lyrics

(Chorus)
Until we see the lines, of your
Hands that bare the crime of
Silently waiting, desperately shaking

With eyes grown dull, through all this
And ghostly white, through all this
We start to see these scares will remain permanent

Now as shadows fade
And our words loose cut
Oh we're so compulsive
We're so compulsive

Awkwardness sets in
It's the start of the end
Of all this
Colors gone to gray

And I'll write it down again
Until we know

I've been the violent
And shown my teeth again
And I've been the pacifist
And hid in, sleep for days
Avoiding the siren sound
All hands on deck

Gentlemen man your guns
It's gonna be a long, long night

(chorus)

I'll sew the holes shut
Through all this
Trace it all back
Through all this
But the gaps have seen
To much passing debris

I never thought these images could rip me apart at the seams
Yet you stayed claiming regret
Trust me honey
This is something that you'll never forget
This is something that you'll never forget

We're So Compulsive

Until we forget this
Know i was relentless
To hold this out

I never thought these images could rip me apart

The real Speed of Sound in Seawater is fast... relatively. This album is the same in that it goes by too fast and you are already putting it on repeat again. :p jason hankins
