
and cover your head
Nice of you to stay a few
and bleed on my bed
People flake, they wake and bake
Forget what you said
Obviously, not possibly
You didn't take your meds

And here we go climb
(I got a house with a pool and dog with a three car garage)
And now come home for all these ways to ways to go
(All the way down)

Cut out the signs come inside
where we lined up all these fashions
I’ll take your wine, just take this side
Into the light arms are wide only when you know

I fear I can’t believe its you (Nice tie, meet me concubine)
I fear I can’t believe its you (She’s not drunk its enthusiasm)
I fear I can’t believe its you (Nice tie, meet me concubine)
I fear (She’s not drunk its enthusiasm)
I fear I can’t believe its you (Nice tie, meet me concubine)
I fear I can’t believe its you (She’s not drunk its enthusiasm)
I fear I can’t believe its you (Lipstick, wet painted faces)
I fear (Of people with no regrets)

Slit her throat on the frying pan
You caught cold and forgot the plan
Turn the dial on the oven…
Until the skin has got that even tan
Slit her throat on the frying pan
You caught cold and forgot the plan
Turn the dial on the oven man
Until the skin has got that even tan

Dressed in time to sip the wine
and cover your head
Nice of you to stay a few
and bleed on my bed
People flake, they wake and bake
Forget what you said
Obviously, not possibly
You didn't take your meds

I fear I can’t believe its you (Nice tie, meet me concubine)
I fear I can’t believe its you (She’s not drunk its enthusiasm)
I fear I can’t believe its you (Nice tie, meet me concubine)
I fear (She’s not drunk its enthusiasm)
I fear I can’t believe its you (Nice tie, meet me concubine)
I fear I can’t believe its you (She’s not drunk its enthusiasm)
I fear I can’t believe its you (Lipstick, wet painted faces)
I fear (Of people with no regrets)

Oh what?
Come into the light, oh

Dance Gavin Dance » Surprise! I'm From Cuba, Everyone Has One Brain Lyrics

Hey girl, Ima eat your soul
I got this sword, dashing young and bold
lets collect, hearts on the way
plus two, to you, in the evil bay
so hey girl, what should we do
get clues, drink some, potions that are blue
well you know there just isn't time, I don't got the time
I don't got the time
Oh look up girl show me what you have to use
Oh look up girl
right now I'd be the bitch, but I left you, I left you in the ditch
bite the line, remove the words that follow
turn the key or in the mud you wallow
burning bushes may be cold as shoulder
flip the latch, go on and catch the boulder
This battles narrowing, hold off
I surrender, stay for me. One door
Can't fake now let go
Step back, let go
All of those who took the rode before you, they were possessed by the dark power
but you, you shall do this alone
as you walk through valley of the gorgonian tempest
the tri elemental black darkness was engulfing the sovereign lands
use the plus nine staff of the bobcat a voice said from above
defeat the demon of rathcorf and you will restore peace to the land
and lineage of your blood
step back, let go
One night I woke with all these hopes
Say one more line
Stay for me
With all these hopes
I believe there's meaning, no I believe there's nothing

Dance Gavin Dance » The Backwards Pumpkin Song Lyrics

[x2]
Sit down, call off the cavalry
I’m stealing the jewels
In a slow motion action replay
Bar fight, I invented chivalry
Notch in my bed post
Slow motion action replay

Now the fog is rolling in
Bringing us that much closer to a senseless end
Oh, please don't get up, I’ll get that for you
It’s selfish to say I believe when
I believe all these lines and long enough

[x2]
(Don't just lay on the ground son)
(Don't just drown in the fountain)
And I don't know you
I don’t know you
[x2]
(You got stuck preaching action)
(I fell down using tact son)
And I don't know you
I don’t know you

[Chorus:]
Bring back this fight tonight
All of these lies that I uphold (Don’t mind them they can’t elope)
For one good note (Leave them off of the great boat)
Bring back this fight tonight
All of these lies that I uphold (Don’t mind them they can’t elope)
For one false hope (Leave them off of the great boat)

One false hope

Go on and fix your tie
And just lead the line out
Needless to say I stumble, you play all night long
[x8]
Fix your tie and just lead the line out
Needless to say

[Chorus]

[x4]
Now you'll find, as I rewind
Now you'll find it’s not the point

One Love

Dance Gavin Dance » The Importance Of Cocaine Lyrics

this hits too close to home for me
and I don't need to be reminded of this pain
in dwelled so long on the possible changes
every step forward was a fall towards your demise

(the secret lives of wives)
and you beg me
please don't go tonight
and I beg you
please just come back down

to earth to build this trust
in which we have learned
to recreate

(the secret lives of wives)
and you beg me
please don't go tonight
and I beg you
please just come back down

your pride won't let you ride
and you said
when will you give it up
I won't fail
I'm not leaving
you and me
and this will fall
how will we get it back up

(and I thought this candid smile was worn down)
(lying to suite the mood shop for ties to hang myself with)

and you say this ended in arrogance
caused by my vanity
oh where will you be

well maybe you just looked too hard
or maybe I don't look enough
who will decide our fate

how will you align this with love
how will you end this with glory
oh and don't let this go
and don't let me go
just let this down

(stricken close to the heat)
(and I'm biting a line burn in wheat fields)
(shop for ties to hang myself with)

Dance Gavin Dance » The Robot Vs The Heroin Battle Of Vietnam Lyrics

(parts of victims organs)
(they will give you better style)
(attach the platemail to your insides)
blistered by the fire
(keep your victims confined)
caught in the threshold
(to meager)
man the armory
(rations)
dressed in our
(those in your basement)
last attire castle walls
(keep them confined to meager rations)
falling down around us all
(I stashed the platemail under the file cabinet)
and then when you go to sleep
I hope you wake up knowing
that you were meant for all of this
first, take time to breath you don't need me
you don't need anything its a wonder
how we're all under attack from everything always
and I'm willing to die to save your life
I know that you feel the same towards me
this is the last thing you'll remember
(we can't go wrong)
(Just hand me the best tongs)
(paid our dues and now we're gone)
(we can't go wrong just hand me the best tongs)
(we can't go wrong now)
you're saddened to see
everything that's come so far is falling
right into reach but you're still scared of this rain
(lance her eyes)
(and take one of those dream vacations)
(lance her eyes)
(and take one of those moonlit ocean walks)
blood stains my blade from taking hearts as ornaments
(wear parts of victims organs)
(they will give you better style)
(parts of victims organs just lance her eyes)

Dance Gavin Dance » The Robot With Human Hair Pt. 1 Lyrics

Your eyes are bleeding [x4]

And you wait for this world to come down
Because you know you're wrong
(Drenched in your blood)
(This crimes overdone)
(Step down and back away)
And you wait for this world to come down
Because you know you're wrong
(Drenched in your blood)
(This crimes overdone)
(Step down and back away)

And now you are so ashamed
To see that I have made it farther than you ever will
You speak of riding wings
Such talent wouldn't be entrusted to such little kids
(Step inside to candle lighting at the fireside)
(Take your time)
(Dinner wont be done in time)
(Here's some sex for all these whores)
(Just keep your distance)

And then I beg for him
To let you go, to let you go

And you wait for us to say
Why you're here and burning flesh
Is all we hope to accomplish
While you wait for us to say
Why you're here and struggling arms
Is all we hope to accomplish
(It seems like thievery)
(Doused in, doused in dye)
(Doused in, doused in dye)
(Here's some sex for all these whores)
(Just keep your distance)

Oh I'm so flattered
To see you copy
See you wish you could be just like us
(Stand in line roll call is where the liars died)
(Take your time the sinners will forget their lines)
(Doused in, doused in dye)
(Doused in dye polymorphic hemophilia is fine)

Well Tonight you burn for this
Red can, blue flame, I will
Watch you burn from every corner of this place
And I will see you squirm with pain and fate
Try to breathe with sulfur in your lungs
Try to breathe with smoke in your lungs
(Make your own damn bed)

And you wait for us to say
Why you're here and burning flesh
Is all we hope to accomplish
While you wait for us to say
Why you're here and struggling arms
Is all we hope to accomplish
(It seems like thievery)
(Doused in, doused in dye)
(Doused in, doused in dye)
(Here's some sex for all these whores)
(Just keep your distance)

(I've been doing back flips off the doorway to the cellar man)

Dance Gavin Dance » The Robot With Human Hair Pt. 2 Lyrics

It's the coming of man
And I forget when you went away
Like a kick to the face
Not winning the race
Lion, I've seen you from afar,
I've seen her in the car
Knowing that you deserve such more
Deserved to know you're free

(Leave I'm the director)
(Agree to the role of the pilot inspector)
(Breathe pilot inspector)
(Feed off the role of the radar detector)
(Leave I'm the director)
(Agree to the role of the pilot inspector)
(Breathe pilot inspector)
(Feed off the role of the radar detector)

Well then you said you can do this on your own
I'm sorry baby I can't aid you
(And then you say, hands down, right now, I'll let this go)
You well now it's up to god to save you

Save you
From all of those bruised, bruised and battered wounds
(Wave right with a gun in his hand wave right)
Can you taste this blood
Dripping sweeter than
And over your eyes
And I, and I fall to both knees
Not to beg for your forgiveness
But to hate the word and you speak

(Take a right off these cliffs)
(The ground is staring at your wounded weapons, wounded weapons)
And I can't believe that you're right
(You can bank the night on this its round)
(And glaring at your well)
(I get hyphy tell 'em I get hyphy)

And this is where it ends

Well then you said you can do this on your own
I'm sorry baby I can't aid you
(And then you say, hands down, right now, I'll let this go)
You well now it's up to god to save you

Save you, save you
Save you, save you

I can't believe these long words
Come from many national absurd
This is a line cut across
Hope, defeat, the line, the loss
I can never be this lone wolf
You can never see me across this earth
This will be a light that I run from
You thought you were so strong
You pleaded to never be wrong

(Brace yourself fasten belts)
Well now that you go
(Close the hatch flip the latch)
I sit here and wonder
(They're not dead speed ahead)
(Times have changed, it's like we've been)
(Trashing silos)
Well now that you go
(In the time bomb aisle)
I sit here and wonder
(Maybe they'll dodge the spill)
(Oil kills, sure it will)

I can't breathe the air
To reach for this light
I'll be forewarned
That these will never cry
And you can't breathe the air
Not leaving her to reach
The line, the work, the rope, the love
(Hide your daughter 'cause I'm coming over)
(You know I'm not lying about)
(Trashing silos in the time bomb aisle)

And I have seen such worse for you

It's a no I'm not coming back
It's a no I'm not coming back
It's a no I'm not coming back

And now you see the sky has turned black
Why do think everyone has turned back
It's cause he's gone

And now you see the sky has turned black
Why do think everyone has turned back
It's cause he's gone

And now you see the sky has turned black
Why do think everyone has turned back
It's cause he's gone

Dance Gavin Dance » Tidal Waves: Breakfast, Lunch And Dinner Lyrics

You roll your eyes
To say the least
I'm all alone and I feel
That you can't be a part of this

And now you run for
These empty lights
These empty waves
To fall away
Such empty lies that you would say
(Remove sprockets from the machine)
(Cross wires touch down)
(Lights out put out the fire)
(It's right now it's a white sound)
(It's a transcendental toothache)
(You'll be feeling for miles)
(Be just like a battery might try, might lie)
(While you're breaking the waves)
(Take a break for a second)
(Words don't write themselves)

Can you take this line
And how you run away from this place
Dry your eyes bleedings insane
(Wine, dine)
(Lye and wait for falling bombs)
(Chloride and salt intake)

And I feel such defeat
Such broken lies in your home
And I feel such pain
From those beautiful brown eyes
And you reach for those words
To wait in line
And I feel such deviance leaving you now
(Might try, might lie recent definitions)
(Two in the back)
(Like a bird in flight)
(Son try to fly a kite)
(Son take him by the hand)
(Push him in the sand)
Can you taste this blood

And how you run away from this place
Dry your eyes bleedings insane
(Wine, dine)
(Lye and wait for falling bombs)
(Chloride and salt intake)

[whispering]

And you wait
For this meaning to leave
And you take
So breathe in love
And make this feeling last
Now dry your eyes
(You might have done it, fund it)

Dance Gavin Dance » Turn Off The Lights I'm Watching Back To The Future Lyrics

Take the car, and turn it into our alibis
discard the body, pop some pills and you'll be find
Purge, then binge, restart and, insert the sutures
Turn off the lights, I'm watching back to the future
Before we go to far I wont let you take this light
Breath in all mistakes without coming clean
into hobbling faith. no one I wanna know
Cause we laughed at assimilation
Is this surreal tonight? Well go for all these wins
Is this surreal tonight ill go far and ill ride

Go on a brush me off. Brush me off brush me off
Waltzing right into the bank
They said that you have got a map of my insides
Purge, then binge, pop some pills and you'll be fine
Stay back from our lungs
Coming off the lie I will separate.
it only looks only looks so far well fill these holes
Now I am you
Remove the ribs if you can't lean sideways
I thought my words would have mass appeal
Costs your life, sly as always
I thought my words would have mass appeal
Cover your eyes
I've stabbed you in the back
you stop this, I can't
please stop me
right here
I wont do this again
I can't do this, I love you
for all of this shit
why, why, Help
