Weathervanes

from Shinra EP by Shinra

/

lyrics

We always build our weathervanes
When the rain has come and gone
A failure is a failure when
We're all soaked to the bone

The players always seem to care
When we're all doing well
They all turn to apologists
When there's nothing left to sell

The solid state we're moving into
All will crumble down
Detect, defect, infect our peers
Till they all sing your song

The sutured skin of what has come
What made us all undone
Prepare all of your weapons for
Your war has surely come

We always build our weathervanes
When the rain has come and gone
A failure is a failure when
We're all soaked to the bone

The players always seem to care
When we're all doing well
In disbelief of how this was
The tree from which you fell

We were all here as heroes and
The villains of your books
The proudness for our prowess was
The thing that we have shook

Our tragic mellow sense of fate
We thought will get us there
We all know what needs doing but
We've no clue of the when and where

Hold your gun up steady soon
Your mark is gonna move
Take apart the deadly
I'm just a nothing next to you

The things we've learned from things we've done
Will only make it worse
I sharpen up my tongue to stab the devil in your words
Oh, there's heaven in your words
Oh, the devil's in your words

Dead set and dressed to kill
There's heroes in him too
Sit down, shut up and play
This part was made for you

He plays it straight and blunt
But you still haven't got a clue
So he sharpens up his tongue to stab the heaven in your words

Oh, the devil's in your words
Oh, there's a heaven in your words

Oh, there's a heaven in your words

The freaks knock at your doorstep when
Your monster sank the boat
The precious velvet liquid spilled
When the Hydra bit the hull
Your steady hand don't show it but
This evil is in you
I sharpen up my tongue to stab the heaven in your words.
