Sufficiently Breathless

And that discussion was all true Until you decided to bust in with the old you Now you're judging them all through your gut And it sucks that you're stuck in with no shoes to walk in so There ain't nothing to soften the blow From that trailer burning coal to the rocks in the road But you expecting to follow in your pussy-foot-steps Which couldn't never work because you wouldn't look left And yes there was love in the air You should have took breaths You know you should've I said yes, there was love in the air You should've took breaths You know you could've And yes, im leaving to rest In the heart of your machine While its bleeding to death Until its carcass is clean Im feeding the rest of its still beating chest To the lesser of your subjects And they're bench pressing their grudges Repeating the reps and blending them in with their crutches And preaching their steps I step lightly, tonight, there might just be a jailbreak And more than likely its failsafe Full speed ahead till the sail breaks Take a deep breath Man that ocean there has a stale taste Of a centurys old war Where it was either all for one Or one on all fours Now, they were trained to kill all the silence Using nothing but silk gold and diamonds They used their skills to build roads to islands And i ain't gonna leave til the hills close their eyes So double knot the laces in your boots when you leave Cause troubles got the ace of every suit in its sleeve So quit shooting the breeze, and living lucrative dreams And just looping, just looping, just looping it seems Now, they were trained to kill all the silence Using nothing but silk gold and diamonds They used their skills to build roads to islands And i ain't gonna leave til the hills close their eyes
